Oceans of Red Volume Three- Demon Apocalypse by Willow Cross Bex's rating: 5 of 5 Fairies   Remy totally won me over in Willow Cross's latest installment of Oceans of Red. Part one was fabulous - 5 stars, book two was a solid 4, but by far book three is my favourite to date. I love the way Remy's character is developing and advancing. She seems finally at grips with her mission and new powers so much so that she is easy admire and follow. Willow Cross has truly mastered this installment. She successfully weaved and developed both the plot and the characters in such a way that leaves so much possibility for this series. I have so many predictions running around in my head. I just hope that with some of them I am wrong. The inclusion of Ryan is fabulous. I really enjoyed his down to earth character and his no-nonsense attitude. The dynamics between Remy and him are superb to read. I laughed out loud at their very 'normal' antics and often found myself w...

So very excited - again - this time because the fabulous Willow Cross has only gone and had the covers for Oceans of Red Volumes One & Two redesigned. She never stops that woman! Seriously! So be prepared to jump up and down and squeal just a little or a lot if you prefer and check out these stunning covers! Oceans of Red Vol One This is an amazing novella, filled with action, kick-ass characters and a fantastic level of intrigue.  I was immediately drawn to the main characters. I loved their attitudes, their dedication to their mission and their relationships. Remy’s character especially was easy to follow; she’s a really likeable strong character, who is easily comparable to the many strong paranormal heroines in the genre. The storyline concept is clever and is extremely well crafted and developed. I’ve read a lot of demon based stories lately, and this is so very different, so very clever. What’s more, I can’t believe it’s still FREE! After read...

I am so pleased that I took the time out to read Willow Cross's Ghost Diaries (#1).   Willow Cross's writing style is so beautifully crafted and appropriate in this story. It was refreshing to read a collection of well-constructed and eloquently described diary entries that were written in the ...

Goodreads Synopsis When a recently deceased ghost teams up with a vampire who has remained 17 for nearly 200 years, hilarity and chaos ensues. The day William met Angie, encountering the girl of his dreams was the last thing on his mind. But after a chance meeting in the woods, she seemed to be the only thing he thought about. If he'd known in the beginning that her beauty masked a darker secret and a penchant for finding trouble that was second to none, he might have chosen a different path in the Afterlife. From the first page of ‘Afterlife’, I laughed out loud “...Balls!...”. This immediately impressed me and gave me that warm fuzzy feeling; the one that tells me that I won’t be disappointed. And hurray, I wasn’t in the slightest. ‘Afterlife’ is a ‘Dark Gifts Series Companion’ short. And as such, it lays out the background and history of a few of the characters that we meet in the novels ‘Birthright’ and ‘Inheritance’ (the latter of which I’m yet to r...
