Review:
Being an anthropologist is dirty work, but somebody has to do it. Goldie Locke is searching northern Scotland for the find of her career. Her archaeological partner finds love in the Scottish Highlands. Will Goldie find that tablets she is looking for? Or will she find more than she was looking for?I loved the story!! It starts out with the main character working at her dig and then her “dream” comes true. I loved the way it all tied together in the end. Travel with Goldie and she searches for the lost tablets. The characters were very interesting and each played their part in true form. I gave this book a 4.5. I would recommend this book for everyone to read. Very sexy love scenes. If you love fairy tales, you'll love the twist this author gives the story.. Find out which love interest is too hard, too soft, and just right!!

Review

Valkyrie a vampire must leave her home of the forest with her son Anthony a dhampir to save him. He must have some of his fathers’ blood or he will die. They must venture into the city to find his father. A human she has not seen in years. Once there they must learn to fit into the human world go through many trials.

This story was well written and was interesting all the way to the end. Nice to see the main character of Valkyrie (the female vampire) having doubts and being scared instead of the usual vamp female who gets every man she sees. I enjoyed the interaction between her and her son Anthony as well. He had the typical adolescent reactions to all he learns when they are in the human world. Being a mother myself I sympathized with Valkyrie when she and her son argued.The two go through many adventures in the city and at one point they are separated and Valkyrie must ask humans for help. Once she finds a man that she thinks is Anthonys’ father she must enlist his help in finding her son.

Valkyries struggles with what she is and how to be more human were interesting to say the least. She must learn to act human and how to interact with others without turning into a monster. Many trials await her in this story. There are many twists in this book, some you see coming and others take you by surprise.I gave this book a 3.5 because it kept you guessing to the end and kept the reader entertained till the last page. The plot was continuous and never repetitive.
Angela Lam Turpin did a good job with descriptions and character depth. Even with it’s many characters and places this story was never confusing and always had the reader turning the page for more.

Marissa is a princess born and raised, on her way to her wedding. Bardak is captain of her guards. When an evil plot leads to their caravan being overtaken and destroyed, Marissa and her maid are at the mercy of a minor wizard and his devious companions. A magic spell meant to make them pliant and willing backfires and instead of being mindless zombies, Marissa and Bardak exchange
bodies. Still hell bent on protecting the princess, even in her physically weak body, Bardak fights and schemes to keep them all alive while Marissa struggles to maintain her identity inside Bardak's masculine body.

Prisoner of Gender was a surprise. It was graphic and violent so not for those who are looking for a gentle story. There is humor in the characters finding the pitfalls of the opposite sex and literally walking in another's shoes. Mr. Bushore kept an intriguing balance between the humor and horrors and I enjoyed it. Not everyone will find it to their taste but I give it four flames because it was an interesting book and those aren't always easy to find.
