And a bit about the book...


She was born of dark magick. She was destined to bring order to the chaos.


Princess Kumud Maudlin of Treoles spent twenty-three years as a prisoner in her own castle until one fateful night her sister rescued her. Now she must learn how to control the wayward magick swirling in her body and exact revenge on those who have wronged her. The problem: their faces are a blur and war is brewing in all of Dramolux with Treoles at its center. The Dark Sorceress is advancing rapidly toward Treoles with a vengeance that mirrors Kumud’s.


Will Kumud be able to bring the order or will Treoles fall before it can retaliate?

I’ve Been Reading. Have You?

The past few years I’ve been keeping a bit better track of what I’m reading and when. Primarily through the Reading Challenge on GoodReads. In previous years I’ve been truly horrible at keeping up-to-date with my records, but this year, oh, this year I’ve been marking my books as I start reading them and checking them off when I’m finished. The year started off with a bang - the books of The Atlantis Grail series by Vera Nezarian: Qualify, Compete, Win, and Survive. 

Since then, I’ve run through a few re-reads, some beloved, some simply enjoyable. For the most part though I’ve been reading new titles, both from favourite authors and new (to me) ones. 

I’ve read a lot of Nora Roberts’ backlist titles. Can I just say - I loved The MacGregors. 



I stormed through the books of the Dragon Blood series by Lindsay Buroker. I really enjoyed them, and my first foray into the steampunk genre. 


I’ve previously loved R.E. Butler’s various dragon series but decided to give Were Zoo series. To be honest, I found them highly entertaining. 

After seeing that The Cowgirl’s Secret Love (book 2, The Colemans of Heart Falls series) was scheduled to release in April, I realized I’d actually fallen behind on the Heart Falls series books. So, me being me, I started at the beginning of the Vivian Arend’s Six Pack Ranch series and read all the way through. Not only do I thoroughly enjoy the ranch romances, I’m also tickled reading about locations I’ve personally visited. 

  


Michelle M. Pillow took me diving into the depths with her Lords of the Abyss books. I haven’t read a lot of stories about mermen before. I was pleasantly surprised by the books. 

Princess and I marathoned through the Harry Potter movies, then I decided to start re-reading the books. I’m not quite marathoning through the books but I’m making my way through them all once again as the mood strikes. Currently, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is one of the books I’m working on. 


And then it was back to one of my personal favourite authors: Christine Feehan. She began her Shadow Riders series in 2016 with the book of the same title, Shadow Rider. Since then three more books have followed and the fifth book in the series, Shadow Flight released today. (May 5, 2020) I read through the first four books a couple weeks ago for the first time, and today I’m reading the new one. #ReleaseDayReading 


So what have you been reading? Have you discovered any new authors? What’s the best thing you’ve read so far in 2020? What’s the best thing you’ve read since (sorta) quarantine began? 

... coming soon - a complete list of the titles I’ve read in January, February, March and April 2020.

COVER REVEAL - Irrevocably Claimed

 
Release Date: November 6, 2015
Genre: Erotic/Erotic Romance



One Forbidden Night:  Justin has had a crush on his best friend’s little sister, Kim, since high school. When she shows up on his doorstep, offering herself to him for one night, will he be able to say no? Or will he give in to one forbidden night with the woman who has haunted his dreams for years?

Country Metal:  Sweet as iced tea, her life was the very anthem of a country song. Blue skies, cornfields and cotton feed her soul.
Tattooed and pierced, he’s the lead singer for Violent Standard. His idea of country is a trek through Central Park.
His band is in town to film their newest music video. Can heavy metal and a country twang blend into a perfect harmony? Will he claim the southern belle before the last note fades?

The Encounter:  Jena was Holly’s best friend when they started high school. By graduation, Holly avoided Jena at all cost. Their friendship had become confusing, the emotions so complex, and at times unnerving, that Holly couldn’t even risk being near Jena.
Seven years later, unhappily married Holly is thrown together with Jena at a bachelorette party. Was forbidden desire beneath their unsettling friendship all along? And will Holly surrender at last to Jena’s pursuit?

Lovers’ Sweet Discovery:  Claire Vanderling has reached middle age but doesn't feel like she has anything to show for it. As the manager of a prosperous art gallery, she works hard, but her personal life is practically non-existent. Her son Thomas has graduated college and is about to start a new IT company in Japan with his best friend. She might not see him for six months. So she arranges for them to have one more trip to a family beach home on the Hamptons. When her son's best friend shows up, she finds much more than just a simple vacation—she discovers a passion long buried inside of her. Jacob Tanner is excited to be starting a new company with his best friend. He wanted to go directly to Japan to get settled, but Tom insisted that they spend time this summer with Tom's mother. He had met Claire once before while he and Tom were still in school together. When he sees her again, he is surprised to find that he cannot take his eyes off of her. How had he not realized how sexy Claire was? As desire flares up and passion is unleashed, will they give in to their bodies' demands or will they be able to resist lovers’ sweet discovery?

Zeke’s Eden: Following Daddy’s rules has always been easy.
Smile. Nod. Repeat.
Until I met Zeke.
Dark. Dirty. Sinner.
A hungry beast, released from his cage.
And I’m on the menu.
Tonight, I’m Zeke’s Eden.

His sugar.
His whore.
Daddy’s little girl is all grown up…

Threepeat: Madison’s best friend, Lillian, is constantly sharing the details of her perfectly life with husband, Adam, including her off the charts sex life. It’s great, except that Madison has been harboring a secret fantasy: she doesn’t just want to hear about the great sex that Lillian and Adam are having, she wants to experience it for herself…with them.
One night after drinks, the three friends agree to a deal: One night. The three of them. Together. And anything goes.
Will a night of heated passion be exactly what they all need? Or will it go too far and destroy everything they have?

And more...

But the world has changed.
 
Most of the populace has been wiped out by a deadly disease, and the rules of society have regressed. But that’s not the worst of it. When her group is kidnapped by a band of rogue vampires, Maylin realizes the decline of the human population has brought other races to the forefront—races she never knew existed. And now they’re all battling for survival and power.
 
In his father’s absence, Thane Warwick must lead his people. He has two priorities: find his father and find humans who can supply blood to his tribe. Immediately intrigued by his latest captive, he becomes interested in Maylin for more than just her blood, but he soon discovers that he must make a choice between his father and her.
 
Despite their attraction, Maylin and Thane each have an agenda, and only one can be the victor.
 
VAMPIRE’S BANE is the first book in the VAMPIRE’S BANE series. While it does end at a natural turning point in the heroine’s journey, it is an ongoing story, and not all questions will be answered. You will need to read this series in order.
