My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nessie and the Celtic Maze is the third book in Nessie’s Grotto series by Lois Wickstrom.
The covers have drawn me in each time I see these books.
Princess Sheona is in trouble and Craig and Linda must find their way from Canada to Loch Ness Ireland to help her.
In the third volume of the popular Nessie’s Grotto series, the children must penetrate a Celtic maze in order to rescue the lovely Princess Sheona.
Nessie and the Viking Gold is the delightful second magical book in the Nessie’s Grotto series. Sara Silvestris Strand once again brings the story to life with her colourful illustrations in this wonderful children’s book.
The story is aimed at children aged between 7 -12 years old and is 108 pages. Lois’s narrative makes this a fun tale that would be enjoyed by children of any age.
Join Craig and Linda on another fantastical adventure involving Nessie’s Grotto there is magic and a little bit of suspense.
Kids will love this adventure.

What a heart-warming true story. Her cat, Muffin, goes missing and she turns to God and prayer. The pictures are beautifully illustrated. I do not feel there is a restriction on age appropriateness, as God’s workings do not have one. This is a great teaching that God is always there when you need him. a wonderful story.

Vacation Flirtation...or More? (Winter Getaway Romance Book 1)Vacation Flirtation…or More? by Stacey Komosinski
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Vacation Flirtation is the first installment in the Winter Getaway Romance series and can be read as a standalone. This is Giuliana and Landon’s meet-cute, whirlwind of a romance story and it is fantastic, funny, and flirty. I really enjoyed Komosinski’s writing style along with her plot development and her character development. Her characters have depth to them and are very relatable. I also really enjoyed the sub-plot of Giuliana and Morgan’s friendship (which is the whole reason Giuliana is in Turks and Caicos in the first place) and how it has matured over the years like they have. This is the definition of a slow burn but the spice is still nicely done and sprinkled throughout the book. I loved the witty banter between everyone and the emotional depth later on in the book. I’m really looking forward to reading more of the series and the author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really quite enjoyed this book. I felt it was well written and the characters were well developed. It is not a standard novel that I would pick up, but I am glad I did. The only part I did not enjoy was the descriptions of all of the main characters past lives. I was overwhelmed and confused with all of that information and I feel that it did not add much to the story.

Overall, I would recommend this book to those who enjoy philosophical mysteries. It is not a long book and the storyline moves quickly. Definitely a fascinating, self reflective read.

The Scottish Play by Phoebe Alexander (Stephanie Tellas)

/0 Comments/in /by

“Molly doesn’t date men.
Lachlan doesn’t date period.
So can they stick to the script?
Molly Rose’s final grad school project is to stage the play she wrote. How on earth did her girlfriend find the absolute perfect cast for the kilt-wearing Scotsman role? Well, he looks the part, but he knows nothing about acting. It hasn’t escaped anyone’s notice that Lachlan Adair is ruggedly handsome. Molly’s polycule insists she keep an open mind, but she hasn’t dated a man since a series of disastrous attempts in high school, and she certainly doesn’t intend to start now. Lachlan doesn’t know how he got roped into helping out with this MFA student’s thesis project, but she’s so curvy and cute. And she seems to like his accent. Apparently she has a girlfriend and lives in a house full of other freaky folks. No big deal. When the play is over, their fling will be too. Right?” Do they fall in love? Will have to read the book to find out.
Great funny characters, bit of spice with suspense and comedy. I suggest readers 18+ and older. Lots of spice. The book was entertaining, gripping, and a quick read. I give this book 4 stars.

The Rise of House Valdis (House Valdis #1)The Rise of House Valdis by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having read and enjoyed the prequel to this series and been introduced to Xenobia I was looking forward to reading this novel, and I was not disappointed. This was a real page turner with an original and intriguing storyline and great characters all of whom are a bit quirky. Xenobia arrived on Earth seven years ago and was given a new start with only her best friend Maggie knowing who she really is. However, when Maggie is beaten Xen reacts and her split-second decision leads to her true nature being exposed. Xen must choose whether to keep her secrets or decide that her chosen family is worth exposing her secrets for. I liked the multiple POV’s as it meant I felt engaged with all the main characters. I also liked how the story includes LGBTQ relationship dynamics. Whilst the setting is brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative making me feel fully immersed in the story. Can’t wait for book two!

Perfect Office PactPerfect Office Pact by Maria Jane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable contemporary romance with an enemy to lovers and an office romance theme. Declan Jordan is Mira Vasquez’s boss but having crossed a massive line Mira could end his career. However, Mira uses the situation to her advantage and agrees not to say anything to the board if he helps further her career. Soon Declan wants to get to know Mira on a more personal level, but to do so means breaking their pact. He would have to take a chance that Mira won’t want to end his career once she knows him better. I liked having the dual POV as it meant I felt more engaged with both main characters. The chemistry between Mira and Declan came across in the narrative and I liked how their relationship developed throughout the story. A sweet romance with plenty of humour, emotions and a bit of drama all of which kept me happily turning the pages.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This one is was rough for me. Mostly because I did not care for the actions of both characters throughout most of the book. She is very combative and he seems restrictive and obviously has some sort of issue. Just their interaction through a large portion of the book was off putting. Him secretly wanting her and she is basically clueless for years. Too many breakdowns and tantrums for the story. There is very little romance and when they do she always has her foot half way out the door. Arg! I really felt for Declan numerous times. Just with his attitude and struggles he has to go through daily but he offers hope because never seems to give up trying.

Overall this is just an okay story for me. I think I wanted more pleasant interaction as time went on between them and it just doesn’t really happen.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is a really quick read and it had me sunk into it from the beginning. I would say that this author seems to actually really love hockey or did an amazing job with their research. I actually really loved that it wasn’t just about the romance and the pull and tug between battling feelings for one another, it actually had hockey it in. That said the romance in this book is great. Yes, I did roll my eyes a bunch during this book because of the constant, “I want him/her, I don’t want to want him/her.” You get so invested into this book because you want them to work and get over their things to be together because you can see how good they are together. It’s like everyone in the room can feel their tension when they are together and are just rooting for them. I could not put this book down, even as frustrated I got with it. That just means it is a really well written if I am so emotionally involved in what is happening. If you like hockey or love a sports romance, this book won’t disappoint.

This is a second chance at love contemporary romance with a dark element to it. I found myself engaged with the characters right from the start and the storyline kept me hooked. Harper and Gabriel were teenage sweethearts until tragedy parted them. When they meet again as adults Gabriel is still angry and hurt by Harpers actions. However, Harper has secrets, which explain why she did what she did thinking that by letting him go she could set him free. When they find that they are both in danger they can’t deny that all their old feelings are still there along with their connection. This was an emotional rollercoaster of a read and I found it to be a real page turner.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book in this series. I did not read the first one and I had no problem following along. I love that each book it seems is completely able to be read as a stand alone. The way the author writes about the setting, which is the 1920’s, you feel like you are there. It is amazing, you are really able to tell the research that was put into this book to make sure that the author was able to get every minuet detail correct. What really made me want to read the book is the Capone aspect of it. The leading male character is one of his men and the leading female is a dancer. I love me a good mafia aspect of a book. However, I felt that having the book written from the “kept woman” accept is something that I haven’t gotten to experience. It really made me sit there and think about what it would have been like int he 20’s. I highly enjoyed this book and the budding romance between the main characters. I will definitely be going to read the rest of the books in this series. It is really hard to say how amazing this book is without giving anything away. Just know that this is a super quick read and was a page turning experience from beginning to end.

It’s an entertaining story that brought us joy to read. It will be a neat addition to our family library.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first book by this author, and I am so glad I took a chance. Such a super cute, super fun, super sexy story and a great start for this series. Halfway through the story I knew there was more sunshine and rainbows than darkness and angst. However, there seemed to be an underlying current that something bad was going to happen. Was Giuliana going to ruin the chance or was Landon really a jerk in a gentleman’s clothing? Maybe I just read too many dark and stormy romances and I was projecting my fears onto these fun characters. I mean, vacations are supposed to be great right? And a vacation with your best friend in Turks & Caicos even better. Add in a little flirtation with a sexy man and now we have perfection. This story was a fun read and looks to be the start of something really good.

What a wonderful story to introduce our little ones to the blessings of knowing The Lord. The story shares a true story of Muffin, and how he was lost. You see Muffin slipped out the door on a cold day. The family searched for weeks and could not find Muffin. This story is a miracle indeed. The author explained her journey in words the children could understand. The story is easy to follow and the pictures are eye-catching. Best part of this story is the prayer as well as the scriptures to refer to. This story is a must read and own on your childrens book shelves.

This is my 1st time reading this author. I’m not usually a fan of sports themed books, but I gave this one a chance and I’m glad I did. I didn’t realize it was the 3rd book in the series, but it worked as a stand alone, so that was helpful. But I do feel like if you read them all you’d get more backstory on characters that made an appearance in this book. Colby and Gabby have chemistry, there’s no doubt about that. But he’s noncommittal and she’s not falling for his bluster again, not after the last time. When fate throws them together for the sake of their friends, they have to get along. If you love a good lovers to enemies to lovers again (sorta) story… This would be an amazing read for you. Also if you love a good spicy sports romance, with a HEA, this would be a good story for you. As I feel like probably the whole series would be. I can’t wait to read the other books in this series, now.

The Reluctant SpyThe Reluctant Spy by Lois June Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

The Reluctant Spy by Lois Wickstrom is a fun little children’s chapter book. It’s a little different from most of her other works as it doesn’t contain any illustrations, and yet again, the story is original and imaginative. It is also a much longer story than her picture books, so it’s great for reading a chapter or two at bedtime. This is an intriguing fantasy with a spy adventure element, mystery, action, suspense, a mad scientist, a little danger, a sprinkle of drama, imagination, friendship, loyalty, values, family, investigation, and a little danger.
Timmy finds himself on the adventure of a lifetime when he discovers a ‘special’ rat named Hildegarde at his grandmother’s house, then finds himself in the middle of a spy mission to uncover a mad scientist…What happens makes for a fun read.
Happy Reading…

Well kinda I did want to know but I made myself stop it was so hard because the author had me sooo enthralled that I was on the edge of my sit the WHOLE time omg! It took all my willpower not to skip😭. I love that it was told from different POVs, letting you know what’s going on in their mine. Giving this was the fifth book of the Philly Heat Series. Whoops.

Deceptively Yours is the first book in the Titans of Chicago Series and is a Dark Contemporary Romance with a bit of suspense added in. There are some parts that may be a trigger for some but I promise it’ll be worth pushing through them. I’m not only a huge fan of this author but her Titans of Manhattan wass amazing and I couldn’t wait to dive into this one. I devoured this book in one afternoon because I simply couldn’t put it down I had to know what was going to happen next. Harper and Gabriel have grown up together and have been in love with each other sense a young age. These two are inseparable until tragedy strikes and she’s forced away. Over the years they have both been through things some terrible and some not. Can these two get a second chance at love? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next.

When Ashton’s new boss turns out to be her best friend’s brother, the sparks sizzle from the get-go. However, as strong as Ashton is in her day-to-day job, there is a side of her that she is ready to explore further, and that begins with an application to join Shattered Embrace. Zach is impressed with Ashton’s work as a consultant with his company. He is surprised, and intrigues, when an application for his BDSM club comes across his desk from said consultant. He thought he was stepping away from club life…but he may be just what this submissive needs.

This was a great story that introduced some aspects of the BDSM culture without being shocking for those who may not know what to expect. Both Ashton and Zach have a chemistry that sizzles…and it was entertaining to read how he helped Ashton find the side of herself that needed to explore. They worked well together in the boardroom and in the bedroom. The secondary characters were also quite enjoyable and I’m hoping they will get books of their own as the series continues.
