My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first time that I can recall that I have read Ms. Copeland. I am a fan of both Vampire Diaries and Mortal Instruments so this book caught my attention based on that comparison. I had so happy that it lived up to it and more. My heart went out to Alena and was excited to see her grow as a character. I don’t even have the words to talk about her “imaginary friend” Chase. This book kept me captivated the whole through and was definitely worth the read if you enjoyed the other two series that it was compared to.

Tenacious (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 6) by Via Mari – Review by Kerry Carr

Tenacious (Billionaire Bodyguards # 6)Tenacious by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 6th book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series and these books just keep getting better and better. These books can be read as a standalone because each book revolves around a different couples relationship but the characters make appearances in all books so for a proper understanding of the characters and their stories I suggest reading them from the beginning.

These books have the perfect combination for me, danger and excitement and hot alpha males that will do anything to protect the woman that holds their heart and their families. The passion in the story is so intense but it always leaves you wanting more.

This story follows Nick and Allie’s story. They meet in a previous book and this book continues 1 month later. With the feelings between them running high and the danger from their shared enemy still present Nick decides to return back into Allie’s life to protect her and give in to this connection between them.

There’s one problem in his plan. Allie herself. While she can’t deny the chemistry and attraction between them she doesn’t do relationships, and her job as an nurse makes even thinking of a relationship difficult.
But now they are thrust together in another dangerous situation where Allie’s life is in danger and the only person able to protect her is also the man who could break her heart and completely destroy her.

Tenacious (Billionaire Bodyguards #6)
By Via Mari

4-stars

Tenacious was another great story by this incredible author, I have read lots by this author and I have yet to be disappointed! This is the sixth book in the series, a series that should be read in order. I skipped a couple books of this series because I got so excited reading this synopsis that I just couldn’t wait to read Allie’s story, and while I loved it, I think I would have enjoyed it more had I followed the series from start to finish.

I love how this storyline never has a dull moment, there’s always something that keeps me captivated and sitting on the edge of my seat. It’s intense, action-packed, dramatic and oh so steamy, a really well-rounded story.

I would absolutely recommend this book to others!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

In one word, underwhelmed would be how I can describe my feelings on Via Mari’s book Tenacious, book 6 in Billionaire Bodyguards series. The main characters of Allie and Nick were just not interesting. I always appreciate character development but felt both were just lacking in this area. The overall storyline of human trafficking was decent but the storyline is only a portion of this book. I wanted to care more about the main characters involvement in the storyline but just failed to connect with them. I know this is part of a series and a number of readers will love this story. I for one struggled to continued on and was happy to finish this book and move onto a book that has more character interest.

Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine

Shadows of Doubt is the second book in the A Crawford Mystery Series by Merissa Racine. Holy Cow what an intense ride . This is a mystery that is an intense yet packed with action and mystery . Once you start reading its really hard to put down. This is a fairly new author to me but I’m a fan already. I do highly recommend reading the first book if you haven’t already its just as addicting as this one. Lauren is a court reporter she’s desperate for money so she jumps at the chance at any jobs that come her way even if it means doing a job where her ex is the new judge. When a elderly woman is found murdered and one of jer workers is being accused of the crime. Lauren knows something isn’t right about all of this . But is she willing to risk everything to try and prove he’s innocent? I don’t want to spoil anything about this on the edge of your seat mystery. I highly recommend reading this to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine

4 out of 5 Stars

Merissa Racine brings the suspense each time. I was sure I knew who the killer was. Then, wham! Twist!!! I didn’t see it coming. I was blindsided. But, I saw all the clues that had been there from the beginning. The ending is not what I expected. I hope that there are more mysteries coming!

Lauren Besoner has been freelance court reporting since her ex-husband, Tony, became the judge. She knew that she could not work for him. Lauren agrees to cover for his court reporter while she is on maternity leave. This puts Lauren smack dab in the middle of the biggest thing the little town has ever seen, a murder trial. Lauren doesn’t believe that the accused is guilty. She winds up discovering the real murderer and so much more. Will Lauren ever be the same?

I didn’t understand the reason for all the testimony. I have to admit that it dragged on for me a bit. I realized that all of it was important. If not for the details provided by the individual witnesses, some of the reasons when the real killer is revealed wouldn’t make sense. I don’t think we have seen the last of Ray. Impatiently waiting for the next one!

This is the first book I have read from this author and she now has a new fan. This book is for kids but I really enjoyed it as well. My son and I took turns reading it. We fell in love with the characters in the first chapter and we could not stop reading it until the end. We loved the story so much we read it in only a couple of days. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen next.

Cherish loves dolphins so much that her family takes care of them. She wants to be just like her parents. Cherish is scared when a virus starts to infect the ocean life she knows. She doesn’t know what to do and her family steps in to help. Will the virus spread into the whole ocean or will they be able to stop the virus before it spreads?

Shadows of Doubt is the second book in the Crawford Mystery series by Merissa Racine. This is my first read by this author and I read the series out of order. Personally, I think they can be read as a stand alone but recommend reading them in order.
Lauren Besoner is a court reporter, in serious need of some money. So she agrees to take a job for her ex-husband. In this case, a young pizza delivery driver is accused of murdering an elderly lady.
Lauren doesn’t buy it, and started seeing a few inconsistencies. But is she willing to loose her job to speak up? Will she be able to prove this young man’s innocence before it’s too late?
This story is a suspenseful mystery, that will keep you guessing. Not everything is as it seems.

5/5 Stars

Kingdom of Embers: Extended Finale (Kingdom Journals #1) by Tricia Copeland

Not the first read by Copeland. Kingdom of Embers is a great start of a new series. Alena and Chase are amazing and I can’t wait for the next book.

Alena is a hybrid and isn’t sure what exactly she’s supposed to be doing. She goes to school with the humans and isn’t allowed to mingle with others. She sees someone who she thinks is an imaginary friend she made up in her mind. The quote I chose for Alena is: “Does she remember what it’s like to be a teenager? Can I get a replacement for her? Or at least a refund?”

Chase sees Alena and waits until the next time he sees her. He asks the hardest question about Ivy. They start hanging out but her mom doesn’t know. The quote I chose for Chase is: “Do you think about her often? I hadn’t thought about you since kindergarten. Mom said I cried for weeks.”

Highly recommended for YA Fantasy lovers.

Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine is a great installment to this series. While the first book was incredible and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time Racine does a even better job in book two. The mystery and the hunt for justice makes Ms. Racine’s writing and plot very compelling. Full of suspense, mystery, and so much more I once again found myself unable to put the book down. While Lauren is in an interesting case, when she goes digging for clues will she be prepared for what she finds? I mean everyone has some skeletons in their closet right? But will Lauren be able to handle the secrets she uncovers? You’ll have to read Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery) by Merissa Racine to find out for yourself.

This is not my typical genre when it comes to books, but K.G. Fletcher delivered an amazing book! It took a little while for me to get into the book, but when I did, I couldn’t put it down. I was intrigued by the love and connection that spans life, time, and death. Fletcher does a great job of describing the main characters, Kat and Phillip, as well as the setting for their story, Whitley, Georgia. I have not read any of K.G. Fletcher’s other novels but can’t wait to read more, especially the second book of this series. This is a great read for fans of pure, clean romance, no toxicity, no violence, just pure connection.

Kingdom of Embers (Kingdom Journals Book 1) by Tricia Copeland is one of the best books I have read this year. Once again Copeland gives us phenomenal characters, a terrific plot, and so many other intricate details that she’ll pull you in with one chapter and you’ll be at the end before you know it. Filled with witches, magical abilities and so much more, Copeland pulls us into a magical world once again. While Copland introduces us to several unique characters she brings out primary focus on seventeen year old Alena who is tired of following all of the strict rules and pretending to be someone she’s not. But when Alena starts to uncover the mysteries that she’s been questioning for years will she be able to handle the answers? Will she and her friend be able to undo what’s been done before it’s to late? You’ll have to read Kingdom of Embers (Kingdom Journals Book 1) by Tricia Copeland for yourself to find out.

It’s not my usual genre, but I really enjoyed this book! I always love when an author is able to bring something new to a subject that has been written about many times. This book goes beyond the classic things you’ve read about vampires before. This was a quick and easy read, but very attention grabbing at the same time. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Being the second in this series, I couldnt wait to see how this story played out. And I must say I enjoyed this one more the first one and thats saying something!

We follow Lauren again, a few months after the first book ends. She is freelancing and is filling in at her ex’s office with the court also.
We get to see many sides of different characters as they are all part of different legal issues in this one and I loved thinking the worst of one person and being blindsided by who it was for real.

I was really hooked by this story I wanted to keep turning pages when I was done. I really hope we get another book, as i not only find myself lost in the pages of these books but I also like the small budding romance we see happening.

I really enjoyed this book a lot. I love vampire lore and this book had some different mythological aspects to it. Brining in the significance of the solstice as well as a trinity of players was a really interesting touch. I really liked the fiesty creature that Alena is and how she searching for answers to the questions she is not yet privy to have resolution for. I like her relationship with Hunter and really thought the twist at the end was good. I would love to dive more into her story, her relationship with her mother and what’s to come in the next 6 months as she prepares to turn 18. I would definitely read more by this author.

I enjoy novels about vampires and witches, so Tricia Copeland’s novel Kingdom of Embers hit the mark for me. Because vampire lore and stories have been around for years, it is always exciting to be introduced to a new take on that lore. Tricia Copeland has created a vibrant world and a really intriguing story. Alena’s story has adventure and was exciting to read. I look forward to reading the next chapter of this series.

Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection #3) by Nikki Lynn Barrett. This is the 3rd book in the Soul Connection series and I have loved every one of them. I highly recommend reading the 1st two to learn who people are and to understand all that’s going on. This is Scott and Zelda’s story who we met in book 1. Scott was shot and almost died and can now see Ghosts as well as Zelda. Zelda is having trouble dealing with the fact that Scott is away chasing ghosts more than he’s home and with them having a young daughter and Zelda now being pregnant again she needs him home now more than ever. Communicating with these ghosts all the time is so consuming mentally and physically. When Scott has to make a life or death choice for Zelda things change for both of them. This is such a good paranormal romance. Will Zelda and Scott continue this life full of chasing ghosts or will they decide its taking too much from their real life. This book will keep you turning the pages all thru the night!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am a big fan of KG Fletcher, so I did not even read the description to this book before I started reading it. At first I was a little confused as to what was happening, and thrown off. Most of her books are a love story through and through, and this didn’t have that feel in the beginning. That soon changed, and it was a cute story! Both Kat and Phillip’s characters are loveable. Fletcher did a good job describing the 1940s, allowing me to envision the era- the way he dressed, the emergence of movies, the cars, etc. Time travel always throws me off, and confuses me. This book was well written though, and it while it jumped back and forth, it was clear which era we were reading about. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series, and am so glad the release dates are only a month or two apart, not years! Overall a very sweet romance story (with one steamy chapter), and anxiously awaiting Love’s Reverie.

Wow! Words are failing me at this moment to describe how intense this book was. It grabbed ahold of me and dragged me down between its covers and didn’t let go until I had absorbed every LAST WORD! I had no idea this was a series, so guess what my next week looks like? Yep I am getting all five of the previous boos and reading!
Via Mari drops you into the seedy underbelly of sex trafficking and hotter than hell Nick is right there to be the sexy smooth protector that Allie needs. This novel had it all … mystery, intrigue, adventure, a sexy sizzle and a plot thicker than beef stew. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and suspect I will enjoy the rest of her books! Can’t wait to dive in to this series from book one!

Another amazing book. I liked how this one was more in the court room and what she listens too and hears and dose. Merissa Racine so knowable about what happens in the court room that it makes you really feel like you’re really sitting there. The way Lauren gets into every situation really has you on your seat wondering what is going to happen. I couldn’t put this book down just like the first one. It was very enjoyable, and I can’t wait for if there will be another one. Also, if you haven’t read the first one that’s ok you can still read this one and understand the plot and everything that goes on without knowing what happened in the first book. Recommend and enjoyed this book very much.

Ahhh book 2 in this series and it was such a great read. I loved the suspense and mystery of this story and I recommend reading book 1 first before diving into book 2. Lauren, who is a court reporter, is in need of money and decides to work for her ex husband, who is the new judge. Lauren has this instinct that the person who is on trial for the murder she is working on, may not be guilty. You get the sense that not everything is what is seems. There are motives and Lauren is trying to solve this case on her own. Author Merissa Racine really can get a reader pulled into the story on a who done it suspense thriller. I really enjoyed this book it was truly fantastic!

Another great book in this series. The problems that arise and how Lucy is able to figure it out and solve is so amazing. Lucy a very smart strong welled girl that doesn’t let anything or anyone stand in her way. I love how Lucy can work thou a problem and figure out how to solve it. This book was filled with demons, backstabbing, butyral, and heart ache. But it also is filled with love from her uncles and friends, good ending, friendship, compassion, and understanding. These books feel so much like your back in high school, the way everyone is, friendships, relationships and how things will work out. How Lucy needs to learn to control herself without having to tell anyone what she can do and what she is, you can almost feel the pain that if she does if she would loss everything, but when it does her friends are so helpful and understanding that this friendship will be strong to come. I really hope there will be more to this series and the problems and fun that Lucy will bring in her next adventures.
