Pure Sacrifice

I stayed up Way past my bedtime to finish this. Fun and sweet. Love is Triumphant!! :-DBaddies all got what they had coming in a satisfying way.Have tissues ready for Christmas break in Iowa. (sniffles)first 40 or 45% of the book was pretty PG/PG-13 (but still Hot). Last half of the book definitely rated R.other comments from my household:Husband - did not read, but rates it 5 stars ;-) Says he is looking forward to me reading the next book in the series. (tehehe)Corgi Dog - Loves Molly but thin [...]

Honestly, I'm quite sad that I finished reading it already, but the story was so gripping that it was hard not to read so fast!Onto the specifics, the tension and pacing were handled very well, in that it was never boring. Many scenes were quite emotional too, and I really empathized with the characters. The opening scene was amazing in how it instantly pulled me in by the POV character's emotions.As for the characters, I really, really loved Markos, even from the start! He's so cute, funny, lov [...]

If you are a book addict as I am, you will be familiar with the exquisite torture of finding a book that is pure enjoyment to read (even if the emotional ride is a roller coaster) and then discovering that you are coming to the end, that there are fewer and fewer pages – or electrons - between your finger and the back cover. This is my happy problem with Pure Sacrifice. I don’t - I didn't - want it to end.Look, I’m a guy and most of you are probably women deciding whether or not to buy Jam [...]

Okay, I'm going to level with you. This is the first hetero-romance I've read in a very long time where I made it past the first couple of chapters. Not only that, I stayed up well past midnight (on a school night no less) to read as far as I could.The characters, setting and world-building meshed to create a fascinating read. Markos was amazingly conflicted in his desire to help Celia and resist succumbing to her charms. Celia for her part was strong but not at the cost of her femininity and al [...]

Markos, Celia Hawkins, Molly (black and white Border Collie) miss "Auntie" and yet there are many friends that are waiting in the wings for Celia to meet. More love than she and Markos can ever keep to themselves! The magic they create goes out to the lands of mythos and earth to heal both lands.A page turner, and again I started with book 2 and need to contact the author and see if she is interested in allowing me to peek at book 1. Lol

As you can see, I had a hard time putting this book down. I give it a solid 4.5 out of five stars.It misses five stars simply because I feel like the depth of these characters is questionable. I like them, adore them.I love the Mythos Plane and I can't wait to discover more about it. I enjoyed the brief mention of the first book's heroine and the obvious hint toward the heroine (a fairy) of the next book. This is a perfect sort of series - where each story stands alone but the characters may app [...]

Got the book as part of giveaway. Thanks to the author.Review to come.
