Why am I passionate about this?

I have loved the supernatural world since my dad took me to see The Lost Boys in the theater. There’s just something about the unbelievable that drags me into this genre. I enjoy the escapism aspect because real life is hard enough. Plus, what girl wouldn’t want to be taken to a castle and live happily ever after with her prince? I know I would.

The books I picked & why

Book cover of Eternally Bound

Krystyna Allyn Why I love this book

Talk about an edge-of-your-seat paranormal romance! The Alliance books are a spin-off from Brenda’s Vampire Awakenings series. While both deal with fated mates, the former delves deeper. You see the true evil and the lengths they’ll go to for dominance while also getting swept away by the romance. There's a ton of angst and jaw-dropping endings that will leave you reeling.

Book cover of Wildest Dreams

Krystyna Allyn Why I love this book

Kristen Ashley is known for her contemporary books with heroines that rock and commanding alphas. In this book, you have the same, but with a supernatural twist. Wildest Dreams gives you the raw emotion you’d expect from a KA book, while adding a fantastical story and some hilarity to boot.

Book cover of Dark Lover

Krystyna Allyn Why I love this book

JR Ward has this way with her storytelling. She combines clever dialogue with hilariously funny one-liners. Each character has their own tragic background, and you spend a good portion of the book wanting to hug them. Once you read Dark Lover, I guarantee you'll want to finish the entire series.

Book cover of Halfway to the Grave

Krystyna Allyn Why I love this book

Who knew vampires could be this funny? Forget the fact that the entire series will have you on the edge of your seat. The banter between the main characters, Kat and Bones kept me in tears. It gives off an enemies-ish to lovers vibe, but it so much more. I won’t even get into the number of sticky situations the heroine finds herself in. It’s such a fantastic story.

Book cover of The Segonian

Krystyna Allyn Why I love this book

Diane is known for her Immortal Guardians Vampire series, but this spin-off to her fang world includes two things I love, vampires and aliens. I’d be remiss when mentioning alien romance if I didn’t include Ruby Dixon. Both stories expertly combine humor, drama, a heck of spice, and the supernatural excitement that keeps me reading.
