ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 2, 2024

Standing in front of a dragon means dying by fire, but the heart knows there’s more than one way to burn.

Humans and dragons are at war, and I am a pawn in the battle.

Princess of a dying land, my life is not my own, and a marriage to a vicious, dragon-hunting prince will save my people from deadly famine or death by fire.

But before I can vow my life to a monster, dragons drop screaming from the sky with a single aim. End the alliance. Kill me. I welcome the flames, relieved to burn instead of rot.

But the flames never come.

One look in the dragons’ eyes, and they carry me away. Three dragons whose gaze burns with hunger and fills me with fire.

They’re not what we were taught, and every passing day I learn more of the truth. Dragons are not the enemy we thought they were.

Still, one question remains: for centuries no one has stood before a dragon and survived. If these dragons were sent to kill me, why am I still alive?

•••••

REVIEW:Another trilogy by an author who is becoming a one click for me. Why choose and shifters, what more could a reader ask for 😉

Lena is to be married off to a neighbouring kingdom to form an alliance against the dragons! The only good dragon is a 💀 dragon! That’s how she’s been raised! But meeting her future husband has Lena in a panic! He’s not a polite prince that he pretends to be, in fact he’s a villain (and one you don’t want to be redeemed!)

Meeting the trio of dragons, Zovai, Sirius and Endre has Lena rethinking most of the teachings she was brought up with. And even the dragons are baffled with what they know from the elders.

I really liked how we got to read all of the main characters points of view. The plot had me reading until late into the night, in fact I finished the book in one day.

Not happy about the cliffhanger. And that cute baby dragon, Vari (that must have given her a clue that something was amiss?)

So….. wedding day approaches and Lena is lead to the altar. But before the vows are exchanged, the dragons swoop in. Lena realises she’s the target and prepares to meet her fate 💀, but that doesn’t happen….

Zovai, Sirius and Endre have been charged with killing Lena. The elders don’t want the kingdoms banding together, so to show the humans who is boss, the elders decree Lena must 💀!! So what stops that from happening? You’ll need to read the book to find out 😜

Yes, it’s a little predictable. Yes, although trust needs to be earned you know they will all be ok. But with the stories this author writes, it’s not that simple. Miscommunication and betrayal have Lena and the dragons not trusting one another. What are the elders hiding? And are the dragons really the enemy that Lena was led to believe?

There are triggers, and my advice is to visit the website and read them before grabbing this book.

Also be aware there is a huuuuuuuge cliffhanger (that was what i expected) so hoping the next book is out soon, because I need to know what happens next.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 28, 2024

What do you do when your sister’s getting married and your ex is the best man?

Being dumped sucks. Being dumped after four years and getting kicked out of the house? That sucks more.

Sadly, I can’t avoid him forever. Not when he’s the best man in my sister’s wedding. But like hell am I facing him alone.
So how can a painfully single Omega get out of this mess? Not a clue, but I’ll tell you what not to do. Ready?

Don’t hire a pack of male escorts to take you to the wedding. If you do, you can’t sleep with them. No matter how incredible they smell or how well they treat you.

Definitely don’t let them take care of you, and don’t let them show you pleasure you’ve never had before.

And you absolutely cannot, under any circumstances, fall in love with them. They’re not yours.

Because when everything is said and done, this is just pretend… right?

•••••

REVIEW:Yay a new series by one of my favourite Omegaverse writers.

Endless is a tried and tested plot. You know how it’s going to end (fingers crossed) but with this author the ride is never smooth, it’s full of bumps and issues that will need sorting if they all want a HEA.

Isolde is a graphic designer or was! After being “thrown away” but her boyfriend of four years. Isolde is now drifting and doing bar work! But a family wedding is pulling her back home. Her best friend convinces her to “hire” a pack. It will create a barrier between her ex (who is best man!) and any unwanted attention coming home many cause. What Isolde doesn’t count on are the men that pick her up from the airport……

Rowan, Hawk, Vaughn, Cade and Joel are the St. James pack. Hired initially as a fake pack for Isolde. But that goes out of the window once they “smell” her! (I love the idea of knowing your mate by the smell of them) only it’s one sided as Omegas don’t scent match until they hit their heat. So the St. James pack have to suck it up and “pretend” to like their client when in fact they just want to take her back to their home and show her the nest

I liked how each MMC brought something different to the table. It also seemed to blend in and help Isolde with her self doubts. The one thing that did frustrate me a little was her indecisions and doubts! They put the brakes on her being completely in the moment, always worrying what her ex would think! But her ex had moved on rather quickly (hence why she needed the pack for this assignment)

It’s the start of a new series (three I think) so her two best friends will get a book and a pack each ?

It’s not quite a slow burn book, as Isolde decides on changing her mind about the no s€x clause in the contract they all sign. But she is convinced that it’s only for the three weeks she’s here.

Ex Beau is also on the scene, and that makes the packs job harder to show her that they want her for more than the three weeks…. I didn’t like Beau at all and was glad he got all he deserved by the end of the book.

So if you like the Omegaverse then give this book a go.

Now I just have to wait for the next book. Please be soon. ?

Genre: adult, paranormal, fantasy

Three angels. One assassin. She’s fighting for her life, but they’re fighting for her heart.

I was born for two things: To kill, and to be a queen.

Trained as an assassin since birth, I’ve destroyed Hell’s enemies one by one. Now my throne is so close I can taste it.

One more assignment. One more seduction. One trail of broken bodies to lead me to my crown.

Three archangels can’t be that hard to kill, right?

Turns out, I’ve never been more wrong.

And this mistake? It will cost me everything.

••••••

REVIEW:I’ve not read the original version, so I have nothing to compare it with. But I do like the authors other series (based in an Omegaverse)

This is a why choose book and three book series. I’m aware of the cliffhanger, and I know my triggers…..

Queen of Darkness starts at a fast pace and continues at that pace till the cliffhanger ending….

The main character, Arielle has had such a terrible past and her present isn’t all that great either!! She’s been attacked physically and mentally and remodeled into a role that her father wanted her to be…

Arielle is a vessel for the infernal flame which is potentially the next ruler of the underworld! But it’s not an easy throne to obtain, task after task is thrown at Arielle, and she completes each and every one. Arielle doesn’t enjoy her tasks of killing, but the alternative doesn’t bear thinking about!

And now she’s been assigned the job of killing three archangels, she knows she’s good at her job, so she’s confident it won’t be hard…. So technically she’s on the side of evil? She has to kill to survive (does that make her bad?)

Cassian is an archangel, not sure why he’s in hell. And to be honest, he’s not my favourite character, he was hard to get to know. He taught Arielle to fight, he’s trained her hard, but there are feelings between them, both want more, but both understand they can’t have that! Malakai (Kai) Atlas and Solomon are known as the Trinity. And are on the side of good.

I liked the concept of this book. If angels fall they usually have turned evil, but not in this book. The struggle they face makes you want to read more of them and I couldn’t put the book down until I finished it.

Arielle really struggles with choosing the deaths of Solomon/Atlas/Kai or having the thing she most wants. You want her to choose the three archangels, but you’ve also watched her become more, so I wanted her to have both. But how do you choose between something that you have worked towards your entire life and the freedom that you’ve always wanted, or to finally be seen as the person you are and be loved.

What will be the consequences for choosing one over the other?

Highly recommend this book. And now I’m off to find the next book.

Oh…. And the cliffhanger…. That I did not see coming!!! ?

QUEEN OF TORMENT
War of Heavenly Fire 2
by Devyn Sinclair
Re-Release Date: January 1, 2024
Genre: adult, paranormal, fantasy

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

She sacrificed everything to save them. Now they’ll risk it all to save her.

Betrayal has consequences, and the price is my life.

Tortured every day for my betrayal, I’d choose it again if it meant the angels I love are safe. No matter the cost.

I don’t deserve their rescue, but my angels come for me anyway, risking the entire world to save my life.

Even though I’m free, Hell will never stop hunting me, and never stop trying to destroy Heaven. We have to end this.

But ending the war means going back to Hell once again, and this time, I may never come back.

••••••

REVIEW:If you thought the first book was good, then be prepared to be blown away by the next one.

You definitely need to read the first book Queen of Darkness before reading this one….

I’ll try not to give anything away, but this book does carry on from the first. Characters roles are fleshed out and we are given more details about the trinity, Arielle and Cassian.

The action doesn’t stop, and it was hard putting down. There is betrayal/passion and a few twists.

It shows us that good people can do bad things and vice versa. Arielle might have been brought up bad, but that doesn’t mean she wants to continue being bad!

I thought Arielle was a great character, she’s being constantly bombarded and bullied. But she refuses to become the weapon her father wants her to be….

I liked how Solomon/Atlas/Kai sought to forgive her and show her it was ok to want more. They are there for her, and that’s why it’s so hard for her to forgive herself and the actions she chose in the previous book.

I can’t wait to see where the third and final book takes us.

Queen of Annihilation
War of Heavenly Fire 3
by Devyn Sinclair
Re-Release Date: January 1, 2024
Genre: adult, paranormal, fantasy

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

They gave up everything for each other. Now they’ll give up everything to save the world.

I tried to end the war and failed.

Hell has a new queen. One obsessed with ending my life and the lives of my lovers. She will stop at nothing.

My angels and I are on the run, and nowhere is safe to hide. But the fate of the world is in our hands.

We unleashed Hell, and have no other choice but to destroy it.

I am the only one who can.

We have one last chance to defeat our enemies, or face our own annihilation.

••••••

REVIEW: With this being the third and final book in the trilogy, I was keen to see how it would play out. You definitely need to read the books in order before getting to this one.

Nissa (who is Arielle’s sister) now rule’s Hell! How did that happen? (You’ll need to read books one and two) and she’s out to end her sister and the men she’s fallen in love with!

All pieces fall into place and we get answers to questions I had in books one and two. But I did wonder if Arielle could win against her sister ?

The battle for good against evil was really well balanced. But the author never loses sight of the balancing battles with the plot. We get both written really well.

I liked that Arielle doesn’t immediately forgive and forget her past indiscretions, she battles with her conscience throughout the book. And even if the men she is now with have forgiven her, it’s not an easy thing for her to do!

So, the final battle with Nissa. Which way will it go? Will Arielle still choose the right side? Will the Trinity finally bond with her?

I’ve loved all three of these books, but I have to admit this is my favourite.

So if you like your heroine with a battle on her hands and the love of more than one male ? then this trilogy is for you.

A highly recommended read ??

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 26, 2023

Five years ago I found my mate… and he has no idea.

I’ve spent my entire life doing two things: training to be a ballet dancer, and longing for a scent-match. My feet bled for one, and my heart bled for the other.

Then my first heat hit, and my deepest dream became my darkest secret.

I scent-matched with my best friend, and ran.

It’s been five years since I last saw him—happily in someone else’s arms—and I couldn’t bear to break his heart.

But that was before. Before he joined my dance company, anger and grief in his eyes. Before I matched with the rest of his pack, whose scents drive me to the best kind of madness. Before I begged for forgiveness, even if I can never forgive myself.

But the more time I spend with them, the more I see the future I always wanted. A love that sweeps me away, keeps me safe, and never lets me go.

Every day, I fall deeper, and as I do, the more they see the truth: No matter how long it’s been, I never gave up on that dream. Knot for a moment.

•••••

REVIEW:Book three in this series (you don’t need to read the first books to understand and enjoy this one) has a second chance at romance at its core, but also new loves with new alphas. And a catch up with familiar faces. (Which I absolutely loved reading)

Putting her career before her own happiness had been Sloane’s idea. Especially when she found out her best friend was a scent match made in heaven (don’t want to go into details the blurb does that) But now she in close proximity to Ash again, could they have a second chance?

Ash/Gabriel/Roman/Jace are all alphas and all for running away with their Omega, but they need to convince Sloane. She thinks that the past will hold them back, the pack don’t see that.

I loved that the MFC was independent and chose career over love (so many of the Omegaverse and fated mate stories have the FC rolling over and putting her life/dreams on a back burner) but that’s not to say she regretted a few choices over the years, including a bossy and domineering ex boyfriend!

The only thing that I wasn’t keen on, was the fact they moved on from the last too quick (I do like a little angst with second chance romance) and considering it’s a proper book and not a novella, we could have prolonged it a little ?

But it’s still a great read. It still has passion/romance and storylines that will have you reading it in one sitting (real life sucks sometime ?)

So although not my favourite book in this series, I still urge you to grab it (and the other two) and enjoy the Omegaverse at its finest.

Adding this author to my favourite author list now ?

Knot Your Damn Omega
(Slate City Omegaverse)
by Devyn Sinclair
Release Date: September 27, 2022

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

She’s famous, beautiful, and the one Omega whose name everyone knows. She’s my twin sister. Everyone wants her, and no one wants me.

Being the twin of a movie star isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Eva is glamorous and sweet, and everything I’m not. Believe me, every person in my life has made that crystal clear. The press calls me the Ice Queen, leaving pack after pack broken in my wake.

I wish it were true.

All I’ve ever wanted was a pack—to be loved and cherished the way an Omega was meant to be—but now I’ve given up hope. Every group I meet wants a copy of my sister. Let’s not even mention the ones who called me by her name.

That was before I ran into an Alpha whose scent made me climb him like a tree. And his pack, who smells like heaven, makes me perfume, and claims they want to make me theirs. I want to believe love like this exists, yet the past has taught me it’s too good to be true.

I want to be able to tell the world I’m taken. To scream I’m knot your damn Omega… I’m theirs. But first, I have to believe it myself.

Knot Your Damn Omega is a standalone reverse harem Omegaverse. No choosing, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA! This book is part of a series of standalones, and can be enjoyed on its own, without reading any other books in the series. Content Warnings available on the author’s website.

••••••••

REVIEW: Reading a few Omegaverse books recently, and I have to say that I throughly enjoyed meeting Esme and the her pack.

Poor Esme is sick and tired of being second best to her twin! They might look alike, but that’s where the resemblance ends! And if she does meet someone, then they want a lookalike not the second best! She’s tired of being paraded around, tired of her mother looking at her as if it’s her fault the pack doesn’t want her!

The chemistry between Bennett and Esme was off the wall, but she’s scared! No one has ever wanted her! She doesn’t believe she deserves a pack of her own, she believes she’s just not good enough!

Meeting Bennett/Luke/Rylan/Kade/Avery will change Esme’s life, that is if she gets enough confidence to take a chance…. Bennett is an alpha through and through, a talented tattoo artist and owner of the tattoo studio. Luke is also a tattoo artist and Alpha, he’s the oldest in the pack. Rylan is the only Beta in the pack, he is the peacemaker. Kade is also a tattooist, and the guy you make an appointment if you need a piercing, an alpha from top to bottom. And finally Avery a teddy bear of an Alpha, who can’t wait like the rest of his pack to court and claim this lovely but skittish Omega.

I enjoyed the pace, the story, the characters and all the emotions that went with this story. (Although Esme constantly doubting the packs feelings for her did get a little wearing!) I liked how the pack constantly looked after and reassured her ?? it’s also the pack focus on her, there is no MM action.

A highly recommended read. And I’m looking forward to reading the next book. Another new author that’s going to be one on my reading list.

Knot All That Glitters
(Slate City Omegaverse)
by Devyn Sinclair
Release Date:March 30, 2023

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: All she ever wanted was a quiet life doing what she loved. Her family had other plans.

Being the Omega daughter of Slate City’s favorite politician is exhausting. Everyone in our family is perfect. Good jobs, good images, no scandals, and smiling at all times. That’s not me, and it never will be.

No matter how hard I try.

All I’ve ever wanted was a simpler life—to choose what I want to do, have a pack who loves me, and be happy—but that’s not an option. My entire life is already planned out for me. Every step carefully curated to make sure my family stays at the top, in the spotlight, and in power. Of course, I will be their dutiful Omega daughter.

That was before I got trapped in a closet with an Alpha whose scent made me want to misbehave. And before I found out that he’s my new bodyguard. His pack smells like paradise, drowns me with passion, and doesn’t care about my family’s plans. They only want me.

From the outside my life seems perfect, but I know better than anyone that knot all that glitters is gold. I want to break out of the cage I’m in, and I want these men to help me do it. But when you’re on a pedestal to the entire world… there’s a very long way to fall.

Knot All That Glitters is a standalone reverse harem Omegaverse. No choosing, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA! This book is part of a series of standalones, and can be enjoyed on its own, without reading any other books in the series. Content Warnings available on the author’s website.

••••••••

REVIEW: Knot All That Glitters, is part of the Slate City Omegaverse Series by Devyn Sinclair, and is the second story in this universe.

Petra has to be seen doing the right thing, not allowed to tarnish the family name! Being in the public eye is nothing but a chore for her.

And allowing her stepmother to dictate to her so it keeps the peace is all part of Petra’s every day life! She’s an Omega, so in this universe Omegas are shy and protected. Protected, yes. Shy, oh hell no! Petra doesn’t conform to the stereotype of a shy Omega.

Whilst interviewing a pack, Petra catches a scent that she has to immediately investigate, and what she finds surprises and delights her…..

Cole and Harrison are bodyguards, they are good at their job. Emery is a vet for exotic animals and his job keeps him busy. And Blake, chef extraordinaire and restauranteur completes the pack. And unlike the the last book, they are all Alphas. They’d stopped looking for an Omega after several failed attempts, and now they know why, they’d been waiting for Petra.

Instant attraction for both parties, and then throw in Cole/Harrison/Emery and Blake, well you can guess the rest ?

I have to admit I didn’t like it as much as the first book (Knot Your Damn Omega) but it’s still a great book. I loved the interaction between Petra and her pack. I also liked the idea of knowing your mate by scent.

I liked that the pack being interviewed helped run interference and helped her along the way.

Wasn’t too keen on the stepmother, she really wasn’t a nice person! And best friend Sloane, she was sassy and a fun character.

But it’s not all plain sailing for Petra and her men! No, we have a stalker to contend with and death threats! And when we find out who, and I admit I was a little surprised.

We get to catch up with a character or two from the previous (which always a favourite of mine) book.

This book has no problem standing on its own in the series, there is no need to read the first. But after reading this (if you haven’t read the first book) I can almost guarantee you’ll go back and read the first one.

A recommended read from me. And now I’m off to find book three.
