*Please Note: The full version of this book contains more stories than the version I received. My version contained Till Death Do Us Part, Never Wake Me Up, Ember Aglow, Love to Live, The Cell, and Killing Love.* So I know my last post indicated that I don’t generally read […]

The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin

The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin

Content Warning: Death When I first requested to be allowed to read The Nature of Witches, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve long been a fan of books that have magic in them, and if they tie that magic to witches, I’m especially intrigued. So, I was super happy […]

Protecting the Single Mother by Leslie North

Protecting the Single Mother by Leslie North

Let me start by saying I don’t normally go for romance books – as in, if the primary genre is romance, I tend to stay away. But… I admit, coming from a military family and having military friends, I am a sucker for military/ex-military books, so I gave this one […]

Violet City by Page Morgan

Trust me […]

Prophet Reborn by Diane M. Johnson

Prophet Reborn by Diane M. Johnson

CW: Profanity, death, suicide, violence, religion, religious cult When I read Perfect Prophet last year, I kept hoping there would be a sequel. The book had left off perfectly for a sequel and while I had a feeling there would be one, I wasn’t positive. I was glad I was right. Prophet […]
