Crimson Reign by JT Cheyanne and VL Moon




         What’s my favorite word? SPOILERS, and yes every time I say it I say it in my best River Song voice (shout out to my fellow Whovians!!).  Back to the subject at hand…

Synopsis:

        A pulse of light preceded the gift of life breathed into the coldest and darkest of souls. Bathed in the glow of celestial love and swathed in a blanket of black satin wings nestled a king among kings, a vampire born to destroy the decay threatening to eradicate the race he was destined to save.

      An angelic heart torn by yearning, suffering and pain throbbed to the rhythm of the life he created; a life prophesied in the scriptures by the Creator’s own hand. A vow of servitude given in blood sealed the fate of a Seraphim's heart and tied it eternally to the creation he craves, protects…loves. 

       Ancient treaties are lost and reborn, rising from the ashes as the Nephilim ravage the vampire race. The deviant desire that soared in Malachi Denali's blood threatens to bring Rome to its knees when Malachi's world, his soul and his heart are brutally shattered and torn apart. 

       Will purity born of an angel's love be enough to calm the savage mind of Malachi Denali? Or will Laziel be doomed to a life of purgatory for loving the life he was gifted to create…

        This is not a HEA, or even a HFN....Who knows what will happen to seal their fate...only time will tell. Vampires, angels, demons and wolves together with love, betrayal, sadness and yearning make up the ongoing story that is... 

The Crimson Nights Saga.



REVIEW:

I, like many others, have loved Lachi and Laz for a very long time. When I found out we were finally going to get to read their story I was thrilled! Then when I got my hands on Crimson Reign and I devoured it. Each word pulling me further and further into this world. From the moment the angel breathed life into Malachi, watching their relationship touched my heart for so many reasons. Several times this book brought me to tears; I actually had to stop and walk away in order to catch my breath. 

There is a lot going on in this story, but JT and VL write it so well I never felt overwhelmed. They effortlessly blend the many characters and story lines so that we the reader have no problem keeping up.

Let’s talk about just a few of the character’s for a moment; Darklon LOVE to hate this guy! Roman, I was sure at first I would chalk up right next to Darklon, but I was pleasantly surprised. There is the fallen Arial, tortured soul, whose story I can’t wait to dive into. Tobias, a wolf thrust into the vampire world, and the human Kimberly. She has been used as a pawn by those who seek the King’s downfall. Also in the book are Copi and Vischeral; two policemen in Alaska one of whom as a connection to the King’s past. 

But there was one character, one that I was so moved by; they broke my heart. There are a couple of scenes that really had me sobbing. I don’t want to say too much, that way those who haven’t read this book yet (So go read it NOW) won’t have it spoiled, but I was torn about them as well. I love this character, yet at the same time I almost felt as if I were betraying another by doing so. If you read the book you will understand.

Let me finish by saying JT and VL are two of my favorite author’s for a reason. They create such beauty with their words, move me, and have me fall in love with these characters till I feel I will burst waiting for the next book, hint hint Ladies,* Winks*

Blog Tour- Double Full by Kindle Alexander








SYNOPSIS:

Up and coming football hero, Colton Michaels, makes a Hail Mary pass one night in the college locker room that results in the hottest, sexiest five days of his young life. However, interference after the play has him hiding his past and burying his future in the bottom of a bottle. While Colt seems to have it all, looks can be deceiving, especially when you’re trapped so far in a closet that you can’t see your way out. When ten years of living his expected fast-lane lifestyle lands him engaged to his manipulative Russian supermodel girlfriend, he decides it’s time to call a new play.

Jace Montgomery single-handily built the largest all-star cheerleading gym in the world, driven by a need to forget a life-altering encounter with a handsome quarterback a decade ago. His reputation as an excellent coach, hard-nosed business man, and savvy entrepreneur earned him respect in the sometimes catty world of competitive cheerleading. When Jace learns of his ex-lover’s plans to marry, his heart executes a barrel roll and his carefully-placed resolve tumbles down without a mat to absorb the shock. Can his island escape help him to finally let go of the past and move his life forward?



QUOTES:


“I’ve never gotten over you. Ever. Not one day passed that I didn’t think about you. For
me, you’re the love of my life. Wherever you are is exactly where I want to be"


"You were made for me, Jace Montgomery"



“Let me tell you what I am sure of, what I want. I want you to fuck me tonight. I want
you inside me. It’s my first time, but I know I liked your finger in my ass when we made out in
the locker room. How do you feel about that?”





"I just know what it’s like to have to deal with a heart broken by you...” Jace said quietly, looking over at Colt with deep, unguarded pain in his eyes. God, he hated that look"


"Last one in bed has to clean us up afterward,” Jace called out and took off running"


"I love you,” Colt declared against Jace’s lips. He truly meant those three little words.
There had never been any doubt in his mind Jace was the only man for him.
      “I love you, too.” Jace made Colt smile. He’d waited so long to hear those words from this man. Too long





Review:   LOTS OF SPOILERS!!!

Let’s just start by saying from the VERY beginning of the book it grabs your attention, and gives you the need for a cold shower!! *fans self* Yes there is smokin’ hot sex in this book, but it isn’t what it is all about.  At start of the story Colton Michaels is college football hero, on his way to the NFL when he decides to finally admit to himself what he truly wants, Jace Montgomery. Jace is a member of the cheerleading squad, but unlike Colt does not hide who he is. After a whirlwind spring break vacation, our guys hit a massive road block, namely Larry Michaels, Colts vicious homophobic father. Who not only beats his own son but threatens the same treatment for Jace as well. In order to protect the man he has fallen in love with, Colt sacrifices his hopes and dreams by severing ties with Jace. 
 
           Over the next ten years both men lived separate very different lives. Jace opened his own cheerleading gym, becoming one of the most sought after coaches in the world. With all his success Jace could never fill the void left by Colt. 

After being first pick in the NFL draft Colt spent years trying to numb the pain of what had lost by sinking into a life of alcohol. Spending years surrounded by a blackmailing succubus a.k.a. fiancé and his money grubbing leech of a father he finally decides to get the help he desperately needs.

       Thanks to fate, and an ESPN interview the men finally make their way back to each other, when the unthinkable happens. Want to know what? Buy the book, ha-ha, sorry I won’t ruin it for you! Let’s just say these two will not let anything come between them again. 

We are also introduced to a very interesting character, Mitch Knox. Who I hope to learn more about, Hint Hint Kindle!! Overall another great accomplishment for one of my favorite author’s Kindle Alexander. Who once again had me falling in love with her characters.

Stripped Bare by Susan Mac Nicol

How do we start our posts? Yes you guessed it SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS……you have been warned!!


Let’s start with the Blurb:

Though two years past, Matthew Langer is still getting over the death of a loved one. He’s steered clear of serious relationships, but when he meets the irascible, dirty mouthed and tempestuous Shane Templar that decision has never been harder. Shane is sexy, warm and funny, and Matthew finds himself trying like hell not to fall for him. Especially when Shane, with his quick wit and hacking skills, is quick to stand up for justice and avenge wrongs. Then Shane strikes at the wrong target, and Matthew realizes just how far he’s already fallen. At the threat of losing for good yet another man who has broken through his armour, Matthew finds his heart stripped bare. He must face the demons of his soul or a future without love.


Have to add this, here is the trailer to the book


   Now on to the review:

I have to say in most books you have to have a “conflict” in order to have an interesting story plot. This book definitely had more than one; it kept you on your toes, just when you thought that this is the “happy ending” you are thrown for a loop. Matthew and Shane are two men who are both strong and stubborn. The moment I fell in love with them I would get so frustrated at the same time. Shane, that naughty man, first off I love a hacker, but there were a couple times I wanted to tie his fingers together LOL. They seem to get him into trouble! And Matthew my heart broke for him over and over again, but he too drove me crazy. He would shut down and close Shane out. So needless to say they belong together!  Over all a great read.

This is the first book I have read by Susan Mac Nicol, and it won’t be the last.
