In the future, corporations rule the galaxy. And they’re willing to pay a hefty price to get ahead of the competition. 

Enter the downlooters—space pirates who have no affiliation with any corporation. They’ll steal any information for the highest buyer. It’s dangerous work, but for some, it’s the only way to make a living. 

It’s how Clementine Jones has spent most of her life. As first mate of the Pícara, she’s more robot than human and the one who downloads classified information to her storage banks. 

After years of making successful downlooting runs, she thought she was prepared for everything. She was wrong. 

During a particularly easy run, she accidentally downloots a virus unlike anything the galaxy has ever seen. It’s already killed hundreds of thousands at a space port, and it wants to spread even further. 

Worst of all, it wants to do it through Clementine.

My Review

An author so talented they have you reading sub genres you never considered before and LOVING every minute of it. Truthfully, I am not sure anyone but the talented Erin Hayes could get this reader to WILLINGLY go any where near space pirates never mind enjoy the journey. The world she paints is so detailed you feel like your right there with Clem and her crew on the Picara. This is an action packed hit that will pull you in faster than a black hole. As this is book one I am all too excited to see where things go from here.

Haunted. Cursed. Helpless. Life is dangerous this close to the Door to Hell. 

Half insane after the death of his wife and daughter, Rahym runs a lodge near the Door to Hell. With a sector curse that causes anyone to collapse into Hibernation after four hours of exertion, a stay at the lodge is the only way for people to cross the Karakum Desert without falling victim to fire or demonlings. 

Then Nakir, an old friend and the angel leading the rebel group known as Halos, appears with a plan to break the curse. He’s brought Rahym’s childhood love Jennet whose special witch powers may be the tipping point the resistance needs to win.
But first, they’ll have to brave Hell itself. 

They just need Rahym to show them the way. He’ll have to decide if he’s willing to risk his life for a cause he once believed in. Or if there’s even enough left of the world worth saving.

My Review

This standalone installment in the Charmed Legacy: Cursed Angel Watchtowers collection features Rahym Tezel as our lead hero. Nakir is a fallen angel and Jennet a witch. They travel through the Door to Hell in hopes of lifting the curse. This world is wonderfully constructed and such a fascinating plot! I honestly couldn't put it down and went to CharmedLegacy.com afterwards to find more books in the collection.

Ruin of the Gods by Erin Hayes

Ruin of the Gods

Author Erin Hayes

Series The Elysium Legacies, book 3

ADD TO GOODREADS

Blurb

Hell hath no Fury. Because she’s taking a vacation. 

Officer Tessa Forney is a brilliant cop with a fiery temper and a predilection for toeing the line of the law. She’s good at her job too, much to the chagrin of her by-the-book partner Raph. She just always seems to be at the right place at the right time. 

What Raph doesn’t know is that Tessa is actually Tisiphone, one of the Furies of ancient Greek mythology. After breaking up with her boyfriend of five-thousand-years because he cheated on her—bastard—Tisiphone is determined to take her anger out on the bad guys during her extended mortal vacation. 

But when too many gods and goddesses suddenly decide to take time off, the balance of nature is thrown into disarray. And the consequences are far bigger than Tisiphone could have ever anticipated. 

These gods aren’t going on vacation—they’re being kidnapped. And she will have to find them before it’s too late. 

New York Times bestselling author Erin Hayes presents Ruin of the Gods, which continues Tisiphone's story where Callie's left off in Shades of the Gods and Blood of the Gods.

My Review

The always surprising yet never dull Tisiphone is back to tell us her story in book 3 of The Elysium Legacies series. Hell's youngest Fury is still on vacation in the mortal world and keeping busy as Officer Tessa Forney. Mortals and Gods/Goddesses alike should take cover though. Because our favorite Fury is even more furious as she deals with a broken heart. Five thousand years is a long time to just get over... There's a sake up at the police station and the mortals seem to be shy some important godly influences. Can Tisiphone get to the bottom of everything before its too late? 

I was beyond excited for the third book in this addictive series and totally intrigued to learn more about the fiery Fury we connected with, laughed because of, and totally wanted as a best friend from the first two books. This authors talent for crafting relatable and deep characters and storylines that will provide epic book hangovers is present and accounted for in Ruin of the Gods and this reader highly recommends you do NOT miss out!

I've spent the last five months trying to find the bastard who took my sister's life and ruined mine. 

Being brought up in a family that hunted the supernatural should have helped, but even with a slim chance that I can save us all, there's still the bigger chance I'll die trying.

I MAY BE A VAMPIRE HUNTER.

What's even more shocking is that I love him back.

I’m finally free of my family’s curse. 

Except now, the world is ending. FML.

The worst part? I can't do anything about it, because I'm no longer the Harker. Sure, I'm not dying anymore, but I'm barely living at this point.  

But there may be one last chance to save us all. If only I can find it in me to make one final sacrifice.

Billionaire Romance

Blurb:

As the crown prince of Dubreva, Phillip lived a life without regrets. Until now. 

Disgraced and humiliated by his very public break-up with his ex- fiancée, Phillip just wants to move on with his life as quietly as a billionaire prince can. 

He can't avoid his duties to his people--but he never expected to be thrown into the path of a beautiful CEO who's even more famous than he is. And richer. Not to mention, the media empire she built from the ground up is watching his every move. 

Lucky for him, she's not at all interested in helping him find redemption. Then again, Phillip may be falling for her. If only she would stop being such a royal pain.

My Review

Much like a Phoenix, something strong and powerful can rise from the ashes. I very much enjoyed reading Phillip and Jessica's story. Even the rich and royal make mistakes. Traveling from page to page watching these characters grow and over come was astonishing. Well rounded characters and an intriguing plot has me secretly hoping they'll be more in this world. It'll be nice to hear how Henry is healing!
