Wolf Girl Series;

The Wolf Girl series is one of the first series that I have read by Leia Stone, and it is one of my favorites of hers. Wolf girl is a four books wolf shifter series. This series had sparked my love of the Paranormal Fantasy novels, and I read more and more of her books. In that time, she became my favorite author, where I have read the majority of her books. I love the characters and the worldbuilding in her books. Her characters are relatable and the worldbuilding is amazing! It is so easy to picture the setting of the story. I also love how the story always provides the comedic relief when needed and makes me laugh. I always say that if a book can make me laugh (internally) it's a good book, but if it can make me laugh visibly/verbally, it is a great book! I always have a great time reading books by Leia Stone!

Series Order;

  1. Wolf Girl (#1)

  2. Lost Girl (#2)

  3. Alpha girl (#3)

  4. Mated Girl (#4)


Fates Mark Series;

The Fates Mark series is a three-book series by Demi Warrik. This series is the first books from this author. I loved the creativity from this series and laughed so hard. It is a reverse harem paranormal fantasy series, where there are light and shadow weavers as well as wolf shifters. and it is captivating. While she is a new author, I absolutely loved her books. I have read nearly all her books, and I must say they are amazing! I love the main Character of the Fates Mark series. She is sassy and refuses to take crap from nobody. I love her witty comebacks and most of all. . . Hemsworth, the talking dog who always provides the best laughs for me.

Series order;

  1. Marked by Night

  2. Bound by light

  3. Called by Fate


Shadow Falls series;

The Shadow Falls series is an amazing series by C.C. Hunter. I love the feel of the story. I like the idea of a summer camp for supernatural beings. I loved the world-building, I liked the fact that I felt I wanted to teleport myself into the story. I would stay up past midnight reading the book because I couldn't put it down. While there may have been a few typos in the story it doesn't impact the feel of the story. I was still able to understand the story. I felt like I could easily relate to the characters in the story. Shadow Falls is a five book series, where supernatural teens go to a summer camp to learn about controling their abilities.

Series Orders;

  1. Born at Midnight

  2. Taken at Dusk

  3. Whispers at moonrise

  4. Awake at Dawn

  5. Chosen at Nightfall


The Lux series;

I absolutely love this series! It is the first Alein romance series that I have read. Generally, I typically avoid the alien trope, because I get a lot of alien talk in my household. But I am loving this series. This is a five-book series full of twists and turns. I love the characters and the world-building. This is one of the books that can make me laugh visibly, not just internally. I love that the story keeps me on the edge of my seat, wanting to know what happens next. It is one of those stories that you can stay up late reading because you can't put it down.

Series Order;

  1. Obsidian

  2. Onyx

  3. Opal

  4. Origin

  5. Opposition
