The Mark of Cain (The Cain Chronicles: Book One)
I just love... or is it really hate this book. Anahara, the quintessential good girl, has never been kissed, doesn't watch TV or drink or smoke or get mad or cuss even in a minor way; falls for the ultimate, baddest of the bad: Cain, Adam's firstborn son. Inac Adamson (Cain) controls the world through an organization he originated and there is nothing he (or they) wouldn't do to obtain what he wants. What Inac says he wants now is Anahara's death. Everything hinges on 'the prophecy' but no one has enough information to direct the outcome or even knows what the outcome will be.This book asks questions. Hard questions. Can there really be free will if any part of life is controlled by destiny? Can something really be wrong if it is necessary for human survival? What is the real difference between right/good and wrong/evil? I'm not sure there are any single answers to any of these questions or that finding the answers would change anything, past, present, or future. What I do know is that I couldn't read this book without becoming emotionally involved in the outcome and will be continuing the series... because I have to.

True
Rory is goal oriented and has great work ethics but doesn't understand how relationships work. Tyler is strong and protective, especially towards his family and can never quite believe he is good enough to be loved. Even though they seem like opposites once Rory and Tyler get to know each other they find more in common every day, but their love must withstand friends, family and fate working against a future where they can be together.TRUE is an excellent book which had me in tears from halfway through. I am glad I had the opportunity to read it.
Heartstone: Book II of the Dolvia Saga
I just won a copy courtesy of Stella Atrium and Goodreads First Reads.
Betty's Child
I just started this book and already I'm hooked. I hope you will read it too! For those who are interested; here is the Amazon Kindle e-book link where I found it for free today.
SufferStone: Book I of the Dolvia Saga
At first this book was hard reading for me, it seemed like I was reading a history textbook instead of a novel; not what I was used to. Then, as I read more the realization came that the people are there to tell the tale, as Dolvia wills. The story begins with the Company. The Company smiles. The Company gives and gives until greed springs its trap and the Company controls everything and the company wants everything of value on Dolvia. Dolvia is a planet. Dolvia's will controls the people, the ecology, everything that comes in contact with Dolvia. This is the tale of the struggle between the Company and Dolvia told by the people who were there.
I'm ready to read the second book in the series, HEARTSTONE. I can hardly wait to find out what comes next.
Intertwined (Intertwined Series #1)
Wow! A whole new concept of paranormalism. Aden Stone has had four other paranormal souls sharing his head (and sometimes his body) since birth. His life, not being hard enough, makes a sudden change with the introduction of other beings: vampires, werewolves, goblins, demons, and witches in addition to the ghosts and zombies he previously had to deal with. Then there is Aden's first love, a vampire princess who's father is none other than Vlad the Impaler. If it can go wrong it does, or has, or will... Forget logic and enjoy the author's imaginative forays throughout the series.
Enigma
Definitely a story within a story filled with suspenseful moments and the angst of dysfunctional families and teenage love. An immortal born because of his parent's mistake, Jack, is not allowed to love or he will die when his heart breaks. Despite his impending doom, Kate and Jack are drawn to each other and refuse to be denied... until she meets Sebastian. Add finding lost family members, pregnancy with a mystery dad, and the possibility of turning immortal and it all leads up to the next book in the series. A stand-alone novel it is not but well worth reading the rest of the series.Raphael/Parish (Bayou Heat, #1-2)
I loved what there was of the stories they were far to short to include much. Not much of a fan of the new serials (books by chapter) currently being promoted. I much prefer having the whole story.I would like to know the Panteras and their alter egos as well as more depth to the internal relationships both within the group and with their mates.
Razing Kayne
I never expected the plot to end up the way it did. The twists and turns that lead deeper and deeper into the horrible truth are impressive. Kayne and Jessica's relationship and how they strive together to solve the mystery of Kayne's past balances out the destructive forces chasing them. This is an outstanding thriller novel and though it was never spelled it out there was definitely a higher power looking out for Kayne and his missing daughter. I am glad I read this and recommend it to those over 18 who are not overly sensitive to some characters views on the lack of importance of human lives.
The Chance: A Novel
I won a copy of this book from Brandi at Simon and Schuster. All it takes is a chance and the faith to reach out and grasp it when it comes. Ellie lost everything she loved: her home, her mother, her father's love, her best friend Nolan, and finally even her faith but she never forgot Nolan's promise and the letters they buried. Nolan lost too. He lost his best friend Ellie, his father, and every year he lost the championship game but he never lost his faith and he never stopped looking for Ellie.
Winterblaze (Darkest London)
I just won a copy from Foreverromance and Goodreads First Reads. This is my favorite of the series so far. Poppy's and Winston's secrets are exposed after he is attacked by a werewolf and almost dies. Driving them together a demon wants their first born son as his heir and will stop at nothing to achieve his goal. They must learn to work together and trust each other again or risk loosing all.
Ember (Darkest London, #0.5)
Having won a copy of Winterblaze, the third novel of this series I thought to get some background before I began reading it and now I am hooked. This novella teased right from the beginning. A touch of fairy tale, a hint of magic, a dream of a man (or is it a monster) all swirl around desperation and dangerous pastimes. I hope to find out that Miranda and Archer grow more attached and not only in their dreams in Firelight, Book 1 of the series.
The Warrior's Wife
A chance meeting, an opportune moment, and a love that will not be bound by convention or familial hatred. Sir Rafe Godsol sees what he wants and will let nothing stop him. Katherine de Fraisney never felt passion before, too bad it's for her father's enemy. Both are caught within the dangers of civil war or a feudal one and they must work together to hold the peace or lose all chance of holding each other.
