New purchases

Friday, my mom and I went to the mall to take Miss B to see Winnie The Pooh, and to kill time till the movie started, we hit Barnes & Noble, to have juice and a snack.
While we were sitting in the Starbuck's cafe area, I noticed a woman passing out flyers and signing books. Well, curiosity hit me, so I went over, and introduced myself. She introduced herself as Teresa Burrell. Author of the new book The Advocate's Betrayal. Crime and suspense. Not really my cup of tea of genre, but I decided to give it a try, she signed it, I told her about My Book Blog, still yet to read it cuz I have 2+ books to read. But here is the back cover:
"The killer left nothing behind but a rosary, a kitchen knife, and a dead man. But the dead man is a friend of Sabre Orin Brown. When his unsuspecting wife is accused of the murder, Sabre will stop at nothing to uncover the truth, even if it means unearthing chilling secrets. From a San Diego jail to the shady Chicago nightlife, sabre's search for the true killer forces her to face the question: What do you do when the ones you trust the most are the ones with the most to hide?"
Intriguing huh? huh? huh? :)
The next book that I purchased was today: Rose Pressey's Me and My Ghoulfriends. As you read in my previous blog, I LOVE HER!!! She's up there with my MaryJanice Davidson and Laurell K Hamilton and Michelle Barsley!!!
"There’s always fun to be had on a ghoul’s night out.

By day, Larue Donavan is a down-to-earth bookstore owner. But by night, she’s a world-renowned psychic investigator dedicated to helping lost spirits find peace. Dead people won’t leave her alone and Abraham Lincoln thinks he’s in charge of her lovelife. Larue can handle ghosts and undead presidents. It’s the living who drive her crazy.

When Callahan Weiss moves to town, the handsome newcomer opens a coffee shop right next door. She’s smitten from the start, but she’s not the only one — The boutique owner across the street has her eye on Callahan too, and uses witchcraft to fight dirty. When Callahan gets hit by a love spell, Larue will need more than a little help from her ghoul-friends to save the day…"

Only .99 @ Barnes and Noble nookstore!!!

Time for me to finish my other books, Mistral's Kiss by Laurell K Hamilton, Club Dead by Charlaine Harris . . .

Rose Pressey

So, I did it . . . I bought my first ebook, I had too, having Rose Pressey on my twitter and facebook, talking back and forth, and always mentioning How To Date A Werewolf, she twisted my arm, and I'm glad she did lmao.
How To Date A Werewolf, where to begin. Let's just say it sucked me in right away. I even went through withdrawls when my husband decided he was going to take his iPad with him to North Carolina for a business trip for a week. Letting her know, I was going a little crazy lol.
Riley, who is a werewolf, also the founder of Get A Mate matchmaking service, feels threatened (somewhat) by a former client Lily (also a werewolf) because of a bad match. Lily picketing her business, and getting harassed at the mall. She was also getting packages of silver bullets.
She meets Jack ( a new neighbor . . . ) sexy, smart, all-around-good-guy. But Riley is convinced nothing will happen between them because of a curse from an old gypsy lady decades ago. But she goes out with him while she's drooling away at his scent and muscular arms and chest. :)
Then, things start getting out of hand. A high-speed chase between Riley and her roommate Jennifer vs. 2 bad guys in another car. All they wanted to do was to go to the mall to get sexy underwear for Sir Jack. Two nasty ass werewolves chase Riley through town. Then Jack starts getting threats, the same silver bullets.
I said a bit more than what I'm supposed to lmao.
I totally recommend this book if you like werewolves, suspense, comedy, and romance.
Good job Rose!!! Expect me to buy some more of your yummy readings!!!

A Stroke of Midnight

A Stroke of Midnight, the fourth book in the Merry Gentry series, was very very sexy.
It started with Merry and her men in a press conference talking about the assassination attempt on her life. An idea that her aunt, Queen Andais, thinks would be a good idea.
After the press conference, a fellow fairy and a human was murdered in the sithen (a place for the fairies). So Merry, so worked as a private investigator in L.A., thought it would be a good idea to bring in the human cops, considering a human was murdered as well. Queen Andais wasn't really sure but if Merry wanted to have the throne, and Merry thought it
was smart, then she let it be. While the police were in the sithen, she is possessed by the Goddess, and with Mistral, the captain of Queen Adais guards (since Merry has Doyle *pronounced Dole), and brings spring to the sithen. She also wears the ring that the Queen has given her that chooses mates. The ring found Nicca (another of her men) and another fae. And finds that there is a child in the future for those two. The Queen was displeased because she was not able to do that, and pleased because there is a future for the fae with children.
Merry later finds out that she is the one who brings fertility. She later finds out that her cousin Prince Cel, who is the Queen's son, has been losing his people to Merry. Merry found out that a lot of Prince Cel's people really aren't his people. They were handed down from Prince Essus (Merry's father who was murdered when she was a teenager), and they went where they were told. And more and more of the assassination attempts were linked to her cousin (who is being tortured since the first book for the attempts on Merry's life). More truth comes out about Cel that freaks Merry out.
I love Laurell K Hamilton's books, whether it's Anita Blake or Merry Gentry. I am addicted, and people who haven't read her books, will be addicted as well the moment they pick up the first book on either series.

A Caress of Twilight

Undead & Unfinished

So, Tuesday was the release of the #9 book of the Undead series, Undead and Unfinished, I was up and at Barnes and Noble right when they opened so I can get a head start on the book.
I am so attracted to her books that I finish them within 24 hours lol.
So . . . on to the book . . .
So it started off with Betsy, refreshing everyone's mind about what previously happened in ALL the books, and then she meets her sister Laura (a.k.a. the Antichrist) at the mall. She then proceeds to get her sister to watch all these movies about Satan (Bedazzled, The Devil's Advocate, yada yada yada, u get the picture lol). After her sister leaves she is then visited by Laura's mother (Satan), and they get in this huge argument about how Betsy's going to need her sooner or later.
She, then goes to bed, and rants and raves at her husband Sinclair about how she hates November, she hates everything about it, and how Thanksgiving is all about the women cooking and cleaning while the men sit down and watch football, and sleeps and doesn't lift a finger.
She then realizes she doesn't really know anything about Sinclair or his assistant Tina.
She later finds out that Laura has been wanting to talk to her mother (Satan), and wants to visit hell. So, she agreed to let her go, under one condition, she goes to. So she sacrifices these unbelievably expensive shoes to call on Satan.
They go through a tour of Hell with Betsy's step-mother Antonia (a.k.a. The Ant), which I think is flippin hilarious lol, and Satan later proceeds to tell Laura that she wants Laura to take over since she looking to retire. Of course, Betsy so does not want this, but Satan cuts her off everytime lol.
Then to find out, they will be going through time traveling, which opens up a whole new can of worms.
I really, really, really want to talk about the period of them time traveling, but I don't want to, so if you are totally interested in reading this book, I recommend you read books 1-8 to get caught up, because then you will be totally lost. But, you will never get bored with these books.



These are in the order for you read, I also have the links to her website and her Facebook to get more information on the other books she has written and read the jacket cover . . .

Happy readings to all!!!

Karen Marie Moning

So, as I was waiting for my step-daughter to get out of class (I sat in the car the whole 2 hours waiting lol), I decided to bring my book Darkfever. Which, I am happy to finally announce, I'm done lol.
It was a good book and can't wait to read more of the series.
Basically, I started out with this young woman Mac Lane, finds out her older sister Alina was murdered in Dublin, Ireland, while she was there for school
Well, Mac left the states to go to Dublin to avenge her sisters murder. Throughout her first few days, she meets this guy Jerrico Barrons, who owns a book store. And come to find out Barron (whom she called), knows that Mac can see the fae in there real form (aka, can see through the glamour). So he uses her to find this book, I forgot what it's called lol, anyways, he has the same power as Mac
I'm not giving away too much detail, cuz a lot happens, I want everyone to find out on their own lol.
But they steal, they meet other fae that has powers and uses their glamour on their victims to kill them, yada yada yada lol
I found this book really emotional because it is a character finding her sisters killer, and emotions running a muk and secrets revealed
Do I recommend? Totally

Here's her website to get to know the author:

Here we go . . .

So, here it is, Tuesday. What have I done in the reading? Not much lol . . . if you follow http://lacey-lacey-mybookblog.blogspot.com/ you will know what I mean lol.
But, I have been sneaking in some reading whenever I can, like right now I'm reading Karen Marie Moning's Darkfever, which is the 1st in the fever series. Right now, I'm at the point where Mackayla and Jerricho go to this boxer's house (I don't remember the name, the book is in the hallway on the floor where I left it lol), but I'm jumping ahead.
I picked up where I left off where Mackayla is pretty much demolishing her sister's apartment in Ireland to find this journal, which in the hopes of Mackayla, will unveil the person who murdered her. And then on her way back to the book store (which Jerricho owns and resides), she runs into this fae who claims he's a prince, and his power is obviously sex. And while she's having this conversation with him, her shirt is always going up, lol, and she's always having to pull it down, and at one point all of her clothes came off hahaha. Anyways, she finds out the queen of the Seelie wants this book that Jerricho is also looking for and is part of the clue that Mackayla's sister has reveiled to her.
I know, it doesn't seem like that there was that much reading, but there was, and I'm hoping to put in some more, but first must clean house, and do my yoga.
If you follow me on twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/miss_lovlylacey, you will get automatic updates, and just some out of the blue trivia and get a #FF for newcomers, and follow my blog mentioned above to get an insight of what I've been doing during the week lol
