COVER REVEAL!!! ~ Birds of Prey by Yolanda Olson

Leave a comment

Title: Birds of Prey
Author: Yolanda Olson
Genre: Dark Taboo Romance
Release Date: June 2, 2023
Cover Design: Black Widow Designs



I don’t know this stranger that stopped to help me.

He offered me a ride because “pretty girls shouldn’t walk alone at night.”

I see how smiles at me through the mirror, hoping that I can’t see the intent in his eyes.

Evil is always easy enough to pick out.

This man is no wolf, and I’m no lamb.

Now we’re locked in a game that only one of us will walk away from.

He says that my mistake was getting into the wrong car.

His mistake is assuming that I’m helpless.

Or alone.

BOOK REVIEW ~ Heinous by Yolanda Olson

Leave a comment

I just finished reading Heinous by Yolanda Olson and it is a duet (I think, I hope) and Book 2, Hideous comes out 9.11.2022

ABOUT:

Someone once said that if you talk about the devil, he’s bound to appear.

Most would keep silent, hoping that they’d never be found by such a monster, but I prayed for his touch every night.

I knew the devil when I was a child and fell in love with him the first time he taught me that I wasn’t as damaged as I was led to believe that I was.

He cared for me, helped me learn how to smile, and see the world in a different way even though he didn’t realize that he had done so.

But they feared him; hated him.

So seventeen years ago, they ripped him away from me.

What they didn’t know was that he had already created a monster in his very image.

I thought I’d never see him again—I finally resigned myself to that. But then he came back, just like he promised he always would through that smile of his.

We’re together again.

And now, no one will be able to keep us apart ever again.

Title: Inhale, Exhale
Author: C.L. Matthews
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 13, 2019

 

“I do.”

 

Two words woven in love.
In sickness and in health.
For better or for worse.
Til death do us part.
And death dragged us apart.
We both said these vows.
But neither of us kept them.
This is not one of those happy stories.
Life isn’t made of simple choices and happily ever afters.
It’s a dark place.
It’s not easy.
It’s full of mistakes and lessons.
It hurts.
And in the end, those two words said in love, are the same ones said in hate.
“You want a divorce?”
“I do.”

He stalked her from afar for years, so now she’s returning the favor.
I haven’t always been the best person.
I’ve rarely made the right choices.
I have a past which is painful and dark,
One I didn’t think I would survive.
But I was saved.
And finally, after going through hell,
Things are beginning to change.
I’m becoming independent again.
I’m getting stronger.
No one but I can see this.
He certainly can’t.
He’s been stalking me for a long time.
It’s his way of keeping me protected.
And I’ve let him do this.
But now it’s time the tables are turned.
Now it’s time for me to protect him.
I’m about to become the savior,
And I won’t let him down.
I can’t.
Because if I fail, then I’ll lose everything.
Stalking to save a life doesn’t sound ethical…
Then again, as some people say: there is nothing quite like love at first … crime.

The Queen of All.”

Title: Coveted
Series: St. Cecilia Slayings #4
Authors: N. Isabelle Blanco & Dee Garcia
Genre: Dark Romance

Release Date: July 23, 2019

And fear not them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul; but rather fear Him that is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. – Matthew 10:28

Just when I thought we were getting closer, the Slayer threw us for a loop.
She changed up her pattern.
Amplified the already harrowing sense of panic rippling through the city.
And I, personally, have a heaping double dose.
While that psycho continues killing in rapid succession, I’m still in the midst of trying to uncover, not only what’s happening behind closed doors at the DuBois estate, but if their wealth makes them targets, too.
Bottom line—my girl is in some kind of trouble.
I can feel it within every fiber of my being, and when she disappears from one day to the next, I fear the worst. 
A fear I have no choice but to control.
One that must remain hidden away as I attempt to keep my head in the game and deal with a now rogue partner.
But the drink calls me, memories of Kiera relentlessly taunt me—all while the body count continues to rise.
No one is safe.
Everyone is a suspect.
And after one mysterious late night kill, I think it’s safe to say the stakes are higher than ever before.

Publisher: Limitless Publishing
The Ancients are free.
 
All bets are off.
 
With the rise of the primordial creators of the world of Under—a place I only recently accepted was now my home—everything changed. The sun rose. Dusts and sands came to wipe everything away. Including Aon.
 
I learned his dark secret that moment that the sun peeked over the horizon. We all used to be human, once. Even Edu and the others. But not him. He’s the only soul ever made by the Ancients…and it left his mind shattered and broken. But the Ancients have made him whole. And I’m not so certain I’m glad that they did.
 
And who stands before me now is the King of All.
 
Aon was a madman and a warlock.
 
This man might be worse.
