I’m not going to lie when I first got this book. I didn’t read the whole title, I just looked at the photo🤣. So when i was reading i was surprised to see it was MM. Not my usual cup of tea, but I found it to be a really really good read.I loved the different take on the Romeo and Juliet. The supernatural aspect makes the retelling even better😍.I’m looking forward to reading Messenger, the next installment of Star-Crossed Celestials series.
This book had some really different twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I was not expecting the love between the two guys, it was a little unexpected, consisting of that it’s so normal to read about a man and women but not two men, and honestly it was so amazing to read. not only were the characters well written that I found it hard not to fall in love with these two that their story was just as good. Lots of things happened that really kept me hooked on this book. This author wrote an incredible book all around, that really was entertaining and enjoyable. This paranormal, action, love, LGBT, and revenge book is a total must read.

Morrow – Review by Jennifer Reimer
What would you do if you had 6 months’ worth of memories just gone? Nightmares that kept you at bay from remembering all the events from just one night. Not remembering the person, you fell in love with. The haunting dreams of seeing someone die over and over, but not being able to put a name to the face that visits you in those dreams. Think of the one who does remember. Living each day knowing that horrific night changed your entire life. Going on thinking that the love of your life HATES YOU and BLAMES YOU for what happened, when in reality, they lost every single memory of you.

Lisette grew up under the shadow of a father who was labeled a traitor after killing the king. When he is put to death before he could pass on his magic to Lisette, she feels the loss ten times over because she lives in Oasis- where magic rules. As she perfects sleight of hand that LOOKS like magic, she decides to enter into a competition to compete for the position of Jester to the Queen. However, her biggest competitor, Luc, has REAL magic. Lisette realizes very quickly that she will do anything to gain magic and fame. The farther she makes it, the more she has to lose, though. When she is approached with information concerning the death of the king not being at the hand of her father, everything changes. Can she trust the source of this information? Could it be true? Will the cost of the truth be her undoing?
I really enjoyed reading this story. It follows a girl that wants to be recognized as the best because she feels like she’s never been good enough. In her pursuit of being the best, she begins to make friends in places that she doesn’t expect. In the end, she realizes what is worth keeping and what is worth letting go. Her path isn’t easy, and she doesn’t always pick the right choice, but the ending is perfect!

Eliza is an American who is traveling to England for the very first time. She’s headed there to meet her family, some of whom she has never met. From the beginning, it is clear that there is mystery surrounding the Darcy Family. He father NEVER talks about them and she has never met most of them. But she is invited to a family reunion and she would love to meet them. She’s a girl who isn’t used to excitement. In fact, she is planning on packing her wool socks instead of her pretty underclothes. She can’t even tell you the last time that she needed pretty underthings. On the plane, it seems that she may have misread the situation. From the second she enters the airport, she meets an amazing man. He happens to end up in the seat next to her on the plane. They hit it off immediately and sparks are flying. On top of being cute he also has an amazing personality. Despite Eliza’s intentions for the reunion, things take a very different turn. A dead body definitely has different plan for her. When the investigation proves to have clues that may reveal the reason her father no longer speaks to his family and mystery surrounds them, Elize finds herself wanting to help with the investigation. Eliza has always had a love of Agatha Christie novels and she is optimistic to put her learned skills to use. Soon more and more clues appear that show that there are more bodies around. She needs the help of her aunt and that man from the plane to help keep herself from being the next body that is discovered. This book was really really good. I loved the banter between Heath (the man from the plane) and Eliza. It definitely kept me guessing as I read.

I really enjoyed this story! It has all the elements of a great read! Memorable and unique characters, a gorgeous backdrop, witty conversations and I loved that the main crew works at a Repo business! They see the different side of life. The story is fast paced and always has something going on. This is my first book by this author. I was captured by the beginning and held on tight until that last chapter. This is loaded with action, suspense and drama. It is a wonderful start to this series. I look forward to reading more of the adventures of these guys.

This is the 4th book in the Popov Bratva series. These books can be read as a standalone however since I’ve read this one I definately want to go back and read the rest of the books in this series. This story is a perfect mix of danger and Suspense teamed up with characters who have a love/hate relationship but the chemistry between them is so hot you just know one or both of them are going to get burnt.
This story is about Dom and Leah. Dom is a Mafia Prince who’s job is acquiring things for people. These things are something not obtained in a legal way but he’s never not completed the job. The is until he meets Leah. When he tried to steal her car, Leah’s fiesty attitudes makes her fight to stop him from stealing her car. Not wanting to get caught Dom does the only thing he can think of. Kidnap Leah and steal the car. But Dom didn’t really think it all the way through and when it turns out Leah is a famous singer, the simple kidnapping becomes a whole lot more trickier. Add to this the secrets that Leah’s past holds and the unmistakable attraction between Dom and Leah and this is one story that will keep you hooked.
How can a singer destroy the career of this Mafia prince? Would she turn him in if he let’s her go? Would it be so bad to keep her beside him forever? And is he wanting to keep her so she doesn’t go to the police or is there something more between them that makes their connection hard to ignore.
This book has so many twists and turns that you never know what to expect you just have to hang on for the ride.
Jester is a fun dark and twisted tale. Imagine falling down a hole in a city that is more sinful than sin city, outrageously ostentatious, blindingly entertaining and certainly deadly and definitely twisted. This story is unique, fun and entertaining with secrets and lies, magic and corruption, political intrigue and a deadly competition. Add in a romance between enemy to lovers and you have a wild ride.
Lisette wants magic and to win so badly she can taste it. She longs to be the best but what would she do if things turn deadly?
Jester is Brielle’s debut novel and it will be interesting to see what she does next.

What a unique and interesting take on Romeo and Juliet – and a much better version in my opinion. Jace and Cyrus are simply amazing. I loved them individually, and their characters, and I loved the connection that was so easy to see between them. Despite everything being against them I desperately wanted them to find a way. The story itself is exciting and well written. Although I knew it was based on Romeo and Juliet it definitely does not live in its shadows. This is a real page turned and I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book!
Enemies to lovers are some of my favourite books and this one is right up there with the best of them! I thought the characters were a perfect match for each other and the attraction between was real and believable. The connection they had was not only strong but I thought, at times, highly entertaining. They pushed each other really made me buy into them. I loved the pace of the book. I thought it was so easy to get into and it kept my interest from start to finish. The author has created a strong series that, right now, I can’t get enough of. This is an amazing book and I can’t wait to finish the others.
What a beautiful story! Katrina and TJ’s journey to their happy ever after was truly stunning. The alternating points of view are such a wonderful way to tell a story, seeing from the main character’s eyes and truly understanding their take through their trials. Their story was one that has been told before, in reality, and was fabulously illustrated and wonderfully realistic and relevant. If you enjoy modern romance stories with a happy ever after, this is definitely an amazing choice!

Life-shattering news sent her boyfriend AWOL, so Marissa Sinclair is painting her way past heartbreak. After earning an art degree and opening a gallery, Marissa is determined to make her life a masterpiece.
Desperate to escape his grief, Weston Stambro flees to the States. During a high-stakes poker game he wins a small condom manufacturing plant. With no stiff competition, he grows the factory into a medium, then large, and finally into an extra-large money-maker. Now he’s a billionaire with a seemingly perfect life.
Then someone offers a ridiculous wad of money for his mom’s boutique. Shock and confused, she begs for Weston’s advice. Without hesitation, he points his yacht toward Postscript Island. But he wishes he’d brought protection for his heart.
Will Marissa and Weston whitewash their past and paint a new picture?
Tropical Date is a steamy, standalone romantic comedy. A guaranteed sweet HEA and is the second book in the Postscript Island series.
Jester by Brielle D. Porter is one of the best books I have read this year- or ever! It is such a fresh, original, and fun story- a fantastic fantasy with a little bit of a darker tone, plenty of mysteriousness, magic, dramatic developments, rivalry, revenge, danger, obsession, illusions, intrigue, interesting complex characters, stellar world-building, murder, politics, agendas, adventure, family dynamics/drama, humour, romance, emotion, and sooo much more. I am so impressed with this book- even more so when I discovered that it is the author’s debut novel! Way to go to stamp your mark as an author! First time up to the base and Ms. Porter has hit it out of the park!!! If this is what she can do as her debut- I CAN. NOT. WAIT. to see where we will go from here! I am excited to find such a talented author to add to my MUST-READ author list! I can not recommend this book highly enough- if you love well-woven fantasy that provides an immersive experience in the form of a rich, vibrant, and exciting story- then you will definitely want to get your hands on this book- STAT! I don’t want to go into the story in too much detail, as I really don’t want to spoil it for you. The blurb does a better job of whetting the appetite for what to expect, than I would, without giving too much away. I recommend going into the story a little blind and letting the author and the story surprise you- in the best possible way! I loved Lisette (Mirage) and Luc… their rivalry really added to the overall feel and excitement of the storyline. I was so invested in them and the outcome of the story that I stayed glued to the pages the whole way through- reading the whole book in one sitting, just so I could find out how everything played out in the end. LOVE. LOVE. LOVE this book. I can’t wait to get my hands on Ms. Porter’s next book- my mind is whirling with possibilities! Ms. Porter is definitely an author to watch out for, as I can see great things in her future! Must Read! If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would!

Goddess of Everything is jam packed full of magical realism, horror, suspense and religious ferver. DeBlassie brings the desert of New Mexico alive in the mind of the reader. His judicious use of metaphorical writing brings the characters and setting to life in the story. This is a beautifully written psychological thriller and I couldn’t put it down! I look forward to more work by this author! Reviewed by @bilberrysweet Brandy Vaughn, August 2022 View all my reviews

4/5 Stars This was my first read by this author and at the beginning I was so confused because it dives in to such an attraction between Kat & TJ. After reading for a bit it all started making sense, but I wish the intensity wasn’t so intense right at the start of the book. Once I got into the book, it was actually a good book. The characters are lovable & the storyline is so cute.

This is a modern day reunion of sorts for Jane Austen’s Darcy family. Eliza is going to London to meet up with her cousin. It’s been several years since they’ve seen each other and Eliza has always wanted to go and see her “homeland”. What she doesn’t know is all the adventure and excitement that awaits her upon her arrival. Actually, all the excitement begins at the airport when she runs into this gorgeous man named Heath, who ends up sitting next to her on the plane. Her time with her family is rather enlightening and many family secrets are learned, while others are still a mystery.
I rather enjoyed this book and I must admit, I’ve never read Pride and Prejudice. I know, such a failure on my part!! I love how this book includes segments of that story though. I’ve always been interested in it, I’ve just never taken the time to actually read it. Now I have even more motivation to go back and read a great classic.

This was a great 5 star read. My emotions were all over the place, once I started I didn’t want to put it down. I really enjoyed Katrina and TJ’s story, they were the sweetest couple. Katrina is a single mom starting over in a new town. TJ has returned to his hometown and is a coach for his former high school. Fate steps in and these two meet and lets just say sparks flew. This story takes off from here and I loved it.
Will TJ and Katrina get a HEA?
Overall this was a great read that pulls all your heart strings. I instantly fell for this couple, I think they are one of my top favorites. There is so much more to this great read, I don’t want to give anything away. The author did a great job with her writing.

Peg finds that he is longing for love. Darcy wants to prove that she is just as strong as one of the guys. Can the two find love? Darcy’s roommate turns into her wrist nightmare; Peg becomes her knight in shining armor. I really enjoyed watching the continued growth of the Satan’s Devils and this was no different. Peg really showed his caring side and showed that real men do have feelings and aren’t afraid to show it. Darcy is a strong woman who knows what she wants and provides a nice contrast to the subservient women previously introduced in the books. The story was filled with quite a bit of action but there was a lot of little intense moments versus one big problem taking place. Overall, a really great book where I found myself laughing, crying, getting angry, and then oh so happy.

Be prepared for this book to hit you in the feels. I personally wasn’t prepared for a book that so much related what I was going through and I try to stay away from those kind of books however this one was good. Each character is well developed and important to the story! The chemistry the between the characters can be felt off the pages and readers never want the story to end!

This book was so much fun to read as I dream up a relationship like this one. I think the best part is that the author digs right in with character building! I fell in love with both characters instantly and couldn’t wait for the happy ever after! Well, then the book takes a twisty turn and at the end of this book I was in shock at the secrets and the ending!

This was a great 5 star read. I am really loving this series. I really liked Mia and Nico’s story. Mia was a very strong character and when she needed help she went to Nico. Nico is smart and a very dangerous man, he is intrigued by Mia and agrees to help her.
What will happen when her father finds out what she has done? Will Nico be able to protect her?
Overall this was a thrilling edge of your seat read. It felt like there were several stories in one. Several twists and turns and a great cast of secondary characters.

This book is based in Greek Mythology, the story of dragons and their slayers. The story is that the dragonslayer will not be a complete person until they slay their dragons. By slaying one’s dragon, they release their soul into themselves in order to live their complete, fulfilled life. One night, dragonslayer Apollo, aka Saxton, meets a woman named Orelle, in a club. Her dancing and scent intoxicates him and he is immediately attracted and doesn’t understand why. Orelle, is a dragon disguised in her human form. The two of them have a mutual attraction, but Orelle is not supposed to be out amongst the crowds. However, the two of them keep finding each other and finally give in to their whims of sexual attraction. Each of them, though, are keeping many secrets. How long can these secrets stay hidden? Will they figure out why the attraction is there, and if they do, what does that mean since they are mortal enemies?
Overall, I thought this book was okay. I like the idea of the story and the Greek Mythology behind it. I thought that the characters were interesting. Orelle, I liked her ambition and straight-forward aspects. With Saxton, he was extremely straight-forward which I don’t normally have issues with, but I found it unattractive in this character. I think a lot of that comes from the wording that the author uses. There were times where I just thought the wording was cringy, and I like dirty talk, etc. He did grow on me toward the end of the story, however. I also didn’t really like the narrator of the audiobook, he sounded Scottish. This could be a big reason why I thought that the book was just okay. The accent was pretty thick so I, at times, lost interest in the story.

You want a book that hits you in all the right places of the heart then one click this one. From the first chapter I knew I was in for a great read. Evan and Callie are totally going to steal every bit of your heart trust me and you’ll give it over willingly. The absolute only downside to this story was that it had to end but I’d read it over and over again easily. The characters are complex and relatable, issues that real people have to deal with on a daily basis are discussed and while not always easy the author does a wonderful job at it. I’d give more stars if possible but just know it’s even bit as amazing as the five stars I’m giving it. Highly recommended!

Rivals is the seventh book in the Mafia Elite series, which tells the story of the five mafia families based in Chicago. It’s an addictive series, full of romance and action but also family, friendship and warmth.
Rivals focuses on Nico, who New York mafia princess Mia identifies as her best hope at escaping from the plans her father and step brother have for her. Mia gets Nico’s protection, and that of his family, while Nico gets information that could enable him to bring down her family’s human trafficking operation.
There are plenty of secrets and twists and turns along the way, some quite unexpected! Mia has much to learn about her past and family, whilst also being used to the very different dynamic of her new family.
I’d recommend reading the books in order – each focuses on a different couple but the stories lead into one another and characters develop as you go along. And where some of the books bring in a character who is new to the mafia so you can learn some of the background from their perspective, Mia already knows or at least knows of most of the main characters and their stories.
This is a five star read for me! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and can’t wait to read more from this author.

This story brought me to my knees in all the most amazing ways. I’m just going to start off by saying five stars all the way. Have you ever sat down with a book that captures all of your heart? Because that’s exactly what TJ and Katrina did to me. Each character was so very easy to connect with and you just couldn’t help but love them and their story. The author is amazing with detailed information and a story that keeps you so drawn in you tend to forget the outside world. That was completely fine by me. I’ll definitely be missing these characters and will have to reread their story eventually again. Again five stars well deserved!

I absolutely loved reading this book. I was amazed at the well written words and the enticing storyline, and all of the emotions that it made me feel. Katrina is a survivor and going into her past just made me want to hold her and tell her that everything was going to be okay. TJ is an amazing man that does wonders for Katrina. When she feels weak he is right there to hold her together. This fated relationship really had my emotions going all over the place! I highly suggest a box of tissues when reading! This book has made a place in my heart where it will stay for a very long time. I’m definitely going to be looking at more books by this author!
