I don’t really know how to feel about Matthew, I get why he is so upset and I get why he feels so betrayed, because he was but, Julia wasn’t acting as herself, she was under the thumb of Valentino. Sometimes healing and accepting take time, but I feel like he isn’t even trying to understand Julia’s situation. I also don’t know why I am standing behind Julia so hard, I guess I just feel like she is treated differently and looked at differently. While out trying to heal his mind and heart from the loss of Christ, the betrayal from Julia and leaving his ka-tet, Matthew seems to have inserted himself into the role of a human with the Medici family. With them he forms friendships and bonds, it seems at times he wouldn’t have any problems being without his ka-tet permanently, but he struggles, with the loss of his power and the relationships he had with Samual, Mary Anne and Jeffrey. I am really hoping he can come to terms with his loss, deal with the turmoil he is feeling with his lost power and the betrayal and be able to connect and live with his ka-tet again. I know it will take time but I hope he can rekindle somewhat of a friendship with Julia, and I really want to see Valentine taken down.

I’ve read many of the author’s books before, and thoroughly enjoyed the mix of historical detail and adventure. This book is no different, and I must say that I liked that this novel got a bit close to home for the main character Nerefet. The plot is, as usual, full of twists and turns that kept me hooked. I love everything this author writes and recommend you read all the books in the series.
5 Stars Master Bistrita (Masters of the Consulate Book 11) by Sylvia Black
Master Bistrita is the eleventh book in the Masters of the Consulate Series and is a Paranormal story that will have you turning the pages till the end. The twists and turns will have will have you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what was going to happen next I think this one may be by my favorite yet. I highly recommend reading the previous books if you haven’t already started them they are just as good as this one. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

“ He cleared his throat and squirmed, not meeting my gaze in the reflection of the mirror. “I moved your, uh… bra… so I wouldn’t get it wet.” Blinking, my mouth dropped open while I watched this hulk of a man— a Delta Force operator, capable of taking out five men without breaking a sweat— grow uncomfortable because of my bra. I bit my lip to contain a laugh.”
Finally, I looked up to his face. “If I’d lost you,” I croaked, the meds loosening my tongue. Shaking his head, he held me at arm’s length and met my gaze. “I’m kind of like gum on your shoe— not that easy to get rid of.”
“I’m just wondering who exactly the enemy is.” He paused. “And if I’ve been fighting the wrong war all these years.” I laid a hand on his arm. “We knew when they ambushed us in the park there was a connection up the chain of command. The question is how high it goes.”
The Taste of Treachery by Emily Bybee is a gripping and suspenseful romantic suspense oozing with tension, intrigue, and mystery. I was drawn to this book by the gorgeous cover, diving in to find a story of corporate greed, dangerous experimental chemicals, government cover-ups, conspiracy, high stakes, and ruthless pursuit. Harper’s world is turned upside down when she receives a distress call from her brother who is serving in the armed forces overseas. His call is cut short- leaving Harper beside herself with worry- especially when he seems to drop off the face of the earth. Then she discovers an email sent by her brother that leads her on a dark and dangerous investigation in the hopes of finding him alive. With the help of her brother’s best friend, Caleb- these two are in for a tense adventure that uncovers a conspiracy with far-reaching and deadly consequences, and the trail leads from a greedy corporation right into the heart of Washington and the powerful movers and shakers who run the country. When Harper and Caleb are targeted by ruthless assassins, and the people around them start to become casualties, these two have no choice but to face danger head-on. What happens, you might ask? Well, this is definitely worth the read to find out all the intriguing developments for yourself. I was totally invested in this story and characters, both impressed by them, while also frustrated at times by their lack of logical thinking. Things like Harper having flaming-red hair, becoming a ‘wanted person’, but not once thinking to cover her hair, or dye it etc- just run around with a very identifiable feature for the assassins to follow. Also, she is a hacker- and yet for the majority of the story she did very little in the way of ‘hacking’. I would have had her hack her way into the corporation, the politicians, and any other relevant parties to get the dirty on them well and truly before everything got so out of hand lol…. But it did make for some tense encounters- so get set for a wild ride! Looking forward to more from Ms. Bybee. Happy Reading…

Being a rodeo queen is the only dream Trinity Redhawk ever had. To be a girl with a strong platform who looked different from all the other smiling faces that she saw growing up.
But with that came the dedication to putting other things aside. And that included a relationship with Shooter Price. Breaking up with him allowed Trinity to go after her dreams and achieve her goals.
Now, she’s a week away from passing off her crown and being done with that part of her life and looking forward to something else. She can’t help but let her gaze wander and settle on Shooter all over again.
Shooter Price swallowed a bitter pill when he came home after failing to accomplish his goal and was forced to find some other avenue to go down for his adult life. What made it worse was seeing the girl who broke his young heart achieve her dreams while he was left feeling lesser.
And then they danced. Whether it was the song, the girl, the place, or all of it together, it brought something back to Shooter he thought long gone.
But the women in his family don’t care for Trinity and what she did to him. Can he establish something with Trinity now without outside interference or were they never meant to be?

Wilde
Book 1 5 stars This book was absolutely fantastic! The story arc, the background story in the beginning, character development, so many good things I can’t decide where to start first. I usually read female protagonists because they are more relatable for me, but wow reading about Ian and his struggles made me think of my own. This author absolutely hit it out of the park. Ian struggles with who he is and what his power does to him if he uses it. He makes a decision in which he thought was right at the time, but now is paying for it dearly. Will he come to accept his magic and what it does? Or will he fall into the addiction it brings and never look back again?
Book 2 5 Stars I highly highly suggest reading the first book first, as this does pick up where book one left off. Just when I thought this series couldn’t get any better, the second book blows it out of the water. Ian is literally left with nothing. No memories, no money, no weapons, nothing. He has to go through his light trying to figure out how to with his magic all over again, how he is linked to the crown of stones, and how to be a leader all over again. High expectations are set on Ian when the rebellion needs him and his magic and his connection to the crown of stones. In this thrilling second installment of Crown of Stones, be prepared to have an adventure because this second book sure takes you for a wild ride!

L. Schneider – Review by Crystal Jimmo
Art of Deception is the seventh book in the Notebook Mysteries series. I have enjoyed this series quite a bit. This novel includes family drama, mystery, and intrigue to keep the reader turning the pages. I enjoy the strong female lead and her investigative skills. The story is appropriate for younger readers as well as adults and can be read on one sitting like I did!
This was a good 4 star read. This is Alex and Hope’s story in a beautiful paradise. Hope needs a change and when fate steps in she finds herself in a tropical place running a business. This is where she meets Alex. Sparks fly. Can these two get past their pain and find love again? Overall I really enjoyed this read. It makes me really want to go on vacation, LOL. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I enjoyed this story and I look forward to reading more from this author and series. 1-click and get started today.

What a fantastic book! This rating is more like a 4.7. I can not wait for the next one. This is the first time reading this author and will not be the last. This book takes us from a normal life to it being taken completely away in the blink of an eye. An earthquake opens up another world of aliens and other unworldly beasts. Life as Selene and Rayden is forever changed. We then get Sirius, and I can’t wait to read about him and his world. Fantastic read!

This book is part of a series, but it is truly a stand-alone book as well. I love the small town setting. The author certainly gets it right when she portrays life in rural America- especially the fact that many people have to commute to “good” jobs. The lifelong love of the main characters began in childhood, and took many twists and turns. The theme of family is featured strongly throughout this book.

Wheel of Evil is the third book in the Hani’s Daughter series. Neferet is back with a new mystery to solve. Her uncle got involved with some bad business dealings and people have been turning up dead. Both Neferet and her father, Hani, start investigating in their own ways. Will they be able to solve the mystery together? This is another great addition to this cozy mystery series. The author takes us on a journey through Ancient Egypt and what a journey it is. I enjoyed this final book in the series. I liked that the author had Neferet and her father working together to solve this mystery.
We head back to Ancient Egypt in the second novel in the series. Neferet goes on another mysterious adventure trying to solve who the dead man is that washed ashore and who killed him. Full of twists and turns you won’t want to miss. Another great cozy mystery from this author.
Wow!! I was sucked in from the first chapter. I work in social services and really enjoyed that the FMC runs a youth center. She is angry and upset that the center may close due to a lack of financing and meets Noah who is willing to help her out. Both of these mc have a past that they are trying to heal from and can overcome their trauma.

Having read and enjoyed the previous books in this series I was looking forward to this latest instalment, and I was not disappointed. Childhood sweethearts Mallory and Beckett married in a pretend wedding on Beckett’s family Apple farm. Mallory still treasures those memories fifteen years later, but now it’s her brother Evan and fiancé CeCe who are getting married. Beckett is returning to his family’s farm having lost his grandfather. He has many memories surrounding his childhood home and they tend to involve Mallory, the love of his life. As maid of honour and best man Mallory and Beckett are spending a lot of time together which is making it hard to deny their feelings for one another and their obvious chemistry. Fearing that Evan won’t support them dating the couple decide to date in secret. However, as their relationship develops they can’t keep it a secret for ever. This is a heartwarming and sweet romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Once again the small town of Buckeye Falls, where everyone knows each other was brought vividly to life by the descriptive narrative. Mallory and Beckett are both likeable and relatable characters and their chemistry came across in the story. I loved being back in Buckeye Falls and I have been hooked by each story in this enjoyable and engaging series.

This MC romance kept me hooked throughout. The series focuses on the members of The Merciless Few MC and this is Fiend’s story. Fiend has a difficult past including suffering with a major injury. He knows he’s made lots of mistakes and doesn’t think he deserves happiness or love. This is a fast paced, page turner with plenty of drama, suspense, angst and MC romance. The storyline took me on an emotional rollercoaster and the descriptive narrative brought the world of the MC vividly to life.

If you’re looking for a book that will consume your every waking thought, then look no further! The synopsis barely scratches the surface of what this book has to offer. The author has crafted a truly immersive experience with characters that leap off the page and a plot that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I couldn’t recommend this book more highly – it’s a true masterpiece that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.

As with the rest of the series, this book is a brilliant novella about two strong and interesting characters. Although this book could be read as a standalone, I definitely wouldn’t recommend it. For me, this is one of those books that would be better for having read the previous two books. I loved the story. It matched the characters so well and I was pulled into it right from the start. This author is one I never fail to enjoy, and it is books like this that show me why. I thoroughly enjoyed reading more of this series I am hope there is more to come.

This book is a brilliant addition to the series and I think is the one that has my favourite characters so far. I loved the connection between Alexis and Seb. It felt so real and convincing, right from the moment they are together. The overall story was exciting to read. The author kept it moving with so many twists and turns. I found myself completely pulled in to the story and what was going on. This has been a really strong series so far and this book just adds to that. I would definitely recommend it and I am looking forward to the next one.
This is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot Series. This was a really enjoyable fantasy adventure. It was packed with action, twists, secrets, deceptions and finding your true place where you belong.
Morgan has grown up in London with her Aunt Nim. She’s always had magic but it’s very weak. She thinks of herself as a normal person. And even though her Aunt tells her stories about Camelot, and the fact she is a princess Morgan believes they are just stories made up to entertain her as a child. They couldn’t possible be true right?
When her Aunt Nim is attacked and killed Morgan is transported to Camelot. She is told she needs to fight to prove herself and regain her claim to the throne. But can she do it? Is she really this powerful witch everyone seems to think she is? Will her magic even work? And will she be able to overcome all the challenges and obstacles in front of her?
This was a captivating read that I couldn’t put down. I can’t wait to read more.

Her Sapphire Blade is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot series. It is an exciting portal fantasy that draws on Arthurian legends within a modern setting. Morgan lives in modern London, in a world where magic users are discrete but present in society. Her own magic is weak in comparison to those around her, but this changes when she returns to Camelot, a land she knows only from fairy stories.
I enjoyed the cast of characters in this book. I hope we get to see more of Taron and Talia in the rest of the series! Morgan meets many different characters as she navigates the tournament at the centre of this book, it will be interesting to see who comes back in the later books.
I found the tournament plot particularly enjoyable to read after watching lots of Olympic events this summer! It’s kind of like fantasy Olympics and reading those scenes felt like the tension of watching sports and hoping my favourite athletes did enough to get to the next level.
This book gets five stars from me! I’d recommend it to fans of urban fantasy and mythology-inspired stories. I’m looking forward to the next book!

Be My Little Baby (London Detective Agency Book @) by Stephanie R. Caffrey is my first read by this author and she delivered! Of course, like always, I have not read the first book of the series, but I didn’t feel to left behind by starting with the second book. I will be going back to read the first book so that way I can get the full gist of the second book. I thought that the story flowed well and like I said, that is without having the information from the first book in the series. I was captivated by Tessa and James’ interactions with each other. Tessa is a new bakery owner and expects that it will take a while to get her business off the ground, but she is in for a big surprise! Unfortunately for Tessa, she has acquired a stalker who will not leave her be, so Tessa has to seek help from James (the detective). James tries his best to keep things with Tessa strictly professional, but there is something about her that makes him want to break his own rules. I thought that this book was entertaining, funny, very well written and just overall a good story. I will definitely be going back and reading the first book in the series, and I encourage you to pick up a copy and read for yourself!

Caffrey – Review by Mary Espinoza
This is a great trilogy….and I love dark fantasy. I definitely recommend this series. It has so much to love…action, fantasy, danger, magic…..The story-telling from CL is top notch.
Book 1 The Crown of Stones Magic Price Wonderful fantasy story….Magic, mayhem, drama, danger and suspense that had me totally engaged to see what happens next. Ian Troy is a bounty hunter that is living in exile…paying the price of war. When his past comes crashing in will Ian Troy protect his people and land within his magic when he sworn off to use it…..
Book 2 The Crown of Stones Magic Scars This story was fantastic!! Magic, mayhem, drama and darkness… this fast paced story has it all. I very highly recommend reading Book 1 as this is Book 2 in the series and picks up a couple of years later where Ian Troy wakes after being imprisoned for 2 years….Drugged and beaten… Ian is tortured and comes around unbeknownst to him…a prisoner after 2 years….not remembering what happened. Of course King Draken is at his full rule and cruel and dark as ever. Ian Troy is rescued and trying to put the pieces back together especially trying to find the truth still in the Crown of Stones….
If you love a gripping fantasy story I very highly recommend this series.

L. Schneider – Review by Lorralei Hoerner
Ooooo this I’m loving this cover ! It’s one of those you just want to climb into and enjoy for yourself 📚❣️
My bags are packed , my passport is ready , sunscreen and snorkel ready , I’m heading out 😉
So Hope has been working at the Rosemont Inn and has been dating Kyle for 2 years , life in Chicago is good , there’s a promotion up for grabs at the Inn and she applies , confident she’s going to get it , life seems good but life does have a way of throwing you a curveball or 2 at times and it would seem poor Hope not only doesn’t get the promotion but Kyle decides to move on to greener pastures 🤷♀️🙈
Don’t fret things do look up when she wins a dive resort in St Croix in the Virgin Island with a raffle ! I know what luck she had ! Change is as good as a holiday and those turquoise waters are just what she needed and didn’t even know it 😉well I do think Alex also plays a role 😍
The previous owner ups and leaves but instead of hitting panic stations Hope takes it in her stride but the staff were very good and so supportive , they’re their own little family really 🤗
Alex has scars but the island life seems to be good for him and as a dive master he’s living a good life but Hope lights a spark within that he didn’t think he’d feel again…..they’re each others healing balm actually and in such a beautiful setting !
I loved watching Alex and Hope evolve , heal and create their own story 🥰 looking forward to the rest of the series ❣️📚
