This is the second book in this series. I enjoyed it just as much as the first one. This author keeps putting out books and i am impressed with every single one. I get pulled in from the very first page and I can’t put it down until I have devoured every last word. It was fast paced and I enjoyed all of the action that this book had. Men and women fight for justice and I am completely here for it! I am looking forward to reading more by this author!! And I would absolutely 100% recommend this to any of my friends that are looking for a great read to pass the time with! Happy Reading!

Urban Justice is the second book in the Chicago Vigilantes series. You could read it as a standalone because the author does a good job of giving bits of backstory, but you’ll get a better feel for the setup if you read book one. This story starts out with action and keeps you turning the pages! I liked Sloane. She’s brave and dedicated to her mission. While it did feel like the attraction to Luke was a bit abrupt, their connection is still hot and steamy. With the action, danger, mystery, and suspense, Urban Justice makes a great rainy-day reading adventure!

Unwrapped is the first book I have read by Evelyn Sola. This Is an insta-love holiday read. The book flowed and the characters were interesting. Nick and Miranda have chemistry but they overcome the obstacles stacked in their way. This left me feeling great. I can’t wait to read more books by Ms. Sola. Reviewed by @sunbarn

When Rune Leveau is approached by a charmingly dangerous, cybernetically altered, corporate spy, St. Benedict, his request seemed simple: use her magical talent to help him find an elusive criminal named Anna Masterson. But Rune has a dangerous secret – she is Anna Masterson.
Over the past six years, St. Benedict has searched for the Masterson files, a computer program rumored to do the impossible…cast magic spells. The technology could reshape the world. His last hope is this finder of the lucky devil, but the finder is proving difficult and he isn’t going to take no for an answer.
Set in an alternate Chicago, where technology and magic are in competition with each other, this fast-paced cat-and-mouse chase makes The Finder of the Lucky Devil a welcome addition to your urban fantasy/cyberpunk audio library.

High school history teacher April Carter never asked to be an angel. When she dies at the young age of thirty, she should go to heaven like a normal person. Instead, she wakes up in the afterlife as an angel-in-training with Damian as her mentor. She had enough of the insufferable man in life. Now…
She might as well be in hell.
Damian plans to help April cross over and be done with her. Being assigned as her trainer is the last thing he needs. She’s stubborn and strong-willed, and she’s ignited a fire in his soul he didn’t think could ever burn again.
But April might not be cut out to be an angel.
Can Damian teach her the ways of the guardians?
Or will her stubbornness be the end of them both?
If you like steamy romance with tortured heroes, you’ll love this enemies-to-lovers paranormal romance.
Carrie Pulkinen is a paranormal romance author who has always been fascinated with things that go bump in the night.

Before she decided to turn her love of the written word into a career, Carrie spent the first part of her professional life as a high school journalism and yearbook teacher. She loves good chocolate and bad puns, and in her free time, she likes to read, drink wine, and travel with her family.
The Sound of Silence by Dakota Willink is a Gut Wrenching Romantic Suspense that will literally take you on one heck of an emotional rollercoaster ride. I will add there may be some parts that maybe a be trigger for some with domestic violence and abuse. This is a beautifully written story that you can this author poured there heart and soul into it. From the very beginning I was drawn in and found myself lost in the pages and on the edge of my seat. I had a feeling what kind of person Ethan was and knew right away which direction this story was going to go. I haven’t personally ever been in this situation but I’ve got friends and family that have and its heartbreaking to think of the things they went through. Gia is a woman who has been through so much in life, she lost her mom to cancer and finds herself working at a bar but has dreams of much bigger things. Ethan is a man who on the outside seems to be everything any woman could ever dream about he is Chief of police. She quickly finds out is he’s anything but the dotting husband. Then there’s Derek who I pretty much love his character and his patience with Gia. Find out what happens next. I recommend reading this book. I don’t want to give to give to much away about this story. Im definitely going to check out more books by this author.

Life’s a Witch (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 3) by Carrie Pulkinen – Review by Gail Guerrero
Four Stars
I couldn’t stop laughing through this whole story. The characters were hilarious and well written especially Crimson. From the first page she had me laughing. Her filter is missing. She is a clumsy witch but it hasn’t stopped her from being who she is. The demon anonymous was funny. I couldn’t help but to enjoy this story. Mike is an interesting character as well. I have fun with this one and can’t wait to read more. It put a twist on the supernatural. In most stories you hear about the paranormal not interacting well together. Here it’s a beautiful grouping of diverse characters. Rosemary can suck my toe with her serious control issues. She just did too much for me. Overall a good read with it serious moments but still making you laugh.

The Bullet Theory by Sonya Jesus is not my first book by this author but is the first book in the Dr. Nolan Mills series. This book was nothing like I’ve read of hers before, yet still awesome!

Dr. Nolan Mills is the therapist Eleanor hires. Will he help her? How does he fit in? Read this book to find out all these answers. Can’t wait for the next one!

I have been eagerly waiting for Urban Justice, book 2 in the Chicago Vigilante Series, to come out. I loved the first book and love this one even more. The author writes in such a way that you want to read the book so you learn what happens, what situations the characters find themselves in, and see how they solve things. I love the Sloane, the strong female lead and the rest of her team who all have each other’s backs. The professor and former Marine, Luke, is a great addition and helps Sloane search the underground world to stop a dangerous drug. Although the book can be read alone, I highly suggest you read book 1 of the series first.

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind with her storytelling. This is the third book of the New Orleans Nocturnes series. You should read these books in order to understand what is going on. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. The storyline kept me so addicted I read the book all the way through in one sitting. I can’t wait to see what happens next in this awesome series.

Wow! Starvation by Molly Fennig, hit me right in my feelers. Although this story is about an eating disorder, I think she nails it on a lot of disorders and how that feels and how it works. For me her descriptions of grief were hauntingly accurate. She has put together a great little story that accurately describe the emotional turmoil that many people feel and live with every day. Read this book, it will open your eyes.
New twist on vampires for me. Hunted by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk has a lot going for it. I love the characters and the unique plotline of the story. Sounds like a great new series that I will be watching for and reading. I would like to see a little more world developing going on but there is lots of good dialogue. Reader beware there is some hot and steamy adult situations in this one.

What a story! I loved this! Couldn’t put it down! The story is enthralling! I mean a main character that’s easy to hate/love and has so much growth potential. Plus he speaks Italian? YES Please! Actually I love all these characters. Some we get to really know. Others we get a smidgen of knowledge. A few are past characters (Ice Tigers Book 1). All are intriguing, sassy and simply wonderful. Callie is a sweet character that is the complete opposite of Gianluca. That makes for some great banter and sexual tension. I don’t want to give any of this wonderful story away other than I highly recommend. Just read it!
I really can’t wait for more in this series. All the characters fill my heart with happiness. The storyline is not all rainbows and sunshine bit has some darker times too. It draws the reader in with the exciting characters and a strong, fun story.

This book starts with Eleanor Devero and Kace as they are recovering from the loss of their child and a look into Eleanor’s thought patterns and despair as she spirals further into the darkness in her mind as she thinks about their job and how it puts them in the line of fire and that is exactly why they have lost what they have lost, the scars are there from the physical healing her body has already been going through, but it is the psychological scars which are hitting her hardest at the moment and drawing away from Kace seems to be her only option to stop the pain she is going through, even though he is going through it too. As she remembers the scenario where she was injured, she keeps replaying it trying to figure out who would have done it to her and she cannot accept that the police have stopped investigating and left the case open as there were no clues or leads to follow anymore and that is when she started investigating everyone around her who might even be slightly related to the case, this is also why she is now on unpaid leave and is going to have to attend mandatory counselling sessions. Since the case has been put on the backburner and the case surrounding the Bullet Man has come in, all the focus has been on that and trying to find the proxy killer behind it, but there aren’t many leads to follow there either, or at least, none that are of any use, they are chasing their tails and the only thing turning up are bodies and solved crimes attached to them.
The Bullet Man in question has developed a theory that when a bullet and a tortured heart exist together, the only variable is opportunity and so he has set up an experiment to investigate just that, by choosing test subjects and interacting with them to build up a profile of whether his intervention would help them or not. Having the ability to do this experiment as part of his actual profession gives him access to possible candidates and the resources and ability to solve the unsolvable without bias.
As Eleanor enters the therapist’s office with Kace for her first session, on the outside, she is unkempt, unfocussed and unable to look them in the eye, she is just a mess and a ghost of her former self and that is just the tip of the iceberg, inside, she is hurt, guilty, angry and just a plain wreck of her former self, she also wants revenge. Kace is doing most of the talking though until he is asked to leave so that the two of them can start their individual session before moving onto joint sessions as a couple. After the session Kace asks how she got on and Eleanor explains her homework to him and this bring up more feelings to the surface that she would rather weren’t there, they then go to the precinct where she can start to work with Kace on the Bullet Man case and start to get her bearings back and Kace thinks that her insights could help them with solving the case, but with all that Eleanor knows about the Bullet Man, she only wants to hire him.
What Eleanor doesn’t realise is that the therapist who she has been sent to is the Bullet Man and that as she is trying to piece herself back together with his help, he is also studying her, but when things come to a head, will Eleanor be able to decide what to do and will she follow her instincts or run as far away as she can? This is a thriller with twists and turns which keep you guessing throughout and at the fast pace you will go through this book, it is well worth giving it your full attention.

Life’s a witch, what a perfect title to grab your attention. Well, Carrie Pulkinen has, yet again, out done herself. She has, again, created another soul grabbing masterpiece. Honestly, the amount of creativity and feels Carrie puts into her stories and characters leaves me completely speechless. It is more than just words on a page but a sense of realness and perfectly done story telling. This story had me on the edge of my seat, burying my face into my hands while I laughed and fanning myself. But seriously – it yanks you in with a ride or die friendship, recovering demons that go to AA meetings, a ‘kind of’ witch that is more than just what she can or can not cast, a spontaneous lust turned into love… what more could you ask for? You will not regret diving into this gem. My only warning is this story will grab you and hold you captive until the very last page.

I am new to Evelyn Sola but when I saw the gorgeous cover I knew I had to know what was between them. I am really glad I took the chance because this book is so adorable and perfect for the holiday season. This year is difficult for everyone and we have more time on our hands to do the simple things like read all the Holiday themed novels lol. This is a perfect addition to that list if you have one. The story is a contemporary romance with some age gap issues and opposites attract type sidelines. Miranda and Nick may have some odds stacked against them and will of course have some situations that will impede the newfound romance before it can really get off the ground. I loved these two though and was cheering for them to find that magical holiday feel and happily ever after. It was an ending I couldn’t have been more pleased with and now I look forward to seeing what else is available from Evelyn Sola!

Lynne Russell has once again brought us more fabulous PJ Santini in this third book of the series, Love Heels! The TV News Business Can be Murder. This book is the perfect lazy weeknd read and will keep you entertained as you try to figure out the outcome for Santini this time. I love these books because they really bring a realness that makes you feel as if you are right there with the character. It is accurate and hilarious at times while keeping the adventure level turned all the way up. I won’t detail too much more on the contents of this PJ Santini case other than what else is given in the synopsis but I can assure you this is one you don’t want to miss.

This is the story of Crimson Oliver, a witch who just can’t catch a break with her magic and everytime she casts a spell, something goes wrong and Mike Cortez, a demon in rehabilitation who makes deals with the devil and owns a restaurant all at the same time.
The story starts with Crimson as she is about to go in front of the Council of Elders of her coven, which is in direct relation to her latest magical mishap. As the Council convenes and Rosemary takes her place as head priestess, she asks one of the other witches to read out the charges against Crimson which, if they are found to be true, will .end up with Crimson having her power bound and a life in exile away from other witches for the rest of her life and Crimson has no intention of letting that happen as she is not guilty of any of the charges and given the result of her questioning, it looks like that is exactly what will happen, that is until she invokes the goddess and the right to challenge the high priestess to a magic battle and the goddess deems that it shall go ahead, much to the amazement of the rest of the coven, especially Rosemary. It is decided that the two witches have one month to prepare for the challenge and the winner takes the role of High Priestess and the loser has their magic bound and must live in exile, but Crimson is sure that Rosemary only rules the coven without their respect and decides that there must be more to Rosemary than meets the eye and that she will both find out and win the challenge, all she has to do is practice, practice and practice some more.
Next we meet Mike as he is about to go to his meet with a group of like minded demons and remembers to take his angel cake with him, a way to sweeten the evening, he also knows that he is late with his freedom payment when his hand starts to burn and his spine tingle, a sign that the connection between himself and Satan is itching for it to be paid. As the meeting winds up, Mike heads back home, he passes a few guys who he could read and see whether there could be a deal to strike, but he figures that it isn’t worth sending Satan yet another testicle as payment of the deal, he already has enough of those! He also sensed no malice in them and as he normally only made deals with those who would already be damned anyway, he passes on the opportunity, however, as soon as he gets past the restaurant downstairs and into his apartment, Satan is waiting for him, although it isn’t because he is late on a payment it is because he has a job for him, he is in need of a new assistant as his jealous girlfriend has gotten rid of the last one and he will only accept a witch, if Mike can manage it, then he can be free, so now the only thing Mike has to do is find one.
As Crimson and Mike decide to go to the same bar for different reasons and unbeknown to the other, they run into each other and the old flame ignites between them, but soon they have to go their separate ways before one of them decides to do something they would regret. The pull between them is too strong and they decide that they want to see where things will lead, but there are mishaps along the way and when they talk about it, they accidentally make a deal and Mike manages to damn Crimson when she agrees to give her body and soul to the devil in exchange for winning the contest against Rosemary.
This is a romp from New Orleans to Hell and back again, but will everything turn out to plan, or will history repeat itself? The only way to find out is to join the ride and find out.

I was so excited and ready to get my hands on this second book, Urban Justice, in the Chicago Vigilantes series from India Kells I adored the first and was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for this one, much like I am now in anticipation for a third. Urban Justice focuses on Sloane and Luke as they once again try to save Chicago. The energy in this book is intense right out of the gate and doesn’t stop until you read the last words. I found myself transported to the underground of Chicago and the adventure and romance was enough to keep me enthralled from beginning to end. I would recommend that you read the first one before this one though, it will give you the best experience and this is a series you don’t want to miss one word of. I won’t give much more details than what is in the synopsis because I cannot let this one be spoiled. It will be worth every minute you spend with it.

Secure Boxed Set: Chase Security Series Books 1-3 by R.L. Dunn
Secure Desire (Chase Security Series #1)
Dunn has a way with bringing characters to life. This was a fantastic read and can’t wait for book 2. This is the first book in the Chase Security Series and my first read by the author.
Cassiopeia Ellis, Cassie, has lost her entire family and now people are coming after her. Something happened to her six years ago and she remembers bits and pieces. The quote I choose for Cassie is: “I promise you’re not. Life is too short, and there are tons of things to be afraid of. One thing I am very sure about is I’m not afraid of you.”
Ian Chase runs a high-end business. He met Cassie six years ago, but when he runs into her again he knows he has to have her. He wants to know everything about her, but things are tough in the beginning. The quote I choose for Ian is: “Some other tidbits? I know you prefer tea over coffee. Your favorite snack is gelato. I know you have a passion for high heels. Your favorite scent is honeysuckle. I know you love art—even pig art. You crinkle your nose when you’re thinking. Christian calls you ‘bunny’ because you used to have big ponytails that looked like bunny ears. You are a capable, brave woman, the strongest woman I ever met. I know I want to spend my life getting to learn everything about you and making you happy. When you are well enough, I want to take you to my bed and love you like you deserve to be loved.”
Secure Again (Chase Security Series #2)
The second book I’ve read and definitely not the last. This is the second book in the Chase Security Series, but it can be read as a stand alone. Dunn has a way of bringing you into the book.
Martin is the leading male in this book, but Ian makes an appearance. Going back to his hometown changes everything for him. Not expecting to rekindle the romance from his past. The quote I chose for Martin is: “Thank you, everyone. Those words are too few for all you are doing. I have some news for all of you. Today I made a life decision: I’ve adopted the infant injured in the trailer park fire. Lola Wyatt will be Lola Bailey by morning. In advance, I thank all her new aunts and uncles for being a part of her life. Second happy news: I plan to ask Elizabeth Reed to marry me the second she wakes up.”
Elizabeth, Beth, is a doctor who finds that guards are abusing the prisoners. When a cop is shot and she tends to him; she finds that it’s the younger brother of Martin. Not sure how things are going to go she faces the Bailey family. The quote I chose for Beth is: “That is a bleed. Eric, Patrick, recheck the CT. What vessel does it look like to you? There are multiple layers of collateral circulation from previous injuries. He follows his own book.”
Secure Heart (Chase Security Series #3)
Another great read by Dunn! This is part of the Chase Security Series, but can be read as a stand alone. Dunn has a skill of making you fall in love.
Julian is missing his wife and takes to the bottle. His family doesn’t know and his friends help him out. When he’s moved closer to family he finds himself falling. The quote I chose for Julian is: “I’m the hard a**, Julian Dupart. You two were hired to replace one person: Mia Donnelly. According to your resumes, each of you hold all the specific requirements to meet the conditions of this job on your own. You received huge salary bumps and countless perks. I walked down to your office with the intentions of getting to know you and discussing the issues concerning the branch. Instead, two blivets greeted me with attitude and boredom, wasting time playing games. Both of you are on notice. Go home now, and tomorrow, return with a new attitude and work ethic if you want to continue being employed by this organization. OUT!”
Holly is a single mom who isn’t happy. She finds that her kid is sick and wants to help. Things get tough and she isn’t sure who to turn to. The quote I chose for Holly is: “Well, Momma , I guess it’s my time to take over your business.”

Dunn – Review by Amanda Kimble
Rick is the third book in the Ingram Brothers series. While reading the previous books might give more detail on how one event originated in this story, I was able to read this book without having read the others. I LOVED THIS BOOK! All the feels, all the steaminess. I don’t usually read books that are based in the state I live in and I’m glad that I didn’t realize this one was or I would have missed out on a superb story. The characters are written in a way that makes you connect to them right away. And, you will definitely want to read the prologue in this to get the set up. It makes all the difference to the depth of emotion you feel later on in the story. Oh, and I can’t forget the kitchen scene with the air freshener – laugh out loud hilarious!
Lies That Bind by Valerie Davisson is the sixth book in the Logan McKenna Mystery series. This series gets better with each and every book drawing me in further to Logan’s life. This can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading them in order. The main focus of each book is individual but there are many underlying storylines and the growth of the characters which really makes this better read in order. This time Logan is meeting her half-sister, Olivia whom she just found out about. Also, Logan is making big changes in her own life. Will Logan be able to balance everything? On top of her personal life, she is drawn into another death, possibly murder. The victim’s family has a lot of secrets and has Logan looking at all angles. I really enjoy this series and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Urban Justice by India Kells a fast paced for-star read. This is number two in the Chicago Vigilante series and is fast paced and thrilling with some great chemistry, but I just didn’t warm to the main character and that surprised me as I have loved all of the other characters this author has produced. I found Sloane to be fierce and feisty but couldn’t quiet grasp it all. It was fun getting deeper into the tunnels and deeper into Urbex and some of the other characters and the story.

The Bullet Theory by Sonya Jesus a gripping five-star read. This is number one in the Dr Nolan Mills series and my goodness the darkness in this story, the twists and turns will keep you guessing and hooked on every page, you won’t want to put it down for anything. Dr Nolan Mills may be the character the series is based around, but Eleanor was the standout for me, at first, I didn’t warm to her and found her behaviour off, but as the story progressed, she grew into a great character. This story will hold your attention and show you a different side of grief, one we normally don’t get to see. This has great characters and a story that will keep you hooked.

Hunted (Hunted Series Book 1) by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk 4 Stars
I’ve always enjoyed books written by these authors. They know the best way to pull you in and keep you interested. I found this story to be quite ordinary its take on vampires. The world knows of them and the vampires have been trying to integrate since prohibition. They have gained certain rights and are fighting for more. Trying to show the world that they deserve love and life even while hunters chase them down.
Even after one hundred years, Edith still mourns the loss of her love. She’s constantly living in the past until she meets Darren. He makes her want to shed her reservations and live in the moment. Being a hunter, Darren never thought he’d meet a vampire he didn’t want to kill; until Edith. Unfortunately for them both, they are breaking clan laws. The clan leader will do everything in his power to stop them.
This is a story filled with desire, longing and danger. It’s hunters versus humans. Will you choose to be the hunter or the hunted? Another excellent book to add to these authors collection.

Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie by Mark Nolan a five-star thriller. This was a great start to the series and shows us what a great story is to come, there are parts that will have your brain itching with clues, but they are just you’re of reach, I feel like the more I read the more clues I will find and the more I will understand. This takes you to the extreme, it really has the most villainous villain I have ever come across. There has to be a special mention to Cody, who will always have a special place in my heart and no doubt the heart of mystery.

This is book three in the PJ Santini series and follows on from the previous books. This book has elements of mystery and romance to it making it a thrilling read. Depressed, crabby, angry; this is the book to read. Your mood will change drastically as the story progress. Lynne Russell has written an incredibly entertaining and, at times, laugh-out-loud crime novel. I’m looking forward to the next in the series of P.J. Santini, her crazy family and friend. She is also both a TV news reporter and private eye. PJ is the kind of woman that once she is assigned and assignment she is determined to find out the answers and truth of what happened. A must read for anyone.
