I never hesitate for a moment to one click on this author’s books and this book is definitely no exception. I just LOVED this book from beginning to end. This story is perfectly crazy, different, some sizzling moments and just so much fun! The imagination that this author has just blows my mind behind her stories. Who wouldn’t want a cigar smoking octopus name Clyde? What a fun paranormal romance with a mix of magic and mayhem all rolled up into just a pure fantastic book!!
4.5/5 Stars This is such a cute read! A fake dating to lovers, age gap romance that is such a sweet story. Amara has been stung by love and vowed to not let herself be in that position again. Petro has been focused so much on work, he doesn’t have time to venture into dating. When the two of them are assigned to pretend to be engaged, what could possibly develop between them? This book reminded me of a Hallmark movie and it’s a very easy to read book. Even though it’s book 5, it’s a great stand alone novel and doesn’t require you to read the previous books in the series.

Can they convince people that they are engaged to be wed? Amara doesn’t think it is possible, but with the possibility of a promotion in sight she couldn’t pass up this opportunity. It didn’t hurt that the man slated to play her fake fiancée, Petro, was movie star handsome. Petro is looking to prove that he is good enough to make it on his own. When he finds out that he has an opportunity to make a good impression and possibly get a promotion he jumps at the opportunity. The upside to this impromtu trip is that he will get to spend more time with Amara. The downside is that it will be in California where his family resides. Will they be able to pull this off without a hitch? Or will their fake romance turn into something more?
I just want to start this off by saying that I have a hard time trying books by authors I have never heard of before. This is the first time I have read anything this author has written and I enjoyed it immensely.

This book was a very quick read for me! I absolutely loved the back and forth banter between the characters even though there has been 5 years since they last saw each other. The relationship reminded me of my relationship with my best friend. We would drop everything to help one another out even though we live 16 hrs apart.
Patti and Cate are the best of friends and when Cate needed her, Patti showed up. Highly recommend this book and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

This author has quickly become one that I’d read absolutely anything by. And once again I found myself completely drawn into one of the stories created. From the beginning I knew I wouldn’t be putting this book down until the end and I was completely right. Instantly I just felt like I was there seeing this story play out in front of me. The author does awesome job of writing not only great storylines but characters that are easy to connect with and root for. This was a fun read and I’ll definitely be adding it to my rereading list. It’s a well written storyline and I’m always sad when I end one from this series but enjoyed my time with the characters. Five stars all the way and highly recommended!

This book wiggled its way into my heart and I’m so glad I found it. Scott and Franceen pulled me into their world and I just couldn’t find the will to leave it until the end came. I instantly felt a connection with Franceen I really like her story and character. This story is sweet and a bit emotional but so worth it. It will definitely pull at your heart strings. It’s well written and paced nicely with characters you just can’t help but connect with. I’m excited for more from this series. Five stars and highly recommended!

Unbelievable 3rd instalment in the Anchoress series! I had sweaty palms and my heart was pounding away. This was a can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t function until I’ve finished every page sort of book. I definitely don’t think after having read this book and the last 2 that you would get the full effect if you didn’t read them all in order however I personally prefer to have the full backstory so who knows! D.L is getting put on my shelf with the greats, with a series I will read over and over again that’s for sure. I couldn’t recommend this book, this series or this author enough! Truly enjoyed every second. I feel like the characters are family and I loved watching them evolve and grow. I have never been so sad to finish a good book more than I was for the Anchoress series.

The Stars Will Sing Our Songs Long After We Are Gone…
…but who will remain to listen? Who will hear their sagas of conflict and discovery, their hymns of honor in the face of political intrigue, their ballads of tough calls made against the opposition of friends and enemies alike?
Open your ears to these unyielding revelations which sing of humanity’s place in the cosmos among distant worlds, of beings that exist outside our reality, and of shocking futures. Listen to their tales. Sometimes there are no good choices only hard calls. Though humanity may one day vanish, the stars forget nothing. We can only hope Vox Astra will be kind when they tell of us.

Dr. Stella Magi has never been one for half measures. Despite drinking her way through residency, she’s sober now and a successful surgeon. Still, she has cravings for that high, and MetroGen is full of eligible bachelors who can meet her needs.
Juggling three guys is harder than she thought, and she’s gonna have to narrow it down soon. Should she pick Marcus Doyle, the playboy of the ER, Alex Casserty, the sensitive and cerebral neurosurgeon, or Joel Glazier, her super macho friend with benefits?
Or she could just choose herself – right before all hell breaks loose.
WARNING – this book ends on a jaw-dropping, unforgivable cliffhanger and violates every romance rule you know. If this isn’t not for you, keep scrolling. However, everyone else, I promise red-hot M/F sex as Dr. Stella tries out every flavor in the sexy doctor ice cream store.

Sophie Smith—actress, influencer, in a close personal relationship with her blender— finds herself on a French mountain with a grumpy llama, a boyfriend with a bad case of commitment phobia and his sexually liberated parents.
In between getting chased around the farm by angry goats, dealing with his beautiful ex-girlfriend and fending off a Frenchman, she’s also having an existential crisis.
All she needs to do is get her boyfriend to stop quivering in fear at the L word, teach that llama to snuggle and work out what she actually wants to do with her life, then everything will be fine. Right?
This book was steamy and also pushed boundaries but it was still good. Make sure you read the authors note at the beginning before you read it so you know what you’re getting into. Watching Penny and Falcons relationship grow was very interesting and pretty amazing. I’m glad at the end of pretty much everyone got what they deserved. Overall a very good book.
Vanessa Cross is back another year later and another year wiser, or at least she hopes so, but when she is the last of her teammates in the yearly Jaychund games and is confronted by the last team member on the opposing side, Vanessa experiences a surge of anger against the outsider who has barged in and taken what should have been hers, the winners circle. Vanessa is frustrated by this loss and is compounded by the needling comments her stepmother keeps making towards her loss in the games, compounded with her happy, secret boyfriend and Vanessa’s lack of one, but this just keeps Vanessa in a state of anger which pushes away all those around her, especially her best friend and her ex-boyfriend who seem to be getting closer by the day. Another thing irking her is that her boyfriend, the Balish crown prince Ferox, hasn’t spoken to her for ages and she has no idea why, so she plans on going up to the Living world early to confront him and find out why, she tries not to think about the fact that she also hasn’t spoken to him, so she decides on a plan of action and attempts to carry it out.
Unfortunately, her superiors are having none of it and refuse her request, but Vanessa bends the rules to breaking point and ends up going anyway, but this only leads to more questions when she is briefed about her summer and it is not to Vanessa’s liking at all. This leads to arguments and in the end they have to open up to Vanessa and give her the details about the goings on in the Living world and how the dangers to her life have increased. More of the Balish people have become sick with the virus which hit the whole of the upper worlds last year, but more than that, an old enemy has returned and is seemingly a part of the family again, but this doesn’t have the desired affect on Vanessa and she still insists on going and in the end, they acquiesce to her request, but not without conditions.
As the mission starts and her team has been assembles, the journey starts to head deep into Balish territory to fix another of the ancient seals, however, Vanessa is feeling a pull in another direction and tries her hardest to complete, even though her powers are on the fritz and she is struggling to access them. When she slips up and breaks a minor Balish rule, she ends up in another different set of games and her life just becomes more complicated as she has to battle for survival again, but will she prevail, or will this be the end of her and her team? In another action packed adventure, this fantastical journey continues with more twists, turns, danger and intrigue than ever as assassins, old enemies and the royal family combine to make this journey a treacherous one.

Armillei – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.
Book two of the Anchoress series did NOT disappoint. A year later and a whole lot wiser, Van grows as a character before my eyes. I had my doubts, because I was over the moon for the first in the series, Shock of Fate, but goodness! Utterly amazing. D.L. is a stellar author and I hope she never stops giving me more exciting, danger filled books! I see the appeal for young adult but how easily someone like myself who considers herself just a plain old regular adult can fall into this books trap! Every page was one I read every word twice hoping they would transport me to this realm she has created. I cannot wait for book 3!

I could not put this book down. Despite the fact the main character is a teenager, I was completely enthralled. Honestly the dynamic character list was incredible! Such a well written book that I needed, not wanted, but needed to read the second immediately upon finishing this one. I must say, This book was so easy to lose yourself in, I was not in the present world for the entirety of this book. If I did have to stop reading it, I was thinking about it, dreaming about it, wondering what was to come. Such a well spun tale with an amazing flow! Kudos to this author!

My emotions swirled from laughter to tears to sheer happiness and it really was a love story one could wish for on a star.

This story is one of the most fabulous romances that I have read this year, with a fake fiancé theme who could resist? This story was brilliant and unique, and full of crushes, love, secrets, drama and more. This author takes us on. A topsy turvy roller coaster ride through out characters lives. Amara needs a fake fiancé for a promotion and Petro is a hot shot at the office that just jumps at the chance to fill the role. But will everyone believe that these two are two lovebirds planing a wedding? Will real emotions come into play or will they be able to walk away from each other when their done? If you want to know the answers to these questions you’ll have to read this book to find out for yourself.

I can get behind any book that showcases mystery, murder, history and characters you can’t help but grow to love. That happened here and so much more! This book was exciting and entertaining! The perfect book to get cozy with and forget the world for a little while. I really enjoyed the authors writing style and felt the plot flowed so nicely! My first from the author but definitely not my last!

I was late to the party on this one and I’m most grateful for grace ❣️ I’m a firm believer in things happen for a reason and even with my books I believe I read them when I’m meant to and I read this later than I was supposed to because I believe it can at the right time , a time when my heart needed comfort , it felt like I was sitting at Norahs feet and listening to her story of how Bella came about and how Logan came to have the honour of having Bella .
Now this book is made of 2 books and while I’d love to honour each one in it’s entirety they really flow , go hand in hand and I’m so grateful I had this chance to experience it this way ….
In Bella I met Giovanni and I teared up more than once at the injustice some folk have to endure because of another’s greed but there’s always a silver lining and Giovanni eventually lives his dreams out with Norah and Elsie .
The way Giovanni describes how a he or even his “ teacher”!made a violin made me hungry to hear it’s beautiful sound and having played the violin myself for many years I actually had goosebumps on a few occasions! I think that’s where my love of classical music started , in any case I could hear the music in my minds eye and this story about Bella was so beautifully written ❣️
So I finished off Bella on a sad but beautiful note and I’m curious to learn more about Logan and thankfully all I had to do was turn the page to continue on my journey into “Jagged Dawn”
Logan is married to Jack who seems to enjoy his clients and liquor more than her and I had to try and keep an open mind and not take an instant dislike to the man , so be warned 🤞but there’s their daughter Amy , who’s independent and taking a gap year on a year long internship as an assistant to a photographer traveling through the African continent!
Then my blood runs cold while they’re at Antonio’s but it seems I was a little hasty and just as I catch my breath I near but have a panic ….poor Logan , I didn’t think I could read any further for all the tears and again I was treated for pushing through and now I’m just hungry for more !

Friendship. Secrets. Guilt. These all combine to make this such an amazing book!! I could not put it down. Cate and Patti are best friends and seniors in high school whose lives change on Prom night. Twenty years later they discover that things are not always as they seem. Can their friendship survive? This book is one of my favorite reads of 2022.

Vanessa Cross returns and a year has passed since her last mission, since then, she has been training hard to hone her skills and increase her prowess as a warrior, she trains at least once a day and challenges herself to excel and to encourage others to do the same, but she also tries not to think about everything that happened the year before as the emotions are still to raw. The only one who seems serious about the whole thing is Brux, her unrequited love interest whom she can never be with, but who she wants more than anything else, but as summer approaches and everyone else focusses on having fun and letting loose after another year of school, all Vanessa wants to do is improve herself. The first thing on her list is to surf one of the more dangerous and out of bounds beaches, but like everything else seems to, it backfires and she nearly drowns, but as usual, even her near death experience includes visions of monsters and the darkness chasing after her, however, Brux is there to save the day again, much to her annoyance.
After her brush with death, Vanessa returns home only to find out that her stepmother has a new love interest and Vanessa is trying hard to accept this and move on, so she decides that the only way she can do that is to harden her heart to emotions so that she can be the fierce warrior she needs to be to save all those around her. She is also annoyed that she has been unable to find and retrieve the necklace her father left in her stepmothers care just before he died, this is compounded with the fact that she managed to find an ancient artefact, but now she is unable to find one necklace and her frustration eats away at her.
To try and distract herself from this, Vanessa insists on going to see the person in charge to find out what the summer will hold for her, she is stunned to find out that it isn’t something she expected and instead, she has to go and repair a seal which keeps the barrier between the Living and Earth worlds apart and keeps the demons at bay. Meanwhile, she insists that she is ready for whatever comes next, so when she goes on this mission, she unexpectedly is thrown into one messy situation after another which tests her in the hardest way possible.
Will Vanessa be able to overcome the temptations of the darkness surrounding her, or will the light prevail once again? This is another fast paces fantasy adventure which takes you further into the Anchoress universe as danger lurks in every shadow and the light seems more challenging to find and cling to as a stronger, darker and more dangerous enemy works against them in this race against time as Vanessa rushes to complete the essential repairs to save herself, her friends, her people and all humanity.

L. Armillei – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.
I felt dirty reading this book and not because it is a romance novel. Although this was a fairly historically accurate book, it felt like there were things that were glamorized that should never have been. I’m thankful it was a quick and easy read as I just couldn’t get into it. I’ll give it three starts because the character development was strong and you felt their emotions otherwise, I just couldn’t enjoy it.
I really enjoyed this book! The chemistry between Jeremy and Regan was well developed. You rooted for them with every obstacle. There was a good balance of steam and emotion. The author provided really good support in the development of the characters. I would definitely read more by this author.

This author did a wonderful job of blending a few fairytales. At first it was a little confusing, but once you get the hang of it, it’s easy to split the characters. The retelling of these fairytales along with combining them, is something I dont see very often and it’s not done well. But this author baffled me and did it wonderfully. She builds this world and it is simply amazing to ay the least. I loved reading about Cathal and Eala had me crying, laughing, and being angry and a whole slew of other emotions. Wonderful job! Im looking forward to reading her other books!

I love retold fairy tales, and this one did not let me down. I love the way the story was artfully told and how it drew me right in with the evil king. I loved Swan Island and was cheering for Cathal and Eala to find their happily ever after. The twists and turns were exciting, and I couldn’t wait to see how it all resolved. Definitely a fun read that appeals to my inner kid that loves fairy tales and happily ever afters.

This book seriously has everything to hold my attention. It is very easy-to-read. I can take the romance genre or leave it, but this author’s style of mixing in the paranormal hooked me. The characters of Hope and Russ are so enthralling and their connection so intriguing that I fell right into the story with no problem. This is the fourth book in the series, so I recommend reading the previous books, but I would also recommend any of them on their own. I love the author’s writing style and give this book 5 stars!

This is yet another strong addition to this series. I’m loved the whole feel of the book and I really thought the characters brought it to life. The connection between them was evident right from the word go. I’m not always a huge fan if age gaps stories but I thought the author did a great job of creating characters that were believable and engaging. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and would recommend this whole series.

This is a series that I absolutely love, and each book adds to it. So to get a chance to see how it all started was something I could not pass up. I was hooked on these short stories from the moment I started reading. Although both were quick reads I was drawn into was drawn ino each story and could not stop reading. I love the way this author creates such additive stories. Her books all have a great flow about them, developed perfectly with amazing characters. This was a great way to continue a series I have come to love.

This was a good story of a well known plot line with a twist. Usually stories like this would be the younger female pursuing the handsome, older man. This story turned the tables and featured an “older” woman. As a woman approaching 40, I appreciated the perspective in this story. I felt that the relationship was plausible and I also liked the slow burn and build of their romance. I would definitely read more from this author and other books like this.

Another fantastic addition to this series! I have loved every book so far and this one was no different. The writing is excellent as usual and I was pulled into Petro and Amara’s story straight away. I just absolutely loved these two together, even though their relationship may not have started out traditionally – I could tell that the feelings and attraction there was so genuine and they were just perfect for each other. I really did enjoy reading their story! I would highly recommend this story and also the series!

I really enjoyed this book, it was fun read and had great characters who I fell in love with straight away. I really love this authors writing, she had a really engaging writing style and her books never fail to entertain me. Graham and Lara were wonderful characters to read about, I loved the connection that they had both professionally and in other ways. I loved the competition between them when it came to their baking. I loved the way the book was written with the differing points of view, it was entertaining and such a fun read. I really recommend this fun, sweet read!
