Deity’s Soulmate: 2nd Edition

Hi everyone,

I have decided to release a second edition of Deity’s Soulmate. I am hoping to publish it in December and will be looking for beta readers in about 3 weeks. If anyone is interested in being a beta reader, please let me know. The more the merrier.

When I published the first edition, I was just starting out and didn’t have any tips so I didn’t even know there was such a thing as beta readers! I am sad to report that I didn’t do enough research, but hey, I had to start somewhere and due to that experience, I can actually say that I learned something and can share my new found wisdom.

I want to release edition 2 because of the feedback that I have received from reviewers and friends. So the second edition will have hopefully flawless English, will have more spicy parts because apparently, I had some boring parts in there, and easier transitions because this book does not happen in one days time or a weeks time but the events happens over years. Goddesses have long lives and so do dragons.

Also, I’m thinking the blurb will be different… need help with creating a new one so hopefully my beta readers can help me out with that.

^_^

This is a stand alone romance novel about a billionaire and a girl that was trying to find herself in New York. It was my first time reading about a billionaire novel and I have to say that it was well written. It held real emotions, realistic events, and misunderstandings that made sense. This novel is for 21 years of age and older. I liked the pace, the passion, and the characters. Well done. I have also already recommended it to my best friend who loves books like this one.

At the end of the novel, there are 5 extra books for your enjoyment.

Book Review: Releasing her Dragon

Book Title: Releasing her Dragondragon

Book Author: Elianne Adams

Rating: 5 Dragon Paws 5 paws

Finding a mate is important and her mate kept running until he heard her song where she sang of releasing him. It’s a fast paced short read and I found this novel listed on the Back List category on Goodreads. I find soul mates and mates interesting so I figured, why not? It has romance (for 21 and older), soul mates and most importantly is that the soul mates are dragons. If you’re looking for an erotic short read that involves dragons, I would recommend you read it. The ending is sweet and made me smile. Good for Stella.

Also I like the cover. ^_^

Oh and I believe the author’s point was to make it a short read, though I believe it would have been a better read if there was mote chase in the beginning, background stories on the lovers, and more about Brysen’s job.

 

Book Review: The Lucky Leprechaun

“Proceeds from the sale of this book and others in the series go to animal welfare shelters so that all pets have a warm bed, plenty of food and lots of cuddles.” – Susan Day

If there is any time to spend money on books, it’s when proceeds go to a good cause so go and buy it! Available on Amazon.

This is story 12 of the series and you do not need to read the other books to enjoy the story about dogs, cats, leprechauns, elves, fairies, fish, buses, red beards, and more. It was interesting to read about how their doggy adventure started and what they had to do to become successful. It’s an easy and fast read and I believe children would love it. My favorite characters are Stella and Astro. I also love how the author based the characters on real animals, made it more meaningful.

There’s not really anything more to add, it’s a good and fun read and you won’t be sorry.

 

Recommend for all ages.

Book Review: Droplets (Droplets Trilogy #1)

This is my second time reading about mermaids and the secrets of the deep. This is a story about Lissie, who was forced to become a mermaid by an evil merman leader who wants ultimate power over humans and merfolk. The only that keeps Lissie from going insane is the good side and Patrick, her true love.

It is well written, interesting, and has great descriptions. I applaud Meghan for her great work. Though the beginning was really sad about Hector and there were some scary scenes throughout, it was all done in a nice pace and wonder. It does end on a cliffhanger and it would be interesting to read book 2 to see how Lissie would learn the skills of a mermaid. Oh, and I was impressed with Patrick’s skills, he really didn’t waste his 700 years of being alive.

Recommend for eighteen and over.

Book Review: Murder on the Menu (Nikki Hunter #1)

Book Title:Murder on the Menu (Nikki Hunter #1) sleuth

This is a story about a dog named D’Artagnon who is truly a girl’s best friend and a fierce protector. Okay, it’s not really about the awesome dog, but I really loved seeing a dog save the day. This novel is about a PI, Nikki, who got hired to investigate a girl’s death. Also, it was her first murder case so it was no surprise when she was feeling ‘human.’

It was a real treat to read this. This is book 1 out of 6, very well written, enough details, and one can tell that the author really knows what she wrote about. A fast and entertaining read, easy to connect with the characters and there were a ton of possibilities on who was the murderer. I admit that I was wrong on my assumption on who it was and it mainly was due to Elizabeth, Nikki’s best friend.

I recommend this to eighteen and over.

Book Review: Even Witches Get the Blues (Wicked in Moonhaven #1)

Book Title: Even Witches Get the Blues (Wicked in Moonhaven #1) blues

Book Author: J. D. Winters

Rating: 4 Dragon Paws 4

This is a fun story about a girl, Haley, who wakes up with no memories, so it’s a big surprise when she learns that she has a deed to a restaurant in town 40 miles away, everyone knows her in that town, and that she’s a witch!

It’s a down to earth kind of novel that is interesting an yet straight to the point. I really liked J. D.’s writing and would maybe read the next books, depending. It was difficult to understand at times, especially about how demons worked. Though with the ending, I understand the reasons behind Haley’s mind connection with the hot vampire in town. At least, I have an idea.

Recommended to 16 of age and older, who like cozy mysteries and witches.
