About To Save a Mate

Welcome back to Redwood University, where a power-hungry shifter wants to rule them all; and those strong enough to stand up to him must fight.

I tried to flee Redwood University, but when my father was kidnapped by a ruthless alpha, I was forced to submit. With a broken heart and wounded pride, I reluctantly followed his demands–if only to keep my father alive.

There's danger lurking around every corner, and since Alexei crushed my heart in his fist, I sought an alliance with the vampires, fae, and witches instead.

Alexei is furious, jealous, and possessive. But despite everything, I still ache for him.

But the future alpha made his choice. No matter what he says, I can't wait for a mate that won't stand by my side. I just wish my heart would get with the program.

Because there's an unknown power simmering in my veins, and a mystery I'm on the verge of cracking. I don't know what the future holds, but I do know that Alpha Jones will do anything to gain more control, and that's one thing I can never allow to happen.

So, if Alexei won't save me from his father, then I'lll save myself.

*To Save a Mate is the second book in the Redwood University Trilogy. It cannot be read as a standalone and ends in a cliffhanger. If possessive heroes, who occasionally turn into wolves, and sassy, headstrong heroines are your jam, you've come to the right place. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the continuation of this exciting paranormal story.

Momma Says: 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm gonna need book three now, please! Seriously, these cliffhangers are blowing my mind - and my family may have learned a few words they didn't realize Momma even knew. The closer I got to the end, the tighter I gripped my Kindle. I mean, I already knew it was coming, Poppy Ireland had already promised a cliffy, but really? There? It had to stop there? Yeah, it's a doozy.

So, rather than give spoilers (because everyone should get to experience that cliffy without spoilers), let me just talk about the brilliant world the duo known as Poppy Ireland has created. This is a fabulous academy romance with so many colorful characters. I love Alexei and Nicole, even if Alexei is sometimes an exercise in frustration, but they aren't the only totally lovable characters in this world. So many that I'm really hoping some of them get their own trilogies because I'm gonna need to visit again. The book is wonderfully creative and impossible to put down. In just two books, Poppy Ireland has become a must-read author for me. Alexei and Nicole's journey is one of magic, secrets, and more secrets. We do get a few answers here, so it's not all cliffy, but the answers just bring more questions.

So, there you have it. I'm sure this review is about as clear as mud, but I couldn't be transparent and avoid giving away too much. Just grab it up and dive in. You don't want to miss this one.

About To Reject a Mate

Welcome to Redwood University, where the creatures that go bump in the night really do exist… and they’re hiding in plain sight.

Attending a small college in the middle of nowhere was never my plan, but when I was offered free tuition and the promise of an excellent education, that plan changed.

It would’ve been nice to know I would be one of the only humans on campus.

It’d be even better if a certain bossy shifter didn’t claim me as his fated mate.

Alexei is arrogant, acrimonious, and the worst A-word of them all: an alpha.

But I can’t deny the way my body responds to him. No matter how many warning flags are waving around in my head, we gravitate toward one another. It’s primal. Passionate.

Painful.

Because regardless of what the fates think, or the supposed destiny we share… Alexei and I could never be.

So, if Alexei won’t reject our bond… I’ll have to do it for him.

*To Reject a Mate is the first book in the Redwood University Trilogy. It cannot be read as a standalone and ends in a cliffhanger. If possessive heroes, who occasionally turn into wolves, and sassy, headstrong heroines are your jam, you’ve come to the right place. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride into this exciting new paranormal world.

Momma Says: 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Well, talk about knocking it out of the park their first time at bat! Okay, their first time at bat together? Seriously, I don't know who this dynamic duo is, but if this debut is any indication of what's to come, I'm adding another name to my list of must-read authors.

I knew before reading the first word that To Reject a Mate would have a cliffy, and boy, does it ever. No easing into it for this pair. Even knowing it was coming and watching the corner of my Kindle screen as it counted down the percent left, I still wasn't prepared, and I really, really need more of this world and its fantastical characters. Alexei and Nicole keep things interesting on their own, but they aren't the only characters to get under my skin. I realize this trilogy is their fated mates story, but there are so many terrific characters here, and I hope for so many of them to get their own stories. With so many supernaturals in one place, the possibilities are endless. Plus, there's the whole University setting with its cliques. I mean, these authors have thought of everything. We get the big man on campus and his circle of followers. Of course, there's no shortage of women hanging on his every word. We get the mean girl who will stop at nothing to get what she wants. And then, we get the new girl, who is catching everyone's eye. So, it's like a new adult campus romance combined with a paranormal fated mates romance, and it's totally delicious.

I can't wait to see what happens as things progress. There are enough secrets to keep us all guessing, and I'm very impatiently waiting for the reveals of those secrets because I have questions! Lots of questions. I realize that I've been vague, but I don't want to give away any of this book's secrets. This is one that needs to be enjoyed spoiler free, and I highly recommend you grab it and jump in. You won't regret it.

About Imposing Saint

Aaron Laughlin is young, rich, and a star among the Nashville political elite. That’s why nobody is more surprised than him when he ends up abandoned at the altar. But here he is, dumped on the most important day of his life, embarrassed in front of his entire city, and left with a bruised ego in place of a broken heart.

Needing time away to regroup after the fiasco that could very well derail his career, he decides to head to the mountains and enjoy his honeymoon on his own. Only, he isn’t alone. His imposing new bodyguard refuses to let Aaron out of his sight, or his reach, and the way his dark eyes follow Aaron’s every move gets under his skin in a way he can’t shake, and isn’t sure he wants to.

Isaac Chinn is practical, professional and takes pride in being good at his job. He’s never even considered breaching the client/bodyguard boundary, which is why being stuck on the side of a mountain with the gorgeous jilted groom that isn’t quite as straight as he’d like people to think, is such an imposition. The mayor might annoy and intrigue him in equal measure but Isaac knows better than to cross the line.

Only, the heat that flares between them refuses to be ignored. They’re like gasoline and a match, destined to consume each other if they get too close. But when faced with the cold of loneliness, is it worth the risk to feel the heat of passion, even if it might destroy them both?

PRE-ORDER EXTRA CREDIT TODAY!

About Extra Credit

Caught between the taboo of wanting her professor, and the trepidation from someone not easily taking no for an answer–this was going to be a long semester...

Philosophy professor Connor Peterson liked things just so. He liked his pens in the correct drawer, his students to use double spaced lines in their submitted papers, and occasionally he liked the consent of a reddened bottom across his knee.

Maisie Barnes wants to get through her senior year as an anthropology major at Hillview University as drama-free as possible. After spending the last two years trying to avoid the attention of Jameson Hughes, she can't wait to finish her undergrad and transfer to Berkeley for her Master's.

The week before school starts, and on an impromptu trip into the city to go shopping and have some fun, Maisie meets a man she instantly knows will have a lasting effect on her for the rest of her life... Connor meets a young woman in a darkened club that wields a vulnerability he craves, and he doesn't know if he'll ever get enough.

Can Maisie juggle her attraction to her professor, the stress of class, and fending off a wannabe beau? Can Connor sort through his need to possess the young woman with the trusting eyes?

Find out in Extra Credit—an insta-love, short read that has a full epilogue and a guaranteed HEA.

About Rockin' the Boat

Sometimes the smartest people have trouble seeing the life-changing romance right in front of them...

Teagan Gardiner didn't have time for relationships. She managed to escape high school without dating, thankyouverymuch, and looks forward to starting Hillview in the fall so she can surround herself with people who love learning as much as she does.

Malachi Owens coasted through school at King's Landing High and looked forward to a carefree summer before starting the engineering program at Hillview in the fall. A surfer boy at heart, while school comes easy for him he'd rather apply himself to nailing down some time in the water this summer.

When volunteering at Camp Pinehurst threatens to kill his happy-go-lucky vibe by tossing a potential new sibling and the complication of winning over the person he was pretty sure was the love of his life—though she didn't know it yet—into the mix, Malachi feels like he's caught in the undertow.

Rockin' the Boat is a New Adult romance full of laughter, the thrill of first love, tears, and hot encounters. It’s an insta-love quick read, with a full epilogue and HEA.
