Hate You Later (Lit Lovers Series Book 1) by Ciara Blume – Review by Amanda Haller-Doris

Hate You Later (Lit Lovers, #1)Hate You Later by Ciara Blume
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a cute rom-com! The main characters are doing an online Petfluencer challenge and they have been paired together, but they have no idea who the other person is, because part of the challenge is they can only communicate as the personality of their pet. While they are struggling to figure things out in the real world, their pet personalities are starting to wonder if a cat and dog can make things work. Georgia is a fantastic main character who takes no nonsense from anyone. She is tiny but fierce, the complete opposite of her sweet boxer mix Cookie. Hudson is her perfect match, a sexy Viking lookalike that gets her heart racing, despite knowing it’s his family that is creating barriers for her business to help support the animal shelter. Hudson is cat sitting Oliver, a very prissy white cat. Add in coffee witch best friend, a brilliant stepsister, and a loving brother, you have all of the hallmarks of a great romantic comedy, full of hilarious banter and misunderstandings. The characters are all fans of a podcast called Lit Lovers which is common theme throughout the book. I am so excited to see which character will be featured in the next series and I look forward to seeing Georgia, Cookie, Hudson, and Oliver in the next book!

Fighting Chance by Toni Denise – Review by Christie Mitchum

Fighting ChanceFighting Chance by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fighting Chance by Toni Denise is a shorter novel but packs a punch, pardon the pun, but I can’t think of a more appropriate description!

Kendall is a reporter trying to make her mark, but all her stories are shot down by her boss, and now, she has to come up with a good one, or she is out on the street without a job. She gets an inside scoop on an underground but not illegal MMA fighting circuit from her father who is a trainer in a local gym. Little does she know how this story will impact both her personal and professional life.

Chad is the MMA fighter that Kendall’s dad is training. I have read my share of MMA books, but this one is a bit different, in a good way. There is a little bit of mystery that involves the true identity of Chad. He isn’t your typical fighter, and he didn’t become a fighter for the fame it can involve. As a matter of fact, he is trying to keep his true identity a secret. So, agreeing to an interview with Kendall won’t be easy for him. The two share some intense chemistry from their very first meeting, and it only becomes stronger as the story progresses.

As I indicated earlier in my review, the book is shorter than some. However, there is a lot of exciting stuff happening within the pages. It’s told from a dual POV, so readers get an insight into the thoughts and feelings of both characters which draws you more into their story. The book also touches on bullying, so you get a good romance along with something serious that affects society. It’s a solid read that doesn’t take very long at all to finish.

The Gauntlet (The Soppranaturale Series Book 1) by Ashley Pagano – Review by Rayne East

The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale SeriesThe Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series by Ashley Pagano
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Enjoyable and unique
This was a fun supernatural read. A very different perspective of the supernatural world with The Soppronaturale refuge. The characterisation was brilliant with a twist on the standards. This is an easy read and the story has a natural flow. There is a lot to take in but the author cleverly weaves the layers within the storyline. With the action of the Gauntlet, the fate of the fairies, destinies, the powers each supernatural has and the secrets that must be kept, I was enthralled from start to finish. Really looking forward to The Guard.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Engaging and intense
This is the first book in the Sicilian Gods series and it is a very strong start. The book has depth in characterisation, an intriguing plot and intensity that took my breath away. Salvatore is a dark and fierce alpha male and Adrianna is far from a wilted flower. These two create fireworks and have a chemistry that just melts the pages. There is so much between the pages from mafia politics, revenge, gun fights to drama and an unavoidable romance. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to secure book 2.

Elemental Fire (The Hidden Realms Book 1) by EG Manetti – Review by Santana Hicks

Elemental Fire (The Hidden Realms #1)Elemental Fire by E.G. Manetti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sin is a human who works as a freelancer. She does a bit of everything from stopping an art thief to rescuing a kidnapped child. She works for both humans and supernatural beings called the Hidden. After what seemed like an open shut case, she meets a man named Rad. Being able to see through glamour, Sin realizes that Rad is not human but a fire demon of some sort. She finds out from him that her art thief case isn’t so black and white like she first thought. The thief was trying to recover items that actually belonged to the Hidden.

Rad is a warden for the Hidden, but is really intrigued by Sin. He doesn’t normally start anything romantic with humans but they can’t help that the chemistry between them is strong. He introduces her to the supernatural world and realizes that he willingly put her in danger. Together the couple try to stop smuggled goods from entering the Hidden world. Let’s not forget the steamy down time they have together too.

At first, the book starts off like any other Fae book but then takes a very interesting turn. It was very intriguing and I found myself falling in love with both Sin and Rad. This book is a must!

WE Blend (Falling for the Rockstar's Daughter Series #1)WE Blend by Willa Drew
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So sweet. I absolutely love the way that these two star crossed lovers have their own sets of pros and cons that seem to compliment the other, and give the other the ability to better themselves in all aspects of their lives. Though they may not have been honest from the start, there’s something to be said for feeling that instant connection. I have always felt as though others have a secret agenda, so following this connection, their dialogue, and the plot thicken as the pages were flipped, I enjoyed the back and forth immensely.

Family comes first, always, and it is made apparent within these pages that the author feels much the same and wants her characters to be portrayed as such as well. The character building, the angst that one would feel at their age, and the weight of the world comes through to the reader clearly, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading Will and Melodie’s story. Will be back for more from her. Pure entertainment, well done!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Scott Warren won a loyal reader in me from this book! I thought from a glance at the cover that I would enjoy it, but I never expected that I would have loved it so much. This Sci-Fi read is full of action in every chapter and the world building is remarkable!

Rande ‘Vandal’ VanDelle is our main character, and he is in for more than he bargained for. He works as a veteran tank mechanic until he’s attacked while he works on a tank. There is nothing scarier than a literal trial by fire as he must learn how to operate and fight these tanks to save his life. Will he be able to pick up enough to scrape by, or will Vandal be overthrown?

The story felt so real with the author’s incredibly detailed depiction of each scene. I am eagerly awaiting the second book in this series as well as picking up others by this author. I highly recommend you pick this up, you won’t be disappointed!

Defying EllaDefying Ella by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As you might imagine, most of these rock star romance novels end with a very cute happily ever after. I’m not complaining, at all. Honestly, the way that different authors write, it intrigues me to no end, and this author was no different. Though the story follows two main characters, being Ella and Jared, you’re not torn in trying to decide who you’re more connected to. Rather, you feel for them both. Jared is this hardcore play boy that has a touch, yes, a touch, of anxiety and a myriad of other things going on, and what he wants more than nothing else is to be enough. Ella, oh Ella. She doesn’t know what she wants, but she knows she wants what she sees in her group of friends. In all ways.

Ultimately, this novel came at me, and I devoured it, very quickly. Especially with the colder weather coming up, the idea of being stuck in a cabin with a hot play boy for a quick little tryst sounds like just what the doctor ordered. I will be going back and reading more of this authors work, as she definitely has the writing skill bug, and I love it! Highly recommend.

Elemental Fire (The Hidden Realms #1)Elemental Fire by E.G. Manetti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a whirlwind romance with a compelling story!!! Immersive. Steamy. Action Oriented. It definitely gave me Maas-esque vibes! I really loved the world-building and the antagonization of the human realm and the Hidden realms. It created a realistic story about how bureaucratic issues make certain actions slower than they wish they could be dealt with. Rad’s and Sin’s story is a little fast in the beginning but it all makes sense when you get to the end! My favorite female characters are always the strong ones and Sin is no different! She doesn’t care if the job is tough and gritty it would look almost pleasurable to some of the things that she has dealt with in her small town in Massachusetts. She is an independent woman that doesn’t need help BUT isn’t hesitant to ask for it when it is needed. She has this amazing ability that allows her to see through glamour and see the world of the Hidden creatures as they really are. This is what spurred her curiosity about Rad and his connection to her friend. The rest is the journey you have to discover for yourself! This was my first novel by this author and I’m looking forward to delving into her other novels!!!!

When I first saw this book I knew instantly that I had to read it. While this isn’t my first read from this author I was initially worried that it wouldn’t hold up to my expectations, but boy was I wrong. Per usual the characters are perfectly developed, the plot was intriguing and flowed beautifully, and the action was amazing. The lead characters played off each other perfectly and this story was so different that I couldn’t possibly compare it to the authors previous series. So if you’re looking to start a new series make sure to run and pick this one up today.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent, excellent book. I loved every part of this book, especially the female main character, Sin. Elemental Fire is the first book in the Hidden Realms series by E.G. Manetti. This checks all of the boxes for me, paranormal romance, fantasy, a strong female main character, investigations, magic, adventure, danger, and more mythical creatures (which some I ended up looking up, and goodness the author did AMAZING describing them because the google images I looked up was exactly what I envisioned when reading.). I was hooked right from the beginning, and I could not put it down, ended up reading it in one sitting. The character develop was A+++, the setting was also painted magnifically, both for the Hidden Realm and Terra. I loved the story of Sin, the way she was raised, her powers of being able to see through glamour, her career choices, her previous men choices, literally loved everything about this woman. I also, thoroughly loved Rad, and even Moreso- loved Rad and Sin together! The chemistry between the two was so intense and electrifying. There is plenty of action and danger, as well as some mystery in addition to the relationship of Rad and Sin. I CAN NOT WAIT UNTIL BOOK 2 is RELEASED! Will definitely recommend to everyone I know!

War Horses Book 1: ChevalierWar Horses Book 1: Chevalier by Scott Warren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rande VanDelle or “Vandal” as he is more commonly known is a mechanic for the upright tanks in the Chevaliers Private Cavalry and has been for eight years and because of this, he is one of the sought out veteran mechanics there is. He manages to keep the old girls running despite the best efforts of the enemy fire they see off, but like every mechanic, he always has a favourite.

One night, after finishing routine maintenance on one of the oldest uprights in the section, Vandal asks to take it out on a routine patrol a bit earlier than planned as he really wants to test it out, after much humming and hawing, they eventually let him. He puts the machine through its paces in a way that not many other mechanics can and manages to go a bit further than planned, but he then picks up a threat message on his sensors.

Not sure what to do, he reports in, but when he hears nothing back, he starts to go in the offensive so that he can try and make his way back to the barracks and help. He is not combat or pilot trained in the slightest, but he still manages to fight his way out of a life threatening situation and just about keeps his head attached in the process, albeit with some sensory overload when the call comes in to evacuate, he is helped into the transport taking them away from the battlefield.

It is when he is called upon by his superior that he thinks it is the end of his career, but instead he is given a choice, he can continue with the maintenance team and love on until his superiors grace runs out, or he can train to be a pilot and hone his skills, which he showed during the confrontation. The problem is he never really wanted to be a pilot, but he agrees to the promotion and trains hard until he is called up.

Will Vandal be able to control his designated upright tank after only a short training period against an enemy who as well as turncoats and rebels, is harbouring an elite fighting force in support of them? This is a sci-fi set in a world which could be the future of our own where old technology is pitted against new in a war of attrition with a reluctant hero at the centre of it all, in this story which will leave you on tenterhooks throughout, as military teams engage in deadly confrontations, as civilians hide away.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just One More Egg is a beautiful children’s story and great for all ages as well. This author never disappoints. The story talks about the love of a mama warbler for an egg that was not her own and how even when the egg hatched and caused a bit more work for the mama she still loved and appreciated it just as much as her own eggs that eventually hatched.
As an educator this book has a lot hidden within it. I enjoyed that even though the mama warbler knew the egg/baby was not hers she still cared for it like her own and that she understood it was different but treated it the same. Children can benefit from reading this great example of how we can all be a bit different but in the end should be treated just the same no matter what the circumstances.
I would highly recommend this book to any educator or parent looking for a well written and illustrated story for their class or own child.

I could not put this book down! I am a sucker for a great sports romance novel and this one fit my liking to a tee! This story revolved around Kendall, who is a sports reporter on the verge of losing her job. She landed this job due to her father and his role in the sports community. Her father tells her to meet him one evening to come to an underground fight, where she meets Chad. He is just as stubborn as she is and when they meet the sparks fly. They encounter ups and downs through the story, and it is not like any other sports romance that I have read. I cannot wait to read more books by this amazingly talented author.

Not only can Missy see Fred, who sleeps with her, but she sees swarms of hundreds and hundreds of spiders. She is the only one who can see them. As Fred gets bigger, the smaller spiders start lashing out at people and this is when people start dying. This was such a great written book, and I could not put this down.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is by far the most captivating psychological thriller that I have read in a long time! I did not read the first book in this series, but I will be reading it now! Though Stumble and Fall does have connections to its predecessor, it can be read as a stand alone, which I appreciate. There is enough information to not feel lost so readers can jump right in and enjoy! Every page left me chewing fingernails anxiously awaiting what was coming next.

The story follows Kate, a counselor, and her sister Tilly, a nurse. Both girls have a traumatic and complicated background of their own. They have been through a lot and want to move forward with their lives while helping others in their own ways. The characters and their stories are deep and emotional. They each have their own unique background and story, but their lives intertwine beautifully. Kate reeled me in from page one, and I found myself invested in her success and happiness. I can not wait to get to know Kate and Tilly more.

Ella and Jared had a hot week together in their past. Once Jared cut and run, Ella was glad not to have to see him again – until fate intervened. Now they have been too close for comfort for MONTHS. Jared is a talented drummer, woos and runs on woman and woman, and loves to pick at Ella and make her miserable. After months on tour together, Ella cannot wait to have a relaxing time at a secluded cabin with all of her best girlfriends!

Seeking a refuge before their downtime together, Ella heads to the cabin early for a reprieve, thankful for her break from Jared…until he shows up at the door of the cabin and a monster snowstorm follows him there. After anticipating being away from him for so long, will they be able to manage without tearing each other apart?

After deciding on a truce, it leads to discussions about Jared and the facade he wears to survive, while Ella opens up about how he made her feel in the past and now. Their chemistry is crazy hot, and opening the door of the truce and the discussions makes Jared MUCH more likeable than he is earlier in the story. They rekindle their passion in the privacy of the cabin, but what happens when they aren’t secluded and snowed in, anymore?

This is book 4 in a series but was easily a standalone and now has me racing to read the first 3!

This book was intense from the first few pages. With a unique and raw writing style the author sets the tone for the action, suspense and adventure contained throughout. The characters were raw and real, especially Vandal who was relatable as a tank mechanic. It was interesting to read and expanded my mind into the world of military machines. A great read!
