Release Date: 2/2015
Purchase Info: Amazon 
For millennia, the lalassu have existed at the fringes of society, hiding in the shadows. But someone is determined to drag them into the light.

Dani has spent years fighting against her family’s urges to take on the mantle of High Priestess for the lalassu. Stronger and faster than any ordinary human, she has no interest in being a guide for her people. She likes being independent and enjoys her night-job as a burlesque dancer. But a darker secret lurks inside of her, one which threatens everyone around her.

Isolated and idealistic, Michael works as a developmental therapist for children, using his psychometric gifts to discover the secrets they can’t share with anyone else. When one of his clients is kidnapped, he will do almost anything to rescue her. The investigation leads him to a seedy little performance club where he is shocked and thrilled to discover a genuine live superhero.

Michael and Dani must join forces to save those they care about from becoming the latest victims of a decades-long hunt. But the fiery chemistry between them threatens to unlock a millennia-old secret which could devour them both.

The clock is ticking and they will be faced with the ultimate hero’s choice: save the world or save each other?


Absolutely Magical!

Revelations was a true breath of fresh air! From page one I was completely enthralled with Dani, her brothers, and their unique abilities. They aren't your usual paranormal creatures, but each has something different about them that allows them to have that something special. Even Dani's little sister has talents of her own....which are slightly creppy, I can't lie.

After her brothers go missing Dani is on a war path to get them back. Though she doesn't initally know who has taken them, she crosses paths with Michael, who is delicious! He's a sensative person, and not just by choice, he literally taste-touch-feel the emotions of people around him. (Not the kind of man you want to lie to) So when he's off investigating a mysterious corporate for a friend he realizes that Dani may be more an asset rather than an enemy.

One thing that I loved was the chemistry these two shared, because it wasn't just white hot, it was delicate at the same time. Both of them fighting an urge they needed to contain in order to keep their sanity...it was beautiful! Together they are able to find that balance that makes you go WOW, and not only as a steamy couple, but as a kickass team who are on a mission to find answers!

After reading Revelations, I haven't been this excited to pick up the next book in a series in a very long time. Jennifer has a true talent & knack for reeling people in. So proceed with caution if you plan on picking this book it, you'll be hooked!


5/5

About the Author:


I am a full time writer, full time admin person and a full time mother (which is at least two more times than I actually have but somehow I'm making it work while still finding time to watch TV and read).

I've always loved stories: watching them, reading them, or telling them. I've recently self-published my first novel and I'm very excited to see about making my dreams come true.

I like alternate realities, urban fantasy, paranormal romance, superpowers, alternative history and secret societies. That's what inspires my work.
