Creo que quedo bastante claro que desde el primer libro quede completamente atrapada en el mundo oscuro de Amelia Grey, pero jamás pensé que con este segundo libro me iba a emocionar aún más.En el primer libro la autora nos regala misterio, unos personajes atrapantes y una ambientación maravillos...

A very good friend of mine told me that I should read the Graveyard Queen series by Amanda Stevens and I thought that it would be better to start by reading this novella. Well, definitely it was a very interesting and atmospheric read and I enjoyed it very much! It’s easy to see that the author i...
This was knda boring. Very cliche! As though the author took her characters (and dialogue) from television. The annoying female cliche cop ACTUALLY SAYS (twice, while interrogating 2 different people): "But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you?"WOW! Dragnet! Officer Friday delivered...
The Whispering Room be Amanda Stevens was a surprise. I didn't think i would like it, but i enjoyed it emensely. It starts out as a slow horror story but it doesn't rely on horror alone. It brings in a crime element and phychotic people. Evangeline, a new mom to DJ, is a police detective in New O...

I gave this a B- at AAR, so 3.5 stars. For my old school challenge, I decided to dip into my stash of older category romances. I was feeling nostalgic for the now-defunct Silhouette Shadows line, so I picked up a 1994 novel by Amanda Stevens (author of the Graveyard Queen series) called The Pe...

I couldn’t help but think those cicadas had been summoned. I wondered if Mott had been there all along lurking in the shadows, perhaps crawling through the walls as she observed my every move. A wizened guardian whose intent I had yet to determine. But I wouldn’t contempla...
I’d scrubbed all the blood away earlier, but I could still feel those beetles crawling over me. I stayed under the hot water for only a few minutes, though, because I was afraid of missing Devlin’s call. Dressing warmly in jeans, boots and a thick sweater, I took Angus out for a quick walk around...
But her mind kept returning to the strange events of the evening. Finally she gave in to that incessant tug and scoured the internet for information about the Tisdales—a prominent Charleston family whose roots could be traced to the city’s founding—the Order of the Coffin and the Claw, a secret s...
Instead, I drove to the tiny community near Hammond where Essie Goodwine lived. I hoped she wouldn’t mind my dropping by unannounced, but I was more concerned about my reception from her great-granddaughter. The last time our paths had crossed, Rhapsody Goodwine seemed to ...
Rather than slackening, the rain worsened, and with the coming darkness, made travel all the more perilous. The sheriff warned them there had been reports of other rock and mud slides along the mountain road, and they would be wise to find themselves rooms in town and hole up for the night. By mo...
When they saw Grace, one of them raised a hand and waved her over.“That’s Raymond Cruz,” she said, referring to the taller of the two men in jeans. “He’s one of our detectives. The guy standing next to him is the county coroner, Ellis Lovejoy.”“Great name for a coroner,” Cage said.“Isn’t it?”As t...
“What are you talking about? You know who I am.” “It’s like seeing—” “What?” Something inside me started to quake, and I tried to glance away, but the intensity of his gaze held me. He searched my face. “The way you were star...
Too late to turn back. I could feel a chill at my back and imagined a ghost behind me, creeping through the shadows, coveting my energy, leeching my warmth.I whirled, my heart in my throat. “Did you hear something?”“No.” Devlin turned and swung the light down the tunnel.I caught the gleam of bead...
