Reviews!

To any authors/publishers/ tour companies that are looking for the reviews that I signed up for please know this is very hard to do. I will be stopping reviews temporarily. My husband passed away February 1st and my new normal is a bit scary right now and I am unable to concentrate on a book to do justice to the book and authors. I will still do spotlight posts if you wish it is just the reviews at this time. I apologize for this, but it isn't fair to you if I signed up to do a review and haven't been able to because I can't concentrate on any books. Thank you for your understanding during this difficult time. I appreciate all of you. Kathleen Kelly April 2nd 2024

in a favor and the ceremony takes a hit.
Jasmine voices her concerns over the request but accepts her mate’s explanation and the
ceremony continues. Midway through the celebration, Silas discovers he has been duped and
now has to deal with the Joint Chiefs, the President and worst… an angry mate.
As Jasmine comes to grips with just how powerful her mate is, he also realizes that she is just as
gifted and that it will take both of them working in harmony to rule their nation in BirthSign.
This is the sixth book in the La Patron series. Jasmine and Silas have persevered through so
much and their love shines brighter than ever. Although this is book six, hold on, because the
next book opens with Asia and her special connection to Jasmine. The story will continue…




Sydney Addae, a self-proclaimed readaholic and lover of most things paranomal, as long as it has a HEA. I enjoy people watching and traveling when I am not researching old tales to incorporate into my stories.
I live in the southeast and enjoy reading and writing all things paranormal. Nothing is more relaxing than cracking open a new adventure in a new world.
I love paranormal tales and characters in general and shifter stories in particular. Throw in the romantic element, strong Alpha characters who bend beneath the power of love and I’m over the moon. Sighs…

Romance Between the Pages Podcast!


Ever wondered about the personalities behind your favorite books? Victoria Danann's new podcast with Riley J. Ford has an incredible lineup of authors booked through the spring. No question is out of bounds. Check it out!

THIS WEEK'S BEST SELLING AUTHOR...
KATY REGNERY!

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Katy Regnery started her writing career by enrolling in a short story class in January 2012. One year later, she signed her first contract and Katy’s first novel was published in September 2013.

Twenty-five books later, Katy claims authorship of the multi-titled, New York Times and USA Today Blueberry Lane Series, which follows the English, Winslow, Rousseau, Story, and Ambler families of Philadelphia; the six-book, bestselling ~a modern fairytale~ series; and several other standalone novels and novellas.

Katy’s first modern fairytale romance, The Vixen and the Vet, was nominated for a RITA® in 2015 and won the 2015 Kindle Book Award for romance. Katy’s boxed set, The English Brothers Boxed Set, Books #1–4, hit the USA Today bestseller list in 2015, and her Christmas story, Marrying Mr. English, appeared on the list a week later. In May 2016, Katy’s Blueberry Lane collection, The Winslow Brothers Boxed Set, Books #1-4, became a New York Times E-book bestseller.

In 2016, Katy signed a print-only agreement with Spencerhill Press. As a result, her Blueberry Lane paperback books will now be distributed to brick and mortar bookstores all over the United States.

Katy lives in the relative wilds of northern Fairfield County, Connecticut, where her writing room looks out at the woods, and her husband, two young children, two dogs, and one Blue Tonkinese kitten create just enough cheerful chaos to remind her that the very best love stories begin at home.

Snippet #1:
"Victoria." A deep male voice made me look up to find a familiar face grinning back at me.  
I knew him from Facebook, not because I'd ever talked to him but because he had been on many book covers from well known authors and OK, he was even hotter in person. Oh mama!
"Do I know you?" I asked calmly – while I fan-girled inside - because he hadn't introduced himself and I didn't want to assume he didn't need to regardless of who he was. He didn't know me.
He cocked his head to the side and looked down at me, "Sure I do, you wrote that story about the biker girl who's a vigilante by night and what did she do by day?" He arched an eyebrow.
I looked into his dark eyes, "She was an FBI agent by day."  
"Anyway, the book cover art for that book is awesome." He eyes me as I stand there unsure of why he's talking to me.
I smiled kindly, "Thank you, it was just a stock photo image and I just used Photoshop, no biggie."  
His eyes widen, "Wow, pretty and talented."
I'm sure he could tell I was blushing and on top of that, I laughed nervously, "Thanks, looks like they're getting ready to take the group photo." I said as I turned to leave when he just looked at me amused.
"Hey Victoria," His hand is on my shoulder and a spark of something runs through my body.
What the hell was that?
"You forgot this." He hands me back the lanyard that I somehow left behind." His hand is still resting on my shoulder as I take it from him and his fingers brush against mine.
I acted as cool as I could but I probably failed, "Thank you Shane." His name left my lips before I had a chance to think about it.
"You're welcome Victoria." He replied with emphasis on my name.
I could still feel his eyes on me as I leave my cup on my table and make way to take the group photo.

Snippet #2:
Finally I checked my phone as I walked out of the room and went through a few emails, messages and last but not least, the snap that Axel had sent me earlier.  
"I want you." I stopped dead in my tracks as I re-read the message over and over again.
He wants me.
OK, he'd never said that before. In fact, we'd kept the sexy talk about our bodies not about us actually meeting up and doing anything. I know that's not what he said but it was implied.
"I want you too." I replied back because two could play that game. Honestly, I thought he was just playing with me or messing with my head because he'd never committed to meeting me at a book signing. So could I really believe he would actually meet up with me for date or even just sex?
I walked towards the elevators and as I did, I got another snap from Axel.
"Soon." It was all he said.
I didn't reply back.
Snippet #3:
"Wow." A voice that wasn't Shane's or mine said.  
We barely paused looking over in a haze of lust and desire, my eyes widened but I had lost control of my body and only felt what Shane was doing to me.  
Axel stood by the door to the balcony staring at us but mostly his eyes stripped me bare, as if Shane hadn't just removed my clothes.
"Are you just going to stand there or are you going to join us?" Shane snapped at him and before I could object or push him away, his mouth was on mine hungrier than before.

Dark Warrior By Denna Holm Book Blitz!

Dark Warrior
By Denna Holm
Blurb:
Jada is an avid bow hunter out on vacation during elk season with three of her friends when they are viciously attacked by strangers. One of her friends is killed outright and two others are taken captive. She wants to be with them, fight beside them, but another stranger arrives and pulls her aside, blocking her path back to camp as she listens to her three friends scream.
Bryce is a tracker of rogues for the Laizahlian Council. He has worked for the Hunter Vaughn for almost three hundred years, having long given up hope of ever finding his destined mate. To his horror, when he finally finds her, it's to learn Jada is a human female from Earth. He barely arrives in time to save her from the two rogues he and his partner have been hunting these past three days. There is nothing he can do to save her three friends and he knows Jada will hate him for it. With his partner seriously wounded, Bryce must convince Jada her only hope for survival is to stay with him. Not an easy task when he admits to being a werewolf from another world.
But Bryce knows that rogue werewolves are not the only danger his new mate must face. The greatest threat will come from Vaughn himself, a powerful vampire. It is forbidden by the Council for their kind to take a human mate. If Bryce can't convince Vaughn that Jada is a born shapeshifter, his partner will likely try to kill her. He can't allow this, even if it means he must go rogue himself in order to protect her.
