Unbreakable cover - (un)Conventional BookviewsUnbreakable (The Legion #1) – Kami Garcia

I never believed in ghosts. Until one tried to kill me.
When Kennedy Waters finds her mother dead, her world begins to unravel. She doesn’t know that paranormal forces in a much darker world are the ones pulling the strings. Not until identical twins Jared and Lukas Lockhart break into Kennedy’s room and destroy a dangerous spirit sent to kill her. The brothers reveal that her mother was part of an ancient secret society responsible for protecting the world from a vengeful demon — a society whose five members were all murdered on the same night.
Now Kennedy has to take her mother’s place in the Legion if she wants to uncover the truth and stay alive. Along with new Legion members Priest and Alara, the teens race to find the only weapon that might be able to destroy the demon — battling the deadly spirits he controls every step of the way.

Under His Protection cover - (un)Conventional BookviewsUnder His Protection (Red Stone Security #9) – Katie Reus

Julieta’s stalker doesn’t play by the rules
Lingerie shop owner Julieta Mederos has worked hard to get her business off the ground. Now she’s looking forward to some quality time with her friends and her big, boisterous family. But explicit texts from random phone numbers and vandalism at her shop makes it clear someone dangerous has fixated on her. Without any solid leads, the police can’t help her and she’s forced to turn to the last man she wants to depend on.
…but neither does Ivan.
Former Army Ranger and newest Red Stone Security employee Ivan Mitchell has gotten used to being alone in the world. He never even thinks about it anymore—until he meets sexy, independent Julieta. She’s everything he could ever want…but she seems determined to keep him at arm’s length. Until now. Maybe the cops can’t do anything to protect her, but he can. When things escalate faster than even he expected, he finds himself pulling out his most extreme combat skills to protect her. He’ll do what it takes to save her life—and prove to her she belongs in his.

Christmas with a SEAL cover - (un)Conventional BookviewsChristmas with a SEAL – Tawny Weber

Subject: Navy SEAL Lieutenant Phillip Banks
Mission: Resist one saucy redhead’s attempts to de-Scrooge him…and seduce him!
Silversmith Frankie Silvera has lost her creative mojo. And she knows how to get it back—by getting her sexy on with a certain hot sailor. Just the thought of Phillip’s hard, Navy-trained body against her, and everything goes molten. He’s the “inspiration” Frankie needs for the holidays!
Navy SEAL Phillip Banks is the prince of protocol. But after his last mission went horribly off-course, all of that control has dissipated. Now he’s at the mercy of one very determined female who is pulling out all the stops on Operation Christmas—including red-hot lingerie and the promise of oh-so-wicked delights… But does giving in mean giving up everything he’s worked for?

      I love Gayle Forman, Grace. Her writing is very well crafter, and her characters always make me wish I could get to know them for real 🙂

      Thanks for stopping by.

      I hope I’ll enjoy Unbreakable, Kaitlin 🙂 So far, I’ve enjoyed Kami Garcia, so I’m thinking this might work for me, too.

      Thanks for stopping by.

      The Legion sounds quite different from the Caster Chronicles, but it still sounds good, right? Thanks for stopping by, Kiran.

      I haven’t watched Supernatural, so I won’t be able to make that connection. Hopefully, that’ll make me enjoy it more than you did 🙂
      thanks for stopping by, Jeann!

    Kami Garcia’s books are always present in our local bookstores, Lexxie. It’s however surprising that I never felt the urge to even pick one. Why is that though? Are her books any good?

    I still need to read Gayle Forman’s books. I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about her Just One Day novel. And I’ve heard that it’s going to be adapted into a movie. Yay! If it’s true then I am going to read it. 😀
