Friday Finds

Friday Finds is a meme where you talk about all the good stuff you came across during the week! I've done a little looking around on the Barnes and Noble website and found a few books that look promising.

This meme is where you post what you read last week, what you are currently reading, and what you plan to read next. I just got back into the swing of things on here and didn't do any reading last week. I'll start mine with what I am currently reading, feel free to post a comment with your answers! :)

Just wanted to let everyone know that I've updated the Free Books List. What are you waiting for? Go check it out!!!

I'm just getting back in the swing of things and haven't had much time to look for some new stuff, but I DID come across this!! The second book in The Legends of Regia series by Tenaya Jayne. I was looking at her blog and came across this, I was soooooo excited!!! I loved the first book and can't wait to read the second book. :)

“Syrus…” Forest whispered. “Kiss me.”

He could see her clearly in the dark; her long tresses falling over her shoulders, her eyes spread madness in his mind, beckoning him. But every time he reached for her, his fingers drifted right through her and she’d vanish.

Loneliness had crystallized inside Syrus’ blood. The spiked edges lacerated him with every beat of his heart. The dark womb offered no warmth or comfort. His mind was stuck on an infinite loop that caused such terrible agony and sorrow; Forest. His self-induced hallucinations of her were a double-edged sword that cut going in and coming out, but he couldn’t find the power to stop having them. Physically he was weak like an old man. The cell made his mage power useless. Syrus could do nothing but wait.

I've been quoted!

So happy to announce that I've been quoted!! I did a cover reveal and wrote a review for Tenaya Jayne a few months back and I loved her book! I took a time out for awhile and am just now seeing this. :) http://tenayajayne.com/

*Born in shame. Cast from society. Shape Shifter/Elf hybrid, Forest must fight for any respect she can get. Targeted in her youth by a vampire noble who placed an illegal slave mark on her, she is forced obey him, no matter what.

Slipping the grip of her master and abandoning the prejudice of Regia, her native world, Forest takes a job on Earth, guarding the portal, using her skills as a warrior to enforce Regia's laws. Now, called home for a black ops mission, Forest must put aside her own prejudice to transport the vampire prince, Syrus, through enemy territory in a time of war.

Prince Syrus, mage and master of the Blood Kata, wants Forest more than he's ever wanted anything. In spite of their mutual mistrust, their attraction cannot be denied. Through the danger of their mission, and the secrets they both keep, it doesn't matter what they feel. Forest is forbidden.
