Early Review: Green Eyed Demon by Jaye Wells

Green Eyed Demon
Author:Jaye Wells
Release Date: March 1, 2011
Publisher: Orbit
Sabina Kane Book #3
ISBN:   031603777X
ISBN13: 9780316037778
Genre: Urban Fantasy
Review Copy Source: Netgalley.com


The clock is ticking for Sabina Kane. Her sister has been kidnapped by her grandmother, the Dark Races are on the brink of war, and a mysterious order is manipulating everyone behind the scenes.

Working on information provided by an unlikely ally, Sabina and her trusty sidekicks–a sexy mage named Adam Lazarus and Giguhl, a Mischief demon–head to New Orleans to begin the hunt for her sister. Once there, they must contend with belligerent werewolves, magic-wielding vampires and–perhaps most frightening of all–humans.
But as much as Sabina is focused on surviving the present, the past won’t be ignored. Before she can save those she cares about most, she must save herself from the ghosts of her past.

I dont know why but snarky characters always make me love a book more. Sabina continues her kick butt adventures in book 3 GREEN EYED DEMON. The pace is fast and action packed from the beginning of the book. Adam and Sabina are a great couple in my opinion, I love how she opens herself up finally. New Orleans is always a fun city to read about and the extra supernatural flair Wells adds makes it that much better. I am excited to see what some of the new characters we met will bring to future books.  Action, suspense, romance, and tough life changing choices helps make this book a must read. I dont know what the future will bring for Sabina but I'm staying on the ride to find out.

I gave it 5/5 stars

Review: Blood Wyne by Yasmine Galenorn

Blood Wyne
Author:Yasmine Galenorn
Release Date: February 1, 2011
Publisher: Berkley
Sisters of the Moon Book #9
ISBN:  0425239748
ISBN13: 9780425239742
Genre: Urban Fantasy


We're the D'Artigo sisters: half-human, half-Fae, we're sexy, we're savvy and we just turned in our badges to the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. My sister Camille is a wicked good witch. Delilah's a werecat and blossoming Death Maiden. And as for me? I'm Menolly, acrobat extraordinaire turned vampire. But being a vamp isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially when the Godfather of all vampires decides to play Prince Charming...

It's the holiday season and a vampire serial killer is on the loose. Hungry ghosts are tearing up the town and people are running scared. I strike a deal with Ivana Krask--one of the Elder Fae--and too late, discover strings are attached. But when I turn to Roman, one of the oldest, most powerful vampires around, for help, he offers me more than I ever bargained for.

This is now my favorite Menolly Book. She has grown so much throughout the series. She has had to move on from a horrific past and it is so nice to see her open herself up a little and watch her change. There is a decent amount of action in BLOOD WYNE as well as some sexy scenes. Lots of things happen in BLOOD WYNE that I think are going to shake up all the sisters lives and affect future books. A new character that is introduced is definitely going to shake up Menolly's life and I cant wait to read about it.There hasn't been one book of Ms Galenorn's that I haven't enjoyed reading so far so I would defiantly recommend you pick up one of her series.

I gave it 4/5 Stars

Review: First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones

First Grave on the Right
Author:Darynda Jones
Release Date: February 1, 2011
Publisher: St. Martins Press
Charley Davidson Book #1
ISBN:  0312662750
ISBN13: 9780312662752
Genre: Paranormal Romance

A smashing, award-winning debut novel that introduces Charley Davidson: part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper.

Charley sees dead people. That’s right, she sees dead people. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light.” But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e. murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice. Complicating matters are the intensely hot dreams she’s been having about an Entity who has been following her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he might be something else entirely.

This is a thrilling debut novel from an exciting newcomer to the world of paranormal romantic suspense.


You need to pick up your own copy of FIRST GRAVE ON THE RIGHT it was phenomenal. It has about everything you could ask for Mystery, suspense, action, romance, HUMOR OMG you will laugh your behind off, I dont think I went a few pages without laughing in the entire book. Charley's Personality ROCKS she is Witty, sassy, sarcastic, and determined with horrible luck but I absolutely want her to be my BFF. Reyes is dark, mysterious and sexy as can be. He has many secrets and it was fun to be a witness to Charley peeling back some of the layers of him. I can not wait to get my hands on SECOND GRAVE ON THE LEFT it cant come out soon enough for me.

I gave it 5/5 Stars
