Review / Release Blitz: Vicious Bonds (Tether #1) by Shanora Williams



Vicious Bonds by Shanora Williams is now live!

From New York Times & USA Today bestselling author Shanora Williams comes a dark romance series of violence, chaos, angst, and a powerful love that can't be denied...

WILLOW

I was never meant to live an ordinary life, and when I'm dropped from the sky into a haunting forest, facing the barrel of an unknown man's gun, I believe it to be true.

Ruler of Blackwater, Caz Harlow, is the man behind the gun. He's broody, calculating, commanding and, surprisingly, I can hear every thought that runs through his mind. Because I can, he wants me out of his world and sent back to where I came from, so he makes it his mission to find a way.

It seems like a simple task, until I realize his world is unlike mine--that his is filled with violence, chaos, destruction, and gifted people who can kill you with one look. In his universe, it's hard for a regular human like me to survive, but with Caz at my side, the possibility is higher. And the more time we spend together, the harder it is for me to ignore the connection that makes me feel alive.

He says we're not meant to be, so why does everything about him set my soul on fire?

CAZ

I have too many enemies to count, and when this Willow woman drops into my forest, that's exactly what I think she is: an enemy.

But then she makes a remark without even opening her mouth, and I realize I can hear her thoughts, and she can hear mine.

As Monarch of Blackwater, I can't allow her to stay. By doing so, I risk losing everything I've worked so hard to build, so I make it my mission to find her a way back home.

But as this mission rolls on, I realize my bond with Willow goes much deeper than I ever could have imagined. And the more I reject her, the more pain I feel entering my body. However, when I lower my guard, the pain disappears and I crave her touch.

This relentless, undeniable bond is becoming impossible to ignore, but I can't give into it. For if she stays, death will come for us, and it's up to me to choose our fate.

Do I risk staying with her and putting her life at constant risk, or do I sacrifice the one thing that brings me happiness and let her go?

MY REVIEW

Willow's been hearing a voice in her head for awhile when she's dropped, literally, into a world quite unlike her own. In this world of magic and violence, she will find THE man that voice belongs to, Caz, and nothing will ever be the same for her, or for him. She has to contend with the tether they have to each other. Is it something she should embrace? Or something that will ultimately be their downfall?

Caz has for so long not liked to be touched. Then a woman is thrown into his path, into his world, that he can't ignore, can't help but crave like no one, like nothing, that came before her. She's his tether, but will their bond be the thing that saves him, them, or the thing that breaks them?

Whew, this romantic fantasy is fire! It's a different kind of story for Shanora, with its fantastical elements, but there's also familiar and loved parts that are signature Shanora. The crazy chemistry, storyline that never falters, and at its center, a couple that I fell in love with. Caz, like some of Shanora's other heroes that I love (I'm looking at you, Theo!) is a bit (a lot) tortured and alpha, but so lovable that he broke my heart. Sassy Willow came along and their bond was on its way to healing them both, them bam that cliffhanger happened. Now I really don't think I can wait until November for more Caz and Willow.

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
