Lost Girl (Wolf Girl #2) By: Leia Stone

 

     Demi has just been kidnapped by vampires and Sawyer is under some type of love spell. Now Demi got to traipse through the entire Magic Lands without getting killed to make it back to Werewolf City...hopefully in one piece. 
     Everything would have worked out as planned if Sawyer hadn't gone on another revenge killing spree in Demi's honor. Now the entire magical world is at war, and Demi and her True Mate are stuck in the middle of it. 
     It's just another Monday. 

     While the first book in this series pulled me in right from the beginning the same cannot be said for Lost Girl. While I did enjoy reading Lost Girl I found myself not being as into it as I was for the first book in this series. Don't get me wrong I still plan on reading the next book in this series and I know I will want to read these books again, I just know this one won't hold my attention as well as its predecessor.

Shattered Souls (The Harkwright Trilogy #3) By: B C Morgan

      Maybe if she says it enough Luna will believe that she's ready for year three. It's nearly upon them, and Luna's not even sure that will be the most worrying thing she will have to face. Luna may be free from one of the Harkwrights, but another is taking his place. A wildcard and mystery. Whether he's better or worse than the one he's replacing remains to be seen. 
      If she keeps baking Luna might succeed in fooling herself into believing she is safe. That everything that has happened in the past two years was just a nightmare. But really that's just wishful thinking, because there are some things even fresh bread and homemade cakes cannot fix. 
      Luna has a lot of things to consider and she doesn't know where to begin. From facing the way she feels, to questioning every belief she holds. Luna doesn't know who she will be when she comes out of this, or where her path will finally lead. 
      One thing Luna knows for sure, she's not the same girl she was when she first entered the Academy, she's stronger, and hopefully wiser. She's come this far and she will see it through. 

      I have been waiting with anticipation to read the conclusion of the Harkwright Trilogy and I want to start out by saying I was not prepared for how long this conclusion was going to be. When I opened the book and saw that it was over 600 pages I was surprise but I was also ready to begin. Since Shattered Souls is so long I held off on reading right away because I knew it would take longer to read and I wanted to make sure it had my undivided attention. Now having finished both this book and this series I can say I am in love with this series and will be reading these books over and over again.

Sex, Not Love By: Vi Keeland


      Natalia's relationship with Hunter Delucia started backwards. 
      They met at a wedding - him sitting on the groom's side, her sitting on the bride's. Stealing glances at each other throughout the night, there was no denying an intense, mutual attraction. 
      Natalia caught the bouquet; he caught the garter. Hunter held Natalia tightly while they danced and suggested they explore the chemistry sparking between them. His blunt, dirty mouth should've turned Natalia off. But for some crazy reason, it had the opposite effect on her.
      The two ended up back in Natalia hotel room. The next morning, she headed home to New York leaving him behind in California with the wrong number.
       Natalia thought about Hunter often, but after her last relationship, she'd sworn off of charming, cocky, gorgeous-as-sin men. A year later, Hunter and Natalia met again at the birth of their friends' baby. Their attraction hadn't dulled one bit. After a whirlwind trip, he demanded a real phone number this time. So she left him with her mother's - she could scare away any man with her talk of babies and marriage - and flew back home. 
       Natalia thought it was funny, until the following week when he rang the bell at her Mom's house for Sunday night dinner. The crazy, gorgeous man had won over her mother and taken an eight-week assignment in her city. He proposed they spend that time screwing each other out of their systems. 
       Eight weeks of mind-blowing sex with no strings attached? What did Natalia have to lose?
       Nothing, she thought. It's just sex, not love. But you know what they say about the best laid plans...
     
       By now, I've read a few books by Vi Keeland and while I loved her books at in the beginning, I can't say the same about the few books of hers that I have read recently. Sex, Not Love started off good enough it just wasn't enough to keep me interested as the story continued. If this continues I might have to stop reading books by her altogether and that would be a shame because like I said I did like her stories at first. I think I'll give Vi Keeland's books a few more tries before I just give up entirely.
