Paladin’s Hell: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #1 by Manda Mellett

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




Paladin’s Hell is the first book in the new Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) crossover Series by Manda Mellett. I didn’t know if I was going to ‘like’ the new ‘chapter’- but these two characters have intrigued me since we met them back in book #3, ‘Slick Running”. It’s bee quite a wait to get their story, and now that I have read it, I can honestly say that it was worth waiting for. I was also surprised to get four POV’s through this story- but that did give a great insight to what was happening and what the characters were thinking. Hellfire and Moira are older, and a little world weary- Jayden and Paladin are young, their relationship is still in the ‘new’ phase- so it was interesting to see these two couple each deal with their own trials and tribulations and watch them through the highs and lows of it all. I think this contrast was quite a clever idea and very well-constructed by Ms. Mellett.
I loved following along on this story- these guys have been through so much (especially Jayden), and my heart ached for them…. as I have come to expect from Ms. Mellett, there was a lot more to this story than it first appears. Her stories are always unpredictable, with twists and surprising developments, and this one was no different- taking me on a ride I won’t soon forget! She had me reading with bated breath, devouring every page to discover what would happen next. There was action, drama, danger, suspense, emotion, heat & sizzle, brotherhood, camaraderie, a great storyline, wonderful characters, and much more….
If you love a really well written, original, and riveting MC story- with complex, interesting and endearing characters- then this is definitely the book for you!
I can’t wait to read Demons story!

Thank you, Ms. Mellett!

Shoot Me: A Lie To Me Novel by Lynda Filler
Five Stars

Shoot Me: A Lie To Me Novel is the second book in the Lie To Me Series by Lynda Filler. I didn’t read the first book which left me feeling like I was missing part of the story, so I highly recommend you read this series in order. I will definitely be going back and reading the first book, even so, this book had me hooked from the first page. This fast paced adventure held my attention from beginning to end. I love the way Ms. Filler brings the characters to life and the detailed descriptions had me feeling like I was right there in Mexico with them. Layla is trying to get over Mateo and finds herself in the path of a few young men. What’s a girl to do? I enjoyed this book completely and look forward to going back and reading the first book in the series.

A Pink Christmas Kiss by Allyson Abbott
Stars:4

I absolutely loved this second chance romance. Billie and Leroy were a fun couple to read about.Their issues in communicating are completely relatable. I love that family means everything to both of these characters. They are willing to put them first. There is a host of great secondary characters that really support the story such as Billie’s parents (especially her dad) and Billie’s best friend, Lucy. I did feel that the ending was a bit rushed, and I wished it could’ve been longer. However, it is a great story that I really loved reading!!

Never Let Me Fall (Fatal Dreams) by Abbie Roads – Review by Jenni Bishop

Never Let Me Fall (Fatal Dreams, #3)Never Let Me Fall by Abbie Roads
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Never Let Me Fall (Fatal Dreams #3) by​ Abbie Roads is another great book in the Fatal Dreams series where the legend continues. It is a supernatural story that is full of darkness and suspense, pain and suffering, destiny and love. Each book is about couples that are bound by a legend where they are destined to be together. Where the connection together is life long and undeniable. This series is one of my favourites and is a compelling and engrossing read that you can not put down until you know how it ends. Abbie is very very good at writing something so dark but also so sweet.

Helena is living a life not of her making. Being accused of something she didn’t do but no one believes her. Freedom is not far away but can she survive long enough to get there. Thomas is damaged and lived through a horrific and tragic past by a monster that he has to live with every day.

All it takes is one look, and their lives change in a way neither of them would have ever thought. If only they can defeat the monster that won’t let go. If only they can escape from the dark.

Even though there is a lot of dark content in this story it is one that grips your heart to the point of tears and makes you hope against hope that these beautiful broken people find peace and love in their lives.

This love found in unexpected places was a fun read.This story is about Mel and Lucas. Mel finds herself in a position of caring for her aunt’s house in Spain. However, the trip was an unexpected one and the job not exactly what she thought. Mel also doesn’t speak spanish. Lucas is sweet and quick to help out even without understanding. I definitely loved reading about them and the progress of their relationship. Allyson Abbott does a wonderful job with pulling her readers in and with character development. She writes great secondary characters as well.

A Pink Christmas Kiss By Allyson R. Abbott. These books are just getting better and better. I have absolutely loved them all so far. Are you a fan of Christmas romance stories that give you all the warm and fuzzy emotions? Then pick up this book as well as the authors other ones! From page one of Billie’s story I knew it was a bit different in a good way and that I wasn’t going to be able to put it down until I read the last page. Billie isn’t your typical girly girl and I absolutely love that! This book is filled with her journey back home and the importance of family. I was completely drawn into this story and loved every moment of it. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone!

Eastern Shore Swingers Books 1-3 (Boxed Set) by Phoebe Alexander – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Eastern Shore Swingers Books 1-3 (Boxed Set)Eastern Shore Swingers Books 1-3 by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fisher of Men
Fisher of Men by Phoebe Alexander is book one of the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. This book is an erotic romance and is suggested for readers 18+.

This book is Leah Miller and Captain “Cap” Chris Sheldons story. Leah was raised with strict Christian values and her family really expected her to follow their footsteps in the ministry. Leah wanted more though. She wanted to branch out from the Midwest so she ended up on the East Coast. After college she accepts a job at The Pearl and that’s where she meets Cap. She didn’t realize it at first but she meets Cap at a swingers party and though she has strong feelings for him, she’s having a hard time reconciling his lifestyle with her Christian values. Will Cap be able to set aside his lifestyle for a relationship with Leah or will Leah be able to look passed her faith at something new?

I enjoyed this book just as I have other books by this author. There was so much emotion and inner turmoil you could almost feel Leah’s struggle. The characters are so well written you can’t help but feel invested in them which really sucks you into the story. I can’t wait to see what the next book has in store!

The Catch
The Catch by Phoebe Alexander is book two of the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. This book can be read as a standalone. This book is really intended for readers 18+ due to subject content. I was pleasantly surprised to find out when I started reading that this book is pretty suspenseful. It definitely adds some layers to the book that really keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to find out what happens.

As with book one, this book invites you to join the characters at a very specific type of club and the book really does a great job detailing the club and it’s activities so you feel like you’re right there. Paisley is very self-assured. She draws people in with that trait. She manages to draw Calvin in and it’s truly the last thing she wants. Relationships aren’t for her and she stands pretty firm on that. Will Paisley be able to rely on someone other than herself when he past comes back when she least expects it? Will Calvin be able to protect Paisley and convince her of their future?

Paisley doesn’t avoid relationships for no good reason. She tries to stand her ground as a way to protect Calvin just as Calvin is protective of her. I really enjoyed the depth the characters had and the chemistry between them. Paisley felt so real. She was flawed but she was aware of it and knew it was something she needed to work on for herself. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the next book.

Siren Call
Siren Call by Phoebe Alexander is book three of the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. This book can be read as a standalone. Similar to the first two, it’s intended for readers 18+. This is the first female/female book I’ve read but, it was written very well.

Jessie has always wanted to be a police officer. She’s good at what she does and she loves it. She first meets Sirena when asked to keep an eye on her. Jessie immediately feels protective of Sirena. Sirena is pretty quiet and doesn’t open up much to people. The attraction between the two is almost instantaneous but Jessie pushes to keep things professional as much as possible. Eventually, they may be able to put their pasts and differences aside and find friendship and love in one another.

These characters are deep and complex. One of the differences in the characters is their age and I was able to relate to that so I felt pulled into the characters. This book was very well written and I can’t wait to continue to series.

Degrees of Control (A Prestian Series Book 3) by Via Mari – Review by Heather Bahm

Degrees of Control (Prestian Series, #3)Degrees of Control by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Degrees of Control, by Via Mari, is the third book of the Prestian series in the continuing epic story of Chace and Katarina. In this contemporary romance, we have traveled the trials and tribulations that these characters as they attempt to find themselves and forge forward in their lives, whether together or apart. So many choices ahead and watching Chace and Katarina navigate those kept me on the edge of my seat wondering which way they would go. I have enjoyed reading their story over the previous books and I really liked how the author continued in this third book. This was well thought out with a captivating story line. This is a series that is worth reading at least once.

A Tangy Christmas KissA Tangy Christmas Kiss
ByAllyson R. Abbott
My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Tangy Christmas Kiss by Allyson R. Abbott is the second book in the Christmas Kiss series, it was just as whimsical, sweet, cheesy hallmarkly, as the first.

Not my first read by this author or this series, I read A prickly Christmas Kiss last year, so it’s only fitting I keep going with this fun holiday series. Now before I get to into this review, I have to tell you that though this is a series, so far they read as standalones. So no worries about spoilers or reading out of order.

Okay, here’s the tea, I wasn’t as drawn into this one as I was with the first. Though I still very much enjoyed this fun tale of lost in translation, I wasn’t too keen on how much time was spent on Mel getting to her destination. Not only that, her first impression, for me, wasn’t the greatest. I know what it’s like to travel, long, tiring and plain old crazy. I didn’t like the bratty way she was acting, especially with the barista (don’t be sassy with people that’s preparing your food/drink, unless you like spit.. then go for it..), or her overall tone for the first 30% of the book. I do get it, overtired, irritated and lost, been there done that to many times to count. What I’m saying is that maybe, starting the book before we get to the strung out Mel, probably would have made me more sympathetic towards her situation. (Cause when it got into it, I got it, her mom pulled a pickish move, but I think that should have been first, like a flashback before the whole barista thing).

But even though this had a rocky start, the more I read on the more I got pulled into the story. It turned into a fun, crazy sweet tale, and the ending was every bit of that Christmas magical, cheesiness, you know and love. Mel’s character did grow on me, she turned out to be a pretty solid character and managed to carry the last half of the book.

Overall this book is a nice addition to any Christmas book collection. The plot was fun and unique. The writing was rich with detail and lush with engaging dialogue, even if Mel couldn’t understand what was being said half the time. That added barrier brings a nice layer complexity that really rounds out an otherwise predictable storyline. Those layers don’t stop there, because as Mel becomes more and more involved with her surroundings, things start to get interesting, because who needs one hot guy, when there can be.. two.

I hope you give this adventure a chance, so please take my high recommendation and my stamp of approval that, this book will have you wanting to book your own trip, on the off chance you’ll find love.

Happy Reading

Healing Danger (Fortis Security #1) by Maddie Wade – Review by Ashleigh Whitwell

Healing Danger (Fortis Security #1)Healing Danger by Maddie Wade
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Healing Danger is the first book in the Fortis Security series. A contemporary romance, this novel also doubles as a suspense, with danger lurking from the very first pages. I quickly became absorbed with this book and obsessed with the characters and their storylines. This is one of those reads that takes over your day and before I knew it, most of the evening had passed while I was glued to the screen of my Kindle. Fans of romance with added mystery and thrills, this is definitely a read for you.

Our leading characters come with one of my favourite things; a past! As much as I love reading about characters meeting each other for the first time, I adore stories where the characters have a difficult past that they have to face up to. Lauren and Dane have exactly this kind of story and I loved jumping in and seeing how things would turn out for them. Falling for these two wasn’t difficult, as Lauren is a loving, kind woman and Dane is, typically, a special forces -trained action man. Who doesn’t want to read about them?! But aside from what some may call, romance stereotypes, this plot is so much more. It’s exciting, completely enthralling and very real. Lauren and Dane both have to make some difficult decisions in this book, many that had me nervous for their future. No spoilers, but I hope you’re as satisfied with the ending as me!

If action-packed romance is what you like, Healing Danger is a must. This is an exciting start to a new series that I cannot wait to jump into. Thanks to the author for a great read!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If you are looking for a wonderful Christmas short story, look no further. Allyson Abbott has written (in my opinion) a nice short story, A Prickly Christmas Kiss. This story is such a sweet story about a small town romance with a cabin, a wonderful holiday season, and even some holiday furry animals. I personally love Allyson Abbott’s stories as they are fun and realistic stories. Her characters can be a part of my world. I really feel close to them. In this story, I love Elf (Emma Louise Fallon). I want her to be my best friend. She is trying to keep everything on the low down, but she is having a heck of a time. I hope you take the time to sit down and bond with Elf.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author and she always ends up surprising me. My favorite books are about Christmas and this author exceeded my expectations all over again. This is part of the Christmas Kiss series. They don’t have to be read in any order because they are a lot different couples. I was hooked on this book right from the beginning. It only took me a day to devour this magical book.

Mel loves her family and she can’t wait to spend Christmas with them. She is on her way back home when her mother tells she needs to go help out her Aunt in Spain. Mel finally gets to Spain and she is so lost. She doesn’t know much Spanish but she notices a very handsome man sitting next to her. When Mel gets to her Aunt’s house it not what she was thinking. It is anything but a beach vacation. She has animals to take care of and other chores. Mel gets help from this handsome stranger and she starts to feel some chemistry but can they get past the language barrier? Will Mel find something she never expected to find again, love or will she end up going home for Christmas alone?

I absolutely loved this book. This is the perfect book to get you into the Christmas spirit. It has everything you are looking for romance, humor, and love. You fall in love with these characters. Mel is so strong and loves her family so much. She will do anything for the person she loves. Lucas is the perfect gentleman. He can’t fight his feelings for Mel. The way he treats her will make you swoon. This author will have you at the edge of your seat until the end. I can’t wait to read the next book in this magical series.

Venganza (The Fuentes Legacy) by Greta Cribbs
4 Stars

This is the prequel to Primogenito and it is a haunting and intense story. The Fuentes family has been entangled with black magic and has been committing evil acts for centuries. Leo wants nothing to do with the family legacy and has been trying to protect his son Damian for years. Unfortunately good intentions pave the way to hell and one fateful night Damian ended up in his own private hell. It was violent, malicious and degrading. His family didn’t only injure him physically, they crushed his soul. It will take Damian a long time to piece himself together again.

This book is definitely not for the faint of heart and can be a trigger for some people. It was so detailed and well written that I felt like I experienced everything as well. There were moments where I needed to step back and breathe. The book shows the aftermath of what a victim goes through. It enlightens you to all they need to overcome mentally in the road to healing. It doesn’t only affect them but the ones they love as well.

The author did an excellent job explaining Damian’s story in this book. It is a good lead into Primogenito and Damian’s reluctance into returning to Asheville.

A Prickly Christmas Kiss
By Allyson R. Abbott
Rated 4 stars

Emma Louise Fallon or more affectionately known as ELF is planning on a Christmas vacation in a cabin outside of North Polerton with her friend Carla. Carla calls with car trouble so she won’t be able to come. ELF ventures on by herself. On the way she stops in Polerton to get gas and meet a couple who she thinks are Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus. Once she get to the cabin she can’t believe how rustic it is. No light or heat or running water. A stray cat showed up and he seemed to help ELF when she needed it most. She starting thinking of him as a magical cat. She met a cop/town vet named Rudi with a swollen nose. He thought to help her survive out in the cabin and show her how to keep warm.
This was a cute Christmas story with a little bit a magic in it. I enjoyed the way the author made the town like the North Pole. Including all kinds of characters that would be involved with Santa. I was even suspicious of the random reindeer in the forest.

Holy smokes not only is this book so H-O-T that I could hardly put it down but the story is crazy good resulting in the same problem.
I couldn’t put this book down!

These characters are are so lovable. From the first meeting they drew me in. Havana with her strong will and Liam, Gabe and Mason each have amazing qualities all their own. I love a good shifter story and this is one. It moved along at a good pace and I was able to meet each character in a timely manner. Therefore I got a good feel of each before moving onto the next.

This has a “for now” ending. Meaning we don’t have answers to many of the questions and thoughts that were raised during the book. So while not a cliffhanger not completely satisfying either. I would be curious what happens when a couple things( that I can’t mention) happen. It’s definitely a great quick read!

Eastern Shore Swingers Books 1-3 by Phoebe Alexander

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I give Eastern Shore Swingers Books 1-3 (Boxed Set) by Phoebe Alexander, 5 stars.

This is the first three books in a series centering around a swingers club in Ocean City, Maryland. In book 1, Leah is not familiar with the swinger lifestyle, but after meeting Cap, she may change her mind. What the strong Christian believes she was raised with? Is it really so wrong? Book 2 shows us more about Paisley, a woman who fits right into the club. When she encounters Calvin, she knows a good thing when she sees it. But can she give up her lifestyle if he doesn’t agree with it? Book 3 is about Jessie, a cop who happens to help out with the club when possible. She adores the owners, so she agrees when they ask her to keep an eye on one of their members. But can she just do her job or is she falling for this beautiful woman?

I loved these books. Yes, they all revolve around the swingers club, but they are all very different from each other. If you have never read this author before, you must read these. Her writing is very fun and done so well. These are about alternative lifestyles, so please have this in mind. If you are open minded and like romance books that have so much more going on than just the romance themselves, I highly recommend this set.

You will find that each of these stories have their own main characters, but they are all still connected. Let’s not forget about the steamy moments that will leave you needing a fan.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reckless: A Steamy Contemporary Romance Anthology features four stories by Mika Jolie, Kylie Stewart, P.M. Carson, and Sharla Lovelace. Each of the books within this anthology bring the meaning to hot and steamy in a romance. I had to literally check the thermostat to ensure it wasn’t too high, hot hot hot! The chemistry is off the charts, the passion scorches the sheets, and the dialogue was on point. I have previously read 1-2 of the authors in this set, but a few were new. Anthologies are one of the sets I always like to read. It gives me an opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and try something new, something enticing and potentially appealing. These authors delivered all of that. If you are looking for a steamy and hot romance, give these the chance to quench that thirst.

The story Paladin’s Hell: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #1 by Manda Mellett is an amazing book that I loved reading. It is a story with romance and suspense. It at times had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. It also has wonderful characters that I grew to love with each chapter that I read. First, there is Jayden and Paladin. Jayden or “Jay” as she is called is a young woman who is a survivor. While she may be young, she is strong and believes in the man that rescued her, Paladin. I loved reading about how Jayden felt about Paladin. While doubts or questions cross her mind, Paladin always remains a special person in her heart. That Paladin is in love with Jayden is undeniable. He is her protector and will guard her with his life. No other woman can take her place. Situations happen that cause them to move to Colorado. Will this be the beginning of their future together or will they be pulled apart? There are also the characters of Hellfire and Moira. Hellfire is the president of the Colorado chapter of Satan’s Devils and Moira is his old lady. I enjoyed reading about them and the background information that is provided both about them and the club. The story is written in such a way that I could feel the emotions of the characters. Such as how at times Paladin doesn’t feel that he fits in with his new brothers or how Jayden deals with her conflicting emotions. This is a wonderful story and I would highly suggest reading it. This book brings the characters to life and I am looking forward to reading what comes next in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an amazing set of books, each one 5 stars and I thoroughly enjoyed them all. Ms Alexander is a truly talented author and I absolutely adore her writing! The box set contains three books – Fisher of Men, The Catch and Siren Call.

Fisher of Men
I quickly became completely absorbed in Leah and Cap’s story, I think it’s definitely a story where you shouldn’t judge people’s lifestyles – everyone is entitled to live the life they see fit and whilst I personally may not want to live that lifestyle I admire the way the author has written about it. She went deeper into that lifestyle than what I thought about it and I really began to understand how that kind of relationship may work. I actually finished reading with a different view to when I started it.
I liked Leah and I could really understand her reticence, she has grown up being told one thing and it’s hard for her to accept that actually that may not be the way she wants to live her life. I loved her relationship with her friend and that they were there to support each other.
Cap was just HOT! I love a story with a more mature male lead, there’s just something a little sexier about all that experience and knowledge. He came across as a genuinely nice person and I could really feel the connection between him and Leah.

The Catch
I admit when I first read the synopsis of this book I wasn’t 100% sure but I’m so glad that I gave it a chance and read it, I was totally hooked from the very start. I loved the main character Paisley. It was really refreshing to read about a character that’s not model think, but someone who is confident and sassy whatever her size! She definitely had no problems attracting the men! I haven’t read anything by this author previously but I will definitely be looking out for more of her books now. The character development over the story was good; it had a story line that was different and some great unexpected twists that made the story even more interesting. There were also some extremely saucy sex scenes – I was impressed with how well written these were. Another plus side to this book is the descriptive writing – I could imagine exactly what I was reading about, especially the layout of the club where the story is set.

Siren Call
I have been so fortunate to read a lot of books by this amazingly talented author now and whilst I’m not a huge fan of f/f books I knew I needed to read one written by her and I am so glad I did. I usually find that I’m not overly keen on f/f books because I fail to connect with the characters, I admit I love an alpha male however there was something about the characters in this story that made me love them straight away. There was every emotion I could think in this story and Phoebe Alexander has created such amazing, well developed characters in Jessie and Sirena. I loved the connection between the two and I really felt like I could feel it. Watching them navigate their pasts and begin to trust each other was a joy to read.
As always there were fantastic positive messages throughout the book – one of the things I love about this author! That along with great characters, storyline, pace and flow resulted in fantastic 5 star read for me!

The Eastern Shore Swingers are a steamy bunch! Filled with titillating love stories where real feelings are at the core. It’s just a lifestyle, people, but there’s more to it. Leah and Cap seemed like an unlikely match to me at first, but he draws something out of her. Paisley is pretty reluctant to do any more than casual, but Calvin has a calm confidence that makes all the difference. Jessie and Sirena were definitely a surprise. Each story has surprise elements and an action/ adventure feel. If you haven’t started these yet, a box set is really the best deal.

Beachcomber Gone; Beachcomber Investigations Book 9 by Stephanie Queen – Review by Katie Matthews

Beachcomber GoneBeachcomber Gone by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Even after all the books in this series I am still completely hooked on Dane and Shana’s story, the author has been able to keep my interest for so long. I love that every book is different, always exciting and always has me on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what is going to happen after the turn of every page. This ninth book in the series could be read as a standalone however I would definitely recommend reading them in order – they are definitely worth it! The authors’ writing again was fantastic and I read the book easily in a few hours. Her attention to detail is always spot on and I absolutely love reading her books! I think this may be my favourite from the series and I really hope that there is more to come!!

Hope’s Deceit (Fated Book 2) by Angela McPherson – Review by Tracy Wilkin

Hope's Deceit (The Fated #2)Hope’s Deceit by Angela McPherson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hope’s Deceit is book two in the Fated series by Angela McPherson. Trinity and Blain and company are back with more fighting, drama action, thrills and spills. In this ever exciting instalment, they continue to fight evil and find hope for a better, safer world.

There was a lot of back and forth, back and forth in this story. But these characters are so young, I forgot how riddled with drama young adult life really can be. It is no different for the supernatural. Young love is young love ,in any walk of life. This colourful cast was exclusively entertaining, the plot was engaging and intense, with trouble, chaos and violence never too far away. The story changed directions very quickly, which made the tale more incredibly addictive. Never knowing what to expect was both aprehensive and arousing. This incredible book is worth 5 stars.

The Moon in Her Eyes: a witch’s tale by Nikki Broadwell – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Moon in Her Eyes: a witch's taleThe Moon in Her Eyes: a witch’s tale by Nikki Broadwell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Moon in Her Eyes: a witch’s tale by Nikki Broadwell is a fantasy and is full of magic and witches both good and evil. The characters were likeable and the story was set over a lot of different time zones and was a bit hard to keep track of it all. The overall theme of time travel and plot were interesting and I became engrossed in the story because I had to know how it ended. It is not my favourite by Nikki but I was intrigued. At times the main character annoyed me and I wanted to smack her but I had to remember she really was a young adult.

Overall it is a good story that should be added to your to read pile. Enjoy.

The Killmores (Killmore Series) by Martha Sweeney – Review by Sunday Barnaby

The Killmores (Killmore #2)The Killmores by Martha Sweeney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Killmores by Martha Sweeney
Five Stars

The Killmores is the second book in the Killmore series by Martha Sweeney. This series should be read in order, so if you haven’t read Killmore already stop right here and read it first. You won’t be disappointed it is also a five star read. This book begins where the first book ends and it is filled with mystery, suspense and action. If you are like me, you won’t be able to put this book down and it will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.
Laurie is such a strong character with bada** tendencies, which I love is a female lead. Aiden is ready to follow Laurie to the end of the earth and I love how we find out more about him in the story. I don’t want to give any spoilers, so I’m going to leave it there. I absolutely recommend this book, series and author, and am looking forward to reading more from Ms. Sweeney.

The Memory of Us by Lisa Sorbe – Review by Angela Hayes

The Memory of Us

The Memory of Us by Lisa Sorbe

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



The Memory of Us by Lisa Sorbe is a fantastic contemporary romance- with second chances, love, loss, heartache, a little drama, and a wonderful plot. There was sooooo much to love about this book- it has a real depth of emotion to it, which triggered a wide range of feelings in me. After reading Ms. Sorbe’s other work, I must admit that I had some high expectations for this story- and I am really happy to say that she didn’t let me down, this is every bit as good as I hoped it would be.
I love the cover on this book, but it’s the beautiful contents that really captivated me- pulling me in and keeping hooked the whole way through. I loved meeting these wonderful characters and following them through their second chance, they were so lovingly crafted into interesting and unique individuals, who we got to witness grow and develop as their story unfolded. The story was quite emotive, but also extremely enjoyable- I flew through the it in a matter of hours.
I really can’t wait to see what Ms. Sorbe does next!

Thank you, Ms. Sorbe!
