Review of Bloodlines by Lynn Lipinski

Image
In keeping with Halloween I saw this intriguing book on Net Galley and thought I have to read and review this!  So I opened it up and couldn't stop reading. Lynn Lipinski's debut novel Bloodlines is a great thriller that really keeps you guessing until the end. Zane is a young man who finds out his mother had died in fire, he was out drinking the night before and really doesn't remember anything. So when the police question him a lot he begins to wonder if something happened and he is responsible for her death. Lettie his sister, is left in his care after his mother's death and she goes on the journey with him to figure out what really happened that night. It's so hard to to not blurt everything out, but this is a challenging moment for me to say just enough without giving it all away. Shortly after his mother's death Zane receives a message saying Sherri Clearwater doesn't exist and a link to an article about Lily Davis and Jeremiah Doom. As he begins ...

I received this arc through Net Galley.... HellRaisers By Alexander Gordon Smith  I am currently starting his Escape from the Furnace series based on the recommendation of my son. But I saw this title while browsing Net Galley this morning and I thought this looks good, I think I will! Of course I had forgotten Wrainbeau wanted me to review a couple scary books for October so this choice turned out to be perfect. Marlow is a troublemaker and he starts off this book getting caught causing damage to the Principal's car, but he has asthma and is a bit of coward! However, his best friend Charlie always has his back. Except this time Marlow runs from one trouble straight into fire. He stumbles across Pan and Herc fighting some kind of demonic machines! Instead of running away though Marlow jumps right into the fray and helps save their lives. Marlow doesn't want to fight demons and die a horrible death so he opts to return to his life even if it is in shambles, except the ...

Fairest of the Faire!

Fairest of the Faire by Susabelle Kelmer There was a time when I loved romance novels, they were all I read. That was a long time ago but in order for me to enjoy one nowadays it has to fit a couple of requirements for me. There must be a plot, must have real romance not insta-love, and preferably must not fall into bed right away. So let me say on these requirements the book knocks it out of the park. I started reading and couldn’t put it down until I was finished. Constance or Connie is a young widow whose husband was killed in a car accident. If that is not enough tragedy for you he also impregnated someone else and had massive debt. Sadly or however you want to look at Connie had set up for the young women having her husband’s baby to get most of the life insurance money before she was aware of just how deep her financial problems were.   To get away from that life she moves to her sister in law place and tries to start over. While there she attends a Renaissance...

The Witch and the Huntsman

If you're wondering who J.R. Rain is then you haven't been paying attention to Amazon lately. He's one of the top selling e-book authors on there and his books have garnered fans of all ages and genders. I first ran across his work in the Samantha Moon books and his witch series is a spin off of one of my favorite characters from the Samantha Moon series.  Allison Lopez starts life as being mildly psychic until she takes a vampire lover, Victor, who feeds off of her and by doing so increases her psychic abilities. Allison becomes best friends with Samantha Moon who is turned into a vampire by her lover Victor. If that's not complicated enough for you Allison then investigates a ghost incident where she reconnects with her lost witch soul sister Millicent who tells Allison that she's lived many lives before and her and Sam and Allison have been a triad of witches.  The Witch and the Huntsman is the third book in the Allison Lopez spin off series. If...

Quinn Loftis has the Midas Touch

Dream of Me by Quinn Loftis I have read several of Quinn’s books starting with the Elfin series, of which Elfin is the first book! I am up to date on that series and currently waiting for the 3 rd book Surrender to come out. If you love Faeries than this series is for you!!! I am up to book 3 in the Grey Wolves series and enjoy those as well! So if you love werewolves this series is for you! So now that I have plugged all her books in this review about Dream of Me I have decided that whatever Quinn Loftis wants to write about she will and she will do it well!  So this books not werewolves not vampires, not Fae or anything you would normally find. The Sandman, right totally different! I was down for how this could turn out. In Dream of Me the Sandman or Dair weaves dreams for important people. The Creator who sees all and knows all sends him to weave these dreams to show them the possibilities of what they might do.  It is still up to free will and there can be...
