   The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . THE INNOCENCE OF DEATH (On Behalf of Death, #1) . . . It was nice to meet death. I certainly never thought of him as offering a job to anyone. I did not expect for him to be married and to Life at that. Then Life turns around and accuses him of murder. What must that be like?

For me this was more like the cozy fantasies that I have had the joy of listening/reading this past ten days. The difference was that Death was the one being accused, the world was the domain and a mere human was the investigator.  

I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobook Empire. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.




I met Death in the park. And then he offered me a job…

My name is Cal Thorpe and I worked for the premier marketing firm as a marketing and public relations agent. Then, I met Death. He gave me two options: go back to the moment when I’d been shot or work for him as his marketing agent. Obviously, I took the job. 

The only thing is, working for Death was absolutely nothing like I expected. For one, my assistant is a rock troll named Yolanda who smiles a lot and has a penchant for salt. Then, there’s the fact that I have to interview assassins who work with Death to get a sense of the guy. Oh, and finally? Death is married to Life and she’s accusing him of murder. 

Death says he didn’t do it. 

Now it’s up to me to go and solve this impossible crime, taking me on a trip through the magical realm of Elsewhere, and back to the mortal realm of Earth, to track down a killer who outsmarted Death. The only question is what is going to happen if I actually find the culprit. I have a feeling things will never be the same again. 

The Innocence of Death is the first book in an exciting comedic urban fantasy about Death hiring a marketing agent. Things go downhill from there...

 
E.G. Stone is an independent author who has been writing, creating and causing vast amounts of trouble since the age of six. Since then, E.G. has improved rather a lot in both the trouble-causing and writing and now spends her time writing fantasy and science fiction. When not writing, she is off musing about the workings of languages, both real and created, or drawing and sewing. E.G. reads voraciously, perhaps to the point of slight-insanity. Weird, nerdy, perhaps a little crazy, she is having a grand old time writing, reading, reviewing, interviewing, and, naturally, continuing her endeavours in causing trouble. Happy reading… and writing.

   The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . SIX NIGHTS OF SIN SERIES . . . Come on in and take a tantalizing step on the forbidden side of life. Nick and Sarah both commit to something deep and dark. They both commit to exploring fantasies for six nights. The physical was the contract for the fantasy. The intense intimacy was the reality of their six nights of exploring fantasy.

Ellis O. Day gives you a sensually raw look at the fantasy of the deepest part of two people that both needed something the other could give them. Erotic fantasy, kinky sex, and emotions find both Nick and Sarah and gives them more to think about. Will they both decide that six nights were enough?

An introduction to narrators Robert Hatchet and Dahlia Lynde. Thank you both for lending your voices to erotic pleasure. I found that they both had something to add to the story. Their narrations gave that extra. 

I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobook Empire. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.




Two strangers. Six nights exploring their deepest, darkest fantasies. 

Whatever he wants, she’ll try. 

Whatever she wants, he’ll submit. 

Nick’s not looking for commitment. A few weeks with a woman and then he’s ready to move on. 

Sarah can’t get past the death of her fiancé but she’s lonely. She misses the feel of a man surrounding her, filling her. 

A contract. 

Six nights of physical intimacy. 

Nothing more. Nothing less. Simple. Uncomplicated. Fun. 

But she didn’t expect Nick to be sweet and sexy and he never expected to want more. 

When the contract is over will either of them be able to walk away? 

A new adult erotic romance that’s filled with second chances, kinky sex, and raw emotions of two damaged people finding each other and learning that life is worth taking a chance.

 

Ellis O. Day loves romance—the steamier the better. She writes steamy, contemporary romantic comedies about the hot men of La Petite Mort Club and the women who drive them crazy. She believes that the cornerstones of all great romantic relationships are love and friendship, trust, attraction and fabulous sex. Her stories contain all of these (especially the fabulous sex).

TOUR Audio - FANTASY - THE IRON CROWN (Dragon Spirits, #1) by L.L. MacRae Narrator: RJ Bayley

THE IRON CROWN 
Dragon Spirits #1
by L.L. MacRae 
Narrator: RJ Bayley 
Length: 17 hours 7 minutes 
Released: July 22, 2022
Producer: Audiobook Empire 
Publisher: L.L. MacRae 
Genre: High Fantasy 




  The Book Junkie Reads . . .  Review of . . .  THE IRON CROWN (Dragons Spirits, #1) . . . This journey with Fenn and Calidra is one that has many parts. At least that was how I saw things. It was not as simple as finding himself or who he was. Fenn had to discover the world around him and himself and the dragon spirit that mocked him. Or so he thought. There are things that will present challenges to him and his quest to find himself and some answers.

I did find sections of the story that were a bit long and at the time. I thought they may have been a bit drawn out. But as the story progressed further that extra information was needed. Connections made and progress made. This story is not for the person that cannot hang on for the depths to unfold. There are many things laying behind other things in this story. 

RJ Bayley was a new narrator to me and I was there for the whole ride.  


I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobook Empire. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.




Fenn’s first and only memory is finding himself in the middle of a forest, face to face with a dragon spirit mocking him, all knowledge gone apart from his own name. 

Lost and confused, his only hope for answers is Calidra—a woman living on the edge of the world with her partner. Forced to return home when her father dies, Calidra has put off facing her estranged mother for seven years, and she begrudgingly helps Fenn, forging papers for him so he can avoid the Queen’s Inquisitors. 

But her mother is the least of her worries when they discover an ancient enemy is rising again. It should be impossible with the Iron Crown in power—and Fenn is terrified he might unwittingly be playing a part in the war’s resurgence. 

Surrounded by vengeful spirits and powerful magic, Fenn’s desperate attempt to find his way home might well alter the fate of Tassar, and every power in it. 

A new high-fantasy series bursts into life with the Dragon Spirits who reign supreme in the magic-drenched world of Tassar.
