One night destroyed everything.

Lindsey’s heart.

Karma’s body.

Her hopes for the future are shattered.

His purpose in the Black Hoods MC is unclear.

They thought they could weather any storm as long as they had each other. But some storms are too powerful. And some loves aren’t as strong as they may seem.

My Thoughts:

I was ecstatic when this book hit my e-reader.  I love it when these two authors create the next book in this series – it’s going to be a great ride.  But you may want to skip their Dedication.  There’s a slight hint about the ending – I know, you’re going to look anyway.

Lindsey starts us off with lots of heat.  But then it gets very real and it may be a shock to the system.  Karma is trying to control the train wreck that may be coming.  Wondering what that outcome may be is what makes this a page-turner.  It certainly has a sense of realism and you will have no trouble having scenes play out in your head.

The authors were good in creating a character you will want to give comfort to.  It may get a little emotional so having tissue close at hand might be a good idea.  Karma may need a good swift kick and you can go ahead and do that while I stand far off on the sidelines.  We get a lot of secondary characters here and I almost felt like I had to go back and read the first three books since it’s been a while since I last read book three of the series.

I think you would be ok if you wanted to start the series here but some of the cast of characters start off from book one.  It will only take you a few hours per book so you could have a read-a-thon in order to play catch up.  This is more than a romantic mc read.  We have some mystery, some action, and some suspense that helps to carry things along.  Our authors never disappoint and that certainly was the case here.  Hint of book five is seen and I can’t wait.

Social Butterfly PR Presents: Vampire by Rebecca Zanetti; #BlogTour, #NowAvailable, #OutNow, #TBR, #Live, #Review

Vampire, an all-new steamy paranormal 1,001 Dark Nights novella in the Dark Protectors/Rebels series from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Zanetti is available now!

Rating:  4.5 Stars

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book for review from Social Butterfly PR and the author. I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am posting this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising".

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Zanetti comes a new story in her Dark Protectors/Rebels series…

Dr. Mariana Lopez has finally stopped bailing friends out of difficult situations. Well, except for substituting as the leader for another anger management group, pitching in as a campaign strategist for a prospective sheriff, and babysitting three dogs. Even with such a full life, she can feel the danger around her—a sense that something isn’t right. Nightmares harass her, until the real thing comes to life, and only the dark and sexy male sitting in her group can save her. However, with safety comes a price she might not be willing to pay.

Raine Maxwell is one of the Maxwells out of Montana, which means he's not only one of the most deadly vampires alive, but his path is set and his mate has been chosen for him. To save him—to continue his line. Unfortunately, his mate is an enhanced human female who has no idea of her abilities, of his species, or of her future. He’d like to lead her gently into this new world, but his people aren’t the only ones who’ve found her, which puts her into more danger than she can imagine. Plus, in order to follow his laws, he only has one week to convince her that immortality with him is what she wants—and needs.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

My Thoughts:

Mariana has a hard time at hiding in plain sight.  Raine has reasons why he needs to hide who he is.  The author does a good job at creating stupid characters.  And she also does a good job in making them so believable.

This was a book with a good mix of our real world and a world that may or may not actually exist.  The book showcases what’s so good about reading fiction.  In fiction, anything is possible.  It’s where an author’s creativity shines and that’s so true with this author.  She packs a big punch in a short amount of pages.

Even though this is considered a standalone, it’s just a teaser for the reader.  Hopefully it will pique your interest to see what the rest of the author’s series is about.  Especially if you like something that’s more than straight romance.  You’ll get a little suspense, a little action, a little fantasy, and a little somethin’ somethin’.  Sad part was that it was over too quickly but the next book is just around the corner.

Excerpt:

Mariana tried to swallow and wet her suddenly dry throat. Having him near was too much for her libido, and if the guy had any idea of the dreams he’d starred in lately, he’d probably blush. Well, maybe. Something told her that Raine didn’t blush. “Why did you leave town?” she asked.

One of his brows arched. How could a freakin' eyebrow look sexy? “The job was done.”

Ouch. Okay. Well, then. He’d only been there for the job of watching Ivar and Noah. “Then why did you come back?” She looked away from him.

His sigh was long-suffering and didn’t tell her a thing. “That’s a long story, and I can’t go into it.”

“Seriously?” She whipped around to face him. “Are you kidding me? You show up on my porch, get kidnapped, admit you were in my group under false pretenses, take off for Montana, and then return without being able to explain why? Oh, I don’t think so. Either you start talking right now or you get the heck out of my house.” The place already seemed smaller and somehow safer with him in it, but she knew better than to start depending on him. He’d be gone again soon.

His eyes flared in a way that didn’t even look human. “I’m out of here the second we find this guy.”

Yikes. Okay. That hurt a little bit. She’d thought she’d gotten an interested vibe from him a couple of times, but maybe she’d misread him? He was the sexiest man she’d ever been this close to in real life, so maybe he went for perfection like Tabi Rusko? Mariana was fine with her curves and looks, but maybe she’d overestimated Raine’s interest when he’d thrown Johnny Baker up against the wall after the kid had insulted her. “I think you should leave.”

“No.” 

Heat flashed up her spine to tingle at her nape. “No? Are you joking?”

“No.” He cocked his head, watching her.

She had the strongest urge to punch him again, but her wrist still ached from last time. The guy had abs of solid rock. “I don’t think you’re understanding me,” she gritted out.

He moved toward her without warning, pivoting and putting her back against the wall. “You’re not understanding me.” His big body loomed over her, and an unexpected heat rolled off him.

Grace Halfpenny has devoted her entire life to her career as a social worker. Always playing by the rules. Always going all in. Falling in love is the last thing Grace had time for.

Eugene “Judge” Grant is the president of the Black Hoods MC. A hardass son of a bitch, thanks to the scars of his past. Love is the last thing Judge believed in.

Two people on two very different paths.

Until...

Two kids, orphaned and alone with a past that mirrored Judges’ own, come along, not only needing him, but Grace too.And when the kids’ dark past comes looking for them, Grace and Judge must put their differences aside in order to save them.

My Thoughts:

The Dedication will put a smile on your face. 

 

Grace has a tough job – you can’t please everyone.  It also doesn’t make her happy.  Judge has you thinking he’s an honorable man in one breath and in the next you’re thinking hound dog.  I loved the good chuckle I got from their first meeting.  I think you might enjoy it as well. 

 

Was also happy to see that this isn’t an insta-love story.  Loved the push and pull to see who will come out on top – it will be interesting to see who actually wins the war.  Our authors do a great job of stoking the flame when our couple ends up not fighting for the space at the top. 

 

There’s just the right amount of suspense to grab my attention.  How can I ever find the perfect stopping point when I can’t even stop saying “one more page”.  I keep wanting to see what’s coming next.  If I stop then what will I miss if I don’t turn that page.  The hardest part for me out of this whole thing was having enough patience to wait after finishing book two and finally getting my hands on this latest in the series. Our authors show that it was worth the wait. 

 

While enjoying this book, I don’t sit and try and figure out what Ms. Paige or Ms. Glenn contributed.  They give their readers something unexpected in the Epilogue.  Usually that’s reserved for the main characters’ happy ending.  Not here – we get a sneak peek into who the next book is about.  That was a smart move because it gets the reader excited about book four of the Black Hoods MC.
