Summer of Magic Blog Hop!

 
 

 
Summer Has Arrived & Now is the time to READ!
 
 
One of my favorite things about summer is that it gives us ample time to soak up the sun. What goes better with sunshine than a great book? 
 
In honor of all those days we can read by the pool, or in our lawn chair while we bask in the rays I want to share a few of my favorite summer books with you!
 
Currently Reading:  What am I currently reading, you ask? Well, I have started a wonderful historical fantasy series by J. Kathleen Cheney called Tales of the Golden City. The first book in the series is The Golden City. If you love Sirens, Selkies, historical fantasy and exotic locales (Portugal) this book is for you! The characters are charming and likable and all the while the mystery keeps the whole thing churning.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Favorite Series:  What's my favorite summer series, you ask? Well...I'd have to say that I can read the PsyChangeling Series by Nalini Singh at any time of the year! Her latest release, Allegiance of Honor, is a wrap-up of all the previous stories in that world, and begins a new story arc written in the same world for subsequent novels. A rip roaring good time all around, with swoon-worthy heroes and kick-ass heroines! My favorite book (ever) is from this series: Heart of Obsidian.
 
 
 
 
 
Next up?: What's next on my TBR? I have Releasing Rage by Cynthia Sax! This is book 1 of the Cyborg Sizzle series. I have no doubt that hunky cyborgs will help me work up a sweat in the hot summer sun! I'll make sure I have plenty of sweet iced tea on hand to keep my temperature in check.
 
 
 
 
Well, that's it for my favorite summer reads! Now strap on those reading glasses and throw your Kindle (or other reading device) into a plastic bag and hop in the pool with these awesome books AND a glass of wine (or other beverage of your choice). It's SUMMER, and it's time to act like it!
