The Brass CompassThe Brass Compass by Ellen Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Brass Compass by Ellen Butler is a brilliant example to historical fiction that will draw you in right from the start.
Ellen Butler is an author is have become recently familiar with so I was looking forward to seeing what would come from this book. Full of intrigue and espionage this book absolutely captured my attention immediately. From reading the blurb I wasn’t sure if this was a book I would enjoy but I really don’t know why.
Lily St. James is such a good heroine. She is everything you want the main character to be – interesting, relatable.
I though the author did a great job of building the story up and taking you on a journey. I always enjoy WW11 things and this was done very well. I would definitely recommend this book.

The Brass CompassThe Brass Compass by Ellen Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler is a historical novel entering back during the time of World War II. The spin on this novel is the approach the author took with the novel focused on the heroine: Lily St. James. Ellen Butler was very detailed oriented in this story adding the historical elements into the story line that give the story additional depth along with the strong character development. These parts made the story feel so realistic and truly captivating in reading. The suspense and drama were the epitome of what I was looking for in this novel and the author knocked it out effortlessly. Beautifully written, enjoyed this read.

Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #3) by Manda Mellett – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Devil's Due: Satan's Devils MC Colorado Chapter #3Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #3 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Devil’s Due by Manda Mellett is book three of the Satan’s Devil Colorado Chapter series. This book is such a good addition to the series. There is quite a bit of suspense in this book that you can only truly experience by experiencing it for yourself. I was sucked into this book, these characters and their stories.

These two characters meet in Colorado among less than desirable circumstances and from there, their story unfolds in twists, turns and surprises. I honestly had to keep reading because I needed to know what was going to happen but I definitely wasn’t disappointed. My emotions were all over the place reading this book. I highly recommend this series and definitely this book.

Queen of the Warrior Bees (Natural Forces Book 1) by Jean Gill
4 Stars !!!!
One of the greatest joys in a readers life is finding new authors and new series.
In this book I have found both. This book was a nice breath of fresh air . I found the characters were very well presented and I felt as though I was there amongst them. The author draws you right into the book. I didn’t want to put the book down
I found myself relating to Mielitta the way she felt like a freak. I found the authors style to really draw me into the book more I like how it wasn’t predictable. I found it quite well written and the author draws out the intrigue around Mielitta just enough to keep you at the edge of your seat. I like how she was actually special and that she doesn’t have to fight the citadel alone . I will definitely be reading more from this author and series in the future.

The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler – Review by Erin Wolf

The Brass CompassThe Brass Compass by Ellen Butler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler, 5 stars.

Lily is a young American woman who was lucky enough to be able to travel and study abroad when she was younger. This has taught her many things about Europe, including learning multiple languages. After the unexpected death of her mother and the start or World War II, she is too restless to just stay home. She has the deep need to do more. So she becomes a spy and takes a very dangerous mission. When her contact is compromised, she must run for her life. This involves many things she has never prepared for, but she will do anything to survive and pass on the vital information she has. Not knowing who to trust, she must take risks. Will be able to keep her cover and her wits about her?

This is an incredible historical fiction book set mostly during World War II. There are flashbacks from when Lily was younger, but the present day is during the war. The story is not for the weak of heart, there are some things that happen that may upset some readers. Please keep in mind that the main character is in the heart of this tragic war. That being said, I found this book amazing. I really felt like I was there with her. Lily herself is wonderful too. She grows throughout the story and has a heart of gold. You will experience pretty much every emotion while reading. At the same time, you cannot put it down — you want to see what will happen next and how it will all turn out for Lily. I did not know what to expect when I picked this book up, but I was blown away by how good and descriptive it was.

If you are a fan of historical fiction and strong female characters, this book is for you.

Hidden Magic: A Sanctuary Chronicles NovellaHidden Magic: A Sanctuary Chronicles Novella by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hidden Magic is a novella of the Sanctuary Chronicles series. You can read this without reading the other books, but if you want to get a better feel for the other characters outside of Brant and Kat, I recommend reading the others in the series.

Hidden Magic is a quick read, but it is written in such a way that it feels like a full-length novel. The characters are relatable and the story moves along and a good pace. I liked the way the depth of Brant’s true feelings for Kat just kind of snuck up on him. Unfortunately, it took a tragic event for him to realize just how he felt, but that just made him more determined to make things right.

This is great side story to the series and I enjoyed the read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Matchmaker’s Match (Man’s Best Friend Book 3) by Nicole Flockton is a fun contemporary romance and another great addition to the series. It can also be read as a standalone. The characters are fully developed and are fun and oh so hot, the air was sizzling when they were around each other. They each had things from their past they had to work through and things as a couple but it is such a sweet and interesting read that I read it all in one sitting.

Meredith has just come face to face with the man she never thought she would see again and one that has been relived in her fantasies, but here he is at her best friends wedding.

Linc has returned home after plans fell through. Now he has to rethink his long term goals and apparently that just may include the one woman he can’t get out of his mind and never ever thought would be in his life, but fate might just have other plans.

I highly recommend this book and this series. You know you want to.

A High Price to Pay (The Madeline Dawkins Series Book 2) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Jenni Bishop

A High Price to Pay (Madeline Dawkins, #2)A High Price to Pay by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A High Price to Pay (The Madeline Dawkins Series Book 2) by Cynthia Hamilton has once again cleverly woven threads to give us another thrilling, fast paced,and exciting story that had me on the edge of the seat from start to finish. Murder and mystery, fear and drama, love and hurt were compelling and emotions were running rampant but the story and the plot flowed smoothly. It can be read as a standalone since there is sufficient information from the first book ‘Girl Trap’ to bring you up to speed but I recommend you read it first as it gives you much more depth to the person Madeline is and what she has gone through.

Madeline fights once again for truth and justice as she faces off against the one monster that has haunted her dreams and made her life a living hell. Unfortunately she can’t seem to catch a break when organising a birthday bash which turns into murder and she is once again in the hunt to catch a killer.

Cynthia has infused elements of humor throughout which kept things from getting to dark and provided a laugh.

If you love a good mystery then give this series a go. You will be pleasantly surprised.

There is a common thread of characters through the stories in this series. It is my opinion that you should read the books in order so as not to spoil anything in the future installments – the series is worth it.

My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hidden Magic: A Sanctuary Chronicles Novella by India Kells was a fast past, engaging read, that had me hooked.

This quick short read is packed full of action, romance, emotions, growth and of course, magic. It hooked me right away, and I dove right into this little wonder. As this is a side story to the main series, it can be read as a standalone. So don’t worry about spoilers or feeling lost. As someone who follows this series, it brought me new characters to grow and love, and old ones I have missed. It was a good combo and made me remember why I love this series so much.

Overall this story is fresh, original, and rich with clean creative detail, that just gets your mine racing. I loved the romance aspect, as well as the personal growth both MC’s go through. Again though, our male MC, was a little to over protective for me, and it’s something I have picked up on in this series, but in regards to the others, Brant isn’t as bad. Kat is a fun, strong character that you can’t help but fall for. You get swept up in her magic, and as much as you want to help you can’t. There are some good feels kickers in here, so be warned.

On that note, as this is a short read, and not to risk spoilers, I’m going to leave you with my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Happy Reading

The story The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series by Ashley Pagano is a supernatural thriller that I loved reading. It pulls you in right from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. I found myself lost in the storyline and also reading about the characters. I loved reading about Ommity and Link. Ommity is a newcomer to The Soppronaturale. She is intelligent and independent. She also is able to control and offensively manipulate the four elements. She has now met Link. I found myself really liking the character of Link and found myself caring about him and also Ommity with each chapter that I read. Will they be able together to defeat the Gauntlet? Read this book to find out. This story has supernatural characters, magic, and danger. There are other characters that are introduced and interact with Ommity and Link. Each has their own part to play in the story. There is action as well as suspense, intense emotions, and dialogue. It is a book that I would highly recommend reading.

It is a story that I found myself captivated by both the storyline and the characters. It drew me in from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until I had finished the final page. I loved reading about the character of Mielitta. She is a young girl who finds herself in the forbidden Forest where her scent angers thousands of bees. She survives the attack, however, has changed. Mielitta is someone that I found others look down on. She doesn’t seem to have a place in the Citadel where she lives. I grew to care about Mielitta with each chapter that I read. She is also a character that doesn’t dismiss when new experiences happen to her. She tries to understand them. There is a rift that is widening between The Forest and The Citadel. What does the future hold? What does the future hold for Mielitta? Read this book to find out. I have always been in awe of authors that write fantasy stories. They create new worlds with their own rules and guidelines. This book is a perfect example of why I love fantasy books. My hat off to the author for creating a tale that is not only fun to read but was thoughtful as well. I enjoyed reading about the additional characters. Some of them are complex and I wasn’t quite sure what their motives were. Others were very upfront as to their agenda. Don’t miss out reading an amazing story. Highly recommended.

The story Kingdom of War (Kingdom Journals Volume 4) by Tricia Copeland is a paranormal/fantasy book. It is a story that once I started, I found myself lost in both the storyline and the characters.

Hunter also believes that there is a dark part of himself that he always must be on guard against. He feels the weight of responsibility. Will Hunter and those he works with be able to triumph over the growing evil? What does the future hold for them? Read this book to find out. There are times I was turning pages wondering what was going to happen next.

The story The Fish That Climbed a Tree by Kevin Ansbro is a book that I enjoyed reading. It is a story that is interesting and intriguing with characters that I found to be unforgettable and come alive on the pages. I enjoyed reading about Reverend Ulysses Drummond and his son, Henry. Reverend Drummond is brutally murdered and then finds himself on a journey in the afterlife. Henry is a character that loves books, loves to write, and has a kind heart. I loved Henry’s character as even as the world holds those who are manipulative and just plain evil his actions are one that would rather help someone than hurt them. What does the afterlife hold for Reverend Drummond? What does life hold for Henry? Read this book to find out. This story has times when I was wondering what was going to happen next. It also has characters that I would put in two different categories. One set of characters are helpful and good, the others are selfish, and I would call them “the bad guys.” Each one has their own part in the story, and it would not be the same reading experience without any of them. There is intense dialogue. There are moments that touched my heart and others that made me take a pause and think. Don’t miss out on a wonderful story that will catch your attention and I was not able to put down until the final page. Highly recommended.

The story Children Of The Future by Jane Suen is a book that I found imaginative and interesting. It is what I would call a short story or novella.

He is quite concerned about the missing children and goes out to search for them along with Billy, the one child that he has found hidden in a cabinet. Will Telly and Billy find the children? Read this book to find out. The story has an atmosphere of mystery and I found myself on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. While the story is a bit shorter than some, I found myself identifying with the characters. I enjoyed many of them that are introduced and how they interact with Telly.

Romance and suspense and a whole lot of bodyguards. No spoilers here, you need to read it to believe it.

Sasha Koslov is a Ballerina from Russia. She is talented as well as a strong willed woman. When she finds herself in trouble, in comes Jay the head honcho with an elite security team. Not where he was supposed to be, Jay takes the woman and offers her protection. He really has no clue who she is, until trouble comes knocking at his door.

Via Mari has done it again. This story is a quick read. Only because once you start, you can’t put it down. It is full of action as well as a great romance story. I love her characters!! Jay and Sasha are both trying not to fall for the other. This story did not end like I had anticipated, I was wrong every time I thought I knew what would happen, I was wrong. I LOVE this series. Not for those under 18 due to adult theme.

Saint Code: Lost: Book Four of the Lucky Devil Series was a good 4 star read.

I was pulled right in and read this pretty quickly. St. Augustine is a very strong character and knows how to take care of herself. This is a genre I don’t read often but I really enjoyed it.

When St. Augustine takes on a new job from Orange lady, things get really strange. Will she be successful or with things take a twist in a different direction?

There are several twists and turns that will keep you guessing as to what’s coming next. We get danger, mystery, action and so much more. Megan Mackie has some great detail in this story, you feel like your right there. This book can be read as a stand alone but I would suggest reading from the beginning. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story.

As soon as I started reading this story I was hooked, I was brought into a world that I couldn’t get out of till I reached the end.

As much as she tried, she felt too alone. Juliette decided to go back to the Bayou; back to a place she could remember that she called home. Her friend sent Sawyer to pick her up and the connection is instant.

Sawyer is another sexy, alpha biker with a heart of gold. He meets Juliette and the chemistry blows him away. Though he’s been through a slew of bad relationships, he knows Juliette is different. He also knows that she’s hiding something. After a few attempts on her life, Juliette is forced to come clean. To put it lightly, Sawyer was not impressed.

The story is filled with twists and turns, suspense and romance. I loved this book and believe you will too.
