Annabel Lee:
The Story of a Woman, Written By Herself
by Christopher Conlon
Genre: Historical Gothic
Everybody knows Edgar Allan Poe’s “Annabel Lee”—but who was she really?
In this haunting and evocative novel, Christopher Conlon (“one of
the preeminent names in contemporary literary horror”—Booklist)
imagines a life for one of literature’s most renowned characters.
Hers is a chronicle even more thrilling, doom-haunted, and tragic
than Poe himself could have conceived, for here Annabel Lee tells her
own story in her own words…for the first time.

★·.·´¯`·.·★ B̳o̳o̳k̳ ̳R̳e̳v̳i̳e̳w̳ ★·.·´¯`·.·★ Lethal (The Disciples Book 1) by Cassandra Robbins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Eve is a gypsy living in a run down trailer with her ailing father and dead beat brother. She does whatever she has to do to survive and keep her father as healthy as possible even if that means stealing whatever she can get her hands on. She is used to growing up without much but what she can carry in her big bags. So when her bother gets in a bad way with the Disciples MC club and he is gone with out a trace she tries to do whatever she can to make sure her family is safe.
Blade is the president of the Disciples MC club and he doesn’t take well to people owing him and not making good on an agreement so when he and his crew go to the rundown carnival to find Benny and they find his sister and father instead there is only one thing that he can do to get what he is due. He takes Eve. Only thing is instead of marking her to show that she is for the club he marks her to show that she is his. For the first time he takes a queen.
Eve and Blade go through a constant back and forth of hating each other than loving each other. It is hard for both because they are both so used to just living to be ahead of the game, to make sure that they survive. They don’t even know what to do with the feelings of love.
This book was so well written and I got a real MC feel from this. I honestly really wanted to know what happen to Doc to turn him to use his own supply. Now the only real issue that I had from this was that there was so much back and forth between them I couldn’t tell sometimes what was real and what wasn’t. Did she really think that she couldn’t get P? Did she do it to trap him? Was he really going to sell her? There were times when I felt like she was really in love with him then times when I felt like she was running an ulterior motive. What happen to her stash behind the picture? I have so many questions. I for sure would love to read the next book though.

Archer-
I am the master marksman at the Wings of Diablo MC Club. Any target my brothers need me to take down, I will. I am a magician with a fire arm no matter the class, from the small and simple Glock 36 to the powerful .44 Magnum, the big bad shotgun to the sleek and sexy M2010. I have been known to be stoic and calculated. To lay above the rest and smile as each bullet sailed through my target. Once you were in my sights, you go down for the long nap. I used to believe that my fate was sealed by the bullet and my gun, come to find out my life would be turned on its head by Daria. A woman in the wrong place at the wrong time. A woman who is seared into my soul.
Daria-
My whole life I stayed to myself, never wanted to get anyone upset or be a burden to those around me. So when my roommates strong arm me into going to a party at the Rolling Cobras MC Club house I try to stay as far away from the action as possible. Not that it did me any good, my favorite shirt was ruined, I got hit on by a man missing his two front teeth, oh and I got shot in the chest. Talk about a party. There was one good thing that came from that horrible experience, the hospital set up a trauma counselor, Archer. There is something about his haunted eyes that makes me believe that I can trust again. No one makes my pulse race like he does, makes my body surrender like he does. Even with secrets all around him I have no choice but to submit to him.
If you love this bad boy make sure you pay Wire a visit too!

Wire-
I am the pain manager at the Wings of Diablo MC Club. What’s that mean? It means that if my brothers need information they call on me to get it out of you. You should see the art I can create with a blow torch or a serrated blade or my favorite, barbed wire. I have been known to have a cold fearless heart. To stand in the middle of a gun fight without a care in the world, tear flesh from bodies and not even blink when my mark would scream and cry. Nothing reached me, I was numb to the world. Chaos was my meditation. That was until I met Keeley. Now one small piece of false information, one wrong victim and one war later she is completely under my skin.
Keeley-
He just showed up in my backyard pointing a gun in my face and bleeding profusely. If I would have known at that precise moment my world would turn on its head I would have never let him in. I left my home to get away from the violence and the wars yet here I am back in a world I don’t want to be in. I would run but no one excites me like Dillon does, no one protects me like Dillon does, and no one makes me scream in pleasure like him either. As hard as his life is and even with my own life in danger there is no where I would rather be than in his arms, I am his.
