The Billionaire and the Therapist (Clean Billionaire Romance Reads, #1)The Billionaire and the Therapist by Kim Koby
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The first book in the Clean Billionaire Romance Reads, The Billionaire and The Therapist follows John and Natalie as they explore a new relationship under some difficult circumstances. This is a quick read that satisfies your sweet romance craving perfectly.

We meet Natalie at a crucial point in her life. Still living with the fear from a recent tragic event, she has changed her whole life to try and help her feel safe again. Finally settled in Texas, things really kick off when she accepts a job proposal from billionaire, John. He is the perfect mixture of alpha-businessman and kind, sweet-hearted father. Him and Natalie have an instant connection, mostly through their shared determination to help manage his daughter’s PTSD. There is a lot of love in this book and that is what makes it such an enjoyable read. This book doesn’t have lots of steamy romance scenes, but it delivers believable love in many other ways.

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet read. With the perfect balance of drama and love, this book hits all the right spots. It sets up the rest of the series perfectly and I can’t wait to read more of them.

Yearning Young (Burning Britely Book 2) – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

Yearning Young (Burning Britely #2)Yearning Young by Deidre Huesmann
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yearning Young, by Deidre Huesmann is the continuation of Burning Britely. This book is told from Braeden’s perspective, and I thought it gave a much deeper understanding to his situation. He has been the popular rich kid his whole life, and has now found himself expelled from school just before turning 18. He is terrified to come out to his family, since his mom and dad are both already unstable and borderline abusive. He feels obligated to stay in a toxic home, to look after his younger siblings, but when his sister urges him to leave, he begins to start questioning everything. He is torn between choosing his own happiness, and his family, who he always thought was the most important thing. This is a brilliant coming of age story and I loved it. It touches on the struggles a teenager has to face, as well as the added stress for those that are homosexual, or bisexual. The feelings and questionings they feel and comparing themselves to others. I highly recommend this book, and hope there is a 3rd book in the series!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and now she has a new fan. I absolutely love billionaire romance but this talented author exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book to the Clean Billionaire series. I was hooked on this book right from the start. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible book.

John Callahan lost his wife a couple of years ago in a horrible accident. He is now a single dad that is trying to do the best he can in raising his daughter. John doesn’t know what to do when his daughter stops talking. He knows deep down his little girl is still there. John is told to hire a speech therapist. Natalie Ross came highly recommend for John’s little girl Catherine. She left her hometown to get a fresh start. Natalie doesn’t trust men due to her past. She gets a letter saying that her past will soon be free. Natalie and John start to get to know each other. They quickly realize they have strong feelings for eachother. Will John and Natalie be able to move on from their pasts or will their pasts ruin everything? Will John get his little girl back or is there just too much pain?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, trust, healing, and forgiveness. You can’t help but to fall in love with these characters. John is an amazing dad to his daughter. He would do anything to see her happy. John also is a very good man. The way he treats Natalie will make your heart melt. Natalie is a sweetheart that had a dark past. She wants to move on but she doesn’t know how. This talented author will leave you at the edge of your seat until the end. I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine: A Spicy Romantic Comedy About the Afterlife (The Green Room Chronicles #1) by J.D. Frettier – Review by Sarah Oakes

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine (The Green Room Chronicles #1)Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine by J.D. Frettier
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A great read about life. When Bonnie dies, she is sent to the Green Room, a version of the afterlife. But when she gets there, all she wants to do is be with her beloved husband Peter who is still alive on Earth. Desperate to be with him, she tries everything. Is their love deep enough to even bridge the afterlife?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. Well developed characters like the grief stricken Peter or the independent Bonnie. Great cast of supporting characters like the fun loving Dee or the strict and bossy Dharma. The only issue I would raise is that Bonnie was repeatedly said to be a fun loving free spirit, but in the afterlife this didn’t come across
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel wit the continued use of green bright and colourful instead of the whites heaven usually is, refreshing as a sign of hope in the afterlife. I also liked the garden, as a source of peace and tranquillity with tis grass and benches and fountains.
A different take on the afterlife that was refreshing with old friends and jokes making it feel more believable than other versions and the puns with the names was a great touch.
The memories of the past worked well to display how the love between Peter and Bonnie began and how it grew over time and didn’t disrupt from the narrative of the present. I also liked how the novel started straight into the action, grabbing the readers attention with the hospital scenes. Overall, a great read and I would give it four stars.

Yearning Young by Diedre Huesmann a five-star read that you will fall for. This is the second novel in the Burning Britely Series, and I would wholeheartedly recommend you read them both as the first gives us one perspective and some background and then this one shows us the rest. There are a lot of complex issues dealt with in this series and the author deals so well, no matter what you feel this story will make you care. This may be wrote for teens but any age will get something out of it.

Desperately seeking Sixty-Nine by J.D. Frettier a four-star read that will surprise you. This is the first novel in the Green Room chronicles, and I am hoping I can get to read number two soon. I honestly didn’t know what to think when I picked this one up, and I’m glad I did as it was so much fun, but I am still a little in wonder about what I read. I have often wondered about what happens after we pass and where we go, and this story gives me hope. I know its only fiction but its funny and will put a smile on your face if you are old enough to read as this does contain very adult story lines. What more can I say other than bring on number two.

5-stars

Yearning Young by Deidre Huesmann is an emotional YA read through and through. Just like the first book in the Burning Britely series I was pulled right in and unable to stop reading once I started. This storyline touches on some heavier topics which made it an emotional read for me as I really connected with Braeden.

I love how Deidre wrote the first book in Jeff’s POV and this one in Braeden’s, it gave me the chance to really connect and get to know these characters on a deeper level. I may not be able to relate to Braeden and Jeff but that didn’t take away from this book, I still connected with them and loved following their story.

I hope to read more of them in the future and would absolutely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next YA read.

Oh my god! What a fantastic finale to an amazing series! My emotions went on a wild roller coaster ride. From being happy to stressed, elated to shocked then towards the end, sobbing my heart out. Amelia has been through so many ups and downs in this series.

This book picks up at the scene of Robins accident. It was so well written that I literally felt the terror that Amelia experienced. Hawk is getting desperate in this novel and really kicks it up a notch. He puts Amelia through hell. Poor Lia experiences the full spectrum of emotions from love to hate, loss to anger and self preservation. Lia has always considered herself weak but this story proves how strong she really is.

This book was packed with so much action and twists and turns keeping you in the edge of your seat. It was so exciting that I couldn’t read fast enough. It truly is a phenomenal book!

An Appointment (Summer in New York Book 4)
By: Lindsay Marie Miller
5 out of 5 stars

The story An Appointment (Summer in New York Book 4) by Lindsay Marie Miller is a New Adult/Contemporary romance book. It is a story that pulled me in from the very beginning and didn’t let go until I had finished the final page. It had my emotions going up and down the entire time that I was reading. The romance is off the charts. I loved reading about the characters of Savannah and Preston. Savannah is a woman who has had her heart broken. She is stubborn and wants to be able to stand on her own two feet. After her divorce, she doesn’t want another relationship. Then she meets Preston. Preston is a man that is kind, caring, and very handsome. He too has sworn off relationships however at times realizes how lonely his life has become. Then he meets Savannah. These two have an attraction to each other. There is a connection between them. Will their past get in the way of them taking a chance with each other? Feelings and emotions are felt by both. What does the future hold for them? Will they find happiness and love with each other? Read this book to find out. Savannah and Preston are well-developed characters that I grew to care about with each chapter that I read. I couldn’t help but want them to find happiness. I also enjoyed reading about the secondary characters that are introduced. Many of them are supportive of Preston and Savannah. There are some moments in this story that will have the temperature in the room rising. This is a book that has times when there is anger or sadness and other times that warm your heart. I highly recommend reading it.

Yearning Young (Burning Britely #2) by​ Deidre Huesmann is a Young Adult coming of age story. It is a quick and easy read that is a follow on from the first book where we saw two young men grow into a friendship. Now in this story we see the two of them in a relationship. This story as with the first is one of love and self discovery, friendship and drama. It is one of coming to terms with who you are, what you are and how others will see you. We also get a look into family dynamics that are brutal and Braedens need for acceptance.    If you love YA stories then you should take time to read this one.

An Appointment (Summer in New York Book 4) by Lindsay Marie Miller is about two people who are so broken and hurt by their past, that they have sworn off ever finding love again. I really enjoyed the story but I wanted to smack the main characters, for people so smart, they were sometimes so immature. When neither of them were looking, they found love and it is a soul mate love but can they actually get their act together and just be together? Emotions run really high in this story and at times it will tug on those heart strings.

Savannah is sweet and beautiful but she can’t see it after being so worn down by her jerk of an ex-husband. The one thing that has kept her sane is her son. However when she meets a handsome Dr her life changes forever.

Preston has sworn off woman for life but when a certain beauty walks into his office he can’t get her out of his mind. This one hot and sexy Dr longs to be a father but finding the one woman who will accept him for who he his and his faults has left him feeling vulnerable.

The Protector: MAC (Cover Six Security, Book 1) by Lisa B. Kamps – Review by Angela Hayes

The Protector: MACThe Protector: MAC by Lisa B. Kamps
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

The Protector: MAC is the first book in the Cover Six Security series by Lisa B. Kamps. This book follows on from Covered By A Kiss, A Cover Six Security Novella. Even though you could read this book as a standalone, I recommend reading the novella as it is where a lot of the characters backstories are shared, and where their story ‘begins’- although we originally meet them in The Chesapeake Blades Series (I think it’s in Loving Hard- Book #2). So, I guess this is a bit of a spin-off from that series.
Without giving too much away, I can divulge that Gordon MacGregor (Mac) is ex-military who is now working at Cover Six Security, specializing in dark-ops private security. He left the military under a bit of a cloud, which has left him feeling disappointed by the whole experience. He is badly scarred, physically and emotionally- and has a lot of inner turmoil. When he met Tabitha (TR), he was completely bowled over by her- and she seemed to see beyond his outer appearance. This is a woman he could fall hard for. But, instead of drawing her closer, her pushes her away.
TR is a reporter who’s having a bit of an unlucky time lately. She just seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. But Mac seems to think there might be more to it . He’s sure there is a real threat to her safety and is determined to do everything he can to protect her. Has the story she’s been working on drawn attention her way and put a target on her back? What lengths will Mac go to in order to protect her? Will he let down his defences and take a chance on love? With a powerful adversary intent on destroying her/them, there is a lot of intensity and suspense that will keep you flipping the pages to discover what happens. Will TR and Mac make it through unscathed, or will their deranged and powerful enemy win out in the end? You really should read all the thrilling details for yourself- you are sure to love it as much as I have! This is definitely my favourite story of Ms. Kamps, so far.
The story has so much emotion, suspense, intrigue, action, drama, romance, revenge, hidden agendas, deception, secrets, lies, risks, chemistry, sizzle- and with such superb characters you won’t want to put the book down until you have read every single word!! I can’t wait to read the rest of the series now!!! Bring on Book #2!!

Thank you, Ms. Kamps!

The Woman America Loves A Latte caught my eye first because of its title. I am a little bit of an addict when it comes to coffee. After starting this novel I realized that it was more than about coffee. Vee works for a company where she is the face of their brand. She is also hiding from her ex fiance. Her character changed and matured as the story progressed and I loved watching it happen. She was a beautiful soul to begin with but her eyes were opened after she realized Thunder, her ex, didn’t have her best interest in mind. I loved what she was able to accomplish and jealous of the new places she traveled to. I loved reading this book.

This anthology is a collection of stories that all have to do with…immortals. Vampires, shifters, ghosts just to name a few. With so many great stories, this anthology is sure to have something for everyone.

I recommend the story by Jennifer Theriot called Flirty Dancing because it was a mix of utter sadness and far-fetched hilarity! No one really knows what happens to us after our deaths and Theriot gives us just one view with this easy fun read.

If you’re looking for a different kind of immortal…like say a wolf shifter? Check out the story by Nicole Garcia called For Haven’s Sake. After reading this story, the title takes on a different meaning. Great story but the ending just means there HAS to be more to come! Right?!
You can’t go wrong with this anthology!

The Billionaire and the Therapist (Clean Billionaire Romance Reads, #1)The Billionaire and the Therapist by Kim Koby
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Billionaire and the Therapist by Kim Koby is Book 1 of the Clean Billionaire Romance Reads. I thought this book was great from the beginning. Natalie is a therapist who has a past. She is hiding out in Texas hoping her past won’t find her. She gets a call about a possible job working with the Callahan family. Catherine Callahan is a 7 year old girl who had witnessed the unthinkable. To lose a parent at that age is just heartbreaking but to witness it firsthand is even worse.

John convinces Natalie to sign a one year contract and he will pay any amount of money just to hear his daughter talk again. Obviously John and Natalie are attracted to each other but try to remain as professional as possible. When John starts seeing small positive changes in Catherine, he cannot hide his feelings much more.

When Natalie gets a letter from someone in her past she gets a little worried wondering how he has found her. John vows to protect her and his family.

The characters were good, the writing was good and the story itself was good. It was a little short but worth spending the night at home with a glass of wine.

This is a great read about protection. Conall lives his life as a mason apprentice who has a secret, a magical brooch given to him by his father. He lived a normal life until his world is turned upside down when his stepfather tries to hurt his little sister, Lainn. Fleeing from him, they find themselves on an adventure filled with dangers and wonders alike. Can they find safety somewhere?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Conall trying to look out for his family no matter what or Lainn’s carefree spirit or the gentle old wise man of Adhna;  a great villainous figure in Setna, cruel but believable.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel in the sense of the ancient world with the little wooden houses in the forest with the hearth fire and stables as if you were actually there. Or the sense of nature like with Adhna’s house, small and thatched but full of moss and flowers with bee hives and ravens and local resources.
Or the sense of ancient lore and fantasy with the druids and the standing stones; and its sense of wonder with the arch of trees and the glade and the waterfalls for the sense of a hidden and sacred world full of magic and song as if you had stepped back in time. Also loved the use of Irish language and pronunciations at the start which was a lovely touch and added to the character of the novel. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

Wtf, God?: Understanding God in the Midst of Transition by Michelle N. Onuorah

It’s a book that made me question my idea of having a relationship with God. The book is based on her life obstacles and her relationship with God. This title alone is what made me even consider this book; since yes I have gotten to that point myself. Overall I think this book does a great job of making you reflect on your hardships and faith. This book by no means forces you to do anything; on the contrary I think reading about her highs and lows has made it easier for me to dissect mine. I have even partaken in some of her suggestions. I would definitely recommend this book to those who question if god is even listening to them, if anything it’ll probably get you speaking to him again.

By Deidre Huesmann
Rated 5 stars!!

I loved this book! I was so happy when I spotted it and couldn’t wait to get to it on my TBR. We meet up with the boys after “the incident” from the last book. This is Braeden’s story to tell and boy Oh boy it will keep you glued to this book. Prepare for late night reading. Braeden is somewhat questioning his path and trying to figure out answers and keep his home life afloat. How he balances everything is beyond me. Practice I guess. Jeff! Jeff! You impressed me immensely! I don’t want to say much but you are amazing! I was impressed with you in the last book and you just keep raising the bar! I had many emotions while reading this. I snickered, had a few tears, was worried and impressed. These two boys and (Maya) hold a special place in my heart. Being a teenager is hard enough…..

This is the second in the series and I was pleased to enjoy reading the continuing story of Jeff and Braeden. Life is not going to be easy but their strength of character is impressive. I wonder what will happen after the summer is over?

This story flows easily. I started this and struggled to put it down. I was thinking about these two even at work today. Trying to help them out with ideas. The characters are flawless and enjoyable to read about. Another stellar story by Deidre Huesmann.

The Billionaire and the Therapist by Kim Koby is the first book in the Clean Billionaire Romance Reads. It was a sweet story, though I felt like it was a little too short and a few areas where she didn’t go into enough detail for my taste.

John has been dealing with the loss of his wife for two years now, but the way his daughter, Catherine has started handling it has him concerned and contacting a therapist who comes highly recommended.

Natalie is an amazing children’s therapist, she loves her job and has no idea what to expect when she meets John and Catherine. But she has a past she’s running from which could effect not only treating Catherine but everything.

I love my romance books and all that comes with them but I didn’t miss any of that here. It was actually kinda nice change.

Age of Saints (Druid’s Brooch Series #7) by Christy Nicholas – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Age of Saints (Druid's Brooch #7)Age of Saints by Christy Nicholas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Age of Saints is the seventh book in Christy Nicholas’ Druid’s Brooch Series. The series consists of stories following the same family at different points in history, and a magical heirloom which plays a significant role in each of their stories. The books are not chronological, jumping between different centuries, and can be read as standalones or as part of the series.
What I really like about this series is the extent to which it is grounded in history and traditional folklore. Nicholas paints a vivid picture of every time and place we encounter, and doesn’t miss an opportunity to teach us a bit about life at the time. Age of Saints is no different – I swear I could smell the smoke and mud in the roundhouses!
Age of Saints follows Conall, who inherited the brooch from his father, and his sister Lainn. They are on the run from their abusive stepfather, desperate to find safety and reluctant to trust anyone. There’s a good dynamic between Conall and Lainn – they are protective and caring towards each other but with a healthy amount of teasing when safety allows for it.
I particularly enjoyed the animal characters. Lainn is able to communicate with them, and so they play a significant part in the story. Barnabus the bee is probably my favourite…
For me, this is a five star book. I love the rich, magical world Nicholas describes. I enjoy learning bits of Irish Gaelic and Irish history and how the fantasy elements draw on folklore and tradition. I’d recommend the series to fans of historical fantasy, particularly with an interest in Celtic settings.

If the Shoe Fits (Liberty Lawrence Book 3) by Bea Stevens – Review by Kaitlynn Taylor

If the Shoe Fits... (The Liberty Lawrence Series Book 3)If the Shoe Fits… by Bea Stevens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If The Shoe Fits by Bea Stevens

5-stars

Bea Stevens is without a doubt one of my all-time favorite authors! Her writing style is clear and free flowing and I always get pulled in from the get-go. If The Shoe Fits is the third book in The Liberty Lawrence series and my favorite so far! I would highly suggest reading this series in order as each new book follows the last.

Liberty Lawrence is such a memorable character, she’s dramatic, intense, curious, at times oblivious and a true shopaholic with a heart of gold. Bea has created a character that always manages to have me laughing, I really have no complaints about this series at all.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next rom-com, it’s one that shouldn’t be missed!

The Slip Series Collection by Gwyn McNamee – Review by Tracy Wilkin

The Slip Series CollectionThe Slip Series Collection by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Slip series is a collection of three extremely hilarious stories by ultra talented author Gwyn McNamee. They comprise of Dickslip, Nipslip and Beaver Blunder. They are highly entertaining and some of the best written books I have ever read.

Dickslip

The title of this book was the first tick in the awesome box. The author was the second. I enjoyed this story with wild abandon. A guaranteed 5 star author, I knew this was going to keep me immersed and invested for hours.

Rafe is hilarious from the get go, and Andy a force to be reckoned with. Individually, these characters shined and delivered elements of humour, attraction, dramatics and edge. Together they sizzled. From one chapter to the next, there was always a lot going on. Crisis after crisis, Rafe and Andy handled everything thrown at them with wit, clumsy finesse, and passion.

I was totally enraptured by this latest incredible read by Gwyn McNamee. An assured top quality story that has a bit of everything. Readers will want to add this to their to be read list. A definite five star story.

Nipslip

Nipslip is book two in the Slip series by Gwyn McNamee. me just say how much I adore this author. These stories are short, sexy, very funny, slightly mysterious and hugely dramatic. These stories captivate and impress me infinately. Gwyn McNamee is such a talented author and one of my favourite.

The leading lady doesn’t have a lot of luck when a wardrobe mishap befalls her. Tate was a witness and was immediately inrigued by this stunning woman. The story just evolves beautifully, like slowly blooming flower. But tuere was nothing slow about the heat and intensity between these two. The story started out fast paced and rocketed to the finish way too soon. I would love to have kept reading this incredible story. 5 stars.

Beaver Blunder

Beaver Blunder is book three in the Scandalous Slipup series by Gwyn McNamee. It is yet another hilarious and sexy short story by an edgy author that is not afraid to change it up and create stories that are unforgettable. There are so many facets to these stories it is hard to put into words just how powerful and entertaining they are. Each character is one of a kind, and even though the storylines highlight some of the more embarrassing moments in these characters lives, each one is unique and offer a reader so much more than the standard rom com. I cannot get enough of these types of stories.

Madeline and Owen kept me awake and dreaming them when I slept. These characters will stay in my heart and mind always. 5 stars.

A must read series that is side splitting fun and will leave you with everlasting fond memories.

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine: A Spicy Romantic Comedy About the Afterlife (The Green Room Chronicles Book 1) by J.D. Frettier – Review by Sheri Schrader

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine (The Green Room Chronicles #1)Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine by J.D. Frettier
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine: A Spicy Romantic Comedy About the Afterlife by J.D. Frettier is the first book in The Green Room series. I was not sure what to expect with this book when I saw the cover and title but was pleasantly surprised. This is a short, fun, and humorous read. Bonnie has passed away and is greeted by her friend, Dee, to the Green Room. She teaches her the ropes and this allows Bonnie all sorts of abilities. I really enjoyed the interactions between Bonnie and her husband. I really wanted them to find each other again.
The characters are fun and written well. The story is short but it works and doesn’t over do the story by dragging it out. It was written with an open ending to allow for continuation of the story. I look forward to more from JD Frettier in the future.

Back in the Ring (The Predator Series Book 4) by Brooke May – Review by Krista Beck

Back in the RingBack in the Ring by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Back in the Ring is a great second chance love story. Bijou is raising her daughter and trying to keep the youth center open after losing her husband. Noah is the hot single dad that just moved to town. He is also learning to move on after losing his wife. When the two meet, the connection is instant. This was just a sweet story. I have not read the other books in the series and had no problem reading it as a stand alone. However, I have very intention of reading the other books now.
