HEAR ME, by Viv Daniels
November 17, 2014

Listen… the bells have stopped ringing.

Once upon a time, Ivy belonged to Archer, body, heart, and soul. They spent long summer days exploring the forest, and long summer nights exploring each other. But that was before dark magic grew in the depths of the wilderness, and the people of Ivy’s town raised an enchanted barrier of bells to protect themselves from the threat, even though it meant cutting off the forest people—and the forest boy Ivy loved—forever.

And there’s a naked man lying in the snow.

Three years later, Ivy keeps her head down, working alone in her tea shop on the edge of town and trying to imagine a new future for herself, away from the forest and the wretched bells, and the memory of her single, perfect love. But in the icy heart of winter, a terrifying magic blooms—one that can reunite Ivy and Archer, or consume their very souls.

Warm up this winter with a sexy, paranormal New Adult romance from Viv Daniels. Contains magic spells, true love, and the hottest scene ever set in a greenhouse. Not meant for readers under 18.




Salt & Stone by Victoria Scott #CoverReveal #Giveaway


What would you do to save someone you love?

In Fire & Flood, Tella Holloway faced a dangerous trek through the jungle and across the desert, all to remain a Contender in the Brimstone Bleed for a chance at obtaining the Cure for her brother. She can't quit--she has to win the race, save Cody, and then fight to make sure the race stops before it can claim any more lives. In the next legs of the race, across the ocean and over mountains, Tella will face frostbite, sharks, avalanche, and twisted new rules in the race.

But what if the danger is deeper than that? How do you know who to trust when everyone's keeping secrets? What do you do when the person you'd relied on most suddenly isn't there for support? How do you weigh one life against another?

The race is coming to an end, and Tella is running out of time, resources, and strength. At the start of the race there were one hundred twenty-two Contenders. As Tella and her remaining friends start the final part of the race, just forty-one are left--and only one can win.

Reality is only an illusion.

Except for those who can control it…

Worst. Birthday. Ever.

My first boyfriend dumped me—happy birthday, Josie!—my dad is who knows where, I have some weird virus that makes me want to hurl, and now my ex is licking another girl’s tonsils. Oh, and I’m officially the same age as my brother was when he died. Yeah, today is about as fun-filled as the swamps of Dagobah. But then weird things start happening…

Like I make something materialize just by thinking about it.

When hottily-hot badass Reid Wentworth shows up on a motorcycle, everything changes. Like, everything. Who I am. My family. What really happened to my brother. Existence. I am Oculi, and I have the ability to change reality with my thoughts. Now Reid, in all his hotness, is charged with guiding and protecting me as I begin learning how to bend reality. And he’s the only thing standing between me and the secret organization that wants me dead…

#Eternal by C.C. Hunter #BookReview @cchunterbooks

Title: Eternal
Author: C.C. Hunter
Series: Shadow Falls: After Dark
Published: October 28th 2014 by St. Martin's Griffin
Genres:  YA, Paranormal, Romance
Source: Arc


All her life, Della's secret powers have made her feel separated from her human family. Now, she's where she belongs, at Shadow Falls. With the help of her best friends Kylie and Miranda, she’ll try to prove herself in the paranormal world as an investigator—all the while trying to figure out her own heart. Should she chose Chase, a powerful vampire with whom she shares a special bond? Or Steve, the hot shapeshifter whose kisses make her weak in the knees? When a person with dark connection to her past shows up, it’ll help her decide which guy to choose–and make her question everything she knows about herself.

From bestselling author C.C. Hunter comes Eternal—a must-read for fans of the Shadow Falls series—and the sequel to Reborn.



Eternal by C.C. Hunter keeps up the fantastic plot and pacing of Reborn. I feel like Della’s story is so much more in depth than Kylie’s story was in the first series.That’s nothing against Kylie’s story, I still love those books but it’s like Shadow Falls just keeps getting better and better. There is so much awesome going in these books and I think After Dark focuses more on the FRU and investigations. Where Shadow Falls focused on the camp itself. Combining the two gives you some great world building of the supernaturals that walk amongst us.

Chase or Steve. That’s the question of the hour. I don’t hate either guy and I like them both. They do both care about Della a great deal and I think she will be happy with either. They have their own special things about them. I was bothered by the fact that Chase would say things like, we are bonded so it’s going to happen anyway. What? That’s a terrible reason to have a relationship. Every time he said that I cringed. Steve on the other hand, completely broke my heart, not in the he broke Della’s heart way but he gave her this speech about 100 pages in that made me feel like tearing up. Maybe life experience comes to play into that but his reasoning for a decision he makes totally made sense to me. I think he put it into words perfectly and I was mad at Della for being mad at him because I felt like she was missing the point of what he was saying. Honestly I like both guys, I’m not necessarily going to be disappointed with who she ends up with but there is also a part of me that thinks that she could end up on her own and I would be good with that. Not in the insecure way she is now but in the I don’t need someone

What I love most about the books is that there is so much going on. I thought the first book had a great plot and that carries over into this book. I love that we are finding out more about Della’s family and that includes Chan. I love how in depth it’s going to help us really get to know Della. Plus the fact that she works for the FRU and each book kind of focuses on specific investigation keeps the plot moving. It’s a perfect balance and it all ties together.

C.C. Hunter fleshes out her characters so much that it makes them so three dimensional to me. I feel like there has to be a book for Miranda, even if it’s just one book or novella. You don’t only care about the main characters you care about them all. I love too how Kylie is still a big part of Della’s story just as Della was of hers. I think that is well done. I’m just really loving this series, even if at times I’m frustrated with the love life aspect. ha ha.

The Unhappening of Genesis Lee by Shallee McArthur #ScavengerHunt #Giveaway



The Unhappening of Genesis Lee
by Shallee McArthur
Publisher: Sky Pony Press
Release Date: November 18th 2014

Seventeen-year-old Genesis Lee has never forgotten anything. As one of the Mementi—a small group of genetically-enhanced humans—Gena remembers everything with the help of her Link bracelets, which preserve memories perfectly. But Links can be stolen, and six people have already lost their lives to a memory thief, including Gena’s best friend.

Anyone could be next. Which is why Gena is less than pleased to meet a strange but charming boy named Kalan who claims that they’ve not only met, but that Gena knows who the thief is.

The problem is, Gena doesn’t remember Kalan, she doesn’t remember seeing the thief, and she doesn’t know why she’s forgetting things— or how much else she might forget. As growing tensions between Mementi and ordinary humans drive the city of Havendale into chaos, Gena and Kalan team up to search for the thief. And as Gena loses more memories, they realize they have to solve the mystery fast.

Because Gena’s life is unhappening around her.
