                Cailin is a young pixi who has gotten herself into a lot of trouble because she wants to be herself and not hide behind a mask. A human, Teague, is in desperate need of help as an accident has left Teague forever in the darkness.  Cailin is sentenced to help and live with Teague for a year, instead of going to the darkness. As they grow to become friends, they learn to trust each other and truly care for each other. Cailin learns what it means to be a pixi and Teague learns about himself and what it truly means to be happy.

                I give this book 4 stars out of 5. I say this because I found myself highly involved in the book, even lost in the world that C.E Wilson painted. I found that she develops Cailin and Teague in a way that gives the reader an understanding of the person, but has the reader questioning what has happened in the past as other characters get involved in the story. I would have liked for more descriptions on where Cailin lived, and what her sisters looked like. But I have a feeling that these are answered in the books to come. I loved the mystery of Cailin’s father and mother as C.E. Wilson hints to their children paying the price of their crime. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy as it is well written, ORIGINAL, and a fast read. I finished it in about a week of light reading.

Now here a special blurb for Fleeting Fires!


The timepiece ticks and the hour wanes...

The day fades and the night weakens, bringing with it a new dawn we may never see.


The annihilation of New Haven was only the beginning. With King Cyrus still on the loose and a forbidden past still yet to be discovered, Echo Abbeny is finding that her entire existence relies solely on one thing—the acceptance of her gifts as hybrid and the godly abilities she can’t even begin to understand. Or control. Ayden and Kahl are both destined for her love and won’t stop until they’ve claimed her heart, and they’re proving to be an even greater temptation than she could have ever dreamed. And when rumors of a mysterious kingdom in the Sunken City begin to spread like wildfire, spurring chaos between the Xavians, the race against the King and the clock begins…

In the third and final installment of The Bleeding Heart Trilogy, the hour is of the essence, every move will be watched, and death lurks at every corner. A war will be fought and there will be blood to pay. As one of the last oracles on earth, Echo will have to trust herself like never before.


Excerpt from Fleeting Fires:

Want to tell me what’s going on here?” Jakob asked from beside me.

I guffawed. “You mean beside the fact that he locked Echo and I up underground for days and somehow filled her head with his shit?” I rolled my eyes and pinched the bridge of my nose. “If not that, there’s nothing else.”

“Bastard,” I heard Kahl grumble.

“Coward,” I shot back, my eyes burning with the challenge.

“Fool.”

“Ass.”

“R—” Kahl closed the small space between us and gripped my shoulders, pushing me into a wall. “I didn’t have to do much for her to remember!” he rushed to say, a gritted whisper. “But you made her forget—forget me, forget everything. If she wasn’t so foolhardily infatuated with you, you wouldn’t even be alive right now…”

My jaw clenched as the people walking by stopped to stare at us. Conroy, Jakob and the others had slowed to turn back.

“So that’s what this is about. Echo? And not just her, but your past with her.” I shook my head and smiled. “Since we haven’t much time to spare with your idiocy, stop thinking you’re the only one who can help her, Zimmerman,” I grounded. “Infatuation? Were you not the one who had us in cages? I know we just met, but by my book, dragging someone to your own personal Hell is not the way to soften them up.” I kicked off the wall and came to stand in front of him. I was taller by an inch, give or take, and my fists clenched at my sides with the dire need to hit something, anything. “Stay away from her; her past with you is minuscule. Know you’re place, because it damn sure is not by her side.”

I pushed past him, my shoulder knocking him off kilter, and averted Conroy’s gaze as I made my way to the front of the group.

“I can’t,” I heard Kahl call out. I turned to face him and he did the same. “Stay away from her, I mean. I won’t.”

About the author:

Born in New York and raised in Pennsylvania, Nadège Richards has traveled to six other states and two countries, but aspires to travel the world some day. Forever a lover of Art and all things pertaining to Literature, she hopes to obtain knowledge from her writing career, rather than popularity. She wrote her first novel about aliens and goats in the 8th grade and has had a passion for story-telling ever since. Her friends and family are her biggest inspiration. She enjoys being part of the Indie community and sharing her stories with the world.

When not reading, writing, and blogging obsessively, she’s usually found hiking, studying, camping, or at home with her family. She’s been a martial artist for two years, a singer for three, and always seeks a common ground in everything. She considers her writing very personal, as she’s always been a private person. She enjoys writing about what could or should happen, rather than what did happen—she’s a dreamer and a procrastinator.

The Thirteenth Unicorn by W.D Newman

                As a young kid I have always ran to books to escape the stress and pressure of the world. But for a young boy named Ben Alderman discovers his own world when he watches his Grandmother walk into a bamboo forest. Ben follows his Grandmother, to find a tree that serves as a portal into the magical world of Camelot. As Ben travels through this world with his Grandmother and sister Casey he meets many people and creatures. From snake people to fairies to shape shifter and elves Ben makes friends and discovers a dark plot against the world. An evil Witch is now in Camelot, along with the last of the unicorns, and she’s looking for its horn. What will happen with Ben? What is to come of the Unicorn and why does the witch want it so badly? What will become of Camelot?

                This is one of the first books W.D Newman has written and I have to say it was great! This book is pure fantasy right down to how time moves between Earth and Camelot. The plot moves and even the little things that seem unimportant end up being tied into the plot and play a bigger role then thought. Out of 5 stars, I give this book a 4. The beginning was a little slow to get into, but once you get to a certain point the book picks up and you cannot help but read more and more of it. Look for this book on Barns and Noble and Amazon.com and follow his Facebook page: The Thirteenth Unicorn. The second book is called The Black Dragon, and he is working on the third book now.
