A New Atlantis Novel
Nhys Glover

Explore New Atlantis, a Future Utopian World...

When a handsome young man, claiming to be three hundred years old, offers Cara a chance at a new life in his future utopian world she considers she has two options: back away cautiously or try to help the obviously deluded stranger.

Because it comes naturally to a teacher of autistic kids to help, Cara decides to take the second option. By doing so she unwittingly opens herself up to a passionate new love in an unimaginable new world, where clones extend lifespans and time travel is used to repopulate a decimated human population.

To Jac, Cara appears to be the ideal target for Retrieval: a worthy, productive human being. But when her free-thinking individualism begins to clash with his peaceful, highly regulated world he has to rethink his priorities. How much is he willing to change to keep this loving, beautiful woman in his life? And, more importantly, is he prepared to break the rules that define their very existence to stay with her?

This is the first in the exciting new time travel romance series, New Atlantis, by Australian author Nhys Glover

I will be upfront and honest, as usual, with you. I was approached via email, by an author I've never heard of, and asked if I would read one of her books and review it. I, of course, jumped on the opportunity! I know you are sitting there thinking, "Well!?! Tell us already!"  Okay, okay, keep your knickers on.

I really enjoyed this book! Imagine if you are living your life like you always do when suddenly a stranger approaches you and offers you a choice of Door #1, your imminent D Day, or Door #2, a leap of faith and time into a new world, a New Atlantis, hundreds of years in the future. An opportunity to live hundreds of years longer in genetic clones of a younger, healthier, you. I would take Door #2.

I do not want to get too much into Cara and Jac as theirs is a love story that I want you to experience. Their story is introduced here in Nine Lives and I cannot wait to see the where and the how their story blooms. 

If you are looking for a good, sweet, quick (164 pages) read, I can absolutely recommend Nhys Glovers Nine Lives, A New Atlantian Series

Fall Into You

Fall Into You (A Loving on the Edge Novel)

By Roni Loren        

********* An Overview*********

He'll do anything for you. But you'd better say please.

When tomboy sports reporter Charli Beaumonde loses a dream TV job because she's not girly enough for primetime, she's determined to land a big scoop and prove her boss made a mistake. But when she gets too close to a football scandal and finds her life threatened, Charli accepts an offer from family friend Grant Waters to hide out at his place--even if Grant predicts nothing but trouble from his buddy's hard-headed, uncompromising, irrepressible, younger sister. There's one more problem...

Grant's "place" is The Ranch, a BDSM resort in Texas, and he's used to being in charge --even if that means trying to keep Charli in line. But much to Grant's surprise, she's intrigued--even envious--of his trainees. They're the epitome of what she's never been: sexy, beguiling, and totally irresistible to a man. Still, Grant doesn't believe for a minute that the sharp-tongued Charli has it in her to be anyone's submissive. But Charli's already on her knees vying for the chance to prove that even the Master can be wrong sometimes.

My Thoughts

When I start a book, I always go in with very high expectations, as I am sure you do, too. I expect the author to create characters that I cannot only believe in, but hopefully relate to, one way or another. I expect them to create a setting that I can close my eyes and imagine myself in. I expect stories that wrap me up and take me inside them. I also expect to develop a bond with the characters, for however long the story is. Having said that, the question now is, did Mrs. Loren successfully meet my expectations with Fall Into You the third in her Loving On the Edge series? ABSOLUTELY!

Charli was a lot like looking into a mirror for me. I wont go into all of the “what does she mean?” here, but in all of my reading of books, no heroine seemed to smack me between the eyes like Charli. She is a seemingly tough as nails woman who has to come face to face with some inner doubts, and there is no one who is better suited to accept the challenge that is Charli than Grant Waters.

Grant is the –in my opinion- greatest type of hero. He is former military. Former CIA. Successful businessman. Unflinchingly dominant with his sexual desires. And, underneath his rough and ready cowboy exterior, a softie when it comes to love. Grant is more than willing and able to take Charli on.

The story revolves around Grants vineyard slash secret BDSM club that is outside of Dallas, Texas city limits. Yes, we have vineyards out here. Yes, as Charli’s character is investigating, we love our football here in Texas. No, I have yet to find anything like Grant –um, his club, here in the Dallas area (but I am still searching). Ms. Loren creates such a beautiful image of these grounds on her pages that you can almost feel the Texas breeze in the air.

This story is, ultimately, a revelation about both characters. It is steamy, sexually charged, exciting, and real. What a great story to introduce 2013 with!

Although this is the third in a series, it can be read alone, but why would you want to? Do I adore this series? YES! Would I recommend it to you? YES! What are you waiting for? You know you want to… Don't just live on the edge, love on the edge!

Fall Into You is available in both paperback and ebook formats.

Danger Zone

Danger Zone                                 

By Dee J. Adams

4 out of 5 Stars

I receive a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Danger Zone is an extremely well written, high energy, high octane novel that bring you along for a fast paced ride as you cheer for the hero and heroine, laugh, cry and wonder who is behind the sabotage that they keep facing.

Quinn Reynolds is a millionaire partner in a Formula One race car design company who is ready to sell the business, if he can get his older brother and partner to agree. In a last ditch effort to convince his brother, he flies to Los Angeles to meet with his brother while in the set of a movie being filmed about his sister-in-laws career as a race car driver.

Ellie Morgan is the stuntwoman who fills in for the star of the movie. Having been a stuntwoman for ten years, she has experienced both the highs and the lows that her career offer, but it is sitting behind the wheel of the racecar that Ellie finds, what she hopes to be, the next phase of her life. Ellie is held back, however, by a secret that only a few know about, something that could affect her future, permanently.

As with every good book, there needs to be conflict and poor Ellie and Quinn seem to have it in spades. The biggest conflict actually serves to help bring them closer together, as they try to figure out who is out to kill them, and why.

Did I enjoy this book? Yes! Definitely, yes. The story never lost its momentum throughout, keeping me in the story through the very end. Would I recommend this book? YES! If you are searching for a, “can’t put down, page turner” then come to the Danger Zone.

SURRENDER

 

SURRENDER                    

By Pamela Clare

Book one in the MacKinnion’s Ranger Series is a beautifully written, strong story set during the Seven Year War. The story of three brothers, born of Scottish blood and spirit, unbelievable character and strengths, the series casts each brother in a featured role and sweeps you into the war that they have found themselves condemned to fighting in.

Iain MacKinnion, a man guilty of nothing more that coming to the defense of a prostitute, is suddenly faced, along with his brothers, with the choice of a hangman’s noose or fighting for the British Crown, a crown he has no love for. Choosing life, Iain finds himself commanding a group of Rangers, a unit that he has picked of Scots and Irishmen alike. A band of brothers, who have united together to become an invaluable force for the Crown.

Annie Burns, born to luxury in the Highlands of Scotland, her family supporters of the British Crown. As tragedy befalls her family, she is placed in the guardianship of her once beloved uncle who she discovers hides a terrifyingly cruel side. His actions have not only branded her for life, but have also forced her across the sea to a life of indenture for crimes she did not commit. Bought by a frontier couple, she once again survives an attack with her life, and in doing so, finds herself at the feet of the MacKinnion Rangers.

Iain and Annie are faced to work as best as they can together while fighting for their lives as they attempt to reach Fort Edward and reunite with Iain’s Rangers. Forced together, they find it more and more futile to fight the feelings that they are developing for one another.

A beautiful love story that has enough genuine emotion woven into the pages, the MacKinnions leave you wanting more of these Highlander men.


                                                       5 of 5 STARS

Overview
