Fiddling with Facebook

 

 

Yeah, so I’ve been fiddling with my Facebook page and added new timeline artwork. Thanks to my wonderful assistant, Sierra Nicole Adams. She’s an amazing artist and has been making my boring posts really pop.

Great reviews still coming in for FORBIDDEN

 

Carra, you’re making my day!!!!

 

Carra’s review May 12, 14
5 of 5 stars

“You know when you read a book and it’s just so good that you immediately look for anything else by that author to immediately add to your to-be-read list? That was me after reading Forbidden. I was pleasantly surprised to find out this is the first book in Lori Adams’ debut trilogy. With such good writing and characters, I would have expected this story to be from an established author-so again, very pleasantly surprised and glad I requested it from NetGalley.

FORBIDDEN - The Soulkeepers

 

The characters are well written with excellent depth so that they feel like they could be real people around you. Sophia is a strong young female lead, Michael is the perfect hot good guy, and Dante is a great, sexy, really bad boy that you do feel sad for even though he really is the bad boy. Sophia’s friends and classmates are your usual classic high school roundup of characters (I looked forward to hearing what Duffy’s next outfit would be, and he and Bailey playing off each other were pretty funny).

 

The world the author has created is fantastic. I thought it was quite original and enjoyed the cast of paranormal characters that were introduced with the Guardian Angels, Demon Knights, Grigori and the others. I have read a few other angel stories before, but none drew me in like this one did.

 

While this book is labeled as New Adult, it really reads as more mature Young Adult so I wonder if the New Adult label is an indication of where the series will be heading. If that is the case, it will be great to see the characters grow into that category, especially since you can feel the strength and intensity of the attraction between them. This first installment though can be safely read by those mature young adults 14 and up, though no matter what age you are I think you’ll love this book.

 

Me? I’m impatiently awaiting the next in the series as I can’t wait to see where it goes…a solid 5 star read!

   RELEASE DAY! Forbidden: The Soulkeepers by Lori Adams  

 

 COVER-Forbidden-The-Soulkeepers-Lori-Adams

 

I can’t believe this day has finally arrived! It’s a walking on air kind of day never to be repeated. There is only one debut novel for a writer, and I’m so happy that mine is Forbidden, a story very close to my heart.

 

Several years ago when I first began writing Forbidden, I had no idea that the paranormal genre was so popular. Big surprise on me! But what got me even more was the never-ending interest in the particular theme of Angels. (So it’s not just me :D)

 

 

There are few things that have captured and sustained my imagination more than Angels.

 

When we’re little, Angels are often seen as that soft idea hovering around our peripheral beliefs. Those chubby cherubs with doughy skin and serene expressions that must mean Angels are peaceful and made of downy pillows. That’s all well and good when we’re young, but it’s later when we discover how passionate and volatile and yes, even how violent they can be, that our interest really peaks. I mean, how cool is it to have an Angel of God ready to draw a sword to defend us?

 

Stories of Angels predate the Hebrew book of Genesis, the Christian bible, and have been found in early Sumerian texts. All across the globe, in religions, mythologies, and lore, different cultures speak of hauntingly similar beings, these divine helpers who have many names: guardian spirits, spirit guides, divine helpers, benevolent spirits, spirit messengers, etc. No matter the culture, whether they are avatars in Hinduism or devas in Buddhism, these beings are believed to come from the unseen world around us. Some are protectors who make us feel safe, guides who lead the way when we’re lost, or messengers who deliver the word of God.

 

But Angels are also known for their passion. Not only do they fire the imagination and inspire great works of art, they can be terrifying beings that evoke fear. They make war amongst themselves. They cast out their enemies—fallen angels—and send them to the fires of hell. They break the rules and make love to humans. They turn dark and vengeful. But most of all, they are driven to extreme measures by whatever passion they follow. Whether dark or light, blessed or fallen, their enemies are the most powerful enemies of all—each other.

 

It’s this passion, this ideology of Angels having free will, that I put to the test in The Soulkeepers Series. Michael Patronus, a guardian angel named after his namesake the archangel Michael, is torn between his love for a human girl and his guardian vows.

 

Before Sophia St. James arrived in Haven Hurst, Michael had a clear path. He would answer his call of duty to save souls while working to join heaven’s elite team of warriors, the Halos of the Son. But Michael soon realizes that Sophia has stirred forbidden emotions in him. He is tormented by his cravings, his need to make love to her. He recognizes that she is unique, that they share a bond that is both terrifying and arousing.

 

First and foremost, Michael is an Angel with extreme passions, extreme desires. So what extreme measures will he use to get what he wants?

 

Find out in the first installment of The Soulkeepers.

He snapped to attention, his back going ramrod straight, and now his head is turning slowly, methodically, his eyes are aquamarine prisms that stare with such invasiveness I almost feel violated”

 

That part reeeeeeally freaked me out, I literally shivered and jumped out of my computer seat because it was that surreal and scary and your words were like so intense! : O

  Feb 11, 14
4 to 4.5 STARS
This is one of the best angel books I have read.
   While the beginning is a little slow, the second half is phenomenal! I could not read fast enough! Sophia is new to CT and quickly finds herself drawn to Michael. However, Michael must ignore his attraction to protect her and his family’s secret. Add soul stealing demons to the mix and it’s an amazing story. Sophia, despite her age, is a strong female lead character. She is dealing with sorrow and her unnerving attraction to Michael. Michael is amazing. He is fighting the timeless battle of love vs duty.
  I will be stalking the author for any information on the next installment.

I would highly recommend this book to any fan of paranormal/fantasy!

 

 

** I receieved an ARC via Netgalley for an honest review**
