WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words.

The Three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?

What did you recently finish reading?

What do you think you’ll read next?

Here is what I am reading, what I recently finished, and what I plan to read from Thursday to Wednesday.

Let me know if you have read or plan to read any of these books!!

Happy Reading!

What I am currently reading:

The world is a dangerous place in 2016 and the United States has become more isolated than ever before. Things get unimaginably worse when two nuclear devices are detonated in the atmosphere over the United States. The country is torn to pieces and only the strong can put it back together again.

Nick is stuck in traffic on his way to work in Denver. General Sutherland is on his way to Ft. Drum for a routine inspection. Sandra is sitting on her porch and drinking her morning tea.

The United States of America is about to change forever.

What I recently finished reading:

One brilliant young hacker. One experimental government aircraft. One chance to keep it all from going up in flames.

Still recovering from her troubled past, Farris is no stranger to change. But when the military transfers her father across the country to an experimental aircraft squadron, settling in to a new life is the least of her problems. As a series of apparent computer glitches threaten the security of the fleet and the blame falls on her father, she decides to put her computer skills to use digging up the truth. Soon she’s drawn into the perilous world of a hacker who is determined to ground the fleet–at any cost.

When all signs lead to someone close to her as the mastermind, Farris will have to burn more than bridges to get to the truth. She will have to risk her fragile new life to uncover the identity of the cyber criminal before they can escalate from harmless tampering… to all out murder.

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

Maya Bellegarde has spent her entire life searching for a way to break the curse hanging over her and her People. As part of her quest, she volunteers to investigate an anomalous burial at a Swedish archaeological dig where a rare cache of documents has been discovered side by side with an ancient symbol linked to the Seven Sisters, the progenitors of the People.

While in Sweden, Maya meets James Terhune, an attractive archaic language expert, and invites him to take on a position at the Institute for Early Cultural Studies, the People’s main historical research branch. James is thrilled by the opportunity Maya extends and intrigued by the attraction he feels for her. He soon begins to suspect, however, that the secrets of the grave are minor compared to the secrets Maya holds, secrets that could hamper their burgeoning relationship and cripple the work they’ve undertaken for the IECS.

The People aren’t the only ones interested in the newly-discovered documents. An ancient enemy of the People resurfaces, threatening the lives of Maya and James’ loved ones, and setting in motion a chain of events that could save the People, or destroy them.

Daniella Nehring is a fierce warrior with a turbulent past. Born in the earliest days of World War II to unknown parents, she was raised by Rebecca Upton, one of the People’s most notable leaders. Dani has always had questions about her parents’ identities, information Rebecca refuses to reveal, leaving a gaping hole in Dani’s own identity.

Dani travels to New York on Rebecca’s orders to search for the mysterious woman who stole a copy of the Prophecy of Light from the People. There, she teams up with Dave Winstead, an FBI agent working undercover with the People’s most ancient and deadly enemy. Dave has a soft spot for the young warrior that divides his loyalties between her and the job he took in order to fulfill a promise he made a decade and a half before, a promise he’s determined to keep, no matter what the cost.

As Dani and Dave are drawn deeper into the hunt for the missing artifact, Dani’s immortality is jeopardized, and with it, her ability to reclaim the Prophecy tablet. When she learns the truth about her heritage, Dani must confront her past in a struggle that will change her life forever.

After fourteen years, Indigo Dupree returns to Tellowee, Georgia, to face the past she left behind. She’s tried of running, tired of hiding, and wants nothing more than to help her mother through the final days of her pregnancy. What she doesn’t want is to become romantically entangled, not even to the sinfully handsome Bobby Upton, whose kiss sent her fleeing a decade and a half before.

Bobby is the son of the Blade and a ruthless warrior in his own right. At sixteen, the age of manhood among the People, he tried to claim the woman he loved and failed, and spent the next decade hacking his way through Uncle Sam’s enemies. Now a successful businessman, he’s given the task of tracking down the People’s enemies, including India Furia, the twin sister of his heart’s only love.

Duty demands that Indigo atone for the sins of her sister by helping to bring her in. India has other ideas, ones that draw Indigo and Bobby into a deadly game involving the Prophecy of Light, forcing Indigo to choose between her duty and her heart.

Among the People, Hawthorne the Chronicler is well-known for two things: Her faithful rendition of their history and her inclination to behead those who betray her. To mortals, Hawthorne is better known as Al C. Hawthorne, a fantasy writer with a stellar imagination and a knack for complex stories. It is in this guise that she must track down the sources of comic book illustrator Aaron Kesselman’s modernized tales of Rebecca the Blade.

Hawthorne’s blunt words and lithe grace intrigue Aaron, enough for him to take her up on the offer of sharing her bed. Before he knows it, his heart begins the fall into love, a fall he’s willing to take if only he can persuade Hawthorne that she isn’t a two thousand year old immortal descended from one of the most ruthless warriors in British history.

The past isn’t the only obstacle standing in the way of true love. The Eternal Order is on the move, targeting key members of the People in their never-ending quest to extinguish the Light. Hawthorne soon learns that a strong arm and a sharp blade aren’t always the best weapons in a Daughter’s arsenal, especially when her heart is involved.

Daughters of the People: Immortal Amazons unjustly cursed, struggling to save their People, and their hearts.

What are you currently reading?

What did you recently finish reading?

What do you think you’ll read next?

Here is what I am reading, what I recently finished, and what I plan to read from Thursday to Wednesday.

Let me know if you have read or plan to read any of these books!!

Happy Reading!

What I am currently reading:

Bring on the shots and the strippers!

I’m the ruler of Hel as well as a demon-controlled section of North America.
I’m also in charge of elven labor relations, and a bachelorette party.

The bachelorette party thing is kinda cool, but the bridesmaid dress I’m being forced to wear isn’t, and neither is the fact that Gabe is going to be the one walking me down the aisle. If we make it to the altar without either of us killing the other or being struck by divine lighting, it’ll be a damned miracle.

Worse, my adopted angel, Lux, has misunderstood his duties in the upcoming nuptials and this isn’t a problem I can brush under the rug.

What I recently finished reading:

Where’s the support group for demon parents?

Samael, the OG Satan who no one has seen in over two million years is supposedly roaming the world and killing angels, just like all those Elvis sightings. If Elvis was a murdering Fallen angel, that is. As the new-and-improved Satan, it’s my responsibility to track him down and bring him to justice.

I can’t even manage to keep my adopted infant angel from repeatedly killing his corporeal form, but somehow I’m supposed to get control of Hel and face down the Fallen archangel whose shoes I’m struggling to fill.

It’s going to be the shortest fight ever, but if I don’t win, it won’t just be my funeral. Samael has changed, and if he wins, the world under his iron fist will fall into chaos—the bad kind of chaos.

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

Once more the fate of mankind rests on Satan’s shoulders.

A stupid misunderstanding has broken a ten-thousand-year old contract between the fae and the angels, and humans are now paying the price. Fairies are crossing through portals and freely kidnapping men, women, and children without fear of reprisal. The humans have no idea what’s happening to these random people, and the angel’s answer is to close the fae portals every couple of days and establish a committee to study the problem.

And nobody has time for that.

It’s up to me to get the Seelie queen to back down, to bring peace to a war-torn realm, and to rescue a bunch of teenage fairy girls—all while planning my wedding. Because the solution to every problem is chaos, and that’s what imps do best.

What I am currently reading:

Samantha Martin may be the leader of Hel, but she is also an imp in debt to a sorcerer. Luckily he’s vowed to wipe away all the favors she owes for one job – retrieve a stolen gem.

But Gregory also needs her help. Interdimensional rifts are opening, spilling supernatural creatures into the world of the humans. Locating and closing the gateways takes a team of two – an angel and a demon.

It’s the opportunity Sam has been waiting for, the very thing that might allow demons and angels to put aside nearly three million years of hate. But the gem has a dark power – one that could shatter any hope of peace between heaven and hell. Which task takes priority? Sam is at a crossroads, where either choice leads to a dark future.

What I recently finished reading:

Samantha Martin didn’t want the title of Iblis and all the hellish responsibility that comes with it. She sure as heck didn’t want these feathery angel wings permanently affixed to her back– although those have their perks. She especially doesn’t want all the extra projects the Ruling Council keeps dumping on her plate.

Tricked into protecting a pregnant woman, Sam discovers that her hasty vow came with a whole lot of strings attached – strings that make her question her trust in Gregory. In order to keep her promises, she’ll need to rely on old friends as well as a house full of unlikely allies.

As if that weren’t enough chaos for an imp, the angels finally find proof that werewolves are Nephilim – the descendants of fallen angels. An entire race is facing extinction and their only hope for salvation is an angel from Hel.

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

The elves have a plan to save humanity…by enslaving them. And the angels are too busy to intervene.
Aaru is at war. The rebel angels are calling for Sam’s exclusion from the Ruling Council and her banishment to Hel. But Sam’s isn’t the only future at risk. If they’re defeated, Gregory and his brothers will face exile, losing everything they’ve spent billions of years to build.
The fate of heaven and earth is in the balance, and only an angel from Hel can save them both.

Where’s the support group for demon parents?

Here is what I am reading, what I recently finished, and what I plan to read from Thursday to Wednesday.

Let me know if you have read or plan to read any of these books!!

Happy Reading!

What I am currently reading:

For once no one wants to kill Samantha Martin. She’s free to do all the things a mischievous imp loves to do- like remove all the county speed limit signs, and wrap City Hall in crime scene tape. Her only worry beyond organizing the delivery of her boyfriend’s birthday present, is writing those pesky four nine five reports for the Ruling Council of Angels. But imps can never stay out of trouble for long.

Demon corpses have been found drained of all energy, their spirit selves ripped clean from their bodies. Sam’s angel, Gregory, considers her a prime suspect, so when an angel is discovered dead in the same manner, he drags her to Seattle and Juneau to try to clear her name. The race is on to find the murderer before Sam’s secret is exposed and she’s blamed for the deaths. But is a devouring spirit really the killer, or is there more to the deaths than either Sam or Gregory suspect?

What I recently finished reading:

Sam may be the Iblis, but she is also an imp with a price on her head. The powerful demon, Haagenti, won’t rest until she’s dragged back to Hel for “punishment”. Sam knows she can’t face Haagenti and win, so when an Elf Lord offers to eliminate the demon in return for her help, Sam accepts. It’s a simple job – find and retrieve a half-breed monster dead or alive. But finding this demon/elf hybrid isn’t proving easy and time is running out.

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

Sam is banished to Hel, the bond with her angel, Gregory, broken. Six Elven kingdoms are battling for supremacy, and she’s broken and injured in the middle of the most hostile one. Shooting the top off a royal throne, committing fraud in the completion of a contract, and threatening a high lord hasn’t endeared her to the elves, either. If she wants to free the enslaved humans they hold, she’ll need to find a way to help unite their kingdoms.

But elves aren’t the only problem facing Sam. The ancient demon, Ahriman is holding her to the terms and conditions of the breeding contract she signed – and one thousand years under his claw is looking to be the most terrifying thing in all of Hel.

Samantha Martin didn’t want the title of Iblis and all the hellish responsibility that comes with it. She sure as heck didn’t want these feathery angel wings permanently affixed to her back– although those have their perks.

What I am currently reading:

Imps just wanna have fun.

All Samantha Martin wants to do is drink beer by the pool, play mischievous pranks on the humans, and get her hot neighbor in the sack—oh, and avoid the angels who won’t hesitate to execute her on sight.

But when her naughty hellhound lands her in trouble and she’s blackmailed into catching a killer, Sam finds herself in the crosshairs of the very beings that want her dead. Run to Hel and give up all the earthly pleasures she’s learned to love? Stay and face a certain death? Or use her impish wiles to and hope to survive?

WARNING: This completed series has laugh-out loud antics, an OCD werewolf, and a sexy angel. Get ready to binge read!

What I recently finished reading:

The highly anticipated follow-up to J.K. Hawk’s 2014 Novel, The Nameless Survivor; President Patrick S. Zimmerman, faced with a new viral mutation, must take matters into his own hands in order to create a cure that will save all of humanity. Assembling a team of Veteran grunts, they set out into the wilds of Northern New England to seek out the revered son of a famous survivor in the hopes that the answers they need are somewhere within the adolescent boy’s genes. Away from the safety of their colony, thrusted back into the chaos that has befallen the world, they optimistically push forward into the unknown. But the land they are traversing has become more deceiving and violent than they could have ever anticipated. Outnumbered and Ill-equipped, they must fight through the remains of The Great Outbreak, but they must also defend against the living, whom are even more ruthless than the formidable Infected. Will they ever find The Nameless Survivor and his son? Can they bring an end to this bottomless Apocalyptic Nightmare? How will their own humanity endure even if they can manage to survive?

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

Samantha Martin is an imp, bound by an angel who allows her to live among the humans . . . as long as she follows his rules. It’s not easy for an imp to follow the rules, especially when Sam’s brother, Dar, finds himself in hot water. He needs her help to retrieve an artifact from the vampires, or the powerful demon he owes a favor to will enslave and torture him for centuries.

It should be a simple courier job, but with demons nothing is simple. Sam reluctantly attempts to help her brother, trying not antagonize the vampires or the demon gunning for him, all while chafing to comply with the restrictions her angel has placed on her as a bound demon.

Sam may be the Iblis, but she is also an imp with a price on her head. The powerful demon, Haagenti, won’t rest until she’s dragged back to Hel for “punishment”. Sam knows she can’t face Haagenti and win, so when an Elf Lord offers to eliminate the demon in return for her help, Sam accepts. It’s a simple job – find and retrieve a half-breed monster dead or alive. But finding this demon/elf hybrid isn’t proving easy and time is running out.

Publisher’s warning: This adult contemporary romance contains explicit sexual content and graphic language. Not intended for those under the age of 18.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Free clinic nurse, Jamie Henderson, has been slogging through life in cement-filled boots for the past six months. It’s been damned hard to get past her recent betrayal, but she’s determined to try.

When two men chase her, she manages to escape, but the near attack shakes her to the core. Now more than ever, she needs to take back control of her life.

Arson investigator, Max Gruden, is called to a blaze at an abandoned warehouse only to learn a man was found clinging to life inside. After the victim is rushed to the hospital, Jamie, a woman who has intrigued Max for a while, tries to cross the police barrier, searching for answers about her friend who was burned in the fire.

What starts out as a simple friendship between Max and Jamie quickly turns into a blaze of passion. When she finds herself a target in a terrorist plot, Max is enraged and promises to do everything in his power to keep her safe.

GENRE: Medical Romance, Contemporary Western Romance, Erotica ménage romance, MFM

You aren’t free to love until you realize you can’t make someone love you back.

As builder Pete Banks is finishing a remodel for psychologist Zoey Donovan, she arrives home dazed, injured, and distraught. As he calms her down, she draws him in with her halting story of how Thad Dalton, a local cop and Pete’s roommate, saved her life. When Pete learns Thad was shot, he’s torn between staying with a woman in need and being there for his roommate.

Zoey never intended to blurt out to a man she’s never met how she almost died, but Pete’s understanding nature alters something inside her. Usually, she’s the one trying to figure out her clients’ needs, not the other way around. While Pete Banks is one of kind, she can’t tear her mind from Thad, the man who risked his life for her.

Detective Thad Dalton was never so scared in his life when a madman grabs Zoey in the hospital corridor and threatens to kill her if his demands aren’t met. Thad ends up taking a bullet to save her but would do it again if it means having her in his life.

When Zoey, Thad, and Pete attend Thad’s parents’ anniversary party sparks fly. She realizes she wants a more personal connection to these two men. While Thad’s on board, Pete doesn’t think he’s worthy. His self-loathing forces him to retreat and casts doubt on their future together.

Zoey and Thad are justifiably both mad and hurt. It’s going to take a miracle to patch this threesome back together for their happily ever after.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE: This adult contemporary romance contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable (ménage, violence). Not intended for those under the age of 18.

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

For five years, Ellie Hart struggled to create a new life for herself. It wasn’t easy to mend her broken heart, but she’s finally found the contentment she’s been searching for. Her new-found happiness is fleeting, however, when her life is threatened, and she’s forced to turn to the one man she never wanted to see again.

Ellie’s back in Vic’s life and he’ll do anything and everything to keep her there. He has passion and desire on his side—it burns even hotter this second time around.

Intrigue and danger come between the new lovers, and Trent’s convinced being with him could put her in peril. What does she need to do to convince him they belong together no matter what?

In the aftermath of an unimaginable pandemic, a hand-written journal is discovered from within the ruins of a ravaged survivor’s colony. The faded entries depict the personal accounts of a nameless refugee as he abandons a dying society for the security of New England’s secluded mountains. After years of peaceful solitude, he unexpectedly rescues a young girl from winter’s wrath. Mia, who unlike him, has experienced firsthand the horrors that have befallen the world. As her trust in him strengthens and their friendship grows, he is driven to help her overcome the abuse she has endured and prove to her as well as himself that life, love, and God are still worth fighting for. Ultimately their loving and happy world is crushed when they are unexpectedly thrown back into the chaos to face the evil that has transformed man, as well as the evil that man has always been. Will their love survive? Will they survive?

The highly anticipated follow-up to J.K. Hawk’s 2014 Novel, The Nameless Survivor; President Patrick S. Zimmerman, faced with a new viral mutation, must take matters into his own hands in order to create a cure that will save all of humanity.

New York Times Bestselling Author Joanne Wadsworth brings you her bestselling Highlander Heat time travel series. Readers are loving it!

Traveling through time…for a Highlander.

Anne MacLeod’s identical ancestor has made a wish on the Fairy Flag at Dunvegan Castle, one which sees the two young women swapping places in time and leaving Anne set to handfast with the very man her ancestor wished to escape. Only Anne sees the possibilities, because now she could change the future and ensure her parents never perished in the inferno which took their lives.

Highland warrior Alex MacDonald has made an agreement to handfast with Anne in order to bring a halt to the feud raging between their clans. The last thing he expects though is a woman claiming to come from the future, a woman who stirs him on a physical and emotional level to protect, and to even believe.

When Anne finds herself in her MacLeod chief’s presence, she chooses to go with him in order to leave a message for her parents. In full pursuit, Alex wages a battle of the heart, and of the very essence of time. Can he defy the odds as Anne is taken from him…to work his own magic and get her back?

What I recently finished reading:

Sam Berner is a man obsessed with movies and forever in search of adventure, yet a complete coward at heart – a walking mass of contradictions!

It was supposed to be a quiet drink after work with a friend.

It turned out to be a surreal encounter with a mysterious woman, an ejection from a window into an alleyway and a chance meeting with a one-eyed man who gives him a strange device as a gift.

Sam’s night goes from bad to worse, as he realises the device is not a gift at all. He ends up hurtling inside a mind bending nightmare through time that not even he could have imagined in the wildest movies of his imagination – and he’s playing the lead role…

What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

Arianna Dubray is nothing like the girl she left in Baltimore. Once a Prada shoe wearing, Michael Kors bag carrying, on top of the world seventeen-year-old girl, Arianna knew that her life would never be the same when she got out of the car in middle-of-nowhere Montana. Canyon Michaels is the keeper of his own dark secrets. Plagued by his family name, he’s forced to prove the town wrong and make it on his own. The last thing Arianna needs is a reason to stay, but with every passing day the decision to leave becomes harder. Once their paths cross nothing can tear them apart, other than the secrets that start to surface and the nightmares that soon become their reality.

Killing is wrong. The reason doesn’t matter.

Oncology nurse, Amber Delacroix is totally distraught. She’s the number one suspect in a mercy-killing case–her brother’s no less!

Finding comfort in the arms of the paramedic who treated her brother, Amber’s budding relationship with the compassionate and kind Stone Benson heats up. Just as they begin to explore new ground, Stone reveals shocking news: sharing his women with his roommate is his preferred sexual lifestyle.

That might not be so bad if his friend didn’t happen to be the insensitive detective Cade Carter who accused her of the murder.

Now it’s up to all three of them to clear Amber’s name as the murderer, so the men can take mercy on her body…

You aren’t free to love until you realize you can’t make someone love you back.

As builder Pete Banks is finishing a remodel for psychologist Zoey Donovan, she arrives home dazed, injured, and distraught. As he calms her down, she draws him in with her halting story of how Thad Dalton, a local cop and Pete’s roommate, saved her life. When Pete learns Thad was shot, he’s torn between staying with a woman in need and being there for his roommate.

Zoey never intended to blurt out to a man she’s never met how she almost died, but Pete’s understanding nature alters something inside her. Usually, she’s the one trying to figure out her clients’ needs, not the other way around. While Pete Banks is one of kind, she can’t tear her mind from Thad, the man who risked his life for her.

Detective Thad Dalton was never so scared in his life when a madman grabs Zoey in the hospital corridor and threatens to kill her if his demands aren’t met. Thad ends up taking a bullet to save her but would do it again if it means having her in his life.

When Zoey, Thad, and Pete attend Thad’s parents’ anniversary party sparks fly. She realizes she wants a more personal connection to these two men. While Thad’s on board, Pete doesn’t think he’s worthy. His self-loathing forces him to retreat and casts doubt on their future together.

Zoey and Thad are justifiably both mad and hurt. It’s going to take a miracle to patch this threesome back together for their happily ever after.

Publisher’s warning: This adult contemporary romance contains explicit sexual content and graphic language. Not intended for those under the age of 18.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Free clinic nurse, Jamie Henderson, has been slogging through life in cement-filled boots for the past six months. It’s been damned hard to get past her recent betrayal, but she’s determined to try.

When two men chase her, she manages to escape, but the near attack shakes her to the core. Now more than ever, she needs to take back control of her life.

Arson investigator, Max Gruden, is called to a blaze at an abandoned warehouse only to learn a man was found clinging to life inside. After the victim is rushed to the hospital, Jamie, a woman who has intrigued Max for a while, tries to cross the police barrier, searching for answers about her friend who was burned in the fire.

What starts out as a simple friendship between Max and Jamie quickly turns into a blaze of passion. When she finds herself a target in a terrorist plot, Max is enraged and promises to do everything in his power to keep her safe.

But once separated from his fellow warlords, he soon finds himself mired in a web of conspiracy none had foreseen.
