This book is book two of the series. It can be read as a standalone. If you are looking for a spicy m/f/m romance this one is for you.
Jocelyn is struggling after the death of her mother. She can’t handle the guilt she feels so she pushes everyone close to her away. Her dreams are trying to tell her something but it can’t be real right? They are dreams after all. Cameron dreams of Jocelyn every night. He’s not sure the significance but he’s always seen things others haven’t. His dreams take a turn when Reed makes an appearance as well. Will these three connect or are these dreams just that?
This wasn’t a book I’d typically read but it was really well written and pulled me in. It didn’t lag anywhere and the story was engaging. I’m glad I picked it up!

Cute kids story with some good lessons attached. Loretta’s love for nature and all within it show the joy all kids can experience outside. Both my 4 and 8 year old loved reading this book

Isla did an amazing job writing this book. I do recommend that you read Savage Start before this book so you know all about the history between Cole and Riley.
Cole is the man at school. He is rich, good-looking, a star athlete, and part of the elite group. Riley is the girl that has never really called on place home for longer than a few months. She is used to being ready to move at the drop of a hat.
Riley comes back to Santa Monica and the history she left behind with Cole. Can the past be forgotten or will he still hold onto that same grudge? Cole is used to getting his way and having people hang on to his every word and listen to him. Riley is not that kind of girl she is not afraid to push back against him.
Is there really a thin line between love and hate? Can you mend something that was broken before it even started? Can you really just get someone out of your system? High school is not easy with all of the emotions that come along with it. Read this book to find out if Cole and Riley can figure out high school relationships. Beware all is fair in love and war.

A wonderful book to read. The character development and the storyline were well thought out and executed.
This book is about Cole and Riley. Riley is a girl that is not used to staying in one place for very long. She is used to not getting to know people too well because she knows that she will inevitably leave them sooner rather than later. Cole is the guy that everyone thinks has everything in the world and the best of the best. As well as being a high school athlete his life is not all that it seems to be from the outside looking in.
What happens when the jock meets a stubborn girl. In this story first impressions are important and the impressions that these two made on each other were not great. Enemies from the first talk are definitely how these two started out.
Read this book to find out, what really goes on behind closed doors of the perfect family. What causes a high school girl to have been to more schools and new places than some people move in their lifetime? Can you build trust from something that started with lies and hatred? Read this wonderful book to find out.
C. R. Alam’s book His Forever Muse, The Echo Series Book #2 continues the story of Brandon and unfolds the mystery behind the one that stole his heart, which was hinted at in Book #1. I love that this book opens with Rae and Dean having their first child Maya and the fact that Brandon got to be there with Rae when she needed him most. Watching their happiness, Brandon is reminded that something is missing in his life, and this leads him to travel around the world searching for what he is missing. What a coincidence that he runs into Callie (Curtis’s big sister, who Brandon hasn’t seen in 15 years) while he is visiting Chris at his resort in Morrocco. Will Brandon be able to reconnect with his long-lost love, or will her haunted past pull her away from her past love? What is she hiding from Brandon, and her family, that caused her to go quiet for all these years? If you are a fan of The Echo Series, this is a must-read that jumps right in with the drama, the romance, and the amazingly developed characters that we have grown to know and love as well as some new ones that we get to meet. @Brandy Rymer 04/2023

Alam – Review by Brandy Rymer
Noah Reagan has always dreamed of making it big—for science. A place in The Summer with Supers Youth Program would provide him with just that. Popularity, respect, and maybe even a bully-free semester.
But when Lincoln City’s mutant infestation leaves Noah’s dreams crushed beneath a pile of rubble, he’s forced to spend the summer working for his dad’s failing Mega-Maintenance company, cleaning up after the very creatures that have stolen his freedom.
With the real heroes battling back the incoming hordes, Noah begins his investigation into the madness fueling the monsters, hoping to end the mega-meltdowns before his last chances of a super summer are swept into the dustbin.
Though, with the mastermind holding the keys to Noah’s dreams, interfering may doom him to an off-brand existence, and a future of atomic wedgies, forever.

5 Stars Doctor Frank Enstein (Doctors of Eastport General) by C.A. King
Doctor Frank Enstein (Doctors of Eastport General) is a wonderfully written Contemporary Romance that once you start reading there’s no putting it down until you’ve finished. I pretty much devoured this book in one sitting. I’m a huge of this author and have read several books by her but this one definitely tops my favorite yet list. This is Frank and Barbara’s story. Dr. Frank Enstein is a Plastic Surgeon who wants to helpmake a difference in his patients lives. He has the passion but he lacks the proper bedside manner and doesn’t always make a good first impression. Barba just wants to feel normal and hopes Frank can her with that. She’s not impressed with him at firsy but man the chemistry between them sizzles. These two are such well developed characters that make the story come to life. Can Frank help her to feel normal? I highly recommend reading this fast paced story to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

King – Review by Dawn Daughenbaugh
Savage Lies is the 2nd book in the Hidden Valley Elite series (It says book 1, but there is a prequel Savage Start, which is worth reading too). I was hooked on this series instantly. Aside from the awkwardness of reading steamy scenes between teenagers, this series is perfect. There is a good mix balance of romance and mystery. Both Riley and Cole are well developed and strong characters. Riley and her mom have a life of baggage and have lived on the run as con=artists for the last 15+ years. Now her mom says they are done and things are different. Riley is having a hard adjustment and is waiting for the other shoe to drop. She has a love hate relationship with her soon to be step brother, literally. The ending was total cliff hanger so on to the next book!!

Notebook Mysteries: Suspicions is the 5th book in the Notebook Mysteries series. It’s set in January 1889, and Emma and her team back to solving mysteries. This can be enjoyed as a standalone, but I think that it would be more beneficial to read 1-4 first. I know I wish I would have. In this book, Emma & the team is busy with multiple cases going on, as well as the return of someone from her past. I really enjoyed reading this book. If you enjoy mystery and historical fiction with a strong female lead, then you will also enjoy this book!

Gwen is a character that I would want to be friends with. Sassy, strong and independent, she’s back and just wants to do her business. I found this to be quite the story. I loved it because it wasn’t your basic cookie cutter. It’s unique, creative and full of paranormal goodies in the story. I love a hot werewolf too. I’ve been naughty. Lock me up. You can feel the intensity of the emotions throughout the story. I found everything so entertaining and intriguing that I stayed up late to finish it. Well worth losing sleep over. I can’t wait to read more. Bring on more of this deliciousness. Listening to this on audio was a treat. The narrator made it even better because her tone and narrating made it sound like she was from down south. It was just made the story even more enjoyable, and I just didn’t think that was possible. The writing is good, the characters are crazy and it has a paranormal flow that you just roll with. I loved it. I had to sit and listen in one sitting.

This was an informative historical fiction read about a time period, family, and historical aspects I have read little about. The author, Jennifer Laam, does an excellent job incorporating factual information with a fictionalized story line of Olga and her family.
The tense and secluded atmosphere the book creates provides tension and tells the “other” side of the story- the more human side- as the four sisters (as well as other characters along the way) try to survive after being smuggled out of Russia during the Romanov era. The emotions and feelings of the characters are enhanced by the descriptions of the settings and daily life the girls (and others) must endure. A 4-and-a-half star read for me!

Oh, my word! What a wonderful, beautiful story! A pampered young woman is betrayed by family and left to fend for herself in a patriarchal world. She learns to do things for herself, and for others. At the same time, she learns to fall in love. Although she falls in love, she still plans to provide for herself and earn her own income. This a lesson for all women, especially modern women of today.

I really enjoyed this story. It portrayed what many mothers/wives go through – how often we give everything of ourselves to our families, friends, jobs and lose a bit of ourself in the process. This story tugged at my heart – I could feel what each character was feeling and just wanted to help make it all better. Julie and Micheal had a great start to their married life – twin girls, a son… but when death takes someone from our life at an unexpected time, it is hard to pretend that things were okay before the death and that they can go on after. The family each has their own grief and guilt to work through… but it is even more than that. It is realizing that letting go, giving space, and finding yourself is what keeps you together.

I normally don’t read vampire romances, but a reading challenge prompted me to broaden my horizons, and I ended up unexpectedly enjoying Dawnbreaker. Chronicling the challenges of Niamh, the author expertly combines a magical world with the real world, and trials and tribulations of standing up to blood family versus a family she loves. Her love and counterpart, released vampire Connor, is likable because of turning his whole live into protecting his true love.
One outstanding feature of the book is Thorne’s ability to succinctly describe even the minor characters in the book, making it feel as you are part of the world Niamh is creating for herself.
My only hope is there is a sequel planned, because I felt the ending was lacking, and very much appears to set up for a sequel. I also enjoyed the author’s inclusion of the music playlist at the end of the book, music being a central theme interwoven throughout the book.

I have been waiting for this one…only to devour it in less than 24 hours. And then I might have thrown a temper tantrum because now I must wait (again) for Savage Truth, but I digress.
Riley returns to California and to an unsuspecting Cole at the beginning of a new school year. We are treated to plenty of drama and a bit of suspense as we try to figure out who is lying and where the truth does lie.
Friendships are formed. Allegiances are somewhat formed. Enemy lines are drawn, I mean this is high school and there must be a mean girl and some bullying, right?
Cole and Riley are beginning to suspect that not all has been black and white in their world and secrets may start unraveling.

Dr Enstein has tunnel vision. He has always had an agenda for his life. Well at least since the traumatic event when he was a child. When he was presented to run his own trauma center at the local hospital he jumps on it. While out with his co-workers he encounters Barbara the bartender. Dr. Enstein first meeting with Barbara did not go well. He was rude and at the 2nd encounter with her he starts to feel bad. As time goes on he realizes while he cannot personally help Barbara his old partner could. As time goes on, he realizes he has fallen for Barbara and she is what he wants.
As I read this story, my heart broke for not only the kid but the man he had become. I could only imagine how traumatized any one would be. The author pulls on your heart with trauma, love, and determination. Teaches you not to judge someone by their appearance.

I really enjoyed this fantasy romance. The author does a amazing job with world building and also giving the characters backstories which makes you feel like you have known them for years even though its the first book. I loved the twist of a vampire and a Fae romance but it works and is such a powerful story. They are two people who you wouldn’t think work but fate has other plans for them. Will Niamh be the person to make Connor feel alive again? This isn’t a straightforward romance however with a strained relationship between Niamh and her mum putting pressure and disapproval on their relationship, things take a darker turn when Niamh is taken and her memory lost and she is left in the world of man. Can Connor find her in time and remind her of who she is and what they share? This is a fast paced story which a blossoming romance, danger, folklore and myths. A collection of elements that all work together and make this story a very unique read.

Princess Zarina is the youngest member of her royal family. She does not like to take no for an answer and is used to getting her own way. When Princess Zarina wants a special dress for her Royal Advancement Ceremony, she is determined to make sure it is unique and stands out from everyone else’s dress. She finds a mysterious seamstress that has a reputation for making special dresses and makes a deal with her.
Princess Zarina does not get the beautiful dress she asked for and instead gets a black dress that she hates. When the seamstress asks Princess Zarina to try on the dress, she becomes trapped in it. The seamstress gives Princess Zarina a mysterious message about the dress’ magical qualities before she disappears. Princess Zarina is now on her own and it is up to her to find her way back to the castle. Along the way she learns what the magical qualities of the dress are and uses it to try to avoid being captured by the raiders who have taken over the castle and killed the King and Queen.
The storyline of this book was intriguing, and I loved the way the author weaved the story of Princess Zarina and her journey. Through the book Princess Zarina grows and matures through a series of adventures and life lessons. She starts off as being spoiled, self-centered, and strong-willed but learns what is truly important in life. The author did an amazing job of discussing some real-world life lessons while doing it in a fun, easy-to-read book for children of all ages.

From the looks of it, the answer is both. These two have had a multitude of trauma in their lives and their parents are not helping.

White Picket Fences is a contemporary fictional story of loss, love and life and the debut book by Kyle. It is a family drama full of regret and sadness. White Picket Fences looks at the dynamics and complexities of family, marriage and one’s place in it all.
It is a story that many will relate to. I think everyone in a marriage at some point feel like they are not appreciated and taken for granted and at times almost invisible. When looking at the person in the mirror is not someone you recognise anymore, and this is what our MC goes through in this story.
There are a lot of emotions in this heartfelt and gripping tale where one person’s actions change all that they know. Where tragedy becomes a heavy burden to bear. Where everything starts to unravel. Where everything you want to keep you push further away.
Can they ever get back to forever? You will have to read it to see what this family goes through.

Fantastic book! Niamh and Connor have an amazing adventure. I have not really read a Fae story even remotely close to this. The whole premise of this *blew* my mind. Fae and vampire, amazingly well-written. The author tries to give us some backstory, even with this being a first book. I loved the characters. I want to see Kyle get more. I was entertained and couldn’t put the book down. Niamh and her mom, the Queen, now that drama, who can’t relate? Mother/daughter drama… A page turning story that will grab you right from the get go. I loved how the story pulls you in. The Fae are scattered throughout the story and within the two worlds. This is a must read.

Julie is just trying to do the right thing and put her family together again after the loss of her son, Curtis. Oh my, that family would make me lose my mind. I have to say that I would do what she did also. I mean, I could not fathom that type of loss but still… The writing is beautifully done as the author transports us back and forth from the tragedy to current times. We see how the how family adjusts. It’s a lot and you feel all the emotions they are going through. The characters are well-written. Her win daughters are so relatable. I think the only semi-normal one is Roger. I did feel as if I was intruding on a private moment but that is what makes it a wonderfully done family book. Love it. 5 stars for sure. Definitely on my Best of the year for sure!
Bully, Enemy to lovers romance I really enjoyed the sneak peek into Cole and Riley’s life in Savage Start which set the foundation for this book. What an emotional roller coaster. The author builds the tension, angst and highly intense emotions so well. With a mix of scandals, family drama and darkness intermingled with romance and high school. There is still more to come for Riley and Cole in book 2- which I can’t wait to read. Highly recommend.

Romantic and deep This is the second book in The Echo Series and I really enjoyed the friends-to-lovers complicated second-chance romance. The layers of the story were delivered seamlessly and the characters well developed. I was vested in Brandon and Callie from start to finish. I think I enjoyed this even more than book one , which makes me even more excited for book 3. Highly recommend.

Brandon is missing something in his life, although he is successful in his career he has lost something inside who drives his creative flare. When he sees everyone around him falling in love and having there forever lives he wishes he could find that himself and then complete the half that’s missing.
While talking about his unsettled spirit his friend, Rae suggests while the band in on a break for him to go and explore the world and try and centre himself to find the missing link. Although he was not expecting that to be in the shape of a blast from his past, Callie.
Callie has had a past she would rather forget, although she has a life she has always wanted there is always that fear deep down it will all be taken away from her, so when a business trip throws her back in her past and the one man who got away, has she got the strength and trust to follow her heart.
As Brandon and Callie reconnect can they both overcome there own histories to make a new future with each other?
Oh my lord, this book was explosive and well written with the story that powers along and draws you into the story and feel every emotion which is felt with each character. This story has triggers of abuse but the writing is brilliant and you end up heartbroken for Callie and feel like she deserves Brandon and that only thing of “What if” is a potent emotion.
I have always wanted to see if Brandon got his true one as I loved his character in book 1 and his optimism in that story, so it was wonderful and heart breaking in this story. Callie was a great equal to Brandon and her strength of character came across within the writing and words written, the emotions you have reading the past of her was just gut wrenching but it is great to see her have a happily ever after.
I can’t wait to read the next book for Chris’s story, he pops in and out of the first two books but there is a brilliant story just under the surface which I can’t wait to read.
