Book Blitz & Giveaway: Dead Wolf Walking (Bad Moon Academy, #1) by Rory Miles (Adult Paranormal Reverse Harem Romance)

 

Dead Wolf Walking
Rory Miles
(Bad Moon Academy, #1)
Publication date: May 18th, 2021
Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Reverse Harem, Romance

One bite changed my life.

I was living life to the fullest when a wolf attacked.

Now I’ve been ripped from my home and shipped off to Bad Moon Academy, a place for changed wolves. Or so I’m told.

There’s something sinister lurking within the confines of the academy, and I’m starting to think I was brought here as a sacrifice.

This is a dark academy reverse harem with dangerously possessive shifters.

EXCERPT:

“Pack magic prevents unauthorized people from leaving. You haven’t been granted permission to leave.” He runs a finger over one of the cuts on my palm.

I hiss. “The whole stabbing part seems a bit extreme.”

He hums and sniffs my palm. “This won’t do.” Slipping his tongue past his lips, he licks my hand.

“Hey, gross. Don’t.” I try to yank away again, but his hold tightens.

Lifting his gaze to meet mine, he hovers his mouth above my skin. “Would you rather the vampires smell your blood and come for you?”

Vampires?

I wrinkle my nose and press my eyebrows together. “No.”

“Then let me finish.” Strands of dark hair fall across his forehead, and I fight the urge to brush them away from his eyes.

Am I really going to give him permission to lick me?

Do I really want to be eaten by vampires?

Absolutely not.

“Fine, but hurry.”

He smiles and tsks. “You can’t rush perfection, Little Red.”

I press my lips together and watch him lick my wounds clean. He slowly rolls his tongue over the cuts. Once the blood is gone from those, he slips my index finger inside his mouth and sucks on it. My knees knock together, heat flaring low in my belly. With a gasp, I place my hand on his shoulder to stay upright. He chuckles, and the sound vibrates against my finger as he drags his mouth to the end of it and moves to my middle one.

“Draco! Release her.” Carter doesn’t sound happy.

“It’s not what it looks like,” I say over my shoulder. He’s storming toward us and looks ready to knock Draco out. “The gate cut me, and he’s getting rid of the blood before the vampires— “

“Vampires?” Carter scoffs. “Moons, Draco, is that what you told her?”

The man in question swirls his tongue over my bloodied finger and places a chaste kiss at the tip before releasing my wrist, standing, and smirking at Carter.

“I was helping.”

Carter crosses his arms over his chest. “Fucking hell. What is your problem?”

New Release & Giveaway: The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore & Bar (Sam Quinn Series, #1) by Seana Kelly (Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance)

 

Title: The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore & Bar
Series: Sam Quinn, Book 1
Author: Seana Kelly
Genre: Urban Fantasy with Romantic Elements (vampires/werewolf)
Release Date: October 13, 2020


Welcome to The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore and Bar. I’m Sam Quinn, the werewolf book nerd in charge. I run my business by one simple rule: Everyone needs a good book and a stiff drink, be they vampire, wicche, demon, or fae. No wolves, though. Ever. I have my reasons.

I serve the supernatural community of San Francisco. We’ve been having some problems lately. Okay, I’m the one with the problems. The broken body of a female werewolf washed up on my doorstep. What makes sweat pool at the base of my spine, though, is realizing the scars she bears are identical to the ones I conceal. After hiding for years, I’ve been found.

A protection I’ve been relying on is gone. While my wolf traits are strengthening steadily, the loss also left my mind vulnerable to attack. Someone is ensnaring me in horrifying visions intended to kill. Clive, the sexy vampire Master of the City, has figured out how to pull me out, designating himself my personal bodyguard. He’s grumpy about it, but that kiss is telling a different story. A change is taking place. It has to. The bookish bartender must become the fledgling badass.

I’m a survivor. I’ll fight fang and claw to protect myself and the ones I love. And let’s face it, they have it coming.



A “master class in storytelling and survival.” - Publisher’s Weekly (starred review)


"This action-packed paranormal series launch will appeal to readers who enjoy a plot-driven, female-centric journey of growth with a side of romance. Great for fans of Patricia Briggs’s Alpha and Omega series.” - Book Life (Editor’s pick)




“No one can sneak up on you if you keep your back to the wall. No one can hide in the shadows if you never turn off the lights. No one can hurt you if you never let them touch you. Trust issues? You bet. I have my reasons.”


Seana Kelly lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, two daughters, two dogs, and one fish. When not dodging her family, hiding in the garage to write, she’s working as a high school teacher-librarian. She’s an avid reader and re-reader who misses her favorite characters when it’s been too long between visits.

She’s a two-time Golden Heart® Award finalist and is represented by Sarah E. Younger of the Nancy Yost Literary Agency

Unnatural By Michael Loring

Unnatural:  A collection of short stories by Michael  Loring





Synopsis:


From the vault of Author Michael
Loring’s warped mind comes this brand new collection of short stories.
UNNATURAL: A COLLECTION OF SUPERNATURAL STORIES is as the title says: a
collection of shorts revolving around the supernatural and paranormal.
THE FOX IN THE FIELD:
A mischievous fox makes a plan for an engaged couple…
THE WEREWOLF’S MATE:
A vampire tries to steal a werewolf’s boyfriend…
NO FORGIVENESS: A
man takes a demon lover…
NUMBER 18: A rapist
stalks his eighteenth victim…
DEATH’S EXPRESSION:
A man faces the Grim Reaper…


CARPE DIEMA man

learns the intricacies of the afterlife…

THE WALLFLOWER’S COLLAPSEA woman tries to shed her wallflower ways…

This collection of
stories will shock you, horrify you, make you wonder, and caution you. Each
tale with its own genre, its own world, and its own story to be told.




Unnatural is a collection of short stories by Michael Loring and are all very well written as I have come to
expect from Loring. The collection starts on a high note with “The Fox in the Field” which I loved and ends with “The Wallflowers Collapse” which wasfantastic. 
I will review my favorites of the collection individually.  The Fox in the Field~ This one is a sweet story with an adorable fox, a not so adorable
fiancĂ©e and a little paranormal twist. I fell in love with the fox and thought the Kitsune twist was perfect. 


 Number 18~ Robert is a real creep, who finds that the life of a serial killer isn’t the best path, when he comes across the world of the supernatural. He meets his match with his 18th victim as something he never knew existed fights back. Being that it’s a short story there isn’t a lot I can say that won’t give it all away, but
I guarantee you won’t see the twist coming in this one. 




The Wallflower Collapse~ this one was fantastic as I said above although it is a bit sad. A
shy girl takes a chance on a night out on the town… it doesn’t go as she had
planned and ends in a way I didn’t expect. Still it was very good. 




No Forgiveness~ Now this one caught my attention for a few reasons, and as weird as this will sound
the name of the character Morrigan had my brow rising. Knowing what I do of Celtic mythology, I had expectations that didn’t fit with the character at all, I very much thought I was going to be reading something different then what Loring wrote. The characters themselves are very interesting and Loring has
given a lot of depth within a few short pages. I loved the religious part of this book and it very well may have been my favorite of the collection.
