Fashionably Dead in Diapers by Robyn Peterman [SBM Review]


Fashionably Dead in Diapers
(The Hot Damned Series Book 4)












And I thought being half Vampyre/half Demon was hard…That’s nothing compared to being a mother. Sweet baby Moses in a boob tube, there aren’t any books on raising True Immortals so let me give you a few tips… 
~Make a map of every closet and bathroom in your home if you enjoy having sex. Sleep deprivation can cause confusion and a map will help if you only have seven minutes and thirty-one seconds. You’re welcome. 
~Parenting books are useless if you're not human. If your child is half Vampyre/ half Demon I would suggest not using parenting books at all--they can backfire like a mother humper. Trust me on this. 
~Have sex. 
~When your child tells you he has an imaginary friend, do not discount this as fantasy. Often times your child isn't imagining anything. If he persists with alarming and violent stories about this fictional buddy it's probably a Troll. Do a thorough search of your home and kill it. Decapitation works best. Some imaginary friends are harmless. However, it's wise not to take chances. 
~Have sex again. 
~When in large crowds, make sure you hold tight to your child's hand. Losing a child in an amusement park is terrifying. If you're truly paranoid a parent could consider putting a chip in their child. If you do this don't discuss it at dinner parties. People will think you are weird. 
~At least cuddle. 
~Playing with dolls is fun. Being one? No so much. If your child ever finds a Genie in a bottle, flush it immediately. Many children wish for things that are very difficult to reverse...like being doll sized. If this happens, move to Oz. There are many people of small stature there. And yes, it really does exist. 
~Find a closet and go to town. 


I love this series and all it's characters. I love reading Peterman. Her stories are always fun and exciting. I know when I read a Peterman story I am going to be smiling for more than one reason! The steamy scenes just make me envious! The baby is just perfect. I wanted to reach into the story and just pinch his little cheek!! This series just keeps getting better and better and I can't wait to go on the next adventure. 


Ready to Were by Robyn Peterman [SBM Review]


Ready to Were
(Shift Happens Series Book One)







I never planned on going back to Hung Island, Georgia. Ever.

I was a top notch Were agent for the secret paranormal Council and happily living in Chicago where I had everything I needed – a gym membership, season tickets to the Cubs and Dwayne – my gay, Vampyre best friend. Going back now would mean facing the reason I’d left and I’d rather chew my own paw off than deal with Hank. 

Hank the Tank Wilson was the six foot three, obnoxious, egotistical, perfect-assed, best-sex-of-my-life, Werewolf who cheated on me and broke my heart. At the time, I did what any rational woman would do. I left in the middle of the night with a suitcase, big plans and enough money for a one-way bus ticket to freedom. I vowed to never return. 

But here I am, trying to wrap my head around what has happened to some missing Weres without wrapping my body around Hank. I hope I don’t have to eat my words and my paw.


I just love Peterman and her amazing imagination! I always know when I read a Peterman book I'm going to be smiling!! This story was funny and dangerous. I just loved Dwayne. Who wouldn't want a gay vampire bf!!  The story was fun and exciting. It has mystery and suspense. It had surprises I wasn't expecting.  Of course the steamy scene will have your e-reader smokin'. I can't wait to continue the adventure. 


Chrysoprase by B. Kristine McMichael [SBM Review]


Chrysoprase
(The Chalceony Chronicles Book 2)







Mari had her time in the past and is finally home. Unfortunately, she didn't understand the goddess' warning that traveling to the past would have consequences. She could never have imagined what they would be, but she quickly finds out that not everything is the way she left it. Now Mari must learn how to time travel if she wants to put her life back into the order it was before she went into the past to be with Seth. Mari soon discovers that time traveling isn't as easy as she thought it, and the goddess refuses to help her learn. Mari must turn to an old friend, someone she never planned to see again, and get his help if she wants to right what she has changed. But even that might come with a price.


Mari travels into the past again to find loved ones. Her journey brings more questions, and a few answers, to the puzzle that is her life. Mari can quickly see why her mother went to the future, and Mari needs to do the same as soon as she can to bring her loved ones back. The past is far more complicated, and dangerous than she ever imagined--particularly for Mari. She might just be the piece everyone is seeking in their own puzzles to control not only the past but the future, too.


I am loving this series. Time traveling has never been so much fun! Mari is on a mission to put her family back together and find the love of her life. Going back to Egypt is going to be dangerous but she is willing to risk anything for those she loves. The story is fun and exciting. It's full of mystery and suspense. The love triangle is keeping me on the edge of my seat. I can't wait to read the next installment of the series.


Anna by Julia Crane [SBM Review]


Anna






Follow Anna from Keegan's Chronicles on her own adventure!

Seventeen-year-old Anna is an unskilled, natural witch still seeking a way to access her magick. When she moves to Seattle for college, she encounters two powerful witches who need her as much as she needs them. For the first time, Anna believes she's found someone who can help her explore her own magick. 

Her dream quickly turns into a nightmare. 

Creatures of the Light have gone missing, and the witches she admires so well are a part of the mystery.

Before she knows it, Anna is knee deep in the disappearances and trying to forge a relationship with a certain soldier named Tommy, all while trying to find her way. Will she have time to save the creatures of the light or will she become the next victim?


This was such a fun adventure. I loved Anna. She has to figure out how to use her powers and luckily she has friends who are there to help her. The boo was funny, exciting, suspenseful, and kept me on the edge of my seat. Once I started it I couldn't put it down. I can't wait to read more from Crane and enjoy another one of her adventures.

Ted Saves the World by Bryan Cohen [SBM Review]


Ted Saves The World








Ted Finley was your typical, wise-cracking teenager… …until an otherworldly force gave him abilities beyond his wildest dreams.
After an unintended public display of his powers, Ted has become an instant celebrity and the target of a gang of undead thugs.
Sixteen-year-old Erica LaPlante was six-feet-under when a blast of blue light brought her body back to life. Armed with the consciousness of a fierce warrior, Erica must keep her teenage urges at bay to protect the newfound hero.
When sparks fly between Ted and Erica, Erica wants nothing more than to hide who she really is and the dangerous mission they must face. But when their school comes under attack, Ted and Erica must use everything at their disposal to save their friends, the town and... well, the world.


This was such a fun adventure. Ted is destined to save the world. He doesn't know why, but he does know he can be what ever he wants to be. This story is perfect for younger readers. It's exciting, suspenseful, and a lot of fun! Even though Ted is the main character of the book the female characters are strong and caring. I know this is a book I'll be sharing with my teenage daughter. 


Naughty King by Michelle A. Valentine [SBM Review]


Naughty King







The King Always Gets His Way.
Women, business, pleasure: When I want it, I get it.
I’m never denied.
Including her.
I will break her. 
I will show her who the king of this city really is. 
The Feisty Princess of Manhattan will learn I am not a man that can be tempted.
No matter how fucking bad I want her in my bed.


This was a sexy and fun read. The King grabbed my attention from the first page!!  He knows who he is and what he wants. He may have met his match with him new assistant. I love his Yamada. Everyone needs a friend like him! The story is told in both main characters point of view. I love being inside the characters head and having a better understating of who they really are. The story is fast paced and never gave me a chance to catch my breath. I can't wait to read the next book.

Carnelian by B.Kristin McMichael [SBM Review]


Carnelian
(The Chalcedony Chronicles Book 1)







Everyone has a past, but for most it isn’t as long ago as Seth Sangre. His past is literally thousands of years ago. Seth’s life led him to the present seeking something that might help him save his country from destruction. He has been in the present for over three years now and just found exactly what he has been looking for.

Mari had dreams that college will be a fresh start, one where she would start over and not fall for the good looking player like high school. Unfortunately for her, that’s exactly what ends up falling into her lap on the first day she moves into the dorms. Now she has to hold to her promise to herself and not fall for the handsome Seth. But he doesn’t plan to make it easy for her. Seth has already marked her as his next conquest. As the semester progresses, Mari learns that Seth might just have a life of his own that’s actually from the past. Suddenly Mari finds her future along with her past put into question. She’s connected to Seth far more than she ever wanted to be and maybe the player isn’t who she thought he was. If Mari can trust her heart enough to follow him, Seth will lead Mari on an adventure of a lifetime and reveal family secrets she never knew existed


What a great adventure. For me the story started out slow. I gradually became invested in the characters and the love story. I love time travel stories and this was my first trip to Egypt. The story line is unique and original. In this first book I got a great back ground on the story and characters. There is still much more to learn and I can't wait to find out what happens in the next book. Before I even finished this book I bought the next book.
