Smashwords book reviews by nicole passante

  • Unbound on July 20, 2011

    Unbound was an fun mini-adventure and that's all I ask for in a short story. I want to feel like I have just popped into someone else' journey and Unbound does that. It is an extremely erotic sizzling little jewel. I love the Yin-Yang aspect of the triad, I really would love to see a full length book done in this world.

    Let me first say that I got this book from read 2 review and did not expect to love it so much. I thought this would be a sweet YA book for the younger audience. I was wrong... Simply Brilliant. This story was sweet and endearing, fit for all audiences. Mothers can read with their daughters and boys can enjoy as well. Completely heartwarming and the promise that true love con conquer all.This is a must read for all ages, I could not put it down.

    ADULT BOOK = ADULT REVIEW Ok where to start.... ugg, I hate writing bad reviews without something constructive to say. I think I picked this up for free with a smashwords coupon from a thread so I wasn't expecting much but please, please, please can someone tell me the point to this madness?????? So I am not a huge fan of girl/girl stuff, sue me I like a man or two (or three)thrown into the mix but whatever I can deal with the f/f aspect of the story. Women are beautiful sensual creatures yup yup I candle handle that. But Linda (our female lead) is so shallow and unbelievable I couldn't stomach it. Add in it's written in her pov and then she turns into this "beast" and all we get is "I stealthily sneak into the nearest subway station" "I jump" "I leap" I I I I I I.... I want to blow her brains out! Ok I guess let me put the brakes on a bit. Linda is a perfect Manhattanite with a great job, a wonderful handsome husband, and a 10 to top it all off. It drives her crazy when her husband lovingly jokes that she is "perfect". She goes into central park one night to watch fireflies and gets seduced by Natasha. Natasha is a "nymphomite" which for all intent and proposes is a Vampire/Succubus. Not so bad eh? Seems like we might get a little PNR fun and sex out of the story? Wrong! I am sure there is some redeeming message in this POS for us all to learn from... you know something like be happy with what you have or something but you have to shovel through so much shit that I doubt you will get that message. So you say but but but WHAT ABOUT THE SEX??!?!?!? The main character is so annoying and shallow that I wanted to kill her by the end of the book much less did I enjoy her sexual conquests/murders. I am truly sorry to the author if you ever see this review I have no idea why I picked this story up, it was obviously not for me and I can usually find SOMETHING I liked about the story to focus on because I am an optimist. But it was not meant to be.

    ADULT BOOK = ADULT REVIEW Firstly let me just say that I am a huge Kate Douglas fan she is one of my all time favorite authors. She is absolutely not for the faint of heart. Her books are erotic (most of them), sexy, edgy, but most importantly and the reason I love them so much is the her characters have so much capacity to love and that they are larger than the written world they are created in. I have heard Kate say that her characters speak to her, tell their stories and monopolize her time. While I have heard authors say that before hers seem to take on a life of their own for me as well. This series is a playful escape into a sensual world. Locan and Jett are two sexy ex-demons turned demon hunters only kept in balance by Addie their "fulcrum". They are complete opposites in looks and rarely agreed any anything before meeting Addie. I love the idea of this series, I try to maintain balance in my own life and love the Yin & Yang aspect of these short stories. The bold covers with strong contrast immediately caught my eye and the stories down to the last word have kept me excited to see what happens next. Demon lovers is a fun series and a quick escape into an exotic world where Jett and Locan can discover why they truly fought before Addie. This was a much needed break for me from the past few YA books I have taken on. If you aren't reading this series and can handle Kate's erotic flair pick it up you will not be disappointed!

    Loved Five! FAB-U-LOUS! I mean wow what a cast of hunky men! I really enjoy books based on the fae and this one did not disappoint. Rayla was a likable heroine and I loved the twists and turns her love life takes. I do enjoy a good love triangle or square but sometimes they can be over done and annoying. But I really enjoyed this one and it kind of sneaks up on you. I am really looking forward to the next one. Ms Rich’s debut novel is a winner and I am a fan!To see my review in all it's glory & with pics go to shareAread dot com.
