With each book I read in the Skye Druids series the more Donna Grant blows my mind. STILL OF THE NIGHT, the 5th installment, bLove amongst the turmoil
With each book I read in the Skye Druids series the more Donna Grant blows my mind. STILL OF THE NIGHT, the 5th installment, brings even more tension, suspense, and mystery to this already mesmerizing series. Once again, the pace, action, and drama doesn't let up keeping the pages constantly turning. The need to know what was happening next was addictive.
Ariah is known as a child of the forest by the other Druids. The surrounding forest is where she draws her magic from, but something is not right, a dark evil is lurking in the air. Killian Flanagan has returned to Skye to win back the love of his life, Ariah. Years ago, he had chosen his family over her and he was back to rectify that mistake. Unknowingly, Killian has found himself caught up in a world he knew nothing about. Ariah, not wanting her heart broken again, rejects Killian, keeping the walls around her heart intact. Killian is determined to win her back, and when he is seriously injured Ariah's walls crumble, knowing she cannot lose him.
Donna Grant's storytelling is sublime. The worlds she creates are incredible, and I love that she brings in characters from her previous books, maintaining the intricate threads of connection. STILL OF THE NIGHT continues the complex story of the Skye Druids battle against an unknown enemy and the darkness that lurks on the Isle. There were numerous twists and turns which kept me on the edge of my seat, I can't wait to see what Donna delivers next.
Finally, the story I have waited almost a decade for, and boy was the wait worth it. DRAGON BORN is book #8 in Donna Henry's story has finally arrived
Finally, the story I have waited almost a decade for, and boy was the wait worth it. DRAGON BORN is book #8 in Donna Grant's Dragon Kings series, and once again it was another suspenseful, enlightening, and unputdownable read. Ms. Grant kept me on the edge of my seat with her perfectly paced words and her use of vivid imagery.
Henry North, former MI5 agent and now JusticeBringer for the Druids, has always intrigued me since his introduction in Bana's novel Dawn's Desire. Henry has been a constant in the Dragon Kings' world, while he has no magic, he does have the ability to sense Druids. This sense has led him to Zora, where he believes there is something bad happening, or about to. Melisse is Queen of the Violets; she is considered to be the most dangerous and powerful dragon ever. Melisse is not only a dragon, but she is also half Fae. Her life has been a tragic one, spending most of it held captive by the dragon kings until Con set her free. She's disillusioned though, she has no sense of belonging.
The brambles, a mysterious forest of vines, is a place dragons are not allowed to enter, because once they enter, they never return. When Melisse learns a young pink dragon has entered the brambles she decides to follow and retrieve him. She wasn't expecting to lose her powers or become injured and have no way of calling for help. Henry has defied Con and returned to Zora, his senses leading him to the brambles, he needs to find the mysterious Druid he feels, and also save Melisse in the process. Nothing is as Henry expects, there is plenty of tension within the brambles, Melisse is not herself, he receives a surprise, and the Druid has her own surprising and heartbreaking story.
Since their first meeting at Dreagan Henry and Melisse had an instant connection, he was smitten, she was interested but needed to learn who she was now she was no longer in captivity. Being trapped in the brambles, and while Henry is trying to heal Melisse, the connection between the two deepens. When the heat and spice finally occur, they smoulder, I always knew they would be hot together. After everything they have had to endure this is a couple who deserve to find some happiness.
Donna Grant's incredible imagination had me mesmerized, her vivid description of the brambles made me feel as though I was there. I loved that Con, Rhi, Eurwen, Brandt, and other Dragon Kings played a role in this story. Their acceptance of the Druid's story and their willingness to help her, once again showed the desire to ensure Zora remains a peaceful realm. A battle with the evil Villette was a given, resulting in some surprising consequences. The Epilogue gives a glimpse of Merrill, hopefully his book will be next. I am totally addicted to Ms. Grant's Cark Universe, and DRAGON BORN was another exceptional addition and I can't wait for more.
I love nothing more than curling up and submerging myself in the world of fantasy that Donna Grant creates. Kindred: The FatedExceptional Storytelling
I love nothing more than curling up and submerging myself in the world of fantasy that Donna Grant creates. Kindred: The Fated Trilogy is another of those series Donna has delivered that I couldn't put down, and now they're altogether in one magnificent book.
RAGE Book #1
Be prepared to be drawn into a world of Witches, Warlocks, Gira, Nymphs, and mere mortals. This is the story of Elin and Rob.
After the war with the Coven Elin has escaped to the Scottish Highlands to live a life in solitude and free of magic. An abandoned cottage far away from any people becomes her new home, she's comfortable and self-sufficient, and very much alone. Or so she thinks. Rob Mackenzie, out riding on his family's land, discovers Elin living in the old cottage. A friendship develops between the two, but there is a secret, one that could change everything.
Keeping her magic a secret from Rob is not easy for Elin, especially when a mysterious illness infects members of the Mackenzie Clan, but Elin has her way of hiding things. As Elin and Rob grew closer, the genuine care and concern they had for one another deepened. Their chemistry and attraction are red hot, yet there is also a trust and understanding between them. What will happen when Rob learns of Elin's secret? Will he betray her trust? What does Rob's brother Donald, the leader of the Mackenzie Clan, have planned?
While reading RAGE, the energy builds and you just know that something epic is bearing down on Elin and Rob. A battle is coming, and Elin will need to decide if she can reveal her deepest secret and use her powers to keep the Mackenzie Clan safe. All I can say is WOW!!! Donna's description of the battle was so realistic and vivid, I could clearly picture everything she portrayed, such is her skill with her words. I loved seeing a couple of characters from the previous series, and all the new ones that were introduced.
RUIN Book #1
A thrilling, mesmerizing, action-filled journey from the first word to the last. It is the story of Asa and Rory.
Asa is special, a descendant of the first witches, and she is being sought after by Hosvir, a Viking Chieftain, who wants her as his wife. As a result, she is in danger. Her sister Lissa, who is in Norway, sends Rory Sutherland, a Scottish warrior, with a message of impending danger. When a wounded Rory finally delivers his message of "run" to Asa, she decides to remain and heal him, as she's tired of running. They join forces to fight the enemy, along with some other favourite previous characters. Who will win the battle? Who will survive?
I oved both Asa and Rory. Asa was incredible, with powers beyond belief, yet she often doubted herself. Rory is a fighter, a man who stands up for his beliefs. When Asa and Rory meet their attraction and chemistry are instant, they are drawn to each other, they are meant to be together. Will they get their HEA?
REIGN Book #3
A captivating, suspenseful, romantic, and action-packed adventure. The story of Malene and Armir
In the aftermath of battle Malene Lady of the Varroki people, has washed up on the shores of Norway believing she is Dagny, a witch. She's then captured by the Vikings where she finds herself a favourite among them, due to her magical powers. Armir, a Warlock of the Varroki people and Malene's right hand man searched high and low for her until he found her. He loves her and he needs her to regain her memories.
Seclusion in a cave is Armir's only hope to help Malene. He takes on the roles of protector and healer, hoping to keep her safe and give himself time to bring her back to the woman she once was, the one he loved. I loved Armir's perseverance in his task. It was not an easy one to undertake as Malene/Dagny did not want to forfeit her newfound powers. This was going to be a battle of the wills.
KINDRED: THE FATED are stories of deep love, a battle for power and control, a need for acceptance, and a determination to help a loved one. They are steamy, entertaining, and magical that bewitched me from beginning to end.
