Book Review: Storm by Alyssa Rose Ivy

Storm (The Empire Chronicles #5) by Alyssa Rose Ivy
Genre: New Adult (Paranormal Romance)
Publication Date: December 3, 2015
Publisher: Self

Underneath our greatest flaws lie our greatest strengths.

Jared barely has time to process the revelation that his mother is a witch before his life is once again turned upside down. He wakes up in a time and place he thought he had left behind with no clue how to get out. When Vera shows up the stakes are even higher.

Racing to find a way back to reality and to fix mistakes, both must face new truths about their identities, and what they are made of.

Storm is the fifth and final book in the Empire Chronicles by Alyssa Rose Ivy. Whew! This series really took me places. Seriously! Even back in time. Jared has been my favorite from the beginning, so I'm so happy he's met his match in Vera. Vera is a female version of Jared, so watching their relationship grow with all the bantering and chemistry has been a lot of fun. This book takes us back in time to just before Levi and Allie meet. So, there's that chance they don't meet at all this time around. Yikes! How would that change things? I don't want to give too much away, but much can go wrong if the past is altered, much can go right too. I think I've said this before, but if I haven't, this series is a must read, and I highly recommend you starting from the very beginning with the Crescent Chronicles. These books are just that good.

Release & Review! Savor by Alyssa Rose Ivy

Savor (The Empire Chronicles #4) by Alyssa Rose Ivy

Genre: New Adult (Paranormal Romance)

Expected Publication: April 30, 2015

Publisher: Self

Jared is Vera's perfect man—until he opens his mouth. An incredible body and set of wings can only go so far when everything he says seems designed to make her mad. Still, she can't deny her intense attraction or the fact that he is the closest thing she has to a friend.

Jared doesn't go for bear shifters, especially ones that are related to his ex, but he can't resist Vera's charm or the way she understands him better than anyone else. 

As suspicions build and loyalties are tested, Vera and Jared realize that they may not be able to trust anyone but each other.

Savor is the fourth book in the Empire Chronicles by Alyssa Rose Ivy. Jared's story!! Yay finally!! Like I said about the last book... Jared has met his match. Vera and Jared are so entertaining. The chemistry between them is palpable and they are so stinkin' funny. This book was full of action and the kind of romance you can feel as you read. Jared has been my favorite since the Crescent Chronicles because of his attitude and overall snarky personality. There's lots to be done for both of the characters within this story, and when you have Jared and Vera in one book, it's impossible to put it down. Ready for more good news? Their story isn't finished yet.

“I’m glad you don’t want me dead.” He smirked. Even his smirk was sexy.
“I’d be on my own if you were.” I put my hands behind my head.
“And you don’t like being alone?” He studied me in the darkness. Sometimes I wished neither of us had night vision. It left you so naked, never having an opportunity to hide.
“I do most of the time.”
“But not always?” His eyes raked over my body. The fact that he could make such a platonic conversation feel sexual gave me even more reason to resist him.
“Why does it matter?” Often the best way to avoid a question is to ask your own.
“It matters because I asked it.” And there went his mouth again.
My annoyance gave me back my will power. “Put a shirt on.”
“Why?” He grinned. “Am I distracting you?”
“No, but we should go. The sun will be up soon enough.”
“Maybe I shouldn’t go with you.” He sat up, swinging his legs off the side of the bed.
“No way.” I moved to standing. “You’re not backing out.”
“Why do you care?” He stood with his back to me. “You can do this alone.”
“Of course I can.”
He turned to me. “Then why does it matter if I go my own way?” He pulled on his t-shirt, and a little part of me missed the view.
“Because we agreed to help each other out. I stick to my promises.” That was one of my good traits. The not so good traits weren’t worth reflecting on.
“Maybe I don’t.”
“You do.” I put a hand on my hip. I didn’t have time for Jared’s games.
“How do you know?”
“I just do.”
“You’re infuriating.”
I groaned. “And what are you?”
“Charming.”
If I’d had liquid in my mouth I would have spit it out. “Not exactly the word I’d use to describe you.”
“Says the girl begging me to stay with her.”
“I never begged.” I crossed my arms over my chest.
“Would you beg?” His grin was his undoing.
“Is that how you like it, Jared? With your women begging?”
“I wasn’t talking about how I like my women.”
“Are you sure about that?” I grabbed my backpack and headed into the cabin’s small bathroom.
“Where are you going?”
I paused with my hand on the door. “To shower.”
