Birth of the Nyxian ~ Review

Birth of the Nyxian 
by Amanda R. Browning

May 9, 2012
 

Blurb: 
Harlow Garrington is a twenty-six year old woman left alone in the world when her family perished in a tragic accident. She led a quiet life and lived in her books until a chance meeting brought Aiden into her life. He was smart, sexy, and chivalrous-- everything she wanted in a man. There was just one problem, he was also an eight hundred year old vampire. Nearly a thousand years ago, vampires split into two factions. Those who chose to sacrifice their souls for immortality were pure evil, without a shred of humanity left. They existed to kill and terrify. Those turned by force, like Aiden, were able to retain some of their humanity and did not need to kill to survive. Harlow found everything she ever wanted from life with Aiden, but his love was not without a price. Aiden has long been coveted by Hades because he stood out from other vampires. When their love is discovered, Harlow's life is in jeopardy. Aiden convinces Harlow to flee with him, hoping to keep her safe until he can come up with a plan. Will Harlow get to spend a lifetime with Aiden, or will she be forced to make The Immortal Choice? Their journey takes them across the world, encountering all kinds of magic and monsters and even a few Greek gods, coming to a stunning conclusion that may change the fate of humanity. Full of action, history, drama, and intrigue, Birth of the Nyxian is a steamy paranormal romance with so much more than romance!
My Review:

5 Star
5 Star Fabulous!!!!!, August 13, 2012
FABULOUS book!!! 5 Star Fabulous!!!!! This book is awesome to say the least! It is full of action, adventure, romance, true love, seduction, emotional turmoil, & paranormal greatness! It's got vampires, goddesses/gods, demons, nymphs, necromancers, & all sorts of other worldly fun! I LOVED it!!
Harlow appears to be this shy normal loner of a woman just living her life, but soon shines as this brilliant heroine that could take on the world. Her quirkiness & love of history make her truly unique, & made me want to get to know her more & more. And then there's Aiden....the vampire of her dreams who brings it like no other! He takes seduction & lust to a whole new level, & his chivalrous ways would have any woman swooning before him. His background story intrigued me & had me yearning to learn more.
Amanda Browning's attention to details & the extensive thought she put into her story truly amazes me!! I love how she brought history & mythology into the mix without any of it seeming out of place! This book will send you on a roller coaster of emotions from beginning to end & you'll be begging for more! ;*} I am looking forward to the next book for sure!

 Hello all! I appreciate you stopping by and showing an interest! I am Amanda Browning, paranormal fiction author. I've been married to a wonderful man for the last eight years and we have four children together. Our oldest is in kindergarten and the youngest is four.
We live out in the country in southern Indiana and one of my favorite things to do is stargaze on a clear new moon night. I have always loved writing, but I haven't done much for the last few years, preferring to read instead. My husband bought me a Kindle for my 27th birthday and I went on a reading binge that frankly was a little crazy. When I finally leveled off, I found that I felt more creative. I was complaining about having nothing to read and my brother told me, "Write something." And thus my epic journey into authordom began....
I contacted Candy Crum on Facebook after I read her book because I loved it and wanted to tell her so. We became fast friends and she encouraged me to write a submission for an anthology contest she was having. Less than two months later, I am a published author! :D
My first short story, The Legacy of Lilith, a vampire origin story, was published in The Withering Darkness: A Paranormal Horror Compendium in December 2011. 2012 Will be an amazing year for me! I have three more stories coming out in two separate anthologies and my full length novel coming out around March. I have met some truly amazing people that have helped and encouraged me to continue writing and sharing my stories with the world.

Blurb:
 Before Lilyann stepped into her destiny to lead the coven, there was another powerful Moon witch...her grandmother.

A teenage witch-to-be in Galway, Ireland, Leeny Moon was prepared to take her rightful place in the circle along side of her family. That was until she witnessed firsthand the forthcoming nightmares she would be expected to face, vampires.

The fight between good versus evil begins here...

Blessed Be~

My Review:
5 Stars
Greatness!!, July 2, 2012
This novella is GREATNESS!! I enjoyed reading it from beginning to end, &I was left wanting more more more! Leeny & Colleen remind me of my girls in many stages of the story. Seeing the very realness of their duties to protect & what that entailed through young Leeny's eyes was a great idea! A VERY GOOD READ! And...Off I go to purchase Compulsion (the first full length novel in the Moon Coven series). =*} Thanks for getting me hooked!


Book Trailer:

Best Selling Author, K.B. Miller is a proud native of Baltimore, Maryland. She’s also a football nut! That's right fellas, she’s a DIE-HARD Ravens fan! How's that for ballsy? 

Currently she resides in a tiny valley nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Pennsylvania with her husband and son (both Steelers fans ─ eww!), two energetic puppies ─ Copper Dude and Cullen Edward, and her mouthy blue front Amazon Parrot, Poppy.

She’s been writing for as long as she can remember, but two years ago her loving husband─ who believed in her talent, finally gave her a gentle push... actually, according to her, it was really more of a kick... in the lower back-upper thigh region. She claims it hurt. After a few restless nights she decided to allow everyone to meet all of the crazy characters in her head, and here we are.

K.B. has as her family calls it, a ridiculous addiction to hats, shoes, sunglasses, owls, and coffee. No problems there, right? That's what she said.

Welcome to K.B.-land, it's a lot like Disneyland only without all of the endless lines, overly happy people and it doesn’t cost you an arm and a leg! LOL

My Review:

5 Stars
This book was one of my first paranormal loves!
WOW!!, May 26, 2012
Wow WOW Wow!!! I am totally addicted to her books!!!! I began my journey with Jennifer Malone Wright in her free download of Vampire Hunter's Daughter Pt. I after my teen urged me to read it. I was instantly hooked! I immediately purchased the next Pt. II, III, IV, & V in her series, & read them all within 2 days. (Having 4 children of my own I don't always get as much reading time as I'd like, but I was so anxious to see what was to come in each that I stayed up way too late reading until I finished them all without even realizing it.) Sadly this was when I realized Pt. VI was not yet released, so I searched for more of her writings to satisfy my craving. I was very excited to see what this novel had to offer, & to be perfectly honest I simply could not put this book down!!! It sucked me in, & refused to allow distractions. Every bit of it held my full attention, & I shall await the next on pins & needles to see what is to come! She has a knack for bringing her characters to life!! They feel so real & make me want to know more about them & their lives. The battles are intense & feel like you're right there in the action. You won't regret reading it!!
UPDATE....If you have read any of her books you will be pleased to know that Part VI of the The Vampire Hunter's Daughter was Greatness! Hopefully we will be reading her following series Arcadia Falls & a sequel to The Birth of Jaiden SOON!!

Savior (A Higher Collective Novel) Cover Reveal by Jennifer Malone Wright


* * Cover Reveal * *


Formerly... The Birth of Jaiden by Jennifer Malone Wright

Savior (A Higher Collective Novel)

Alexander Lucas is a man of faith, casino owner, and vampire. He should
be living the Reno high life of riches and immortality. Instead, he
wakes each night despising the blood on his hands and begging for a
reason to continue on.

The last beat of his heart took place shortly after losing his family to a gruesome and violent death. One snowy night, the creature who had been stalking him finally took his life, in turn giving him the gift of immortality. Yet, immortality to
Alex is not a gift, but rather a curse to live in eternal pain.

Nearly a century of tortured existence leads him to a dumpster in a dark alley
where he finds a reason for continuing on. Nestled between bits of
debris and rubbish a tiny infant wails for help. He calls for his best
friend and guardian angel, Danielle, who explains to him that he has
been chosen to raise this baby, for she would some day become a very
powerful, natural witch. She tells him it is now his job to protect her
from the enemy who wants her so badly, yet also to be her father.

Thinking this angel is out of her mind, Alex refuses many times until Danielle
convinces him that the enemy, Malcolm and his wife Levine, cannot obtain
the child and that they are, indeed attempting to find her. He must
keep her safe, because if evil hands raise her than she will grow to
possess the power to annihilate them all.

Luckily, Alex is not alone, he has The Higher Collective to assist in his mission. With the combined powers of the Vampires, Angels, Dark Angels, Witches and
Warlocks, The Higher Collective prepares for a battle to protect the
child from the evil she may possibly inherit.
