Destructive Series by LU Ann Blog Tour

Image
 Hey, I have Blog Tour on The Destructive Series by LU Ann   *Note- I Received ARC's for honest Reviews.  I am just going to do a general Review so I don't bore ya'll to death with my random scattered thoughts.  These two books made me cry a lot. It was so heart breaking and so emotional that there were times I couldn't go on because The tears were coming so hard.  Lacey is so strong and I can't imagine all the things she had to go through.  Lacey has been hurt by someone she trusted before and at nineteen she doesn't want to get close to anybody. She doesn't want to get hurt. Then she meets Caine.  The Destructive Series is about Lacey's journey as she tries to forget her past and work towards a better future.  Life isn't always so easy and The emotions are overwhelming. You get a good feel of what the character is going through. The author really did an amazing job on showing the reader Lacey's journey.  Lacey is so strong a...

Book Talk Review; Beautiful Redemption

Image
 The last book in The Caster Chronicles is Beautiful Redemption.  While I didn't cry nearly as hard as when I read Beautiful Chaos this one did have some feel good happy moments that made me tear up a little.    Is death the end . . . or only the beginning?  Ethan Wate has spent most of his life longing to escape the stiflingly small Southern town of Gatlin. He never thought he would meet the girl of his dreams, Lena Duchannes, who unveiled a secretive, powerful, and cursed side of Gatlin, hidden in plain sight. And he never could have expected that he would be forced to leave behind everyone and everything he cares about. So when Ethan awakes after the chilling events of the Eighteenth Moon, he has only one goal: to find a way to return to Lena and the ones he loves.  Back in Gatlin, Lena is making her own bargains for Ethan's return, vowing to do whatever it takes -- even if that means trusting old enemies or risking the lives of t...

Book Talk Review; Beautiful Chaos

Image
The Third Installment in The Caster Chronicles is the most emotionally charged book in the series thus far.  Beautiful Chaos...    Ethan Wate thought he was getting used to the strange, impossible events happening in Gatlin, his small Southern town. But now that Ethan and Lena have returned home from the Great Barrier, strange and impossible have taken on new meanings. Swarms of locusts, record-breaking heat, and devastating storms ravage Gatlin as Ethan and Lena struggle to understand the impact of Lena's Claiming. Even Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals is affected -- and their abilities begin to dangerously misfire. As time passes, one question becomes clear: What -- or who -- will need to be sacrificed to save Gatlin?  For Ethan, the chaos is a frightening but welcome distraction. He's being haunted in his dreams again, but this time it's not Lena -- and the mysterious figure is following him out of his dreams and into his everyday...

Book Talk Review; Beautiful Darkness

Image
Beautiful Darkness is the Second book in the Caster Chronicles.      Ethan Wate used to think of Gatlin, the small Southern town he had always called home, as a place where nothing ever changed.

A Gatlin that harbored ancient secrets beneath its moss-covered oaks and cracked sidewalks. A Gatlin where a curse has marked Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals for generations. A Gatlin where impossible, magical, life-altering events happen.  Sometimes life-ending.  Together they can face anything Gatlin throws at them, but after suffering a tragic loss, Lena starts to pull away, keeping secrets that test their relationship. And now that Ethan's eyes have been opened to the darker side of Gatlin, there's no going back.
