Along with a nosy guard sphinx,vegetarian werewolf, and otherparanormal paramedics, she bandages soldiers who are built like Greek gods (literally). But when one sexy immortal ends up...more

Once they ran all my underwear up the flagpole. But I want you to understand it's an honor to serve with these men." - Hot Lips from MASH
Who can forget the outrageous humor from MASH? Angie Fox injects that humor into an urban fantasy world with an over-the-top frontline medical team who would inspire Hawkeye to transfer to their unit.

I hope I don't sound biased, since I got the book from the author, and its come on my birthday, so I consider it as my gift, lol! Ehm, okay. I don't know about MASH show since I'm not Americans, but I like the different twist of paranormal romance that Angie Fox use for Immortally Yours. First POV is not my favorite and I often found Petra Robichaud, the heroine, too annoying and insecure. She's a doctor who just took from...more

Wicked great fun! I definitely found a new favorite author to add to my must read list. Angie’s humor is perfectly on par with Mary Janice Davidson’s Undead Series, so if you have enjoyed those then you will love this. I highly recommend buying Immortally yours, cause it is one you will want to reread again. I love love love her characters-especially Jeffe the guard sphinx-he totally cracks me up. This is a Must Read-five hearts all the way. Thanks Angie for a fantastic read!

The concept is strong. It should be an awesome book. Instead, it's chapter after chapter of Petra being weak, selfish, and shortsighted. And then the author tops it off with a whimper, not a bang. The climax was a total non-event that was stymied by the first person POV. I found myself in the middle of the climax before I realized that I was supposed to be excited and things were apparently wrapping up.

Quick & Dirty: Humor, action, and passion fill the pages of this medical war romance.
Opening Sentence: Attention all surgical personnel.

Angie Fox Immortally Yours
Angie Fox, author of the fan favorite Accidental Demon Slayer (Biker Witches) series, has come up with a fantastic new series that blends the paranormal with immortal gods and sets them in a war zone that recruits vampires, weres, demi-gods and humans with not so pure blood, to patch up the casualties of the war in a MASH unit.

Quirky and offbeat Immortally Yours was a fun read (and I needed that right now). The cast of characters is dysfunctional at best and there is wackiness going on all through the book; sometimes silly but then I was expecting that so it didn’t lessen my reading enjoyment. OK, I know you are thinking it, and yes Immortally Yours has some shades of the classic M*A*S*H television sitcom, but the paranormal element/mythological element of it changed it “just” enough that I wasn’t always comparing it...more
I won a copy of this book from the author on the Something Wicked blog, and I really enjoyed it! I think the premise of a paranormal MASH unit is really clever, and it really worked well as a setting. The secondary characters were especially appealing, and you get a sense of the camaraderie between them.
Some other reviewers have mentioned that they didn't find this book to be as humorous as some of Ms. Fox's other books, and I would agree that it's not quite as slapstick as the others. The humo...more

Original Post Immortally Yours: Kind of Like M.A.S.H. in Another Dimension and Without Hawkeye
About a month ago I did a buzz thrill for IMMORTALLY YOURS by Angie Fox.
I really enjoyed the book. There are a multitude of reasons. The first, and it's nostalgia rooted, is that it reminded me of a supernatural M.A.S.H. -- a TV series I grew up watching. I always thought it was strange that none of those guys on M.A.S.H. got leaves home. That seems more a function of TV ratings. Here it's just the ru...more

When I decided to read Immortally Yours it was because i was interested in how the author will create the an entertaining and fun book in a M*A*SH setting. Well the book starts off with " Attention all surgical personal. Attention. Incoming wounded arriving on chopper pad two. Get yours while they're fresh." With that I just knew this was going to be a rocking book. Rocking it was not, but it was an okay read. Once I started to get past the first few chapters it didn't just didn't go as I expect...more
The war between the immortals is raging out of control, in the balance hangs the lives of all the mortals on earth most of them never knowing what’s happening on the front lines in Limbo. One ray of hope is the prophecy that’s predicted to turn the tide. A healer is predicted to sound the charge and change the outcome. Dr. Petra Robichaud meets those predictions but she’s been burned before and is not in a believing frame of mind anymore until a certain Demi-God turns up on her operating table a...more
When Dr. Petra Robichaud is drafted into the army of the gods, she knows it is a life sentence. The gods have been fighting this war for centuries. She is working in a MASH unit near the front and trying to keep it a secret that she can see souls. There is a prophecy that one who can see souls will be able to end the war. Neither side wants that to happen and is willing to kill anyone who has that gift.

This is a first book from this author that I read and from this alone, I think the author did a good job.
I love the world our resident Doctor is in and even more the characters that sorrounds her. The world, though containing some familiar characters, has it's own unique twist to made this book quite an interesting read. I will definitely read the next book on this series.

Dr. Petra Robichaud was drafted into the war between the old and new gods, and is now stationed in the MASH 3063rd in limbo. Galen of Delphi, a demi-god and commander of an elite special forces team, ends up dying on her OR table. But she doesn't give up on him. She has the ability to see dead people, and she grabs onto his soul and jams it back into his body. The problem is that her ability to see dead people is illegal, and now Galen knows about it. He keeps her secret, because he believes tha...more
This is an action-packed, fun paranormal romance. If youliked Angie Fox’s Demon Slayer series, then you are going to be pleased withthis one too. Immortally Yours is the first book in Fox’s M*A*S*H series, andlike most series debuts it has some growing pains. The first third of the bookis spent trying a little too hard to be funny, but after that the humor becomesmore realistic. The world-building isn't overwhelming and I really liked theclever and fresh premise for the series. Once the story st...more
First off -- the story is written in 1st person from Petra's perspective. Normally I try to avoid 1st person because it seldom works for me. I didn't mind it in this story, although I would have liked a few scenes from Galen's perspective. The setting was different, being a MASH type environment for paranormal figures. The doctors have been involuntarily conscripted and have little hope of ever going back to their families. I liked the interactions between the characters. Galen is focused throug...more

This was unlike anything I have read before and I enjoyed it immensely.

Immortally Yours by Angie Fox is the first novel in her Monster MASH Series and I enjoyed reading it. I have to be honest that I haven’t read any of the other books by this author and didn’t quite know what to expect. But I have to say that this book pulled me in from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down for long, I just loved the book.

Heated sparks occur with every touch as Petra and Galen work together at M*A*S*H* 8071st to solve how her ability to communicate with ghosts might save Earth.

One of the weirdest and funniest paranormal books I have ever read. So far outside the realm of normal paranormal: I mix of present work with Greek mythology find two worlds colliding in limbo, where the balance of earth is held on precipice of war between the old and new gods, giggle! So weird, but I love the funky atmosphere and so unusual Characters.

"How about a real case next time, Horace?"..."Just give me something interesting." Or at least the chance to save somebody. We'd lost three patients today. Maybe they'd have died on my table, too, but I owed it to these soldiers--and myself--to try to make a difference.

Immortally Yours, the first book in author Angie Fox’s new paranormal romance series Monster M*A*S*H, is sexy, funny and thoroughly entertaining. I had a blast reading this one. It’s a take on the hit TV series from the 70’s and 80’s, for those of you who are old enough to remember it. Angie’s version is full of a diverse bunch of colorful characters including witches, weres, vamps, demigods, demons, and monsters. I got a kick out of matching up her characters to their TV series counterparts. I...more
This was really, just, appallingly awful. I wanted to like it because I met the author and she seemed like a nice person, but it's really, just, terrible.
The setting is a M.A.S.H. unit that has been drafted into the war between the gods. An interesting concept, except plot points were lifted wholesale from the series M.A.S.H. and the main plot was scrunched in to fit. So basically, read this book if you are a fan of M.A.S.H. but a bit hazy on specific episodes, and also you enjoy reading about...more

So happy that Angie Fox has a new book and series out. There is just something about her books, the wit, the humor blended into fun characters and plot that really absorbs one.
Really liking the concept of this book! Even in a foul mood I have been smirking, cracking a smile, even laughing at some of the things inside this book! Eager to know what happens next.
So far have not learned too much on Galen. Just that he got wounded and Petra was the one that operated on him. But he's an onery sob!...more
Listen, peeps, I'm sure lots of people will like this book so much more than me. Unfortunately it was just not for me.
I got hooked by the first chapter because it was funny and unusual, but as I continued reading the book humour dwindled to almost nothing and angst rose way too much to be comfortable with the main hero and heroine.
I actually had no problem with Galen, he was consistent. It's Petra who was flopping around like fish out of water. She will, then she won't, then she will, then she...more

This. Is. Great!
I loved MASH when I was a kid. The wise-cracking doctors and their crazy antics, interspersed with harsh realities of war and surgery always left me feeling happy. Now add to that some great romance and scorching sex, a ticking clock and a reluctant prophecy-fulfiller, and you have Angie Fox's latest- Immortally Yours.
