Story:

Stag and the crew of the Varnish are on a mission, responding to a distress signal of a freighter that has been attacked by the Markus Models. Instead of finding the enemy, they discover one sole survivor. Nala’s a human, and having suffered at their hands during his time on Earth, there’s no species Stag despises more. But when the petite woman confuses him for an android and tries to order him around, Stag decides she’ll live—and pay for her slights.

Nala Vestria has lost her freighter, her crew and her father, only to become personal maid to a cyborg. Stag is surly, short-tempered, and completely untrusting of humans … not to mention intense, commanding, and maybe the hottest being Nala has ever seen. When she finds him temporarily at her mercy, Nala isn’t sure if she wants to kill him or kiss him. Then again, life is short. She opts for the latter.

Nala swiftly becomes a distraction Stag can’t afford, especially after he’s had a carnal taste of what the woman has to offer. He’ll take her back to Garden, his home planet, and be rid of her — as well as the emotions she evokes. But as their journey home becomes harrowing, Nala may prove to be more of an asset than a liability. To both the ship … and the lonely cyborg who commands her.

Review:

I enjoyed this book, just like I've enjoyed every other book I've ready by Laurann Dohner. Her writing style feels unique and the stories are easy to fall into. Once I started reading it, I had to finish it.

In this story, we have Stag, who doesn't like humans. I worried the book would be similar to Zorus's book since he also was a character who didn't like humans, but the stories were nothing alike, which was great. 

I liked both Stag and Nala, but I think Maze and Hellion were my absolute favorites! I really hope Hellion gets his own book because he's so different from all the other characters Laurann has created. 

The story jumped around a little bit too much, though. First the Marcus Models, then something else, and again something else instead of following a red thread throughout the whole book. This didn't bother me much. Overall, I found this book entertaining, funny, and not too emotional. So if you're looking for something to relax to, then I highly recommend this book.

Review: Releasing Rage by Cynthia Sax

Author: Cynthia Sax

Title: Releasing Rage

Series: Cyborg Sizzle - Book 1

Beings: Cyborgs

Rating: A

Heat: Burning

Bought from: Amazon

Read book format: ebook

Story: 

Half Man. Half Machine. All Hers.

Rage, the Humanoid Alliance's most primitive cyborg, has two goals--kill all of the humans on his battle station and escape to the Homeland. The warrior has seen the darkness in others and in himself. He believes that's all he's been programmed to experience.

Until he meets Joan.

Joan, the battle station's first female engineer, has one goal--survive long enough to help the big sexy cyborg plotting to kill her. Rage might not trust her but he wants her. She sees the passion in his eyes, the caring in his battle-worn hands, the gruff emotion in his voice.

When Joan survives the unthinkable, Rage's priorities are tested. Is there enough room in this cyborg's heart for both love and revenge?

Cover:

This is a great cover that fits well with the story. I love it!

Review:

This is not a book for everyone. If you love dark romance/science fiction with a lot of graphic sex and action, then this is a book for you. Cynthia creates a tragic world in her book - for the cyborgs. They are considered nothing more but deadly killer machines and the humans don't care the slightest about how the cyborgs are treated. It is a male dominated world with primitive thinking humans. This book shows humanities worst sides, and poor Joan is in the middle of it all. She is the only woman among men, and they do everything they can to push her down. But when she is assigned to take care of a cyborg as an engineer everything changes. Rage is deadly, dangerous, and no one thinks she will survive being near him, but Joan will do everything in her power to gain Rage's trust. 

I loved this book from the first page. I would have read it from the beginning to the end if I hadn't had my work and house to take care of. This book made me feel. I laughed, cried, and cheered with the characters. This is a book I will read several times. It was well written with fantastic characters and an interesting story, but as already mentioned, it's not a book for everyone. The story is dark, evil, and a few times, things seemed hopeless, but fortunately, there was a happy ending. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

A new book is published!

Review:
This book was something new for me, something I had never encountered before, and I loved it! I wondered how the author would be able to keep so many characters apart without the reader mix them up, but she gave great descriptions of all the characters, and it was easy to follow. The writing is great, the story is interesting, and I can't wait to find out what will happen next.

Story:

The goblin king is searching for his queen, but who can love a cursed man with a heart literally made of gold? Elisa is such a woman.

Cover:

A really nice cover and it fits the story.

Review: 

This is not a bad story, but it's not a good one either, though it has potential. A little bit more of editing and I'm sure it will make a great story. Unfortunatelly the story was repeating itself a little bit too much and I don't know if it's just my Kindle, but the text was missing on several places. I didn't really experience the chemistry between the characters either.

This book was really funny! There's quite a cocky attitude between the characters and I just love it. A really entertaining book I highly recommend for anyone who wants to get a great laugh mixed with passion and action.

Story:

Justice is the leader of New species. He's a very buzy man, but also lonely. When the tough Jessie enters his life she turns everything around. Justice must make a choice - Jesse or the safety of his people.

Cover:

This cover is just ... wierd. I don't like the way the guy is presented and the background is just wrong. It looks as if it was put together within two minutes without much thought behind it.

Review:

Wow! This series is just getting better and better! I wasn't really looking forward to read Justice book, but now that I've done it I think it was just amazing. Several of the scenes was just breathtaking and there weren't that much repetitions withins this book like it was in the previous once. I really look forward to read the rest of this series!

Tammy walks by mistake into Valiant's territory, a mistake leaving her in terror and fear when the huge man-beast starts to growl and threaten her. He hates humans and will do anything to protect his home, that is until he takes a sniff of Tammy and immediately claims her as his.

Cover:

Well, the good thing is that the cover follows the series, but I still think they could look better if the text was placed differently.

Review:

So far this is the best book in the series! I just loved it! Valiant is more beast than human. He's huge and frightening while Tammy is tiny. He's very possessive of her and threatens to kill anyone who tries to take her away from him. Tammy had me wondering what she will do. Will she accept Valiant or will she run away? There are several repetitions in this book as well, but it didn't matter. I was hoocked and once I started I had to finish it.

Story:

Trisha is the doctor at Homeland, the place where the New species live. Ever since she saved Slade's life she can't get him out of her head, but he doesn't even remember her. 

Cover:

Similiar cover to the first book. I don't think the guy's expression fits to this story. He would have fitted better to the cover of the third book. 

Review:

This book was a little bit slow in the beginning and even if it made me feel, just like the first one, I found it also a little bit irritating. I'm not fond of reading about severe missunderstandings between characters, but luckely things turned out alright. Through and through this is a great second book to this series, even if there are a lot of repetitions.

Cover:

A regular cover for erotic books, but I think it could have looked better if the text was placed differently.

Review:

This book made me really feel. I felt with the characters throughout the entire book. I smiled, laughed, worried and almost even cried. Laurann has a way with words and I like her writing. It also felt like a very unique story. The only backside was the dialogs. There were many repetitions, making me feel like I sometimes read an essay, but it didn't matter. The story was great, though this is not a book for everyone. Warning for rough scenes!

Cover: 

There are several different covers for this series. This one I like the most.

Review:

I didn't get hooked at once when I started to read this book, but after about 100 pages I was stuck. The vampires in this series are different, more religious than vampires in other series, but still warriors who fight for the good. The backside with this book was that it felt like I've read it before. Many of the sceens felt like classic vampire sceens.

I just love this cover! One of the best I've seen.

Review:

I looked forward to read this book and I did like it, but at the same time it felt like I was reading an action movie. The main characters were on the run, attacked from time to time, before the fled again, just like in many action movies. It was a very simple, but good writing, no unnecessary details. Lash felt more like a human than an angel, and even if things went a little slow the story worked and the so did the characters.

Cover:

I love this cover! Gentle colors and romantic, only Koldos beard is missing. 

Review:

I enjoyed reading this book, but at the same time it felt like I was just waiting for it to start. The story felt a little bit weak and some of the sceens could have been improved. I didn't experience the chemistry between the charecters as much as I would have liked to either, but at the same time Koldo felt like a strong character. Nicola on the other hand faithed a little bit too much, but through and trough it was a good book.

Cover:

Very beautiful and steamy cover, but it's misleading because the book is more sensual than hot. 

Review:

The first thing that comes to mind after reading this book is that the title is wrong. It doesn't fit the story. Part from that this is one of the best books I've read. Difficult to put down, great characters, awesome chemestry between them and I just love the way Gena writes. Even if the book is dark and violent there's humor as well. I find myself laughing quite a lot.

Review:

I have so far not read a book from Felicity Heaton that I haven't enjoyed. This one was difficult to put away and it gave me several surprises when the story didn't go they way I expected it to. The backside is the lack of dialog and way too long descriptions that sometimes made me lose interest. But part from that I highly recommend this bok!

Review: 

This book is definitely one of the best I've read, even if it's short. Not much happens, and the story is a little bit boring, but that doesn't bother me at all. It's all about the emotions in this story and that keeps me hooked. The author has a great writing style!

Cover: 

Very nice cover. I really like the colors!

Review:

After reading the first two books in this series I just had to read the third. Yet again the writing is great and the story captured me. Ashur is a very interesting character and you sometimes can't tell which side his on, which makes it even more exiting. But I didn't feel the connection between Ashur and Claire like I did between the characters in the first two books.

Cover:

This cover is different from the other two in the series. I would have prefered that the author sticked to the theme. At least the colors are the same, and it's not a bad cover. 

Review:

When I started to read this one I didn't really know what to expect, concidering that the first book was just amazing! But this one didn't let me down either. Elisabeth shows again that she's a great author.
