My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Suspense, Violence, Love, Fireworks

I have to say this is the best book I have read this year. I’m an avid reader and this book pulled me in so many directions. I was captivated by the characters within the first two chapters.

Areley is the main character and has had a crush on Kurt since she was about 11 years old. Although life in the future has them separated due to the difference in age, she has always had a fierce attraction to her brother’s best friend.

Kurt, a military man, is back, State side and has helped a friend with a BDSM club. He is a Dom with many PTSD issues. He is drowning in self pity and doesn’t know where to go from here.

After a tragic and scary incident, Areley is forced away from home and into hiding.

I could not put this book down. I needed to know what was going to happen. I enjoy BDSM based books. This was the best book on the topic and more to the actual scene. Though as the author states a little rushed due to time constraints.

This is a MUST read.

Caged Fire (The Vigilant Book 1) by LM Preston – Review by Jenni Bishop

Caged Fire (Vigilant, #1)Caged Fire by L.M. Preston
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 stars

You leap right in and hit the ground running with this short story. Caged Fire is fast-paced and action packed. It is a paranormal story mixed with fantasy and science fiction. It is written in the third person so it took me a while to get into flow of it. Lots of action and suspense, betrayal and mystery, love and sacrifice see our heroine on a journey to find her dad’s killer.

Emvee was changed in a world full of magic and werewolves. A dark world she knew nothing about. Now she needs help but she has no idea who she can to trust.

The story leaves you with many more mysteries left to be answered.

Enemies of DovesEnemies of Doves by Shanessa Gluhm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The anticipation the author leaves is similar to chasing a high. You read each page as if it will hold the answer you are searching for. The author had my attention from the first sentence to the last. It was difficult getting anything done because I wanted to know what happened to the Fitchett brothers. The only way I was going to get my answer was if I kept reading.

The characters are brought to life in such a way that you almost feel like you are reading a nonfiction book. I do not think I can describe the Fitchett brothers as anything other than relatable without giving anything away. Then you have Garrison and Molly who you are rooting for the entire time. And of course you cannot forget Lorraine, who is loveable but frustrating. You also have characters who play a smaller role in the novel, but the author writes about them giving them as much personality as the main characters. This book is truly a work of art. If you enjoy a good mystery novel, this is the perfect one for you. It will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time.

Insatiable Darkness (The Vigilant Book 0) by LM Preston

Insatiable Darkness is the prequel to The Vigilant Series and is a YA/Fantasy that’s packed with mythology, mystery, drama, and some supernatural. This is a very short story that can be read in one sitting. This is a fairly new author to me and I look forward to seeing what other books she has written. I was very intrigued by the storyline and the characters. The characters are fun relatable and fully developed. This is a story about EmVee. EmVee and her family move to a new town where her parents run a gym. They are professional Boxers and Emvee is as well. She starts a new school where something weird is happening. Several sports students have gone missing and whoever is doing it is leaving behind certain parts. Can they figure out who it is and why before its too late? There’s a couple of twists and turns that had me turning the pages trying to figure out what was going to happen next. I don’t want to give away to much but I do highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Never more have I wanted to fall down a rabbit hole or jump through a mirror! Branson brought this fantasy story to life in ways no one else could! This strange world that is introduced vividly stuck with me as I read through. Each chapter brought a new element of excitement with the unknown of what is next. Gaslight fantasy is very new to me, however it makes for a very interesting read.
Evaline was a great MC and her plight to prove herself and live her life as she chooses made me fall in love with her character all the much more. As she explores in this unknown place trying to help take down Doctor Death you see her in her element. Every character introduced and encountered along the way bright such life to the story. The mix of magic, mystery, and suspense made it difficult to even attempt putting the book down.

Quinn McNamara

Blood. Death. War.

A dynasty destroyed.

Leaving me as the ultimate prize. 

I’m an unmated Omega Wolf. A Princess. And destined to rule. But the remaining Alpha Princes all want to claim me, their brutal methods terrifying and cruel. 

I’ve spent the last century running, hiding in places where no one would think to look.

Only he found me. Prince Kieran, the most powerful shifter of them all. 

Our game of hide and seek has come to an end.

It’s time for me to submit.

Or to die fighting. 

Kieran O’Callaghan

My little trickster escaped me once. She indulged in a dangerous game of chase throughout the Sectors, but I’ve finally found my prize. 

Poor little darling thought I valued chivalry and courting. I’m an Alpha Prince. I take what I want, when I want it, however I want it. And her sweet blood beckons the predator within me to destroy all her dreams of a happily ever after. 

Let the Princes enjoy their Royal V-Wars.

As long as they bow to me as King of Blood Sector, I won’t intervene.

Besides, I have a new pretty little Omega to tame. It’s time to put a crown on her and make her my queen.

Author’s Note: This is a standalone dark shifter romance with Omegaverse themes. Kieran is an unapologetic Alpha Prince and Quinn is a feisty Omega Princess. It’s a match made in literal hell where the antihero is the king.

The Letter Carrier by Laurie L.C. Lewis – Review by Angela Hayes

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

“The Nazi’s took her country, her village, and her home, but Michelle Naget discovers that freedom begins in one’s heart.”

The Letter Carrier by Laurie L.C. Lewis is a superb coming of age story set in France during WWII. What sets this story apart from others is not only Ms. Lewis’s wonderful writing and storytelling talent, but also the fact that this is a true story.
This historical story tells of a young girls experience to survive and also trying to keep her family safe- with all the dramatic details we read of family, war, faith, courage, heartache, friendship, culture, challenges, and struggles- all while giving us a window into life in those times.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Laurie L.C. Lewis!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great story! When I read Romeo and Juliet in high school, I didn’t like it because in the end, what started as a beautiful love story was just a tragedy. I know that tragedy is a real life thing, but I read to escape real life, so I don’t necessarily want to read something with an unsatisfying ending like a true Shakespearean tragedy. This was a fabulous take on a classic that held more emphasis on romance than tragedy. I enjoyed the fact that it was queer as well. I will definitely be continuing to find more by this author, and reading the next installment of this story!

This Time Around is the newest instalment from one of my ‘must read’ authors and is now firmly at the top of my favourite books by Jane Suen. It is a sweet second chance contemporary romance, with emotion, family, angst, chemistry, steam, touching and tender moments, fate, miscommunication/misunderstandings, hurt, grudges, and just enough drama to keep me flipping the pages.
With work pressure and responsibility weighing her down, Katie Simmons decides to attend a wedding back in her hometown at the last minute, hoping for a little light distraction. But, little did she know that she would be coming face to face with a part of her past she thought she’d let go. But fate had ensured that they were thrust together at the wedding- mmmm awkward much. With past hurt, grudges, chemistry, and some sizzle- things are about to get interesting.
As with anything Ms. Suen does, she had me hooked right from the beginning and kept me engaged the whole way through.
Looking forward to whatever Ms. Suen decides to do next!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Jane Suen!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A well written story of love, romance, new friendships, helping each other through grief, tragedy, and so much more! I enjoyed reading this story from the start. Roxanne is taking on the roll of caregiver to Claudette a well known author. Not only does Claudette need some help getting around her house, she asks Roxanne to ghost write her next story which is personally important to Claudette. What Roxanne didn’t expect was finding an attic room where she meets Philip (a ghost?) and realizes Claudette’s book is a story based on real life people Claudette knew.
The story is easy to read, the characters are wonderfully written, and it sucks you in so you want to keep reading until the end. I enjoyed the book very much and would recommend it to friends.

Murder in the Lightning Room: A Historical MysteryMurder in the Lightning Room: A Historical Mystery by A.D. Brazeau
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book transports you to the Gilded Age and keeps a grip on you through the end! The author clearly is knowledgeable about this time period and location; these details make the pages come to life. Written in an adapted Old English style, it feels as though someone from that time period wrote it.

I have read many historical books about this period (and Nikola Tesla) both fiction and non-fiction, and this book is up there as one of my favorites. The messaging is consistent with historical figures and events, and the characters are well defined. The story is fun, engaging, and thrilling. A murder, some science, witty banter – all make for an engaging tale that I didn’t want to end! The suspects kept me guessing until the end, and wasn’t entirely what I anticipated!

I will be searching out other books by this author! Very well written.

This is one mystery book that sucked me in and did not disappoint in the story line. Clancy and Joel experiencing something traumatic as kids that followed them into adult hood. Then mixing in the war and some bad PTSD on top of their love for Lorraine.

Garrison wanting to find his family and Molly wanting to solve a crime uncovered the truth that had been hidden all these years. Also led Garrison into finding his family and Molly uncovering a hidden truth about her own.

This book was so hard to put down and not finish in one sitting. The way the story goes from past to present and linking it all up in the final few chapters.

This has to be one of the best mystery books I personally have read in awhile. One that added a few twists and then bam shocker!

Oh my goodness! This book is absolutely amazing and I could not put it down. I have to say as a general rule I am hesitant to read “brothers best friend” books but I have to say that this book definitely will have me thinking twice about avoiding them. The characters in this book were very well developed and I have to say that the plot was absolutely amazing. I love that it took what can be a very “normal” plot and made it into something that I’m not sure I will ever stop raving about. The characters are so multifaceted with dark secrets and pasts that definitely helped to develop them. I love that it has the added bonus of two characters that have known each other forever and have shared a spark since then. I truly loved Audri and Remi and was completely invested in them. I truly cannot recommend this book enough and am so glad that it is the first in a series as I definitely want to read more.

One in a Billion

Victoria is a journalist. Her career is struggling and she needs to gain access to an interview that will turn her whole career around. Her eyes are set on a billionaire, however, he is incredibly private. Seth is that billionaire in an industry that has taught him how to get what he wants. What he wants is a media advisor who happens to be Victoria. Can they both get what they want? Are they able to meet in the middle? Or are they destined to be apart.
The beginning of this story reminds me a little of the movie How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days. Not the whole premise of the book, rather just the fact that the whole thing begins with the female being not truthful at the start. Seth is definitely jaded about love when the book begins. However, the evolution of the characters and their story definitely was reminiscent. However, despite it being a familiar story arc, I really truly did love this story. Belinda Williams is an author that I have really grown to love and I especially love the Pierce Brothers stories. It was a very fast and easy read as I have grown accustomed to. I can only wait anxiously for the next book in the series. I definitely think this makes a great beach read!

This is such a lovely romance. Nadia is a nurse who has a very quick mouth or smart mouth, depending on how you look at it. She prides herself in never falling in love and just using men to suit her needs. She is definitely the queen of one night stands. Luke is a single dad with a daughter and a thriving construction company. When Nadia’s house begins to start falling apart around her, she calls the one person she trusts most in this world, Chelsea. Chelsea just so happens to be dating Luke’s brother and Luke just happens to be visiting when they come to look at Nadia’s house. Nadia doesn’t want to admit, but Luke got under her skin, but he also is the best one to help her fix up her house. Luke fully knows that he is not only smitten with Nadia, but also her house which is a fixer upper to say the least. When Luke wins the contract for her house, they know they will be spending a lot of time together, but will they be able to rekindle what they felt during that one night stand?
I love Nadia’s character and the way that she talks. I truly loved her attitude toward life. I found myself desperately hoping that Nadia and Luke would be able to figure it out because their banter might have been the best part of the book to me. I highly recommend this fun romance!

This book was such a fun story! Chelsea is a girl who is a roommate with Tom. Tom is her brother’s best friend and a paramedic. Chelsea has done nothing but date men who are absolutely awful choices. Her most recent one borrowed money from her and called it an investment. Which would mean he doesn’t have to pay her back. Chelsea’s best friend Nadia has proposed an idea… that she date a nice guy for seven days. And that nice guy just so happens to be Tom. So for seven days Tom is going to show her what it would be like to date a “nice guy.” She doesn’t know what to expect but she does know that each day is different from the next. Tom just knows that he can admit that he would like Chelsea to be more than a roommate and his friends sister. However, as the seven days move on, what he doesn’t expect is for him to discover that he isn’t ready for a relationship. He can’t admit how hurt he is by his past relationship. Will the two of them be able to get past it? Or will he manage to mess this up?
This book was a really fast read but I really enjoyed it. The characters were very relatable and I found myself rooting for Chelsea and Tom! I definitely recommend this book to everyone!

LeviLevi by Edith Mackenzie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bella thought getting her ex-boyfriend arrested would be the end of it, but while waiting for the trial, she’s hiding out as a house-keeper and nanny for the Delaney family.

Levi is an ex-Navy SEAL with a haunted past. The last thing he needs is to take care of someone else, but when a friend calls, who better to help out than a man whose loyal behind all. Now he’s stuck with Bella and finds that she gets under his skin and takes some of his demons. Unfortunately, his brothers are also under her spell.

Can Levi keep Bella safe and also keep his heart safe?

Can Bella find a way to heal Levi and herself?

Can they even survive long enough to find out?

This story was amazing! I had every intention of letting it slowly unfold over the course of a week, but once I started I couldn’t put it down. So I finished it in a day. Oops!

Levi is everything a girl wants in a wounded hero. Strong, brave, and handsome who wouldn’t want to be swept away by his pain and do everything they can to soothe his hurt and heal his heart. It’s no wonder Bella finds herself wanting to do just that.

Bella is strong willed and broken, but she’s so determined to find herself again after the trauma of her past relationship.

I feel like the only thing I would have liked to see more of would be Bella’s past in London and with Dmitri before she escaped him. This was a great read with a ton of suspense and a clean romance that burns nice and easy.

Can’t wait to read more about these Delaney brothers!
