Twisted Proposal (Central Florida Stories Book 3) by Victoria Saccenti 4 Stars
I have read a few books from this author and always enjoyed them. Unfortunately this is the first book in this series that I have read. It was really good and now I have to go back and read the others. Although part of a series, this can be read as a stand-alone. Ethan had a bad experience with his ex and he swore that he would get revenge. Along comes Siena and the perfect plan unfolded. Siena unknowingly threw a wrench in his plans, he fell for her. Ethan is a dominant and Siena is the perfect submissive, his light to his dark. They are puzzle pieces that fit perfectly together. Surrounding circumstances put her in danger which finally makes him realize how much he cares. Will they get a chance at a happily ever after or will the fates cheat him again?
I’ve always enjoyed erotic romances. Throw a bit of BDSM into the mix and I’m happy. This story was darkly erotic and twisted. It leaned towards the sadist/ masochist side of BDSM. Although I couldn’t connect to that part of the story, I enjoyed the book nonetheless.

What a cute story. This story was so true of children and their first days of school, no matter what age or grade. All parents and teachers are to set the best example to our children. Making their school experience joyful. This author played it out in her story. Shining a well written light on our educators. The story covers all nationalities and sizes of people around the world. This is a must have for all libraries and home bookshelves.
It all started with a ball, a ball where hand picked and eligible young women have been invited to be appraised for their suitability to become the wife of the Prince of the Dutchmen Coven, but Prince Titan doesn’t want a wife, but he knows that time is running out and he has to, so he watches his mother, the Queen question the young women in front of the crowd. Rose Wolfbane is one of the women, but she isn’t there to marry Titan, she is there for her coven, the Wolfbane Coven who have been cursed by a coven of witches so that they are ruled by the phases of the moon and only one thing can break it and that thing lies somewhere in the Palace she is standing in.
As Titan observes each girl, he sees nothing and nobody who particularly stands out, that is until the last girl, as soon as he meets her eyes, he knows that she is more than she seems and invokes feelings which he never thought he would have, but also ones which complicate his mothers plans to marry him off because she is the absolutely least suitable for the role. As Rose takes her turn under the scrutiny of the Queen and Titan, she is more forthright and slightly more truthful than her cover story allowed, but she knows that if she stuck to just that, she would be found out far too quickly and she knows all too well what that would mean to herself and her coven, so when the royals decide to leave the ball early, she takes the opportunity to start her real mission and try to forget how handsome Titan really is.
As the days pass and Rose is no closer to finding out where her target object is, she is also trying not to step on the toes of the other ladies, but that is not easy when Titan seems to be singling her out and giving her the attention instead of the real contenders, meanwhile Titan is trying to figure out a way to get some time alone with Rose, but she is making it difficult for him when she appears and disappears all the time, but he is determined to figure her out and soon. In between finding favour with his female suitors, Titan is also trying to spend time with his father as he grows progressively weaker as the magic attachment to their kingdom slowly kills him, he just hopes that his father can hold on long enough for him to conceive an heir before he passes on.
Will Rose be able to find what she is looking for, or will Titan figure her out and use this to his advantage and what about the darkness within the other which both attracts and repels them all at the same time, will this become a problem which neither of them foresaw or expected? This is a romantic suspense with plenty of magic, intrigue and missions throughout which will keep you on your toes throughout and hooked until the end.

This is a clean romance. I haven’t read a clean romance in a bit, and this one was such a well written one. I truly liked Bailey, I felt that she had a great amount of sass and that she was a decent sport with her brother and his list. At first it kind of irked me that her brother had a list about the ways that she could just improve. However, the more I read and the more I thought, the idea really didn’t bother me at all. I don’t know anyone who has a perfect relationship with their siblings and when pressed they probably could produce a long list of ways they wish their sibling could improve. She goes on a date with Tanner due to her brother’s list and what happens next turns into a really wonderful book. This book was very light hearted with characters that definitely dealt with some problems that I could relate to.

I am truly beginning to think Nadija Mujagic is going to become one of my absolute favorite authors. Every book that I’ve read by her so far has not disappointed me at all and has been a read that I don’t want to put down. I definitely want to say that this book was absolutely fantastic. I read this in one day and definitely did not want to put it down. This is a fantastic psychological thriller filled with twists and turns. I absolutely loved the depiction of the small college town where this takes place. I feel like it perfectly depicts a college town from its charm to the people that live here. This is a story of a bullied child seeking revenge upon one of their bullies later in life. This plot sucks you in and doesn’t let you go until you finish it. This is absolutely a must read and will be a favorite of lovers of psychological thrillers!

This was a good read! This book is fiction, but I also feel like with the way some of the events were described that the authors did a really good job researching and historical facts to back up their story. This was an emotional read, and very well written for that. I thought it gave a very good insight into how the native Americans were treated throughout the colonizing. I look forward to reading the second book. This first one was left very open ended and I love to see where the story goes from there.

This is another fun and entertaining read by an author that knows how to create sweet romances. I think this book has to be one of my favourites by her and the characters are the reason. I loved Bailey and Tanner. Their connection grows over time and it is nice to see how much Bailey was surprised by him. I usually find a little harder to connect with the characters in a clean romance but I was really taken in by these two. The story was written perfectly for them too. It flowed well and had an easy reading pace to it. This was a thoroughly enjoyable book from a great author.

This is an engaging and entertaining book that teaches children the importance of taking care of themselves. It brings a new take on kindness that not all children will have thought about. I thought this book did a great job of opening up new topics for discussion that myself and my daughter hadn’t touched on before. I think the message in this book is one for adults to take note of as well. The best way to look after others is to make sure you look after yourself first. This was a great, educational book and should be shared with children.

Yet again anther really cute read form this author. I loved the illustrations in this book to they were nice and colourful and engaging. The story had a lovely rhyme to it which is great for children as well as the hidden message behind the story. It would be great talking point for children about how we treat people who are different and we should get to know everybody regardless of what they look like.

Between Darkness and Light is the third book in the War of Destiny series. Some old and new faces merge five years after Julia’s betrayal to Ka-tet as she tries to regain trust and repair old friendships. In desperation, Julia left Ka-tet and everyone she loved and trusted, to join Valentino, the Vampire King. Everything is in disarray and tensions are high with everyone believing Julia has lost her mind. Julia is also worried and stressed, not only about the failing friendships, but also fearful that the visions and whisperings will once again return. Maybe she IS losing her mind, after all of the traumas and experiences she has endured… Everyone is on edge, and Julia once again tries to approach their leader, finding that he has left. As an only resort, she seeks out Matthew, who is less than thrilled that she has come knocking. The pair soon realize that the leader is not where he normally would be and become concerned. It doesn’t take long to figure out Julia can track him down and Matthew hesitantly agrees to help. Before long, the visions return and Matthew is skeptical. Eventually they realize this is more than they anticipated, something dark is at play, and the course of destiny may very well be changing. Being forced to work together with the person he now despises the most, will Matthew come around? Will he let Julia explain her reasons, and will Julia make it to Samuel in time? I definitely recommend this series, it continues to grow and get more intense as time progresses! I rated the previous two books 4/5 but will give this a 5/5 since the characters continue to develop and the story grows on you. Definitely not sorry that I picked this series up!

When I first read the synopsis of this book I wasn’t sure I would like, I love rockstar romance reads but it didn’t grab my attention straight away but I am SO glad I did read it – this was an amazing read and definitely one of my favourite books this year. I didn’t feel like I would like Maria but I was so wrong, she was great female lead, she had a strength that I don’t even think she believed that she had and the chemistry between her and Oz was great. I really liked Oz as well, he wasn’t what I expected at all. Overall this was a great read, I absolutely loved it and I am definitely looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future.

I loved this story so much. It was a really great read. I had a thing for Laurent from the very beginning, he was such an honest and refreshing character. Phoebe was great too, I’ll admit I wasn’t too sure at first but she really did grow on me and I loved the chemistry that there was between them, it was so genuine and real. I do love a small town romance read too so this was definitely going to be a winner for me. I am so excited to read the rest of this series! Great story, wonderful characters and fantastic writing! I highly recommend this read!

Talks Like Thunder (Red With Native Blood Book 1) by Randal Nerhus & Marjorie Carter. This was such an amazing read. I enjoyed it and learned so much from it. Its the story of young Desert Flower whose parents have died from Small Pox so her grandfather kidnaps her and takes her back to his tribe. He renames her Talks Like Thunder and taking place in the 1800’s life was not easy for her or any of the Indians. She loved thru wars, boarding schools, famine and so much more. This all turns her into the strong, independent warrior that she is. When she is held captive by US soldiers she vows on everything she is to take revenge on each and everyone of them. Talks Like Thunder is such a strong young woman and I rooted, cried and cheered for her all the way thru this emotional, powerful story!

This is a great non-fiction autobiography. The experiences shared by the author are hearfelt and honest. The choices we make in life often have great consequences that we don’t think about, but also that we can learn from. Toby shows both sides of this statement in her book. How do you go on to live after making a mistake that has long term devestating consequences to reexamine and transform from that expereince?

Another cute story by Lois Wickstrom where she incorporates life lessons for kids into it. Chester doesn’t want to clean his room (what kids does) and so he compromises and says he’ll go clean the sandbox first. While out there, he meets the Messy Kids and whatever Chester does, they can do it bigger and better than him. They follow him into his room to clean and initially, they shove everything under the bed, but when Chester’s mom comes in and tells Chester that he knows better than that, the Messy Kids use their strengths to help Chester clean his room the right way. As always, I love that Wickstrom weaves lessons into her books and I love the illustrations.
This is a really cute story about Colleen and her dad and his job of holding up the sky. Colleen’s friends and their parents don’t actually believe that her dad holds up the sky so she invites them over to see. They still don’t believe her so her dad stops holding up the sky and begins to play with them. Nothing immediately beings to happen so Colleen begins to doubt her dad; however, subtle things start to go wrong so Colleen has to fix it. I really enjoy how Wickstrom is always able to weave life lessons into her stories. The illustrations for this book are fantastic as well.

This is the story of Desert Flower, a young girl who is living through the worst horror in our native history. Set in 1871, her life as an Apache begins with losing both parents to smallpox. As she grows she survives through wars, boarding schools, reservations and famine. In spite of the hardships she was born into, she becomes a strong and proud young woman who fights to save her family, her tribe and her land. This is a beautiful novella that only hints at the devastation inflicted upon our native tribes told through the eyes of an Apache teen. Family, honor and tragedy all form the development and growth of a girl to maturity. Five stars!

Toby Dorr is an amazing author to come forward with her side of the story. It must be hard for years to hold in all this and make a story of it. I give you 5 stars for that because it might not be easy. This story made me feel like loved it and did not agree with it. Love will always conquer any struggles in life and love will do crazy things but to free a person who needs to reflect in life, I have to put that down. This story did touch my heart because all she wanted to do is to be with her love and he did too.

Beautifully written This inspirational story follows Neyah and Abby as they form a bond through being pen pals. They discover that life has many challenges no matter where you live and what your circumstances are. This story reminds the reader about walking a mile in someone else’s shoes, and also that we are not alone. A great book for early teens and above. Recommend.

Enemies to lovers This is book 4 of the Hidden Valley Elite series and this is the conclusion of Skylar and Damon’s story. There is no holding back in this story for Damon. He goes all in. Skylar has to face some hard truths too. I loved this book and I love the whole series. The writing just draws you in. This author is a firm favourite. Bring on the next book. Highly recommend.

This was a decent read but why Bailey must listen to her over-involved, controlling brother Dayton, only 18 months older with his own set of issues? When I began this read, I seriously thought the main characters were teenagers because of how they acted, not those in their early 20s. While I understand the concept of this story is to see the maturity of Bailey grow and her becoming a decent human, I just didn’t enjoy how she began her growth journey and didn’t fully evolve her growth into an likeable character. I felt Dayton kept overstepping the brother role and hindering Bailey from actually self reflecting and learning on her own. The character I did enjoy was Tanner and I kept wanting him to run far, far away from the toxicity of Bailey and her brother. But alas, this is a feel good book so we must root for Bailey and Tanner to succeed in love and hopefully Bailey will hit a maturity level that matches her age soon or kick her brother to the curb and be her own individual self. I also enjoy Marnie and her ice cream matchmaking skill. That was a cute addition to this story.

5 Stars Brutal Nights (Hidden Valley Elite Book 4) by Isla Vaughn
Brutal Nights (Hidden Valley Elite Book 4) is a Enemies to Lover’s/Dark Romance that will have you turning the pages till the end. I highly recommend reading this series in order as each book plays off the last plus you get to know the characters better and whats been going on. Going in I kinda had an idea of how everything was going to play out. Some I was spot on while others no where close. Damon and Sky are both playing a deadly game when it comes to their hearts. Neither one wants to admit to the other how they really feel. Emotions run high in this conclusion to Damon and Sky’s story. Afraid I’ll give something away im going to highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m sad this series is over because I want more but super excited about this Author’s next series.

Very gripping, emotional recounting of life as the granddaughter of a prominent chief. How she grows up, trains, is taught, I was drawn into the story and learning about her life and all things it encompassed. I am really curious to see where the other books take us.

Having read the first book in this series, the author did not disappoint in delivering a horrific continuation of the story of Alda and the dark magic that consumes its world. Similar to the first book, it’s sectioned into almost a collection of short stories that build an overall world and characters and creatures unimaginable. The author’s detail of scenery, however, provides a clear picture of the horrors encountered. It is a slow and somewhat tedious read, but the way it unfolds along the way makes it so worth it, full of unpredictable twists that will make your jaw drop. I’m both scared and excited to see what happens next and I’m really rooting for some positive gains after the huge setback revealed in this leg of the journey.

Brutal Nights is book four of the Hidden Valley Elite set, but it’s book two of Damon and Skylar’s story. You definitely need to read the first book to their story, but I would personally recommend reading the whole set, in order. There are people and events mentioned that you will have a better understanding of with that knowledge before hand. Book three left off with a HUGE cliffhanger and book four doesn’t make you wait long to see the consequences of that encounter. You won’t want to put these books down until you know how each one ends! I’m not at all sad to say that I have given up some sleep with the “just one more chapter” line that turned into 4am reading easily. A couple times. LOL. Skylar (aka Sky) only wanted to finish up her senior year, write for the school blog, help out her friend Gia with her senior mission, and to go off to college. When Gia’s big mission turns into an undercover blackmail, things get messy for Sky quick. How did things get so crazy so quickly?? Damon (aka D) can’t help but like Sky. She’s the only girl to ever turn him down. She sets his world on fire and makes him blind to stuff. Blackmailing Sky and fake dating Gia seems like a great idea. Where can he go wrong with that arrangement? He hates Gia though. She talks to much, her perfume bugs him, and she’s super clingy. But as things get messy for Sky he doesn’t want out of the arrangement. He could care less about Gia except that he wants Sky. Getting caught in a web of lies with Gia, Sky becomes her best friend’s enemy and with that more problems. The school is on Gia’s side and with that Sky is on the no fly list. D has to put things right with her somehow. With Sky’s present crashing around her and her past sneaking up behind her, Sky is crushed by the weight of everything. Danger is coming and she and her mom need to get out of dodge quick! But will they be to late? Will Damon ruin his whole future over two girls? Will he finally settle his own demons? Will Sky stand up for herself? Or will she crumble at her past flashing back into her life and mind? So many things happen and this book will have you on your toes thinking about what might come next! If you like new adult, romance, enemies to lovers, super tense, spicy banter back and forth, and mega drama filled books then you will love this whole set!! It is so good! I have read two sets from this author now and I love them both!! I can not wait to finish this one!! I know that there are more great reads in my future. Grab these books!!

She has a good job and great friends to make her life run a bit smoother. The last person she expects to run into is someone she let go of a long time ago. There is a huge secret she had kept from him and it looks like the time has come to let everything out. Kyle is living his dream life playing a sport that he loves, but he is missing out on sharing it with the one that he loves. Fate steps in and puts her back in his path at a mutual friends wedding. Will they pick up where they left off or will Celia’s secret tear them apart forever? This is a feel good second chance romance. You are definitely rooting for the couple to work things out and end up together. This is the first book I have read by this author and really enjoyed her writing style. She does a great job of bringing out the emotions of the characters and making you feel what they feel. I can’t wait to read the other books in this series. <br/><br/> <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/106111308-charlisa-wahtomy-alba”>View all my reviews</a>

A perfect YA Rom Com. Super fun and entertaining and just different enough to keep you wanting more. It is a quick read and lots of laughs, while Bailey is finding herself and what is important to her. It is a definite must read. I can’t wait to share this with my nieces.

As a sports agent she gets along with everyone and gets the job done closing out deals. The one person she can’t tolerate, or so she keeps telling herself, is Noah Ashe. He’s done nothing to her to warrant such hatred except for walk in on her naked, save her life and then vanish. Noah had his reasons for vanishing and he has yet to share that with anyone but his therapist. Maybe Zara will be the first? After Zara said no to being his agent it has become his mission to annoy her. Due to unforseen circumstances Zara is asked to step in at the tale end of a deal by her good friend and Noah’s agent. The last thing either of them expected was to share a kiss at the end of the night. Noah is all for moving forward and having a possible relationship, but is Zara? In my opinion this book is too short, BUT it is good! The author made both characters very relatable and really brought their personalities to life. It was fun to see Zara come to the realization that she had romantic feelings for Noah and that she felt less lonely when he was around. Although this is part of a series you can read it as a stand alone. <br/><br/> <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/106111308-charlisa-wahtomy-alba”>View all my reviews</a>

This book was a DOOZY. A first for me from this author and DEFINITELY not the last. Wow wow wow. The characters were insanely good. The story line was perfectly attention capturing. I went on a vacation into this storyline and I was sad to come home when the last page ended… hot as sin chemistry and the best kind of dirty!
