And Then She FellAnd Then She Fell by Dreena Collins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was definitely a thrill ride from start to finish. I enjoyed the fact that there were so many possibilities on how the death occurred and each one was just as plausible as the last. It kept me guessing as to who might have played a role in Susie’s “accidental” death.

Catherine is a mom on a search for answers into what really happened to her daughter Susie the day she dies. For her, something never felt quite right about the circumstances and needing to find closure the truth is important to her. Unfortunately, the more she digs in the more she realizes that she didn’t really know who Susie became or the kind of person she was. With ten possible scenarios on who was involved and how the accident happened will Catherine ever finally uncover the truth? Or is the truth best left alone before something else sinister happens?

Each scenario had me doubting who could have played a role in Susie’s death. And the fact that the more Catherine learned about Susie the less she knew about her daughter and the woman she had become. The end really threw me for a loop and I was shocked at just how everything played out. If you like psychological thrillers then definitely give this one a try, it is a well written masterpiece.

Shake, rattle and roll!
This brilliant picture story book is the second book in the Invisible Wand Series. Caspian is back, bringing his cousin, grandpa and of course his trusty wand. What are they going to do when there is an earthquake?
This engaging story has terrific illustrations and has embedded educational aspects. Aged for 4-8 year olds it would make a fun addition to any class or home library.

Brilliant!
This is book 3 in the Fear Inc series and it was amazing. The storyline was engaging and the characters were easily relatable. Even though this can be read as stand-alone, I loved seeing characters from the previous books and knowing their story. There is romance, witty banter, a deep brotherhood, best friend’s sister angst, and a bit of steam. Highly recommend.

This book is another successful addition to a series that is clearly shaping up to be amazing. I am always blown away by how easily I get into one of these books, the storyline and the characters. The author weaves the two together in such an effortless way that I cannot help but be drawn in.
This book picks up where the previous one leaves off so I would recommend reading them in order. However, this can be read as a standalone without too much being missed. Via Mari has easily become one of my go to authors and this book is a great example of why. It is so easy to read her books as it feels like the pages turn themselves. This is an amazing story and I cannot wait for the next!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I liked the idea of this story more than the story itself.

The story started out alright, but once the two main characters meet up the second time, it felt like they barely even had a connection on Alyssa’s end of things and they were already jumping in bed. It also felt like Rowan was pressuring Alyssa. An example without being spoilery – Rowan goes to get some extra clothes. Alyssa comments on him looking like he’s moving into her house and he blows it off. Then, he moves his clothes into her dresser and closet without telling her. But he’s expecting her to trust him, even though he’s pulling shady stuff. I didn’t like that vibe at all.

I did enjoy the mythological aspects of the story and the attention to detail.

All-in-all, it wasn’t the read I was hoping for, but it was entertaining.

Talisman: The Talisman SeriesTalisman: The Talisman Series by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 stars
Tam DeRudder Jackson is a Paranormal Fantasy romance writer and a new author to me, so I was excited to get started. Talisman is the first book in the Talisman series and there is a lot going on. There is Celtic mythology, druids, gods and goddesses, supernatural abilities, magic, a curse, revenge, and good vs evil. It is written in multiple POV which makes the story that much broader.
It is a unique modern day paranormal tale set in Montana. The story and colourful characters are interesting and the premise is good but the even flow of the story was missing. The story starts out well but there is a lot of over details throughout the whole book which kind of made me skim over a lot it. The ending was interesting but there are a few things that didn’t mesh throughout. I also wish there was more action.
Alyssa is a shy woman and has no idea about what is out in the world and who they really are but one night changes all that. She really was a little naïve and had a lot of catching up to do and not be so accepting of things.
Rowan is a warrior and doesn’t have much time left to find his Talisman. However, she has no idea about his world or the supernatural in general. Unfortunately time is against them. Will all be lost? Rowan was a little frustrating at times and I just wanted him to calm down a bit.
As this is the first book in the series I am going to continue to read more books and hope that this is just first book teething issues.

Delicious Death (Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries #2)Delicious Death by Byrd Nash
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Well, well, well a ghost story with suspense. Elinor Chalamet a crime fighting medium. She is not only independent but plays a strong role in this case. While things seem to be quiet around her, life gets boring. Getting an invitation from the King Guenard, she chooses to visit the King and the great cook off. Taking her friend Dr. Charlotte LaRue with her on the adventure. But things change quite quickly. Murder and mayhem keep this story going with its twists and turns. This is a new author for me. But I am very pleased I gave her a chance. Her fantasy ghost story with its action and suspense held my interest and was fun to read. I am looking forward to what happens next for Elinor.

Handle With Care (Chase Care Book 1)Handle With Care by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Handle With Care is the first book in the Chase Care series, which is a spin-off from the Chase Security series which is one of my favourite series. I was so glad to jump back into the Chase world and this certainly did not disappoint. Far, far from it!
When reviewing a book like this, I realise that I give to many 5 star ratings. By this I mean that this book is so good that I feel that it deserves more than the 5 stars I’m allowed to give it.
At over 500 pages, this is not a short read, but in all honesty I could have read another 500 pages of this story. I was totally engrossed in this book and hated having to put it down to go back to the ‘real’ world.
Hunter and Selma are 2 fascinating characters among a large cast of characters, many of whom I loved and others I hated. Hunter and Selma’s story is so much more than a romance story. This story has soooo much drama. It really is edge of your seat, heart in your mouth reading as characters lives are hanging on by the thinnest of threads.
This is a book that I know I will read again and I can’t wait for more in this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Last year Caspian received a Magic Wand from his grandfather. It could speed up and slow down time. In this story, his cousin Belinda asks for a Magic Wand because she wants to be able to do the same. It is pretty cool to speed up time through things you might not like so much and slow down time to enjoy the things you love. Speeding up time through an earthquake, getting out of the house safely, and running fast are just some of the things Belinda does in her adventure.
As always, Lois Wickman’s books are a great read for children!

Talisman: The Talisman SeriesTalisman: The Talisman Series by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Talisman is the exciting first book in the Talisman series of Celtic Urban Fantasy Romance. It utilises the soulmate trope – every warrior has to find his talisman between the age of 21 and 28 or face dire consequences. Rowan, the warrior in this book, is 3 months from his 28th birthday so the pressure is on.
This is a captivating story, with plenty of world-building drawing on Celtic history, culture and mythology. There’s lots of action, as Rowan and Alyssa face supernatural forces determined to keep them apart. There’s also plenty of research scenes as Alyssa works on her masters thesis and tries to learn more about her family history!
This is the perfect read for when you’re staying warm with a snow storm outside, would definitely recommend it! Although don’t feel like you have to wait for snow to enjoy it. Talisman gets five stars from me and if you enjoy urban and Celtic fantasy I’m sure you’ll love it!

April and Thomas shared an out of this world experience in the first book. Now they are both ready to go back and explore more. After research and hard work, April believes she has found them a way back. The planning into this trip is a bit more than before, but now they will not be starting close to home. Once everything is in place the two are off. They hope to visit Flick and explore areas they didnt get to last time. Once the two pass through the entrance they realize this may not be as simple as they thought. Sand like substance as far as the eye can see, no evidence of the ocean they expected. Just how much time had passed in this place? Will they be able to complete they trip they planned? Will Flick still be alive? Will his planet even exist not? What will they experience on this trip?

Stevens did an amazing job picking up from where the first story left off. The story draws you in from the start keeping you emerged throughout. I can not wait to see how this trilogy rounds out. It is defiantly worth the right though I do suggest starting with book 1.

Growing up to stories of Vampires Alessia developed a soft spot. This however, does not mean when Master Catteneo comes knocking, looking for her grandma, to have a reading done using the scarf a missing mate, she will back down in defense of her ailing grandma. She has a few powers of her own. Sparks fly between the two. Will Catteneo get the reading he so desperately needs? Will Alessia and Catteneo be able to work together? Will they give in to the draw of the other? Will they be able to find the missing mates?

I thoroughly enjoyed this installment of the Masters of the Consulate series. Black has continued to keep you drawn into the story will great characters and story lines. I do wish there was a bit more backstory for Catteneo. While this and all the others in the series can be read as stand alone, I would read them in order as there is a story line continued through all. I would recommend giving this whole series a read. I don’t think you will be disappointed.

Abi had been helping to care for her sister as well as pay down her sister’s medical debt. For Abi, that currently means working three jobs so when the chance to make some money as well as figure out who she is when she isn’t helping her sister comes up, it is worth a try. The catch? She has to marry a stranger for at least three months.

Finn is an actor with a tarnished reputation. His agent advises him to agree to the reality TV show as a way to show a different side of himself and a bonus help his reputation. Finn agrees planning to treat the experience like it is just another acting job.

Both Finn and Abi have their own reasons for doing the show, but will they make it to the end? Will they get along? Like each other? Find the other attractive? Will the two be able to make the next three months easy or will personalities clash making for a miserable time?

This was the first book by Bevan I have read, and I can’t wait to pick up my next. The story had a little bit of everything. I would recommend reading Abi and Finn’s story.

Abi is an everyday woman. Finn is Hollywood royalty. They had never met, until it was time to get married!

The blurb I read seemed a bit unrealistic, but I am so glad I read this book! At the beginning, Abi appreciates Finn’s beauty, but…that’s about it. There aren’t a lot of desirable qualities to start with, but you keep seeing him in between all the attitude. By the end, I was rooting hard for Finn and Abi and really loved how deep and well written they are.

Great characters, fun world building…read this book!

This book was fantastic. I loved the ferocity of Emelia. She is not one mafia princess that I would mess with. Best book of the series so far!!!

Emelia knew she was in danger when her father told her and her brother to flee. When she was found Emelia thought it was the end. Little did she know it was just the beginning.

Dominic was a vicious soldier and knew what he needed to do. Dominic thought he was lucky to capture the two youngest DeRosa children. He knew his Don would be pleased, they would have the edge. But things never go to plan. Not only that, a strange protective instinct when it comes to Emelia has blossomed. Dominic will do what he has to do to save his family but will that cost him his new obsession, Emelia?

I loved the action, the banter, the tenderness Dom shows, the cunning Emelia possesses and all of it. Emelia is badass!!! I absolutely despise what happened to Leo. My heart ached for Emelia. I can’t wait for the wedding!! Totally loving this series!!

I am a big fan of anything that feels like time-travel. Romance makes it even better. I could feel the chemistry between these two. All the characters were done well and just all tied in to the story in such a way to entertain. My husband kept wanting to know what I was reading because I kept smiling as I read. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the series as this is book !.
