Mother can’t kill me. Not that she hasn’t tried.
I’m the heir to a modern-day magical dynasty, daughter of the most powerful mage in existence. From day one, Mother made it apparent that she never wanted me—never wanted an heir at all.
This is a terrific book. So good that I went and bought book two straight away. What a brilliant read, I couldn’t put it down. The characters are amazing, each with their issues that tug at the heart strings. Read More…

A human investigator in a magical world…what could possibly go wrong? .
A brilliant paranormal adventure, in fact three in one!
If you love Jim Butcher or Benedict Jacka then you’ll love Kate Baray. Baray has created a wonderful character in Jack Spirelli, a human paranormal investigator and in Marin, the dragon shifter. Three stories in one, each a new case for Jack Spirelli. Great characters, enjoyable read, I listened to the audible version and the narrator was great! The relationship between Jack and Marin evolves throughout the stories and is really entertaining. Off to find the next episode! Read More…

Oh, you think you know Cinderella? She loses a shoe and in exchange gets a prince.
Here’s a double book that tells all – the stepmother’s side supplemented by Ella’s diary of the events. If Thumbelina was more Roald Dahl and suitable for kids, this one is a dark fairy tale adaptation for a more adult (18+) audience in the vein of Sarah Pinborough’s Charm and Jackson Pearce’s Sweetly.
This is such a clever book!! Laugh out loud in places and Sommers makes you think twice about what you thought was the truth. A very well written, thought provoking book, as all fairy tales should be. Read More…

This is a nice fantasy romance, set in a fae world which exists beside the human world, and has adapted some, but not all, of the human ways.
Kirian and I were just twelve years old when I pulled him from the icy waters of the creek behind my house. As he looked in my direction with unseeing lavender eyes, I quickly realized our age was just about the only thing we had in common. He spoke with an accent, he had pointy ears, and he was so beautiful it made my heart ache. Oh, and he claimed to be a fae prince cursed by witches who stole his sight. Read More…
