Goddess of Everything by Paul DeBlassie III My rating: 5 of 5 stars Absolute thrill ride from beginning to end! One of the best psychological thrillers I’ve read in a long time!

Truth or Kill by A.C. Kramer My rating: 5 of 5 stars *TRIGGER WARNING* BOOK CONTAINS DARK CONTENT (not for the faint of heart) I, uh, need a few minutes to gather myself and you will too once you read A.C. Kramer’s Truth or Kill in one sitting because you won’t be able to put […]

The Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass by Lois Wickstrom My rating: 5 of 5 stars Very cute children’s story! I love the aspect of Trezzie as the imaginary friend that not every character can see.

Dark Sparrow Box Set: The Complete 6-Book Series by India Kells My rating: 5 of 5 stars Get the boxset…don’t even consider getting 1 just to see if you’ll like it…you will.

Devil’s Breath by Lang Johnson My rating: 5 of 5 stars Dark, Spicy, Edge-of-Your-Seat Suspense…this book has it all. I was hooked from the blurb of the book and Lang Johnson just kept pulling me in. This is definitely not a book for the faint-of-heart. There are lies, betrayals, *spicy* times, love, hurt, anger, and […]
Flame and Crystal Thorns by Kay L. Moody My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’m such a sucker for a good YA novel. Fantasy has never been a genre that I gravitate toward but what drew me in right away was the amazing cover. I mean…LOOK at it! And once I read the summary, I […]

The Fighter by India Kells My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the 3rd book in the series by India Kells. While it works just fine as a standalone, you can tell that there is more backstory between Gage and his friends. That doesn’t mean you can’t read this book by itself; however, if […]

The Last Cabin Girl by Tom Swyers My rating: 4 of 5 stars Great read! The Last Cabin Girl is set in the not so distant past of 2020 during the beginning of the pandemic. I’ll admit, I was a little weary at first because it’s still happening, but I was intrigued. It was definitely […]
Deacon by CJ Warrant My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was my first MC romance book and boy did the author deliver! I absolutely loved that there was more than just *spicy* romance. You really get to know the characters, especially Deacon and Olivia, and the good, bad, and ugly of them. This was […]

Doctor D’s Orderly Affair by C.A. King My rating: 3 of 5 stars While the story has a great plot line, it wasn’t as nearly developed as it could have been. Everything felt rushed. I also wish there were more *spicy* scenes. The 2 that were in there were decent, but they could have been […]
Savage Secrets by Amy McKinley My rating: 5 of 5 stars I swear! The books in this series just get better and better! McKinley does it again with a deeper look into two lesser known characters.
