Born in Darkness (Mafia Elite Book 3) by Amy McKinley

I’m literally speechless. I don’t even know where to begin with my review for this wonderfully written story. I’ve been a fan of this author since the very first book I read of hers. With every new book and even every new series I become an even bigger fan. This one is by far my favorite yet. I freaking loved everything about this book. If you haven’t started this series or of she’s a new to you author go grab the first book in this series and I guarantee by the end you’ll also be a fan. I’ve been patiently waiting for this book and holy cow it didn’t disappoint that’s for sure. This story is packed with all things that make up a fantastic mafia romance. There’s lots of secrets, action, throw in a bit of drama and some violence plus so much more. I was at times on the edge of my seat trying to figure everything out. Whew, this is Stefano and Emiliana’s story. He’s biding his time till he’s king and wants her to be by his side. She wants the one man she fell in love with but she can’t have him. Oh these two are off the charts. What will happen when their relationship not only grows but attracts more enemies? Is he enough to keep her safe ? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait for the next book in this series . I also recommend reading the first two books in this series if you haven’t already.

While this book was not one of my favorites it did keep me guessing an wanting to read more. It is a good mystery suspense. I loved the characters Neve, Con an Rosanna. I think they were perfect. It takes place in a mental hospital an Neve is returning to work after being attacked. But when returning she is faced with yet another mystery that involes her an mental health patients. Is she really ready for all of this again?

Diabolical Sword (The Charm Collector Book 1) by Melissa Erin Jackson – Review by Vanessa Watts

Diabolical SwordDiabolical Sword by Melissa Erin Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first time I have heard of this author but I love all things magical and decided to give this urban fantasy a try. I am really glad I did though because this book was phenomenal. The character development was wonderful including the sentient sword that the author was able to describe and make the sword come to life in such a way. The world building was fantastic and made it seem as though anyone could visit Luma.

We start off meeting Harlow, your typical human living amongst magical creatures just trying to get by. After losing her parents she uses her dad’s tools of his trade to find her own albeit illegal enterprise in order to survive. She becomes a charm collector which entails showing up after notorious magical artifact collectors are apprehended to loot their stash of magical artifacts and sell them to her own list of clientele. This score was the one she had been waiting for and everything goes smoothly until she follows a hutch and takes the dragon sword. From there her life goes haywire as this sentient sword has a mind of its own and has taken a shine to Harlow. One day it simply vanishes from her apartment and Harlow counts her lucky stars until she is accused of murder and the sword once again finds its way into her possession covered in blood. Now she is on the run and must prove her innocence before she ends up behind bars for a murder she did not commit. This book has it all: action, adventure, plus a good mystery to boot. I would encourage everyone to take a chance on this book, I just know you’ll become hooked just like I was!

The Web of Humanity by Maria Turchin – Review by Susan Ratchford

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amazing! The Web of Humanity grabs you and it wont let go! After her grandfather enlists her help, Anna Venue must go in search of answers to a family secret leading back to the final days of WW2. Traveling to Vienna, Paris, and Berlin every discovery leads to more questions and she finds herself amidst a political conspiracy.
This book was gripping! I love the historical accuracy of the book, it makes you think. It makes you question the psychological aspect of violence, war, and racism.. I also like how Maria Turchin shows the consequences of war through the eyes of someone still being affected by it generations later, it makes you realize that “history” wasn’t that long ago. It gives you a new perspective on what you were taught. It’s the kind of book that still affects you days after you finish it! I highly recommend reading it!

This book really brought on the intrigue, and was a great joy to read! I had a lot of fun from the engagement of the characters. It kept me interested and was a smooth read from start to finish. I had not read the previous books, but now I know I will be doing just that! This was a delightful read! I m very happy I got to enjoy this wonderful book!

I really loved how this book really brought the hands of destiny to the table. You can not avoid what is really meant to be or what is meant to happen! In this case a meet based upon fate was what was unavoidable. You can only prolong a encounter for so long, Delta and Jax quickly learned this from my point of view. They both were strong independent characters who could stand their ground very well and I really enjoyed reading about them and how they handled themselves as well as situations!

The story and events that happened were wonderfully and visually done. The author knew exactly what they were doing as they planned this story and book, I loved it truly and had a great joy as I read through. There were surprises and cute moments as well! Wonderful read, very much loved this book!

The book and its writing was pleasant and unique. Things did not go the way I expected as I read on through, but I very much enjoyed the adventure of its self! I will be sure reading the prior books and see what adventures I shall enjoy in them! Wonderful read and highly recommend this book and author!

The Unholy by Paul DeBlassie III – Review by Lorrene Huisman

The UnholyThe Unholy by Paul DeBlassie III
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This novel to say the least is amazing, full of knowledge and you can tell the author put a lot of work into writing this well structured novel. I was very impressed as well as engaged. I felt it would be a crime to turn away as I read through this book! I was very happy that I got to read this, as well as a bit enlightened!

I loved how Claire was written, she had a good soul and a good heart doing what she did and loved, which was helping people in the ways of medicine. You throw in Anarch who is on a deep quest for power and goes for everything Claire is against, and you have the true battle of evil and good. Where would the line be drawn and where would people or things stand in the end? I enjoyed the religious aspect of this book, with the knowledge and education this novel bad given to me. I was a bit enlightened and became more familiar with things outside my roots or what I believed I knew of such things.

Claire to me was more than strong, but she was truthful to who she was and what she was. Anarch was made to be exactly who he was, corrupted by power, and this is something that had to be stopped and Claire knew what she had to face, no matter what sacrifice or what ordeals she was to face. I swear she had an Angel over her shoulder, she endured a lot and was a remarkable character. Anarch was very evil yes, he was the type of character I would never want to cross paths with, to read how evil he really was, makes me fear who exists out there that is perhaps similar to him. The writing of this novel was outstanding and gripping. I loved it and enjoyed as said, the religious aspects and knowledge included.

To me this was a very intelligent book with the type of fear and horror only a book that was as real as this was that can send straight into your heart. It was very realistic and full of knowledge, I highly enjoyed this read and I feel this is a must read for sure. It was very well done. Yes, I truly know the author put their heart and soul with information an the knowledge they gave they wrote it! Amazing read!

Practically Pagan – An Alternative Guide to Magical Living by Maria DeBlassie – Review by S. Bittles

Practically Pagan - An Alternative Guide to Magical LivingPractically Pagan – An Alternative Guide to Magical Living by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book focuses on the magic in the everyday; meaning your actions and reactions to others, as well as how you control your state of mind and thoughts.

As a society we have lost touch in what it means to practice self-care, it is not just a hot bath or a long walk; it is focusing and figuring out your true self and changing state of mind on your own. The notions of centering your mind and reconnecting with your soul are lost in this era social media, as an audience is always there for every experience and sharing every time self-care is accomplished.

The intro to the book says that no matter how this book has entered your life, it is a sign and meant to be. Man, is it ever a sign! I highly recommend this book for anyone who can read, especially with all the constant changes and uncertainty the pandemic has brought into our lives.

Priscida Finds Greatness: In Herself and in OthersPriscida Finds Greatness: In Herself and in Others by Constance Mays
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

GREATNESS isn’t that a beautiful word? That is what you will find in this children’s story. A way to teach children and those around us, where to find their GREATNESS. To look for the small acts of kindness. Priscida is a plain Ole alley cat, scrounging around for food, going from dumpster to dumpster. Until the day the pound caught her. You would think a name like Priscida is loyalty, but in fact it is the name given to her by the workers at the shelter. A Classy Chassie fits Priscida. The author of this book has pets and children in mind. I love that she shares with her readers ways to read this book to their children. She encourages voice changes as well as facial expressions, to help children to get a better understanding of those feelings. Priscida is trying to teach us, We Are Greatness. This was a true feels book. I enjoyed reading it too.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So sweet and perfect for this time of year!
Amber is not a fan of the holiday season, she lets her workers do the bare minimum in her bar as far as decorations and her house is the only one on the block without any as well. She doesn’t care for it and is ready to end the year with a big bash to celebrate at her bar. Gio on the other hand is excited to take over his Nonna’s business so she can retire. He soon finds himself wanting to get to know more about this spit fire of a bar owner and why she doesn’t like Christmas. Will Amber let her guard down to Gio and share her secret? Can she put it all aside and start over with this beautiful family that came crashing into her life?
I fell in love with this little town so much. Cold creek just sounds beautiful and I would most certainly be on my way there if I could! I highly recommend this to anyone who loves a sweet and steamy Christmas story full of romance, cute family moments and overcoming your past for a better future!

The Crown of Stones: Magic-Price by C. L. Schneider – Review by Dani Dando

Magic-Price (The Crown of Stones, #1)Magic-Price by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This fantasy had a darkness to it that I just adored. A tale all about addiction, hate, pain and how sometimes the right thing does not always look wonderful.
Ian Troy is a Shinree magic-user who happened to be on really good terms with the Warrior Queen who led the Rellan Army. His views on the way the war should be fought differs somewhat t hers and in order to bring piece he wields an old relic that, while it does the job he intended, comes at a pretty hefty price. Years later and Ian is still reeling and still trying to run away from everything that he is.
Honestly, I loved this, its so dark and grim and has an edge to it that is enthralling. The world-building is impressive and leads to something utterly magical. Would definitely recommend this book and look forward to reading more of the series. Schneider is an incredibly talented author.

The Web of Humanity: A NovelThe Web of Humanity: A Novel by Maria Turchin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As a person who loves solving puzzles and learning about the stories of ancestors, The Web of Humanity was a great choice. The story is one of many themes involving love, friendship, hardship through war, coincidences, and family. It’s a journey about a woman named Anna who becomes interested in her grandmother’s hidden past. Right before her grandmother dies, she gives Anna just a tiny glimpse of the past events that she endured. This glimpse sends Anna’s curiosity sky high, and she begins a journey to find out the whole truth behind her grandmother’s hidden past. While this was a long journey, when reading, it provided inspiration of wonder and full circle moments, and really making you think about what all the connections and events in one’s life really could mean.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

  • I just loved this book. It is a story about two friends who have secretly loved each other over the last decade or so. One of these friends is a rock and roll princess and the other a newly famous member of a rock and roll band. They never let their friendship become more due to the past both of them hold. However, times are changing and both of them feel it is also time for a change, but what does that mean for their friendship? The reason I loved this story so much is for the realistic aspect it held in the sequence of events. There are ups, downs, tragedies, etc. Some time in our life we have all had to make a decision on whether friendship is worth it, worth it to be more, and what it would look like if all went wrong. I enjoyed the characters, their banter, their friendship, and the love they possess while supporting each other’s dreams. The way they carried themselves through the love story is a good lesson for all – support each other’s dreams, lift each other up, and be patient.View all my reviews

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read the previous two books in the Mafia Elite series but Born in Darkness has been my favorite storyline thus far. I really enjoyed how the main characters of Stefano and Emiliana intertwined from childhood into adulthood. Stefano has been Emiliana’s savior for such a long time, it’s no wonder they are bound to each other in unexplainable ways. This book also answered some questions that were lingering from the previous ones all while keeping us in suspense on other questions that continue to arise. This book just draws you in and doesn’t let go and leads you wanting more of the mafia families. Thankfully, this series is not complete yet and I will get more to the characters stories.

This is the first-ever book I have picked up by this author but she did such an amazing job hooking me in from the first page. I felt like she was writing this book about me LOL. I was able to relate so much to Amber and her displeasure at Christmas time. There are so many details that the author used that I felt like I was reading about my own life. Amber, living in a small river town in the Hudson Valley of New York. I grew up and still live in a small river town in the Hudson Valley region of New York. The author just did an amazing job at being relatable to all the characters.
Amber is a Christmas season Grinch, who was abandoned by her parents. At the age of 18, she traveled through New York and settled in Cold Creek working in a pub. When the owner is set to retire, he sells the pub to Amber at a price she can’t turn down. After many years of being single Amber is finally accepting her single status when Giovanni enters the small town. The grandson of the beloved baker who is known as Mama to most of the town, there is an instant attraction between Amber and Gio. could this be the year Amber starts falling in love with Christmas? This is definitely a must-read book!!

They are connectable and truly made the story for me. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by Alyse and her story. She dies and is not happy about it. She finds herself in a town of dead souls but also finds herself lonely so she decides to throw a party. This is where her story picks up. She learns lessons about things that she didn’t when she was alive. This is a great story that I really enjoyed. It is engaging and fast paced. It has great growth throughout and the characters are creative. This is a great pick up and I highly recommend it.

The story is a supernatural shifter story and the second exciting book in this action-adventure series. You really need to read these books in order, or you are missing so much on the characters and the world the author has created. The writing and the word building are such that you can easily and vividly imagine the characters and their unique. The humour, the intrigue, the danger, and the action will keep you enthralled right to the end. The story takes you on a journey where not everything is as it seems.

This is one unusual story that is original and a lot different. I am unsure on the genre, is it a book with Christianity or is it a book about the supernatural? The author gives us a look into a town called Limbo and its inhabitants that seem to be stuck. It is a town that is only home to those of the ghost variety. We learn of their lives and deaths, their regrets and anger, their loves and loss, their sorrow and grief. But is only a small look at them. There was no real direction to the story, there is no moving on, no light to take them somewhere else. It is a story of the afterlife but where no one knows other than Limbo. Are they there because they were not good enough to go to the pearly gates or are they there because they are not worthy of the fiery after life of hell? Whilst the characters are entertaining there is just so much that is just unanswered.

Murder Off Route 82 is the third book in the Eve Sawyer Mystery Series by this author. I’m a huge fan of this author and her style of writing will pull you in from the beginning and have you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what is going to happen next. I highly recommend reading the first two books if you haven’t already, they will give you a better understanding of Eve and how she ended up where she’s at plus they are just as wonderful as this book is. I’m so thankful for stumbling upon this author, she never ceases to amaze me. This one finds Eve freshly off the beach crime and ready for her fall classes to start. But with her newfound fame she seems to have caught the attention of a mom who’s daughter is missing. Eve sets out to solve the mystery and soon finds out the boyfriend is missing as well. Can Eve solve the case and find them both before it becomes a homicide? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next.

As the third book in the mafia elite series this one quickly became a favorite. It’s action packed right from the start and there are so many twists and turns that when you figure everything out you’ll be as shell shocked as the characters are! While these all could be stand alone books following along with the characters through each one builds upon the storyline and allows you to understand the events happening and why they are happening. Plus each book has been amazing and I’m already anxiously awaiting the next one.

This book is Emiliana and Stefano’s story. Emiliana is trying to come to terms with her past abduction which just won’t quite leave her alone. While Stefano is doing his best to keep her safe especially from his father who threatens her often to keep Stefano in line. The bosses are working to uncover the rat while protecting their love ones. As new information is uncovered the path it leads to is unexpected. Can they uncover the rat while protecting their loved ones? What happens when the rat is very close to home? Can the mafia princesses make it out unscathed? This is a must read series that will have you on the edge of your seat. Can you uncover the rat before the mafia bosses can?

What a powerful read! I did not expect to enjoy this one as much as I did. I usually am lost with historical books, and have a hard time relating or keeping pace but decided to give it a shot based on the reviews and plot. Boy, am I glad I did! The author uses fictional characters paired with real events from WWII in a way that keeps you turning the pages. The story centers around a family secret and an amazing trek throughout Europe. The imagery and unexpected twists kept me engaged, as I was intrigued by the unique POV. This one is a great read for those who are interested in historical reading (even though it is fictional) and even those who are not as interested (like me), definitely give it a shot!
