Sharon Sala's Curl Up and Dye Blog Tour with Guest Post

I am so excited to have Sharon Sala here at Paranormal and Romantic Suspense Reviews with a Guest Post.

Thanks Sourcebooks for allowing me to join your Curl Up and Dye Blog Tour!

Please take it away, Sharon!

Why did you decide to write woman's fiction?

I am a storyteller. I tell all kinds of stories and to a publisher that means crossing genres. They don’t all want you to do that, because they have you locked into a specific marketing plan. However, I make my own plans and follow my heart when it comes to storytelling, and am grateful that Sourcebooks saw my vision for different books.

Lane Heymont The Freedman and the Pharaoh's Staff Book Blast



I am so excited to have Lane Heymont here at Paranormal and Romantic Suspense Reviews with a Giveaway.

Thanks Goddess Fish for allowing me to join your Freedman and the Pharaoh's Staff Book Blast Tour!


 


The Freedman and the Pharaoh Staff
by Lane Heymont

BLURB:

Jeb, a former slave, rescues his brother-in-law Crispus from the Ku Klux Klan, only to be drawn into a world of Creole Voodoo, racism, time travel, and redemption.

Verdiss, the leader of the Ku Klux Klan has gained possession of the Pharaoh's Staff, a magical artifact from ancient Egypt and concocted a diabolical plan far more insidious than himself.

In the end, Jeb and Crispus must stop an entire people from eradication and each find redemption for their own past sins.

EXCERPT

Small rib bones clattered on the wooden table, where several black and red candles burned, their flames dancing like a company of elegant danseuses. There was a sense of power in the air. The old conjure-woman felt its prick at the back of her throat as she studied the animal bones. La’Rita was a Haitian woman with a cape of dreadlocks. She would have been beautiful were it not for the boils covering her face — and that her eyes were devoid of any color. La’Rita leaned over the table, shifting her weight in the chair. Shelves and desks filled with jars of grotesque, rotten items surrounded her. Foul-smelling roots and herbs filled some. Rancid liquids filled others to preserve the dead animals they held. Leather-bound books occupied some of the shelves, many etched with strange, archaic symbols.

“Ah, yes,” La’Rita whispered as she looked deeper into the bones. Images danced and twirled across the table, outlined by the dim candlelight. Her empty eyes poured over the phantasms, one by one. Stiff metal birds soared through the open sky, dropping massive pipes. La’Rita shuddered, feeling a sinister force was responsible for the contraptions. The form of an ancient staff passed through her vision. It held within it a great power. Metal boxes on wheels and metallic belts rolled across broken and burning landscapes, fire bursting from their elongated snouts.

Her body shook, spasms rushing up from her feet.

Apparitions whirled around La’Rita, changing, appearing, and dissipating into air. The tremors grew. La’Rita’s entire body shook. She struggled to stay in her chair.

A grizzled man wisped by her eyes. Then the fit ceased. He’d gone by fast enough that La’Rita hadn’t a chance to notice his features. Only his dark skin. She squinted her eyes, spotting the faintest aura in the air. A man with a fine mustache. La’Rita’s head throbbed as if a miner were taking a pick to it. The room shook. Was it her moving or the room?

Her gaze met the phantasmal man’s wretched eyes. The ghostly image made La’Rita sick to her stomach. Utter evil oozed out of this simple-looking man. Too much to bear. Her eyes rolled back. Darkness descended.

Takedown Twenty: A Stephanie Plum Novel Hardcover



I've finished "Takedown Twenty" the 20th book in her Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Stephanie Plum has her sights set on catching a notorious mob boss. If she doesn’t take him down, he may take her out.


New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum knows better than to mess with family. But when powerful mobster Salvatore “Uncle Sunny” Sunucchi goes on the lam in Trenton, it’s up to Stephanie to find him. Uncle Sunny is charged with murder for running over a guy (twice), and nobody wants to turn him in — not his poker buddies, not his bimbo girlfriend, not his two right-hand men, Shorty and Moe. Even Trenton’s hottest cop, Joe Morelli, has skin in the game, because — just Stephanie’s luck — the godfather is his actual godfather. And while Morelli understands that the law is the law, his old-world grandmother, Bella, is doing everything she can to throw Stephanie off the trail.

It’s not just Uncle Sunny giving Stephanie the run-around. Security specialist Ranger needs her help to solve the bizarre death of a top client’s mother, a woman who happened to play bingo with Stephanie’s Grandma Mazur. Before Stephanie knows it, she’s working side by side with Ranger and Grandma at the senior center, trying to catch a killer on the loose — and the bingo balls are not rolling in their favor.

With bullet holes in her car, henchmen on her tail, and a giraffe named Kevin running wild in the streets of Trenton, Stephanie will have to up her game for the ultimate takedown.

About the Author

Janet Evanovich is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Stephanie Plum novels, twelve romance novels, the Alexandra Barnaby novels, the Lizzy and Diesel series, How I Write: Secrets of a Bestselling Author, and The Heist, the first book in the Fox and O’Hare series with co-author Lee Goldberg.

My Review:

I really loved the Ranger moments and I hoped there would be more scenes.  You definitely could feel the sexual tension between them!

Kevin the giraffe was the scene stealer and I was waiting for the scene when he would appear.

Manga Review: The Dark-Hunters: Infinity, Vol. 2 Paperback



I've finished "The Darkhunters: Infinity Vol. 2" by Sherrilyn Kenyon.

Nick Gautier has enough trouble dealing with normal teenage problems: avoiding getting pummeled at school, talking to girls, staying out of trouble. Now Nick is facing a whole new world of challenges. As his powers develop, Nick sees supernatural (and potentially dangerous) creatures everywhere he looks. With the help of his Uncle Ambrose - who is actually Nick's future self communicating his thoughts across time - and his new tutor - the Grim Reaper - Nick must learn to control his abilities and elude the dark powers that seek to control him.

About the Author

The #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon is a powerhouse with more than 25 million copies of her books in print in over 30 countries. Since 2006, she's placed over fifty novels on the New York Times with over a dozen of them landing the #1 slot. During that same time, she claimed ten #1 slots on Publisher's Weekly.

Product Details
Series: The Dark-Hunters (Book 2)
Paperback: 240 pages
Publisher: Yen Press (December 17, 2013)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0316190543
ISBN-13: 978-0316190541

My Review:


This book is even better than the first in the series. The book starts right after the first book when Nick and his friends defeated the zombies and the Mortents. Kyrian flashes some fangs and now Nick has to start mastering his powers because there's a bounty on his head. His love life has heated up and he has to choose between the girl he has pined for most of his life or the one that is friendly and seems to care about him.

On top of that the principal seems to have it out for him. Also the new coach recruits him for the team but also to do some devious extra curricular activities on the side. The demons are after him too!

We also see how Nick meets the Peltier clan and his mom starts working at Sanctuary. Some of the characters have witty sayings which made me laugh while reading.

Glad to see Mark and Bubba again along with Caleb and Nekoda. Some interesting new characters were introduced Grim, Pain and Suffering and I hope to see some more of them in future books.

Love Nick's smart ass and sarcastic remarks!
4/5

Thanks Hachette Book Group Canada/Yen Press for sending me this manga to review, greatly appreciated!

Do or Die: Reluctant Heroes Hardcover

Navy SEAL Ian Dunn went rogue in a big way when he turned his talents to a lawless life of jewel heists and con jobs. Or so the world has been led to believe. In reality, the former Special Ops warrior is still fighting for good, leading a small band of freelance covert operatives who take care of high-stakes business in highly unofficial ways. That makes Ian the hands-down choice when the U.S. government must breach a heavily guarded embassy and rescue a pair of children kidnapped by their own father, a sinister foreign national willing to turn his kids into casualties. Shockingly, Ian passes on the mission for reasons he will not — or cannot — reveal.

But saying no is not an option. Especially not for Phoebe Kruger, Ian’s beautiful and unexpectedly brash new attorney. Determined to see the abducted children set free, Phoebe not only gets Ian on board but insists on riding shotgun on his Mission: Impossible–style operation, whether he likes it or not.

Though Phoebe has a valuable knack for getting out of tight spots, there’s no denying the intensely intimate feelings growing between Ian and Phoebe as the team gears up for combat. But these are feelings they both must fight to control as they face an array of cold-blooded adversaries, including a vindictive mob boss who’s got Ian at the top of his hit list and a wealthy psychopath who loves murder as much as he loves money. As they dodge death squads and play lethal games of deception, Ian and Phoebe will do whatever it takes to save the innocent and vanquish the guilty — or die trying.

PNR Review: Cloak and Silence (The League) Paperback



I've finished "Cloak and Silence" by Sherrilyn Kenyon.

CLOAK and SILENCE — SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S EDITION

One of the fiercest soldiers the Phrixians have ever produced, Maris Sulle has been an outsider from the moment he was born different from the rest of his family. He grew up with a secret that cost him everything — his birthright, his family, and his military career. In all his life, he’s only had one love, and he has sacrificed his own happiness to see his best friend reunited with the woman he loves. But now that his good deed is done, he feels lost and adrift. Even though they do their best to include him in their new family, Maris is once again on the outside looking in. Ture has spent his life hiding from everyone around him — his family, the world, you name it — while trying desperately to fit in. Badly hurt by everyone he’s ever known, he trusts no one except his own best friend. And honestly, he can’t understand why he trusts her. Nor can he believe her when she describes a loyalty between friends the likes of which he’s never seen. But when Ture is in his darkest hour, he’s saved by a hero he thought only existed in novels. A man who is every bit as scarred and mistrusting as he is — one who has no interest in being dragged into another relationship with anyone. Having spent his life as a living study of doomed relationships, Maris is well aware of the courtship and fiasco that invariably follows. Still, there is something about Ture he can’t resist. Something that won’t let him walk away when he knows he should. But when old enemies return to threaten them both, they either have to stand together or die alone.

My Review:

I wished this was a bit longer I thought it was too short!  

I really liked Maris when we were introduced to him as Darling Cruel's best friend and confidant.  I really wanted to learn about his past and we certainly did in this one (not a good one at that).

Loved that Ture is a chef and he successfully runs his own restaurant in spite of his past.  Glad that he got together with Maris they both deserve someone that loves them.

Dark Wolf (Carpathian) Hardcover

WHERE DARK LYCAN ENDED, DARK WOLF BEGINS...

BOOK NUMBER 25 IN CHRISTINE FEEHAN'S ACCLAIMED CARPATHIAN SERIES


In Dark Lycan, Christine Feehan journeyed into the heart of the Carpathians, and into the souls of two lifemates stirred by the flush of passion and the threat of annihilation. In Dark Wolf, the breathtaking story continues as the bonds of family are imperiled, and the fate of two lovers lies hidden in the seductive shadows between life and death.

Skyler Daratrazanoff always recognized the miracle that was Dimitri Tirunul, a man beyond any dream that had ever engaged her nights. But she was human. Vulnerable. He was Carpathian. Nearly immortal. She was nineteen. He was an ancient. Yet she held half his soul, the light to his darkness. Without her, he would not survive. Caught between the two warring species, Dimitri has spent centuries hunting the undead to keep his people free, and humans safe. He had survived honorably when others had chosen to give up their souls. But now, marked for extermination by the Lycans, Dimitri found himself alone, and fearing for his life. But salvation was coming.

No Lycan would ever suspect someone like Skyler to dare mount a secret rescue operation. A teenage girl. A human of untested abilities. But she had something no one else had. She was predestined for Dimitri — as he was for her. And there was nothing stronger for Skyler than her desire to see her life-dream come true. Whatever the risk.

INCLUDES A PREVIEW OF CHRISTINE FEEHAN’S NEXT CARPATHIAN NOVEL, DARK BLOOD

But when Maggie’s assistant, Phoebe, becomes the prime suspect, the knitting friends know the police have dropped a few stitches.

Archetype Hardcover

Introducing a breathtakingly inventive futuristic suspense novel about one woman who rebels against everything she is told to believe.

Emma wakes in a hospital, with no memory of what came before. Her husband, Declan, a powerful, seductive man, provides her with new memories, but her dreams contradict his stories, showing her a past life she can’t believe possible: memories of war, of a camp where girls are trained to be wives, of love for another man. Something inside her tells her not to speak of this, but she does not know why. She only knows she is at war with herself.

Suppressing those dreams during daylight hours, Emma lets Declan mold her into a happily married woman and begins to fall in love with him. But the day Noah stands before her, the line between her reality and dreams shatters.

In a future where women are a rare commodity, Emma fights for freedom but is held captive by the love of two men — one her husband, the other her worst enemy. If only she could remember which is which.

Bloggiesta Mini Challenge



Glad I'm on time to join this great challenge I found out this year.  This starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday.

My mini goals are:

1.  To post one review
2.  Comment back

What are your mini goals?





Follow My Blog Friday #180



If you are new to the FF fun, Feature and Follow Friday is a blog hop that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. Feature & Follow Friday is now hosted by TWO hosts, myself of course and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it'll allow us to show off more new blogs!

How does this work? First you leave your name here on this post, then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them "hi" in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you!

Now to make this FF interesting we do a FEATURE blogger. If you are interested in becoming a Feature click on the drop down link above FEATURES and Features and Follow Friday and get on the waiting list!  It is also required, that if you participate you must follow the hosts (Parajunkee and Alison Can Read) and the two Feature blogs.

This Meme is hosted by Rachel from Parajunkee's View and Alison from Alison Can Read on Fridays.

To join the fun and make now book blogger friends, just follow these simple rules:

1.  (Required) Follow the Follow My Book Blog Friday Hosts {Parajunkee and Alison Can Read}

2.  (Required) Follow our Featured Bloggers

3.  Put your Blog name and URL in the Linky thing. You can also grab the code if you would like to insert it into your posts.

4.  Grab the button up there and place it in a post, this post is for people to find a place to say “hi” in your comments and that they are now following you.

5.  If you are using WordPress or another CMS that doesn’t have GFC (Google Friends Connect) state in your posts how you would like to be followed

6.  Follow Follow Follow as many as you can, as many as you want, or just follow a few. The whole point is to make new friends and find new blogs. Also, don’t just follow, comment and say hi. Another blogger might not know you are a new follower if you don’t say “HI”

7.  If someone comments and says they are following you, be a dear and follow back. Spread the Love and the followers.

8.  If you’re new to the follow Friday hop, comment and let me know, so I can stop by and check out your blog!


Our Feature is Words Fueled by Love

When did you start blogging?

I had dabbled in blogging several years ago, but I started a book blog in October of 2012.

What is your favorite part of book blogging?

My favorite part about book blogging remains to be the community of other bloggers and readers. Everyone is incredibly supportive and kind and helpful. I try to repay to others who are new to book blogging because it’s always been so meaningful to me.
What type of books do you mainly blog about?
I blog about YA and NA in a host of genres. I go through phases (like now) where it seems to be a string of contemporary romance books, but I also enjoy paranormal, dystopian, sci-fy, fantasy. Occasionally I’ll review an adult book too but those are rare.
What is your favorite book(s)?
This question is just too hard to answer. Some of my favorites I read in 2013 (because we’d be here all day for me to recount ALL of my favorites) were: the current 3 books in the Imdalind series by Rebecca Ethington, The 5th Wave, The Fallen series by Abbi Glines, Hopeless by Colleen Hoover, Inhuman by Kat Falls, Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire seriously I could keep going on.
What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?
Connecting with authors, talking with them through Twitter and Facebook and their own blogs, participating in events where I get to promote an author – those all have to be some of the coolest things I’ve experienced through my blog. A close second to this would be because of the things I’ve learned from so many much more experienced bloggers than myself, I’ve been able to share this knowledge with my husband – who loves to write spiritual material (he too has a website: chasingalion.com) and he recently self published a Family Devotional on Amazon. Even though it’s not me personally who accomplished this, I take his accomplishments as important as my own. His eyes have been open to the wonders of being a Goodreads author. haha

Our Feature - A Reader's Sanctuary

1. When did you start blogging?

This will be my 2nd year blogging. Last year I was still learning my way around the blogging community (I still am but I know much more now) and I didn't have much time to blog as I would have liked. This year I just want to have fun and blog as much as I possibly can.

2. What is your favorite part of book blogging?

My favorite part of book blogging is I get to talk about books and people are actually interested. No one I know personally really likes to read so when I am so excited about an Amazing book I've just read no one really cares but here in the book blogging world people care as mush as I do if not more.

3. What type of books do you mainly blog about?

I mainly blog about New Adult books and Paranormal romance books but I am starting to read more Dystopian as well.

4. What are your favorite books?

Choosing your favorite books is so hard to do. I read soo much and have fallen in love with so many books. I'll just choose a few I've read last year. 1) The Night huntress series by Jeaniene Frost 2) The Mark of Nexus Series by Carrie Butler 3) Consequences Series by Aleatha Romig 4) Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead 5) Slammed Series by Colleen Hoover.

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

The best thing that has happened to me because of book blogging is the friends I've made. I have met some really amazing and helpful people. The FF has definitely been good to me. Each week I have new people commenting on my blog and it's just an amazing experience.

Question of the Week: What books are you looking forward to reading in 2014?

Wednesday Wish List

Up from the Grave (Night Huntress) Mass Market Paperback

The Grave Ends Here


Lately, life has been unnaturally calm for vampires Cat Crawfield and her husband Bones. They should have known better than to relax their guard, because a shocking revelation sends them back into action to stop an all-out war.

A rogue CIA agent is involved in horrifying secret activities that threaten to raise tensions between humans and the undead to dangerous heights. Now Cat and Bones are in a race against time to save their friends from a fate worse than death because the more secrets they unravel, the deadlier the consequences. And if they fail, their lives -- and those of everyone they hold dear -- will be hovering on the edge of the grave.

Final novel in the Night Huntress series.





 

Circle of Fire: A Damask Circle Book: 1 Mass Market Paperback

VISIONS OF TERROR


Sixteen teenagers taken from their homes. Eleven bodies recovered, each completely drained of blood. Some believe vampires are responsible. Jon Barnett knows that what’s happening is far worse. Sent by a group of paranormal investigators known as the Damask Circle, Jon quickly becomes enmeshed in a web of black magic and realizes he needs help. But fate gives him only one choice.

Madeline Smith has retreated to an isolated farmhouse, afraid of the abilities she cannot control — abilities that have killed. But when a “ghost” brings a warning of danger and her nephew goes missing, Maddie not only has to leave her haven, she has to place her trust in a man who is neither ghost nor human. As the noose of sorcery tightens, the search for the teenagers becomes a race against time. But the greatest danger to Maddie and Jon could be the intense feelings they refuse to acknowledge but cannot ignore.








Cider Brook (A Swift River Valley Novel) Mass Market Paperback

Unlikely partners bound by circumstance or by fate

Being rescued by a good-looking, bad-boy firefighter isn't how Samantha Bennett expected to start her stay in Knights Bridge, Massachusetts. Now she has everyone's attention — especially that of Justin Sloan, her rescuer, who wants to know why she was camped out in an abandoned old New England cider mill.

Samantha is a treasure hunter who has returned to Knights Bridge to solve a 300-year-old mystery and salvage her good name. Justin remembers her well. He's the one who alerted her late mentor to her iffy past and got her fired. But just because he doesn't trust her doesn't mean he can resist her. Samantha is daring, determined, seized by wanderlust — everything that strong, stoic Justin never knew he wanted. Until now.

 







Going Twice (Forces of Nature) Mass Market Paperback

New York Times bestselling author Sharon Sala enters the eye of the maelstrom as death and disaster stalk Tornado Alley — aided by an obsessive madman.

As bodies pile up in the wake of a storm — stripped, tortured and grimly posed—authorities must admit the unthinkable. The serial killer dubbed the Stormchaser has returned following a tornado and taken it upon himself to bring the death toll up to where he believes it belongs.

FBI investigator Wade Luckett is back on the case, assisted by an agent Wade knows professionally and personally: his ex-wife, Jo. Neither time nor the tragedy that tore them apart have blunted the ache Wade feels for brave, beautiful Jo. And though she tries to deny it, she feels the same. But the stirrings of renewed romance will have to wait until they catch a killer.

The Stormchaser has no intention of getting caught. He's set his sights on a new victim. Jo can forget about the lifetime she dreams of spending with Wade. She'll be lucky to see another day.



 



At the River's Edge: The Chesapeake Diaries [Mass Market Paperback]

After taking stock of her life, Sophie Enright has decided it’s time for a break. Between a law career that’s become criminally dull and a two-timing boyfriend she’s done with once and for all, Sophie desperately needs some time to think and some space to breathe. The perfect place to do both is easygoing St. Dennis, Maryland, where Sophie can visit with her brother while she figures out her options. Once in St. Dennis, she discovers a shuttered restaurant and makes a bold move that is also a leap of faith. Sophie buys the fixer-upper in order to finally pursue her dream career.

But Sophie’s labor of love becomes a bone of contention for her new neighbor Jason Bowers. The local landscaper has big plans for growing his business — until Sophie scoops up the property he’s got his eye on. And no amount of buyout offers or badgering from him will get her to budge. It’s hardly the start of a beautiful friendship. But when they’re paired up to work on a community project, they agree to put their differences aside, and sparks begin to fly. Then Sophie’s cheating ex suddenly shows up, looking for a second chance — and threatening to make Jason a third wheel just when his hotheaded feelings about Sophie were turning decidedly warmhearted. All Sophie wants is a new life and a true love. But what are the odds of having both?

Shadowdance: The Darkest London Series: Book 4

Once a heart is lost in shadow

Life has been anything but kind to Mary Chase. But the Society for the Suppression of Supernaturals has given her purpose. Now she's been tasked with catching a vicious murderer dubbed the Bishop of Charing Cross. But someone is already on the case-and the last thing he relishes is a partner.

Only someone who lives in darkness can find it.

Jack Talent has been alone with his demons for many years.


He never expected to have the willful Mary Chase assist him on the Bishop case. Their age-old rivalry reaches new heights-even as their desire for one another reaches a fever pitch. Though he aches to bring her close, Jack's dark secrets are a chasm between them. With dangerous enemies closing in, Jack must find the strength to face the past or risk losing Mary forever.











Last Chance Knit and Stitch

Molly Canaday wishes she could repair her life as easily as she fixes cars. She was all set to open her own body shop in Last Chance when her mother ran off and left her to manage the family yarn shop instead. Now guided by the unsolicited-though well-intended-advice of the weekly knitting club, Molly works to untangle this mess. But her plan unravels when the new landlord turns out to be difficult-as well as tall, dark, and handsome.

Simon Wolfe returns to quickly settle his father's estate and then leave Last Chance for good. Still wounded by a broken heart, Simon is surprised when the town's charming streets and gentle spirit bring back good memories. Soon the beautiful, strong-willed Molly sparks a powerful attraction that tempts him to break his iron-clad no-commitment rule. Can Simon and Molly find a way to share work space-and build a future together in Last Chance?

Manga:

In a last-ditch effort to save herself, Tsukimiya tries to drink Hinata's blood, now mixed with the vampire's pure demon blood. But in taking the blood that will save her, Tsukimiya has also transmitted the curse that will kill her. Hinata and Tsukimiya now share the curse and they're running out of time.
