A lethal sword.
A dangerous mission.
A seventeen-year-old girl finding her way in a world that is nothing like she remembered.
When Maylin Kavanagh’s parents surrendered her to The Program, they swore it was for her protection. After being confined in a small underground cell for nearly two years, she is finally released.
But the world has changed.
Most of the populace has been wiped out by a deadly disease, and the rules of society have regressed. But that’s not the worst of it. When her group is kidnapped by a band of rogue vampires, Maylin realizes the decline of the human population has brought other races to the forefront—races she never knew existed. And now they’re all battling for survival and power.
In his father’s absence, Thane Warwick must lead his people. He has two priorities: find his father and find humans who can supply blood to his tribe. Immediately intrigued by his latest captive, he becomes interested in Maylin for more than just her blood, but he soon discovers that he must make a choice between his father and her.
Despite their attraction, Maylin and Thane each have an agenda, and only one can be the victor.
VAMPIRE’S BANE is a mature young adult paranormal fantasy/romance/action & adventure/post-apocalyptic story.



Wow, I enjoyed this book more then I thought that I would. it doesn't help that I didn't read the description to what the book was about so I pretty much when in blindly. I'm so glad it turned out to be a great story and not a dud because I tend to find more duds when I go in without reading more about it. I found the  story line was interesting and unique. Oh and that ending wow, I wasn't expecting it. Its not a cliff hanger but you'll defiantly want to see more of whats in store for these characters. I loved that there was a dual point of view between the two characters. I'm kind of curious on whose perspective well get in the next book. I loved that there was twists and turns throughout the book keeping things interesting. Overall this was a great book.

 Casey Williams and her family are poor. Her parents work non-stop and so does she, just so they can keep the trailer roof from leaking.
They’re getting by fine enough when the headaches start. Then there’s the nosebleeds. And the inevitable doctor’s bills.
Fortunately for Casey, there’s MyTrueMatch.com: an exclusive, quick, and almost easy way to pay it all back before her parents even have to know.
All she has to do is give a man she’s never met whatever he wants from her body.
Inside or out.

When I first came across this book I wasn't sure what to expect, I chose this book based off its cover and interesting title. While reading I found myself hooked. I just couldn't put it down. This is supposed to be 3 part but I don't get why I don't think this book would've been that great if it was separated. The storyline was interesting and unique which was a plus for this book. I like that there was a back and fourth with the time but then again found myself confused with the back and fourth. It kind of jumps back and fourth randomly. I was hoping for more in the book when it came to the ending, it just kind of suddenly stopped. I guess it was because I was hoping for a different type of ending. Overall I did enjoy this book I would rate this a 4 of 5 stars.

Review : Heart bitten

Heart bitten by Aubrey Rose

Genre: Contemporary, Romance, Paranormal, Vampires
Kindle Edition, 212 pages
Published March 12th 2014
Goodreads : Click

                 Amazon

Billionaire playboy Robert Chatham is as bloodthirsty as it gets. Snarky and self-obsessed, he has a new girl every day of the week. What the London tabloids don’t know is the reason Robb acts like a lady-killer: to avoid having to kill them. A four-hundred year old vampire, he feeds and moves on, never getting attached to any girl.

Until Liz.

A shy American transplant in the heart of London, Liz is slaving away on her grad school project: working to find a cure for the blood cancer that her younger sister died from years ago. Dead focused on her studies, she’s more interested in the chemistry of hemoglobin than in the chemistry between her and any guy.

Until Robb.

After an old vampire friend comes asking for a favor, Robb has to choose between repaying a life debt and chasing after the one girl who’s broken through his emotional walls. And when Liz stumbles upon evidence that seems to solve the puzzle of his mysterious seclusion, she confronts him in his lab. Only the dark secret she thought she had uncovered turns out to be something even more terrifying.

With a dead body in the trunk of his Porsche and a vial of cancerous blood in the pocket of her lab coat, Robb and Liz are heading for a collision course that will change both of their lives forever…

My Thoughts:

This was a pretty good story I was able to read in a short amount of time. My only problem was that I was hoping for a bit more. I was hoping that there would be a cure she would've found out something. I was hoping for a bit more conflict. Oh and another thing I was a bit surprised that Liz wasn't traumatized at what happened towards the end. I liked the characters and liked that I got the point of view of both characters. I hope there will be another book on their relationship so I can seen deeper into their lives and relationship.

Review : Infinity Unleashed

Infinity Unleashed by Sedona Venez

(Valkyries: Soaring Raven #2)
Genre : New Adult, Romance, Paranomal, Shapeshifters, Vampires, Fantasy
Published December 10th 2013 by One Wish Publishing
Pages: 254
GoodreadsGoodreads

                Amazon
A new adult story of Betrayal. Sex. Addiction. Love. And Power...

Mason's diabolical plan had actually worked.

In a matter of minutes he had kidnapped me, stripping me of everything...money, family, and freedom. It was humbling, depressing, and damn infuriating but I refuse to go down without a fight. I refuse to be defeated.

Boulder will find me. I didn't know how, but I felt it deep in my soul.

Boulder...the one man that made my body quake with just one look. It was madness. There was so much I didn't know about him. For that matter, there was so much that he didn't know about me…like the evil darkness lurking inside me, waiting to be unleashed.

Could he accept me without judging?

That's where most men failed. Accepting the real me. But after years of hardening my heart, and sealing it behind a steel cage, I was ready to give myself to him freely. Knowing, that he planned to take everything I offered with both hands, until all I thought of...and wanted...was him…

*** This is a new adult paranormal novel and contains sexual content and graphic language. It is not intended for young adult readers. ***

My Thoughts:

Infinity has been kidnapped and drugged by Mason. Mason believes that he and Infinity are true mates and when the full moon comes up he plans to mate her and get control over her powers. Meanwhile Boulder and the rest are trying to find her. When Infinity comes to her senses and realizes that Mason has been drugging her she stops taking what they are giving her. Shes becoming more clearheaded and realizes that there are gaps in her memory and works hard to get it back. Just walking out of where Mason put her is not an option so until she finder her way out she begins to learn more about herself and her role.

I thought this book was pretty good. It was unique and I haven't really come across a new adult book that have paranormal. What I didn't like was that everyone seemed to want Infinity. The story line is interesting and I loved that there was more then one point of view. My only problem was that it seems as if every person wanted her as a mate to get ownership over her power and it was rather annoying that everyone wanted just her. When I read books with a love triangle is okay but this book book is more like 3 or 4 guys like her and its too much. I loved the attraction between Boulder and Infinity. Overall I really enjoyed this book. Oh and as a warning this book does have a cliffhanger.
