Claimed by her Cougar (Cougar Creek Mates Shifter Romance Series Book 1)
by Felicity Heaton
28th July 2018
Having lost his parents and mate in a brutal attack on his cougar shifter pride by a hunter organisation, Rath burns with a need to keep humans off his land and out of his life. He’ll do whatever it takes to protect his pride from them, but when a lone female wanders into his territory, it isn’t a burning need to drive her away he’s feeling and it isn’t his pride that needs protecting—it’s his heart.

Down on her luck, Ivy follows a lead to a spot where she hopes to photograph black bears, but what she discovers there is a mountain of a man who lacks manners and seems determined to drive her off his property—a man who stirs unbidden fire in her veins and a strange sense of home.

With a pride gathering on the verge of happening at Cougar Creek and the air charged with a mating heat, the last thing Rath needs is a human on his land, especially one as beautiful and alluring as Ivy, one who rouses a fierce need to fight for her, but he can’t convince himself to let her go… and that proves dangerous for them both.

In the wake of an Archangel attack on Cougar Creek, Storm is seething with a need for revenge against the hunter organisation and the key to it might be the petite blonde mortal he’s locked in his cabin, one he’s determined to make sing for him. Only the beauty has a fiery temperament to match his own, and the more time he spends with her, the more she stokes a fire inside him. One that fills him with a startling and undeniable need to make her sing in another way—in his arms.

Gabriella isn’t going to take her captivity lying down. She’s going to give the pig-headed brute holding her against her will hell until he finally believes she’s innocent. He might be a cougar shifter, but she isn’t afraid of him. Or at least she isn’t afraid of what he is. The way he affects her, the flames that lick through her whenever they’re close, terrifies her though, because the longer she’s around the towering sexy-as-sin shifter, the hotter that fire blazes, and it’s only a matter of time before it burns away all her restraint.

With the mating heat and the attack bringing cougars back to the creek, Gabriella is a complication Storm doesn’t need, but she’s one that he wants… because she might just be his one true mate.

Madness is sweeping through Cougar Creek, and Flint wants no part of it. The fever has two of his brothers in love already, and Flint is damned if he’s giving up the bachelor life to tie himself to one female, but when a perimeter sweep has him running into an exotic and enthralling beauty who rouses his instincts as a cougar shifter and a male, the hunt is on.

All Yasmin is interested in is making sure her friend, Ivy, is safe, but the alluring black-haired man with a wicked smile she meets on the path to the creek has her thinking about other things. When an incident at Cougar Creek leads to her revealing a secret, and Flint’s persistence pushes her to a rash decision, her entire world is in danger of being turned upside down.

With the gathering in full swing, and males determined to prove their worth to Yasmin, Flint discovers he’s not immune to the madness sweeping through the creek, because he’ll do whatever it takes to claim victory and win Yasmin’s heart… no matter how dangerous it is.

For the last twenty years, Cobalt has burned with a need of one female, a beautiful raven-haired cougar who captured his heart the moment he set eyes on her. His position as pride protector has been a blessing at past mating gatherings, keeping females away, but this time it feels like the worst of curses, because the female who has bewitched him so thoroughly is taking part for the first time and all he can do is watch as males battle for her.

As much as she hates the way her mother controls everything in her life, Ember is thankful for it as she constantly turns away suitors, unaware of the pain she’s sparing Ember from with every male she rejects. Every male who isn’t the gorgeous blond with darkness in his eyes and an easy smile she burns for with an intensity that scares her, awakens feelings in her that have her verging on doing something reckless. Damaged goods he might be, dangerous and unpredictable, but with every contest over her that pulls her closer to her doom, she grows more determined to follow her heart, no matter the consequences.

With every fight over the right to Ember, the tethers on Cobalt’s feelings twist and threaten to snap, a torment he cannot bear and one that has him willing to risk it all, because a single kiss would make even the harshest punishment worth it. He would die for one moment with her… his fated mate.

Amanda Jones Guest Post: From the diary of Satan... (Dark Angel book tour) + giveaway


From the diary of Satan – Supreme Sheolic Overlord, Emperor of the 666 Legions, Source of all Evil. 

Dear Diary

Today was a pretty average day – there were a few light tortures in the morning, followed by lunch with Famine, and a game of chess with War. Checked in on Death this afternoon – he has quite a lovely prisoner in his lair… haven’t seen Pestilence around today – he’s had a nasty bout of the flu – note to self – bring him a Tupperware of chicken soup.

This evening I spent a few hours chillin’ in my office with some music – still trying to master the N’Sync “Bye Bye Bye” puppet dance – I’d like to have it ready for the Sheolic talent contest – I know just which prisoners to string up next to me as props! There’s no business like show business!

Had the castle’s mage work a spell to enhance our WiFi signal. I plan to take over the Twitterverse by morning! Straight from Sheol into your homes via @theonetruesatan!!! I must remember to take some cute videos of my re-animated kitty Pookie Pie for upload…those humans love their cat videos.

My butler had our resident mage design me a new RPG game for my PS4! Can’t wait to decimate those dirty angels in the virtual world AND the real world.

I guess that’s all for now – I do have an underworld to run! ‘Til tomorrow dear diary!

Satan – slayer of real AND virtual angels, dancer extraordinaire!

P.S. I had my minions do the Harlem Shake – video got over 100 likes!!!

P.P.S. People seem to think my social media accounts are marketing ploys for some new movie release…what the Sheol!

Book Review: The Invisible Library (The Invisible Library Novel) by Genevieve Cogman

The Invisible Library (The Invisible Library Novel)
by Genevieve Cogman
June 14th 2016 by Roc
Pages: 352
Collecting books can be a dangerous prospect in this fun, time-traveling, fantasy adventure from a spectacular debut author.

One thing any Librarian will tell you: the truth is much stranger than fiction...

Irene is a professional spy for the mysterious Library, a shadowy organization that collects important works of fiction from all of the different realities. Most recently, she and her enigmatic assistant Kai have been sent to an alternative London. Their mission: Retrieve a particularly dangerous book. The problem: By the time they arrive, it's already been stolen.

London's underground factions are prepared to fight to the death to find the tome before Irene and Kai do, a problem compounded by the fact that this world is chaos-infested—the laws of nature bent to allow supernatural creatures and unpredictable magic to run rampant. To make matters worse, Kai is hiding something—secrets that could be just as volatile as the chaos-filled world itself.

Now Irene is caught in a puzzling web of deadly danger, conflicting clues, and sinister secret societies. And failure is not an option—because it isn’t just Irene’s reputation at stake, it’s the nature of reality itself...

FEATURING BONUS MATERIAL: including an interview with the author, a legend from the Library, and more!


Review by Denise B

The Library is a shadow organization that collects important books from alternate realities. Sometimes the jobs are easy, in and out and no one even knew that Irene had been there. Other times, like this time, the jobs are complicated and dangerous. 

Irene is assigned a person to mentor named Kai and their assignment is to go to an alternative London that has been designated as a chaos world and retrieve a very important book that could be dangerous. When they are in this world they find the book has already been stolen and there are more players in the game than they even imagined.

Inventive and imaginative story by debut author Genevieve Cogman. As an avid reader, books are a fascination for me and this story brings to life so many possibilities. Each alternative world has different aspects. Some of technology whereas some do not. Usually a world doesn’t have both technology and traditional magic. Some worlds have vampires, werewolves and fae! Each world has so many possibilities. A good strong start for this author and I could look forward to the next book!



Review by Pamela Kinney

In this gaslight fantasy with revenants of steampunk, Irene works as an agent for The Library (and yes, librarian), which collects important works of fiction from different realities. Many of these unique works are saved in a place out of time and space. Just as she got back safe and sound from her latest adventure, the book she’d been sent to acquire now safely added to the Library’s shelves, thinking she would be able to relax and even read a good book; she is summoned by her superior, Coppelia to take on Kai, as her assistant and both are sent to retrieve the most dangerous Grimm manuscript, from a chaos-infested reality of London. The problem when they get there? The book has already been stolen. They meet a shrewd great detective that reminds Irene of her favorite literary detective, Sherlock Holmes, who will help them. Then there is the secret that Kai is keeping close to the vest, along with a terrifying archenemy and a handful of mysteries to unravel.

If you love steampunk fantasy, alternate reality stories, supernatural, and dragons, this book is for any book lover, especially when it has an interdimensional library and librarian spies. It reminds me of a TV show, The Librarians, where their library is in between time and space and the librarians are sent to preserve special works, and yet this novel and its characters are unique enough to stand on its own without copying that television show. The action starts well and picks up pace with an absolute crescendo of an ending. Description of the realities and the Library are well done. And I bet there will be more books to come. Light, but not lightweight, smart, cleanly and beautifully written, a book worth reading and rereading.

The Invisible Library reminds us that books are magic and doorways to fun and adventure, and this novel doesn’t disappoint this reviewer in fulfilling that.

Sheep Comic Review: Burn the Orphanage #1

Burn the Orphanage #1 (of 3)
By: Sina Grace & Daniel Freedman
Image Comics
Publication Date: August 7, 2013


A young orphan named Rock was left for dead, now he's out for revenge! With partners Lex and Bear by his side, our hero will find out who burned his home and family to the ground. If that means taking on every goon, punk, and topless stripper ninja in the city... then so be it. PART ONE OF THE BORN TO LOSE TRILOGY!

This book is ridiculous. If you never played a fighting game back in the days of the NES or watched those all-attitude action films of the 80s, this book won't make a lick of sense to you. And even then, Burn the Orphanage is probably gonna leave you scratching your head.

Meet Rock. He's an orphan. When he was a boy, someone burned down the orphanage, and Rock has been seeking revenge ever since. Which has been years, since the story starts with him as an adult kicking and punching his way through the city's streets and alleyways in search of answers.

First question that popped into my head: Has he been doing this the whole time since the orphanage burned down? Apparently so, and he's apparently not that bright either, because it's only now that his taped fists of fury have managed to pound the faces of some people who can give him the answers he wants.

Okay, so along for the ride with the spontaneous and nonsensical brawling is Rock's best friend, Bear. Bear has a bear's heart, hence the name. Get it? Oh, and Lex. She's the sister he never had and just as passionate about kicking butt as Rock and Bear. Good thing too, considering the room full of stripper ninjas. Yeah, you read that right. Stripper ninjas.

Fun at times, frustrating at others, Burn the Orphanage is a schizophrenic homage to twelve-year-old daydreams of being a bad-ass. Logic is on holiday in this series, folks. My inner child loves it, but my inner curmudgeon would like just a little bit more in terms of story development.
