OK, so I got  posts in 7 days, What about you guys? Happy reading!

So this week I want to read Day Zero, Arcana Rising, Avenged, The Flame Never Dies.

Arcana means secrets, and these Arcana Chronicles short stories from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole are filled with them. Experience firsthand the beginning of the end and behold the apocalypse through the eyes of characters you only thought you knew.

Ashes to ashes . . .
Evie Greene’s story of the Flash is just one of many. All over the world, those connected in some way to the lethal Arcana game—like Death, Jack, and Fortune—must first survive a horrifying night of blood and screams.

We all fall down.
Some will have to grapple with new powers; all will be damned to a hellish new existence of plague, brutality, desolation, and cannibalism. Find out who they lost, why they endure, and what they sacrificed in order to live past Day Zero. . .
Losses mount and deadly new threats converge in this next action-packed tale of the Arcana Chronicles by #1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole.

When the battle is done . . .
The Emperor unleashes hell and annihilates an army, jeopardizing the future of mankind--but Circe strikes back. The epic clash between them devastates the Arcana world and nearly kills Evie, separating her from her allies.

And all hope is lost . . .
With Aric missing and no sign that Jack and Selena escaped Richter's reach, Evie turns more and more to the darkness lurking inside her. Two Arcana emerge as game changers: one who could be her salvation, the other her worst nightmare.

Vengeance becomes everything.
To take on Richter, Evie must reunite with Death and mend their broken bond. But as she learns more about her role in the future--and her chilling past--will she become a monster like the Emperor? Or can Evie and her allies rise up from Richter's ashes, stronger than ever before?
Avenged is the conclusion to the Vanished duology, an absorbing, psychological suspense story about friendship, deception, jealousy, and love, perfect for fans of the Pretty Little Liars series and We Were Liars.

Everyone believes Beth’s death was an accident, except for Kalah. The girl she loved was stolen from her, and now Kalah’s broken heart wants revenge. In order to crack Brit’s perfect alibi, Kalah pretends to be Brit’s best friend—with the sole mission to destroy her.

Kalah knows that playing Brit’s game is deadly. One wrong move could cost someone her life, including her own…but the more lies Kalah tells, the closer she is to the twisted truth.
For fans of Cassandra Clare and Richelle Mead comes the unputdownable sequel to The Stars Never Rise, a book Rachel Caine, author of the bestselling Morganville Vampires series, called “haunting, unsettling, and eerily beautiful.”

ONE SPARK WILL RISE. Nina Kane was born to be an exorcist. And since uncovering the horrifying truth—that the war against demons is far from over—seventeen-year-old Nina and her pregnant younger sister, Mellie, have been on the run, incinerating the remains of the demon horde as they go.

In the badlands, Nina, Mellie, and Finn, the fugitive and rogue exorcist who saved her life, find allies in a group of freedom fighters. They also face a new threat: Pandemonia, a city full of demons. But this fresh new hell is the least of Nina’s worries. The well of souls ran dry more than a century ago, drained by the demons secretly living among humans, and without a donor soul, Mellie’s child will die within hours of its birth.

Nina isn’t about to let that happen . . . even if it means she has to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Week 33 Review: Bitten by Cupid

From Goodreads:
WITH THEIR VERY LIVES AT STAKE, LOVE WAS THE LAST THING ON THEIR MINDS. BUT THEN THEY WERE
Bitten by Cupid... 

-A Daring Vampire thinks she can conquer anything, but when she's paired with a mortal detective, she'll find her life--and her heart--in grave danger...

-An innocent woman falls into the arms of a mysterious man when she can't get a killer's terrifying thoughts out of her head...

-A stunning beauty should be thrilled when her lost love finally returns, but instead she fears for their immortal lives...

On Valentine's Day, some women want roses. But some just want to make it through the day alive. In Bitten by Cupid, New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands and newcomers Pamela Palmer and Jaime Rush present three tales of dangerous desire, where giving in to temptation could turn deadly, and even immortality won't keep you safe from Cupid's bow.

My Review:
Oh, this anthology was just so fantastic to read! I started reading it for the Lynsay Sands story, and loved all three stories within! I'd previously enjoyed Pamela Palmer's books, Jaime Rush was a new author to me, and I owe finding her books to this anthology!

Mirabeau and Tiny were a great couple! And they did it all while completing their mission-in wedding clothing. So go, them! I really enjoyed reading about them, they were just an excellent couple!

Having to live with a killer's thoughts in your head, is pretty awful. But finding the guy who you fall in love with because of that, well, that's something to help get you through! I really enjoyed this couple and their story!

Heart Untamed, Zee, is probably going to be the only book in this series not staring a feral warrior. Maybe he'll become one, what with the fox feral warrior dying, but for now, in this book, he wasn't. And yeah, I enjoyed the secrets and romance in this book, and can't wait to see how it's all going to play out!

Loved reading this anthology, it was just amazing!

Week 33 Reviews: A Perfect Darkness, Out of the Darkness, Touching Darkness



From Goodreads:
They live ordinary lives, but they are extraordinary. They are the Offspring, children of a mysterious experiment gone awry--and they are in terrible danger.

A sexy stranger awakens Amy Shane in the dead of night. Lucas Vanderwyck barely has time to whisper a few words before three men burst into her bedroom and drag him away. But what Lucas reveals shatters Amy's safe little world forever.

Lucas and Amy share a psychic gift--a gift that could put them in mortal danger. And as they share night after night of savage passion, as a shadowy government conspiracy tracks their every move, they will fight to save each other. But only with their powers of second sight can they escape the terror of a perfect darkness. 

From Goodreads:
They live ordinary lives, but they are extraordinary. They are the Offspring, children of a mysterious experiment gone awryand they are in terrible danger.

Rand Brandenburg can see the future, yet thus far all he has done with his unique ability is become a skillful gambler. But according to the Offspring, his power has made him a target and could get him killed. So the loner used to living on the edge is now hiding out with others just like him, including Zoe Stoker, a mysterious redhead who has his heart soaring.

But that's not the only thing Zoe's got flying. All her life, whenever she felt anything too intensely, objects would start moving. She's never been able to control her power, so instead she's shut down her emotions. Now, as a powerful enemy approaches, she's losing control of her heart. But letting love lead her out of the darkness might save her life... 

From Goodreads:
Nicholas Braden, a psychic spy in a covert government program, suspects he's a pawn in a mad man's quest for justice. His boss's stunning assistant is too loyal to give him answers, but Olivia's secret, wild side bends his mind and fires his body. As they edge closer to the darkest truth, good and evil blur, threatening their very survival.

My Review:
Loved reading these books! I loved the world, the characters, the romances, the mysteries, and the writing! Just the whole package, and just so enjoyable! And yeah that this series is going to continue, because I'm really enjoying it!

It aggravated me so much, that they felt entitled, justified, in doing what they did. In murdering people who wouldn't go along, kidnapping others to use them. It was horrible, and I was glad for every victory that the good guys made against them!

The way that this world worked, with their powers, and their parents, yeah, that was really interesting! Plus there was all the paranoia, because yeah, a fraction of the government is out to get them, so that was great!

I really enjoyed these romances, and the thriller/action bits! They all came together for a really enjoyable time reading this series! And yeah, this is a series, and each book built upon the previous, and combined, made for such a great series and a great read!

Loved these books, they were really great, and I can't wait to read more!
