The Siren and the Deep Blue Sea

 In Kerrelyn Sparks's the Siren and the Deep Blue Sea, the 2nd installment and the 5th book in the Embraced paranormal romance series, this magical tale would sweep you off your feet and carry you away with the tides.  Maeve had lived in a convent and adopted by four sisters who grew up to be princesses and queens except for her. All her life , she loved Brody since they were teenagers. During her search for him, she needs to locate the Embraced Army on the Isle of Secrets. Brody's not an ordinary human. Due to a curse, he shifts into a dog for most of his life and other animals of humans. After Queen Cahira blew up his father's ship and killed his brother, he was washed ashore and rescued by the Seer, Burien, and grew up on his land. Before the Seer died, he wanted Brody to take over for him to destroy Cahira and the Circle of Five. And he lived up to his promise to spy on the queen. But that's when he ran into Maeve and that complicated things for each other's journey. On the isle, Maeve learns a surprising secrets about her parents and her powers.Though they secretly loved each other for years, they had to defied the odds to fight good vs evil to get that happy ending they so much deserved. 

This is a beautiful paranormal romance with excellent visual descriptions and mesmerizing settings to take you there on a wild journey. I cared for Maeve, who longed for Brody, and wanted to fit in with her other sisters. She needed a sense of belonging to find her calling and to look for her own true love. I loved how she could shift into a seal, have a beautiful singing voice as a Siren, and later become a Seer and Queen. Talk about multi-tasking different powers to rule that world and give it a peaceful happy ending to the series. My heart went to Brody who was cursed to be a dog and had two hours of human life, when he wanted to be king and take Maeve as his wife. I also loved the side story of Brody's sister Elinor had found an expected love with Nevis Harden, a sea-faring general. The Isles of Moon, Mist and Secrets were mystical and magical for this paranormal romance for this fantastic novel. The themes are to follow your heart and love will set you free to battle evil. 

If you love to be transported to other places with heart-stopping drama, plenty of excellent magical action, tons of suspense, and a spark of romance, check out the Siren and the Deep Blue Sea today.

How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire

In Kerrelyn Sparks's How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire, the first installment in the Love at Stake paranormal romance series, this twisted love story would make you drop your jaw and give you goosebumps and some giggles. Roman Draganesti is rich, handsome, daring, and also a vampire. And when he lost one of his fangs, he needed a dentist... stat. And that's when he met Shanna Whelan, a mortal woman who's living in the Witness Protecton Program, and the only dentist who came help him... even under mind control. For Shanna, he protected her from the Russian mafia and from Ivan Petrovsky, a Russian coven leader who wants the both of them dead.  Between Shanna and Roman, they were opposites like night and day. But they were some kind of sparkling and brewing chemistry between them. Their relatonship wouldn't work out, since Shanna wanted a normal life and Roman wanted to make vampires have a better life too--making synthetic blood, a formula to keep them alive during the day. What's next? And then there were the problem with Roman's harem and that Shanna's father is part of the CIA's Stake-Out team to eradicate vampires. Between the two of them, they defied the odds in order to be together to have their own future.

This paranormal romance had some humorous moments and red-hot sexy scenes. I did care for Roman who waited for the right woman to give him hope and make him a better person. Some of his Highlander Guards were a bit charming as well. I also adored Shanna, who had her own issues and overcame her fear of blood. I've found Ivan a bit creepy as Hell. I did like the Romatech laboratory in NYC was made for a fascinating setting as the locations were vivid and bright with color. This would make you laugh out loud, feel chilled all over, feel faint, and swoon in this terrfic love story that has a bite to sink you teeth into... on the first page. It has explosive romance, drama, non-stop action and prickles of intrigue.
