She doesn’t believe she has a soul.
She believes it was stolen from her when that bastard turned her into the creature she is now.
But little does she know, she does. What is there isn’t dark and twisted, defiled by the lust for blood. She is pure and loving, with a body and attitude that arouses me every moment of the day. And I will move universes and defy my father and mother to make her into something I’m worthy of loving, someone that will stay by my side through eternity.
I will fight the forces of the gods to make her mine. I won’t stop until she belongs to me forever. And how am I, just a mere fighter, going to do that?
Because, baby, I’m a god.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

HOLY MOLY this book knocked my socks off!!! Paranormal meets the Greek Gods?? Uhm YES PLEASE!!! When Tricia told me about this book, I was super excited. When I finally got the book, I was ecstatic. I can’t say enough how much I loved reading this book. But remembering all the Gods from college, I was like “OMG Yes I remember them.”

Juliet is a typical vampire looking to score some blood. Well our little vampire is a little more than usual because she actually cares about who she drains dry. She strolls into the underground MMA fight looking for meal, when she sees the most beautiful and sexy man EVAH!! She is all “Game on” with this one. She knows he might be a bit more of a challenge, but she is ready for it. She is stunned when all of a sudden, the man of hour is right there at the bar hitting on her …along with others things he does with her at the bar *snickers*

Ares, the God of War, is mesmerized by the vampire at the club. He knows she will be able to “handle his appetites” so he dives into a night of fun with the little minx. He is loving spending time with her because she challenges him at every turn and he loves it. He can’t get enough of her telling HIM, the God of War, No!! I love the banter the two have because they cracked me up a lot.
When Ares and Juliet discover there are serious emotions at play, they both freak. The last person Ares loves was Aphrodite and we all know how wonderful their relationship turned out….not good if you weren’t aware. The last person who Juliet loved broke her heart and turned her into the creature she is now. Love and Trust is not something these two people can willingly accept from others.

His family hates her and wants her dead. His ex has become a bit too clingy and needy…ya know I don’t want you but I don’t want anyone else to have you type of chick *eye roll*….her maker is all about claiming what is his again after hundreds of years, PLUS the vampire hunter is closing in on Juliet. There is so much action and so many plot twists you never see what will happen next!! I seriously hope we get another book really soon and I am BEGGING for it to be Aletha because I just loved her so hard but Pan would be pretty funny to see which nymph captures his heart.

Tricia Andersen lives in Iowa with her husband and her three children. She graduated from the University of Iowa with a Bachelor of Arts in English and from Kirkwood Community College with an Associate of Arts degree in Communications Media/Public Relations.

Four Rounds by Jillian Jacobs
I received this book from the author.
I read the first chapter and was messaging Jillian how hilarious this book is. Seriously I snort laughed so many times in this book!
Cricket is so damn funny and off the wall, but I loved her so much. Once you get past her wild and crazy side you see a woman who wants to be loved for her but is so scared of being loved. Her life hasn’t been great, and she hides it well. However, her insane attraction to her friend’s brother changes that for her in an instant.
Theo is a total sick in the mud. He goes boxing with his sister and takes notice of the wild instructor immediately. When she just shoves her way into his life, he is not happy but also not unhappy about it. The only issue is…he can’t get involved with her given he is investigating her father’s dirty dealings.
The dates the two go on…had me in stitches!! I mean shut up!! I couldn’t stop giggling while reading!! The story of Theo’s investigation takes on the majority of the end of the story but seeing them try to be together through it all was well worth the read.
Seriously I would love to read a book about Jessica, Theo’s sister, because this insane family needs more wild in their lives.

In the spring of 2013, Jillian Jacobs changed her career path and became a romance writer. She’s a Tea Guzzler, Polish Pottery Hoarder, and lover of all things Moose.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I received this book for an honest review.

Teresa! I Love your face off!! Woman you can write and weave an amazing storyline. Every story gets tighter and better. Every plot line gets more involved, more developed and more awesomer??? Is awesomer a word? It is to me.

So this book is kind of a Slade and Jill book 2….Yes they got their HEA but Jill is sick…as are all the man-made half breeds. So our dashing and delicious alpha male hottie doctor is trying to save all the half breeds he cares about…Pam, Adam and his mate, Jill. Jill and Slade are set to get married in 3 weeks but with Jill’s sickness and unknown future, she wants it sooner but she also wants to share her day with her sisters Nicole, Tessa Aka Me since Jared is my mate, Lana, Pam and Angelina.

The story is actually a great blending of stuff from their last book into this book. We get to see Jill’s family again. We get to see Jax and meet some of his friends…annnnd yum is all I can say. While this book is happening we are hanging with the Lee County Shifters plus meeting a new EX-Warrior named Blaze and boy oh boy can I not wait for his book….I-Che-MAMA. We are also getting a little bit more information on Mika, Jax’s brother. What I am REALLY excited about is Jax admitting his FEELINGS to himself about a certain sister…EEEEP!! I cannot wait for their story!!!

This book has me cracking up…I cant believe it was STEVE over SID plus it had me sobbing……yeah friends SOBBING full ugly cry at times……

Teresa Gabelman is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the ‘Protectors Series’. When not writing about sexy alpha vampires and the women who drive them crazy she can be found on a lake with a fishing pole/Kindle, at a MMA event or spending a fun evening with family.

Being a full-time writer has allowed Teresa to connect more with readers which is what she loves most about writing. If you find the time she would love to hear from you!

Review by: Twinsie Melinda

I purchased this book.

I have purchased a few of Roxie Ray’s books and so far, I have enjoyed each one. This is a cute Christmas story about a widowed bear shifter dad and his two daughters who meet a young boy and his mom who have not had an easy life.

How can you not fall in love with Remy who is caring, understanding and 100% doting father of his 2 girls and Jeannie who is trying to balance her son’s medical bills, illness and give him the same experiences any child would want.  Remy’s girls Addy and Eva are amazing they are so understanding and compassionate when it comes to Max.

 I enjoyed this book so much it was fun with silly moments between the kids and their parents. There were romantic moments between Remy and Jeannie even if the kids and Remy’s sister-in-law gave them a little nudge in that direction. I have to say hearing Remy and his late wife Zara story and Max and Jeannie was heart breaking. The way Remy’s family accepts Jeannie and Max with open arms made my heart swell. I loved the winter back drop to most of this story and even seeing them incorporate Christmas in July was magical.  This was a wonderful read to get me in the Christmas spirit.

Roxie Ray is a collaborative group of writer friends passionate about crafting unforgettable Paranormal and Alien Romance. Together, they weave steamy, heart-pounding stories filled with captivating characters, sizzling chemistry, and plots that keep you hooked from start to finish. They pour their love for the genre into every page, aiming to deliver the perfect blend of heat and storytelling magic.

A #1 New York Times Best Seller, Ann Rule’s The Stranger Beside Me gives us a unique perspective into the hidden world of Ted Bundy. Rule gives a chilling and intimate description of her time at a crisis hotline alongside her co-worker, the then charming, sensitive and trustworthy Ted Bundy, and the devastating realization that he was a brutal killer hiding in plain sight. After multiple arrests and an escape from jail, Bundy would later confess to the murders of at least thirty-six women and soon after was executed for three cases. Rule, a certified instructor for police training seminars, prosecutors and forensic science organizations, delves into how this savage killer — a man she thought she knew — could have fooled so many, including a professional like herself.

Now includes updated afterword written by Leslie Rule, Ann Rule’s daughter.

“The most fascinating killer in modern American history…Ann Rule has an extraordinary angle that makes The Stranger Beside Me as dramatic and chilling as a bedroom window shattering at midnight.” – New York Times

“As dramatic and chilling as a bedroom window shattering at midnight.” — The New York Times” – From the Publisher

“A shattering story…carefully investigated, written with compassion but also with professional objectivity.” – Seattle Times

“Overwhelming.” – Houston Post

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Wow! This was a compelling first hand account from somone who may have known Ted Bundy better than anyone. Her name was Ann Rule and she would later learn she was best friends with a serial killer. They worked together at a call center, clicked and were instant best friends. He was so kind to her, unlike how he treated his victims. For some reason he deemed her safe and would continue to try and keep her safe throughout their time knowing one another. To be Ann, a young writer looking for their big break when the story of a lifetime falls right in your lap. The moral delima she must have faced as the dots began to connect. I thank Ann for sharing her story. I am a true crime junkie and when I learned through a podcast about this book, I had to read it. I ended up listening to the audiobook narrated by the author this morning. It was an intimate telling of their story in her words with correspondence from him. I am so happy she decided to narrated it because I feel like she is the only person capable of telling this story. I know she wrote the book but I appreciate that she also voiced the audio version. She outlived Ed by well over 20 years,  after listening to this book I cannot even imagine all of the what ifs she lived with until her passing.
