Wrong for Him (Love Lottery, #3)Wrong for Him by Christi Barth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this series, with all that is within me, the author always brings together characters that mold perfectly together in more than one way. I love always the work they put into to reach the ending of their books for their characters. This one very much full of heart and a very happy wonderful read!

For me the story meshed super well together in more ways than one. Amelia had had real feelings for her brother’s best friend, Teague for quite some time. She always knew it would be a crime to pursue, but can you really deny matters of the heart? Fate brings them together on a project set for the community. Unexpected to them both is that they both feel something real, and both seemed reluctant to act upon because they both knew what was at risk. Perhaps though this was what was meant to be all along and finally they both were getting the happiness they both so very much deserved.

I loved the characters straight up. I loved more though what came with those characters It be it their interests or more defiantly their pasts. I found back story really made Teague and Amelia whom they were. It made the story so much more powerful and very real. I honestly loved this book.

The book was very well written and it was very well done. I can say i very much enjoyed it and was overly impressed with the writing techniques that brought the story to life! It was a good read, and it really convinced me on all aspects, I would say this is for sure a novel worth reading!

Silent Gavel (A Crawford Mystery Book 1) by Merissa Racine – Review by Wendy Wary

Silent Gavel (Crawford Mystery #1)Silent Gavel by Merissa Racine
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Loved the character development in this book. When Lauren stumbles upon the murder of her boss, unraveling the layers of Judge Murphy’s life only unfolds new mysteries about the woman Lauren thought she knew. It takes the help of everyone around her to keep Lauren from falling apart as the police close in on Judge Murphy’s killer. Everyone from the bakery shop owner to the old lady neighbor and the slew of characters in between were easy and fun to read about, with a few surprises and twisted along the way. This book kept me guessing until the end.

Forever: A Diamond Doms Novel by Ivy Nelson – Review by Jenni Bishop

Forever: A Diamond Doms NovelForever: A Diamond Doms Novel by Ivy Nelson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

Forever is the ninth book in the Diamond Doms series by Ivy Nelson and the last book in the series. This is the first book I have read of Ivy’s, and I apparently started at the end of the series so now I must go back and start at the beginning. But I do not consider it a hardship. Nope, who doesn’t like to read some hot and steamy romps with hot and sexy men and sassy women. Club Solitaire is a BDSM club that these men started. Each character has a story outside and inside of the club and their own book, but they all interlink and are involved with each story. Make sure you start with book 1 to read more about these Doms and their submissive.

Wrong for Him (Love Lottery, #3)Wrong for Him by Christi Barth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

 

 

Wrong For Him is the third book in the Love Lottery series by Christi Barth. This isn’t my first read from Ms. Barth- but it turned out to be my favourite (so far). I have come into this series at the back end, woops- something I do quite regularly, lol. Again, I was caught up by the blurb and failed to notice that it was the third and final book in the series. But, having said that, I never felt as though I was missing anything by not having read the other instalments first. Although now my curiosity has bee piqued, and having enjoyed this book, I will definitely be grabbing a copy of the other two books to read too.
I have to admit though that the story was just a little slow to get going and it did take me a little while to ‘get into’ and connect with the characters- but once I did, the story took off.
This is a bit of a mix of romance ‘tropes’- as there is a friends to lovers, brother’s best friend, and secret romance/relationship blend happening here. This combination worked really well and I loved the added angst, drama, and emotion that this recipe brought to the table.
I will definitely be keeping my eye out for Ms Barth’s next book release to jump into…

Thank you, Christi Barth!

The Girl and the Demon (The Girl and the Raven Book 3) by Pauline Gruber – Review by Angela Hayes

The Girl and The Demon (The Girl and The Raven, #3)The Girl and The Demon by Pauline Gruber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

The Girl and the Demon is the third book in The Girl and the Raven series by Pauline Gruber. As this is the third book in the series and continues the story that we started back in Book One, I highly recommend reading the first two books before diving into this one. There is a whole lot of important information, character details and development in those first two books which will enhance your reading experience of this book, and the series as a whole.
As with the other two books, this is a very original YA paranormal adventure- with witches, gargoyles, demons, magic, good vs evil, danger, agendas, friendship, drama, challenges, and a little romance- all wrapped up in a well-developed, complex, and multi-layered plot.
The adventure continues as Lucy (and friends) are tested on a whole new level- with the most powerful demon drawn into the mix. What happens makes for a captivating read! I certainly hope there are more books planned for this series!
Happy reading!

Thank you, Pauline Gruber!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

The Bastard Prince is the second book in the ‘It’s Raining Royals’ series by Alix Nichols. This is the second book in the series, and I really recommend reading the first book before starting on this one, as even though each book focuses on a different ‘couple’- there is an overarching story which connects the instalments. I reallly liked the first book- but have enjoyed this one even more.
As with the first book, this is a romantic comedy- with a little angst, drama, adventure, and intrigue. The story continues the quest for the keys to saving the (secret) kingdom- and I happily set off on the adventure alongside the characters.
It is another light-hearted and fun read that really captured my imagination…
Looking forward to Book #3!

Thank you, Alix Nichols!

This is one of the best supernatural romances I have read! The story line is not one that has been over played again and again. And the characters are easy to fall in love with. You want to get to know each of them and as you read through the book you can. I am excited too read the next book and learn more about those characters we have been introduced to in this book as well. I feel Danielle is a force to be reckoned with and vulture is sexy as all get out! Loved this book!!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Saratoga Roan by Bree M. Lewandowski starts off slow but builds up steam. There is so much detail written into the storyline I feel like I know what it is like to work on a horse ranch in Wyoming. The emotions of Rhett and Cassandra come across so strongly that I could feel myself getting frustrated or yearning for something to happen just like the characters were. This book does a wonderful job illustrating that things are not always what they seem. This felt like the beginning of a story that needs a series to continue expanding on all of the different characters and their relationship to one another.

What a great read by Seelie Kay! I really enjoy the way she writes! Her books are always easy to follow and keep you wanting more. Donovan is a super likable character! He’s handsome, successful and a gentleman! So why would someone want him dead? Even though it may better to keep his secret if he could die. After 2 attempts something has to be done. Trying to find the person responsible is like looking for a needle in a haystack! I have already started book 2!

How is it possible book 2 kept me on the edge of my seat just as much if not more than book 1! You don’t have to read book 1 first but I highly recommend it to get a better background. I still really like Donovan’s character and really take a liking to Marilyn. This story took a few turns I was not expecting. I was so eager to read book 2 I started it and finished it in the same day! I had to know what happened with the Vampire Coalition. I will definitely be looking at more of Seelie Kay’s books!

Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journey’s Through Book 1) by James Talisman Review by Melissa Saxton.

An amazing Sci-Fi and Fantasy Journey awaits as you transverse the Multiverse theory. A strange and mysterious voice visits multiple individuals from multiple universes with the same mysterious message. The message is cryptic, but they all have to find out what it means for them and how they are all connected to combat a evil force.

This book is an art form in how the characters are developed, giving you all the details necessary to both fall in love with characters, or have strong feelings of dislike in only short passages as you learn every characters backstory and how they tie into this journey.

Tying together all of these individuals stories is masterful, and kept me hooked and wanting to learn more. The book is definitely complex, and you will find yourself deep into the story with time passing quickly as you devour this story. Fans of science fiction, fantasy, dystopian societies, will all enjoy this story as it completely bends your basic understanding of the universe.

I was immediately looking for book 2 as soon as I finished the last page!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

The Last Danann is the third book in the Titanian Chronicles by Victoria Saccenti. This is such a fantastic series- with wonderfully descriptive writing and clever details that really brought the story to life. The author’s world building being both imaginative and well-constructed, which resulted in a richly vivid tale. As with the other two books, this is fantasy done well- with action, adventure, a little mystery, drama, danger, paranormal elements, supernatural beings, intrigue, tension, mythology, evil sorcerers, magic, and so much more.
If you haven’t read the other two books in this series, I highly recommend that you do so before starting on this story as there are connected characters and details that you will want to know about before diving into this book.
I really hope this isn’t the last we will see of the Titanian ‘world’ and Chronicles…. Looking forward to seeing what Victoria Saccenti does next.

Thank you, Victoria Saccenti!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

Forever is the ninth book in the Diamond Doms series by Ivy Nelson. I seem to have a habit of jumping into a series a bit backwards as when I started this book, I hadn’t noticed that it was the ninth, and final, book in the series. I was taken in by the intriguing blurb, one-clicking and diving in before I realised that I was coming in at the wrong end lol.
So, having said that, I really recommend reading this series from the beginning, to get the full information package of character introductions, as well as the bridging ‘mystery’ that spans the series, and the other intriguing details that I am sure would enhance your reading experience even more.
This is a contemporary romance with a sexy and erotic storyline that set my kindle on fire. The story is not for the faint of heart though- as it has some reallly intense BDSM scenes that may be too much for some readers. But, there is more to the story than just the sizzle and steam- there is mystery, tension, suspense, danger, adventure, action, and plenty of dramatic developments that had me flipping the pages to find out what happens next. I couldn’t put it down, reading the entire book in one session…… what a ride!
Even though I have come in at the end and have witnessed all the threads being tied up, I will definitely be going back to the beginning and reading the series as a whole to find out what played out previously. I am also adding Ms. Nelson to my ‘must read’ authors list.

Thank you, Ivy Nelson!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

WOW!!! Gabriel de LaTierra can see things, after his father passes, he tells him that he may come in many forms but will always be watching over him. Gabriel’s mother, Juana,…is evil incarnate. She is Mother Superior of an orphanage where Gabriel (a therapist for the county) sends children who are lost and needy.
The feelings that came with reading this book can be overwhelming. Children are abused, innocent people killed, all for the sake of keeping Mother Juana young and virile. Her hold on her son is more than just a mother’s love for her son. She resents that Gabriel got married to his wife, Consuela. Consuela gently tries to pull Gabriel from his mother, his work should not drain him as much as it does. Her love is unconditional, can she get through to Gabriel before it is too late?
Not necessarily a book I would pick up and read, but am so glad I did. Again…WOW!!

Wow! The author really knows how to bring a series together. This book brings all of the crew (family) together in a brilliant finale. Russell and Gemma are very strong characters and their ‘play’ walks a very fine line. One slip and it could be considered abuse. The writing is very clear that all parts are consensual though and the author balances the scenes with gentle moments. There is action, drama, self-discovery and lots of sexy scenes. I highly recommend this book and the whole series – it will not disappoint.

Love’s Refrain was such a good read! I was blown away by the time I got to the end of this book! I will admit at the beginning, I was feeling very iffy with the storyline and it seemed very strange to me, but as I kept reading I was completely enraptured and entranced. This was such a beautiful story the author told. I know the author says it’s based on around a movie or inspired by a movie, but I have never seen the movie so I was completely surprised at the storyline of this book. I cried while reading. It was so heartbreaking and so romantic it completely took me through the wringer of emotions. I’m so glad there’s going to be a sequel featuring Kat and Phillip!

This is a book of second chances, a contemporary romance which celebrates growth, love and loss in a relationship. After 5 years of break up, Cassandra and Rhett come face to face with each other, Cassandra wanting to give it a second shot and Rhett blaming her for breaking the relationship. Rhett has too much on his hands and the hurt and anger he feels towards her is understandable. How the two characters mature, understand each other and let the hard feelings go forms the central piece of this beautiful romance. I especially liked the way the two lead characters are portrayed, their hurt, their anguish and eventually the growth. It is a gradual process.
I enjoyed this romance, it was a good read.

This story made my Monday night well worth the late hours I stayed up to read. Seelie Kay brings us the 2nd story in the series, and this one was even better than the first. We continue book 2 in the series with the charming Donovan Trait in addition to newly turned lovely bride Shirley (yup the judge!). This time around we get more in depth with our characters and learn more about their love. Per stipulations from the Vampire Coalition to be married/together Shirley must be turned and any offspring or potential births prior to conception are to be determined and monitored by the vampire scientists. With no surprise given Donovan’s sexual nature Shirley is already pregnant and they have violated the agreement. As we continue their story they are now on the run to save their family and find a way to show the Vampire Coalition that the old ways are not going to work in this modern world and Donovan’s willing to go to any lengths for his family.

Not to give away the book but the first change messed me up, I haven’t stopped reading and gone to bed mad since the last Harry Potter book when I was a kid. I came back to the book the following night and I’m so glad I did but I was kept on my toes, to say the least. The characters were beautifully presented and described.

This was a great 5 star paranormal suspense.

Donovan is a vampire lawyer who finds his match in Judge Shirley. They fall for each other and in order to be together they agree to have Shirley go through treatments to turn her. There is something else they have to agree to as well but they get an unexpected surprise on their wedding day.

This is where the story really takes off and the Vampire Coalition are furious with them. What will happen if the coalition captures them? Will they get a HEA?

Overall this was a great read, we get suspense, action, and so much more. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next. I really liked Donovan and Shirley and the author does a great job of writing this story. I look forward to reading more from her. 1-click and get started today.

Seelie Kay knows how to tell a story! This story is original, funny, and unpredictable. Its my first time exploring one of her books, and I picked a great one to start!
We are introduced to Donovan Trait who is a Vampire, lawyer, and Alpha to the extreme. An expert and legend both in and out of the courtroom which may due to his 300 years of existence. Donovan himself could charm the blood straight from your body. When lawyers start to become targets for a murder Donovan is
high on that list, but what happens when you can’t kill a vampire? While he can handle his own he still has fears for his lady love who is a Judge, human, and as big a target as himself. He and his team work around the clock for answers as time continues to run out. A very interesting game of cat and mouse and by no means your typical Vampire book.

I loved this story so much that I wanted to speed read it, but I forced myself to slow down and really enjoy all of the tony details and the change back in forth from 1947 to present day.

Saratoga Roan by Bree M. Lewandowski is one of the best romances that I have read in a long time. Ms. Lewandowski’s characters are amazing from the rugged, handsome, over protective cowboy to the seductive, feisty, and demanding cowgirl he loves. It’s been a long time since Rhett has seen Casandra will Cassandra be able to convince him that she’s different then she used to be? Or will Rhett keep his distance and shun her? But what really set this apart for me was the horse ranch, and her use of descriptive details for all of the horses. Personally I love romance stories but throw horses in and that just makes it that much better for me. So if your looking for a great quick weekend read then I highly recommend Saratoga Roan.

Donovan and Shirley are to be married..of course there are conditions to the marriage when it comes to having children (since Donovan is a vampire already and Shirley is going to turn)….but things get a bit challenging when Donovan and Shirley learn that Shirley is pregnant and this does not sit well with the Vampire Coalition. Donovan and Shirley flee to protect their unborn baby. I just love this book…and you really want to cheer on Donovan and Shirley. Of course need I say I want more of this series!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
