Pdf divinity and the python download Yet while writing has been the passion social work has been the calling and within a career spent in Child Protection addictions counseling and now as a national trainer on Violent Threat Assessment Trauma and Adversity Bonnie has come to know that it is our relationships with people and our environments that shape our souls and craft what ultimately becomes the human experience A Scorpio to the core Bonnie s passion is well passion and all things that are creepy and in the realm of the supernatural Her stories explore what love looks like in the face of paranormal peril for Till death do us part is after all only an illusion Love never dies site_link Love can happen in any number of ways even when it s the last thing you want Even when the world is screaming at you that love is just around the corner it can be hard for people to accept Shaynie Gavin finds herself in that moment when Divinity and The Python starts She s a young Canadian woman who is connected spiritually to nature She s senses things around her from the way the wind blows or a candle moves and allows nature to guide her Shaynie doesn t seem to want to listen to the part where it says that local hockey hero Cameron Weste is the one for her Although he s known to get around the party scene it seems much of her reluctance has a lot to do with self loathing from what she calls Hellnight an alcohol induced night that Shaynie can only grab bits of memories Bonnie Randall created an interesting heroine She s not perfect She s independent Even when she makes the wrong choices it seems Shaynie does so knowing there will be consequences However her independent streak is tough to shake Shaynie finds herself falling in love in the middle of being harassed by a mysterious person The book turns into a whodunit with interesting twists along the way Randall provides clues and adds elements but leaves enough suspense until the end when the Big Bad is revealed One of the biggest drawbacks for me was the overuse of the mystical elements I enjoyed Shayine being in tune with nature Little clues as to how the things around us can take on a life of their own and help us when needed most I enjoyed the subtlety of it. Divinity and the python pdf download Overall it was an enjoyable book and one I was happy to have had a chance to read I received this book from NetGalley for review Bonnie Randall This was a real page turner for me I used to live 2 blocks off Whyte Avenue and know the area well very well for most if my 4 years there I did not own a car Jasper Ave and 109th street I can visualize and place Divinity right there in my mind s eye To write a book about a real locale and place the setting in the depths of a Canadian winter takes skill and an intimate knowledge of the details that make up the winter experience Well done Bonnie I want to shop at Divinity and meet my mom and sisters there for a reading like we have done at The Silk Hat Russian Tea Room are they both still there in downtown Edmonton I also want my 22 year old self to go to the Python but with my 40 something head on my shoulders I imagine it to be around the same area as Barry T s or Goose Loonies do those clubs even still exist Thank you for a great tale for introducing me to the genre I haven t read anything quite like it and for helping me to fondly remember my time spent living and learning in what my dad affectionately calls The Big Smoke Edmonton Bonnie Randall Man I loved this book I became fully invested in the characters and the plot immediately and was thankful for the attention to detail that Randall provided If you have never had the pleasure of experiencing Edmonton in the middle of winter Divinity and The Python can take you there frozen toes and all I started out planning on reading it just one chapter per sitting but it turned out to be much too thrilling and compelling to put down and I finished it in one glorious and very late night This was my first experience with the paranormal subject matter and it has become my gateway to the genre Divinity and The Python will feature prominently in my Christmas shopping as I know it will be a can t miss gift I m looking forward to Randall s next book and am preparing for another full night of reading Bonnie Randall Understand Tarot is not my thing in fact it s against my religion It s therefore astounding that I simply could not put Divinity the Python down. Dive into python 3 pdf github I will admit that the Tarot is a wonderful device for foreshadowing misdirection theme atmosphere and characterization And protagonist Shaynie Gavin is a student of the Tarot who lives a double life Half of her time is spent making enough money to keep body and soul together as a barmaid at a club called The Python The club has a holographic snake that winds its way through the place and it s a place she d rather not be since that hologram is a fair representation of The Python s soul. Epub divinity and the python free Shaynie would rather be at the business she is building mainly with sweat equity in an old morgue This place has a soul too a friendly protective one and she s named that palpable presence Divinity She s added a woodshop to the lower level near the morgue drawers and a showroom for her wood crafted creations on the main floor where she also plans to have a bar and a place for Tarot readings. Divinity and the pythonm book But Shaynie has a secret one that she d rather not confront about a time when she was in so much pain she went out seeking oblivion in shameful behavior And it s a smallish group of people who know her mainly in the circles of hockey mad Edmonton Who of them saw her shame and do they know about it than she does This is a FIRST RATE mystery people with enough twist and turns for a serious roller coaster ride of intrigue hints reversals and reveals Add to that a seriously hot romance and all the paranormal help and hindrances she gets from various spiritual agencies and it was electrifying. Book divinity and the python series order RECOMMENDED Bonnie Randall This book was completely beyond anything I have ever read before It was a really intriguing mystery romance all wrapped up in a very different take on what I can only think to describe as paranormal. Divinity and the python pdf download On that note however I must say that I spent a rather large portion of this book utterly perplexed I could not for the life of me figure out if the main character Shaynie Gavin was schizophrenic or if there was something else really going on Several times I had to refer back to the book blurb to see if I was just being completely daft or Shaynie was a little bit crazy And for the first part of the book the schizophrenic assumption fit the bill much better. Divinity and the python ebook download There were two reasons why I thought this 1 Shaynie keeps thinking someone is following her but there really is not any proof of this just what appear to be her delusions at least for a good while into the book She ll just be walking along and then think Eyes No shadow following her No sound in an otherwise quiet alley Nothing but Eyes I think if one of the main themes of the book is a stalker there should be no doubt for the reader of this fact after so many pages And it went way past that point for me. Paranormal divinity and the pythons 2 Shaynie keeps talking to a building And the building keeps replying But this idea of a personified building a morgue she is repurposing and has named Divinity is not explicitly laid out It basically has to be inferred and having never read a book with such a premise I had no idea that is what I was supposed to interpret So naturally I again turned to the conclusion that she was schizophrenic. EPub Divinity and The python Now that I have read the book and know better I can tell you the idea of assuming her schizophrenic is completely inaccurate and way off track I do not believe it is meant to be a mystery that Divinity is alive in its own way given the tagline for the book is that Everything has a soul But I think it could have and should have been made clear exactly what that means. Divinity and the pythont tv series Shaynie works at a bar The Python with her longtime best friends where she brings in pretty good tips as a bartender but all at the expense of working somewhere that just is not her a bar where the town s hockey stars show up in all their fame and glory She wants her own place Divinity and is working to open it up but she just doesn t have the full start up funds without her tip money. Divinity and the pythonn review However her dream to open Divinity and her efforts to do so are continually thwarted by someone who appears to have a personal vendetta against her And to make matters worse there is the hunky hockey heartthrob Cameron Weste who shows up and won t quite leave her alone And she does not know how she feels about that Or him. Divinity and the python book pdf In fact Shaynie does not know how to feel about anything really because she is still haunted by the events of a year prior events which she cannot quite remember but terrify her nonetheless And because she cannot remember she really does not know who she can trust. Divinity and the python pdf download What follows is a whodunit type mystery that I am sad to say is really very obvious I mean the culprit becomes rather blatantly so to me when he is the only one who never seemed to make the suspect list I was a little saddened by this as I was hoping for a bit of a twist It should be noted that the mystery of finding whodunit is really not one of any great suspense or thrill Aside from Shaynie frequently feeling like someone is watching her and a little vandalism nothing really happens It is still a good story and a good book I just mention this to warn anyone looking for a good action packed suspense thriller. Divinity and the python ebook download While I think it could have used those suspenseful moments it was still a really well written book with an incredibly different premise from anything I have read before In fact I enjoyed it so much I read it straight through the night and into the dawn Clearly thus it was a gripping story even without the nail biting suspense. Divinity and the python epub free I will say as a major fan of a good romance I was quite fond of this love story I think it was all in the nickname given to Shaynie by the love interest I got butterflies or shall I say faeries in my tummy almost every time he used that endearment Totally sweet While I wish he had been a touch physically protective I did like his need to protect her while he was away I also liked the slow build of the romance The love story did not happen overnight and I thought its progression felt very natural. Divinity and the pythonn review In addition to a little trimming the story did drag a little at times I think what this book really needs what would really save it in a lot of ways is a prologue of sorts I can think of two different prologues and both go along with my two reasons for assuming schizophrenia 1 A prologue written from the stalker s perspective on Hellnight Or any other night for that matter Something that really solidifies this creep to the reader well ahead of time and lets the reader know just how dangerous they are even when Shaynie doesn t That would add suspense as well as alleviate a little confusion The reader would know the second she feels Eyes that she is not crazy and that she should definitely be afraid. Pdf divinity and the python script 2 This one is a little strange but a prologue told from the perspective of Divinity This could be the first time Shaynie walked in with a realtor or at any point over its years Just something to solidify to the reader that the building is in fact alive in its own way This way when Shaynie talks to it we know she isn t well crazy Hell it could be told at a time Shaynie is there with her stalker without identifying them and could mention how it knows the stalker s true intentions Two birds one stone. Divinity original sin 2 book Thank you Panverse Publishing and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book Bonnie Randall Divinity Where desire and deception both hide in the darkThe Cards Forecast WorkShaynie Gavin is so much than the sexy siren who mixes cocktails at The Python A carpenter with a business plan Shaynie is trying to amass enough funds to launch her own dream Divinity a place where up cycled furniture from the past is sold alongside Tarot readings forecasting the future and all in a setting that could not be perfect a former funeral parlor Shaynie s belief that Divinity is attuned with the passions the loves and even the lies of its departed souls allow her to feel satisfied when the cards she draws there reveal Wands the Tarot s symbol for work And yetShaynie would be so grateful if the Tarot would also just once illuminate a Hellnight from her past A lost evening whose scars still slither over her skin Hellnight haunts Shaynie Yet when she calls the question of that chilling evening into her deckThe Cards Forecast Loveand love appears in the form of pro hockey star Cameron Weste Weste is haunted by scars and superstitions of his own and

DevilWhen Cameron Weste lands in her life a stalker surfaces too dropping clues to a connection between Shaynie Cameron and her lost brutal Hellnight Suddenly every card warns of deception and nowhere feels safe Shaynie and Cameron have to fight for their love and their lives as The Devil their stalker is determined to turn the Death Card for them both Divinity and The PythonJust finished Bonnie s Randall s Divinity the Python I thoroughly enjoyed this book for several reasons First it s a beautiful love story Well actually it s multiple love stories You may see it described as a paranormal romance but the cool thing is the primary romance is between real people Shaynie Gavin has many loves and this makes her very interesting She falls hard for Cameron Weste He s described by Shaynie s friend and mentor Cele as a hockey god an ice deity In other words he s hot And he plays professional hockey Shaynie isn t a typical puck bunny She s a new age gal who tends bar in the Python a very trendy club in order to make enough money to launch her dream Divinity a new business venture where she ll offer Tarot card readings and sell her handcrafted furniture She loves Divinity and Divinity a repurposed morgue loves her Really Shaynie also shares a strong sibling bond with her brother detective Andrew Gavin And Shaynie loves her friends One of these loves will betray her and one will save her The book s setting Edmonton the City of Champions in Alberta Canada is fresh Ms Randall s descriptions show that she too has many loves and one of them is this city Beautifully written with evocative images I offer this warning expect tears in a good way Not just a love story there s suspense mystery and paranormal elements I m looking forward to from Ms Randall Bonnie Randall First the legalese I m on the Panverse street team free EARC s for an honest review Yes please so if it seems I m putting up a review awfully fast well I read it last month And soHockey and Tarot two things I know almost nothing about but which figure prominently in this book Luckily the author keeps things pertinent to the plot so I never felt out of my depth and was able to enjoy the story Although New Age Paranormal Romance isn t my genre of choice I actually liked DtP Certain aspects of the mystery kept me guessing and the characters engaged me enough to want to keep reading Although this review sounds like a serious case of damned by faint praise I can honestly say the book earned the four stars given and I will be looking forward to Bonnie s future work Bonnie Randall Bonnie Randall s writing is electric It moves it grooves it rocks and it rolls Divinity and the Python is like a strobe light on a disco round colors and sounds in constant motion shadows taking shape for a moment before dissolving into the floor Divinity and the Python is not my usual reading fare so it s the appropriate time to insert a Note of Disclosure The publisher provided a free copy in exchange for an honest review It s healthy to step outside of one s own zone and see what s happening in other writers and readers worlds in this case psychological and paranormal thrills with some sexy bits thrown in for good measure But this is not a novel that can be pigeon holed and I love that I love that Bonnie flips a double bird to genre classification and does her own thing staying true to the story she wants to tell In the hands of a less skilled writer I would not have gone past the word Go to read a story of hockey players tarot cards and a seedy nightclub in Edmonton Canada but Bonnie s writing makes the ride well worth the price of admission. Divinity and the python book series This is one of the talkiest novels I ve read and for that the pacing is fast and furious Her dialogue is crisp and realistic the voices unique and engaging There s a hard boiled edge to Shaynie Grace and her posse of men some threats some protectors worthy of good crime noir I was distressed by Hellnight as much by the incident as by reactions to it and what led up to it I m flirting with spoiler territory here so I ll only say I felt the style of the book too light to treat this kind of violence with the gravity it deserves But a smart sassy strong willed heroine kickin ass and takin names in the rough and tumble prairies of Alberta Canada is something to behold Bonnie Randall I believe the publisher calls this book a paranormal romantic thriller note not paranormal romance which is a related but different corner of the genre I d have to agree It s sexy it s spooky and the tension keeps ratcheting up all the way to the end. Divinity and the pythonr reddit Our heroine is Shaynie Gavin a carpenter an artist really who s making money tending bar at the Python while fixing up Divinity an old morgue to be a Tarot parlor and New Age lounge While the romance is great the most important relationship in Shaynie s life through most of the book is with Divinity Like it says on the cover all things have a soul and Divinity is most definitely a character For those not open to the paranormal Divinity s interactions give off a creepy vibe but for Shaynie Divinity is protection friendship home From the sound of the furnace to the well timed unlocking of doors and switching of lights Divinity is imbued with personality. Divinity and the python pdf download Shaynie herself is great Though I don t believe in it it s nice to see a Tarot reading character who absolutely believes and whose belief permeates every aspect of her life The Tarot descriptions are subtle and the only time the fortune teller fraud or flaky new ager clich s show up are when Shaynie is bracing herself to face them I found it interesting that while the Tarot may have helped Shaynie stay on her guard it also nearly ruined her romance I suppose whether you believe or not a Tarot reading is really about knowing yourself and even the most self aware of us has blind spots. Divinity and the pythonn The dialogue sparkled the looming threat sent chills up my spine and I got some serious shivers when the romance started to heat up The obstacles keeping them apart were very real nothing that felt like it could be waved away with a single conversation. Divinity and the pythonu ug Two big thumbs up and I ll be looking for the follow up in 2014 Bonnie Randall Divinity and the Python is a paranormal suspense romance novel set in Edmonton Alberta a city well known for its cold winters and famous Edmonton Oilers hockey team Of course they are not mentioned by name but you know who they are When we meet the main character Shaynie you can tell immediately that she is not your traditional romantic main character She is an independent not afraid to get her hands dirty carpenter who builds one of a kind furniture pieces that are works of art In addition to being a carpentry artist Shaynie has a dream of transforming an old downtown morgue into a Tarot lounge which she calls Divinity Shaynie and Divinity share an interesting relationship and the building definitely shows up as a character in the story. Divinity and the python pdf download Unfortunately to finance her dream for Divinity Shaynie must supplement her income with her job as a bartender in the popular yet sleazy nightclub The Python which is owned by her long time friend Jude Jude and his cousin Gray who is the DJ at the club have been Shaynie s friends since childhood ties that also make it difficult for her to leave The Python. Divinity and the python ebook download Working at The Python is a double edged sword for Shaynie she definitely needs the money but it also makes her feel like someone she is not The Python too has a personality all its own and Shaynie feels vulnerable to it especially since Hellnight a night of which she has only vague memories but those memories have shaken her to her core. Divinity and the pythonm myth When Shaynie meets Cameron Weste handsome star of the city s famous hockey team there is a definite connection between the pair But word on the street is that Weste isn t a fan of the frigid city and is campaigning to be traded to a team in California All the while there is a mysterious person in the shadows following Shaynie breaking into her apartment leaving reminders of Hellnight There is also vandalism happening at Divinity Who is trying to sabotage her plans for Divinity Are the two connected Shaynie s brother Andrew a city police detective is trying to solve the case and protect Shaynie a role he is now reluctantly sharing with Cameron In addition to the main characters Randall has created a very interesting supporting cast including Shaynie s metaphysical mentor Cele and her partner Barnabas There is also Cameron s jealous team mate Noel Nelson who also seems to carry a bit of a torch for Shaynie Other characters include a jilted ex boyfriend a puck bunny Chrystal who might be dangerous than she seems and a pair of red headed bartenders who would be than happy to take all the tip money for themselves. Divinity and the pythonn review You can tell that the author has a great love for the city of Edmonton Alberta readers will enjoy reading about familiar streets and landmarks mentioned as Shaynie travels about the city Bonnie Randall
