This is my second book by India Kells and the second installment of the Chicago Vigilantes series. I really liked the first book and couldn’t wait to read this one. Urban Justice didn’t disappoint. Sloane (main female character) is working to make the wrongs in her past right by getting rid of Phantom, a deadly drug taking over the streets of Chicago. Professor Luke Radcliffe, who is a former Marine, is our main male character and he’s got his own set of past situations to deal with. How will these two characters come together and help each other? Read this book and find out. I always say this but read them in order!

This was my first book by Evelyn Sola. This was a sweet book. I liked the main female character Miranda, she definitely likes Christmas decorating more than me but it put me in the Holiday spirit for sure. Nick Bane is our main male character, he has a rocky start but I ended up loving him just as much as Miranda. If you’re looking for a cute holiday book, this is the one to pick up and “unwrap” (I know that was cliché but it’s still true!). After this one, I’m interested to see what else Evelyn has for me to get lost in.

This is the sixth book in the Logan McKenna Series and each book is better than the one before it. Valerie Dadvisson has such a vision for her stories. There is never a dull moment. She describes everything in such detail like you were right next to Logan yourself. Logan is expecting happy times ahead. Ben and her have bought a house that needs some tender loving care on the Oregon coast. She is going to be meeting her half-sister, Olivia. Logan has a murder she is going to be investigating while her and Olivia are getting together for the fist time. Will Logan and Oilivia meeting go well? Will Logan and Olivia be on the same page for investigating this murder/accident good? I highly recommend this story to see what happens to the investigation.

The The Sound of Silence by Dakota Willink is a book that will hit you in the feelers. Especially if you have ever experienced domestic abuse. Be aware that if you are still raw about it this book can trigger some negative emotion. However, if you are in a place where you are just sick of that “feeling” this is an encouraging story. A marvelous story about a woman’s struggle to find herself. Although fiction, and rarely do we find the kind of monster that Ethan is, the underlying story is the same. Gianna’s story is all too familiar to me. If you just want to know more about a very real situation that takes place every day, then this book is a must read. Be aware there are adult situations that may not be your cup of tea, but this book will encourage or open your eyes depending on your life experience.
The Bullet Theory (Dr. Nolan Mills Book 1) by Sonya Jesus was a great read! I loved the suspense aspect, I felt like I was at the edge of my seat. Eleanor was such a deep character to follow along. I enjoyed the attention to detail and the depth of Eleanors thought process. I did not want to put this book down!

First, We Kill All the Lawyersis the first book in the Donovan Trait series by Seelie Kay and it really was such a fun read. This is a little different than the other books of hers that I have read- but just as intriguing, clever, and well-woven. This is a paranormal romantic suspense- a great murder mystery with vampires, lawyers, crime and investigation, a serial killer, hidden agendas, revenge, shifters, politics, and all woven with a very original take on vampire lore. Donovan Trait is a highly respected lawyer- a superstar in courtroom circles, but there is more to him than meets the eye. For one, he’s a vampire who’s over 300 years-old. Things take a dangerous and suspenseful turn when someone attempts to murder him. Luckily vampires are hard to kill, or this story would have ended rather quickly. Who has got him in their crosshairs and why? Then other lawyers begin to meet their ‘sticky ends’- and everything points to a serial killer obsessed with lawyers. But apart from all the victims being lawyers, nothing about the case connects or makes sense to Donovan and his ‘team’. The bodies are piling up, with no idea who could be targeted next. Donovan will need to do something to draw out the killer, especially if he is to protect those he cares about. What ensues makes for a gripping and suspenseful read. Add in the intriguing vampire lore details, the other paranormal elements, and a sweet romance- and I was hooked, reading it all in one sitting so I wouldn’t miss a moment. The ending leaves an opening for more- with some tantalizing threads that I hope we get to explore more in future instalments. I hope the next book isn’t too far away, because I can’t wait to continue this series.

Secure Boxed Set: Chase Security Series Books 1-3 By R.L. Dunn 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the Secure Boxed Set: Chase Security Series Books 1-3 by R.L. Dunn. They are stories that pulled me in from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. The books have action, danger, and romance. I was on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. Both the storyline/plot and the characters are amazing. The author does an amazing job of making the characters come alive. I grew to care about them with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. There are suspenseful moments as well as very romantic ones. Don’t miss out on a boxed set that is exciting and entertaining to read. I highly recommend reading them.

All I Want for Christmas By Vivian Fiano 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book All I Want for Christmas by Vivian Fiano. It is a short story that had my emotions going up and down the entire time I was reading it. I loved the plot/storyline and also the characters. The book touched my heart and made me believe in true love and the power of the Christmas season. The author does an amazing job of making a story that may be a bit shorter than other books however it still is a powerful read. I grew to care about the characters with each chapter that I read and wanted them to find happiness. Don’t miss out on an exciting, romantic, and entertaining book. I highly recommend reading it.

This is a cute Christmas story which I had never heard before but I found it enjoyable. It is perfect to read to children as it contains aspects children love such as trolls but also shares the message that Christmas is just about taking but that by giving we can also be happy.
There are 13 Yule Lads who’s mother is the evil troll. Every year they go into villages to cause trouble and take naughty children back to their mother to be made into stew.
However this year, instead of just causing trouble the Yule Lads start leaving little gifts for the children and they realise how amazing it is to see someone happy through their actions.
I almost gave this short story 4 stars but after thinking about it, the only reason I would have done that was because just as I was settled in and wanting to read more, the book ended. Well, I knew it was a short story going in and I normally love that but in this case I wasn’t as fond of it because I was completely enjoying every word and how this author wrote every word, which led me to the 5 stars. This is my first book by this author and if this one is anything to go by then I will be reading many many more.
Really hard to sum up this book without giving anything away, but I can say I felt every emotion I was supposed to feel while reading Kinsley’s story. There were tears during one part and it was so awesome. It was a great Christmas read and really felt like I was lost when it was done. I was imagining so many things for her and Brysen, but will take what I was given and use my imagination on the rest.

Wow. Just wow. I couldn’t turn away as I flew through this emotionally charged book. It was deep, sad, dark, mesmerizing. It was haunting and incredibly real. The author has a real gift. This was an incredible book and one that even with all of the emotion I would recommend.
I love Biglow and Zenk’s collaborations to date and this latest did not disappoint. I was immediately captivated with the book opening and stayed glued to the pages to find out what would happen next. Just a very enjoyable book – I certainly hope to read more!

I really enjoy Nolan’s storytelling and the characters in this series. Jake is a very strong lead and there is quite a bit that unfolds in this book. Tons of detail that helps you definitely plug into the exact place the author wants to transport you to.

Not sure how this is my first book by this author. I just know that after reading this one I will be digging into everything else available. Her writing style hit me in the best way and I loved every single thing about this book, even the parts I hated because they were written so that I felt the emotions and the feelings coming straight off the pages.
I know this was a book written by an author that did a lot of research and spoke to a lot of survivors and reading it was not easy in many parts but… it absolutely brought awareness to me anyway that this does happen, maybe not in the exact way this storyline played out but the fear, the feeling trapped, the emotional breakdown of a person’s everything happens and I can not even imagine.
Just focusing now on this story, Gia has become my hero, I never thought in a million years that this book would end the way it did. I loved Derek but for some reason he did not play the part in this story like I thought he would and I’m so very impressed with how this author handled both of these characters. I was reminded of a movie while reading this and then the last part of the book hit and another movie came into play. I would love to see this one on TV, taking both of the movies I was reminded of and putting them together into one would be amazing. This book held a unique storyline that I’ve never read before and I’m completely impressed with the entire experience, even the parts I wanted to just block out.
There is definitely a need for the trigger warnings as I’m sure this will affect many, but I’m so so happy I chose to read this book and can not wait to read more from this author.
The Bullet Theory (Dr. Nolan Mills Book 1) by Sonya Jesus
5 Stars
This is not my first book by this author but I do think it might be one of my favorites. I could not put it down once I started and in some places had to slow down so I did not finish so fast. The suspense was off the charts and the way this author weaved things around had me all kinds of messed up.
I felt like I truly understood where Eleanor was in this story, all the way through. Her character was written beautifully and I felt the emotions that were written. Another story where the characters were portrayed enough to let you connect with them and Sonya Jesus has that mastered. I also loved this storyline and it was given to me by multiple POVs. This used to not be a favorite of mine but has really grown on me and getting the different perspectives gives me the whole story and I love that.
This book had me asking myself all kinds of questions of what I believe is right and wrong, quite a fine line when you get into this story. I am so happy with how this book ended. I was really worried there for a bit and love that this is book 1 of a new series that I can not wait to read more of.

He’s a broken man searching through the past for answers.
She’s his childhood best friend he had no idea he was in love with.
Thomas Capshaw never thought he’d put his dreams of being a sketch artist on the back burner and end up working in New York City far from home. The very last thing he expects is the inheritance of his famous grandfather’s beach cottage on the sandy shores of Florida where he spent his childhood summers.
Emeline Fischer is an aspiring artist trying to make ends meet, working an assortment of odd jobs while painting her dreams on canvas in hopes of landing her own gallery show, someday. When she is Thomas’ waitress during her shift at the local beach diner, she immediately recognizes her sensitive childhood friend who promised, long ago, to protect her from her unstable home life when they were teens.
The two friends take a journey into their past through a box of photos left behind at Cap Cottage and rediscover their mutual passion for art – and each other. Thomas doesn’t plan to fall in love with Emmy – but, maybe, he’s always been in love with her.
Can he forgive himself for his past mistakes and start over in the only place that ever felt like home? Or, will his guilt and the demands of his cutthroat, big-city career prevent him from following his heart and reuniting with the only woman he ever truly loved?

I give Hunted by Sarah Biglow & Molly Zenk, 4 stars.
I really enjoy how the authors put their own spin on this vampire romance. Introducing the role playing game to me was ingenious. It made for an interesting and new base of a story. But this is not all this book has to offer. The characters in the story are what really makes this book so good. It’s not only the main characters, either. There are so many secondary characters that were quite interesting as well. I hope to see more of them in books to come too. But let us not forget Edith and Darren. They both have their own issues and misconceptions they have to try to overcome. The struggle and how they deal with them really make this book shine.
If you are a fan on interesting vampire romance, this book is for you.

The Sound Of Silence is part of the Leave Me Breathless World by Dakota Willink. This is the first book I have read/listened to by this author, but definitely not the last. This book grabbed my attention from the very first page. I couldn’t stop listening. The issues of abuse were brought to the forefront and I believe that Ms. Willink did a great job bringing these issues to light. It is frightening to think how many people are affected by abuse.
Gianna is such a strong woman and was brave enough to escape the heartache that her marriage became. Derek is strong, stoic and patient. He also had the strength to give Gia the time and tools what she needed to protect herself. He is a really good man. And then we have Ethan, he is a psychopath who showed his true colors in the end. This is an intense book that has warnings for triggers, but my hope is that anyone who reads this book would get something out of it, be it courage to leave an abusive situation or compassion for those in that situation.
Sean Crisden, Sarah Puckett and Connor Crais did a wonderful job with the narration of this book. I have listened to books by Sarah in the past and she is always excellent. She brought Gia to life. This is my first listen of both Sean and Connor, but I will be looking out for them in future audiobooks. They have really nice and sexy voices.
This book has me sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen in the end. I really look forward to read more books by Dakota Willink. Brilliant is my best description of this story.

This was a very emotional read. Going into this I was very naïve about eating disorders and this book definitely opened my eyes. The story and characters felt so real and connecting. This book focuses more on the male point of view and my heart was breaking for Wes as we followed his journey into this awful disorder. We also get a glimpse of how it affects the people closest to Wes. The author wrote an exceptional story and I cannot wait to read more from her. I know this story will stick with me for a long time. I highly recommend this book.
The Sound Of Silence is part of the Leave Me Breathless World by Dakota Willink. This is the first book I have read/listened to by this author, but definitely not the last. This book grabbed my attention from the very first page. I couldn’t stop listening. The issues of abuse were brought to the forefront and I believe that Ms. Willink did a great job bringing these issues to light. It is frightening to think how many people are affected by abuse. Gianna is such a strong woman and was brave enough to escape the heartache that her marriage became. Derek is strong, stoic and patient. He also had the strength to give Gia the time and tools what she needed to protect herself. He is a really good man. And then we have Ethan, he is a psychopath who showed his true colors in the end. This is an intense book that has warnings for triggers, but my hope is that anyone who reads this book would get something out of it, be it courage to leave an abusive situation or compassion for those in that situation.
This book has me sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen in the end. I really look forward to read more books by Dakota Willink. Brilliant is my best description of this story.
A very powerful emotional roller-coaster read about a very rare topic, eating disorder in men. The story runs in two timelines, present, and past. The past tells a story of a young Wes, who has always lived in the shadow of his older brother, a wrestling champion. He meets a girl Caila, who wants to diet for her ballet dancing. He gets into this dieting habit with her and falls deeper and deeper to extreme diet. As his brother dies, he somehow lets this diet take control over his life. And as time progresses, in the present timeline, he is very sick and refuses to get out of it. It is a very intense book, and communicates a message that one is responsible for their own actions. If one gets into the trouble, it is one’s one responsibility to get out of it. A very unique tale, told beautifully. It is heart wrenching.
Talk about one twisted story! It’s a dark romance with suspense built right in. I love reading stories like this. They keep me on the edge of my seat. Rooting for the characters to overcome themselves and others to survive.
The storyline is fan-freaking-tastic! It’s up and down and had me looking for hope in her story. I ran through a gambit of emotions and near the end? I could feel and hope right along with the main character. I AM

I really enjoyed this book. I found the story interesting and fun. The best part of the story was watching the love between Edith and Darren. They are two vastly different individuals that were on two divergent paths. It was a joy watching them find and discover each other and their love. The story itself had a lot of twists and turns which made for a very interesting read. I look forward to reading the next installment in this adventure by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk.

I love the supernatural genre, especially vampires, so I was quick to read this book and it did not disappoint! I was really intrigued by the concept of this book and the human, vampire relations and I could not put this book down. If you are looking for a quick paranormal read with an amazing storyline and great characters, this is the book for you.
