Mystical Midlife Mate: A Paranormal Women's Fiction NovelMystical Midlife Mate: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel by Reggi Dupree
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Boudin, Barbecue, and Hoodoo series. I do highly recommend reading these books in order as this book picks up where the first book ended. This is an fast paced, engaging, Paranormal story filled with action, murder, mystery, fated mates and a whole lot more.
The characters that this author has created in what really brings the story to life for me. They are larger than life and literally jump off the page. Our main character Gwen is incrediable. She is funny and sassy and knows her own mind and isn’t afraid to speak it which sometimes gets her into worse trouble. Her attitude and banter with the other characters is what really makes me want to jump in and be a part of her circle of friends.
Things for Gwyn just keep getting more and more complicated. Not only can she see ghosts, lives with vampires and is approaching middle age and menopause she has now become a demon (full story in the first book) with this new addition to the problems she faces as well as magic from her father appearing Gwyn certainly has her hands full.
Add to this a smoking hot boyfriend who claims to be her fated mate whether she likes it or not and the fact he moves himself into her home to protect her from another threat that wants her dead her head is in a complete spin.

But that’s not all with her father’s return this brings up a whole load of questions mainly who can she actually trust? With everyone keeping secrets and hiding things can she trust anyone close to her anymore?

I loves how the author mixes the paranormal elements with something ordinary like a woman going through the menopause and the added complications and feelings that brings and the magical elements which had me hanging onto my seat wanting to stop the ride but unable to tear myself away until the end.
Amazing story, amazing characters. I loved it

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 3 in the series Tessa and Jordan. I have not read any of the rest of this series. This book was wonderful. Cade and Lindy’s story had me completely hooked. I could not put it down. I loved Lindy and how strong and determined she is. She is a force to be reckoned with that Cade quickly discovers.

This is the first book in the Heart & Hand Series and what a way to start. I could not put this book down. The story was so perfectly written. There were so many characters that I just absolutely fell in love. The story is about Anna and Lark, which is so full of twists and turns. Anna is such a strong woman that survives so much. I can not wait to read the next book in this series.

SargeSarge by Stuart Ledwith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had read Mission 3047 before this book, and I do recommend reading Sarge first as it gives insight as to who Sarge is. I really enjoyed a look back in time to how Sarge grew up, and what he went through to get to the place he is today and how he came into his line of work. It is nice to see he had Mr. Blackburn and Miss Hattie supporting him and encouraging him, I don’t know if he would be who he is without them. Sarge’s love story is sweet and devastating, and his life story is very entertaining and interesting.

Wolfbane (Wolfbane Series Book 1) by Celia Hart – Review by Jenni Bishop

/0 Comments/in /by

Wolfbane (Wolfbane #1)Wolfbane by Celia Hart
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Wolfbane is a paranormal romance novel and the first book in the Wolfbane series. I have not read anything by this author before and was unsure what I was going to get. Even though the book is 500 pages the plot itself is fast paced and the story flows well.
With true fated mates, werewolf lore, conservative religious beliefs, dupery and second chances this book has it all. There is also betrayal, lies, secrets, drama, angst, hurt, pain, hope, love and some violence.
Wolfbane is a story of a Love Square or Love Rectangle involving four people. Pitting friends against each other. What a twisted tale Celia has given us.
I got to say my heart and my head are all over the place with this one. Frustrated beyond belief with some of the characters and I wanted to slap the heck out of them or bodily harm. It didn’t grip me like I hoped it would and I think that is because of some of the characters.
Blake the future alpha had it all, but it was taken from him. Then he meets her, and things become quite a mess. I really liked him as a character and my heart went out to him.
Jasmine is the rule follower but when the future alpha catches her attention then all bets could be off. Or are they? Feelings for Blake, betrayed by her mate and best friend she doesn’t know what to do.
Luke loves his mate’s best friend and is being led around by his d*ck. The indecisive nitwit. I wanted to knock some sense into him.
Lucy is a selfish duplicitous b*atch! She knew what happens when you meet your mate, but she is a sh*tty person, stamps her foot like a two-year-old and has a temper tantrum. Then she does the unthinkable. I absolutely hated her.
I am surprised I didn’t break my tablet in frustration. I guess these intense feelings just go to show how well written Celia made them. The story is told through multiple POV which is my favourite way of storytelling and great because you get to know who the characters are.
The story flowed well until the ending where it felt a little rushed and abrupt in its ending. I will be reading the next because I have to know how it all turns out in the end.
Just because this is how I felt reading this book does not mean that everyone feels the same so give it a go and make your own decisions.

The Podcast ChroniclesThe Podcast Chronicles by Kathryn Dodson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed reading Kathryn’s Tequila Midnight and was excited to see what The Podcast Chronicles held. What I found was a great read.
This fast-paced women’s fiction story finds one woman who is determined to save her community from those who want to bring about unwanted change. The characters are well developed and fully realised making them easily relatable. You will like some and others not so much but either way they are well written.
Sue is at a stage in her life where she doesn’t have to focus on family. Feeling a bit adrift she pours her heart and soul into her beloved town to stop developers trying to rip it apart. She decides to take the bull by the horns and show others that she means business.
Kathryn has cleverly woven twisty threads together to give us a tale that I was so invested in and wanted to lend a helping hand to the MC. She has added elements that make it hard to put down with challenges, greed, drama, family and frustration just to name a few. Her writing skills kept the pages turning because I had to know what was going to happen next.
If you like a tale with a bit of humour, backbone, grit and determination then this is a book for you.
I must say I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and eagerly look forward to reading more from this author.

My Big Red Monster (Giants and Monsters)My Big Red Monster by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I lived with monsters under the bed when I was younger and would have loved a book like this to see things differently. Lois has taken and old tale and put her spin on it and it is one that little ones should read to put their minds at ease.
Lois Wickstrom has given her readers another unique story and the wonderful bright and colourful illustrations by Nicolas Milano bring it to life.
My Big Red Monster is aimed for children ages 4-8 and will delight in the story.
Brothers that scoff at the idea of a monster under the bed beware it may just be true.
A fun addition to Lois’s Giants and Monsters series.

Master SardiniaMaster Sardinia by Sylvia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Master Campania is the seventh explosive book in the EPIC Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia. It is an age-gap enemies to lovers’ trope. Hands down the dark and delicious Masters of the Consulate is one of my all-time favourite series. I was so excited to see another book out.
It’s easy to become immersed in Sylvia’s magical world of fated mates where old-world the alpha vampire mafia reside. I cannot get enough of these men in this dark paranormal romance tales. Make sure you read them all in order because there is so much that you will be missing out on.
I feel like I keep repeating myself in my reviews of this series but there are only so many ways you can keep saying just how amazing this series is.
I was once again instantly lost in the story. Lost to this harsh yet beautiful world. Sylvia’s characterisation is done very well, and world building is vividly imagined through her wonderful narrative.
The story is fast paced, intense, full of suspense and steaming hot.
Master Sardinia is dangerous; he is darkness, he is all power, he is pure arrogance and sizzling sex appeal, and he fights for what is his. What a man!

As always, I look forward to more from this bestselling author. You go girl.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The McIntire County Series is an amazing book series that continues from the first book to the fourth book, with each book building upon the characters who each have a new case to solve. I love a good suspenseful story, and this one did not disappoint me in any way at all. I loved that we finally read about the Sheriff, Shane Hamilton, and understand why he acts the way he does throughout this series. You get this feeling that something is weighing on his mind and body, but it never even hints at what could possibly be on his mind. I loved that Liza Bartholomew gets to rejoin the story line, not only as an FBI agent, but also as a love interest for Shane, who has kept his heart locked up ever since the horrible tragedy that struck his life many years prior. What an amazing read this was, it holds you captivated throughout the entire story, with never a dull moment. You see so many unexpected twists and turns and fear for the safety of your favorite characters. Winter Austin is one of my favorite authors for writing thrilling suspense series, I even got my teenage son hooked on her books. I cannot wait to see what else she has available to read, as well as looking forward to more books yet to come. You will not want to miss reading this hit book series.

What a fun and captivating romantic fantasy! I absolutely loved Cahki and found her spirit to be entrancing and motivational! Her quips and relationship with the prince was as enjoyable as it was frustrating ( in the best way) to see! It had me completely in my emotions! Ms. Reis’s world building was so clear and vivid it was so easy for me to picture every detail! I will definitely be looking for more books by this author in the future! Especially the prequel coming out for this book that I am so excited to get my hands on, House of Blood and Pirates!

He’s a hot, shirtless hockey player…and he’s my fake date for my ex-husband’s wedding. Talk about a hot flash to beat all hot flashes.

The wedding bells are ringing and my ex-husband is the groom! When my grown kids hook me up with a fake date to my ex-hubby’s tropical island nuptials, I expect sun, sand, and plenty of fruity cocktails—not steamy nights with a shirtless pro hockey player!

Roman might be all swagger on the ice, but this growly, egotistical male model of perfection has a soft side too. While I battle dresses made for twenty-somethings, awkward run-ins with my ex, and unwelcome hot flashes, Roman is there to distract me with flirty compliments, stay up late with me when I can’t sleep, and make me feel vibrant and ageless.

As good as it feels, none of this is real, and Roman is way out of my league. Who’s going to believe this gorgeous, famous, muscle-bound athlete would ever date a scatterbrained, hot-flashing, insomniac nerd with twenty stubborn extra pounds around the middle?

But as the big day approaches, we grow closer. Wedding activities lead to beach walks at sunset, and his oh-so-talented fingers twist my hormones up in a whole new way. Gazing into Roman’s eyes, I start to wonder if he could be my shot at a real happily ever after.

That’s the thing about vacations, though; at some point, you need to return to reality. 

Hot Flashes and Hockey Slashes is a single dad pro hockey romance with plenty of spice and a game-winning HEA. It’s the first book in the Hot Flash Hookups series, and can be read as a standalone.

Tropes:

      growly alpha hero 

      menopausal woman at her ex husband’s wedding

      slow burn 

    one bed

pro hockey

      forced proximity/fake wedding date

      single dad

I’m back where it all began—and I mean all.

Where my dad died.

Where my sister was murdered.

Where my life changed forever.

I’m at Thane University for a reason—to work my way through the memories I can barely grasp in my nightmares. Then he walks in and our souls collide when our eyes meet. He’s a part of this, but I can’t place him. I don’t even know his name, but I know he holds more power over me than he should.

I need to listen when I’m warned to stay away because he’s dangerous. But it doesn’t matter what anyone says—staying away isn’t an option.

Wicked Games is an enemies-to-lovers, new adult, bully romance with plenty of angst. This book contains mature content that some readers may find disturbing. It is not a standalone and does end in a cliffhanger that continues with a ton of heat and a HEA in Wicked Ends.

Saint Con by Seelie Kay – Review by Angela Hayes

Saint ConSaint Con by Seelie Kay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Saint Con by Seelie Kay is an engrossing mystery- a bit of a romantic suspense intermingled with tension, danger, chemistry, intrigue, angst, emotion, humour, banter, and dramatic developments.
It is a short story, which makes for a very quick and easy read. I’m not sure what I was really expecting from this, as Ms. Kay loves to mix things up and always manages to surprise me- in a good way. After the first couple of chapters I thought I was in for a bit of a romcom- but then things took an unexpected turn where Ms. Kay twisted things up a bit and added a mystery/suspense angle too. She turned what I thought would be a simple, albeit enjoyable romcom, into quite a clever, complex, multi-faceted storyline- packing a lot into a small package. In true Seelie Kay fashion, it is immersive and impactful!
I really enjoyed this clever suspense. But it was the characters who stole the show for me. I really loved the characters, I enjoyed their chemistry, personalities, funny banter, quips, and antics. It made them more realistic and quite endearing.
Well worth the read!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Seelie Kay!

My rating: <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5918529473″>4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
This book takes us on the case of a missing girl and trying to figure out who has been taken her. Jolie Murdoch is a new Deputy on the force who is trying to locate her. She stumbles upon the girls father, deceased, and already has a prime suspect. Xavier Hartmann, an ex Marine that got injured by an IED, is the local bartener and the prime suspect in question, but he doesn’t remember anything. Did he do it? While Jolie works the case the true culprit is out there trying to hinder the investigation and keep Xavier from being a free man. Will she be able to solve the case? I love how the author has brought us something new in each book. As always this can be read as a standalone, but why only read one book in the series? The characters also are wonderful as always and there is always such growth as the story progresses. It has been a great ride so far and now I’m on my way to digging into book number four.

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book #3) by Elsa Winckler – Review by Angela Hayes

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3)Merry Christmas, Montana by Elsa Winckler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Merry Christmas, Montana is the third (and final?) book in The Millers of Marietta series by Elsa Winckler. It is a Christmas romance with a small-town setting, emotion, family, chemistry, spice, a special Christmas wish, heartwarming/feelgood scenes, and finding love unexpectedly.
Even though this is the third book in the series, it can be read as a standalone if you want. Each instalment in the series focuses on one of the Miller siblings who have moved to small town Marietta for the new beginnings that offers. This time we get Mitch Millers story and get a front row seat to fate bringing him his perfect match in the form of single mother, Riley O’Sullivan- although, they might not realise that they are meant to be, at the time. This is another Miller-O’Sullivan match that has proven to be a winning recipe in the previous two books.
The characters are wonderful, fully developed individuals with their own unique personalities, quirks and flaws- but who are also quite endearing. The characters continue to develop and grow over the course of the story too, so who they ‘are’ at the beginning of the book evolves as the story unfolds. The story itself maybe a little on the cliché side- but one I was happy to let charm me with all the sweet, heartfelt, and romantic developments. Ms. Winckler kept things from getting too ‘cheesy’ by sprinkling in enough drama and emotion to keep things interesting. Add in a cute little boy with a special Christmas wish- and the story takes a charming, and endearing turn.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Elsa Winckler!

FBI agent Liza Bartholomew is back in Eider, Iowa after tracking a scam artist there. She has been tracking this man for years and may finally have him cornered. The town Sheriff, Shane Hamilton, is dealing with a couple homicides and a bunch of arsons. Although he at first stops Liza at every turn it soon gets discovered that their cases may be connected and forces them to work in close proximity. Will they be able to get along well enough to stop the perpetrator? The McIntire County Series has been fun to read. It was a a four book series, and this being book four it looks like the end of the line unfortunately. It is sad the series is over (for now) but I do hope there will be others. This book can be read as a standalone, however as some of the characters are recurring I do highly suggest reading this series from the beginning. I’m sure you will come to enjoy the series just as much as I did.

Tears Into Gold by Cori Cooper – Review by Lucy Machard

Tears into GoldTears into Gold by Cori Cooper
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story is definitely a conglomeration of multiple fairy tales, but they all have a way of tying together. It starts as a Rumplestilskin-esque story, following the tale of a servant who basically gets held hostage by the king. It has really good flow, and can be knocked out in an hour or two if you’re a faster reader.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The beginning does bring you into the story with a tale and there is always a moral to the story. The characters are wonderful and unique. I like how there are several fairy tales in one book. As you’re reading this novel, you will seem like you’re living in that time period.

Zibs for Sale (I am an Alien) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

Zibs for Sale: a retelling of Beauty and the Beast (I am an Alien)Zibs for Sale: a retelling of Beauty and the Beast by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Zibs for Sale is part of the I am an Alien series, but it can be read without reading them all. The story focuses on Shirl and her alien friend Eee-ahh. I read this with my 7 year old son, taking turns reading the pages. It is good for that age group. We did not really see it as a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, but looking back and trying to see it from that perspective, I guess I can see it. Eee-ahh tells Shirl how amazing Zibs are (they seem kind of like cupcakes) and they go to find them from the best bakery in the galaxy. Shirl takes one to taste, essentially stealing it, and then is put to work by the baker to repay her debt. Shirl tries to pay human money, but the baker doesn’t want it. He goes above and beyond with his tasks, but then the book has a surprise happy ending. Overall we enjoyed the book, and it was our favorite in the series. I love the creativity of the author and the colorful illustrations. Good for young elementary or preschool age kiddos.

Safe Harbor (Logan McKenna Series Book 5) by Valerie Davisson – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

SAFE HARBOR: Logan Book 5(The Logan McKenna Series)SAFE HARBOR: Logan Book 5 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Safe Harbor is Book 5 in the Logan McKenna series, but it can be enjoyed as a stand alone book. The characters overlap, and there are references to past events, but it isn’t lacking. The information is provided with enough detail that a reader would do just fine without having read those stories. I have read some of the series, but not all books and not even in order. Logan is always finding herself in the middle of suspenseful and dangerous situations. This book was one of my favorites I have read in the series, it is full of suspense and doesn’t all come together until the end. While we kind of know where the story is headed, there are still twists and turns along the way. Logan is on vacation with her family, and is soon a suspected murderer. It is all a lot of wrong place at the wrong time, all around, but it works. I recommend this to readers who enjoy suspense mysteries, without the spooky psychological thrill. I didn’t want to put the book down, but wasn’t terrified to finish either. The title was NOT what I expected Safe Harbor to be referring to, but again, it works.
