him at the Valentine’s Day Bachelor Auction that he realized the
feeling might be mutual. Although a relationship didn’t initially

the most protective men in Celebration Township, so when his neighbor

catch any signs of her withdrawal.
Alesandra Findley moved
away from Celebration when she was four years old and was told that
her mother had died when she was young. She’s shocked to learn from
her brother that he knew their mother had been alive the past
twenty-five years and neither he nor her father had shared the
information with her.
When Alesandra returns
to Celebration to learn about the mother she lost years ago, Levi is
there to lend his guidance, support, and encouragement. The two of
them immediately connect in ways neither of them expected.
Levi will need to learn
to live with his guilt while Alesandra learns the truth about her
mother. When it’s time for Alesandra to return to her life in New

and glitz be enough for her?

Deklan Kelly comes from
a family of well-known attorneys, and growing up his parents told him
that’s what he wanted to be, too. Privately, he wished he could
spend his days sketching and painting the beauty of life instead of
wheeling and dealing with dregs of humanity.
Sky Clarke hides behind
the walls of her families’ home protecting women and children from
abusive partners. She is devoted and passionate to her cause, and
will do anything for her clients, even break the law to protect them.
What she won’t do is put up with annoying attorneys.
When Sky finds Deklan
innocently sketching on her property, the two of them get thrown
together into a spiral of events that will keep them both on their
toes.
Will Deklan finally be
able to remove the mask and be the man he truly wants to be for Sky,

afraid to remove her own mask?

Series.
 
 
Blessings and Beans
The Celebration Series Book 12 (Thanksgiving)
 
Hope Wells is a
lifetime resident of Celebration Township, and lives on coffee fumes
and loves stories at her downtown store, Beans and Books. As each one
of her friends has found love, she’s been excited but secretly
envious. As much as she wants to find a man, she knows that the odds
are stacked against her, not with the medical issue she has kept
hidden from everyone.
Aaron Findley was born
in Celebration but left when he was a boy. A few months back, he
returned after his mother passed away, and even the race cars he
drives couldn’t get him out of town fast enough. His sister,
Alesandra might enjoy the little po-dunk town, but he prefers bright
lights and beautiful women hanging off of his arms after he finishes
a race.
Six weeks before
Thanksgiving, Aaron crashes his racecar and lands in the hospital in
serious condition. When he is discharged three weeks later, he finds
that he has fewer friends than he originally thought, and a career
that went up in flames like his car. His only choice is to convalesce
at his sister’s house in Celebration. Grumpy and bored, Aaron finds
himself hiding at the small coffee shop for hours as he comes to
terms with his new life.

Velevet & Vows
The Celebration Series Book 13 (Finale- Christmas)
 
The epic finale of the
Celebration Series is finally here. Celebrate Christmas once again
with the couple that started it all: Casey Lowe and Thad Wagner.
Velvet & Vows
starts out twenty days before the wedding and there is a lot to be
done. With wedding showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties, the
final dress fittings, holiday preparations and the last of the
details for the ceremony and reception, Celebration is crackling with
energy–but it’s not all good.
With a few
misunderstandings, many secrets and a serial arsonist running rampant
in the town, the days leading up to the wedding are far more
stressful than Casey and Thad ever planned for it to be. It will take
the entire town to tell this story as we pass from one leading
character to another.
Prepare yourself for
this one-of-a-kind novel that will bring insight into every character
you’ve fallen in love with during the series, and even a few
characters you’ve never heard from firsthand.
 
NOTE: While Velvet & Vows can be a standalone novel, there have been twelve
other books in this series before it. This book incorporates all
twelve of those couples into one story and might be slightly hard to
follow if you have not read the other books.

He likes to be in control…
It’s like this: I’m the hottest restauranteur on the west coast. I work hard, play hard, and love my family. I’m also the guy on the receiving end of some unwelcome threats and fixation. Then Pascale Nichols walks back into my life, and I forget about everything but her. They say lightening never strikes twice, but she’s the one that got away. She’s also, I soon discover, the one my family *secretly* hired to protect me. Am I mad? Hell, yes. Am I game to play along? You bet.
She’s in over her head…
Everyone knows and loves Ethan Auprince. With his sexy-as-sin dimples and crazy likeability, he’s always the center of attention. I’ve been tasked with protecting celebrities, bigwigs, and high-ranking officials, but when I come face-to-face with the man I spent one incredible summer with, I’m in trouble. A careless mistake on my last assignment cost me, and now Ethan is looking at me like he wants to devour me, not cooperate with my subtle instructions while I work under the guise of his restaurant manager.
My reputation is at risk. His safety is on the line. But worse, were falling in love again.

Synopsis

Abby Callier is more in love with Shakespearean heroes than any real man, and she’s beginning to wonder if there is life for her outside the pages of a book. It doesn’t help that her esteemed parents tend to view her as they would one of their science experiments gone wrong. On the eve of finishing her dissertation, she escapes her staid existence to live in the house she inherited from her Great Aunt Evie in the small town of Echo Springs, Colorado. Because, let’s face it, when a woman starts comparing her life to horror films, it might be time for a break.

Sheriff Nate Barnes believes in law and order and carefully building the life you want. In his spare time, he has been remodeling his house in the hope that one day it will be filled with the family he makes. But Nate doesn’t like drama or complications and tends to avoid them at all costs. And yet, when Miss Abigail Callier, his newest neighbor, beans him with a nine iron, he can’t help but wonder if she might just be the complication he’s been searching for all along. It doesn’t hurt that he discovers a journal hidden away by the previous tenant and decides to use Old Man Turner’s advice to romance Abby into his life.

Abby never expected her next-door neighbor, the newly dubbed Sheriff Stud Muffin, to be just the distraction her world needed. The problem is she doesn’t know whether she should make Echo Springs her home, or if this town is just a stopover point in her life’s trajectory. And she doesn’t want to tell Nate that she might not be sticking around—even though she should because it’s the right thing to do, the honest thing—because then all the scintillatingly hot kisses with the Sheriff will come to an abrupt halt. Did she mention that he’s a really great kisser?

Amazon

 Enjoy this peek inside:

Abby opened the door to two delivery men wearing Styman and Sons logos on their polos. Greg Styman Junior and Teddy Styman were the sons part of the company. They were both relatively attractive guys in a down-home Mayberry type of way, and were young—far, far too young. While Abby might be nearing her twenty-ninth birthday, these two reminded her of students—fresh-faced, with that innocent wide-eyed wonder of youth that people tended to lose by their mid-twenties.

One of the things that had drawn her to the local appliance shop, instead of heading into Denver and one of those big-box stores to make her purchase, had been their willingness to haul away the old freezer free of charge. Styman and Sons would strip it and refurbish any of the old parts that weren’t rusted or still viable and resell them online. It made Abby feel like she was doing something good for the environment because the whole thing wouldn’t end up in a landfill.

Abby was standing on her porch, watching the two guys pull her handy-dandy new deepfreeze from the truck, when she was flattened.

She’d barely had time to issue an umphff before she was on her back on the ivory wooden porch, a hulking brute covered in dark black fur towering over her. She lay on her back, trying to assess the damage as a large, wet, pink tongue slobbered over her face. From this angle, she could tell there were a few parts of the roof overhang that needed to be fixed before winter arrived.

Her hands slid into the soft, short fur, attempting to move the massive beast as it said hello with an almost rabid enthusiasm. Abby would have had better luck moving one of the fourteen footers nearby.

“Rufus, stupid mutt, get off her.” Abby heard the deep baritone filled with abject horror.

Rufus, the mammoth Great Dane, listened about as well as a toddler playing with his favorite toy and, instead of moving off her, decided he really wanted to cuddle and lie on top of her. Her breath whooshed out of her again at the dog’s impressive weight. He had to outweigh her by twenty pounds.

“Jesus, Rufus.” Nate Barnes tugged and yanked the hulking beast of a dog off Abby’s prone form. Rufus seemed to think that meant Nate wanted to play and wrestle around. They skirmished on her porch for a minute or so, until Rufus spied a rabbit and took off after the poor creature.

She was starting to push herself up, mentally assessing the damage, when Nate held out a hand to her, a mask of apology adding a deep line to his furrowed brow. “I’m so sorry. Are you all right? He’s harmless, really. The lamebrain just thinks he’s more of a lap dog and doesn’t realize how big he is.”

Abby felt a few brain cells faint as she accepted his help, placing her hand in his much longer one, noticing that the fingers were rough with calluses.

“It’s okay,” she said as she gained her feet, only to be shocked—and a little turned on—as he ran his hands over her, checking for injuries. As much as she tried to rationalize that it was a police-style frisking, a low burn ignited in her belly. Before she did something entirely stupid, like invite him in where he could give her body a private inspection, she batted his hands away. “No harm done. He seems like a big lover.”

Nate smiled sheepishly as he retreated a step, and it did nothing to lessen his impact.

She almost sawed her tongue in half. See? I shouldn’t talk to people, ever. Especially not after Sheriff Stud Muffin put his hands all over her. The action had short-wired and fried her brain, leading to her precarious foot-in-mouth disease. As if he knew she had been talking about him, Rufus loped back up her porch, making a beeline directly for her or, better yet, her crotch, as he planted his wet nose there by way of greeting.

“Rufus, get off her. Jesus, I’m sorry. He’s normally not like this,” Nate explained, more than a little flummoxed and embarrassed as he tried to yank him off.

It was nice to know the guy was human. After their initial and rather violent meeting, she’d wondered if he was a superhero in disguise. She had hit him with the golf club with her full force and the guy had barely flinched.

A Parliament of Crows
by Alan M. Clark
Genre: Southern Gothic Crime, Horror
 
In A Parliament of Crows, the three Mortlow sisters are prominent
American educators of the nineteenth century, considered authorities
in teaching social graces to young women. They also pursue a career
of fraud and murder. Their loyalty to one another and their need to
keep their secrets is a bond that tightens with each crime, forcing
them closer together and isolating them from the outside world. Their
ever tightening triangle suffers from madness, religious zealotry and
a sense of duty warped by trauma they experienced as teenagers in
Georgia during Sherman’s March to the Sea. As their crimes come back
to haunt them and a long history of resentments toward each other
boils to the surface, their bond of loyalty begins to fray. Will duty
to family hold or will they turn on each other like ravening crows?

 
 
Alan M. Clark grew up in Tennessee in a house full of bones and old
medical books. As a writer and illustrator, he is the author of
sixteen published books, including 11 novels, a lavishly illustrated
novella, four collections of fiction, and a nonfiction full-color
book of his artwork. His illustrations have appeared in books of
fiction, non-fiction, textbooks, young adult fiction and children’s
books. Awards for his work include the World Fantasy Award and four
Chesley Awards. Mr. Clark’s company, IFD Publishing, has released 42
titles of various editions, including traditional books, both
paperback and hardcover, audio books, and ebooks by such authors as
F. Paul Wilson, Elizabeth Engstrom, and Jeremy Robert Johnson.

My Review

I started reviewing books many years ago. A friend encouraged me to start a blog. I never looked back. When I spotted this book on a friend’s blog, I was intrigued. Anyone who writes reviews knows what a one star rating is like to write. I haven’t written one in a long time. Probably because I do more research before choosing to read a book now.

When I read the description I knew I had to read this.  A blogger posts a one star review on their blog.  Something horrible comes of that review. The author takes it personal.

I remember one of the first one star reviews I wrote. It was for a review book I accepted from an author. I contacted the author to let them know what my rating would be. They argued with me in several emails, saying I didn’t get what they wrote. I did, though. I explained why I gave it the rating I did but they continued to argue with me. So, that review wasn’t posted. I knew the emails would continue and I couldn’t win with the author. I’m tougher now and wish I’d published that review. It was an honest one and wasn’t mean. I just didn’t want the hassle of dealing with an author that couldn’t accept my rating.

I thought I knew what I was getting when I started reading this short story. Not what I got, for sure. In a good way though. I felt unsettled from the get go. Knew something was off. Thought I knew what that was. Boy, was I wrong. The Behrg socked it to me. What a twisted bit of fun.

Synopsis

Every action has a consequence. But when Li posts a one-star review of a novel on her book blog, the results are far more frightening than she could ever have imagined.

Not every story was meant to have a happy ending.

ONE STAR is a previously unpublished horror short story, being released in The Behrg’s upcoming short story collection–“The Passengers You Cannot See.” It is the author’s love letter to book bloggers and reviewers, and thus is being offered as a free download to any book reviewer in part to thank all those who have been a part of the author’s journey. And if you haven’t yet been a part, there’s no better time than now to jump in that car and ride along. Oh, the vistas you will see.

My 56 for this week is from:

Teeth In The Mist

  by Dawn Kurtagich

Genre: YA / Fantasy / Retelling / Horror

There was nothing on page 56 so I used an excerpt from page 65 in the Paperback.

A gargoyle leers down at them from one corner of the ceiling. Roan shudders. Never before has she seen one so realistically sculpted, nor indoors. Used to ward off evil in holy places, they are usually placed outside the dwelling.

I can’t wait to sink my teeth into this one. It sounds chilling and perhaps a bit gothic.

And that cover!!! What do you think?

Synopsis

Before the birth of time, a monk uncovers the Devil’s Tongue and dares to speak it. The repercussions will be felt for generations…

Sixteen-year-old photography enthusiast Zoey has been fascinated by the haunted, burnt-out ruins of Medwyn Mill House for as long as she can remember–so she and her best friend, Poulton, run away from home to explore them. But are they really alone in the house? And who will know if something goes wrong?

In 1851, seventeen-year-old Roan arrives at the Mill House as a ward–one of three, all with something to hide from their new guardian. When Roan learns that she is connected to an ancient secret, she must escape the house before she is trapped forever.

1583. Hermione, a new young bride, accompanies her husband to the wilds of North Wales where he plans to build the largest water mill and mansion in the area. But rumors of unholy rituals lead to a tragic occurrence and she will need all her strength to defeat it.

Three women, centuries apart, drawn together by one Unholy Pact. A pact made by a man who, more than a thousand years later, may still be watching…

Genre: YA / Apocalyptic / Horror

Synopsis

Young Adult, Apocalyptic, Survival, Horror

The end of the world? That’s the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters and deep philosophical exercises in school. No need to sweat it. So when sixteen-year-old Tess’s doomsday-dad builds a bomb shelter in their suburban backyard, everyone thinks he’s gone crazy….

…Until fire rains down from the sky, sinking whole cities into colossal craters and setting much of the world ablaze.

Tess’s dad gives her a few short minutes to gather her emergency bag and her freaked-out kitten, then leads her outside and into the underground shelter. Terrified, the last thing she expects is for him to leave her there all alone, but he has no choice—he must find her missing brother.

Before leaving, he makes Tess promise to keep the hatch door shut, not to open it for anyone but him, and to stay put until he returns.

But he forgot to tell her one thing: What is she supposed to do if he never comes back?

I added this book back in January of 2015. I loved Angela’s Zombie West series so I had to grab this. Now I’ll finally read it.
