Innovative Online Book Tours: Seduced By Innocence




BLURB:
Seduction comes in many forms.

"Liquid fire poured into me, filling me with the intimate sense of him as he leaned in to claim my lips with his own. I reached for him, needing him closer, but my arms couldn't close the distance between us, which grew wider with each hitched breath. So close to finally feeling something real, something carnal and deep, I cried out in frustration, dropping my hands as he disappeared. My cries deepened into a frenzy of panic and my eyes flew open. I clutched my blanket and stilled myself to calm my racing heart.

Just a dream. Always just a dream."

Rose Wintersong didn't have an ordinary upbringing. Raised in what most would call a hippy commune, but what is actually a powerful coven of witches, she never questions the life fate chose for her.

Until she meets Derek O'Conner.

Derek challenges everything Rose believes and forces her to see the secrets hidden beneath the whitewashed walls of her idyllic country life.

Rose knows she should walk away, that the sexy martial arts instructor is bad news bred to create discord in her tight community… but the animal magnetism between them is impossible to fight.

Caught between the passion of first love, and the steady beat of the life she's always known, Rose must choose between the innocence of her youth or the pleasures of womanhood—but lost innocence comes at a price, and Rose harbors a dark secret that could destroy everyone she loves—including Derek.

Submit to the Seduced Saga as Derek and Rose face their future while unraveling the mysteries of their past.

Look for these books in 2013.

Review: Up until now, I've only read Kimberly's Three Lost Kids books and I've loved all of those. So I was excited about reading her new Seduced Saga and so far I haven't been disappointed.

I think this is actually my first foray into the New Adult genre that has a touch of erotica to it. It also has some great paranormal elements too.

I wasn't sure how I was going to react to Rose. She was innocent yet totally in touch with her sexual nature, even though her powers prevented her from acting on them, in the usual fashion.

Derek on the other hand was really easy to like. He was sexy and a bit of a bad boy, but with a soft side that cared for his family.

Then there was the conflict between the coven and the Druids.

OMG! The plot twist that happened there. Could not believe it it.

This book was sexy, sweet and it also leaves you dying for the next book, which is thankfully out already.

Innovative Online Book Tours Book Review: The Three Lost Kids & Cupid's Capture



Author: Kimberly Kinrade
Title: The Three Lost Kids & Cupid's Capture
Publisher: Evolved Publishing
Publish Date: Jan 17, 2013
Buy: Amazon
Review Copy Provided By: Innovative Online Book Tours & the author
Book Blurb:Lexie is very unhappy this Valentine’s Day. She can’t get anything right, and her hearts all look horrible. In fact, everyone at school seems to be in an extra grumpy mood.

When she and her sisters consult her magic Mirror of Ice to find out what’s going on, they are transported to Heartland, the home of Cupid herself, which is under attack by a scary monster.

When Cupid is captured, the girls must navigate the Maze of Misdirection, pull themselves out of Apathy, and survive against attacking Cruel Crawlies in order to find the Chasm of Broken Hearts… and save Cupid. But first, Lexie has to learn to love herself just as she is, otherwise Valentine’s Day will forever be filled with broken hearts.

Review: Kimberly Kinrade takes us back into the world of Lexie, Maddie and Bella and their dog TayTay. This time the book takes place during the Valentine's holiday.

There's something causing everyone to be grumpy.

In true Lost Kids fashion, the girls end up in a magical world with Cupid, but she soon is captured and the girls have to save her to save Valentine's Day.

Like all the other Lost Kids books, there's a moral to this one, but it doesn't overshadow the adventure the girls have along the way. That's what makes The Lost Kids series such fun to read, no matter what age you are. There's the magic the girls have when they are in the other worlds, but there's also the real life lessons they learn along the way. (In this case, learning to love yourself...with a little bit of a reminder that you should accept people for what they are, even if they are different from you)

So yeah, I'm 38 years old, but I have to say, I've loved each of the books I've read in this series. They are cute and fun reads!

Review: Kimberly Kinrade's The Three Lost Kids series continues with The Three Lost Kids and The Christmas Curse. This is the perfect holiday book for the little girl in your life that's reading chapter books.

The Christmas Curse is one that every little girl and boy has made at Christmas.

"I wish it could be Christmas everyday!"

However when Bella gets her wish, things go wrong.

This book is great fun, because it reminds us what "Christmas" really should be for. For giving of ourselves to others..

The story will remind you to be careful of what you wish for, and it will have you laughing and maybe even crying along the way.

I came to like Lexie, Bella and Maddie in the The Three Lost Kids and The Death Of The Sugar Fairy, but I fell in love with them in this book.

This is a story kids and parents will love!

Innovative Online Book Tours: The Three Lost Kids and the Death Of The Sugar Fairy


Author: Kimberly Kinrade
Title: The Three Lost Kids & The Death Of The Sugar Fairy
Publisher: Evolved Publishing
Publish Date: Sept 25, 2012
Buy: Amazon
Review Copy Provided By: Innovative Online Book Tours & the author
Book Blurb: Halloween is here and Lexie, Bella and Maddie couldn't be happier. But why does everything feel so different? Fewer houses are decorated and fewer kids are out trick-or-treating. Still, that's not going to stop the three girls from eating as much candy as they can before their parents can stop them, even if that means fighting each other for it.

When they finally discover a haunted house worthy of their favorite holiday, they forget their parents' warnings and go in alone, only to discover that the house really is haunted, and not only that, but they've been transported to a whole different world!

A dying Sugar Fairy in one of the abandoned rooms send them on a quest to find her Sugar Baby and the magic Sugar Flower in order to save her and Halloween. If they fail, Halloween will be gone forever, and they'll never return to their family. But with Sugar Bug attacks, the Cavity Caves where they must face their deepest fears, and giant gummy bears armed with candy cane swords, the girls aren't sure they'll make it.

Their only chance is to work together, using each of their strengths to help each other. Can they stop fighting over candy long enough? Or will they be trapped in the dying Sugar Land forever?

Review: Kimberly Kinrade's Three Lost Kids series continues with The Three Lost Kids & The Death Of The Sugar Fairy.

This is an absolutely great Halloween story that parents and kids will love.

Halloween is Maddie's birthday, but this year isn't turning out quite the way she expected.

The book hints at some of the stuff in the past 3 books of The Lost Kids series when the girls end up in the Haunted House, but it nothing that will put young readers off, if this is the first book from the series that they grab. In fact, it will likely make them want to read the rest of the books.

Lexie, Bella and Maddie are fun kids and their quest to find the Sugar Baby and the Sugar Flower is a fun adventure. Plus in saving the Sugar Fairy, they also save Halloween! And a world without Halloween is just not a fun place at all!

Ms. Kinrade also delivers the story with a moral. The usual one associated with Halloween. But she doesn't do it in a way that makes you feel that candy is bad and we must not eat any of it.

Definitely a fun book and a fun series for anyone turning the pages.
