Love
or Death? A simple question really. The choice seems obvious. But.
What if you never knew love, what if your life was spent just trying
to survive? What if you knew your fate before you were fully grown?
And
then you died.
And
you were given another chance. A better chance.This new life depended upon one thing: your job. And so you agreed. You thought it would be simple. You thought it would be cut and dry.
It
never is.
And
now you are left holding the fate of someone else in the palm of your
hand and you have to make the ultimate choice.
Love
or Death?
About the Series:
A little info about the series: Death Escorts is a new series from the
author of the Heven and Hell series. This series is unique because each
book acts as a stand alone, meaning that you don't have to read all the
books in order to understand each of them. They are all based off of the
same idea (that idea being the characters are all Death Escorts) and
will have some of the same characters in each book. The series is for
young adults and beyond and encompasses the elements of romance,
thriller, paranormal and fantasy. You will not see vampires, shifters,
witches, fae or any type of those kinds of characters in this series.
About the Author:
Cambria Hebert is the author of the
young adult paranormal Heven and Hell series and the upcoming
Death Escorts series. She loves a caramel latte, hates math
and is afraid of chickens (yes, chickens). She went to college for a
bachelor’s degree, couldn’t pick a major and ended up with a
degree in cosmetology. So rest assured her characters will always
have good hair. She currently lives in Pennsylvania where she is
plotting her next book. You can find out more about Cambria and her

My Thoughts and Review:
In
honor of the Fire & Ice hop I decided to do a post about kissing.
That’s right. Kissing. This blog hop is all about romance and love
and kissing usually goes along with that.
And
I have to tell you that I think Dex and Piper in my new book,
Recalled, share a pretty awesome first kiss. But you’ll have to
decide that for yourself.
Today
I am not going to talk about kisses in books, only because the list
would never end and my brain might actually start to hurt. So instead
I am going to talk about some of the best on screen kisses that you
might want to cozy up on the couch to watch.
Now
I don’t use some fancy rating system, I’m just listing the kisses
that I thought were hot! See if your list is close to mine!
(these
are in no particular order)

I don’t know about you but watching all those kissing scenes has

Personally the last two are my faves.

My Thoughts and Review:
Cambria has blown me away with her
writing in the past, her Heven and Hell series is one of my
favorites. So really, I shouldn't have been so surprised that I loved
this one as much as I did.
Really what was I thinking? I should
have know Cambria wouldn't give us anything less than her best and
her best, well, it is pretty darn fabulous.
Maybe I was just apprehensive about
trying something new from her since I love Heven and Sam so much, but
really, again, I shouldn't have been.
Dex and Piper? They are every bit as
great as Heven and Sam, just in completely different ways.
I loved Dex from the moment I met him.
Sarcastic, gruff, damaged but still you could see that heart of his
in there. You knew he wasn't all bad, just put in some bad
circumstances that helped shape the person he turned out to be.
In other words, Dex was somewhat of a
bad boy (but not in the typical drinking, womanizing, tattoo covered
way) and we all know how I love those damaged bad boys. I can't help
it, I think it is a sickness.
Before I get to Piper can I just talk
about Frankie first? I loved Frankie! She is everything I love in a
great secondary character. Witty, loyal, true, a little kick butt,
heck, she is everything I love in a main character. Having her as a
secondary character was just icing on this already delicious cake.
I really liked Piper too. I didn't
quite connect with her on the level that I wanted to but I did like
her. She didn't always have all the answers but she sought to get
them. She was good and honest and had a heart of gold. She was
willing to forgive and love unconditionally and you have to love her
for that.
G.R. (aka Mr. Burns) what can I say
about him without giving too much away? Gasp I actually liked him.
Yep, I said it. For some reason I liked the villain in this one.
There was just so much to him. I am really hoping we get to see a lot
more of him as the series progresses and get a bigger better view of
his background and past.
This was a really fun read and I liked
all the crazy twists in it. I can really see myself loving this
series more and more as it progresses.
It will be a lot of fun to see where
Cambria takes it from here. I can already tell that she is going to
have another hit YA series out there that a lot of people are really
going to enjoy.
3.5 to 4 Stars!
