Master Romano (Masters of the Consulate Book 4)  by Sylvia Black
Genre – Vampire, Paranormal, Romance
Cover Designer – Cassandra Fear C & N Designs

A vampire seeking retribution. A witch who doesn’t know how to mind her own business. Will their newfound love survive the curse?

Master Romano has one task: settle the centuries-old land feud between the vampires and witches, once and for all. It will be far harder than anyone thought.

Especially, when he meets a sassy witch who captures his attention. The magnetic attraction draws him to her as though she were put on earth just for him. But she has secrets of her own.

Raven should be scared out of her mind, both by what the fanged lord of darkness wants to do to her, and how the coven will react if they learn she’s been helping the enemy who would like nothing better than to get rid of the witches for good.

But that’s far from her greatest problem. When the Consulate suspects Raven of being a spy, Romano is ordered to end her life to prove his loyalty.

Will the king of darkness turn against the woman he loves to maintain his seat on the Consulate or choose her as his mate instead?

Master Romano is the explosive fourth book in the Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia Black. It is a deliciously dark, fated mates, forbidden love, vampire romance. You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. While the books in this series are standalones that feature different couples with a guaranteed happily ever after each conclusion, they are best read in order.

The Colors of Love (The Colors Trilogy Book 2) by K.R. Raye – Review by Savanah Schwarz

/0 Comments/in /by

After reading the first book, I was hoping to get more answers to my questions and see more character development. For Imani, I was not as attached as I was in the first book. In this one, she became a little annoying and somewhat overwhelming with her mixed signals and the consistent stress she portrayed throughout the book. It’s not that I did not like her storyline, but that I had hoped for a more mature, experience-driven arc for her instead of high maintenance and incredibly flighty with her emotions. Imani was a little too hot-cold for me which caused me some anxiety to continue reading about her. I would also like to have seen more of a story between Lance and Melody. I saw some with them individually, but I felt like Lance should have been given his time to learn how to focus on his “girls” and less on gratifying his other less appropriate natures. Overall I liked this book. It takes me back to senior year in high school when I watched the popular kids’ life unfold in front of me and shake my head at the bad decisions and toxic breakups and broken hearts(I was the outcast and nerd in my school). This gave me all the feelings of high school love and naive romance. The tragic loss of Melody hit me hard and had me set the book aside to calm my nerves. As ever the graphic scenes, the trigger warnings, and the intense emotions these characters experienced made me fall in love with them and become incredibly frustrating. So, though I yearn for a more developed storyline from the characters, I also cannot wait to read the next one. This book was that frustrating and that good. I definitely recommend it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Here is a story that took me way out of this world as soon as I opened the book! I find that my fave books start like right in the thick of things…not a whole lot of explanation, but the story builds and in chapter 2 you find out what’s really going on! Jester is a book that follows a young lady who is in her mind within reach of this grand title. She understands heavily that her competition is annoying, yet excites her, even though he always seems to be winning. Watching how she almost matures during this process makes the story so relatable in terms of emotions and how to deal with them! I love this book and I look forward to more from the author!

The Colors of Friendship (The Colors Trilogy Book 2) by K.R. Raye – Review by Savanah Schwarz

/0 Comments/in /by

This book starts off with a focus on three friends. The three of them meet and instantly form an insta-love, insta-friendship. Melody is purely romantic at heart and believes in the whole “love at first sight” type of fairytale. This ironically takes up most of the book as she falls for Kevin. Lance is the Jock and wants to go Pro to the NFL, and Imani is loyal and friendly, and always quick with witty banter.
The Colors of Friendship is about friendship, and the journey to discovering themselves. There are some harsh themes, like abuse, and graphic erotic scenes. However, this did not deter me. Instead, though some of the language and storyline were harsh, it also added to the grit of the story and added to the character development. I am glad there is a 2nd and 3rd book because this book left me feeling as if the story of the 3 friends is not finished. Almost underdeveloped. I was intrigued and very convinced to keep reading. There were a few hangups for me, mainly because of how naive Melody could be, especially being in college. But somehow that just made the story better in some ways. definitely worth the read.

Bake Happy (Bake Believe Series Book 3) by Cori Cooper – Review by Savanah Schwarz

/0 Comments/in /by
To say that Bake Happy is the perfect ending to Cat’s story is a bittersweet feeling for me. I continued to read and watch as Cat develop from this young girl to a young lady all through baking her heart into everything and a little of her Granny’s secrets.  This book had me so crazily reading every word just to get to the end. I kept waiting for more and wanting to learn and bake just as Cat had! This character Arc and storyline had me completely thrown through a loop. One minute I was laughing, the next I was crying, the next I was happily munching on cookies (yes, I tried a recipe), happily flipping to the next page. 

Cat Anderson is a sweet, kind, albeit sometimes very much an annoying teen, type of person. However, none of that deters her from loathing Nate. But when Cat and Nate are thrown together, by fate or baking (who knows),  making wishes and hoping for something else both tie them together and draw them apart down. The suspense killed me. The ever-present giggly, quirky Cat turned more into a young lady and pleasantly surprised me more times than I can count.

 

I love how they deep-dive into emotion. Cat and her family, each person in their own way, walk through a plethora of emotions that are guiding and helping them figure out the morale behind baking emotions into their food. They really consider seriously every emotion and carefully extrapolate each one into the most delicious food. Sometimes for the better, some for the worse.
I like how Cat walks us through her journey and learns the differences between emotions.
I also really loved all the added recipes in this series. It’s a nice homey touch and it feels like I’m being let in on family secrets.
So much more perfect for this story.
I loved this series and recommend it to anyone who needs a good laugh, a good cry, and a good family story.

The Prisoner of Paradise (Painted Souls, #1)The Prisoner of Paradise by Rob Samborn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

The Prisoner of Paradise is the first book in the Painted Souls series by Rob Samborn. This was such an engrossing read and had me flipping the pages to find out what would happen next. I was so immersed in the story that I ended up staying up well past by bedtime, reading the entire thing in one sitting.
It is such a well-written, gripping and vividly woven story- full of action, adventure, historical details, twists and turns, secrets, lies, danger, suspense, secret sects, intrigue, past lives, tension, soulmates, complexity, interesting characters, dramatic developments, mystery, and a famous painting that that is so much more than it seems.
Nick and Julia O’Connor embark on a trip of a lifetime, to explore the wonders of Venice- but little do they know how this trip would turn their world upside down, and how a famous painting would expose them to a centuries old mystery… leading them to mind-boggling discoveries, and dangers they never could have imagined.
This may be the written word, but it reads in such a way that the words become quite vividly visual- bringing the whole story to life before my eyes. I was there, right alongside the characters, experiencing everything as it unfolded. Mr. Samborn in a masterful storyteller who delivers a really exciting story. I enjoyed this book immensely and can see that it would make a fantastic movie too.
Bring on ‘Painter of the Damned’ (Book #2), can’t wait!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Rob Samborn!

Bake Off (Bake Believe Series Book 2) by Cori Cooper – Review by Savanah Schwarz

/0 Comments/in /by

Bake Off is the second book in the Bake Believe Trilogy. We met Cat in the first book when her life became this ever-twisting and winding road of baking, young love, and self-exploration. But now as her family’s secret is discovered and Cat realizes she can not only bake sweet delicious goodies but that she can bake in powerful emotions, stronger than any she’s ever known before. So she and her family travel to Arizona to visit the Bakery that started it all. There she falls into a Bakery showdown between her family members. She learns along the way what it means to harness the power in her emotion through baking and mystical family history. There is history, drama, and baking secrets to keep you reading. Just like the first book in this series, I was enamored. This cleverly written story brings you into the day and life of an average girl with a special gift. As I was reading I fell in love with Cat and her family and was totally immersed in the family drama, teen angst, and magical fun that comes from Bake-off. This is definitely a great sequel to the first and I can’t wait to read the next one. I also happened to try a recipe or two while reading it. Totally recommend.

I was really drawn to this book when I read the synopsis. When I started reading it I couldn’t put it down and when I did I kept thinking about it and wanted to read more. Kinda hard when you have kids. That says a lot though, the writing is fantastic, the characters are perfectly written and developed. Josh and Austin brothers who both want Mavis despite the past. It’s absolutely wonderful and I definitely enjoyed it and can’t wait to read the next book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

My Darling Rogue seemed more like the older romance books that tend to be a guilty pleasure of mine. The book was a little slow to start but turned hot and heavy really quickly and had a modern 50 shades type twist. This is definitely a book for the 18 and up crowd due to male main character’s proclivities. It was wild and kept me engaged once it picked up and it was an enjoyable read. I look forward to picking up more books by this author.

Bake Believe (Bake Believe Series Book 1) by Cori Cooper – Review by Savanah Schwarz

/0 Comments/in /by

I started to read this book with trepidation as I firmly believed quick read, but something too immature for me. I honestly did not think that I would want to read this fast to move on to something else. However, I was happily mistaken. I started to read this book and never put it down!

It starts off with Cat Anderson, newly graduated to 8th grade. She is so excited for the last day of summer before the first day of school. When she becomes entirely enamored with a pretzel, her life changes drastically. Cat being energetic, and quirky, doesn’t get phased by much. I mean, why should she? But when she bites into the pretzel from heaven from the new bakery, she knows her life will never be the same but she doesn’t know how.

It all comes together when she starts a culinary class in school she uncovers a magical mystical gift (or curse – according to her mother) that transfers her emotions into her cooking. What starts off as a simple story about a regular 8th grader turns into a cute and interesting story about a young girl coming into her own as she learns that her family has a magical, fantastical, yummy secret. It starts off with baking. Which is a huge deal in Cat’s family. I had to keep reading to find out the baking secret. I was not disappointed. now on to the next one!

The Girl Who EscapedThe Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If you are looking for a thriller that you can read in one sitting then this is for you.

Mark Nolan packs a quick paced punch in his book The Girl Who Escaped.

A spring break adventure turns deadly for 4 college girls who were just looking to have a fun vacation with no worries. However, the 4 girls were abducted, 3 were murdered and 1 barely escaped. But now, survivor Angie is not being looked at as a victim of a viscous crime, but as a suspect of the horrible murders of her friends.

Its up to FBI agent Brenda Reynolds of the Victim Services Response Team to help clear Angie’s name, help her through her trauma and find the real killer.

This novel takes off right away and doesnt slow down until the end. This was great in some ways because the pace keeps you reading, however it caused it to move a little too quickly without building the storyline and characters in a more well rounded way.

I am interested in picking up some other novels from this author as I can see myself clearing a day, gathering some snacks and finishing one of his novels in one sitting.

Happy Reading!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love all things fairy tale retellings and this one was no exception. The characters were well developed and the situations were relevant to today’s society and what kids have to deal with. This is a great beach read that once you start you find you may finish it in one setting.

Ashley is the high school pariah, a social outcast that works with dead bodies to boot. A constant target for the popular crowd Ashley has but one best friend that seems like fate brought them together and maybe that’s not so far from the truth. Life is going to plan, avoiding her evil step mother and step sisters, to finish school and finally be free of them all with a little boost from her dad. Then enters Harry James, mega celebrity, who has been ordered back to high school after a few very bad decisions landed him in front of a less than sympathetic judge. Now all the girls are chasing him except the one that interests him the most. With all the forces working against them can Harry and Ashley ever make it to their happily ever after?

In this modern day Cinderella retelling, Harry and Ashley must fight against all the forces that are pulling them apart. With a little bit of meddling behind the scenes can they overcome not just the evil step mother and her nefarious plans but also a controlling publicist and popular girl determined to find her own fame. This is a very fast read but there is action from the very first page. I absolutely loved this book and cannot wait to see what happens next for the other characters!

I was not expecting this book to be as politically charged as it was. It had good character development which led to the reader able to make their own decisions on the guiltiness of our leading character. The story found itself with a lot of subplots in my opinion that led to more questions that I feel were never answered. Overall, interesting listen with a twist at the end that I was not expecting.

4 Stars. As a Kentucky gal from somewhat less-than-typical upbringing, I appreciate the author’s use of her protagonist’s background. A big- city attorney with small town roots finds herself the center of a complicated legal matter. Themes of this story parallel current events that grip our nation. Racism, classism, and sexism all rear their ugly heads. This tale will keep you guessing until the very end, and leave you reeling from the plot twist.

What a fun and original read! A young adult, slow burn romance, fantasy that is appropriate to read for your teenager with fade to black scenes.
In this world, superheros are a common sight and they actively save the world and fight crime when the opportunity arrives. Ashali is your typical loner girl out on vacation with her best friend Miranda in Florida when she meets a handsome boy at the bar named Jase. A spontaneous decision to go home with Jase makes for a lengthy adventure of superheros, bad guys, a growing attraction neither party can deny and a discovery of one’s own ability to be a badass.

4 Stars

Ashali and the Blue Horseman is a bit of a superhero adventure story by Jordan Elizabeth. I was immediately intrigued as soon as I laid eyes on the title and cover- then the blurb sealed the deal for me.

This was a fun story with just the right amount of tension, action, intrigue, mystery, and romance to keep things interesting.

Ashali life is about to take an unexpected and action-packed turn. With an evil gang of assassins, a vigilante, secret identities, and much more- get set for a ride on the fun side.

I can see this making a great movie, or TV series.

Happy Reading!

 

Thank you, Jordan Elizabeth!

I enjoyed this romance story that has a touch of suspense. This is not my first book by this author but this one ranks up with one of my favorites. This is a well written story where the past comes crashing into the present and having to face it head on. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into their story from the start. They are connectable and I enjoyed watching their growth throughout. They have great chemistry and I found myself hoping they would find their HEA at the end. This is a fast paced story that certainly ticks all the boxes for romance and suspense. A hard to put down story that you don’t want to miss.

I was hooked by the characters, and continued to stay hooked by the complexity within the relationships. This book has everything a romance can offer – including second chances, drama, fate, high school sweethearts, and love triangles.
The characters were so relatable and real… and the story was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Now I cannot wait to see what else is in store with this trilogy!

I Loved You Yesterday was beautiful, sweet, and heartbreaking. I loved it and I can’t wait to read the next one. A second chance romance as well as a love triangle to boot. The author weaved a web that could’ve left all the characters destroyed, but that’s not what happened.
Mavis and Joshua high school sweethearts. The love of each other’s lives. Well that was till Mavis disappeared only leaving a letter in her wake. Devastating Joshua, her brother Mitch and the rest of their friend group. 10 years have now gone by and Joshua wants to go after the one who got away, despite the feelings of others. He has no clue where to start besides a magazine story, till his twin brother drops a bombshell. He knows where she is.
Austin has kept Mavis’s whereabouts a secret and had every intention of doing so despite his better judgement. Mavis came to Austin in a time of need and support, not long after she disappeared. Austin became her comfort and secret keeper over the last 10 years. Little did she realize what that was doing to them.
Stuck between two brothers, how does one decide their feelings?
How will Mavis navigate the reemergence of Joshua in her life?
What will that mean for Austin?
The author keeps you on the edge of your seat to get to those answers. This book was well put together and though I could sometimes guess what was coming next. The author presented those scenarios in unexpected ways. Which I thoroughly enjoyed. I feel like anyone who gives this book a shot won’t want to put it down till they are done!

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. If you don’t like Male/Male relationships this book isn’t for you. I’m Not Your Difference is a great read and I enjoyed it. This is part of the Fitz Series.

Andy is battling Parkinson’s and raising a daughter on his own. He was married at one point, but his husband decided it was too much for him to handle. Now Andy is trying to move on for the sake of his daughter. The quote I chose for Andy is: “Fitz, this is not like you. You’re such a forgiving person. Did you ever think that maybe he realized he was wrong? Maybe he wants to make amends.”

Stephen was Andy’s husband and made the biggest mistake of his life. Seeing Andy happy made him realize that he wants Andy back. Now he’s got to figure out what to do to get him back. The quote I chose for Stephen is: “I can’t. I’ve got an important case to work on. I’m going in the shower. You can let yourself out. Stone, I really need to get to work. Honestly, this isn’t working for me. Maybe if I was younger, like you, my mindset would be different.”

Highly recommended for M/M Crime Romance lovers.
