Bouncer's Folly Joyfully Recommended!


“If you haven’t read Gracie McKeever’s Zara’s Bois series, you need to! The first book is Zack and the Dark Shaft. This recent installment, Bouncer’s Folly, is an incredible cap to the last two books. You can’t help but love Ramsey the minute he appears. And somehow even though Trevor has hurt many people along the way in his life, Zara’s personality weaves a couple of those relationships back together. And when the two of them clicked I had to read it to the end. I’m Joyfully Recommending Bouncer’s Folly as it has it all; mystery, action, suspense, love and most importantly hot men loving one another.” Joyfully Recommended by Rain for Joyfully Reviewed

4.5 Kisses for Rapture 1 from Two Lips Reviews!

“The Prosecutor’s Paramour is a superb prequel to Ms. Santiago’s The Wives’ Tales series. Readers will be sucked into a futuristic world where women are relegated to the role of second-class citizens. Evie proves herself a worthy adversary by keeping Zachary on his toes. Zachary’s many secrets are revealed to Evie in unexpected ways. I have a whole new appreciation for Ms. Santiago’s talent as she constantly kept this reader guessing, even though I knew the ultimate outcome!

Ms. McKeever is a new author to me and subsequently I’ve never read any of the previous installments of her Sisters of Emsharra series. I found this novella to be the hardest one to enjoy, struggling to juggle the back-story with the main and keeping the secondary characters straight in my mind. I found Michael’s conflict to be one that tore at my heart. I empathized with how he could feel anything positive, let alone love, for Xevera after his mother suffered so cruelly at the hands of one of her people. I admired Xevera’s spunk as she bravely faced all of Michael’s hatred.

Ms. Ashbury begins her new trilogy The Song of the Sirens with The Enchantress. Twyla and Nicholas are a great team, loving and working together. Twyla gives her complete trust to Nicholas, thinking he might be the perfect man for her. Nicholas reworks his initial perception about Twyla as he learns more about this amazing woman. I was intrigued with the sirens and wished more background had been incorporated into this story. Knowing Ms. Ashbury, the second and third installments of this promising series will give us this and more!

A Devil’s Bargain was an utter delight to read! Isabelle is everything Devon wishes he could have, but knows is beyond reach. Ms. Wildes turns up the sexual heat as Devon introduces the virginal Isabelle to all the delights of the flesh. Isabelle not only stirs Devon’s libido, but through her wonderful spirit, encourages him to care again. A Devil’s Bargain is one historical that I’ll repeatedly turn to to warm up a cold winter’s night!”

Gracie's Intro

I’m Gracie C. McKeever, an author from the Bronx and native New Yorker. Aside from several side trips along the way I’ve lived and worked my entire life in the Big Apple (most of it two train stops away from the House that Ruth built….Go Yanks!)

I’ve been writing since the ripe old age of seven when two younger brothers were among my earliest, captive audience for various short story readings and performances. I only started writing with a serious eye towards publication, however, in 1994 and sold my first mainstream short story to a genre print magazine out of Colorado.

I’ve been kicking around the internet and e-publishing since 1998 when I discovered and signed on with new alternative romance e-publisher that published my first New Age paranormal urban romance.

I’m an eclectic and avid reader and have had the great fortune of being able to incorporate two of my favorite passions and talents – reading and writing – as a book reviewer for several online e-zines in the past both as a regular staff member and a freelancer.

In 2001 I caught the erotic romance and erotica bug when I sank my teeth into my first erotic romance e-book for a solicited review and haven’t looked back since. An instant affinity for the genre was born and spawned my first erotic romance title a few years later. That title, Beneath The Surface: The Matchmaker 1 is currently available from Siren Publishing, Inc. and was the first in a long list of award-winning and top-selling Siren titles.

Thanks for the invite, Amanda! I'm glad to be here and very proud to be a Siren author!
