  The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by  Caffeinated Book Reviewer .  It's a chance to share news: a post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books,   and share what's coming up on your blog in the week ahead.                         This Week It rained all day Monday. It was much needed here. It made me want to stay in bed all day. But that was not possible. The terrible part was we were back into the low 90's/ upper 80's a day later.  We got gently used couches this week. The amount of dust, debris, and legos under there was embarrassing. Once we cleared that up, we moved the new couches in. My arms were sore the next day.  Thankfully I got through my ARC/TBR. But I decided to post three of my book reviews next week. I tried watching a few Halloween movies this week and didn't actually sit down and watch anything until this weekend. I started with Halloween. Naturally. Totally...

  He will burn. She will rise. Airk Azdajah, the rightful King of the White Clan, spent half a millennium being tortured by the false High King Pytheios. The only reason he’s alive is a curse— the man to kill Airk will be consumed in his own fire. Which is why Pytheios kept Airk alive, barely, unable to shift in his prison cage, driving the creature half of him into madness. Airk escaped, but he’ll never be truly free. What good is a king who can never let his feral dragon loose, never fly, and never lead his people? He’s better off dead. Angelika Amon is the last unmated phoenix. The problem? She has no powers. Zip. Zilch. Angelika hates being dormant, especially now that her three sisters are blissfully mated to powerful dragon shifter kings and are very much part of the fight to take down the rotting king Pytheios, their parents’ killer. What good is a useless runt of a phoenix in a battle to save the dragon kingdom? Desperate to find some way to help, she offers herself to Airk...

  All Lady Victoria Kirby wants is to dig in the dirt, take notations, and record history, thank you very much. Bumbling through ballrooms and getting disdained by the  ton  for her less than ideal looks, on the other hand, is the last thing she wants. But her reckless father has a different idea for her future when he puts up the ultimate ante—her hand in marriage—and loses. Over her dead body. The Duke of Chase cannot bear to see a woman misused. After all, he saw that often enough as a child. So when he’s witness to a marquess gambling away his daughter to a lecher of a man, he has no choice but to step in and rescue her. Lady Victoria has a reputation for being as tart as a lemon and as bitter as one, too. So, he may have just found the perfect wife to keep a promise he made to himself long ago—to never have an heir. With her, surely, he'll never be tempted to take her to bed and break that promise. But when he meets the wild, witty, intelligent, young lady he’s bound...

A year later, I finally see him splashed all over the internet...

  Title: Nightshade Author: Keri Lake Genre: Dark Gothic Paranormal Romance Release Date: October 29, 2021 BLURB My father called them messengers. He once told me they walked among us, and that somewhere in this dark and godless city, there shined a faint sliver of hope. I had only to look for the signs. Well, I’ve spent my whole life investigating the inexplicable, and all I've found are the unsettling vestiges of iniquity - the evidence of another world shrouded by the obscure. Purgatory to some, where depravity hides in shadows, and girls like me are little more than delicious bites of temptation. Others call it Nightshade. This peculiar place is where I first met the cold and callous recluse living in a decaying cliffside cathedral. Jericho Van Croix is the epitome of everything I’ve been told to fear. A raven-winged harbinger who wears intrigue like a warm black cloak. An enigma that I’m determined to unravel – even if it means getting closer than I should. One touch...

What’s his problem? “Like me?” He touches my arm with the tip of his fingers and slides them gently down my skin. My flesh ripples with warmth and panic. “Like I’m your friend.” His palm moves over my hip and up my dress.  I swallow down the knot still lodged in my throat. “No. Not like you.”  “Good.” He slips a finger beneath my G-string. “What are you doing?” I don’t want him to stop, but my conscience resists.  “I’m going to give the birthday girl her present.” He drags my panties down around my thighs. The tips of his fingers glide upward. “Do you want it?”  I tilt my head back against the fence and gaze up into his dark and daring eyes. I should stop him from...
