{Blog Tour: Review + Giveaway} The Masks of Under Series - By Kathryn Ann Kingsley

 
============================
 
 
KING OF FLAMES - By Kathryn Ann Kingsley
(The Mask Under #1)
Release Date: March 5, 2019
Publisher: Limitless Publishing, LLC
 
Everything about my life has been pretty normal working as a forensic autopsy technician. Until the day I woke up with a mysterious symbol tattooed on my arm.
 
Suddenly normal no longer existed. The barrier between Earth and a world called Under, dissolved...
 
Now I’m trapped with dozens of other people. Held prisoner by the creators of myths and legends, where the realm is ruled by two masked kings who want to turn us into creatures like them.

But even though I didn’t choose to be here, this new world manages to pull me deeper, affecting me differently than other humans. Unfortunately King Edu, also known as the King of Flames, notices this and I’m now considered a threat.

If I want to survive King Edu and the dangers of Under, I need to escape. The only problem is, there’s another masked king who seems to have an interest in me. Aon, the King of Shadows, wants me here in this world, and he wants me alive.
I just need to figure out why.

KING OF SHADOWS - By Kathryn Ann Kingsley
(The Masks of Under #2)
Pub. Date: March 26, 2019
Publisher: Limitless Publishing
 
 
Some call him a madman. Others call him a warlock. Both are true.
 
But if it wasn’t for Aon, I’d be dead. I was mere seconds away from dying by Edu’s hands when the King of Shadows appeared in a flash of lightning, saving me from Edu’s murderous plans.
 
Now I’m under his protection, living in his home. The more time I’m forced to spend with him, the more I start to piece together the puzzle of why Aon and Edu are at war.
 
Despite how everyone else seems to hate Aon, there’s something that pulls me towards him—like gravity, refusing to let go. My heart is telling me to believe what he says is true, yet there’s this prickle of warning in the back of my skull cautioning me against falling for the King of Shadows.
 
In the world of Under trusting the wrong person can get you killed. Only the strong survive out here, and that’s what I intend to do.
Survive.

Review
 
 Was it just me or does this series throw off some serious BDB vibes, with a little bit of Anita Blake? I know some of you must the screaming at me right now, 'There are no vampires, how can that be?!'....sometimes it's about characters, chemistry and badass-ness!

The chemistry that there was between Lydia and Aon was underling in Kind of Flames, it was like the a slow burning fire that I was just waiting for someone to throw some gas onto! Well, guess what, someone did that in book #2! BOOM!

One thing that I enjoyed was how much Lydia evolved, from the beginning of the 1st book to the end of the second, she didn't just learn to survive, she found a purpose. Lydia did struggle with a few different issues through these books, and I was worried for a minute she might now grow, but with her new sense of purpose and now knowing who she can trust pushed her along, things are going to get so good in her future!

The series is going to be a total of 6 books, and that poses a problem, since there are only 2 currently out....why do I have to wait soooooo long for the things I want?! Ugh, life!

{Blog Tour: Review + Giveaway} S.S.S. Year One - By Yumoyori Wilson

 


==================================
 
S.S.S. Year One - By Yumoyori Wilson
(Supernatural Spy Academy Book 1)
Release Date: April 5, 2019
Genre: Supernatural, YA, Paranormal
 


When being different leads to the best years of your life. 
There are three key components required to get into the most prestigious, top spy academy in the world:
 
Skills. 
Strength. 
Survival. 
My name is Silver Spell Solange. No, I didn't plan for my initials to be the same rank needed to enter the spy academy. But I would do anything to get into the one of a kind school. I have the magical capability of an Elemental Witch, the strength to kick anyone's ass, and quick problem-solving skills to get my teammates out of any jam. There’s only one small problem – the other 'S' I’m missing.
 
I'm not a part of the supernatural race. 
 
After realizing the my only shot at my dreams is at the brink of extinction, I'm unexpectedly teamed up with a werewolf, a dragon, a fallen angel, and a hellhound. The four of them carry the assets and abilities I need to gain my spot into the Supernatural Spy Academy (SSS).
 
With the clock ticking and not much leg room for an SS score, I accept their bet, knowing I’ll easily handle whatever they request from me.
I didn't think their bet would lead me to date all four them. 
 
It's time for me to buckle up. This four-year roller coaster is about to begin, and its a bumpy one-way ticket to becoming the next "supernatural" spy.

Review
 
Everything about this book exceed my expectations!

I was expecting something amazing and out of the ordinary because I was truly judging this book by it's fantastic cover...and it DID not disappoint! Not ever reading anything by this author before, from my understanding some of her previous work was a little more light hearted, so it makes me eager to read more from her just based on her writing ability alone!

From the very beginning there was a mystery that outlined this storyline, I knew that something was coming, there was an ominous, foreshadowing that really appealed to me and left me wanting more with every page turn. With magic, shifters, and creatures of the unknown creeping on every page of this book, the author was able to weave so many aspects of this specific world into not only the characters, but their totally badass pets too!

I cannot wait to continue this series and see how the world and everyone in it develops in the future. Though the book did leave off with a cliffhanger, it wasn't as brutal as I expected it to be!

If you're looking for a read that will grab ahold of you and take you away then this is ABOSLUTELY the read for you!
