book given to me for review
What if everything you knew turned out to be a lie? You find out that you aren’t even human—at least not entirely. What if, one day, you realize your world will never be the same again? These are the questions that Samantha Logan must face in The Amoveo Legacy. A dream on her thirtieth birthday compels her to leave her artists loft in New York City and move back to the beach with her Grandmother, Nonie. However, the instant Samantha steps foot on the salty shores of her childhood home, she realizes the landscape has changed.
The moment she encounters the mysterious, arrogant neighbor Malcolm Drew, her life is never the same. Through a seductive courtship, he introduces her to the magical mystical world of the Amoveo. The dream walking, telepathic, shape shifters that he claims are her true heritage. However, Malcolm holds back a secret that could destroy them both. Will he be able to protect Samantha and convince her of the secret legacy buried deep inside of her?
My Thoughts:
I was surprised on how much I enjoyed the first book in The Amoveo Legacy. I’ve been a little burnt out on shifter romances, there is only so much growling and Alpha ‘tude I can take in my reading diet.
Samantha is a hybrid, part human and part wolf, only she doesn’t know anything about this. Malcolm, part of the Eagle clan, has been searching for his mate Samantha for as long as he can remember. Hunted by the Cadeo, can Malcolm bond with Sam in time and save her from being hunted by the creepy assassin Tony….
Amoveo Legacy was a much meatier read than I was expecting. Not only do we get introduced to a new world with multiple shifter clans and crazy fundamentalists; but a nice love story to boot (woo hoo). Great supporting characters like Grandma Nonnie, BFF Kerry and creepy POV from mysterious, but psycho Tony, (from the Cadeo) provided a suspenseful and quirky cast.
If you are in the mood for light and quick read paranormal romance, The Amoveo Legaacy was a nice change of pace from the norm.
Sara Taney Humphreys Military Families Contest
2nd Annual U.S. Military Family Contest–Entries Welcome!
Last year, as a special thank you to our service members and their families, I held a very special contest for Military Wives. It turned out to be an incredibly rewarding experience. I had the privilege of meeting several incredible women and their beautiful families. It’s so easy to forget that there are real people who are deeply affected by the conflict overseas. Hearing the personal stories of these families helped me remember that our troops are husbands, fathers, brothers and sons who are immensely loved and sorely missed.
I have decided to make this an annual contest. I am very excited to report that ASMBA-STAR, an outstanding organization for Vets and their families, has agreed to continue their partnership with me.
This contest will run from Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day Weekend. Once again, a portion of my annual book sales will be donated to ASMBA-STAR.
Who is eligible? This year I’ve opened the contest up to ALL U.S. Military Families. Moms, Dads, Sons, Daughters, Wives, Husbands, Sisters, Brothers. If you have a family member that is serving our country…tell us about them!

Once a week, beginning Memorial Day weekend, I will pick one entrant to be highlighted on my blog. These weekly entrants are semi-finalists. Labor Day weekend I will select three winners.
