Review - Deadbeat Druid by David R. Slayton
My rating: 
When we left our two heroes in the previous book, Vic, along with Jodi, had been pulled into the realm of the dead by Adam’s evil great-grandfather. Adam is determined to rescue his boyfriend, even if it means defying the immortals and making a deal with Death herself. It’s time for another road trip through the levels of the underworld where the living don’t belong and the normal rules don’t seem to apply.

Review - Claw'd by Vin George
My rating:
Pack alpha Gethin discovers an intruder in his house. Surprisingly, it’s a vampire. They should know better than to break into a shifter’s home. The man appears drugged and on the verge of bloodlust, but vampires are supposed to be impervious to narcotics. Gethin manages to subdue and bind the vampire. When the man recovers, he reveals his name to be Sorley, and he was indeed under the influence of some drug given to him by a man in a nightclub.
Review - Treasure for Treasure by R. Cooper
My rating:
Joe grew up in the small town of Everlasting on the northern California coast. A disastrous high school romance with a closeted jock made him leave town for college as soon as he finished high school. Longing for the sea, the redwoods, and something else he couldn’t identify made Joe return to Everlasting, where he works in the local coffee shop. Everlasting’s claim to fame is that it was protected by a fierce dragon.

Review - A Single Soul by L.A. Witt
My rating:
Matt is a very successful lawyer whose practice mainly involves negotiating disagreements between humans and tricksters, such as the fae. Nobody knows better than him that you don’t ask the fae for favors. In Matt’s defense, he was quite drunk when he poured his heart out to his matchmaker client about the poor state of his love life. That excuse won’t get him out of the contract, though. For now, Matt is stuck with an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other, charged with helping the man find a companion.

Review - Trailer Park Trickster by David R. Slayton
My rating:
Adam may have defeated an ancient evil spirit, barely, but he doesn’t have time to enjoy it, or explore the connection he has to Vic, the police officer whose life he saved. Adam’s Sight tells him his great aunt Sue is in danger. The woman was more of a mother to Adam than his own mother, so he rushes back to Guthrie to try to save her. What he finds there is much more than he bargained for.

Review - Running Ember by Meraki P. Lyhne
My rating:
Matt/Sköll and the other three “alphas of all” are getting ready to make an epic run through all of Scandinavia, gather other Vargr, Völsung, Sleipnir, and whatever other long-forgotten sibling races they can before leading them to Brussels to demand their rights be recognized. But, along the way, they uncover more clues to unlock the past. Those clues come at a cost, and understanding their implications may challenge the beliefs of Vargr, Cubi, and the other races.
Review - Warrior King by Eden Winters
My rating:
Draylon may be the second son of the emperor, and thus a prince, but he is first and foremost the commander of the imperial army, honor-bound to carry out the emperor’s orders, even if he doesn’t always agree with them. His latest task is to attack one of the empire’s kingdoms whose ruler was plotting to kill the emperor. Draylon succeeds in taking the castle, killing the errant king and his crown prince.
