Reviewer: Cia

Tagline: Her biggest mistake will save him and her destiny will be fulfilled in the arms of an Ancient Vampire

Blurb/Summary:

There are no mistakes only destiny waiting to be fulfilled. Awakened by the blood of the one woman destined to be his. Ethan escapes, determined to claim Aria as his own and seek revenge on those who have imprisoned him for over two hundred years. Giving him blood is one thing, but losing her heart to an ancient vampire is another. Aria will fight his possession every step the way.

Review:

Destined Hearts was packed full of action, suspense and vampires. The beginning was a bit slow, but a few pages in I was hooked. I felt for Aria and her need to do something against her ideals to provide a better life for her. Misguided, when she was led into danger, I truly felt meeting Ethan was by divine fate, even if not pleasant at the time. I enjoyed how stubborn she was and the glimpses of her upbringing, showing how she ticked. She had a ton of strength that fit well with our Hero Ethan.

Ethan might’ve thought himself a monster, but not of his own making. Circumstances do not make the man, I was tickled at his confusion and felt it matched his confusion with the current date. He adapted rather quickly and it was great to see the predator could acclimate to his surroundings and bring himself up to date quickly. He had a hard journey ahead of him to exact revenge and take his rightful place back in his family.

The passion in this story was white hot and I enjoyed the displays of intimacy that grew as the story deepened. In the end it was great to see some answers given for questions Aria had stemming from her childhood. I can’t wait to read the next story of these sexy intriguing males and their heroines.

Reviewer: Stacey Krug

Tagline: In the land of the Kell, can one woman save an entire race from extinction? And find love in the arms of the Kings Commander?

Blurb/Summary:

A war has left his people on the brink of extinction; Drystan Commander of the King's Warriors will turn to any means necessary to save his people.

Jane, an ordinary woman of Earth, falls into the strange land of muscle bound, sword wielding men, unlike she has ever seen and what's worse they seem to want her!

Could this woman be the savior of their people? Savior or not Drystan knows what he wants, and he wants Jane.

As the passion starts to sizzle evil forces threaten to tear them apart, can Drystan hold onto the woman not only he needs but his people?

Review:

Blue Fire will have you glued to the pages. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. The story is creative and will spark your imagination. However, the editing is a bit distracting and needs to be fine tuned.

The love story between Drystan and Jane is entrancing and will leave you wanting more. It’s hard not to fall in love with the courageous and smart Jane and the tough but soft-hearted Drystan. Blue Fire is filled with action in and out of the bedroom.

Even though the premise for the story is sad, there is much humor between these pages. Angela Castle did all Earth women, especially not a size zero, a great service when creating her character Jane and the Kell women.

Angela Castle leaves room in the storyline for future visits to this new world. I am looking forward to the next storyline that is set up at the end of the book and will be checking back on this author and her creations.

This is a great read for any science fiction romance fans.
