Review: Magick Weaved on a Samhain Eve by V.J Chisholm

Reviewer: Bex
V.J Chisholm's concept for her novella, Magick Weaved on a Samhain Eve, is sexy and pretty sassy. The build up to the action, as it were, is fairly well developed, this is a novella after all. The character Alexia is quickly established and we get a clear sense of her character.

The events move very quickly up the the pinnacle of the novella, and when we get there unfortunately the story is pretty much over. Considering the very sexy nature of this novella - the concept and the build up - what was somewhat frustrating was that V.J Chisholm didn't fully follow through.

The main plot leads us to expect one hot amazing night, yet 'The Night' was lacking. Please do not misunderstand, for a novella of this caliber it's not necessary to heavy and graphic love scenes, yet the characters didn't have enough depth to be able to support itself fully. Plus, considering the descriptive build up in the novella, I was let wanting more.

Magick Weaved on a Samhain Eve has great potential to be so much more; it would make a superb book where the characters could be fully explored and the reader left satisfied, especially because I really liked V.J Chisholm's descriptive narrative. Overall, I enjoyed it, but I did expect so much more.

Review: Embraced (Enduring Kiss #4) - C.E. Black

Embraced by C.E. Black Ann's rating: 5 of 5 stars Read as a standalone. This is a fantastic book. It is an easy read but don’t start reading it too late at night or you will probably end up with a book hangover. It is very difficult to put down. Sean is a lost wolf.

Sarah is a business owner of a bakery called Decadent Delights and her life seems to be going just the way she wants…until she meets Sean at the bar.

He can’t stay because Sarah is human and humans don’t mate with wolves. Two months later, Sarah has a major surprise and goes looking for Sean. And then the fun really begins. This story has sorrow, angst, anger but als...

ARC Review: The Charmed Fates by Christine Wenrick

Tomorrow is the release day of Christine Wenrick's 'The Charmed Fates', the final installment of her amazing trilogy. We'd like to say a HUGE congratulations to Christine on the amazing success of her fabulous trilogy. Reviewer: Em Rating: 5/5 Wow, oh wow!! This book didn’t disappoint me one iota. I opened to the first page to be induced and transported back into the world of Caleb, Olivia, Jax and Gemma. I started to read and couldn’t put the book down. I wasn’t surprised as I had had the same experience with the first two books, the storyline wrapped around me and enfolded me thoroughly taking me on the journey.
