A Daring Sacrifice by Jody Hedlund


Official Summary:
In a reverse twist on the Robin Hood story, a young medieval maiden stands up for the rights of the mistreated, stealing from the rich to give to the poor. All the while, she fights against her cruel uncle who has taken over the land that is rightfully hers. Forced to live in the woods and hide with the poor people she's grown to love, she works to save and protect them, but she never anticipates falling in love with the wealthy knight who represents all she's come to despise.
 My thoughts:
I loved this book! Juliana, a former lady turned homeless, is such a good person. She thinks that she is the only one who can help her followers and is very loyal to them. She faces death a couple of times and stands firm for what she believes in every time. Colin, a boy from her childhood, is also a brave soul. He understands loyalty too since he is a knight and is able to understand how Juliana feels about the helpless. The two of them are one of those unstoppable couples, once they are together it is hard to outsmart or be stronger than them. Their falling in love story is so exciting and the action in the book is good too!
This book is a good clean romance/adventure. It is available for purchase. Buy on Amazon.com!
Be Brave!

A Noble Masquerade by Kristi Ann Hunter

I'm one of those people who always has my nose in a book, I used to say I can't pick a favorite book but now I can. And I can never get tired of this book! I own both the kindle and audible book. I no joke read it around 3 times a month, it never gets old :) I love the characters, the plot and conversations. Miranda is one of those ladies where it is hard for her to control her emotions and the man she loves can see her in a way no one else can. He understands that it is hard for her to keep her spitfire temper in check. They always have witty banters and are constantly doing things to throw off the other's plan to make them mad. But behind all this plotting they both know they love each other and in the end there is a very wonderful Happily Ever After. Book 3 also shows some of their story. I love all the books in this series and would recommend reading all of them!

Court of Midnight and Deception by K.M. Shea

  Summary of Book 1 below my review.   Do you ever read a book and just instantly love the characters? That is what happens every time I read a K.M. Shea book! I don't know how long ago it was when I discovered her books, but I love every single one of them. I recently re-read her Court of Midnight and Deception Series and I enjoyed every moment of it! I really love it when you can re-read books and you want to keep reading because the book is just that good.   The book is set in the USA but there are magical beings walking around with humans. Leila, the main character, is half human and half Fae. She is suddenly told that she is the queen of a kingdom of Fae known as the Night Court. She has such a fun personality, once she realizes that she has to be queen she puts 100% into it and just keeps on being her happy, sarcastic self. I couldn't stop laughing at the many funny situations Leila gets into and the many funny things she says. I also love her inner circle, ea...
