The world building is a little thin, but for a first book it's not that unusual. I'm curious to see how the trauma-bond romance works out.

A great character-driven high fantasy with court intrigue and a slow-burn romance.

Dundrifter by Elisabeth Wheatley picks up where Ensaadi, Book I of the Warlords of the Sandsea series left off, and I couldn’t wait to start.

Forbidden love.

Duty.

Loyalty.

Will Talitha sacrifice herself for her people? Her city?

Her best friend is taken and there is only one person who can help her. The big question is, will he…and can they resist their forbidden love? The heart wants what the heart wants and I want them to be together.

Betrayal. Elisabeth Wheatley caught me offguard with the ultimate betrayal heaped on Talitha, leaving her feeling lost, bereft and alone.

Oh man. I love a book that gets my emotions roiling.

Plenty of pulse pounding action and sexual tension in this sword and sorcery romance.

Wicked good ending leaving me frustrated waiting to get my hands on Book III, Batttleslave.

I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Dunedrifter by Elisabeth Wheatley.

Elisabeth Wheatley never ceases to amaze me with her creative storytelling. I loved her Fanged series, and am eager to see what Ensaadi has to offer. A dash of Dunes, a pinch of Stars Wars…Voila, we have the Warlords of Sandsea romance adventure series.

Esreth is, well, a bit promiscuous. This time she has crossed a line and Talitha has to find a solution to the problem. Whoa…

Right or wrong, the decision is made and the action begins.

Talitha is ensaadi, their leader, and now she will show them why she deserves the title. She is strong, smart and knows to keep her eyes on her enemies, even when they are standing right beside her.

I was wondering what would happen next, but this wasn’t what I saw coming.

The chase, the fight, brutal and wicked. Love and war. The critters and world building. The more I read, the more I like.

The Dunedrifters…I knew, well, I thought, well, I…

Romance is in the air and ya can’t stop the heart from wanting who it wants.

An uneasy alliance, a warrior born to rule.

I love this suspenseful novella that has characters to die for and a world that stretches the imagination. I can hardly wait to get my hands on the next story, Dunedrifter.

I have been reading this fangtastic series from the beginning, so to read Human by Elisabeth Wheatley and learn Fletchers’s story is a real treat. It is not a happy story, in fact, it’s down right heartbreaking.

Fletcher met Haddasah by happenstance and she has become a reluctant friend. As their friendship grows into something more, they try to deny their love for each other. Hadassah explains why it can never be. A Romeo and Juliet affair? More like Isabella and Edward.

The dialogue between them is snarky and fun.

Oh man, now I really understand why they are on the run and Haddie…

The ending was brutal, savage, fanglorious and I was surprised and agree with Elisabeth that Fletcher’s story needed to be told. It explains Haddie’s actions and the ending made me bump Human’s rating to a four.

OMG. I was completely engrossed in this fantastic fantasy of love, sacrifice, revenge and suspense!

The cast of characters comes alive on the pages and Elisabeth creates some surprising alliances as they struggle to survive. At one point I am leaning forward in my chair as I breathlessly read the words flowing off the page.

Haddie is an enforcer, A Kaiju, a vampire. She had never killed anyone to feed and because of her own experience never would.

Damian, her brother is in love with a human, Madelyn.Haddie knew her father would not let the relationship continue. After all, he had ended the relationship she had with the human, Fletcher.

The trio are on the run from Haddie’s father and she will do whatever needs to be done to let them have a life together, the life she was deprived of. But they can’t do it alone. Who would help them?

Yeah, this might have been shades of Twilight, but it is so much more than that and I really enjoyed Twilight.

My feelings about Madelyn grow and change as the story unfolds and her love and loyalty shine through.

Chase – Hmmm. What can I say, except I can hardly wait to get to know him better.

I think short stories must be some of the hardest stories to write. How do you pack so much into such a small package and keep the reader at your mercy.? Elisabeth did that splendidly and I can’t wait to read more of Haddie’s story in the Fanged Outcast.

The three humans survey me with apprehension. A fanged princess in their midst.

I received Fanged Princess from the author in return for an honest review.

The Key of Amatahn by Elisabeth Wheatley is her debut novel, and part of a trilogy. I have read her Fanged novellas and they blew me away, so I asked her for a copy of The Key of Amatahns. I am excited to embark on another adventure with this amazingly talented young author.

Janir and her mother were sent away from Adasha, but they never made it to their destination. Janir was saved by an elf and Amandius took her in. She is now a member of the Caersynn household, even though she is the daughter of the ruler of Argetallam.

The Argetallam are the Invincible. They feared and detested by all, because of their ruthlessness and powerful magic.

Lucan, Janir’s brother hated her. She is older, therefore would inherit the role of leader. He is mean, jealous, arrogant and self serving. I don’t think he would make a very good ruler. Lucan would do anything to find the Key and the Temple.

An unfortunate incident and she is on the run again, this time into the forest on her own. She meets up with Karile who appears to be a bumbling enchanter.

Saoven, an elf, is sent by Amandius to protect her and the three of them bond together to hunt for The Key To Amatahn.

The Key could lead to the world’s end if it were to fall into the wrong hands.

Once they have the Key, the pace picks up as they are chased through the woods, dodging evil and magic at every turn.

We have elves, wargs, mazag, dragons, enchanters… A cornucopia of magical creatures. And, of course, some mortals.

It took me a while to get into the swing of this fantasy adventure. As I figured out the different characters and the fantasy world Elisabeth Wheatley built. The characters became friends of mine and I cheered them on in their race to find the Key and the Temple it will unlock. I enjoyed the journey and would recommend The Key of Amatahn by Elisabeth Wheatley to all you fantasy lovers out there.

Janir, and Karile’s journey was a long, ugly, torturous one and it will not end here. The Key of Amatahn by Elisabeth Wheatley does not end with a cliffhanger, but leaves the story open for more fantasy adventure.

I received a copy of The Key of Amatahn by Elisbeth Wheatley in return for an honest and unbiased review.
