1 This is a new author for me and I wasn t disappointed reading this story The author does a great job on writing the story and sticking to the plot I love how you will have both POV through out the story and also you get to know the characters This book will keep you on your toes and you ll want to see how it ends Eve is a nerdy girl who attends college She doesn t have the best relationship with her sister and the friends she has tends to get on her nerves She doesn t know everything that happens out in the world or even know what s out there that isn t human When her 19th birthday comes around she meets Theo who she instantly has a connection with The she spends time with him.
I especially liked Eve because she was a person you could relate to The feeling of not belonging and out of place in your life is something that many people can understand. The fact that Theo was the one she related to was fairly expected even though I wasn t totally convinced he was the one until half way through and I have to admit I wasn t expecting the ending to come about the way it did. I still enjoyed the book overall and look forward to reading future installments to the series My Rating Reviewed By Krissys Bookshelf Reviews BooklikesGoodreadsTwitterGoogle PlusBlogger Note I received a digital copy in exchange for an honest review from The Author Theo The Regiville Tales.
Theo is the first book in The Regiville Tales series It is a stand alone book with an HEA This is the first book that I have read by Desirae Grove and I didn t know what to expect I was pleasantly surprised I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading from this author in the future I definitely recommend this book to fans of paranormal series especially ones interested in vampire romances. Synopsis Eve Willard is a nerdy college girl with severe social anxiety He father is a preacher and a con man She is the only one in her family who seems to care about the fact that he is stealing money for his parishioners As a result this has caused her to become a bit jaded On her 19th birthday her roommate Elysa makes her go to a Halloween party Her social awkwardness and the fact that she finds most boys her age immature makes this party a dud While seeking fresh air she wonders away from the party outside and somehow ends up in a cemetery This was probably not the smartest thing to do considering that the bodies of four girls her age have been found is the near by woods In the cemetary she stumbles upon Theo who is leaning against a gravestone. Theo Dyer is a vampire nursing a broken heart His only interest in humans is as a food source At least that is until he meets Eve From the moment he lays eyes on her he wants her for than her blood His intense interest in Eve will put her in grave danger On the night that they meet Theo insists on walking Eve back to the party so that she will be safe While his attitude annoys her a bit she is charmed by his old world manners He s different than all the boys she knows He s honorable selfless and best of all a gentleman. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review Theo The Regiville Tales 1 Paranormal story Book 1 in the series Our hero is Theo our Heroine is Evelyn Evie for short and what is written in the book About the Story Evie is at a party She doesn t want to be there Evie is the designated driver so she has no choice and to top it off its Evie 19 birthday Evie goes through the motions in the house during the party She s looking for an out a spirit that is after Theo s blood she wants to be immortal Theo won t give her any blood That evil spirit has a plan on how to live forever and it has to do with Evie and Virgin blood This is a deep story with lots of levels You will not be able to put it down Theo The Regiville Tales the she wants to know about him She can t help the way she feels and when she finds out Theo s secrets she has a decision she needs to make. Theo is very old and never wishes his life on anyone especially when you didn t want it He has come to terms with being a vampire but he is also lonely When he meets Eve everything changes for him He didn t expect to ever feel the way he does when he is around her and he will stop at nothing to be able to see her The he gets to know Eve the he wants to keep her with him When his secret is comes to Eve s attention that is when he believes he has lost her only to find out that she was kidnapped Now Theo will stop at nothing to make sure she is safe I floved this book and loved how you could feel the connection between the characters The way the characters come together shows the strength and love that they have but also protecting each other from the bad things Overall a great book I highly recommend ARC given in exchange for an honest review Theo The Regiville Tales 1 I ve put off reading most vampire novels because the Twilight movies have soured my perception of them I decided to give Theo a try because 1 it was free 2 why not I love paranormal romance Overall the book was just alright The story started off kind of slow for me the last half of the book is where the action picked up and I was better immersed The writing seemed awkward at times The best I can try to describe this is the author would throw out what seemed like random information but would not elaborate until further in the chapter It seemed confusing at times There were some other issues I had in terms of word choice leant versus leaned repetitive use of phrases raven ichor Other things that personally irked me Theo explains to Eve that Thaddeus is his great great great grandfather He goes on to explain how Charlotte broke Thaddeus heart and he died sad and lonely If that s the case there is no offspring in order for Theo to exist While I know that Theo and Thaddeus are one in the same shouldn t Eve have questioned that Eve said that vampires all things paranormal didn t adhere to the rules of physics Physics doesn t seem like the right term to me in the context of the writing biology or just science would ve been better word choice In the mausoleum Eve doesn t turn her face in Theo s direction during conversation because in the inky darkness she can t see anything But a few paragraphs later she can see his torso and pecs Inconsistencies like this throughout the story really bugged me The cover itself the description given for Theo in the book does not match the eye candy on the cover I know book covers are meant to entice readers visually but it bothers me when the pic doesn t match the description not just here but for a LOT of books Female characters Eve s best friend and sister were kind of horrible Best Friend Elysa seemed to only care about being cool whereas her sister Nell cared only about herself I know some women are truly like that but it bothered me that it seemed all the females save Eve were presented in a negative light Eve I didn t really find myself liking her that much either I have a really sarcastic sense of humor so I guess I didn t find the banter between Theo and her all that engaging I honestly started rooting for her because Theo loved her I liked Theo s character a lot The letting ceremony Theo and Eve s vows to each other seemed to lack passion I understand its use as a vehicle to convey detail of the story but I wasn t made to feel a lot when reading it. I wouldn t say that I won t continue reading the series As I ve stated I liked Theo s character and we re left with a cliffhanger for which I would like to know the conclusion Again the book was good to me but not great I hope next books in the series show development in terms of writing and characters Free copy provided in exchange for an honest review Theo The Regiville Tales 1 FREE on today 11 12 2022 Theo The Regiville Tales 1 I received this story in exchange for an honest review Theo is a story that starts off slow and then gets fast fairly quick Since I hadn t seen a summary initially of this story I wasn t sure what to expect I found Theo to be funny insightful loyal and even sad It s the first story in this series and I have a lot of questions about what I hope will be future stories Overall it s a solid story with a very interesting premise about a supernatural town and its very supernatural residents If the follow up stories are as interesting as this one then the Regiville Tales has just become my newest series by Desirae Grove Theo The Regiville Tales 1 I really enjoyed this book Eve is socially awkward As she is avoiding people she runs into a super hot guy who is not like most guys her age She is highly attracted to Theo and wants to know about him Theo doesn t want to fall for Eve He has a lot of secrets and needs to keep his distance but can t seem to As the two of them get closer someone else sets their sights on Eve and it isn t for love Can Theo keep her safe or will he lose his chance at love I really like Eve She was easy to relate to because she was awkward She wasn t the life of the party As a matter of fact she would rather stay home than go to the party The guys of her age group don t appeal to her at all she feels like she was born in the wrong era Theo is perfect for her because he literally was born in another era I m really curious as to what happens with one character in particular from this book and hope to find out in one of the next books I enjoyed the twisted mess It is a 4 5 for me. Thank you to the author for the review copy of this book I received this book in exchange for an honest review and the opinions stated above are 100% mine Theo The Regiville Tales 1 This book was a little different than other vampire books in the sense that it stayed close to the traditional vampire their strengths and their weakness The narrative was quite causal and informal almost conversational Overall this a good book for some light reading It has romance suspense magic and drama.

Will they find a way to save each other And will their growing love survive it all My Review I really liked Theo as an introduction to the Reg Tales series but it could use a lot of editing because there were certain details that didn t make a lot of sense especially when Eve is doing one thing but then saying another or the exact opposite I do think this book has a lot of potential with the right amount of editing and fact checking to ensure that the information being given makes sense. I liked Theo and Eve together as a couple 1 37% into the story and I think this H is a pansy ass bitch and he s supposed to be a vampire I like my Heroes to be alphas Also there s this ow she hasn t given any trouble yet but I have a feeling that she will So I m out Theo The Regiville Tales 1 Introducing The Regiville Tales a series of full length novels by Desirae Grove Each book in this series can be read as a stand alone with its own HEA and no cliffhangers Eve Willard is a nerdy socially awkward college student She s curvy and shy and finding a boyfriend is not high on her list of priorities Besides she s sick of the immature guys she s been meeting at school she can never find anything in common with them On the eve of her nineteenth birthday she runs into a mysterious stranger who seems to have an old soul Before she even realizes what s happening she s getting entangled in his shroud of carefully guarded secrets some of which put her very life in danger Theo Dyer has never thought he would fall for a woman again Humans serve one purpose in his mind sustenance When he meets Eve he can t understand what s drawing him to her deeper and deeper And before he can stop it he puts her life in jeopardy and he must now rescue her at all costs Even if it means possibly losing his immortality Will they find a way to save each other And will their growing love survive it all Theo The Regiville Tales 1.
