My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

A Study in Spirits: A College Fae Magic Series #2 by Byrd Nash is the follow on from Never Date a Siren. It is a wonderful Young Adult story full of paranormal beings, college life, humour, drama, debts, bonds, challenges, lessons, magic, danger, adventure, and more.
We meet back up with Brigit, Logan, and their friends as this next adventure unfolds. A new school year has started at Leopold Otto University and Brigit finds herself accused of cheating and will need to clear her name or face expulsion. Then there’s the matter of being indebted to the Doppelganger (from book #1 ‘Never Date A Siren’) after his help with the siren problem from the last year. More problems arise when a spate of vandalism in the library sets off a hunt to uncover the ‘monster’ behind the destruction. Never a dull moment for these characters.
This is a fantastic second instalment and as I am now completely invested in the characters, I really can’t wait to see what they get up to in the next book!
Such a fun read!!!

Thank you, Byrd Nash!

The Scene (Dylan Hart #1)The Scene by R.M. Gilmore
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

The Scene is the first book in the Dylan Hart Series by R.M. Gilmore. This book was even better than I’d imagined. I was hooked right from the beginning, completely engrossed by the unfolding story. R.M Gilmore has such a detailed and descriptive style- bringing all her words to ‘life’ and giving it a dynamic and exciting quality that made it impossible to put down.
Dylan Hart is a journalist who is on the trail of the story of a lifetime- investigating the possibility of vampires as murder victims turn up drained of blood. But things soon get complicated and dangerous. Things aren’t quite what they seem. Dylan’s investigation has put a target on her back, and she is soon fighting for her life. What happens makes for a thrilling read.
I will be one-clicking the rest of this series to explore asap!
Fantastic!

Thank you, R.M Gilmore!

The Bar Next Door (Barflies #1) by Katia Rose- Review by Angela Hayes

The Bar Next Door (Barflies, #1)The Bar Next Door by Katia Rose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

The Bar Next Door is the first book in the Barflies series by Katia Rose. This is a great contemporary romance- with a rom-com feel and an enemies to lovers aspect as well. The story is angsty, emotive, fun, sweet, and sexy. As my first book by Katia Rose, I felt it was a perfect introduction to her work- and definitely left me wanting to explore more of her books. It was so easy to immerse myself in the story, while also investing in these wonderful, slightly quirky, and complex characters- who really made this story come to life.
Monroe’s life revolves around Tavern Toulouse where she has worked ever since her student days. It’s her second home and the staff are more like family. But, business hasn’t been so great so the threat of closure is an ever present weight on her shoulders. The building next door has been sold and is being renovated into a trendy wine bar lounge- which threatens the already struggling dive bar even more.
Monroe decides to do some investigating- and this is where the story takes off. Julien and Monroe may be rivals, but the sparks fly, and things quickly heat up. Will their rivalry end in heartache and loss? Or will love win out in the end?
I loved the chemistry and connection between Julien and Monroe- it was just the right mix of tension, angst, drama, sweet, and spicy. The banter also added to my enjoyment of the story.
I am very much looking forward to the rest of this series.

Thank you, Katia Rose!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Why, oh why haven’t I discovered Ms. Murphy’s books before now? I am kicking myself for missing out all this time!!!
Summer Princess is the first book in the Dark Fae series by Sloane Murphy. I loved this story, and absolutely can not wait for the release of Book #2. I don’t know if it is even been written yet- but I am willing to camp out in the author’s yard just to get snippets as they come!!! And don’t get me started on the ending- OMG!!! The mother of all cliff-hanger’s…. I definitely didn’t see that coming. SO well woven, and cleverly crafted!!! Well played Ms. Murphy! Well Played indeed!
I must admit that it took me a little bit to warm to Emilia as she irked me somewhat in the beginning. But I soon found myself caught up in the story, following along avidly- and on “team Amelia” all the way!
This is definitely darker than I expected- even with the hint in the form of the series title “Dark Fae”- I still didn’t catch on lol. The darker elements gave this story added intrigue- and made for riveting reading. I so want to divulge everything in this book that caught my attention and had me so engrossed- but I really don’t want to spoil it for you. All I can say is that if you love a great fantasy story- with interesting characters, a riveting storyline- and cleverly crafted intrigue, and twists and turns- then you really don’t want to miss out on reading this book!!!
Bring on Book #2!!!
Now to explore the rest of Ms. Murphy’s work while I wait…

Thank you, Sloane Murphy!

Midnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski – Review by Angela Hayes

Midnight in the House of LangMidnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

“Darn him and how wonderful he was: how selfless, how beautiful, how masculine. Darn the body, so sculpted, she wanted to cling to it and feel its strength. Those black eyes. That stormy voice. Confound the way the cord between them that ached. Confound the way his presence, even amidst bombs falling, slaked the vibrancy of the cord and left her breathless and satiated all at once. Blast her heart.”

Midnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski is a wonderfully original and intriguing dystopian romance with sci-fi, post-apocalyptic, and steam-punk elements. To me, it really felt like a grown-up, dystopian “Anastasia”(-esque) story – which I loved, but with its own unique identity which gave it so much originality, depth and interest.
The story is incredibly well woven- and Ms. Lewandowski’s world building is brilliant. She paints a picture of a far flung future ravaged by war and catastrophe. Society has reverted back to steam power, airships, and horse drawn carriages. This steampunk dystopian world comes to life under her talented direction. Crafting a realistic and entirely plausible world in which to set her story.

“In 2024, on the western side of the United States, cataclysm occurred. A geyser’s eruption covered half the North American continent. In its wake, not only was America forced to Adjust but the rest of the world as well. Steam engineering began again. Some countries created alternate fuels. Life evolved. Europe reverted to older ways and customs.
We begin. In the year of our lord, 3034. Vienna, Austria. “

We meet Thea Lang who is the granddaughter of the emperor of Austria. As their beloved country is thrown into war- she along with her brother are forced to flee- setting her on quite an action packed adventure. Throw in plenty of danger, a wonderful romance, dramatic developments, fantastic world building- and this story really gets interesting.
I am definitely looking forward to seeing what Ms. Lewandowski has in store for us next.

Thank you, Ms. Lewandowski!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give Indebted to the Vampires (House of Durand Book 1) by Erin Bedford, 5 stars.

This is such a wonderful Paranormal Romance!! I literally could not put it down. Incredibly hot sexy vampires? Check. And not just one, but many. Throw in a clumsy girl with a healthy libido who badly needs this maid job, and you have a fun, quirky book that makes you feel happy reading it. Piper is just a real twenty-something most women could relate to at some point in their life. The brothers are all completely different from one another too. The author lets us see more about each one of them too, so we can better understand why they are the way they are. Not to mention that the story itself is different. I never would have thought for my main character to be a clumsy maid in a house full of vampires. Of course, there is much more going on then just this, like the attractions each one feels to Piper and vice versa. That is not all, but I do not want to give any more away.

If you like hot Paranormal Romance, this book is for you. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give Music Man (Romance in Rehoboth Book 1) by K.L. Montgomery, 5 stars.

This is another amazing book in an incredible series. First off, this series is in my neck of the woods. That is what interested me in the series in the first place. How many people write about Delaware in fiction?! What kept me is the incredible writing of an obviously talented author. This book is another amazing example of it. These characters are so real, the have real faults, real issues, and real feelings. Not one of these characters are flat. There are parts that will make you cry, parts that will make you laugh and parts where you really want to smack the characters upside the head. But that’s ok, they’re allowed. The story of him wanting to be a “rock star” is an interesting twist for this series. I am blown away at how may different storylines and types of people the author can come up with. They do not feel like the same thing again and again. I congratulate her on this and hope to read many more in this series. Needless to say, I could not put the book down.

Oh and for the record, driving while being stuck behind a chicken truck — pure Slower Lower. Talk about realism!

If you are a fan of sweet romances where the people are real and they struggle just like normal couples, this book and series are for you.

I give A Study in Spirits: A College Fae magic series #2 by Byrd Nash, 5 stars.

The first book in this series was so much fun and I anxiously awaited the next one. Well, it passed the grade and then some. The book was outstanding! Sticking with the same group of characters from book 1, there is also an addition of another character to their group who is just as interesting and I would love to see more of in the future. The characters are so great because they work together so well and all have kindness to others in their heart. Albeit different and not always on the same page, they work together to help those in need. This time, the focus is something evil in the library. The way they go about solving everything is so interesting and you just can’t put the book down. The story is entertaining and fun, the characters are real but not too pretentious, and there is of course a talking cat, which just pushes it over the edge for me.

If you are a fan of college aged main characters in an urban fantasy setting, this book is for you.

SerenadeSerenade by T.K. Lawyer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I give Serenade by T.K Lawyer, 4 stars.

This is a steamy Paranormal Romance with a wolf shifter and a human who has no idea the supernatural even exists. Kingsley knows right away that Eva is his, but now he will have to convince her, and he will do anything to prove it. But how will she react when he tells her the truth? Eva gave up on dating, but meeting Kingsley give her second thoughts. Should she give him a chance? Why does it feel like he is hiding something?

An entertaining supernatural romance, this has elements of romance, suspense, and some fun thrown into the mix. The characters are real and fun, I would love to see more of them. Even though Eva isn’t sure what she believes, she steps up for those she cares for when the time is needed. It is a story of whether or not these two, who seem to be fated, can dance to the song of romance and become one. But it is not a simple one. It takes love and trust, and we see just how much each one has.

If you are a fan of supernatural romance, you will enjoy this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give Age of Secrets (The Druid’s Brooch Series 8) by Christy Nicholas, 5 stars.

If you have been reading the series, you have been following the path of the brooch and what powers the current owner of the brooch gains. The powers Fingin gains are my favorite so far and this book itself is my favorite in the series. I really like Fingin. He has had to endure so much in his life, but he doesn’t seem to have a moment’s peace. Just when he thinks he has settled down to a normal life, he is sent on a journey that is both treacherous and thrilling. He learns how much more there is to life and what he really wants out of it. The author has yet again woven a fantastic world set in Ireland, long before it was known as such. She does a perfect job of making you feel like you are there. The secondary characters just add more flavor into the mix. They are not necessarily your normal secondary characters, but you will love them all the same. And this book, it just wouldn’t fit in the series if there wasn’t some magic in it. Well, Fingin gets to experience more than he ever imagined. But he stays strong through everything. He has a big heart and cares about his friends, he must endure for them. But just how much can he take?

If you are a fan of a magical series with strong characters on a journey of a lifetime, this book and series is for you. It can be read as a standalone, but I suggest reading them all since they are so good.

The Scene (Dylan Hart #1)The Scene by R.M. Gilmore
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give The Scene (Dylan Hart Book 1) by R.M. Gilmore, 5 atars.

I absolutely loved this book! If I could, I would give it 10 stars. It is so refreshing to see something new in the mystery/whodunit genre. Yes, it is more common to have female lead characters and mysteries dealing with the occult and supernatural nowadays, but the way the author puts all of this together makes for a hysterical, gripping read. It reminded me heavily of the show Kolchak: Night Stalker, but female and much, much snarkier. I instantly fell in love with Dylan. Bigger than most girls with a personality to match, she is just what I want to see in a lead. She knows she isn’t perfect, but she tries to overcome her insecurities and work with what she has. Then there are the secondary characters. Her best friend is amazing and just what you would expect for Dylan. Then there are the men — my jury is still out on them, but again I hope to see more of them.

Let us not forget the story itself. It based around some murders of women that are quite strange. Dylan decides to look into it more and the deeper she goes, the more she realizes she needs to solve this. Along the way, she begins to question her sanity when it looks like it could be vampires. The author pulls all of the elements together perfectly and throws you right into the story. She does such a seamless job of it, you have to remember where you are when you close the book.

If you are a fan of dark, snarky female leads in a mystery suspense dealing with the supernatural, this book is definitely for you. The subject matter and language is quite adult at times, so make sure you are okay with this first. If you like the edgier side of things, get this book now!

I give Journeys Through TimeSpace (Journeys Through Book 2) by James Talisman, 5 stars.

This book is incredible. We pick up the characters from book one and see how their stories advance. Each of them continue to grow and it is interesting to see how they all progress. It is obvious that each one truly commits to their beliefs. Then there is the story itself. You have multiple settings involving multiple sets of characters. The author does a wonderful job of keeping them all interesting and cohesive. Although the book jumps back and forth, it is quite easy to pick up where these characters left off. The worlds the author created are phenomenal and make you feel like you are there. There were some that I would love to be a part of in real life. There are many little surprises thrown in too that make it an even more interesting read. I really enjoyed read this series, it is nothing like I have read before. As a bonus, it really makes you stop and possibly look at the world in a different way. These characters take nothing for granted.

This book is the second in the series and really should be read after book one. If you are a fan of epic science fiction this book and series are for you.

The Scene (Dylan Hart Series Book 1) by R.M. Gilmore was exciting and intriguing. Dylan was on the hunt for why girls were showing up dead as if a vampire had killed them for her book. Little did she know that she would get pulled in and put herself on the killer’s radar. Her character was hilarious, witty, and smart. I loved her way of thinking and her frequent conversations with herself. I also loved bff Tatum. Those two were like two peas in a pod. It was amazing how in sync they were and how easily they worked together to find out information. I loved their shenanigans in this book. This was such an excellent read. I can’t wait to get started on the next book. I easily give it 5-stars.

Midnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski was an excellent dystopian romance. I loved the world building and how the author opens with an explanation of what changed the world. It set up the basic background for why everything reverted back to carriages and horseback for travel. I loved the main characters and their development. Thea matured greatly after the first attack on the palace. I felt that as the main character she was easy to relate to and visualize. Her brother Arthur irked me at times but he ultimately stepped up to take care of her and to fulfill his duties. This was an excellent read and I look forward to reading more from this author.

A Moore Affair by Michele Sims was a great novel! This was the 4th book in a series, and I have not previously read the others before I read this one. You don’t have to read the other first, but I would recommend it so you aren’t thrown off like past events like I was a little bit. This book had a great story line and characters. I was a little thrown though, cause the timelines weren’t clear cut, and when the characters talked it was a little difficult to figure out who was talking to whom. I enjoyed this book though and can’t wait to read the others in the series in the future!
