Sashimi (Evil Sushi #2)Sashimi by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an author that I have loved reading from the first book I picked up. I never hesitate to pick up her books as I know what I am in for. One of the things I love about her books is her ability to pull me into the story with ease. Her writing style is such that it brings her books to a new level with each one that I pick up. This book is no different. This is the second book in the series which I enjoyed just as much if not more than the first. The characters are connectable and pulled me into the story from the beginning. They are creative, unique and I enjoyed how supportive of each other they are. They have great growth throughout the story as well. This is a story about finding a cure that could be impossible and making a huge choice that could affect everyone. You don’t want to miss what happens in this book. It is worth the pick up. I really enjoyed reading this book and what it brought to my afternoon. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Reunion in the Outback ( Welcome to Bunya Junction Book 4) by Nicole Flockton- Review By Heather Lopez Renteria

Reunion in the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, #4)Reunion in the Outback by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read this whole series of The Outback and love it. These books can be read as a standalone series if you don’t want to read the three books before. I love that Yolanda and Michael reconnect and have chemistry. Their marriage was in shambles that left them separated from each other than reunited in the outback of Bunya Junction. This book was emotional and with a splash of drama and marriage oops but also shows that love can overcome anything if you really try. I hope there will be another book in this series. It has became one of my favorites.

Ruthless Heir: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance (Mafia Elite, #5)Ruthless Heir: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Addictive series
Every single book in this series is just pure brilliance. I just love the whole mafia family. This book brings in Luc and Summer. Each has their baggage and must face the trials of their past. The action, drama and romance is off the charts. With old and new characters this book doesn’t miss a beat. I devoured every page and at the end I just wanted more. I recommend starting from book one as you will get a deeper understanding of the five families but each book can be read as a stand alone.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This book is from the series Welcome to Cupid’s Cove and it could be read as a stand alone. This is a perfect story if you want some sweet romance. These characters had me hooked to this story right from the beginning. It only took me a few hours to devour this book. I can’t wait to see what she will write next.

Nite Fire: Slash & Burn (Book 4) AUDIO BOOK by C.L. Schneider – Review by Bobbi Wagner

This is the fourth book in this series and it is just as great as the previous three.   I have enjoyed the audibles in this series and this book is no different.  The narrator pulled me in with the different types of tones of the characters.  They made it engaging and easy to listen to.  They pull you into the story from the beginning.   In this audible Dahlia is back in another  journey of non stop action. Things will never be the same again, things are changing and things are starting to happen that can’t be stopped. In search of truth, the things she finds only make her question more. Everything is pointing to the beginning of things.   An entertaining story that kept me coming back for more.  This is another great audible by this great author and I highly recommend it.

This story features Lenny (Iron) and Joy and their daughter Everly, but it also features Chains, Winnie and Jackson. I’m so glad everyone gets to have their point of view. As an MC club they all have their brothers back. With every book I read in this series, I get more involved with the characters. The boys are big strong bikers, and the women smooth out their rough edges but still have the strength to hold them together through the rough patches. This series is in the top five of all the books I have read this year. I’m really looking forward to reading the next in the series.

The connection these brothers have in the MC is very telling. Even though they are big bad bikers, they really have hearts of gold. Don’t get me wrong, they are still dangerous and take care of their own first and foremost. This story features Beast and Cathy and their son Ryder. I’ve said this before with this series, getting a glimpse of all the characters in the club in their own point of view is a big yes for me. Sometimes when you get multiple points of view the storylines get messy and hard to understand, but not this series. It just bring you closer to each of the characters. All of the books in this series have grabbed a piece of my heart, but this one is my favorite so far.

The imagination that goes into these stories is amazing. I love that in this series each book is based around one couple, but every one in or related to the club has a voice. This story is Bullet and Clementine’s. This book is a little shorter than the first but it is still packed with mystery and action. I read it in one sitting and was so enthralled. I just want to keep going with the series.

This author really knows how to tell a story. Francis (Stitch) is such an unusual character. I wasn’t sure were this story was going when I first started reading, but it blew me away by the time I reached the end. Francis and Grace are wonderful together, but Damien steal the story and my heart. This book is told from many different viewpoints and I really enjoyed getting everyone’s thoughts. This story is action packed from beginning to end. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kally and Clark have been best friends since they were children and their love for each other has only grown.
When Clark arrives to Kally’s eighteenth birthday party, he finds out just how out of reach she’s about to be.
To help protect her family, Kally has to do something she never thought she’d ever have to do. Can Clark save her from her fate or will he be too late?

This is written in multiple POV which is always a favorite of mine as it really gives you a well rounded story. While this is a little dark, it is a fast paced palate cleansing read. Looking forward to seeing where this one goes.

The Sound of MurderThe Sound of Murder by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

Very fun murder mystery. I kept thinking I knew who did it, but I was always proved wrong. Ruby seems like a sweet and talented woman, I am so glad she found a good friend in Nova and Sunshine. It seemed that she couldn’t catch a break with her being a witness to 2 dead bodies, and having a hard time making friends, but in this book she really blossomed from beginning to end. The story is easy to follow along with, and it was very unique and genius to me, how the characters were related and the way Ruby and Nova solve the murder without the cops. Watching them go out of their way to find their own evidence and sift through all the details is a treat to watch. The ending wrapped up nicely and I hope to see more of Rudy. This book can be read as a standalone, but I would recommend reading the prequel first, it would have been nice if I had known how Ruby met Sunshine and where she comes in. I can’t wait to see what comes next.

Shamrock & Clover: Field’s Apart by C.A. King – Review by Angela Hayes

Shamrock & Clover: Fields ApartShamrock & Clover: Fields Apart by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Shamrock & Clover: Fields Apart by C.A. King is a sweet, feel-good, emotional, and engaging romantic package that may be short in pages but packs the ‘reading experience’ of a much larger novel.
I have said this many times before and am likely to keep repeating it again many more times; I am a big fan of Ms. Kings work and have enjoyed all her stories immensely- so it was no great surprise that this book was a winning recipe for me as well. Shamrock & Clover has all the ingredients you could want from a contemporary romantic comedy about opposites attracting and finding love unexpectedly.
Clover has been unlucky in love, until she finds her Shamrock.
Happy reading!

Thank you, C.A. King!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story really drew me in from the beginning. Abbey is such a strong-willed and relatable character who I know would be a good friend to have. The descriptions of the clowns brought me back to 2016 with the hysteria of the scary clowns attacking people. The suspense kept me on the edge of my seat even as I couldn’t stop reading because I just had to know what came next. I adore the dynamic between the soccer team, especially Abbey, Lexi, and Kelly. I love her determined spirit, and I absolutely adore her relationship with her family. Everything good about stories that draws you in is executed beautifully in this book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ruthless Heir is the 5th book in the Mafia Elite series. Like all the others, it was ah-mazing. I was a little confused at first how the characters fit into the story, as neither seemed to be related. However, it all came together and turned out to be another great addition. I love that the characters are strong and independent on their own, and when together they are even stronger. There were a couple of parts that made me laugh out loud. The chemistry between Luc and Summer was strong, and I love how they fit into the couples from the Five Families. I cant wait for the next book in the series and am super stoked to see there are 2 more to come!

The story follows Harry, who over has gone by many names over many years, and his adventures. I will start by saying that although the first book is not necessary to follow along but makes book two significantly more enjoyable. With that being said, I had a much harder time getting into boom two but having read the first book, I knew it would get better and answers to my questions would be resolved. I enjoyed learning more about Harry and his past lives. The author did a really nice job seamlessly blending the past with the current time while also building wonderful character development. I found myself missing the same people Harry was and wondering what happened to them. We also continue to find out how Tristan is doing and his budding romance with Elena. My favorite interactions will always be with Tristan and Harry. I’m excited to read the third book.

This is book one in the Wolf Hollow Pack series. This is first book I have read by Ms. Nichole Howl and it was well worth the read. She has a way of bringing the characters to life between the pages and making you feel connected to them. Lily and Jason have a connection like no other as well as some steamy scenes that leave you wanting more. I was through with the book before I even realized the ending was upon me. I will be patiently awaiting book two.
There are some scenes described that may trigger readers sensitive to physical & sexual abuse, discretion is advised.

“Reunion in the Outback” written by Nicole Flockton, is the fourth book in the Welcome to Bunya Junction series, but can easily be read as a standalone. Michael and Yolanda were high school sweethearts, who left their small hometown and moved to the city to start a life together. They are now married with a young daughter, but when some intense and emotional stressors appear in their marriage, Yolanda heads back home hoping to rebuild her life. Michael is determined to keep his family together and fight for his marriage. The lack of communication between the couple was very frustrating at times, but I did enjoy the character development.

This is the second book in the series by this author I have read, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first one. I thought this book provided the reader more of the story of the main character, especially his past and what got him to where he is at today. I love her sci-fi writing style and her amazing depiction of the experiences going on in that place and time. This book brought me more emotion than the first book which I honestly was not prepared for, but it was all needed to help with the story arc. She did a great job. I would highly recommend that you read these books in order instead of reading this one first. It will benefit you in understanding how and what you are reading about. Very good read.

I think had the author spent just a little more time explaining what was going on and just slowed it down a tad, it would have been better. It seemed like I was missing part of the story by starting with book 2. I’m absolutely going to look for a book two however, because I’m looking forward to reading more from Nicole Howl.

Keeping Secrets is the fourth book in the Grimm Wolves MC Series. I absolutely loved reading this fast paced Romance/MC Romance that once I started reading I couldn’t put it down. I swear I was on the edge of my seat from the first page. I’m a huge fan of MC Romance and this book checked all the boxes. I highly recommend reading this series in order as it will help give you a better idea of what each character brings to the MC, plus who doesn’t love a good series? I loved everything about this book, the characters are fun, relatable and pretty easy to fall in love with. The authors style of writing grabs you from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. The only negative thing is I want more,more,more. This story has it all from action to drama, secrets, lies and little romance. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I will say parts had my emotions all over the place. If you’re a fan of MC then this is definitely one for you. You won’t be disappointed I know I sure wasn’t.

Ruthless Heir: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance (Mafia Elite, #5)Ruthless Heir: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I liked how this book started off in a different direction than previous books in the series.

Summer takes a temp job in California after escaping a near-death experience in Georgia. Finding out that her best friend didn’t make it out of the clutch of a New York mobster had Summer acting out of character and hooking up with a hot guy she met at a bar for a one-night stand. Waking up in his posh hotel room, and running late to work, she rushes in to the office only to find out the guy she spent the night with is her new boss. Thanks to her old boss throwing shade her way as he was escorted out, Summer finds that Luc, her one-night stand, now thinks she’s a spy who has worked with his enemies to steal his money.

When a Chicago mob boss shows up at the office and corners Luc while he’s still interrogating Summer, Luc brings her along to meet up with the five families in Chicago until he can figure out how she’s connected to his bank accounts being drained. Meanwhile, Summer fears her escape from Georgia may not have been as seamless as she thought, and she might actually be the reason for the Chicago mafia showing up. Hiding her own secrets, and trying to convince Luc she has nothing to do with his disappearing funds proves to be a challenge as both Luc and Summer get caught up in mafia business in Chicago.

Once again, the characters in this series make it hard not to fall in love with the families who run organized crime in Chicago. It’s a brutal life full of danger, and yet, the bonds with the friends and family in the crime syndicate are strong, loving, and protective. This book delivers, as the previous stories in the series have, on drama, intrigue, mystery, and romance.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book does NOT disappoint! From the smexy tension between Sam and Layla to the bond the Aberdeen sisters share to the supernatural aspect of the novel, S.B. Alexander keeps her readers on edge. With her well thought-out plot lines, character development, and descriptions, Alexander has her readers turning pages faster than vampire falls for vampire huntress. I absolutely love how Sam and Layla’s relationship develops over the course of this book, but it’s not overpowering. Alexander has put multiple plot lines in place and she does an excellent job of developing each at a pace that seems very appropriate. The spicy scenes are *chef’s kiss* amazing. They aren’t over-the-top nor are there too many or too few.

This is Sam & Layla Book #1 in the series and it does end on a cliffhanger. I cannot wait for Sam & Layla Book #2 to be released! It has made its way to the top of my TBR list! If you like romance, paranormal/supernatural, or are just looking for something different to read; definitely pick this book up and give it a shot…You won’t be disappointed!
