Broken Spirit by Laurie Bowler (Book 1 of Reverse Revenge)
Publication Date: August 21, 2010
Format: E-Book
My Rating:


Summary: Jan wants revenge on her cheating  boyfriend Nate. She has been his door mate for too long so she decided to take matters into her own hands and cheat on Nate back with his best friend Matt.  Only little to her surprise, Matt wants more then just sex.  Jan fights her feelings for Matt back, as she doesn't want to go down that road again and have another relationship that could just be filled with hurt. On top of that, she starts to uncover the truth about Nate and winds up in a situation that isn't too favorable.

My Thoughts:  I was so honored that Laurie Bowler had me review this book for her. I would classify this book as romantic suspense. The few sex scenes in this book are a bit stronger then normal romance.  This book was very suspenseful and I was ready to get to the end to see what would happen. This was a short book but well worth it. So much is packed into the few pages. You can relate to Jan in her quest to get revenge. There are a few times you want to bop her up the head and ask her why she is doing what she is doing. However, if a character always did what we wanted them too, it wouldn't be as enjoyable to read.

Laurie will be writing a sequel to this book. Which I can't wait. This book, much like her previous book I reviewed, Moon Rising, leaves you with a big cliff hanger!

If your in the mood for a bit of a sexy read that is mixed with action and suspense head on over to Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or Smashwords and download this e-book. Current price on Amazon is 0.99 and I think its worth so much more. Don't take my word for it, go check it out!



**This book was supplied to me from Laurie Bowler for my honest opinion and that is what I have given. I was not required for this to be a positive review**

Moon Rising by Laurie Bowler---Review

I was given the opportunity to review Moon Rising by Laurie Bowler.  Please check out her website HERE. 

Nessy is the main character. She has escaped from her maker Hervidor where she meets Charles and his coven of vampires. She is instantly attracted to Charles as he vows to protect her. She is special in many ways, and one of those ways is that she is the only half vampire-half human. She has never killed a human or drank human blood in her 300 years of existence. When her maker is killed, she will become human again and will forget everything from the time she was a vampire. 

She has a best friend named Hera, who is a Gulon.  A Gulon is a type of large cat that fights and can normally destroy vampires. She later learns that Hera is a cousin to her.

So, what did i think? I loved it. The author did an excellent job and there will be another in the series and i can't wait to read it. She ends the book in a way that you simply can not wait for the next one to know what is going to happen. The love story between Charles and Nessy is real and you can tell that they are eternally meant to be bound. The twists she through in were good and some i had no idea would come. I always love when there is more paranormal in something then just vampires, so bring in Gulon's, was perfect.

One thing i also enjoyed, was that there were other characters in the book, that i can't wait to see their story unwind in another book. Her characters are memorable and real. 

For all my paranormal readers out there, you will want to keep an eye out for this one in late August. Check out the You Tube video!
