Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris

Title: Dead Until Dark
Author: Charlaine harris
Genera: Paranormal Romance
Date Published: May 1, 2001
Number of Pages: 292


Description: Sookie Stackhouse is just a small-time cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana. Until the vampire of her dreams walks into her life-and one of her coworkers checks out.... Maybe having a vampire for a boyfriend isn't such a bright idea. A fun, fast, funny, and wonderfully intriguing blend of vampire and mystery that's hard to put down, and should not be missed. (Susan Sizemore)


My 2 Cent: I've honestly probably read this book 20 times and I still love it. Sookie is just your regular poor southern girl but shes got a quirk, she telepathic. Awesome you may think, wrong. It sucks you can't have a relationship because you always know what the other person is thinking good or bad. Plus everyone thinks shes crazy because they know the truth about her ability. The only person who seems to get is vampire Bill her new boyfriend, the greatest thing about him is she can't hear a single one of his thoughts. Trouble comes with dating a vampire though someone doesn't like it and is out to kill her and any other girl associated with vamps. Pick up this must read to see how she survives.

Not My Daughter by Barbara Delinsky


Title: Not My Daughter
Author: Barbara Delinsky
Genra: Literature
Number of Pages: 450

From Publishers Weekly: Delinsky proves once again why she's a perennial bestseller with this thought-provoking tale of three smart, popular teenage girls who make a pact to become pregnant and raise their babies together. Lily, Mary Kate, and Jess also happen to be the daughters of best friends Susan, Kate, and Sunny, and the mothers are thrown into a tailspin by this unexpected news. Susan, the principal of the town's high school, has the most to lose, when the schools superintendent and editor of the local newspaper question her abilities as a leader and mother, and other parents prove quick to blame her—a single mother herself who got pregnant as a teenager—as a poor role model. But all three women must come to grips with where they failed as mothers, how the dreams they had for their daughters are disappearing, and scathing smalltown judgment. Timely, fresh, and true-to-life, this novel explores multiple layers of motherhood and tackles tough questions.

My 2 cent: Once again Delinsky has wrote a book that makes me appreciate my mother and hope I never have to face anything the characters go through. You never know what the characters of this book are going to face as the days go on but friendships and strong family bonds see them through all the hardships that a pregnancy pact has dealt them with. This book is a new favorite of mine, it seems like every Delinsky book becomes one.

Demon Hunter and Baby by Anna Elliott

Title: Demon Hunter and Baby
Author: Anna Elliott
Genera: Paranormal Romance
Date Published: January 12, 2012
Number of Pages: 225

Description: Her boss is a fairy, her ex-lover is a Knight Templar, and she spends her days fighting the demons that plague London's streets. But what's *really* complicating Aisling McKay's life is being a single mother to a nine-month-old baby girl.

Ever since the End Times, magic has been leaking into our world. Magic and demons, shadowy beings that possess humans' bodies and destroy their souls. The Monastic Order of the Knights Templar have revealed themselves to the world as guardians and defenders of the veil between the demon world and ours. But the Templar Order is growing weaker, and the veil is starting to shred and tear. Often all that stands between humans and complete demonic possession are professional demon fighters, Hunters like Aisling McKay.

Aisling already has enough to handle between her day job, her (very unplanned) baby daughter, Willow--and avoiding Kieran, Willow's father and a Templar Knight. But now a new danger is abroad in London--and facing it will set Aisling on a collision course with the past she thought she'd escaped for good.

My 2 cent: This is a new author for me and I've only ever read to other paranormals with mommies (broken hearts series & Bled Dry) so it's a fairly fresh scenario for me. I absolutely loved this story it's going in my favorites list. I actually only read this because it was free with my amazon prime membership but I'm so glad I did. As Ash would talk about her little girl Willow biting this or drooling on this I would think of my own little one. While I don't have too worry about demons trying to kill my little one I could relate to her constant worry. This read is packed with action and loads of comedy as Ash is one snarky chick I'm giving this book 5stars mostly for my hottie Rafe ;)
