MY REVIEW

Trevor hasn't had the greatest start in life, his only comfort being his 70-year-old neighbour, Mr T, who also happens to be his best friend, and the box (his garage where he restores people's trash). Trevor is a kid with a passion, seeking solace from his tumultous life. This book sounded like just the thing I needed to revitalise my passion for reading. Unfortunately, it wasn't the book for me.

I tried my hardest to love this book (giving it three attempts), but in the end, it just wasn't meant to be. I was so disappointed with the story that I gave up and refused to finish it. Honestly, the only characters I liked were Trevor and Mr T. This story should have been told solely from Trevor's POV. It would have made more of an impact on me. I have to say, while the author touched on a lot of relevant topics, I thought the content was too intense for teenagers at times.

It started off with much intrigue but quickly sizzled out and lost my interest. This is the end of the road for me with this series.

VERDICT

Award: Bronze

Rating: 1 out of 5 Stars

Book Blitz & Giveaway - Fool’s Paradise by Ophelia Bell

Fool’s Paradise

(Fate’s Fools, #3)

Author: Ophelia Bell

Publication Date: February 5th, 2019

Genre: Adult Paranormal Romance

Book Description:

Deva Rainsong never expected to find a soul mate, now she has two and is on the run from Fate. The elusive divine entity has it out for her and has begun terrorizing the bloodline Deva has sworn to protect. Yet the young chimera and her five lovers still have no idea what it is Fate wants, or why she is so important to it.

The only thing she is sure of is that she needs a complete soul in order to have a chance at standing up to Fate, but for that to happen, she needs her human lover on board.

Bodhi Dylan is still getting used to the unusual, yet intriguing customs of the higher races. He’s fallen head over heels for the beautiful dark-skinned chimera, but doubts he can measure up to the prowess of his higher races counterparts. Besides, he can’t quite wrap his head around how the whole “harem” thing works. Because if he agrees to Deva’s proposition, that’s exactly what he’ll be part of.

But when he learns his participation is the key to her happiness, he’ll have to make a choice. Agree and risk inviting more of Fate’s wrath, or deny her to keep her safe.

EXCERPT

Ignite (Midnight Fire Book 1)

Tristan finished reading his lines. "Hey, Juliet, it's your turn." He smirked. 

"Oh, right." Kira looked down at her book. "'O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art though Romeo.'" She tried to copy his apathetic style of reading and was secretly overjoyed when he laughed at her. 

"I get it, I sounded like an idiot." She just continued giving him the same silent treatment he had given her. "Okay, here's the truth, Kira. We can't talk here, and we shouldn't even be talking now, or maybe ever."

"You told me that already." Kira stopped reading.

"Yet, you seem to have trouble understanding it. English is your first language, right?" he teased. She rolled her eyes at the joke. "Like I said before, we just can't ever be."

"I understand what you're saying, but I also know you don't mean it." She leaned closer to him to prevent from being overheard.

"I do," Tristan said, forcing the point. 

"Oh really?" she tried to push him now. "It didn't seem that way when you kissed me."

"Kira, forget that ever happened, okay?"

"Or what? You don't scare me."

"I should," he said and shot Kira a lethal look. 

In that moment, Tristan's eyes changed color to the lightest blue she could imagine, and they held her captive. Not in the romantic way, but as though she were a prisoner held paralyzed. His gaze was ice cold, making her shiver as though she had been dropped in an arctic pool, and slowly his pupils began to expand, overtaking his irises. 

Fear tightened Kira's throat. She was scared, but more than that, she felt like he knew it and didn't care. Try as she might, she couldn't look away--she was completely stuck. Slowly, a feeling of warmth spread to her hands, burning hot, a sense of power that fought the dread tightening her stomach in knots.

Whipping her gaze to the floor, Kira breathed heavily as she finally broke Tristan's stare. Her fingertips still tingled with the heat that had coursed through her, allowing her to break his gaze. She leaned back against her chair, away from him, and touched her fingers to her cheek. 

They burned into her skin.

"What the heck was that?" she asked unsteadily, still not looking up. The heat emanating from her hand absorbed all of Kira's thoughts. 

"Me," Tristan said with the venom gone from his voice. She looked at him again, catching the unbearably sad expression in his eyes before he looked away. 

Or me? she thought, feeling the warmth finally ebb.

Cover Reveal - Book of the Dead by Nadine Nightingale

Book of the Dead

(Gods of Egypt, #2)
Author: Nadine Nightingale
Publication Date: February 7th, 2019
Genre: YA Paranormal

Book Description:

Nisha

They called me Angel of Death, but I am something else. Someone else. That is, if you believe the Egyptian desert god, Seth, who haunted my dreams since I can think. Sounds crazy, huh?

I, too, thought I was insane.

Broken beyond repair.

But—

When Seth’s followers—the Black Flags—invaded our annual Halloween ball and slaughtered half the town, my nightmares became reality. Those crazy bastards think I’m the reincarnation of Nebt-Het, the Egyptian goddess of protection, that I can help Seth get his immortality back. It’s why they pushed my cousin, Izzy, through a portal to the Underworld, knowing I had no choice but to follow her.

Now, I’m trapped in this godforsaken place, forced to conquer all twelve caverns, with Seth by my side.

Blaze

I was born into a Traveler clan. Grew up with tales of warriors and magic. I thought it was all bullshit. Fairytales. Until—

Nisha Blake, the girl of my dreams, caused an earth quake.

And an Egyptian God sent his crazy disciples to kill half the town.

I failed to protect Nisha. Couldn’t stop her from going after her cousin, from walking right into hell. Now, she’s in Seth’s world, bound to do what he wishes.

Our only chance, to get the girls back, is to find The Book of the Dead—some long lost magic tome, no one has seen or heard of in ages.

Wish us luck.

We’ll need it.

About the Author

Pam was born in Arkansas several decades ago. She’s not sure if that makes her a Southern Girl or if moving to Southern California when she was five revokes her Southern Girl card. She started writing later in life when she was challenged by a friend to create a book out of his story idea. Reaching the first 5,000 words was a milestone, but with time and hard work she managed to finish an entire book, much to her surprise. Since then, she’s written several novels, in several genres. Romance, middle grade and paranormal comprise most of her work. Pam has spent over 40 years working as a legal secretary at a law firm in Orange County, California. Aside from writing, she follows the stock market, buying, selling and trading stocks and options. In contrast to that, she loves trips to Las Vegas where she can spend many happy hours at the Pai Gow tables. She shares a condo with her very own My Cat From Hell TV star, Allie, who manages to exude just enough affection to make her scary feral ways tolerable.
