Review - Devour by Andrea Heltsley

SupaGurl Tanya, with another review for you.




Blurb:
He wasn’t supposed to remember.

Callie is a royal vampire. She hunts by taking the blood from her victims and erases their memories afterwards. She goes undetected until a victim named Chase approaches her with all his memories intact. He is intrigued and attracted. She is terrified.  What happens when a human mixes with the immortal world? Chaos. 
Callie’s 18th birthday has passed and she is coming out at the annual blood ball. Will she find a mate or will she suffer the repercussions of her indiscretion? She is brought to the Vampire council and they must decide what to do with Chase. Do they kill him, or turn him to protect their secret?

About the Author:
 I’m a biologist turned writer.  I write YA/NA paranormal romance books mainly.  I’m the author of Devour and have several more books scheduled to come out later in 2013. I book blog for fun.  I also have a strong addiction to caffeine and fruit snacks.  You can find me in Tennessee with my husband and two Italian greyhounds.

If you ask anyone, I’m a total fangirl!  I love the entertainment industry.  I love Revenge and the Vampire Diaries on television.  My favorite movies are Elektra and P.S. I Love You.  I have a definite weakness for Tim Burton movies too. I’m beyond a huge fangirl for Shakira, both her English and Spanish music; Jack’s Mannequin comes in a close second.   I have too many favorite authors to list, but Kelley Armstrong and Rachel Vincent are two of them.  I’ve read all their books J
Review: 

Callie is a royal vampire; one of many.  She is young adventourous and ready to have some fun.  Her best friend is Jane and together they go "hunting" at their favorite bar.  Things are going great, she finds  Chase a very hot guy whom she senses there is something different about him, goes home with him and feeds on him.  She wipes his memory clean and then goes home just like every other week.  Well things are going fine except she has to prepare for the Blood Ball, a huge party for the upcoming girls who are of age and need to find a mate.  On her outing with her mom she bumps into the guy from the club he remembered everything!! From this moment, Callie knew her life would be different.  Now heading into the ball, she has the stress of the whole Chase situation but now is determined to find her mate.  Little did Callie know, she would find her true mate, Cody.  She has known Cody all of her life and hadn't looked at him any other way but as a friend until the ball.  So many things are happening for Cassie and she has to face the consequences of what may happen with having a human know about vampires, hoping that Cody will still love her and having to deal with the new feeling of being matted.

I absolutely loved this book!!!  I started reading it and couldn't put down so I finished it in one day!! Right from the beginning I loved Callie; young, adventurous and ready to take on the world well at least after college :)  The story flowed perfectly, with all the events cumulating into one "big" one where Cassie accepts whatever is coming her way.  She is a young girl who has to grow up fast and I feel that she does this perfectly.  I would definitely recommend this book to my friends in a heart beat!
What do you think, sound pretty good????  Well if you are interested there is a giveaway going on over on my blog, I would love for you to come over check it out, become a follower and of course join in the giveaway

Devour by Shelly Crane *Review*

ebook
Published October 31st 2011 (first published October 28th 2011

Clara has it all. A wrestling star boyfriend, popular friends, all the right school activities...pretty much a perfect life...up until her parents died. Now she lives with the Pastor and his family and though they take good care of her, she feels alone. Then her boyfriend, Tate, starts to show signs of trouble when a new guy, Eli, comes to town. Clara is fascinated with him but hides it until something happens. Eli confesses to her that she gives him something he's never had before...something he needs. Everything is about to change for this normal pretty popular girl in a supernatural way.

First off, I won this book from Mandy @ Twimom 101 Book Blog So big huge Thank you!!

If you don't know by now... I love everything about Shelly Crane's Books!  With that being said ...  This is what I look like when I get one of her books!! 

Review:

When I got this book I did not read the blurb *again you should know I do this often* Love to just see how the story plays out. So, I was fascinated by this story. We start with Clara who seems to have a Great life with an all american boyfriend, spirit squad and best friends. Well, it's not as great as it looks.


Clara... What an amazing character she is. She is stuck in this place in her life until she meets Eli and then things start changing for the better. You can see amazing growth from her, she was already a well rounded character but she gets even better. Her journey throughout is gripping and I cannot explain it all as I don't want to give anything away :) 

Eli... Oh here is another Awesome guy from the one and only #QueenOfSwoon! His story is just engrossing and he is an absolutely fascinating character! He's lived his whole life one way and then BAM! it's all flipped upside down for Clara. Such a great fit the two of them are! *found cool guy here on the net*

The "friends" hmmm I just really didn't like them and wanted to choke most of them... which means they were just well written too. I really did enjoy Patrick!! Can I just say I need more like right now!!  Again... If you haven't read this.. put it on your list your gonna want to GET IT NOW!
