Opal Cover Reveal

No one is like Daemon Black.

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I’m capable of. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever.

Together we’re stronger... and they know it.

Summer of Fun...Reading Recap

Now that the leaves are starting to fall here, I've taken a look back at the great reading list I had this summer.  I found new authors and some new series that have captured my attention, along with some old favorites that continue to entertain.  So here is my summer reading recap, in no particular order.  Maybe you'll find something you might want to read on this list!

Erotic romance is always a good place to start, isn't it?  A good part of the summer was devoted to reading Shayla Black's Wicked Lovers series.  You've got some strong, domineering alpha types here. This series was a lot of fun, not too heavy on the mind, with just the right amount of angst to make it interesting.

Another series I loved was the Ross Siblings series from Cherrie Lynn.  The second book in the series, Rock Me, was probably one of my top five favorite books this past summer.  Brian's hotness more than made up for Candace's immaturity, and their story spawned the next in the series, Leave Me Breathless, which is scheduled to release this Fall.  Really looking forward to that one!  

And the summer wasn't just all fluffy erotic romance. There were some dramatic reads too.  One of my favorites was the angst-filled story from Barbara Elsborg called Strangers. It's what happens when two dysfunctional souls save each other.  Another favorite was the first in the Original Sinners series from Tiffany Reisz called the The Siren. Ms. Reisz pushes the envelope with Nora Sutherlin's story and shows us a world that  might just make you uncomfortable.  That's the charm of this series.  Looking forward to the second book in the series, The Angel when it is released next week.

One of my secrets is that I still enjoy a good Young Adult/ New Adult books, especially after reading alot of explicit erotic romance. I was so fortunate to read two excellent offerings in the YA market.  Easy by Tammara Weber is an incredible book with a strong female character and an equally interesting love interest.  This book should be required reading by most teens for its subject matter.  I can't say enough good things about it.

 And last, but not least is my most surprising and enjoyable read of the summer. The Lux Series from Jennifer L. Armentrout is an engaging, action packed series with some incredible world building.  Opal, the third book in the series (or the fourth if you count Shadows) is also scheduled for release this fall, and that's one I will be downloading as soon as it's available.  Might even have to take a day off for that one!

Another title I am eagerly awaiting is the first book in the Heavy Influence Trilogy from Ann Marie Frohoff.  Skid Out, a novella prequel was released earlier this year. It captured my attention and I'm looking forward to reading more when the first book is release later this year.

So that was my summer reading list...how was yours?
