A Shade of Vampire

On the evening of Sofia Claremont’s seventeenth birthday, she is sucked into a nightmare from which she cannot wake.
A quiet evening walk along a beach brings her face to face with a dangerous pale creature that craves much more than her blood.

She is kidnapped to an island where the sun is eternally forbidden to shine.
An island uncharted by any map and ruled by the most powerful vampire coven on the planet. She wakes here as a slave, a captive in chains.

Sofia’s life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn when she is the one selected out of hundreds of girls to join the harem of Derek Novak, the dark royal Prince.

Despite his addiction to power and obsessive thirst for her blood, Sofia soon realizes that the safest place on the island is within his quarters, and she must do all within her power to win him over if she is to survive even one more night.

Will she succeed? …or is she destined to the same fate that all other girls have met at the hands of the Novaks?

Cover Reveal: REDEYE by Michael Shean

This sinister cover, my friend, is none other than that of REDEYE, the second installment of author Michael Shean’s The Wonderland Cycle. I haven’t read the first book, Shadow of a Dead Star, but I’ve read and reviewed the author’s other book Bone Wires.

The Wonderland Cycle is set in the same world where Bone Wires took place so I’m pretty sure these are cool reads, too. Check out the book summaries below!

Review: Treason (The Grimoire Trilogy #2) by S.M. Boyce

Finally finished reading the follow up to The Grimoire: Lichgates by author S.M. Boyce! In my review of Lichgates, I mentioned that I had a hard time getting into the book. Luckily, it wasn’t the same with the second book, Treason.

About the book
Ourea has always been a deadly place. The lichgates tying the hidden world to Earth keep its creatures at bay—for now.

Kara Magari ignited a war when she stumbled into Ourea and found the Grimoire: a powerful artifact filled with secrets. To protect the one person she has left, she strikes a deal that goes against everything she believes in. But things don’t go as planned.

Braeden Drakonin can no longer run from who—and what—he is. He has to face the facts. He’s a prince. He’s a murderer. He’s a wanted man. And after a betrayal that leaves him heartbroken, he’s out for blood.

To survive, both Kara and Braeden must become the evil each has grown to hate. — Get this book on Amazon

Spotlight: Showtime (Marvelle Circus #1) by Chloe Kayne

The weather’s been really nice and cool lately. Not cold enough to make you wanna get one of those nifty snow jackets, but cool enough to make me feel slow and lazy. Now I didn’t want to seem unproductive so today I decided to feature another book from my review pile! Yayyyyy. I feel bad about making these authors wait so long for my reviews, so I’m trying to make up for it by featuring their books in the meantime. Mwahaha. Anyway, I first saw this book on Goodreads and I was intrigue. Check it out, folks!

About the book

The grandeur of the traveling circus is at its peak in the early 1920s when sixteen-year-old Laila Vilonia is searching for an escape from her bleak future. Behind the gates of the legendary Marvelle Circus, she is thrust into a mysterious world she never knew existed—a paradise populated with outcasts. It’s in this glamorous new home that Laila sparks a controversial romance with notorious sideshow performer, “The Disappearing Man,” and learns just how dangerous her new life can be.

Touring the picturesque eastern coast of America, Laila’s immersed in friendship, vaudeville, festivals, sequins, and serial killers. But behind the curtain, a sadistic plan is brewing that will crack the very foundation upon which she’s become so dependent. — Get this book on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and iBooks.
