Seven Sons by Lili St. Germain 5 out of 5 Synopsis *Please note this book is dark romance and deals with serious themes including rape, violence and murder.* This story unfolds over seven volumes approx. 25 - 30,000 words each. My father was most certainly NOT an innocent man. As the leader of the Gypsy Brothers MC, he was guilty of many things. But he died for a crime that he didn’t commit, framed by an enemy within who then stole his club and everything he had ever worked to protect. Including my innocence. When Dornan Ross framed my father, he set into motion a series of events that could never be undone. My father was murdered by Dornan Ross and his sons when I was fifteen years old. Before my father died, Dornan and his sons stole my innocence, branded my skin and in doing so, ensured that their lives would be prematurely cut short. That they would suffer. I’ve just turned twenty-one, and I’m out for blood. I'm out for revenge. But I didn't expect to fal...

C.L. Schneider - Spoiler Interview

Image
Welcome to the new Spoilers series. What does it involve?  How is this different to normal interviews? Well, quite simply, most interviews hinge on the writer; and the author is often constrained by not wanting to give away any of those key secrets in their book. ~ Click here for The Northern Witch's regular interviews ~ But here we intend to break those little rules, and dig into everything we want to know about the story. My first victim- I mean, lovely author-type person - is the one and only C.L. Schneider: writer of the Crown of Stones series. So if you don't want Magic Price (Crown of Stones #1) ruined - you have been warned. Why don't you go pick up the book: Amazon.co.uk Goodreads link Or check out my (relatively) spoiler-free review: clickee here
