My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The thrills are even better in this second book in the Killer Series, by Allan Evans. I thought that Killer Blondes was good, but this really excelled even beyond the great read the first book was. Not only is our Detective Cade Dawkins back but he’s got far more to handle on his plate than ever before. He successfully defeated the Blonde Killer in the first book in this series, and now he’s got to take on a group of serial killers who have all started working together online. They share ideas, tips, and even information as well as challenge each other, what a scary group to have to take on for our hero detective. Turns out two of these serial killers have decided to meet up and work together, giving Detective Dawkins, a lot more to manage in his city than he’d ever bargained for. Will he be able to take on this intimidating challenge or will the group be able to win their challenge and defeat the detective that was able to stop the Blonde Killer in their tracks? This is another amazing read by Allan Evans, you do not want to pass up this excellent book series, especially if you love reading psychological thrillers!

Killer BlondeKiller Blonde by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Allan Evans’ book Killer Blonde was a great psychological thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat, scared to see what would happen next as a killer is on the prowl for blondes. The characters were perfectly developed, with no detail too small to be left out. It was as if I was right there watching the dead bodies as they were found by the investigators. This book had so many unexpected twists and turns, the killer was ingenious in the fact that they knew exactly what they were doing every step of the way, always two steps ahead of the detectives. I am a huge fan of psychological thriller novels, the chase of trying to find the killer before anyone else can be killed makes the story keep you reading right up to the very last page. I couldn’t put this book down; I was so scared that the detective would not be able to solve the murders before they got targeted themselves! If you love a good mystery thriller you will want to add this book to your next to read list.

Hope

 

Adam Emerson was meant for me, but unfortunately, his heart belonged to someone else.

At a pivotal point in my life, I decided to end my relationship to make room for something new. My change of heart couldn’t have come at a better time.

My future began the moment I met Adam. Our first encounter showed his kindness. He swept in on a wish and was whisked away just as fast. During our second encounter, I got a glimpse of his anger. But the third revealed all of him—a man who loves fiercely, even in the midst of grief.

Adam

While dealing with a heartbreaking loss, I visited a local cafe for a reprieve. I didn’t expect to run into Hope again or to intervene when some guy approached her. The timing couldn’t have been worse for my interference, but she looked like she needed a reprieve too. After spending minutes with her, I wanted days, and the days turned into weeks. Hope showered my grief with kindness and doused my anger with love. When I wanted to lose control, she wouldn’t let me. She gave me space but kept me close. But there was more to her than I realized.

When a shocking discovery is revealed, I’m left wondering if our connection is strong enough to sustain us. Or is it the very thing that will tear us apart?

**

Almost and Forever is a beautiful, heartwarming story of loss, love, and forgiveness!

**This book contains adult content and the loss of a loved one. It is not suitable for all readers.**

House of Blood and WhispersHouse of Blood and Whispers by Natalina Reis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

House of Blood and Whispers by Natalina Reis is an epic and immersive romantic fantasy that really showcases the authors masterful worldbuilding and storytelling talents. I know that I can always count on Ms. Reis to deliver an engrossing and enjoyable read, and this book was all that and then some. It turned out to be one of my all-time favourites of her works, so far- and that’s saying something because Ms. Reis has some truly fantastic books to her name.
Apart from the incredible world-building and superb characters, there is so much more happening in the story, from action, adventure, danger, drama, romance, politics, corruption, agendas, intrigue, secrets, lies, emotion, and high stakes. The book also comes with a map that really helped to bring everything to life and helped me visualise the world so much better.
As always, Ms. Reis writes beautifully, and her talent is very apparent throughout the book. This is pretty captivating reading. The premise is not only intriguing, but it has also been executed beautifully. The author did a great job of infusing quite a lot of emotion, tension, and romance into her story that had me avidly reading the whole way through.
The inclusion of the glossary of the translations for some of the words used in the story, also helped and added another dimension to my reading experience.
I can’t wait to get my hands on ‘House of Blood and Pirates’ the prequel to this book- which is set to be coming soon. Colour me excited!!!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Natalina Reis!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was definitely a well thought out book. Just like any first book, there’s a lot of world building it in and background to get the feel for the lore behind the series. It was detailed perfectly, well paced, and honestly very very creative. Definitely an original work of fantasy that isn’t generic fae, vampires, etc. the characters were well thought out and given a lot of depth. I did think it was a very slow start though, and for me it didn’t pick up until the last 15% of the book. But I did like it, and if you like pirates and magic, give it a shot!

House of Blood and WhispersHouse of Blood and Whispers by Natalina Reis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cahki is a girl not to be messed with!! Emporer Min is after her for his harem and along the way to his palace, Cahki is abducted. How odd that she’s abducted by the Emporer’s son! Prince Sung-jin captures her in order to save her from his disgusting father.

When it seems the only “safe” option for saving herself is to marry the Prince, Cahki learns that they will have a very special marriage ceremony. They travel over a few days to the correct place, the deed is done, yet Cahki and Prince Sung-jin are better enemies than a married couple.

Will they ever fall in love or will they always have a strained relationship? Will the Prince be able to overturn his father and run the country the way he sees best?

This was an enjoyable book. I did appreciate the warning in the front of the book about things that may trigger a reader. There were several moments where I found myself laughing out loud while reading this. Cahki is a force to be reckoned with and her quips are unexpected at times. There were times I wanted to smack her or the Prince. The story was well-written and enjoyable!

Killer SmileKiller Smile by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A wonderful psychological thriller. There’s been a bounty set and that bounty is to bring Cade Dawkins to his knees. Who set the bounty? A site on the dark web in response to him taking down one of their own. Killer Smile follows Cade as he tries to bring down multiple serial killers who had their feathers ruffled when he killed one of their own. They are out to prove that he got lucky. That they(the serial killers) are smarter than him and they can prove it.
Discovered by two professors at the university they stumbled upon a call to show Cade Dawkins who really has the power. Asking various members to go to Minnesota to show him, he’s not that good. He’s not a hero.
Cade initially dismisses the warning till the first body surfaces. Now at the governor’s request he has been tasked to lead a task force to bring said killer down. What they didn’t expect was another body with a different signature, pointing to more than one killer to deal with.
The author wrote a book that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Turning the page and wanting more! So many questions and so many answers the biggest ones being:
How many women have to die?
How many killers are there?
Will Cade and his task force bring these killers and their site down, or will it be his downfall?
This book jumps around to various character point of views. Which is interesting and sometimes disturbing(depending on which killer it is), however it works wonderfully.
I, for one, have always been sucked into books like this. Typically profilers are the main characters in those. It’s nice to see a different angle taken on which direction the law enforcement is coming from. Give it a fresh take.
So what are you waiting for?!?

House of Blood and Whispers by Natalina Reis is a fantasy tale. I always jump to grab Natalina’s new book when I see it is out as her stories are refreshing and unique. Natalina has a way of telling a story that brings her narrative to life.
The non-stop action and enough twists and turns to will keep you glued to the pages and invested in the outcome. There is lots of emotional turmoil in this story yet there is also beauty.
The storyline is intriguing and kept you on your toes as we journey along with their trials and tribulations of escaping a tyrannical ruler and freeing not only themselves but it’s people as well.
I loved the main characters and how even in the midst of the cruelty of the world as they know it, they were able to adapt and find happiness.
Cahki was brought to a world where a despicable Emperor resides and expects to be obeyed but he made a mistake when he captured her. She will not go down without a fight. She has hope that freedom will be won.
House of Blood and Whispers is a twisty romantic fantasy where violence and viciousness are commonplace, a place where their survival is at stake and danger is around every corner. A world that is controlled with an iron fist, cruelty, arrogance and lies, now becomes one of a fight for their survival.
I am interested to see what Natalina gives us next.

Cahki is a strong woman raised by adoptive parents in a small community in the northern part of the kingdom, an area well known for fair beauties; something the emperor is well known to have a taste for in his concubines.

Unfortunately the Emperors men come to the North and Kidnap Cahki and start a journey back to the Emperor, but these men had no idea who they just kidnapped.

Cahki is strong, and isn’t going to go down without a fight. She finds herself in a new port after having escaped her captors only to be captured and put in a different cage…. but who is her savior? None other than the Son of the Emperor, but he has a plan to free her, but wants help saving their kingdom from his father and its going to require she marry him. Cahki is no ones property and assures herself this is just a temporary situation to get her freedom…but can something else bloom in both of their icy frozen hearts while they race to save a Kingdom from a war that will mean so much death and destruction. A must read to find out!

Wild Lavender (Heart & Hand, #1)Wild Lavender by Nicole E. Kelleher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

From the beginning of Wild Lavender, I was kept on my toes, wondering what was going to happen next. The prologue had me hooked and only got better from there. Wild Lavender has a little bit of everything. First, it’s more of a period piece, set around Medieval times, so the views on marriage and loyalty are a little different. Second, the sadistic, cruel actions of Anna’s husband Roger might elicit a trigger warning. However, I think this part is necessary in the storyline to show the hardships and misery Anna endures and overcomes. The book also has danger, adventure, romance, politic, and a bit of the mystical. The characters are realistic, flawed, believable, and loveable (even those we love to hate). Overall, Nicole E. Kelleher’s world building is top notch, from her vivid physical descriptions of the kingdom to the often heartbreaking accounts of the characters’ thoughts and feelings. I can’t wait to read the next book in the Heart and Hand Series!

Amanda and Brian have chemistry that can be felt coming off of the pages…if they would just give into it. Brian has secrets that have him living each day as though it could be the last. That includes saying no to relationships and sticking to one night stands. That all changes as soon as Amanda walks into the room. However, when he finds out that she is his best friend’s little sister, he realizes that she is off limits. But, how long can these two remain friends when there are sparks when they are near each other? And…will they be able to give it a chance before it’s too late?

This book grabbed my attention from the get-go. I love a best friend’s sibling forbidden romance…but this was so much more. It is funny and witty, sexy and full of chemistry, while also being heartbreaking and frustrating. There are few books that I can say made me cry while I was reading it…and this was one of them. The author brought these characters to life and I was feeling emotions right along with them. This is a great story that I enjoyed reading!

Fast forward some years and the story begins…Ross and Hadley meet again under bad circumstances and feelings are shared. Lives have grown while they were apart. There is a touch of kink play in the book but not the 50 shades kind.

It was a good story with a good plot. I enjoyed it. I was intrigued by the mention of his boss’ story so I might go back and read that one.

This is the second book in the Empire at Twilight series by N.L. Holmes. This book is a historical fiction novel set in the 14th century B.C. N.L. Holmes does a fantastic job of giving detailed descriptions of the setting and time period that it is not hard to imagine as you are reading. This book tells about refugees from a Mesopotamian land. This is a nation that was wiped you by the Assirians. These people are musicians. This is a fantastic story about a nation of people that I had no idea about prior to reading this. This is an absolutely fascinating culture and I definitely want to learn more now. I definitely recommend reading this story!

This is the third book in the Empire at Twilight Series. Of the books in this series thus far, this is by far and away my favorite. This is a historical crime story which is filled with drama and twists and turns that keeps the plot moving at a lightning pace. This book features the same amount of detail that I have come to know and love from N.L. Holmes and I love how it is applied to this mystery. There are so many historical details that definitely made it even more fun to read than a traditional mystery / crime story. This story is set in the Bronze Age in a Syrian kingdom. Prior to reading this story, I did not know much about Ugarit – but N.L. Holmes gives enough information and detail that it is easy to understand and learn as you are reading. I definitely recommend this story as well as the rest of the series! You will not be disappointed!

Holmes is fantastic at developing her characters as well as describing the setting, which takes place in ancient times. The descriptions are so vivid that it is easy to close your eyes and imagine yourself sitting right there. This book features the culture of the Hittite Empire which is in current Turkey. This story follows a chariot driver who has to find the balance between family and the empire. This story does a fantastic job showing how complex things were back then and how it was empire over everything else. This book is definitely a fantastic read and I recommend it for the fantastic story line and the historical details.

Daring Ceri
By: Morgana Bevan

Morgana Bevan has become one of my favorite authors. I was definitely excited when I saw this new release. This definitely was worth my excitement. This is a fantastic enemies to lovers story. Ceri and Alex were lovers once and apparently got married in Fiji. However, Ceri definitely doesn’t remember marrying Alex and this is getting in the way of her planned marriage. Alex isn’t willing to sign the paperwork though, until she is positive she doesn’t want to be with him anymore. Ceri and Alex have amazing development as characters. It was interesting to see how they each grew and developed, which was very similar to how I would imagine they would evolve in the real world. I definitely enjoyed watching them grow in their relationship and understanding of one another. I definitely recommend reading this! Its fantastic with an excellent plot and character development.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was obsessed with this book from the blurb alone and this only intensified when reading.
The plot was brilliant and the way it was written, I have no words. I was drawn in immediately and the wonderful way the author narrated this, created a brilliant atmosphere and I could not put this down.
I loved the way Cahki and Sung-jin created an uneasy alliance and learnt to work together, the journey as they found their footing felt believable and realistic. While I enjoyed both characters immensely, Cahki stood out to me. She’s fierce. A strong and fearless character willing to do what’s needed for those she loves. I love a character with good development, so I enjoyed seeing other sides to her as the story progressed, she’s not just a warrior quick to resort to violence, there’s more depth there and I loved it.
I was rooting for the pair almost immediately, not only romantically but also in achieving their goals and this had me on the edge of my seat on multiple occasions, hoping for their success.
This is the first book I’ve read from this author, but it certainly won’t be the last, if their other books are even remotely as enjoyable as this one, I’ve found my next fixation!
