Author Bio

USA Today Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan never thought she’d be a writer. Not really. No, she loved math and science and even went on to graduate school in chemistry. Yes, she read as a kid and devoured teen fiction and Harry Potter, but it wasn’t until someone handed her a romance book in her late teens that she realized that there was something out there just for her. When another author suggested she use the voices in her head for good and not evil, The Redwood Pack and all her other stories were born.

Carrie Ann is a bestselling author of over twenty novels and novellas and has so much more on her mind (and on her spreadsheets *grins*) that she isn’t planning on giving up her dream anytime soon.

With her blue-black hair and striking green eyes, Cailin Jamenson is the epitome of beauty and the exemplar of strength. She has fought the enforced boundaries of being the lone Jamenson daughter and Redwood Pack princess, but it is the potential future with the dark wolf in her path that threatens everything she thought she desired.

Logan Anderson’s own darkness provided the reasoning for his abandonment of his former Pack, the Talons. Now, newly accepted into the Redwood Pack, this jade-eyed wolf and all she represents could be his own undoing.

In this final installment of the Redwood Pack, unimaginable tragedy strikes, and the two wolves who have fought the longest for their independence now face the uncertainty of fate and the epic battle that could end the war… and their lives.

Review Tangled Innocence by Carrie Ann Ryan

Description

Humans aren’t as alone as they choose to believe. Every human possesses a trait of supernatural that lays dormant within their genetic make-up. Centuries of diluting and breeding have allowed humans to think they are alone and untouched by magic. But what happens when something changes?

As one of the seven lightning struck women, Nadie Morgan has known for a while now that her fate would be forever changed…and revolve around a certain dragon. From the first time Dante Bell saw Nadie, he knew she was the one for him. There's just one problem--there's another in his life he's waiting on as well.

When Jace Goodwin, a bear shifter and Mediator, finally comes back to the human realm after years away under circumstances out of his control, his first stop is to Dante's Circle where he not only finds his dragon, but the woman they both have been waiting for. 

Once secrets are told and the sparks fly, Nadie's new life becomes something she never thought possible. However there's another realm at play and Jace and Nadie's dragon will have to fight harder than he's ever fought before to keep the life he's waited eons for.

Warning: Contains one not-so-innocent human, a bear known for his bear-hugs, a tattooed and pierced dragon with a fiery temper, and a connection so explosive, you'll be fanning yourself from page one.

My Review

I have to say that I love this series by Carrie Ann, and enjoy trying to figure out what type supernatural the lightning struck women are going to turn out to be. I won't spoil what Nadie is supposed to be but I didn't really see that coming. This is the fourth book in the series and I was so glad that Dante got his story. I love Dante and the push and pull he had with Nadie, however I don't like that Nadie was ready to give up. The reasons Dante had for staying away were justified however I feel he was misguided  in his thinking. I liked that Carrie Ann made Me mad at Dante and feel for Jace and Nadie.

This book will have you wanting to slap a couple of the characters upside the head, frustrate you, make you jealous that you don't have your own Dragon and Bear Sandwich. Yes I went there. It was a fast read, with tons of action. I can't help but think that I wanted it to be longer in length.

Overall it was a great read... I can't wait to read Faith's story which will be the next book in this series.

I rate it 4 out of 5 Genie Lamps

Review Her Warriors Three Wishes (Dante's Circle Book 2) By Carrie Ann Ryan

Description

Humans aren't as alone as they choose to believe. Every human possesses a trait of supernatural that lays dormant within their genetic make-up. Centuries of diluting and breeding have allowed humans to think they are alone and untouched by magic. But what happens when something changes?

Ambrose Griffin is older than most, if not all, civilizations. As each year passes, he submerses himself into his training, only relaxing around his protégée and friend, Shade. After losing his wife and children in the last Angelic Wars, he guards his heart and has no desire to share it with another.

Bookkeeper and romance novel enthusiast, Jamie Bennett dreams of being swept off her feet by a white knight. However, her life is no romance book. Since meeting Ambrose--a sexy, delicious angel--she's been twisted inside out and doesn't know why. Things are happening that she can't control and now her life is in danger.

My Review

This is the second book in the Dante's Circle Series and I have to say I enjoyed this book even more than Dust of my Wings. I think it is due to the characters and the twist that Carrie Ann threw into this book. Which I just loved.

Ambrose is very guarded in this and tends to be kind of an ass to Jamie as he doesn't want to end up hurt again. When Jamie ends up in hell Ambrose will do anything even almost start a war to get her back.... Jamie also meets Balin who is just smoking hot in a devil may care sort of way And is shocked to find that a Love Triangle has nothing on her,Ambrose,and Balin when true halves of your soul are found. 

Jamie's true self is released while she is in hell shocking all those including herself due to the power she possesses. I think that Jamie might be my favorite so far in this series as she has to go through so much and her "kind" doesn't take to her becoming one of them as easily as Lily's Brownie Family took to her becoming one of them. 

Carrie Ann again has kept secondary characters relevant and even give us some more of Lily and Shade :) I am loving this series and can't wait to see what is next in this series as Carrie Ann did leave us with a little taste of what is going to happen next.

*I tried so hard not to ruin this as I hate spoilers but i think i gave some key things away. 

I rate this book a 5 out of 5

My Review

This is a great start to a series. I really liked Lily and Shade they had a lot of chemistry and Lily is stronger than she thinks she is even when her world becomes disorganized. Shade is there to fix a little dust issue in order to protect secrets of the paranormal world.

This book has a bit of everything (good vs evil, who did it, What is going to happen next, and of course sexy scenes).  There were strong secondary characters, it was sweet where it needed to be, the characters grew and the ending leaves room for the next book in the series.

Carrie Ann has set the stage for a wonderful series thanks to a little bit of freak lightning and a group of girlfriends who are in for a bit of change. Was glad i bought this book and Her Warriors Three Wishes(book 2) at the same time.

Review of Charmed Spirits by Carrie Ann Ryan

Description

Jordan Cross has returned to Holiday, Montana after eleven long years to clear out her Grandma's house, put it on the market, and figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life. Soon, she finds herself facing the town that turned its back on her because she was different. Because being labeled a witch in a small town didn't earn her many friends...especially when it wasn't a lie. 

Matt Cooper has lived in Holiday his whole life. He's perfectly content being a bachelor alongside his four single brothers in a very small town. After all, the only woman he'd ever loved ran out on him without a goodbye. But now Jordan's back and just as bewitching as ever. Can they rekindle their romance with a town set against them? 

Warning: Contains an intelligent, sexy witch with an attitude and drop-dead gorgeous man who likes to work with his hands, holds a secret that might scare someone, and really, really, likes table tops for certain activities. Enough said

My Review

So I really enjoyed this book which is Book 1 of the Holiday,Montana Series and was lucky enough to spend time talking with Carrie Ann Ryan at the Fredrick Book Festival where i bought this book and two others. Here is my review.

Jordan and Matt have a lot of unresolved issues due to Jordan leaving town so many years ago without even a goodbye. Jordan comes back to a close minded town which made her life hell, her plan is to flip her grandma's house, sell it and leave. However things are not that easy. Throw in a bigot asshat for a town mayor, his crazy sister who doesn't understand the word no, unresolved issues, a mystery ghost, steamy table top sex, and learning to forgive and love no matter what... You get Charmed Spirits.

There so many things about this book i like, for me it was a fast read, but it made me laugh, want to cry, pissed me off, and to think there are still 4 more Cooper brothers... I like that when i read a book it makes me feel a lot of different things and this book did that. There were a couple issues... On was that the blurb says Aunt's house but it is Jordan's Grandma's house.  Typo's happen so no big thing :)

I Rate this book a 4 out of 5
