A Perfect Fit by Zoe Lee My rating: 4 of 5 stars A PERFECT FIT is the first book I’ve read by Zoe Lee and I really enjoyed it. It seems as if some of the secondary characters may have been introduced in a previous book as they were all fully developed. This is a […]
On Her Terms by Madison Quinn My rating: 4 of 5 stars ON HER TERMS is book 2 in “The Arrangement Duet” This is not a stand-alone and Book 1 absolutely has to be read first. Part 2 is equally as detailed as part 1 and there were definitely times I skimmed to get to […]
On His Terms by Madison Quinn My rating: 4 of 5 stars ON HIS TERMS is one of those books that was a little different than I expected it to be. Based on the intro, I thought it was going to be much darker. This story reminded me a little bit of 50 Shades. It […]
Shattered by Nicole Banks My rating: 4 of 5 stars SHATTERED is the first book in the “Shattered Hearts Duet”. It is a fast N/A story about friends and family. There are moments that change everyone’s lives and finding a new normal can sometimes be difficult to navigate. I really liked the way the story […]
Finding Ruth by Cynthia Hamilton My rating: 4 of 5 stars Mother / daughter relationships are so complex and ever changing. As a woman who recently lost my mother, I was a little worried going into this book. I wasn’t sure what emotions it would evoke. Real life is stranger than fiction. as shown in […]
Guilty Pleasures Volume 3 by Joyce McCarthy My rating: 4 of 5 stars Brad, Brad, Brad. Oh Brad what a randy lad you are. GUILTY PLEASURES is the highlight reel of Brad’s adventures. It is a a quick journal entry in the diary of Brad’s sex life. Almost like a 100th episode of your favorite […]
Simply Irresistible: A Totally Sweet Love Story by Jennifer L. Allen My rating: 4 of 5 stars A super sweet romance that discusses the age old battle of movies (are movies from the 80s better than the 90s – the answer is yes). OK so that’s not the point of the story, but I wanted […]
Sweetest Obsessions: A Contemporary Romance Boxed Set Collection by Jane Anthony My rating: 5 of 5 stars I love anthologies that have stories of variety and lengths. It makes it easy to put down and pick up in between adulting. Sugar & Spice by Phoebe Alexander is like “Undercover Boss” and “Norma Rae” all rolled […]
Legacy of Luck by Christy Nicholas My rating: 4 of 5 stars “The Druid’s Brooch Series” is a a series of books that can be read as standalone stories. The common thread is a brooch that is passed on to family over the course of many generations. LEGACY OF LUCK is not my favorite of […]
Siren’s Call: Cursed Seas by Amy McKinley My rating: 5 of 5 stars SIREN’S CALL is one of those books that I wouldn’t normally have considered, yet I’ve always enjoyed the author’s writing so grabbed it when it became available. An enjoyable read with suspense and intrigue. There is a dark humor in this story […]
Tails Always Wins by C.A. King My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is a one click author for me and I am always excited when a new series begins… TAILS ALWAYS WINS is the first book in the “Chasing Tails” series. If you took the paranormal element from the book, we could be reading […]
The Season Finale by Heather Silvio This whole series has been like reading chapter books for adults. Each book has characters who weave in and out of the beautifully designed story. We get to revisit characters we’ve already met and meet new characters who bring fresh light to the story. As I read, I did […]
Sanctuary by Sarah Biglow My rating: 4 of 5 stars SANCTUARY is the second book in the “Captivity Series” and picks up where book one -CAPTIVITY-ends. Once again, these writers have written a visual story full of action and adventure. It is a quick read with a story that has an ebb and flow that […]
Time Tourist Outfitters, Ltd. by Christy Nicholas My rating: 4 of 5 stars “Where’s your ideal? Where would you go if you could go anywhere, anywhen??” Such is the way this story starts. There are rules in time travel and if they are broken, a chain of events can happen to alter things beyond repair. […]
Undercover by Via Mari My rating: 5 of 5 stars As the “Billionaire Bodyguards” series continues and I get further away from the “Torzial Affair” series I realize a re-read is in order. UNDERCOVER is a fast paced suspense that had me all over the place trying to figure out the details as the author […]
Of War and Taters by Ashley Chappell My rating: 5 of 5 stars A quick and satirical read that that was full of humor. The story flows well from beginning to end and it kept me intrigued and humored. OF WAR AND TATERS is one of those books that I want to write a flowing […]
Rule Breaker by Phoebe Alexander My rating: 5 of 5 stars I have a rule for myself that is; if I cannot define a word, I must look it up. RULE BREAKER had me break my own rule because I thought I knew what a certain word/lifestyle is, but I was wrong. RULE BREAKER has […]
Dangerously Close To Extinction by C.A. King My rating: 5 of 5 stars C.A. King is a one click author for me and I always enjoy her stories. This is the first book in a new series about a (fictional?) town called Knollville. Knollville isn’t on a map, can’t be found by GPS and the […]
September Breeze by Nikki Lynn Barrett My rating: 5 of 5 stars SEPTEMBER BREEZE is a story set in. Cinnamon Bay. Small town romance is totally in my wheel house and books with soundtracks are even better. This town is filled with quirkiness (most especially in the form of three amazing women who want the […]
Happily Ever After – Brothers of Camelot Style by Necie Navone My rating: 5 of 5 stars This should be read after book 1 as it is a continuation of the story. This is a fast read set in a shorter time than some of the other stories. There is a bit of jumping around, […]
17 Marigold Lane by R.M. Gilmore My rating: 5 of 5 stars Wow – 17 MARIGOLD LANE is the first book in the “Prudence Penderhaus Series” and I admit that the cover made me think it was going to read like a Stephen King novel (awesome reference to one of SK’s novels). It is not […]
Love Me, Dreamy by Laura Burton My rating: 5 of 5 stars I read this book completely blind. I didn’t look at cover, look at the blurb or read any reviews. For the first few chapters, I had no idea where the book was heading and I almost looked to see what it was about. […]
Orion’s Kiss by Claire Luana My rating: 5 of 5 stars I enjoy stories that modernize Greek Mythology and weave new and old into a story that holds the myth origins to their “truth”. Orion’s kiss is just that type of story. It is YA and I think the targeted demographic will learn things without […]
Captivity by Sarah Biglow My rating: 4 of 5 stars First book in a new series and the first book I’ve read by this author. Great world building, a new twist to a well loved genre and a story that has very clear plot points. This was a quick and enjoyable read. **** review by […]
Proper Impulse by Zeia Jameson My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is book 4 in “The Jaded Lily” series and can absolutely be read as a standalone. PROPER IMPULSE stars Milo as a cop and Juniper as someone who cares more about others than she cares about her self. This book was a quick […]
The Dreamer’s Vengeance by Helen Tyree My rating: 4 of 5 stars THE DREAMERS VENGEANCE is the first book I’ve read by this author and I enjoyed the visual writing. It is a story with great world building and lots of detailed character. There were several times I found myself backtracking to figure out what […]
TWO HEARTS UNDER FIRE by Tamara Ferguson My rating: 4 of 5 stars TWO HEARTS UNDER FIRE is the 8th book in the “Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Series” and can absolutely be read as a stand-alone. There are characters and story threads that weave in and out of the entire series, but it is always […]
Whom Shall I Kiss… An Earl, A Marquess, or A Duke? by Laura A. Barnes My rating: 3 of 5 stars I am not typically a fan of Regency Romance but this seemed like it would be a lighthearted read with a clever protagonist. The blurb set the story up nicely and I imagined it […]
Blood Relations by Lonna Enox My rating: 4 of 5 stars **** BLOOD RELATIONS is the second book in the Sorrel Janes’ cozy mystery series. The author does an amazing job of filling in any blank spots through the use of storytelling and flashbacks. The writing is dynamic and I was fully engaged in the […]
Blackbird’s Deliverance by Lisette Kristensen My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is Book 4 in the series and I think it is important to read the stories in order. As with any good series, there are threads that weave through each story to keep them connected. Each of the stories in the series are […]
