Two reviews to celebrate Get Loaded!

Reviewer: Lindsey



I'm celebrating the Get Loaded Tour by giving you all a double review! 


H.T. Night's Vampire Love Stories

 

$2.99 on Amazon, folks...come on!!!!!!

I just read a wonderful series by H.T. Night called, Vampire Love Story Books.  H.T. Night is the brother of J.R. Rain.  Hold on!  I knew you saw the word Vampire...GET BACK HERE!!  I know...I KNOW.   However, these were different......

Josiah is a kid who gets attacked- becomes a vampire. He has lost his family and is living with his buddy who is a fellow MMA fighter.  There are werewolves and all kinds of violence and mayhem. For you smoochy lovers, there is romance for you, too. These books are classified as "paranormal romance.”  Aaack!  The romance is not overkill. I did not throw down the kindle screeching, "OH COME ON!!!" There is actual strategy to their battles.  You learn what makes the characters tick...good and bad.  I read these in 2 days.  They are that addictive.  I especially enjoyed the fact that there were folks that were of the supernatural nature and were not happy about it.  Gave the characters a little humanity.  (Did that even make sense?)  I wish these were classified as straight paranormal. When books are listed as romance, I know I tend to think for the ladies only. Both men and women would like these books.

Is it wrong that I like romance written by men more than women lately??  Hmmmm....$2.99 for all five--you have no excuse.  Buy it NOW (before price gets raised later in the week, and you send me a seething email).

Next on the list...

Flirting With Death (Assassins Anonymous-Step 1) 
by Heidi Hall


 $3.99 at Amazon....hurry up and grab it!!!!!!!!!

Now this was a fun book!  Kayla McKenna is an assassin for the CIA. Operation goes wrong.  She is asked to take early retirement. Kayla can't remember what happened as she was shot and found with nothing but a bullet hole and expensive necklace (there's worse ways to go right?).

Her Dad was murdered by terrorists, Mom is an online shopping junkie and brothers are all cops. She also has them all convinced she is an IT specialist and that's it.  She grew up with a sense of right and wrong--no in between.  Considering I was voted most likely to pull the trigger without remorse by a group of friends, I understand how she thinks. She gets a lovely severance check that she doesn't cash as she knows something is just not right.

She goes on to meet a nice stable man and remembers one who wasn't so stable.  He had a lot to do with her career failure.  I realize this may sound like a Lifetime movie special but it's not. This was fun. Well written and fun.

So give these books a whirl. For crying out loud...7 bucks and you get 6 books???!!!

Don't be a loser, get the books.

Happy Thursday - Eve folks!
