I genuinely enjoyed this book! Its the third in the authors Mafia Elite series, and although I have not read the first two books in the series I was not lost and this book can easily be read alone! I really enjoyed Emiliana and Stefano’s story. It was action packed and full of romance! I also loved reading about the relationship between Emiliana and her friends! I will be picking up the first two books now and cannot wait to read the rest of the authors series!

This book has it all- suspense, mystery, a comeback tale, and a hint of romance. The lead character is imperfect- she struggles to clean up her profanity-laced vocabulary (who hasn’t struggled with this at some point?) She is going through a divorce. She is an attorney who is picking up both her professional life and her personal life from the bottom of a garbage heap, sifting through some hard truths, and striving to not merely survive, but to live in every sense of the word. Ultimately, she risks her life, and her sanity for an innocent client. I enjoyed the humanity of the protagonist.

The Heart of a Hussar is a very well-written and engaging historical fiction. The characters are well-written and engaging and the action sequences are amazing. There is plenty of growth and character development. The author does a great job of putting you in the character’s shoes so that you experience all of the love, frustration, anger, sadness, and excitement that they feel. There were parts that actually reduced me to tears. I would have loved a little more interaction between the lead couple after the first quarter of the book but all in all, I enjoyed the book immensely. There is a second book in the series that I will certainly be picking up. I cannot wait to read the continuation of Oliwia and Jacek’s journey.

The Heart of a Hussar is book 1 in the Winged Warrior Series. The story centers around a young soldier named Jacek Dabrowski in 1610 Muscovy. Twenty-two-year-old Jacek has recently been promoted to Lieutenant of his cavalry, and he is hoping his new position will help him to secure the land he desires. In his journeys Jacek stumbles onto two young orphans, 15-year-old Oliwia and her young brother, and he decides to rescue them. His rescue of the two orphans sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of Jacek’s life.
I loved this historical fiction book and became immersed in the era so completely that I felt as though I was right there with the characters. The author clearly did a lot of research about that era, and it shows in the details of her writing. The characters of both Jacek and Oliwia were wonderful and there were so many facets to who they were and their relationship with one another. I became immersed in their story and enjoyed watching them grow as characters through all the trials and tribulations that they were subjected to.
I have been researching my family tree and have managed to trace many of my ancestors back to the 1600’s so this book made me feel as though I was in that era. It helped me better understand that time and gave me a sense of what some of my ancestors’ lives may have been like and how they may have possibly lived. The historical data included in the end of the book will be a valuable tool in my farther research. Thank you so much for including it! I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in historical fiction!

Intriguing and compelling A very unexpected find and the first book I have read by this author. I absolutely loved it. The characters were well developed and the concept was fascinating. A sci-fi romance thriller, I was glued to each page. The writing while descriptive, allows for the reader to make the connections. There are a lot of emotions involved which tugged a bit at my heartstrings. An excellent series starter that left me wanting more.

Frelick – Review by Rayne East
This extremely well written and highly entertaining historical novel set in the 1600s definitely sticks true to the saying that no path to true love runs smooth. Both of the main characters, Jacek and Oliwia, who I love, experience many ups and downs along their journey and you feel them all right along with them. I for one can’t wait for the second book too see what awaits us!

I can’t believe this is the author’s first novel. It definitely doesn’t read like a debut novel. The story is beautifully executed, building well while still being fast paced. I loved how the main character wasn’t the typical perfect character. She was down on her luck, flawed, and relatable. I look forward to reading anything else this author writes!

The Heart of A Hussar Book 1 of 2 Griffin Brady Review by Susan Ratchford 4 Stars
Focusing on 22 year old Jacek, one of the best warriors of the winged Hussars, a feared and deadly Polish cavalry. Jacek dedicates his life to the sword and shy’s away from anything that will distract him from getting the king’s recognition and the glory that comes with it. Stumbling upon a bloody raid Jacek forsakes his stoic personality and saves Two Muscovy siblings,Oliwia a 15 year old girl and her younger brother of 6 Filip. Their parents and village slaughtered and with no known family, they have nowhere else to go than with these men who consider their people enemies…. A wonderful work of historical fiction that was really well researched. I really love how detailed this book was. The battle scenes were so vivid I could picture everything so clearly in my mind. I found myself drifting into the 17th century and feeling what it would be like to live in that time. I also loved the development of the characters and their relationships through to the end. A great choice for a date with a book!

Finally, I feel like I have waited my entire life to read this book. We have the original story of vampire verse lycan with a huge twist. There is another threat out there that can destroy everything near and dear. We continue the love story of wolf and vampire with Levi and Tasha….. And their child. I didn’t see that coming. This book is the absolute icing on the series. This is a breath-taking finale. The author managed to encase the lies, magic and love all into this story. I want more surprisingly. This was the best book of the three. I love Levi I have from the very beginning. I am giving this book all the stars. Read this series from the beginning and you will not be disappointed. Genius.

I am still not accepting this book is finished. Grace is such a great character, her back story to her current one go so well. Not that I’d wish it on anyone. It was really hard to put down. Fingers are all crossed that this is a good long series!

I cannot believe States of Grace is a debut novel! The complexity of the main character, Grace Locke, is multi-layered but relatable and I rooted for her from page one. The author writes as if she is well-seasoned with multiple best-selling novels under her proverbial belt. I flew through this book, hungry for the next installment of the Grace Locke Mystery Series. The story is filled with twists and turns that Grace must navigate to not only try and prove the innocence of her high-profile client but save her career. I cannot recommend this book and author enough and am looking forward to snatching up her next works as soon as they’re available!

This book was so perfect, and beautifully done it is incredibly hard for me to believe that it’s the authors first novel. I was originally drawn to this novel by its cover and the blurb on the back. But once I started the novel I couldn’t put it down. The authors writing flows just as beautifully as the plot. This book has everything you could want in a lawyering thriller filled with mystery, murder, lawyers, the Florida state bar and so much more. The plot flowed so beautifully that the pages just flew by and I couldn’t put it down. Grace’s character really spoke to me, even though she’s been knocked down several times she just gets back up and fights even harder. She’s really a character that you can get behind. But in the long run this story was so perfect that I can’t wait for the next book from this author.

Grace is at the last straw with life and her career, with a pretty big addiction can she help herself and also help the young girl she has just taken on as a client.
Grace is at a low point in her life, just been released from jail and needing to raise some money to survive she is more comfortable prosecuting the innocent not the perceived guilty, but as she works through the case. Grace starts to investigate and finds stuff that is wrong and she is starting thinking maybe there is more to this case than first thought.
I really enjoyed this story, this is the first book I have read by this author and it was thrilling and it grips you. I loved the way the book weaves through the clues and you piece together with Grace to find if her client is really guilty.
The characters are well developed and I loved the fact that Grace is a little flawed, being an army vet with a disability was brilliant to read, the interactions with the secondary characters are great and enhances the story.
I can’t wait to read more books by this author in the future.

Rebecca Steele Living the Dream is the third and final book in The Rebecca Steele series by Joanne Patterson. This is a sweet western romance- full of emotion, challenges, family, and dramatic developments. This book follows on from the previous two, and as such, I highly recommend reading the other books before starting on this one as the previous books contain important character information, back story, and other relevant details that will help you to better appreciate this story, as well as the series, as a whole. I have enjoyed this series, so finding this book is the final instalment made it a bit of bittersweet experience. Finding out how Rebecca’s story concludes was a bit of an emotional ride- the author didn’t make things easy for her- she was tested with new challenges that impacted everything she held dear. What happens makes for an emotional, angsty, and yet heartwarming read. Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Patterson does next. Happy reading!

This was a sweet culmination to a series I have really come to love and enjoy from the very beginning. Rebecca has really come a long way from the first book to this one where we see her finding her way in the world as a new mom and wife to the love of her life. She doesn’t have the easiest path laid out for her though and will need to navigate some forks in the road as well as some growing pains. I loved following along through it all and only wish there was more to come. I am anxious to see what will come next though, whatever that may be. I will for sure be here for any of it!

Grace Locke is a woman with an interesting past and an uncertain future, she is an Army veteran who served in some of the most harsh environments out there until an IED went off beneath the vehicle she was travelling in and meant she lost her leg. That was a pivotal moment in her life, like others before then, but it was a pivot that started a downward turns of events including addiction, an arrest and nearly losing her license to practice Law, but despite all of these challenges while also living in a motel and going through a divorce, Grace is tough and does what she needs to, to get herself out of the hole she has made for herself through her indiscretions.
After she has successfully finished defending another guilty party, Grace despises what she has to do to get by, but has no other choice at this very moment in time, until she sees some breaking news in the bar she frequents while she is drinking her espresso and coke mix. It is a high profile murder case where the accused is a young girl from a rich family and she realises that the mother of said girl is the very same woman who is the reason she is going through a divorce. Grace decides to pull a couple off strings she may regret so that she can be the one to defend this girl and hopefully get enough money to move up in the world again, or at least not have to live of ramen all the time.
As Grace succeeds in getting onto the case, she starts to think that maybe she has gotten in a little bit over her head as the evidence against her client continues to pile up, but the accused are always guilty aren’t they? In this case, it is the opposite and as Grace starts to dig deeper to prove her client’s innocence, she discovers that the victim was not all that they were shown to be and that they were involved in the dark side of a underground pill mill system, one that Grace is all too familiar with, but will Grace be able to gather the evidence she needs to prove her client’s innocence in time, or will the police remain one step ahead and garner the conviction they so desperately seek? This is a thrilling mystery which will keep you guessing as you follow the case along amid misdirection, secrets, revelations, grudges and guilt where nothing is as it seems and everything is on the line.

Even though this is the third book in the series it’s the first book I have read in this series. The characters are well written and amazing strong willed with little quirks that make them feel real.
Master Trentino finds Angel the sister of their mortal enemy lying in a pool of human blood, and damn the consequences, takes matters into his own hands. He needs to turn Angel a psychic to save her life.
Angel has been taught to despise and fear the dark fanged dwellers of the underworld but there is just something about Trentino that just pulls her to him.
The masters need to move quickly and learn who has betrayed them or will it be too late? Can Angel overcome her demons and fight by Trentino’s side or fight against him? Can they overcome the betrayals and move forward? This is a great book… Tracy @tracym

Very Impressed with this book! The last two were ok but this one the author knocked it out of the park! I love all the action and drama in the story. This one grabbed me from page one and I was hooked til the end.
In here Trentino is the Master but Angel is the star! Her character really grows as she is pulled from her old life and thrust into her new one. I really enjoyed all her time with the “girls” and how confident she becomes.
We get to see a lot of the other two Masters we have met in previous books. I like how they all hang out and help each other to further their kind. I love their fondness and protectiveness of their mates.
Overall I throughly enjoyed this story! Its the third in the series and to get full enjoyment and understanding I would suggest reading them in order. I eagerly look forward to the next!

The brilliance continues. The second book of the series is dedicated to Tuscano and Delilah. It takes off immediately after the events of book 1. Highly recommend reading book 1 first as it will help to know the motivation behind the events in this book. The author’s writing is on point – fantastic world building and wonderful characters. The book has it all – vampires, werewolves, witches, action and romance. A series that has me hooked. Bring me book 3 now!

Vampire mafia This is just pure brilliance. I have been in a bit of a book slump and this comes along and blows my mind. Love the world the author creates with vampires living alongside humans. I fell in love with Salvatore and Luce quickly grew on me. The story just builds from the start with threats to the vampire society, special powers, thrilling action and there is no time to take a breath. Ugh – and then it ended – I am already seeking out book 2.

5 Stars Forbidden Moon (The Shadow Chronicles Book 3) by CR Robertson
Forbidden Moon is the third book in The Shadow Chronicles it’sa Paranormal Romance that I absolutely loved reading. This picks up where the last book left off and I highly recommend reading the first two books if you haven’t already started them. Reading this in order will give you a better understanding of what is going on and you get to know the characters better. Whew this is a fast paced story packed with action, magic mystery and suspense. This story I couldn’t wait to dive in and once I started there was no putting it down. This author is one of my favorites and this series is on the top of t my re-read list for sure. Get ready to be taken on quite the adventure with Tasha and Levi as they fight a threat they didn’t know existed. They have along the way made allie and some enemies but can they uncover the true species before its to late? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t recommend this author or this series enough. I can’t wait to see what this author brings us next.

Somehow I started on book two so I will need to go back and read the first to learn more about Emma and some of the events that are talked about throughout book two! Even not reading the first book, I have been able to easily follow the story and the characters. Emma is a teen detective who graduated from business school and has been working with local companies to find women jobs. She also solves crimes that arise and that are brought to her. I love Emma and the group of friends and family that she is surrounded by. I liked the idea of growing up in a boarding house and like getting to know the characters that were part of the day to day. The crimes don’t seem ridiculous for a teen and even though some are dangerous, Emma always walks though the steps so she knows how to get to the bottom of them. The story is set in the 1800’s, but it doesn’t feel out of date even though Emma rides her bike everywhere which is also a fun element. What I loved most about the book was how the author portrayed this young girl as so strong, independent, and capable of anything she put her mind to – a great way to show a strong young woman protagonist!
This is an awesome debut for this author and I can’t wait to read more from her. I loved this book. The author has a way of bringing the characters to life and making them seem so real. The story flows nicely and at a great pace. If you like legal thrillers you will love this book. I can’t wait to see what’s next for Grace.

From page one this author really found a unique way to draw you into the story. It set a kind of precedent for the two main characters that had me completely hooked. The storyline is one that contains everything you need in a good rocker romance. The characters each are complex and relatable, they draw you in for some many different reasons each different in their own right. This author took me on a ride with this story and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better story. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. Five big stars and highly recommended!

This is such a fascinating historical fiction read. I was intrigued from the very beginning and enjoyed learning more about Poland and their struggles in the 17th century. The characters drew me in and had me rooting for them from the get-go. I enjoy reading books where there are twists that don’t line up with what I think is going to happen. And this book did not disappoint in that aspect. In fact, I was left a little heartbroken at the end of this book and will have to read book 2 to see how it all ends!

I picked this novel up after I had already read a couple of similar novels by other authors and was very intrigued to see the difference between their writing styles and this author. I can certainly say I was very pleased to find that the one of the main characters, being Jared, isn’t your typical ‘perfect’ male lead, rather, we’re introduced to his speech impediment quickly. It’s not very often you pick up a romance novel that includes someone that is less than perfect in the simplest of ways. Despite this, he is every bit as swoon worthy, with this my father comes first mentality. It was only right that he met someone that felt the same way. Madison is his father’s nurse, and is fully committed to the well-being of Mr. Christopher, putting him first despite what the consequences. This novel was heartwarming, tear-jerking, the losses and gains throughout created this enthralling read.
I adore the way this author brings the reader into their world, I personally felt as though I was walking the halls with Jared as he went to visit his father the first time since Madison or “Cookie” had started working, and felt the emotional turmoil that goes along with such. You feel connected to not only the two main characters, but Jared’s band mates, and as we come to feel the intensity of their friendships, they’re not only friends, but family as well. Overall, the character building, the story that unfolds, and the emotions that swirl off the pages are simply addicting. I very much look forward to reading the rest of the novels in this series. I’ll be back!

This is the first YA book I have read since I began teaching high school. It is awesome! The characters completely resonate with high school students and their turbulent emotions. I found the flow of the story to be believable. Completely engrossed in the novel, I enjoyed a cathartic sob session. A character that I found to be reprehensible redeemed himself throughout the telling, and I found myself rooting for him in the end, and I am reminded that people grow and change over time.

This is book three in this great series and I have read a few books written by this author and she hasn’t disappointed me yet. The characters are strong they have to be in their world. I love the little quirks and the way they play off each other makes them somewhat real. This book had it all action, tension, betrayal, romance. Stefano Rossi the next Mafia Boss and Emiliana Vitale Mafia princess fell in love but they need to keep it a secret especially from Stefanos ruthless father. They meet in secret even if it’s for a few stolen moments. Their relationship is full of risk and danger but, Stefano has a plan especially now that he knows there’s a rat in the organization. Emiliana has clawed her way through hell and back from a vicious attack initiated by a rat within the Five Families, she is a changed woman, and the darkness in her matches Stefano’s. She is ready to expose the rat and move forward with her life besides Stefano. Can these two unmask the rat? Will Emiliana get her revenge? Can these two overcome their worlds to have a happily ever after? You will need to read this book to find out. Tracy @tracym

Absolutely amazing. The author did it again. I was hooked from the very beginning. I love the way the characters flow together. It’s like they are one. This was a great way to continue the series. I couldn’t put it down and finished it in a day.

Forbidden Moon (The Shadow Chronicles Book 3) by C.R Robertson 5 Stars
Oh my god! What an amazing ending to an exciting series. This book has it all; vampires, werewolves, demons, danger and fated mates. What more could you want? The story was so engrossing, I felt like I couldn’t read fast enough. This has to be my favourite of the three. The plot thickens and danger is around every corner. This book has me on the edge of my seat, holding my breath.
The author has created an incredible world. With a few tweaks to the usual traits of vampires and werewolves, the author has created a unique new version. I’m so happy that I have read this series. Do yourself a favour and set aside some time and read it for yourself. You won’t regret it.
