The Unbreakable Bond: September Book of the Month


     It's almost the end of October and I'm just now announcing who my pick was for September. If you're new here, allow me to explain. I'm using a bracket system to find out which book I read in 2021 is my favorite. Each month I record all the 5 heart books I've read and select my favorite to be that month's book of the month. In September I seven 5 heart reviews and each of the books was so good that it was hard to pick one. 


I read 11 books total in September. Most were ebooks.



    Choosing a book of the month for September was so hard that I had to wait until now to announce it, however, I'm pleased to say that the lovely Margaret Malory is this month's author!
    Mallory is the author of Blood Bound, which wins as September's book of the month. It's a fantasy adventure involving soul bonds and the strength of love.
    My Review:
    Blood Bound is a fast-paced, action-adventure, fantasy romance full of love and war. The two main characters are soulmates, bound by blood to find each other in every life they have. Fate is unkind to them, though, as even when they are reborn they are repeatedly betrayed by those they thought they could trust.
    This is book one in its series, and I need to read the next one. It’s amazing. A truly remarkable fantasy romance. The romance scenes are steamy, mature, and very well written. It isn’t cliche and each character has their own distinctive personality.

    Some stories are meant to be told and some people are meant to find each other across lifetimes. Kerrienne is blessed by the Gods. Her powers rival to none.
    A war is brewing and in this fight against a powerful enemy, an alliance with the laird of the MacCleods, rumored to be demon touched, is her only chance.
    Emrick hasn't felt human since his transformation into whatever the hell he was. yet Kerrienne can soothe the wild beast inside him with just a touch.
    This isn't just a love story. This story transcends time. And when they find each other again, the survival of their world will depend on their love.
    Little do they know, they're not just soulmates. Their souls have been branded by the essence of their past lives. Destined to find each other in every single one of their reincarnations.
    As Kerrienne and Emrick fight for the survival of their people, will they survive to find their happily ever after? or will they need more than one lifetime?

Life as I know it

 This blog started as a way for me to combine my two passions - mental health and manuscripts - but it slowly developed more into a writing advice column. Don't get me wrong, I love writing about writing, but lately, I haven't been writing about anything outside of sports and community events. I can't get my personal projects to flow. The characters are 2D and there are only so many ways to describe a forest. I'm going, to be honest, I shifted my focus this year. My writing is catered towards the midwestern lifestyle, despite still having fantasy elements, and my life is catered towards my personal wants.  I've spent too much of my life trying to please others. 2023 has been a villain era for me, where I've stepped into the narrative and have been making conscious decisions based on my own desires. What I want is to be out of debt. What I want is to be a good daughter who can help my parents as their medical issues are starting to become a big hindrance in their

Inspiring The Next Generation with Kestner: April Author Spotlight

  Not every author's journey is smooth sailing. Honestly, if yours is you should be eternally grateful, for you've been hand-picked by the gods to be pampered. Like with every form of art, there will always be critics that try to tear you down and destroy your reputation. How you respond to them can make or break you as an author. Your readers are watching you and how you react.      Amber M. Kestner, the author of lesbian romance fiction, has dealt with more drama in her time as an author than any other author I know personally. That drama has made her stronger, resilient, and determined to stand firm for the LGBTQ+ community.      Originally born in Flordia, Kestner currently resides in West Virginia. She's made it her mission to write stories for the LGBTQ+ community (with an emphasis on the lesbian community) that lets them know they aren't alone.       "Coming out is hard enough in society and actually reaching an audience that has the struggle of coming out t

The One With The Heroic Cover Reveal

    One of the downfalls of being an independent author is having to do your own promotions and marketing. Luckily, most indie authors find themselves part of author tribes that help them out. An author in my tribe is celebrating the relaunching of his science-fiction, superhero series with a cover reveal today. A bunch of us have teamed up to help spread the word of his accomplishment.      Andrew Kirchner has created a new legacy in the superhero community. Ms. Infinity is not your everyday hero. She's stubborn, straightforward, and works as a cashier. I read this series before it was remastered and I'm going to read it again.      On January 12, Kirchner's world once again hits the market with new covers designed by Jill Brock. Here are a couple blurbs about the first two books in this amazing series.  EARTH’S GREATEST HERO      Bonnie Boring of Queens is sassy, smart, and underachieving.
