It’s going to be hard to choose between all these temptations this week.
There are a few that are rising to the top of my list though…what about yours? Leave me a comment and
let me know what’s tempting you this week.
Fire Touched by Patricia Briggs
Mercy Thompson, #9
Tensions between the fae and humans are coming to a head. And when
coyote shapeshifter Mercy and her Alpha werewolf mate, Adam, are called upon to stop a rampaging troll,
they find themselves with something that could be used to make the fae back down and forestall out-and-
out war: a human child stolen long ago by the fae.
Defying the most powerful werewolf in the country, the humans, and the
fae, Mercy, Adam, and their pack choose to protect the boy no matter what the cost. But who will protect
them from a boy who is fire touched?
Map of Fates by Maggie Hall
The Conspiracy of Us, #2
That’s how long it took for Avery West’s ordinary life to change forever: In
two weeks, she discovered she was heiress to a powerful secret society known as the Circle, learned her
mother was taken hostage by the Circle’s enemies, and fell for a boy she’s not allowed to love, just as she
found out another was her unwelcome destiny.
Now, Avery crosses oceans in private jets to hunt for clues that will uncover
the truth about the Circle, setting her mom and herself free before it’s too late. By her side are both the
boys: Jack—steady, loyal, and determined to help her even at the expense of his own duty—and Stellan,
whose connection to Avery grows stronger by the day despite her best intentions, making her question
what she believes at every turn.
But at the end of a desperate hunt from the islands of Greece to the red
carpet at Cannes comes a discovery that not only changes everything, but could bring the whole world to
its knees. And now Avery is forced to face the truth: in the world of the Circle, no one is what they seem.
Marked in Flesh by Anne Bishop
The Others, #4
Since the Others allied themselves with the cassandra sangue, the
fragile yet powerful human blood prophets who were being exploited by their own kind, the delicate
dynamic between humans and Others changed. Some, like Simon Wolfgard, wolf shifter and leader of the
Lakeside Courtyard, and blood prophet Meg Corbyn, see the new, closer companionship as
beneficial—both personally and practically.
But not everyone is convinced. A group of radical humans is seeking to
usurp land through a series of violent attacks on the Others. What they don’t realize is that there are older
and more dangerous forces than shifters and vampires protecting the land that belongs to the
Others—and those forces are willing to do whatever is necessary to protect what is theirs.
Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton
Rebel of the Sands, #1
Mortals rule the desert nation of Miraji, but mystical beasts still roam the
wild and barren wastes, and rumor has it that somewhere, djinni still practice their magic. But there's
nothing mystical or magical about Dustwalk, the dead-end town that Amani can't wait to escape
from.
Destined to wind up "wed or dead," Amani’s counting on her sharpshooting
skills to get her out of Dustwalk. When she meets Jin, a mysterious and devastatingly handsome
foreigner, in a shooting contest, she figures he’s the perfect escape route. But in all her years spent
dreaming of leaving home, she never imagined she'd gallop away on a mythical horse, fleeing the
murderous Sultan's army, with a fugitive who's wanted for treason. And she'd never have predicted she'd
fall in love with him...or that he'd help her unlock the powerful truth of who she really is.
Return of the Witch by Paula Brackston
The Witches Daughter, #2
After five years in the Summerlands, Gideon has gained his freedom.
Elizabeth knows he will go straight for Tegan, and that she must protect the girl she had come to regard as
her own daughter. In the time since she the dramatic night in Batchcombe woods, Tegan has travelled the
world learning from all manner of witches, and she is no longer the awkward teenager and novice
spellcaster she once was. However, her skills are no match for Gideon's dark, vengeful power, and he
succeeds in capturing her. Will Elizabeth be able to find her? Will they be able to defeat their nemisis once
and for all?
In a breathless journey that takes them through history, witch pursues
warlock. Three people steeped in magic weave a new story, but not all will survive until the end.
Shades of Darkness by A.R. Kahler
Ravenborn, #1
But the past has a way of returning when least expected.
Kaira knows that what happened before, at her old school, wasn’t normal.
She knows that what happened to her ex-boyfriend wasn’t natural. But she refuses to believe that the
recent death on campus, the one that left everyone on edge, has anything to do with her. She refuses to
believe that she could be at fault again.
But just as the past always returns, the truth can never stay hidden for
long.
Even if Kaira didn’t cause the first death at Islington, or the second, or the
third, she has the ability to find out who did. She has the obligation to stop whatever is coming to campus.
To end the darkness that is falling with the same snow that once blanketed the woods in beauty.
But to embrace this power—to relinquish herself to the ancient entity that
has been lurking in the corners of her mind–is to let go of her humanity…and Kaira doesn’t know how far
she can go before she loses herself completely.
The Great Hunt by Wendy Higgins
The Great Hunt, #1
A strange beast stirs fear in the kingdom of Lochlanach, terrorizing towns
with its brutality and hunger. In an act of desperation, a proclamation is sent to all of Eurona—kill the
creature and win the ultimate prize: the daughter of King Lochson’s hand in marriage.
Princess Aerity understands her duty to the kingdom though it pains her to
imagine marrying a stranger. It would be foolish to set her sights on any particular man in the great hunt,
but when a brooding local hunter, Paxton Seabolt, catches her attention, there’s no denying the unspoken
lure between them…or his mysterious resentment.
Paxton is not keen on marriage. Nor does he care much for spoiled royals
and their arcane laws. He’s determined to keep his focus on the task at hand—ridding the kingdom of the
beast and protecting his family—yet Princess Aerity continues to challenge his notions with her
unpredictability and charm. But as past secrets collide with present desires, dire choices threaten
everything Paxton holds dear.
Inspired by the Grimm Brothers’ tale, “The Singing Bone,” New York
Times bestselling author Wendy Higgins delivers a dark fantasy filled with rugged hunters,
romantic tension, outlawed magic, and a princess willing to risk all to save her people.
