Maybe it's because this series has been so sad and terrible at times, the treatment of the cryptids so horrific, Continue Reading

Cross Breed by Lora Leigh Breeds #23 Paranormal Romance September 25, 2018 Berkley Reviewed by Helyce Note: Might be a little bit rambly... I remember when I found the Breeds. I came upon a book at my local used bookstore. I don’t remember which one it was, but it fueled my love of science fiction with its very imaginative theme of altering genetics and creating a completely different species by splicing animal and human DNA. Not a human who could shift into an animal--something Continue Reading
