Feasted On: Phoenix Rising Series, Book 1

Format: Paperback | Pages: 342 | Release Date: February 28, 2012 | Publisher: Brava Books | Obtained: Cynthia Eden's Twitter Giveaway

"Fever" [Phoenix Rising Series, Book 1] by Joan Swan

My Book Summary : A case of mistaken identity couldn't come at the worst time for Alyssa, especially when it causes her to be taken hostage by a prisoner, Teague, in the middle of his abdomen ultrasound. Now she's on the run, not willingly (especially at first), with Teague and involved in his floundering plan on gaining his freedom while getting custody of his daughter back. Throughout the experience, Alyssa will find out how much and what she's willing to handle, along with finding out that not everything in life is really, what it seems.

Teague has been in prison for a crime he didn't commit. After three years, his plan to escape has finally here and his hostage (who's also his leverage in getting his daughter back) isn't anything like he thought she would be. She's strong, bullheaded, and very determined in everything she does. Throughout the "hostage" situation, they go through a lot together. Therefore, not long after he finds out who Alyssa really is, they get on friendlier terms with each other.

In addition, Alyssa decides that she needs to help Teague become a free man, just more legally then he had planned. In doing so their lives take massive turns, they both have to decide what they most want in their lives, and what they are willing to do (and/or give up) to make those dreams come true.

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars! This riveting and enticing novel will keep you on your toes while wishing for the romance relationship between the main characters and Teague's main goals to all work out for the best. I could not believe some of the twists that happened in this book, but it has government conspiracy out the wazoo! The characters in this novel are very dynamic, diverse, sizzling and soo much more!

However, I will say at the beginning of the novel (like Taz and sometimes Teague) I was annoyed with how Alyssa handled herself or some of the reactions she had to her situation. Yet even as I say that, it really appealed to be that she was portrayed as such a strong heroine. Alyssa never backed down from anything that came at her throughout this whole book, which was very admiring.

Than the only other thing, that I wish could have been more developed was the things Tara did. Are they going to prosecute her? Was it really an accident? Did the warehouse fire make her do some of the things she did, like Suzanna?

I hope that my unanswered questions will be answered in the second novel in this series, "Blaze," or at least in some book down the line. Since in my opinion I don't think it was an accident. Nevertheless, until the author tells us ... who really knows the truth? =0/

Anyway ....

All in all, I REALLY liked this novel and I have high hopes for this series! I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read contemporary romance novels with a slight paranormal feel to it.

I hope you'll like it as much as I did!!

Book Teaser(s) :
"Shhh." Creek silenced her with a wave of his hand.
"The San Quentin inmates subdued guards and reportedly escaped the facility with a woman whose identity remains undisclosed. It is unclear at this time whether that woman was a hostage of an accomplice."
"Accomplice?" Alyssa sat straight up and swung her legs over the side of the bed. "You've got to be kidding me. Why would they . . . ? How could they . . . ?" ~ within Chapter 8
"You don't strike me as a random cruising kind of guy," Alyssa said. "Why are we here?"
"What kind of guy do I strike you as after our whole fifty-six hours together?"
"Like a guy who has secrets."
"That's not news, not is it?"
He turned into the parking lot, his attention scanning each row as he drove. ~ within Chapter 13

      After her father loses the family fortune in an insider-trading scheme, single mom Parker Welles is faced with some hard decisions. First order of business: go to Gideon’s Cove, Maine, to sell the only thing she now owns—a decrepit house in need of some serious flipping. When her father’s wingman, James Cahill, asks to go with her, she’s not thrilled...even if he is fairly gorgeous and knows his way around a toolbox.

      Having to fend for herself for the first time in her life, Parker signs on as a florist’s assistant and starts to find out who she really is. Maybe James isn’t the glib lawyer she always thought he was. And maybe the house isn’t the only thing that needs a little TLC...

    Feasted On: An Accidental Birthright by Maisey Yates

    Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 322 KB | Release Date: April 2011 | Publisher: Harlequin Presents | Obtained: Amazon.com / Carrie Ann Ryan's Giveaway

    "An Accidental Birthright" by Maisey Yates

    My Book Summary : Alison has always wanted to be a mother. Over the years, she has planned her life so she could get pregnant and become the best possible mother there could be. However, never in her plans did she ever want a husband or plan on having a father for her child, assuming she could be enough for the baby.

    Now she is currently pregnant with her first child, and it should be the happiest time in her life. And it was, up until the clinic she went to called to tell her that they mixed up the samples that she chose with another person’s accidentally. Therefore, Alison has a big problem on her hands. She chose her donor specifically because as she is a non-affected carrier of Cystic Fibrosis, she wanted to have a father who didn't have that genetic flaw so there wasn't the possibility that her child could get the disease like her sister had. With those thoughts in mind, she goes to find the father of her child so she can be certain everything will be okay and finds out the shock of her life ...

    ... the father of her child, Maximo (Max), is the Prince of Turan and her baby will be a royal heir!!

    Where for Max, after recently dealing with a devastating loss of his wife a few years ago, this is an unexpected second chance at the child he was working for before his wife died. There is no way he is willing to let Alison go. Therefore, the only conclusion is for them to get married! The big question is can they make it work, especially since neither planned on marrying anyone anytime soon...

    My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!! This novel is the perfect complement to anyone looking for an easy read that will entice you enough to wish you were Alison!! I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, from how unique the plot was to the budding romance and deep respect that you read from Max & Alison!! They were just the type of couple that held your attention enough to wish there was more to the story!! And that was my only problem with this story .... I could not get enough of it! =0)

    I recommend it to anyone who's a romantic at heart!

    - On a side note -
    I really hope that doctor of Max's got fired, since she was a real bitch! Plus, I am really curious as to what happened between Alison and her new in-laws. Mostly I want to know how their relationship is now as it was really rocky throughout the book. =0/

    Check out Maisey's answers to my above side note!!

    Book Teaser(s) :
    It wasn't a demanding kiss. It was a slow seduction of her body, her mind, her senses. She'd never been kissed like this, with this level of skill and sensuality.
    She'd kissed men before. Mostly back in college when she'd bothered with the pretense of casual dating. But never had a kiss made her feel so hollow, so desirous for more, as if she was in need of something only this man possessed. ~ within Chapter 3
    "I promised I wouldn't force you, Alison, but I didn't say I wouldn't seduce you."
    Her stomach flipped, and as her nausea was starting to fade already there was no way she could place the blame on her pregnancy. "Well, that isn't...it's not...you won't be able to."
    He leaned in, his lips just a breath away from hers. "What did I tell you about issuing challenges?"
    "I..." She couldn't tear her eyes away from his mouth, couldn't stop herself from leaning in just slightly... ~ within Chapter 7

    Made the Grade: Million-Dollar Love-Child by Sarah Morgan

    Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 168 KB | Release Date: November 2006 | Publisher: Harlequin Presents | Obtained: Amazon.com / Carrie Ann Ryan's Giveaway

    "Million-Dollar Love-Child" by Sarah Morgan

    My Book Summary : Kimberley has had to deal with some struggles in her past but having to go to Luciano (Luc) for help is one of the biggest struggles she has ever had to deal with, yet. When she meets with Luc she has to inform him of their son, whom she's there because of the danger he recently came into. However, things get even more complicated when Luc tells her he flat out doesn't believe her and thinks she just another gold digger. Nevertheless, after Kimberley tells him she's willing to do anything to get the money she's asking for. Luc is finally willing to make an offer, her in his bed for as long as he wants, and with no other choice, she agrees. What will happen once their passion ignites again? Will they be able to walk away from each other like they plan or will their lives change for the better?

    My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. Wow! Luc is the most possessive, arrogant, and domineering hero that I have ever read about thus far from all the books I've read. I'm not completely sure if that's a good thing or not. However, he does have a few redeemable qualities that are shown to you within the last few chapters of this novel.

    I did enjoy reading about the sexual tension between the main characters. Since that is the main thing that you read about between this couple. However, this novel does have a decent plot and I didn't completely except some of the twists that were thrown at me which made me very intrigued as to what the ending would hold.

    Check out this novel ... you might be as surprised as I was.

    My Previous Review(s) for this Author : The Christmas Marriage Rescue | The Midwife's Christmas Miracle

    Book Teaser(s) :
    She agreed to this.
    For the sum of five million dollars and to protect her child, she'd agreed to it and she just wanted to get the next two weeks over with as quickly as possible and get home.
    She wanted to be with her son. She missed him dreadfully.
    And she was afraid. Desperately afraid that she might turn back into the helpless, needy woman Luc had seduced all those years before. ~ within Chapter 5
    'Because tonight I'm more interested in your mind than your body. We're going to talk, meu amorzinho, and I'm going to find out everything there is to know about you.'
    That soft mouth, the same mouth that had taken him to paradise and back, curved into a wry smile. 'And what about you, Luc? Are you going to talk too? Or am I going to be the one doing all the giving? Perhaps I want to know everything there is to know about you too.'
    Luc gave a brief frown but recovered himself in time. If she wanted him to talk too, then he could do that. ~ within Chapter 6

    Idolizing In: The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club by J. C. Isabella

    Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 423 KB | Release Date: 2012 | Publisher: Self-Published | Obtained: Amazon.com / Carrie Ann Ryan's Giveaway

    "The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club" by J. C. Isabella

    My Book Summary : When Chloe was a little girl she had a crush on Zack, and with a few friends of hers who also liked Zack, they created 'The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club.' They would spy on him and follow him around. Somehow the girls' activities were done with Zack none the wiser. However, when Zack was a young man he would pull pranks on Chloe, and when Chloe was in fifth grade it was the last straw for her when he stole the pink streamers off her bike. Therefore, she vowed that she hated him from that point on and had nothing to do with the club. Yet when Chloe left the club her friend, Lana, took it over.

    Now as a freshman in college, Lana has taken the club from high school to college and Chloe thinks it's high time to put an end to it. Especially since some of the things the girls in the club want to know is really an evasion of privacy. Another reason Chloe wants it to stop is because recently her mother decided to marry Zack's father so they'll be living together soon which will be hard enough without having the fear that he'll find out about the club any moment to worry about.

    Even though Chloe and Zack both go to the same college, during spring break they finally have to deal with each other on a permanent basis since they help there parents move into their new house. Soon they find that they have more in common with each other then they ever thought, and become friends or at least they try to be for their parents' sake. Then they find out that their might be more behind their dislike for each other then they originally thought, more like they don't really dislike each other at all. They really like one another. However, with the new family relationships between them and the "hidden" club Chloe has to deal with, how can any romantic relationship between them ever work out for the best?

    My Book Review : 5 out of 5 stars!! I LOVED the characters in this novel!!! Chloe and Zack are quite a pair about keeping false fronts about their feelings to each other for everyone else while their true feelings are quite different!! Plus, I loved the fact that they went, pretty much, their whole lives in love with each other and only now taping into those feelings. *sigh* It is a fun story that I thoroughly enjoyed reading!! From them finding out the truth of one another, to getting used to their new living arrangements, to dealing with their new jealousies and old secrets .... I just could not get enough to this book or this pair!!

    I recommend this to anyone who enjoys young romances in the YA genre!! Especially ones that deal with old crushes, quirky friends, and guys that want to play games in more ways then one.

    Book Teaser(s) :
    Teaser #1
    “Is it just me, or do things here seem a bit, uh, bizarre?” Chloe asked as I stopped the van to let a man and his goat cross. He was walking him on a leash like a dog, and he was the only sign of life. I didn’t see anyone else around.
    “I was thinking more along the lines of the Twilight Zone.” I slid closer to her, keeping my foot firmly on the break. She glanced up, curious. I pushed down the lock on her door, and then resumed my position at the wheel with a good amount of space between us, but I left my arm draped behind her on the seat.
    “Why did you do that?”
    “It seemed like a good idea.” I laughed, maybe a little nervously at her questioning look. I hoped my actions weren’t so obvious.
    “Am I hallucinating?” She pointed out the front window. ~ within Chapter 6
    “Mind if I join you?”
    “It’s your social life at stake if you do.”
    “Nah, Lana can’t touch me. I made her queen, remember that.” He dug into a sub from the cafeteria, hunching over the grass so nothing landed on his crisp baseball uniform.
    “Why are you so dressed up?”
    “Lost a bet. Have to wear this for the next three days.” He sucked down half a coke before speaking again. “Listen, this thing with you and Lana, it creeps me out.”
    I froze. “What thing?”
    “Dude, I’m not in the dark anymore.”
    “I’m not sure if I follow.”
    “The club, Baker. I know.”
    I’m so dead. “Excuse me, but, oh shit.” ~ within Chapter 17

    Blog Tour - Feasted On: Omegas In Love by Annie Nicholas | Interview, Review, & Giveaway

    Today I'm turning my blog over to Annie Nicholas, who I interviewed about her latest novel "Omegas In Love," which is the 4th book in The Vanguards Series!!

    ALSO -- Be sure to comment on this post to be able to sign up for this tour's GIVEAWAYs (listed below)!! [Blog Tour will run from March 19 - 30, 2012]



    My Q&A with Annie Nicholas :

    Jess : Why did you choose to pursue this career path?

    Annie : In all honesty, I think this career chose me. I’ve always loved to read. Where most children were told to stop watching TV and play outside, I was told to put down the book. LOL It never occurred to me to try writing until a few years ago. I was ill, house bound, and bored to death with nothing left to read so I entertained myself with a my own story.

    Jess : What books did you enjoy reading while growing up?

    Annie : I loved the Narnia series and was so excited when they came out in movies. (Probably more than my kids)

    Jess : Which of your characters would you most/least to invite to dinner, from which book and why?

    Annie : The least would be Tane, a Nosferatu vampire, from my Angler series. I would probably end up being dinner. LOL

    But I would love to be invited to Pia’s parents' house for dinner. She is my succubus from Confessions of a Succubus series due to be released in fall. Her family is outrageous and Pia is playful and so much fun.

    Jess : If you had to describe Katrina & Tyler (from "Omegas In Love") in one word, what would it be?

    Annie : Devoted.

    Jess : What sparked the idea for your Vanguards Series?

    Annie : A long-ass drive to Canada and my home town, where I grew up a nerd, inspired this series. All the books I’d read were about alpha shifters, confident and dominant. What if I’d been placed in a pack? What happens to weaker shifters? My omegas were born. Sometimes a woman just needs to root for the underdog.

    Jess : Which usually comes first for you, the character(s) story or the idea for the novel?

    Annie : The character makes the story. Each person reacts differently in a situation so once I know who I’m writing about I start tossing conflicts at them and see how they react. This is where the stories begin.

    Jess : In regards to your most recent novel, "Omegas In Love," if you could write it all over again, would you change anything about it?

    Annie : Not a thing.

    Jess : How many books have you written? Which is your favorite and why?

    Annie : I have seven books published. Two novels in The Angler series and four novellas with The Vanguards, then a stand alone novella titled "Irresistible."

    My favorite book is "Catch" because its action packed, I made sure you could never guess what will happen next, and it all tied in well together.

    Jess : Do you have any other projects in the works? If so, can you share a little of your current work with us?

    Annie : I’m in the process of editing the next Vanguards novella, "The Sigma," releasing August 2012. And also will begin edits on a new series titled "Confessions of a Succubus," the first novel releasing this fall. Very exciting stuff. There are a few super secret projects I’m working on as well for this year.



    About the Author :

    Annie Nicholas hibernates in the rural, green mountains of Vermont, where she dreams of different worlds, heroes, and heroines. When spring arrives the stories pour from her, in hopes to share them with the masses one day.

    Mother, daughter, wife are some of the hats she happily wears while trudging after her cubs through the hills and dales. The four seasons an inspiration and muse.

    "Omegas In Love" [The Vanguards Series, Book 4] by Annie Nicholas

    My Book Summary : Tyler & Katrina have been together for just over a year and since things are going so well, Tyler plans to pop the question soon. However, on the day he plans to do so Katrina's past, and her previous pack from China, comes back to haunt them and kidnap her. She left that pack years ago because of the abuse that was going on, and doesn't want to go back. Yet when she tries to escape, she finds that she can't seem to reach her wolf. Scared of her previous Alpha and lost as to what to do, Katrina has to wait it out in hopes that Tyler will be able to rescue her.

    Tyler knew Katrina had a bad past and pack, but he never really knew the details until now. In addition, even though he isn't one of the fighters in his pack, he is determined to bring Katrina back to him. But can he do so before it's too late and at what cost to himself or his pack?

    My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars! This is a quick read that is action-packed with HOT sex scenes, pack support, werewolf fights (some clever and some brutal), treachery! This book threw me for a loop with how many storylines it had in it while being a short story and being oh-so-good!! I LOVED IT!! Along with the characters, that I always enjoyed and liked getting brief updates about!

    My only problem was I wish it were longer. Not because the plot needed it, but just because I didn't want the book to end!!

    I recommend this to anyone who has read the previous stories in the Vanguards Series and/or to anyone who likes reading action-packed (in more ways than one) paranormal romances!!

    My Previous Review(s) for this Series : Book 2

    Author's Series Extras : Daedalus' Trading Card | Eric's Trading Card | Robert's Trading Card | Tyler's Trading Card

    Book Teaser(s) :
    “I can’t stay here. I’m going with you.” The doors opened and they rode to the lobby.
    Eric leaned against the wall, his head hung low and his shoulders bent. “There’s going to be fighting.”
    “I know.” He couldn’t meet his gaze. The sting of the comment too sharp on his battered soul. Over the past two years, Eric had matured from super geek to ultra alpha. Tyler gazed down at his own slight frame. Nothing had changed. Why did Katrina want him?
    “You haven’t trained much, Tyler. I don’t want to rescue the girls and lose you in the process. Let me, Robert, and Esther go.”
    All those chances to learn to fight and he’d blown them off, always thinking that there’d be other options besides violence. Now, all he wanted to do was tear Chen’s head off with his bare hands. ~ within Chapter 4

    Book Excerpt :

    Katrina attempted to transform into her wolf-beast form as Chen’s guard dragged her through the panicked human crowd. Her beast didn’t respond. Sharp claws of fear tore into her heart. What was wrong?
    Her beast used to cower like this in the past when faced with Chen, but they’d grown so much since escaping to America. It only took one moment in her old alpha’s presence and they’d lost all they had gained. No, please no, she needed to connect with her beast and fight.
    She looked at her true mate a last time as he stood in his red tinged magnificent form against Chen and his pack mates. Their gazes met and she reached for him, hoping one day he might forgive her secrets.
    If only the past would have remained buried. No one knew of her life in China--she wanted the depravity forgotten. Her best friend, Sugar, had once told her to build a wall around the haunting memories, and she had. Now, Chen, her worst nightmare, showed up here, halfway around the world.
    What did an alpha of a large shifter clan want with the lowest of daughters of her birth pack? She’d been nothing but garbage to him. There must be other females with the same pure shifter blood as her. Chen could mate and torture one of them. What made her so special?
    She struggled in the guard’s arms, twisting and turning until she sank her flat, human teeth into his neck.
    With a cry, he pulled her off by yanking on her long hair, then slapped her across the face hard enough to rattle her thoughts. Such hits had been common in her youth but it had been years since anyone had laid an unkind hand on her. Limp, she wasn’t difficult for him to carry and take away from Chinatown. The place where she’d met a misfit pack of omega shifters. The place she’d felt most at home. The place where Tyler had kissed her for the first time.

    Expected Publication Released Date: June 5, 2012

    Author's Book Description:
      She’s holding tight. He’s hanging loose.

      Eve Monroe is a stock-car PR pro who puts her career first—until an on-track wardrobe malfunction reveals more than the sexy smile of her race-car brother’s jack-man, Nolan Ford. The video’s become an internet sensation, and it’s Eve’s job to calm the sponsors and put a spin on the unexpected exposure. It may be purely a public relations job, but now that Eve’s seen what’s under Nolan’s crew suit, it’s gotten a little personal—and after a few dates she has Nolan pretty revved up. If only she’d learn to relax and enjoy it...

      And they both have the same drive.

      Nolan’s sure that the spontaneous birthday bash he’s throwing for Eve in Las Vegas should loosen her up. It does more than that. Somewhere between cocktails and a smoking-hot motel-room derby, Eve and Nolan wake up hitched, thanks to a post-sex-high detour to a Vegas chapel. A hangover marriage to a virtual stranger isn’t good for anyone’s image, so Eve plans to play the happy wife long enough to satisfy the press, and then quietly part ways. Now all she has to do is convince her new personal jack-man. But Nolan has plans of his own...

    She shrugged, examining her purple nails. “I’ll keep them hidden.”

    "Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss" [Pregnancy & Passion Series, Book 3] by Maya Banks

    My Book Summary : Ashley's dreams of being married to her perfect man who adores her goes up in flames when she finds out that he married her because her father told him it was the only way he'd agree to the merger of their businesses. Now at a loss as to what her life has become. Ashley decides she can try changing herself into the woman worthy enough for Devon. If only it didn't hurt too much in doing so ...

    ... But will Devon be able to love the new and approved Ashley or will he miss the woman she use to be??

    My Book Review : 2.5 out of 5 stars. The Author's book description gave me high hopes in this book, but it just fell flat for me. I mean, I liked Ashley even if she was a bit scattered and Devon did mean well in his own way, and I do believe that things could have worked out really well between them if Ashley's father didn't make the ultimatum. Nevertheless, the book has a slow start and then once everything was out in the open I just wanted to give up on this book, yet I'm happy I stuck with it because the last two chapters are really well written and wraps up this story nicely.

    So, give this story a try ... you might find you like it more than I did.
