This book is part of a series, but a great stand-alone read. This is a classic who-done-it and it has mysteries within the mystery. The characters are well- developed, and the plot moves along at a good pace. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes a good, clean, book in which the author does not have to resort to sordid details (that is the plot device of a poor story). This is an excellent mystery, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time with the characters.

Mann – Review by Alison Risher
This is my first audio book by this author and I look forward to more in the future. I enjoyed the narrator’s tone of voice as well as their ability to keep the story engaging. The characters are connectable and add so much to the story. I really enjoyed them and what they brought to the story. I also enjoyed how the narrator brought so much life to the twists and turns that it had me coming back for more. A story of a recovery mission to save a father and a daughter determined to save him. A story with great growth and one I enjoyed listening to for sure. I highly recommend this audiobook.

Without giving away any plot points, I think I can safely say that the author has managed to delve into yet another aspect of humanity. Issues that the world experienced prior to their pandemic, resurface a few years later. It appears that some people learn from history’s greatest mistakes, while others refuse to do so. The author explores humanity’s vulnerability. This series is a great read!

Soleil aka Sunny and Tille are best friends and Soleil is on her way to visit in LA but Tillue’s house is being fumigated so they’re going stay in her “ big” brothers house , the very same one that our girl has been crushing in mist of her life 🔥 her saving grace is that he won’t be home or so they think …..
Tripp comes home early from a mission , he’s tired and just wants to crash so imagine his surprise when he finds a warm body in his bed and it’s not who he expects 🔥🙈🤣
Soleil needs the help of the Garza brothers and their company Red Cage to find out her real identity and before they can even get started trouble comes their way , someone doesn’t want them finding out the truth …..
Soleil is something of an internet sensation with her own fitness show but she’s safe as long as Tripp and the boys have eyes on her ….
Tripp is so irritated by her presence but it’s because he wants what he can’t have and the tension between these had my kindle almost melting at times because they’re poetry in motion these 2 😉 there’s time for laughs as well and the banter between these 2 had me in stitches 🙈
Tripp is so protective of Soleil and her story is a sad one but he’s there when she needs him most ❣️ I really enjoyed them but I’m nosy as to to Tillie’s Mr X is , I’ve my suspicions and I hope I’m right but I’m sitting on the edge of my seat , holding my breath in great anxiousness 😉

5 Stars How To Write A Historical Novel And Love It by TL Clark
How To Write A Historical Novel and Love It is a wonderfully written step by step guide to writing a historical story you’ve always wanted to write. I loved everything about this book the way it felt like she was explaining every step to me and giving me guidance on not only researching and writing but the publishing part as well. I greatly appreciate this author taking the time to write this wonderful guide you can tell she put her heart and soul into it. I highly recommend reading this book. I learned a lot and definitely have a much higher understanding of what authors go through to get these books out. I look forward to reading many more books by this author

Where do you start with this book? The chemistry between Jack and Isaac is palpable through the pages. The action is spine tingling. The drama is and the feels are so nerve wracking. That scene with Vivi and Emilio, I wanted to punch him so bad. The family bond is so sweet and yet, suffocating.
After an amazing graduation weekend in Chicago, Isaac returned to the Big Easy and family business missing the woman who captivated his heart, body and soul. Maybe he should have told her his real name. Now it is five years later and a long-time family friend is asking for a favor, to protect his daughter and granddaughter.
Five years after the best weekend of her life gave her the best gift in her life, Giacomina “Jack” is spirited away to New Orleans to be protected by her father’s friends during a family crisis. Upon walking into the office, Jack finds an older version of the man that gave her Viviana. Then meets Isaac. Imagine Isaac’s surprise when he sees Jack and then his own eyes on a little girl. But Jack’s arrival brings danger with her. Now Isaac must risk himself and his family’s plans to protect Jack and their future together.
Between the action, the drama, the steam, the heat, and the banter, this book is unputdownable. If this is where you are starting your journey with this family, that is fine. You will find that it is easy to catch up. And will only make you want to binge read EVERYTHING!!! Pull up your chair at Nana’s table for Sunday dinner, all Hawkes family members welcome!

This fantasy story was the first that I have read by this author and I enjoyed it. The writing style was good and I was entertained throughout the whole of the story. It was creative and I enjoyed the fast paced storyline. It had action , betrayal and pesky little assassins. I am looking forward to more by this author in the future! Happy Reading!

What a wonderful read! Dean and Rae have tons of things to work through but reading their journey was great even through the hard times. I love a good slow burn/ enemies to romance book! It’s two of my favorite tropes and this book definitely didn’t disappoint. Great characters and a well written story! I wish I could read it again for the first time!

Good grief if the cover alone was anything to go I’d tell you now to get your ice chips and fan on hand so that you don’t melt 🤣🙈🔥
This is the second read , different author , that I started and restarted after i redefined a word which adds a whole new dimension to the title and story within … well it made a difference for me ❣️📚
Whitney has a gift of sorts , she’s inherited it from her grandmother, anyhoo she can hear peoples thoughts and she can help them heal and there’s a woman’s voice that reaches out to her for help , a voice that needs to set the record straight, a voice that needs to heal a vengeful heart , a voice that needs to heal the hurt …..
Juliana came from an affluent and powerful family so her father was not in favour of the love she shared with Dominic so when disappears after an argument it’s easy for “ daddy dearest” to blame it on Dominic and despite the fact that he’s found not guilty 2 years later , Dominic had not only lost the love of his his but he’s also lost 2 years of life , he’s determined to crawl his way to the top and with a full of vengeance it makes for riveting reading and a man I would not want to upset …..
Whitney looks so much like Juliana so when her path crossed with that of Dominic she tastes his ire firsthand and he doesn’t hold back , he’s hurt , he’s angry , he’s cruel and Whitney better have her wits about her , Dominic is not an easy man …,
I had mixed feelings about Dominic …. First I lived him then I hated him and then I just fell in love with him again ❣️😂🙈 as for Whitney , she’s a strong , patient , compassionate and brave woman she was a healing balm of sorts 🫶🏼
A hot , spicy , twisted read that earns every star of its five star rating 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Rae is sent in to interview a property owner and write an article about a home when the original woman gets sick. However, the man at the house is not expecting her. He is rude and arrogant…and good looking…and did I mention arrogant? Dean is intrigued by the woman trespassing on his property. When he finds out the reason she is there, he entertains her for the weekend with thoughts of never seeing her again.
When their paths cross again, they start building a friendship…and, later, a relationship. But the betrayal from Dean’s past and the abandonment issues from Rae’s past keeps them from opening up completely to each other. This creates roadblocks that they can’t seem to overcome. When Rae shuts him Dean out completely, there is nothing he won’t do to tell her the truth…but is Rae willing to listen? Or has she closed off her heart forever?
This was a good story. It is a slow-burn that requires the main character to really work for it. There is a lot of emotional baggage to wade through, from both of them…but it feels so real because they are things that normal people go through in their own relationships. I could literally feel the highs and lows of the characters (and wanted to slap Dean upside the head a few times). I found myself immersed into their story and was rooting for them to find their happy endings.

Alam – Review by Rosanna Ingram
His Forever Muse is book two in CR Alam’s The Echo Series. I fell for Brandon in book one. The romantic famous best friend. He just wants his happily ever after and he truly deserves it. Callie has had a hard time letting go from a hard past. There was a lot of character growth in this story from Callie. I enjoyed the second chance storyline between these two. It felt like any fantasy where you want to fall for the lead of your favorite band. I’m happy that Brandon got his story and that it was just what he needed. Very steamy spicy scenes. I feel like book two was much better than book one – though that is strictly personal preference.

Alam – Review by Kristan Anderson
Cash and Hollis own businesses next to each other…and have been trading pranks back and forth pretty much since Hollis opened up her pet grooming shop. They have all been harmless…until the latest one is going to cost Cash thousands of dollars. Feeling guilty, Hollis does whatever she can to help. However, working together causes their hate toward each other to turn into lust and, boy, do these to have chemistry that is off the charts. But, when the truth comes out about what is really going on, can these two trust each other? Or did a line get crossed that they can never come back from?
I enjoyed the banter between these two. While the pranks described are childish and humorous, I couldn’t believe that Hollis would take it that far. Watching her do whatever she could to help out, and ease her own guilt…and watching Cash take on the responsibility on his shoulders so others wouldn’t suffer…reminds me of what being the oldest child is like (even if Cash isn’t technically the oldest). It’s something ingrained in our brains and it is hard to turn off. These two worked through it in a way that felt so real! Overall, a good book that I enjoyed reading.

The need for closure and the need for trust. It is all so real. WONDERFUL story. I cannot wait to read the second book in this series.

Falling Home is such a cozy romance story. Ginny left her husband behind to follow her promising career. When she comes back home to take care of her dad, she never expected to find Max in her dad’s house. I absolutely enjoyed reading Ginny’s quest to discover who she is and where she belongs. If you enjoy small town romance, then this is the book for you.

What attracted me to this first was the Celtic origins/theme because I’ve Welsh blood pumping through my veins 🏴❣️then there’s the cover 🙈🔥what a delectable combination 😉
I started reading , stopped and redefined the meaning I’df a Talisman and the started reading again and call me strange if you like but it took on a whole different dimension for me ❣️📚
So a talisman is a trinket or piece of jewellery thought to be protection against evil . Rowan needs to find his by his 28th birthday or our time and space bending warrior might face death or a fate far worse 🙈
Alyssa was raised be her grandmother from a young age after loosing her parents and she has no knowledge of her heritage which is both a good and a bad thing but it would’ve really helped if she knew because when she’s thrown into the deep end she has limited time to catch up , it’s her and Rowan against the world , well the fate of mankind sort of depends on them #nopressure#
When their paths cross I think Alyssa just assumed Rowan was trying to get into her dress but soon enough things get very real , dangerous , romantic , twisted and spicy . A read with a difference that I didn’t know I needed ❣️📚

In this guide, T.L. Clark wrote like a friend talking to me across the dinner table. They gave many facts about the how, when, what, and why of writing, with a bit of humor and knowledge from her own experience. The author explores each aspect of writing a book, from characters to publishing to picking the time frame of the story and researching accurate data. I have always wanted to write a book, and this gave me the tools to do just that. If you are interested in becoming an author, or interested in the process, read this book first.

This contemporary romance takes us to the story of Dean and Rae. Story is very captivating from the very beginning and just makes you want to keep reading. Dean, who was stood up at his wedding a couple of years ago, has been truly invested in his very successful career but has left something that has been missing in his life. Rae, a product of a divorced family, has seen the devastating effects of the divorce on her mother and vows not to put herself through love’s end result. At a chance weekend meeting, both Rae and Dean meet in-person and in ways are intrigued with each other’s presence. It was quite an experience to see Rae and Dean’s connection unravel into a romance through the challenges brought along the way. I am definitely looking out for the next novel in this series!

Echoing Hearts was such an amazing romance book. This was my first book I read by this author and I was not disappointed. She had my attention from the beginning to the end.

Echoing Hearts by C.R. Alam is available now in Paperback and eBook ⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review
Echoing Hearts is the first installment of the Echo series. C.R. Alam loves to write heartfelt and steamy love stories that feature characters her readers would root for. Echoing Hearts definitely does not fall short in either of those categories. This enemies to lovers romance features two amazing characters who are vulnerable, stubborn, and struggle with relationship insecurities. Dean and Rae were lovable and relatable. At times I wanted to shake some sense into Dean and make him realize how crazy he was being. But in the end I found myself rooting for their relationship all the way. They both deserved to be happy. I can’t wait to see what book 2 brings to the table.

The author shares enough personality in character development to feel a connection to the main characters. There is a balance within the romance that made this an easy to read book. While some of the storyline wasn’t relatable, which I typically prefer, it was still enjoyable to read. Definitely a quick read worth your time.

Definitely a fan of this author. I thought this book was well written and so enjoyed it, I felt like there was something kissing though. I liked the characters, I feel Like the book just moved to fast. I feel like Walt and Elyse didn’t really have anything leading up to New Year’s Eve. With all of that being said I did enjoy reading this book.

Ruthless Hawke (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 1) By Gwyn McNamee 4 Stars
Five years ago, Isaac had an unforgettable weekend. He met the woman of his dreams and lost her. Although he tried everything in his power to find her, he was unsuccessful. Life went on and he took over protecting his family in the courtroom and otherwise. One day he comes back from work to find her standing in his father’s office. A woman that needs protection and she’s not alone. The prettiest little girl with his eyes is staring at him. Speechless that she magically appeared and stunned to find out that he is a father. Overwhelmed with all kinds of emotions, he realizes that he will do anything to protect what’s his.
I loved these two in the prequel to this book and continued to love them in this one. I admit that I was a little frustrated with Jack and her seesawing emotions . Under the circumstances though I can understand. The book is filled with love, tension and drama. It really is worth the read.

I loved reading another book set in the small town of Buckeye Falls. This is the second book in the series, but it follows different characters and starts up right after the first book. The characters from the first book are all scattered throughout so that we can keep an eye on Max, Ginny, Harold, Natalie, and Anthony. In this book, we get to know Cece and Evan who work with Max at the diner. Cece is pretty closed off in the first book and we get to learn more about her past and what brought her to the small town. Why she has a fancy degree but loves the diner, why she doesn’t want to date coworkers, and why a big celebrity chef coming to town throws her into a panic. We also get to know Evan and why he decided not to follow in his dad’s footsteps as a big web developer but instead settled in Buckeye Falls. This is a fun, quick, clean romance book and I was excited to see that a third book is coming and will follow Natalie. I hope more come too because I’d love to get to know Evan’s sister, Mallory, more!
