My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Nite Fire: Slash & Burn by C.L. Schneider

This is another great read by the author. Slash and Burn is the fourth book in the Nite Fire Series. This book is full of twists and turns.

Dahlia is once again at it. She’s trying to fight what’s going on in the world. She has to fight to get back to where she was. The quote I chose for Dahlia is: “I’m not claiming he’s an upstanding citizen, just…Goddammit, Alex, think about this for a minute. You aren’t in the position to go after anyone with power right now. Not after Arno Gant and what happened with Mayor Anderson.”

Highly recommended for Supernatural Fantasy lovers.

5/5 Stars

The Hunted (Vampire Navy SEAL: Sam & Layla #1) by S.B. Alexander

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. It won’t be my last by her either. The author had me entrapped from the moment I started reading. It’s a hard book to put down. This is the first book in the Vampire Navy SEAL Series.

Sam is a vampire who was turned by his father. He is a Navy SEAL and on the lookout for the bad guys. He must protect the humans, but when the Vampire Hunters come into play things get messy. Layla will be his and doesn’t know it. The quote I chose for Sam is: “You’re mine, Layla. That wasn’t a line to get you into bed.”

Layla has been hunting Vampires for as long as she can remember. Her sisters are working beside her on these hunts. Their father taught them what to do. Now they’ve got problem after problem. One sister is compelled, one sister is being held hostage, and she is stuck wanting to kill Sam or get him into bed. The quote I chose for Layla is: “You know, I just realized something. I’m going to enjoy killing you when you lose that bet you so confidently slapped on the table. I mean, if you keep me chained, I win. Right?”

Highly recommended for Vampire Romance lovers.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a cute children’s story that I thought taught trust and helping others. A special gift from his Grandpa for his unbirthday, Caspian never knows what to expect. This year was no different when he received a pad of paper a pencil. This pencil took Caspian on an adventure where I thought the story did a great job of showing the importance of helping other and trusting those that are out to help you. Both my daughters enjoyed this cute story and really like the illustrations.

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

When I say I couldn’t put this book down, I literally mean I finished in one sitting – at 3 am! The story grips you immediately, intense action from the very start. It has everything you could want – thrilling, surprising, and SO SIZZLING!! I want to hear more about Luc and Summer!!
Amy McKinley does a masterful job of bringing you into the world of these characters. Laced with innuendo and tension, you can’t help but root for the main characters and everyone in the Chicago Mafia family. Each one very well distinguished from the next – I will likely go back and read it again!
Though I came late to the party, I immediately went and purchased the first four books to read as well. I cannot say enough good things about this. If you like wit, steam, romance and strong characters – with a hint of danger and thrill – run to get this series!!

Melodie Boxset (Melodie #1-2)Melodie Boxset by Laura Rossi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love that this set offers the opportunity to meet and fall in love with the characters, and then embark on another journey with them together. Melodie is a powerful package in a small box; You take an instant liking to her and her hopeless romanticism. This is a fun series that also incorporates serious vibes and storylines. Perfectly imperfect with just enough passion and humour!
Laura Rossi does an incredible job of taking you on the journey with her in London. A flirty romance, an atypical main character, great support characters, and a lot of scenery. I can’t wait to read more about the entanglements of the broader characters in the series! Let’s have one about John and Mike, whose wit and style give the main characters a run for their money!!

Very cute children’s story! Caspian’s grandpa has given him another “unbirthday” gift and this year it’s a pencil. The pencil gives Caspian clues and he has to figure out what they mean. While the premise of this idea is good, I’m not sure a child would be able to figure out what the author was intending. The illustrations were bright and descriptive. The sentences were fairly simple so someone working on learning to read would be able to read this book. Overall, good children’s book.

My Valentine’s Day Cookie Match (Welcome to Cupid’s Cove) by C.A. King – Review by Rosanna Ingram

My Valentine's Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids CoveMy Valentine’s Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids Cove by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Graham is quitting his city job to move Cupid’s cove and launch his new matchmaking app and coffee shop. He is banking on people making it popular in their quest to find love. Lara runs a bakery with her mother in Cupid’s Cove. After her recent breakup, the bakery is all she has to keep her sane. That is, until the mayor (who happens to be Lara’s father) approves a new coffee shop to open up in town.

However, when Graham’s business opens up, Lara finds herself spending more and more time with Graham and their chemistry and banter is there in spades! But, as it is with small towns, his ex comes through town and stirs up some drama and families meddle under the guise of doing what’s best. Can these two make it work despite being rivals (and the age gap)?

The story was a cute small-town rivalry story. It was a quick read and a quick-paced story. Using the radio intros was something I enjoyed reading…and the recipes sprinkled within the pages sound yummy!

Claiming My Mate was a great short read. I haven’t read a shifter book in quite a while and this one reminded me how much I enjoy them.

I highly recommended if you’re looking for a good shifter romance.

First off I’ll have to say I hate clowns. I think that they are creepy and most definitely belong in a horror novel. That being said, this book was marvelous. Horror stories have always been one of my go to genres, and this one proved that even young adult ghost stories can make me jump. The characters were likeable, the plot unique. Scary clowns, spooky ghosts, and a read that can’t be put down. Bravo 🙂 can’t wait to read more

Until There Was You by G. Colgrove – Review by Angela Shirley

Until there was youUntil there was you by G. Colgrove
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Regan always thought she was cursed, wanting to leave Boston and travel the world. Being the first in her family to graduate her world was ahead of her but in one walked Jeremy and her world stood still.

Jeremy is destine to inherit Stone Development, he has worked hard to prove to his father that he is capable to takeover the business. So this project in Boston starts off great he has the backing but when they step into the diner across from one of the developments and he sees her, all his dreams and aspirations do not seem that important anymore.

This is the first story I have read by this author and I really enjoyed the well written and developed characters. I loved the sassy, strong character of Regan, she knew what she wanted as was not afraid to let Jeremy know exactly what she was thinking and feeling.

Jeremy for me was a great character to match the strong willed character of Regan, but with him being that bit older his responsibilities to his family made your heart ache for the both of them. I loved the secondary characters and would love to know the story behind Shane her brother in the end and does Phillip find his love as I wish he was my best friend also.

All-round I loved this book from start to finish, the story was engaging and at times my heart did break for the two main characters, thank you for a great book I can’t wait to read more.

My Valentine's Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids CoveMy Valentine’s Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids Cove by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a great, heart-warming contemporary romance that I devoured in a few hours. It’s a feelgood romance that was great to read after having read a heavy, dark romance before it. I enjoy both types but this was just what the doctor ordered at the time.
Marketing specialist Graham has decided on a career move, opening a cookie shop with the added bonus of having a dating app based on your purchases. Very apt in a town called Cupid’s Cove. What he doesn’t expect is Lara, the mayor’s daughter, whose family own the local bakery. Intent on hating Graham for proving competition, she’s surprised by how much the two of them click.
As always, true love never run’s smoothly and Graham and Lara’s love is put to a very big test to prove just how true it is.
This is a great read, which I really enjoyed and would definitely recommend it to others, especially if you are looking for a quick, heart-warming read to lose yourself in for a few hours.

A Tormented Man's Soul (Grimm Wolves MC Book #5)A Tormented Man’s Soul by D.M. Earl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been reading this series since book number 1, and each time I am hooked and amazed by the amazing writing. The author is very good at what they do, and craft a engaging story that gives you a lot of feels and emotions, and most certainly, this was a book I could not put down. Very compelling!

This one follows the lines of the other books in the series. This time around, Chains and his story is finally told. I have patiently waited for his story for quite some time. I knew had a a lot of layers that must have been caused by past stuff, but I never imagined it would go as deep as this story allowed it to go! The past truly haunts him, but the 2 souls that care abut him help him even in his darkest times and darkest hours. It was really beautiful in truth to read that. I enjoyed reading and learning of Chains and all he had to undergo. It really made me feel for him. I defiantly sensed as well as felt the strong character development. This book alone was a must read. Defiantly worth picking up and giving it a read!

Amazing series, and this installment was a freaking wow factor type of read. Highly recommend this series if you have not read the prior books. This book alone was amazing and full of spirit and emotion. Not one to be passed up by any means. Highly recommend this must read book/series!

This is just another great book in this series. This book has continued the series and I have been long awaiting this book. I have read the whole series so far and I find it just gets better as it goes on. I like how the author keeps the balance of drama and intrigue. I really was at the end of my chair as I got further into the book. I didn’t want to put it down.

I was really interested how the author would carry on after the ending of the last one and I was not disappointed. I really enjoyed the mix of supernatural and human characters. I really like how the author is able to weave the story and branch it to make the series flow and grow. I really cannot wait to read more from this author cause if the ending of this book is anything to go by there is so much more to come.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved the first book in the series, and this one certainly had the same effect and appeal on me as the first in the series did! This one I think I may have actually enjoyed it a bit more in truth! This one had just as convincing depth to the story, and a world that is in chaos, and not sure when the end is in sight!

The story continues from the cause and effect of the first one. The strong suspense, and thrill continues in this one as well. I was completely captivated even more with the events that were happening as well as the strong character development that greatly added nicely to the surrounding story. This story is very fast pace and certainly not dull in any form. I loved this series and this installment. I am curious where this could go next, this is a series, as well as book not to be passed up by any means!

I love this author for all the characters and worlds they create. This series quickly became a favorite of mine. And this book alone truly captivated me! Highly recommend tp read this series if you have not had the pleasure yet, and this author too! High recommendation from me as its a must read!

This is the first instalment of a duet that I’m pretty sure I will read again if this first book is anything to go by. I had read one of this author’s books before and had really enjoyed it, so I has no issues reading more of this author’s work.
Can I say, I really loved this book. It had my emotions all over the place. My heart broke for Kally and Clark so many times. No one deserves the heartache that their families put the two of them through. I pray that they get their well deserves HEA.
This book will really tug on the heart strings. I don’t think I’ve hated anyone as much as I hated Clark’s brother Colton. That man is just pure evil.
The author does a brilliant job is grabbing you tightly at the beginning of the book and keeping a tight grasp right through and not letting you go. As the first part of a duet, there is more of this fascinating story still to come and I can’t wait to read it.

Absolutely recommend this book. It’s a cute little love story that I just couldn’t put down! Melodie is a street musician in London. Artistic, tattoos, piercings and pink hair! She’s secretly crushing on Office Guy, a “square” who spends every lunch break on a bench facing her and listening to her play. One day he talks to her and their lives will never be the same. Do opposites really attract?

Pixie and Office Guy have been together a year now and still going strong. He pops the question and she says yes of course! Then the doubts set in. Is she good enough to make him happy? Is she marriage material? Will his family approve? I really enjoyed the next chapter in the lives of Melodie and Issac. I read both books in less than 24 hours!

I have been a long time fan of this amazing author, but I have not yet had the chance to read this one. Needless to say I devoured it! It was so good from start to finish, I could not get enough. The world and the characters as well as what was going on, it was a bit crazy but awesome!

A find leads to a change. What would that change bring though? I was involved very much in this book as well with all the characters. This “find” leads to a lot of things, and things get a bit out of this world sort to say, I was on the edge of my seat wanting t o know what would end up happening next! I was hooked, and the story certainly never slowed down and highly kept my interest. I loved the ending how it was left open for part 2. So needless to say, i am looking forward to reading the next installment!

Amazing writing and book. It was different in many ways than I could have ever imagined! I was surely not disappointed! Highly recommend this book and this author! Prepare for sleepless nights!
