Paranormal Romance

Paranormal romance is a sub-genre that consist of science-fictional love. I was first introduced to paranormal romance in 2008. I slowly began to explore various authors, such as Sherrilyn Kenyon, in 2010. Simultaneously, I instantly fell in love with Sherrilyn Kenyon’s “Bad Moon Rising,” which consisted of handsome werewolf’s like Fang. I needed and desired inspiration for my very own book. My creative-fiction professor once said, “If you want to be a great writer, read, read and read. That is the only way you can grow and expand your imagination.”

For years, I struggled with finding an author I could connect with. A good book is hard to find, especially if it lacks creativity and imagination. I’ve always had an obsession with science, the supernatural world, fantasy and fiction, but I would have never guessed by picking up “Bad Moon Rising,” I would be introduced to a series of Dark-Hunter Novels.

Needless to say, I had no idea ‘A Dark-Hunter Novel’ had an entire series. I picked up that one book and always wondered, are there any other books out there like this? Until one day, I made my weekly book run and saw a section of the book store that said ‘Paranormal Romance.’ I typically shop for science books. On this particular day, I was looking for a book on Kepler 186-f. However, my heart melted as I saw an entire row of books by Sherrilyn Kenyon.

Where have I been living for the past gazillion years? I've passed this section of the book store every week.

I gasped at such beauty and blurted to the cashier, “I need every single book you have by Sherrilyn Kenyon, now.” In a nice tone of course. The young gentlemen, tall and frail, with short brown hair; immediately showed me every book he had of Sherrilyn K. and even held the last copy of ‘Son of No One’ behind the counter. As I walked through the bookstore overpowered by Kenyon’s series in my small and fragile arms, I felt a sense of accomplishment.

For the past couple of years, I needed inspiration and longed for more books like ‘Bad Moon Rising’. To finally have these glorious books in my hand was the greatest gift to myself as an avid reader. Each book continues to get better, from “Acheron” to “Retribution,” I have finally found a series that keeps me engaged and longing for more.

INFJ – Personality Type

“The INFJ personality type is very rare, making up less than one percent of the population, but they nonetheless leave their mark on the world. As Diplomats (NF), they have an inborn sense of idealism and morality, but what sets them apart is the accompanying Judging (J) trait – INFJs are not idle dreamers, but people capable of taking concrete steps to realize their goals and make a lasting positive impact,” according to 16 personalities. Dominant: Introverted Intuition (Ni) Auxiliary: Extraverted Feeling (Fe) Tertiary:  Introverted Thinking (Ti) Inferior:  Extraverted Sensing (Se) I – Introversion  preferred to extraversion: INFJs tend to be quiet and reserved.

Acheron - Sherrilyn Kenyon, Book Review

“Acheron” is one of my favorite books from the Dark-Hunter Series. Acheron ‘Apostolos’ Parthenopaeus, God of Final Fate, is the son of Archon and Apollymi the Destroyer. Being cursed from the moment he was born, Acheron was cursed by his half-sisters the Fates. “Apostolos, the cursed son of Apollymi, will be the one who destroys all Atlantean Gods,” Sherrilyn Kenyon, Acheron.  Apollymi, a concerned and caring mother, was terrified that the man she loved would kill her son while in her womb. In order to escape Archon, she fled to her birth home Kalosis, where she would be safe. With her niece Basi and her Charonte demons to protect her, Apollymi cut Apostolos out of her stomach. In doing so, she extracted his godhood and placed him into the womb of a pregnant queen to protect Apostolos identity. Unfortunately, Archon being the savage man that he is, trapped Apollymi in Kalosis. There were only two options for Apollymi to escape Kalosis: tell Archon her son’s location so he can
