Kayla Robbins is living in Tucson, Arizona in 1973 when she joins the ranks of Slayerhood. Not having any idea about monsters, it took her awhile to get clued in about her new reality, but once she accepted it she made excellent progress in her training. Until the day she goes up against one of the worst vampires to ever walk the Earth, John Chilling and is hurt so badly that her Watcher believes she’ll never slay again. But Kayla has other plans. After all, what’s the good of having slayer powers if not to heal herself?

Ever since I watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer in 2015, I’ve loved most things in the Buffyverse. I especially love finding stories about previous slayers. This is a great addition to the world of Slayers though it gets a bit confusing with the dreaming and the flashbacks. There’s no clear sense of time and that’s frustrating. Otherwise though, if you love the Buffyverse, then I recommend adding this tale to your repertoire.

A rock climber who enjoys sex is offered a lucrative proposition. She agrees, signs the contracts and then gets so much more than she bargained for.

Despite the fact I frown on books that start late and end early (8% & 84% for this one) the writing is pretty good, the characters interesting and the plot creative, so it gets a decent rating from me. There’s not much to dislike about this one. I’m a little fuzzy on how the pterodactyl managed to fuck her six ways to Sunday while flying around and the logistics of such a big creature and a relatively small one managing to mate, but this is one is decently enough written that I wouldn’t mind reading more by this author.

Emily is a virgin on a hiking excursion with a college group. She only went because her best friend, who makes fun of her virginity on a regular basis, begged her to come along. Her slutty friend gets it on with some dude in the group, so Emily wanders off. At night. In a foreign country that she doesn’t know. Yeah.

Not horribly written but I’m taking points off for Emily’s stupidity, gallons of cum and yet another hymen located deep in a vagina. In addition, the story starts at 11% and ends at 88%. Short changed yet again. Though the Griffin Prince isn’t short changed at all. He’s huge and yet does no damage to her virgin hole. Or throat. How convenient. Though this is the first time I’ve ever seen a sentence like this: “Cum bubbles foamed from my pussy.” Especially since the position she was in, there was no way she could have seen cum of any kind, bubbly or otherwise, foaming from her pussy. Excuse me, I must now bleach my brain of cummy foam visuals.

Poor little rich girl whose husband is gone all the time, gives her incredible gifts and leaves her on their massive ranch where they apparently have no one working for them.

Where do I start with this? The writing is horrible. I mean, seriously. There are crimes against grammar committed in this story that are heinous. Was it even edited? If it was then the editor needs to find another career. Because, damn. The most positive thing I can say about this is it’s incredibly short. As far as monster porn goes, a bigfoot makes an appearance at the end, but otherwise pffft. I cannot stress enough how horrible the writing is. It’s like a reading train wreck. No. Just, no.

From Goodreads:

Teamed with a handsome government agent, Laila is forced to battle an old enemy. Can she survive without returning to her old bloodthirsty self? The past will bite you. Laila McCarthy is an ordinary professor of ancient cultures. In a world that is changing too quickly, she has lost touch with her Sumerian warrior past as Lamashtu, the first vampire.

I didn’t care really for the artwork and the story was confusing and choppy. I will not be continuing this series.
