High Fae Academy – Year One: Fae Paranormal Romance
by Kaylin Peyerk

This was a quick read but it had plenty going on and I enjoyed every minute of it. I loved Tiana and as much as she didnt want to attend the fae academy, she found out not everything is as it seemed. The attraction her elements felt toward each element prince was off the charts. Let’s not forget the man when that resides inside her, with all these men I don’t know who she will choose. It was a captivating original story that I had a hard time putting down. When I got to the end I couldn’t believe I was left hanging on the edge of a cliff!! I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book. I highly recommend this book.

By Mina Chara
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a full length fantasy. Written for the coming of age romance readers.

Welcome to the School for the Power People. Hero High provides all the things the students need. This is a different type of school you are used to. These high school students are told what to wear, as the school provides the clothes. The students are followed around by cameras and are told who they are to date. That being the case, they are paid for this. Good or bad the money is to help out their families. That is all I will tell you! No spoilers!

Mina Chara has written this Fantasy Adventure. I love the characters in this story. But most of all I feel as though I am right there beside the teens. This book is loaded with action and will keep you reading. Although it is written for teens and young adults, I feel anybody could read it. This gives you a chance to discuss this book with your teens, open communication is always GREAT. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series, as well as discussing it with my teenager. Well Done Mina Chara!

Wow what a good read. If you like stories with vampires this is definately one for you.

Piper has been hired as a house maid. When she arrives she is surprised to find her boss or bosses are six men. Not only that they are 6 of the most attractive sexually appealing men she has ever seen.

Piper starts work and everything goes well until one night she uncovers her bosses secret and then everything makes sense( the not seeing them during the day, red bottles of liquid in the fridge that she assumed was a fitness drink).

Piper is shocked but doesnt leave her job. She learns more about their lives and gets closer to some of the brothers. However her happy existance changes when at a party she meet Valentine and he takes a liking to her.

Book 1)
By K.L. Montgomery
☆☆☆☆☆
What can I say about this book? It’s a full length Romantic Comedy with a twist of Rock Star. This book can be a standalone. Although I don’t think it will be for many people.

Jack loves his music. Sense he can follow his dream at the moment, he settles for the next best thing. Teaching Music! But let’s not forget that little cutie Mariana, Jack’s daughter. The two have a special bond, one of love and for Jack’s dedication.

Claire has the gumption to get it done. She is also strong in her conviction. If she decides on something, she follows through. Learning to play the piano. Is really where she wants to be. Feelings are shared and this story is off and running.

K.L. Montgomery is a fabulous writer! The Jack and Claire story is just one example. Her characters are just everyday people, making the best out of life. The women are strong and not whiny, the men are real people. I love this story and can’t wait to read the series. I have read many of K.L. Montgomery ‘ s books and find this series is becoming my “Can’t wait for the next one” series to go after.

A Moore Affair
Moore Family Saga
Book 4
By Michele Sims
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
This is the 4th book in the Moore Family. This is a full length novel. Not for those under 18, due to the adult theme.

This is the marriage of Bella and Miles (ARI) Moore. Set in Scotland was their wedding, Paris was the honeymoon that followed. There were highs and lows in the days, weeks and months to follow. Miles has quite a following, being the popular music mogul he is. Can Bella and Miles get through the turmoil that follows Miles? Will their marriage be stronger, as they learn to trust and communicate? Your turn to find out.

Michele Sims wrote this page turner. I felt like I was in Scotland watching this wedding develop and take place. Her description of the things going on, just puts you into this story. I fell in love with her characters, and the places they visited. But more importantly was the communication between the two. Let’s not forget the emotional feelings going on in this story. I have enjoyed following this series and hope for more to come.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 6 is the Mountain Series. It follows Abby’s story. We have meet Abby in the other Mountain books but this one can be read as a standalone. It does have references to the previous books but its not a lot that means you cant follow the story without reading the previous books.

Abby has finally left home and has started callege live. She is learning to live as an adult and deal with things in an adult way. She falls in love with a woman called Mia.

Even though she knows her mother will accept her gf and her choice to be with a woman, her father isnt going to be as happy or supportive.

This follows Abby’s journey from living two seperate lives, acting as one person with her dad and his family and being her true self around her mother, to finally learning and embracing who she is and managing to get that across to her father.

Its an emotional story with loads of ups and downs but a great insight into what a teenager may have to face for them to truelly be the person they want to be.

I loved this friends to lovers romance by Erin Bevan. Christian school teacher Alexandra Mills and Max Buchanan, a political figure and eligible bachelor are best friends and always have been and when Alex risks loosing her job when a one night stand leaves her pregnant Max steps in to help. Max in turn needs to prove that his playboy years are behind him if he wants to keep his business afloat and so they decide a marriage of convenience will help them both. However the longer they pretend to be in love both their feelings start to change, they just don’t tell each other. I loved Alex and Max’s characters they were realistic and likeable and the chemistry between them was obvious to everyone apart from them. I loved how their relationship changed from best friends to lovers and how this developed over the book. I was cheering them on hoping they would get their happy ever after. This was a lovely read, a great escapism book which flowed nicely and I felt fully immersed in Alex and Max’s story. A wonderful romantic novel full of emotions and drama. I look forward to future books in Bevan’s ‘Serendipity Falls’ series.

I loved reading the story All The Wrong Reasons (Serendipity Falls Novel Book 1) by Erin Bevan. It is a book that pulled me in and didn’t let me go until I read the final page. It is a romantic comedy that made me smile, laugh, and also had moments that are touching. I loved reading about the characters of Alexandra Mills and Max Buchanan. Alex finds herself unmarried, pregnant, and in danger of losing her job. Max needs to show that his playboy reputation is in the past. What would happen if they entered into a marriage of convenience as a solution? Max and Alex are characters that I couldn’t help but care for with each chapter that I read. I loved the bantering back and forth between them. The story had my emotions going up and down the whole time I was reading. I also enjoyed reading about many of the additional characters that are introduced and interacted with Alex and Max. Don’t miss out on a romantic story that has wonderful characters.

The Explorer (Mountains, #6)The Explorer by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Explorer is the 6th book in the Mountains series by Phoebe Alexander. Books 1-3 in the series should be read in order but the remaining books are standalones and can be read in any order. I have previously read a lot of Phoebe Alexander’s book and have enjoyed everyone that I have read but I was a bit worried about this one as I didn’t really relate to Abby’s character when I read books 1-3. I did, however really enjoy this book although it didn’t grip me quite as much as Sarah and James’ story.
In this book Abigail (or Abby) has gone off to college. It’s very much a coming of age story. Abby was confused about her sexuality. She was sure that she liked girls, and only girls but throughout this book we see Abby coming to terms with her sexuality and discover who she truly is. I really enjoyed reading Abby’s journey, her growing friendships and relationships.
This book has some great secondary characters, particularly Willow and Gavin, who are both fantastic characters that I really enjoyed reading. I also enjoyed reading the relationship between Abby and her newly found father and half-sisters. As much as I hated her father’s actions, it was very well written and engaging to the reader.
I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others. It’s a great coming of age story.

Journeys Through TimeSpace is the second book in the Journeys Through series by James Talisman. Journeys Through is an epic series set in the MultiVerse. The first book in the series, Journeys Through SpaceTime was Talisman’s debut novel and I was blown away by how in depth and detailed the books was. I had been eagerly looking forward to reading the next instalment and I was not disappointed at all. It is a fantastic continuation of the story.
The book can be seen as a fight between good and evil but it is so much more. I loved reading about Matt, Julie and Dan and their journey, both physically and spiritually. The friendship and camaraderie between the 3 is fantastic. You really can’t help rooting for the 3 of them to succeed in their mission. This is also helped as the ‘bad guys’ are really nasty, horrid and evil so you really can’t help but want them to fail. I’ve said before that one mark of a great writer, for me, is by how much they get you to hate the bad guys and I sure hated them in this book.
The characters are so well written in this book that you also can’t helped but be gripped by their story and stay hooked right up to the very end. Although, judging by the way this book ended, this story is not over yet.

Marked for Death (Gray Ghost #6)Marked for Death by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Marked for Death is the 6th (and possibly last…sob sob) book in the brilliant Gray Ghost series by Amy McKinley. This has become one of my favourite book series’ ever and Marked for Death is another excellent book to add to the series. Like all the others in this series this book gripped me from the very beginning and left a very tight grip until the very end. Amy McKinley sure knows how to write a romantic thriller.
In this book the Gray Ghost guys travel to Caracas to rescue four Americans. What they assume will be an easy rescue turns out to be anything but. In the attempt, one of the operatives Keegan Hunt comes face to face with Kara Medina, a beautiful operative from his past life in Caracas that he’s tried to forget. What transpires is a fantastic story filled with danger, tension, suspense and a bit of romance.
The story line flows really well and is action packed. You will be gripped from the very beginning and taken on a fantastic journey that will bring out every emotion and have you gasp in amazement or horror when McKinley throws in a curveball that you do not see coming.
I also loved that we got to see the other couples from previous book as all have a role to play in the Gray Ghost company. I’m sad that this series is likely over but I’m sure that the little taster McKinley gave us in the novella Moonlit Mirage is the start of another fascinating series by her that I’ll devour just as much as this one.

How Could I ForgetHow Could I Forget by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

How Could I Forget is the 1st book in the Plentiful In Love series by N.D. Jackson. It is a wonderful second chance romance set in the town of Plentiful. I had not read any of this author’s work before but was intrigued by the blurb so decided to give it a try. I’m so glad that I took a risk on a new author as I really loved this book.
Kayla and Dan had an unforgettable one night stand on the night before graduation at college. Unforgettable for Dan as it was the night he lost his virginity. Unforgettable for Kayla as the night left her pregnant with twins and no way of contacting Dan as she didn’t even know his surname or anything about him to contact him.
6 years later and Dan comes to Plentiful to help his aunt Tilly only to find Kayla living a few doors away from her. Finding out that he’s a father totally rocks his world. He’s now a hugely successful CEO and a family is the last thing on his mind, that is, until he spends time with Kayla and adorable twins Dani and Tobin.
I absolutely loved this book. I was gripped from the very beginning and could not put this book down. The interactions between Dan and Kayla are HOT, the chemistry is smoking. Aunt Tilly is one of the best secondary characters in a book ever. She’s hilarious and a total breath of fresh air. The scene stealers in this book are the adorable twins Dani and Tobin, in particular the scenes as they get to know Dan. You may need a tissue to get through some of them as they are so sweet and tug at the heart strings.
If this first book is anything to go by, then this is going to be an amazing series. A must read!

Cade (Default Distraction #3)Cade by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cade is the 3rd book in the awesome Default Distraction series by A.S. Roberts. Each book concentrates on 1 member of the band Default Distraction. The story in each book runs concurrently so there is crossover in each book. You could read each book as a stand-alone but as this is such an awesome series, I’d advise you to read them all and if you do, you may as well read them in order.
Cade Morello is DD’s drummer and his family are mafia. He feels responsible for the suicide of his mother many years previously and now feels that he’s unlovable. Winter Davenport is the younger sister of DD’s guitarist Rafferty and comes with a lot of baggage from her younger years. DD are opening a hotel and Winter is in charge of all planning
I loved Cade and Winter’s story. Both are so broken and neither is looking for a relationship. Winter is still trying to get over a relationship from her past but Cade is determined to get her into his bed and to submit to him. This leads to a lot of very funny interactions between the 2 as Winter does everything to avoid Cade and to push him away.
I actually think that Cade might be my favourite of the DD guys although we still have to get Luke’s story which I can’t wait to read. If it’s anywhere near as good as Cade, then I’m going to love it.
110% recommend this book and the whole series.

Red Riding Hood Anthology by Various Authors – Review by Karyn Taylor

/0 Comments/in /by

Red Riding HoodRed Riding Hood by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Red Riding Hood (Down The Rabbit Hole) is an anthology of 12 different authors writing their version of Red Riding Hood. It covers several different genre’s including romance, erotica and horror. I am not going to review all of the stories but have chosen my 2 favourites to talk about. They are Ruby by Autumn Sand and Cloaked by Lia Fairchild.
In Ruby by Autumn Sand, Ruby is a writer who is going through a divorce and is recovering from breast cancer. Her boss sends her to interview Count Edric Moreau of Paris who is known as the Wolf of Europe. Edric has taken over as the head of Moreau International and is known for seducing other millionaires and billionaires wives.
The chemistry between the 2 is instant but Ruby is determined that she will not fall for his charms. Should she be afraid of the big bad wolf?
I really enjoyed this story. In true Autumn Sand’s style it is erotic and titillating.
In Cloaked by Lia Fairchild, Eva Chacon has been searching for her grandfather for 6 years. Most of her family had been wiped out when a war with another crime family got heated. While working as a nurse she thinks she has found him. As she tries to get to know him she also comes into contact with Luke. Is Luke all he seems?
This story is quite dramatic and suspenseful and will keep you glued. Luckily it’s not a very long story and you can devour it all in one sitting. It was the first time I had read work by this author and this little tidbit has made me want more.

All The Wrong ReasonsAll The Wrong Reasons by Erin Bevan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first book by this author, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. I can’t wait to see what else this author has for us. This is a sweet romance book about two best friends who are both faced with having to marry so why not a marriage of convience? Alex finds herself pregent and about to lose her job and Max needs to put his playboy reputation behind him to keep his business. Alex has never seen Max that way but will she change her mind? I was pulled in right from the beginning and was kept engaged to the end. This is a well written story that has characters that have great chemistry and brought the story to life. I had no problem connecting to them. They kept me turning pages and I highly recommend this book.
