A different take on the werewolf mythos and mating. Normally you read about an Alpha wolf simply walking into his mates life and taking over, but this is a tale of partnership, exploration and love. There is a fine line between smutty and teasing and this book rides that line perfectly! Nightfall is probably one of the first books I’ve read in a long time that shows that not all romance novels have to be having one person be strong in a relationship. I was immediately taken with the fact that instead of a lot of angst and issues, Tamara and Josh work through their issues and become a better couple because of it. I love finding something like this on my shelves and I’m really happy that I was able to read this, no, DEVOUR it! I’m so looking forward to future novels by T.K.!
This story grabbed my supernatural heart’s attention right away. Vampires? Check. Lycans? Check. Angst and lust and absolutely not following the rules. You guessed it, check.
We follow Tasha, the vampire who questions everything and Levi, the lycan throughout the story.
I was absolutely sucked in (see what I did there) from the moment I started reading. The story progresses very quickly and it’s not something I wanted to put down. It doesn’t leave you disappointed and I truly hope there is more to this!

Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series by Manda Mellett.
I’m already a fan of this author so I was really looking forward to starting a new series. This book did not disappoint! The story had me hooked from the start, Sophie’s story is an emotional one and the author isn’t afraid to tackle difficult issues, although it is done with care, you can feel Sophie’s pain. There are a lot of raw emotions to process, and a few surprises along the way. There is so much love and life throughout this story that the pages just kept turning and I read it in a day. The characters are already well developed and I’m looking forward to getting to know a few more of their stories. A fantastic start to a new series!

Brink of Denial is the first full length book in the Sons of Sindicato series and follows the prequel novella Sons of Sindicato. It is a dark and twisted Mafia romance by Sonya Jesus and Cam Johns. They are new authors to me with this series but I’m absolutely loving it so far and will definitely read more from them. We first met Dane in the novella as he played quite a major part in his brother Seth’s story. We are also given a bit of the background of Dane and Mila in the novella. In saying that, you could read this book without having read the novella as the author’s do a fantastic job of making sure all necessary information is included for you to fully understand this story. I absolutely loved Dane and Mila’s story. It’s a classic second chance romance with the added bonus of it having a mafia setting. Having been sweethearts since childhood, Dane was gutted when Mila left to pursue her modelling career just as he was about to propose to her. Now she’s back and she wants Dane back but although he is still in love with her, he’s not willing to let her break his heart a second time. The characters are very well written and at times you love Dane and at times you want to slap him for being so cruel to Mila. The story is gripping and the added Mafia family feuding makes this a definite page turner that will make you drop an ‘F’ bomb when the authors take the story in a direction you will not see coming. A definite 5 star read.

Second book of the series and it start off strong. Dane annoys me so much his character is frustrating as hell. Mila can be frustrating as well and obnoxious. There is always danger awaiting these to with the mafia in tow watching everyone’s moves.
Mia does not want her old lifestyle but the past alwsys has a way of catching up with you right. Can Dane be understand about her past?
You got to read to find out. So what are you waiting for grab a copy today.

Holy..Holy Smoke! This story just blew me away and left me wanting more! It’s a total mind-blowing story. I couldn’t put this down and when I did I couldn’t wait to get back to it. Just to find out what would happen. My emotions have been all over the place.
The characters just held me enthralled and I became immersed in their world. I go from loving them to wanting to smack them on the back of the head….saying idiot! I enjoyed their depth, emotions and honor. I love the mafia element. It makes some things expected but others are complete shocks. I loved getting to know these characters. I don’t have a favorite because Mila and Dane are hoth wonderful. Gia…well I wonder about her. Seems she was going to do something but then the idea just dropped off the face of the earth never mentioned again. I mean they were busy but a slight mention would have been good. Maybe at the party Dane could have cornered her at the beginning.
I did have some problems with Chapter 22. I felt some parts were missing and even backtracked thinking I could find it. Mila went to talk to Dane but never did because someone else was there and a distraction occurred. So in Chap 22 Dane is talking like he knows all everything…I mean everything that she was supposed to tell him plus a bit about Nico. I felt like I missed the telling or it was assumed that she told him?
Overall this is much improved from the first of the series. This has more depth to the story as well as the characters. There are references and some of this story takes place at the same time as book 1/prequel in here so for less confusion it is helpful to read that. I do Love this story and can’t wait for more!

Jeremy Full of Grace by Greta Cribbs is a very inspirational sci-fi
One youngster gives a ray of light in a fading world. Midwife Leslie wanders the countryside eight years after a pandemic destroyed most of the world’s population, leaving the survivors barren, looking for signs that humankind may yet have a future. She had no idea that indication would come in the form of Jeremy, a seventeen-year-old Catholic lad who claims to have been pregnant after a vision from the Virgin Mary.
Leslie, an atheist, is suspicious of Jeremy’s narrative, but she can’t reject what the physical facts and her trained eye tell her: Jeremy is clearly carrying a kid within his body. There are doubts about Jeremy’s account of events, but even as Leslie wrestles with her own conflicted sentiments about religion, she knows she has a job to fulfill: ensuring the safe delivery of this kid who may well be the endangered human race’s final chance.
I loved this story and the concept of it as well.I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting.

I definitely got some Fifty Shades of Gray vibes from this book. BUT it is also different Kristina is a much more complex character with some depth and layers. Alexander is yummmmm with a capital YUM.
What I loved most about this is that Kristina isn’t the sweet innocent character you would expect, she also has a complicated past.
My only critique is that I struggled with the female narrator’s voice when she did the other characters. But it doesn’t take anything away from the story.

This story is a great beginning to the Miss Series. Full length and filled with a building romance or the best enemy to friends story. This story is not for those under 18, due to steamy adult behavior.
Kendall Tate has the worst job and equally awful boss. Problem is he is not only good looking, but sexy too. If she is not careful she may get fired much sooner than she wants. Thrown into a trip with her boss could be just what will push her out the door. Liam Davenport struggles with the beauty behind the eyes of his assistant. He must stay away, no matter how far he is. The smell of her strawberry lip gloss draws him closer. What will become of these two people, while away from the office for a week? Will Kendall and Liam be drawn together, or will one of them walk?
Aubrey Bondurant has written this non stop page turner. I will forever remember this story, and her characters. Many feels will play out in this story. As you board the rollercoaster of emotions. This is just the beginning of this series, and I can’t wait for book 2. Well Done Aubrey Bondurant! Well Done!

I can’t say enough good things about this book. I felt so many different emotions with this book including those on a very personal level. Being the mother of a child with disabilities, tears were shed. The authors emotions were extremely present in this book. I felt as if I were truly in the story and it hit so many places close to my heart. I felt as if I were in a heart to heart therapy session with a dear friend and she was telling me everything that I needed to hear. This is a book that every mother should read especially mothers who can relate with all the same struggles and victories. This book came to life for me and it is a book that I will refer back to for not only help but for inspiration.

Listen to this book! I was hooked from the beginning! S.W.A.T. Sergeant Marcus MacArthur is as hot as it gets. You love a man in uniform? LISTEN TO THIS BOOK! He’s a badass, and he knows it too. So, of course, he draws the attention of his new neighbor Sarena, a nurse in the emergency room at the hospital. They both work funky hours, they both work adrenaline filled jobs, I’ve never seen a couple more made for each other. But there are downfalls to these careers they’ve picked, and this book shows those very clearly. Can they make it through these dilemmas? Or will they die trying? If you like well written books narrated by people who bring the characters to life, listen to this book. If you like steamy romance scenes that you’ll want to listen to again, listen to this book. If you like twists and action, listen to this book. Basically, listen to this book. It’s amazing and worth the time.

This is the second book in the Sons of Sindicato series and just like the first it’s about loyalty, being true to who you are, and being with the right person even if that love takes a long time. The love in this one sure does take a long time and honestly, there were moments where I genuinely felt like pulling out my hair at the dopiness of some of the characters. Still, it’s well written and an interesting read. Mila Blanc has left behind her old life and old love to pursue bright lights and fame, but n the quiet she finds herself pining for all that she had left behind, especially Dane Giordano. He meanwhile has not been able to get Mila out of his system and slowly that has festered into something that looks a little bit like bitterness and hate. When Mila returns, determined to gain back everything that she rejected before, Dane is determined that she will prove herself and he doesn’t make it easy. But Mila isn’t a pushover either. It’s an interesting read, well written in a way that gets your right in the feels. Even if the feels are frustration at the complete obliviousness of the characters. Still, it’s well worth a read and for anyone that loves hot and steamy sexual tension then this is the book for you.

Holy hotness! Dane is raging heat and Mila just cannot give it up no matter how hard she wants too. As children of the Sindicato, they grew up together. Mila wanted to get out and left for a chance at a modeling career…the night before Dane wanted to propose. Heartbreak city! Fast forward to 11 years later…drama, lingering love, family secrets and you have an explosive love story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Once I started this one, I just couldn’t put it down. The action sucks you in and you just can’t get out. The plot keeps you engaged. The characters are so well-written you can feel the moods and the emotions. I love this series.

Well, this was a hot one!! I should have guessed from the cover but even so! I loved every second of this book and I am so excited to read the rest of the series! It was definitely a quick read for me because once I started I couldn’t out it down. This is definitely up there with my favourite reads of 2021! Vanessa was a great lead character to read about, I really liked her. The three leading men in the story were definitely enjoyable as well!! All of them were very different but all had this pull to Vanessa. I haven’t quite decided who my favourite might be yet! I liked the cliff-hanger and it definitely has me wanting more!!

This was a lovely children’s book and one I would definitely recommend for young readers. The authors writing was really easy to follow and the story was interesting. I could definitely see young readers reading this book and wanting to read more of the series. It definitely got my imagination going! The authors descriptive language could definitely be used as a talking point for readers as well as some of the themes that come up in Tally’s story.
Definitely an enjoyable read and one I would recommend!

Next Door to a Star by Krysten Lindsay Hager is a cute YA contemporary novel that hits you in all the feels. Hadley is a 9th grader whose best friend has recently moved away partway through the school year, leaving her with no friends and what will most likely be a very boring Summer. That is until she is offered the opportunity to go visit her grandparents for the entire summer, who just so happen to live next door to teen TV star, Simone Hendrickson. Simone is everything that Hadley wishes she could have in a friend, including being popular, and throughout the Summer she learns the importance of friendship and that perhaps being pretty and popular isn’t always what it is cracked up to be. This story really brings out what being a not-so-popular teen is all about. If you have ever experienced being left out or not having many friends then you will definitely relate to this book, just as I did. This story really showed the side of being a teenager that not everyone sees and makes you realize that growing up is harder than it seems sometimes. I enjoyed reading this book and I am excited to put the sequel on my to-be-read list for future reading.

When an unexplained plague wipes out most of the world’s population, the remaining people are shocked, scared, and for the most part unable to have children. Leslie, an agnostic midwife, travels the country, desperately seeking someone, anyone, who is pregnant. What she doesn’t expect, however, is to meet Jeremy–17 year old boy who appears to be, of all things, pregnant! Jeremy claims he became pregnant after a visit from the Virgin Mary.
Jeremy Full of Grace was an interesting read. Told from several points of view, it gives a sense of a simpler time, without television, radio, cars, and even hospitals. The story drew me in, and I enjoyed it. Similar to the birth of Christ, Jeremy’s pregnancy helped the characters and the reader discover–or rediscover–what Faith is. Strong, independent characters and a focus on God made this a wonderful read. Highly recommend!

I wasn’t sure what I was going to reading when I picked up this book, the synopsis didn’t give too much away and the author is new to me – but I like to step out of my comfort zone at times so I thought I would give it a go and I really wasn’t disappointed at all. The story had so many different layers to it and I thought I would have found it confusing but the author did an amazing job with it. The characters were really interesting to read about and my heartstrings were definitely pulled a few times throughout. I did find myself invested in the characters, their lives and stories and it had this real feel about it. It was definitely surprise read for me and one I would absolutely recommend!

In His Kiss was a great read and I really enjoyed it. The authors writing was engaging, easy to read and the storyline was good. I liked that characters, Jordan and Xia, and I think because their story spanned a long time in their lives, I really felt like I understood how they felt about each other. It wasn’t straight forward, there were some complexities to it but I couldn’t help myself from rooting for them. I could really feel the inner turmoil of both of them when it came to what would happen if they crossed the line and it ruined their strong friendship forever.
I am really looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future. @katie View all my reviews

This was my first Hazel Storm novel and my first novel based on Greek Mythology, needless to say, I am hooked on both! While it has 220 pages, The Don felt like a shorter story in all the best ways! When it comes to the character development, plot speed, and world-building, Storm dives straight in to give you an immediately vivid experience from the first page. The story has a quick but well-developed arch that keeps moving without feeling rushed at all and the perfect amount of steam to keep you wanting more. My only head-scratcher came when Raef explained gods to Van, she asked a legitimate question and was given an honest answer, but it didn’t shock her in the least…which it should have unless gods are an accepted part of society in her world…but they weren’t to my knowledge. So that made me wonder, but I decided maybe gods weren’t a complete unknown and went with it. Overall, it is a great quick read, and I CAN NOT wait to read The God, The Bow, and The Box!! For The Don, Van is my favorite character, she seems real, relatable, genuine, and has some snarky internal dialogue. She is full of love for her family and has a huge heart towards all her salon’s clients, but more than that she is just a genuinely good person that you want to succeed in life. But this is where Storm decided to have some fun! A beautiful heroine with a heart of gold meets three half-brothers who shake up her life completely. The Don of the Underworld, an Angel, and a demi-god of Earth oh my! Grey is sexy, intriguing, and frustrating, Raef is thoughtful, handsome, a true gentleman, and we don’t know a lot about Aroz yet, but a little fat baby cupid has nothing on this tall drink of water! Like I already said, I cannot wait to read The God next because I have to find out what happens between Van and her men! (FYI: So far this is not a menage’ book or even really a reverse harem or really a love triangle…I’m not sure what it is exactly…but I’m loving it!!)

This series just gets better and better! This book picks right back up where the last one ended. Cam is devastated by his loss and confused by his feelings for Freja. I love that we get to see Freja’s viewpoint in this book as well. Together they make new friends and discover horrifying things, not only out in the world, but within domed communities as well. I could barely put this book down. The characters just seem so lifelike and relatable, I found myself invested in their story and feeling their emotions. I absolutely can’t wait for the next book to come out!

Simons – Review by Elizabeth Rosenberg
Isra and Astrid have been very naughty. They seem to have fallen over to the dark side and now it’s time to take responsibility for their actions. Isra is a witch back from the dead but she doesn’t remember what happened. You find yourself empathizing with Isra even though she is a bit dark. We all fell that way at times. She is just trying to figure out what happened and get her life right. I felt a lot empathy for her. Though he came in at the end, Samuel was my favorite character because he felt like Astrid’s conscience. What are you going to do? Make the right choice. Being a lover of old castles, I found the descriptions of Isra’s castle made it fun to picture as I read. Overall, it was a fun book. Great theme, fun characters.

Red Coat by Isobella Dunn is a cute little romance story with a bit of mystery thrown in to add some intrigue to the story. Sara, our main character is a teenage runaway and has been bounced from foster home to foster home. We get to follow along with her as she is an adult and now must face her own delinquent case and help Rachael overcome her fears of the foster system as well. But wait, a curveball has been thrown at Sara when she returns to Victory to reclaim her delinquent. Red Coat is a great read with Sara the main character being so easy to identify and empathize with. The few detours away from the romance into the intrigue are beautifully written and provide a relief from the typical romance genre. The intimate scenes are loving, tender, and heart warming written in such a way that the love the characters have for each other jumps off the page and into your heart. What a great read and I highly recommend following this author for more incredible stories. Fun and easy to read, Red Coat is perfect for a quiet afternoon by the pool, or a night wrapped up in a blanket by the fireplace. You will not be disappointed!!
All my life, it seems, I’ve made mistakes. Once, I lost everything. Failure seems to follow me around.
I didn’t spot what a snake Snake was—he had planned a mutiny right under my nose. Yeah, he did well when he appointed me as his VP. I followed him blindly, never suspecting a thing.
Now Snake is dead and I’m the prez. I still spend my days doubting myself, but I’ve got the whole MC depending on me. If I get it wrong, it won’t just be me who goes down.
Then I meet her, a woman who needs me to keep her safe. I should warn her to stay far away, tell her I’m not a man she should lean on. I’m not a person to trust when I don’t have faith in myself.

Choices, always choices. I thought I did right when I left everything behind to make a new life, choosing which of my two adult children now needed me the most.
We should have been safe in our new life—nobody knew who we were.
But we’ve been found.
Luckily, before danger strikes, the Satan’s Devils ride up to our door.
I’m no spring chicken. I’m not looking for a man in my life. But I need protection, I need help. It’s time to make a stand and not run anymore.
There’s only one man I can depend on to keep us safe. The trouble is, he’s Lost.
Manda’s life’s always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she’s still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman?
There isn’t enough space to list everything that’s happened to Manda, or what she’s learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she’s met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected.
Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area’s claim to fame being the Wilkin’s Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter.
Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.

I’ll See You Again (Reigning Hearts, Book Four) AUDIOBOOK by KG Fletcher. I love KG Fletcher’s rock-star romance because I appreciate sizzling opposites-attract stories and heart-wrenching sentiments.

I’ve always been a fan of paranormal romance and this book is up there in my top favorites! This is an absolute must read! Tasha and Levi aren’t supposed to even speak to each other. One night changes everything for both of them and life isn’t the same afterwards. I cannot wait to read book two in the series! I honestly cannot say enough good things about this story. The author knows just how to pull you in and keep you wanting more! This story is perfectly written! I read this in less than 24 hours!!! I highly recommend this book!

I just finished book 2, and all I can say is wow! What an emotional roller coaster! TS Simons has done it again. I had a hard time putting it down. This story is so well-written and the characters are very relatable. I felt like I was feeling Cam’s emotions with him. Cam grows a lot through this book and learns more about himself and the world around him. I have truly enjoyed this series so far and cannot wait to read the third book!

Simons – Review by Elizabeth Rosenberg
This audiobook was just okay for me. There were some things I enjoyed and some I flat out didn’t. 3 stars because it kept me entertained, and the beginning and end were enough to have me seeking out book 2.
I enjoyed the first few hours of the audiobook, being introduced to recent college graduate Krystina “Kris” Cole, and her (literally) falling for Alexander Stone, a Billionaire who was interested in buying the property housing Krystina’s job, Wally’s supermarket. I also enjoyed the last two hours of the audiobook, hearing Krystina opening herself up and accepting more of the relationship, and trusting Alexander, until it all went to hell (of course). The sex scenes, the few there were, were hot and sensual.
I found Alex to be a tough Protagonist/love interest to like. He may be written as a Dom but I didn’t feel that he was actually supporting Kris in discovering the BDSM lifestyle and “training her” as a sub. His internal monologue stated numerous times that the Dom/sub relationship didn’t work without trust and honesty, yet he withheld so much from Kris so that the relationship already faced an uphill battle.
I thoroughly enjoyed the narrators for this audiobook. I thought both Lacy Laurel and Jeffrey Kafer did a wonderful job.
This is book one in a series, so beware the cliffhanger. It was enough to keep me reading the series though, and as of about 25% in, I enjoy 2 a whole lot more than 1.
Trigger warning for survivors of sexual and/or physical abuse.
If you do not enjoy books about BDSM then this book/series flat out isn’t for you.
