Greetings,
I am so excited to be back blogging and sharing amazing authors with all of you. Hopfully over the next few weeks you find some great reads and connect with some amazing authors.
First up this week is the talented Rissa Blakeley. Her latest release is The Kings Fate. Which is currently free on Kindle Unlimited.
In a world where Fae and Vampire will forever be at odds, a Vampire wins
the crown, ruling the Fae Realm for the first time in history. An
Incubus, Leolin Kyffin, and his barren Succubus, Louise Bach, plot to
end King Zachariah Orsova’s life, allowing them to rule the Fae Realm.
Through Louise’s encouragement, Leolin walks into a female Vampire’s
dream and mates with her, breaking Zachariah’s law. His hope is to
create what he thinks will be the most powerful half-breed known to the
Realm. When Zachariah kills the Succubus, Leolin vows revenge,
sacrificing his half-breed son, Monty Saxon, and using him as a pawn to
tear out the King’s heart, hoping
to make him feel the pain of death
while living. When Leolin walks into Zachariah’s dreams, he fills his
mind with unimaginable thoughts and desires. Doing the same to Monty, he
secures his devious plot, patiently waiting for the precise moment
Zachariah and Monty will be brought together as one. The choices Leolin
makes all add up to delivering a fate worse than death to his
half-breed son and the King of the Fae Realm. Will Leolin avenge the
murder of Louise? Will Zachariah and Monty survive, or will they be left
suffering in the end?

#TheKingHasArrived
The following is the first set of books I read by Rissa I am on pins and needles waiting on book 5 to come out what a series I have cried, yelled and even thrown items while reading this series. I recommend the following to help you through the series wine, tissues, chocolate, shatterproof kindle case and more wine.
SHATTERED LIVES SERIES
Book 1 Broken Dreams
Warning: For mature (18+) audiences only due to strong language, sexual
situations and violence.*
Elaina Cooper’s world was turned upside down on what was supposed to be
the happiest day of her life. She was about to marry Henry Daniels, the
man of her dreams -- or so she thought. Just as she was to walk down the
aisle, screams pierced the air.
In the days that followed, questions lingered in Elaina’s mind. Why
did Henry seem to know so much about what was happening? And why did she
feel like he was keeping secrets from her? Henry knew that his haunted
past would eventually catch up to him…in more ways than one. Through all
of this, he must face his demons, and Elaina must decide whether she
can accept who he is. Henry is determined to fight to the very end to
make their sexy, mercurial relationship work no matter what staggers in
their path.
Along with their ragtag band of survivors, they must travel south to
face Henry’s fears. There will be joys and loss but, in the end, is
love enough to hold them together?
Book 2 Awakened Desires
Gunther Erikkson had a mission to complete – one that he was more than
willing to see through. After he arrived in New York to intimidate Henry
Daniels into doing his job, things began to change for Gunther. One
woman had started to chip away at his icy heart. With the mission
complete, he headed back to his home in Atlanta, but he was left with an
unfamiliar ache in his chest.
The virus spread like wildfire and, within a week, it had reached
Gunther. Undeterred, he began his journey to his predetermined
destination. During his travels, he came across a woman who was moments
from meeting her end, but Gunther rushed in and saved Quinn Landers’
life. After a sincere promise of protection, she decided to continue her
travels with him.
The pain from the virus was creeping deep into his muscles and
bones. With the lack of a blood source and his own life hanging in the
balance, Gunther knew he needed to confess one of his biggest secrets to
Quinn. The tightened web of lies began to loosen, awakening Gunther’s
desires.
After dealing and learning to live with other survivors, bombings,
and secrets, they continued to travel north. When they arrived at the
destination, Henry was already waiting, thirsty for a battle.
Tragedy struck and it hit home for Gunther. Will he discover who he
truly is? Do Gunther and Henry battle it out, or do they learn to get
along and prepare for an epic showdown with a common foe?

Book 3 Fractured Hearts
The demons taunted. Feeling imprisoned by the voices in his head, Henry
feared he would never be free from their reign. With no regard, he
raised the bottle to his lips and relished in the blackness welcoming
him like an old friend.
After a child went missing and Henry was unable to aid in the
search, he knew it was time to clean up his act. With Gunther’s help and
determination, Elaina worked to get Henry back on track to a healthier,
more sober lifestyle.
The guilt from the actions of Gunther’s past continued to weigh on
him, but through Quinn’s encouragement, he allowed himself to start the
healing process. Their steamy relationship tested Quinn’s resolve and
their future together. She faced a decision which would close the door
to one life, opening another that was full of promise.
More survivors ventured into the small town and were allowed to take
up residence at the school. Through love, friendship, and with a sense
of community, growth began. But discoveries were made that would bring
on devastation.
Faced with a battle of a lifetime, some felt survival seemed more like an option than something for which to fight. More secrets were exposed, lives were lost. But, somehow, a little joy and relief followed.
The question that remained was whose heart would shatter and who would be able to move forward?
Book Four Blind Faith
There is no true faith until one follows blindly.
Henry and Elaina Daniels continue to build their relationship, but
everything comes crashing down around what stability they have
established. Even with the birth of their baby and a journey back north,
Henry tumbles further into his sickness.
Gunther Erikkson spends so much time trying to save face, he loses
himself in the process. He allows his carnal desires and needs to take
over, making a mistake that will change his life forever. Deep down, he
feels like he is failing his son, hiding his pain until confronted once
again.
Will Gunther learn to live again, finding it in himself to move forward and be the man Quinn taught him to be?
Affected by the chaos across the seas, Erik Carlson, the head scientist in the program, gathers a team and develops a plan to bring Henry back to the facility. However, the cure he’s offering comes with great consequences. With only one chance at survival, Henry must decide whether to make the ultimate sacrifice, hoping to kill his demons once and for all.
Will Henry accept Erik’s offer, risking death in order to save himself and his relationship?

Ready to meet the mastermind behind these emotional rollercoaster stories?
Rissa Blakeley
is the author of fantasy paranormal series, Corvidae
Guard, and the post-apocalyptic saga, Shattered Lives, which features a
paranormal twist. Her short story, A Little Taste of Naughty, was part
of the best-selling anthology, Just Desserts.
As a native New
Yorker, Rissa is now a Georgia transplant who is completely addicted to
black coffee, La Croix, and obsessively listening to songs on repeat.
Her days are full of characters screaming for more scenes, cats living
up to their Harry Potter namesakes, lazy dogs, a teenage daughter
bringing emo back, and a Viking husband, who finds her puns less than
funny. When Rissa isn’t writing, she can be found procrastinating on
social media.
