Review @Violet__Vaughn - Bad Bear by V. Vaughn (Bewitched by the Bear #3)





Bad Bear
A Shifters in Love Fun & Flirty Romance
Bewitched by the Bear #3

Goodreads blurb:  Dawn let the allure of a snow-covered world convince her to leave sunny Florida to step in for her mother as the new Veilleux clan witch, but the harsh reality of sub-zero temperatures in Maine is making her search for a way out. Until she meets Lance, a werebear with a smoldering-hot gaze that makes heat rush all the way to her toes. Suddenly, cuddling up by the fire with him makes her see winter in a new light. When the exit plan Dawn set in motion makes her mother come for a visit, black magic grabs the opportunity to bring back an evil villain, and Dawn has to fight for more than life with her soul mate Lance… she needs to save the clan.

My Thoughts - 4 out of 5 Unicorns - I really liked it!!!

***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!!  Yes, I received a review copy of this book, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book! 

This is the 3rd book in the Bewitched by the Bear series.  This is a novella length, and it is for adults only due to the steamy content.

This is Dawn’s story and her soul mate is Lance.  I really liked this story, and it had action.  Even though this book was the same length as the first two books, it felt shorter, like it was over too quick.  I don’t know why I feel this way, but I didn’t connect with this story like I did the first 2 stories.  I enjoyed the story, and I can’t wait to see what comes next because the series does feel like it is building towards something, but I have no idea what at this point.

I recommend to paranormal fans who like witches, magic, and bear shifters!

Review @ZoeChantebooks - Firefighter Phoenix by Zoe Chant (Fire & Rescue Shifters #7)





Firefighter Phoenix
Fire & Rescue Shifters #7
by Zoe Chant

Goodreads blurb:  From ashes, love will rise again...

Swan shifter Rose knows she doesn’t have a true mate. She isn’t the one for Ash, the Phoenix Eternal. She knows he can never be more than a friend, no matter how his dark eyes and hard body make her burn.

Everything Rose knows is wrong.

Twenty years ago, Ash destroyed everything to save his true love. But he’s never been able to walk away from her. He yearns to claim her at last...but the shadows of his past are stalking him again. If anyone discovers what Rose means to him, all his sacrifice will be for nothing...

Rose is his mate.

She just doesn’t remember.

Yet.

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!!

***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!!  No one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book!  I will buy this book because it is awesome, and I own most of Zoe’s books!

The cover is awesome and fits in with the series!

This is the 7th book in the series, and it is for adults only due to the steamy content and violence.  While not mandatory, I highly recommend reading the whole series in order because this amazing world is so much better with everything together!!

Okay this book made me cry several times!  I already loved both Ash and Rose from the previous books, and I always wondered what happened.  I never would have guessed this story!  So much back story, you feel like you never really knew either of them.  Tons of action and back guys galore, you do not want to miss out on this story especially if you have read all the others!  Zoe Chant has this amazing ability to make each book have the perfect mix of action, romance, and intrigue.  I don’t want to spoil anything, so you really need to read this!

I highly recommend to all Zoe Chant fans especially if you love this series and to any shifter fans especially if you love mythic shifters!  This was a phenomenal story!

Review @alexbracken - Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken (The Darkest Minds #2)





Never Fade
The Darkest Minds #2
by Alexandra Bracken

Goodreads blurb:  Ruby never asked for the abilities that almost cost her her life. Now she must call upon them on a daily basis, leading dangerous missions to bring down a corrupt government and breaking into the minds of her enemies. Other kids in the Children’s League call Ruby “Leader”, but she knows what she really is: a monster.

When Ruby is entrusted with an explosive secret, she must embark on her most dangerous mission yet: leaving the Children’s League behind. Crucial information about the disease that killed most of America’s children—and turned Ruby and the others who lived into feared and hated outcasts—has survived every attempt to destroy it. But the truth is only saved in one place: a flashdrive in the hands of Liam Stewart, the boy Ruby once believed was her future—and who now wouldn’t recognize her.

As Ruby sets out across a desperate, lawless country to find Liam—and answers about the catastrophe that has ripped both her life and America apart—she is torn between old friends and the promise she made to serve the League. Ruby will do anything to protect the people she loves. But what if winning the war means losing herself?

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!!

***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!!  I bought the whole series in paperback, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book! 

The new cover is much better in my opinion.  It grabs my attention better.

This is the 2nd book in the series, and it is a YA Dystopia.  The kids are not treated well in this series…think Hunger Games and Maze Runner series.  I also highly recommend reading the series in order to know the characters and world more intensely.

This series is a very compelling and page turning read.  I get pulled in to it and must know what happens.  I definitely cry while reading this series as both a parent and a teacher because it breaks my heart.  I love Ruby’s fierce desire to protect everyone, and how hard she works to not take others control away unless she feels it is the only way to protect those she loves.  She makes some new friends in Vida, Jude, and Nico.  Of course there are some rough times with some not very nice people, but she did find a few angels who helped along the way.  She is torn between her old friends and her new friends.  This is action packed, and I enjoyed reading this book.  I can’t wait to see what happens next, but I want them all to be safe.

I highly recommend to any fans of Hunger Games and Maze Runner or Lord of the Flies because that’s what this series feels like….you never know what will happen next!

Review @ZoeChantebooks - The Dragon Marshal's Treasure by Zoe Chant





The Dragon Marshal's Treasure
by Zoe Chant

Goodreads blurb:  He was supposed to seize her assets. Instead, she's stolen his heart…

Curvy, practical Jillian has spent her life trying to distance herself from her father. But now he's disappeared, leaving her saddled with his stolen millions, the world's most terrifying nutcracker collection, and a US Marshal knocking on her door. A US Marshal with a strange courtly manner and deep green eyes that make Jillian wish he'd strip away more than just her unwanted inheritance…

As a dragon shifter from a reclusive, traditional clan, US Marshal Theo St. Vincent is baffled by many things in the outside world. Vending machines. Fairy tales where knights aren't vicious monsters. Not ravishing your one true mate the instant you lay eyes on her...

Theo's old-fashioned charm and rock-hard body soon have Jillian fully complying with his investigation. But the US Marshals aren't the only ones interested in her father's ill-gotten gains. With Jillian in danger, Theo has to protect his mate…even if it means breaking all the rules.

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!!

***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!!  Yes, I received a review copy of this book, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book!  I buy all of Zoe Chant’s books because I love her HEAs and her style of writing!  I do own this book!

The cover is wow!  I liked it!

I don’t think this is a series, so currently this book is on its own.  It is for adults only due to the steamy content.

This was another exciting adventure.  Jillian has made her own way in the world away from her dad.  She only comes back to help her step mom when her dad gets in trouble and disappears.  They had no idea what he was doing to people or where he is.  They are trying to help law enforcement wherever they can including the scary nutcrackers.  Jillian and Theo only have eyes for each other, but he needs to tell her about himself.  Trouble ensues, and they have to back each other up.  Lots of twists and turns in this book.  It was a great read that I couldn’t put down!

I highly recommend to any shifter fan who loves HEAs with drama and action!  I can’t wait to see what Zoe comes up with next!
