Grim Reapers Are To Die For ~ T-Shirt
Charley, Charley, what can you say about our favorite Grim Reaper.....she's Awesome!!!! This is a great second book to the series, we can't wait to read book 3!
Kiki & I have been talking....Kiki really had her panties in a bunch about the end of the book, they say love is blind, but goodness its being blind and deaf with Charley..... My panties were O.K., I'm not happy with it, but live and learn....the hard way.
This book is full of action, from helping Cookie find a friend that ends up being a huge, twisted case. Trying to decide what to do about her mystery man who is now found or missing and dying or who knows. Charley is in love with Reyes (who isn't,Yummy), but the whole Son of Satan thing, well she's still having issues digesting that whole issue. If that isn't enough she is dealing with family, we all know how much fun that can be. Oh, and course there is the growing tension with Garrett who may want to be a part of Charley's dreams as well. Especially now that he totally believes in her and what she is!! Never!!!
Happy Reading!

First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones
Kiki & Jules Rating: 5 stars and wish we could give more!!
If you wanted to dip into the inner most thoughts and workings of Kiki & Jules, this book would be the first place to start. Charlie Daniels not only shares that same sarcastic personality that we are known and loved for, but if she we walking here and now we would most defiantly be BFF's with her!!
We don't know how to start with this review. Every time we stop, even for the slightest moment, to put into words all that comes in this book, Kiki and I get caught in a fitful of laughter. With the tee-shirt and bumper sticker quotes at the beginning of each chapter, the non-stop action, and the laugh your ass off humor in between you will be unable to put this book down.
"Don't fear the Reaper. Just be very, very aware of her." -Charlotte Jean Davidson
Charley Davidson is not your typical private investigator. She has a certain knack for solving the most complicated crimes for her detective Uncle Bob and the Albuquerque Police Department with no evidence. How is that? Charley talks to the dead!! See, Charley is the Grim Reaper. Not the typical one you think of when you picture the Reaper , but more like a portal for those who have passed. You know when they tell you to go into the light, well she is that light. In some cases the recently deceased didn't die in usual terms or has unfinished business, so in comes her PI business. It has worked well for her so far, and has catapulted her uncle in to detective stardom in the police department. But things are about to change!!
Charley has been having some very disturbing dreams. And when I say disturbing, it's not in a bad way. But the figure in these dreams seems to be incorporeal, but he feels so real and someone she has meet before. As Charley becomes obsessed with finding her mystery man, she also is asked once again to dive into a mystery for her uncle and the PD. With the unwanted help of the best skiptracer, and possibly one of the sexiest men alive, Garrett she tries to unravel the mystery of the deaths of three lawyers. The bad news this time is that she will have to do some real investigating because the lawyers didn't get to see who killed them. Can Charley help the PD, find her mystery man, and will she like what she finds? Thank goodness for the most awesome assistant, Cookie, and her retired cop father or else Charley may not make it out alive!!
Trust us when we say this is a MUST READ!!
Happy Reading

Paranormal Couples We Can't Get Enough Of
We all have our favorite characters. Jules and I especially have a few we seem to not get enough of, so we thought we would share our top 5 can't get enough of paranormal couples.
First and Foremost - Cat and Bones from the Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost (Too Hot!!)
A Very Close Second - Matthew and Diana from Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness
Tie for Third - Charley and Reyes from the Charley Davidson series by Darynda Jones plus Mac and Barrons from the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning
Tie for Fourth -Knight and Dulcie plus Rand and Jolie (even though Sinjin is our favorite) both series by H.P. Mallory
Last but Definitely Not Least - Maggie and Declan from the Demon series by Linda Wisdom (We also love all the witches from the Hex series and their sexy loved ones)
**Young and Noteworthy: These young ones we love to read about, but can't really put them in the "grown-up category"
Clary and Jace, Alex and Magnus, Simon and Isabelle from the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare
Tessa with Will or Jem (whoever she chooses we like) from the Infernal Devices series by Cassandra Clare
Meghan and Ash from the Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa
