Moonlit Bond (Elements & Ancestors #2)

Release Date: August 31st

What’s a girl to do when she’s pulled from her bed in the middle of the night and put in a magical coma?

 My life is boring. Just the way I like it. I happily run my flower shop and keep to myself when I’m not hanging out with my closest friends. Until I’m ripped from my bed and held against my will.

Desperate to find a way home, I tap into powers I’ve never used before and lucky for me my good friend, Sierra Cruz, comes to my rescue.

All I want is to go back to my life.

Too bad that doesn’t seem possible. Because I’m the last remaining Warren witch, and I have an entire ancestral line of power stored inside me. Magic that someone wants to steal. Magic I can’t even use myself.

Even better, my powers have been going crazy since I met Owen Whitford. That can only mean one thing. Something I refuse to acknowledge. I need his help, even if I won’t admit it, to stop what’s coming.

As soon as we figure out what that is.

Book 2 is $ 2.99.

Moonlit Sight (Elements & Ancestors book #1)

Moonlit Sight Blurb: What’s a girl to do when she loses her job, her best friend goes missing, and she starts to see, hear and feel things that aren’t there?

Moonlight Grove is a small, peaceful town full of familiar faces. It’s perfect. Until my best friend, Lucy Warren, goes missing.

Enter Simon Caldwell.

The man is attractive. A bit mysterious, and a new face in my sleepy little town. He’s a paranormal investigator who’s come to Moonlight Grove looking into reports of the supernatural kind. It all sounds like good TV to me. When I begin experiencing things I can’t explain, he may be the only one who can help.

Maybe there’s more to Lucy than meets the eye. What if her disappearance is linked to all the crazy things happening?

With Simon’s help, I’m determined to find her and to ignore the way he makes me feel while I do it.

Moonlit Bond (Elements & Ancestors #2) by Britni Hill

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

I was super excited to get the next installment of the Warren Witches.  We get to continue from book 1 where we see Lucy getting taken.  We also get to see Owen for the first time annnnd yeah, he is kinda a dick initially.  LOL

I loved seeing Lucy and Owen steam up with their attraction but also seeing them try to figure out why people are after her.  Aurora was another great character, and I can’t wait for her book. But I loved reconnecting with Sierra and Simon who are still main characters in Lucy’s story.

We are learning more about Lucy, her familiars, her abilities, and why she is being targeted.  The ending was more of a cliffhanger for more to come like that last book.  I loved the final page where she is like Welp this is happening….It’s kinda how things seems to go for Lucy.  I know here rag tag team of friends will be there in book 3 to help her win this coming war that is set for their small town.

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

I was so ready to get the second book of Elements & Ancestors.  This book is about Lucy Warren. She is the last of the family witches. She was living life like anyone would until that night she was taken. We are taken on a journey to figure out what happened to her and who took her.

Lucy is back thanks to her BFF Sierra.  She is ready to have things go back to normal.  Lucy meets Owen who is buying some of her family property.  Her magic is starting to go wacky is it because of Owen or due to the reason she was take.

Lucy cannot stand Owen because let’s face it he was a jerk the first time they came face to face. After Lucy, Sierra, Simon, Aurora, and Owen begin to dig into what happened to Lucy Owen started to thaw. I loved seeing Lucy and Owen connection grow and how Lucy’s familiars calmed her and guided her to things.

The journey that we go on here is crazy I wanted to close my eyes at some points in the book.  Really the places we were drawn to and people we were introduced to had me cringing.  This one leaves us on a cliff and I’m so ready for the third book to see where we are headed next.

A clash of kingdoms. A war of hearts. A final chance.

The stars have aligned and it’s time for the Defenders of the Goddess to take back the throne of Paragon or be crushed under the evil empress’s heel.

Leena made a vow to the goddess and her people—and she doesn’t intend to break it. Still, there’s only so much temptation any woman can bear. Things in Ouros are coming to a head. War has come, and as much as Leena would like to avoid her feelings for Colin, she’s key to helping the resistance defend her land against Paragon.

#NewRelease #Mafia – Glitter & Greed (Brooklyn Brothers, #4) by Melanie Munton

Glitter & Greed (Brooklyn Brothers #4)

We are the Rossetti’s.
The exiled “sixth family” of the New York mafia. We’re the good guys.
People don’t fear us…much. They respect us.
The five of us? We’re the Brooklyn Brothers.
And we protect what’s ours.

Don’t ask me what made this girl different, what made her stand out. I’m not proud of it, but it wasn’t exactly my first ever lap dance. The last thing I expect is for the same woman I’ve been obsessing over for two months to waltz right into my gym.

Catalina “Cat” Vasquez is the most alluring, sensual woman I’ve ever met. She has secrets, and I want all of them. It’s the only way I can protect her. Because it seems I’m not the only one who’s been looking for her.

Just my luck that I would fall for a woman who has connections with the Mexican cartel. Who would have thought her stalker would be the same man who’s about to wage an all-out war on my turf?

I’m a fighter by nature.
I fight for what’s mine.
And I’m not about to lose to someone who wants to steal Cat away from me.
If he thinks his guns will save him from my fists, he came to the wrong city.

#Review – The Best Of Friends by Lucinda Berry

An unthinkable tragedy forever changes a group of teens and turns family against family in this edge-of-your-seat thriller that begs to be read in one sitting.
Best friends Lindsey, Kendra, and Dani endure every parent’s nightmare when a tragic accident befalls their teenage boys, leaving one dead, another in a coma, and a third too traumatized to speak.
Reeling from the worst night of their lives, the three mothers plunge into a desperate investigation of the bizarre incident. How could something so horrible happen in their wealthy Southern California suburb?
They soon discover that the accident was just the beginning, and troubling discoveries lead to chilling questions: Do they really know their children? Do they even know each other? As more secrets surface, a fog of doubt and suspicion threatens to poison their families, their friendships, and the whole community.
With the illusion of happiness and safety long gone, these women must now confront the hazards of heartbreak, the consequences of jealousy, and the dangers of living double lives.

I just…wow….I have no words. This is my 3rd book by Lucinda Berry and I’m obsessed. I thought I loved the other books I read by her but this one is my absolute favourite thus far.

It’s every parent’s worst nightmare and more.

This book follows three families. They were all friends since they were kids. Grew up in a small town together. Everyone knows everyone, kind of thing. Their kids played together, grew up together too, went to the same schools, played on the same teams, etc.

One night a horrible accident takes place and it’s a case of “Who did it and why??”

As the story unfolds, we of course find out that these families are harboring secrets outside of the horrible accident that took place.

An abusive husband.

A husband looking for a companion outside of his marriage and kids.

A wife who gave her kid meds without her husband knowing.

So many secrets.

So many lies.

I enjoyed the different perspectives and I also liked seeing the hidden drama outside of that accident. It showed how real they are. As the chapters went on, I found I was glued to the pages near the end, trying to figure out what was going on. I can’t even tell you how many times I gasped. The characters’ raw emotions bled onto the pages.

But when I read that last paragraph, I was like “Whaaaaat????” I did not see that coming. It’s one of the many things I love about Lucinda’s books. I can’t predict them. At all. And I’m not complaining in the least.

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Jagger was Bonnie’s first crush. Him moving away all those years ago left her heartbroken. Now they are all grown up and both living back in Grove Valley County. And thanks to the school secretary, they have no choice but to spend time together. This could be a good thing or a really bad thing.
I’m enjoying all of these short stories by Dove Daniels and I cannot wait to read the next one.

He wasn’t. He was worse.

He wasn’t just cold. He was dead inside.

He was also the only person who could keep me alive, if he didn’t kill me himself.
