Moan by Kenya Wright


Rating: 2 stars out of 5
Character composition: BW/WM
Released: February 23, 2016
Pages: 138
Purchase @: Amazon


Typically I am a pretty solid fan of Kenya Wright. She's an author who dares to take chances and has a voice that makes her writing stand out. While I still appreciate these qualities and the writer, I didn't love Moan. It fell short for me on many levels, which was disappointing because at the core of it there was a very interesting and bold story going on.

The Boy Who Came Back a Wolf (Space Wolf Chronicles 1) by Kara Lockharte

Published: Oct. 2015
Pages: 49
Diversity: bw/wm
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
* I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review*

As a person who loves sci-fi and has a healthy appreciation of paranormal romance, I wish that I could say that I got more enjoyment from reading The Boy Who Came Back a Wolf. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. For me it was a case of lost potential. I'm just going to jump right in and share my thoughts with you.

I wish that I could say that I enjoyed this book. The premise was a good one. The writing acceptable. The main character's twin boys - adorable. Unfortunately, there was a repetition problem that put the brakes on any real enjoyment that I could have found in the story. Let me share my opinion (that's what a review is after all) with you.

Deeper (Book One of The Deeper Chronicles) by Allyn Lesley


The cover of this book originally intrigued me enough to 1-click it on Amazon. Coupled with the story-line I felt pretty encouraged that I was in for some good reading time. Unfortunately, upon finishing the book I feel a little underwhelmed and "blah" about the story. Allyn  Lesley is a new author and Deeper is her Freshman outing.

What It's About
Deeper is about a school teacher by the name of Avianna "Avi" Linton. Avi is a woman who's trying for a fresh start by creating a quiet life for herself in New York. She has a past that she's not proud of and a mother that she avoids. Noah is a tough, wealthy, and not-so-good man who is considered by some to be the "King of New York" (not sure

Full Circle by Chudney Thomas

Full Circle is a novella (about 75 pages) and part of a series. Two things that I'm generally not a fan of, but this is a new author for me and since I had the opportunity to give it a try I figured why not? I'm going to keep this review short and sweet (really, I am!) so I'll jump right in.

What it's about: This is a paranormal story with werewolves at the center. We have an alpha werewolf named Drake and a half-human/half werewolf woman named Ria. Because she is basically human, Ria is the person that everyone seemingly takes advantage of. She's okay with this for the most part having accepted her place. She is completely in love with the pack alpha however, but she feels that he couldn't want her and even if he did she couldn't be his mate because - well she's basically human. Drake sees things differently and knows that Ria is his mate. He's been in love with her for years and thinks its time she finds out. Drake chases, Ria runs from the truth, and in the meantime trouble is brewing in the form of a mystery that is affecting some wolves.

A Thief's Last Kiss by Chacelyn Pierce

The idea of a thief leading a dual life is an exciting concept for me and not a very common story-line in the IR  genre. Honestly, I don't think that I've ever read a story with a professional thief as a heroine in this genre before. Not only is the heroine a thief, but the hero is also. Basically, you have two individuals who are on the shady side of the law. So when I saw A Thief's Last Kiss I was curious and wanted to read it. Unfortunately, it failed to deliver the great story that I was hoping for.

Infinity (Valkyries: Soaring Raven)

Have you ever walked up to two people who are in the middle of a conversation? It might be a casual conversation or one that's got them both heated up, and chances are it's

Quick Review: Cyborg 2150 by Charisma Knight

I confess. I absolutely love sci-fi. When done right it's one of my favorite things. So when I saw Cyborg 2150 I jumped on the chance
to read this science-fiction romance.
