My Star, My Love: An Eversea Christmas (The Butler Cove Series Book 3)Β by Natasha Boyd

Review by Johanne Pearl Couturier

When I read the story about Keri Ann and Jack (see the first 2 books – EverseaΒ and Forever Jack), I totally fell in love with this improbable couple. Everything (including the horizontal scenes…) was soooo intense! True love at its best! But at the end of book two… I could not believe I was going to have to separate from them because I had some kind of a feeling that they were my friends now… read more

Book Review – Home For The Holidays by Jeaniene Frost (The Bite Before Christmas Anthology)

Home for the Holidays as found in The Bite Before Christmas Anthology
This was actually a very significant and important addition to the Cat and Bones saga. I can actually say, I enjoyed it a ton, even if it still didn’t have that old Cat and Bones “magic and sizzle”. In fact, I think I’m going to dare say that I liked this “short” better than the latest full length release (One Grave at a Time).

What it lacked in romantic tension, it made up for with an intriguing and somewhat scary mystery, quite a few moments where I “uh oh’d” about Bones… read more

All I Want for Christmas Is a Vampire (Love at Stake, Book 5)
I finishedΒ this 5th book in the series,Β a couple of days ago,Β but didn’t find that I had anything “new” to be excited about with this one.

The book is about a human female (Toni) who’s friend was attacked by the evil vampires (the Malcontents), and has been hospitalized (and considered delusional since she is telling authorities that Vampires attacked her). Toni is intent on proving her correct, and therefore places herself in a situation to be attacked (which she is). While the attackers nearly rape and kill her, she is saved by Connor (a good Vampire from Angus Mckay’s team), and she helps him fight of her attackers. Her skills impress him, and he requests that she join his “human” team of daytime guards. read more
