This is the second book in the Fitz series. I was not disappointed yet again. This author has an amazing writing style. I fell in love with this series in the first book and it’s no different with the second. The author had me on the edge of my sit from the very first page of this book to the very last sentence, I was not able to put the book down until i had finished the entire thing. I highly recommend this to everyone who is over the age of 18. I’m excited to see what the author does with this series in the coming future.

This is the first book that I have read from Theresa Sederholt and I was not disappointed. This book had me on the edge of my sit the entire time and I had to finish it in one sitting. I do recommend this book to everyone. When the latest string of murders, sweeping New York City, lands on Detective Fitzgerald S. Rodriguez’s desk, the signature evidence hits too close to home. Being unable to stop the murder of his own mother has made Fitz a jaded man. Now, he will stop at nothing to protect the one he loves. I’m excited to see how the author continues this series.

This unique Alice in wonderland retelling was definitely worth the read. Full of necromancers, magic, a detective, a mythical artifact and more this story really has it all. The plot was fascinating, the characters were unique, it was overall just a perfect retelling. I have only jaut discovered this wonderful author, and if all of her books are as good as this one, then I think i have found a new favorite author.

OMG! This author has done it again! I am loving this series! This one had me laugh, love and cry throughout the telling. The characters filled me with shocking and roll on the floor laughing moments. I really could not get enough of them! Normally I enjoy the well written male but Seth got overshadowed by Victoria! She impressed me with her tenacity, strength and wit over and Over again. Both of these characters do have charm and were just as smart as they adorable! I really enjoyed them both.
Secondary characters are wonderfully built and add some levity to the story. I enjoyed meeting them all and was always wondering about that Pip.
Overall its a great addition to the series. There is one brother left and I am looking forward to his story.

This book focuses on Desiree and Jaxon. It has so much going on but it all comes together and really makes you feel so many different feelings. You will laugh, cry, and fall in love with each character. I can’t wait for the next book to see what’s next with the lives of the casket girls.

Brazeau – Review by Heather Goodman
This story really hit home. My pets are my family. I love them like children, and the author does an incredible job of bringing that love to life. A cancer diagnosis would be heart breaking for anyone to go through with anyone they care about. Reading Kingsley’s journey showed me how different the last years could have been had I known that cancer was taking my pet before it was too late. I loved the funny stories of Kingsley in his youth, and then the heartbreak a family goes through trying to make the best decision for your pet. Wonderfully written, and almost painful to read, definitely pick this up if you are looking for a true story to tug your heartstrings.

I loved this book! Romance, action, and some hot scenes. Ember is new to the firehouse, but has always had a crush on Sol, her mentor. Sol is known as a hero, but to his dismay, becoming a hero meant harming himself in a fire. He can no longer be a firefighter and he’s completely lost his sense of self. Read this book if you like a come back story, happily ever after, and really cool firefighting scenes!

This book is set in 1890. It begins in Lawrence, Massachusetts with Isabella Britta Stolt. Her parents died while they were all immigrating to the United States. Isabella took a job at a factory to support herself. In a time where young women did not live alone, she was left bereft when the factory burned down. She felt she had no choice but to become a mail order bride. She felt like she had a connection with Donald Jenks, and he came across in his letters as a sweet, loving man. Once she moved to Ohio to be with him, she discovered he was quite the opposite. He was cruel to her and had begun to get physical. She met Tom Allenby on her train ride to Ohio when he saved her from being abducted. Could Tom become her saving grace once again? I enjoyed this sweet story. It was short, easy to read, and quite enjoyable!

From the Mermaid Science Series, Wickstrom has given us another wonderful story between the characters, Fig and Maia, along with their imaginary friend, Trezzie, the mermaid. This story takes us to the exploration of one of Trezzie’s discoveries she finds of the trilobite fossil. As Maia and Fig are exploring this new fossil, they are able to examine it closely thanks to Trezzie dropping water droplets over the fossil, which helps magnify it. Now with a close magnification of the fossil, they can better associate this fossil with other creatures. This story is so entertaining in so many ways! For those fantasy fans, it is always great seeing a mermaid in a story and their interactions with humans. It is also a great learning opportunity for children readers and brings a scientific element to their everyday stories in aspects of nature exploration, scientific tools, and animal/fossil classification. Another important concept taken from this story is that the story’s fossil exploration also allows readers and educators to make further scientific discoveries within the confines of their outdoors all in a no-cost method of using one’s finger to add water droplets to your specimen. Both adults and children can be scientists in their own backyards. Remember this great hands-on activity with your children!

Unique, magical and soulful This was an endearing story filled with mystery and soul-searching. The writing draws you in and the characters well developed. There are twists and turns that kept me guessing as I turned the pages. As Roxanne navigates her emotional past, she meets Claudette who has a similar past and they form a connection. There is drama, romance and highly charged emotions. This author never disappoints, totally recommend.

Ugh, this book was sooooo good. I did not expect this to be as good as it was. This was nicely executed with the edgy sassy girl and the hunky player-athlete guy. In theory, the two shouldn’t work out but they do and it was beautiful. Bridger was undeniably hot and I was obsessed with Tia and her sassy little attitude. I loved how she stood her ground and made the rules and not him yet he did such a good job continuing to respect her rules even when he disagreed with them and wanted to break them. AND don’t get me started on the way he protected her from her ex cause, boyyyy am I a sucker for protective powerful men. This was a fun, slightly steamy fast-paced book in my opinion and I loved all of it.

The love story developed here is endearing, and the witty banter adds to the appeal. There are many concepts at which the story hits on, “I can fix him”, strong female heroine, and “tough guy with lots of layers” pretty much sums it up. It’s a good drive for the book and overall plot, but instances of the heroine rushing in to save the day and being amazing adds a stretch that seems both unrealistic in terms of the characters backstory but as an overall unrealistic feel.
Overall a good, quick read that tugs in the heart strings and leads the reader feeling satisfied with the happy ending.

Evaline is a necromancer and has dreams of being a great detective…so when a mysterious stranger shows up asking for her father’s help (which he refuses), she is determined to get to the bottom of what is going on. This leads her to the mirror world where Dr. Death’s reign is killing everything there and will soon begin spreading to London. Evaline is determined to stop them…but it requires finding the Firestone (a mythical artifact…no biggie, right?!?). With the help of her detective skills, necromancer skills, and some magic along the way, Evaline will work hard to stop Dr. Death before it is too late…will she be successful? (Hint: You have to read it to find out!)
I enjoyed this book. It follows the same storyline as Alice in Wonderland…but has witches, magic, and dead people. I found Evaline to be curious and I enjoyed following her on this adventure. It does end in a bit of a cliffhanger…so I will be looking forward to reading the next book to see what happens. Overall, a good story that I enjoyed reading.

I love a story where I can root for the underdog and The Second Alpha Heir is that type of story. Nolan was scrawny and bullied by everyone. He was never meant to be the alpha but fate has other plans. Nolan trains to fulfill the role his brother left behind. We get to see the ups and downs of Nolan on his journey. He really is a protagonist worth rooting for. His book has an interesting plot and a nice slow-burn romance. It also has a very creatively built world. I really enjoyed this story.

This was a really entertaining and enjoyable young adult fantasy. The author does a great job with the character and the world building. It is a story that really grips the reader and drags them down into an alternative world where all is not what it seems.
I really love Evaline’s character. She is a very determined young woman who is set on her goals of becoming a detective even though everyone is against the idea she pushes on and doesn’t stop. When her father turns down a chance to solve a mystery to find an ancient artifact Evaline decides to accept the mission. This leads her into an alternate world where past curses and magic await to test her. With the help of her friend and love Delbert can she solve the mystery and find the ancient artefact? Can she stop the destruction of this alternate world before it affects her world? Or will the curses that are on her family prove too much for her to overcome?

This is a well written and intriguing Thriller that keeps you hooked from beginning to end. I found myself instantly connecting with this story and wanting to find out what was going to happen. The characters were great They fit with the story so well and had an interesting connection between themselves. This is a new author to me so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The book was well thought out and the characters clearly developed and it was a thoroughly enjoyable book. I will definitely be checking out the second book in the series.

This is a quick and easy YA paranormal story that can appeal to people of most ages. The story is quick to pick uo even if you haven’t read the previous books, although it would be my recommendation to read them in order. The characters are all likeable and believable. It is easy to imagine kids of this age doing and saying the same things. I thought the author did a great job of portraying the age range and connecting with a range of audiences. This is an easy to read and likeable series that any fan of the genre worked enjoy.

I absolutely loved this story! Whilst I love romance stories with the steamy scenes sometimes it is nice to read a clean romance story and this was 100% that! I loved getting to know the characters Levi and Bella (also known as Beccy) they certainly had a love hate relationship and I just loved them together! The story may have been a little predictable but I didn’t care because I was completely swept up in the blossoming romance between the two main characters (even if they didn’t want to admit it). I knew that Levi was going to be a big softy underneath that hardened exterior and I knew Bella would be the one to break down those barriers! I also loved all of the secondary characters and I’m very excited for each other brothers to get their own stories and Little Allie was just the sweetest! She’s definitely lucky with those big brothers to look out for her! A wonderful read and one that I would highly recommend – I can’t wait for the next book! This was also a wonderful introduction to a new author!

As I loved the first book in this series I was excited to meet more of the characters and this one was Bridger and Tia’s story and it didn’t disappoint! I loved the angst that the author created between these two, they definitely had chemistry and sparks flying but it definitely wasn’t love at first sight! I really liked that Bridger wasn’t quite what I expected and I really enjoyed getting to know him in this book. I personally loved the idea of him and Tia together and I was rooting for them the whole way through. This story can easily be read as a standalone but there are crossover characters so I would recommend reading them in order – book 1 was also a great read! I will definitely be looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future.

A delightfully charming and cheeky read for a pre-teen/tween. This is the third installment in this series and while this could be read as a standalone, I recommend reading from the beginning so you can thoroughly appreciate the characters and plot. I really enjoyed Dixon’s characters and the relatable predicaments they got themselves into. I think a lot of young girls will relate to the main character, Lauren. I really enjoyed this quick read and would recommend this book to any young kiddo who enjoys ghosts, friends, and dance.

Pursuit into Darkness (War of Destiny #2) by Theresa Van Spankeren
Another great read by the author. Pursuit into Darkness is the second book in the War of Destiny Series. It follows Julia, Adam, Samuel, and the rest of the group on their journey. You will need to read book 1 before this one.
Julia is now happy with Adam although she hasn’t forgotten what Samuel has done for her. When Valentino finds where they’re at they have to flee. She loses Adam in the battle as well as herself. She turns herself into the enemy and hurts her group. The quote I chose for Julia is: “You’re wrong, Samuel. Gregory has won, I’ve turned into him. I hurt . . . kill as easily as he had. You’re so good, Samuel . . . I’m so sorry you wasted all that time and effort on the likes of me. The voices said everyone’s deaths were my fault. My ability did not work because I really wanted them dead. Stay away from me, Samuel. Stay far away, I’m not good for you.”
Samuel is coming to terms that Julia is with Adam. Coming to terms with that is easier than not remembering a lot of what has happened. That couldn’t be the worst thing that happens to him, right? You could be wrong and now he’s got to learn to trust Julia again. The quote I chose for Samuel is: “Nay. He would not say a word about it to me. Did he tell you anything?”

I was really intrigued by the synopsis for this book and I wasn’t sure that I was going to enjoy but I loved that I was pleasantly surprised. The story was really easy to follow and I really liked the characters. When I first started the story I actually wasn’t aware it wasn’t the first book in the series and I think although I would have had a better understanding of some of the things going on had I read the previous two books I was quite happy reading it as a standalone however I would like to read the first two also as this was a great read. The characters were really likeable and relatable – I think it was easy to imagine yourself as a student at the ballet school. I think this would definitely be a great series for younger readers but I also really enjoyed it as an adult!

Lost Soul (War of Destiny #1) by Theresa Van Spankeren
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Lost Soul is the first book in the War of Destiny Series. I recommend getting all the books available because it will be hard to put it down. I didn’t want to stop and I loved this book.
Julianna (aka Julia aka Sunshine) grows up close with Adam, her brother and her sister. When the time comes for her to be married off she is. Then her husband becomes violent and she is a victim of abuse. She has a baby, but it’s not the son he wants. She is found by a vampire, but will she want that? The quote I chose for Julia is: “Stop calling me Sunshine, Sammy. And yes, I can stand on my own. Though I could use some help walking.”
Samuel is a friend of Julia’s brother-in-law. Her younger sister is worried for her and the baby. Can Samuel help her? Will he be able to save her in time? Will he be able to gain her trust and help her learn to love again? The quote I chose for Samuel is: “Do not worry, Julia. He’s probably killed many an innocent during his robberies.”

Body Checked: A Frenemies-to-Lovers Hockey Romance (Astoria Bay Thunder #2) by CJ Cartwright
This is another great read by the author. So far both books I’ve read in the Astoria Bay Thunder Series are my favorite. If you’ve read book 1 the beginning will make sense. If you didn’t it’s okay you can always go back and read it. This is a standalone.
Bridger is the playboy of the group. Meeting Tia and having a manager that requires a background check and an NDA is hard. He likes Tia, but isn’t sure what she wants from him. Can he win her over? The quote I chose for Bridger is: “Tia. Babe. You’re safe. I will not hurt you. I’m going to fall asleep next to you and probably dream of your gorgeous p**** and then we’re going to wake up and keep working on the photoshoot. You can relax.”
Tia doesn’t expect to find herself falling for Bridger, but she does. She doesn’t think her bestie knows what she’s doing asking her to be an assistant. She doesn’t know what she’s gotten herself into. Can she let her guard down for him? The quote I chose for Tia is: “Rule #1 is the most important rule. You can’t fall in love with me. There can be absolutely no feelings. Do you understand me?”
Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.
Body Checked (Astoria Bay Thunder Book 2) by CJ Cartwright. This is the second book in the Astoria Bay Thunder series and I loved it. Its the story of Bridger who is a playboy hockey player. Sounds like a dream huh! When he meets Tia who is put in charge of their photo shoot. Their attraction is immediate. Tia knows Bridger’s reputation and knows that he’s nothing but a good time. His reputation is so bad that he is about to get in trouble with the team so he’s trying to calm down a bit but he can’t control his attraction to Tia. They finally agree on a wild weekend but no feelings. What Bridger doesn’t account for is he’s obsessed with Tia. He can’t get her off his mind. He even thinks maybe she is the one.

Love is Worth Fighting for (The Meraki Series Book 3) by Effie Kammenou. This is such a good frenemies romance. It’s Krystina’s story and she is beating herself up for falling in love with the boy who has been a pain in her butt for years. Loukas (Luke) has been in love with Krystina for as long as he remember. Krystina writes a blog and all she wants to do is travel the world and promote her blog and become famous on Instagram. With Luke following her all around (he’s working with her) its not turning out as fun as she thought. He’s always been right under her feet driving her crazy. As they spend more and more time together and she sees him helping her in her search for her grandfather she sees a new side of him. Will they be able to make a relationship work and will she be able to get the answers she needs about her grandfather? This is one of my favorites in the series!

I thoroughly enjoyed this gripping crime thriller, which had me hooked from start to finish. The main character, Clayton Conway is an ex-cop who has made some mistakes and is now working at a repo company. Clayton is concentrating on raising his daughter and keeping friendly with her mother, his ex-wife. He’s renting a small apartment over a bar in Jacksonville Beach, and is happy if he makes enough money to pay his rent. Thinking he had left his dangerous life behind him, along with being a cop, Clayton gets mixed up with the Orenato Cartel, when one of their speedboats is repossessed. Clayton realises that it’s not just him who’s in danger but also his family and friends, and he’s determined to protect them, as long as his own weaknesses don’t get the better of him, again. Full of drama and suspense this was an entertaining and engaging read, with a great main character in Clayton, who’s both likeable and relatable, whilst also being realistic. I found it hard to put this book down once I had started it and I am now looking forward to the next book in the series.

This is the 4th book in a multi-author series set around Firehouse 13. I have read several of this author’s books so far and have always enjoyed them so was happy to read more of her work. I was also interested by the blurb so it was a no brainer for me to read this book. I really enjoyed Ember and Sol’s story. Sol is a retired firefighter, having sustained an injury in a fire which left him unable to continue in the role. Ember is a relatively new firefighter who had had Sol as her mentor and had always had a bit of a crush on him. As Sol slips into an alcohol fueled depression due to his enforced retirement, it’s Ember who helps him through this hard point in his life. This is a great friends to lovers romance with the added grit of seeing Sol struggle through this particularly hard time. I did find the writing a bit disjointed (is that the right term?) and it didn’t flow as well as the other books by this author but I loved the characters and the storyline so still enjoyed the book.
