    I ve been writing as long as I can remember and all of my stories always held a thread of romance even when I was writing about a prince who could shoot lasers out of his eyes I love creating unique characters, love giving them happy endings and I even love the voices in my head There s no other job I would rather be doing In September 2002, when I got the call that Silhouette Desire wanted to buy my first book, Desert Warrior, it was a dream come true I hope to continue living the dream until I keel over of old age on my keyboard.I was born in Fiji and raised in New Zealand I also spent three years living and working in Japan, during which time I took the chance to travel around Asia I m back in New Zealand now, but I m always plotting new trips If you d like to see some of my travel snapshots, have a look at the Travel Diary page updated every month.So far, I ve worked as a lawyer, a librarian, a candy factory general hand, a bank temp and an English teacher and not necessarily in that order Some might call that inconsistency but I call it grist for the writer s mill.

    4 Enchanted Star Lord of the Abyss is a bit different from the Nalini Singh books that I m use to reading This creative love story reminded me of a fantastical fantasy you read to children It was a wonderfully whimsical story that was well written, enchanting, romantic, passionate, and featured a lovable cast of motley characters However, as much as I enjoyed the author s storytelling, I did not enjoy listening to it In fact, the narrator almost ruin the story for me I felt she read the book too [...]

    There is a lineage of blood that ties mother to child, a lineage that can never be broken And it is this lineage the queen used to cast her children away from Elden, to safety, so they could one day return and reclaim their stolen birthright.It was a mother s last loving gift, yet the Blood Sorcerer boasts even now that Queen Alvina failed, that he twisted her magic at the end so that instead of finding safe harbor, the heirs of Elden fell into death There is no one left alive to contradict him [...]

    I was very reluctant to start Lord of the Abyss, to be perfectly honest I was simply tired of the disappointment, frustration, and rage that I felt during the whole experience of reading the Royal House of Shadows series I absolutely hated the first book, and disliked the second one And after skimming the first ten pages of the third book, I got bored out of my wits and shelved it I was at the point of giving up on the series altogether when I remembered my friend Erika s praise for this book, a [...]

    4.5 starsYou know what, I figured out recently that I label a lot of really good books 4.5 stars, meaning it was great, but I have some issues with them Sorry, irrelevant here, moving on.Before starting, I should mention that I have read only the first book in the series, the one written by Gena Showalter and found it to be just ok, but this one wascredible It was sweet and in many ways light, and I really loved the characters.Story goes like this Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there [...]

    4.5 flamesdemonloversbooksandThis book was fantastic Absolutely one of my favorites this year Why not 5 flames you ask One thing this was the last book in the series The Royal House of Shadows, and I felt very little closure at the end The book as a stand alone could be a fiver, but isn t a stand alone.But the parts that wowed me Let me tell you the heroine is the Blood Sorcerer s daughter Liliana She is also very unattractive And you know what, by a third of the way in, she wasn t so unattracti [...]

    I have no idea why I waited so long to read this book After all, I love Ms Singh, she s my favorite author and I have a surprisingly large number of her books on my favorites shelf True, I didn t like the first 2 books in the series much, but still Ms Singh, I m terribly sorry for doubting you, I promise it won t happen again Anyway, back to the book I really, really love it.Micah is a great hero, all grumpy and arrogant,powerful as hell, but he s just a marshmallow inside For all him being the [...]

    Book 44.5 starsClearly the best on in the series Here we have a virgin hero and the author does well with this The h is a reverse beauty and the beast The story was wonderful I reduced 1 2 star because I felt the end got sloppy There were too many creatures, conflicts with them resolved too easily and too fast Overall take on series I felt that these should have been stand alones The siblings did little together with each other I was expecting them all to come together to kill the blood sorcerer [...]

    I loved this book and devoured it from start to finish Although it s the 4rth book in a series, I had absolutely no problem understanding the world building or the dynamics between the characters The story starts straight away with the heroine landing on the hero s castle after casting a spell She means to warn him of his legacy and convince him to return to fight the evil sorcerer who happens to be her father before time runs up The hero doesn t remember anything about his childhood and so she [...]

    Lord of the Abyss is Nalini Singh s contribution to the Royal House of Shadows series This fourth and final book focuses on Micah, the youngest child of King Alfric and Queen Olivina.I did not read the first three books in the series, but I did not feel as if I had missed anything The background of the series is recapped well.Micah was taken from his family at a young age and was ensorcelled by the blood sorcerer Micah is now an imposing figure He is the Lord of the Abyss He is a large man, cove [...]

    Lord of the Abyss is the last book in the Royal House of Shadows series and it was by far my favourite Singh crafts a stunning visualization of The Guardian of the Abyss black armor that covers him from neck to ankle, gauntlet arm with sharp talons, blonde hair with winter green eyes This man can only be Micah, the youngest of the Elden heirs and he is definitely my favourite of all the heroes in this series sorry Osborn I loved his arrogance and his determination They were admirable but probabl [...]

    The Royal House of Shadows series has been a little choppy for me while I enjoyed Jill Monroe s Lord of Rage , I really didn t like Showalter s Lord of the Vampires or Andersen s Lord of the Wolfyn books but Nalini Singh has brought it Lord of the Abyss was spectacular I only wish the others were of this exceptional caliber and an amazing finale for this somewhat confusing series.All of the books in this series are loosely based on well known fairy tales Alice in Wonderland, Goldilocks and the T [...]

    Audio Update Top Notch narration by Isabelle Gordon I have read this book a few times, and now am listening Her voice is easy on the ears Her inflections are right, and characters are distinctly portrayed I love this unique paranormal by the talented Nalini Singh I loved the hero Big old human hound, guarding the gate to Hades Happy he found his HEA Liked the heroine, too, and some of the secondary characters down in the Abyss.It is slightly erotic, with pathos and some good chuckles Decent susp [...]

    Standing alone, I give this book high marks It s a unique, highly sensual tale Nalini Singh is an author who always delivers something special But when considering as part of the 4 book series, and the series finale , and discussing the conclusion of the series as a whole, it comes as a disappointment because we get no sense of WHY all of the siblings had to be present at the end We see only Micah and Lily s scene, battling the Blood Sorcerer We don t see the other siblings as a part of what nee [...]

    Great version of Beauty The Beast but the Battle Scene was really anti climatic I was kinda hoping for all the siblings and their mates to have a huge glorious battle, where all their powers would come to full force, and defeat the Blood Sorcerer once and for all that s just what I was expecting and hoping for

    5 shining shimmering starsI just want to turn off my phone, light some candles, and cuddle with this book for a while A long while.I love you, Nalini Singh Other people might profess the same thing, but right at this moment, I love you than all of those other people combined All because you gave me Liliana and Micah There are no faults to this book Sure, some time in the future I might see some things that could have been better or I d adore the heroine or the hero less, but I don t think that [...]

    Sadly, this is the last book of the Royal House of Shadows series I really enjoyed reading all of the books in the series and found Micah and Liliana s story very interesting The other siblings were all old enough to remember their past and knew they had to get home to stop the blood sorcerer but Micah was only 5 years old when it happened and only knows the Abyss as his home He is the Lord of the Black Castle, guardian of the Abyss who is charged with collecting the dark souls that ultimately e [...]

    This was my first book to read in this series, and I m happy to report that the great writing style made this easy to read as a standalone The things I loved most I am usually not a fan of book virginsbut in this read, it was so beautifully and well portrayed The little touches the hero and heroine shared, the kisses, they melted my heart I adored each and every character in this read The plot was fast paced and never dull Full of adventure I loved how the hero was direct with everything Almost [...]

    I didn t read the first 3, but the last one was really really good I loved the heroine, but then again, I tend to like sympathetic heroines who are sweet and not huge egotistical beauty queens It was a good beauty and the beast but with a bit of a twist the hero is beautiful, but acts beastly ish The heroine is ugly, but acts like pure beauty The way the relationship plays out is magical.

    Absolute perfection I loved every single minute of this story Micah was such a unique and wonderful hero His secludedness gave him an unique personality and I absolutely loved how different he was When I first started this book I was expecting him to be gruff and cold, but he s actually quite adorable Liliana was also a great heroine that I enjoyed reading about Most of the time it s the hero s I fall for, but you can t help but admire and respect her She was the perfect counterpart to the Lord [...]
