Empath
Empath Trilogy # 1
By- H.K. Savage
Genre- YA Paranormal Romance

All she wanted was to disappear…

Claire Martin is an empath. She's lived her entire life as a slave to a constant barrage of emotions that weren't hers. Off to college, she hopes simply to blend with the crowd where she can best hide her curse. Within her first few weeks at school Claire meets Stephen Andrews, a small, fragile looking boy who changes her life forever. ??

Stephen, a boy with a secret of his own, instantly recognizes Claire for what she is. It is through Stephen's aid that Claire meets James, a vampire with a talent of his own. As soon as they touch, their abilities connect in a way that has not occurred in over three hundred years forming a bond that cannot be broken.

Bonded
Empath Trilogy #2
By- H.K. Savage
Genre- YA Paranormal Romance

The bad guys are licking their wounds leaving Claire and James to enjoy what promises to be a merry Christmas. Until a traitor among them delivers Stephen and Claire into enemy hands.

Past lovers, obligations and rivalries compete, all the while the bond between Claire and James grows and Claire is pulled further toward the vampire side. James is growing dependent upon her to feed his humanity, and the boundary that separates them is no longer clear.

A potential husband and a job working for the Court threaten to take Claire's newfound control over her life from her and stick her firmly under someone else's thumb. She must try to keep her wits about herself enough to figure out what she wants before the ability to decide is gone forever, and try not to get any of her loved ones killed in the process.

Secrets
Empath Trilogy #3
By- H.K. Savage
Genre-YA Paranormal Romance

Paris, everyone is together and forgets for one night about the looming threat of war between the races for a wedding. But no sooner are their vows exchanged than the newlyweds are called upon to serve the Court.

Stateside, an old photograph turns up with a member of the vampire's Court and several other men linked to an organization called Nightshade Holdings, LLC. More digging reveals how deep Nightshade's influence extends and just how deeply the Court itself is involved in the plot to start an interspecies war.

Love is found, old friends die and a greater enemy than any thought possible is revealed. It will take everything for the clan and the vampires to stop the war before it is too late.

  


My Review-

I received a free copy of the book from the author for my honest opinion.
First let me say that I am so glad that Claire met Stephen and he knew about her ability right off and knew that she needed help and introduced her to James. With James Claire learned a lot. She not only learnt how to control her abilities she got to feel what it was like to have someone love you so much that they would give their life for each other. They would do anything and everything to save not only each other but the people that have become their family. Like the cats; Stephen, Troy, Tonya, Tara, as well as Henry a vampire and Heidi who is a human and one of Claire's best friends.
Claire is one tough chica and very bold as well as indenpendent. With all the danger and paranormal creatures that is always on the look out for her and wants her dead she still takes more chances than she should. She is going to live her life as close to normal as she possibly can. Claire has got herself into a lot of heavy major fights, some of them were her fault but not all. Of course she never asked nor wanted any of it but she had no choice. If she didn't sneak out away from James' sight once in awhile she might not have gotten herself in so many fights. But Claire is not going to just sit back and let someone else scare her.
Since Claire has become a vampire she has become stronger in so many different ways. Claire has kept a lot of her humanity when she was turned. She is learning and growing as a vampire a lot faster than most. I think that Claire's heart is what has helped her to become stronger faster. She still loves and cares for her human family and friends and will to what ever it takes to keep them alive. They are all fighting to keep the humans, vampires, cats, weres, witches and all species alive. They are trying to teach the world that everybody is the same and can live in the world together as one.
I am so very sad to see the Empath trilogy end. I want to know more about Stephen. What is his story? I know that Secrets is the last book but I am hoping that it is not. I think that Claire and James have a whole lot more to say. I also think that Troy, Heidi, Tonya and Henry all have their own stories to tell. And as I have read in other reviews being immortal means you live along time so therefore you have a lot of stories untold.
I think the Empath trilogy is the first books that I have read by H.K Savage but I don't think they will be the last. I know it won't if she decides to write more of Empath. I am definitiley going to check out more of her books. I highly recommend this trilogy to anyone who loves a good book. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I have. I know I have already said it somewhere but I am so sad to see the end of the Empath trilogy. Thanks H.K. for this amazing trilogy.

HK lives in the frozen hinterlands of the far North.  The long, cold months provide ample opportunity to hunker down with her computer and create adventures far more enticing than scraping ice and getting frostbite.

Between books HK reads voraciously.  Anything with a good plot and compelling characters are her broad parameters.  One is as likely to catch her with a copy of Don Quixote as with the latest Kristen Ashley.

When not writing or wowing the corporate world by day, HK practices martial arts, plays with her dogs and matches wits with her teen. Next winter she intends to brush up on her Spanish and escape the cold for somewhere more tropical.

Book Blitz: Meet Me In The Dark (A Dark Suspense) by J.A. Huss @jahuss @XpressoReads @XpressoTours #XpressoBookTours #Giveaway





Meet Me In The Dark (A Dark Suspense) by JA Huss
Publication Date: April 15, 2015
Contemporary Romantic Suspense

He’s empty, inhuman, dishonest, and cruel.
She’s never wanted anyone more.

Sydney has lived in fear for eight years after freelance assassin, Merc, failed to rescue her from a cult-like militia group. Left in the hands of a sadistic man, she did whatever it took to survive. But Merc’s last words gave her hope. Hope he’d be back to finish the job.

After Merc is betrayed by her father, Sydney becomes his target. He wields sex, drugs, lies, and love like weapons. Merc knows just what to do with a fearful girl like Sydney. He’s in control. He’s always in control.

But Sydney Channing is not what she appears. And Merc’s only redeeming act—the very one that made Sydney’s life a living hell—might just be his worst mistake yet.

WARNING: Meet Me In The Dark is a STANDALONE, non-traditional, DARK ,CAPTIVE ROMANTIC SUSPENSE. It is not intended for sensitive readers.

MEET ME IN THE DARK IS A STANDALONE, romantic suspense novel ON SALE NOW:

Excerpt:

I made the right choice that day. Sasha was the right choice. Sydney is just a leftover that needs to be swept under the rug.

But that job never ended. Not when I left her that day. Not when I helped Sasha get her revenge. Not when I stole hundreds of millions of dollars straight out of their deep fucking pockets.

It’s gonna end soon though. This is it. My end. Sydney’s end as well.

She stirs on the bed and I know she’s coming back again. This drifting she does, I have no clue what it means other than they did a good job on her. She’s given up nothing of real importance. Her release word is inconsequential in the long run. It’s a good first step. But is she even worth all the steps between here and victory?

I doubt it.

She turns over and places a hand on my leg. I’m sitting up in bed, smoking, as I let it all play out in my head. There were so many potential outcomes before she ran. But now there are only two.

I let her live. I let her die.

If I let her live and start working her for real, I get less than ideal intel. Less than reliable, I should say.

If I let her die as soon as that’s over, I can take what I want right now and sift through it objectively later.

Her hand slips down my leg and grabs my cock.

I react. I like sexy Sydney a little more than I’d like to admit. I grab her hands and flip her over on her stomach. She whimpers, but not in a bad way.

“I’ll take that hard fuck now, Syd."
