Book Reviews - Forbidden by Jacquelyn Frank & Hush by Cherry Adair

Forbidden (The World of Nightwalkers, #1)Forbidden by Jacquelyn Frank
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love the Nightwalker world and Jacquelyn Frank doesn't disapoint with this new series. The author goes back to the world of the Nightwalkers and shows us a brand new breed - Bodywalkers. These are spirits of past people who co-inhabit the body of a mortal. They are fighting a civil war that has gone on for thousands of years. Here we encounter Docia, who is unassuming but has a wild streak in her. She gets offered the chance to become a Bodywalker after an accident (well not an accident :P) She meets up with Ram and then the story gets going. I highly enjoyed this new series and can't wait to continue reading when the next book comes out.

  Hush (Lodestone Trilogy, #1)Hush by Cherry Adair
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I enjoyed reading this story. The characters are thrill seeking brothers who get caught up in a kidnapping with an innocent woman. They have to escape while wounded and in hostile territory. I loved Acadia Grey, she had such guff to her that she matched the Stark brothers well. A good storyline, with an end that you don't see very often.

Romance Books Part 2


 PARANORMAL:

"Sincetime began, there have been Nightwalkers - the races of the night who live in the shadows of the moonlight. Love with humans is absolutely forbidden. Jacob knows the excuses his people give when the madness overtakes them and they fall prey to their lust for humans. He's heard every one and still brought the trespassers to justice. Immune to forbidden desires, uncontrollable hungers, or the curse of the moon, his control is total...until the moment he sees Isabella on a shadowy New York City street. Saving her life wasn't in his plans. Nor were the overwhelming feelings she arouses in him. But the moment he holds her in his arms and feels the soft explosion of her body against his, everything changes. Their attraction is undeniable, volatile, and completely against the law. Suddenly everything Jacob has ever believed is inflamed by the heat of desire...

 After a chaotic marriage and a rough divorce, all Mira Hoskins wants is stability and normality. But when sexy Jack McAllister enters her life, she discovers that what you want isn't always what you need.
Jack is a powerful witch with the ability to command fire and is anything but normal. As the head of a security detail for The Coven, a national organization that governs national witches, Jack has been assigned to watch over Mira. She is a natural born witch with the ability to call the air. And although she is unaware of her talent, a group of renegade witches has discovered her existence and are determined to steal her power--and her life.



CONTEMPORY/SAGA:

In 1920s Glasgow, Beattie Blaxland falls pregnant to her married lover Henry just before her nineteenth birthday. Abandoned by her family, Beattie and Henry set sail for a new life in Australia. But life is not about to follow the plan that Beattie had hoped for and fate will play her a cruel hand. In 2009, London, prima ballerina Lydia Blaxland-Hunter is also discovering that life can have its ups and downs. Unable to dance again after a fall, Lydia returns home to Australia to recuperate. But on arrival she is presented with some surprising news - her recently deceased and much-loved grandmother, Beattie Blaxland, has left her Tasmanian property to Lydia. Told through the eyes of a young Beattie Blaxland and a contemporary Lydia Blaxland-Hunter, this is an emotionally charged, seductive tale of self-discovery, secrets and surprises.


  Jake Andersen is a proud Currency lad with a swagger in his step and a joke for his mates, until he discovers the wife he is besotted with has left him, and taken their young daughter with her. A prize fighter, Jake decides to take matters into his own hands and find his wife, and the mongrel she ran off with. Fuelled by revenge he starts a long search across the colony and vows to never trust 'good women' again. Few people seem to think a gypsy girl like Keziah Stanley could ever be a 'good woman'. Separated by the law from her beloved gypsy husband, Keziah decides to travel to Australia to find the love of her life. With her tarot cards and strong beliefs, Keziah boasts she can read anybody's future, but her own life is proving harder to read, let alone manage. Daniel Browne already knows what his future will be: the life of a great artist. And he is determined to follow his dream; no matter what. When this volatile trio is thrown together in Australia, they form an extraordinary, unexpected alliance that will challenge the establishment. Love, hate, survival and revenge: all will discover the truth.
