A Christmas Wish by Engy Neville is the first book I have read by this author, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the way the book turned out. This book centers around Amy and Richie. Although I enjoyed the book, I really did have a hard time coming close to liking Amy, Ritchie however was a different story, I took to his character straight away. This book will have you hooked in no time I am sure, in some place if you are liking me you will be eager to turn the page just to see what is going on. I am also hoping Abby’s story gets written, kinda liked her character to. Thank you Engy for a wonderful book.

I loved it!. It was a little dark in the beginning but it just help show what kind of character Luke is and the fighter he has become. He feels guilty over doing what he needed to with Emily but when she starts working for him, anything could happen. I loved their chemistry and how protective of each other they were. Also the strength to help others with the security company. No doubt, they took me on an emotional ride full of laughter, tears and compassion. Their story is a must read!

Sweet story. I enjoyed the creativity of characters and the plot of this story. The creativeness made me feel as if I was right there with Sophia and Michael who make great characters to read about. Michael,the owner of a dating site decides to use it for himself Sophia has no time for dating between working and taking care of her grandmother so she turns to the dating site. What will happen when they are matched up and find themselves in a fake engagement? I highly recommend this book.

A Christmas Wish (A Manhattan Dream) by Engy Neville
4 Stars
This is my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it. I loved the writing and the style of writing and the way it flowed. I read it in 2 sittings and really want to look at what else this author has available.
The only problem I had with the whole book was the character of Amy…I just could not connect with her no matter how hard I tried, and that is not the authors fault that is all on me. I didn’t hate her I just never could find a way to understand her. On the other hand Richie was amazing and he is what had me hooked on this story, and the ending was perfect. I also loved the little bit of Christmas I was able to hang on to for just a bit longer this year.
I can not wait to look at what else this author has available because as I said the writing style was spot on for me.
This is the first book I have read from this author and wow I was blown away. I love a good second chance but this talented author exceeded all my expectations. This is the third book in The Night Moves series. You can read this book as a stand-alone but there are previous characters in this story as well. I read this book as a stand alone and now I want to start from the beginning. The storyline hooked me right from the start. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible book.

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, humor, and forgiveness. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Janae is a firecracker. She says what is on her mind and she doesn’t care what you think of her. Kia is a handsome man with a heart of gold. He loves what he does and he is not ashamed. The way he treats Janae will make your heart melt. These characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This talented author will have you at the edge of your seat until the end. The ending was perfect and it made me have all of the feels. I can’t wait to read this series from the beginning to get to know the other characters.

Killer Lawyer by Mark Nolan is the third book in the Jake Wolfe series. This book can be read as a stand-alone however it is the return of the main character so it would be beneficial to read the other books first. This book was brilliant. It was exciting from start to finish. Mark Nolan takes you you on such a wild ride. The twists and turns just kept on coming. I loved that I couldn’t figure out who the killer was. Although I hadn’t read either of the previous two books I still felt connected to Jake. He was such an easy character to get behind and I was constantly on his side hoping he could figure things out. I will certainly be going back to read other two books immediately.View all my reviews

A Christmas Wish (A Manhattan Dream) by Engy Neville is a great book about discovering who you are and what you are capable of. This book i found to be a great easy read, one you could sink into and lose yourself in easily for a few hours. The characters were interesting and easy to get along with, although not overly complex. However that is exactly what I wanted from a book when I picked this up. The story was well paced and kept its momentum to the end. This was an overall enjoyable book and I would definitely read more by this author.
This is the first book I have read from this author and it was a joy to read. I absolutely love Christmas stories and this talented author exceeded my expectations. This book is part of A Manhattan Wish series. It can be read as a stand alone just like I did. This story drew me in on the first page. It only took a few hours to devour this incredible book.

She knows what she wants and she wants the happily ever after. Richie is very charming. He is head over heels for Amy but he also has a job to do. This story will put you in a joyful mood. The ending was perfect and I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.
Caught in Cross Seas is the first book in The Caught Series by Sharleen Scott. I came into this series a little backward, as I started in on book #3 first. As I was reading it my curiosity was piqued about the characters and past events, so I snatched up the first two books to find out all about the other characters in the series. I have really enjoyed this series, as not only are they really well written, but the characters are all so wonderfully developed individuals with their own personalities, quirks and flaws- as well as being a completely engaging and engrossing story. The book has so much happening between the covers, with mystery, suspense, some action, drama, and so much more. The storyline is very intriguing, and I found myself drawn further and further into the pages, to see how Ms. Scott brings everything together in the end. After meeting Harlie and Clay in book #3, I have now really enjoyed finding out how they (and the series) began. They really are great characters, and it was so easy to get invested in them and the outcome of their story. The whole plot was very interesting, with wonderful details that brought the whole thing to life. Well worth the read!

A Terrible Beauty (Fallen Eagles MC Book 1) by T. Birmingham has me hooked from start to finish.
Not my first read by this author, I knew going in that I was in for a well written, detail hooking read, that would capture me until the very last page. And you know what, that’s exactly what I got!
Strong multi layered characters mixed with an equally strong plot, I can honestly say I was engrossed into this story. And I have to add, this is coming from someone who isn’t a big MC reader. This book, is different, it isn’t like other MC’s and I believe that is what hooked me so. The raw emotions, the graphic scenes, the connections and the flow of this book was, wow. I felt like I was reading an actual world, like I was there looking in. Being in the service myself and having friends that suffer from PDST, I connected in a way most won’t, and seeing it treated with care and raw truth, hit home for me.
With that said I’m going to leave you here, because I don’t want to give anything away. This is a book you need to experience first hand, without spoilers and without bias. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that if you’re not a MC reader like me, I implore you to give this book a chance.

Beneath the Surface is the third book in Amy McKinley’s Gray Ghost series, which centres around a group of predominantly ex-military people who take on brave and dangerous assignments. It takes place at roughly the same time as the previous book, Eye of the Storm, but focuses on different characters. It can be read as a stand alone book, but is particularly enjoyable when you’ve already encountered the characters and some of the events. The main character, Hannah, is very interesting. A Russian sleeper agent, working for the CIA, and hoping one day to avenge her parents and sister, she has many conflicting motivations. Not to mention the inconvenient feelings she has for Jack, a member of the Gray Ghost team who she once dated. The story flicks between the present and episodes from Hannah’s past. I found it a little confusing at times as the present is in third person and the past in first person, but it is made clear at the start of each chapter when the story is and is good to see it unfolding in both directions. Jack is the main Gray Ghost character we encounter in this story, and like Hannah he experiences some conflict between his orders and his emotions. With rather a lot at stake, he has difficult decisions to make particularly when he realises he doesn’t know the whole truth. This is an exciting action story with plenty of romance and a fair bit of mystery. It’s exciting, dramatic and intriguing. I found it hard to put down, so it’s five stars from me! I’d recommend reading from the start of the series if you’re interested in action romances, but start with this one if it’s the whole Russian sleeper agent thing that particularly interests you.

Tapped is an incredible second chance romance by the phenomenally talented Tarrah Anders. Without fail I always fall in love with Tarrah’s work and this one may just be my favorite of all. I was completely captivated by this storyline from the very beginning, Kai and Janae’s chemistry had me sitting on the edge of my seat reading page after page. My only complaint about this book is the length, I could have read about these characters for hours, I was honestly sad when I reached the end. Their story had everything I love in a romance read, instant chemistry, witty banter, steamy scenes and of course a HEA.
I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next romance read!

I got a little hot while reading this story. Nothing like watching a man dance like he knows how to handle business. J and Kai have know on each other for years. Until J just broke Kai’s heart. You know it’s usually the guy doing the heart breaking so it was nice seeing it from the guys POV. I found that Kai was more forgiving and loving than any woman would be over a break up. J was really stubborn and afraid for the wrong reason. She had major trust issues. The author gave us something to laugh, cry and rejoice about in this story. Every chapter flowed together really well. The characters were put together and understandable. I enjoyed this story mostly because of the performances and the End part.

Bad Things Happen (Ashes to Ashes #1) by Rowena Holloway was a suspense thriller that had me holding my breath.
My first read by this author, I didn’t know what I was getting into, but I took that chance and man did it ever pay off. A dark look into London’s football, drugs, secrets and a deadly tip that puts our MC in danger, this read hooked me, and pulled me into the game.
As much as I was absorbed into this book, I will say that the start was a little too info-dumpy. I get that a setting needs to be set, but sometimes holding info back will add to the story instead of just unloading and hoping the reader will stay with you. Also with all that info, I had a time sifting through it, and keeping the facts straight. But once I got pass that, this story dug it’s dark claws in and I got lost in this thriller.
Overall this book is an engaging, entertaining read that will have you guessing, lead astray, and wondering what’s up and what’s down. Paired with an multi layered plot and complex well rounded characters, this book will take you on a dark ride, have you on the edge of your seat and leave you shocked.
So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval that you will not be able to put this book down.

The story of Kai and Janae is a sweet and sexy read. I absolutely love a good childhood romance scenario, and this book had a couple twists I didn’t really see coming.
Kai is and all around great character, loyal, sweet and trustworthy, working two jobs and just recently purchased a new house. When he runs into the love of his life from high school, old feelings are brought to light.
Janae is a complicated character but, is a stronger woman than I had originally thought she would be. I didn’t fully understand her hesitation towards a relationship with Kai again but that may be just me wanting them to happen no matter what. The issues that come from Kai being an exotic dancer as well as when Kai’s best friend Slater shows up, the drama that surrounds both of these situations, Janae handles very maturely and better than I would think and that made me like her even more.
This book is a great read, I personally wish there was maybe a little more drama but overall would recommend this to any romance lover.

BUILDING STORM is the fourth book in the “Hawke Family Series” and I reread the series before beginning this story. Oh my gosh, they are all amazing!! I think in order to do Storm justice, you should read them in order.
From beginning to end, this epic family drama continues to add layer upon layer of amazing goodness. I have felt every feeling from joy to sadness to frustration and complete satisfaction of a story/series well written.
Twists and turns and intrigue fill the pages of this beautiful story. From beginning to end this book (and series) held my attention. I have definitely put it on my TBRA (to be read again) list.
I absolutely recommend this story, this series and this fantastic author.

The Shape of Trust was a great 5 star read and book five in the Stand By Me series.
Webb is a bachelor that has had some dating nightmares and is a little standoffish when it comes to women. I had a LOL moment from some of his dating experiences.
Lily has been hired to work at the bookstore that Webb owns along with his friends sister, Josie. The way she meets Webb was hilarious and definitely embarrassing for Lily. How can she work with someone so hot?
Of all the bosses I’ve ever had, ever dreamed about, ever see on television…none of them looked like this guy. – Lily
Webb has definitely taken notice of Lily and he cant stop sneaking glances at her. And of course Lily has noticed Webb as well. Things take a big twist when a woman and child show up at the store on a rainy night, Webb is thrown for a huge loop. He meets his 5 year old daughter Julieann. Lily steps up and offers to help Webb with his daughter. Will these two connect and get a HEA.? Or will each of their secrets interfere and ruin everything?
My emotions were all over the place and I loved the bantering. We do get some steamy scenes as well. I really liked all of the secondary characters. Brinda Berry does a great job of pulling you right in with her writing. I didn’t want to stop until I was done, I had to see how things ended. And the ending, OMG loved it. I’m an 80’s girl and loved the band that helped Webb out. This is a must read, you will really enjoy it.

A Christmas wish is a great read. A journey through life as Amy. Amy has a rough past but her future is looking good. I feel like a lot of us can relate to Amy, Although I have to admit I wish I had friends like she does. When Richie Comes along everything seems to fall into place with Amy. Although at first I was kind of suspicious of him he turned out to be one of my favorite characters of all time. From beginning to end this book will keep you reading and wanting more. I would love to learn more about Richie’s sister Abby and her new beau. This is my first book that I have read by Engy Neville and I would read more books by her. Its worth the read you wont be disappointed.
A Blast From the Past, Janae and Kai are high school lovers who disconnect for 10 years and get back together. Janae and kai show us that sometimes a second chance is worth taking. I seriously love the couple. They are everything most people wish they had. Reading tapped will keep you engrossed this book is definitely a page turner and will keep you wanting more. I thought The ending of this book was the perfect way to end this book Although I would love to learn more about Slater :).This was my first book I have read by Tarrah Anders and I plan on reading more books by this Author.

Luke (Dark Water Security #1) By Madison Quinn Rated 5 stars!
Well this book is an OMG type of book. It grabs your attention at the beginning and keeps it all the way to the end of the book. The beginning tears out my heart. Then we are fast forwarded ten years. Everyone has grown up and changed. Still trying to live outside of their dark past. But those earlier life experiences always have repeated effects.
This is written very well. The story is kinda different. Not all a hearts and flowers one. There is some darkness. The characters have stolen my heart. They are smart, strong and resilient. We did meet a few of the Dark Water Security workers with just enough information to make me wonder what their stories are. The options for future secondary characters will be all kinds of interesting.
This is a first time author for me. I loved the dark, the suspense and…well. just everything. I enjoyed her writing style as i was easily drawn to the story and characters. I eagerly look forward to the next in the series.

Full Glasses and Burju Shoes by Blake Blessing is a novel that is an emotional journey of honour, duty, sacrifice, pain, despair, healing, acceptance, moving forward, seduction, charisma, chemistry, limitless love and capacity for forgiveness oneself. I have not read a book by this author, and I swear that this is just the beginning of my exploration of this author’s work. I was stunned beyond comprehension. This story was so realistic, so heartfelt, so humbling. It really made me realise how lucky I am and how much our armed service personnel sacrifice for our freedom. The horrors of war were never more apparent. You usually get the combat stories, not the aftermath of when they try to re-enter civilian life. I could not turn away, and the only time I stopped reading was when the tears blinded me.
The characters in this story were made for each other. Emil has come home broken and unsure of his future. Perrin wants a lot and is never afraid to take the bull by the horns and try her hand at adrenalin soaked activities. She likes what she sees when she runs into Emil. Their beginning was shaky, and the many stumbling blocks put in their path seemed impossible to conquer. They touched fire, they were burned. They survived. I was never sure how their story would end, and sometimes found it so hard to continue because my heart was breaking for them, but Blake Blessing has such a way with words, iy was physically and emotionally impossible to not read to the end. I was Full Glasses and Burju Shoes. I didn’t know anything but Emil and Perrin’s journey. It had everything and when I finished, I felt like I was put through the wringer. But what a beautiful experience reading this story was. It was unforgettable. I will never forget how I felt, the way the characters smashed their way into my heart. I will cherish all these memories and never let go, as they are so rare and precious. 5 stars.
A Suitable Affair, book 1 in The Macalisters series, was a really great historical romance read. I haven’t read anything by this author before and I really liked her writing style. The story was detailed and I really liked the characters. There were some good twists and turns in the story too which kept me fully invested in what was happening. Susanna was a great female lead. I did feel sorry for her at times; she was desperate to find the love that she had always heard stories about but due to family influences was destined to marry someone she definitely didn’t want to. I think this was probably very fitting for the ear that they story was set in so I liked that Susanna had a little determination about her. She deserved to find somebody she loved and who loved her in return. When Ian first comes into the story I thought he would be perfect for Susanna, he was a nice character but also so frustrating at times! They did seem to have this genuine connection which I loved. There were some great secondary characters in the story too and I hope they get their own story!

Nothing But Trouble (Irresistible Billionaires Book 1) By: Ashley Bostock 5 out of 5 stars
The story Nothing But Trouble (Irresistible Billionaires Book 1) by Ashley Bostock is a romance book the I loved reading. It is a story that hooked me in from the very beginning. I loved reading about the characters of Michael Vilander and Sophia Baldwin. Sophia is a strong, beautiful, intelligent, and kind woman. Michael is a workaholic and a man that doesn’t do relationships or anything long-term. He finds her when he creates a fake profile on his matchmaking website. I don’t think an announcement at the Valentine Day Gala by Sophia that she and Michael attend that they are engaged was in the plans. They find themselves agreeing to pretend to be in love, a fake engagement, for a month. Is there more to the emotions/feelings that Sophia has for Michael? Michael is one that guards his heart. Why does Sophia so intrigue him? What does the future hold for both Sophia and Michael? Read this book to find out. Both Michael and Sophia have issues that they face. As the story progressed and I got to know their characters better I found myself caring about them and wanting them to be happy. My emotions went up and down the entire time I was reading the story. There are times when reading that I was smiling and other times when my heart was breaking. This is a story that I got lost in and didn’t want to put down until I had read the final page. The book has a smooth flow to it. There is heartfelt and emotional dialogue. This is the first story in a series and I look forward to reading the next one.

Luke (Dark Water Security Series Book 1) By: Madison Quinn 5 out of 5 stars
The story Luke (Dark Water Security Series Book 1) by Madison Quinn is a contemporary romance book. It is a story that I enjoyed reading and once I started, I found myself lost in its pages. I loved reading about the character of Luke. He is someone who shows himself to be confident, strong, and has a need to help others. He also is a man whose memories haunt him. He feels guilt and blames himself for what happened in the past. I found myself empathizing with Luke the more that I read about what he had been through. He is a character that I grew to care about and believed that he deserves to be happy. A new employee that his partner wants to hire brings back reminders of a young girl who stole his heart. He feels an attraction and pull towards her. There is passion and desire. Can Luke stop seeing her has a reminder of the past? Do they have a future? Read this book to find out. The woman that Luke has an attraction for is beautiful and talented. She is also a character that I grew to care about as the story progressed. This story has heartbreaking scenes, times that I felt anger with what was going on and then other times when I could feel the attraction between the two main characters. From the highs to the lows, my emotions went up and down with the characters. There are other secondary characters that are introduced, and I found myself wanting to know more about them. This book has a smooth flow to it and kept my interest until I had read the last page.

Tapped is the third book in The Night Moves series by Tarrah Anders. This book can definitely be read as a standalone, but I would highly recommend you read the series in order because the first two books are equally fantastic. This book had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until I read the last. Janea and Kai are such a wonderful and highly electric couple and I just wanted their story to go on and on. I highly recommend this book, series and author. I look forward to reading more from Tarrah Anders in the future.

Billionaire CEO Michael Vilander needed just one date. Creating a fake profile on his own matchmaking website may not have been his brightest move. But then Sophia Baldwin’s arresting face pops up on his CHAT NOW feature. Not only is she gorgeous, but after spending half the night exchanging messages with her, he finds her to be naive, innocent and way too sexy.
Twenty-four-year-old Sophia Baldwin is barely able to make ends meet.

When he asks her to the Denver Arts Foundation’s Annual Valentine’s Day Gala, she’s confident things are looking up.
Once Sophia learns that her hot date is none other than website mogul Michael Vilander, she’s definitely not mentioning her night job. What’s a lie by omission anyway? After all, it’s only one date…Until Michael’s ex flaunts her fancy engagement ring in Michael’s face and something compels Sophia to announce her and Michael’s engagement. AKA, fake engagement. They agree on one month to pretend they’re in love before all bets are off.
Pretending to be in love with a sweet and sexy billionaire, but not actually falling in love, ahem, how hard could it be?
