When it comes to KG Fletcher, I always pick up her books. She has not disappointed me so far. This book is a masterpiece. The plotline is engaging and full of adventure of a beautiful love story. The characters are beautiful, full of life, and easy to relate to. The story is about a young woman who is a jazz singer who is coming off a tour. She is approached by a stranger who gives her a gift. This gift is a locket. With this locket, there is a message and it has a portal that takes her through time. That is when the adventure begins. I recommend reading this book to get the joy of reading the adventurous love story for yourself.

Why We Don’t Die In Dream: Book One by Debbie Zello is a brilliant book that really does leave you wanting more! There are so many twists and turns in this book you won’t know which way you are going. The author well and truly captures your attention on page one and doesn’t let go. I loved the main character. His journey is such an interesting one and I really enjoyed how woven into the story he is. This is a fantastic book and I seriously cannot wait for book 2!

Weep, Woman, Weep: A Gothic Fairytale about Ancestral Hauntings by Maria DeBlassie is such a powerful and interesting book. I was drawn to this book from the moment I read the description. As I started reading I found a book so compelling that I couldn’t put it down. It is quite a short read and yet the author manages to pack so much into. It has a depth about it that you don’t normally find in a book so short. I loved the story and I though the main character suited it perfectly. This isn’t the first book I have read by this author but it is definitely my favourite!

Kimberly Mullins brought to life an intriguing story. Emma is a strong female lead, and the plot is absolutely intriguing. The supporting characters are just as well-developed. The research regarding the time period was fantastic, and I could truly imagine myself within the pages. While cozy mystery isn’t quite my normal genre, I really enjoyed reading this book. My only struggle was with the interesting writing styles, but it didn’t detract from the story itself.

I really love the way Krysten Lindsay Hager makes me fall in love with young adult novels all over again every time I pick up one of her books. This book really captured the teen angst and emotions that we feel when we are traversing the world of dating. I especially love how she makes it relatable whether you are young or old, the emotions are the same and we often have the same difficulties determining the way to handle them. In Dating the IT Guy we get to see this play out very real and raw and in your face and I loved every moment of it. I was once again taken away to a time when life seemed so hard at the time but I know for a fact I would go back to the way things were, so simple and so minute in the grand scheme of things. I enjoyed this one and look forward to seeing what will come next form Ms. Hager.

The Bow: A Fated Mates Greek Myth Paranormal Romance (Her Three Immortals Book 3) by Hazel Storm 4 Star!!!!
Wow what more can I Say? This is the third book in tihs series I have read and oh boy I sure was not let down. I really have enjoyed this author’s take on a reverse harem. I find that the series is refreshing and unique. I have really enjoyed reading this series.
The characters are all very well written. I like how there is not just romance but a bit of drama too. Even though this is paranormal the characters have real life issues and this makes it so much better to read as it isn’t predictable and the reader can relate to the characters better. I cannot wait for more from this series.

I really enjoyed this take on a classic tale. It is beautifully written and changed to make the story more modern. The Cinderella in this tale isn’t rushing to meet the Prince. The Prince is happily married to another man. It is a beautiful mix of a classical fairy tale and a sci-fi twist with the nightmare creatures trying to take over. It is definately a great remake of a classic.
Ashling has the Cinderella life style. Her parents have passed away and she is left at the mercy of her step mother and step sisters, forced to become a slave in her own home. But that all changes when she spots things changing in their world. Their world which is protected from the outside by a dome. When things start entering her world from the outside she realises she needs to get help and she heads to the Palace.
Prince Callum has met and married the love of his life in Teague. The problem is the safety of his kingdom and the keeping of the protection of the dome relys on the blood of his heir. So now Callum needs to find someone who he can care for to become the mother of his child and to save the kingdom.
In true Cinderella fashion when the clock strikes midnight things start to change and this leads Prince Callum on a hunt for Ashling. Will he find her? Will she agree to mother his child? And what of the relationship between Prince Callum and Teague can it survive the addition of another person? And the main thing. Can they stop the nightmare creatures from taking over their peaceful little world?

All I knew going into this was that it was a fantasy romance based on the story of Cinderella that included monsters but boy was I surprised at what this story really held within its pages. This was a quick, fast paced story that I devoured really quickly! I’d definitely recommend it to an older crowd, as the first page or so of the book itself recommends, due to the sexual scenes being super spicy. The book is loosely based on Cinderella holding to her father passing away and leaving her with a horrid step mother and cruel step sisters, but also the going to the ball, and leaving a slipper behind after she flees into the night. There are added fantasy elements with the protective dome and monsters that I thought added a great new twist to the story. The characters and their relationships were developed well and modernized, original, and definitely not something you would find in your old school Cinderella story. This is a brand new refreshing take on a classic fairytale. There is no cliffhanger per say but it absolutely leaves you wanting to read more and will leave you looking forward to book two’s release. My only issue with this book honestly was the names! Callum and Ashling I didn’t have trouble with which was good due to the fact they are some of the main characters but Teague and Fionnuala and Bronagh ? I had trouble with those and every time I got to one of them it would pull me out of the story and I would have read a few paragraphs before I would be pulled back into only to stumble on one of them again. I ended up just calling Fionnuala “The Queen” for the whole book.

This was a story, a fairy tale really, that really played well with all my emotions. I felt so much when reading this. My heart was heavy through out the reading of this novel. I felt a lot, and I found this book was very well written with such a impact on my soul, it was one that when I finished it, I sat back and reflected on what I had just read, it gave me a feel into my own life, a thing that is healthy for all our souls to do.
La Llorona has always been a folk tale I have always had great interest in. The fear of the story, as well as the worry it brings, always intrigues me. Is it something to get into a mother’s mind to strike fear into her heart or or is it a folk tale to teach us to be afraid of what we do not know or understand? The story itself brings on heavy grief, and to me that was welcomed in truth. I had faced grief through out my life, but it is a part of life, and not something we should ignore. The story itself brought a lot on as I read through the story, there was a lot of aspects added here and there. It was very well written!
I loved how the story was a like a ocean with a crashing wave. From pain to grief to anger…there was much emotions felt on the pages as I read through this. I was left with a heavy heart by time I concluded it. This was a positive experience for sure. I loved how the author made the words and pages flow so easily. It was weaved together as if it was a perfectly constructed spider’s web. The story gave so much and in return I think it was meant to be a book that made us think, I know I certainly did!
I loved the writing skill of this beloved author. I was hooked truly. I had to sit and finish this book really in one sitting. I was entranced by the beauty of the story as well as the captivating words the pages brought to me. The author is truly gifted. I really loved it, and the author is needless to say, very talented in the story they had given to us, the readers. It was remarkable to read this in more ways than one! I think everyone would be benefited to read this story! I highly recommend reading this, in more ways than one!

Kayla and Tanner have undeniable chemistry. Their meet-cute in the coffee shop was funny and adorable at the same time. And what luck that the construction worker she was watching from her apartment every morning just so happened to be watching her too! I love that this story revolves around a single mother, a military wife/mother with a deployed husband, and everything that those two things entail. Kayla is working a job that she isn’t sure she loves; Tanner is working as a manager on the site rather than working with his own hands and getting a business ready for his brother-in-law when he comes home from Afghanistan, and Rad is still on his own personal “journey”. It made it extremely relatable and incredibly easy to read. Add in the intense steamy scenes and the budding romance between Kayla and Tanner and this book was amazing from start to finish. I love the relationship that was made between Kayla and Tanner’s sister and between the kids, but the ultimate heart-melting moment for me was between Kayla’s daughter and Tanner. This story was wonderful, and I am looking forward to reading more from Lara Ward Cosio. I suggest you do the same!
Whisper Creek is the seventh novel in the Logan McKenna series by Valerie Davisson.
Logan has accepted Ben’s marriage proposal. After a video goes viral, Logan decides to visit Oregon to clear her head as well as a consulting job. Where, she of course, finds a body.
Unfortunately, the prime suspects of the murder are friends of Logan’s.
The fact that their prime suspects were friends of Logan’s was a complete shock.
I really enjoyed this novel and I love this series. I get excited when I see that another novel has been released.
It has been great seeing the progressive of Logan’s character and the mysteries that she solves. Even the lengths she will go.

The Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison is a captivating story about Rowan. The story opens with Rowan and her cousin Davin sitting in a dungeon. The cousins had been caught smuggling Vodka from Socair to Lochlann. Lord Theodore interrogates the two and states that the punishment for smuggling is death. When Princess Rowan and Lord Davin stand before Duke Iire, he proclaims that the Summit will decide their fate. Much to Lord Davin’s dismay, Princess Rowan gains clemency for him by stating the smuggling was her fault, and he had only come along upon her request. The trip to the Summit lasts several days, and a romance builds between Lord Theodore and the princess. They keep their affair a secret even after they reach the Summit.
Lochlann was blamed for causing a war that caused the deaths of many Socairians. Since Socair consisted of 9 clans, the Summit was where the clans met and formed a council when a decision would affect all of them. Princess Rowan attempts to disguise the one feature that would show her affiliation with Lochlann: her fiery red hair. While at the Summit, Princess Mila befriends Princess Rowan, and introduces her to a different side of Socair. Despite attempting to avoid standing out, the council seems conflicted on what her outcome would be. Will they vote in her favor? Or will she die at the gallows?
I thoroughly enjoyed The Scarlet Princess. The flow of the story was steady with plenty of action. I loved how Princess Rowan was witty and forthcoming, never holding her tongue despite how others viewed her. Her red hair seemed to be considered a curse, and I wonder why that thought seemed validated by everyone. I only was able to connect this to possibly being a trait of Lochlann royalty. The romance between Lord Theodore and Princess Rowan seemed strange at first, but at the Summit, the reasoning fit perfectly. Mahle and Madison created a stunning 5-star book and I sincerely look forward to continuing the series. The ending is wide open for the many possibilities that await Princess Rowan.

I absolutely loved this book. It is a second chance romance and the story of Craig and Rachel definitely keeps you wanting more. Craig returns home to attend his high school coach’s funeral and runs into his high school sweetheart Rachel who is none other than the coach’s daughter. They have unfinished business to work through and it leads them back in to each other’s arms and hearts. I know I am already in love with this series and definitely plan on getting the rest of the books.

This was a good book right from the start, I do enjoy my romances and I certainly do enjoy my steamy stories that defiantly like to bring on the heat like a nicely heated oven. This amazing book certainly did that and then some! It was a book that truly sucked me in, and I could sit back and enjoy my coffee in my peace, and wonder what would happen next with all the characters! And that is exactly what I did!
The characters were so relatable in different ways. Kayla was a awesome character. She was a single mom, but that does not mean she does not have certain things she needs or wants fulfilled. Things a good cup of coffee just can not withhold to do! Throw in Tanner. Sexy, sweet, and a hard worker and has the right thing to squeeze in certain places. (Yes I id enjoy the visual of his perfectly described buns he has in various moments through out reading) The attraction between them is mutual for sure. They both have things going on and both in different ways, and they both know they need to prioritize their ends and their goals they are out doing…but perhaps a good amount of fun and pleasure was in the cards? I mean it is not like feelings or any other drama will come in the way of fun casual sex right?
That is when drama of course happens. Things are good for Tanner and Kayla. Maybe just too good. With every growing touch, or thrust I dare say, maybe just maybe one or both of them is realizing there is more to what makes the sex so good than just sex. Maybe they can not live without the other? Maybe that emptiness in their hearts they felt they need not worry about could finally be filled even if they always felt it was never needed? Sometimes the things you never knew you wanted truly are the things you absolutely needed,…but with good causal sex can cause drama other than catching something that will make your heart flutter…Kayla’s ex returns. I first off thought he was a crappy dad to her daughter. And a horrible person. I wanted him gone. Will be come in the way of Tanner and Kayla’s happiness. Or will the casual friends with benefits grow to be something only the great musicians write about?
The author did a amazing job at this book! The character development was amazing, and I was hooked from the drama to the steamy lustful filled moments, to rooting for a happily ever after by the end! i loved all the feels I had going for me as I read through. It was a well written story and everything molded together perfectly. I defiantly can not wait to read more by this author in the future1 Their ability to craft a great story as they did here, for sure makes them a worth while author to read!
Time travel with a twist. Awesome book – easy to read. So romantic with a love that transcends time. Creative storyline that dragged me in and kept me there. The characters were relatable and the writing flowed. I’m happy that there is a book 2 as I felt a bit hung out to dry at the end. Definitely recommend for romance lovers.

I am extremely familiar with this author as she is one of my favorite young adult romance writers. She has an amazing ability to capture the characters and their angst to perfection. This was no different. I am always able to read her books and feel like I am in these characters shoes at the same time and place. While I may not have enjoyed my teen years back then, I love going back and reliving it through these characters and their stories. As usual with her books, I was unable to put it down until the end. And once it was over I wanted I pick up the next book to keep the story going. If you love to read about teenage angst as much as I do, please give this story a read.

Swindler’s Revenge (Karina Cardinal Mysteries Book 5) by Ellen Butler
5 +++++ Stars
This series has seriously become one of my favorite series ever! I think this one might be my favorite, I say might because it changes every time I read one! This author already sits up in my favorites and when a new release comes out it’s just automatic no matter the title, the synopsis or the cover, if it has her name..It’s an auto one click!
You could read all of these as standalones. Although I couldn’t imagine not having all of the books read in order to get the full effect. Especially this one, as I believe you would feel like you’re missing something. Also the connection to many of the characters truly needs to be made and understood to fully appreciate this story.
Miss Butler never stops making me smile and many times laugh out loud with Karina’s antics, and I’ve mentioned many times how I’d love to be her friend and partner in solving these mysteries she keeps falling into. I connected to her in the first book and absolutely love her!
The story kept me guessing and there were times I was so far off base I just laughed at myself.
I can not recommend this series and this book high enough and I can not wait to start at the beginning and read them all over again in the future!

Notebook Mysteries by Kimberly Mullins is a fantastic book. Emma, our main character, is bright, witty, and such a strong female lead! I found myself walking in her shoes to solve each mystery and to fall a bit in love with Jeremy and rooting for their romance. The book is set in 1880’s Chicago and is such a wonderful tale of family, business, and mystery. The relationship between Emma and her sister Dora is so strong and supportive of all the characters I find myself envious of that relationship as I do not have a sister. Emma is such a strong well written character, and the supporting cast is quirky, balanced and exciting. I never thought I would pick up this book to read on my own but look forward to many more by Mullins. Mystery, intrigue, and family all rolled into one great book. As a woman who comes from an abusive relationship many years ago, it was refreshing to read about how these abused women are helped and nurtured to create lives for themselves with the help of Emma and her family. Absolutely a heart-warming book that really touched my soul! I totally give this book 5 stars in hope that others will read Notebook Mysteries and fall in love with such a warm and caring family who only lives to help others. This is exactly what I like to read in books and is so needed currently.
This is my first book by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. It was amazing. I loved how I was engaged from the very beginning. I could not put it down. Truly a page turner. I found myself lost in this book while trying to find out what was going to happen next.

5 Stars Something Lost (Funerals and Weddings Series Book 1) by Bernadette Marie
Something Lost is the first book in the Funerals and Weddings Series by Bernadette Marie. This is a Contemporary Romance about second chances. I absolutely loved this book and being pulled in from the beginning I was lost in the pages and had to know what was going to happen next. I’ve read several books by this author and I’m a huge fan and this looks kike this series will go on my re-read list as well. There were parts of this story my heart ached and my emotions were all over the place but it could have had something to do with my life at that moment. This is Rachel and Craig’s story. These two were a thing in high school he was the star football player and she was the coach’s daughter. Things happened and it tore them apart but they are brought back together years later after her dads funeral. Can these two get a second chance? But will past secrets tear them apart again? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Love’s Refrain is book one in The Stardust Duet by K.G. Fletcher and is a time travel romance adventure story. Love’s Refrain is a beautiful heart-warming story told over the past and the present as our heroine travels in time. It is one of those stories that once read you have the desire to read all over again and not let go. These wonderful characters found their way into my heart. Once you start this book you will not be able to put it down. I enjoy KG’s easy flowing writing style.
It starts with a locket and a mysterious message and a portal that thrusts you back in time. It takes her on an unexpected journey where she finds a strange world where love, jealousy and war reside. One man but two different versions in two contrasting worlds.

Entwined by A.L. Morrow is a Cinderella retelling and the first book in the Stone and Cinder series. It is a fairy tale with a major twist. It is a MMF tale that is scandalous and sexy and a bit fabulous and it is definitely original and different. We have magic and myths, Prince Charming, his hubby and as AL puts it a killer pair of shoes. It is a menage a trios fantasy romance tale where things go bump in the night and turn in to more than just pumpkins at midnight.

Stand Your Ground I enjoyed this book. Cady has a lot to lose in this race against time and crime itself in this murder mystery/thriller. There is suspense with some typical triggers of things such as BLM movement and Cady has to stand her ground and try to fight against her status being stripped from her. The question is will she be able to? Is this typical white privilege? Is this even about white privilege or is there more to the story going on and can she hold her own against the world? Read on and find out.

Can’t something happen to this piece of crap Benito because he’s just no good for anyone. This book had me entranced and I read it in less than a day. The author Amy McKinley wrote this book so well you can’t help be pulled in. I be reading the next in her series as this is only book 1.

This book pulled me in immediately! With lots of engaging characters, No Way Out will definitely keep you on your toes. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing, as well as some romance, so there’s a little bit for everyone. Of course, there is also lots of action to be had. Even though I’m more of a sci-fi/fantasy reader, this easy read was a page turner that I would highly recommend to anyone!

Resistance leader Hunter Kane was trained from birth to be the ultimate soldier. He has one purpose and one purpose alone: take down the UNR. After a near-fatal attack and a narrow escape from death’s door, Hunter finds his world turned upside down. He spent his entire life as a killer. A soldier. A savior? An emotionless robot with one job. But he can’t fight the feeling he gets when he stares into the eyes of the woman who saved his life. He was born to be a fighter, but suddenly, he’s not so sure that’s enough for him. What will Hunter choose when he must decide between his purpose and his heart?
Rain had not seen another human being in two years since she’d stowed herself away in an ancient bunker, content to live out her days in hiding.

Rain spent her whole life dreaming of the Resistance only to be thrown into it by the man who started it all, but how will he react when he finds out who she truly is? Rain desperately believes in their cause, and believes in the sparks flying between her and Hunter even more.
Can they really find happiness in this world that’s fallen apart, or will Rain’s secrets destroy them both and end the Resistance once and for all?

She is a romance writer, dabbling in multiple sub-genres including contemporary romance and romantic suspense. No matter what the subgenre, all of her stories include sexy heroes, strong heroines, and sparks that fly off the page.
When she isn’t writing, you can find Brittany reading steamy romance novels, swimming at the beach, making her own candles, and loving life with her very own alpha hero.

Amy Mckinley is starting to become one of my favourite authors. This book was brilliant I could not put it down. Liliana is the daughter of the Mafia boss and Max is assigned to be her bodyguard. But she isn’t allowed to choose who she wants to be with, her father has a marriage arranged for her but it is only for his gain. Maybe yet she can’t fight the pull towards a certain sexy bodyguard.

Well this is the type of love and care I now need in my life. Liliana is a strong independent woman that carries some heat. What gets me is the mystery and the wonder what can happen next, and they did amazing with the cover art Max is yum!

This is the best so far by Amy McKinley. This writing has you truly visualizing the characters.

No Way Out is a riveting Romeo-Juliet type tale about two Mafia members. I’d heard a lot about Amy McKinley, so I had high expectations going into this book, and let me tell you- Yall. She does NOT disappoint! While it did take a second into the book for me to fully get a grasp of everything that was happening as all the characters were introduced, once you get past that part, it’s hard to put the book down! I absolutely loved it, and loved the way she wove the story around. 10/10, will be reading more of her books!

This book was amazing! Revenge at its finest. Kel O’Connor has woven this tale that is original, suspenseful, and a complete page turner. The characters were well developed and you could easy relate to each of their plights. Amy is tormented by guilt regarding her sisters death, and becomes obsessed with getting revenge. With constant emotions of guilt and pain she is estranged from her family who she believes finds her to blame. When her team accepts a case that is related to the very drug lord who murdered her sister she becomes closer to catching the killer and getting her closure. What she does not expect is Hugh the man who hired her agency to be someone who brings out her lust and possibly even her love. With many twists and turns this dramatic and suspenseful story will have you unable to put this book down until the end.
