Udderly Fantastic
Some
Were In Time: Shift Happens Book 2
Robyn
Peterman
WTF
agents, wedding dresses, and were cows
Were
cows are more dangerous than were dragons.
Who knew?
I just love the quirky humor and the potty mouth
words that make you wonder if they really count as bad words.
“I’d bet my left
boob, it’s the bigger one, that they
know what happened.”
"It's gonna be a
cluster womper of a bunghole….”
I have previously read book one in this series,
Ready to Were, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Robyn has again hit it out of the park.
This latest episode does not disappoint with action and quirkiness
grabbing you from the first page. I
laughed so hard in places that I had to blink the tears out of my eyes in order
to keep reading.
Of course, there are also great lessons to learn
within the pages. Such as, it is always
polite to wear panties while trying on wedding dresses. Now, that is a great piece of wisdom.
The storyline was unique. I did not have to stop due to editing or
formatting issues. The descriptions were
great. I picked this book up and did not
sit it down until I had finished the entire story.

Jace: Wolves of the Rising Sun
Jace: Wolves of the Rising Sun
Kenzie
Cox
Bayous,
hot men, and Betsy the gator
Ms. Cox does a fabulous job with her descriptions
of not only the people and their actions but of the bayou as well. She brings the bayou and the river to
life. I could feel the dampness in the
air, see the moss hanging from the trees and the subconscious knowledge that
there were creatures out there watching me from their hiding places.
The novella starts off quickly and moves at a fast
pace so the reader is never bored or left wondering where the story was
going. I liked the tattoos, especially
how Skye described what she thought the paw prints represented. This book was just over too quickly. I want to find out more.
The only thing I had an issue with was the
style. Each chapter was written in
either Jace’s or Skye’s voice and I am not a fan of this style as is causes me
a moment of confusion at the beginning of every chapter and I really dislike my
reading flow being stopped.
However, I would not let that stop me from reading
more from Kenzie Cox, as her storyline, characters and her descriptive style
are wonderful. I found no flaws or other
distractions. Truly a master story
teller.

Spirits, Stilettos, and a Silver Bustier
Spirits, Stilettos,
and a Silver Bustier
-Deanna Chase
First off, I love the title and it was what made me decide
to read the book. I have read 1 ½ of the
Jade series which this book is an offshoot of and while those books were well
written they just didn’t snag me and bring me in all of the way. I only bring this up so you can rest assured
that you do not need to have read the other series before reading this
one. I had no issue knowing what was
going on. There are definite hints that
certain characters have a history together but that just made me want to maybe
give the Jade series a second chance.
Pyper sounds similar to myself in her attitude, demeanor and
clothing choices that I wonder if she may be my long lost twin. (lol) I found Julius interesting, but then, who
wouldn’t find a ghost who could also appears human uninteresting.
Did not see the twist
coming. Even though the story was
mostly wrapped up, with only 15% of the book to go, I in no way saw the twist
coming. Love it! Most authors and stories just march on in an
expected order and I usually see twist coming a ways off but not this time. The twist added so much more depth and detail
to the story that I cannot wait to read the next book in the Pyper series.
Deanna Chase is a creative writer who takes the time to form
her characters and their world. You will
not find grammar, sentence, ‘verbiage’ or similar errors within her books. The same can be said with the editing and
formatting for those of you that maybe purchasing this book for your Kindle
(like I did). For me there is nothing
worse than having to stop reading for either a grammar type error or a
formatting error, like giant spaces between words. If this is something that bothers you, too,
then rest assured you will never have this issue with a book by Deanna
Chase. You should also check out her
Jade and her Crescent City Fae series.
