I highly recommend these books and what better than to have them all at once in a set?
Book 2 Such a great book! The story was filled with steamy romance, drama and action making for an excellent read. I just love Zoe. She is such a strong, independent, beautiful woman yet she is fragile and slightly self conscious. I am super impressed with her skills as a translator and kind of jealous she has such a great thing going for her with that. The chemistry between her and her new boss Archer is off the charts and I love them together. My heart breaks for Zoe, as sometimes she feels like she is not good enough for a man like him and then other times I want to scream at them both to just communicate better! The drama that unfolds with Archer’s new business buy out and Zoe’s brother is super exciting and along with all the action, fighting and plotting, really gave the book that extra edge. The secondary characters are very loveable and just as interesting to get to know. I would highly recommend this book and I personally can not wait to read Kai and Izzy’s story.
Book 3 A great follow up to Cold Bastard. In this book we meet Kai and Izzy. I was so hoping for their story and my dreams came true. This book is a nice mix of romance and suspense, so it will have you engrossed the whole way through. Kai’s father is a douche and Kai will stop at nothing to bring his father’s company down while also dealing with this feelings for Izzy. Izzy was brought in to help bring Kai’s father’s business down but at the same time her past secrets are revealed. Izzy is a strong woman, and her personality had me loving her from the very beginning. I do wish Kai and Izzy were not in so many compromising situations, or I could see them together quicker, but then we wouldn’t have a great story right? Second chance romance is one of my top favorite genres, so this book was perfect and everything I wanted for Izzy and Kai. I would recommend reading to find out if Izzy and Kai can make it through all of this drama. This book can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend you start from the beginning. This author never disappoints.
Book 4 5 stars! I love India Kells! This is the fourth book in the series and it could be read as a standalone but I would highly recommend reading the previous three, it is nice to be introduced to the brothers starting with the first book. I love how all of the brothers are half brothers and have formed bond so tight because of their one common goal, to take their father down. Liam and Catriona’s story had me hooked as much as the previous stories. The characters were nicely developed and the story was easy to follow and get lost in. I can totally understand Catriona’s choice to become a nun, but I can also see the strong attraction and pull she has to Liam, so of course I was rooting for her to ditch the sisterhood and get her man. Liam, I was happy to hear that he at least had some love growing up with his uncle, but being thrust into the world of his father, Jamison Finch, he knew nothing but violence and defiantly no love. Meeting Catriona I see him finding love in his life again, and he deserves it. This story has a lot of action, romance, drama, and suspense, it is the perfect combination. I really can’t wait to see what happens with the next brother Sam since that epilogue had me on the hook!
Book 5 I love that this series is not based solely on romance, but that there is action and drama. It sucks to see the brothers all still fighting their father, he is seriously deranged! My heart broke in the beginning to learn how Ellie and Sam were both feeling about life, but seriously awesome twist that Sam happens to call Ellie’s phone instead of his brothers and a bond forms between them. I liked watching Sam and Ellie dealing with and surviving in Jamison’s home and being basically held prisoner. The bond between the brothers, even though they haven’t known each other long is beautiful. Watching Ellie and Sam fight their inner demons and come together is sweet. At the end we get a glimpse of the next story which is involving Lazarus, fantastic name, and I have been most excited to read his story!
Book 6 Excellent ending to the Dark Sparrow series. I was happy to finally get to see what was going on with Lazarus and to see if he would get his own happily ever after. As with the first five books in the series, this author really has a way with getting you hooked. Sasha is such a strong and independent woman, and she seems like just the right type of woman that Lazarus would need by his side. The trauma she has to go through while being held captive and then fighting Jamison alongside everyone else makes her truly awesome to me. Lazarus, like all his brothers before, acts like Sasha needs protected and can’t defend herself, and I know it is all for fear of losing her, but we know she is a total baddie and could handle anything that is thrown at her. I wish the ending was a little more dramatic, but I was very satisfied especially with the epilogue.

This was an enjoyable ready. It is a historical cosy mystery. The author does an amazing job with the characters. I especially love the character of Alyssa.

They are destined to become wives and are sailing towards that destiny. All of them that is except Alyssa. She has plans of her own which doesn’t include being someone’s wife.

Will Alyssa find the killer and keep her new friends safe? Will she ever be able to complete her journey home? Or are the odds stacked so high against her that he plan is impossible This story is full of twists and turns which will keep the reader guessing and gripped to the story

The Vardoger Boy is the second book in The Forerunner Series. There’s a summary of the previous book at the start, but it is best enjoyed after reading Thorfinn and the Witch’s Curse.
This is an exciting story with fantasy elements set in the UK during Viking times. Having lived near York/Jorvik, I enjoyed recognising familiar sites and landmarks! There’s plenty of historical detail and the author really brings the world to life with multisensory descriptions. It really captured my imagination!
I particularly liked the depictions of women. There are shieldmaidens, who are as at home on the battlefield as male warriors. But there are also women who prefer working with needles than swords who prove ready to fight when the need arises. Kara is a wonderful character, and it’s particularly interesting seeing her grow in understanding as she sees a new side of the women in her life.
I would recommend this series to readers who enjoy historical fantasy, especially those interested in Vikings and Norse mythology! It gets five stars from me, and I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

I thoroughly enjoyed this historical cozy mystery, which had me hooked from page one. Set in 1862, our heroine, Alyssa Chalmers is one of a group of Victorian emigrants, who have arrived in British Columbia, having traveled by boat from Australia, to be brides. However, Alyssa is a very reluctant bride, but luckily she is a rather good intrepid sleuth, who all her friends turn to when there is a murder. The victim is the hotel owner in the prospectors’ town “Run’s End”, and along with the dead body, the gold which is stored there is also found to have something wrong with it. All the brides turn to Alyssa to find the murderer. However, the killer is both desperate and cunning and the epidemic outbreak complicates things further. The storyline had me gripped and the plot twists and turns kept me guessing until the last page. The characters are all wonderfully detailed, but Alyssa is particularly likeable and relatable and I was so engaged with her, that I felt I was solving the case alongside her. The descriptive narrative along with the added historical details bring both the setting and the era vividly to life. I could not put this book down, and I look forward to future books in this series, and I particularly look forward to meeting Alyssa Chalmers again!

This was a very fun tale. 4 friends and their tales. All showing how similar but also how very different these friendships are. Friendship and adventure lead through each tale, as well as the strength of each individual. This was an interesting read and I love anything Greek Mythology. The road it takes you down is one of fairy tale and myth all in one. I would read this and other tales again.

This is a great romance story that has a fantasy element interwoven throughout. I though this was a well written book that pulls you into the lives of the characters. I enjoyed the multiple points of view that you get to experience this book through, and the different aspects that brings to the story. This is still a relatively new author to me but the more of her work I read the more I am enjoying of it. I thought this was a strong start to a new series and I am looking forward to whatever is to come next.

Romance under Aquarius: Stargazing Series #1 by Danielle Jacks
This is not the first book I’ve read by the author. Romance under Aquarius is a fantastic read and will leave you wanting more. This is the first book in the Stargazing Series. There were four main characters, but two that stuck out the most.
Maris is a merperson and can’t wait to get married. Her best friend is concerned about her doing an arranged marriage, but it’s what her family had planned for her. She then catches her best friend and future husband in bed together. The quote I chose for Maris is: “Don’t feel bad for me. Ryn seems like a nice merman.”
Kasper will do anything to save his brother. Including finding a merperson to help him out. He doesn’t want to trust her, but it becomes inevitable once he gets to know her. He wants to pursue a relationship with her, but isn’t sure where to start. The quote I chose for Kasper is: “Fine. Yes. I’m jealous . Are you happy now?”

This may be a new author for me, but I will definitely go after this series. I was in total suspense throughout the story. Fighting against drugs is hard enough. But when friends and family are dragged into it. Makes finding the Kronilan Drugs and getting it off the streets a priority. DEA Agents Grant York and Josh McKenzie are assigned this task, are they ready? Can they find the culprit? Read on as I give you no Spoilers. The characters are easy to like and help keep you reading. While the story is fast paced, you will not want to put it down. This author has done her research and spun this into a Can’t Stop Reading intense story.

This suspenseful action book was one I didn’t wanna put it down. It was different than my normal read but It kept me guessing because I had no clue what was going to happen next and I was on the edge of my seat! This is a new author to me but after this book I won’t hesitate to pick up their other books! Happy Reading!

JP made the decision to not pull the trigger. He hesitated and now he lives with that hesitation. He lives with the deaths of his brothers. JP comes home and struggles with life, life as a husband, and life as a father. And he pushes everyone away trying to deal with PTSD and struggles with his horrible thoughts. With the impending weakening of the magnetic field and the sun, he tries to restore his relationships with his wife and son and also face himself. A couple times I struggled with the back and forth, but overall it was a very good story about the struggles of those who return from seeing horrible things in war.

This book is unmatched! We meet Jake – a dog who growls at everything! He even growls when he is happy and having fun! This is a great way to teach kids to be kind to everyone, even if they aren’t as you typically would expect them to be. The Loving Kindness activities are a fantastic addition to instill positive thinking, thankfulness, and kindness to ourselves and others from an early age. I could definitely have used a book like this growing up, would have saved me a lot of therapy dollars retraining my thinking!
Good message, good for all ages, and an adorable dog character… what’s not to love?? Thanks Samantha for sharing Jake with us!!

Human Hearts is the final book in this unique YA fantasy trilogy. What an epic conclusion it is. Mary is one great storyteller.
The story is told by three main POV which enriches the narrative in this page-turner. The characters are well crafted and developed and you can feel their emotions. The writing is beautifully crafted, the world building is vivid and creative and the plot is cleverly woven and is thrilling, interesting and highly engaging.
Three warriors who have been fighting to find themselves but also fighting for survival and the journey has been real and raw.
It is a story where you need to go into it blind and enjoy every moment in the discovery.

I enjoyed this fantasy story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my most enjoyable. I enjoy how she used her writing skills to pull you into the story. It makes you feel as if you are a part of the story. This is a well written story about sacrificing love and the cost of that said love. I enjoyed how the characters brought the story to life. They kept the story engaging and had me coming back for more. They have great growth and chemistry throughout the story. They brought so much to the story. You don’t want to miss this final conclusion to the Drako Song series. I highly recommend this book.

Jake the Growling Dog experiences a lot of mixed emotions when he has to go to a new place and meet new friends. It is a very relatable feeling, especially resonating with kids who are different. He quickly learns how to have fun with his new friends, but it is a comfort to have his best friend squirrel there with him. Though he doesn’t need to spend every minute with him, it shows kids there is a way to gradually introduce yourself into a new situation.
This book is complete with activities and breathing exercises. The author does a great job introducing mindfullness concepts and stress relief techniques in a way that kids can share with the significant people in their lives. The story is easy to read and the rhymes make it easy for kids to remember the lessons. The illustrations are so cute too! This is a great series for any age and I am excited to read more!!

I enjoyed this suspenseful romance story. I found this story to be well written and hard to put down. The author has great writing skills as well as attention to details that made the story realistic. The characters pull you into the story from the beginning. They are connectable and kept me coming back for more. This is a story where she is running from her past and he is returning home. The problem becomes that there is someone lurking in the shadows. This is where the story turns into action and romance. I found myself hoping these two characters would find their happily ever after but fate may have something else in mind. There is great growth with the characters as well as the plot. I enjoyed their chemistry and watching them grow. This is a great story that I really enjoyed reading. A fun, entertaining story that I highly recommend.

Finding Starlight is so much more than I could’ve ever imagined. It’s such a wonderful story of friendship, love, and family. Of course there’s definitely a dark cloud of drama/suspense woven in. One can definitely feel it too! Especially with the way it started, everything seemed perfect. I was just waiting for the other shoe to drop, and it definitely did. It just wasn’t who I was expecting. Ellawyn ran away from everything she knew in Maine, family, friends, and an abusive ex-boyfriend. She’s become a recluse now living in Quimby Grove PA. Setting up camp on a daily basis in Starlight Books, with the shop’s owner Benji. Starting to live life again, while helping Benji through a tough time, someone starts to target her. Which very well could force her back into her shell. Beckett being called away from Boston to come back home, he had no idea what he was walking into. When he found out his grandfather was sick he dropped everything to do what he could to help out. Mesmerized by this beautiful woman who seems to have set-up shop in Starlight books, he quickly learns she means a great deal to Pops(Benji.) Between the two of them the author weaves a web, that if someone would pull the strings it would put these two closer together in the center. Navigating through Benji’s illness is no walk in the park. And the way the author puts the reader through the emotions you feel it’s your loved one and not a story you’re reading. Getting emotionally invested is not an option. It’s going to happen and even more so if you’ve lived through any of the different narratives presented throughout. I speak from experience. So now it’s your turn, to live vicariously through the characters to see which narrative hits home the most while enjoying a fabulous story.

Distant Heart Sounds is the first book in the Nurse Morgan Series. This is an excellent find if you are looking for a fun, paranormal romantic mystery. Nurse Morgan is a fun and understandable character. She is returning to work from a near-death experience and now sees things that no one else does. Her new psychic abilities have her questioning her sanity and causing her alarm, especially after she returns to work at the hospital. I liked her character and the other characters as well. The story is well-written and enjoyable. In addition, I enjoyed the mix of several genres. Though there were resolutions to the story, I’m excited to see where this story goes. I look forward to reading more from this author and seeing more of Nurse Morgan in the future.

Distant Heart Sounds is the first book in the Nurse Morgan Series. It was my first by this author and I really enjoyed it. I will be reading book 2 soon! The book follows Morgan, an Emergency Dept nurse, shortly after returning to work after a near death experience. She soon discovers she has new abilities- seeing auras around people, seeing the future and past events, and communicating with ghosts. The ghosts that live in her house are hilarious, and a good addition to the story. I like how all the characters personalities are a bit different, and complement each other. Morgan has great friends, and it was fun to see her abilities develop as the book progressed. I was hoping for more development into Dr Lightfoot’s character, so I hope book 2 builds on him more. I recommend this book- while paranormal in nature, it isn’t creepy. Its lighthearted and funny at times.

Devil’s Breath is a suspense romance about an assassin named Sera and her mark, Cassius. Sera grew up poor with an abusive father after her mother died from drugs. Sera’s biggest weakness is satisfying her father, no matter what. Her father and a couple of associates want to invest in a “gems” company. This “gems” company is actually a way to sell drugs under the radar due to Sera’s brilliant chemistry mind. However, while she is a millionaire, they need a backer, that is where Cassius comes in. Cassius is one of the associate’s brothers, who hates him and wants revenge on the family he was disowned from. What they all didn’t count on was Cassius’ crazy smart brain and the fact that Sera’s tough exterior could have a flaw. Will Cassius figure out the plan before he loses his life? Will Sera’s tough exterior faulter for anyone besides her father? A game of cat and mouse is a good one! I enjoyed this book a lot. It always helps when you have a badass female lead who is an assassin with daddy issues. You get to see her transformation throughout the book and give you hope that people might be able to do and be better. However, her daddy issues did make me want to slap her at times. The two characters together had great banter, which I thrive off of. However, Cassius, oh my, he was my favorite character in the book. He was adventurous, charming, down to earth, and understanding. How he treated the people around him, especially Sera, just made you melt! He was a broken but honest, lovable, really good man that you just couldn’t help falling in love with.

This book is a fantastic start to a new series. It is exciting, fast paced and simply unputdownable. I was sucked into the story straight away and just had to keep reading to find out what was going to happen. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I was blown away by how easily is connect with his work. I really enjoyed the characters. Not just the main characters but a lot of the supporting characters too, which doesn’t often happen to me. I really did just enjoy this whole book from start to finish and I cannot wait to get my hands on book 2.

Wow, this book kept me on my toes right from the start! The suspense and tension is built right from the first chapter – you just know something is going to wrong – it’s like when you hear that music on a TV show! Nora Sommer is not your average detective from her heritage to her attitude, she throws you at every turn! Definitely one to keep an eye on! Plus the setting – wow! Highly recommended!

This is a great box set that I enjoyed each book. This is the Dark Sparrow collection of six books. They are by an author that has great writing skills and her attention to details make her stories pop. This is a collection of six men who are related as brothers and bound by blood. Add six females who have secrets of their own. Plus a dangerous father who is out to get everyone. This set is full of romance and suspense. They are each unique but link each book to the next. They are fast paced, engaging and hard to put down. This is a set you don’t want to miss out on. This is a great set that won’t let you down and will tick all your boxes. I highly recommend this box set and this author.

I went into this book thinking I knew what would happen, and boy was I wrong. This is not your typical romance. It is a book about hardship, determination, and learning how to love yourself. Grace is a character that you quickly connect with and immediately want to see her life improve. She is someone who doesn’t let adversity hold her back and she is determined to do whatever it takes to provide for her sick mother and younger sister.
I am not a UFC fan and know very little about the sport, but you don’t have to know anything to appreciate this story. Grace struggles with choosing to fight for more than just survival, and the reasons behind her feelings are absolutely heartbreaking. The way her story unfolds is well crafted. You are never just told what happened – you see the pieces of it through flashbacks, conversations with other characters, and her internal dialogue, and start to get a picture, and then when you finally see the whole picture, I cried for 14 year old Grace.
The supporting cast of characters are wonderful. Carl and Mason are in the background, but their support is what has gotten Grace through. Alasdiar took me by surprise. You think you know who he is and what role he will play in the story, and he became one of my favourite people. Johnny has his own trauma that he is dealing with, and while we don’t know much about his story, what we do know made my heart hurt for him. When he took down Zach for being disrespectful I wanted to cheer! There are multiple people who could be love interests, and all of them have reasons they could be good, or not good, but my reverse-harem-loving self wants her to have all of them LOL! I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
