Center of Gravity: A Standalone Friends-to-Lovers Sports Romance (An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance Book 2) by Isabella Cassazza

I’m not a hockey fan, but I seem to love hockey romance stories and this one did not disappoint me. There was something about Emilia and Matt’s story that drew me in and kept me engaged until the end.

Emilia was not fulfilled, she wasn’t happy in her job and felt like she could do nothing right. Matt had been burned before and was leary of women and relationships, especially relationships. Who knew one fateful night would change everything for both of them.

I really loved both of these characters for very different reasons. Emilia needed a push to discover her inner strength but once she found it she wasn’t going to relinquish it for anyone or anything. Matt had a vulnerable side that dug it’s claws into my heart. He had a lot more inner strength then he realized and once he found it and opened himself up there was no stopping him.

This book was my introduction to Ms.Cassazza, and I look forward to going back to read the first book in the series and keeping up with the Ice Tigers.

A sweet romance

I really enjoyed reading Center of Gravity: An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance by Isabella Cassazza. Living in an area where hockey is a big deal, I was pleasantly surprised by the idea of a hockey romance. This story about Emilia Ravelli, a heiress to a clothing company, really resonated with me. Emilia has tried so hard to show her grandfather that she can be the CEO of the family company but sh seems to have trouble every time to show him she can do it. In the midst of this crisis at work, she finds out she has a problem she needs to keep to herself for a while.

Out of the blue, her grandfather gives her an ultimatum, to move from Rome to Boston, to run a Hockey Team he just bought. The team is the company’s way to get their foot in the door begin selling their luxury clothing line in the United States. Emilia is told this is her last test to show she can make something of herself or she will be disowned.

The story has wonderful characters who have personality, friendships, and the team spirit and guts to work hard to show everyone they have what they need to be successful. I would definitely recommend this book to my friends. Can’t wait to pick up another book by Ms. Cassazza.

This story has so many great things such as romance, mystery, suspense, drama, and deals with some hard and sensitive subjects. There is some great chemistry between Josh and Tasha but neither one of them are looking for anything serious.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have to say In The Arms of Morpheus: A Speculative Romance (Antiheroes Series Book 2) by Gaia B Amman was not quite what I expected. That is not a bad thing I’m just saying it wasn’t exactly what I expected. It read like a mystery book all the way through it and I was trying desperately to figure it out before I got to the end. Needless to say, it didn’t end the way that I planned. However, the characters are very interesting, and their interactions are all solid. I think the thing that I like best about this book was the interactions between the characters. So much misreading of intention, so much fear of being clear about how you feel. The fear of rejection, the fear of commitment. But isn’t that what we are all made of. Watching Tasha and Josh come to grips with their feelings was quite the roller-coaster. I especially liked the historical notes at the end.

I loved reading the book Shattered: a Logan McKenna Mystery Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series) by Valerie Davisson. It is a story that pulled me in from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. It is a story of suspense, mystery, and murder. I loved the character of Logan. The author does an amazing job of developing her character and I felt like she would be someone I would want as a friend. Logan is determined to help her good friend Thomas when he is accused of murder. Logan knows that she must find the murderer to clear his name. The book is written in such a way that I felt like I was right there with Logan as she investigates. The story also does have a bit of romance and in parts had my emotions going up and down. I found myself turning pages wanting to know what was going to happen next. Don’t miss out on a book that will hook you in and won’t let you go. I highly recommend reading it.

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Book 1) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Jana Teppih

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge, #1)One Hot Texas Summer by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

One Hot Texas Summer is the first book in Nicole Flockton’s new Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge series. I had read her Man’s Best Friend series so after reading the synopsis I decided that for sure, I will dig into the new series as I thought that I knew what to expect and yes, she did absolutely not disappoint!
One Hot Texas Summer is a great summer romance that goes much deeper than it seems on the surface! Nicole gives us the youngest of the Prentice brothers, Tate and Kelly Turner who has been thinking about Tate way too much lately (even though he is a ‘younger man’, well, just by few years!!!). These are two young people who work really hard for what they have – Tate has taken over the running of the family orchard when his father had a stroke, and Kelly took over the local florist shop and turned it into a success. Both of them have their own baggage – Kelly from her previous relationships and Tate from his family dynamics after his mother died when he was just fifteen. Neither of them is ready or wants a relationship but there are sparks, oh my, are there sparks so they have to get on with the program! AND for your information! There are characters in the story that we know from the other series apparently so now I need to go and pick up the Sweet Texas Secret series but I am not complaining as I live Nicole’s style of writing and reading something heart-warming and relatable during the times we are living, it is no hardship!

Lady Isra takes us down and into her world as we find what makes her world as entertaining from her perspective. In this whimsical book, I’m quickly turning the page to see what’s entertaining. Lady Isra is witty, funny and unpredictable in her quests with Astrid, the raven, at her side. This is great world building by the author. Action-packed as we discovers what makes her her and easy to read as well. Great book to start!

This is one true love story in an unlikely pairing. The couple, the male and female, are drawn to one another but choose to deny their initial attraction. The male wants to run from his feelings of fear of being shut down and the woman is ill-trusting after a difficult breakup. The more they spend time with one another, the more their mutual attraction brings them closer together.
This is a beautiful story, perfect scenery and perfect characters to bring it altogether. I absolutely love how everything ties together, especially bringing the best characters together, beautiful descriptions of the world around the characters, steamy and seductive scenes with beautiful characters. I loved this!

Matt, on the other hand, draws her in with his bedside manner and she second-guesses everything she’s felt before especially when it comes to him. Where does that leave him in her eyes? Matt wants something more and a single touch by Erica sends him off into a tailspin to want something more with her. As the two fight their intuition on what they think of love, will they go the opposite way and wind up where they always wanted to be after all?
This is a beautifully written story filled with steamy innuendo. You love how electrifying their intensity draws not only the reader in but their love for one another. Great, intense, steamy and romantic book!

A Divided Mind (The Divided Series Book 1)A Divided Mind by M. Billiter

This book is seen through different characters’ perspectives and it’s also a journey for the mom and for one of her sons’, Branson. We follow as Branson struggles with a new diagnosis of schizophrenia but also struggles to balance a girlfriend, life as a twin brother but a sibling to Carson, his sister and being a high school senior preparing for college. This whole book had me feeling for poor little Branson and how his life wouldn’t be the same as he ventures into the world battling so much for the rest of his life as he goes on. This is a beautifully written story of mental illness and how it impacts your world from every which way you can ever imagine. Great and intense read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I fell in love with these twins’ stories when I first read about what happened with Branson and I felt he was not only misunderstood. My heart ached for him as I got through that first read. Coming from a family where mental illness is present, that book had me hooked just as much as the second.
When you meet both twins, who are away at separate colleges in different states, no less but you’re concerned with Branson who has to fight schizophrenia. You’re concerned with what Tara’s sickness can do for his mental health and how it will create new choices for both twins.
I loved how this book was written as much as the first. You also find each brother battling their own emotions in their own ways when they’re hit unexpectedly with a life-altering illness like cancer. This story had my heart aching for the twins as they’re going through the grieving process with one another and battling crippling mental illness all at once. You can’t help but want to jump through the pages of the book to help the characters on their way to survive it all but you can’t which leaves you feeling helpless and upset at a fictional book. Great read and well-written.

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge, #1)One Hot Texas Summer by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kelly owns her own florist shop in the small town of Sweet Ridge. After her last relationship went awry, she isn’t sure if that forever kind of love is for her. After a lunch with friends, she finds herself in charge of organizing and decorating a secondary location for the town’s upcoming Founder’s Day Festival. If that wasn’t enough stress, she will be working side-by-side with the man she has proclaimed to be the town playboy, Tate Prentice.
Tate is now in charge of Prentice Farms after his mother passed away and his father became ill. As the youngest of three boys, it has fallen on his shoulders to keep the farm running since the other two are living their own lives. He loves the farm, and takes his role seriously, which is why he is not looking forward to planning the Founder’s Day Festival with Kelly.
Once these two get together to start working, sparks fly…and not necessarily all good ones. While there is attraction, there is also some pent up anger issues that each are holding from other areas of their lives that bleed into their working relationship. This story is the ups and downs of building a new relationship in a small town with two individuals who are independent and hard-working.
I enjoyed this book and story was sweet. There was enough drama to be believable without being over-the-top. I enjoyed their banter and when they would call each other on their b.s.. I sat down and started this story and didn’t get up until I was done…it was that good.

Man I was just hooked from the first chapter. I have read other books by this author and again I was not let down. I really like how the characters just really come together and that there is just the right amount of drama to fill out with the romance and that they compliment one another.

I really like how the chemistry between Josh and Tasha unfolds. I really like the complexity of things within the story as this just adds to everything. I really like the use of Native American culture lore. I really like how the author is able to bring a creative use of it that both is respectful and adds to the story. I really look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Center of Gravity (An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance #2) by Isabella Cassazza

This is book 2 in An Ice Tiger Hockey Romance Series, but can be read as a stand alone. This is the first book I’ve read by the author and I’ve got to say I want more. Isabella is talented and brings characters to life.

Emilia, a clothing heiress, finds that her grandfather buys a hockey team. Living in Rome she has to make the move to America. When she runs into the person she was looking for. The quote I choose for Emilia is: “If your daddy doesn’t want us, we’ll make it on our own.”

Matt, a hockey player, does something he doesn’t regret in Italy. When the person shows up he’s shocked. Matt doesn’t want a relationship or does he? The quote I choose for Matt is: “The babies are all over the internet?”

This book had me reading the book and not wanting to put it down. This was a phenomenal read and I really want more. Matt and Emilia are by far the cutest!

One Hot Texas Summer (A Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Romance #1) by Nicole Flockton

This is the first book in A Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Romance Series and I loved it. Nicole has a way of bringing these boys to life. I was transferred into the book.

Kelly Turner, running from love, finds it at herself. She is shying away from love, but wants it. She finds herself thinking of someone she shouldn’t be. What happens when they have to work together? The quote I choose for Kelly is: “When you lashed out you hurt me a lot, Tate. I didn’t want to be around you. Again the person I cared for treated me like a worthless possession. Like I didn’t deserve to be an important part of their life. Help you through dealing with whatever happened with your dad.”

Tate Prentice, the youngest of Prentice boys, is known as a playboy. He’s done a lot of growing up since the accident, but doesn’t let anyone know. When he finds himself having to work with Kelly Turner things change. The quote I choose for Tate is: “Kelly Turner, will you do me the honor of going steady with me for the rest of our lives?”

I can’t wait for the next book in the series. Nicole has really outdone herself. I highly recommend this if you’re looking for romance and witty.

This is the first book in the Antiheroes Series and I really enjoyed reading this. Gaia knows how to grab a reader’s attention and keep it. I had a hard time putting the book down.

Tasha, has a PhD and is a chemist, doesn’t do love. She has her heart on lock down, but something in her dreams makes her want to let down her guard. She goes looking for help, but finds herself in trouble. The quote I choose for Tasha is: “What if Hazel Eyes has been around for a while? I mean, I’ve had several true dreams—”

Josh, a dream walker, finds himself helping Tasha. He wants more from her, but doesn’t know she feels the same. Things are hard for him after something happens between them. The quote I choose for Josh is: “Tasha, I have major concerns about Kai. Astral projection into reality is rare—”

I highly recommend this to anyone who loves a good page turner. Gaia is quite the author who paints an amazing world. I wanted to step into the book and not come out. I can’t wait for the next book.

ConfidentialityConfidentiality by Jessica Aiken-Hall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Confidentiality is the second book in the Scope of Practice series. You need to read the first book in order to get the full picture of what is happening in book two.

In the first book, I related to some of the main character’s attributes, but there is a side of her that I don’t relate to so much. That part of her life started in book one but is further explored in book two as things start spiraling. I found myself wondering how I could relate to a character’s personal attributes so much, but not align with her actions, even though I understand her motivation for it initially. The author has done a great job of layering the main character to give her complexity.

I enjoyed the anti-hero aspects of the story as well. Even though I had it figured out pretty quickly, I thought the choice was interesting.

Overall, this was a great continuation of the first part of the story in book one. As with book one, sensitive readers should note that there are potential triggers in this story.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rebecca Steele Finding The Dream is the 2nd book in the Rebecca Steele Series by Joanne Patterson. I had not read the first book in this series, in fact, it’s the first time I had read anything by this author, but I was able to follow the story fine and didn’t feel that I was missing any relevant information.
Rebecca, or Becky as she’s known is now making a name for herself in the country music scene and is enjoying life living and helping out on the ranch and her friendship with Chance is developing into something more. As always the path to true love never runs smoothly and Becky and Chance face a few bumps in the road, but that makes for a more enjoyable reading experience. It would be boring if everything was perfect.
I loved both Becky and Chance’s characters. Becky is energetic and spirited but very loving and loyal to her friends and all who are close to her. Chance is a sweet, hardworking, cowboy who would do everything possible to make Becky happy.
I did take a little bit to get really into this story but overall I did enjoy it very much. The overall storyline is good although in parts I did feel that it could have been more descriptive. The book is quite short and I think it could have been padded out a little more. Some events were over very quickly and could have been added to. Although short, I did enjoy what I read.

The Divided Twin in the 2nd book in the Divided Series by M. Billiter. This book is co-written by Kyle Thomas, and is the continued story following A Divided Mind. You should read them together, in order. I loved the first book, and loved this one just as much. It gives us a deeper look into Branson’s life with psychoaffective disorder. I liked that we got to see Aaron’s life as well, as they navigate into adulthood. They have branched out and now attend different schools but continue to lean on each other. We are introduced to the “third twin” David, who lives in one of their minds. The characters in the story are wonderfully written, and very realistic. The reader develops feelings for the boys as they cope with hardships. It is emotional at times, so be prepared for some heavy moments. Overall, I Highly recommend this book.

A Divided Mind is the first book in the Divided Series by M. Billiter. It is my first venture with this author but I LOVED it. I have always had an interest in psychology and why people do what they do, so this series is right up my alley. The synopsis is real short so I dont want to give too much away, but I love the way this book was written. The author explains before the book that she has written the book as a work of fiction, but with first hand experience. The book tells the story of Branson Kovac, a teenager who hears voices and may or may not have an imaginary friend. It shows the adjustment period after learning you suffer from mental illness. The stages of denial, anger, acceptance and steps in coping for both the patient, and their family and friends. This book was wonderfully written and I am on to the 2nd book in the series.

This was a new experience for me reading Nicole Flockton, but I was anxious to find out what the book was all about after the bright and cheerful cover caught my attention. With the world today we live in today I am often finding myself drawn to the bright cheery things lately and this was just what the doctor ordered.

We get the story of Kelly and Tate in this novel, as well as an obvious set up for more books with side characters that play a role in this one as well. I am actually anxious now to get my hands on the next book and learn more about the Prentice brothers. This one however was Tate’s story. We find Kelly back at home in Sweet Ridge, Texas after a pretty brutal breakup. She is successful with her floral shop and is now roped into taking care of the local festival as well. There she meets Tate. These two have a special spark up front but both have struggles that will or do make a new relationship difficult. This was definitely a slow burn type read and things moved at a comfortable and believable pace. I enjoyed escaping to the idyllic town of Sweet Ridge as well and I am so excited to go back for book two.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have really grown to like the works of Gaia B Amman, and when I saw this second book in the Antiheroes was available I knew I needed to check it out. The way that she approaches the sci-fi aspects make it seem realistic, as if I am transported into this very possible alternate world that could happen and feels so real. It makes me feel as if I have embarked on an adventure by the time I finish one of her novels. This one was no different.

We follow Tasha and Josh in this book, and boy do they have quite the adventure together. I won’t divulge details but I would read book one to get a feel for how things are going into this one. It is one that will keep you on the edge of your seat waiting to find out how these two will come out in the end. I am looking forward to getting my hands on the next one and taking another reprieve into a new world and adventure.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Slaughter of Leith Hall was not my typical first choice as far as books. Historical based novels tend to drag and be drab. This one did admittedly stall in the excitement area for the first few bits of the story but once it took off it really took off and I was engrossed to find out how things would come to culmination for the characters and the underlying murder mystery that is prevelant throughout. Once I got over the beginning parts this book drew me into the world of Charlie and Leith. Charlie is far from home and finds a protector and more in Leith. Things take a dark turn when a murder becomes his obsession. He is determined to find justice and closure. I can’t say much else for fear of spoiling the good stuff but this is one you will want to read if you are a fan of dark and suspenseful mystery reads. I know I am looking forward to seeing what else is available from Conyngham and if we will get more in this book as a series.

The Divided Twin Is book two in the The Divided Series by M. Billiter with Kyle Thomas. This book and book one are so different than any book than any other books i have read and i enjoyed that. The emotions in the story were on high and i needed the tissues a few times for those stubborn tears i couldn’t help but shed. This isn’t all sunshine and rainbows and shows the hard truths of what having a mental illness could do to someone and the people they are close to. I am looking forward to reading more by these authors and i would recommend this to anyone that is looking for something different!

A DIVIDED MIND (THE DIVIDED SERIES #1) BY M. BILLITER – REVIEW BY ANASTASIA DODSON

A Divided MindA Divided Mind by M. Billiter
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Divided Mind is young adult story about mental illness. This story was well written and had good main characters. The attention to detail was the best part because i felt like i was in the story and what a interesting story to be in. I liked that this book talks about mental illnesses because it is a very really issue in today’s world and there isn’t enough people talking about them. This story revolves around Branson who has started to hear voices inside his head. We follow him and his family as they take life day by day just trying to hold it together. I am looking forward to reading more of this series and more by this author in the future!
Happy Reading!
