The Others freed the  cassandra sangue  to protect the blood prophets from exploitation, not realizing their actions would have dire consequences. Now the fragile seers are in greater danger than ever before—both from their own weaknesses and from those who seek to control their divinations for wicked purposes. In desperate need of answers, Simon Wolfgard, a shape-shifter leader among the Others, has no choice but to enlist blood prophet Meg Corbyn’s help, regardless of the risks she faces by aiding him.

Meg is still deep in the throes of her addiction to the euphoria she feels when she cuts and speaks prophecy. She knows each slice of her blade tempts death. But Others and humans alike need answers, and her visions may be Simon’s only hope of ending the conflict.

For the shadows of war are deepening across the Atlantik, and the prejudice of a fanatic faction is threatening to bring the battle right to Meg and Simon’s doorstep.

THE NEW CHARLES AND ANNA NOVEL
Praised as “the perfect blend of action, romance, suspense and paranormal,"* the Alpha and Omega novels transport readers into the realm of the werewolf, where Charles Cornick and Anna Latham embody opposite sides of the shifter personality. Now, a pleasure trip drops the couple into the middle of some bad supernatural business…
For once, mated werewolves Charles and Anna are not traveling because of Charles’s role as his father’s enforcer. This time, their trip to Arizona is purely personal--or at least it starts out that way...
Charles and Anna soon discover that a dangerous Fae being is on the loose, replacing human children with simulacrums. The Fae’s cold war with humanity is about to heat up—and Charles and Anna are in the cross fire.

Sunday Book Share #129

 

 I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by The Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews; and Bought Borrowed and Bagged, hosted by TalkSupe. All of these memes are about sharing the print and digital books received and/or posts and events on the blog.

Snow. Sickness. Sleeplessness. Snow. Sickness. Sleeplessness. That was my week last week and likely this week too. It kinda sucks. One thing I've noticed the past few years is that I am becoming more prone to fevers. I heartily dislike this trend and wish it would cease. It's quite enough having bronchitis, sinusitis, and an asthma flare to deal without being hot enough to bake a cake while at the same time being freezing despite multiple layers of blankets and cranking up the thermostat. Seriously, who needs that? Bad body! I made it to the doctor and I'm on the heavy hitting drugs, hence the sleeplessness. 11 more days till I finish and sleep returns. But I'm feeling better so YAY!

I'm reading a romance, "Live", by Mary Ann Rivers. The quote is from 56%  in the ebook.

Destiny looked past Hefin's shoulder for a moment, closed her eyes for a moment too long, then abruptly stood up and went to the kitchen.
