~Synopsis~

In the blink of an eye, everything can change, altering life as we know it forever. 

Zara was happy and carefree, until receiving her gift from the heavens. Her world tilts completely on its axis when she faces torture at the hands of a person meant to love her. Forced into a life of servitude, she's left only a shell of her former self. 

Lifemates are a gift all their own. A powerful link that can’t be broken. 

Zara crosses paths with Xavier, Alpha of the Raber Pack, and the one time playboy finds himself drawn to the broken woman. As their connection flares to life, he grows determined to unleash the spitfire she hides within. 

Little does Xavier know that in finding Zara, he's ignited a flame that could destroy everyone’s lives... 

~Selina's 4 Star Review~

*I have received an ARC for an honest review*
Evil father, horrendous “fiance”, despicable friends, add a dash of humiliation and you have yourself a crappy life recipe.  What started off as Zara being a carefree girl living the life all shifter girls want, was interrupted because of a gift.  A gift that Zara never knew anything about.  A gift that was a burden and a nightmare to Zara but to others it was opportunity for deceitfulness.

How can someone look towards the future when you have no hope?  Everything was taken from Zara including the light at the end of the tunnel.  Zara for me was a pretty strong character for most the time.  I enjoyed the scene setups and thought that everything was played out very well.  I just devoured the book.  The moment it showed up in my Kindle I was pretty lost to the world.  Raber started off strong for the series and I can’t wait to get my greedy hands on the second one.

I liked how tentative certain members of the packs were towards Zara.  Having that complication not only makes for a great read but also shows growth further into the book.  I wasn’t disappointed.  I’ve read Ryan Michele’s other series and was hoping I would have felt a little bit of drama with Raber and I did.  I was rooting for her and was so happy with the end result.

If you like to read about strong woman and Caveman Alphas then this book is so for you.

~About theAuthor~

Ryan Michele has a huge obsession with reading, which only came to life after her best friend said she had to read Twilight. After reading that series, her entire world changed in the blink of an eye. Not only was she sucked into new worlds and all of the wonderful words authors put down on paper, she felt the urge to begin to write down the characters that played inside of her head. In doing so, Safe was born. Then Wanting You and the Ravage MC series.

When she's not reading or writing, she spends time taking care of her two children and her husband, enjoying the outdoors and laying in the sun.

Review: KING by T.M. Frazier

KING

by T.M. Frazier

~Synopsis~

Homeless, hungry and desperate enough to steal, Doe has no memories of who she is or where she comes from.

A notorious career criminal just released from prison, King is someone you don’t want to cross unless you’re prepared to pay him back in blood, sweat, pu$$y or a combination of all three.

King’s future hangs in the balance. Doe’s is written in her past. When they come crashing together, they will have to learn that sometimes in order to hold on, you have to first let go.

Warning: This book contains graphic violence, consensual and non consensual sex, drug use, abuse, and other taboo subjects and adult subject matter. Although originally slated to be a standalone, KING is now a two part series.

KING. IS. HERE!

~Selina's 5 Star Review~

King: -noun

A person or thing preeminent in its class: a king of actors.

Doe: -noun 

A fictitious name used in legal proceedings for a female party whose true name is not known. 

When a lost boy meets a lost girl what happens when they try to find their way?  

How can a man who’s been emotionally and physically scarred find his light?

How can a woman who has absolutely no idea who she is be someone that another needs? 

First off, I have to say that this book was a ridiculous rollercoaster for me.  I've laughed out loud in one book and in another I've cried.  But I've never laughed, cried, yelled profanities (in a language I'm not fluent in btw), sighed, plotted very descriptive maiming and relief all for one book.  I mean the freaking Prologue had me sucked in so deep I'm pretty sure I absentmindedly agreed to some stuff my daughter asked that I'll regret later.  

There is character development that is smoothly written throughout the book.   I loved King.  I mean there were parts that I seriously hated him but then I started to love to hate him.  He's so serious and such an alpha that he doesn't know how to be fun.

Doe's character was brilliant.  Building from the bottom up because you have nothing to base your past from is something.  Man, that ending though. 

The scene set up and descriptive writing really draws you in and T.M. Frazier really has a way of bringing you into the story.  I love how imperfect the characters are as well.  It brings realism but keeps the main focus of fiction.  There is depth throughout the story and everything that happens in KING has a reason.  I have read scenes in books where moments that seem significant, aren't. 

All in all, I didn't come across anything I didn't love. I would recommend the hell out of this book. I cant wait for Tyrant! T.M. Frazier just got a stalker for life.

~About The Author~

T.M. (Tracey Marie) Frazier resides in sunny Southwest Florida with her husband and three feisty fur kids.

She attended Florida Gulf Coast University where she specialized in public speaking. After years working in real estate and new home construction, she decided it was finally time to stop pushing her dreams to the back burner and pursue writing seriously.

In the third grade she wrote her very first story about a lost hamster. It earned rave reviews from both her teacher and her parents.

It only took her twenty years to start the next one.

It will not be about hamsters.
