My Review

WOW This book never disappointed in anyway. It's Freakin Amazing. The danger of waiting for a book your dying to read is that its not as good as you thought it was going to be, this is not the case with this. It never disappointed in anyway

At the end of Jordyn(book1) she leaves her  family behind after learning some things about herself.
 
At the start of this book Jordyn is still on her travels and showing no intention of going back, until Emrys calls a favour in to locate her, as she is blocking everyone. Once back with her family but still extremely angry at them she learns Lynn and Robert have been taken and are being held hostage in the caverns of gloom by the Daemons.

Until its time to go and rescue them its training time and this time the training has been handed over to Emrys to train Jordyn. And Jordyn's made up it's pay back time.
 
Emrys is playing a double sword, playing to the daemons that he is going to hand over Jordyn and working with Haniel to make sure Jordyn is brought safely back  along with Lyn and Robert.

Who does Jordyn trust and which side is Emrys on? 

Another fantastic book by the amazing Tiffany king.  What can I say about this other than, WOW.

I can't say too much about this book because I don't want to give anything away or spoil it for anyone.  I loved it. I loved the change in Jordyn's and Emrys relationship, and that Jordyn had grown up a bit. I loved Boon. I'm guessing we will see a bit more of him. I love Emrys he's another one to add to your list of hot book boyfriends. I love that your kept guessing about him all through this book to see if he really is going to hand over Jordyn. Did he? You will have to read it. It pulls at you in everyway, at times I wanted to scream and shout at Jordyn.

 I have read all of Tiffany's books, and they are all amazing this one is no different. Sometimes with a second book there is a danger of it not holding up to the first. This is so not the case with this book. This surpasses everything a second book should be and a whole lot more. I read it in one sitting I couldn't put it down.  I will say that this book turned me into a daemon when someone tried to disturb me.

I would give this 5/5

Author Interview

Tell us about yourself?
I am basically a happy, fun-loving person who loves to joke and laugh. I'm not a hard person to get along with unless you are a "Negative Nelly," then, I just don't have the time. Anything else you can read on my bio, only because I hate talking about myself. It's embarrassing.

You are a successful writer, what inspired you to write your first book?
I've been a reader my entire life, especially YA. About five years ago, my daughter, who was thirteen at the time, started to become more interested in reading. I'd always had a dream to write a book, so I decided to try something that I thought would appeal to her. That is where Meant to Be, book one in The Saving Angels Series came from.

Do you have a "thing" you do to get you in the mood for writing?
I sit down and write every day. There are really only two things I need: lots of chocolate and Diet Coke.

The Saving Angels Series(which I LOVED) is Jordyn a follow on from that series?
Yes, Jordyn is a spin-off series, although she is not mentioned in the Saving Angels series. The first Jordyn book takes place five years after The Ascended.

The Second Book in the Daemon Series is due out for release August 15th. What can we expect from this book?
There is plenty of action in book two. You can expect Jordyn to kick some major tail, but after book one, she also has other issues she is dealing with. She is struggling with her identity, who she can trust, uncertainty about her future—love, our girl definitely has some problems to work out.

What's next after Jordyn and the cavern of gloom?
I have two books in the hands of my agent. One is called Misunderstandings. It is the follow up to my NA book, No Attachments. The second is called Turtle Bay, book one in a new YA series I am starting called Seasons of Love.

Out of all the books you have written which has been your favourite to write?
I enjoyed both Jordyn books because I love Jordyn as a character. Sometimes, I wish I had her brash, confident attitude. I'm also really proud of Miss Me Not. The subject matter is a little tougher, but I have gotten such positive feedback from readers.

Out of all your books which Character are you most like and who is your favourite?
Each of the female lead characters in my books has a bit of my personality in them.  I would say I am most like Krista from the Saving Angels Series. She also loves to laugh and joke and just have fun. Plus, we both get embarrassed easily.

Are any of the characters based on you or people you know?
Many of my characters are based on personalities and traits from different people I have met over the years. No one specific. I just draw upon my life's experiences.

What are you reading at the moment?
Just One Drop, by Quinn Loftis. It's fantastic. I would highly recommend getting it.

Did you read as a child and what was your favourite book?
I have always loved reading. I'm a YA girl. I grew up on Judy Blume. Tiger Eyes was my favourite.  I also love the Harry Potter series, not that I was a child when The Sorcerer's Stone released.

Fun Questions

Favourite TV show? Scandal

Fall For Me by K A Last


Synopsis

“Angels aren’t supposed to fall in love, especially with each other. But for the record, you were worth it.”

Grace Tate is a Protection Angel and Vampire Hunter, and she has always followed the rules. But some rules are made to be broken…

Until now the fight against evil has been simple, and falling in love was never part of the plan. So what happens when it’s beyond Grace’s control, and when she least expects it she falls for the wrong person?

All hell breaks loose, that’s what.

At Hopetown Valley High, not everything is as it seems, and the one person Grace thought was her enemy becomes her most important ally.

Blood will be shed, lives will be lost and friendships will be tested. It all comes down to one decision, and when Grace tries to save all those dear to her, she realises not everyone can be—or wants to be—saved.


My Review

I received this book I exchange for an honest opinion.

Grace is an Angel. Seth is an Angel until his fall... Why did he fall he loves Grace and its not allowed between Angels.

Grace is reborn into a Protection Angel, her twin brother Archer is a Hunter. What do they Hunt Vampires. Grace is regularly fighting against Seth now that he is a fallen Angel and hangs out with the vampires. Grace and Archer go to boarding school, they have a shed where they live just outside the school grounds. They keep pretty much to them selves with the exception of Emma, Graces best friend who doesn't know who they are.

Josh and Abby have been dating for 3 years. Until Josh breaks up with Abby. Ryan likes Emma but has never spoken to her. Charlotte is the new girl - but who is she. She is a vampire with a pure soul -how is that possible. Once Josh breaks up with Abby, him and Grace start to get close. Ryan and Emma hook up and things are ok until Grace gets called up by the council and told she is letting her human emotions get to her and that she must kill her new friend Charlotte. Grace refuses to do this sticking up for what she believes in.

I really liked this story. It constantly kept me guessing. It is a total different take on angels. I loved the ring that the angels wore. I liked that we got the story from both Grace and Josh's side. Everything was just right about this story, pace, style of writing, characters. I totally wasn't expecting Charlottes secret. And Seth No..... I am glad there is a second book. I will be reading it.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes vampire stories.


Book Blitz Surrender to Love by JC Valentine


Release Date is November 12, 2013

Synopsis

After finding herself out of luck and out of love, Patricia Jacobs has written off the male species. No one but her father has ever given her the love and devotion she knows she deserves, and she’s sick and tired of it. Until she collides, literally, with a man whose devastating smile and seductive charm that should be considered illegal, destroys her plans. He’s everything she’s ever dreamed of in a man: handsome, intelligent, successful, they share a love of cars and best of all; he looks at her like she’s his light in the dark. What more could a girl ask for?

Jonathon Bradford, destroyed by a past that has haunted his every waking moment for the last five years, isn’t looking for a serious relationship, until he meets Patricia. Sweet, saucy and as hot as the summer is long, Jon can’t deny the draw he has toward her. For the first time, he has hope. Determined to shake the ghosts of his past, Jon focuses on forging a future with Patti, but he’s always been a master at standing in his own way.

When Jon’s past refuses to be forgotten, will Patti be able to live with the truth about the man who’s stolen her heart?

Exclusive Excerpt


As he stared at her profile, taking in the gentle slope of her nose, the roundness of her cheeks, the curve of her lips as they turned up at the corners, and how they shifted with each new expression, he realized with sudden clarity that his fear had nothing to do with the cars or the speed. It had everything to do with the damage he’d sustained to his mind and soul that night.
He’d made himself into a victim, that’s what everyone told him, but he was only now realizing it. He’d set aside everything that had ever held his interest. He’d cleaved away the one thing he’d ever truly been passionate about like a rotten limb. The severance had left a hollow place inside of him where the painful memories echoed like hungry ghosts.

No more.


Watching Patti now, her passion bleeding through in her every move and shout of joy, Jon knew the only way to enjoy life was by living it.

Suit and Fangs by Marian Tee


Synopsis

Caros are what vampires used to be.
We are slaves to pleasure, power turns us on, and each and every one of us has a weakness to hide.


All things sparkly and beautiful are 18-year-old Caylie Sonora’s greatest source of pleasure, and no one is more irresistibly gorgeous and seductive in her eyes than the quiet and old-fashioned Luka. All the girls in school want to belong to him, craving both his body and authority. They say that behind closed doors his coldly charming manners disappear, leaving behind a guy who’d take you so hard you’d be breathless and panting for more. But if Caylie has her way, all she’d take from him is revenge, using her body to break his heart.

The most carnal of passions is the only chink in 19-year-old Luka Georgiades’ armor, but his obsession has only always ever to do with Caylie, whose body he desires to possess, in every imaginable position. The half-human Luka may be his race’s most cunning defender, with murderously precise skills and an even deadlier mind, but even Luka is powerless against fate, which forces him to hurt the girl who’s his everything…again and again.

They are each other’s weakness, and the game of love has never been so destructive


My Review

I LOVED this book.  I LOVED the cover. Its everything you want from a Marian Tee book and more.

Caros are what Vampires used to be. Caros turn into Vampires due a number of reasons one  being the one they love not loving them back.

Caylie Sonora is beautiful, rich and spoilt.
Luka Georgiades is handsome, rich, powerful and part of the Brethren. He's the man every Caro Female wants. But Luka loves Caylie. But does Caylie love Luka?

Caylie and Luka are childhood friends. Caylie is obsessed with luka. But after Luka deserting Caylie at her coming out ball at 16. Luka leaves for 3 years and when he comes back Caylie is after revenge wanting to hurt him like he hurt her....

I loved everything about this book. I love Luka, who wouldn't. He oozes power and dominance and he's hot.  Caylie makes me laugh and at times I want to scream at her. I love that you are kept guessing with the will they wont they. I loved how Marian makes it modern including Facebook, twitter, making them into celebrities. I loved how it interacts with The Werewolf prince - The Moretti series namely Domenico Moretti. It made me want to read The werewolf prince and I and A Royal Heartbreak all over again. I cant wait to see what Marian brings out next.

I would definitely recommend this book and give it 5/5 and for movie moments 3/5.
