Cover Reveal for The Relics 2 By Jonathan Dawson Jackson!



BLURB

Chicago is in ruins.  True evil has been unleashed upon the world, but no one seems to believe…  

Milo and Killian attempt to free themselves from the madness David Wormwood left behind, but they quickly find themselves searching for the answer to an unknown riddle, something that has to do with a cult and the saying, “In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.”  

The hunter is back from hell with the love of his life Laura, but has he really escaped the clutches of the demonic forces he sabotaged?  He’ll find out somewhere in the bayous of Louisiana and inside the pages of a legendary book.

Abigail Williams has finally found the power she sought, but she doesn’t understand.  Why doesn’t she feel good?  Why doesn’t she feel immortal?  And why does she keep pondering the question: Will the Pendulum swing towards who is right, or who is left?

John Dawson Jackson returns to the first book of his career with new stories, new characters, and plenty of bloodshed.  If you were a fan of The Relics, prepare to be amazed!





ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Born in a ditch beside a busy highway, John Dawson Jackson never knew his parents. Taken in by wealthy philanthropists Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Elmo Jackson, he was trained from the age of two in classical piano. A horrible accident left his arm damaged, ending his dream before it began. He was forced to undertake control of his adopted father's oil business, a company that allowed him to travel the globe and explore the far reaches of civilization. As he studied the ancient carvings of the Mesopotamians, he realized just how much of our history has been covered up by powerful people. These findings have been collected into his new novel The Relics 2. Or maybe that's a lie...maybe this is true... John Dawson Jackson is an independent author based out of the Knoxville, TN area who has a broad spectrum of interests. Predominantly, his novels integrate the genres of fantasy, history, and horror with intriguing mind bending qualities. All of his works are based in the supernatural and exist within the same universe--a sometimes frightening, but always exhilarating place where Jackson enjoys playing with the interconnectivity of what is real, myth, and rumor. His most recent novel, The Relics 2, charts a path through history, blending both fact and fiction as ancient objects of power shape lives and bring together some of the most interesting and terrifying characters the world has ever seen as they realize their collective destinies.

MY REVIEW:

FIVE STARS
An incredibly moving story. It had me crying in a way that few books have ever moved me before. My heart ached for Kori, To have everything you could ever imagine one moment, and lose it the next. Newly unexpectedly single mom Kori moves back home and re-unites with childhood friend Maria. Maria and Kori pick up their friendship and Maria helps Kori. I love that. I love reading women supporting women! Especially strong characters.

Over all Forgiving Reed is very well written and will take you on emotional roller coaster. I don't know how to say more without giving away things. I will say you will fall in love with Reed and of course Rhett!

Bound Series by Hanna Peach

So there are a couple of times that through the blog an author will approach and offer me a copy of their book in exchange for an honest review. I am so beyond thrilled that Hanna Peach did just that!

I seriously could not get enough of these books, devouring both books in two days! I have to say that this is the best romantic suspense series I have read this year!  Let me share with you the synopsis of the first book, Bound by Lies.


(I LOVE a great cover...Kudos on the sexy cover!!!)



Synopsis:
Our love is on his terms. He contacts me only through notes − unpredictable and untraceable. When we meet, he can touch me, but I’m not allowed to touch him. When we make love, it’s only after I have been bound and blindfolded. It’s the only time I truly feel alive. Which is why I play along with it. For now.

Caden Thaine is the most sinfully beautiful man I have ever seen. But more than that, his touch sets me on fire. And dear God, do I ache for him. I don’t know where he lives or even what he does. But this doesn’t scare me. My only fear is that one day his messages will stop. 

I know he’s hiding something. But that’s okay. I am hiding things too. Like my real name and... who I really am. But the deeper I fall for him, the stronger my curiosity becomes. 

I could never have imagined just how much our lives are bound. And that pulling at his tangled web of secrets would cause my own dark past to come back to try and reclaim me. Will we survive? Will our love?

Adult romantic suspense. +18 years

Review:

HOLY mother of baby cupcakes!

There is suspense and then there is Hanna Peach's Bound by Lies. I LOVE this book! I am a new reader to this author, and am now completely in love!

This book will take you on an adventure! I don't want to give out too much, but not everything is as it seems. This book does deal with some strong issues, so those faint of heart, might not be the book for you. 'Kitten' has been through so much, having found her self in an impossible situation with a horrible man, she does what she thinks is right at the time. Caden is this beast of a man, who has his own issues. But let me tell you he knows how to treat a woman, and boy o boy does he show 'Kitten' that.

Together they find beauty in their brokenness, and hope. This book is sexy, sad, sweet, and will jerk at your heart.That is all I will say.

Now go forth and happy reading!



Book 2: Bound Forever






Synopsis:

"Kitten"
Caden and I on the run. Together. But he still won't let me touch him and I know he is still keeping things from me. I am determined to uncover everything - at any cost. Even if it tears us apart.



Caden
Jacob is back. He's back and he knows about her. Now, everything that binds the three of us together are twisting and tightening, pulling us all together. I can feel the inevitable coming...

I don't know how this will end... all I know is, there will be blood.



Adult romantic suspense. +18 years.
TRIGGER WARNING: This novel contains scenes and include or allude to rape, domestic violence and abuse.


REVIEW:

**Received a review copy in exchange for honest review**

The conclusion of bound is exactly as you would want it to be. You learn so much about Caden, his past, how it is tied to 'Kitten', etc.
There are twists and turns you didn't see happening, and some you are so happy that you do.

I love Caden Thaine. He is such a warrior. I love him.

This has to be the best romantic suspense series I have read all of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!

Ace's Redemption by A.C. Bextor



WENT LIVE EARLY!!!!

Synopsis:
Ace’s Redemption is the first standalone novel in the Devil’s Despair series. Although the main character of Ace was introduced during the Lights of Peril trilogy, you do not need to read that series in order to follow this one. 


Cherry 

Memories alone can ruin you. Fear has a paralyzing effect and love isn’t always enough to keep you safe. 

Ace was the gateway to a freedom that I hadn’t known since I was fifteen. He offered his protection from the demons that haunted me; both living and dead. 

Although I knew I wasn’t enough to keep him, this didn’t deter my hope that one day he’d love me for who I was, not the broken girl he tried so desperately to save. 

In the end, the ghosts of my past found me. Their malevolence knew no bounds and I was forced to succumb to their will of darkness. Each threat given against those I loved made my escape impossible; choosing my life for theirs became my desolate absolution. 

Inevitably, it was my own weakness and self-doubt that became my undoing. 


Ace 

Emotional ties are sometimes severed. Friendships don’t always endure their hardships, and love offered isn’t always returned. 

I was in love once. For me, leaving her back in Ohio was the hardest thing I had to do. For her, moving on with her life that included her son and the man she loved was no less than she deserved; unconditional happiness. 

My reasons to bring Cherry home to California were obvious. I needed help with my family and she needed help staying clean and convincing her parents that she was ready to give her son the life he deserved. 

It was a perfect plan. However, the best laid plans often get lost amidst their good intentions. 

Cherry fell in love with me, and in return my love for her acted as the catalyst to her destruction. 



Authors Note: This novel contains material that is not suitable for individuals under the age of 18. Content includes: drug use, explicit language, violence, rape, and other scenarios with content that readers may find offensive. Please use caution when deciding on this book, as every reader has the right to understand the product before purchase. 


Editorial Reviews: 

“Love is a tricky thing, especially when you're putting someone else's heart before yours; and that was a brutal couple of moments between Ace and Rae. I may have even gotten a little bleary eyed a time or two.” – Lara, Mean Girls Luv Books 

“Ace's Redemption has everything - you'll laugh, cry, cringe, get pissed and fall in love. – Jessica, Breathless Ink Book Blog 

“This book twisted me up, chewed me up, and spit me out. I went from screaming, to sighing to crying and back again.” – Jordan, Not Another Damn Book Blog 

“If you are in need of reading about sexy yet relatable characters, oh and hot sex, this is the book for you! It's not your typical story by far, it's so much more.” – Jessica, The Lovely Books Blog 

“This book veered seamlessly from the Peril crew and into its own. The characters are loveable and relatable with every flaw they show.” – Dana, Madam Hooks Book Blog 

“Their friendship is strong and tension is thick, but what needs to be said is finally laid on the table. It’s emotional, it’s gripping and it’s a bitter sweet moment.” Saavy, Let’s Misbehave Book Blog 

“You will laugh. You will cry. You will be angry and yet you will fall in love.” – Tracy, Ramblings from Beneath the Sheets Book Blog 




Excerpt:

© 2014 A.C. Bextor 

Hands to hips, his voice is full of contempt. “Did he kiss you?” Hands braced to my sides, my voice is full of shock. “What? No, he didn’t kiss me! What are you…” He cuts me off, not letting me question his question, but accusation is evident in his tone. “Cherry?” Running my hands through my wind-blown hair and sighing, I make an effort to calm him. “Ace, I’m not your prisoner, and you’re not my warden. You would’ve had to figure out that sooner or later I’d need to make new friends.” “Yeah, but not Travis kind of friends.” “What does that mean? He’s your friend. Did you think we were stashed up in a sleazy motel room all day havin’ at each other like rabbits?” Putting his hand between us, his phone resting in his large palm - he uses it as prop - but avoids answering my question. His voice gets louder as he inches toward my face. “You should have answered your fuckin’ phone, goddamn it. I was worried sick.” “You thought I was fucking him.” I make it a statement, unsure if I’m talking to myself or him. “No, I didn’t say that.” He may deny it, but the thought crossed his mind; apparently, several times throughout the day. I see it in his eyes - they give me truth he can’t hide. Putting my head down, I look to my hands that are left twisting in front of me. “Ace, I’m not a club slut; that’s not who or what I’ve always been. I miss my friends and you’re so mad all the time. Sarah is fourteen and Bean is your grandmother. I need someone my own age to hang out with. Trav’s nice and I like him.” Visibly relaxing, he runs his fingers through his hair, resting the palms of his hands on top of his head and lacing his fingers together as he holds the pose. “I didn’t mean it like that. I just…I worried, that’s all. You didn’t answer your phone.” He’s not hearing me. I was with Travis, safe and secure. Raising my voice in frustration, I answer his concern. “I didn’t answer my phone because you would have just kept calling! You agreed to this. You told Travis and me both it was okay, so why call me every thirty minutes and send text messages between those calls?” His face saddens, realizing I didn’t just incidentally forget to answer. I knowingly ignored his every attempt to reach me. I can’t let myself feel bad about this. “Ace, what are you gonna do when I start dating?” His eyebrows lift in question. “Dating?” “Yeah, two people… dinner… movies… it happens, ya know.” Just not for me. “I’ll take you to the fuckin’ movies, Cherry. If that’s what’s you want. Dinner, too, if you’re so goddamn insistent that you need all that shit.”
