Audiobook Review: Wicked Bite by Rebecca Zanetti

Wicked Bite
(Realm Enforcers Book 5)
by Rebecca Zanetti
Narrated by Brock Thompson

Blurb:

“Fast-paced romance . . . very compelling. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal

As she hunts for a drug lord killing her fellow witches, all Nessa Lansa’s instincts point to the Grizzly motorcycle club. That might be because their leader, Bear, is the strong, silent shifter type: warm brown eyes and more muscle and alpha male than any woman can ignore. Which makes Nessa’s plan to seduce and betray him all the more dangerous . . .

Bear doesn’t trust the curvy, blue-eyed witch. But Nessa can heal the injuries that sap his strength. And since he can’t stop thinking of her lush body and teasing smile, her plan to mate him to reclaim her own power is highly tempting. Just one problem. Once a desire this wild is loose, no one will ever control it . . .

Viviana's Review:

OMG! I've been waiting to get Bear's story and this did not disappoint! It was fast paced and had the right amount and blend of romance, suspense, action and everything we've come to love about this series!!

We've gotten glimpses of Bear in the first few books but we knew he was a good guy and we hoped that we got to know more about this sexy man. I was extremely happy that Bear had a larger part in the previous book and we also got to see a different side of the man (no worries, he still is grumpy and completely alpha).

Nessa, oh Nessa! She has a plan and runs with it. She comes across a bit meek and vulnerable though that's not the case... at all. She was strong and smart which is something I LOVE in my heroines!


Narrator Review:
Oh I LOVE Brock Thompson's performance! Besides giving each of the characters their own tones/voices, his yummy voice in general, I love how he performs female characters. He totally brings the characters to life!

Overall, while I'm sadden that this is the last book in this series, I've LOVED each and every one! This one isn't any different! I do hope that Rebecca will revisit these characters or create a spin-off!

Rating: 4.5 Stars - I REALLY LOVED IT

Audiobook Review: Wicked Kiss by Rebecca Zanetti

Wicked Kiss 
(Realm Enforcers Series, Bk #4)
by Rebecca Zanetti
Narrated by Brock Thompson 

Blurb: 

Working as an informant for the DEA, Victoria Monzelle is used to living on the edge. But she's not a big fan of getting kidnapped. And definitely not by a bunch of bad boy witches with fancy-colored fire to shoot at people. So when Adam Dunne shows up and claims to be a witch enforcer, she's not going to put her life in his hands based on his word, no matter how smooth and smart and beautifully Irish his words sound. But on the run from a tribunal of witches, she isn't going to make it far....

Before she knows it, Adam's word is all that stands between her and execution. Sophisticated, just-gotta-ruffle-him Adam has vowed to make her his one eternal mate - wild and unpredictable as she is - to save her from a sentence of certain death. But Tori isn't interested in being anyone's pity date. And if they think she's unpredictable now, they should see what's coming next....

Viviana's Review: 

I loved this book and ended up texting Rebecca regarding the dedication! It was awesome!! So was this book! Its a great continuation of the story and series and makes you want more!

Filled with moments of suspense as well as thrills, WICKED KISS had it all, including romance! 

The characters are well developed and readers will connect with them.

Narrator Review: 

I love Brock's performance! He brings life to all the characters and has a very yummy voice. This is a perfect match between author and narrator!


Overall, a great read that makes you want more! 

Rating: 4 Stars - I LOVED IT!

Book Review: Wicked Edge by Rebecca Zanetti

Wicked Edge 
(Realm Enforcers Series #2)
by Rebecca Zanetti 

Blurb: 
Daire Dunne is more than ready to take a quick break from his duties as a Coven Nine Enforcer. When he spots a sexy blonde across a Titan’s of Fire party, it’s not long before she’s on the back of his Harley on the fast track to his apartment. Unfortunately, one overheated kiss in, the woman drugs Daire and steals valuable files that can’t fall into enemy hands. The second he comes to, the hunt is on...

Now that Cee Cee has the information to take down an enemy that destroyed her family, she can implement her perfect plan for revenge. Nothing will stop her, not even a shockingly sexy enforcer barging into her life. Not even the spectacular, fire-branding sex engulfing them. But if Daire ever figures out who her family really is, all bets are off...

Viviana's Review:

Woohoo - a heroine that stands her ground and doesn’t need a man to save her!  Yes!  Thank you, Rebecca!  CeeCee is not only smart and can kick ass, she also knows how to accept help.

Daire is one enforcer who prides himself on not only being tough but not letting others outwit him, so you can imagine he was all too happy when things first transpired between him and CeeCee.

I loved that the two had chemistry and were never ashamed or held back.  Loved even more that CeeCee never waivered in what her true mission was, regardless of the emotions involved.

This installment was packed with action that keeps the reader not only on the “will they be able to save” pins and needles type but also moves the story forward as well as provides so potential ideas of what’s to come.

Loving this series and can’t wait til the next one!

Rating: 4 Stars - LOVED IT!

Book Review: Take The Storm (Rising Storm #6) by Rebecca Zanetti

Take The Storm
(Rising Storm Series, #6)
by Rebecca Zanetti

Blurb: 
Secrets, Sex and Scandals … 

Welcome to Storm, Texas, where passion runs hot, desire runs deep, and secrets have the power to destroy… Get ready. The storm is coming.

Marisol Moreno has spent her youth taking care of her younger siblings. Now, with her sister, Ginny, in crisis, and her brother in the throes of his first real relationship, she doesn’t have time for anything else. Especially not the overtures of the incredibly compelling Patrick Murphy.

Viviana's Review: 

I really enjoy TAKE THE STORM. While Marisol and Patrick have significantly less drama going on then the rest of the town (and this was sort of a nice break at the same time), the readers still have just enough "what will happen" to keep them coming back for more. I like that Marisol has a really good head on her shoulders and isn't willing to jump into anything with Patrick (or anyone else) just for the sake of it or even if it's something that she want. She puts her family first. However, I wish she'd recognized that she needs to take of herself every once in a while and that both Ginny and Luis could benefit from having Patrick around.

Speaking of Luis, it was nice to get a bit more information as to what is going on with the 'younger' residence of Storm. However, with this being episode 6 and being more than half way through this season, it's painfully obvious that we are going to be left with cliff hangers until the next season.

Overall, this was a great and enjoyable read that makes you want to grab the next installment! 

Rating: 4 Stars - I Loved It!

Book Review: Wicked Ride by Rebecca Zanetti

Wicked Ride 
(Realm Enforcers Series, Bk #1)
by Rebecca Zanetti 

Blurb: 
If you love the Dark Protectors, these wicked hot Realm Enforcers are for you!

Alexandra Monzelle is a hard-fighting, heat-packing Seattle vice cop, and she’s not much interested in being protected. Her short skirt and sex-kitten heels are tools to lure her suspects into talking about the deadly new drug hitting the streets. She can take care of herself and then some. Unfortunately, she can’t seem to get that through to Kellach Dunne.

Kellach is a fresh import from Dublin, and he’s landed at the heart of a vicious motorcycle club that deals in guns, narcotics, and mayhem. He’s all male, all rough power—and all interference in her damn investigation. Maybe he’s one of the good guys. Maybe not. Lex knows an affair with an immortal like him would risk everything. No matter how delicious he looks…

Viviana's Review:

This is a spin-off series from Ms. Zanetti's DARK PROTECTORS, and I'm told that there are quiet a few cameos from that series in WICKED RIDE, however, you don't need to read that series in order to enjoy this book. With that said. I will tell you, that after finishing WICKED RIDE I want nothing more than to pick up the DARK PROTECTORS series! Again, you will fully enjoy/love WICKED RIDE without having read the previous series. 

I really loved WICKED RIDE! Couldn't put it down. Didn't want to, had to, but didn't want to. The heroine is one touch woman that doesn't allow her past to limit her future. She works extremely hard at her job and it's one that she's very good at. Oh how I LOVED that she not only kicked ass, but was strong and independent but she was slightly over 30 years old!!!! THANK YOU!! In a world where the majority of the heroines are in their early to mid 20s, having a sexy, kick-ass one that is desired, (oh and NOT a single mom, BONUS), yeah, it was AWESOME to read that part! Alexandra was a heroine I truly enjoyed reading and hope to see her again throughout the series!

Ahh Kellach! An enforcer of his race and determined to stop the distribution of the drug known as Apollo, his plans do not include meeting Alexandra or having her hinder his investigation. Yet, that strong willed woman is just as determined as he is and while they both have the exact same goal, each has their own method and laws to uphold. Kellach is on SEXY Irish man, that is extremely powerful and deadly, yet has this gentleness about him. I love how Rebecca wrote the "accent" for Kellach! It allows the reader to hear it in one's head.

Rebecca did a fantastic job of weaving the development of Alexandra's and Kellach's relationship within the plot of the major arc of finding the distributor of Apollo as well as who is after the Witches. It was a great mix of the action and romance. Oh yeah, and the steaminess was just at the right level!! HOT! She also did a great job of introducing the readers to the different characters that I'm sure will have their own stories in books to come.

This was my FIRST Rebecca Zanetti book but will not be my last. I've officially become a FAN of her books! Can't wait for the next installment "Wicked Edge" which is scheduled for release on November 10, 2015.

Rating: 4.5 Stars - Really LOVED It
