What an excellent read! Iām always happy when Sherwood returns to some of my favorite universes and characters. So when I see a crossover story, Iām thrilled.
Adopt a Vampire (a Ross Young & Unholy Trifecta Crossover ) by AJ Sherwood is an entertaining and highly recommended read, especially if youāre a fan of both series like me.
Vampire Jessie Hunt is clueless about vampire life, just trying to get by not hunting or hurting anyone. Itās not going well for him. Until he runs into the local pack of werewolves who decides heās in need of some serious care and support.
And itās Alpha Barrett Walker sees in Jesse something more.
This is a delightful, sweet and funny crossover romance. Full of great new characters and old faces stopping in as support and laughter.
I absolutely love this , and if youāre a fan of these series and the author, you will too.
Newly turned vampire Jesse Hunt has been spotted by two werewolves! Should he:
-Run
-Fight
-Ask for noms
Barrett Walker, alpha of the local pack, has two options upon meeting the starving but sweet Jesse! Should he:
-Hand him over to the local vampire clan
-Adopt him
Barrettās in favor of adoption but can adoption include smexy bite bite times too?

Another new book, another new to me author , series and universe to explore. What fun!
Several great elements here that I love. Lorelei Clay is an enigma. Sheās powerful but exactly where she draws the power from or what she is, well, here, thereās only the tiniest bit of clues.
I love a good mystery.
The town itself is another. Its history is part of the narrative and twines itself perfectly with the mystery and Loreleiās investigation into the missing girl and her own discoveries of the community around her.
Chase has created in Lorelei Clay an intriguing older woman, one of tightly controlled emotions and magic. I instantly connected with her, the ghosts of the crumbling castle sheās renovating, and the weirdness of the small town community that keeps inserting itself into her isolation.
I can see myself gobbling up these books like the best book binge evah.
Love the covers. It seems that the publisher has a similar style for its authors.
Now onto the next.
A definite winner. Check it out. Oh and no romance, so no spice. But ghosts and a mystery. Great characters.
She isnāt even like other supernaturals. Her specialties are the nightmares of the living, communication with the dead, and cooking bacon until itās golden brown and perfectly crispyāno magic required.
Six months ago she moved to the ultimate fixer upper, a monstrosity from the Gilded Age that borders the local cemetery in the sleepy Pennsylvania town of Fairhaven. Lorelei is content to spend the next few years in solitude, renovating the house and avoiding humanity, until a missing young woman disrupts her plans. Loreleiās search for the teenager means crossing paths with the residents sheās successfully avoided so far, including the human police chief, the coven, a cursed vampire, the assassins guild, the werewolf pack, and the mysterious and infuriatingly alluring owner of The Devilās Playground, an elegant nightclub that caters to the local supernatural clientele.
Lorelei plans to find the girl quickly and return to the privacy of her castle walls before anyone learns her secrets, but you know what they say about the best laid plansā¦
Dead to the World is the first book in the Crossroads Queen urban fantasy series.
Sam Burns fantastic series, The Summertide Chronicles, comes to an end, not with a bang but with wedding, which is attended by all the other characters and couples.
Was it a great finale? Yes. Sticking with the theme and incredible complexity of this series and characters, it is. Burns may not have written a story that explosively dynamic in its entirety but its narrative is still powerful in its own way, deeply satisfying and compelling to the end.
Mt. Slate is shaking the earth, threatening to destroy the entire world, unless the four families gathering together there can find a way to make it stop.
Kit Moonstrikerās entire life has revolved around The Plan, one he and his crystal, Nikka, have made/foreseen to keep Mt Slateās from shaking apart and the world saved. It all comes down now to Aubrey, an orphan raised apart from the families.
Everything about the story is so different and beautifully written. Kitās story is further explained and more importantly, why all those decisions were made by himself are now revealed. And Aubreyās history comes into full view, for himself too. His lack of bonding with a crystal, his family connections, and his emotional perspective on life and family.
Having the two men working together, discussing their own lives and their misconceptions about each other, it really lets the reader into their growing relationship and intimacy.
Itās also a slow melding of big moments and storylines as another huge aspect of this story emerges during this journey of theirs.
Burnsā fantastic story swells to a close with a sense of wonder, many āah haā moments and scenes of love and joy.
It makes sense when you have a series where the characters are not just magical people but beings who are sentient crystals and even shifters. What an incredible series this has been. I truly love it and could have stayed for many more stories.
Itās fitting that we end on a wedding. A great satisfying sendoff.
If you are looking for a beautifully crafted, outstanding piece of fantasy fiction, grab up The Summertide Chronicles by Sam Burns. Itās one of my favorite series and one Iām highly recommending!
Iāve spent the better part of a decade trying to save the world. Twice a century, Mount Slate threatens to erupt, and for my entire life, the four families in charge havenāt seemed to care about their impending doom.
So it fell to me to try to fix things.
To make peace.
Me, a man whose greatest skill is pissing people off so much that they challenge me to a duel, and then killing them in that duel.
Now the moment is here, and my clever stone is telling me that one manāa sweet, innocent, infuriating judgmental bastardāis the only one whoās capable of saving the world. And I have to help him do it.
Iām starting to wonder if the world is even worth saving.
Moonstriker is the last in a series of four books, starring one cynical not-quite-assassin, one ray of sunshine, and one very grumpy mountain. It both Aubrey and Kitās HEA, as well as the conclusion of the overall series arc.
The Hidden City Supernatural Sleuth is a series that just gets better with each increasingly strange and complicated story that Hignett lays out for her characters, especially the severely damaged, deeply traumatized wolf shifter Daphne.
Living in a building in the middle of the slimiest of the slums of The Hidden City of Philadelphia, along with Chaos Goose, a female of unknown species living called Myf in the cupboard, and the deadliest sorceress of all times , Countess Ebadorathea Greenwood, her grandmother figure, living next door, Daphneās life is full of stress , confusion, and despair. Especially as sheās a new social worker for the paranormal children of the city with little support and resources.
Then dead bodies start to appear on her doorstep, delivered in a very strange and deliberate manner.
If I wasnāt already in love with this author, The Wolf Vs The Warlock would have cinched the deal. With a female character whoās constantly struggling with her trauma, trying to desperately make her job to reach/save the lost PNR children of The Hidden city, and fighting the supernatural battles that seem to follow her, itās a great series and story.
Daphneās a personality so consistently inconsistent, still deeply undefined, that we have no idea where her overall storyline is headed or exactly what actions sheās going to take in any given situation. Will she talk the being/person about changing their lives, go for the throat, or something shockingly wild, sort of whack a doodle. No clue. And it will be totally fine, with whatever is happening, astonishingly so.
This narrative approach works well so as others learn from her actions and comments, things that will inevitably leave hints to her past and present status, we learn as well.
The murder mysteries are key and lead to another interaction with Romeo, Warlock of the City and his coven.
The coven members are fascinating, Romeoās connection to Daphne deepens, and the plotting is better than ever. Itās complicated, full of beautifully crafted characters, vividly imagined scenes, and detailed locations and great dialogue.
Donāt miss out on the hilarious cast of characters that is given at the beginning of each story. Dry and funny.
Dave the ghoul is a new favorite. But the Countess is top tier.
āWho would leave a corpse on my doorstep as a gift?ā
The countess shrugged, an elegant hitch of her shoulders. āHave you expressed a desire for rotting flesh to anyone lately?ā
ā The Wolf Vs The Warlock: The Hidden City Supernatural Sleuth by Lauretta Hignett
I adore the Countess, she just gets ever more impressive and dangerous, of course.
This story is excellent is every way. Characters, plot, dialogue and moving forward an already amazing labyrinthine series arc. I highly recommend this series and book.
Nothing ruins your day more than a bloated, stinking corpse on your doorstep.
My natural optimism has taken a serious beating lately. Iāve been working my butt off, drafting a series of outreach programs to help the poor, lost supe kids of the Hidden City before they fall through the cracks in our society and end up in our Otherworld Child Protective system. Thereās one thing I desperately need, and thatās funding.
But thereās no money to be had. Nobody wants to invest in these kids; itās enough to break your heart. The rejection letters are ruining my morning, and thatās before I slipped on the bloated corpse at my front door.
Things take a turn when Iām summoned to a meeting with Mina, the matriarch of the Jupiter coven ā my ex-boyfriend’s mom. Mina’s offering me exactly what I need.
She’s got a job for me. One that I’m not sure if I want to do anymore.
The Wolf Vs The Warlock is book two in the Hidden City Supernatural Sleuth, a hot new Urban Fantasy series by bestselling author Lauretta Hignett.

A intriguing cover and woman necromancer as a main character were the first details about Fair Market Value (The Body Shop Book 1) by Hailey Edwards that grabbed my attention. Plus I hadnāt read anything by this writer yet, and thatās always a plus.
Then thereās that premise. Rent a body. Unfinished business? Necromancer Mary Frances Talbot, Frankie as sheās known, runs a body rental business out of her familyās auto repair shop in Savannah, Georgia. Tip toeing the legality of the Necromancer laws, sheās trying to make sure her siblings, who have their own paranormal stories and needs, stay safe and have a home.
The personal stories for the Mary family (how they got their name for instance) is horrific and well written. Their backgrounds are truly disturbing and scenes/nightmares are threads that continue to make an impact on the story and their current situation in various ways. Plus each sibling represents a different paranormal species which I thought was a very different element to include. Frankie is a necromancer, Josie is a dryad, and brother Matty is a Oneiros.
One thing I struggled with was the world building. I had no sense of structure, magical, political, or historical, to put this story into context. Thereās references to a Necromancer Committee and Laws but Edwards doesnāt lay out the foundation knowledge for the universe this is being played out in. Turns out,after research ,all this authorās series are set in the same universe but you have to be a reader of those books to be set up here.
Anyway, there no heat but a potential romance with a ex love now detective, Samuel Harrow of the Savannah Police Department. When one of her ārentalsā isnāt returned on time and becomes part of a crime, they reconnect.
The mystery or mysteries as they begin to add up are good ones. But the really interesting elements are the ghostly personalities who are āfamily ā or friends, how much they are part of Frankieās life, and the twists that pop up in the dramatic moments at the end.
Edwards appreciates historic cars and writes them with care into the story. Itās the same with other fine detail aspects of this novel. The siblings, Josie and Matty have strengths and individual poignancy layered between them. The dynamic between them is beautifully balanced and heartwarming. I canāt wait to see how this family develops further.
And the tension between Frankie and Samuel, which was left at an awkward place.
A definite recommendation and now onto the next book in the series.

Mary Frances TalbotāFrankieāis a necromancer, probably. Hard to say since she never met her parents. She can see the dead, talk to the dead, and a few other things that arenāt strictly legal. Itās fine. No worries. As long as she doesnāt get caught.
The whole not getting caught thing was going well until Samuel Harrow blew back into town wearing a Savannah Police Department uniform. He might be a witch, but he hates magic. Heās not a fan of Frankie either. Which explains why heās her ex.
When Frankieās less than legal side gigs result in dead vampires, she knows sheās in trouble. Big trouble. And thatās before Harrow offers to help. With him waving a Get Out of Jail Free card in her face, Frankie doesnāt have much choice but to accept.
But that doesnāt mean she has to forgive. Sheāll certainly never forget him breaking her heart or turning her over to the police or… Yeah. They were doomed from the start. Something tells her this investigation will be too.
Honestly, still thinking about the rating because the book and female character is so strange but Iām getting into it,as weirdly great as it is.
And she and the world is plenty different. Mostly itās her, Daphne, sheās plenty different, with two voices in her head, enough trauma to fill several oceans, and deadly skill sets that are still being revealed. Along with her pasts that were spent in other realms, alien hellish ones as a lost child.
Thereās the suspicious deadly brain Daphne, absolutely bloodthirsty. Then thereās heart Daphne, naive, obsessive, wanting to think better of others (even though she knows that they are evil). The conflict between these two is constantly ongoing and a real conversation.
Yes it takes time to get into this mess of a character and her situation but stick with it, she and the book is worth it.
Because the surprises will come nonstop as well.
Hignett does an excellent job with such a complicated character like Daphne, a wolf shifter whoās so severely traumatized by the years of abuse and sheer brutality of wandering through alien realms as a small child trying to escape and get home that her personality seems splintered. Or is it?
Each new encounter show the reader more of who she might be, whether sheās valiantly trying to make it through the day as a paranormal social worker, climbing over drugged vampires, and dealing with cranky co workers, or just barely staving off the darkness and nightmares of the past that constantly threatens her sanity. And itās terrifying.
From her hair that used to be brown, but has become lavender upon her return to the human world. Then there are here friends who have followed her to Philadelphia.
A goose, Dwayne whoās a God of Anarchy, a sort of grandmother a renowned āCountess Ebadorathea Greenwood, world class villain sorceress maybe, for starters.
Plus sheās on a mission of revenge after she gets settled in her new job, helping the unwanted, the troubled supernatural children of The Hidden City of Philadelphia, where those who are unwanted or considered trash go.
I got more and more convinced of her and the raw tragedy of those around her. Thatās there something so frightening about her that sheās become a walking daily affirmation, trying to keep herself positive, and often failing.
Daphne has become a fascinating puzzle of a great character. I canāt wait to see what she brings to the future and The Hidden City next.
Everyone thinks Iām sweet and innocent⦠but Iām the one who ate the big bad wolf.
Iāve been searching for a place that feels like home my whole life, and I think Iāve found it. Iām in the big city, on a mission to save vulnerable supernatural kids ā just like I used to be ā in my new job as an Otherworld Child Protection Caseworker.
Because after our magical apocalypse, there are a lot of kids that need saving. I just need to avoid Romeo Zarayan, the Lord of Shadows and heir to the Jupiter fortune.
Heās also the Warlock who murdered my Aunt. One day, when Iām strong enough, Iāll get my revenge.
When one of my clients ā a girl with strange-smelling blood ā goes missing, the hunt takes me a little too close to the Warlock for comfort. If I want to save my client, Iāll have to set aside my quest for vengeance and work with him.
But if I get the chance, I’ll kill him.
If he doesnāt kill me firstā¦

Things to get out of the way. Is there romance. No. A kiss maybe. Thatās it. Dragons? Yes, fantastic ones, a ton! Action scenes and flying! Spirits and ghosts? You bet! A expansive magical world thatās getting more complex and dangerous by the storyline and twists galore.
Iām honestly way ahead in the series because I canāt stop reading them , a real benefit when you have a complete series before you. But this one absolutely begins to develop the feeling of a grander arc and mystery at play.
Yes, Bob the Heartstrikerās seer , among others, has been plotting.
āā-
Ok. As I said I read ahead. And unfortunately Iām stopping with the reviews, for this and the other books.
The reason why is Iām devastated.
Perhaps this is why you donāt read series out of order. Because I absolutely fell in love with Julius and Marci. Through all five books, I emotionally invested my time and heart in their journey and love for each other.
In each book, the author creates powerful storylines that allows them to develop and the universe redefine itself and them, taking us through some shocking heartbreaking moments, truly awful, crushing and cruel times. Yes, I was ugly crying. These are scenes that live in my head.
But by the time and end of the finale, and another moment of monumental horror and loss, Last Dragon Standing, it had a great ending. Fantastic. Loved it.
So why not just review it.
Because, tbh, I read a ton of books and it took me a while to realize and remember what Aaron then did with these characters in the following series.
And not for any other reason than to give one new main character, a ghostly teacher, a barely secondary character at that. Forever changing the ending of that first series and the fate of the couple who finally got their HEA.
Just no.
While I get characters and books belonging to the writers who create them, I think readers should be able to have a certain amount of belief that they will treat them better. Sure characters die, but a great writer uses it as a way to drive the story forward, a deep aspect of the plot. Not as a prop or replaceable character. As it is in The DFZ. Any new character could have been added to fill the role. Careless and devastating.
So Iām done with the universe, connected series and this author. Too many other writers to explore.
Just my thoughts.

Heartstrikers :
Nice Dragons Finish Last
One Good Dragon Deserves Another No Good Dragon Goes Unpunished
I absolutely enjoyed this fantasy romance of miscommunication resolved between an ancient vampire and a green fae, both of which have their own families to share.
Itās a sort of fantasy With Eight You Get Eggrolls, but with drama, plants, and mate bonds.
Anton and Keryth were both very great characters and wonderful together, quickly figuring out why they were so drawn together (fated mates). It wasnāt the normal fast paced relationship I expected in a fated mate story. I loved the way Notaro let them go down a slower path than an immediate step into a full blown love match. Each has a family to consider and those kids (young and old) were part of the bigger picture (and discussions) as they grew together.
Kerās children are a more well known group (from previous stories) than Antonās with the exception of Jed, Antonās youngest.
The full found family Ker and Kerythās young sisters Alsira, Gemma, Saranor, and Zellya, and Anton has his fledglings Phaeron, Beshiro, Katja, Jedediah. Then thereās one more youngster who becomes a major character and storyline here.
All played out while a series or universe drama /mysteries is going on around them, including them in its horror.
There is one book left in this trilogy and I canāt see how the huge overall plot is tied together within that book. Itās just that big.
But the author already has another series coming to follow this one, about the vampires. Which makes sense because vampires are the focus of the ongoing mystery and arc plot.
So I expect a switch in locations and characters. What fun! And more crossovers as well.
Looking forward to the final book in this series and the next series.
I hate vampires. Well, just one in particular. But I do kinda love how his eyes follow me whenever heās around⦠Sigh.
Step One: Find a hot vampire. Check.
Step Two: Get the hot vamp to drink from me. Check.
Step Three: Try to forget his stupid face. Ugh. This oneās impossible to check. F my life. Sigh.
Anton is beyond frustrating. He was so sweet when we first met, and Iād thought we had a real connection. But then he had to ruin everything with his big mouth and jerky face. Ugh.
I canāt get him out of my head. Even when Iām beyond angry at him, I still feel a pull to be near him. A pull I canāt seem to ignore.
And when my entire world gets turned upside-down, I canāt help but reach for the ancient vampire and hope that together, we can conquer anything thatās thrown at us⦠anything thatās coming for us.
The Vampireās Delicious Fae is Book 2 of the MM urban fantasy series, Brinnswick: Tales From Gauhala. It follows a new couple in each book with a guaranteed HEA. It takes place in the Brinnswick world in the far away country of Gauhala and brings a whole new cast of characters, so you donāt need to read the other series first. But don’t worry, there will absolutely be some cameos along the way.
Draken the Rules is a sweet, sexy paranormal novella in Arden Steeleās long running fated mates Blackhaven Manor universe.
Itās a quick read and I really enjoyed the characters, especially as Arden added another dragon shifter to the universe who a total powerhouse!
Up until now, we had only the original dragon siblings acknowledged and now we know that there are others out there. Fantastic expansion of this series and universe. Also intriguing little toy , a fabulous tiny dragon that used blood magic to animate it. Was it sentient or not? Could have used an entire story on it alone.
Minor drama that was easily removed but the couple was adorable and Itri Lockwood , Storm dragon shifter , morally grey magic item dealer needs a series. Especially now that his mate has decided to work with him.
For Arlo Eichen, the annual Heritage Festival is less of a beloved tradition and more of a weeklong exercise in patience. The crowds are insane, the chaos is overwhelming, and the sense of entitlement is off the charts. So, when an honest-to-the-gods storm erupts inside one of the ballrooms? Just another day at Blackhaven Manor.
Until he sets eyes on the source of the storm.
Six-and-half feet of brooding, lightning-throwing dragon shifter, Itri Lockwood has a bad-boy reputation and a temper as short as his patience. And he doesnāt take kindly to threats against whatās hisāespecially when it comes to Arlo.
Mixing business with pleasure was never part of the plan. He came for a distraction, but now heās juggling a coveted artifact, a deal gone sideways, and a mate who went from an unexpected temptation to a primal obsession.
Itri might be able to control the storm but keeping Arlo out of troubleā¦
Grae Bryanā Demon Bound series has been fantastic to date, matching the damaged, dark Russian mafia brothers with an assorted cast of demons who were an unlikely found family of demons, each watching and waiting to be summoned.
The Koslov family history is deeply disturbing, criminal as youād expect, and horrifically terrifying for those raised inside its core. The author did a fantastic job capturing this emotional trauma and layering it into each brother in a different way, and how it impacted their stories and relationship with the demons they summoned.
Yes, the intensity and complexity of Ivan and Nix hasnāt been matched. My favorite!
So when their cousin, the highly introspective Cooper, gets the next story and summoning of a demon weād met, I was curious.
Calling Chaos is a good book but it feels separate from the rest of the series. Bryan gives us scenes that have occurred before, but now we have them from the perspective of this couple and these characters. Thatās amusing.
And while we are given a general glimpse into what a painful background Cooper must have had, thereās been no foundation laid out in the series for him or his character before. So while Chaos becomes a vital part of the series and wildly entertaining dangerous being, Cooper remains more of a one dimensional person. Someone who reacts with Chaos, has tons of sex with him, and as we know will bond with him.
Thereās a āsave me ā element that comes out of nowhere and goes away with equal impact. Itās there for just that. So the reader believes in it just as much.
The ending sets up the next story and series finale which Iām really excited about. That should bring everything together. And the scariest demon yet.
So the best part of Calling Chaos is actually Chaos. Thereās small scenes here and there where heās the chaos demon you want and expect. I wish we had more of that. Or a better defined and fleshed out Cooper.
Cooper didnāt mean to summon a demon. He may be a hacker for the Mafia, but heās not exactly brave or adventurous by nature. He was only trying to do a small, easy job for his terrifying boss and then get back to not leaving the house for days on end. Only now that the demonās here, promising to be Cooperās friend for as long as he needs one, Cooper might just be lonely enough to let him.
Chaos knew it was finally his time to get summoned. No more being stuck in the boring Void, no more hanging out with the same three dull demons. Itās time for madness and mayhem and answering to no one but himself. Except Chaos doesn’t expect his newest summoner to be quite soā¦timid. And sweet. And willing to cater to every single one of Chaosās many wants and whims. Maybe it wouldnāt hurt to stick around for an eternity or two.
Now Chaos just needs to convince his new friend that it really isnāt all that scary to be mated to a demon, even one who loves to play with fire.
CALLING CHAOS IS A HEATED MM PARANORMAL ROMANCE. IT FEATURE A LONELY, SOCIALLY ANXIOUS HACKER AND THE WILY, WICKED, AND SLIGHTLY FERAL DEMON WHO WANTS TO PLAY WITH HIM FOREVER. IT ALSO CONTAINS āITāS JUST PRACTICEā BEDROOM LESSONS, MAFIA MEETINGS GONE AWRY, AND THE JOYS OF STEALING YOUR NOT-BOYFRIENDāS HOODIES.
