To end the nightmare, she has come to Budapest seeking help from men rumored to have supernatural abilities, not knowing she'll be swept into the arms of Maddox, their most dangerous member -- a man trapped in a hell of his own.

Neither can resist the instant hunger than calms their torments . . . and ignites an irresistible passion. But every heated touch and burning kiss will edge them closer to destruction -- and a soul-shattering test of love . . .
Though they carry an eternal curse, the Lords of the Underworld are irresistibly seductive -- and unimaginably powerful . . .

Cover Reveal: Secret (Elemental #4) - Brigid Kemmerer


I'm really not a fan of this cover at all!
What does everybody else think?

Secret (Elemental #4)

Nowhere is safe. Not even home…

Nick Merrick is stretched to the breaking point.

Keep his grades sky-high or he’ll never escape his hometown.
Keep his brother’s business going or the Merricks will be out on the street.
Keep the secret of where he’s going in the evenings from his own twin—-or he’ll lose his family.

Keep his mind off the hot, self-assured dancer who’s supposed to be his “girlfriend’s” partner.

Of course there’s also the homicidal freak Quinn has taken to hanging around, and the Elemental Guide counting the hours until he can try again to kill the Merrick brothers.

There’s a storm coming. From all sides. And then some.

Nick Merrick, can you keep it together?

Q: What do you do with your books after you are done reading them?
I pretty much keep my books, quite often I'll replace a paperback I've read with the hardcover because it looks prettier on my bookshelf and my sister gets all my paperbacks, she never has to walk into a bookshop she gets a lot of new releases after I've read them.

Welcome to my stop on the Viral Nation Blog Tour hosted by Rockstar Book Tours I'm delighted to be a part of this tour.
Guest Post to follow after the book review once I have received it.


Viral Nation (Viral Nation #1)

I highly recommend this book, anyone looking for a fantastic dystopian then pick this one up, you won't be sorry!
I give this 5/5 Stars.

About Shaunta.

My name is Shaunta Grimes.
I’ve been many things. Some I was born with, or created in a permanent way. Like being a mom, a wife, a daughter, a sister. Some I created, and they stuck. Like being a teacher. Others came about out of some passion or another, and they come and go. Like being a rural Nevada newspaper reporter, or running a drug court treatment program, or starting an online vintage clothing store.
No matter what I do, though, I always come back to telling stories.
You can find me at the book and movie blog, Story Carnivores, that I write with my friend Brian Rowe. Also, come join the party on Twitter or Facebook.  I also blog pretty regularly at Fierce Fatties.
I’d love to hear from you, too. You can reach me at shauntagrimes@gmail.com.

Book Review (248): Just For Now (Sea Breeze #4) - Abbi Glines


Just for Now (Sea Breeze #4)

AMAZON  BARNES & NOBLE

Quotes.
“Hearts don’t realize they’ve been lied to. They still love anyway.” 

“I love you. I love you so damn much it consumes me. I don't deserve you, but I'm gonna become the man who does deserve you. I promise you. I'll make you proud of me.” 

“Nothing about this thing we have is a bad thing. I’m not gonna lie about it: I don’t deserve you. I’m sure as hell not good enough for you, but as long as you want me, I’m all yours.” 

“I didn't need taming. I needed saving.” 

“In the screwed-up life I’d been dealt, she was my only source of comfort.” 

About Abbi.


Abbi Glines was born in Birmingham, Alabama. She grew up in the small town of Sumiton, Alabama where she left the summer she turned eighteen. She didn’t get far… she chased her high school sweetheart down to the coast and she’s been there ever since.
Abbi now lives in the quaint southern town of Fairhope, Alabama with her three children and husband Keith (the high school sweetheart she chased after). Her life is never dull and Keith always makes sure there is another “experience” for them to explore.
Books published by Abbi include The Vincent Boys and the USA TODAY bestseller The Vincent Brothers, Breathe, Because of Low, the USA TODAY bestsellers While It Lasts and Just For Now, The Existence Trilogy that includes the USA Today Bestseller Ceaseless, and The New York Times bestseller and Wall Street Journal bestseller Fallen Too Far. Currently she is working on Never Too Far, the sequel to Fallen too Far.
When Abbi isn’t locked away in her office typing away she is hauling her kids to and from their many social activities. You could say her second job is the Glines Kids personal chauffeur. It’s a rather illustrious job.
