Two Chicks Obsessed with Books & Eye Candy

Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Circle of Darkness by Aimee Nicole Walker & Nicholas Bella: Blog Tour, Excerpt, Review and Giveaway

December 1, 2017 by Denise

There isn’t a monster D’Angelo Kumar can’t destroy or a crisis he can’t manage until he meets Angel Bai. The insane attraction he feels toward the sexy waiter is unwelcome because D’Angelo doesn’t have room in his life for relationships. A solitary path is the only option for a man like him, but fighting his growing feelings for Angel may be the first battle he can’t win.

Angel’s abilities extend beyond memorizing the menu at D’Angelo’s favorite Italian restaurant, but he knows better than to trust anyone with his secret. When a vision reveals that D’Angelo’s life is in danger, he will risk everything to save him. The only thing scarier than monsters and demons to Angel is never knowing D’Angelo’s touch.

To say the demon hunter is reluctant to form a partnership with the psychic is putting it mildly, but D’Angelo needs every advantage he can get when the world’s very existence is threatened. As darkness looms nearer, D’Angelo and Angel’s unexplainable connection grows stronger. For a chance at happiness, the two men will need to call upon unlikely allies for an epic showdown between good and evil.

Sexy, witty, and action-packed, Circle of Darkness is the first book in the Genesis Circle paranormal romance series by Nicholas Bella and Aimee Nicole Walker. This book contains sexually explicit material and is intended for adults 18 and older.

I was walking towards my Jeep when I heard someone practically screaming my name. I turned to see the cute little waiter from Martinelli’s rushing up behind me. What in the hell did he want?

He stopped short in front of me, huffing and puffing. “Oh… Oh thank god… I caught you,” he panted. I was pretty curious as to what he wanted, it wasn’t like I owed the restaurant he worked at a tab. Although, I found myself eating at Martinelli’s quite often since he’d started working there. The food was damn good, but I did have to admit, I went on the days Ansell worked. Damn, he was cute as hell. But as much as I loved to gawk at him, he was holding me up from the serious shit.

“Umm, want to tell me what this is all about?” I asked. “I’m in a bit of a hurry.”

“That’s just it… I…” He paused and looked off to the side like he was hesitant to tell me something.

“Look, Ansell—”

“It’s Angel,” he snapped.

For the first time, I saw the fire blaze behind his beautiful brown eyes, which were a lovely feature from his Chinese-American heritage. He had many features that appealed to me that were flattering on him as well. But his eyes… those blew me away. And, well, his lips, too. I’d love to see them where they rightfully belonged—all over my body. I swore, the fantasies I’d had starring him left me with morning wood on several occasions and on the others… sticky sheets.

“I like Ansell more,” I said, purposely ignoring his attempt to correct me. “Look, I’m really in a hurry, so if this can wait…” I let my voice trail off so he would get the hint.

“You’re in danger,” he blurted out.

I cocked an eyebrow. “In danger from what? What the hell are you talking about, and how did you find me anyway?”

“What do you mean, ‘how’? You eat at Martinelli’s more than I do. Besides, you always pay with your company account,” Ansell said, pointing to the sign above our antique shop.

Well, okay, that made sense. “Fine. Now, about this so-called danger…”

“Look, you have to listen to me. I know what I’m about to tell you may sound far-fetched, but it’s all true.” He was looking up at me with eyes that were pleading for me to take him seriously, so I did.

“Tell me.”

Angel is a sweet guy who waits tables at a restaurant and D’Angelo is a semi-regular patron of the dark, sexy and mysterious variety. Most guys look right through Angel, but he feels a connection with D’Angelo that he can’t shake or stop thinking about. The two are thrown together after Angel has a vision of D’Angelo in danger, and he tracks D’Angelo down to warn him. D’Angelo is a demon hunter who works with his best friends who are also gifted in battling the supernatural and saving Earth as we know it from destruction. D’Angelo hardly has time to listen to Angel as he’s just begun a new case tracking down an ancient relic that, in the wrong hands, will unleash a demon that will enslave and destroy the human race. The two try to fend off their crazy mutual attraction as they partner up to find and destroy the relic before the bad guys can activate it.

The plot is pretty fast paced, with a bit of angst between the MCs. Initially they don’t get along, but they start to like each other and become true partners. The angst is external here, that is, these two acknowledge their like for each other rather quickly, it’s all the stuff going on around them that keeps them apart for a while. I liked the MCs: Angel is sweet and inexperienced, D’Angelo is a bit rough on the outside, a good guy on the inside.

The authors are new to me and I enjoyed their world building, with a few characters I wouldn’t mind seeing again. The writing is good but for those who don’t like first person (I’ve seen a lot of comments lately from people who *hate* first person for some reason) be warned that it is first person for both characters — each chapter focuses on one of the two MCs. This doesn’t bother me; I like some insight into the heroes so I know that even though they’re playing it cool, they’re a bundle of nerves inside.

I am a wife and mother to three kids, three dogs, and a cat. When I’m not dreaming up stories, I like to lose myself in a good book, cook or bake. I’m a girly tomboy

I will always choose the book over the movie. I believe in happily-ever-after. Love inspires everything that I do. Music keeps me sane.

About me? Hmmm, I’m just a person with a wild imagination and a love for words who was sitting around the house one day and said, “Why hasn’t anyone written a book like this before?”. As with every storyteller, I wanted to share mine with the world. I like my erotica dark, gritty, sexy… and even a little raunchy. I’m not afraid to go there and I hope you aren’t afraid to go there with me. When I’m not writing, I love watching movies and TV shows, clubbing, biking, and hanging out with family and friends. I love life.

I’d love to hear from you, feel free to send me a shout out!

Two Chicks Obsessed with Books and Eye Candy
My review:The Villain by Viv Allen For the record, I did not read book 1. Because of that I didn't know how truly BAD Devlin was until I got deeper into the story.BUT it is obvious from the beginning that Devlin is a broken man who really believes he has nothing to live for. He has no fight left in him. Until Cian walks into the shed where Devlin is chained up. And Cian isn't all that good either.But Devlin is immediately drawn to Cian and the power he has. And Cian is ready to exploit that. That includes a bit of subterfuge with his crew because they all want Devlin dead because he killed Cian's father. Eye for an eye and all of that.Things twist and turn with some loyalty, disloyalty, rival families and old school wanting to push out and take over the new guys. Something different about this story is the geographical differences. In every mafia book I've read, the territories are close. If not the same city, adjacent cities. Or sometimes NY/NJ. But this was Detroit and some made up town in NJ. Just seemed...odd. But that was just a small part of it.When Cian and Devlin started getting dirty, it was a power imbalance. Devlin was 100% submissive to Cian's 100% Dominant. About the middle of the story that waned a bit but it did pick up again. That power dynamic is super important to who they are.When I have time I want to go back and read book 1 just so I can understand Devlin more.3 1/2 pieces of eye candy ... See MoreSee Less

✨It’s cover reveal day for THESE SECRET YEARS by @augustjonesbooks releasing August 28th! #PreOrderNow mybook.to/TSYWhy you will love this book…🏈college football star x music prodigy🎼forbidden love/secret affair🏈high angst🎼opposites attract🏈grumpy/ sunshine🎼rich boy/poor boy🏈coming of age🎼who did this to you?🏈hurt/comfort🎼mm romanceFour years of keeping secrets, telling lies, and finding the love of a lifetimeSullivanThey say I have a gift because music is as easy as breathing for me. The true gift, however, is the first breath of freedom I’ve had in years—college, bought and paid for by the man who holds my future in his greedy, roaming hands. The first weekend away from him is everything I ever dreamed college would be—a chance to live my own life, form true friendships, and then there’s Knight Winters. The incoming quarterback at our new school who grew up in my hometown is a surprise to me in every way. He makes me question everything. My sexuality, my future, and every mistake I’ve ever made.KnightBecoming the starting quarterback at this school is all part of a plan set in motion since I was old enough to hold a football. As the son of a football giant, playing in the NFL has always been the dream. Here at the University of Southern Missouri, I’m on my way to making it come true. The only thing I have to give up is who I am. I’ve known I was gay for as long as I can remember, but it’s the secret I have to keep to have the life I’ve always wanted.Meeting Sullivan wasn’t part of the plan. From that first night, the attraction, the chemistry, the instant connection has been impossible to push aside and pretend none of it matters. He’s brilliant, he’s beautiful, and he has secrets, too, secrets that are on the verge of breaking him. My obsession ebbs and flows with the seasons here at school, but when we’re back in our hometown, I find myself with a choice I never thought I’d have to make: whether football can give me the life I want, or if it’s him.✨INFLUENCERS: Sign up here to promote this release: bit.ly/TSYSIGNUPCover Credit: winni james design#coverreveal #augustjones #mmromance The Author Agency ...
