I am stoked to be back and I have tons of news to share. Let's dive in!
Derinda Love
| Derinda Love is back with a brand new release. A Breath Between Us is the final book in her Life & Death Trilogy. I've read the first two and I can't wait to dive into the final one. |  |

We are traveling back to Carnage Crossing in Book 2, Rotting Reign from Stacey Rourke. Book 2 releases on August 17 and I happen to have a ARC so I will have an early review for you guys soon.
The queen on her throne, the veil sealed tight.
For a moment, all in Carnage Crossing seemed right.
Magnificent galas. The waltzing dead.
A town of corpses happy in their homestead.
But darkness crept in, drawn by venom and spite,
Corrupting the island for its twisted delight.
A plague of decay sweeps over the land,
Reducing its victims to grains of sand.
To protect her people, the Corpse Queen must rise,
And gather what’s left of her crumbling allies.
Can the queen save them all from their grisly plight?
Or will she be hunted when her past comes to light?
Becca Vincenza
The final installment in The Sidekick Chronicles is here! I am stoked to announce that Becca will be here LIVE on August 26 to chat with us about her urban fantasy series and what's next for her.
If you love kickass heroines this is the series for you! I am currently reading the final book and loving it.
Kristiana Sfirlea
| Legend of the Rainbow Eater/The Stormwatch Diaries Bk 2 4 Stars Once again Kristiana Sfirlea has hit a home run. She has a talent for weaving a complex, magical, and somewhat horrifying tale of granny snatchers and killer teddy bears. Yeah, you read that right! I'm feeling relieved that at my age most of my stuffed animals are packed in a tote in the closet. Save for a few precious ones on my bookshelves, but they would never... Would they? I digress. |  |
I love that while LOTRE is a fun, adventurous, and wild ride, at the heart of it this story is about family (not just the blood ones), friends, and faith. This is the perfect series to read with your kids but is enjoyable enough for adults too. I seriously want to visit Mapleton and eat rigor mortis ice cream at the Two Parlors. Maybe minus the Scare Bears though.
Psst... Book one is on sale for 99 cents!
Kristiana will be my #FangirlThursday guest on August 5th. I interviewed her last year and it was my highest rated show ever! No pressure this time, Kristiana!

I devoured Vanessa's Heartmender Trilogy this month. Her world building skills are almost as fantastic as Eric Asher's. (And you guys know how I feel about Eric!) The prose and imaginary in this trilogy weave together to create a thrilling story of sacrifice, love, and faith.
The final book, Heartrender releases September 7th.
In the land of Barracks, the economy thrives on the barter of their citizens' most precious commodity—a human heart. Each year, the Heart Reign festival is thrown for those who have become of age to trade their hearts for their deepest desires. And this year is Adelaide Tye's year to trade.
After despising Heart Reign for years, Addie endures her Extraction and discovers that her heart isn’t gray and dying, like all other hearts in Barracks, but bright red, alive, and teeming with power.
With a warning from the extractor of hearts, Addie rushes through Heart Reign to make her choice—trade her heart to Schism, the monster who took her brother years before, or go in search of the Mender—a mythical man said to purify hearts and save her own heart. Either decision will rip her away from the one man who has always been by her side.
Knowing there is only one real choice to make, Addie jumps through Schism’s red door and is thrust into a dark and dangerous realm where she is faced with making a trade she may not survive.
For fans of Stephanie Garber's Caraval and ABC's Once Upon a Time.
