My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a truly wonderful and touching story. The characters were very connectable, and my emotions of my own heart were all over the place as I read. It was beautiful to read, and I really felt everything for the characters that molded together as I read. Amazing writing as well! Sensational read!

The book was realistic and had excellent character development. You connect with the characters so well, if you love them hate them, or even question their motives. The more I read, the more I fell for the words of the characters. I know in life when something seems to be going right there’s that card that gets played that could change everything. And its up to the people to work through it. This book was full of light and hope. A passion that seemed fulfilled at every turn. Loved the story and writing!

Could not get enough of this wonderful book. I cried, laughed, so much as I read. Highly recommend this must-read book. Look forward to more works by this wonderful author, they have a true gift for writing.

Ballet School Rumours (Amberwood Hall Ballet School Adventure Book 3) by Eleanor Dixon – Review by Karen Pearman

Ballet School Rumours: An Amberwood Hall Ballet School AdventureBallet School Rumours: An Amberwood Hall Ballet School Adventure by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book three in this wonderful series of a world of dancing paranormal ghosts. Once again, the author made me laugh from all the angst going on in this school. It’s no different than typical high school and made me think about some of the gossip years I experienced myself and the drama that created. I think the author does an amazing job with these books and can provide some valuable lessons in the process. I think that it’s a perfect read for young teens, but I have thoroughly enjoyed these books as well. While this could be a stand-alone book I do feel like it would be best to read the entire series to get the most benefit from the life lessons she is preparing our young girls for.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This story is told basically day by day for the first and second half. I really struggled with that. It just became boring to me reading about the mundane everyday life stuff. I wish it had moved along at a better clip. I really enjoyed the idea of the story. The coincidences these two have and how they met are intriguing and deserve a story. The characters are built nicely but I did not love them. The connection just got overridden by the storyline. His family is a dream! I enjoyed them all and they added some fun to the story.

I did love that cover which is what made me give this one a shot.

Oh my goodness, heartwarmer and tearjerker all in one. I love this story. Kat feels a sense of déjà vu, even in the guy she meets (TJ). She is pregnant and a surprise delivery brings TJ into her life. This story will bring out all the emotions as they work through their baggage. They are drawn to each other but don’t know why. Could it be reincarnation? The sense of déjà vu floats through the whole book. The characters are wonderful. TJ’s family is so accepting and feel just like a wonderful family next door. The sisters are characters. Ginny, Penny and Lydia kept me entertained. The plot was so beautiful and smooth, not a chunky mess. A beautiful romance. A second-chance, contemporary romance that everyone should read. I would give it more than 5 star review if I could.

Sensitive topics are addressed that may be a trigger for some readers.

Key To His Heart is sweet and heart-warming and was inspired by true events which makes the story even more interesting. It is a fantastic and touching story that captivated me from start to finish. I was fully invested in these intriguing complex characters and their stories. There are so many emotions and never a dull moment as the story progresses and reaching straight to your soul.

With plenty of drama, angst, passion, compassion and healing it has something for every romance lover. It is told in dual POV. This contemporary romance showcases deeply woven connections between our MC’s that are hot and sizzling and certainly seemed to be written in the stars.

Katrina is hurt and trying for a new start in a small town where no one knows her and her secret.

TJ is at that time in his life when he wants a family and kids. He finds the beautiful soul meant for him his soul mate. But he starts to wonder when things go awry.

Ballet School Rumours is the third book in the Amberwood Hall Ballet School Adventure Series and I absolutely loved reading it. This is a Paranormal Children’s story that I couldn’t get enough of. This is recommended for ages 8 and up but I think anyone can enjoy reading it.This may be a short story but its packed with adventure, drama, ghosts and friendship and more. This authors style of writing along with her creative characters and attention to detail makes for an amazing story. What will happen when rumours start to fly after an online gossip column is started? There is rumoured to be supernatural presence at Amberwood Hall. Lauren is worried about her ghost friends Grace and Rodney. Will Lauren loose a friend over wicked whispers? Will friendships be lost? I highly recommend reading this cute story to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Pagie and Mark. This book is quite slow and gradually get into the story. At times it feels like the connection between the characters is forced there intreactons don’t flow well. However the romance is sweet once you get to it. Darci Garcia done great on the Historical aspect of this book. I feel like the characters and story could of had more of a punch than it had.

Well wow, what can I say. I truly enjoy these books. Tj and Kat are both very etching and the addition of TJs extended family, adds another dimension to the book. Kat having Toby was an amazing start and not how I expected this story to start with a divorce. The interaction between Kat and TJs family is that of a nature where you feel a connected bond. I love Kat’s art style and the addition of the vision of love made me think of these two as the ultimate soul mates.

What happens in Oasis, stays in Oasis.
Lisette’s father killed the King. His execution leaves Lisette alone, disgraced, and without the magic he intended to pass on to her. In Oasis, that’s a problem. Glutted with enchanted performers, Oasis is a sin city where courtiers pay in gold to drink, gamble, and above all, be entertained. To survive on its competitive streets, Lisette peddles paltry illusions in place of magic.
Desperate to prove herself, Lisette enters into a deadly competition to be chosen as the highest-ranked magician in the world, the Queen’s Jester. But her rival, the irritatingly handsome Luc, possesses the one thing Lisette does not―real magic. Lisette will do anything to win, but when evidence implicating the Queen in her husband’s murder surfaces, Lisette must choose between redeeming her family name, or seizing the fame she’s hungered for her entire life.

Katrina

My best friend is my head. It keeps all my secrets.

Everything I’ve seen and heard in my loveless past makes sense now, and it’s led me to TJ. The faceless man I conjured in my mind. The missing puzzle piece.

I wasn’t prepared for sparks to fly, filling my life with endless love, comfort, and safety. TJ, Toby, and I are inseparable, like a genuine family. The old me is long gone. Or so I thought.

Right after I confess my love to TJ, I tumble into the black hole of hell. My perfect façade begins to crumble, and I can’t mask it anymore. Once TJ sees between the cracks, he’ll leave Toby and me, just like everyone else has. I’m a survivor, but losing him will destroy me.

TJ

When I love, I love big, and it’s my worst downfall.

After I burst through a stranger’s door, Katrina and her newborn son, Toby, are pushed into my world. My hopeful soul whispers to me that we’re meant to be together. Can I trust it, though?

On the best night of my life, the beautiful woman I gave my heart to isn’t the same one who’s kicking me out of her house right now.

My family says it’s just a phase, and I’m trying to be patient. But her unpredictable mixed signals weigh heavily on my chest. Will my heart be shattered into a million pieces again?

Katrina owns the key to my heart, and she’s the only one who can unlock it.

***This book was inspired by real-life events, but takes place in a fictional world. It features a lovable ex-NFL player turned chemistry teacher, and a single mom who’s never felt loved. It’s an intense single parent, emotionally explosive story, filled with swoony times and sweet baby moments. HEA guaranteed. Sensitive topics are addressed that may be triggering for some readers.

Truth or Kill (Twisted Legends Collection, #2)Truth or Kill by A.C. Kramer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sydney wasn’t even supposed to be a part of the game, she was invited as a plus one at the last moment. Was there an ominous reason behind her invitation or did her aquaintance/former teammate Becca really just want her to distract Landon? Kage, Judge and Loki invited this particular set of people to play a game: Truth or Kill. Only they seem to know everyone’s deepest, darkest secrets and they intend to expose them all. This game of blackmail turns deadly and there are many players. Will the true killer or killers be found out before the game is over or will there be no survivors? This book was… I’m not even sure there are words to describe my feelings on this one. It was really a great read! I really would like to know how the author came up with the concept for this book and then brought it to life. Pick up your copy of Truth or Kill and go along for the journey, you will not be disappointed.

Such an amazing historical romance! I was so eager to read it the moment it hit my kindle, and I was very happy I did.
Isabel and Sir William were so good together. The journey from strangers to man and wife was delightful. Their love was a breath of fresh air and the way they overcame the insecurities and differences for the good of their people show the union was meant to be. It was more than just a knight and his wife, but truly a love for the ages.

If I had to get straight to the point about this book and in just one sentence describe it, I would say that it is a highly entertaining, querky Paranormal romance that keeps you interested from start to finish. But since when do I get straight to the point! LOL. I really enjoyed all elements of this book from the wonderful characters, some you love and some you hate, to the storyline filled with both heart and laughter. I will definitely be going back and reading book 1 then reading book 2 again as I believe it will further enhance my enjoyment of the series. This author definitely has a new fan in me.

I always love a well written slow burn novel, and this one did not disappoint! I loved Nicco and Destiny, they had really great chemistry from the start. She is a little gun shy because she is afraid of putting herself back out there and getting hurt, and he is a up and coming playboy actor and musician. Italy is known for love and romance, and being Italian you would think that he would be ready to fall in love with a woman but past heartbreaks have left him a little jaded and weary of women. Can Destiny change his mind and his heart, or is it a lost cause?

This was a fantastic read! I haven’t read Belinda Williams before but this was a great series to start with!
Belinda allows readers to feel like they are living the story with the characters. The characters are well written and relate to someone we all know! Its easy to get attached, pick sides and live vicariously through each character.
Chelsea is that girl we all know. Bad boys are her style and she doesn’t understand why each one is worse than the last.
Tom is the nice guy that everyone is friends with but never really sees. He’s the genuine nice guy.
So what happens when a friends suggests the nice guy show Chelsea what she’s missing?!? Belinda takes us through every step of the story and leaves us wanting more!

Imagine being chosen to go live on a island, pretty much inside of a huge dome, because the water around the entire world is contaminated and people are dying. Intense and scary right? I wouldn’t make it lol. But reading the hardships and the struggles..I just couldn’t imagine. This is definitely a page turner. A few surprises but I won’t say what, because I don’t want to spoil anything. I’ll definitely be checking out more books by this author!

This was the perfect summertime romance to pass the afternoon with! This was a wonderful small town contemporary romance following the story of up-and-coming pop star Kiki Ramirez and her Mayor boyfriend Eric. The story pulls you in from the very beginning as the couple faces a hurdle in the relationship. I loved watching their relationship grow despite it, the realisticness of the story made it that much more enjoyable. I haven’t read any stories by this author before, but she has a fantastic writing style, with great attention to detail and the ability to suck the reader in from the very beginning. I can’t wait to read more by her in the future!

We’ve all been there at some point in our lives… A fan girl. Having a famous idol as a crush. The story starts out with our girl Destiny meeting her idol/crush, and it’s a whirlwind story from there. What I liked most about this book is that both characters are flawed. In most books that I’ve read it’s usually one flawed character being saved by the other not so flawed character. However as I mentioned both of them are flawed and they have to dig deep to get to the root cause of their issues, and basically save themselves. One thing Is for sure I do wish that Destiny had a little bit more self-confidence in herself. Overall it was a slow and steady burn kind of story. There was great character growth and development, and an HEA in the end!

This is my first book by this author and I loved this story of Evan and Callie. The raw emotion between Evan and Callie feels so real.

Evan…newly retired from the NHL heads to Bellevue and become an athletic trainer for the woman’s gymnastics team. Focusing on himself and his mental health…trying to become the best version of himself…little did he know when meeting Callie how this chance encounter could forever change him. Callie is so strong, driven and smart .. but loves with all her might. She falls for Evan and is always is in his corner when he struggles. Can Evan and Callie overcome the obstacles that come their way?

This story really gives you so much…and it feels like everyday real life in so many ways that I can relate to. This story has love and hope but also the pain and anxiety when mental health is in question. Fantastic book

All the big heart feels!

Leona, the owner of the Happily Ever After Bookstore, sells books and “contributes” to the happily ever afters of those that visit her store.

This is an adorable story of love and loss, sadness and joy, coincidence and fate. The main characters were so sweet and thought out well. The small town vibes just added more soul to the feel good atmosphere of the book. I really enjoyed the way the writing style took you on the characters journey and the short chapter layout had me telling myself “just one more”!

If you need a book that will make you smile with your heart & clutch your chest with hope then this is a must read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an amazing book that left me on the edge of my seat needing to know what happens next. I laughed, I was brought to tears, I became angry at what they had to endure, pretty much I was a hot mess for this entire book but I would recommend it to everyone!

Mia, our female main character/champion if you will, has not had an easy time of things. After being tortured, left for dead, then found and forced to fight other beings to earn credits and glory for her captor. Trust doesn;t come easy, she is bitter and unaffected just fighting to stay alive until partnered with someone she can’t sit idly by and watch die. This may turn out to be her saving grace after all her future is unpredictable. Enter Castor who makes a deal with Throl to earn Mia’s freedom, but what Throl has in mind ensures little chance of survival for either of them. As they must now fight as a team, feelings build and they learn they are soul mates not yet bonded but the more they are together the stronger the bond becomes. Can Mia learn to trust Castor when all past experiences have led to heartache and pain? Can they work through their own pasts and beliefs to not only make it out of these trials alive but potentially build a future? Lastly, can they make it out alive to even have a chance at a future?

This book is a must read to answer all these questions and more. There are so many twists and turns in this book including characters you hate and then something changes and you might hate them a little less. If you like romance novels with a hunger game-like twist then this book is right up your alley. It doesn’t even seem like five stars could ever be enough for this good of a book, I am in awe of what this author produced and now must venture out to see what other gems they have produced.

Levi by Edith Mackenzie
5 out of 5 stars

Levi, former Navy SEAL, struggling to come back to the states after giving his life to his country. Bella, or was it Beccy, feeling lonesome struggling to handle a new life, a new job, and possibly a new love? Follow as both the new main characters adjust to new people and new lifestyles. As they learn more about themselves than they ever have before.

Edith did a wonderful job and I can easily give this book 5 out of 5 stars. From the storyline, to characters you can easily fall in love with, to her writing style. Everything absolutely fantastic. Being a farmer, I want to give Edith credit for her knowledge on horses, the ranch life and everything in between. Whether Edith runs a ranch or studied up, she really knew what she was writing about, and I really appreciate seeing the effort she put in. I absolutely loved reading this book, and it was a wonderful short read, with a happy ending.

I can’t really ask for more detail because that would take away the sweet short styled book. But if this book was ever given more detail, or another book added to the series, I would love to see more detail about Levi and Bella’s past, along with more detailed stories on how their romance developed.

I absolutely love this book and I cannot wait to read the next books in the series, to really get to know the rest of the triplets. Also, see little Allie grow up!

Thank you Edith for a wonderful book!

This was a wonderfully written for young adult girls, especially ones that are interested in or already taking dance classes. The author has put so much into this story that I didn’t want to put it down. It does include some paranormal activity and characters which make the book even more interesting. When considering this book, think Hogwarts School of Magic but a school of dance. This contained a lot of laughs, tears, bullies, and close-knit friendships. Most of all it contains a wonder life lesson that all females need to learn. Especially our young females. We need more books like this. I highly recommend that you get this book for your kids. They will enjoy it.

Battling crippling anxiety is not easy. Evan gives up his job in the NHL in order to save his mental health. He returns to college and takes on two jobs. The first as an RA for the school’s hockey team. The second job is as a trainer for the girls gymnastics team.
On day one on campus, he meets Callie, a gymnast, and is intrigued by her. They actually have met before but he doesn’t remember. Even though he plans on staying single and focusing on his mental health, he cannot stay away from her.
Opinion
I love this series. Hockey romances speak to me and this one is a fabulous read. Add in the sweet innocence of their love and this book is a solid winner. The struggles in this book are a bit different than what I’ve read before, especially Callie’s family struggles. It was quite intriguing. Altogether, the book was fabulous.

Paige and the Reluctant ArtistPaige and the Reluctant Artist by Darci Garcia
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a heart-warming contemporary romance by an author that was new to me. From reading the blurb it seemed like the type of book I normally enjoy reading, so I decided to give this author a chance. I’m glad I took the chance as I enjoyed this book and would definitely read more of this author’s work.
Paige Lister is mesmerised by the artwork of painter Mark Richards and decides to go visit him in Montana to convince him to produce work for the gallery she works at. What she wasn’t prepared for was to fall for the sexy, brooding artist and his lifestyle in Montana.
Mark Richards is determined that painting is just a hobby while he works on his ranch rescuing horses. He wasn’t prepared for the whirlwind that is Paige Lister.
I really enjoyed reading Paige and Mark’s story. It’s pretty much lust at first sight for both of them but how could they possibly make a relationship worth with the very different lives they both lead? This makes for a very interesting story that had me wanting to keep turning the page and reading more. The characters are very well written and the story flows well keeping you engaged throughout.
I’d definitely recommend this book.
