THE UNYIELDING by Shelly Laurenston (Kensington TP / March 28, 2017 / 978-1-61773-513-4)
“Campy, rage-drenched hilarity with a side order of Norse mythology, retold through a cast of diverse characters, The Unyielding is Part 3 of a trilogy wherein the Norse gods have human clans of warriors on Earth. The Crows are loyal to the goddess Skuld; their motto is “Let rage be your guide.” This book, and the whole series, is the superhero television show you wish you could watch as well as a meditation on finding your true allies and friends. After all, when you’re heading into life’s daily battles, you should always know the answer to the question: ‘Who are my sister Crows?’” – NPR, 2017 Great Reads on The Unyielding

THE BETTING VOW by K.M. Jackson (Dafina MM / August 29, 2017 / 978-1-4967-0572-3)
“What happens in Vegas definitely does not stay in Vegas in The Betting Vow. Leila Darling is a supermodel with a temper and aspirations to be taken seriously as an actress. Carter Bain is a television executive in charge of launching a new network. To do that, he needs a star – someone like Leila. A late-night, high-stakes card game leads to a marriage of convenience – and that leads to sexy, satisfying romance in which the wedding is just the beginning of the happily ever after.” – NPR, 2017 Great Reads on The Betting Vow
