ANGUISH (THE JOURNALS TRILOGY BOOK ONE) AUDIO BOOK by D.M. EARL – Review by Jenique Bornman

/0 Comments/in /by

This is the review I left when I first read the book back in 2017
**********************************************************HOOKED FROM THE START.
This book held me captive from start to finish. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
It’s been a while since I’ve been so emotionally invested in a book. Quinn is a brave woman and the traumatic event that she went thru still gives me nightmares.
The way D.M. Earl paints the picture of that event with her words made me feel like I was there like Stone watching in horror.
Stone is the perfect protector. But I must say I started out not really liking him because I felt he could have done more to help Quinn. But in the end I fell in love with his character aswell.

I also love the fact that this book is written from Quinn and Stone’s point of view. Nice to get both of there perspectives.

This is not for the faint hearted. But I would read it again and again and again.
**********************************************************

So when I saw that it was available on audiobook I just HAD to get it.
What a completely different experience it is to hear this AMAZING book come to life in audio. Nya Simpson did an superb job with the narration.

Third Time's a Ghost: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After, #3)Third Time’s a Ghost: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the Haunted Ever After series and it is another great book. I love the mix of romance and paranormal. The characters are really well written and easy to feel a connection with.

Erica is a psychic medium who has taken over her old teachers theatre after she dies. The business is in trouble so Erica is working hard to put it on track. She had plenty of experience with spirits however when this spirit in her theatre starts to become more of a poltergeist then she knows she needs help.

Gage is the man for the job. He also had experience dealing with spirits and also helping them to cross over so when Erica  asks for his help he accepts.

When emotions return Gage realises he’s never gotten over his one true love in Erica. Will she return his feelings? After all this time will they come together? Or will the spirits have other plans for them?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow! What a great sequel! Bound by Secrets is the second book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops Series by Amy McKinley. The first book was really good and this one was even better! On the beautiful island of Oahu, Kayla Kane is running from an ex-boyfriend. Not exactly what she wants to be doing. Jaxon Hale is Kayla’s brother’s best-friend. They happen to run into each other when she returns to Honolulu. Jaxon is retired Navy and is now working at the local police department. When Jaxon finds out about how abusive the ex-boyfriend was, she became someone Jaxon is going to protect. I loved these two together. They really did have great chemistry. There were a lot of twists and turns in this book. One’s that I didn’t even see coming. But, I am truly impressed with this author! It was definitely a page turner from the moment that I started to read the book. I can’t wait for the next book in the series! Sign me up please!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Book of Eleanor 3) by Shannon Nemechek was a good 4 star read.

We start where book 2 left off, Katie and Colm are in 1692 Scotland working on a mission. There is so much that goes on,you will fly through the pages.

Will they fulfill their mission?

We get so much in this read magic, danger, mystery and so much more. We get several twists and turns that will throw you off. The secondary characters added a great element to the story as well. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. I highly suggest reading the first two books in the series before this one. 1-click and get started today.

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After #2)Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

 

 

“Trent ascended the stairs, stepping lightly on the creaky wood panels to avoid putting a foot through the floor. He slid the key into the lock and twisted the knob. The hinges creaked as the door swung open, the knob pulling from his hand as if someone on the other side yanked it from his grasp…..
He peered inside. Hollow darkness greeted him. Haunting. A shiver ran down his spine, and it wasn’t from the chilling winter air whispering through the trees. The whole scene creeped him out.”

 

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance is the second book in the Haunted Ever After series by Carrie Pulkinen. This is a superb paranormal romance- with ghosts, paranormal + supernatural elements, danger, mystery, tension, wonderful characters, chemistry, and a whole lot of sizzle.
Trent Austin, whom we met in book one- being the best friend of Logan, has just inherited a dilapidated estate from his recently deceased Uncle. The old Victorian mansion certainly has a creepy, menacing vibe- and Trent couldn’t wait to get rid of it.
Tina Saunders, whom we also met in book one- being the best friend of Allison, is the best realtor in the area- and is who Trent calls to help off load his Uncle’s estate. These two have some recent history- so the spark between them doesn’t take much to reignite. Add threats, sinister and creepy vibes, danger, drama- and a whole lot of steam… and this story just wouldn’t let me put it down.
This story could be read as a standalone, as each book in the series focuses on a different couple. But having said that, I really recommend reading the three books together, as there are recurring characters to meet- as well as fantastic storylines that you would miss out on otherwise.
As I have mentioned many, many times previously- I have developed a severe addiction to Ms. Pulkinen’s stories- but it’s an addiction that I am more than happy to indulge- so, no rehab needed!
Highly recommended for all paranormal romance lovers!

Thank you, Carrie Pulkinen!

The Liminal Space is the second book in the Antipodes Series by T.S. Simons and I absolutely loved it. I would recommend reading the first book in this series if you haven’t already, you’ll have a better understanding of what is going on. It definitely makes you ask yourself if you could start over would you? My answer would be heck no I’ve worked to hard to get where I am. I’ve learned from past mistakes and pushed myself right on past. This is a story about Cam and the journey he goes on as he finds out what family means. It really makes you think about If you were given a chance to start over would you do it and make different choices? I highly recommend reading this book. I truly enjoyed reading it and look forward to reading more from this Author.

The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Traveler Series, Book of Eleanor Book 3) by Shannon Nemechek. This series has been amazing. Its not my favorite genre but this author has taken me on a journey where I feel like I have been to Scotland and its so great! I highly recommend reading these books in order.

There is danger, intrigue, magic, amid secrets being revealed. Colm is given a very big choice, will he pick the right one? This book picks right up where the cliff hanger of an ending left us in book 2 so buckle up and enjoy the ride. Its a wild and fast paced adventure!

Second Chance Spirit (Book Two of the Haunted Ever After series) by Carrie Pulkinen was a great read! This series I think just gets better and better. I can’t tell which I like the most so far! This author does a great job with the humor, and romance and steam, without overdoing it. The storyline was amazing and so were the characters. I absolutely loved seeing more of Tina. She was definitely a favorite character from the first book. Pulkinen is quickly becoming a favorite author, and I can’t wait to more of her books. I can’t wait to read the third book in this series soon!

The Traveler: Chimera Rising (Book Three of the Book of Eleanor series) by Shannon Nemechek was a really good book! This series has become a favorite for me. Not only with the history aspect, but also with the romance, and magic that’s involved throughout. My only complaint I have with this series as a whole is that I wish the books were released sooner, because I always forget what happened in the previous installment, and it confuses when I read the newest novel in the series. But the characters are great, and storylines are always amazing, and this one was no exception. I can’t wait to read the next installment!

Something in the house wants Trent dead. As he battles to win the affections of the sultry real estate agent, he’s also fighting for his life. Successful big-city lawyer, Trent Austin, does not have time for the run-down Victorian house he just inherited from a crazy uncle. Determined to get rid of it as soon as he can, he contacts the best real estate agent in Michigan Tina Sanders. This is the second book in the Haunted Ever After Series. You will most definitely want to read the first book in the series. It can be read as a standalone, but I honestly recommend you read the first book as well. If you like steamy, second-chance romance with a ghostly twist, you’ll love this gripping tale of love and mystery.

This book starts when the previous book, The Revolution finishes. When the Revolution focuses on both Katie and Colm sacrificing their love, this book has them transported back to 6th century where they have a mission to accomplish. But Colm has to make a few choices, and his choices determine the fate of the mission.
As the previous book, this book is also filled with danger, deception, romance and mystery. Katie and Colm have already been through a lot in the previous books, so you do feel connected to those characters and want them to succeed.
Overall, another roller-coaster and an enjoyable read.

Nobody Knows: A British Rock Band Romance (Razes Hell Book 1)
By Kyra Lennon

This was an excellent read. I had a hard time putting this book down once I got started. This story has romance, rock, friendship, forgiveness, and so much more. I was taken on an emotional ride with this read. Ellie, Drew and Jason all have their own issues to work through, but can their relationships survive it all? Drew and Jason are brothers and are in a band but there is much more to their relationship and Ellie finds herself in the middle since she’s their oldest friend. I found this story line took a little bit of a different turn then I expected and it pulled at my heartstrings at different times throughout. This author did an excellent job bringing me into the story so I became invested in the characters. This is a must read, I highly recommend this book.

The Traveler: Chimera Rising (The Book of Eleanor 3) by Shannon Nemechek

This is the second book I’ve read by Nemechek. Shannon knows how to bring her readers back. I absolutely love this book and can’t wait for more.

Morgana is dying and there isn’t anything anyone can do. Merlin doesn’t want her to die so something happens. Her kids don’t want to lose her and things go down. The quote I chose for Morgana is: “I’m glad you are here, my son. I want so badly for you and your father to make amends. You children will be all he has once I have passed. Please, my dear son…Please try to forgive your father. He has only thought of what is best for you and your sister. He loves you both so. Please try…”

Merlin is a knight and is serving under the king. After losing his wife things don’t go the way he planned. Going back and forth between time. The quote I chose for Merlin is: “My king, you have been enchanted. You must lock yourself away until I can return. It is imperative that you stay away from everyone. Will you do that, sire?”

Highly recommended for Fantasy lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Price of a Rose: A Beauty & Beast Tale (Historical Fantasy Fairytale Retellings Book 2) by Byrd Nash is wonderful. When your father loses a bet in a card game against the “Beast” of Thorn Hall in exchange for one of his three daughters, the sisters find a way to ensure their fate turns out to their liking. Lily, Rose, and Poppy each find themselves a job at Thorn Hall manor. Lily begins running the household, Rose works to reclaim the overgrown garden, and Poppy searches out books of magic while working as the “Beast’s” secretary. I loved hearing about the magic that has overtaken Thorn Hall and how the sisters have helped to save the hall, the beast, and others who were affected by the fairy curse. The sisters and other characters in this story make it so much fun to read!
I’m looking forward to more in the Historical Fantasy Fairytale Retellings series!

Nobody Knows: A British Rock Band Romance (Razes Hell #1) by Kyra Lennon

This is the first book I’ve read by Lennon but it will not be my last. I think I’ve found a new book boyfriend in Drew. Lennon knows how to capture a reader’s attention.

Ellie is not used to being in the spotlight. When she finds herself falling for her friend she isn’t sure what to think. Jason and Drew have been her friends for several years. She isn’t sure what to think about everything happening. The quote I chose for Ellie is: “Mack, do me a favour and put Jason in a cab. And call Derek, he needs to know about this. Drew, come with me.”

Drew the drummer and songwriter for Razes Hell. He doesn’t know when his feelings have changed for his best friend. He doesn’t want to be second best anymore and it scares him. The quote I chose for Drew is: “Because he’s Jason. He’s so busy trying to do what he thinks is best for the band, he doesn’t think about anyone else. He’s a selfish p**ck.”

Highly recommended for contemporary romance lovers.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kayla has returned home after fleeing the abusive relationship she found herself in. Imagine her surprise to find out that her parents are selling their home to buy a condo…from the man she had a crush on when she was younger.
When Jaxon runs into Kayla at a coffee shop, he wants to know more about her life and, more importantly, more about the bruises around her neck. He still has feelings for Kayla, but knows that they must clear the air regarding their pasts before they can have a future.
When a former co-worker, and former ex of her ex, is found dead…Kayla fears that she could be next. A grim warning from the spirit of her brother really makes her start to worry. Add in Jaxon’s missing brother and there is a lot going on in this story.
I found myself rooting for Jaxon and Kayla. You could feel their love for each other from the beginning. There were definitely some big secrets that they kept from each other…but watching how they dealt with them had me even more engrossed in the story. Overall, a good story that I was able to finish in one sitting.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After Book 2) by Carrie Pulkinen, 5 stars.

If you have read book one in the series, you are familiar with both of these characters. I was really excited when I saw that this book was about them. I was not disappointed either. We learn so much more about them, what led them to be who they are today. We also see who they really are now dealing with the house and the supernatural attached to it. They are just great, real people and makes this book what it is.

But let us not forget the story itself. Going by the name of the series, there are ghosts involved. The house Trent inherits is right out of a horror movie, but one I myself would love fix up and live in. I could imagine myself right there in it. The bad vibes they feel in house, the things happening to them, again, remind me of a horror movie, but in the best way. I would not say this is a horror book, but what is and has happened is both eerie and heartbreaking.

If you are a fan of Paranormal Romance with a good dose of suspense, this book is for you. It can be read as a stand alone book, but I recommend the whole series.

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After #2)Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A fun and ghostly paranormal romance with a second chance at love twist. Having been introduced to Trent and Tina at the end of the first book in Pulkinen‘s ‘Haunted Ever After’ series I was looking forward to reading their story. Although the characters do crossover this can be read as a standalone story but I would recommend reading ‘Love at First Haunt’ as well. Big city successful lawyer Trent Austin inherits his uncles Victorian mansion in the suburbs, it’s just a shame it’s rundown and comes with ghosts. Desperate to sell the house he calls Tina Sanders, the best real estate agent in Michigan and also his ex girlfriend who dumped him. Tina ended her relationship with Trent due to her fear of commitment but as soon as she sees him again she realises that the chemistry is still there. The situation becomes more complicated as not only is Trent trying to rekindle things with Tina but he is soon fighting for his life as something in the house wants him dead. This is a good mix of romance, comedy and mystery with a ghostly twist and I was hooked from page one. I loved the main characters and the chemistry between Tina and Trent really came across in the narrative and their mutual attraction led to some rather hot and steamy scenes. An enjoyable and engaging read, I look forward to book three in the series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having read and enjoyed the previous two books in this series I was looking forward to reading this latest novel and I was not disappointed. Enjoyable and engaging from start to finish, I was hooked from page one and loved being back with time travellers Katie and Colm. ‘Chimera Rising’ continues Katie and Colm’s story and this time they journey from 1692 to the sixth century having been rescued by Merlin. Here they are involved in a battle between good and evil and they have to prevent magic from falling into the wrong hands. I would recommend that the novels are read in order as they do follow on and the background story of the ancient curse which has been plaguing the Stewart witches for centuries and which only the last Stewart witch, according to prophecy can break also runs through the series. In this third book of ‘The Traveler Series’ the entire prophecy is at last revealed and the Avalon relics must be recovered before The Lady of the Lake can find them. This is a shorter book than the previous two but it is just as action packed and is a real page turner. The descriptive narrative really brings both the characters and the setting to life which made me feel immersed in the story.

Cursed Sight (Broderick Coven Book 2) by AJ Renee

This is the second book I’ve read by Renee and I can’t wait for more. Cursed Sight is an amazing read and it will leave you wanting more. If you haven’t checked Renee out then you should.

Serena is a high priestess and has been missing Ethan. She doesn’t need a man nor does she want one. When cleansing Ethan she finds herself being cleansed as well. She learns something, but keeps it to herself. The quote I chose for Serena is: “Depends on your definition. Just because I’ve never encountered it, doesn’t necessarily make it a rare occurrence. For all my lecturing you to cleanse, I’ve obviously been neglecting my own to warrant this level of cleaning.”

Ethan thought he’d lose his sister when she became in danger. He wants to contact Serena, but doesn’t know if it’s welcomed. He sends a text when he gets back to town, but doesn’t realize that he never pressed send. The quote I chose for Ethan is: “Because I’m good looking and you’re in desperate need for an oracle.”

Highly recommended for Paranormal lovers.

This book includes mystery and had me turning pages to find out what happens next. The books in this series keep getting better with each story that I read.

This is a complex and fascinating tale. Our hero and heroine wind up in the fantastical world of King Arthur and Guinevere, rubbing shoulders with Lancelot and the other knights of the Round Table.

This book has intrigue, adventure, and more than a little magic. Shannon Nemechek is skilled at creating beautiful worlds alive with colour and rich in depth. I could feel myself as Katie, magic in my fingertips, as she bravely sought to live her destiny. Fantasy readers will love this latest tale in the Book of Eleanor series, and I recommend the set to anyone who wants to escape into a magical world alive with possibility.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Haunted Ever After Series. It can definately be read as a standalone but I recommend reading the first book as we are introduced to our main characters in that book. I have loved all this authors books as they contain my two favourite things paranormal and romance. The style of writing and the authors ability to write amazing characters has you gripped from beginning to end.

Trent  is a successful lawyer. When his uncle dies and leaves him his run down mansion in the suburbs the last thing he wants to do is spent time on it. So he contacts the best person he knows to get it sold. However there are two things he doesn’t count on. The fact that his uncle didn’t just leave him the house but also secrets within and the fact that the person he hires to sell it is his old flame.
Tina is amazing at her job so when Trent asks her to sell his uncles house she knows she can do it. However she isn’t prepared for all the emotions and feelings it stirs up between them.

As the pair work together to get the house ready for sale they both have to deal with their emotions and feelings and also the paranormal goings on that happen around the house.

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance by Carrie Pulkinen is the second book in the Haunted Ever After series. This can be read as a standalone book but I believe better enjoyed if you have read book one first. Trent inherits a Victorian Mansion from his “crazy” uncle, but there are more issues than the eye can see. Hiring Tina to help him sell the house quickly things start going wild. Will Trent and Tina figure out the mysteries of the house?
I always enjoy a new story from Carrie Pulkinen and this did not disappoint. The story is a fun, paranormal romance with a bit of thrill and chills thrown in. Second chances are all around in this story and a good reminder that some things are meant to be. This is a quick read which will have you laughing one moment and wondering what all the haunting is about the next. I look forward to reading the next book in this series soon.

Tina is just an amazing character who was my favourite in the first book, so I’m glad that she’s now back and is main protagonistic-ing it up in this one. As we all know, Tina is awesome at selling houses, in the first book she’d managed to sell a whopper of a place now though she has a bit of a challenge on her hands because the house that she has been asked to help sell is a bit on the creepy side. And when I say creepy, I really mean verging on Hill House levels of spooky. Another issue happens to be that the man he is helping sell the place, just so happens to be the same guy that she might have skipped out on when her feelings for him became a bit too real and scary.
Trent is his name and being a hot-shot lawyer and inheriting creepy mansions is his game. When he gets the old Victorian place from his Uncle, he can’t shake the feeling that there is something seriously wrong with it, getting a spooky vibe from it the moment he sets foot in the place. So he enlists the help of Tina and, while she’s super shocked to get such an invitation from him, reticent to dip her toe back into the scarily deep pool of emotions she felt for him before, she agrees.
I thought this was a great read, and all the simmering sexual tension between the two characters felt believable because of the history between them, and also because I have to say that Tina is an awesome character and wherever you stick her she just makes it better. This feels like the Pulkinen I’m used to and the Pulkinen I love and adore. A nice feisty, sure of herself protagonist with a dash of sexual tension and just all-around fun and giggles to tie it all together. I am looking forward to reading the next book, after this I honestly cannot wait.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nobody knows how deep their issues run; nobody but Ellie. With friendship, a music career and a new love on the line, can Ellie keep their tangled pasts from ruining their futures? Nobody Knows is the first book in the Razes hell series and can be read as a standalone. We get a peek into the lives of rock stars with the sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll. It’s written realistically in that we see people with glowing talent and glaring flaws. The characterization is fantastic and spurs the plot ahead. Kyra Lennon’s version of romance is real, and messy and complicated. Lennon has an amazing way of putting you right in the middle of the story so that you really feel part of that world.
