Once upon a dark time…
Greta the human bounty hunter never quite fit into the shadowed, icy world of Mylena. Yet she’s managed to defeat the demon Agramon and win the love of the darkly intense Goblin King, Isaac. Now Isaac wants her to rule by his side—a human queen. And the very announcement is enough to incite rebellion…
To make matters worse, defeating Agramon left Greta tainted with a dark magick. Its unclean power threatens to destroy her and everything she loves. With the Goblin King’s life and the very peace of Mylena at stake, Greta must find a cure and fast.
Her only hope lies with the strange, elusive faeries in the Glass Kingdom…if she can get there before the evil within her destroys everything.

My Thoughts
Greta And The Glass Kingdom puts readers right back into the thick of the unrest in Myleana.  Only this time, Greta has a front row seat for all of the drama unfolding inside The Goblin King's castle?

How can she not?

She is slated to become his queen after all!

That is if his subjects can stop themselves killing her or each other before the coronation.

And...
If she can find a way to control the powerful, dark magic coursing through her.  Threatening to consume her very soul at the slightest lapse in her control.  Pushing Issac toward his Goblin nature with each passing day.

Their only hope?

The elusive court of the fae. In the long closed Glass Kingdom.

Or are their promises of aid and friendship just another lie?
Are the risks worth the possible gains?
Will Greta, Issac, and Myleana survive?

This book is stunning!  Issac and Greta are better than ever! The threats to both their lives and the kingdom are growing more numerous by the day, and there are still humans left to find and save.

The world of Greta And The Glass Kingdom is so easy to get lost in.
The characters, creatures, plot twists, betrayals, and unexpected alliances.  Coupled with the romance breakneck pace and ever present action, takes this series and all who read it to a new level of fantasy.

Every aspect of this story is perfect.  This is the type of story that creates readers.  The kind of read that requires snacks, a favorite reading spot, scheduled trips to the bathroom and a serious DO NOT DISTURB SIGN!

   Read below for an excerpt from Greta and the Lost Army:
The streetlamps cast soft cones of light on the sidewalks all the way through the neighborhood. Greta pointed things out as she remembered them. “That’s where my friend Danielle used to live. I guess she probably still lives there.” “Are you looking forward to seeing her again?” She nodded. “And if I remember correctly, she’s more hyper than a Mylean berserker—only less ripping and tearing, and more frenzied hugging and constant talking.” The rumble of his amused chuckle made her grin. He squeezed her hand. She looked up at him, and it hit her. “You know, this is kind of like a date,” she said, tingles of awareness dancing up her spine. His smile was crooked, and his eyes warm as he laid his arm across her shoulders, making her feel like he would rather be here with her right now than anywhere else. It probably wasn’t true. They were both too worried about Mylena for it to ever leave their minds completely, but maybe one day it would be true. “What would be the purpose of a date?” There was such a thing as courtship in Mylena, but she and Isaac had pretty much bypassed anything resembling normal…in both worlds. What if she was wrong and the portal didn’t open again? What if they stayed here? There could be more nights just like this, and eventually maybe they would get a place of their own and… “You know, so a couple can get to know one another and decide if they like each other.” “But we already know we like each other.” When they were alone like this and his voice softened because he trusted her enough to let down his guard, it did crazy things to her. Like popping candy hitting her bloodstream. “Even more important, we know that we fit together. In battle together, or planning for Mylena’s future, even while arguing…and definitely when I kiss you…nobody fits me like you do.”

The Giveaway: Winner’s choice of $5 Amazon Gift Card or a print or eBook copy of Greta and the Goblin King or Greta and the Glass Kingdom. As well as notebook, a pen with the words "Dream bigger darling," and Hammond's candy.
