If you missed it, here's last week's newsletter.

 

 

IMPORTANT CHANGES!

Yikes! I used the scary C word. I have a friend who physically cringes every time CHANGE is mentioned. I hope we don't have anyone like that in the group. lol. Nevertheless, you can rest easy. These are good changes.

You might have noticed that we don't have a giveaway or promotion this week. This is because of the sheer volume of requests we get on a daily bases. Our one man operation can no longer be manned by a single person. Because of this, we have hired on some help. While the ropes are being learned and gears are tweaked, we will be temporarily down. Don't worry, it will only be for this single week. We will be up and running again for the next round. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we go through some growing pains and balance out.

That said, we are still looking for fun, book enthusiast who want to help share their love of reading. If you're interested in joining the team, email us at:
TheBlackUnicornCo@gmail.com
______
 

What we're looking for:

Reviewers

We have literally over a hundred authors seeking honest reviews. Our Masterlist is incredible. Books of all genres just waiting to be loved. But also, if you have recently read a book you really loved and want your review (and the book) shared, we would love to do that as well.
 

Messengers

Help us by becoming a messenger of words. Help us share the giveaways, the authors, and the books. Each person will get a package of premade kits to share throughout the week.
 

Assistant 

Unfortunately, there is only room for one of these at this time. This person would have to be familiar with the ins and outs of the book world. Should be able to speak fluent book-talk. Have a reasonably good nose for business and function independently.
 

Designer

We are already working with Airicka's Mystical Creations on all graphic needs, but occasionally, we might need a backup to pick up the slack.

If you are or if you know someone you think would be perfect for the jobs mentioned above, let them know. Have them (or you) email us TheBlackUnicornCo@gmail.com


Thank for your understanding and we cannot wait to keep sharing the love with you! 

 

 But we're back now and excited to get these wheels turning once more. So, without further ado...

#REVIEW — Hawthorne & Heathcliff

BLACK UNICORN REVIEW

___________

REVIEW — Hawthorne & Heathcliff

___________

R.K. Ryals has always been one of my favorite people. She's sweet and such a talented author. But it was the tagline for this book that caught my attention.

I'm ashamed to admit that I'd never read anything by this incredible author in the past, but OMG, this story made me want to track her down, tin of cookies in tow, prepared to beg her for more.  Everything about this  story had my emotions on
hyperdrive, which probably sounds strange considering it's a contemporary. Not a single action scene in sight. But you will want to keep a box of Kleenex in hand because this book will emotionally slaughter you.

This is a book about about a girl named Hawthorne who has lost her family and no, I don't mean she misplaced them or that they died in some tragic accident. No, no. They will make you want to track them down and boot kick them in the throat. She's raised by her uncle who is hands down my favorite fictional character ... EVER, which is why I stopped mid read to message the author and yell at her for what she does to him <evil death glare>.

Moving on.

Our hero is Heathcliff. A strange, quiet boy who takes an immediate liking to our shy, quiet heroine. Unlike Hawthorne, Heathcliff has a family, but they're the type of family who has already mapped out his entire future for him. Of course they mean well, but still.

Now the story takes us on a ten year journey through our character's lives. We get to see them grow from innocent children trying to find their way to independent and confident adults. It's a beautiful and heartbreaking tale.

The thing I loved most was how deeply I felt for these two. I felt Hawthorne's pain and her loneliness, and Heathcliff's need to find himself. It was all there. What I didn't like, the only reason this book did not get a solid five stars, was (SPOILER!) when Healthcliff went in search of himself and winds up with another woman. Meanwhile, Hawthorne stayed in their small town and waited for him, then accepted Healthcliff back like nothing happened when he leaves her multiple times and returns with another woman in tow. I understand completely that it happens in real life. Two people separate and find more than one love in their life, but I just didn't like that Clare (Hawthorne) let him back each time without question.

Otherwise than that, absolutely loved everything else about this book. It's a book hangover you do no want to miss.



Overall: 4.5 Unicorns

     
 




 

R.K. Ryals is the author of emotional and gripping young adult and new adult paranormal romance, contemporary romance, and fantasy. With a strong passion for charity and literacy, she works as a full time writer encouraging people to "share the love of reading one book at a time." An avid animal lover and self-proclaimed coffee-holic, R.K. Ryals was born in Jackson, Mississippi and makes her home in the Southern U.S. with her husband, her three daughters, a rescue dog named Oscar the Grouch, A Shitzsu named Tinkerbell, an OCD cat, and a coffee pot she honestly couldn't live without. Should she ever become the owner of a fire-breathing dragon (tame of course), her life would be complete.

Can there be too many pieces to piece back together?

This is a question Keira faces every day. It’s impossible for her to go anywhere unaccompanied by her cousin, the only person who knows what happened on that horrific night a year ago. The guilt and pain weigh her down every day. Unwilling to open up to anyone and give someone a chance, she lives in solitude.

For her, that’s the only way to live.

Liam struggles with his own demons. After losing someone who means the world to him, he combats his anger and pain on a daily basis. He dives into violence and sex, losing himself more and more. But as soon as he meets Keira, he recognizes the same pain he suffers every day. And he pursues her, wanting to connect to someone who understands.

Keira can’t put herself back together, and neither can Liam. But can they do it together?

UNBREAKABLE by Abby Reynolds

 Abby Bartlett is the quintessential nice girl. Between teaching, volunteering, completing her PhD, and helping her best friend raise his daughter, Abby never gets the chance to be anything but nice. That is, until the all-wrong-for-her man she's only ever known from afar starts daring her to simply take that chance for herself. His sage advice? Try something wild and fast.

Preferably him.

An unbridled, hotshot attorney with a not-so-little black book, Connor Sullivan has earned himself quite the bad boy reputation. But in his defense, he's a very conscientious one. He knows far too well that sometimes in life, love isn't enough...or worse, not even a factor at all. To avoid that misery--and repel the drama--Connor always makes his one and only rule crystal clear right from the start. Absolutely nothing more than a month.

Turns out, a whole lot can happen in one month.

Jason Bradley is a charming country guy. He lives a simple life that’s nothing like what Cassandra is used to. A single moment in life changed everything he thought he once knew, leaving him with a broken heart and an unplanned future.

What happens in Keaton is nothing Cassandra or her heart could have ever prepared for. The instant connection she shares with Jason is no secret, but what they're keeping hidden from one another is. Will these two be able to find a way to trust each other or will their secrets tear them apart?

I didn’t believe in love at first sight, until I first saw Lucas Kade.

I was giving swimming lessons to children when I first saw him. Turns out one of the kids was Lucas’s little brother. So, I’d be seeing a lot more of Lucas. And that was just fine with me.

I had a lot going on—a freshman at an elite college, first time away from home, and, oh yeah, roommates with a girl I’d been sent to spy on. I wasn’t exactly looking for anything exclusive. Something casual, though, would be great.

But there was nothing casual about my feelings for Lucas.

He was a townie, hiding a secret, and I knew better than to get involved. I was always the sensible one, the peacekeeper.

Before I knew it…I was In Too Deep.

______________________________


When a knee injury ends twenty-year-old Quinn Rowland’s pro tennis career, he’s not only dumped by his hot Russian girlfriend but ordered to attend college by his disinterested billionaire father. A rich kid who’s not used to being disappointed by life, Quinn and his sociopathic half-brother Sebastian create a frat house game intended to treat girls how they see them—as simple game pieces to be manipulated for their pleasure.

College sophomore Emilie Swanson knows Quinn’s reputation—after all, he did send one of her sorority sisters into therapy earlier in the semester—but the game and his charm bring them closer together and soon she starts to believe there’s more to Quinn than people think.

But what if the more is something darker than a game of toying with emotions and breaking hearts?

Quinn and Emilie might be falling for each other, but there are secrets he’s not ready to tell—and lifestyle changes he’s reluctant to make. She willingly stepped on the court, but if Emilie finds out she started out as nothing as a pawn in Quinn and Sebastian’s twisted game, she might never forgive him.

To his surprise, Quinn finds that he might finally care about someone more than he cares about himself…even if that means letting Emilie walk away for good.

Kidnapped. Taken to a private island.
I never thought this could happen to me. I never imagined one chance meeting on the eve of my eighteenth birthday could change my life so completely.
Now I belong to him. To Julian. To a man who is as ruthless as he is beautiful – a man whose touch makes me burn. A man whose tenderness I find more devastating than his cruelty.
My captor is an enigma. I don’t know who he is or why he took me. There is a darkness inside him – a darkness that scares me even as it draws me in.
My name is Nora Leston, and this is my story.

TWISTED ME by Anna Zaires

Years before Trip Wiley could be seen on movie screens all over the world, he could be seen sitting in the desk behind me in my high school English class.

This was back in 1990, and I cite the year only to avoid dumbfounding you when references to big hair or stretch pants are mentioned. Although, come to think of it, I am from New Jersey, which may serve as explanation enough. We were teenagers then, way back in a time before anyone could even dream he’d turn into the Hollywood commodity that he is today.

In case you live under a rock and don't know who Trip Wiley is, just know that these days, he’s the actor found at the top of every casting director’s wish list. He’s incredibly talented and insanely gorgeous, the combination of which has made him very rich, very famous and very desirable.

And not just to casting directors, either.

I can’t confirm any of the gossip from his early years out in Tinseltown, but based on what I knew of his life before he was famous, I can tell you that the idea of Girls-Throwing-Themselves-At-Trip is not a new concept.

I should know. I was one of them.

And my life hasn’t been the same since.

He told me to say when, but I can’t. Not with Andrés. It’s so hard to say anything when he’s trailing feather soft kisses down my neck, or when his touch sends hot currents of lust rippling across my skin.

Then there’s the way he smiles and offers soft words of encouragement when I’m creating art, almost like he believes I have talent.

He’s not like any guy I’ve ever met. Not like my ex-fiancé. Not like my father. He’s got me thinking that maybe we can have something more. More than just lust, degradation, and abuse.

And now I’m scared, because that means I’ll have to trust him with more than just my body, but with my heart, too.

What would happen if you lost everything? If the people who were supposed to love you unconditionally were no longer there for you, how would your world change?

Madeleine Becker lost everything when her parents died when she was ten years old. Ripped from her home and everything that she has ever loved, she is forced to start all over again. The only way for her to move on is to build walls around her heart and keep everyone at a safe distance. Her logic: she can't get hurt if she doesn't fall in love.

That theory is blown to pieces when she meets Reid Connely during her freshman year at college. He is gorgeous and darkly mysterious. He understands Maddy's pain all too well, but sharing his pain would mean breaking down the walls he put up around his own heart. Conflicted between loving Maddy and hiding his dark past, Reid starts to reevaluate his world. Maddy's inner strength, snarky personality and breath taking beauty help Reid to make peace with his past.

Together they find out what happens when they let love in.

And women--well, he never sticks around for longer than a few hours of pleasure... until he meets Lucy. After one evening of listening to her seductive voice, he's pulled under. But what about the vow he made to never get close to anyone again?

In a world where everyone has one true soul mate, can these two find love in the arms of each other?

Both on the verge of fame. A ballerina who lies. A baseball player who believes her. Well, the truth changes everything.

Tally Landon just wants to escape her tragic story if just for one night. She doesn't count on meeting Lincoln Presley, Stanford's baseball wonder, but plans to add him to her long list of one-night stands. That's the plan. Lying to him about her age and her name is just a part of her don't-get-emotionally-attached style. She doesn't count on being found out, nor on ever seeing Linc again or falling in love.

Lincoln Presley's life is all mapped out. There is only baseball. With the major leagues circling their favorite prospect with a lucrative offer, he cannot afford to mess up. And, he doesn't; until he meets up with the girl he saved from the burning wreckage on the 101 on Valentine's Day months before. By the time he learns her real name and of all the lies she's told, he's in far too deep to ever really let her go.

When fame and lies tear them apart, one truth remains; and fate, most definitely, has a different set of plans. This much is true.
