Rule is the first book in the Larussio Legacy series. While this book is the beginning of a new series, it does mention characters from related series. You don’t have to read the others to pick up on what is going on, but it would be helpful to so that you get a better foundation for the characters that are carrying over.
Rule is full of suspense, intrigue, danger, and of course, steamy romance. I don’t want to give away the story so I won’t say too much more, only that you need to read it to find out how the twists and turns play out! This book makes for a great break from reality for a bit.

There is a lot to say about Somebody in the Neighborhood by Judy Moore, that follows the story of Dawn’s life after suffering the loss of her aunt, Amy. Dawn, much like her aunt, is an eccentric, “born to late”, wild card. Seeking independence from a her seemingly suffocating parents, Dawn moves to florida.
This book is honestly ranked in my top 10 reads, Judy doesn’t miss a single detail! Her story unfolds beautifully from beginning to end, and is a definite must read! A five star rating for a 5 star book!

Rule (The Larussio Legacy Book 1) by Via Mari was an excellent first book for this series. Having read several other books by this author, I am very excited to see where this one goes. I loved the storyline and felt it had great detail. I also loved the various characters and the different roles they played in the story’s romance theme. The storyline was easy to follow and fun. It moved easy from one scene to the next. I look forward to the next book.

Hennessey on the Rocks by Monica DeSimone is a wonderful story and I read in one sitting. It is a story that will tug on your heart strings but will also make you laugh out loud as it is a very emotive tale. The characters are so easy to love and through Monica’s writing you can easily imagine who they are and get carried away with them on their journey. It is a second chance love story but it is a refreshing and originals storyline. It seemed to be professionally edited. I really enjoyed how this story carried me away into its world.
Charlie and Johnnie have always loved each other ever since they met as children but sometimes love is not enough, not when demons of one’s past get in the way. Johnnie has always been the darker person fighting his demons and always the one to take but when Charlie is down for the count he is the one that needs to pick up the pieces. However there is one secret that could keep them apart.
Abbie is a precocious 3 year old that will knock your socks off. She is a force of nature and had me laughing out loud.

Singles: And Other Singularities (The Woman Scientist Trilogy 2- The Italian Saga) by Gaia B Amman starts of slow, I am not sure why, but it always takes me ages to get into these books, but I do enjoy them in the end. The characters always make me want to slap them for putting up with their boss and for the way some of these men treat women. But I always end up enjoying the story.
Leda is once again back at the lab doing what she loves and trying to work out her place in the world and those within it. I love her conversations with the Old Man, they make me laugh. I am glad that she is seeing that she needs to find herself before hooking up with a man again. She is a very complex woman with her emotions, and it makes me want to hug her and shake her at the same time and tell her to loosen up and stop being so grumpy. Any way there are lots of ups and downs for all the characters as they struggle with their lives and the different cultures they are faced with and not to mention the boss from hell. I would love to see what karma brings that woman, nasty woman.
If you have enjoyed the other books you will like this one.

Amy’s Santa: Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #1 by Manda Mellett. So honestly I wish I could reread this all over for the first time again, because I am so sad I’ll never have that again. But I will reread this book over and over. Once again this author gave me everything I could have possibly wanted. Characters that completely hooked me and a storyline that just had me sinking in and never wanting to come out. This story may not be for the faint hearted it’s got some dark points that aren’t for everyone but it adds to the storyline. This author writes so many emotions into a story and I as the reader felt every single one. I’m already a huge fan of this new series and can’t wait for more. Well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. Five stars all the way and highly recommended!

5 Star Recall: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 6) by Meghan O’Flynn is a murder/ suspense that will have you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what happens next. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn’t put it down till I finished. I highly recommend reading the first five books in this series if you haven’t already. You won’t be disappointed. Detective Petrosky is back at it again, when a councilman’s son is murdered. But problem is things aren’t adding up at the crime scene. Find out what happens next in this absolute must read. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

When it comes to the Testament of Feats Book of Sorrows (Book 2), I was completely blown away, more so than I was with the first one. K.H. Jones not only took an original idea and made it into something, but in turn owned it. I was amazed with the first book, but this one took the cake. Following Scream on his quest to find the missing Ranger, as we know in the world of fantasy, a quest never turns out as easy as it seems. Such as the saying goes “Life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans.” This was no exception. The level of emotions I felt while reading and following along were off the charts, often times a book can say “Sorrow” but will ultimately fall flat, this ‘Book of Sorrows’ did not fall short and there was sorrow, as well as adventure, suspense, romance, and, my personal favorite, twists and turns. I recommend this series, and especially this book to anyone who loves Fantasy, especially Dark Fantasy, and brilliant Original Ideas. 5 out of 5 stars!

Oh my word! I was terrified to read this because I do not do ghosts well but I am SO glad I did! This was hands down the best book I have read all year. Incredible writing, rich characters, surprising plot points, and a feeling of absolute realism are woven throughout this entire book. I can not recommend it enough! I am already hooked and can’t wait to read the next. Absolute perfection. 5 stars.

This is the first book I have read from this author and wow I was blown away. I fell in love with her writing style right away. I love mystery and romance but she has exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book in the Maggie Trilogy and it was a great way to start an addicting series. I could not put this book down for anything. It only took me a few hours to devour this awesome story.
Naomi is an author that is looking for her next best seller. She just can’t find a muse that she is falling in love with. Naomi goes out to do some thinking and she finds herself in a cemetery. She sees a grave that catches her eye and she feels an instant connection with this spirit. Naomi reads the name Maggie and she is intrigued by what happened to her. Naomi finds herself in a love story herself with two men that she can’t stop thinking about. She has the dark and gorgeous Ryan and the hot single dad Bryce. Naomi is torn because they are both great guys but which one is right for her? Also as she figures out the truth about Maggie danger comes to her who can she trust more Ryan or Bryce?
“Maggie” by Mya O’Malley will have you questioning whether ghosts are real or not. I found the premise of this story to be fascinating. Our main character, Naomi, is inspired to write a novel about a woman named Maggie who is buried in the cemetery behind Naomi’s home. Naomi believes Maggie has an untold story about her death and begins seeing her ghost.
As I was reading, there were a few things that bothered me. For example, everyone seems to believe in Naomi’s story about seeing the ghost of Maggie without much skepticism. Also, at times the dialogue seemed unnatural. However, this was an easy and enjoyable read. I would recommend it to anyone who likes paranormal romance.
Tanuja Ramachandran:Hunter-Seeker by Kumar Sivarsubramanian was quite a surprise. I have to confess when I first started reading it, I thought this is the craziest thing I’ve ever read, and I must say I had my doubts about it. As it turns out it was crazy good. Our main character Tanuja is one tough gal, made even tougher by the fact that she has narcolepsy. Not what you would expect by an ultra-bad James Bond type gal. Tragic thing have happened in her life that drives her, and she is teamed up with her brother Max to do a job. It is a very touching note to the story that no matter how far out there his sister is Max believes there is redemption for her. To sum it all up, this was a story well worth my time and I think I want to follow Tanuja on more of her adventures.
Rule is the first book in our amazing Via Mari’s new series called Larussio Legacy. I hesitate to call it a spin-off of her Prestian series as Larussio is Katarina’s family and for the ones who are in the same boat with me aka die-hard fans of Via Mari, then you all know that Katarina is the lead character in the Prestian series with her husband Chase Prestian … so you can see it is all kept in the family! Rule is told from FOUR different points of views! Of course Katarina and Chase and then Giovanni, the next in line to become the Don of the Family AND Serena who has lived her life in the fear of the Larussio family … Throw these four together, add to this the magic that Via Mari adds to all her writing and you are left with an opening move that will leave you panting for the next book in the series!

Tanuja Ramachandran: Hunter-Seeker was a great novel! I’m not typically a fan of this genre, and the names were confusing. I feel like I might have understood better if I read the rest of the series first, but it wasn’t hard to get into at all! Great characters and character development! It was very entertaining and I would recommend reading this book!
Somebody in the Neighborhood by Judy Moore 5 stars
Ok this author has done it again! I think I know the answer and I’m wrong. This book had me hooked. Dawn feels a connection to her aunts house in Florida so she makes the decision to move there after she’s murdered. Things start to happen and she come to the conclusion that the suspect they have in custody isn’t the right person. I couldn’t put this down as I just had to know and boy was I wrong on my first guess. Great book!

I give Somebody in the Neighborhood by Judy Moore, 4 stars.
I really enjoyed this book. I thought Dawn was a great main character and I understood her thoughts and needs perfectly. She needed to get away and start over, and her aunt’s house was the perfect place. The neighborhood had the type of people you would expect in a small town type atmosphere. While you don’t always agree with them, they do really exist. I liked how each person was different too, not just cookie cutter placements.
The whole book is shrouded in suspense as you try to figure out who is killing and why. There are things happening throughout the book to keep you involved too. The list of suspects is quite long, and so many people could be the suspect. I was pleasantly surprised by the actual killer, it wasn’t one of my top suspects.
This is a great whodunit suspense set in a small Florida cul-de-sac that offers an interesting story and unique characters. If this is your type of book, I highly recommend that you pick this book up.

A great read about answers. Ian Troy struggles to keep going against the strength of his enemies. Desperate for answers to solve things and tackle his ever growing magic, he seeks the stories of the past. Can he find the answers and defeat his enemies before it’s too late? A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. Well developed characters like Ian trying to keep going despite the odds. Great catsbof supporting characters like the stern Sienn or the caring Jillyan or Jarryd as wise but kind and more to him. I loved the visual detail throughout the novel like with the prologue with the stones and auras and waterfall and magic with their bright and beautiful colours for a sense of awe and wonder so vivid it’s as if you’re actually there. Or the portal with its vivid colours and strange sensations wonderfully written. Or Kabri later with its white sand and beaches in the sunset for a sense of beauty and calm. A great example of world building with a range of fantastical beings with their own rules and laws and societies. I loved how the author explored more of the history of the Shinre in this novel adding more to them. I loved how the book brought the reader straight into the story with short sentences and fast paced action to grab your attention and draw you in to make you want to read more. I also liked the use of the journal entries as part of the narrative was written well and didn’t disrupt from the narrative of the present. It also added suspense, with small details revealed slowly to make you want to keep reading, wonderfully written. The only issue I would raise is that I by the end of the story I felt the rivalry between the world and Langorians was never truly explained when it was a major point in previous novels. Overall, a great read and I would give it four stars.View all my reviews

Absolutely amazing book! I was hooked from the first page and couldn’t put it down. You think you’ve figured it out, but there are so many twists and turns. The main character Naomi is a writer, and she seems to be the only person that can uncover the truth about Maggie. As I was reading I felt spooked out but in the best way possible. 10/10 would recommend to everyone!

Forbidden Love:Written by Lisa Jones Gentry, As Told by Joe Steele is a story of forbidden love. It is a sweet romance story, but at the same time it is a story that makes your heart grow just a little bigger knowing the whole story. Joe Steele had a story to tell and Lisa Jones Gentry listened and wrote his story. There was a couple of strikes against Sophie and Billy. They both belong to the Catholic religion one as a nun and one as a priest. Not only is Billy a priest, but he is also a African-American in the 1950’s. There are some rough roads that Billy and Sophie had to deal with their romance story. Out of their story, there was a baby born to the nun Sophie. This is a real-life story which cause my emotions go on a roller coaster ride. I did read this in one sitting and had a box a Kleenex by for my tears. I hope you find this story as beautiful as I did. Happy Reading.

Singles by Gaia B Amman a four-star read that will let you fit. This is Woman Scientist Trilogy two, The Italian Saga book eight. I have read them as a series and enjoyed them as such, I would suggest you read them in order as even reading the after a break means I have had to nip back and check something as I was feeling a little lost. Leda is a good character who you will enjoy getting to know, she is real as she is flawed and that just means she leaps off the page. Reading about her and getting to know her better just made this story so much better that I would have been without her.

Rule by Via Mari a five-star read that will surprise you. This is the first story in the Larussio Legacy series and shows us what a great series we are in store for. Via Mari does it again and writes a great story that will never let you go, bringing passion and action to the story, bringing the suspense and drama, showing us a different side on every page, keeping it cool enough that it’s not so done that you can’t keep up, but hot enough to melt. If you have read any of the previous stories then you will see some familiar faces popping up, but also some new ones that will keep you on your toes.

Hennessey on the Rocks by Monica DeSimone is a contemporary romance you won’t be able to put down. I was sucked in from the beginning and couldn’t read it fast enough.

If Naomi thought solving three murders was going to earn her a respite from the spirits who flock to her for guidance and resolution, she couldn’t have been more wrong. This time around, helping her friend, Officer Miriam Marty, solve a particularly daunting case is just the beginning.
Newly married to her soul mate, Bryce, Naomi figured she could settle in and enjoy the first few months of marriage without the all-consuming task of helping the spirits around her find the closure they so desperately seek. She should have known there was no chance of normalcy, though—even her stepdaughter Holly’s quirky new friend, Lillie, adds to the confusion.
This time, Naomi’s challenge is unique. Not only does she have to put her heart and soul into helping an intricate, beautiful ghost, but this precious soul soon teaches Naomi that her path in life, her fate, has led her to precisely where she needs to be.
Everything about Naomi’s past experiences with the paranormal crashes together as Naomi becomes entwined in the entangled plot that has become her life, alongside the unique souls that complete her destiny.

It was suspenseful & steamy! I couldn’t put it down. This story kept me on the edge of my seat and the fact that it was in multiple POVs made for even more of an interesting story.

Rule was a great 5 star read and book one in The Larussio Legacy.
Chase is determined to keep Katarina safe. You can feel the love between them and they give us some very hot and steamy scenes. Katarina wants to fulfill her father’s dream after he is severely injured but she needs to meet with Giovanni and get his approval. Will she get it?

In this story, Eliza wins a singing contest/reality show to become the lead singer of a band. One night, after a show, she is attacked and left for dead. Her brother is a police officer and former military and he brings in a member of his former team to act as her body guard once she comes out of her coma. Renegade has to take the assignment. When a brother calls, you answer. He and Eliza have an instant attraction that could cause problems on the case. But he takes his job very seriously and vows to keep her safe while her brother works on finding her attacker.
This story was an interesting read, but for me, I wanted more details. There were things that were really skipped over and left up to you to make assumptions on how things occurred, but I think it was just because it was such a short story. It’s a good beginning to the series and I think it will only get better as the series goes on. The characters had great potential and intriguing personalities. I look forward to learning more about them. You’ve got to love a group of hot alpha military men! And Eliza is a strong, independent woman who knows what she wants and is willing to fight for it.

This is the first book that I’ve read from Raven White and I wasn’t disappointed. Between the action and romance I couldn’t put the book down. The story was so imaginative and I loved the characters. I loved how this renegade mercenary which once was this bada$$ military man now is a body guard fro his best friend’s little sister (I’m a total sucker for these stories). I can’t wait to read more from this series

Renegade (The Mercenaries Series Book 1) by Raven White
5-Stars
Renegade (The Mercenaries Series Book 1) by Raven White was an excellent action packed romance. Sam aka Renegade is a former military member now mercenary who is called to return a favor to his friend Sparrow. Sparrow’s sister Eliza has been attacked recently and wakes in the hospital confused. She is not sure who attacked her an why. Renegade is to be her protector. Sparks fly when the two meet and the danger intensifies. The two must work together to stop her attacker and maintain her safety.
I loved this short story. I was able to read it in one sitting. I am excited to see what comes next in this series. I loved all the characters and how well they were developed for such a short read. Eliza and Renegade were amazing. I loved following them and also the wit and humor they shared in their conversations. The storyline was easy to follow and organized. I loved that several supporting characters also had their own sections which played an important role in the development of the story. It had an excellent plot and climax as well. I was definitely hooked immediately with this book. I highly recommend it!
