FortitudeFortitude by Carrie Dalby
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fortitude was a great 5 star read. This is a historical romance set during the Spanish-American war.

This is Claire’s story and what she goes through due to her choices. Claire was a brave, independent and strong woman who stood up for what she believed in. She is a nurse for the Buffalo soldiers, caring for them and helping them recover. When things take a twist, she finds herself caught up in racial issues.

Carrie Dalby continues to pull me in with her writing. I really enjoyed this book, there was so much going on. My emotions were all over the place. At times it was hard to read some of the racial parts. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. There were several twist and turns. If you’re looking for a good read that will tug at your emotional strings this is the one for you. 1-click and get started today.

Don't Let Me (The Simplicit Duet #1)Don’t Let Me by Marie Skye
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Don’t Let Me by Marie Skye is book one of the Simplicit Duet. I was pulled in from the beginning of this story because the storyline was so intriguing I needed to know what was going to happen.

Damien, Olivia and Jaxon are drawn together and Olivia finds herself between a rock and a hard place. She has feelings for both men but when one leaves her, she says yes to the other. She had no idea the twists and turns that would play out down the road.

This book was so emotional I didn’t know what to feel from one moment to the next. I was absolutely immersed in this book.

Me and Cinderella (The Dirty Rooster #2)Me and Cinderella by Kelly Mooney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Me and Cinderella by Kelly Mooney is book two of The Dirty Rooster Series. This book can be read as a standalone. This book pulled me in right from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down.

Eli swore he would never return to Sugar Creek. He stood by that until his brother needed him. One thing he knew for sure was he couldn’t have anything to do with Remington. He’s always had deep feeling for Remington even though she is his little sister’s best friend.

I absolutely loved this book. There is so much emotion between the characters. The story is so well written that it’s relatable as are the characters. The banter between the characters added a lighthearted element that was a wonderful way to break up the emotion a little. This book truly has it all.

This book was great! I loved the dual POV and the small flashbacks thrown in as well.
I didn’t feel we really got to know Eli, yes we got to see his feelings and actions but I felt I was missing just a little something. He was very in your face and up front on a lot of things.
Remington, or Remy, was a girl I felt a connection to right away. And I loved her teasing of Eli to get him to show his feelings to her.
Loved all the other characters to, and wish to see more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Pandora’s Price is book three in the Hart & Cole series by Sacha T. Y. Fortuné. A dynamic series that captivates and titillates. A cast of characters that take your breath away, astound you and leave you desperate for more.

Darren and Luisa’s saga continues and the drama just builds, achingly tantalising, creating a nail biting intensity that showcases the brilliance that is in every paragraph. The characters are complicated, difficult, but simple in their base wants and needs. They crave the most simplest things. Want, love, acceptance, forgiveness, kindness, tolerance, understanding. The feelings these characters brought out in each other was so mesmerising, so passionate. I could not have wished for a more explosive drama. It was everything. 5 stars

Vantage Point (Gray Ghost #4)Vantage Point by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This is the fourth book of the Gray Ghost series that I became to love. My favorite genre is military romance and this author always exceeds my expectations. This book can be read as a stand alone but there are prior characters in this book as well. I was so happy when this book can out I dropped everything and started reading it. I was so hooked on these characters it only took me a day to devour this incredible book.

Hawk Ares is the quietest member of the Gray Ghost team. That is why his job is the sniper that hides above. Hawk is very curious of his neighbors. He hears them fighting so he decides to check it out. Hawk wants to know if this beautiful woman is in danger. He calls this woman Red due to her beautiful hair color. Hawk has always played it safe when it came to relationships. He doesn’t want to get hurt but he can’t stop this feeling he has when he sees Red. Hawk is shocked when Red runs to him for help. Stella and Hawk get to know each other and they feel a pull like they have never felt before. As they get closer so does the enemies. Will Hawk protect Stella with everything he has including his own life?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, mystery, and suspense. You can’t help but to fall in love with these characters. Hawk looks very tough on the outside but he is a big teddy bear. He loves his brothers and will protect anyone that he loves. The way he treats Stella will make your heart melt. Stella is a very strong and independent woman. Her brother keeps on dragging her down. She wants to find that man that will fight for her. 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. I can’t wait to see what she will write next. I know for sure I will be the first to read it.

FORTITUDE by Carrie Dalby. This is not the usual type of book that I read but I really enjoyed it. This was a very emotional read set in 1898 when Claire decides to be nurse for the Buffalo Solider’s during the Spanish American War. This was unheard of for a red head, freckled, white woman but Claire was not your average woman. Her best friend was Creole which was not popular during the Jim Crow Law days. As a nurse she falls in love with a solider and that throws her into the fire of the racial wars of the times. Claire is very hard headed and will do what she wants, not normal in that day and time. She is a modern day bad a#@! I loved this book and I read it in one sitting. I think you will enjoy it as much as I did!

Me and Cinderella ( The Dirty Rooster Book 2) By Kelly Mooney. This is the 2nd book in The Dirty Rooster series but it can be read as a standalone. I loved this story about Eli and Remington or Remi.

Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5)Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander is book five of the Eastern Shore Swingers Series. These books can be read in any order but characters from previous books do make appearances.

Luke feels stuck in a hopeless situation. He really doesn’t see any hope that it will change. He gets invited to the club and that’s where things might start to change. Connie doesn’t participate in the lifestyle but likes to spend time at the club with her friends. She feels an instant connection to Luke but then she finds out about his baggage. Is their connection worth the trouble it’s causing?

This book was so good and probably my most favorite out of the series. Luke is such a great guy trapped in an impossible situation. The characters in this series are all unique but very relatable. I like that the characters make appearances outside of their own book. They are family. This book was an excellent read!

A story of overcoming obstacles and ones true love.

Lauren has had her heartbroken as a teen. Her highschool sweetheart crushed her dreams. Now she is back home helping her friends. And guess who walks in? Will Lauren keep to her plan and stay away?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Please do not read this series out of order. You will be doing yourself and the author a disservice.

This is one of those unexplainable series that took me on such an emotional ride. There is so much realism in the writing that it was like watching relationships my friends are involved in. There are so many personalities and events that take place in this series. Like I’ve said in a previous review, this is not all unicorns and glittery rainbows, it’s raw and emotional and real. I know I’m repeating myself.

Told in dual POV, we are invited in to understand both sides of the story. As a result of that, opinions of events changed as the series continued.

A multi-dimensional story with complex characters, I definitely recommend reading this series.

Flesh and Bone (Blood of Kaos Book 3) by Nesa Miller was a romantic novel with aspects that are intense, thrilling along with adventurous and alluring with all the elements to keep your interest. This story is a strong creative work by the author, standing alone – as well as – part of the series. I have not previously read a book by this author, but I definitely need to add them to my must read more in the future. I found the pace of the story kept up with my interest, along with keeping me thoroughly engaged. The characters were thoroughly laid out. The degree of working pieces within this novel were always moving, creatively so. Highly recommend.

Reset to One (Paranormal Talent Agency Book 2) by Heather Silvio
4 Stars

Another murder needs to be solved in Las Vegas. This time vampire Evie Jones steps up to the plate. Life gets boring when you are immortal so Evie keeps it exciting by being an actress. She meets another actor at a workshop named Ryan, who’s friend is accused of murder. Is the search for the truth or her attraction to Ryan motivating Evie to help him? Things get complicated when her ex-husband is implicated as well. Can they solve the murder? Will Ryan stick around after he finds out that she’s a vampire?

This is a cute romance fraught with suspense and danger. Though this is book two, it can be read as a stand-alone. Evie was a secondary character in the first book and I’m happy that she got her own story in this book. The story is a fun, light read filled with mystery, intrigue and of course, romance. I’m really enjoying this series and so will you. I’m looking forward to book three.

Garrett (Dark Water Security #2)Garrett by Madison Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second story in the “Dark Water Security” series and can be read as a stand-alone.

Dark Water Security is a firm that employees veteran’s to provide security for a variety of clients. Garrett is one of the newer employees. Hope is a live-in house manager who has recently overcome an event in her past that caused her to withdraw from life for a while.

This book was pretty clear cut. Each character is introduced with enough background that you know who everyone is. There is a little bit of suspense in this tale and the story is written in such a way that I didn’t “figure it out” before I was meant to.

I look forward to reading Cole’s story next.

Reset To One was an amazing read and can be read as a standalone. The book follows Evie and Ryan as they attempt to help his friend Jim who is accused of murdering his wife. The two enlist the help of Catherine who was introduced in the first book of this series. They audition for roles in a new movie to come out in order to get closer to the possible perp. This novel was an easy read and I loved the romance that developed between the main characters as the story progressed. Evie has to hide the fact that she is a Vampire while working with Ryan to figure out the murder.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great read about family. Dar, the High Lord of Kaos and a powerful warrior, has been kidnapped by the enemy and taken to another realm. Desperate to save him, his wife Etain and her friends risk everything to get him out alive. But they underestimate the demon and their plan goes wrong. Can they make it out alive and stop the demons?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well characters like Etain brave and reckless but still compassionate underneath or Dar as sarcastic but also kind underneath. Great cast of supporting characters like the gruff Inferno or the eager Taurnil or the kind hearted Spirit. Wonderful villain in Dathmet that will send shivers uo your spine with his love of cruelty wonderfully written.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel in particular with the contrasting reds and blacks of the castle and the skulls on the turrets to give it a gothic grotesque feel perfectly written. Or the forest with its shadows and tall trees and sense of magic. Or the detail put into Etains wings with bright silvers and feathers and talons wonderfully written for a sense of awe and wonder and power. Or the weapons room made to be deadly but also beautiful at the same time perfectly written.
A brilliant addition to the fantasy genre with a family of characters that think and feel aand are more than just warriors. I loved the sense of word building in the novel with different races and people with their own rules and societies and languages and unique magical abilities alongside realms and portals expanding on it. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

Wow! I can’t believe this story. These characters are something else. So much emotion and pain written here. The author didn’t care how you felt. The author just wanted you to feel what the characters felt. To experience what they felt when their world was falling apart. Darren is an incredible man to give as much as he had. He was not perfect but he was close. Part of me wants him to leave Lou. She definitely doesn’t deserve him. He did wrong but her transgressions were worse. I have read the growth and character through every book. And I’m ready for something amazing to happen. These characters have changed so much and it’s amazing how the author achieved their success. I really enjoyed the writing style.

Devil’s Backbone by T. Birmingham
My rating: 4 out of 5 stars

What a great read. The characters were all fantastically written, the story line, interesting and entertaining and the fantastical world they live in, wonderful.

Tess and Ben are such a great couple. She is self conscious about her appearance because of scars she receives from her family years prior. Tess is a strong, courageous woman but a little on the shy side. I feel like she doesn’t think she is an asset to anyone in her life, but in reality everyone loves her and appreciates all that she does at The Lodge and Ben thinks she is beautiful regardless of her appearance and wants to be with her.

It is aggravating that Ben doesn’t just fess up and tell Tess his feelings until he is pushed to when he has to move back “home” to protect the people of the Lodge, especially Tess. It is a relief when the two finally share their attraction and feelings for one another and team up to find the murderer.

This is a good read, I enjoyed the action and the love connection between the two main characters. I would definitely recommend this book to any paranormal lover. This book can be read as a stand alone, but why would you when the other books in the series are fantastic as well?

I give Turning the Tide (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 5) by Phoebe Alexander, 5 stars.

This book was absolutely amazing! I originally picked this series up because I live on the Eastern Shore and let’s face it, there are not many fiction books about this area. But I was pleasantly surprised at just how good each book has been. This being book five in the series, there is a potential for things to get stale, it happens in some series. But that is not the case here. The main characters are so great, you can’t help but love them. You can really understand where Luke is coming from and you can understand why he falls for Connie. There are many emotions as well as surprises you will not see coming. I could not put the book down!

This a romance with some hot and heavy scenes and with the series revolving around a swingers club, so if you are not opened-minded, this may not be the book for you. But of you are, you need to pick up this book as well as the whole series. The author is exceptional and weaves a wonderful story you won’t want to escape from.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Pandora’s Price is the third book in the Hart & Cole series by Sacha T. Y. Fortune. As this is the third book, I would highly recommend reading the other two books first. Ms. Fortune has a knack for getting me hook on the first book and I could not wait to read the other two books. There is action, mystery, plus all the emotions that go into a marriage. Her characters are complex and really easy to like one minute and dislike the next minute. I have tried to read this story and be one with Luisa to see what she was seeing and feeling. I felt all the raw emotions of Luisa. I could not help but to bond with Luise, I felt like she was a friend and tried to talk to her (even though she could not hear me) about what I was seeing. There is so much more to this story I want to leave this up to you to go through all the emotions, thrills, and chills on your own.

Thank you Sacha T.Y. Fortune this was an awesome series.

Rafferty by A.S. Roberts is the second book in the Default Distraction series. This book can be read as a stand-alone however, usual from most books, this one does recover scenes from book one but from a different perspective. For this reason I would recommend reading them in order.
I enjoyed every bit about this book – from the character, to the story to the depth of the emotions you can feel in each page. Books about a band aren’t normally my favourite as I find them to be quite predictable and one dimensional but that is definitely not the case with this series. The author has done a great job of creating a story so heartwarming and emotional that you can’t stop reading. I was rooting for Rafferty and Lauren all the way through.
I am very excited to see what else is to come from this series.

To be honest, I don’t know what I expected from this book. Something to take me to another place for a few hours maybe, but what I got was so much more. I found myself fully engrossed in this story and with the characters who broke my heart a few times. Fortitude is defined as courage during pain or adversity, this books shows what fortitude looks like in a way that is relatable and imaginable. Claire is one of the most amazing characters I have read in a long time, she shows what all good heroines should; empathy, bravery, and of course fortitude. I don’t usually read books like this, from this time period because it just breaks my heart but this is a great example of why we should be reading this material. This opened my eyes to not only this incredible writer but to a topic that I’m eager to dive into more. I am looking forward to seeing just how far Carrie Dalby will go in the book world.

Miss Fortune has a beautiful way with words. This series is such a griping read. I’ve been hooked since book one and I’m dying for more. DEFINITELY don’t read as a standalone. There is so much story in the other books that they need to be read in order. This author has made my top must read list!

This is an good story. For the second in the series it can be read as a stand alone. The writing was nice but seemed too focused the relationship. Meaning I really wish there was more Interaction between a few of the characters(from Dark waters or even Abby) instead of the day to day of the two MC. I was hoping for some bonding between the girls (Emily and Hope). Or even from the guys at the Security firm.

Hope has had a struggle the last few years. After a lovely night she disappears on Garrett. Garrett seems like a super sweet guy and has some great qualities. He’s looking to recover that lost love. Once he sees Hope he wonders if they can make it work. This is a second chance story.

I so wanted more of each of these stories, there just wasn’t enough time to build the connection to these characters as I would have liked. I did though enjoy the storylines and the writing in both stories was smooth and very easy to follow its just that they were both so short that everything happened a bit too fast for me.

Both stories were unique in their own right and I read both of them in one sitting. It was absolutely enough though for me to want more from both authors. This was my first read by D’Ann Lindun and I want to say my 3rd or 4th by Melissa Keir and I will be looking into more from both of them.

I do recommend anyone wanting to read something quick that they should pick this up, definitely fast moving and will leave you craving more.

Ack!! I need the next book like right now!!

This story broke my heart, there’s so much going on and I love the way this story is being told. I can’t even imagine where this story will go but I know I can not wait to find out.

This felt real, the kind of thing that could happen any day and knowing that made this story hit home that much more. Her time hops were placed perfectly and very easy to follow and definitely strengthened the connection I felt to both Emily and Jaxon. I sincerely felt the emotions being portrayed in this book.

I was so angry with Emily through most of this story, even after what she went through, not trusting Jaxon was her biggest downfall in my opinion and his faith in her even after the decisions she made literally broke my heart.

I can’t wait to get my hands on the rest of this story, I read this in one sitting and it flowed perfectly. This is my 2nd or 3rd book by this author and I’ve loved every one of them and have definitely become a forever fan of Aleya Michelle.

Loved It now give me more!!!! LOL

Turning the Tide by Phoebe Alexander a five-star read that will turn you. This is the fifth novel in the Eastern Swingers series, but they can all be read as stand-alone, they truly can as I have read most of them out of sequence. Luke is a very deep character and one that will at times make you question what you believe but then also feel a deep sympathy for him. Connie was a great woman, she makes reading her story easy. This is a complex love story, and as with true love, it never goes smoothly, just creates more passion and drama. The question is will it create a happy ending? That’s something I can’t tell you as you need to read this amazing story to find out.

Vantage Point (A Gray Ghost Novel Book 4)
By Amy McKinley

Vantage Point is the fourth book in Amy McKinley’s Gray Ghost series. As with the other books in this series Vantage Point is full of action, suspense and a little romance. This is one awesome series that everyone needs to read. Vantage Point centers around the wonderful Hawk, Hawk is of course part of the Gray Ghost team, as with all the members of the team they all see value in each other and have some sort of brotherhood happening. So anyway, what we have in this book is Hawk, he is worried about his neighbor Stella, whose brother has got her life into danger. This book for me was fast paced especially in the romance department. Don’t be fooled that the romance is a bed of roses as there is danger all around for Hawk and Stella. Will they or their romance survive this danger? I can not rave about this series enough, start at the beginning of the series and enjoy.
