In this world, girls are outcasts by blood and warriors by choice.</b><br /><br />Sixteen-year-old Deka lives in fear and anticipation of the blood ceremony that will determine whether she will become a member of her village. Already different from everyone else because of her unnatural intuition, Deka prays for red blood so she can finally feel like she belongs.<br /><br />But on the day of the ceremony, her blood runs gold, the color of impurity--and Deka knows she will face a consequence worse than death.<br /><br />Then a mysterious woman comes to her with a choice: stay in the village and submit to her fate, or leave to fight for the emperor in an army of girls just like her. They are called alaki--near-immortals with rare gifts. And they are the only ones who can stop the empire's greatest threat.<br /><br />Knowing the dangers that lie ahead yet yearning for acceptance, Deka decides to leave the only life she's ever known. But as she journeys to the capital to train for the biggest battle of her life, she will discover that the great walled city holds many surprises. Nothing and no one are quite what they seem to be--not even Deka herself.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53028775-the-gilded-ones">GOODREADS</a> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1984848690/ref=x_gr_w_bb_sin?ie=UTF8&tag=x_gr_w_bb_sin-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1984848690&SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2">AMAZON </a><a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/The-Gilded-Ones-Namina-Forna/9781984848697">BOOK DEPOSITORY</a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><b>Expected publication: February 9th 2021</b><div><b><br /></b></div><div><div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;"><b>Which book release are you excited for?</b></div><div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;"><b>Leave me a comment.</b></div></div><div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDk5YKm3vzrzc9v2DQJdERzyubz3h4gmQUHoil5zvfIPNir-pGH1iFaX0UddR4NZZbYaMNb1g-omHrwips9dXUgv9hcixHRCnCw17-REuedfverVV8JmXGJAO1Rje2ApRhpwvc_2foswFu/s245/name.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="81" data-original-width="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDk5YKm3vzrzc9v2DQJdERzyubz3h4gmQUHoil5zvfIPNir-pGH1iFaX0UddR4NZZbYaMNb1g-omHrwips9dXUgv9hcixHRCnCw17-REuedfverVV8JmXGJAO1Rje2ApRhpwvc_2foswFu/s0/name.jpg" /></a></div><br /><b><br /></b></div>Lea Krnjetahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06256792581245668496noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889988469986652573.post-29534276187507253872020-09-07T18:00:00.003+02:002020-09-07T21:26:40.095+02:00International blogger tag<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkg24fRMw3tpVKxacW0KjKMCXGfZrOFARxbOcKQJjcxXmcnANwuHuH-m4Op4UDj2lSWfsoD5xNLRX7mJMpa0GYEao6huZ9YOcNBYYXhuOfK27PAZfAKcjfMxM7q1BeTBaiNZ0WsEnIIoPk/s2048/Unpopular+opinions+book+tag.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="281" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkg24fRMw3tpVKxacW0KjKMCXGfZrOFARxbOcKQJjcxXmcnANwuHuH-m4Op4UDj2lSWfsoD5xNLRX7mJMpa0GYEao6huZ9YOcNBYYXhuOfK27PAZfAKcjfMxM7q1BeTBaiNZ0WsEnIIoPk/w500-h281/Unpopular+opinions+book+tag.png" width="500" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Happy Monday!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="25 GIFs That Perfectly Describe Your Hatred of Monday Mornings - E!

Also, there was no Instagram then. That community is wonderful, I follow a lot of them on their blogs, Instagram or Facebook. I am still trying to find croatian booktubers, though. </p><p>There are links on the left sidebar to some of my favorite croatian bloggers, check them out.</p><p><b>4) If there is a Blogging Community in your native language, why did you decide to join the international one?</b></p><p>Like I said, I wasnt aware that there was a large book blogger community then, I started this blog in 2012. And also, I read mostly in english, the wait for the translations is, for the most part, really slow.</p><p><b>5) Are there any struggles or challenges for you as a non-native English speaker?</b></p><p>Not really. My english grammar could be better.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="True Blood' Series Finale: All the GIFs You Need to See | Heavy.com | Page 51" class="n3VNCb" data-atf="true" data-deferred="1" data-h="282" data-iml="2809.000000001106" data-w="500" id="imi" jsaction="load:XAeZkd,gvK6lb;" jsname="HiaYvf" src="https://heavy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/vqsby3b.gif?w=500" style="height: 282px; margin: 11.55px 0px; width: 500px;" /></p><p><b>6) How do you get hold of English books?</b></p><p>There are a lot of croatian bookstores that have newer titles in english, specifically <a href="https://znanje.hr/kategorija-proizvoda/strana-knjiga/500020?sort=date&order=desc">Znanje</a> .

<br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">Act Your Age, Eve Brown <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/series/271642-the-brown-sisters">(The Brown Sisters #3)</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/17088554.Talia_Hibbert">Talia Hibbert</a> </span></b><br /><br /><br />In Act Your Age, Eve Brown the flightiest Brown sister crashes into the life of an uptight B&B owner and has him falling hard—literally.<br /><br />Eve Brown is a certified hot mess. No matter how hard she strives to do right, her life always goes horribly wrong—so she’s given up trying. But when her personal brand of chaos ruins an expensive wedding (someone had to liberate those poor doves), her parents draw the line. It's time for Eve to grow up and prove herself—even though she's not entirely sure how…<br /><br />Jacob Wayne is in control. Always. The bed and breakfast owner’s on a mission to dominate the hospitality industry—and he expects nothing less than perfection. So when a purple-haired tornado of a woman turns up out of the blue to interview for his open chef position, he tells her the brutal truth: not a chance in hell. Then she hits him with her car—supposedly by accident. Yeah, right.<br /><br />Now his arm is broken, his B&B is understaffed, and the dangerously unpredictable Eve is fluttering around, trying to help. Before long, she’s infiltrated his work, his kitchen—and his spare bedroom. Jacob hates everything about it. Or rather, he should. Sunny, chaotic Eve is his natural-born nemesis, but the longer these two enemies spend in close quarters, the more their animosity turns into something else. Like Eve, the heat between them is impossible to ignore—and it’s melting Jacob’s frosty exterior.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

I was away on vacation for two weeks and I am a big procrastinator so I did not have any scheduled posts for that time. So sorry about that. But now I am slightly recharged, a little bit rested and can devote my time to blogging again. This weeks topic is Books that intimidate me. There are a lot of books I would like to read, some I own, but I am scared to pick them up because of how many pages they are or I am afraid of having my hopes for the book dashed or the books were so hyped up or some other reason I cant think of right now.<br />
I have on my TBR these big fantasy series, like Discworld and Wheel of time, where a TV show is coming soon so I would like to be able to get through them at some point before that. Or Dune, before the movie.<br />
Or, in the case of IT, I am really scared of clowns but I would really like to read the book.<br />
<br />
Here are some books that intimidate me:<br />

All she really knows is that this isn't how things are supposed to be. Korey was Enchanted’s ticket to stardom.<br /><br />Before there was a dead body, Enchanted was an aspiring singer, struggling with her tight knit family’s recent move to the suburbs while trying to find her place as the lone Black girl in high school. But then legendary R&B artist Korey Fields spots her at an audition. And suddenly her dream of being a professional singer takes flight.<br /><br />Enchanted is dazzled by Korey’s luxurious life but soon her dream turns into a nightmare. Behind Korey’s charm and star power hides a dark side, one that wants to control her every move, with rage and consequences. Except now he’s dead and the police are at the door. Who killed Korey Fields?<br /><br />All signs point to Enchanted.</span></div>

Like I wrote in previous Heart to Heart, today I will be talking about my musical favorites.<br />
I always loved music, since I was very young but, of course, my music taste is vastly different today than it was then. In the 90s I was a big Britney Spears fan.. And boy bands were huge for me. I was watching and listening to MTV and Viva a lot. <br />
That all changed when I first heard Crawling by Linkin Park on MTV in 2002. I started to search for more bands similar to them and then branching out into ex-yu rock. In 2003. , when Bring me to life by Evanescence was first released, my love for alternative genres of music was sealed.<br />
For years I refused to listen to any pop and similar genres, I was to narrow minded, but for the last few years, I slowly began to loosen up a little musically and listen to more pop, R & B and hip-hop. Today I listen to a lot of different genres, like: rock, symphonic metal, power metal, folk metal, gothic rock and metal, industrial, hard rock, pop, hip-hop, indie pop, rock and folk, dance pop, R&B...<br />

<span id="freeText8420316957636152382">From prize-winning, bestselling author Colson Whitehead, a magnificent tour de force chronicling a young slave's adventures as she makes a desperate bid for freedom in the antebellum South.<br /><br />Cora is a slave on a cotton plantation in Georgia. Life is hell for all the slaves, but especially bad for Cora; an outcast even among her fellow Africans, she is coming into womanhood where even greater pain awaits. When Caesar, a recent arrival from Virginia, tells her about the Underground Railroad, they decide to take a terrifying risk and escape. Matters do not go as planned Cora kills a young white boy who tries to capture her. Though they manage to find a station and head north, they are being hunted.<br /><br />In Whitehead's ingenious conception, the Underground Railroad is no mere metaphor engineers and conductors operate a secret network of tracks and tunnels beneath the Southern soil. Cora and Caesar s first stop is South Carolina, in a city that initially seems like a haven. But the city s placid surface masks an insidious scheme designed for its black denizens. And even worse: Ridgeway, the relentless slave catcher, is close on their heels. Forced to flee again, Cora embarks on a harrowing flight, state by state, seeking true freedom.</span></div>

<b>MY REVIEW:</b></div>
<div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;">

<span style="text-align: left;"><b>“And America, too, is a delusion, the grandest one of all. The white race believes--believes with all its heart--that it is their right to take the land. To kill Indians. Make war. Enslave their brothers. This nation shouldn't exist, if there is any justice in the world, for its foundations are murder, theft, and cruelty. Yet here we are.”</b></span></div>
<div class="readable stacked" id="description" style="font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; right: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I really loved this book. It was well researched and structured and the idea of an actual railroad was really smart and added something different to the novel. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I have read some reviews saying that the book lacks emotion, that people weren't able to emotionally connect with Cora. In my opinion, you don't need to know the person to feel empathy and to be horrified when despicable and evil things happen to them, like in the case of this book, with everything that happens to enslaved black people (and everyone knows that this is just a glimpse of how wretched things were and still are today). I think the book was beautifully written and well executed. I found Cora to be compelling, she could be brash, she could be brave, she could be sarcastic, she was independent, smart, persistent. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">While the book is fast paced, and you can't help but want to read it in one go, it is dark, brutal and emotionally draining so it took me a while. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">The Underground Railroad should be required reading. While fiction, the background is real and so well researched, everyone should read it to educate themselves about slavery, race, white supremacy.</span></div>

Happy Monday everyone!<br />
Today I decided to write more about myself since it has been many years since I first started this blog and people change.<br />
My name is Lea, I am 30 years old and I am from Croatia. I live in Viškovo, which is a little town near the city of Rijeka and is a few miles from the Adriatic sea so I can go swimming whenever I want in the summer. I cant remember when I first fell in love with reading, somewhere early in elementary school. I remember, for punishment, instead of grounding me, my mom would take away my library card until my grades improved XD . I work as an accountant, which is admittedly boring.<br />
<br />
I love books, movies, tv shows and music. Here are some of my favorites:<br />
<br />
1. Favorite books<br />

They say she’s too bookish, too sarcastic, and worst of all, too picky when it comes to finding a nice werewolf boy and settling down.<br /><br />But when she meets vampire and Half-Moon Hollow music teacher, Alex Bonfils, Tylene starts to wonder if she could create the life she’s always wanted. She takes every precaution to meet her sexy vamp in secret, but when a vandal around town starts targeting vampire businesses, she fears her family might have found her out. When the damage in town escalates, Tylene and Alex join forces with Jane Jameson, Dick Cheney, and the whole vampire gang to find the culprit save Half-Moon Hollow before it’s too late!<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><div id="descriptionContainer" style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221);">

Hello!</div>
<div>
Today I will be talking about books you should stay away from, in my opinion. There are a couple reasons I give a book one star . Sometimes it is the writing, sometimes it is the plot, sometimes its the characters and sometimes it depends on the mood I am in while reading it. And sometimes all four.</div>
<div>
BEWARE! Spoilers ahead!</div>
<div>

<div>
First, what I think of as the worst series of all time:</div>
<div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This series angered me so much. The two main characters are toxic morons, the writing is subpar, there is no plot. I read the whole series just to see if they hopefully end up dead but no such luck.</div>

To be honest, I liked it when I first read it. What can I say, I was 21, to me, Travis was wowza. Today, I know better. He was manipulative, creepy and had major anger issues, Abby is, I have no words for her, she seems to think Earth revolves around her. America is a shitty excuse for a best friend. There really is no plot, other than them being on-off and non stop fighting, almost nothing really major happens. Just no, spare yourself the anger and disbelief.</div>

I am not saying that is bad , I just wasn<span style="background-color: white; color: #4d5156; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">'</span>t interested.

Sadly, these are not all of them, they were just more hyped. The bad reality is, libraries and bookstores are filled with books that are problematic for various different reasons. We should all try to read more Own voices and diverse books, commit to supporting marginalized authors. My goal for this year is to read more black authors and to try and promote them on the blog. </div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">After series. For the life of me, I never understood what was so great about this series. The main characters are a pair of psychos.</span><br />

But.. I remember the feeling I had while I was reading it, I remember anxiously awaiting the next book with my friends and then the movies. It is really nostalgic for me.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">First and foremost, True Blood. The books were ok but the show was perfection.

Titus can’t do it alone, but of the surviving powerful angels and archangels, large numbers are wounded, while the rest are fighting a surge of murderous vampires.<br /><br />There is no one left…but the Hummingbird. Old, powerful, her mind long a broken kaleidoscope. Now, she must stand at Titus’s side against a tide of death upon a discovery more chilling than any other.

I am super excited for this book. I love this series, it is a great example of urban fantasy and paranormal romance done right, with great stories and characters. I was always intrigued by the Hummingbird and hopefully this book shines some light on her past and I hope she finds some happiness. And Titus....I loved him from his first appearance so I am happy we will finally get his story.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">For my first Heart to Heart Monday back I decided to show you my reading plans for the summer, some books I have already read, some I plan on reading. My goal is to try to reduce my physical TBR, at least a bit, since I ran out of shelf space years ago and I plan to unhaul the books that I didnt really like. I already got rid of a lot of books that were just collecting dust and I knew I wasnt going to read them anytime soon or I lost interest in the genre (looking at you YA dystopia) or books that were good in the moment but forgettable in the end. </span></div>

HELLO!<br />
<br />
It has been a long time, 3 and a half years to be exact and I have missed this space. I loved reviewing books, making lists of favorites each year, even discussing stuff outside of the book world like movies and tv shows and music. I decided that all of that will be back, topics like Heart to heart Mondays, Top 5 Wednesday, playlists, Thursday tracks and, of course , reviews. I am reading a bit slower than I used to , most of my day is spent at work so I have a bit less time for reading but I still try to read at least 10 books a month, sometimes succesfully, sometimes not. There will be no more excessive book blasts and reveals and blog tours, I will be doing only books I am really, really excited about. And, while I will try posting at least 1-2 times a week, I cant promise that will always be the case, but hopefully it will be more often than not. And I will also try to post or translate posts into croatian.<br />
<br />
Hopefully, you stay with me as I try to figure out what blogging will mean for me in the future. See you next week with my first review in a long time and a new Heart to Heart Monday post ..<br />
<br />
Also, what do you want to see more of? What kind of posts are your favorite? Comment down below.<br />
<br />
Bye, bye!<br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;">About FIRE IN YOU (Standalone Contemporary Romance Releasing November 28, 2016):</span></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></em></strong>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><em>From the # 1 New York Times and International bestselling author comes a richly moving story about heartbreak and guilt, second chances and hope. Full of familiar, fan-favorite characters and no two people more deserving of a happy ending, Fire In You will burn bright beyond the last page…</em></strong> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Jillian Lima’s whole world was destroyed in a span of a few hours. The same night her childhood love, Brock ‘the Beast’ Mitchell, broke her heart, her life was irrevocably altered by the hand of a stranger with a gun. It takes six years to slowly glue together the shattered pieces of her life, but Jillian is finally ready to stop existing in a past full of pain and regret. She takes a job at her father’s martial arts Academy and she’s going out on her first date since a failed relationship that was more yuck than yum. Jillian is determined to start living.
She just never expected Brock to be a part of her life again. But he’s firmly back in her life before she knows it, and not only is he older, he’s impossibly more handsome, more teasing and more <em>everything</em>. And when he sees Jillian, he’s no longer capable of thinking of her as the little girl who was his shadow growing up or the daughter of the man who gave him a second chance at life. He sees the woman who’d always been there for him, the one person who believed in him no matter what.
Brock knows she’s the one he should’ve made <em>his</em>, and what begins as a tentative friendship quickly turns to red-hot chemistry that sparks a flame that burns brighter than lust. Falling for Brock again risks more than her heart, because when the sorrow-filled and guilt-ridden past resurfaces, and a web of lies threatens to rip them apart, the fallout could lay waste to everything they’ve fought to build together, and destroy the dreams of those they care most about.

Me: the ordinary girl with a big mouth against Him: the sexy bastard with a big...<em>ego</em>.</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> I thought I’d hit the jackpot when I was upgraded to first class on my flight to London.
That is until HE sat down next to me. Gabriel Scott: handsome as sin, cold as ice. Nothing and no one gets to him. Ever. He’s a legend in his own right, the manager of the biggest rock band in the world, and an arrogant ass who looks down his nose at me.
I thought I’d give him hell for one, long flight. I didn’t expect to like him. I didn’t expect to want him. But the biggest surprise? He wants me too. Only in a way I didn’t see coming.
If I accept his proposal, I leave myself open to falling for the one man I can’t manage. But I’m tempted to say yes. Because the real man beneath those perfect suits and that cool façade just might be the best thing that’s ever happened to me. And I just might be the only one who can melt the ice around his heart.
Let the battle begin…

<span style="font-size: large;">
I stroll toward the bedroom but come to an abrupt halt at the threshold. For a second, I can only gape at the sight that greets me. It’s so shocking, I turn around to check whether there are cameras rolling and I’m being punked.
“Why are you looking about like that?” Gabriel drawls, not taking his eyes from the TV.
“Just checking to make sure I hadn’t wandered into an alternate reality.”
“Amusing as always, Darling.”
Who could blame me for being suspicious? Gabriel Scott is out of his suit and wearing a soft, gray long-sleeve thermal and black sweats. This is shocking enough—but at least I’ve seen it before. The fact that he’s lounging in his bed, while eating some sort of dessert out of a bowl, is what has me flabbergasted.
“You’re staring,” he says dryly as he…
“Are you watching Buffy?” My voice has a tinge of a squeal.
He rolls his eyes. “Deal with it.”
“I’m just so…” My hand flutters to my chest. “Are you sure I’m not being punked?”
A snort escapes him. “You’re not famous, so no. I, on the other hand, have my moments of doubt that you aren’t here to punk me.”
I’m so happy, I have to fight grinning like a loon as I kick off my shoes and crawl onto the end of the bed. “If I were to punk you, I’d change out all your suits for polyester.”
At that, his eyes finally slide to mine, and his skin actually pales. “That’s just cruel, Darling.”
“Stop calling me that.” I steal his spoon.
“It’s your name.”
“Are you sure that’s what you’re calling me by?” I ask suspiciously, as he moves his bowl out of reach.
“What else would I be doing?” There’s a glint in his eye that leads me to answer in a sing-song voice.
“A term of endearment? Declaring your undying <em>lurve</em> for me.”
His nose wrinkles. “You’re going to put me off my pudding.”
“Pudding? Is that what you’re eating?” I lunge for the bowl, but he’s too quick, and I end up sprawled across his chest.
We both go still, me clutching the spoon in one hand, my other palm pressed against the firm swell of his pec, him with one arm still outstretched, his other one pinned beneath me.
His breathing goes deep and strong as he peers down at me. My attention drifts to his lips, beautifully sculpted and softly parted. How would he kiss? Would he start off slow, taking little nibbles, testing the waters? Or would he be the type to go all in, possess my mouth with his?
Heat floods my body, fluttering through my belly.
Gabriel’s lids lower, and his breath catches.
In the background, someone is shouting Buffy’s name. It’s enough to snap me out of whatever fog that touching Gabriel has pulled me into.
“You smell like apple pie,” I whisper inanely.
His gaze darts from my mouth to my eyes. “It’s crumble. Apple crumble.”
“Why did you call it pudding?”
“It’s what we Brits call dessert.” He’s still staring at my mouth. Dessert indeed.
My lips part, sheer lust making them plump. “Give me a bite.”
With an audible swallow, he slowly takes the spoon from my hand. I don’t look away from his eyes as he scoops up a bit of the crumble.
The spoon shakes just a little. Cool metal slides over my lower lip, and hot crumble fills my mouth. I barely suppress a moan, my lips closing around the spoon as he slowly draws it back out. He grunts in response, a short, helpless sort of sound that he quickly smothers.</span>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Summary from Goodreads:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For centuries, the people have lived under the protection of their so-called Dark Lord. Now, with news of his death reaching the quiet village of Everdark, rumour whispers that his son, Lucias, is hunting for a mistress to beget him an heir. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Clara doesn't put much stock in village gossip, until she finds herself forcibly taken to the Lord's fortress. Escape is not easy. She has no way out and, against a man with magic, little chance of fighting back. But the Lords are still men and the death of Lucias' father is proof that they die just the same. And yet, if Lucias dies heirless, his army will be free to terrorise the land. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Such is the goal of Lenora of Ne'ermore, an old enemy and ex-prisoner of the kingdom. She is sending a man to slaughter Lucias and, to ensure there's no chance of an heir, his mistress must die as well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Caught between regaining her freedom or losing it for the good of the kingdom, Clara struggles to decide her path before certain death breaches the gates.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">An errant tussock, pinned under her other foot, wrapped over her boot. Shuffling along the ground to free herself, she'd almost gotten the toe free when her ankle gave, dropping her face-first onto grass still wet with dew. Rolling unto her back, intent on appraising her throbbing ankle, she slowly became aware of beginning the cold and subtle glide downhill. Her speed increasing with the incline.<br /><br />Clara scrabbled at the ground, tearing up fistfuls of grass and dirt as she tumbled and slid down the mountainside. One tuft held long enough to slow her down. Another brought her to a stop. She clung to the fragile strands, carefully trying to get her legs under her.<br /><br />The blades released with a sudden and loud rip, throwing her into a clump of bushes waiting on the slope below.<br /><br />Hurling the underhanded grass to the ground, she glared up at the towers. Her fingers ached and her knees, no doubt scraped, stung. She wouldn't have felt less sore if someone had whipped her. Granted there'd be more bleeding, but not by much. It's all his fault! If only he'd let her be, as he'd done with the others. She didn't want to be anyone's mistress, let alone his.<br /><br />Branches snagged on her hair and clothes as she struggled to free herself. Gritting her teeth, she plucked at them, snapping off what she couldn't remove to be dealt with later. In any case, Katharina was a far better fit for such a life than her. If he'd just deigned to look at the woman instead of stopping at Clara, he would've seen it too.<br /><br />The steady thud of hooves marching along hard ground reached her over the muted rustle and creaking of branches. Halting all movement, she waited for the sound to fade, hoping the plainness of her skirts would blend with the bushes.<br /><br />"Quite the tumble you took there." The owner to the smug voice soon came into view as Lucias nudged the horse to stand before her. He leant forward, an arm resting on the black beast's neck. "Are you whole?"<br /><br />Clara glared up at the man. Whilst she'd been attempting to flee, he'd come after her on horseback. And, judging by the sweat-free coat of the animal, quite calmly. The nerve.</span><br />

Animal lover. Vampire. Fangirl. <br /> <br /> Aldrea Alien is a New Zealand author of romantic speculative fiction of varying heat levels.<br /> <br /> She grew up on a small farm out the back blocks of a place known as Wainuiomata alongside a menagerie of animals, who are all convinced they're just as human as the next person (especially the cats). She spent a great deal of her childhood riding horses, whilst the rest of her time was consumed with reading every fantasy book she could get her hands on and concocting ideas about a little planet known as Thardrandia. This would prove to be the start of The Rogue King Saga as, come her twelfth year, she discovered there was a book inside her.<br /> <br /> Aldrea now lives in Upper Hutt, on yet another small farm with a less hectic, but still egotistical, group of animals (cats will be cats). She still hasn't yet found an off switch to give her an ounce of peace from the characters plaguing her mind, a list that grows bigger every year with all of them clamouring for her to tell their story first. It's a lot of people for one head.<br /><br />Author Links:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.aldreaalien.com/">Website</a>│<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7328363.Aldrea_Alien">Goodreads</a>│<a href="https://www.twitter.com/AldreaAlien">Twitter</a>│<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Aldrea-Alien/262519090516776">Facebook</a> </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Elves are dying in the North Pole, and none of their scientists can find a cure. They believe it’s a virus, unleashed by a powerful enemy.

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><i><b>My Review:</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If there is anything this book has, it is plenty of imagination.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I can honestly say I never read anything quite like it and if you are missing Christmas and cant wait for it to come (like me) than this book is a perfect read to ease the pain of waiting.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am on a fantasy kick lately so I wanted to read this book because I thought it was fantasy and boy, was I wrong...and so happy to be wrong. This was a special read, with quirky and lovable characters, plenty of action and best of all, completely original. It will make you smile, it will make you sigh, it will make your heart race and it will bring out a well of emotions with it.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>His job is to find her, not to fall for her…</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Marsella Talent has been on the run for two years, ever since her father thrust a ledger into her hands and told her to run from the police swarming their family restaurant. Now, with the cops and her father’s men desperate to get their hands on the book, she knows she can never go home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Jake never thought he’d see Marsella again, not after he helped her escape the night of the sting operation targeting her father, August Talent. So when he stumbles upon a mysterious woman named Cassie, the spitting image of Marsella, he knows he has to gain her trust to finally make up for the mistake he made years ago.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Only the closer he gets to her, the more irresistible he finds her. And soon he realizes he’ll have to make a choice—prove his loyalty by getting back the ledger, or save the woman that he’s growing to love…</span></div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b><i>My Review:</i></b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">If there is the genre I love to read on a rainy day, it is a sexy romance and when you throw a little suspense and mystery in there, I am hooked.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is my first book from this author and I have to say, I will read all her other work.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We meet Marsella, a confident business woman, on her way to a dinner with her family where everything goes wrong, her father gives her his journal and tells her to run while there are police sirens coming closer. She goes, with a little help from Jake, whose face she didnt see that night. Cut to some time later, she is now Cassie, a waitress in a local diner. Everyone is still searching for her, including Jake. These two together are explosive. I just loved these two characters, Cassie/Marsella is strong, capable and smart while Jake is struggling with some major decisions.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For fans of steamy romaces and fast paced thrillers, this one is for you.</span><br />
