Stardust Destiny (Stardust Love Story Book 1) By: Nazarea Andrews Published: February 7, 2016 by A&A Literary 165 pages Source: Personal Kindle Library   ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: The face that launched a thousand ships...   I grew up knowing my destiny. Daddy pounded it in my head, my brother repeated it every day of my life. I was the only daughter of the Orsi crime syndicate, the pretty prize that would bring peace. My one job was to marry Callum Sheehan, the vicious head of the Irish mob in Chicago.  I never questioned my future–until I saw him.  The man who was never meant to love her…   I wasn’t going to the wedding. It’s crap that my brother does, things our father requires of the heir of the Sosa cartel. Not me. I’m the black sheep, the one Mama spoiled, and my father loves, but without the pressure of expectation. But Sheehan is too big a deal for me to blow off.  And then I see her.  The love that started...

The Blood Scion (The Scion Legacy #1) By: Nazarea Andrews Published: November 21, 2015 by A&A Literary 186 pages Source: Personal Kindle library ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: I was just a reporter, trying to stay ahead of my student loans. I knew the rules, and I followed them.  I thought I knew how the world worked—humans lived their petty little lives in the safety of the sun. We loved and fought and—when the sun sank—we scurried behind our walls and lived in fear. That is when the monsters came out to play.  And even in the safety of the sun, we knew who ruled us.  The Houses. And their Scions.  Everyone knows the great Houses and their Scions—they are feared and loved and hated and envied. They are the gods who walk the shadows and rule all of our lives. They are salvation and death.  And somehow, I am one of them. MY REVIEW: There are 12 vampire houses which are the 12 vampire lines, each house with a patriarch and then...

The Scionless House (The Scion Legacy 0.5) By: Nazarea Andrews Published: October 30, 2015 by A&A Literary 62 pages Source: Personal Kindle library ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: Twelve Houses. Twelve vampire lines. We ruled from the shadows, and manipulated the world, and when humans came too close to destruction, we intervened.  Every House has a Scion. A fragile, easily broken human that stood shoulder to shoulder with the house Princes and Princesses.  Except for ours. The Ravens, House Cantelie.  We've been without a Scion for almost fifteen years.  But that will change...and her life will be mine to protect. MY REVIEW: For a freebie novella, which was recommended to read before reading book one in the series, this short 62 pages was enough to wet my appetite in the vampire genre again. As the Goodreads summary says, there are 12 vampire houses which are the 12 vampire lines, each house with a patriarch and then a hierarchy of...

This week I'm waiting on: Personal Apocalypse by Nazarea Andrews Expected Publication: March 2016 Preorder Buy Link: Not Available at time of posting Josiah grew up in a dying world.  The Holdout survived, but when you are the son of Sylvia Cragen, you give up delusions early. He knew that they would die bloody--it wasn't a matter of if. Only when.  Parker shouldn't be alive.  He should have died long before scouts from the Last Holdout rescued him. And he knows better than to believe that sailing away from the safety of the Holdout is a good idea.  Now, without the Holdout to protect them, all of his nightmares are coming true. Josiah is just crazy enough to believe that a fresh start is a good thing. But Parker has lived as prey, hunted by zombies and survivors before--and he knows th...

The Ruin of the World (The World Without End #4) By: Nazarea Andrews Published: May 11, 2015 202 pages Source: Personal Kindle Library ( Goodreads / Amazon ) Summary: When the zombies rose, we thought the world ended. It didn’t—it just broke, in a way we couldn’t fix. And we found ways to continue, reasons to fight.  Faith. Family. Politics. Obsession. The most dangerous of all— hope .  But when all of that is stripped away, and nothing remains but rage and betrayal—that is the true end of the world.  Return to the World Without End, for a final battle for hope and survival in the exciting conclusion to Nazarea Andrews’ phenomenal series. MY REVIEW: This installment picks up 4 months after the end of book 3's events. Finn is, by force, leading an army into the East as he is being coerced by Omar, a Black Priest, who is head over the Order. Finn will fight and lead the army as long as Omar continues to give Nurrin the medicine she needs to slow down...
