Release Blitz: Infernium by Keri Lake

Image
Infernium (Nightshade #2) by Keri Lake Release Date: June 30, 2022 About Infernium Pain is an abyss. How naive of me to think I’d already reached the very depths of it when fate shook my world with a crushing blow. It turns out, there are fathomless levels of pain, like a winding labyrinth of doors leading to shadowy figures and long-forgotten secrets. The kind of inescapable descent into madness that twists nightmares into reality. What lies at the end of this obscure path I have yet to discover, but where it begins, is a place called Infernium. An asylum, feared by those in Nightshade and untrodden by the angels who’ve forsaken its many lost souls. Some say it’s the gateway to hell. Others believe it’s where you go when the last flicker of hope dies out. . For me, it’s where I’ve damned myself for eternity–my penance for a crime against the heavens, and home to the demons that claw at my mind. Yet, not even they stand a chance against my dark angel, Jericho. He fear...

Review: Infernium by Keri Lake (Nightshade #2)

Image
Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Give Me Books Promotions. Infernium is the highly anticipated sequel to Keri Lake's Nightshade , which was on quite a few year-end best books lists in 2021, mine included. The books in this duet MUST be read in order-- Nightshade prior to  Infernium --because this is the continuing story of Farryn Ravenshaw and Jericho Van Croix. Might I suggest that you read the conclusion to Farryn and Jericho's duology over the weekend because this is a really lengthy novel, so you're going to want to invest a fair bit of time in order to see how it all wraps up for these two. Suffice it to say that my expectations were extremely lofty for this book given how much I was into the one that came before it. This new book is told from at least four perspectives, although mostly fro Jericho's and Farryn's. There are also quite a few triggers that can be found on Keri Lake's website--or feel free to click here  fo...

Nothing Special by Casey Cox Date Released: June 27, 2022 About Nothing Special They don't write romance novels about guys like me… Benji Trust me, I know. Crafting swoon-worthy happily ever afters is literally my day job. Being a quirky introvert with an overactive imagination, underwhelming social skills, and a few pounds overweight, I'm no leading man. My best friend, though? He's total cover model, call the plumber because I just flooded my basement material. He's also outgoing, charismatic, free-spirited, and basically the best guy ever. I may know romance, but I'm no dummy when it comes to reality. I'm nothing special. And the truth is, a guy like Darren would never fall for someone like me. Darren I'm the poster child for failure to launch. Twenty-seven, didn't make it in Hollywood, forced to slump my sorry self back home to Australia with my tail in between my legs. The only bright spot in my life is nabbing the apartment next ...

Review: Nothing Special by Casey Cox

Image
Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Foreword PR & Marketing. I've adored almost all the books I've read from Casey Cox (although I still have to get started on his Escape and 99 Daddies  series) while his Vet Shop Boys series remains a personal favorite, his new standalone is certainly a noteworthy one that worked its way into my heart. Nothing Special is the story of Benjamin Bannister and Darren Griffin, two twenty-seven-year-olds that have been the best of friends from the moment they met. Benji is a bestselling author who writes M/F romance under a pseudonym, while Darren is an aspiring actor who returns to Brisbane to work for his father during the day and bartending in the evenings after failing to make it big in Hollywood. The two are now neighbors as well, but as close as these two may be, they're both keeping certain secrets from each other. When Benji suffers writer's block for an upcoming friends-to-lovers novel, Darren o...
