Misfortune of Song: An Irish Historical Fantasy Family Saga (The Druid's Brooch)Misfortune of Song: An Irish Historical Fantasy Family Saga by Christy Nicholas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is truly a fascinating fantasy book. It is a historical one at that. Maelan is just trying to do what he feels is right. He’s so conflicted. You feel his pain and discomfort through the story as he tries to protect his granddaughter. The writing of this story is phenomenal. Don’t fret, the author gives a bit of a dictionary to help with the Irish words, so you shouldn’t get to lost. The descriptions of the people and the lands totally make you feel like you are there. I came in at this, book 5 of the series. I do plan to go back and start with the first book because there is a brooch involved and I feel a little lost because I don’t know the history of how it got back through time. I can really tell the author did her research because things are just so laid out. The plot line comes back together when it takes a twist or turn. An amazing book that I definitely recommend for fantasy or historical readers, or both.

The Rom Com Movie Club - Book OneThe Rom Com Movie Club – Book One by Bernadette Marie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Rom Com Movie Club is the first book in The Rom Com Movie Club series. Lisa and her friends have had their Rom Com Movie nights since their younger days, and now in their 30s, they want to meet their romantic matches. Lisa had a rough childhood and finds it hard to trust anyone. Ryan has moved back home and has been burned in the romance department.
I really enjoyed this fun read. The story is lighthearted and filled with romantic tension. I enjoyed the characters, and the friendship Lisa and her friends shared. I also enjoyed the relationship that grew between Lisa and Ryan. The story was true to the rom com title.
I look forward to seeing who is featured in the next book in the series.

Tink (Devil's Handmaidens MC-Book One)Tink by D.M. Earl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is another winner in the MC books this author writes. I am a big fan of her Grimm Wolves series. Tink and her club were introduced in the last book. Tink is both vulnerable and strong. Shadow just has some serious issues but Is loyal to Tink and her family. The two of them make a good pair. We see new friends and some old friends pop up in this book. There is lots of drama, mystery/suspense, romance, and a bit of violence. Hey, it is an MC book. This is one of two of my favorite MC authors. She has a way of writing that grabs you in, sits you down, and says “don’t move until you finish this book.” Intensely entertaining, a little troubling, steamy romance and you have the best book you just might find this year in the romance genre. I can’t wait to read more.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is not one I would have originally chosen to read, but the narrative peaked my interest as did the book the entire way through. It starts during a stent in Vietnamese years ago, where Rex did a wrong doing and leaves Don getting the punishment for it. Rex goes back to the States, not knowing what transpired after he left until years later when Don and his family had relocated to Mississippi. Don held a grudge for years and wanted to speak with Rex about it, but never gets the chance before his death. Rex finds out after Don’s death what transpired years ago, which brings them to the current day. However, Don’s death was thought to be a murder, but was it? Rex’s sons are being blamed for Don’s death. Don’s daughter, Anh, finds a journal that her dad had written in years ago that explains everything that happened. It’s a great story of how we cannot assume we know what other’s have gone through in life as everyone has a past. I highly recommend this book to readers!

Petty’s Crime (Satan’s Devils MC Las Vegas Book 3) by Manda Mellett

Petty’s Crime is the third book in the Satan’s Devils MC Las Vegas Series and is a wonderfully written MC Romance. This author never ceases to amaze me with her amazing characters and the storyline just flows. Her characters are real, relatable and fully developed. Each one brings the story to life in a different way. Each book I read I say is my favorite but Petty’s is at the top of that list . I wasn’t sure going in what to expect from Petty as from previous books I didn’t want to like him. He was kinda a standoffish . It all makes sense now why he acts the way he does. Petty was taught from a very young age to never lay a hand on a woman(girl) no matter what and his job was to protect them . What happens when he receives a phone call from his past? Petty is part of the Las Vegas chapter of the Satan’s Devils and his current job has him on security for RoseLyn whose ex is been sending not nice notes . These two have similar stories but can he open up to her. His brother’s don’t even know his whole past. Who will stand by his side when his brother’s abandon him? I don’t want to give to much away. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. This was way more emotional than I had expected but man what a ride. I as always look forward to reading more from this Author.

Degrees of Innocence: Dark Mafia Romance (Cruel Deceptions Book 1) By Via Mari – Review by Angela Shirley

/0 Comments/in /by

Degrees of Innocence (Prestian Series, #1)Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Katarina’s past has always been the driving force to her life, scarred by her mother and driven within her career she has never really enjoyed life, until she meets the dark and mysterious Chase Prestian. With his relentless nature to make her his and the chemistry between them sparks will fly but can Katarina open her dark desires to him.

Chase has it all money, success, and a revolving door of woman but none has piqued his interest like Katarina, with the chemistry and the willing to show her the dark side of life will she be as open to a relationship with him once he shows her his other side.

This book is full of action and steamy scenes, I am always drawn to a Alpha male and Chase is more than that. The action within this book is full of intrigue and suspense, with the characters each having their own flaws and problems to overcome. I love the interactions between the two main characters and the way Katarina discovers this about herself personally along the way.

Although the book has a vibe of the Sub/Dom relationship this is done in a way to enhance the characters relationships and provides and interesting look into both. I loved the strong character of Katarina and although she shows her submissive side to Chase there is always a sass to her character and style. Overall, this is a brilliant start to the series and can’t wait to read more and discover more of this world.

This is my first time reading from this author and I was thoroughly impressed by the twists and turns of Nico’s path in life. Though I did not read book one, I could understand the amount of damage that Nico had done prior to this book. I’m always taken aback by a deep story line that continues to build and build. The author uses this book to try and explain the devilish nature of Nico, and appeal to the empathetic side of us. I was definitely on a complete roller coaster ride witnessing Nico return home and relive his treacherous past! There were so many times during this story that I felt pained by his circumstances, yet it was also completely exhausting. This was an exceptional read!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book one of the series. It’s the first book I’ve read by this author but it was good! I was sucked in and couldn’t put it down.

Pippa has moved across the country to escape the disaster that was her abusive marriage. When she gets word that her ex is in jail for assault, she couldn’t be happier. She’s free! She lets her friend talk her into a Halloween costume party. Pippa is feeling brave and takes a chance with Tanner. Tanner is working on getting over his on again off again relationship. Pippa (as a woodland fairy) may be just what he needs. Of course Pippa and Tanner leave the party knowing nothing about each other and that will backfire in a big way. Lots happens after the Halloween party. You definitely need to give it a read to find out.

This was a quick read but so much happens! You get sucked in and can’t wait to see how it will all play out!

Celtic Fairies, Fables, and Folklore!

Christy Nicholas loves all things historical, especially if it has anything to do with Ireland, Scotland, England, or Iceland, and she writes historical fantasy, travel guides, and a book on writing craft. Her tales tend to the gritty, with bittersweet endings, and she’s never afraid to torture her characters. But there is beauty in all darkness, and she loves showing that, as well.

This story reminds me that you never know what someone else is going through.  Both Petty and RoseLyn have some serious situations going on, but neither want to be seen as a victim.  Expertly written, could not put it down – I was emotionally invested.  Once again,  the author has given us a gem!

Petty's Crime (Satan's Devils MC Las Vegas #3)Petty’s Crime by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have tried to avoid jumping into another chapter when I am still reading the mother chapter from Arizona but I should have known better. This author has proven time and time again that she rocks.

RoseLyn is an up and coming singer with a minor residence in Las Vegas. She is attempting to put her life back in order after getting out of an abusive relationship. The only problem is that it looks like her ex-boyfriend is unwilling to let her go. He has become a stalker that no one seems to be able to find. RoseLyn’s manager hires the Satan’s Devils as personal protection for RoseLyn.

Petty is a man that has seen and been through a lot, starting with losing his father at a very young age. Petty served his time in the military and is now serving on RoseLyn’s protection detail. Petty and RoseLyn don’t seem to like each other very much. That works just fine for Petty because he has no interest in allowing a woman anywhere near his heart ever again. When Petty’s past catches up to him, he has no choice but to accept it. How will anyone understand?

Things get a little crazy with the stalker ex. Add on Petty’s past and things go even more crazy. So much is against Petty and RoseLyn. Will they ever be able to lead a life without stalkers or ex’s messing things up? Only time will tell.

Here is yet another chapter that I am now in love with. I can’t get enough of these bikers. I won’t pick a chapter. I won’t pick a chapter to love more than the others. It is just too difficult. Just like the issues the author tackles in these stories about hard riding bikers and the powerful, independent women who love them. In this book alone, domestic violence, PTSD, childhood trauma, consent and stalking were handled with love and care. This particular story had much less steam than I am used to from this author but the story was better for it. It was very much appropriate for the characters and plot. I now know that no matter what chapter the biker is from, he will have a place in my heart and on my shelf!!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I read the description of this book I knew I had to pick it up, because the descriptions of Emily and her bff reminded me so much of myself and my bff. I could seriously see myself trying to talk my bff into something just like this in order to have fun, distract her, and help her through her heartache. This is a fun Romantic Comedy that holds plenty of humor, some love, a smidgen of revenge, and a quirky fake relationship. The author did a phenomenal job writing these characters who are funny, loveable, and just people I wanted to read about.

What do u get when u mix one loud friend, with a heart the size of Texas and one friend who seems to have her life in order and everything going for her? You guessed it, you get one exciting, humorous, wild ride… I mean cruise. Do yourself a favor and pick this fun, fast read up I guarantee you won’t be sorry you did.

4 Stars

 

The Perfect Mrs. Claus by Barbara Matteson is a charming and delightful holiday story with all the feelgood ingredients we love about Christmas stories.
Savanah has been feeling lost and alone since her husband death. Her son has moved to the other side of the world for work, which means that Savanah is looking at being alone for Christmas. But a spur of the moment visit to one of her favourite stores results in a tempting proposal, which changes everything.
These characters were so endearing, so easy to like- I found myself quickly investing in them and the outcome of their sweet story.
Sprinkled with emotion and a little humour, this Christmas romance will warm your heart….. and is a great way to kick-off this holiday season.
Looking forward to more from Ms. Matteson…
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Barbara Matteson!

This is the second book in this series and it’s just as good! This book picks right up where book one left off which I enjoyed. There wasn’t any time passing or anything that put space between book one and this one. Because I read book one, I wasn’t lost at all but new readers might be. This book is just as well written and entertaining. The only thing is Chloe & Quintus’ romance isn’t dealt with as much as I would like. Other than that, this book is so good and I can’t wait for book 3.

I’m always on the lookout for books by Ms. Valkyrie. The author has original characters in her books and I’m always surprised by how relatable they are. This paranormal romance is a short story but fun to read and easily read in a day. I really enjoyed the premise that every ten years the gods let one person who was wrongfully killed back to the real world to find a mate within 3 days. What a challenge when Quinnlan Comes back to life in a small town.

I will always recommend Ms. Valkyrie’s books to fans of paranormal stories. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Cute, cute, cute. Classical cozy mystery with gnomes, leprechauns, werewolves, and an investigative reporter trying to solve the mystery of the missing gnomes. Not my typical read, but about six or seven chapters in I was hooked. I see that it is the first book in a series to come, and I think the characters will develop more throughout the series. To me this is a great start to a lovely series in a quirky little mystical town.

This book was the first book to this new series. The book was a little slow paced but based on being the first book it’s a great installment. The plot was built to the point that I will be looking for the next book in here. It was amazingly written that you could almost feel like you were in the room with everyone. Miranda is a teenager that she all of a sudden had magical powers. She felt like her family wouldn’t like it or except the fact that she had these powers, so she ran away. Finding out that more girls just like her, Miranda starts to wonder what is going on and if she will be next. This was a great first book to the series and honestly can’t wait for the next one, I really want to know what was going to happen.

This was a good 4 star read.
I enjoyed this because it involves an older couple who find love when they least expect it.
Juliet is a teacher and when Jim joins her class there is instant attraction. The class assignment is to read Romeo and Juliet, which gives Jim inspiration. I love Romeo and Juliet so I loved the quotes. There is so much that goes on in this read. We get a glimpse of the past so that we can understand the history. Both characters were great each in their own ways. There is a twist and Juliet is put in danger. Will Jim be able to help Juliet?
The author does a great job with her writing. If you’re looking for a great read 1-click and get started today.

She truly deserves continued praise and recognition for her creative storylines. Again I know I have said it before but the captivating writing talent of this author easily transports the reader back in time so much so that you really feel as though you can see everything around you and all that is happening. Just this alone should make you want to read this fantastic book but here is a very quick snap shot of the storyline.

Petty’s Crime: Satan-s Devils MC Las Vegas #3 (Satan’s Devils MC Las Vegas Chapter)

I have been a fan of this author and series for quite some time now. She has no problems writing about some uncomfortable subjects and doing it well and bringing some much needed attention which she did here. I won’t lie there were times it was difficult for me to read but it was worth it.

Petty hasn’t been likable in any of the previous books he has made an appearance in and we find out why. He probably went too far with it but as we get to know him better it all makes sense.

RoseLyn has enough to deal with her stalker but to have to deal with Petty and his grumpy self is additional stress she really doesn’t need or want no matter how easy on the eyes he is.
We are still getting to know the Vegas guys and so far so good. This is a great book and one if my favorite series. As always I’m waiting impatiently to see which Devil falls next.

Thought Provoking, Enchanting characters, Strong Females, and the Discovery of Magic. What more could you want in a book?

This author never fails to bring out so many emotions out of me as I read. She has a way of tearing my heart apart one minute and making me laugh the next.

Miranda, Neeta, and Billie are a very unlikely trio, all with varied pasts. When these three come together, they finally find people they can trust and rely on. Miranda, being a 16 year old runaway, pretending to be 18 years old, finds herself in New Orleans after discovering she has magic powers. With the news showing many females are suddenly acquiring magic she is terrified to be caught. Women are disappearing and being reported to authorities. No one knows where they are going or what is happening. When a new character is introduced you are on the pins and needles wondering if something terrible is about to happen.

I was totally swept into the story as the characters and surroundings are so full of depth. When the author describes the rug in the motel room, my toes actually curled and I lifted them off the floor.

This book brings a twist to well loved fairytales with the Queen, Snow White, dwarves, a magic mirror, dragons and more.

Defiant Princess (Mafia Elite Prequel)Defiant Princess by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Did I click the buy now button without needing any more details other than knowing the author’s name? Sure did! I have more than loved all of the works I have ever read by Amy McKinley. Let me tell ya this book did not let me down. Another amazing story by Amy.

This novella takes place as a stage opener for the series The Mafia Elite. It gives a look into the younger lives of the mafia Princesses that we follow during the main series. It is full of adventures, danger, intrigue, drama, and mystery. Each of the characters draws you in with a way to relate to them in one way or another. Putting the book down is nearly impossible. I couldn’t wait to find out what would happen next.

Don’t wait to pick up this prequel to The Mafia Elite series. While you are at it, have the entire main series ready to go next. I read the prequel after the original series, but it didn’t affect any enjoyment from it.

The Final BiteThe Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a quick and adorable story about second chances, full of action, and romance. Quinnlan has been chosen for a second chance at life, but with just 3 days, in a small town, his options are limited, and the opportunity for happily ever after is slim. Despite the shortness of the tale, the pacing was well set and the action well written. The heat between Quinnlan and Garrett is smoldering right from the start and just continues to get hotter. If you love paranormal stories with fast action and romance, this is a great story for you!
