"With one last look, one final search of the lines of his face for some sign, Kira turned and ran away from the sound of the man she loved laughing in the face of her death."

When Kira Dawson moves to South Carolina, she meets Luke, a blond goofball who quickly becomes her best friend, and Tristan, a mysterious bad boy who sends shivers down her spine. Kira knows they're keeping secrets, but when she discovers Tristan's lust for blood and her own dormant mystical powers, Kira is forced to fight for her life and make the heartbreaking decision between the familiar comfort of friendship and the fiery passion of love.

RAVE REVIEWS for the Midnight Fire Series! 
"The writing is effortlessly mind blowing. I could not put this entire series down. Once you're hooked, you won't either because it'll eat you up not knowing what happened! And then you'll pick a team like I did and you'll fall in love with all the characters and you'll want all the bad guys to die horribly! Just trust me when I say it really is your loss to miss out on this series! It's a blaze of glory!" - Happy Tales and Tails Blog

"Kaitlyn Davis writes some of the best action scenes I have come across in a young adult book; they are fast paced and so well delivered making this more than just a silly romance." - Reflections of a Bookworm

"The only downside to this series, is that it ended. But the ending was beautiful." - My Seryniti

"Kira isn't a human girl who is one dimensional and in love with a vampire. She's a well-thought out character who comes to life from the pages and steals into your heart. Read the books. Do it." - Urban Girl Reader

"I love and hate how fast of a read this was! I love it because I couldn't get enough of it and hate it because once I finished I wanted more!" - I Just Wanna Sit Here And Read

"I really enjoyed Ms Davis's writing, I was riveted throughout and was eager to see what would happen - there was drama, danger, action and romance that was wonderfully detailed and described." - Obsession With Books


"You'll make friends with Kira, choose sides with Tristan and Luke, and fall in love with the story at heart about a girl with so bright a future....even shades aren't gonna cut it." - Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers

About the Author
I've always been a writer. I grew up duct taping my novels together, started writing complete manuscripts in high school and studied creative writing at Johns Hopkins University. Upon graduating, I decided it was finally time to actually give my dream career a chance. So, of course, I started writing a young adult paranormal romance series -- and no, I'm not jumping on the bandwagon. I've been a true paranormal supporter for my entire life! I blame my obsession almost completely on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, my all-time favorite television show. And, before you ask: Yes, I own every season... even the post WB ones! I especially challenge anyone to watch the first three seasons and not fall in love with Angel, securing a lifelong love of vampires! Other culprits of my paranormal obsession are some of my favorite authors: JK Rowling, Raymond Feist, Meg Cabot, Richelle Mead, Lynne Ewing and Tamora Pierce.

All she wanted was to conquer him... 
Instead, they both got a reason to change their minds...

... Never Say Never.



Never Say Never follows two friends, Kasey and Jonah, that have known each other just short of forever. In a single moment, they decide to take their friendship to a different level...with no strings attached. Neither of them intended for things to go so far. Kasey and Jonah fall, fight, and re-fall for each other in only ways that the two of them can. Knowing each other's past can be a double-edged sword. But in Harden Fields, there are always skeletons left hanging in the closet...they just don't hang around for long.

{Review} Witch Finder @ruthwarburton

Witch Finder (Witch Finder, #1)
London. 1880. In the slums of Spitalfields apprentice blacksmith Luke is facing initiation into the Malleus Maleficorum, the fearsome brotherhood dedicated to hunting and killing witches.

Luke’s final test is to pick a name at random from the Book of Witches, a name he must track down and kill within a month, or face death himself. Luke knows that tonight will change his life forever. But when he picks out sixteen-year-old Rosa Greenwood, Luke has no idea that his task will be harder than he could ever imagine.






Ruth WarburtonI prefer cheese to chocolate (but would eat either, if you're offering). 

I grew up on a reading diet of my mum's classics (Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice) my dad's sci-fi/fantasy (A Wizard of Earthsea, Dune) and the Jilly Cooper novels passed around school at break time. I always wanted to be a writer but I never thought it would happen.

I was born and raised in Sussex on the south coast of England, and I went to school in Lewes and Brighton, but I now live in London, and A Witch in Winter was my first book.

For more information or to contact me, visit my website www.ruthwarburton.com





The beginning of this one had me hooked.  But, as the story unfolded I found myself wanting to stop reading.  It was slow paced and was lacking that mystery~adventure!  The characters didn't really add value to their story.  Other than Luke watching his family being murdered and didn't do anything about and living with the guilt of that choice as well as being marked because of it.  I didn't really get into this one.  Rosa was such a whinny character.  All she did in the start was complain about her life with no goal to change it.  I think the plot was interesting just the execution was a fail.

{MovieMonday} {Review} {Giveaway} Now You See Me


So I thought why wait until Jan to post this one!  I have an extra code to this movie.
  It was one of my favs of 2013 and I'm sure you will all feel the same! 


Four gifted street magicians—J. Daniel Atlas, Henley Reeves, Jack Wilder, and Merritt McKinney—are brought together by an unknown benefactor and, one year later, perform in Las Vegas as "The Four Horsemen," sponsored by insurance magnate Arthur Tressler. For the finale, a member of the audience is invited to help them in their next trick: robbing a bank. That audience member is Étienne Forcier, an account holder at the Crédit Républicain de Paris. Forcier is apparently teleported to his bank in Paris, where he activates an air-duct that vacuums up the money and showers it onto the crowd in Las Vegas.

This giveaway is open to everyone! This is for a digital code that can be used with iTunes, UltraViolet etc.  It will be a one time use for the movie Now You See Me.

I loved this movie! It keeps you on your toes and you never know what is going to happen!

{Review} Stick Dog Wants A Hot Dog #TomWatson @HarperCollinsCh

Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog
In Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog, Tom Watson's hilarious sequel to Stick Dog, Stick Dog returns with the same crew of friends, and they're hungrier than ever. As the dogs embark on their quest for hot dogs, they learn they're not the only ones on a mission—a band of raccoons are following close behind, and they're ravenous, too!

In this second book, Stick Dog and his four friends, Poo-Poo, Mutt, Stripes, and Karen, must execute a master plan for stealing hot dogs. The closer they get to the hot dog vendor, the more difficult their mission becomes. With the same hilarious antics, the five dogs are met with many challenges along the way, including having to distract the frankfurter guy and Karen getting locked in a human's house. No matter what, these dogs have their eyes—and stomachs—on the prize.

5 Stars
My 9 year old daughter loved this book so much she asked if I could donate it to her class.  Which we did.  She loved that the book was written on lined paper like the Dork Daries and others of its kind.  Which made it very easy to follow.  We believe that this will deff. help out kids that have reading issues.  As it makes sure that they don't loose their spot.  Even though this is a book two you won't be lost in the story.  The author takes the time to introduce you to the characters and why he draws stick dog the way he does.  As well as talking and explaining about his friends.  This was a very cute and entertaining read and will appeal to the boy crowed as much as the girls.

{Review} Kat McGee and the School of Christmas Spirit @NovelNibble @intogethermedia

Kat McGee and The School of Christmas Spirit
If Kat McGee had one Christmas wish, she'd wish to be special. Instead, she's the boring middle in a family packed with sparkly siblings, including three sisters who have all starred as Mary in Totsville, Maine's annual big-deal Christmas Pageant. All Kat's done is wet her pants on a rollercoaster and earn herself the horrible nickname, "Kat McPee." When she doesn't get the part of Mary, Kat's convinced that Christmas will be just another Kat McPee failure. But then Kat's beloved Gram lets it slip that she went to school with Mrs. Claus. The Mrs. Claus. Before Kat knows it, a magical snowglobe whisks her away to the North Pole, where she makes friends, checks naughty and nice lists, and takes classes in cookie baking, reindeer training, and toy designing. It's a Christmas miracle... But something is wrong. The North Pole is being threatened, and only Kat McGee can help. Kat McGee and The School of Christmas Spirit is about a modern girl in a magical adventure. Kat is about to learn who you can be if you believe in Christmas... and yourself.

Biography

Rebecca Munsterer is the author of Novel Nibble, a website dedicated to short and sweet writing. Her two books, Mrs. Claus and The School of Christmas Spririt, and The Little Rippers, were both written during the summer. To find inspiration to write about the winter in July, she drank hot chocolate instead of lemonade.

Ms. Munsterer received a bachelor's degree in writing from Colby College and a MALS degree in creative writing from Dartmouth.

She lives in Norwich, Vermont with her lazy labrador retriever and an array of wild animals who howl in the middle of the night.





5 Stars
This book was adorable!  From the drawn pictures throughout to the Reading guide which goes per chapter with Vocab words and Discussion questions.  This is a great read for kids who know how and are having issues answering questions when the book is over.  My 9 year old found this book very helpful in that regard.  Within this Readers Guide are activities as well. Another great thing in this book is the CandyFruit Recipe at the Back of the book created by Celebrity Chef Tom Colicchio and Umber Ahmad's Mah-Ze-Dahr Bakery. Having this celebrity chef create the recipe for all of the Kat McGee Adventures is such an amazing thing, and the publisher and author are very excited to let everyone know!
