Welcome to our blog!
Amy and Jennifer ARE Seduced by Books. We’re both in our 30’s, moms, close friends, work together, and share many of the same interests including our love of reading. Amy grew up in Maryland and has been obsessed with Vampires for as long as she can remember. Jenn grew up in Florida and loves the furry, the fey, and the fangs, in that order. Currently we are both in Orlando, FL. When we can be pulled away from books, Amy loves to bake and Jenn loves to take pictures and scrap.
We decided to create a place where we could direct friends, and acquaintances for, book suggestions/recommendations (Jenn’s been known to talk to strangers on the train while traveling in NYC). Once we started out with a simple page, we evolved from there. Now we are sharing our book reviews, fun comments, recipes, and giveaways. We try to give reviews on new releases, pre-releases, and oldies but goodies that we read, or are reading. We’re going to be adding author interviews for established and up and coming authors soon.

Envy by J R Ward


As the son of a serial killer, homicide detective Thomas "Veck" DelVecchio, Jr., grew up in the shadow of evil. Now, on the knife-edge between civic duty and blind retribution, he atones for the sins of his father- while fighting his inner demons. Assigned to monitor Veck is Internal Affairs officer Sophia Reilly, whose interest in him is both professional and arousingly personal. And Veck and Sophia have another link: Jim Heron, a mysterious stranger with too many answers... to questions that are deadly. When Veck and Sophia are drawn into the ultimate battle between good and evil, their fallen angel savior is the only thing that stands between them and eternal damnation.(courtesy of Amazon)


Here's the deal - I LOVE JR WARD - LOVE Over the top the Brotherhood series, so when I saw she had the Fallen Angels series, and it has ties to some of our favorite characters in the BDB series.  WIN WIN - Ward started it off awesome with Covet (Book 1) but I was a little disappointed in Crave (book 2) - well saddle up, because she brought me right back on tract with ENVY (Book 3). 

The chemistry between Veck and Reilly is intense, I totally love they completely give into it.  I was on the edge of my seat reading it and at 480 pages - I was up late that night, because I just had to finish it.  Maybe I was in a funk when I read Crave - but who cares, because Envy blows it out of the water.  And still the battle of good vs evil rolls on - must read!!!
