Daddy's Girl (Freshwater Book 3)Daddy’s Girl by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Freshwater Series and I enjoyed this just as much as the first 2. The characters are likeable and you really feel a connection to them. It is nice to have a strong female lead character as well as a powerful successful male character.

Em has almost graduated with her PhD. With her goals focused on starting her new career and being successful she doesn’t have time for love or romance. However her father wants her to settle down so he keeps trying to set her up. Add to this her father’s job and how it conflicts with what Em believes in and this makes their relationship strained.
So when he try to set her up again she is less than impressed. Until she meets Joel Scott.

Joel is a successful business man. Like Em his focus is his work so when his prespective employer thinks he will like his daughter he goes along with the set up to win over his favour.

What he finds is that Em is nothing like he expected and he is drawn to the strong independent woman that she is.

Can love bloom when neither of them want it? Can Joel prove to Em that he’s interested in her and not just to win favour with her dad? Can they find room in their lives to focus on something other than their careers?

When his lawyer comes to speak to him the next day, he is ready to just brush the whole thing under the carpet with just a fine, but Cade decides to take his punishment and complete the hours community service and pay the fine for repairing what he damaged, he feels like it will do him more good, but starts to regret it when he realises that the community service will be with Bella at the school. Meanwhile Bella is struggling to get the students’ enthusiasm up for that year’s musical, Little Shop of Horrors, especially when she knows it is the only thing standing in the way of the department losing all of its finding for the next year, to only be told that not only is she getting a student who is serving community service, but Cade Owens as well!

Now Cade has agreed to this community service he has to break the news to his manager and bandmates, but some are more accepting than others and he is trying to ignore the messages, phone calls and demands for new songs as much as he can, but between juggling that, being at the school twice a week and looking after his grandpa, he is wearing thin, but thanks to a kind neighbour, he is just about able to cope. So he starts to spend his tuesdays and thursdays at the school with the students and Bella, the atmosphere is purely professional around them and the kids who are thoroughly in awe that THE Cade Owens is helping out at their school, but Bella allows them to do the whole fan thing for a bit, then gets down to work with the student on community service in the AV and lights setups while everyone else works on their parts and on the set.

Will this unlikely duo be able to pull off the perfect musical and wow the school board, or will the life of a rockstar get in the way?

This is a tale of romance, music and life changing decisions, but how it all ends is something you will have to read to find out.

Crave (Clark Family Series) by Evelyn Sola – Review by Bailey Stiles

Crave (Clark Family Series Book 1)Crave by Evelyn Sola
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Crave by Evelyn Sola

Tells the story of Sandra, a nurse who spends her weekends helping out at her mother’s bakery. One weekend, she is delivering a cake to a client’s party and meets Jacob Clark. The attraction is instant.

If you enjoy books like Fifty Shade of Gray, you probably will enjoy this book. Sola writes a very steamy story, that addresses class differences, race, and the pain of being betrayed by the ones closest to you.

I think writing a book is a huge accomplishment and I can see why others might like this one, I don’t think this book was for me. The romanticization of an abusive relationship is a theme I have never really been able to get behind.

At Once by Mindy McKinley a tasty four-star read. This is number two in the Adams Brothers series and I have enjoyed them in order. Gabi made this story for me, there was just something about her I could have read another hundred pages. Mason brought something to the story, he had a way of getting Gabi to come across and unfurl herself and become the person she was supposed to. I know I for one cannot wait for the next instalment in this story. As it appears to me this author is just getting better and better with each story they write.

Dance of Hearts: a Cinderella Regency Romance Retelling (Historical Fantasy Fairytale Retellings #1) by Bryd Nash

This is the first book I’ve read by Nash. The author knows how to capture a reader’s attention. I absolutely loved this retell.

Melinda is now living like Cinderella. She is working for the family that has moved into her home. When she finds that her friend from when she was a kid is coming home things change. The quote I chose for Melinda is: “Perhaps it would be best to keep your finery a secret? Thus the gentlemen can be amazed and delighted when they see you?”

Kaye is coming back to visit after his great uncle left him the house. He is coming back after all this time and he’s hoping to find a wife. The quote I chose for Kaye is: “They don’t know me or what I look like . Never wrote me letters until last month. I only agreed in coming here as I thought it might be a change from town. We couldn’t visit Birch Hall. The roof is still being replaced.”

Highly recommended for Fantasy Romance lovers.

Mythical Alliance: Phoenix Team: The Complete Season by Claire Luana – Review By Mrs R

Mythical Alliance: Phoenix Team: The Complete Season (Mythical Alliance Series #1-6)Mythical Alliance: Phoenix Team: The Complete Season by Claire Luana
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Book 1-6
I’ve really enjoyed this series.
Zariya is half Nagu, half human. She is devastated at the death of her father and puts her life on hold to find answers, leading her to a secret agency. Together with Phoenix Team, she helps uncover and eliminate supe underworld operations. Each book deals with its own operation, but they do follow on from each.
The world building was really well explained and easy to follow. I really enjoyed the interactions between the team as they deal with the supe criminals, much to the annoyance of their team leader.
I loved the writing style, the story is concise, well written and not dragged out. There’s nothing worse than having scenes go on for far longer than they need to. This style really helped me stay hooked on the storyline, wanting to jump into the next book straight away. This series is full of action, humour, banter, suspense and a whole lot of twists and turns.

Phoenix Team One: Selected
This is an amazing start to the series. I was hooked from the first page, and I really enjoyed the world building which is a human world that knows about different supe species.
Zariya is devastated after the death of her father and refuses to believe is was an accident. Her curiosity leads her to Veil Force, a secret supe special forces agency.
Zariya is strong, stubborn, highly trained by her father and also refuses to give up. The other characters are so far really interesting and I can’t wait to find out more about them.
The world building was explained really well.

Phoenix Team Two: Protected
Book 2 continues where book 1 left off. Zariya has now joined the Phoenix team and is being sent on her first mission. Konstantin is now her boss, and she is still fighting her attraction to him, and she still hasn’t told him about her fathers help.
This book is full of action as the team takes on missions and learn to work together. Zariya is slowly building bridges with her best friends and making new friends with her team, although she lacks patience and is potentially putting her team at risk with her actions, it all adds to the action and suspense of the story.
There is a cliffhanger at the end.

Phoenix Team Three: Captured
Book 3 continues the series and is another action packed story.
Konstantin and Daevin have followed Zariya through the portal and have stumbled into an enemy base. Things don’t quite go to plan and a rescue mission is required.
I really enjoy the writing of the world building in this series, it’s not too complicated to understand but it still pulls me into the story.
The banter and friendships in the group bring some humour into the story and also helps understand the teams personalities better.
The twist at the end was partly unexpected and I can’t wait to see what the Phoenix Team do with the information.

Phoenix Team Four:Trafficked
This was another great book in the series. Another day, another mission for Phoenix Team. This time they are trying to take down a supe trafficking location, with Zariya going in undercover.
I really enjoy the concise style of writing for fight scenes, nothing is dragged out, its dealt with so the story can move on.
There are a few twists in this book, the agency mole is finally revealed and also someone from Konstantin’s past makes an appearance to throw a spanner in the works.

Phoenix Team Five: Revealed
Continuing on from book 4, the team follow Konstantin to the supe underworld (DRC) and to his master. What they find is a lawless society held together with strict punishments. Just when the team think they’ve found the answers, more are revealed.
Again this book is full of action, great characters and a continuing storyline that just keeps adding twists and keeps you in suspense. If you enjoyed the previous books, you will enjoy this one too.

Phoenix Team Six: Betrayed
Book 6 starts to bring all the previous missions and intelligence together, leading to a stand off as each side stands their ground.
The mole is finally revealed to the other teams and Rex returns to the home he abandoned in order to try and help his team.
Again, this book is full of action, but also shows how far the team has bonded. They pull in every resource they can in order to expose the Leviathan network.
I loved the ending and the epilogue, it was perfect for the Phoenix Team series.
There is a great introduction to the next series for Drago Team.

Heartbeats and Roses by Jae Dawson a flirty four-star read. This is such a sweet read, it may give you toothache, I think I enjoyed this as it was a rekindling and that always warms me up. The familiarity between the characters was a little too much as they just seemed to be too insular and it made it difficult to imagine you are there with them, and that is how I usually read and get into a story. Overall, it was good, and I do plan on reading more from this author to see if the more I get to know the style the more I will enjoy it.

She is a medium who because of her past is afraid of spirits. He has a ghost that is haunting and driving him crazy. Just when he is about to give up hope, he meets her and she just may be the answer to his prayers. I enjoyed their characters and what they bring to the story.

The killer has an agenda but so does the investigator Cade. As the story becomes a cat and mouse game, I highly recommend reading to find out who is the cat and who is the mouse. This is a great story that has twists and turns you don’t want to miss. Don’t miss out on this book, it was worth the pick up.

Jaxon made a promise to his best friend but this time around he won’t be able to keep that promise. What will happen when the past comes to the present in more than one way?

Mythical Alliance: Phoenix Team: The Complete Season (Mythical Alliance Series #1-6)Mythical Alliance: Phoenix Team: The Complete Season by Claire Luana
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is Zariya Chanji’s story, she is a woman who is half human and half naga, a supernatural snake warrior and she has just lost her father Vizol, the official reports say that it was an accident, but in her bones, Zariya is sure that there is something more to it and decides to be reckless and find out for herself what exactly happened. The book starts with her seducing a man who works for the MASC, or the Ministry Alliance of Supernatural Creatures and making an illegal copy of his ID card so that she can break into the building, however, things go a bit wrong and she ends up going to hospital with him, but in the rush, she leaves her purse behind in the ambulance and has to call in her best friend for a rescue and when she starts to act suspiciously, Zariya decides to follow her and see what is going on, but what she discovers is that her father has been leading a double life and that he actually works for an initiative within MASC too, but when she comes across the opportunity to find out more, she becomes embroiled within the secrets herself and lands a place on the Phoenix Team.

This is where things get really interesting as this box set follows Zariya and her teammates as they investigate Vizol’s death, as well as other missions, each book focuses on one member of the team and keys you into their past, present and possibly future. All the while, Zariya is trying to fit in and get to know her place within the team with little help from those around her, as she feels betrayed by them because they were all keeping secrets from her. As she pushes people away, all she really wants is the truth to be revealed in more ways than one, but the secrets which bury deeper into the Phoenix Team and MASC as a whole than anyone realised, including past mistakes and future consequences, but will the team and Zariya be able to live long enough to uncover them all?

This is a fantasy adventure with twists, turns and non-stop action which pulls you in and makes you want to read more, but will Zariya be able to fully integrate on the team, or will her differences of opinion, fear of further betrayal and the walls around her heart stop her?

The author got the name for this book from a place she’s personally been to, which made this book all the more personal; that added to the fact I could relate to her when she mentioned having a morbid curiosity about crime made me feel all the more closer to the book and the author which I think is so important.

Dance of Hearts: a Cinderella Regency Romance Retelling (Historical Fantasy Fairytale Retellings Book 1)Dance of Hearts: a Cinderella Regency Romance Retelling by Byrd Nash
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book reminded me of Georgette Heyer novels, a simple clean regency romance with a Cindrella twist. Though I admit, Cindrella twist was not necessary, even otherwise it is a lovely story.
Melinda Wychwood was successfully running her father’s estate, until he dies, when unfortunately, upon his death, the estate goes to his distant male cousin Mr. Davenport. Mrs. Davenport has a young daughter and she detests Melinda’s efficiency and beauty and tries to keep her away from the public eye.
Alexander Kaye Arundell, a childhood friend of Melinda, has recently inherited a fortune and is now everyone’s eye-candy. All the eager mothers are eyeing him as a match for their daughters. Arundell along with his friend Theodore Marlowe visit the country side with a a deceitful plot of their own. Will the ploy succeed or one of the gentlemen fall in love despite all his dislike towards the matchmaking moms process?
It is a very simple story and told in a very pleasant way. It is very difficult to find a sweet clean romance these days, especially retelling a romance in regency era is not easy. Minute attention has to be paid to the costumes and the accessories.
I finished this book in an hour and loved every bit of it. As I said earlier, even without the fairy touch, the story would have been equally beautiful.
Hope to see more such romances from this author.

Heartbeats and Roses: A Small Town Valentine’s Day Romance (A Hartwood Holiday Romance) by Jae Dawson was a great 5 star read.

If you like second chance romance you will get pulled into this story. Rose owns her own floral shop and she loves it. It has helped her move forward from her own heartbreak. Her favorite time of year is Valentine’s day when she has a special event.

Liam has returned home after an issue at work. He was forced to leave town years ago and he still has some feelings that need to be resolved from that night. The place he has rented for his stay is above a floral shop and brings him face-to-face with his past. He quickly realized how much he missed Rose and they started to get close again.

Will these two rekindle what they had in the past? Or will Liam’s current relationship get in the way?

Overall this was a great story. The author pulls you in with her writing and you won’t want to put it down. Both characters were great. My emotions were all over the place. You can read this as a stand alone. If you’re looking for a great romance read, 1-click and get started today. I look forward to reading more from this author.

This is the first book I’ve read by this author. It was a great book and I’m looking forward to the next one. This is the first book in the Thunder On The Moor Series.

Maggie is the daughter of a 16th century man who was brought to the future. She’s heard what she thought were stories. Only to find out that they’re not just stories. The quote I chose for Maggie is: “Regardless, it would do us all good to get away.”

Robert is from the 16th century and from Scotland. He’s brought from the past to the future. There four hundred years into the future he meets his wife and had a kid. The quote I chose for Robert is: “Have nae fear, laddie, if I’d wanted to kill ye, ye’d be long since gone.

Stormy’s Thunder is book two in the Satan’s Devils MC Utah series by Manda Mellett. Story’s story is yet another gripping and emotional story that is enthralling that I was incapable of putting it down. The dialogue was on point and the overall story was edgy and dramatic. All the things I love in a story. Manda Mellet always delivers a tale that has me totally engrossed with my heart beating wildly and a dessert dry mouth. Her characters are real, direct, imperfect, yet they have an uncanny ability to worm their way into your heart even if you don’t particularly like them in the beginning. You cannot help falling for them and their battles/hardship. Their integrity is strong and their devotion, once accepted, is liberating. I always take a little of each characters with me at the end of very story I read. With these characters, I take a lot more with me. I love these men and women. I love this series.

Trent Austin is a successful, big-city lawyer. The last thing he needs is the burden of a run-down house in the suburbs. But when his crazy uncle dies and leaves his estate to Trent, he soon learns he’s inherited a lot more than a Victorian mansion.
He’s got to get rid of the house—and the ghosts that came with it—before it kills him.
Tina Sanders is the best real estate agent in Michigan, so she shouldn’t be surprised when Trent calls her to sell his uncle’s house. But she hasn’t spoken to Trent since she dumped him three months ago. Her fear of commitment forced her to sideline Trent to the friend-zone, but the flames rekindle as soon as she sees him again.
Despite her better judgment, she accepts the job.
But her connection to the house runs deeper than the sexy lawyer who owns it.
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.
If you like steamy, second-chance romance with a ghostly twist, you’ll love this gripping tale of love and mystery.

Carrie Pulkinen is a paranormal romance author who has always been fascinated with things that go bump in the night. Of course, when you grow up next door to a cemetery, the dead (and the undead) are hard to ignore. Pair that with her passion for writing and her love of a good happily-ever-after, and becoming a paranormal romance author seems like the only logical career choice.

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.

At Once (The Adams Brothers Book 2) by Mindy McKinley – Review by Heather Lovelace

At Once (Adams Brothers, #2)At Once by Mindy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

McKinley is a go to author for just really good contemporary romance. Gabi and Mason were a great pair to get to know and watch develop a relationship with one another. Plenty of plot, plenty of quirky, plenty of heat – just a really good and easy read. Cannot wait to see what comes next in the series!
