Rock, Meet Hard Place
This is a great introduction to this author and story for me. It is well written and has an engaging storyline. I really enjoyed this original take on gargoyles and magic. The characters are likable and have great personalities. I really look forward to reading more of this new series.

I am voluntarily leaving an unbiased, honest review.

Clockwork felon Maggie alabaster prequel

This kind of seemed steam punk like to me it was an interesting short. I bet the other story at the end has some yummy mm. I loved the detail just enough to make you want more.

Deadliest Quirah Casey prequel

I think the idea of this story is totally bad ass. I am totally hooked. The Fmc is totally amazing and I love the idea of their powers.

Elemental beginnings m.m. Chabot

This was a supper cool story idea. This kind of gave me avatar the last airbender vibes mixed with divergent. Totally worth an add to the tbr.

Cell block sorcery tiegan clyne

This was a fun short detailed story I love how her work has vivid imagery it sucks you in every time. The character I can tell is snarky but she won't go down easy and I think she likes that warlock more than she wants to admit. I think the ending was my favorite I hope she expands on it if not it's a great short witchy read.

Emma Cole. Nicked prequel

They sound like some versions of odd shifter I was totally digging this one.

May Dawson freed

This was such an unexpected book I totally feel for it. I didn't see that ending coming at all.

Freak Elizabeth Dunlap

This was such an unusual story I can't even begin to explain it but I know I need to read the full story.

Cyndi Faria uncaged

Well that was a twist on a vampire book. I. Liked it it was an interesting read for sure. Some of the military lingo went over my head though.

This was a sweet quick read that I didn't see coming I loved it nicely done.

Bee Murray. Reporting for duty

Raven shifters that sounds awesome. What a fun interesting funny start to a story. I see a snarky fmc and some cocky and awkward males. I like it a lot worth a look into.

Jen ponce rock meet hard place

I love how this intertwined with another series. I think gargoyles turn human will give it tons of funny parts I approve her other series sounds awesome as well.

Margo Bond Collins makes you want to go right out and get the next book in the story after reading Broken Chains, “A La Isla Perdida Paranormal Prison Prequel” (say that three times fast - laugh). I am already in love with Evangeline, Mara, and Gage. Collins has magic, shape-shifters, battles, and human a**wipes. Gotta love a story like that. Stick a fork in me because you had me at cat burglars who are chained up. (laugh)

Elizabeth Dunlap kicks off an exciting new series “Highborn Asylum” in Freak. Violet, aka “Letty”, wakes up everyday pretty much with no memory. If she is lucky she sees a boy, who calls her Letty, and does not mind that she can hear the walls talk. All she knows is the walls of the Asylum even though the boy tells her differently. He says she is magic and has seen it. She thinks he is as nuts as her. I loved this story. It is deep, dark, and twisted. It has so much potential. Freaking loved it!!!

Gargoyles that turn into hot men. Men that have a sense of humor and honor? Jen Ponce knows how to write a hero in Rock, Meet Hard Place which is part of the “Magic, Mayhem, & Rebellion Series”. Ponce does not write much about Poppy other than the guys think she is cute (laugh) - typical guys. On the other hand, Ponce has created quite the background for our guys and their gargoyle world. I love their humor most and I have a feeling their punches come with snarky one liners.

Locked in prison is the theme lately. These writers make it seem like fun to watch.

I read The Prison of Despair by D. A. Stein. This review is ONLY for that short story. I did not get any of the other stories in this book set. Vampires being caught by vampires and taken to a prison to breed after being drugged and the it cuts off. I really didn't understand the book. It didn't seem to have an ending and I didn't know really why anything was happening. I didn't have long enough to like the characters. It was not my cup of tea.
