 Melanie's future hinges on her meeting with Tristan's sister, Arabella. The dragonwoman suffered at the hands of a group of dragon hunters a decade ago, and she hates humans even more than Tristan. Can Melanie find a way to break through the female dragon-shifter's barriers? And even if she does, will it be enough to convince Tristan to give her a chance?

Sacrificed to the Dragon: Part Three is 15,300 words of dragon-shifter/BBW romance. It is the third entry in the Sacrificed serial, chronicling Melanie Hall's efforts to fulfill her contract and conceive a dragon-shifter child. The story contains strong sexual themes and language, and is not intended for readers under the age of 18. These stories are meant to be read in order. Thank you.

 Jessie Donovan wrote her first story at age five, and after discovering the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey in junior high, realized that people actually wanted to read stories like those floating around inside her head. From there on out, she was determined to tap into her over-active imagination and write a book someday.

After living abroad for five years and earning degrees in Japanese, Anthropology, and Secondary Education, she buckled down and finally wrote her first full-length book. While that story will never see the light of day, it laid the world-building groundwork of what would become her debut paranormal romance, Blaze of Secrets.

The one thing you'll find in all of Jessie's stories are strong, capable women and the people who love them.

 Tristan and Melanies story unfolds even more as she continues to proceed getting to know the young dragon children and his people. His human half starts to see beyond his prejudices of the human race and see her for the woman she is.

When she continues to help those in need he starts to fall for her as much as his dragon does. And carrying his child brings her closer to him but everything is still not sunshine and roses. I can't wait to read the rest of the story to see what happens. I haven't been able to put this story down.

 Abandoned and humiliated, Melanie tries her best to maintain her composure as Bram explains the reason for Tristan leaving--something called a “mate claim frenzy”. In other words, the next time Tristan comes face to face with her, his inner dragon will take control and claim her for his own. Both Bram and Samira try to convince her to accept his attentions earlier than her contract specifies or risk putting not only herself, but also the members of their clan in danger.

Tristan stays away from Melanie as long as possible, but to prevent his dragon from completely taking over, he returns to Stonefire’s lands the afternoon after the First Kiss ceremony. When he shows up naked on Melanie’s doorstep, his human-half maintains control long enough to garner her consent.

Now it’s only a matter of time before Melanie conceives and fulfills her contract. But once she does, will Tristan overcome his hatred of humans and stay with her, or will he push her away?

 In exchange for a vial of dragon’s blood to save her brother’s life, Melanie Hall offers herself up as a sacrifice to one of the British dragon-shifter clans. Being a sacrifice means signing a contract to live with the dragon-shifters for six months to try to conceive a child. Her assigned dragonman, however, is anything but easy. He’s tall, broody, and alpha to the core. There’s only one problem—he hates humans.

Due to human dragon hunters killing his mother, Tristan MacLeod despises humans. Unfortunately, his clan is in desperate need of offspring to repopulate their numbers and it’s his turn to service a human female. Despite his plans to have sex with her and walk away, his inner dragon has other ideas. The curvy human female tempts his inner beast like no other.

For Everything A Season Tiffanys Review

Title:For Everything A Season
Author:Sharon Page
Publisher:Self Published
ASIN:B00LBL7T9W
Pages:231

Not all the witch trials took place in Salem. And there are people in nearby Rachael Crossing who believe the abandoned old house in their midst has roots going back to those awful times.

Determined not to be spooked by vague rumors, Deborah Colby leases that house for the summer and when she meets Ethan Burke, she's certain she's made the right decision - certain her whole life has been leading her there to him.

  I started writing stories as soon as I learned how to put letters together to form words. From that day forward, writing has been a part of my life whether it was my first attempt at a novel in seventh grade or the little plays I wrote for my friends to perform for neighbors and family. After college, when I was busy teaching French and Spanish to high school students, I was also writing poetry -- often in French.

After several years, I left teaching to be a full time mom, and when my two children started school, I went back to writing. To my delight I found that the muse was still there, still waiting patiently for me to come around. My first novel, Ghostfire, was published at that time. It went on to be condensed in Redbook magazine (the first paperback original the magazine had ever condensed.) Then came The God Children and The Portal. Redbook also published my first short story, which was subsequently sold to several foreign magazines. With two great kids, a golden retriever and a loving, supportive husband (whom I'd met at the beach when I was fourteen -- but that's a story for another day), I felt like I was exactly where I was meant to be in my life. But fate had another plan for me, and it went by the name of "breast cancer."

Looking back, I realize how fortunate I was that the cancer was discovered at such an early stage, but at the time it was all very overwhelming. Once I was back on my feet, I wanted to help other women who were newly diagnosed, worried and afraid. I became a Reach to Recovery volunteer for the American Cancer Society and went on to run the program for Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island. A number of years later, with the help of my surgical oncologist and two other volunteers, I started Lean On Me, a nonprofit organization that provides peer support and information to breast cancer patients. When Lean On Me celebrated its tenth anniversary it no longer required as much of my time, and I once again found myself free to pursue my first love -- writing.

Mystery, Paranormal

 The description drew me in and I was hooked from the first page. Tales of witches, Salem history, a prophecy what more could a reader ask for?

Debra goes to Rachaels Crossing as a teacher and there is only one place left to stay in the small community town , a haunted house. But Debra doesn't believe in such things.

Ethan a man who comes and goes as mysteriously as he, himself is but he is more connected to Rachaels Crossing than Debra realizes.

I had problems staying connected to the story though once I reached the half way point of the story. It was hard for me to continue reading but once I got pass the snag it picked back up and started going the way I thought.

But Debra and Ethan had plans of their own for how they wanted this story to end. It most certainly doesn't end the way the reader thinks it will.

Book Description:“Night Visit” is a brief, haunting tale with a uniquely other-world perspective. Set against the backdrop of an isolated house in the lonely woods, it is an eerie reminder that things are not always what they seem in the world of the living.

My Review:For flash fiction this is a good story. It kept me reading. I wanted to know more though and wish the writer would finish it. It most definitely had a spooky feel to it.

To defeat a dark evil, they must face his family’s past…
Bastian Carlisle, the Earl of Weymouth, doesn’t believe in ghosts. Even though tragedy and mysterious hauntings have driven his family away from his ancestral home, Stormclyffe Hall, he is determined to restore the castle to its former glory. His plans are disrupted when a stubborn American shows up on his doorstep hoping to pry into his family’s tragic history.
Jane Seyton, an American graduate student, is convinced there’s more to the tragedy of Stormclyffe Hall than history claims. Ever the scholar, she is determined to discover the truth, even if it means putting up with the arrogant, yet sexy, Bastian.
Although Bastian wants nothing to do with the pushy American, it soon becomes clear that something evil is in the house—and that something is targeting both Jane and Bastian. The two must join forces to purge the ghosts of Stormclyffe Hall once and for all—even as they try to fight a physical attraction between them that grows more and more impossible to deny.

I was sucked into this dark, brooding, mysterious love affair into another world and time within moments of opening the first page of this book.

 Bastian Carlisle, the Earl of Weymouth, is the last of his line. His family has been cursed by an ancient evil that seeks to destroy all who would call the grounds of Stormclyffe Hall.

Jane Seyton is a woman on a mission to finish her dissertation but once she steps foot on Stormclyffe grounds she finds herself part of something much more dangerous both to her soul and her heart.

Can Bastian and Jane break the curse and live? I was riveted to this Gothic romance from the start. If you are looking for dark, dangerous, mysterious, with a bit of magic thrown in then dive in the pages of both the past and present of Lauren Smith's book. You won't be disappointed. I look forward to reading more of her stories in the future.

By The Light Of The Scottish Moon * Tiffanys Review

Pages: 31

Bryn, the pack leader, is so lost in his own pain he can't see beyond it. Freya is dying & has come home to Scotland.to say goodbye. Her fate lies in his hands - but to save her he must kill her.

Red Phoenix is an award-winning erotica author who gained popularity with her book, Brie Learns the Art of Submission - #1 Best Seller in Erotica. Brie Embraces the Heart of Submission: After Graduation is the second book in the series. She has won 3 reader choice awards at the Indie Romance Convention in 2013 for her various novels and continues to inspire couples with her writing.
Erotica is a delicious fantasy created to entice both the mind and the body ~Red
"I am a happily married woman who believes, based on personal experience, that love conquers all. It is a running theme in my writing. I love romance and I love good sex. It is a healthy combination in real life. My books focus on the love and lust shared by couples."

I was captivated by this story. It is filled with danger, romance, interesting people, secrets and a budding romance. Not to mention full of Scotsmen. What more could a reader ask for?

Bryn is a tortured soul of a man with his humanity barely hanging on. Freya is a woman trying to live her life to the fullest by going home to her birthplace in Scotland. These two meet unexpectedly their lives clashing in ways neither expects. 

 Bryn is the protector of his people, his clansmen. He is harsh and yet can be tender and he shows this where Freya is concerned. Both are drawn to each other in undeniable ways. This historical is filled with just enough flavor to not stop the flow of the story. I loved the fact that Red used Scottish words but made sure the reader could understand what it meant instead of leaving you hanging in the dark.

If you love paranormal, romance, and historical you won't be disappointed in this tale woven by the talented author of Red Phoenix.

I can't wait to read the other stories that are in this box set such as Her Scottish Alpha, Liulf,Highland Wolf, Kiss The Dragon,The Highlander's Mate,Highland Moon Rising,Knights Of Stone, The Zrakon's Curse,To Tame A Highlander,Roots And Fang, Midnight Hunt  these titles alone make me quiver with anticipation.

Lightning Strikes * Diana's Review

Title: Lightning Strikes (An Andromeda Spencer Novel Book 1)

Author: Theresa Parker

Publisher: Theresa Parker

ASIN: B00K032IOS

Pages: 154

 SKUNKS AND BATS AND NARCOLEPTIC CATS, OH MY! 

As if being struck by lightning wasn’t bad enough. I spent a month in a coma. Of course that was when I was a teenager. It left me with some pretty unusual abilities. For instance, I can find just about anything or anyone. Oh, and I can see ghosts, too! 

I pick up extra cash working with the local P.D. I’m their go-to girl when they have someone they need to find. Despite all of this, my life is pretty boring — that is until the very hot Detective Nick Cavanaugh came into my life. Boy did we get off on the wrong foot. I was asked to pair up with Detective Cavanaugh to look for three missing children. Did I mention that he doesn’t believe in my superpowers? 

When we discover the children have been kidnapped, the search takes us up into the mountains and old mining towns. With time running out and my abilities going wonky, Cavanaugh is ready to drop me from the case. Pffft! As if that will stop me!

Caring is sharing - Don't forget to leave her a review!

This debut novel is a funny and fast paced paranormal mystery, which I really enjoyed and read in two sittings. 

Palmer's chatty style of writing is charming and witty and immediately drew me into the story and didn't let go. The main character, Andromeda (Rommey) is feisty and amusing, her descriptions of her family, especially Nanna had me in stiches. In Rommey, she has created an interesting and likeable character, solid enough to gain a loyal following of readers. I do hope this talented writer does work on a series.

The secondary characters were well portrayed especially Detective Cavanaugh. The relationship between him and Rommey was well thought out and I loved the humorous scenes between them. I felt it was Rommey's wonderfully bohemian family that really made the story stand out and brought the story to life.

The plot was entertaining and pace was maintained throughout.

The only criticism I can make is, the suspense could have built up a little stronger, especially when Rommey and Cassie visited the mines alone.

Overall an entertaining read and I'm looking forward to Rommey's next case.

The Dragon Ring * Melody's Review

Title: The Dragon Ring (Neuyokkasinian Arc of Empire Book 1)

Author: C. Craig Coleman

Publisher: C. Craig Coleman

ASIN: B00MRGW1TI

Pages: 373

This coming of age, epic fantasy occurs at the twilight of primal beings and the emergence of man. Wizards, witches, elves, dwarves, trolls, ogres, orcs, dragons, and new fantastic creatures still interact with men in this classic struggle between good and evil. 
The Dragon Ring opens in a politically charged kingdom on the Powterosian continent. The reigning queen has recently ascended the throne at the insistence of the nobility who forced her corrupt brother to abdicate. The former queen, a soulless upstart, ruthlessly schemed to attain power and position. The sudden loss of status has unhinged her. She's resorted to witchcraft to destroy her sister-in-law and the royal family to regain the throne. Caught in the middle are the royal children including young Prince Saxthor, the second son and spare heir. 
The unexpected discovery of Saxthor's unique powers aggravates the political conflict. The witch feels threatened and attempts to kill Saxthor shattering his carefree world. His mentor wizard sends Prince Saxthor racing into exile that he might survive to grow into his mysterious powers. But he’s followed. 
The witch also has a co-conspirator, a ruthless warlock. He’s using her for an end she’s unaware of. The sorcerers draw in the ultimate personification of power, dragons, bending them to good or evil in the conflict for ultimate control. Only Saxthor can alter the looming war’s outcome. 
Can Saxthor survive his pursuers' attacks? Will he overcome his own doubts and rebuild lost confidence? Will his character develop and restore his self-assurance sufficient to face his worst fear? He will need exceptional character to control his unique gifts without succumbing to them. This epic provides fantasy entertainment atop undercurrents of political and psychological depth. 

 I grew up in a small town, Kinston, in Eastern North Carolina in the golden age of youth. I say golden age, because kids dashed out the door on Saturday morning, took to bicycles, and explored the world around them unrestrained only returning home for dinner in the late afternoon. I scampered over fields and swampy low grounds, investigated and collected anything that moved and half the flora I came across. That gave me the knowledge of the natural world that backgrounds my epic.

I studied mythology and developed my own language that has served me through life. My most prized names took form in the characters and places of my books all these decades later.

I went to college at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where I graduated with a BA degree in Ancient and European History. An elective course on castle and cathedral fired up a love of medieval architecture. Little did I know political histories, biographies, art, and architecture would again arise in the fortresses and palaces in my books.

I served my country in the Vietnam War, repairing the display computers on the Air Force's F111 aircraft, though not in Vietnam. Then I audited agriculture courses at NC State University for a year before returning to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and graduating with a MBA, Masters of Business Administration.

A long career in the textile industry working in materials inventory, computer systems development, and finally, manufacturing operations ended abruptly due to a corporate buyout. The imploding industry left little economic opportunity. I found myself looking 'outside the box' for future options. A seed suggestion to write down some of my stories, planted by a doctor of literature in my youth, germinated. I decided to write a fantasy story. I had no inkling it would lead me on the greatest adventure of my life. Though I didn't know the stern mandates of creative writing before I started, I learned backwards by rewriting my epic over the years correcting the point of view, show don't tell, 'ly' adverb, passive voice, etc. issues until at last I have the story down pat.

My greatest supporter and companion through the years of writing this epic was my little silky terrier, Miss Delia. She passed away after sixteen years just prior to my publishing my first of the four books. This epic is dedicated first and foremost to that precious little girl.

  I stepped out of my comfort zone read for this one.  I must admit it took me a bit of time to get into the story, because I don’t read fantasy very often.  The story finally grabbed me after a few chapters and I started to get a grip on the characters and the names.  It’s a wonderfully written story of greed, and heroism. 

C. Craig Coleman wove this wonderful fantasy and the story moves along quickly.  Once engaged in the story it kept me turning pages and holding my breath to read the outcome.  I will probably keep this one on the kindle and reread it on a rainy day.  I look forward to the next book in the series.
