After reading what seemed to be an endless sea of copy-cat writers waisting my time and disappointing me at every turn. Then one day I stumbled across Fashionably Dead and it was calling to me, I had to give this book a chance. I am so very glad I did. Robyn Peterman left me completely hanging after book 1 of her smokin' Hot Damned series. In Book 1 Fashionably Dead readers are lured in with Robyn's unique display of words that left you screaming for more.
Just a taste of Book 1:
It was my first full day of being dead and it sucked.
I wavered between total freak out and dead calm mode…it just depended on the minute. Right now I was clam. I dutifully sat on the couch, pen and notebook in hand. I was wearing my favorite worn-in red tag Levis, a totally cool vintage Tony the Tiger t-shirt and some killer Prada flats. Being dead had a few advantages, I filled out my jeans and my t-shirts like a Playboy centerfold. The girls were amazing. I was a full C cup and they stood at attention even without a bra, which was a good thing considering none of my bras fit anymore. Of course I was also dead, couldn’t breath and had no idea if my hair was alright because I had no fucking reflection. Of course on the flip side, my vision and hearing had also sharpened to the point I felt bionic. Not to mention my sense of smell, I’d almost passed out when I walked by my garbage can earlier. Why in the hell could I smell things if I couldn’t breathe?
Just a taste of Book 2:
Welcome to Hell.
Literally.
The Hell where the Prince of Darkness is hotter than Hades, Hell Hounds smell like brownies and the Seven Deadly Sins are addicted to Facebook…Not to mention the soundtrack in the Underworld is Journey. For real. I should have known no good could come from offing my parents in the space of twenty minutes no matter how psychotic and evil they were… Now I find out my family tree includes almost every deity and mythological being alive while Ethan, the one and only love of my undead life has a limited time down under before he turns to dust. In the land of Sin, you’d think I’d get some nookie time with my man, but no. Baby Demons, cousins and grandparents put the kibosh on that. Blue balls are the new normal. What the hell does a half-Vampyre Half-Demon have to do to catch a break? Apparently find a freakin’ sword, calm Mother Nature’s unmedicated mood swings and make sure Mister Rogers keeps his sticky fingers to himself during weekly poker with the Devil. And I have three days to do it.

Don't be fooled by the tiny tastes of these books... they will lour you in but you will then hooked with a Fashionably Dead addiction. I couldn't wait to get my eyes on the next book in this Smokin' Hot series, Fashionably Dead Down Under. Just as the first book, I want more!! In this book it leaves off where the first book left us completely freaked out in anticipation. Taking readers on a whole different adventure (in Hell) with a surprise down every path (obstacle). Honestly I had no idea what to expect just as any well written book should always be, Robyn nailed it! To be in Robyns' mind would be quite outstanding, she's a breath of fresh air. I could picture everything in this book with Robyn's detailed description, as if seeing it in front of me. Just as before Astrid's wit is a ticking time bomb and complete utter devotion to Ethan fuels her decisions. Making this continuation a complete delight! The way each detail of this book is conveyed leaves no room for needless filler which many authors seem to love incorporating. Everything led to something else and forgive me for being so vague but I am not a spoiler. You are going to have to go get this book for yourself to find out what happens next. If you haven't already started this wonderful series, I suggest you get started right away. Today's you lucky day too, right now and for a limited time only you can get the first book in this Smokin' Hot Damned series for FREE. I kid you not, get it here and check out my review. You are going to die for more!!
