  2. Loving the Legends of Chaos: My Thoughts on “The Never List” by Jade Presley

    The Never List by Jade Presley 18+ Contains Adult Content The Never List is a why-choose, enemies-to-lovers, fantasy romance that follows Rylee, who is an Ashlander and a Demi, 2 things hated by the Kings. After Rylee's sister goes missing, Rylee and her friends decide to attend the choosing ceremony with a forged invitation. The choosing ceremony is for the 4 princes known as the legends of chaos to find their mate, the one woman who can tether them when they come into their full powers. Rylee is only there to see if her sister's name is on the never list; she certainly isn't there to be chosen, but when Jax calls her number, she has no choice but to go and make them fall in love with her in hopes that when they find out she is a Demi from Ashlander, they won't kill her. The imbalance of power became a catalyst for betrayal by their people, so the goddesses wanted to ensure their sons, their only heirs, would never suffer the same fate. They used their magic to call forth for their sons only one mate who would connect them all, to act as their tether to the people of Lumathyst and ground them if their hunger for power ever grew too large.

  7. Unravelling Past Secrets: A Deep Dive into C.J. Tudor’s “The Chalk Man”

    The Chalk Man by C.J. Tudor The Chalk Man is a mystery/thriller that follows Eddie and his friends. In 1986, as preteens, the group came across the body of a young girl, but her head was nowhere to be found. This was all strange enough as is, but what led the boys to the girl's body in the first place was even stranger...drawings of chalk men. Now in 2016, the boys are adults, and not as close-knit as they once were. Eddie knows who they say killed the girl, but he doesn't believe it. It's been 30 years, but maybe they can figure out who actually killed her. It never came. There were extensive searches, questions and appeals but, despite the best efforts of all the detectives and all the town's men, her head was never found, and the girl in the woods was never put together again. […]

  12. From A Marriage of Convenience to Love: Cassidy and Finn’s Story in The Neighborly Thing To Do.

    The Neighborly Thing To Do by Addison James 18+ Contains Adult Content I received an advanced copy of this book at no charge. This is my honest, voluntary review. The Neighborly Thing To Do follows Cassidy and Finn. Cassidy is a human living in Hearthstone, a supernatural town. After sending her younger sister off to college, Cassidy is confronted by the town's bylaws, which state that she can't stay in the town unless she is legally connected to a supernatural creature. Finn is Cassidy's neighbour, who is known as the grumpy recluse artist gargoyle. He's watched Cassidy give up everything to raise her younger sister, and he is not going to stand by and let her be kicked out of town. If she is connected to a supernatural creature, she can stay...so if Finn marries Cassidy... There are a lot of differences between us, I remind myself. Age, species-no wonder she didn't immediately jump to that conclusion. […]
