My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Make Me Want To Love You is Book 2 in the Love In Emerald Creek series and after reading the first book I was eagerly awaiting on this story of Burke and Shayna. While this series could be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the series from the beginning to get to know the characters and be drawn in to Emerald Creek. I really enjoyed the first book but I loved this story….roller coaster of emotions, small town feel, friends to lovers, romance, drama and can I just say while Shayna is juggling being a single mom and trying to provide for her children, the empowerment she feels after leaving her abusive ex-husband and protecting her children at all costs….Bravo!

Living in Emerald Creek, small town living, Shayna and Burke are best friends. Burke would do anything for Shayna and her children, but develops feelings for Shayna…and ever so patient. Both Shayna and Burke guard their hearts for different reasons, but as they spend more time together, the more feelings develop. When trouble arises…meddling grandparents and secrets rear its ugly head…will Shayna and Burke be able to overcome their own insecurities…or will it tear them apart…

Definitely read and find out! This is a great story….well done!

The Strategist (WaterFyre Rising, #5)The Strategist by Nadia Han
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Everything and more. This is the first book I have read by the incredibly talented Nadia Han though I have several of her books on my tbr, this was the first and I was over the moon with it. Yes, this is book five in the WaterFyre Rising series, but each book can be read as a standalone. I wasn’t confused or lost on anything, and it was explained what the previous four couples did to warrant the Trogyn being after him and his friends. Dual perspective of Arrow Holt and Vivian Vo.
Arrow has many accomplishments and interests including wine and video games. The one thing he wants is her. Vivian Vo is an accomplished pediatric dentist and martial arts master. Her childhood led her to mastering self defense and teaching others. So much in her life could be different if she and her mother knew those skills back then. After uprooting her entire life and putting it on hold to move across the country to find a kidnapped nine-year-old girl the unexpected shows up along the way. Seeing Arrow makes her have a flutter and spark of something she long thought was lost, something she could never get back when the scars were burned into her body long ago. Arrow thought he could have anything and everything he wanted until he found someone that matched his scarred soul, that awakened a part of him he never knew was there and only there for her. Thanks to Kaylee, the thirteen-year-old girl that Vivian is the guardian of, things progress faster in some ways than they could have. Vivian is forced to feel and not judge with her eyes as she begins to fall for “Bullseye” Arrow, while also battling herself about their actual encounters. Arrow falls for “Tulip” Vivian quickly and goes the distance to prove he is all in. When her past comes knocking, she worries more about how Arrow and those around her than herself.
Will Arrow run when he sees her scars as others had? Can Vivian let her walls down and finally trust someone again? This world is outside, maybe not in my personal experience but with how the world is I feel at least one person has lived this life or is living it now. The characters burrow into your heart, you feel their pain and their fear, but the author also makes you feel their hope and love as they break down their walls. Knowing up front from the tropes on that they get there happily ever after builds suspense and fear on how they will reach it. I cannot wait to see whose story comes next in book six, The Protégé, October 29th, 2024. Now to go back and dive into the other four books and see how his friends found their happily ever after.

Loris Opens Up His Heart (Courage Tales Series) by Dagmara Sitek – Review by Micalah Weatherholtz

Loris Opens Up His HeartLoris Opens Up His Heart by Dagmara Sitek
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loris opens up his heart by Dagmara Sitek was a precious, meaningful, heartwarming, important children’s story. The story focuses on Loris, who is a foster child, who doesn’t want to open up to his new family because he doesn’t feel like he belongs even though they invite him to participate and include him in their fun. It’s not until his foster brother is having trouble finishing a race to raise money for a sick young girls treatment that he uncovers himself, opens up his heart, and finishes the race for everyone. This is definitely an emotional story and could also potentially be a triggering one, but it shows the importance of acceptance, forgiveness, and new beginnings. The illustrations throughout the book were wonderfully done as well. There were a few instances that the dialogue sounded disjointed as if maybe the authors first language was something other than English, but it wasn’t a big deal. Wonderful book.

The Ghostly Diva (Divine Vintage)The Ghostly Diva by Sandra L. Young
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Ghostly Diva is the 3rd and final book of the ‘Divine Vintage Series’ but can be read as a stand alone. I have read all three and in my opinion, this one is my favourite.

Justine is invited to the estate of the late Liza Maddox, a small town actress, by her son named Jackson. She specializes in vintage fashion and cannot turn down the opportunity to find some unique antiques. When a snow storm hits, blocking Justine from leaving the estate, she finds herself trapped with the rude Jackson Maddox. Justine tries her hardest not to think too much of this. She came here on business and can keep this overnight stay professional. Fate has a different plan.

After finding some letters Liza wrote hinting at Jackson’s parentage, he lets his walls down with the help of alcohol in front of Justine showing her a side of him no one else has seen. Things start to get heated between the duo but Justine shuts it down quickly.

Liza is making her appearance known to Justine. She wants her to help her son get closure so Justine makes it her personal mission to find out who Jackson’s father might be. She may just be a small town girl living in a lonely world (haha) but she wants to change that and herself for the better.

Meanwhile Jackson just wants to get the estate dealt with and move on but he has weird memories attached to the house and is having difficult processing. It doesn’t help that his mind keeps wandering to thoughts of Justine.

I really liked this book. Small town girl meets big city boy. Justine is shy and caring while Jackson is angsty and rude. You would think they would not be good for each other but I found myself rooting for them the whole time.

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Magic and Heartache series by E.L. Roux. I enjoyed this book. I liked the premise of the plot and I thought the characters were off to a good start; however, I felt that both the plot and the characters were a bit rushed. Granted the book was very short. I would really like to have gotten more back story for both of the main characters (the author does mention at the end that we will get that story later). I’m excited for the next installment in the series…I’m hoping it’s a little more substantial. In the first book, we have Jorden and Cane’s story and it’s really very sweet and heartfelt. This is a fantasy romance and is definitely 18+. The spicy scenes are *spicy* and very well executed. I just wish there was more world building because it really lends itself to that as well as more character development. But I’m excited to see what they come out with for the next installment.

Under the Bandage by Lois Wickstrom. This is my favorite children’s author and my 6 year old nephew loves when I buy these books and read them to him. This one is all about boo boos and when you have a son, grandson, nephew or brother we all know how boys always have boo boos. This book is about a young boy who scrapes his knee so he needs a bandage. The bandage has to stay on to keep all the bad bacteria out. This author has the magical ability to teach a science lesson in her stories without you even realizing it. They are magical. Teaching us each phase our body goes thru in healing is just wonderful for little minds. Do yourself a favor and pick up this great story for young kids today!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Ghostly Diva is the third book in the Divine Vintage series. Though part of a series, it can be enjoyed as a standalone story. Justine is concerned about budget cutbacks and whether her job is at risk. She works as the assistant museum director at a local museum. Justine gets drawn into looking at the vintage clothing of a recently deceased actress, but the task leads to more than she expected.
I enjoyed the story and how it drew me into the mystery. The characters were fun and interesting to learn more about. I had read another book in this series, but this was my favorite. I enjoyed learning more about Justine’s life, but I equally enjoyed the actress and her son. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Ghostly Diva (Divine Vintage)The Ghostly Diva by Sandra L. Young
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“The Ghostly Diva” by Sandra L. Young is the third book in the Divine Vintage series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but I encourage you to read the others in the series as they are also great! The story revolves around Justine Saunders, an assistant Museum Director in the small town of La Porte, Indiana. Justine loves her job but is concerned about the county pulling funding from the museum, leaving its future uncertain.

Jackson Maddox is a screenwriter from LA. His mother, actress Liza Maddox, a hometown girl made good, has recently passed away, leaving Jackson to come back to La Porte and deal with the estate that belonged to his grandmother and mother. When he calls the museum to see if they are interested in any of her clothes and personal effects, Justine jumps at the chance to curate a display for the museum about Liza.

A snowstorm causes them to be trapped in the old house overnight, much to the dismay of Justine, who finds Jackson to be rude and dismissive of her and her hometown, even if he is very attractive. The appearance of Liza as a ghost is just the icing on the cake of a long and wearying day!

Justine gets caught up in the family secrets and does her best to help Liza and Jackson find closure and move on, all the while fighting the attraction she feels for Jackson as she knows he will be gone soon.

I think this is the best book of the trilogy. It is well-written, with great characters and development. I liked that the characters from the first books make an appearance too.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A gripping Italian murder mystery which kept me hooked throughout. Having read and enjoyed previous books in this series I was looking forward to being back with the stubborn detective, and I was not disappointed. This time State Police Maurizio Scala has an unexpected investigation when the bodies of two cousins, known to be involved in marijuana dealings are found. Scala soon discovers that there is a power struggle happening in the criminal underworld which the cousins murder could be linked to. However, the detectives dedication effects his personal life as he tries to balance his family responsibilities and the demands of his job. Scala’s investigative skills are put to the test when the Centocelle community becomes unsettled following another tragedy. This was a real page turner and the suspense built chapter by chapter making it hard to put the book down. Scala is a great main character who is brought to life alongside the setting through the descriptive narrative. I look forward to being back with the detective soon!

It offers the perfect insight into two best friends navigating their way through life and how they find the strength to face everything. This book resonated with me on a level I did not expect. It felt so relatable to my own life and the things that I might have to face moving forwards.
The author has created a story that is appealing and so easy to connect with. It was a well written story that explored the lives of two women and made me feel hope about what the future could hold in the second part of my own life. This is a great story and I really enjoyed this so much more than I expected.

This is a fantastic addition to this series and great prequel. The author’s beautiful writing shines while the story tells us about Troy, a strong minded magically gifted man who has been enslaved by the kind since he was young. His life is difficult but different than others like him, as the Queen has her helping with her dealings but limits, if not dampers Troy’s need to cast his magic which if left undone could lead to disaster.

This adventure shows the many layers to each of these characters as they deal with life as it has been dealt to them and the many obstacles that come their way.

I was immediately struck by the impressive contrast of characters and the amount of detail provided along the way. I think new readers of this series will enjoy this, as would those who have read the other books. There’s plenty of fantasy, mystery and magic to tickle your fancy.

It’s a really cute paranormal YA. I enjoyed it. I would recommend this for teens and preteen readers as a nice sized chapter book that doesn’t have inappropriate situations. There are situations that are relatable such as bullying for being different.

Having lost my mother to suicide this one hit close to home ….,

So Kate was married and her husband left her , got remarried and his now wife is pregnant 🙈to add insult to injury the shareholders of company she started decided to vote her out and she just feels life has no meaning , she’s given up and decided to end it but fortunately for she gets to the hospital on time …….

Kate and Lydia have been friends since childhood and she heads to the hospital to encourage he friend and is met with sone resistance from Kate and my heart goes out to her as she’s just lost her husband and I’ll be honest he was a bit of a deadbeat but still her husband nonetheless and her daughter just wants to escape her ( I thinks she’s being a little bratty )

Lydia has always been frugal so when she convinces Kate to revisit all the countries they travelled as youngsters Kate insists on going big and No expense is to be spared….

This was their second chance and there were times where I had no hope for Kate and her mindset but there’s always little rays of hope shining through the darkness and Lydia just wants someone to love . She has a few tough decisions to make along the way and again I can feel her mixed emotions 😉

I wasn’t all doom and gloom there were times I laughed out loud with them , I made memories with them and I relieved old memories with them , it was a privilege to part of their journey both present and past 🤗

These woman are so relatable and I could identify with both for different reasons and their travels were rich and informative 🥰this is one if those reads I just want all my girlfriends to read and one I will be rereading again ❣️📚

I am really enjoying the stories with Wynnie, her brother Lem and the King. There are always great lessons to learn with Wynnie. Because of this book, I now want a baby dragon. I like that Wynnie showcases that all animals start off unknowing as babies, and that with training, love and support they can learn to live along side of their humans without causing harm. The Wise Old Woman also realizes she was too hasty in her thoughts of the dragon Mera in the beginning as well as the King. Wynnie is a wonderful advisor for the throne.
