How to Seduce a Band Geek (How To #2)

by Cassie Mae

Release Date: 05/06/14

Swoon Romance

 

Summary from Goodreads:

Sierra Livingston’s got it bad for her sister’s best friend, Levi Mason—the boy who carries his drumsticks in his pocket, marches with the school’s band, and taps his feet to whatever beat runs through his head. Sierra racks her brain for ways to impress the sexy drummer, but the short skirts and bursting cleavage don’t seem to cut it.

When Sierra gets paired with Levi’s sister, Brea, for a mentorship program, they strike a deal. In exchange for Sierra keeping her mouth shut about Brea ditching the program, Brea lets Sierra dig for more info on Levi to help get the guy of her dreams.

But when Sierra discovers Levi no longer plays the drums, his family has moved into a trailer, and he’s traded in his Range Rover for a baby blue moped, Sierra’s not sure if she can go through with violating his privacy. She’ll have to find the courage to ask him straight out—if he’s willing to let her in—and explore other ways to seduce the school’s band geek.

How to Hook a Bookworm (How To #3)

by Cassie Mae

Release Date: TBD

Swoon Romance

Summary from Goodreads:

It’s Brea Mason’s sixteenth birthday, and she has three wishes. 1. Be magically eighteen like the rest of her friends. 2. Grow a money tree for her family whose financial problems are well known about town.  3. Overcome her test anxiety before she flunks out of every class.

But one day later, she's still sixteen, her family's money worries abound, and she's no closer to passing than she was the day before!

 

Then a very sexy transfer student—with gobs of cash—shows up. Brea figures she has a better chance of burping up glitter than attracting the new guy, but he seems extremely interested in her.

Just when Brea thinks things are looking up, her report card arrives marked with four giant F’s. Enter resident bookworm and Brea's loyal friend, Adam Silver. If he can't help Brea pass, no one can.

Even with Adam's help, Brea can't handle the mounting pressure, and finds an escape with the new student who knows little about her problems. 

 

But spending oodles of time with her boyfriend strains the friendship with Adam she relies so heavily on. Faced with losing the only real comfort and support she has ever had, Brea starts to wonder if she can hook a bookworm before it's too late.

East Hampton, NY 1658: The Pennyfeathers are the black sheep of their small English settlement. As hard as they try to keep the family secrets just that, the magical bunch just can’t seem to fit in. But when a High Priestess witch chooses 16-year-old Margo Pennyfeather as an apprentice, Margo’s luck finally begins to change. What she doesn’t know, is there’s a lot more to her apprenticeship, and to being a witch, than she could ever imagine

"The SkinWalker's Apprentice " a prequel to The Emerald Kipp series of Urban Fantasy written by Claribel Ortega was an interesting read.

The author introduces you to a modern day witch named Emerald Kipp who is literally trouble on two feet. Emerald Kipp is also a witch.

Starting of in the 80's in NYC on her 16th birthday you get the feeling that Emerald & her trendy, gothy, skateboarding , and partially willing partners in petty crimes are setting you up for the character that Enerald is going to grow into.

In a complete switch the alternating chapters are from Margo Pennyfeather also a 16 yr. old witch. That sadly is where the similarity ends. Margo is living in a settlement in the mid 1600's with her very poor family. The Pennyfearher's magical talents lay with the "Seeing" or Seer arts.

Margo's ancient yet brilliant grandmother had seen an image of an older Margo being inducted to train with the Coven. The highest honor (it would also guarantee a bit more financial stability for the hardworking but struggling Pennyweathers.

Claribel Ortega switches back and forth between narratives and doesn't really go into very much detail about some highly questionable activity at the Coven that I really was curious about! There is however a ton if detail about what current day Emerald Kipp is up to.

I'm looking forward to reading the first full length book in this series. It has all the ingredients to be a fantastic YA Urban Fantasy series. Claribel Ortega also has a seamless writing style. The transition from Emerald's p.o.v. in current day to Margo's p.o.v. in the past is fluid. The world building is also detailed enough to give a great idea of what the two young witches are living through with clarity.

The unusual way that Ortega chose to write the prequel before the first full length book was the hardest part for me to enjoy. Certain aspects if the story were left undescribed and I can only guess that that's because it's going to be a large part of the full length novel.I may be wrong here but I'm not sure exactly what being a Skinwalkers Apprentice actually entails or means in the long run?

I'm defiantly going to check out the upcoming books in this series . I love books about basically any supernatural or mythological entity.

I find it even more enchanting when it's mixed up with modern day life. In an age that can google anything and be told the how's and why's of just about any mystery topic it tickles me blue when an author can keep me locked in the suspension of disbelief for the entirety of their tale.

Mousehead & Tales gives this fledgling prequel 3 stars because I'm keeping my fingers crossed that with enough research, and the already apparent talent is storytelling that Ortega has proven this might end up being a quirky, exciting addition to the YA Urban Fantasy genre.

I'd like to thank YA Bound & all involved in the execution of "The Skinwalkers Apprentice " for supplying me with an ARC & including me in this virtual tour:)

Jill from "Breaking The Spine" has a fantastic event every wednesday that lets us bloggers admit about the books that we.. Well in this case I CAN NOT WAIT TO READ! I have a ton:) but since I'm just trying this out I'm going to go with one that's coming out April 1st 2014!

I'll admit I'm also counting down the days for "Gods & Monsters" by Laini Taylor & "Winds of Winter" by George R.R.Martin. Though for any who read "A Song of Fire & Ice" as it came out waiting is just part of the fun! That is a complete lie! The waiting is awful!

Anyways.. Onto something I will be reading very soon! Unlike the last two books in Karen Marie Moning's "Fever Series" or the spin off trilogy "Iced", who's second book won't even be out for a year.

Right ,so what I'm happy to be almost reading and waiting with bated breath for is...

Picture

J.R. Ward's # 1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood continues as a royal bloodline is compromised by a grave threat to the throne.

"Long live the King…

After turning his back on the throne for centuries, Wrath, son of Wrath, finally assumed his father’s mantle--with the help of his beloved mate. But the crown sets heavily on his head. As the war with the Lessening Society rages on, and the threat from the Band of Bastards truly hits home, he is forced to make choices that put everything--and everyone--at risk.

Beth Randall thought she knew what she was getting into when she mated the last pure blooded vampire on the planet: An easy ride was not it. But when she decides she wants a child, she’s unprepared for Wrath’s response--or the distance it creates between them.

The question is, will true love win out... or tortured legacy take over?"

So! If you're a fan of J.R.Wards "Blackdagger Brotherhood "series, which yes, not every book has been killer but I have a sickness where I will read an entire series, novellas and all no matter how bad it gets. You can see this in the fact that I completed the entire "Hush Hush" saga as well as the soul crushing lameness if the last "Sookie Stackhouse " novel. I'm not sure if that's True Bloods fault or if Charlaine Harris just lost the passion for those characters ? At any rate I hope that whatever book you're waiting on is coming out soon! When I figure out how to link up to all the other blogs that take part in this I'd be thrilled to hear what you're waiting on! Keep reading.. It's good for the soul :) Bookworms Assemble! Later from the Mousehead

Now that Nara and Ethan are working together to uncover theCorvus’ secrets, they’re confident nothing can stop them.

Despite all the chaos and turmoil around them, the one constant they can depend on is their devotion and loyalty to each other. But as their relationship moves into deeper territory, sometimes the toughest battles are the ones waged within.

 

While the hunt for answers unravels more layers in the Corvusworld, Ethan and Nara uncover new truths about themselves and their intricate connection to the powerful raven spirit.

REVIEW!

On this day... February 15th I thought it would be a fantastic time to post a review about romance. It's not always some perfect date where after the kiss goodnight, fireworks go off & boom! You're in love. Sometimes that "happily ever after" has to be earned. Blood, sweat , and tears might just be the price.

In Trista Jaszczak's suspense crime thriller "Loverboy" it takes all that and more for the hero & heroine Charlie & Nick. The author choose to write this book with alternating point of views, going from Charlie's to Nicks. Experiencing this book from both the female & males pov gives you an interesting understanding of what's happened.

"Loverboy" is about Charlie getting kidnapped by the notorious serial killer "Loverboy" dubbed for his cruel torture and abuse of the females he captures, drugs, tortures & than kills. Charlie is the only person who has escaped with her life.

Sadly she doesn't remember much about her time with the infamous murderer. Where that's a blessing in many regards it is also making the investigation difficult. Enter Nick, a cop who has personal reasons for wanting this killer brought to justice. Nick has a sister who endured rape. Coming from a family that chooses to "Serve & Protect" he already had aspirations to become a cop. When his younger sister became the victim of a terrible crime it only made his need more profound .

Nick is the police officer put in charge of standing guard outside Charlie's hospital room. In what is a unusual choice the police department assigns Nick to become Charlie's bodyguard & protector when she is released from the hospital to go home . Worried that "Loverboy" will try to finish the job with Charlie & thinking that as Charlie heals she might remember more details of her imprisonment, and could help Nypd capture him they have Nick go undercover as her housemate.

Nick wants to make Charlie feel safe. Be able to live her life w/o looking over her shoulder all the time, get back to teaching dance, and find the joy in living that "Loverboy" has beaten out of her.

Charlie is at first shocked the police would be so insensitive to post a male cop to help her after all she's been through. The fact that he's a young, good looking, kind man doesn't even occur to her... at first. Nick's from a family that he was a lone male amongst his mother & sisters. He has a respect for woman that most men don't have ingrained in their make- up. He sees the strength in Charlie and the longer he watches and helps her get back on her feet the more he notices how brave, strong, and truley beautiful his assignment is.

Charlie goes from being leery of Nick to feeling safe and content with his continued presence. The last thing she expected to be thinking about was romance after all she'd been through. She finds herself wondering if she'll ever feel that way about any man ever again.

There are twists and turns that you'd might not see coming in this crime thriller romance. The identity of the killer has more than one shocking twist. The alternating pov's help you understand what both characters are going through while dealing with the awful crime that is rape.

Sadly I have had more than one friend who has endured this crime. It's awful to watch a beautify vibrant woman become a shell of herself when invaded this way. I thought it was very brave to tell this story. Though it was about a serial killer..besides a few chapters it did not get overly detailed with the specifics of the crime. I think it could be helpful for young adult audience's to read this book if only to be educated on what could happen to anyone. It also would appeal to fans of the psychological thriller with a bit of romance thrown in. It's also absolutely chick- lit!

So after all was read and done Mousehead and Tales gives "Loverboy" 3 1/2 stars. I'm a huge fan of Trista Jaszczak's retellings of original fairytales. This was a totally different type of book & I think that speaks to the talent of the author. Not everyone can write more than one genre well. If you haven't read anything by Trista Jaszczak I would suggest that you check out the links provided on this tour and add her to your to be read list immediately . I'll be looking forward to reading the next book she writes.

Hope you all enjoyed that Hallmark holiday we have to show the people we love they are appreciated. I'm glad that I had a book tour that showed the true meaning of love. Keep checking back for more reviews, virtual tours and chances to win swag !

My Date From Hell (The Blooming Goddess Trilogy #2)

by Tellulah Darling

Release Date: 10/31/13

 

Summary from Goodreads:

Sophie Bloom’s junior year has been a bit of a train wreck. After the world’s greatest kiss re-awakened Sophie’s true identity as Persephone (Goddess of Spring and Savior of Humanity), she fought her dragon-lady guidance counselor to the death, navigated mean girl Bethany’s bitchy troublemaking, and dealt with the betrayal of her backstabbing ex, Kai (sexy Prince of Darkness). You’d think a girl could catch a break.

Yeah, right.

With Zeus stepping things up, it’s vital that Sophie retrieve Persephone’s memories and discover the location of the ritual to stop Zeus and Hades. So when Aphrodite strikes a deal that can unlock Sophie’s pre-mortal past, what choice does the teen goddess have but to accept?

The mission: stop media mogul Hermes from turning Bethany into a global mega-celebrity. The catch? Aphrodite partners Sophie and Kai to work together … and treat this suicide mission as a date. Which could work out for Sophie’s plan to force Kai to admit his feelings for her–if she doesn’t kill him first.

Add to that the fact that BFF Theo’s love life and other BFF Hannah’s actual life are in Sophie’s hands, and suddenly being a teenager—even a godlike one—seems a bit like … well, hell. Whatever happened to dinner and a movie?

The YA romantic comedy/Greek mythology fireworks continue to fly inMy Date From Hell. Love meets comedy with a whole lot of sass in book two of this teen fantasy romance series. Breaking up is easy; dating is deadly.

WOW! Mousehead & Tales is very happy to be taking part in the blog tour for book 2 in the "Blooming Goddess" series by YA author Tellulah Darling!

I am happy to give this book a glowing 4 stars. The first book in this series had me laughing out loud at "Sophie Blooms" p.o.v. The author has a ridiculous way of wording things that makes Greek Mythology ... a privileged boarding school with a liberal staff, a mish mash of classic characters from mythology mixed up with "nerd chic" Sophie, Theo, ( human Hannah), Kai ,Aphrodite , Gods, Goddesses , and Titans Oh my!

I find this entire series to be fantastic. Hopefully the YA audience will be interested in researching the original stories if they're not already familiar. It makes it so much fun when another epic character enters the fray that is Sophie/ Persophone's life.

I highly recommend this series to both males and females of all ages . I also dare you not to laugh out loud! I'll absolutely be following this series until it ends. Fans of Kendare Blake's "Anti- Goddess" series will eat this up. Check out all the links to get the full benefit of this virtual tour!
