Chasing Darkness ~ Review

Chasing Darkness 

by Julie Cassar

As Cecelia Walker embraces her gift of stealing Light, she learns of the horror that lurks in every shadow. A hellacious evil force seeks to quench its insatiable hunger for power. Which souls will fall in the path of its destruction?

Angels, Anninox, and other-worldly warriors wreak havoc and join in the battle for souls, while CeeCee and Cash find themselves as pawns in the center of this deadly game. Chasing the Darkness, they discover that all choices come with a cost. Will her power be enough to save them, or will it be used against her as Dark forces invade every inch of her life and threaten to drive a wedge between these long-lost soulmates?

Chasing Darkness brings back everything I loved about Stealing Light!, September 21, 2017 

There is so much going on in this world to keep you entertained...a classic good vs. evil with angels, fallen, the darkness that follows them, & an emotional avalanche that you don't even realize is upon you until it slams into your heart at full speed. Oh the feels!! 

Cash is back in full on protective smexy mode. Yet my favorite moments were him holding his girl tight ... his whole demeanor sends shivers down the spine with this tender loving attitude that is drool worthy. (Specifically a particular scene where she may have had a bit more "spirit" than expected.) I sure missed CeeCee & her snarky lil' self. She amuses me with her solo debates & sassy commentaries, & I admire how much she's grown emotionally & magically. (Not that you have much choice when some of the most powerful dark forces are determined to steal your light.) I enjoyed every minute of Azazel & his cronies battling it out. Then there's the newest guardian thinking he's all smooth & debonair while some might argue he's more of a pain in the arse. 😂

That ending though!!!!!! 😱

Of course, I have questions & am in need of book 3 ASAP!!!

Stealing Light by Julie Cassar

Publication Date: May 18, 2016

"Tonight, everything could change. I wasn’t ready to let go of anyone just yet."

If you could change what you know is coming, would you? Cecelia Walker discovers an amazing ability deep within herself that gives her the power to change the future. When mysterious outsiders enter her life, she begins to question everything and everyone she once knew. 

Years earlier, CeeCee’s life changed forever the day her parents were killed in a horrific car accident. Suddenly extraordinary people and bizarre events began to seep into her very small world. Surviving for years on her addiction to coffee and running, life suddenly deals her a game-changing wildcard and all bets are off. Her magnificent Gift of Light awakens a tremendous dark power wanting to steal what is hers. 

Will Cecelia be able to change what she’s seen and set a new course? Has she met her otherworldly match against evil and found her true soul mate? Or, is nothing is as it seems as the power of darkness threatens to consume her and those she loves.

Paranormal, thriller, guardian angels, demons, fallen, seers, supernaturals, family, emotions, awesome fight scenes, suspense, & so much more!, May 6, 2016 Julie Cassar never ceases to amaze me, & Stealing Light is definitely on my favorites list! This story is different from anything I've read lately & seriously rocks!!! The perfect balance of suspense, angst, romance (in between saving the world & all), & hotness. I am seriously in awe of the characters & worlds she creates. She doesn't miss a beat. All bases covered!!  Personally, I read a variety of genres (although my faves tend to be YA paranormal romances. Don't get me wrong, there are many adult books I have enjoyed as well, but it seems the new norm is all about the sex & not much else.) I adore romance, but I also want adventure, action, comedy, etc. And I LOVE thrillers & suspense like no other!  So, I always appreciate romance done tastefully!! A great romance must also have a great story with it, & Cassar never disappoints. I appreciate how she creates those steamy scenes without over sharing. Not to mention all of the other awesomeness she packs in. Her stories always succeed in transporting me to these far away worlds she magically weaves & I can't wait to see what is to come!! BTW... There are only a few authors that I have found that can truly make me laugh hysterically through the trembles and/or tears. You know, that whole anguished snort cry with fluids flying both directions...yep THAT Happened! I believe anyone who enjoyed her previous works will adore this one too. It's her style of writing that draws us in. Of course, the characters too, but they are addicting because of the unique spin she gives them. For all of the Cassar newbies ~ I have no doubt she will win you over as well! Enjoy!! Get your copy on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, & Kobo!

Forever Kansas ~ Review

Forever Kansas by Julie Cassar 

a Ruby Blue Series Companion Novel

Publication Date: November 14, 2014

“She will be the death of me one day. I swear, she will.”

In this companion novel to the best selling Ruby Blue Series, Brennan Kaelin, Fairy Prince and Heir to the throne of the Earthen Royal Court in Fey, reveals his inner most desires and struggles. In a world where the four Royal Courts and three Realms collide, an even deeper connection is unearthed as more secrets of Fey are exposed. Relive Ruby’s adventures through Brennan’s eyes as he searches to discover the mysteries shrouding the prophesy of the One with The Elements. 
*Author’s note: This novel is meant to be read after “Forever Blue” (Book 4 of the Ruby Blue Series). It discloses additional information to Ruby and Brennan’s story, however, some key plot points of Ruby Blue are intentionally left out

Psssssstttt....here's a little known secret: 
This cover, is the same exact image Julie used for book 1 "Ruby Blue"... and It's a photograph of driftwood on the beach at Lake Superior... She wanted to (as they say in the "Princess Bride"), Go back to the beginning...
Julie is so awesome!

Hoping there is a Forever Fey in the near future!, December 28, 2014

If this were on the big screen it would most definitely hit the Top 10 List of the year!!

I've been looking forward to this novel since I finished book 4, Forever Blue, but I was not sufficiently prepared for this magnitude of this journey. If you have read this fabulous series then you should understand (at least somewhat) my thoughts. Prepare yourself for the word vomit about to spew. I was utterly stunned & could not even write what I thought immediately. Talk about a book hangover!

For those of you that have not ... here goes: Julie has this magical way of transporting us right into this amazing world she has created with these characters who call to us even after a year of last reading their tales. It truly takes a talented author to be able to go back & re-tell this huge chunk of life full of so many memories & happenings of some of my all time favorite characters from a different POV without skipping a beat. A whole year later! I was thoroughly blown away by the fact that I enjoyed this story SO much more than I already had!! Especially being told by our favorite swoon worthy fairy! Aaaaahhh sweet Brennan!!

Now for those of you who have no idea who this hottie is let me fill you in a bit ... we have Ruby: the feisty teen who will make you giggle 'til it hurts, Leo: Ruby's lil' brother who loves to annoy & embarrass her whenever possible, Anya: one of Ruby's BFFs who happens to be a fairy princess (of all things! I know it's terrific!
