Trailer & Book Giveaway for Alexandra Adornetto’s “Hades”

By 7 Comments

I read Halo a year ago, and even though it was YA, I still enjoyed it. An easy read, and a nice romantic connection. Hades is book#2, and has just been released! Wanna win a copy?

More about ‘HADES’:

“Heaven Help Her.

Bethany Church is an angel sent to Earth to keep dark forces at bay. Falling in love was never part of her mission, but the bond between Beth and her mortal boyfriend, Xavier Woods, is undeniably strong. But even Xavier?s love, and the care of her archangel siblings, Gabriel and Ivy, can?t keep Beth from being tricked into a motorcycle ride that ends up in Hell. There, the demon Jake Thorn bargains for Beth?s release back to Earth. But what he asks of her will destroy her, and quite possibly, her loved ones, as well.” read more

Book Review – Providence by Jamie McGuire

By 4 Comments

Providence
A paranormal romance book that gave me quite a few palpitations! It certainly didn’t lack in the love triangle angst that I love so much. I had moments of absolute desperation for the heroine, felt her heartache and her confusion. I couldn’t help but fluctuate between what “team” I was on, in this one, because both “heroes” were so worthy of my love.. I mean Nina’s love 😉 .

Nina is from a wealthy family. Her father is the CEO of his own huge corporation, having much power and respect. Despite his powerful position in life, he adores and dotes on his daughter Nina, and she adores him back. A car crash however, ends his life, and her world turns upside down. Not only is she having to deal with her incredible grief over his loss and her emotionally distant mother, she soon realizes that she didn’t really know her father at all. read more
