Proper Ink (Jaded Lily Book 2) By: Zeia Jameson 5 out of 5 stars
The story Proper Ink (Jaded Lily Book 2) by Zeia Jameson is a romance book that I loved reading. It pulled me in from the very beginning and I found myself lost in the story. I loved reading about Luca and Kerry. Luca is a man who knows tattoos. He has been building his reputation in his business. He doesn’t date. Then he meets Kerry. Kerry is an event planner and good at it. Although it may be hectic at times, she finds her job exhilarating and rewarding. Then she meets Luca. They agree not to label themselves; they are just hanging out. What happens when emotions begin to grow between them? What does the future hold for them? Will they take a chance on each other? Read this book to find out. This story has romantic scenes that make the temperature in the room rise. There are moments that are sad and others that are heartwarming. I grew to care about Luca and Kerry with each chapter that I read. I couldn’t help but want them to be happy. I enjoyed reading about the additional characters that are in the story. Some of them are familiar as they have been brought forward from the first book. Don’t miss out on a wonderfully written book that has unforgettable characters. I would highly recommend reading this story.

Irresistible Heroes is a superb Anthology of stories from some very talented, best-selling and award-winning authors. The stories are all so great- all quite individual to the author, but all are based on the same theme- which is “Irresistible Heroes”. We get to meet all kinds of heroes, and heroines- from cops, to fire fighters, Military personnel, Veterans, and Doctors- there’s a hero here that is bound to capture your attention, and a piece of your heart in the process. This Anthology is made up of eight wonderful stories that are all really well written, interesting, engaging, and entirely enjoyable. The stories are:
Two Heart Unlikely Heroes By: Tamara Ferguson
This was definitely one of my favourites of the collection. I love Ms. Ferguson’s books and have read pretty much everything she has written. This is the ninth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Series- but you don’t need to have read the rest of the series to enjoy this story- as it reads wonderfully well as a standalone. But having said that, you, like me will probably develop a bit of an addiction to her stories and get the desire to explore the rest of her books. Something I have discovered now I have read a lot of her books is the way Ms. Ferguson has cleverly built a bigger picture, a cast of believable and endearing characters, and a supportive community in which to base her stories (for the most part). Everything comes to life, and through each book you begin to see more interconnected details, characters, and situations. This book is one of my favourites of her, bringing suspense, terrorists, danger and intrigue to Crystal Rock- as we follow Captain Samantha Caldwell and AFOSI Agent Captain Ben Nash on a bit of an adventure as the danger mounts and they try to piece everything together. As always, Ms. Ferguson doesn’t disappoint!
Simply Love By: Natalie Ann
This is the third book in the Love Collection series by Natalie Ann. It is such a sweet, and emotive story that had me rooting for the characters right from the get go. Gemma and Blake have both endured quite a lot of emotional pain in their lives. So, will they finally find the new beginning and second chance they have both searching for? This book is really worth the read to find out!
She’s Having a Baby By: Suzanne Jenkins
Oh Ms. Jenkins you’ve done it again! Another great read- but I highly recommend having a box of tissues on hand, as this story will give your emotions a bit of a battering. This is the first book in Ms. Jenkins new series, The Saints of San Diego. With friendship, family, duty, action, drama, love, loss, heartache, pain, joy, and new beginnings- this story may be short, but it packs quite a punch. We meet our main characters, but also a whole cast of wonderful secondary characters- a family of heroes who completely won me over. What a memorable way to start off a new series- and if this is any example, the rest of the series is set to be just as great! I can’t wait!
Johnny’s Girl By: Cynthia Cooke
This is the second book in the Deadly Secrets series by Cynthia Cooke. Full of intrigue, mystery, danger, suspense, action, drama, and more- this romantic suspense had me hooked right from the get-go. This is my first read by Ms. Cooke and I really didn’t know what to expect going in, but now I am happy to say that I will definitely be exploring more of Ms. Cooke’s work in the future. This is one of the main reasons I love reading anthologies, because it’s a chance to discover new authors to add to your TBR, and therefore more books to explore!!! WIN-WIN!! Well done!
Fire Me Up By: Alicia Street
We meet a hunky firefighter looking for a fresh start and a shy schoolteacher who shakes things up and brings a bit of a spark to his life. This was such a quick and easy read- a sweet story with a witty, captivating (second chance) romance…. which also has an emotional element to it too. Well worth the read!
Seal of Refuge By: Alyssa Bailey
Who doesn’t love a sexy Navy SEAL- so add a unlucky in love school teacher, a few surprises, a little bit of drama, and a wonderful romance- and this story really takes off. I didn’t expect to like this story as much as I did- they characters really won me over. A great story to start off Ms. Bailey’s Guardian’s of Refuge series. I for one, can’t wait for the next instalment!
Never Gone By: Stephanie Queen
This is the first book in the Zero to Hero Series by Stephanie Queen. Another 5 Star read in this exciting collection. I love Ms. Queen’s books and was really excited to see it was the start to a new series. Zero Go Team is made up of so many heroes, I can’t wait to follow all the character’s stories as they release. As expected from Ms. Queen, this story is really well written, sexy, spicy, intriguing, and original. The characters pulled me into the story, and I became completely invested in them and their story- devouring every word! I loved meeting Joe and Mae- and I can’t wait for more.
Handle With Care By: Patrice Wilton
Handle With Care is the second book in the Wounded Warrior Series by Patrice Wilson. Shane Dawson was a medic serving in Iraq when he is captured and tortured. He may be home from the war, but he left a piece of himself behind, trading it for a whole lot of pain and some difficult personal demons. Lauren Reynolds is a skilled ER doctor- a single mother with a young son who has ADHD. Things haven’t been easy since her husband died, but she and her son Josh make a pretty good team. Meeting Shane sets them both on a path they never expected. Taking a chance on love doesn’t come easy, or without some risk. What happens you ask? Well you really should read all the emotional details for yourself…. it’s definitely worth your time. A story of trauma, pain, addiction, struggles, emotion, friendship, trust, romance, spirit, redemption, and love.
As you can see, we meet a variety of charming heroes who will all inspire, captivate, and entertain you. They will entice you into the book and keep you there, avidly turning the pages to follow each as their story unfolds. So, if you are looking for a book that is full of heroes, romance, and stories that you can connect with- then this is definitely the anthology for you…… And hello, eight books for the price of one…. WINNING!!!!

My One Love (The Brothers of Camelot Book 2) By: Necie Navone 5 out of 5 stars
The story My One Love (The Brothers of Camelot Book 2) by Necie Navone is a romantic suspense book. It pulls you in from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go until you have finished the last page. There are times I was turning pages wanting to know what was going to happen next. Other times I could feel the romance and strong emotions between the two main characters. I loved reading about Lexy and Grayson. Lexy is a strong, independent, determined, and well-trained young woman. She has had a strong attraction to Grayson since she first saw him. Grayson also feels a strong attraction to Lexy. He has never found another that made him feel the way she did. They have not seen each other for years. What will happen when Lexy and Grayson find each other again? What does the future hold for them? Read this book to find out. This is a story that has some romantic moments that make the temperature in the room rise. I grew to care about Lexy and Grayson with each chapter that I read, and I wanted them to find happiness. I enjoyed reading about the bantering that goes back and forth between them. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters and their interactions with Lexy and Grayson. This is a wonderful story with unforgettable characters. I would highly recommend reading it.

The Paranormal Talent Agency is a great series to read from the very first book. Heather Silvio is such a creative writer. She has kept this series fun and interesting. I love this series because it is simple and enjoyable. Jumping the Shark has a demon mayor of Las Vegas who teams up with Liam Collins an angel to catch a being who is fighting to take over the secret paranormal world. In the process of that battle, Barbara (demon mayor) is accused of a murder. Will a demon and angel work together to save their world? Can Barbara be cleared of the murder charged?

Blood Relations by Lonna Enox is the next book in the Sorrel Janes Mystery series. In my opinion the book does need to be read in order as it follows on from the first book. We are thrown straight back into Sorrel’s life, almost like the first book never ended. It was that easy to fall right back into her story. The writing draws you back into the fold with ease. The characters were just as interesting as in the first book and the storyline was intriguing and mysterious. Another very well written book.

Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington is a romance for the ages. Colbie is an amazing character who goes through some life-changing events. Will she still hear the music in her heart? I was taken in by her story and didn’t want to put this down. I was really blown away by the amount of attention and detail the author put into this story and think many will enjoy and appreciate the work she has done. What has come out of it is a beautiful story which shows the challenges that can be thrown at us and how Colbie overcomes her fears and insecurities to find her happy. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Fisher Men X My Heart is the first book in The Fisher Men series by Rebel Nicks O’Dey. All I can say is if the rest of this series is anything as good as this book, then we are in for one hell of a ride. Can I also mention that this book has absolutely nothing to do with fishing. The Fisher Men are 4 adorable brothers with the surname Fisher. This book had me captured from the very beginning and didn’t let me go. 4 brothers: Morgan, Connor, Xander and Zack are there to protect their neighbour Samantha after a terrifying incident. They will do anything to protect her and have a pact never to date her. The all love her in their own way and she loves and needs them all in return BUT she is in love with one of them and now that she’s older and has graduated college she’s out to get her man. But which one has she chosen? I have to say that I adored Samantha and all 4 brothers. They were all so different and each had their own amazing qualities. You won’t be able to put this book down, firstly wanting to know which brother she has chosen and then, how can they have a relationship without breaking the Fisher Men rules. I loved that the author gave forewarning of a possible trigger in the story and also highlighted where the trigger was so that the reader could skip this part if they felt the need to do so. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for this amazing family of brothers in the remaining books in the series.

TWO HEARTS UNDER FIRE (Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Book 8) by Tamara Ferguson
5 out of 5 stars
While on the run, something crazy happens along the way. Can two wounded hearts under fire survive love?
Two Hearts under fire is the 8th book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior series written by Ms. Ferguson and I loved it. This book/series is awesome we have romance, intrigue, suspense, and we even get to see a few couples from past books. The characters are well written I just loved Russ and Claire.
Airman Russ Quinlan’s team were targeted and captured during transport in Iraq three years ago. When Russ discovers the only other survivor was left for dead after a brutal assault by insurgents, he realizes his covert mission had resulted in deadly consequences, and someone was trying to frame him.

Aiko is the first book in The Heartstrings Series written by Brooke May and it’s the first book that I have read by this author but it won’t be my last. The story line is very different which I like and the characters are well written. I loved the little quirks they have.
Aiko is back after a forty-year exile. She has been given another opportunity to help humanity. Alejandro Gomez is everything a woman could dream of in looks. His romantic abilities gyrate to the beat of mariachi. He is also Aiko’s new assignment.
Aiko is the worst cupid she is responsible for extermination of civilizations, plagues, and possibly the worst tragedy in human history may rest on her tiny shoulders.
Can Aiko help Alejandro find love or will she create another deadly consequence?
I simply enjoyed this story and I’m looking forward in reading the next book in this series?

The Fish That Climbed a Tree By Kevin Ansbro. This is my first read by this author and I found it to be a very interesting story. The author did a great job of writing something unique and engaging. I like the authors writing style it’s a good mix of humor and serious without feel too heavy. The characters are complex and different from other books. This book is a perfect example of don’t judge a book by the cover , mind you I don’t dislike the cover I just almost passed this one by but am trying to open my reading to things I’d normally pass. And I’m so glad I listened to my “don’t judge a book by the cover .” Talk because I definitely would have been missing out on a unique story by a new to me author. I’m giving this story a four star review and recommend it. Excited to see what the author offers readers next.

Scarlet Fever: A Crime Thriller by David Stever. I loved this book. Its similar to the old PI novels with an old grouchy PI and a beautiful lady. This is the story of Ex Cop Johnny Delarosa who is now a Private Detective and has pretty much seen and heard it all. One day a beautiful read headed mystery woman, Claire Dixon walks into his bar and gives him $20,000 as a retainer to find 2 million dollars that was due her Mom. Only thing is the money is missing Mob Money because her mother was married to a Mob guy. When Johnny starts looking for the money lots of shady characters come out and dealing with the Mob was not in his plans. He’s got to find this money because he’s so attracted to Claire and wants to prove himself to her. Will he find the money before he loses his life and will Claire share his attraction? Read Scarlet Fever to find out!

Yet again another fantastic 5 star read from the talented Ms McKinley! I’ve read quite a few books by this author now, so many that I don’t even bother to read the blurb anymore because I’m confident I will love whatever I read and as expected Shattered Melody was no exception. This may have been a novella but it definitely was not short on content! I was hooked from the very beginning especially as the action started straight away! I was on the edge of my seat from the very beginning and there were some almighty twists and turns! I fell in love with the characters Emma and Reese straight away. The author wrote about them so beautifully and in a way that I really felt a connection to them, I felt like I really knew everything about them. Although I loved Reese, it was Emma that was the character for me in this story; there really was just something about her that drew me to her straight away. A truly amazing read that I highly recommend! I cannot wait (as usual) to read more from Ms McKinley again in the future!
4 stars or 5 stars…I was thinking that the only way this story could have been better is if it had been longer but really then it would have seemed to drag on. This novella was short and to the point. Main character Emma is easy to love, to laugh and cry with. So definitely 5 stars.
The secondary characters of Danny, Reece, Linda and the friends from college are all an intricate part of Emma’s life. They are all suspicious in their dealings with Emma, leaving me guessing right up until the end. I had my doubts that a quick story could have a happy ending but my faith in Amy McKinley never wavered.
The story line was super easy to follow even with the flash backs. Those looks into the past helped explain Emma’s character and feelings so well.
Here’s hoping that these characters will have another adventure…soon.
The Fisher Men X My Heart by Rebel Nicks O’Dey is a lovely romance story and one I really enjoyed. The story kept me glued to the pages and wanting to know what was coming next. It is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. There are just as many heartbreaking and heartwarming moments, one minute I was laughing out loud and the next breath I was in tears. There are some dark moments in the book but there is also light. Yes you will need the story for myself, kind of like unwrapping a christmas present. The bonds and friendships between the characters is one of love and caring and they are also very protective of one they consider their own.
The woman they love and whom they have helped shaped has returned but who will she pick?
I was hooked from the start and look forward to reading more from Rebel.

Aiko (The Heartstrings Series Book 1) by Brooke May is a romantic comedy and a wonderful original idea. Brooke has written a winner with this story that drew me in from the start and I found myself getting lost in the story. You can;t help but fall in love with this cupid as she is unique and I found myself laughing out loud with her antics. Being the worst cupid out of all but is certainly not for the want of trying.
Aiko is once again on an assignment to help Alejandro Gomez find love but nothing ever goes quite like she would like.
You really need to grab a copy of this clever and interesting story. I know you will fall in love with it. I am counting down until I can get a copy of the next book. Well done Brooke.

Shattered Melody by Amy McKinley is a romantic suspense novella. This book is a quick read but it is so good!
Emma lives her life in a remote mountain cabin and prefers it that way after experiencing a tragic event a few years prior. She can’t be too safe so she takes extra precautions to make sure her location isn’t easily identified. She likes to keep people at a distance if she can help it. During a snowstorm, there’s a knock on her door and even though it would go against her better judgement she welcomed her neighbor in and actually decided getting to know him wouldn’t be terrible. She feels she made the right decision trusting Reese until a few weird things start happening. Emma second guesses Reese and isn’t sure what to do. Will Reese be the step Emma needed to reclaim her life or did she make a mistake trusting him?
This book was really enjoyable to read. Definitely some twists that I didn’t expect so once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down!
When Sorrel Janes, photographer, joins an old friend for a week-long birding festival at a wildlife refuge, she expects reminisces, fresh air, and good photos to sell in her gift shop.

He is a loud, coffee drinking, obnoxious cat that helps Mia solve mysteries! They have to careful though, because the case they’re on right now might be Mia’s last one if she doesn’t watch her back!

5 Star The Fisher Men X My Heart (The Fisher Men Book 1) by Rebel Nicks O’Dey The Fisher Men X My Heart ( The Fisher Men book1) by Rebel Nicks O’dey is a wonderfully written book. Once you start reading it you won’t want to put it down till the last page and even then I wanted more. This is my first read by this Author and it’s definitely not my last. I pretty much had my brother picked out from the get go. Find out what happens next when Sam comes home all grown up, and has her sights on one of the brothers. There was times I felt as if I was a on emotional rollercoaster ride and others I was angry. There is a part that could be a trigger. I do highly recommend reading this. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington Four Stars
Michael’s Heart is a beautiful romance by Lori Thomas Harrington. This story had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. This is the first book I have read by this author but definitely won’t be the last. This book tells Colbie’s unique story, and the emotions I felt were off the charts. You definitely need a box of tissue while reading this book. I enjoyed the twist this story takes and the amazing end left me thinking about this book long after I finished reading it. I highly recommend this book.

The Fisher Men X My Heart: Book 1 by Rebel Nicks O’Dey had me from the very beginning. I read a lot and enjoy most of what I read, this book is one of the best books I have read in a while. Not sure what it was that caused such strong feelings but I loved this book.
Samantha grew up with the Fisher boys who lived next door. They went from being the hot boys next door to being her whole world one fateful night. Each one of the boys took care of her in a different way, but one had her heart.
I wasn’t sure which one of the brothers it was going to be for a while but I think she ended up with the right one. If only every girl had a Fisher family next door.
This is the first book I have read by this author, my only regret is not finding her sooner. I have already added her other books to my TBR list, now to find the time to move them up on the list.

You know how sometimes you just want a quick and addicting read without all the extra details that make books longer? SHATTERED MELODY is the perfect book that does just that. It has 1 fade to black sex scene so I could recommend this to my elderly friend’s book club. It has breathtaking suspense, back ground characters who don’t take up any extra time and a clever cat who knows to stay away from the cold.
I read this story in about 30 minutes as it’s only about 60 pages long. Like I said it is quick and right to the point.
I’ve always enjoyed this author’s writing and will continue to read and recommend the stories they write.
Definitely read this quick story, you won’t be disappointed.
Aiko – A Heartstrings Novel by Brooke May was a 4 star read for me. The book was about Cupid and his angels he has chosen to find love for humans. Aiko has had the worst possible luck in helping humans find love. She was recently found in the park watching a man name Alejandro make a fool of himself begging a woman not to walk away from him. Well Aiko is called home by mother who really isn’t her mother but, is Cupid’s right-hand angel who acts like the mother. Brielle is the sweet loving mother figure of the sisters. When Aiko speaks with Briella she finds out she can now take on assignments…her next assignment is Alejandro Gomez. Aiko feels like she is fighting a losing battle with this guy. She has seen him in action and knows this will be a lot of work. Aiko finds two possible women for Al to date. One is a perfect match and the other she is using to show Al the difference. Will Aiko be able to pull this off or will Al end up either with the wrong woman or possibly single? Aiko is being trusted with this task because Cupid and Briella both believe in her.

Aiko ( The Heartstrings Series Book 1) by Brooke May 4 Stars
This was a cute story. I think the concept was very original. It’s about Aiko, who is a Cupid, needing to help Alejandro get together with the woman he is meant to be with. Alejandro, who is very good looking, has no clue when it comes to women. He is Aiko’s first case in forty years. She was exiled because she caused the worst tragedies in human history. Needless to say, this lead to some comical moments. I found the story to be entertaining with the twist of an unsuccessful cupid. The story is fun, light and filled with likeable characters.

Aiko by Brooke May was a sweet and comical quick read! I would give this book a 4 out of 5 stars. I could not stop thinking of Murphy’s Law while reading this book. Anything that could go wrong did go wrong for Aiko and Alejandro. Aiko slowly reveals her past and I could not stop my mind from trying to connect dots. I kept my fingers crossed for Alejandro the whole time!

Scarlet Fever by David Stever is the first book in the Johnny Delarosa Thriller series. David Stever writing style in this book reminded me of an old time thriller where you know what is going to happen but you still can’t believe it happened. His characters are fully developed and has a clout around their personality that he created. The story is a simple story of missing money, mafia, and a detective. Claire wants Johnny to find her the money from her mob-wife mother that was stolen. Will Johnny take the case? Will Claire get what is coming to her nor will everything go wrong? You will be waiting on the edge of your kindle to see how this one ends.

This one is a doozy. The way the story is written and the characters is fantastic.
Colbie dies, and when she does, she meets Michael. When she wakes back up she has to figure out her next steps in life. Colbie starts to struggle with finding her music because of her longing for Michael. Although it is painful for her to leave Michael she can feel him in her heart. He gives her the inspiration to write. Colbie meets another man eventually and starts to develop feelings for him, but in the back of her mind, she can’t forget Michael.
This story has everything you could want in a book, romance, tears and happiness. I would definitely recommend this book!
