#BookReview for The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air #2) by @HollyBlack


Synopsis: You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring.

The first lesson is to make yourself strong.

After the jaw-dropping revelation that Oak is the heir to Faerie, Jude must keep her younger brother safe. 


To do so, she has bound the wicked king, Cardan, to her, and made herself the power behind the throne. 

Navigating the constantly shifting political alliances of Faerie would be difficult enough if Cardan were easy to control. 

But he does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her even as his fascination with her remains undiminished.

When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complicated feelings for Cardan to maintain control as a mortal in a Faerie world.

Title: The Prince's Baby
Author: Mckenna James
Genre: Contemporary/Royal Romance
Release Date: August 19, 2019



Blurb

Allison is carrying a secret more valuable to the royal family than gold.

Allison
The Prince’s baby is kicking in my belly, but as much as I love the man, I don’t dare let him know.
When I met Crown Prince Sebastian, he swept me off my feet with his irresistible charm and gorgeous green eyes. Not to mention those broad, sexy shoulders that would one day carry the needs of an entire country upon them.
But a powerful enemy of the Crown conspires to keep us apart, and to ensure the Prince’s reputation, I’m forced to abandon the only man I’ve ever loved.
When I look into my baby’s eyes, I see his father, and I can’t help but fall in love with the man all over again.

Sebastian
As soon as she won our first verbal sparring match, I knew Allison was the woman for me.
Being a Prince, it was rare for someone to stand up to me. But Allison was different. She was as strong and intelligent as she was beautiful, and I knew I had to make her mine.
We were so happy, but now that she’s disappeared, I’ll use all my resources to find her and bring her back where she belongs.

#BookReview for Welcome to Last Chance (Last Chance #1) by Hope Ramsay


Synopsis: "The essence of Southern charm!" --- Sherryl Woods, New York Times bestselling author

Wanda Jane Coblentz arrives in Last Chance, South Carolina, with five dollars in her pocket and hopes for a fresh start. Her first goal: a hot meal. But when she walks into the local watering hole, it's the man playing in the band on stage who suddenly has her hungry. With his worn black Stetson and boots, an open black shirt, and snug black jeans, everything about him screams Danger.


Clay Rhodes knows his small hometown is off the beaten path, and it's certainly a long way from his past life in Nashville. He left a bad relationship there, and the gorgeous brunette who blows into Dot's Spot like a hurricane seems like the type who'd turn his life upside down all over again. Not to mention that bad boys like him don't rescue damsels in distress.


Thank goodness Wanda Jane plans on rescuing herself.


Includes the bonus story "A Fairytale Bride"!

At any given moment, dozens of studies are published in countless areas of knowledge – studies that bring us closer to understanding the laws of nature, as well as advance human thinking towards the future. Nevertheless, faith, religion, spirituality and divinity still play a central role in the lives of many people. With the gap between what we know and what we believe is constantly growing, the authors of this book has found it necessary to offer tools for critical thinking about the relationship between science and faith.

Chafing against misogyny and racism in the post-Civil War South, Lenore learns that Charlotte’s husband is enmeshed in the re-enslavement schemes of a powerful judge, and she worries that Gilbert’s adoration of Charlotte will lead him into disaster. 



Inspired by a production of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale, Lenore adopts the role of Paulina for herself to discover how far Charlotte’s husband bears the blame for his wife’s fate and whether or not he is capable of atonement. 



In her process of unraveling the intricacies of the lives of others, Lenore finds that Gilbert’s love for Charlotte is, indeed, his saving grace while Lenore’s passion for creative expression is her own.

He’s gorgeous, charming, and irresistible – and he knows it.

He says I’m a challenge he can’t resist.

All I want is for him to burn for me.
