What I Wore to Save the World
Hey Maryse’s Minions! I mean, followers! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Today I have planned to bring you a special treat, I am going to catch a leprechaun and we will have green blood margaritas! YAY! I know they are slippery little brats, but I’m sure a good progeny like me can find one, right? While I go hunting for one I will tell you about my recent adventure to Ireland. No, I didn’t get to go in real life (stop bringing up my Irish deficiencies would ya?) but I did get to check it out with the final installment of the Morgan Rawlinson series written by Maryrose Wood.
Oh and I’m giving away all three books in this trilogy!!
My Book Reviews
Book Review – The Mating by Nicky Charles
The Mating: The Original Law of the Lycans Story
I accidentally came across this free e-book and almost bypassed it until I saw the huge number of positive reviews on iTunes and on Goodreads. I wondered…were they positive reviews, cause it was “good, for a freebie” or was there something more to the raves? Sometimes, free doesn’t end up being worth it if you feel you’ve wasted your time at the end of the story, you know? After reading the summary (intriguing), and numerous reviews (everyone seemed extremely excited about it), I decided to give it a try. Free huh? I can’t believe how much I lucked out on that one cause, in this case, this book lived up to it’s reviews, and then some!
Book Review – When Darkness Comes by Alexandra Ivy
When Darkness Comes (Guardians of Eternity Book 1)
Well, well, well… I had no idea the “Guardians” were full-fledged vampires. Not that I wouldn’t have read the series eventually, but upon the very high recommendations from fellow readers (and Sherry’s super generosity), my reading time for the next couple of weeks has been filled.
These are old-school vampires, folks. Can’t see their own reflection, have no recollection of their human lives, have mind control, super speed strength, oh and, they are inhumanely gorgeous. All of ’em (at least from what I can tell so far). Don’t be fooled, however. Just because they are vampires (which makes them, essentially “demon”), they do have the ability to choose between good and evil, and recognize the “good or bad” in others around them. Even humans.

We’ve already got THREE more books to look forward to (after Sundown’s) in the Dark Hunter series! YAY!!! (Thanks Christy for the heads-up!!)
Book Review – This Side of the Grave by Jeaniene Frost
This Side of the Grave (Night Huntress, Book 5)
Well…. I liked it. It was great to be back with the whole crew, and having Bones and Cat as the main focus was a plus. I cut my “paranormal teeth” (so to speak), on Cat and Bones, so I have a great fondness for these characters. This book had some SERIOUSLY outrageous, laugh out loud moments. Stuff that had me giggling and incited me to squee with glee about it with my fellow reading friends. And of course, Jeaniene Frost’s signature steamy scenes (well, only one of those, but it was very… inspiring 😯 )
