Review: Whisper of Dreams by Keta Diablo

Whisper of DreamsWhisper of Dreams by Keta Diablo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another saga with Calypso causing problems, silly cat. I bet those aren't words you expected to hear about an erotica book! *wink* But I digress from my review...

The second in the Dreams trilogy (don't forget to read Cradle of Dreams) I was hooked right from the beginning. You start all sweet and kindness at the antique store with Mrs. Higgins, Sahara, and Elias tending to a new box of books, that was just purchased at a recent sale. Calypso, the silly cat got in the way and ran into the back room with Sahara right on her little paws. She thinks the pesky cat is outside so she steps out onto the porch and...

The book shifts to a woman who needs help from a man, and the man wanting to have justice brought upon her. Holy smokes (grab the fire extinguisher ladies and gents) does the heat get turned on from there. Elijah (Eli) is out for justice and he certainly gets everything he's thought about these past years, but Sarah has no idea what she's done. Sarah didn't realize how much a past transgression changed her destiny. When Eli gets Sarah naked HOLY HELL! Yummy, Yummy, Yummmy!

If you're looking for a quick, spicy read, I'd try this book. I'd read the first one too - though not necessarily needed for this one, it can be read as a stand-alone.

I'd like to thank the author for the complimentary copy so I could give an honest review of this book.

Excerpt:

Sarah came to her feet and faced him. “Very well, let us get on with it then.”
He nodded toward the items at her feet. “Choose your poison, nightingale.”
Heat crept up her cheeks and she hoped her sarcasm was not lost on him. “I could not begin to know. I will allow you to choose since you seem to have experience in debauchery.”
 “The quirt will do. Think on the bright side, nightingale, you might enjoy it.”
She pinned him with a lethal glare before he bent down and retrieved the riding crop from the floor. Tapping it against the palm of his hand, his eyes had glazed over with lust when they met hers again. “Take down your hair. Sarah.”
Her skin tingled, along with every nerve and cell in her body. His deep, lust-filled voice drew her like a magnet, not to mention his exquisite build sent her libido into tremors. Gone was the gangly youth she remembered. In his place, stood a man who exuded strength and mastery. And he wanted her. Without thought, her fingers fumbled with the pins in her hair. She removed them, allowing her long tresses to tumble over her collarbones and fall to her waist.
Eli’s fixed gaze and quick intake of air left her weak-kneed. “The dress, take it off.”
This cannot be happening. In a fog, she walked toward him and presented him her back. “The buttons…I need assistance.”

Review: I Am the Night by Karpov Kinrade

I Am the Night (The Night Firm, #3)I Am the Night by Karpov Kinrade
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The final pieces of the puzzle are finally laid out in front of you as Eve sees what/who she really is. With the help of the Night brothers, she'll do what it takes to save the world in which she lives, and is the very essence of her being.

I loved reading this book, being able to feel the intensity in which the author has so carefully crafted was intense. Eve is a woman who needs to get things done in situations that others would crumble under.

Characters, writing style, world development - check, check, check! Karpov Kinrade is a triple threat!

Review: A Darker Shade of Evil

A Darker Shade of EvilA Darker Shade of Evil by Keta Diablo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a read! Absolutely loved getting everyone's perspective on the demons and devils. I really enjoyed Keta Diablo's take of demons - not only demons on the loose but also the internal demons we all must bear.

I think that the steam that came off Cecily’s and Marcel could burn you to your soul. She knows (with the deep-down bond that twins have) that something was off about how her brother Calder died, but no one would give her any information. It was up to her and she took the initiative to figure it out. She definitely wasn't expecting the answers that she got. I love how this story gripped me from the first page and kept me paging through to the end.

Thanks for a great read, not only from Keta but from all the authors, good job.

Review: Cradle of Dreams

Cradle of DreamsCradle of Dreams by Keta Diablo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kendra's life is about to change unexpectedly and only the cat knows how. :)

Everybody thinks he's dead, but when he walks through the door and takes Kendrick by the arm, everything changes. Roane can't stand to know that his beloved Kendrick is betrothed to another. He is all set to punish her for ever thinking of another man but punishment is all thrown to the wind when things heat up.

I loved this book, it was short, sweet, and hot til the end. I can't wait to see what book 2 has to offer. Yum. Make sure you have a fire extinguisher handy.

Review: I Am the Storm by Karpov Kinrade

I Am the Storm (The Night Firm #2)I Am the Storm by Karpov Kinrade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another win for Karpov Kinrade. Picking up from where Eve left us hanging in the last book you are thrown immediately into a whirlwind of suspense and intrigue. Will Liam be charged, who's really behind the whole theft of the dragon egg? You learn a little about the controversy of philosophy as it relates to real life. KK has you questioning everything you thought you knew and leaves you with a better understanding of yourself. It's not just a fantastic story but it's a work of art.

I love how real the characters become, how you can relate to Eve's dilemma of who to care for, who to love. It's the perfect balance of story, feeling, and character.

I will admit though that at first, it was hard to get your head around the love square (it has four sides, not three) going on and who Eve has done with whom. But once you get into the story a bit more you can get your bearings.

I received a complimentary ARC from Karpov Kinrade

***************


*Independent Author Network Book Awards Finalist*


Season Scrimshaw isn't selling the land her parents left her when they died, not even to the gorgeous Rann Brogan who saved her life in the forest. Especially not after she finds out he was in the woods surveying her property.

Rann's mother, Charlotte, owns a large land development company. She wants Season’s property to put up a strip of luxurious, lakefront condos and Charlotte always gets what she wants. She sends Rann on a mission to seal the deal. To say Rann and his mother have had a normal mother/son relationship would be a stretch…a big stretch, but he’s always done her bidding.

This time it’s different. Rann hasn’t been able to get the beautiful Season out of his mind. While on his mission to secure the property, he realizes how much Season loves the land, and…he realizes somewhere along the line, Season has stolen his heart.

He soon discovers his mother will go to any length to get what she wants…including murder. Lives spiral out of control, secrets, and lies take center stage. Rann is forced to choose between his mother and the woman he loves.

And he’s forced to become as dangerous and as lethal as Charlotte.  

Love a lot of thriller with your romance? Love a lot of romance with your thriller? How about suspense, betrayal, and murder?

If so, then Season, Unforgettable is for you.

* A stand-alone Contemporary Thriller/Romantic Suspense.
