Missing Lily
By Annette K. Larsen

missing lily


“You don’t know who I am,” I whispered. He didn’t move—either away from me, or closer—and after an interminable moment, I stepped back and hurried out of the house.
 
He didn’t follow me as I fled into the night.
 
Lylin was not used to being alone—much less alone, hurt, and lost. So when she is separated from her guard and forced to abandon her horse, she counts herself lucky to stumble upon a manor house. Still frightened by those who chased her into the night, she keeps her identity a secret, calling herself Lily as she accepts the help of kind servants, and the compassion of Lord Fallon. When they fall into an easy friendship, she wonders if her secrecy was too hasty. However, as she gets to know the manor and its residents, Lylin discovers that she’s not the only one hiding secrets, and it may be a very good thing that her host doesn’t know her true identity as a member of the royal family.

Annette

I was born in Utah, part of a crazy, fun family of nine. I grew up in Flagstaff, AZ and St. Louis, MO before striking out on my own college adventure in Virginia. I decided to try my hand at writing novels after I was married and living in Idaho. I write clean romance because it’s my favorite genre, but often difficult to find.

I have Charlotte Brontë to thank for the courage to write novels. After being bombarded with assigned reading about women who justified abandoning either their families or their principles in the name of love, I had the great fortune of reading Jane Eyre. And that was it: finally, a heroine who understood that being moral and making the right choice was hard, and sometimes it hurt, but it was still worth it. After rereading it several years later, I realized that if I wanted more books to exist with the kinds of heroines I admired, then I might as well write a few myself. My books are about women who face hard choices, who face pain and rejection and often have to face the reality of sacrificing what they want for what is right. The consequences are often difficult or unpleasant, but in the end, doing what’s right will always be worth it.
 
I believe there is no substitute for good writing or good chocolate. Fortunately, one often leads to the other.

Review- Barely Undercover by Sarah Castille

Title- Barely Undercover
Author- Sarah Castille
Genre- Adult Fiction
Release Date- 3rd of December 2013
Publisher- Samhain Publishing
GOODREADS

Review copy provided by author.

Blurb- When private investigator Lana Parker follows a dangerous biker into an underground sex club, James Hunter is the last man she expects to see. But there he is, all dark looks and chiseled charms, ready to break her heart all over again.

Danger is the name of the game for an undercover cop. And the last thing James wants is for the fiery beauty to come anywhere near the notorious biker gang he's trying to take down. Yet Lana has no intention of giving up her case, which means he'll have to keep her close to keep her safe. A risky proposition-especially when their blazing sexual chemistry reignites an unforgettable passion.


But when a dark terror emerges from the past, Lana goes on the run...and James gives up everything to save her. Backed into a corner, Lana must face her fears, including the one thing that frightens her most...her overwhelming feelings for the man whose searing glance sparks her most hidden desires, the man she should not trust, but cannot resist.

Warning: The book contains violence, explicit sex, light bondage, heavy swearing, motorcycle sexy times, bad-ass biker naughty times, and an exceptionally hot hero who will get down and dirty anywhere but under the covers.


 5 Sassy Books!

Review- There is something you should know about me. I am a sucker for long hair, facial scruff, badass, overprotective sexy characters and in Barely Undercover I got everything I could want delivered by the crazy talented Sarah Castille.

The blurb pretty much covers the main storyline but what it doesn't cover is intensity of it. The characters are intense and full of depth and oh so smoking hot. Sarah took her time with exposing the characters and their pasts, making sure to keep me hooked with a need to want to know more about them. Especially James (Ice), SWOON! What a hunk! I need me one of him! Brooding, strong, LONG HAIR, FACIAL SCRUFF, add in some biker leather and the most intense personality and you have some seriously damp panties.

The story itself was full on and in a good way. It was full of realistic and dramatic biker gang related scenes that are so raw and unbridled, even scarey is some parts. From drug and gun smuggling to kidnapping and the mishandling of women, it sure made for addictive and entertaining reading.

Sarah delivered toe curling, shiver making, underwear soaking sex scenes so hot and intense that I thought the pages would combust in front of me. Lana and James' relationship was sizzling and full of depth which I loved reading because I felt the emotion behind it. It wasn't just another book romance full of sex and no emotion.

Barely Undercover had me addicted from start to finish, absorbed with every word and if you love an action packed, no barriers, steaming hot read then you will be too!

I killed a girl last night. I did it with my bare hands and an old piece of pipe I found lying next to the dumpster. But that’s not the part that got me. The part that scared me, the part I can’t seem to wrap my head around and still has me reeling, was that when she charged me, her body shifted – and then she was a wolf. All snapping teeth and extended claws. But by the time I stood over her lifeless body, she was a girl again. That’s about the time I went into shock… And that was the moment he showed up.

Now, all I can do is accept the truths that are staring me in the face. One, Werewolves do exist. And Two, I was born to kill them.

Two Seattle 16-year-olds, Jatred and Jasmira, are not your typical star-crossed lovers. They are not even your typical Shape Shifters. Sure, they try to live an ordinary life. At least, as ordinary as the Prince and the Princess of the rivaling ancient Races--the Winter wolves and the Summer leopards--can live. But eventually they learn that not much about their existence can be normal. Especially when the Races' two commanding Goddesses are involved. 

One of the Goddesses is on a quest to tilt the scale of power to her side. The other will never let it happen, even if it means kicking Jatred and Jasmira's love to the curb. Nothing is off limits, including removing Jatred's memories of Jasmira. 

To complicate things even more, there are the Universe's powers to consider. They are trapped in an ancient Amulet in order to protect the stability of the world. But the Universe has a mind of its own, and when the powers are unleashed, the forces of nature are disturbed; earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions shake the Earth. All Shifters of both Races are summoned by their respective Goddesses to fight in the name of, or against, the normalcy of the world.

Two strange and beautiful boys have other plans, however.

As she delves deeper into the magic of the stone and the Celtic lore that surrounds it, Valerie realizes that she's losing. Again. But this loss might involve more than a magical stone – this time, she just might lose her heart.

Blurb- Love vs Life.
Good vs Evil.
War vs Warfare.

Amongst the ensuing chaos, Nate and Hermia — two victims of the new world order — are taken against their will to The Compound.

A war awaits...regardless of how ready or willing they may be.



 
2 Sassy Books

Review- When I first received Enmity and read the blurb I was quite excited to read it. It sounded fast paced, exciting and full of action.

It was anything but.

It started out pretty good. A prologue that drew me in with it's fast pace and a character in hysteria due to the impending solar flare that would change the world as she knows it. Abandoned by her parents and left to bunker down alone, hoping for survival. 
  
We are then into the story. Following Hermia and Nate, alternating between their points of view, never to hear of the character from the prologue again. Which had me questioning what was the point of her? It didn't really make sense to me. I was hoping to find out what had happened to her but never did.

The rest of the storyline is fairly confusing. Hermia and Nate are kidnapped and taken to a compound to be trained and used to kill their captors enemy. There isn't much of an explanation as to who is running the new world or why and how the world got to the way it is.  I found the whole story to lack depth and meaning. I couldn't fully invest myself into it because it was hard for me to establish a decent connection to it and it's characters. It really was a let down. The concept is great but the delivery needs work as well as more insight and definition.

If you want to try it out for yourself it is available to purchase in any good book store throughout Australia or online through the following links:
