I Missed a Special Surprise Release!

 
While on my extended vacation, I missed a surprise release by author Alyssa Rose Ivy… a new addition to her Chronicles! HUNT is the first book in The Grizzly Chronicles. You should check it out, all of the other Chronicles too. (Start with The Crescent Chronicles).





 
There's a new Alpha in town and he just found his mate, she just doesn't know it yet.
 
Welcome to Crestview, Montana. Population ~1000 and not all of those are human. After his brother is murdered, Ian must step up to become Alpha of his bear shifter pack. At the same time law student Mara shows up in town, and Ian knows she’s destined to be his mate. When a rival pack lays claim to Mara, Ian and his brothers will stop at nothing to protect her.

Now in My Bookbag: Hostile, (Book #4 of The Afterlight Saga), by Cameo Renae

Before the After Light Saga, I never even considered reading dystopian literature. Thankfully, I was already a fan of author Cameo Renae’s work. Therefore, I decided to give the After Light Saga a try. Now, I can honestly say I am a true fan.

Cameo has such an excellent way of weaving a story full of excitement and danger, while still creating complex characters that steal my heart. Abi is such a strong heroine, badass to the core. She is also one half of a soul. The other half is Finn, (who I secretly love).

I truly understand Abi’s rationale for her heartbreaking decisions, but her path leaves me sad, much the way that she herself feels. This author crafts Abi’s solo journey as a dangerous adventure of self-discovery. It tests her humanity, resourcefulness, and her ability to draw people to her. She also proves herself when the stakes are the highest.

I truly love this book and this series. There are a couple of grammatical errors, but they really don’t detract from my reading enjoyment. I recommend this series to anyone who likes dystopian/post-apocalyptic literature. Also, it should appeal to those who like a little suspense with loveable characters.

4 3/4 stars

Now in My Bookbag: Emmitt's Treasure (a Companion Novel to the Judgement of the Six Series), by Melissa Haag

How does author Melissa Haag enhance her incomparable Judgement of the Six Series? She writes a companion series told from the men’s POVs.

Just as Clay’s Hope adds extraordinary new layers to Hope(less), Emmitt’s Treasure adds so much more to (Mis)Fortune. Getting inside Emmitt’s head creates a complete understanding of his relationship with Michelle. Her story alone simply can not convey the depth of feeling in his connection to her.

Emmitt is completely swoon worthy. He is sweet, caring, and very protective, (also a veteran). He loves Michelle, and accepts her little brothers as his own. Haag also provides a wonderful view of the relationship between Emmitt and his hilarious brother, Jim.
This book is an enjoyable read, and I recommend it. 4 1/2 stars
Purchase Emmitt’s Treasure at Amazon.com
