Title: Blackbird
Author: Molly McAdams
Series: A Redemption Novel
Genre: Romantic Suspense

“Molly takes her writing game to a whole different level—one that most authors rarely see.” – #1 New York Times bestselling author, Rachel Van Dyken

From New York Times bestselling author Molly McAdams comes a powerhouse romantic suspense that will have you questioning your morals and second guessing your view on love.

I live in a world few know exist. I’ve trained for this. I know what to say, what to do, and how to act. I’ve perfected the lethal calm required for this life.

Now it’s time to buy my first girl. But all it takes is one look at the brave girl who starts singing mid-auction for that calm to slip.

Briar Chapman is going to be the death of me, and I don’t care. I’ll take every day with her until that death comes, and I’ll welcome it when it does.

On the outside, Lucas Holt is what nightmares are made of. A man cloaked in darkness, with sin-filled eyes and an enticing grin. A devil so devastatingly beautiful and cruel that his very presence instills fear.

But beneath his terrifying, ever-calm exterior is an affectionate man haunted by a past that refuses to stay buried. And Lucas looks at me as though he’s finally found the only person who can make it all go away.

We’re a battle of the brightest day and the darkest night—and I want to lie in the wake of our war.

She closed the distance between us, each step slow and calculated. Once she was close enough, I slid one hand around her waist and the other around the back of her neck, using her hair to tilt her head back so I could study those eyes that captivated me.

“I hate that you have so much money that you buy women. I hate that you bought me at all, but mostly that you bought me because I started singing. I hate the circumstances that brought me to you, but I love you and am thankful I’m here with you all the same.”

My chest ached and filled with warmth. I wanted to kiss her and thank her for trusting me with her past. I wanted to erase every bad memory and replace them with ones of us now, but she didn’t realize what she’d just said . . .

As much as I wanted what she was saying to be true, it wasn’t, and it never would be. It couldn’t.

“You don’t,” I said thickly, forcing the words out through the tightness in my throat.

Confusion covered her face and her brows drew together. “I don’t what?”

“You don’t love me.”

I felt the shock that went through her body, but she didn’t try to pull away from me. Instead, she gripped my shirt in her hands like she was pleading with me in her touch alone.

“Lucas . . .”

My eyes slid shut, and I released a slow, weighted breath. “You don’t, Briar.”

“I know you think you don’t know how to love someone, but you do, you have been. You know what love is, and I have never been more aware of how loved I am by someone than I am by you.”

I ground my jaw and finally looked at her again. Instead of disagreeing with her, I said, “You can’t love me, because you don’t know me.”

I hated the hurt in her eyes. I hated that I was putting it there. I hated everything I was, hated that I would never be enough for the girl I didn’t know how to let go of. Couldn’t let go of.

“Yes, I do,” she choked out. “I’ve seen it, I’ve felt it, I’ve experienced your darkness and your monsters, and I’m still here. Haven’t I proven myself yet? Haven’t I proven I am not going anywhere? That you can’t make me run?” Her gripping hands flattened and moved up to curve around my neck. “I knew to fall in love with you I had to fall in love with the devil, too. I am not as naïve as you think I am.”

“But you have no idea exactly how heartless your devil is,” I said darkly.

“Then let me see—”

“I won’t let you into that part of my world,” I said on a growl. Just the thought of her being in a situation to see me like that—to see that part of my world—chilled me in a way that made me feel sick. “All of this will change the minute you see it. Trust me when I say you’ll never be able to look at me the same, and I won’t be able to live with myself if that day ever comes.”

“You can’t know that,” she argued, her words still sounding like a plea.

“Think of your worst memories with me, Blackbird,” I ordered gently. “Think of what I told you about the shootout with my brothers. Think about what William did to you. Now try to grasp that all of that is nothing compared to what I have done, and what I do, without feeling a thing.”

I waited for it to sink in, and after a few moments, it did. And there was that look in her eyes I’d come to dread and hate—fear and uncertainty. But I could still see her love for me.

Unfailing and undeserving.

“Didn’t you hear me the first time?” she finally asked as tears filled her eyes. “The darkest part of your soul terrifies me, but, Lucas, I’m not going anywhere.”

Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband, daughter, and fur babies. When she’s not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm … or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren’t really happening.

(18+) For Mature Audiences Only

Goodreads

I love shifters and this is one series that I am enjoying. The story line and plot is unique and wonderfully written. I like the alpha’s and their unique dynamic. I wasn’t sure in the beginning of the series how I felt about Valen or if I though he would be a perfect Alpha let alone a mate for Layla but WOW has he changed my mind over the course of the series.

The way the Alpha’s united to protect Layla, show their concern and not giving up on her was heartwarming. The heart and determination Layla shows when she is captured by a rival clan is beyond what I expected she could handle or due but she is strong willed and deserving of her status.

Do not let the size of this book concern you because this is full of suspense, sexy scenes, and the wonderful bond of love between the alpha’s and their keeper will keep you turning the pages.  I cannot wait for more of this series. As always Red Phoenix has a true talent of taking me on wonderful journeys.

Haunted by a past he’s struggling to forget, Blaze once again finds himself a VC Warrior—something he swore would never happen. Confident he could easily walk away again, his connection to a certain redhead makes that decision harder than he imagined.

Trying to fit into the Warrior world, Katrina holds a secret that could ruin the new life she is fighting to fit into. And having feelings for a certain Warrior does not make things any easier.

As Blaze’s past catches up to him and Katrina’s secret is exposed, they discover a deep bond that neither can fight. It soon becomes clear that a past can be put to rest, but secrets can be deadly.

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

Oh Teresa…how do you do it!!  You hit every single book out of the park. Each book brings it and each book delivers!!  Each book makes you really HATE the Villain and fall madly in love with the Warrior….but don’t tell Jared ok.  He gets all jealous when he sees me checking out his brothers.  Alpha’s what can you do?  Just love ‘em extra hard I guess.

Blaze and Katrina.  They steamed up the last book with their agonizing chemistry.  I mean come on people!  WE all SAW the attraction.  At the end of the last book, when he brought her the dog…sigh…..so I was so ready for this book.  I was so ready to see them and wonder who would be fighting it harder…..WELL OF COURSE the Warrior was!!

Blaze has a past and he won’t face it.  This past caused Caroline and Jax some issues with Blaze because his past was haunting Caroline.  The whole “Talking to the dead” can really wear on a girl!!

Katrina was hiding some really big secrets!!  LIKE HUGE!!!!  We find out her story and man Teresa you really out did yourself with the bad guy.  I felt dirty every scene he was in.  Then finding out what Katrina saw and what she has to endure while under her “fathers” care…shivers….

The chemistry between the two is super hawt.  When they finally get started Katrina says the 3 dreaded words that every commitment phobic man dreads and he freaks.  So she makes her peace with them not being together but good old Jared lights her fire again when he shares some news in regard to Blaze and his feelings toward her.  I love Jared..sigh….yes babe I am typing about you..rolls eyes!!

Blaze must face his face in past order to make things right with Katrina all while hiding her from her father and her past.  Katrina must face her father and her past in order to save her possible future with Blaze.

Each book, Steve takes the cake for cracking jokes.  Each book Sid and Jared rile up the newest warrior to fall.  Each book we meet a new hottie and Ronan is nooooo slouch to think about….again relax Jared….stop reading over my shoulder already…it’s a joke….SHESH!!  Warriors.  You can’t live with them and you can’t live without them!!

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

Hi! I’m Drew Elyse.
I’m a proud nerd. My obsessions include Disney, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Sherlock, Firefly, X-Men, and I’m realizing now I should stop this list because it will go on for a very long time.
Literature and music are my passions, and I studied both in college.
I’m a crazy hockey fan–GO Blackhawks!
I’m proud to be from Sweet Home Chicago.
As for my books, I currently write contemporary romance. Mostly, that’s focusing on the Savage Disciples MC. I just love some hot, alpha, dirty-talking bikers.

When and Why did you start to write?

I’ve always written. Even when I was a kid, I wrote (and illustrated, though I stopped doing that part because I cannot draw) books. Being an author was one of the only jobs I ever considered from the time I was old enough to understand what a job was. I never wanted to be a teacher or a firefighter. I wanted to write.
I guess the “why” of my writing is that I can’t help it. Stories and characters just come to me. I could never write them down, but it would drive me crazy.

What authors do you always read or suggest to others?

I want to be helpful here, but I’m going to be a bad person and skip this question because there are so many amazing names that come to mind that I would never stop!

What is the most surprising thing you have found out with the writing process?

The most surprising thing for me over the years had been realizing that other people’s minds aren’t constantly occupied by fictional people. Since it’s always been something I’ve done, the craziness of it doesn’t really stand out to me. Writing has been so much a part of who I am for as far back as I can remember. So, when people say things like “I just don’t know how you come up with this?” or they ask where I got an idea or something similar. For me, this is always a bizarre moment because I don’t DO anything. The ideas, the scenes, the characters just show up in my head. In a lot of ways, writing isn’t really a process for me at all. The idea shows up in my head one day, and I write it down. It’s not always an easy to get the words just right, but it’s kind of simple at its core.

What are you working on now?

Right now, I’m making sure Ignite (Savage Disciples MC #4) is all ready to be released into the world. I’m also working on the next book in the series, Daz’s Story (title TBA).
As always, I have a variety of other projects in the works in the background, but I like to keep those quiet until I have something to announce.

When writing are you a pantser or plotter?

Panster. All day, every day. I don’t plot. I’ve attempted it once or twice to see if it would be helpful, and I ended up throwing the whole the away. I just start with whatever scene or concept came to me, fully develop the characters in my head until I know them as well as my best friend (who I really do know just freakishly well), then I start writing right at the beginning of their story. I write in order all the way through, so the plot develops as I get there.

Engage (Savage Disciples MC #3) Review HERE

Nicki is becoming a better reporter, so much so that her boss Neal leans on her more and more to get the good stuff. So when a rash of robberies hits the downtown Winchester area, Nicki is reporting the damage…and probably getting a little too close for the bad guys’ comfort. As if that weren’t enough, Nicki finds herself in a full-fledged love triangle between Jesse and Sean…and she can’t bear to choose between them.

Nicki Sosebee is a strong woman who’s not afraid to go after what she wants, whether it’s a man or a story. She’s tough and her mouth shows it. She’s a free spirit and feels no need to apologize for who she is or what she believes in. RIGHT NOW is #4 in the Nicki Sosebee series.

Warning: Not for the faint of heart! This book contains explicit sex and naughty language. Proceed with caution…if you dare.

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

Oh my goodness this series is so addictive between waiting to find out what Nicki’s next assignment will be and what obstacles she will have to overcome and figuring out this love triangle between her, Jessie and Sean I am HOOKED!

Jessie and Nicki have broken up now Nicki is trying to get her mind off Jessie as well as Sean. She finds it hard to resist Matt the 18 year old busboy. Matt makes Nicki feel young again taking her mind off her 30^th birthday, Jessie and Sean.  She also received her next assignment the town has been seeing several stores being broken into but not much being stolen.

I know who I want Nicki with but I loved the ending of this one. The twist was just great. I need to start the next one to see where Nicki leads me next.

Jade C. Jamison was born and raised in Colorado and has decided she likes it enough to stay forever. Jade’s day job is teaching Creative Writing, but teaching doesn’t stop her from doing a little writing herself.

Unfortunately, there’s no one genre that quite fits her writing. Her work has been labeled romance, erotica, suspense, and women’s fiction, and the latter is probably the safest and closest description. But you’ll see that her writing doesn’t quite fit any of those genres.

You’ll have to discover Jade’s writing for yourself to decide if you like it.

Rachel Donahue’s dream job as a financial advisor makes her all work and no play.  In fact, her only luxury is her weekly visit to the spa.  But her regular masseuse is on leave due to a skiing accident and his stand in, a guy who goes by the moniker “Spike,” is off-the-charts hot, exuding the most irresistibly sexy vibes Rachel’s ever been drawn to—reminding her that she’s a woman with needs.  How the hell can she relax like she’s supposed to when he’ll be touching her bare flesh?

She can’t…and he knows it.

One thing leads to another and she experiences her first “happy ending” massage.  She’s horrified and embarrassed, and her only salvation is that he’s not her usual masseuse.  She decides she won’t go back to the spa until her regular guy returns.  Except the next day at work, Rachel’s last appointment of the morning is a new client, Sergio Romano…a guy whose career name happens to be Spike Steel.  And the temperature has only just begun to rise…

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

I-Che-Mama…this book!!!  Ok so if you haven’t read Finger Bang my first question is WHY!!  But anyway, we meet Rachel in there.  She is a riot and so I was super excited to read her surprise book from Jade.  Rachel is Blaze’s sister if you HAVE read Finger Bang.

SO Rachel is Miss Organized and On-Track-For-Success.  She is busy with her career to really notice men or give them the time of day.  When a fluke sends her scheduled life into chaos she is so confused at Spike/Sergio’s appearance into her life.

Sergio/Spike is stunned by Rachel’s intelligence and sexuality.  She is sweet but smart.  She is feisty but a soft gushy pile of goo with him.  He was excited to meet her but shocked when he met her the night before their business meeting.

This book is HAWT…I mean Fan yourself hawt from the first opening scene all the way through until the finale page.  The chemistry is OF THE CHARTS!!  I mean Jade writes steamy stuff but this might just be her steamiest yet!!!  I gotta say, I loved this serial but to be honest, I would have LOVED more from them because they have a great story line.  I loved the banter and I especially loved Rachel trying to deny their chemistry.

For years, Jade C. Jamison tried really hard to write what she thought was more “literary” fiction, but she found herself compelled to write what you read by her today–sometimes gritty, raw, realistic stories and other times humorous, light tales–but most of the stories she writes revolve around relationships and characters finding their way through life. While she doesn’t confine herself to just one genre, nor is there a nice neat label for what she writes, most of her work could be called erotic romance. Her main writing passions include rock star romance, romantic comedy, and romantic suspense.

She lives in Colorado with her husband and four children.
