Cover Reveal: Love Always Lindisfarne – Kimberley Adams

Return to Northumberland where happy ever afters await…

Take a magical trip to stunning Northumberland via the pages of this feel-good romantic comedy by award winning writer Kimberley Adams. Full of warmth and joy, it will leave you with a wide smile and a yearning to visit this iconic location in person.

When the almost unbelievable truth about Kittiwake Penaluna’s heritage comes to light, the residents are shocked, but in true island fashion they rally together to protect their fledgling chick as she faces life-changing revelations.

Meanwhile, the island mourns the loss of its beloved village butcher, and the closure of the shop on Main Street leaves a hole at the heart of the community. Then, when other businesses unexpectedly close, rumours begin to circulate about who might be behind the unsettling changes.

As familiar faces depart, new ones arrive, but not everything is as it seems. And when a despised figure from the past returns, old tensions resurface and the island is thrown into further turmoil.

Amid the chaos, Ellie and Zen finally begin preparing for their long-awaited wedding, but as always on the island, nothing goes quite according to plan. With difficult decisions to make and obstacles to overcome, they soon discover that they can weather any storm, because love always endures on Lindisfarne…

Kim was born in Corbridge in Northumberland and still lives in this gorgeous corner of the world. Passionate about the area, Kim tends to set her work in the northeast, and why not considering the wealth of stunning scenery and the warm-hearted locals, both of which constantly give her ideas for future writing endeavours.

Kim’s debut Love Lindisfarne was released October 2023 and from its first cover release on social media gained momentum, taking Kim totally by surprise. Kim had never envisaged writing more than one book, but here we now are at number four, three Lindisfarne book and a Christmas novella called the Christmas Angel of the North which is about a nana and her granddaughter and set in Newcastle.

Kim finds most of her inspiration mooching around cafes across the Northeast where she ‘overhears’ some of the funniest and warmest things that are stored away for future use (anonymously of course!) If you see her, buy her some cake, then she promises never to write about you – unless you want her to of course!

Kim is very proud of her ratings on Amazon and if you want to read reviews for her previous books just pop on and you will be able to see just why Kim gets quite emotional over some of the lovely things that have been said about the books! If you do enjoy the books, please try and leave a rating or review, you don’t even have to have bought the book from Amazon, but each rating helps towards getting the system to recognise Kim and her books.

Through the deception of Hel’s general—the mighty black wolf and demi-God, SkÖll—she betrays the Gods of Lyrath to declare war on a race of humans with powerful psychic abilities. The Gods then exile her to Astaran and sever her black wings. With the help of her acolytes, The Anakaii, she takes control of Astaran.

When her power leads to deadly consequences, she vows to never use the gift on anyone again. During her time in the wilderness, Aida’s relationships are sparce, except for the mysterious presence that has been linked to her consciousness for as long as she can remember…

When an Astaran Guard and tracker named TYRAN is tasked with finding an escaped prisoner, he finds Aida after she has been captured by four vicious servants of The Sovereign. Upon saving her from a brutal assault, the pair flee into the dangerous depths of The Furian wood, far from the reach of The Sovereign’s stronghold in Opeth city.

As they travel to the bounds of their known world and approach the towering Vazaketh mountain range, they encounter ancient beasts, discover a hidden race of exiles, learn the answers to the secrets of their past and future, and a solidify a soul-bond that may be the key to the liberation of their entire realm.

Freedom was her final dance, until the devil stepped onto her stage.

Niya is the most famous dancer in Khoya, bound by a contract to a kingdom that has stolen her independence. With her servitude nearly over, she is closer than ever to gaining safe passage to the revered city of Varnasi—and a life of her choosing.

But when Zehan, the Prince of Hell, witnesses her final performance, he claims her as his Chosen and drags her to the realm of demons.

Now, to gain her freedom, Niya strikes a new bargain: serve in Zehan’s court and use her magic to help him uncover who is stealing the souls of his subjects. The culprit proves elusive, and the more time Niya spends in Zehan’s world, the more her heart betrays her vow to leave.

Whirling between deceitful anti-gods and an unraveling prophecy, Niya finds a surprising source of power as she steps into an unexpected destiny…and an inescapable love.

Some loves are worth killing for. And some are worth becoming a monster for.

I’m the Council’s best weapon. A slayer born to hunt the darkness.

They lied.

Brielle Thorne has staked more vampires than she can count, but the nightmares won’t stop—visions of blood-soaked victims and three faces she shouldn’t recognize. When the legendary Crimson Veil rises, weakening the barrier between life and death, three ancient vampires emerge from the shadows with a terrifying claim: she belongs to them.

Cazamir, the Primordial. A possessive monster powerful enough to make entire kingdoms kneel.

Dayden, the Shadow Walker. He’s beautiful and broken. And burning with a hatred for her that tastes like obsession.

Sin, the Illusionist. He’s snarky, dangerous, and far too good at making her forget why she should run.

They say she was theirs once, in a life she can’t remember. They say the Council cursed her, stole her, and turned her into their weapon. When the blood moon reaches its peak, she’ll have to choose: remain the hunter or reclaim her throne as their queen.

But as their touch awakens something dark and ravenous inside her, Brielle realizes the most dangerous thing isn’t the curse.

It’s how badly she wants to surrender.

I’ve hated Grant Wyndham for as long as I can remember. Back in our hometown, he was my tormentor. The source of my worst angst.

So when he shows up at my clinic, it shakes my world. How can that awful man be a doctor now? And how can I make it through the next three months with him?

I can’t let him get to me. I’m no pushover, and I can make him regret his treatment of me.

Except—it seems like he’s changed, and it’s clear he wants me. There’s a part of me that wants him, too.

When things start to heat up between us, I have to ask myself some important questions. Can I ever forgive him? Has he really redeemed himself?

And when attraction turns into something deeper, I’m forced to confront the past. What happens when the man who hurt you so badly is the one who sees you most clearly?

Sonia never expected her Ghost Whisperer powers to unravel a conspiracy buried beneath the Blakewell Mages—or to bind the ancient being of Death himself to her soul. But the bloodline curse hunting her is accelerating, draining her magic and fraying her mortality thread by thread.

When the mist that shields Blakewell shatters and chaos erupts, Sonia is pulled into a deadly battle: Blakewell is beginning to fracture—its magic failing, its people turning desperate—Sonia uncovers secrets in her mother’s ledger that the Black House would kill to keep buried.

Her only allies are the two men she shouldn’t crave.
McDara, the detective who keeps choosing grief over his own heart.
And Death—the immortal who would raze worlds rather than lose her.
But Death’s price presses her closer to him than she’s ever dared—and surrendering to it might break her in ways even magic can’t fix.

As Sonia’s magic burns unstable and a faceless ghost stalks her every step, she discovers a haunting warning: something beneath Blakewell is waking—and it is hungry.

To survive her twenty-fifth birthday, Sonia must face a realm built of shadows, lies, and the dangers that come wrapped in trust… even if doing so costs her the memory of the one person she was never meant to forget.

A dark, addictive romantasy full of devastating choices, breathtaking magic, and a love that defies life and death.

AVAILABLE ON AMAZON

 

Triggers:

  • On page spice
  • Brief moments of blood or body horror (mild, not graphic. Think murder mystery moment. The crime scene is found but is not gory.)
