About the Author:

I am a small town girl with big dreams. I grew up in a small coastal community called Pamlico County in the town of Reelsboro North Carolina. Growing up in such a rural area there wasn’t much to do, so I developed a wide fantasy finding solace in writing poetry and songs. After high school I left my little secure coastal town to discover other parts of the country. It was a sad and lonely time, but also a fun and exciting time in my life. I had too many emotions to process so I started to put it all down on paper. That became the start of my first novel, which I have yet to finish. My first complete novel entitled Protector was a dream come true, although I found out during the process, at 31 years old, I am dyslexic. Reading was always a struggle throughout my life and finding out why has really made a difference in me and my writing. It was such a wonderful and daunting process but I have succeeded in doing something I never thought I would do. I have 3 novels published, Protect, Protect Me and Too Close To Home and 2 more on the way. Writing is such a passion of mine and will continue to be whether I become successful with it or not. I currently live out side of my home town with my husband and daughter.

Literary Addicts Weekly Meme – Best Book Club Choice

literaryaddictsmeme

What book would be the BEST book club choice? Why?

The Posse by Tawdra Kandle. First off, this is about a woman of a certain age. Actually my age so I think a book club of my peers would really like this book. Being married with 2 kids like Jude, it would be interesting the discuss the possibility of a second chance at love. The events in this book are real and something we can all relate to; we all probably know someone who has faced them.
The other reason is it would make for a great theme for a party. 80’s music, beach, hot men…what’s not to like? Everyone could come wearing summer clothes and flip flops. We could drink limoncello. And talk about which guy we would want to end up with!

Review:

Absolutely loved this book! After an attention grabbing prologue, this book never stops. It starts off with college girls going out for a fun time (I remember those days, sort of) and then takes off from there.
The author has created quite a cast of characters. I love how you get to meet them all and get to know them in due time. The main character has flaws of course but she is strong and gets through with help from her friends. This makes her so relatable to me, she is like someone I could have known. I want to be friends with her and her friends, they are a fun and supportive group. And of course being introduced to a group of werewolves is always interesting. Their way of life, the hierarchy of the pack made for fascinating reading. I loved how the author explained how this group came to be; the story of their ancestry was also woven into the story.Another thing I liked was the setting, a college town up north. Being a northerner by birth, I could really connect to the place. The descriptions of the homes, the woods, and the cold weather (reminding me why I moved south) were all reminiscent of where I grew up.
The paranormal aspect was fresh and new which is hard to do now. There are so many out there. But the author puts her own spin on it and while I won’t give away spoilers, it was entertaining and fun to read. The author did a fabulous job moving the reader along, there were no dull spots and she kept me guessing as to what would happen next. Almost everyone she is close to becomes involved in the story.
The ending is making me want more and to know what happens next in this adventure and I am hoping she doesn’t leave me waiting long. If you are a paranormal fan, you will want to read this book….and if you are not, this book will make you one!
This is definitely a red wine book. Whatever kind you like, I enjoyed a Cabernet Sauvignon with this one.

Literary Addicts Weekly Meme – Favorite Villain

literaryaddictsmeme

Favorite villain you love to hate? There are so many. The obvious ones, Voldemort, Captain Hook, the White Witch. The ones in young adult or children’s books are easy to spot.
But I recently read a book with a truly scary villain…Queen Nix in Fall of Sky City by S.M. Blooding. Crazy is a nice way to put it. She kills people, even children and does other horrible things I can’t even write here. Seriously nasty stuff. Like would not want to meet her in a dark alley or anywhere else for that matter. But you just have to see what she does next because you can’t believe what she does!
Love to hate her! And waiting ever so patiently for the next book to come out to see if she gets what she deserves.
