After finishing part one, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on the next one! Blue Summer Part Two picks up right where part one left off. Lillie has been captured again by the sorcerer Erius. This part is another quick read with more steamy romance, humor, and magic. Lillie is just as feisty as ever and I love her banter with the Zayed. This part, like the first, felt a bit rushed to me, but I love the overall story. I also love that we get to learn more about Lillie and each of her mates. I do hope that the author continues with the series, or maybe shares more of the Zayed’s stories. I’d definitely recommend this quick duo to anyone looking for a fun and steamy quick read!

BRINK OF DENIAL (SONS OF SINDICATO BOOK 2) by SONYA JESUS AND CAM JOHNS – Review by Krista Vaughan
Dane and Mila were almost inseparable until she decided she needed more. She left to be a big time model leaving Dane behind with a broken heart. Life in the Sindicato is hard and anything soft in Dane hardened after Mila left. She keeps coming back for a sleepover when she needs it, stringing Dane along. It almost makes me happy when Dane makes her work for his trust. The men of the Sindicato live hard, but they love hard, too.

This is the first book I’ve read by Taylor, but it won’t be my last. This book had me hooked from the very beginning. It was hard to put it down.
Lillie has always felt like she’s never belonged. When she meets Clay and Heath things change. Now she’s in danger and doesn’t know why. The quote I chose for Lillie is: “Well, let’s not make it for nothing, and get this bad boy back, before it’s too late.”
Heath is part of the Zayed community. Mating is rare and hasn’t happened in a long time. When he and Clay meet Lillie things change. The quote I chose for Heath is: “Brian can bring you back to my hut, if that’s what you want for the night. You can have my bed , and I’ll take the couch. I don’t want you to feel any pressure. You have definitely been through enough for one night.”

The Eclipse Dancer by Laura Koerber is a story full of honesty, a bit of magical realism, and fantasy. I enjoyed the story and how the main character is not a young 20 something. She is a woman in her middle years and her life is shifting again from adult to caretaker. I got the feels while reading this and was able to relate to some of what the character was experiencing. I do not have a mother like Andy but still could relate to how relationships change as your life progresses. This story deals with a lot of hard truths but in an honest but thoughtful, relatable way. I like the bits of magic and fantasy brought in and thought it was helpful to the story. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Okay, so I will be the first to admit I am usually over vampire novels. They have run their course but this book has a character with my daughters name closely to it in it and the reviews were stellar as well as some awesome teasers so I had to see for myself what was behind the cover! I am super glad that I did so and I will be back for more!! I loved every moment and quickly devoured this in one sitting. I enjoyed how it was fast paced with plenty of ebb and flow to keep me well on the edge of my seat and wondering what would come next but also fanning myself at the right times too! I fell in love with the fierce female characters that dominated the kindle too! Something we need more of! I will be checking out more of LD Wosar as well because this was also my first experience with this author and now I am HOOKED!
While this book should have been a heavy mess of emotions, and at times it was, it didn’t kill me with the tears and sobbing mess that I had prepared myself for when I first sat down expecting to. I was both pleasantly surprised by this and sad as well. I didn’t know how to really process the feels that I was going through while reading this novel but I suppose that is how I feel most of the time I read novels penned by Miss Koerber. I will say this book could be read as a fairytale yes but really it is a wonderful read for the middle-age adult who is dealing with the task of how to process or change to caring for our parents or grandparents ets… we become the caregivers at this age and I think there were some really strong poignant points that I took away from reading this for sure. It was also a nice escape as well with a wonderful understory that was nice to escape into and follow along with. I look forward to seeing what else may come from Koerber in the future.

I really enjoyed this paranormal romance from Andrea Matthews. I was used to her writing style so I knew what I was getting into when I picked up this newest series from her. I really enjoyed this lovely start of what I can only imagine will be a rich and detailed trip through pagan and irish history as we follow the way this story and series will unfold. I really loved how once again Matthews’ love for history and romance shone through each and every word almost poetically as it read. I really enjoyed it and felt transported into the story and each scene. I will be anxious to go back and read book two just as soon as I can get my hands on it!

This was a fun, fantastical story. It reminded me of an adult version of the Smurfs. I really liked Lillie. She was smart, independent and sarcastic. I appreciated the way that she accepted the Zayeds and didn’t judge them. Her harem of boys were each unique in character and sexy. I loved each differently; Heath’s strength, Brian’s intelligence, Chief’s compassion and Clay’s clumsiness. The book wasn’t long being only 133 pages. The story takes place over two days. There were times when I felt like the story was rushed. I think it would have worked better if the author made the book a little longer. This is a new author for me and I think she did well. It was a fun read. I’ll be looking for part two.

This book is for those 18 or over due to the adult nature of the content within.
Dane Girodano is the son of the Giordano’s, one of the Sons of the Sindicato and he is also next in line for the seat at the head of the families, but the one thing he doesn’t have is Mila Blanc, a model living in California with the face and body every man wants and every woman wants to be and that is because 11 years ago, she left him brokenhearted for a life away from the Sindicato and everything that went with it. Now Mila Blanc is disillusioned with the life of a model and is just waiting for her contract to end so that she can get her payout and follow her new dreams, however, there is one complication they are an addiction and a vice that neither of them can kick and this could get them into a lot of trouble.
As Mila is trying to keep her head above water and tie up loose ends around her, she gets home after a stressful day and finds a friend there waiting for her with a hot meal cooked and pretty much on the table, however, when this friend finds her phone and sees that she has been paying a man a lot of money, he goes off the rails and goes to set the record straight. This does not go quite to plan and ends up escalating the tension between Mila and her blackmailer instead of calming it down and when reality hits that he can ruin her career easily so near to its conclusion, she decides to call an old friend to help her sort things out. Meanwhile, Dane is trying to sort out his own messes as they suspect that there is a leak somewhere in their operation and they have an idea who they can pump for information about it, however, the individual is not as forthcoming as they had hoped when fear and physical stimulus aren’t working, so they decide to change tact and play the waiting game in a bid to eek it out in another way.
As Dane tries to ignore Mila’s calls thinking that all she wants is more no strings sex and he is not in the mood for that in the slightest, he eventually gives in and answers the phone, however, when she asks for his help he reluctantly says yes and meets her at the time and place she requests of him. When he arrives, Mila fills him in on the details of what has been going on and why he is there, she has a plan and so they go to confront the man in question, but despite the beatdown and threats he receives, he is not letting go that easily and threatens Mila in a new way while simultaneously involving Dane, the Police and the rest of the Sindicato families. As this little meeting is going ahead, other wheels are turning in other areas of the Sindicato businesses which dredge up yet more questions than answers.
This is where Mila starts to miss her old life and the ways in which things were more simple and because of this, she decides that she wants back in with Dane and a second chance at something she thinks they both want, but will Sindicato business get in the way, or will Mila be able to take back control of her life and everything in it? Will Dane be able to forgive and forget, or will the past be too much of a raw and open wound to ever be able to heal? This is a rollercoaster of ups and downs with secrets, revelations, truth and lies throughout and you will become as absorbed in the Sindicato life as they are.

This book was great. Amazing start to this series. Characters were developed perfectly. I felt myself able to connect easily with them. I couldn’t put it down. The story was packed with action and emotion. A true forbidden love story always warms my heart.

What a delightful story. I loved how this came together. It was very imaginative and playful and appeals to all age levels. Just the right amount of whimsy to keep a younger reader engaged without losing the interest of an older lover of fantasy. Very enjoyable.

Cam Johns and Sonya Jesus have done it again, amazing does not even begin to cover how incredible Brink of Denial is. Brink of Denial has everything that a good Mafia story should including powerful mob bosses, the sons that will inherit it all, romance, family, drama and more. This book had me on the edge of my seat and these authors write so beautifully that they leave you longing to know what happens next. Brink of Denial was so full of drama and surprise that I personally can’t wait to see what happens in book two of the Sons of Sindicato series.

This book wrecked me. From the first chapter I was just dissolved and overwhelmed by emotion. It was very well written and completely captivating. I thoroughly appreciate the thought this author puts into her writing and look forward to reading more.
This writing duo cannot be stopped. Non stop. Emotional. Intense. Amazing. I loved every page and love these authors together. I can’t wait to go back and read this book again.

Sleeping Angel is the second book in Nikki Lynn Barrett’s Soul Connection series. It could be read as a standalone, with different characters as the focal point, but it follows on nicely from the events of the previous book, Peaceful Slumbers, developing the themes and ideas introduced in that book. And they’re both good so why not start at the beginning and work your way through! This book is an emotional rollercoaster from the start. It’s a tense mystery where it feels like every page makes you ask more and more questions. There are a lot of characters and stories to keep track of – this is where it helps to have read Peaceful Slumbers first so you meet them more gradually! I enjoyed the paranormal elements in Peaceful Slumbers and it was great to see those ideas developed further in Sleeping Angel with new angles explored. It’s a great way of giving the victims a voice in the story as well as giving us clues and more mysteries to unravel. For me, this is a five star read. A real page turner that I couldn’t stop thinking about whenever I had to put it down (alas, work is a thing). I would definitely recommend the series to fans of paranormal mysteries and romance!

I’m not sure what I expected when I picked up this book but I was intrigued by the path taken by the author with this plot. It was an interesting take on what felt to be a throw back to a childhood favorite. Quirky and intriguing, I look forward to seeing how the story continues in the next part.

For me, this was the most beautiful book I’ve read in quite awhile. This book was beautiful as it brought to light just what makes Italy a great country. The scenes bring you closer to being in Italy itself as the author’s words transcend you there through the pages. The story wrapped around the scenery draws you in. This is one of the best books in a long time: Pick up your copy today!

The depth of this book is thought-provoking from almost every point of view. The characters are so much more than what meets the page. My heart instantly breaks for Dane but the truth is that once he turned to that darker character, the more I got scared for Mila and who they could be. Their ride throws you down a deeper rabbit hole and I hope you’re ready for it. This book is full of action, intensity and a romance out of this world!

Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC. This book is an absolutely fantastic book and the start of one of my favourite series! This book is exciting to read and I was hooked right from page one. I loved the fact that from the word go the author was clearly not afraid of throwing in obstacles that you don’t often see in books. The fact that the main character is in a wheelchair and around an MC I just loved. It made it different from any other MC book that I have ever read. Manda Mellett is an author I wasn’t familiar with a couple of years ago now and yet has very quickly become one of those that I would one click buy without even reading the description. I love her writing style and how involved she makes you get into each of her books. The characters are always so well suited and so easy to connect with. This book is a brilliantly strong start to a series and it absolutely worth the time!

This is a fantastic read. Nikki writing style real makes you feel like you are a fly on the wall watching these events unfold. This book pulls on your emotions alot and has some unexpected twist and turns. This book kind of reminded me of the ghost Whispers.
This is book 2 in this series. It contains the things I love, Mafia, danger and romance. The romance is steamy and passionate. There is a fine line between love and hate and we see that in this book. The characters are amazingly written that you feel so engrossed in their story.
Dane and Milana were ment to be together. Both members of families in the Sindicato they seem perfect for each other. However Milana wants away from the Mafia lifestyle. She wants to find herself so she does this by leaving the love of her life behind.
Fast forward 11 years later and Milana is back. She realises that her place is by Dane’s side. However after all the heartbreak she caused when she left Dane he isn’t so quick to forgive and move on.
Can they work through the past and be together? Will Milana accept the man he is today totally emerged in the Mafia lifestyle? Can Dane ever trust that he is enough for her or will they both set themselves up for failure and heartbreak all over again?

Sexy Drug is the first book in the Losing My Heart series by Melody Calder. It’s the first time I’ve read any work by this author but if this book is anything to go by then it won’t be the last. I want to know what happens next in this story for a start. Katie is the daughter of a very powerful crime lord and when someone tries to kill her, her father puts Ramone in charge of her safety with the added ‘request’ of do not touch her. That’s not an issue to begin with as both seem to seriously dislike one another until they get to know one another better. Needless to say Katie and Ramone become sexually attracted to one another but it’s more than his life is worth for him to even put a finger on Katie. Or is it? I loved reading Katie and Ramone’s story. It’s dark and raw in moments and not for the faint stomach in places. Let’s just say that I wouldn’t want to get on the wrong side of Katie’s father. He’s a very cruel and ruthless man and Katie is just a commodity to him. I was sucked into the story from the very start and devoured this in the space of a few hours. I just didn’t want to put it down. Definitely recommend.

This is the first book in the spicetopia series and the second that I have read of from this author. One thing about this author is that you are going to be reading some graphic scenes. Like holy hell, girl get-it scenes. So if you aren’t into that I would not recommend this author for you. While the sex scenes are wide eyes and fan-worthy the overall story is enjoyable. Jolie and Cy’s chemistry is wow. But can they both keep that spark when all their secrets are revealed? That is the true question.

This book is the first one that I have read from this author. The story was entertaining with some steamy moments. Sarah and James were both not looking for a relationship and agreed to scratch the other’s itch. Then, of course, those pesky things called feelings begin to develop, making them question could they be something more. It was a quick read for me. The internal monologue had me laughing and was on point with some of my own thoughts. I loved how open Sarah is about sex. Being a mother didn’t stop her from being herself. Just because you are a mom doesn’t mean you stop needed some TLC.

How I experienced this book: Why does this feel familiar? Reading… reading… Seriously, why does this book seem so familiar? Reading… reading… Mother of all that is good and pure – it’s a Smurf reimagining.
Ok, seriously though, it took me a little bit to get past the insta-lust/love vibe in order for it to even click that it was this kind of retelling. I can do insta-lust/love sometimes, but I wasn’t feeling it for this book. Now, that being said, I gave this book four stars because I have read thousands of books from squeaky clean to dark taboo and I have never once run across a Smurf reimagining. The creativity of finding something that hasn’t been retold hundreds of times was refreshing. This book ends on a cliffhanger so you’ll need to pick up the next book to continue the story.

Kissing Scars by Jim Shomos. I loved this book. It was a little different from the romantic comedies I usually read but it was so good. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. Its the story of Sanaya a computer games designer who moves to Australia in search of love and a family. Once she arrives she meets Leo and they fall in love. The only problem with that is, he is 20 years older than her and has 3 almost grown kids and he does not want anymore kids. Is Sanaya ready to give up her dream of having her own kids? Leo is at a point in his life where he wants to be a magazine writer and travel and doesn’t see anymore children in his future. Will Sanya and Leo be able to make it work? This book will rip your heart out and put it back together. Be prepared to read it from cover to cover once you begin!

This was a well written story by a new author to me. It was quite a refreshing read because the main character truly does remind me of people I know which made me feel quite a bit of sympathy for. The writer did a wonderful job writing about the circle of life, how we deal with life and death, and how it all ties together. The way that she writes in both past and present tense was a different, yet refreshing, change of pace for me. It’s not a happy-go-lucky book that is certain. It pulled at my emotional strings and had me bawling my eyes out in certain moments. While not quite the ending I was expecting it was a very poignant and proper ending in my opinion.

The Hunter’s Heart is the first in the Love After Earth series by Astrid Sharpe and is by far one of my favorite reads of the year.
The book follows human woman, Poppy, and a band of women that were stolen from earth, and Zensah, leader of an alien tribe nearly extinct, who thought he was meeting settlers not stolen women.
I literally felt like I was eating this book I read it so fast. I’ve recently gotten into more fantasy and sci-fi books and this one perfectly scratches that itch. The characters were fun to read and easy to relate to. I found myself liking Poppy, not liking Poppy, and going back to liking her. I feel that shows the true talent of a writer when a character can influence you so much. Zensah was a dream and did similar for me as Poppy. If you are into sci-fi even a little bit, this is definitely a book you should check out! The story was vivid with lots of detail and descriptive so you could imagine where all of this takes place.
I will definitely read this again and I can’t wait to start the next!

I enjoyed this suspenseful romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. This is a well developed story that is written with a lot of emotion. The characters are relatable and give life to the story. I enjoyed being pulled into the story and how it kept me turning pages to the end. This is a story about overcoming the past, learning to trust again and finding love and happiness is possible. I enjoyed the growth of this story and watching the characters overcome things. Is overcoming the past too much for them or will happiness prevail? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens with these characters as they bring the story to life before your eyes.
