Child of Prophecy (The Tirumfall Trilogy BOOK 2) by J Drew Brumbaugh – Review by Sara Oxton

Child of ProphecyChild of Prophecy by J. Drew Brumbaugh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Child of Prophecy by J Drew Brumbagh a fantastic four-star read. This is number two in the Tirumfall Trilogy and picks up a little while after the first, it also starts with a bang and drags you straight into the story, straight into the drama and action. They could both be read as stand-alone, but if you read them together, they build the story and the drama, and just make them both more powerful stories. Gant and his friends bring the story to life, they pull you into the story, you become part of the prophecy and number three cant come soon enough, as I need to know where they will end up.

I’ve always wanted to use this saying now at last I have the opportunity to use it…… Maria DeBlassie definitely has a way with words.

From the cover, to the title, to every single essay, I was absolutely captivated by this book.
Maria takes everyday moments blows life into it and infuses it with a touch of magic.
Her talent with words makes you take a step back and reflect on small moments in your life that are truly special, magical and dare I say ENCHANTING.

Love On The Ropes (Love In Action Book 1) by Aviva Vaughn – Review by Samantha Jayne Grubey

Love On The Ropes (Love in Action, #1)Love On The Ropes by Aviva Vaughn
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

So I have not read the Beckoned series before this and just like it says it is a standalone you don’t feel like you miss anything from not reading the original series which I love because there’s a few times where I’ve read standalone and been completely clueless because of what happened in the previous book/serious.

I love the frenemies to lovers trope it is one of my favourites mainly because I always love the banter between the two characters, Erin and Clint did not disappoint they gave me some banter worthy scenes and I loved it!

I really like Clint he is hilarious especially with his internal monologue for himself, the fact he knows he teases and annoys Erin and recognises that he still wants her, like the kind of get in that bedroom wanting you and I like that he doesn’t hide it all that way. He’s very charming and charismatic, although not all that great about expressing those feelings he has.

Erin I’m on the fence of how I feel about her, I like her character but she’s also kind of annoying at the same time, strangely. Although once Clint starts opening up to her I like her a little bit more she doesn’t seem so judgy. So other than the judgyness of her I really like her character.

Although we stan Fern! I love him! He’s super supportive!

I like how much we go into the climbing scene this book teaching me things I didn’t even know, although that scene kind of gave me chills between CLint and Erin. The sexual tension between these characters, honestly the tension comes pouring off the page. The fact they both want each other but really don’t say it at the beginning makes me really frustrated I just want them to talk to each other and be honest how they feel. Damn the drama that happened in this book the cabin and the woods (I have to admit reminds me of a certain horror movie that did the cabin in the woods, not the actual thing that happened but the name).

I really enjoyed this story and the plot of the story, I will definitely be interested in reading some more of this author’s work, it was a really cute enjoyable read! I liked the characters and the story kept me reading!

Her Blackened Heart (The Blackened Series Book 2) by Isra Sravenheart

Her Blackened Heart is the second book in The Blackened Series by Isra Sravenheart. I highly recommend reading the first book in this series if you haven’t already. It’ll give you a better idea of what is going on and help with the characters. I found myself lost in the pages and couldn’t put it down till I finished. The style of writing is unique and keeps your interest. There’s a lot going on but the author did a great job of making it flow so its not so overwhelming The characters are fun and realistic. Lady Isra is back at it and causing problems. Find out what lies ahead for her and Contessa the white witch. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a love story between two strong characters. Giovanni Larussio, a mafia don is in love with Serena, a heavy headed independent girl, who does not like him being very bossy and protective about her. Her family is against Gio. But because of her relationship with Gio, Serena is in danger and it becomes Gio’s responsibility to protect her. Filled with suspense, danger and romance, it is a very fast paced read. Albeit I felt a lot of background and character development is missed because of not reading the previous books, this book can be read standalone.

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to surprise me with her writing. I love a good athlete romance but she exceeded my expectations with this book. This is the fifth book of the My cowboy series. This book can read as a stand alone but there are previous characters in this story as well. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. I read this book straight through in a few hours. I can’t wait to see what this amazing author will write about next.

Hunter Masters doesn’t want to live his dad’s legacy as a rancher he wants to play football. He is ready to go back to school and play the sport he loves so much. Hunter has no time for girls until he meets the lovely Kennedy. He can’t help but to fall for her. She is smart, sweet, and beautiful but she is hiding something he can’t put his finger on. Will Hunter find the one he has been waiting for or is she just another girl that wants him for the fame?

Love On The Ropes (Love In Action Book 1) by Aviva Vaughn – Review by Jessica Leombruno

Love On The Ropes (Love in Action, #1)Love On The Ropes by Aviva Vaughn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Love on the Ropes is a super cute slow burn co-worker frenemy rom-com. This was as enjoyable as Aviva Vaughn’s last series. Clint Davenport and Erin Hung work for the same morning drive-time radio show Wake Up America “Woo-Ah”. Clint and Erin’s relationship was a little rocky in the beginning with her friendship with Fern and Clint with his awkward nervous talk.

But the laughs are what made their story lovable from the bantering to the random names instead of curse words. But it Avia’s attention to details that makes me feel like I’m right there in the book with her characters. I can’t wait for more of Clint and Erin and to see other co-workers (Fern Haddad)from this series find their HEA.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Relic Hunters series. This fantasy book in a young adult fashion.
I enjoyed this book from the first page to the last page. The characters are fully developed and fun. The story is engaging and is set in Egypt. In this adventure, a sand storm has played havoc in a pyramid in Egypt. The team explores the pyramid but what they do not know is how much trouble they are in because they are disturbing the dead and someone will have to pay for that. I highly recommend this story to see the race against the evil that is coming for them.

Via Mari does is again in this third installment. If you are a fan of mafia fiction, suspenseful romance, or just really good books, this book – no, this author – is a must read. So many amazing characters. Strong men and women – seriously – Serena is amazing and Gio – whew – get me a fan. It’s steamy, it’s edge of your seat dramatic, it’s just really really really good. Run and pick it up. And get all of the series books while you are it – trust me.

Her Blackened Heart is the second book in the Blackened series by Isra Sravenheart. The evil Lady Isra is at it again with her companion and lover, Astrid. Can she lead the good witch Contessia astray? What will Isra do about her enemy Everilda?
As with the first book, I still wish it was written in first-person rather than the narrated third-person. Maybe that’s just personal choice as the story is still interesting and has a twist at the end that definitely came out of left field and was unexpected. Like the first, this story ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, so I’m sure we have not seen the end of Lady Isra yet.

Love on the Ropes : diverse, slow burn, frenemies to lovers, office rom com (Love in Action #1) by Aviva Vaughn

This is the first read by Vaughn and I’ve got to say wowzers. This was a fantastic read and I really can’t wait for more. Vaughn has a certain way of transporting you into the book.

Erin, originally from Hawaii, is now living in Cali. Working at a radio station is the best she has had. She loves her job and she’s also crushing on her boss. The quote I chose for Erin is: “Thank you for the dance.”

Clint, a former TopGun fighter, is now the host for a radio show. He loves what he does and loves the fact that Erin works there as well. He finds himself falling and isn’t sure what to do. The quote I chose for Clint is: “Do I get to keep my arm around you if we try that?”

Highly recommended for romance lovers. Especially ones where frenemies turn lovers.

She’s No Cowgirl is a sports romance book and boy do I love these books!!!! I could not put this book down from the very beginning.
The characters pull you in immediately and you can not but fall in love with the romance and what will happen in the next aspect of this storyline. The chemistry between Hunter and Kennedy is great and you can not help but push for them to have their happy ever after… but will it be in the cards for them or will drama and secrets hinder that journey??? This is definitely a must read!!! And I personally can not wait to read more from this wonderful author.

Faerie’s Magic: a fae shifter romance (Seasons of the Fae Book 2) by Jessica Feyden is a paranormal fantasy romance. It took me a little while to settle into the story, but it soon drew me in. Love was not what any one thought would happen in the most unlikely of circumstances and despite the difference between them. There is a lot of pain, betrayal and hurt in this good story, but it is all worth it in the end. A Fae princess, a wolf shifter and magic and action abound in this wonderful tale. Jessica’s writing and world building, makes it easy to venture on this journey.

Shattered Reality (Summoned Book 1) by C.A. King is a paranormal fantasy story. Things are not as they seem in this book. Is it magic or insanity? There are a lot of secrets and lies as our MC steps back to what was once her home after her parents killing. Now face to face with her past once again our MC must confront that which she never believed. I enjoyed the story but there were parts where it felt a little disjointed and not flowing as well as it could have. Overall, the story held my attention with the mystery that CA intertwined.

Rookie Moves: A Quick Snap Novella. This story was a fun quick read that had me completely hooked. The author creates characters that are complex and easy to connect with. I’m not much for sports type reads but this one may just change my mind on that way of thinking. I laughed and enjoyed getting lost inside this story. While short it’s not hindered in anyway in fact I think it was everything I could want. The storyline is engaging and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. The characters pull you into their world and you won’t want to leave in the end. I’m giving this story a five star review and highly recommend it. Excited to see where this author takes readers next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Relic Hunters series and wow what a book. The adventure continues with Adam Hunter and his fellow team mates from the British Museum who are brought in to help in Egypt where a pyramid has been uncovered that has never been found before.

So the team embark on the journey to discover who or what the pyramid belongs to. Is it hiding treasures from ancient Egypt or is it just one maze of deadly traps and dangerous almost deadly experiences.

Why would all this protection be in place for nothing at all? Is it protecting something special or is it all a disguise to fool people?

The story is gripping and I love how it flips from ancient Egypt times to present day to help build the story and bring it all together.

I really enjoy this series, and this book just adds to it. It is like reading a dark, adult fairytale. It picks up where book one left off. We see and learn so much more of Astrid in this. We also meet new characters who happen upon the dark castle they call home. They are all wonderful, you never know who is good or bad, or what exactly they are up to. Then there is the story itself. Again, twists and turns leave you guessing the whole way.

If you grew up loving fairy tales, but now root for the evil queen, this book and series is for you. It can be read as a stand alone, but you will understand more if you read book one first.

Reign is the third book in The Larussio Legacy series by Via Mari. This is a fantastic romantic suspense series and this book builds on the previous two- there is a lot going for this story, starting with the mafia, then adding of drama, suspense, action, danger, sizzle, romance, a little mystery, and a dose of angst- all wonderfully carried by a really superb cast of characters.
As I have mentioned many times now, I have read all of Via Mari’s books now and have loved them all. So, having said that, I really did have high expectations for this story- especially since the other two are soooo good- so I am happy to say that Via Mari definitely didn’t let me down- as this is every bit as good, if not better than the previous two. I was glued to the pages from the start, entirely invested in the characters and the outcome of the story- especially more so having met Gio and Serena in the previous book/s. I tore my way through the pages, devouring the story- and entirely engrossed the entire time.
As with her other books, there is plenty of suspense woven through the storyline- the tension in parts is quite palpable and had me on the edge of my seat clamouring to know how it all played out.
I can’t wait to see what she does next!

Thank you, Via Mari!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

She’s No Cowgirl by Brooke May was a great 5 star read.
I was pulled in right from the beginning.

From a young age Kennedy was into sports, she was so determined that she even played one year of tackle football. She wasn’t allowed to return to football so she has decided to take a different journey that will allow her to be fully involved in the sports world. Another role that is usually ruled by men, she is determined to prove women can do just as good as men. I love her character so much.

Hunter’s family is in ranching, he is a college football player during the school year. He wants more for himself other than taking over the family business. When Hunter meets Kennedy you can feel the sparks fly and chemistry come off the pages. These two have so much in common with sports and have the same goals.

Will they both be successful in their goals? Can they have a HEA?

Overall I really enjoyed this couple and their story. All of the secondary characters were great. If you’re looking for a read that pulls you right in this is the book for you. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. 1-click and get started today. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Her Billionaire Daddy by Allison West is the first book in the Western Daddy Doms series and was a great read! This book was enthralling from the beginning to the end, with some surprising twists thrown in that I wasn’t expecting. I went into this novel, thinking I was going to get nothing but an erotic read, and I got much more! While there was some erotica, it wasn’t as much as I was expecting, and there was more of a storyline than I was expecting. The storyline was great, and it reminded me a bit of Fifty Shades of Grey. I had trouble putting this book down once I started reading it. This novel is an 18+ book, and I highly recommend it.
