Blog Tour Stop & Review ... Shadows of Whitestone Manor by Brittany Jo James



SHADOWS OF WHITESTONE MANOR
Author: Brittany Jo James
Series: The Winters Family Series, Book Two 
Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Romance
~ SYNOPSIS ~
Some shadows are as dark as night.

At least mine are.

My name is Grayson Winters and you’ve already been introduced to my family’s story.

Four months have passed since Lilith moved into Whitestone Manor to be with my brother, Orson. Now they’re getting married and it’s all I can do not to gag when they giggle at each other. Whitestone Manor represents nothing but secrets and darkness to me. Then, light begins to pour into my bleak world.

Prater Hahn has disappeared without a trace. Not that I blamed him or his brethren. I still wasn’t entirely sure Whitestone Manor was where I belonged either. All I knew for certain was that sweet, precious Ava Prescott seduced me with every bat of her eyelashes. Too bad for me, dating her was against the rules.

When a new danger arises to test the residents of Whitestone Manor, it falls on me to eliminate the problem. I thought I didn’t need my family’s help. I thought I could protect the ones I loved. Until I realized, not all who seem harmless truly are.

Loving the seemingly angelic girl I was forbidden to date certainly isn’t innocent.

But perhaps, neither is she?

If you aren’t afraid of what lurks in the shadows, I’ll tell you my story.

4 STARS

** I received an ARC for an honest review.**

Once again Brittany Jo James has captured my attention with her different style of writing. I really am enjoying The Winters Family Series. I am loving all of the characters and the way that this series is different from the books that I have read lately. 

I really like that the main focus of this book is the storyline with some romance. I love that the romance isn't overdone and unbelievable. I like that the romance isn't the main reason of the whole book or series. I like that even in their more that different lives the Winters siblings are learning to adapt. I like that Grayson is finally finding peace with his life at Whitestone Manor. I like that Lilith grounds Orson. I like that Ellison is showing some vulnerability. I like that Pierson is so mature for his age, but that he still acts his age once in awhile. What I like the most is that the Winters family is starting to understand that even some rules are made to be broken. 

I am really enjoying this series. I enjoy that is so different from anything else out there, but it still keeps my attention and keeps me turning the pages for more. I like that there is action and some adventure. I like the the characters have morals and that they seem pretty engrained into their characters. 

I do think that this book was a little less action packed than the last, but it did work for where the Author was taking Grayson's character. I like that throughout this book Grayson discovered who he was and not it isn't what everyone thought he was. I love the change in him. I can not wait for more of the Winters Family and I look forward to book three.

SECRETS OF WHITESTONE MANOR
Author: Brittany Jo James
Series: The Winters Family Series, Book #1
Genre: Young Adult Romance | Paranormal Romance
~ SYNOPSIS ~
Some secrets are too dark to ever be brought into the light. 

At least mine are.

My name is Orson Winters, and you already know too much for me to let you walk away.

A decade has passed since my parents were killed, forcing my younger siblings and me to move in with our estranged uncle. Whitestone Manor in all its grandeur was overwhelming enough. Then, we learned the family secret. 

There’s darkness in the world no one, besides a handful of fighting families, even knows exists. The Winters family is the most acclaimed of them all. However, power isn’t always pleasurable, especially considering that it’s my responsibility to keep my reckless brothers and sister from jeopardizing us all.

When an old enemy emerges from the shadows, Uncle Sebastian calls in another fighting family to assist. I didn’t need their help. I could independently protect my siblings and the rest of the world from danger. That was, until I met Lilith Shaw. Now I’m not even sure that I can protect myself.

I can’t focus on that, though. 

I’m the last one standing between you and those who wait in the darkness.

If you can keep a secret, I’ll tell you my story.
