INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone My name is Victoria Zumbrum, 40 years old, married 14 years with 1 son. This is my very first blog. So bear with me. I have always wanted to have my own blog. I have always loved to read. I enjoy getting lost in a good book.
I love becoming part of the story and characters. I am hoping to bring my love of books to my readers.

I love reading different genres such as paranormal, young adult, romance, romantic suspense, mystery, Christian fiction, some horror, etc. The list goes on. I started reviewing books a couple of years ago and have done reviews for different blogs and even some authors. I really have enjoyed reviewing books and I will continue to do so. If anyone is interested in me reviewing a book for them, please contact me. I still have a lot to learn regarding my own blog so bear with me. I welcome and appreciate all followers.

Review of The Homecoming by Tammy Tate




Sydney is half human, half wolf, and has fallen in love with Kyle, a full-fledged shifter who for the last six months has been appearing in her dreams.

The next full moon, Sydney makes her first shift from human to wolf. The transformation won’t be easy. Thanks to her human genes, it could leave her disfigured. Or, worse. Dead.

Edward knows he can't rush Sydney to the hospital if something goes terribly wrong, so he sends his only daughter to live with his late wife’s wolf clan deep in Louisiana’s alligator infested bayou. Despite holding Edward responsible for her sister’s death, Susan agrees to help.

Sydney learns Kyle is in Bayou Fontaine. But, for the sake of the pack, the council has already chosen Emily, as his mate. The relentless she-wolf will stop at nothing to claim what is rightfully hers and teams up with Kyle’s twin brother, Justin, who’s hell bent on revenge.

The clock is ticking..

MY REVIEW:

I AM A BIG FAN OF PARANORMAL AND ENJOY HAVING ROMANCE AND ACTION INVOLVED IN THE STORIES.  SO I WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO READING THE HOMECOMING BY THE AWESOME TAMMY TATE.  SHE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FAVORITE AUTHORS AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED IN HER STORIES.  AS IS THE CASE WITH THE HOMECOMING.  THE HOMECOMING WAS A WONDERFUL READ FILLED WITH SO MUCH ACTION, ROMANCE AND PARANORMAL.  THERE WAS SOMETHING CONSTANTLY HAPPENING TO TEST SYDNEY AND KYLE.  THERE WERE SO MANY CHALLENGES.

I REALLY ENJOYED STEPPING INTO TAMMY TALE  OF THE WOLF WORLD. WE ARE INTRODUCED TO SYDNEY WHO IS HALF HUMAN, HALF WOLF WHO IS ABOUT READY TO GO THROUGH HER FIRST TRANSFORMATION.  HER FATHER KNOWS HE IS UNABLE TO HELP SYDNEY DURING THE CHANGE SO HE SENDS SYDNEY TO LIVE WITH HER MOTHER'S CLAN.  SYDNEY MEETS KYLE WHO SHE HAS BEEN DREAMING ABOUT AND THEY FALL IN LOVE.  WILL THE CLAN KEEP THEM FROM BEING TOGETHER?  WILL THEY BE ABLE TO OVERCOME ALL THE OBSTACLES TO FINALLY BE TOGETHER?

I REALLY ENJOYED THE HOMECOMING.  I LOVED SYDNEY AND KYLE AND FELT THE INSTANT CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THEM.  IT WAS NICE WATCHING THEM GETTING TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER AND FALLING IN LOVE AS SYDNEY WAS GOING THROUGH HER TRANSFORMATION.  I REALLY ENJOYED ALL THE CHARACTERS  THEY EACH PLAYED A ROLE IN THE STORY.  I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT BOOK IN THE SERIES.  I LOVE TAMMY'S WRITING.  IF YOU LOVE PARANORMAL ROMANCE WITH LOTS OF ACTION, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU THE HOMECOMING OR ANY OF TAMMY'S BOOKS.  SHE WILL NOT DISAPPOINT YOU.  5 STARS







Tammy Tate was born and raised in Hollywood, Florida but has lived most of her adult life in Texas. Her passion to write began in high school. It follows her everywhere she goes...creating a world where anything is possible. She's been married to the same wonderful man for over thirty years. Her secret to a long marriage? It's easy when you marry your best friend. In her world, Friday night is still date night.

Before she became a full-time author, she was an Executive Secretary, a Computer Consultant/Technician, and a Communications Officer (Police Dispatcher). She doesn't mind a challenge which has allowed her to race a late-model in a women's powder puff race, run barrels and poles in a play-day rodeo and drive an 18-wheeler. Somewhere in between, she and her husband raised three wonderful children. When she's not breathing life into her characters or jotting down ideas for a new book, she and her husband are exploring country roads on their Honda Gold Wing.

Since she believes reading is the next best thing to writing, she enjoys romance, fantasy, science fiction and thrillers. In December of 2013, she signed her first book contract with a traditional publisher. Her books have made Amazon's Best Seller list.

Above all, she loves to hear from you…

After being reunited with the only man she’s ever loved, Kylee Parker willingly returns to the hell from which she was rescued in hopes of saving others from the nightmare she endured. While attempting to find strength in this newfound power struggle, Kylee begins to question her sanity.

Having rescued her from her captors, he thought he would spend the rest of his life making up for lost time, but his world goes dark when she deliberately walks back into the hands of the underground mafia.

Can Kylee survive the evil surrounding her to avenge what she has lost, or is she destined to become what her mother always wanted? Will Alex risk it all to follow her into the depths of hell, or will he uphold the oath he swore to protect his country?

As Kylee and Alexander fight their way back to each other, love and honor will be put to the ultimate test in this shocking conclusion to The Betrayed Series.

Release Blitz Hunter by A.E. Fisher











Mallory

I spent years running from my past. Then, when my past comes knocking in the form of dark, delicious sin, I find myself caught up in a man I shouldn’t. My son's uncle. A dangerous biker. Not to mention, an overbearing Alpha male.

Hunter is everything I need to escape from, yet I find myself wanting to stay. I know I shouldn't let myself or my son care for him, but I can't help wondering if maybe he's the

one who can finally save me from my past.


Hunter

The plan was simple. Find my nephew, bring him home, and raise him in the Black Angels like my brother would have wanted. But things never go as planned, like my nephew’s mother. My brother’s one-night stand.

Mallory is spicy and sweet; one second she is mouthing off to me, and the next, she is moaning my name. The longer I’m with her, the harder she is to ignore. But she is hiding something while desperate to escape me, though I have her in my grasp. I will find out what she is hiding, and when I do, she will have nowhere left to run.




Writing books had been a big part of my life for many years; whether it was writing in secret notebooks during class, writing amateur novels or posting stories online, I surrounded myself with it.

Of course, it has its up and downs, but I've never once thought that writing wasn't for me.

Because of that, I can share the worlds I discover in my head with the outside world, and although that might sound crazy to some, it's fine by me. So long as I can do what I love, I'm happy.

And every person who's happy as a result of my writing is a bonus for which, I'm forever grateful for.





Luca Made Men by Sarah Brianne Release Blitz











Lucca was made the underboss, being what nightmares are made of.

Chloe was scarred by her past, learning too young that nightmares are real.

He has waited long enough to claim her soul, but he must take it from the devil first.

Her soul might have been better off claimed by the devil.

The only way to save her from her past is to delve into his.

The world as she knows it will come crashing down.

I’m the fucking boogieman.

I’m just a fucking freak.

Hey! My name is Sarah Brianne and after living for twenty-two years the characters in my head told me enough was enough and I have finally put pen to paper (or is it finger to keyboard?) to tell their stories. Since I was a little girl I have watched every chick flick I could get my hands on, then when I became older I discovered a whole new world of romance novels. To me there is nothing better then a tale of true love and those are the stories that have inspired me to write. Like everything else in my life I have put my own spin on two lovers destined to be together.
