Manga Review: Demon Love Spell, Vol. 1 [Paperback]



I've finished "Demon Love Spell Vol. 1" by Mayu Shinjo.

Product Description

By the creator of Ai Ore! and Sensual Phrase

Miko is a shrine maiden who has never had much success at seeing or banishing spirits. Then she meets Kagura, a sexy demon who feeds off women’s feelings of passion and love. Kagura’s insatiable appetite has left many girls at school brokenhearted, so Miko casts a spell to seal his powers. Surprisingly the spell works — sort of — but now Kagura is after her!


Reads R to L (Japanese style) for teen plus audiences.

My Review:

Miko is a shrine maiden who can't see or sense any evil spirits though her family can.  Instead she has studied extremely hard to recognize and banish demons.  She is very dedicated to her family and her duties as a shrine maiden.

Kagura is an incubus that has preyed on Miko's fellow peers at her high school and she has sealed his powers and shrunk him to a tiny little chibi demon form.  Kagura was once the most powerful demon now he is powerless against stronger demons then him and can't turn back into his tall and handsome young self a lady killer.  Now that he is sealed in his tiny demon self all of the demons want to kill him and eat Miko to gather her strength and power.  Miko can't see their enemies unless she is holding chibi Kagura.  Even worse she can't remember the spell she used to seal Kagura's powers to transform him back to his former self.

When Miko is sleeping Kagura enters her dreams and seduces her to gain some strength back but Miko doesn't remember anything that has happened when she wakes up.  She is exhausted but is embarrassed for some reason she can't quite figure out.  She refers to Kagura as a pervy demon and thinks he has put a spell over her to make her fall in love with him.  She doesn't quite trust him even though he vows to protect her.

I would recommend this book for the 18+ group because of the sexual themes, violence, pervy thoughts and comments, kissing, etc.

This manga had beautiful artwork, the guys are gorgeous as usual, fast paced and the characters were very interesting and we got to see the real emotions of the characters too. 

I loved how Kagura has more than one characteristic and shows his softer side towards Miko but he also loves to annoy her in his chibi form.

5/5

RS Review: Shiver [Hardcover]



I've finished "Shiver" by Karen Robards.

Product Description

When she swore off love, he was the last man she imagined would steal her heart.

If driving a piece-of-crap tow truck through the seediest part of town with a Smith and Wesson beside her means putting a roof over her son’s head, then Samantha Jones is going to be the best damn repo woman on the books. The streetwalkers, the drug pushers, the bands of looking-for-trouble punks haunting the mean streets at midnight don’t intimidate her. These are her people. The guy she finds bound and bloodied in the trunk of her latest conquest, a flashy new BMW, is a different breed entirely.

Daniel Panterro was certain he was going to die. Instead, by a stroke of luck, he was beaten to within an inch of his life and left for dead. But if he’s having a bad day, Sam’s day is about to get way worse. Danny knows he hasn’t seen the last of the vicious drug runners who kidnapped him from protective custody. His only recourse is to take his pretty savior hostage and force her to help him. There’s no going back for Sam and her four-yearold son, Tyler. They’re in way too deep.

With ruthless killers stalking their trail, Sam’s only choice is to trust this handsome, menacing stranger. But as she relinquishes control, Sam feels an unmistakable desire. Could she be tempted by Danny, who seems intent on protecting her and Tyler from even his own darkest secrets? And what is the price of falling in love with a man who operates on the edge of danger — her heart, her life . . . or both?

About the Author

Karen Robards is the author of more than forty novels and one novella. A regular on the New York Times, USA TODAY, and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists, among others, she is the mother of three boys and lives in Louisville, Kentucky.

My Review:

Samantha Jones is a single young mother who repos cars to provide a roof for her and her 4 year old son Tyler.  She never expected to find a beaten and cuffed man in the trunk of a BMW she is suppose to repo.  She is knocked unconscious and thrown in to the trunk with the FBI man Danny Panterro/Trey posing as Marco.

Danny/Trey/Marco believes this is the end when he is kidnapped from protective custody and viciously beaten almost till the inch of his life when he spots a beautiful and young women looking down at him.

When they escape Danny convinces Samantha to help him to safety with her Smith and Wesson.  Sam is very furious to be brought into this mess and just wants to get her son to safely.  When she arrives home she finds out her house been breached and her neighbor who is babysitting Tyler is brutally killed.  All of them are taken in protective custody and on the run from the viscous gangsters.

The relationship is slow building with a lot of sexual attention which concludes to a steamy love scene. 

3.5/5

Murder Hooks a Mermaid (A Haunted Souvenir) [Mass Market Paperback]


Nestled in Keyhole Bay, Florida, Glory Martine’s souvenir shop, Southern Treasures, is supposed to trap tourists — not ghosts. But a possessed parrot may be just what Glory needs to solve a murder.

Inheriting her great-uncle Louis’s bayside souvenir shop should have been a breeze for Glory. Instead it’s been one headache after another — with a lot of them generated by Bluebeard, a parrot with a mouth like a sailor and a personality a lot like her late great-uncle. But Glory’s troubles pale in comparison to those of her best friend Karen, whose ex may still have the personalized key chain to her heart, but whose brother-in-law is about to get locked up.

A diver has been found with a gaff hook in his chest, and Karen turns to Glory to help get her brother-in-law off the hook for his murder. But casting the net for the real killer won’t be easy.

Manga Review: Black Bird, Vol. 15 [Paperback]



I've finished "Black Bird Vol. 15" by Kanoko Sakurakouji.

Product Description

He loves her blood, but does her love her?!

Reads R to L (Japanese Style).

There is a world of myth and magic that intersects ours, and only a special few can see it. Misao Harada is one such person, and she wants nothing to do with magical realms. She just wants to have a normal high school life and maybe get a boyfriend. But she is the bride of demon prophecy, and her blood grants incredible powers, her flesh immortality. Now the demon realm is fighting over the right to her hand...or her life!

Sho’s death should have meant a return to peace for Misao and Kyo, once they came to terms with their guilt. But instead Misao finds herself displaying strange new powers she can’t quite control. Is this just the next stage for her as the Senka Maiden, or is something more sinister going on?

About the Author

Her debut title, Raibu ga Hanetara, ran in Bessatsu Shojo Comic (currently called Betsucomi) in 2000, and her 2004 Betsucomi title Backstage Prince was serialized in VIZ Media's Shojo Beat magazine. She won the 54th Shogakukan Manga Award for Black Bird.

My Review:

Misao finds out that she is pregnant and she has new powers from the baby to protect both of them.  She realizes she needs to control it before it gets out of control.

Kyo and Misao convince her parents that both of them want to have the baby and she will finish school.  She has agreed to become Kyo's wife after graduation.

The assassination of the clan that Sho comes back to haunt them and there is a cliff hanger about the real fate of the Senko Maiden.

PNR Review: Last Kiss Goodnight: An Otherworld Assassin Novel [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Last Kiss Goodnight" the 1st book in her Otherworld Assassin series by Gena Showalter.

Product Description

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Gena Showalter ignites a thrilling new paranormal series with this breathtaking tale of a warrior enslaved by desire, and the woman who frees his soul.

THE SWEETEST TEMPTATION . . .


Black ops agent Solomon Judah awakens caged and bound in a twisted zoo where otherworlders are the main attraction. Vika Lukas, the owner’s daughter, is tasked with Solo’s care and feeding. The monster inside him yearns to kill her on sight, even though she holds the key to his escape. But the human side of him realizes the beautiful deaf girl is more than she seems — she’s his.

THE ULTIMATE PRICE . . .

Vika endures the captives’ taunts and loathing, hoping to keep them alive even if she can’t free them. Only, Solo is different — he protects her. But as hostility turns to forbidden romance, his feelings for her will be used against him . . . and he’ll be put to a killer test.

My Review:

This is a spin-off from Gena's Alien Huntress series so if you have read that you would be familiar with the terms AIR and Otherworlders.

Solomon Judah works as an black-ops agent who finds himself caged and bound in a circus zoo one day.  He has known love from his adoptive parents but everyone else calls him a freak or animal. 

Vika has grown up under the cruel hands of her father and he has beaten her so bad he has taken her hearing.  She treats the captives kindly but some of them taunt her and even throw stones, food, etc. at her. 

Solo was a great hero because he was big, strong, protective and Vika was a great heroine because she's smart, kind and how she coped and endeared the treatment she received from her father and a couple of Otherworlder captives.

4/5

RS Review: Where Angels Rest [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Where Angels Rest" by Kate Brady.

Product Description

A RACE FOR SALVATION


For the past decade, psychologist Erin Sims has been helping victims of violent crimes move on with life . . . but the one person she can't save is the one who matters most. In only seven days, her brother will be executed for a murder he didn't commit. Convinced she knows the identity of the real killer, Erin is determined to find the man and bring him to justice.

A COUNTDOWN TO DESTRUCTION

Sheriff Nick Mann moved to rural Ohio hoping to forget the tragedies of his past. When Erin shows up in town, bringing scandal and unwanted media attention with her, Nick knows she's trouble. No one believes sleepy Hopewell could harbor a serial killer . . . until residents begin to disappear. Now as Nick untangles the dark secrets plaguing his town, he can't help falling for the beautiful woman with the warm heart and iron will. And, as the days tick by, the truth becomes clear: Erin is hunting a vicious murderer-one whose only escape is to silence her forever.

My Review:

Erin Sims has been trying to prove her younger brother Justin isn't a murderer of a Senator's daughter.  She only has seven days before his execution to get solid proof and bring the real murder to justice.  She knows who the killer is and follows him to his new home under a new identity.

It has been 12 long years that Erin has been gathering information and collecting evidence against Jack Huggins aka Jack Calloway who has now settled in peaceful and quiet Hopewell Ohio.  When she arrives she is met by resistance and people who believe she is crazy as a loon.

Sherrif Nick Mann likes the quiet life he has with his daughter and his friends.  When he was in a cop in LA he had his share of the nightlife and the bright lights of the big city.  He has suffered a personal loss and the most excitement he sees now is the occasional drunk and disorderly and robbery.  He's not too thrilled when Erin crosses his threshold and brings the attention and catastrophe when she accuses one of Hopewells finest citizens.

Now young women on the verge of destruction are suddenly starting to disappear and it's bringing back memories and feelings that Nick thought were long ago dead.  Erin is in the middle.

This book is a well written psychological thriller which is plot driven and fast paced.  It's filled with lots of twists and turns with a smart, determined and independent heroine that can keep pace with the hero and keep him on his toes.

4/5

What is your favorite part of book blogging?

What is your favorite book(s)?

This is such a tough question! I honestly don’t think I could name just one, so if you don’t mind I’ll throw out a handful in no particular order and you can take your pick… The Harry Potter series, The Sea of Tranquility, The Edge of Never, The Opportunist, the Experiment in Terror Series, A Matter of Fate, the Fever Series, Mila 18, the Song of Ice and Fire series, The Night Circus, Ready Player One, Winter Sea, State of Wonder, To Kill a Mockingbird, and Macbeth.

I would say the best thing that has happened to me so far has been becoming an organizer of the Boston Author Event which is happening on March 16th, 2013. I adore the other two organizers – Cristina of Cristina’s Book Reviews, and Trish Patel Brinkley (huge fan) – whom I would have never met had it not been for book blogging. It’s pretty amazing to see what dedicated fans can do for the authors they love! As a book blogger, I’ve been able to connect authors with their readers in a meaningful way in the virtual world. Now, I’m excited to be able to do that in March in the real world!


Our Feature -Bookworms Avenue

1. When did you start blogging?

I started blogging back 2009. My blog wasn't a book blog yet it was more of a "my hobbies" blog. But after couple of months blogging I sort of got tired and very busy at school so I decided to end it. After several years I found out about book blogs, which was this May 2012, and made one of my own. Actually I just renewed my old blog.

2. What is your favorite part of book blogging?

Meeting new friends and reading more books. You see because of book blogging I meet new friends- bloggers and authors, who also loves to read. With them I can share my obsession with books not like my friends in real life. I mean I do share my hobby with them but not that much. Also book blogging gave me an opportunity to read more books which I'm not well aware of before.

3. What is your favorite book(s)?

My all time favorite are The Harry Potter books. Recently The Mortal Instruments books has also made to my top ten favorite books ever.

4. What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?

A great conversation with my favorite authors!

Manga Review: Nabari No Ou, Vol. 12 [Paperback]



I've finished "Nabari no Ou Vol. 12" by Yuhki Kamatani.

Product Description

Who is friend, and who is foe? Kouichi and Shijima once fought alongside Raimei and Banten, but now they cannot see eye to eye with the revived Shimizu clan, whose top priority is the nullification of the secret art. Is it the unavoidable destiny of two old friends to take up arms against each other? As the lines of alliance blur with conflict, the story of the Shinra Banshou reels wildly on, with Kotarou Fuuma, the Nabari realm's biggest power player, smiling to himself knowingly, while pulling all the strings.

About the Author

Yuhki Kamatani's debut work, NABARI NO OU, was a finalist in the 2005 Japan Media Arts Festival in the "Story Manga" category. The series' popularity later led to its popular anime adaptation.

PNR Review: Seduction's Shift (Shadow Shifters) [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished "Seduction's Shift the book in her Shadow Shifters series by A.C. Arthur.

Seduction's Shift

Product Description


They hide their true nature from the world — part man and part animal — sworn to defend the human race against the untamed beasts among them …

She was his first love, his only love. But trying to rescue his beautiful Ary from captivity is one wild risk no man should take. Luckily, Nick Delgado is no ordinary man. His work in the urban jungle as a high-powered litigator has only fueled his ferocity, enflamed his passion — and sharpened his claws — to protect his mate.

Ary is a born healer who has devoted her life to the tribe — and her heart to Nick. But when the fierce and sadistic Sabar turns his jaguar eyes upon her, Ary becomes the unwilling pawn in a deadly game of shifting alliances. One man wants to use her talents to enslave humanity. The other wants to free her from their natural enemy. If Nick hopes to save Ary, he must unleash the beast within — and fight for the woman he loves.

My Review:

Sabar Tavares has returned to the Gungi Rain forest after failing to kill the East Coast Faction leader Roman Reynolds and capturing Kalina.  He is determined to rule the human and shifter world by kidnapping Aryiola Serino who he believes she has the one ingredient that can help his drug cartel grow ever larger.

Aryiola is a Curandero or healer who has learned how to learning about and studying plants that will benefit her tribe.  She lets Sabar know that she wants nothing to do with his drug cartel while trying to find a way to escape.  She has longed for the one man who has captured her heart.

Dominick Delgado is the legal partner of Roman Reynolds by day and a lethal jaguar shifter by night who takes no mercy on any man or shifter.  When he finds out that Ary has been kidnapped he wastes no time to rush to the jungle to rescue her.  Ary has been the only women for him even though he can have any women or shifter he wants.

RS Review: Slow Heat (The Bounty Hunters) [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Slow Heat" the 5th book in her Bounty Hunter series by Lorie O'Clare.

Product Description

Slow Heat

Lorie O'Clare

As a new trainee at the King family’s bounty-hunting agency, Micah Jones is trying to keep his cool. But his latest assignment — to bring in a night-club owner suspected of money-laundering — heats up fast when he meets the “brains” of the outfit: an irresistibly beautiful bookkeeper who’s resisting arrest. So Micah takes her into custody — by taking her into his powerful arms and not letting go.

Held for questioning but released by police, Maggie O’Malley is still a person of interest — to Micah. And Maggie is interested, too — in his services. With his iron-hard muscles and tough-guy exterior, the Harley-riding bounty hunter is just the man Maggie needs to track down the real crook at the club. A slow-burning attraction ignites a firestorm of insatiable desire — until the secrets of Micah’s past are exposed. Explosive passion now must prove stronger than a history so terrifying it might haunt them forever.

My Review:

Micah Jones is a new trainee at the King's family bounty-hunting agency.  His latest assignment is to bring in the night-club owner suspected of laundering money but when he meets the brainy and beautiful bookkeeper who resists arrest he almost loses his cool.  He takes her into custody and also into his arms and decides he doesn't want to let her go.

Maggie O'Mallery is questioned by the police but they let her go because they don't have any evidence against her.  Maggie hires Micah to track down the real culprit at the club.  A smoldering hot attraction ignites between them that turns into a smoking hot love affair.  Then a secret from Micah's past is discovered and exploited.

Micah is definitely a bad boy who has changed his ways at the end.  He is a wild man with a kinky quirk in the bedroom (Oh Boy one of the love scenes was very kicky and hot at the same time).  Maggie was able to handle herself with the big boys and was able to keep up with them.

Taking up residence at Hatter Mansion, Alice occasionally forgets that her host, Blood, is the head of the Mafia. But she is quickly reminded of that fact by Blood's violence toward his most loyal follower, the March Hare.

Contemp Review: The Wedding Party [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "The Wedding Party" by Robyn Carr.

Product Description

After her divorce, Charlene Dugan vowed never to get married again — a promise she has kept for twenty-five years. Until the fateful day she finds herself uttering the well-known phrase — "Let's get married!"

Almost immediately, Charlene's seemingly perfect life begins unraveling at the seams. Daughter Stephanie's own relationship is about to disintegrate, and she might be just a teensy-weensy bit jealous of her mom. And Charlene seems to be spending more time with her ex-husband than with her fiancé, Dennis. What's more confusing is that Dennis doesn't seem to mind too much. In fact, he sees the wedding consultant more often than Charlene does.

The wedding party is now officially out of control. They're calling for rain and the bride has cold feet. This isn't exactly what Charlene had in mind. But maybe it's not too late to finally decide on who and what she really wants.

About the Author

My Review:

Charlene Dugan is determined never to get married again after her disastrous marriage/divorce which she has kept for twenty-five years.  Then she utters the words "let's get married" to her new boyfriend Dennis.

Her daughter Stephanie's relationship with her boyfriend Grant seems to be on the verge of disintegration and she is jealous of her mom.  She wants to move back home which Charlie isn't too keen about.  Charlie is spending more time with her ex-husband Jake then Dennis her fiancee.  Dennis sees the wedding consultant more than her.

I didn't really like this cheating thing - Dennis didn't break up with Charlie before getting involved with the wedding consultant (Charlie caught them) and Charlie didn't break up with Dennis before falling into bed again with Jake.
