The Sound Of Silence is an outstanding psychological romantic thriller by Dakota Willink that had me on the edge of my seat throughout. Prior to reading The Sound of Silence I had never read any of Dakota Willink’s work but if this book is anything to go by then I will definitely be reading more. This book is very dark and the author rightly gives a trigger warning for distressing scenes of abuse. So if you can get past the dark scenes then this book is a fantastic thrilling read. It had me gripped from the very first page, right up to the very end. It is the proverbial ‘page turner’. Gianna’s life probably looks wonderful to those outside; happily married to the chief of police. This could not be further from the truth. But hey, he’s a policeman, who is she going to tell her story to that will believe her. A chance meeting with a handsome stranger on her wedding day, followed by another chance meeting with the stranger a few years later could be the one thing that changes Gianna’s life. I absolutely adored the character of Derek. He is the exact opposite of everything Ethan (Gianna’s husband) ever was. He’s patient, caring, loving and gentle and the way he interacts with Gianna has my heart melting. This book, although very dark in places is a fantastic read. There’s danger, intrigue, evil and violence and then there’s love and compassion and romance. I would definitely recommend this book. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could.

Yule Lads Legend: Iceland’s Jólasveinar by Heidi Herman Five Stars
Yule Lads Legend: Iceland’s Jólasveinar is a wonderful Christmas Tale based on Iceland folklore by Heidi Herman. This is a great book for all ages. I read this book to my seven year old nephew and he was in awe. The illustrations are amazing. This is the perfect book to find the happiness in giving. I highly recommend adding this book to your Christmas storytelling tradition.
When your life is finally falling into place, is it too good to be true.
Logan is finally getting her life in order, first Ben then they decide to buy a house and looking into fixing it up but when another murder happens guess whos in the middle to try and solve it. Yes Logan.
With her discovering in the last book of her half sister Olivia and worrying about meeting her, they uncover a murder. The Collins and Ellis have had a family feud dating back years but when Charlie is killed and Wade Ellis is the prime suspect things is going to get busy and bring in the family feud of old.
I love this series, from the first book til now you have seen how Logan has grown and overcome her family secrets and find love. This story has the same murder, twists and turns with the added intrigue within the story and as always the book is well written and will have you at the edge of your seat. Logan is a independant, Sassy woman and with the help of the secondary character make this series a great one to read.
I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book in the series.

The first book in the Chase security series starts off strong. Ian and Cassie are both very strong willed characters. Cassie life is falling into place when an assignment conjures up past experiences and not good ones. Cassie has been through alot in her life and there slot of backstory in this book. The storyline flows and is well developed.
Book 2 Secure Again This is the second book in the series. This is a thrilling read and action packed from the start. There are a ton of characters who play parts in this story. It’s a well written experience you feel your best pounding as you walk through with these. Martin is the leading male and going back home has changed him. I love Elizabeth she’s an inspiration character. A few twist and turns.
Book 3 Secure Heart
Another great book by Dunn as part of the Chase security series. I adore Julian and Holly’s they are such characters. Julian having previously made an appearance in a previous book I enjoyed getting to know him more in this one. Each character has thier own unique personality and characteristics . I highly recommend reading this series.

This is the second in the series and it stands up to the same standard as the first. It’s fast paced, filled with characters that make me want to know them better and is quite the page turner.
To say I loved it is an understatement. The story moves along. It is filled with action and suspense. I have all the characters in Noctem in a list. Each one has different qualifications and skills. I can’t wait to learn about them all. This one is Sloane. She is an ex cop and runs as the vigilante. She has had some difficult past and it’s nerve wracking watching her trying to change. She goes through some ups an downs in dealing with the past and self doubt.
Overall I enjoyed this one as much as I did the first. It isn’t necessary to read book 1 before reading this. It might enrich your enjoyment but not necessary.

Since discovering this series and all the clever titles, I’ve fallen in love with Carrie Pulkinen’s writing style and story telling. She is an amazing writer, truly. I wanted to read this story, since it is apart of the series but I feel like my feelings will be bias unfortunately. I dislike Christmas and since I have such strong feelings about it – I feel as if I couldn’t get completely lost in the story. The reason I still gave this a decently high rate is because the story telling is still brilliant, I love the characters and the cross over as well. If you like Christmas and all the holly, jolly feels it brings, then I recommend this book to you.

Wow, this book was intense. It was my first Dakota Willink read and also my first Black Rose Collection novel. So I wasn’t used to reading darker titles. That being said, The Sound of Silence instantly gripped me! Characters who weren’t who you thought they would be and moments that kept you guessing and gasping. There is the non-spoiler alert of domestic violence as mentioned in the blurb, so be prepared to hate characters but since that is obviously the intention of the author, I would highly recommend this book!

Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie (Jake Wolfe #1) by Mark Nolan Was a thrilling 5 star read that pulls you in right from the beginning.
Jake is working on a job that had him following a lawyer, things take a dangerous twist when the lawyer is killed and he captures a picture of the killer known as The Artist. The Artist is fully aware of Jake and adds him to his list, he has a job to take out three dirty lawyers and he won’t let anyone get in his way.
Jake has a friend on the police force that he assists, he was also in the Marines with him so they have a bond. Can they find the killer before he strikes again?
Overall this was a great read. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. You won’t want to put it down until you finish. We get multiple POV which I love so we can get into the killer’s head as well. If you’re looking for a great read, 1-click and get started today.

The Secure Box set is made up of 3 books. All of which are very easy to read. Who doesn’t love books with strong alpha men, action, romance, and excitement. The books definitely will not bore anyone. I enjoyed reading these books and found the characters lovable. The author did a great job with the plot of all 3 books to keep the reader entertained and interested in what will happen next. I found myself looking at the clock thinking I need to go to get to sleep but let me just read one more chapter first.

Dunn – Review by Michelle Mulvey
We first meet Donovan Trait, a handsome, dashing and confident lawyer who has never lost a case and is known to many as the hottest lawyer in Chicago, he knows his legislation and he also knows his ways around a judge and jury, he is also a three hundred year old vampire. The case in question this time is the illegal seizure of goods and harassment by law enforcement of his clients, he wins again of course, but as he is heading away from the courtroom, a brief tryst with a judge afterwards and through the lunchtime rush in the streets surrounding it, he receives a text message which is out of the ordinary, but believes that it is just a friend playing one of their usual pranks, that is until he ends up in hospital after receiving a stab wound to the side and collapses in the street. He wakes up in the hospital and on an IV blood transfusion and to the dulcet tones of his secretary pretending to be his fiancee in order to access his hospital room to get his sorted and out, at least once he has spoken to the police first, luckily for him, the first one on the scene is one he knows and won’t ask too many questions about how he is already healing after receiving a wound which would kill a human.
Next we meet the mystery killer and find out that they are very disturbed by the fact that Donovan Tate isn’t dead and that there is no mention of this in the newspapers at all, she then decides to give it another try because her plan would not succeed unless he was the first one to die. After that, it would seem random as they would all be killed in different ways and by seemingly different people, she had written her list out and was determined to follow through with it and kill all the lawyers who had wronged her and her family in the past.
A couple of days later and Donovan is back in the courtroom and cross examining another witness, he again succeeds in this and after a visit to his sister, who discusses his behaviour both inside and outside the courtroom to try to glean some information about his latest conquest and why this one might be the one he settles down with, this as well as who may have it in for him within the professional boundaries. After he leaves another night of passion with his very human lady love, he gets in a taxi to go to court, but he is unnerved by the behaviour of his driver and so calls his friend in law enforcement to subtly check it out while he is being driven to work, it is just before his appearance that he decides to go to the bathroom to straighten out his suit when he is shot by a mystery woman and is again awoken by the dulcet tones of his secretary.
It is after this that he decides to stay out of the spotlight and lay low as this is being investigated and the killer is made to believe that he is at death’s door and in a private facility, this encourages her to move onto the next names on her list and as the bodies pile up and there are no more leads that things get more serious for everyone involved.
Will the dead lawyers stay dead or will the true nature of the victims come to light? Will the killer be found and caught, or will they do as they say and “Kill all the lawyers!”? This is a thriller with a dash of romance which will leave you guessing until the end and wanting to see who is committing all these dastardly deeds in Chicago, but the only way to find out who it is is to read on and find out.

Urban Justice (A Chicago Vigilantes Novel Book 2) by India Kells – Review by Gail Guerrero
Five Stars
This story had me hooked. India Kellé definitely knew what she was doing in this second book. The characters had chemistry out of this world. The first few pages you have to push through because Luke makes you want to slap him. With how much of a douche he is. Sloan was a very interesting character as she was the one out fighting for justice. Getting to the dirty truth. You always think of Batman when you think vigilante. But here we have a woman who past is anything but indulgent. Fighting for a city that will never thank her. I really liked how the author wrote Luke and Sloan coming together. The author made it all seem effortless. I would’ve like to explore those tunnels too. The thought of discovering something unknown to the world. To be apart of history in a permanent way. Definitely get this book so you can dive into the mystery.

This book starts with an attorney at law winning yet another case and letting a guilty party go free and destroy another life in the process and when they go to celebrate with their colleagues at one of the exclusive country clubs with a round of golf, they find that they are not as immune to the repercussions as they thought when they are killed by an assassin and one of the witnesses is Jake Wolfe, a photojournalist who has been tailing him for a story and manages to take a picture of the assassin. Jake is not your typical run of the mill photojournalists either, he has a direct line to his friend and police officer Terell who he calls the incident in to and tries to help with the investigation as best that he can, he also has the ability to remain calm under pressure and take note of situations in a more concise manner than most.
We next meet the assassin as he leaves the scene in a meticulously planned manner, he has planned everything about this murder down to the smallest detail and is more than happy with the result, apart from the photographer who managed to get a picture of him, but it is something he will deal with in the future, it is only a photographer after all, so he returns to his hotel to plan the next stage of his plan. Meanwhile, Terell has arrived at the crime scene and is speaking to Jake while also receiving the evidence that he has collected, which is also being shared on the media by Jake as a live update on what is known about the case as it develops, this infuriates the assassin and he decides to up the ante and to make Jake his next target after all.
These two, the assassin and the journalist will soon be entangled in an epic chase around San Francisco as the bodies keep piling up and the investigation gets more and more convoluted as the police try to find out who the assassin is and who his next target is going to be. Add into the mix other members of the San Francisco Police Department who are not all on the right side of the law themselves and a highly intelligent dog who knows more than he is letting on and this is going to be a case that nobody will forget in a hurry.
Will Jake manage to use his skills and catch The Artist, or will he fall victim to The Artist’s employers plan and lead to them getting what they want? This is a thriller which is fast paced, action packed and will leave you wanting to know what happens in the next installments, well worth a read.

Urban Justiceis the second book in the Chicago Vigilantes series by India Kells. I am really enjoying this series, and I think it would make a great television series too. As in the first book, the premise of this story/series grabbed me right off-the-bat. The whole vigilante justice angle mixed with plenty of action, danger, the underworld, angst, drama, and a new deadly drug- really set this off for a fast-paced and intriguing ride. Ms. Kells held my attention the whole way through this engrossing story- and I am looking forward to seeing what happens with the rest of the series!

Why can’t I give this more than five stars?!?! Lynne Russell has done it again. PJ Santini is a heroine with such sass – can I call her my spirit animal? This series is set in my childhood backyard with family members highlighted that feel like she has interviewed my own family. For me this book and series is amazingly relatable, strong, intriguing, and pure fun. It is magically put together with the perfect balance of whodunit, romantic tension, designer labels, and sarcastic wit. I LOVED this book and LOVE this series and need more now. Please? Pretty please?

This is a twisty story that reminds me of a soap opera. It’s not my favorite of this series but still good. Logan wants to spend time with her half sister, Olivia. But murders occur and somehow Logan gets involved. Not really sure how she did that and became the focus of the killer. That to me was weird. I really didn’t see much relationship building either.
The story flows nicely and the characters are good. It’s a nice little murder mystery. This is entertaining and nicely done.

I give Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie: A Gripping Thriller (Jake Wolfe Book 1) by Mark Nolan 4 stars.
The characters are what really make this book for me. Jake and his dog have both been through a lot and struggle with their pasts. Finding each other was the best thing that happened to them both. These characters I found so endearing and realistic. The secondary characters round out the story well too and really make this a great book.
Then there is the story itself. Very detailed and suspenseful, the author has a way of making you feel like you have been dropped right into this book alongside Jake. I loved the progression of the story and could not put it down until I was finished.
If you are a fan of strong characters and a thrilling story, this book is for you.

Gianluca: A Standalone Enemies-to-Lovers Office Romance (Marini Family Romance Book 1) by Isabella Cassazza is a contemporary romance story. Isabella takes us to one of the beautiful cities of love, Roma and takes you to the Tuscan sun. It also takes you into the cut throat world of fashion and one of the top fashion houses. The characters are fully realised and the chemistry starts off slow but soon builds up. Gianluca is a bit of a hardened man but finding love made me see him in a different light. It was easy to feel along with them, all the banter and frustration, the angst and the drama will keep you steadily turning the pages.

Love Heels!: The TV News Business Can be Murder by Lynne Russell is the third book in the PJ Santini series and was a really entertaining read! This is the first book I’ve read from this author, and apart from just a few instances in the novel I didn’t feel like I missed much at all, not reading the first two books first. This series was entertaining, thrilling in parts, and full of comedy. PJ’s grandmother had me laughing out loud throughout the whole thing! She was absolutely hilarious. I loved the crazy Italian family, it made the story even better in my opinion. The storyline was fascinating and I really enjoyed the characters. I can’t wait to read more of this series in the future!

This was my first book by Amy McKinley. It won’t be my last. I found another favorite author! This book stole me the second I started reading it. I couldn’t put it down. Adeline Rossi is our main female character. She’s a head strong, smart, driven female who knows what she wants in life. Is set in her way of not “ending up like her mom”, and feeling like she missed out on her goals in life. Stone Crenshaw is our main male character and he’s a business tycoon who is a workaholic. They have an interesting meeting. While pretending to be engaged, things start to boil. This is unlike any other “fake fiancé” books I’ve read. Absolutely recommend and can’t wait to find more books by Amy McKinley.

Urban Justice (A Chicago Vigilantes Novel #2) by India Kells
5-stars
Urban Justice is another phenomenal book by India Kells. This is the second book in the Chicago Vigilantes series, a series that should be read in order as this book follows the first. This author never ceases to amaze me with all of the detail, which makes it so easy to picture everything playing out in my mind, keeping me highly entertained the whole way through.
I loved Sloane and Luke’s story and being able to follow along in their action-packed journey filled with so much character development. The two headstrong characters had me on my toes the whole way through constantly guessing how it would all play out, and I couldn’t be happier with how it ended.
If you’re looking for an action packed read with never a dull moment, steamy scenes and great characters look no further this is the series for you! I promise you will not be disappointed.

Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie is a phenomenal thriller read. From the very first chapter I was hooked! I found the characters really easy to connect with and the storyline was highly entertaining. It’s action-packed, intense, funny and incredibly detailed, a real page turner. I loved all the thought that went into this series, it’s truly one of a kind! I can’t wait to dive into the rest of this series.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for their next thriller read!

First We Kill All The Lawyers by Seelie Kay is the first book on the Donovan Trait series. This is quite a suspenseful story and it one that will absolutely grab your attention from page one! The author has really managed to keep this book interesting the whole way through. She throws in so many twists and turns that you are racing to get through it to find out how it will all end. I loved the main character as well. I thought he was such a well developed character it was so easy to connect with him. I wanted to read more about him even after thy r book had finished. This is a strong start to a new series and I am already excited to see what will be next!

Urban Justice by India Kells is the second book in the Chicago Vigilantes series. This is a fantastic follow up to the first book and was just as gripping a read! The book was intense and fast paced from start to finish. This is the type of book that you just have to read in one go because you just can’t put it down. At times it honestly felt like the pages just turned themselves. It was great to get back to these characters and their stories. They are intriguing and work so well together. It was brilliant to see their relationship developing throughout this story. India Kells has become one of those authors that I don’t question whether or not to get the book it is just a given that I will. She has an excellent writing style that really engages you as the reader. This is a fantastic series and one I would highly recommend.

Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie is the first book in the Jake Wolfe series. The story line is intriguing. There is a good amount of action and suspense as you read. I love the addition of the dog as an integral part of the book. That being said, there are a few places where the story is slowed a little by some filler that could have been cut and still left a superb adventure. Overall, a good read.

The Sound of Silence (Leave Me Breathless) by Dakota Willink
TRIGGER WARNING! This is the first book I’ve read by Willink and it won’t be my last. This book is very clear about a trigger warning and for that I am glad. This book will leave you hanging on the edge of your seat.
Gianna doesn’t know what is going to happen. She went from being happy and single to being unhappy and married. She meets a stranger on her wedding day and runs into him three years later. The quote I chose for Gianna is: “Then it’s a yes— definitely yes! This is great! Oh my gosh, I could kiss you right now!”
Derek met a beautiful girl that he calls the runaway bride. Three long years pass, but that doesn’t stop him from thinking of her. Imagine his surprise when he runs into her. The quote I chose for Derek is: “No, we’ve definitely met before. Your hair is different but I’d never forget that face. You’re the runaway bride!”
Highly recommended for Dark Romantic Suspense lovers.

So the story focuses around marital abuse and at times my heart broke when I was listening to this it was so gut-wrenching. From very early on you know exactly what it is going g to be happening in this book. I feel like the author handled it really well and respectively and sensitively too. I really like that the author tackled these topics and it was written really well.
The narrators of the audiobook did a fantastic job with this story and really brought it to life and also handled it with such care.
I always love a good a Vampire book, and Donovan Trait is great he is a 300 year old Vampire who just happens to be a Lawyer, he is confident, Hot and Charismatic. But there is someone who wants his blood, he is top of their hit list of all the Lawyers they want dead. But when they try to kill Donovan and he doesn’t die will they realise his secret? This story had me hooked from the start, its well written and there is some great characters also a bit of romance.
