Stolen by Raye Wagner Review

STOLEN

Written by: Raye Wagner

Goodreads synopsis:

Dark fantasy. Slow-burn romance. Unexpected twists you won’t see coming.

My memory is lost. Gone. I can’t remember my name or magîk. I don’t know what happened to our ruler or why the jungle is transforming, becoming even more wild. Who is the guard and why is he angry? And why do I feel safe with a deadly panthera?

Arriving in Pûleêr, I hope to find relief among the magî and, hopefully, some answers. Instead, the laws of nature change before my eyes, and the dangers of the jungle are nothing compared to this twisted utopia.

When the panthera leaves, a new magî joins the outpost, and I know he has answers. But what if all of my questions were wrong?

As the jungle vines converge and tighten, I begin to wonder . . . Was my memory truly lost—or was it stolen?

Welcome to the kingdom of Qralî where magic, romance, and mystery tangle amidst the lush fauna and deadly predators of the jungle. If you enjoy fantasy books with unique stories, plot-twists that will keep you guessing, and dangerous risks—all in the name of love, be prepared to fall hard.

Better clear your schedule first.

Scroll up and one-click for a romantic adventure you’ll never forget!

**Due to thematic elements, STOLEN is recommended for upper YA/adults. Sensitive readers should be aware of potential triggers.**

My Thoughts:

This book had so many twists and turns, I loved it! Loved the world and characters in this book... The whole story was really unique annd it was an extremely enjoyable read! Loved how Raye kept me guessing, everytime I thought I had it worked out...BOOM.... I didn't. I will say that the beginning was a little bit confusing just because it seemed like I had missed something due to it just being a new world anf some new terminology I wasn't familiar with but I made sense as you went along. I can't wait for the next installment in this series.

Circe Review

Circe

Written By: Madeline Miller

 

 

 

 

Synopsis:

     In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child—not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power—the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.

Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many of the most famous figures in all of mythology, including the Minotaur, Daedalus and his doomed son Icarus, the murderous Medea, and, of course, wily Odysseus.

But there is danger, too, for a woman who stands alone, and Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of both men and gods, ultimately finding herself pitted against one of the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians. To protect what she loves most, Circe must summon all her strength and choose, once and for all, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from, or the mortals she has come to love.



My Thoughts:

 

      I love Greek mythology, I have been fascinated by myths ever since I was a little girl. I have heard of Circe the daughter of the Helios and a nymph, but I never knew how her story really went. I received this book as a gift and was thrilled when I opened the box and saw it, the cover is really beautiful and simple.

     When I started this book I will admit it was a little slow moving, however I had to read more about Circe. I felt so sad for  Circe and the way that her family treated and tormented her. I had never really thought about the fact that the titans and Gods of myth would be so cruel but it actually kind of makes sense that they would because they would have seen themselves as better than any lesser beings. I was very upset when Circe's brother just turned on her after she had cared for him so deeply and was very thrown off at the thought of Helios extreme love for his cows. I found myself feeling everything Circe was going through and understood her transformation into the powerful witch who never took any grief from anyone.

      I enjoyed the last half of the book the most, especially after Circe went to aid her sister during her unusual pregnancy. I felt that Circe was very humanized and extremely easy to relate to. I found myself rooting for her even when maybe I shouldn't have been. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in a woman character who finds her strength and preserves through tragedy and torment, as well as anyone who loves Greek mythology.

The Reapers Review

The Reapers

written by: Ali Winters

 

 

 

 

Synopsis:

      
      The balance of life and death must be protected at all costs.

Nivian had never failed to Reap a marked soul. That is, until she meets Kain Evers, a Hunter and the only being on earth with the power to destroy her.

When Reapers start to go missing, the Balance is thrown into turmoil, forcing Nivian and Kain to trust each other as they search for answers. Which is no easy task as they fight the feelings growing between them.

As mortal enemies, they were never meant to work together, now they're forced to protect each other if they want any hope of righting the Balance before all is lost.

Unfortunately, to succeed, one of them must die.



 

 

 

 

My thoughts:

 

   I love stories about reapers, I love all the different ways people see reapers roles and responsibilities. This book was very good, I like how Ali Winters had the reapers as not causing death and destruction but simply cutting the mortals life threads so they could move onto the next phase. I also enjoyed the reapers ability to only be seen by humans if they wanted to be. I love how Nivian challenged things when it no longer made any sense. I also enjoyed the build up of the relationship between her and Caspian and her and Kain. I definitely enjoyed this book and will be reading the rest of the series.

I'm not misunderstood.

I'm not confused about my position in life.

I'm not looking for answers to explain why I am the way I am.

This is the logic others use to try to make sense of me. According to them. there has to be a reason for my apathy. There has to be some sort of explanation for the calculating way I run my Club. There has to be a root cause for my depravity.

They can't wrap their heads around the fact that I'm evil, that I'm darkness personified. Doing so would force them to acknowledge that the Devil has left Hell and is living among them. 

Most people may think I'm Satan, but I answer to Lynch, President of the Ravens Ruin MC, and the Antichrist doesn't have sh*t on me.

  I dream of one day taking over the family law firm, the largest on the East Coast.  But in order for that plan to become a reality, I must do everything my father asks, including marrying a man I barely know. Enter Maxton Colter, a walking contradiction and not the man my father chose for me. He’s infuriatingly arrogant… yet charming. He’s inappropriate… yet intriguing. He’s a playboy… yet focuses all his attention on me. He’s doing everything he can to unravel my goal to one day take over the firm. Question is… will I fall prey to the undeniable chemistry between us and allow him to destroy my dream?

 

  S. Nelson grew up with a love of reading and a very active imagination, never putting pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard until 2013.  Her passion to create was overwhelming and within a few months she’d written her first novel, Stolen Fate.  When she isn’t engrossed in creating one of the many stories rattling around inside her head, she loves to read and travel as much as she can.  She lives in the Northeast with her husband and two dogs, enjoying the ever changing seasons.
