Book Blitz + Giveaway: TAMING DEMONS FOR BEGINNERS (The Guild Codex: Demonized #1) by Annette Marie


TAMING DEMONS FOR BEGINNERS (The Guild Codex: Demonized #1)
by Annette Marie   
Date Published: September 13, 2019; Dark Owl Fantasy Inc.
New Adult, Urban Fantasy

About the book:
Rule one: Don’t look at the demon.

When I arrived at my uncle’s house, I expected my relatives to be like me—outcast sorcerers who don’t practice magic. I was right about the sorcery, but wrong about everything else.

Rule two: Don’t listen to the demon.

My uncle chose a far deadlier power. He calls creatures of darkness into our world, binds them into service contracts, and sells them to the highest bidder. And I’m supposed to act like I don’t know how illegal and dangerous it is.

Rule three: Don’t talk to the demon.

All I had to do was keep my nose out of it. Pretend I didn’t find the summoning circle in the basement. Pretend I didn’t notice the shadowy being trapped inside it. Pretend I didn’t break the rules.

But I did, and now it’s too late.

About the book:
I’m bound to a demon.

For my entire life, I avoided magic at all costs. Now, I’m responsible for a demon who wields magic more powerful than the toughest mage or sorcerer.

Demons are evil.

That’s what my textbooks say. That’s what I see. He’s ruthless, he’s temperamental, he’s cold. But he protects me without fail. I wonder if he’s hiding a heart behind his hostility.

My demon is a monster.

Heartless or not, my contract with him is illegal and beyond dangerous. Together, we need to find a way to send him back to his own world before anyone discovers our secret. If that wasn’t difficult enough, there’s another problem:

My demon isn’t the only monster I should be worried about.


Mini Reviews: GRAVE MERCY by Robin LaFevers & SEAS OF CRIMSON SILK by Emma Hamm #Review


GRAVE MERCY (His Fair Assassin #1)
by Robin LaFevers

From Goodreads:
Why be the sheep, when you can be the wolf? 

Seventeen-year-old Ismae escapes from the brutality of an arranged marriage into the sanctuary of the convent of St. Mortain, where the sisters still serve the gods of old. Here she learns that the god of Death Himself has blessed her with dangerous gifts—and a violent destiny. If she chooses to stay at the convent, she will be trained as an assassin and serve as a handmaiden to Death. To claim her new life, she must destroy the lives of others. 

Ismae’s most important assignment takes her straight into the high court of Brittany—where she finds herself woefully under prepared—not only for the deadly games of intrigue and treason, but for the impossible choices she must make. For how can she deliver Death’s vengeance upon a target who, against her will, has stolen her heart?

January 2019 Wrap- Up

Hi everyone! In today's post I will be highlighting the books I've read for the month of January. It was honestly a great month of reading for me. My obsession for The Wicked King and Beasts of the Frozen Sun is still going strong and I don't see it lessening anytime soon! Lol.
I read nine books the last month. NINE BOOKS. I had no idea I'd be able to read that many!! (Nine may not sound like a lot for some but for me, that's already a daunting number.)

Without further ado, here are the nine books I read in January..

DEMON MAGIC AND A MARTINI (The Guild Codex: Spellbound #4) by Annette Marie #CoverReveal


DEMON MAGIC AND A MARTINI (The Guild Codex: Spellbound #4) 
by Annette Marie 
Release Date: April 12, 2019; Dark Owl Fantasy Inc.
New Adult, Urban Fantasy 

About the book:
When I first landed a bartending job at the local guild, I didn’t know a thing about magic. These days, I’m practically an expert on the different magical classes, but there’s one nobody ever talks about: Demonica. 

Turns out they have a good reason for that. My guild is strictly hellion-free, because who wants to risk life and limb to control the biggest bullies on the mythic playground? 

Well, some people do, and now a demon has been loosed in the city. My three best friends are determined to slay it, but even badass combat mages are critically out-magicked. And that’s not all. The monster they’re tracking—it’s not hiding. It’s not fleeing. It’s not leaving a trail of corpses everywhere it goes.
