Kasper has the unique ability to see if someone is telling the truth just by touching them. Her world is destroyed when her parents are killed and she knows who’s responsible. When she meets the mysterious Victor and James, it’s like meeting her soul mates. But danger isn’t far away. Can they keep her safe and claim her heart?

Did I ever mention how much I love twists on mythology? The Heroes of Olympus series by April Zyon really fills that category. There’s a great deal of twists, turns and details that make me really feel like I’m in this world. I love the drama in Kasper’s life because it feels so real. Victor and James are so damn sexy. I love how they interacted with Kasper. Together, the three of them really heated up the pages. The romance did happen quickly, though. I would have loved to them to get to know each other a bit more before all the sexiness happened.

Fatal Truths is another great addition to the series and I can’t wait to read more!

Rating: 5 Stars - A Must Read!

Heat: 4/5 - Smoking Hot!

Let me start off by saying, I love greek mythology. Love it! Hercules, Xena, ect, loved them. When I read the blurb for this book, I was intrigued. Then I found out it has to do with the God Ares being the leader of twelve sexy men trying to keep Hades in the underworld. Say what?! *grabby hands*

First Contact has to deal with two of these soldiers, Wolf and Gunner, meeting the love of their lives and having to rescue her. Romantic suspense anyone? Give me some of that! Oh, oh, did I mention the piercings? *thud*

Wolf and Gunner, if I have to choose…I’d be forever stumped. They’re both gorgeous, badasses and I want one of each please. So. Freaking. Hot! Camilla is the kindergarten teacher that’s attacked by…wait for it…werewolves. Odd but okay, I’ll work with that. If there are Gods why can’t their be werewolves? Once the trio meet it’s a fabulous balance of romance and action. I love how the plot comes together and the sex is so damn yummy. I cannot wait to read the next book!

First Contact is a new paranormal, greek mythology, sexy series by the talented April Zyon. A must read!

Family First #2

Author: April Zyon

Length: Novel

Genre: Romance, Contemporary, Romantic Suspense

TBR Reviewer: Bella Star

Rating: 5 Stars - A Must Read!

Heat: 4/5 - Smoking Hot!

We’re back in the dangerous shadows of the mafia in His Killing Princess. Antonio and Emily are star crossed lovers who have gone from enemies to lovers but can they survive when a traitor is discovered?

First of all, I love the cover. Gorgeous! Second, this book is even better than the first in the series. Antonio and Emily have great chemistry. The sexual tension in the air is enough to make my hair stand on end. Love it! The story itself is really great too. There’s suspense mixed with sex and a lot of lies. There is so much happening in this book and it balances perfectly with our main characters. If you love romantic suspense, this book is perfect for you.

His Killing Princess is a wild ride with engaging characters that you have to read!

REVIEW: A Mate for the Sheriff by April Zyon

Title: A Mate for the Sheriff

Shifters-Match.com

Author: April Zyon

Length: Novel

Genre: Romance, Paranormal, Shifter

TBR Reviewer: Bella Star

Rating: 4 Stars - Highly Recommended Read!

Heat: 4/5 - Smoking Hot!

Jessica is hiding. Sheriff Novak is watching. After years of waiting, they’re thrust together and forced to deal with their problems or crumble under them.

I like shifters stories. This book has a good dose of romance and a nice suspense to it. There are shifters, covens and sexy sheriff uniforms (Yum). This is book four in the series and I think you can enjoy it as a standalone. Jessica and Novak’s romance is really hot but also very sweet. I like them a lot and was rooting for their happy ending. Overall, a good story in another shifter world.

If you love shifters, try A Mate for the Sheriff by April Zyon!

Quinn is in witness protection and the man she’s hiding from just broke out of prison. Piran is the sexy shifter that browsed the website Shifter-Match.com and found her. But with her dangerous past ruin their future before it’s even begun.

Oh, romantic suspense and adding in paranormal shifters. GIVE ME THIS BOOK NOW! *happily opens email and finds it* Quinn is completely and utterly adorable. I felt her fear and hope. It makes for an edge of your seat read. Piran is just as likable. I really fell for them and their wonderful chemistry. The shifter bits are fun but not my favorite. Maybe because I’ve been reading so many shifter books lately? I went into this book for the romantic suspense aspect and I am not disappointed. This story is exciting and the sex is fabulous! I know it says light BDSm but I thought it is the perfect amount. Enough to get you all hot and bothered but not where you challenge your comfort zone.

The Jaguar’s Mate is highly recommended read!

Oh, a mafia romance! I haven’t read one of these in a while. Gregorio has no problem living in his dark world of killing. His one ray of light is Alessandra and when she’s kidnapped, he will do anything to get her back unharmed.

Hello dark and dirty! This book really hits those marks. I like how dark Gregorio is but also that with Alessandra he seems to grow and open up. It makes for great character development. Alessandra is a little more naive and clueless about the world around her. Once she does find out, I find it comes of realistic and I fell for her too. As the plot unfolds these two come together in smoking hot sex. Yeah, very hot. Yeah, very sexy. This is the first book in the Family First series and I’m looking forward to the next!

His Mafia Princess, is dark and dirty in all the right places!

This is the first anthology in a long time where I hadn’t read any of the authors previously. I enjoyed these stories a lot. The writing styles were all different, as were the shifters and situations in the stories. All of the authors wrote great characters and entertaining stories. I recommend this anthology, I found new authors to follow and so will you!

REVIEW: His Undercover Lover by April Zyon

1/26/2015

Title: His Undercover Lover

Author: April Zyon

Length : 84 pages

Genres: Contemporary Romance / Romantic Suspense

TBR Reviewer: Victoria

Rating: 3 Stars - A Good Read

Heat: 2/5 - Flirty

Megan is an undercover DEA agent trying to finish up the case she’s been undercover on for five+ years. Her current watcher (she’s a stripper, and there’s always another agent/law enforcement type on hand just in case when she’s stripping) has moved on, and he’s been replaced by Simon. Both have felt an attraction, though never said or even acknowledged it. Until they get teamed up and have to act as a couple, to give Simon a reason to be on hand while she’s stripping. One kiss and they’re all over each other.

Strangely, I actually bought into the (for the story) insta-lust, because it was established that they’d been attracted for months already. The plot moved quickly and I enjoyed Megan bringing down the bad guys. This book dropped to a three-star rating because of the long ending. It was so slow moving. Thirty percent of this book was after that point. But the plot, while it was there, was good. I enjoyed His Undercover Lover.
