#BookReview: The Black Witch (The Black Witch Chronicles #1) by @laurieannforest

About the Book:

A new Black Witch will rise…her powers vast beyond imagining.

Elloren Gardner is the granddaughter of the last prophesied Black Witch, Carnissa Gardner, who drove back the enemy forces and saved the Gardnerian people during the Realm War. But while she is the absolute spitting image of her famous grandmother, Elloren is utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above all else.

When she is granted the opportunity to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an apothecary, Elloren joins her brothers at the prestigious Verpax University to embrace a destiny of her own, free from the shadow of her grandmother’s legacy. But she soon realizes that the university, which admits all manner of people—including the fire-wielding, winged Icarals, the sworn enemies of all Gardnerians—is a treacherous place for the granddaughter of the Black Witch.

As evil looms on the horizon and the pressure to live up to her heritage builds, everything Elloren thought she knew will be challenged and torn away. Her best hope of survival may be among the most unlikely band of misfits…if only she can find the courage to trust those she’s been taught to hate and fear.

My Review:Reading this a second time was fantastic!  I couldn't out it down and I loved being in this world yet again.  I love that this world is so involved because of that it was almost like reading this like the first time.  The characters are so vibrant and so real that I fell in love with each of them and really wanted to slap others.  I love how Elloren goes from being a sheltered girl to being an advocate for whats right.  She goes through so many changes in this novel and if you are one of those that have written this one off because of the issues that people say about it. You should really read it for yourself.  Elloren starts out as somewhat predigest and closed minded but then her eyes are opened to this whole world and her thoughts and actions change so much during this story.  She grows and becomes one of my favorite charters by the end of this.  

The story and world building in this one is so breath taking!  I could not put it down and the author does a wonderful job with creating this enormous world. This book is one of the best that I have read with world building that if you were whisked away and found yourself there nothing would be missing. The pacing of the story flows so well that it takes you on a journey and doesn't let you go until the very end. 

Do I Recommend this book? Yes this is one of the best books I have ever read!

#BookBlitz for Climbing The Walls by @authorsfortune @XpressoTours #Giveaway ($25 Amazon gift card)

Climbing The Walls
Sacha T. Y. Fortuné
(Hart & Cole, #1)
Publication date: July 28th 2018
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance
***Real emotion. Real life. Real love. This is NOT a glossy love story. But if you’re looking for a romance read that will rattle you… characters that will change you… and love that will last in your mind long after you’re finished… THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU.***
—
Kris fell, head over heels over hormones, for the damaged b*tch who became his power-woman sex-goddess wife.
All Nicole wants is to be a better mother, and a wife more worthy of the husband she loves with every fibre of her body, but she is constantly yanked away by her job and her overbearing boss Darren Hart.
But Darren has marital problems of his own – and, when he confides in her, Nicole realises just how easily a happy marriage can crumble.
…Can she keep her own from doing the same?
Told from both points of view, “Climbing The Walls” explores the fibres that hold a marriage together – love, trust, forgiveness… and of course, the earth-shattering sex that will not be denied.

#ReleaseBoost for The Reality of Wright and Wrong by @LeddyHarper @GiveMeBooksPR #Giveaway ($25 Amazon gift card)

Blurb

“Save me and have me, fix me and I’m yours.”

What do you do when you catch your fiancé grinding on another woman? Well, if you’re me, you run off with a sexy, ink-covered tattoo artist who goes by the name Wrong. 

Then you marry him after a week. 

This isn’t a story of love at first sight—love didn’t come into play until after I had ruined it all. It’s the reality of what is right and what is wrong when it comes to soulmates.

#BookBlitz for Just Like Animals by @hettie_ivers @XpressoTours #Giveaway A Kindle Paperwhite

Just Like Animals
Hettie Ivers
(Werelock Evolution #5)
Publication date: August 28th 2018
Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance
“Hot, humorous, and dirty in the best possible way. Amazingly well written. Highly recommend!!!” —Anna Zaires, New York Times bestselling author
For ten long years, I stayed away to protect her.
I thought I’d successfully subverted my wolf’s instincts where Bethany was concerned.
But when I saw her on that dance floor, my inner beast took over.
I told myself it would be just one dance. One dance and I’d let her go.
I didn’t mean to bite her.
Or f*ck her in the middle of a crowded dance club.
Or kidnap her… again.
NOTE: “Just Like Animals is a fast-paced dirty ride” (to quote a reviewer). The romance between the main couple is written to work as a standalone for readers new to the Werelock Evolution world. However, please note that this is book number 5 within the Werelock Evolution series, so it also continues elements of the overarching storyline for the world. 90k word, full-length novel. HEA with NO cheating.
