Book One in the Mythrian Realm Series
Throughout history, myths and legends of extraordinary creatures have been told and retold. Fantastic tales of demons and banshees, gryphons and dragons, and of course, magic. Stories that every child grows to learn are nothing more than fantasy…or are they? Beyond the world you see lies a hidden realm, the Mythrian Realm, inhabited by all of the creatures you’ve been told are mere fiction. Only one thing lies between humans and the truth: the Nexus. A magical barrier erected millennia ago to separate the two realms, it has stood the test of time. Until now. For Mythrian Sha Phoenix, magic is nothing new. But when she stumbles upon a portal on the verge of collapse, her fate will forever change. Pulled through the portal into the Human Realm, she lands in the middle of Detective Connor Flynn’s brutal murder scene. Soon it is obvious someone is using blood magic to try to bring down the Nexus. Together, Connor and Sha must work to unravel the secrets before the barrier falls and the realms collide. The Nexus is breaking and all hell is about to unleash…literally.

OUR REVIEW
4.5 Stars

Sha is a sentenal, a guardian and protector, in her realm. She has always been interested in the human realm, but suddenly finding herself there was never part of her plan. When she is thrust accross the barrier between realms she must figure out how it happened while trying to prove to the humans that she's not insane. Included among them is sexy detective Conner Flynn, it's so not the time to be interested in someone but she just can't seem to resist him.

Conner knew from the moment her saw her, he knew Sha was special. He might not have belived her about magic at first, but levitating a table will convince anyone pretty quick. Now he has to hope that with her help he can find the person behind the ritualistic murders the last few weeks, and figure out a way to stop them before they do something completly crazy, like break the barrier between the two realms.

Sha is one tough chick. She might be small in stature but she is fierce. She thinks first about protecting others before herself and she's a bit implusive, but she's smart and doesn't do things that aren't smart... in the long run.

Conner is an alpha male with good instincts. He might not be able to explain it but he trusts his gut to keep him on the right path. So when a beautiful woman turned up at a crime scene no matter who wrong it would be career wise he knew to trust that there was something special about her.

This story takes you into a new world where fairy tales are real just not in our realm. I loved seeing how these two worlds came together and am excited to see more of what's to come!

Synopsis:
Book 1.5 of the Mythrian Realm. Can be read as a standalone, but best enjoyed if book one, Breaking the Nexus, is read first.

Only one man sees the truth: an unknown enemy is targeting the elite group of warriors and no one is safe. As a panther Chimerae, Achaius Rilke recognizes the signs of an unpredictable predator.

Warrior Unleashed

4 Stars

Short quick read about Saia and Achaius and how they came to be together. This one bridges the gap between books a bit allowing you to see more of the characters you'll see in book 2.

The fight hard and fall for each other even harder. I enjoyed this novella.

As two Realms collide, the world descends into chaos.
From the moment Sha Phoenix dropped into the middle of Detective Connor Flynn’s murder scene, he had known his life would never be the same.

Unfortunately, despite their efforts to stop the Nexus, a magical barrier separating the Mythrian and Human Realms, fractured. Magic and myth are spilling over into the Human Realm, plunging everything into turmoil. Is their love strong enough to survive the flames of the phoenix? When Sha vanished through a portal in the middle of battle, Connor did not hesitate to follow the woman he had claimed as his. Now in the Mythrian Realm, they join forces with the Sentinels, the guardians of the Realms, to protect the world they love. Will they be able to contain the evil taking control? Or will they perish in the flames of war? This is a continuation of Connor and Sha's story. Book 1, Breaking the Nexus, should be read first.

Waking the Phoenix

4 Stars

Conner knewhe couldn't live without Sha, so when the portal took her back to her home he has no problem jump right in after her. From there he finds himself thrust into a new world with trouble rising and every time he thinks he has got a handle of things something else happens.

Sha is finally home, but things go from bad to worse fast. The story continues this time in the Mythrian realm and we are along for the journey as they go against time to try and save everyone from a force more evil force than they ever imagined.

Every twist and turn is exciting and leaves you wondering what will happen next. It was interesting to see Sha in her own enviroment. I had fun seeing Conner trying to understand where he dropped in with Alpha males protecting Sha and him trying to prove himself. Great addition to this series.

About the Author

Lindsay Avalon1 Lindsay Avalon is a wife, owner of a devious mini Schnauzer, programmer, and now an author. An avid reader, her amazing husband never seems to mind the multitude of books scattered around the house. However, after listening to the words “I have nothing to read” one too many times, he suggested Lindsay try her hand at writing her own books.
Since she’d never liked writing in school, she balked at the idea until her sister pestered her to participate in NaNoWriMo. It was then Lindsay realized that it was never writing she hated; it was writing boring essays. Creating worlds of magic, mystery, adventure, and romance became her true calling. In 2012, she embarked on the journey to become a self-published author and to bring her crazy ideas to life.
In 2013, Lindsay decided to ask a fellow author about her publishing company, Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly. It was a spur of the moment, impulsive decision, and one which Lindsay is eternally grateful she made. Though self-publishing was exhilarating, being a part of her amazing publishing family gives her a bit of structure in her chaotic existence.
When she’s not writing or spending time with her husband, she’s hiding out from devious bears seeking to thwart her writing efforts, pestering her amazing friends and personal assistant, creating works of art in resin, and a multitude of other things that capture her attention at the moment. You can find Lindsay online spreading insanity across Facebook and interacting with her many lovelies. She loves hearing from her readers and fellow writers!
