Even in Madness

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

Our world is a depressing place sometimes. Just watch the news.

Ah, but in another world …!

In another world, a werewolf might go on the hunt for a human mate. In another world, the stars might shower us with sexy cowboys. Perhaps a pair of serial killers will fall madly in love, or a crumbling manor reveal itself as the gateway to another reality. Perhaps a fallen ‘goddess’ will seek refuge in the mortal world, or maybe a mysterious redhead will save her people from certain doom. Hell, Frankenstein’s monster might even re-emerge from the shadows!

Welcome to a kaleidoscopic collection of tales by the bestselling, award-winning author Virginia Wallace. For even in madness there is often an element of love, and love itself would soon become meaningless without the necessary contrast of horror …

The Unwanteds

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by TK Lawyer

They are the rejected. The ignored. The barely tolerated.
They are the ones no one wants to talk about.
The Unwanteds.

These are the stories of six of them.

Rose enjoyed her co-worker’s company. Yet, one night when she witnesses something startling, she wonders if she ever really knew him, at all.
Daphne’s trip to the local bar turns into an amazing, unforgettable night with a stranger. Can she give him more than one night?
Pietro was hired to be the janitor. Yet, when he takes off with the Alpha’s betrothed to save her from a fated, loveless marriage, will he survive the pack’s vengeance?
Hopper was, only, searching for his next meal. He never expected a reunion with a girl from his past. A girl who has matured in ways that leave him wanting.
Cameron’s next-door neighbor proves to be exactly what he is searching for. Yet, there is one major problem. A respected, powerful shape shifter, living next door, who also has his eyes on her.
After losing her job of fifteen years, Jaela wants nothing more than one night of sheer, unadulterated bliss. Yet, her escort is no ordinary man and Jaela plans to win him. The only problem is, she doesn’t know his name.

Bounce Trilogy book 1

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by SK White

BOUNCE …into the unknown by S.K. White.

What if you found yourself in a different reality… same face, but different you? Whitney Ann Rhodes bounces into the alternate realities of Whit and Annie. Can she navigate Whit’s complicated and volatile life or survive Annie’s dystopian world living under the rule of a global authoritarian leader and his military regime? Will she resist or comply? Afterward, can Whitney return to her world and face what lies ahead?

EXCERPT: from Whitney’s first bounce: Whit’s World:

Jay pulled his chair over next to her. “You’ll have to explain each one to me in full detail. And you know what this means, don’t you?” He lifted her long dark hair and put it to the side over her shoulder and whispered, “We’ll just have to spend a lot more time together alone. He spotted the head of a dragon draped in roses that were left exposed from the scooped back of her sleeveless little black dress. Jay slowly leaned down and kissed the back of her neck. Shivers raced down Whitney’s back and she closed her eyes. He put his lips up to her ear. “I like your dragon. I would like to see the whole thing.”

She opened her eyes and turned to look at him. She bit the inside of her lip and chewed nervously on the side. He flashed the edges of his bright white teeth and gazed into her eyes. “Stay with me tonight?”

Whitney scraped the edge of her teeth against her bottom lip. “I don’t think I’m ready for that yet.” She inhaled and slowly released her breath. “I’m still fresh from a nasty break-up.”

He sat back in his chair. “Take all the time you need. You’re worth waiting for.”

Fury

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

Dante is a grey character… sort of. He protects his own. He’s willing to take on the seedier side of New Orleans including drug dealers and organized crime. He had a rough childhood and now he keeps everyone but his four brothers at arm’s length. Until Mila walks in looking for a job. Mila is hiding. She keeps everyone at a distance and keeps to herself but Dante noticed her and wants her. She’s his employee so she’s off limits. At least until people start trying to kill her. Then Dante’s all over making sure she’s safe.

Hackett has created some shady brothers. They can get their hands dirty but fall on the right side of the line of right and wrong. This story is well paced and written. The characters are well developed and the story is believable. There’s more romance, a bit of alpha dominance, and a lot of heat. I gobbled this one up and enjoyed it thoroughly. I like how balanced Hackett made her characters. I like how she allowed Dante to be vulnerable but still alpha male. I like how she made Mila at risk but strong enough to fight her way out of things.

The Hero She Craves

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

This was a 3.5 for me edging towards a 4 so I’m leaning into the 4. Ren and Halle have known each other for years. On her 20th birthday they shared a kiss and then Ren disappeared. The problem? Halle’s dad is Ren’s best friend. So she’s off limits. Until she isn’t.

This story has heat and danger. It’s got mystery and action. The storyline is good. But I felt like Hackett leaned on the characters knowing each other too much. I, as a reader, don’t know the characters and I wanted more character development.

Excellent writing and story telling but I wanted more in the way of knowing the characters. She’s 23 and he’s in his 30s I think. I’m not sure it was ever mentioned about his age but he was older.

It was a good story. Solid and worth reading. I’m not sure I’ll revisit it but I enjoyed it and didn’t want to be bothered with other things while I read it.

Stone

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

Hackett is brilliant with her military series. She creates action filled dynamic stories which seem plausible even as they are out there.

Stone or Knox is the new guy in New York. His first day on the job and he’s kissed one of his co-workers sister. He wants her but the code is not to mess with family. So he steps back… at least until her life is in danger and then he does everything in his power to keep her alive.

Magnolia is bored with men but she wants what her best friend and half brother have – love, marriage and a baby. When she meets Knox, she boldly tells him she is interested and wants to spend more time with him.

This story is fast paced and a quick read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the dynamic. I wanted more – but that’s because of how well Hackett writes and develops her story.

This was a great addition to the Sentinel Security series!

Lola and Her Millionaires Part Two

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Kathryn Moon

I am not allowed to read Moon’s books after 10 pm at night. I stayed up until 4 am reading the conclusion to this duology.

Moon does an amazing job connecting Lola to her pack. She develops individual relationships among all seven members. The men she developed are believable and unique. None of them seem like carbon copies. The story and world is engaging and unique. Her intimate scenes are steamy, intimate and delightfully different.

I’ll be diving into her back catalog to discover more of her stories.

Lola and The Millionaires Part One

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Kathryn Moon

Moon put out a duology for this story. Part One does not have a HEA and it shouldn’t. This was a brilliantly written story which takes the reader through all the feels – good and bad.

Lola is just getting on her feet after a traumatic event. She’s a beta and feels like she’s nothing. She has anxiety attacks when she’s in close proximity to alphas but her best friend is an Omega.

There’s a book 1 in this series but I have not read it. I didn’t feel like I was missing anything as I started this book. The story stands as is. While there isn’t an HEA at the end of this book, Moon has created a strong story. The pacing is excellent – and for many reasons she needed this to be two books. It wouldn’t have done well as one book. Her characters are well developed. The plot is strong and a little convoluted.

The Pack (non shifting) Lola gets involved with has a beta, omega, and four alphas. She meets Leo and is drawn to him but he’s got an alpha mark so she runs from him. At her new job, she meets up with him again. She ends up meeting his omega and the three of them make connections. The relationship with the three of them is sweet and loving. They help her overcome the trauma from her past.

Moon created a story which drew me in and while I am firm about wanting an HEA, this first installment with Lola did not need an HEA. She wasn’t ready for it.

More with Part Two.

The Alpha of Bleake Isle

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour, Uncategorized

by Kathryn Moon

This book gets a 4 star from me.

Mairwen is the geeky girls who hides in the corner of all events. Lord Ronson Cadogan needs an heir and is ready to choose one. Maiwen is not on his radar at all.

I bought this book from Kathryn Moon at Writer’s on the River. My daughter loves her stories and I decided to try one. I fell into this story. I like shy smart Mairwen. I like grumpy Ronson. More I thoroughly enjoyed Moon’s writing style. Her characters are well developed and her world is vivid and has depth.

Moon created a story which drew me in and held my attention. She created main characters who I liked but also secondary characters who filled in the cast nicely – whether good guys or not. The plot was divine. It was a touch of Jane Austin with a touch of Anne McCaffery. The dragon aspects where delightful. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and this book.
