What happens when the worlds of Rachel Morgan from Kim Harrison’s Hollows series and Peri Reed from The Drafter collides?  You get the chance to find out in Waylaid a novella by the author who wrote both.  Rachel Morgan is one of my absolute favorite fantasy characters and when that series ended, well, I was really unhappy.  When I heard that she would be back in a novella, I jumped at the chance to read it ahead of its release on April 4th.

This Chick Read: Moonglow by Kristen Callihan

On By deborahkehoeIn A Hot Chick Who Reads1 Comment

Forgive me but I’m going to gush for a moment.  Kristen Callihan’s Darkest London series is a fantastically dark, dangerously fun, sexy thrill ride.  I enjoyed Moonglow, the second book in the series, just as much as Firelight, the first.  The characters are not perfect.  They are flawed in the best way possible.  They are interesting, and hold my attention to the extent that I am reading  each page like I eat a piece of chocolate cake, savoring each bite and disappointed when my plate is clean.
