BLURB

Princess. Warrior. Dragon Shifter. Huntress.

When it comes to protecting her family, eighteen-year-old Princess Huntress is known for kicking ass, taking names and then kicking a little more ass, just to be sure. She’s the last of her kind—a glass dragon shifter—and no matter what the threat, Huntress always tracks it down solo.

Then Huntress meets the leader of the L’Griffe crime family, Gage Beaufort, who is a dashing dragon shifter with a knee-melting stare. The attraction is instant, yet Huntress hates it. Why? Crime syndicates hurt royal authority, which means they threaten her family. Long story short, being with Gage is just wrong. Besides Huntress already has a rock-solid life plan, and that’s to fight alone, forever. No relationships, thank you very much.

But when a new danger threatens the royals, everything changes.

Now Huntress needs a mercenary army and fast, so she forges an alliance with L’Griffe. To protect those she loves, Huntress agrees to marry someone she loathes: Gage Beaufort. But will the extra help be enough?

Even worse, Huntress’ family isn’t the only thing at risk–the same is true for the princess’ heart. Because Gage is a man who always gets what he wants. In this case, the crime lord desires Princess Huntress, body and soul.

“With Angelbound Offspring, every page is entertaining… an exciting story that unfolds with magic, dragons, a little romance and a villain to despise.” – Tonja, Goodreads

Perfect for readers seeking a clean fantasy adventure in the spirit of omegaverse romance

The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . HUNTRESS (Angelbound Offsprings, #7) . . . I was not ready for this unleashing of Huntress. Now, let me get this out of the way. I loved, loved, loved seeing more of Portia, Kaps, Mack, and a few others. Huntress was everything I could dream of to add to the series of Angelbound Offspring. As always, for me anyway, Christina slammed dunked the world she built. The visual her words cause allows for the picture to play clearly across your mind as you are reading each sentence, paragraph, page, chapter. The delight of being able to make the picture feel so real. I felt fully engaged from the beginning of the first sentence. 

Huntress brought it on all the way. You get a strong female that loves her family. She was determined to be alone and fight the same way. She was even more determined to protect her family no matter the sacrifice.

Be ready for the things that unfold within the pages of Huntress. Be ready for the fantastically visual world. Be ready for Huntress and Gage.

READ-2-REVIEW - CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE - THE WICKED AFTERMATH (The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside, #2) by Melissa Foster

 THE WICKED AFTERMATH
The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside
by Melissa Foster
Releasing June 9th 2021
World Literary Press

 

BLURB

When the person you blame for your grief is the only one who can save you from the pain…


Tank Wicked lost his sister and has since vowed to save everyone else in his path. He lives by the creed of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, sworn to protect and respect his community. He selflessly saves lives as a volunteer firefighter and treats the men and women who work for him at his tattoo shop like family. But life isn’t a balance scale where good deeds negate bad things to come, and one foggy night life guts Tank once again. When a car careens over the side of a bridge and into a river, Tank springs into action, plunging into the water to rescue the passengers. Four people go into the river, but only three come out alive.


Leah Yates is just trying to make it through each day. When the man she blames for her grief becomes the only one who can pull her from the depths of despair, she discovers that even hope comes at a price. Maybe this time she won’t have to face it alone.


THE WICKED AFTERMATH is an emotionally gripping story of love, loss, and hope, with a rich and entrancing happily ever after. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, the Wickeds feature fiercely protective heroes, strong heroines, and unbreakable family bonds. If you think bikers are all the same, you haven’t met the Dark Knights. The Dark Knights are a motorcycle club, not a gang. Their members stick together like family and will stop at nothing to keep their communities safe. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun and deeply emotional, others will tear at your heartstrings and include injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as standalone romances.

The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . THE WICKED AFTERMATH (The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside, #2) . . . When it comes to Melissa Foster and the heroes that she write, you should not be amazed you fall in love with each one for a different reason. Tank Wicked has been the one hero that I have wanted to see more about since the first time he was introduced to me in the Bayside series. Just from that brief encounter with him then. Showed there was something more about him. Having the patience to wait for his story was hard. Tank was not just another sexy, strong man. He was a man that has experienced a deep loss that changed his entire world. He was hard working, protective, strong, determined, and hurting. His counterpart was Leah and she was confused. I found her to be angry with Tank, but attracted to him at the same time. I would not call this an enemies to lovers. I would call this a complicated love match.
Once again Melissa Foster delivers a since of family, pride, respect, friends(ship), community, and an emotional component that have you thinking and relating it to something real. Looking for an engaging read that will touch your emotions, have you experience loss, love, bonding, and give you a couple that works to make it work. Then you need to pick up The Wicked Aftermath. Tank's story was a long time coming and it was so worth it. The depth of his story draws you further into the world of the Wicked's and the Dark Knight family.
