My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Critical Care is Book 6 in the Chase Care series….and I have to say this is my favorite book in the series so far. The intensity, edge of my seat feeling with drama, danger, action, romantic suspense..I really enjoyed this book very much. This story ran high on my emotions…and I am looking forward to what is in store by this author.

Tim Holland is part of the Chase Care team as facility director and also was in the Navy…Tim knows all about putting others first. When he meets Willow, who is a traveling nurse, there are definite sparks between them. When Chase Care suspects tampering with chemotherapy drugs, Tim and Willow will have to find out who is behind this and also with Willow’s past coming to be part of the fight to find out why this is happening….definitely makes for an interesting team. Will they be able to solve the mystery whom is behind this tampering…..when Tim is faced with a medical issue….will Willow be able to be there for him when he needs her the most…

Definitely read and find out…..this is a great book and I do not want to give away any spoilers :).

Nessie and the Celtic Maze (Nessie’s Grotto) by Lois Wickstrom and Jean Lorrah. These are the best kids books. I love everyone of them.

The kids do find a maze and get caught up in it trying to find their way from Canada to Scotland. Navigating this maze is all in hopes to save the Princess! Will they succeed? Read this cute kids book for ages 7-12. My 11 year old nephew loves these stories and we’ve read them all together. This story touches on being unafraid of the unknown and doing brave things. This book is the perfect addition to your families library and a teacher’s classroom!

This book is an exciting story to read, full of magic and great character chemistry. I loved the premise of the story and how creative and imaginative it is. The story was really easy to connect with and I found myself completely invested in what was going on.

This is the first book that I have read by this author and it definitely will not be the last. It was well written, engaging and a brilliant combination of fantasy and romance. I thoroughly enjoyed the booked from start to finish and cannot wait for more.

Outcast (Her Royal Harem: Ember Book 1)Outcast by Catherine Banks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I have read by Catherine Banks and it will not be the last. Catherine Banks has a very vivid imagination and this book has lots of interesting characters, themes, plots and twists and turns that makes you keep reading to figure out just what the heck is going on or will happen next.

Ember is a Mage – I kinda wish that Catherine had of written a glossary of terms as I still have no idea what a mage is but with the help of search engines I kinda figured it out in the context of the book.

This book contains magic, supernatural, curses, shifters, princes, and several handsome shifters whom vie to “mate” Ember.

It’s very hard to write a review without spoilers so you will just have to pick yourself up a copy, allocate a big chuck of me time and read for yourself.

Outcast (Her Royal Harem: Ember Book 1)Outcast by Catherine Banks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In Outcast, Catherine has created a diverse world of paranormal characters. It’s not an easy world to live in and prejudices only complicate it even more.
This reverse harem supernatural fantasy tale has bit of everything to keep the pages turning with action, danger, curses, conspiracies, bravery, romance and lots more.
It is well written, and the storyline is interesting with some wit and humour but there is also pain and suffering.
Ember finds it hard to believe the community could be so close minded and has to deal with aftermath of their rath for those who seek haven. Outcasts indeed in an unforgiving world full of darkness and hate.
There is drama, angst, passion, love, some steam and way much more in this tale.
It is full of fascinating characters and plenty of twists.
Get stuck in if you love paranormal stories.

Hello L.M. It’s always a pleasure as always.

If you love something more than a contemporary romance, something a lot risqué, something with forbidden desires, something where your fantasies might play out then L.M. is your go to person.
Enjoy!

Outcast (Her Royal Harem: Ember Book 1)Outcast by Catherine Banks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Her Royal Harem Series Ember. This is a wonderful story filled with magic, shifters, princes, danger, self discovery and a reverse harem.
It was really nice to read a different type of story. I personally love anything to do with mystical creatures. I have always been drawn to the protectiveness and strength of shifters and their fated mates and this has that plus so much more.
The authors imagination is amazing. The world creation and the character creation was outstanding. There was so many twists that I didn’t see coming which made the story thoroughly enjoyable.
Ember has got to be my favourite character of all time. She has had a tough start after being abandoned by her adoptive parents when they found out she had magic, so she lived alone in the woods healing sick animals and shifters. However something is happening as the amount of injured shifters seems to be increasing.
When a load of cursed animals show up that is when Prince Caleb arrives and Embers quiet lonely life takes a turn for the better.
She goes from being lonely to having 4 men wanting to date her and all happy to share. As well as this she has to overcome the confusion as she learns that she is more than she originally thought.
As well as this there is an organisation that is trying to rid the world of hybrid’s and the main people are Ember’s adoptive parents.
So much happens in this story that you need to read it to fully appreciate it. It is very fast paced and I loved every second of it. I can’t wait to read more

Another superb story from this series. Cray goes on an adventure that would be unknown to him if he had not befriended Hay. Leaving the beach he sets off for the woods. This one covers how one can be brave and asking for help as both animals need to learn to utilize that in here. There are great tips for building courage in the back of the book.

As always I want to mention the illustration in here. Between the wonderful story and the brilliant illustration this is a winner for kids and adults! I look forward to more adventures with Cray.

However, they still manage to get wrapped up in another Nessie adventure when her daughter needs their help navigating a dilapidated underwater maze. I love Wickstrom’s writing and the continuation of the storyline. I can’t wait to see where she’ll take us next!

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #5)Fearless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a brilliant finish to an absolutely fantastic series. I am sorry to see it end. I am so over the moon for Roy and CC. James did not deserve what Sam did at the restaurant. I was shocked!! I am going to miss this family like old friends.

James has been with Sam for a while and even though things have been strained lately, James is ready to take it to the next level. He plans a romantic dinner. Sam is late. It does not go the way James planned. When he leaves the restaurant, James goes home alone and Sam heads off to live her dream. James decides he is swearing off love for a while. And it works for about a minute until James is yelled at by a mystery woman that sets his heart aflutter.

Sara is a traveling nurse. She takes on a job for several months up to a year, and then she moves on to a different location, different job. This has been her life for the last 9 years. She feels it works for her but her son is getting older and has started hating moving. Sara has many reasons to keep moving. Now she has taken a job caring for Roy Bennett. This leads to her having an interesting path crossing with James.

James finds a way to keep Sara close. James moves Sara and Noah, her son, out to the farm to get them out of the hotel where they were staying. The Bennett family envelopes Sara and Noah into their clan. This move even gives Roy a chance at romance!

Throughout the story, we wrap up some questions about what is going on with all the rest of the Bennetts. I think there is more Bennett together time in this book than in all the others. I am here for it. They are a great family. I am sad to wrap up my time with them. It has been a great ride!!

Find time to put this series on your TBR if you haven’t already started it!!!!

A girl, stuck by Kelly Elizabeth Houston (Stephanie Tellas)

“A typically tough private investigator and criminology professor, Harry Smith distracts herself from heartbreak by diving headlong into her latest surveillance job. On a steamy New York City night, she sets out on foot, landing face to face with Trey Popov, a serious rising star in the Trubetzkoy crime family whose eyelashes just might be worth killing for. She escapes the verboten interaction but when the two meet again, Harry plunges undercover as a wholesome schoolteacher who turns Trey’s head despite his compulsion to climb the criminal ladder. Harry’s unconventional, scheme and forbidden attraction combust in a violent disaster. All she can do is work toward justice for her murdered police detective-dad. Along the way, she hopes to rescue the good, bad guy too far down the wrong road to be saved. For Harry, doing the right thing is also the hardest thing, but crossing some lines isn’t in your DNA when you bleed blue. Devastated by heartache, goaded by ambition, and blinded by attraction, Harry’s allegiances falter, and the differences between academic theory and real-life prove that no one makes it out unchanged. Hell, some don’t make it out at all. Trigger Warnings: explores law enforcement and mafia crime and all that comes with it, including brief violence ”
This is the 3rd in the series can be read as a stand alone, but I recommend reading the first 2 in the series first to get to know the characters. This was great story, the characters were quite entertaining , story was suspenseful with hint of comedy here and there. I give this book 4 stars.

I have read many of Lois Wickstrom’s picture books with my son. They have always been a hit with us. This is no different! This book was fun and witty. It kept my son’s attention (and mine as well). This book was a great adventure and flowed beautifully. Of course since it is a chapter book, it doesn’t have pictures. It’s all left up to your imagination. The job of an author is to weave details into the story so you feel like you are there with the characters. Lois did not disappoint!

Divinely Dramatic (Divine Vintage Series) by Sandra L. Young – Review by Lucinda Morton-Phillips

Divinely Dramatic (Divine Vintage Series, #2)Divinely Dramatic by Sandra L. Young
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Divinely Dramatic is the 2nd book in the Divine Vintage series by Sandra L. Young. The focus shifts to Marcy, the young assistant in Divine Vintage boutique who was a secondary character in the first book. This book can be read alone, but you will have a broader understanding of the skills displayed in this story if you have read the first book, Divine Vintage.
As well as working two jobs and looking after her infirm mother, Marcy agrees to help with the costumes of a period-era play in the local community theatre as a favour to her friend Justine.
Ever since she helped her friend (and boss) Tess solve a century-old supernatural murder mystery a couple of years ago, Marcy has been able to see auras although she is not always sure that she interprets them correctly.
Whilst sorting out the costumes for the play, she sees a pulsing white light which leads to her and Tess investigating a 50-year-old mysterious death of an actress who died on opening night in the very play they were now producing.
As well as everything else, the lead actress fails to arrive at rehearsals, leading to Marcy filling in, and then being offered the role by the attractive but grumpy director Mike, who only took on the directing job because he lost a bet with his mates. He is determined to have a successful show to show them up.
Life becomes complicated with the attraction between Marcy and Mike because Mike has a beautiful but difficult girlfriend, and Marcy starts dating her co-star.
Will Marcy be able to pull it all together to solve the mystery, put on a successful show, get her life together and get the man?!
I really enjoyed this book. It seemed to be more modern than the first book and had a faster pace. I love Marcy and her eclectic fashion sense and discovering that Mike was a kind and generous soul under the gruff exterior. It was lovely to touch on characters from the first book to see how their life has progressed, but Marcy was definitely the focus of this book, along with the vintage fashions.

Bailey and the CEO: A Corporate Love Story (A Better Man Book 1)Bailey and the CEO: A Corporate Love Story by Amy Q. Barker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

We follow the story of Bailey, a widow with teenage daughters, she’s also a VP who loves her work and Fox the single father of two teenage boys and the CEO of her company after an unexpected meeting. Neither one was looking for romance but after their first conversation they were both caught with an instant connection. They must navigate the challenges of balancing their work, families, and the consequences of their relationship. Amy Q. Barker takes us through that journey and draws you into the characters and their world. I could not put this book down. There were so many emotions, all the laughs, tears and everything in between.

Hay Goes Home (The Adventures of Cray)Hay Goes Home by G Pa Rhymes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Once again the artwork is fantastic, really eye catching 🥰 I do love the little adventure that Cray goes on lol and how he and Hay got to meet all those cool other animals. They not only became friends with them all but the other animals helped teach them a valuable lesson along the way. I also enjoyed the list the author included at the end . I will definitely be trying it out. I truly look forward to reading more stories by this author 🥰 if you haven’t read any books yet I 10/10 recommend 🥰

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, Book 5) by KG Fletcher – Review by Beverly Finnie

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #5)Fearless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There’s so many ways I could start this it took me a while to decide, so here it goes. I can’t believe the Bennett’s of Langston Falls Series is finished! 😕 It’s a series I enjoyed very much and someday plan to read the whole thing again. I’m still partial to the 2nd book being my favorite however Fearless Love is a very close runner up. James finally got his story, and it definitely didn’t start how I expected it to go. This book picks up right where book 4 ends.
Which to me I thought was like okay why, I thought he’s been in an established relationship since book 1 we just never got a back story. Unfortunately that’s not how this story goes.
Sam left James. Good riddance for leading him on. And it leaves James in a funk that’s not good to be in. Especially with his recovering father who is about to come home from the hospital. Of course if you read these books you know this is a tight knit family so it’s not just James, he just doesn’t want to bring them down. Adjusting to the new norm of an empty home and moving on, he never expected his dad’s care nurse and her son to come barreling into his life.
Sara and Noah are headed to a new home. Why because Sara has a new job to take care of Mr.Bennett. Unfortunately she has a disappointed son, who all he wanted for his 8th birthday was a party with friends. He didn’t understand why they couldn’t have waited a week to move. Sarah still promises him anyway that’s exactly what he’s going to have. When it ends up a bust, she’s disappointed and feels she failed her son. What she didn’t expect was James and the band of Bennett’s to swoop in and not only make his wish come true but make her feel welcome as well. Leading him to some brownie points with her. The way he is with her son is one of the things that draws her to him. But will it be enough?
Can he accept another man’s child, since they are a package deal?
This book plays out exactly like the books in this series. There’s the meet cute. They get to know you and drama. And the conclusion. It’s just the context of how the story is told and the conclusion of what will really happen that keeps the reader involved.
Across these books you grow to love this family. Despite everything they’ve been through. This book even has a little extra towards the end for their widower father as well. I’ll miss this place and these characters but like I said early on I’ll read it again. Put it away for a while and when I find it again be just as excited to jump back into book 1.
If you’ve read the 1st 4 books, gear up for a wonderful finale. If you haven’t, what are you waiting for?!? Go find yourself book 1 trust me when I say that’s the best place to start!

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Series Book #3) by Mavery Ellscott – Review by Angela Hayes

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Book 3)Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

Shadowed Deception is the third book in the Shadow Defense Security series by Mavery Ellscott. I have been really enjoying this series, so there was no question whether I would be reading this instalment or not. I dove in as soon as it hit my Kindle and lost myself in the story for a few hours.
I felt this book amped things up a bit, and for me, it deemed like it was a bit edgier with more darker tones than the previous two books had- which I loved. It is a thrilling romantic suspense with danger, dramatic developments, tension, chemistry, agendas, action, mystery, the shadowy underworld of human trafficking, emotion, adventure, twists, secrets, lies, deception, layers, interesting characters, a web of intrigue, and steam — which all added up to a very engrossing read….. and (the book/series) would translate well onto the screen as well, making for a great movie.
I can’t wait to see where we go from here!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Mavery Ellscott!

Adventurous Read! I just love this author and how she is able to draw you and keep you to the end. This story is more of a chapter book geared towards elementary age. Great introduction into chapter books. Recommended to all readers. Looking forward to the next great read.

The Reluctant Spy by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Julie Johnson

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

This was a fun read about a boy named Timothy who finds a rat under his bed. He’s afraid of his grandmother finding it and screaming so he’s doing everything he can to get it out of the house. Grandma already knows about the rat though and she’s telling Timothy how this is a special rat. Hildegard is going to take them on adventures and help solve a mystery plaguing the community.

This is a longer read by this author. An emerging chapter reader could easily follow along with this book. There are a few German words scattered throughout, which is a great way to garner interest in a new language. True to this author’s style, there are also STEM components in this story.

Overall, a great read that I recommend!
