Seven deadly sins. Seven souls that must be saved. One more no-holds- barred battle between a fallen angel with a hardened heart and a demon with everything to lose.
Isaac Rothe is a black ops soldier with a dark past and a grim future. The target of an assassin, he finds himself behind bars, his fate in the hands of his gorgeous public defender Grier Childe. His hot attraction to her can only lead to trouble-and that's before Jim Heron tells him his soul is in danger. Caught up in a wicked game with the demon who shadows Jim, Isaac must decide whether the soldier in him can believe that true love is the ultimate weapon against evil.

This is the second installment in the Fallen Angels series by J.R. Ward and as you guys know I love J.R. Ward :) I do prefer the BDB books over this one, but this series is good all the same and I really enjoyed this book. And for some reason, I love the cover!

Giveaway: Entangled & Aurora Sky by Nikki Jefford

Hey Everyone :)
This giveaway is for your chance to win an eCopy of Entangled by Nikki Jefford and Aurora Sky: Vampire Hunter by Nikki Jefford along with a signed Entangled bookmark and a signed Aurora Sky door hanger!
This is open international :)
This giveaway is only for Kindle copies of Entangled & Aurora Sky from amazon.
One winner receives it all!

Two months after dying, seventeen-year-old witch Graylee Perez wakes up in her twin sister Charlene’s body.
Until Gray finds a way back inside her own body, she’s stuck being Charlene every twenty-hour hours. Her sister has left precise instructions on how Gray should dress and behave. Looking like a prep isn’t half as bad as hanging out with Charlene’s snotty friends and gropey boyfriend.
The “normals” of McKinley High might be quick to write her behavior off as post-traumatic stress, but warlock Raj McKenna is the only person who suspects Gray has returned from the dead.
Now Gray has to solve the mystery of her death and resurrection and disentangle herself from Charlene’s body before she disappears for good.

If there is one thing eighteen-year-old Aurora Sky wants, it’s to get off the iceberg she calls home. Being kissed before she graduates wouldn’t hurt either.
Then a near-fatal car wreck changes everything. Government agents step in and save Aurora’s life in exchange for her services as a vampire hunter. In Alaska. Basically she’s a glorified chew toy. All thanks to her rare blood type, which sends a vampire into temporary paralysis right before she has to finish the job… by hand.
Now Aurora’s only friends are groupies of the undead and the only boy she can think about may very well be a vampire. And if he’s a vampire, will she be forced to kill him?

Author Interview: Nikki Jefford

Hey everyone :)
I am so happy to share with you my author interview with Nikki Jefford.
I would really like to thank her for taking the time and answering my questions and I am so happy to share them with you! She gave some fantastic answers :) Be sure to check them out.

1. Well to start off, Can you tell us a little about yourself?
I’m a third generation Alaskan, 35, now living in Friday Harbor, WA – on an island without a single traffic light. I love nature hikes, baking, hot chocolate, romantic comedies, travel, foreign accents and languages, and most of all, spending time with my husband and dog.

2. When did you first know you wanted to become a writer/author? Any inspirations?
I was painfully shy growing up. My mom remarried when I was six and we ended up moving all the time. I went to a new school every single year from kindergarten until high school. Creating characters kept me company. I also grew up in an abusive household and reading and writing provided instant escapism. Stories, my own and others, took me to better places.

3. I have to ask! Since Entangled is about witches and Aurora Sky: Vampire Hunter is about vampires, which do you prefer reading about vamps or witches? Why?
Great question! Funny enough, my favorite reads don’t feature witches or vampires. I enjoy strong female protagonists, especially when set in a fantasy world: Katniss in The Hunger Games; Trice in Divergent; Kara in The Grimoire Trilogy, Karou in Daughter of Smoke and Bone; Calaena in Throne of Glass; Sloane in This Is Not a Test…young women are kicking butt and authors are getting more and more imaginative. I’m a happy reader!

4. Do you take any part in creating any of your books' book covers? 
I picked out the cover model and color schemes for all the Spellbound books. I tried to do the same with Aurora Sky. I found a model in a parka who looked exactly how I imagined Aurora (with blond hair). My designer humored me, but, as she pointed out, it looked like a cheesy winter romance. I love what she did with the final cover. It screams Alaska to me and adventure. I loved the manipulation of the model image so much I changed Aurora’s hair color to black in the book. LOL
