Nightfall in Deptford (Crescent Moon Chronicles #4)Nightfall in Deptford by L.E. Towne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a really interesting read. The author does an amazing job with the characters and the whole time travel element to the story made it really unique. I didn’t realise this book was part of a series but I will definately be going back to read them from the beginning. Even though it is part of a series it can be read as a standalone and is still really enjoyable.

There is lots of intrigue and mystery in this story and it is definately a story that keeps you gripped and guessing what will happen. I love the attention the author made to the relationship between the characters and how being from different times has effect on the relationships.

The playwright Christopher Marlowe is set on the path to meet his end surrounded by criminals and spies.
However that doesn’t happen and because of that it changes the course and flow of time.
Now it’s down to his love Tam, who lives in the present day to figure out what went wrong.
Now begins the adventure of Tam travelling back to 1593, to rescue Tam and help him escape, however even with facing all the odds and a shifter who will play a part in Christopher’s death, Tam has a difficult choice to make. Does she succeed in helping Christopher to escape his path and demise to save the man she loves ag the risk of changing the future. Her present life? Or does she allow the course of time to run as it should, taking away the man she loves but saving everyone and her life in the future.
This story is really good and really gripping. The mix of time travel, mystery, Romance and paranormal was an amazing combination that makes this story a must read.

Nightfall in Deptford (Crescent Moon Chronicles #4)Nightfall in Deptford by L.E. Towne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When Tam Paradiso learns that the man she loves, Christopher Marlowe, has been sentenced to death she decides to risk everything to save him. There are only a few snags in her plan which she must work around to save him. The first hurdle is that Tam is in present day Philadelphia and Christopher is back in the year 1593. Not only must Tam time travel back to 1593 but she must find a way to rescue Christopher from the White Tower after he has been wrongly imprisoned there. It seems that Christopher has gotten himself wrapped up in the middle of a political conspiracy and the result has been his conviction of a crime he did not commit. His impending death has completely altered the timeline of the future, so it is imperative that he be rescued, and the timeline be corrected.

Tam is a strong woman who is used to fighting her own battles, but this time has no choice but to take someone with her to help. Tam has recently learned that she is pregnant which complicates time travel and risks the life of her unborn child. With few choices on who she can ask to help, Tam is forced to choose her ex-boyfriend Theo, a banished Fae warrior. Will Tam and Theo be able to save Christopher and correct the timeline of the future?

The author did a great job with the dual timelines in this book, and I felt as though I was there in 1593 with the characters experiencing the conditions as they were in that time. I could smell and almost taste the foods they ate. I could hear the sounds of the busy streets and see the decrepit conditions many lived in. Each scene was so vividly described that I felt as though I was right there in that time experiencing everything that Tam, Theo, and Christopher were doing. I loved the character of Tam and admired the lengths that she would go to so that she could save the man she loved. Even if that involved enlisting the help of an ex-lover that she wanted nothing to do with. Theo was also to be admired for stepping up to help his ex-girlfriend save her new lover. Christopher was someone that you could not help but feel bad for after being imprisoned in such horrific conditions. I highly recommend this book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I saw the title, I was drawn to this book- mainly for the reason that the nearby town near me is also Deptford. Silly as this sounds, immediately realizing this book is the fourth in a series by E L Towne, I read the synopsis and decided to give it a go.
Christopher Marlowe, a playwright awaits his fate in 1593. Can his love, Tam Paradiso rescue him in time? Oh, by the way she lives in current day Philadelphia. This story was captivating from beginning to end.
I’m glad I stumbled upon this book, because like I said this is fourth in a series, but it read well as a stand-alone book. The characters come alive on the pages and I felt as if I was transported through time with them on their journey. I would recommend reading this book!

What a fantastic historical fantasy adventure! River Witch was captivating, intriguing and full of incredibly written content. The characters were enchanting and the overall plot was incredible.

Who could not relate to characters living in one manner but yearning for something more meaningful. It’s a coming of age type scenario that plays out beautifully throughout this book.

The author describes the forest, river, vivid dreams and characters, Hester & Aaron so well that you feel like you are truly inside of the story surrounded by their lives. I was highly impressed.

I believe most readers will thoroughly enjoy this read thanks to the author’s extraordinary gift. I can’t wait to see what else the author creates.

The Hunter (The Freemasons, #2)The Hunter by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 2nd book in a series which I’m truly loving right now. I jumped into this right after reading the first book in the series and I can say that I enjoyed this just as much, if not even more than the first one.
Set around 4 best friends who are all in authority positions in the Freemasons in Australia, each book can be read as a standalone. But, as I loved the first book I would recommend you read them all and in order so you don’t give yourself spoilers.
In this book we get the story of Dominic Cacciari, the top dog in the lodge, The Right Worshipful Master and Gemma Hughes, entertainment journalist. We are given a brief interlude to Dominic and Gemma in the first book which made me really eager to read their story and it certainly lived up to my expectations and more.
Dominic and Gemma’s story is an enemies-to-lovers story that is full of drama, intrigue and secrets. Lots of secrets. Will they both be willing to give up their secrets in order to make a life together?
This is a great book which I definitely recommend.

5/5 Stars

Huntress by Karina Kantas

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. Huntress is a great book. Either it was a fast paced book or I was reading fast. I didn’t want this to end. The author sure knows how to keep a reader happy. This book has a bit of everything that you would normally need a couple books for.

Dior is the nickname of someone who is going to get revenge on the Wolves. Not a smart move, but she’s doing it for her family. For the brother she never got to meet. For the uncle that was killed. She doesn’t need a knife or gun to get her revenge. Writing is her weapon and she’s going to make them pay. The quote I chose for Dior is: “Nah, I don’t feel good singing with anyone else. It’s not the same; I miss Todd and the others.”

Highly recommended for Dark MC lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I like finding new authors. This is the first book by this author I have read and although not my usual genre I was not let down. It is a book for mature audiences so be warned. I found that the author had created a very unique world and really brought the characters to life. I really felt as though I was right in the midst of the drama.

I did find some of the subject matter a little hard to read but I give credit where credit is due as even with the subject matter it was not off putting. I am more than willing to read more from this author as well as the series. I just also want to just remind every one once again that it is a mature audience book.

This book certainly had the wow factor going strong. The book mesmerized me as I read, and I could not put it down. I was intrigued all the way through. The book gave so much! Amazing read!

I loved the take on the story that this book held. I always loved contents of magic and witches. The issue with the witches in the book, was very intriguing and something I have never had the pleasure to read on. The author wrote and created good and strong characters, that were all different, but greatly added to the story I was intrigued and held with my own suspense all the way through! Loved it!

Great and amazing read. It was different, which made it more awesome. I was pulled in and kept in suspense as I read! Greatly enjoyed it! Highly recommend this author and book without a doubt!

I’ve really enjoyed the Antipodes series and the author has maintained the high standards of the entire series in this concluding finale. As with the other books, there’s plenty of sci-fi/dystopian, environmental and mythological themes, which I really enjoyed. But most of all, I was so keen to see where the characters would end up and the ending was satisfying. I’ve really enjoyed going on this journey with these characters and I will miss them. Highly recommend this whole series.

Coming in at book 4 of the series, it really has you wanting to know more. The suspense, the romance, the intensity just keep you so very curious as to what is around the corner. I love the writing. The characters are all very well-written and developed. This is a terrific book. I am going to go back and start with book 1 so I can see what happened before.

What a cute and sad story! Mama Warbler ended up with a cuckoo egg in her nest. She could have kicked it out but kept it. What was one more? She just accepted it. Because she accepted the cuckoo bird, her nest was safe from the cat. Neighbor bird, however, wasn’t. She lost an egg to the cat. We shouldn’t judge by the looks, smells, etc. Everyone has a role in our lives. I did find it interesting that the eggs aren’t that much bigger and even though the bird is larger, the momma still takes on the baby cuckoo. Even an old lady can learn new facts. Cute children book that makes a great story time book

4 Stars

 

Chevalier is the first book in the War Horses series by Scott Warren. This is the first book that I have read by Mr. Warren, so I really didn’t know what to expect going into the story. I was intrigued by the title, the interesting cover, and the blurb’s promise of a captivating plot. So I took a chance and immediately plunged in to explore.
I am so glad that I took a chance on this book, because it proved to be a fantastic Mecha military sci-fi story with an action-packed storyline, war, combat, adventure, tension, danger, dramatic developments, fantastic world-creation, and even a little humour just to keep things from getting too heavy.
What happens when a tank mechanic finds himself thrust from behind the lines right into the face of war? Vandal and the rest of the Chevalier’s will need to rise to the challenge to face off against seemingly overwhelming odds if they are to stand a chance of surviving. Vandal has the extra challenge of trying to learn on the fly, to competently control and operate the upright tank, something he was never trained to do before. What happens makes for an engrossing story.
Looking forward to Book #2, and exploring more of Mr. Warren’s work.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Scott Warren!

Bycatch by Alexander Blevens took me by surprise. When I initially chose this book I thought it would be a ‘good’ story, something I could use as a bit of a ‘palate cleanse’ between some of my ‘heavier’ reads. But this took me by surprise- in a great way. It grabbed me right from the get-go and didn’t release me till I had read every word. I was so engrossed in the story that I ended up reading it in one sitting. Sleep is overrated, after all lol.
It is an entertaining and suspenseful thriller with historical details, crime (and investigation), family dynamics, tortured souls, human frailty, tension, intrigue, challenges, complexity, secrets, interconnected details, moving moments, guilt, murder, greed, culture, and more.
This is a well-written, detailed, and descriptive story with skillfully crafted characters who all had their own unique personalities, quirks, and flaws.
I have been debating how to review this story ever since I finished reading it, not because there was anything wrong…. but because I don’t want to give too much away. I think I will let the blurb speak for the story and recommend going into the story a little blind and let the author, plot, and characters surprise you with a riveting read.
If you love a bit of a twisty thriller, with tortured souls, secrets, murder, mystery, historical details, and gripping tension- then you will definitely want to snap up a copy for yourself to explore- asap.
As this is his debut novel, I eagerly await more from Mr. Blevens.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Alexander Blevens!

Unveiling Beulah is my first Audible by this author and this narrator.   I truly enjoyed listening to this book and the narrator did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life using different tones . The characters are relatable and fully developed and made me feel like apart of the story.  This is a wonderfully written story where the past and the present collide. Can Lucian and Bea find love and happiness? I highly recommend listening to this fast paced story that once you start listening you won’t want to stop until the end. I definitely will be looking at what other books this author  has written. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

This story starts out letting the reader know that Hester is no ordinary girl, just like the river is no ordinary river. The river nymphs call to her to join them in the water, and she’s pulled away by a mysterious stranger before she can fall in. I love her wonderful description of the setting (I’m not sure of time and place) and character interaction within the text. Magical realism, history, folklore, green witchery, and adventure line the pages of this wonderful story!

Stumble & Fall (A Legacy of Silence, #2)Stumble & Fall by Amy Rivers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Stumble and Fall was interesting. Definitely a lot of themes but they all weave together beautifully. Some very dark themes that could be trigger warnings for some, so be warned. I thoroughly enjoyed it. A story about two sisters who go through so many obstacles in their lives that most people would struggle with. Their lives intersect in a way that they never expected.
Tilly went through extreme trauma as a teen, and it’s followed her in life. Becoming a victim of DV when with her high school boyfriend she realizes now that it was bigger than her. It’s the way they recruit for the trafficking ring, and is heavily involved in what her sister and her boyfriend are currently going up against. Now moving back to her home state with current boyfriend has brought on extreme anxiety she’s trying to cope with. Till tragedy strikes….
Kate is out to take the ring down. Not only to avenge her sister but also the teenage girl she lost at the high school who got mixed up with the wrong crowd. Kate and Roman were involved deeply in trying to take down the trafficking ring recently. Kate as the high school counselor and Roman local law enforcement. Unfortunately for them it wasn’t before they could save a teenager’s life.
What happens when they get too close again?
Will they succeed this time?
I liked the story the author put on the page. Even with the darker themes I enjoyed. I look forward to digging deeper into this author’s other books. don’t let the dark themes stop you. Me, I’m going back to read book 1, since I definitely started book 2.

When I saw there was a second installment of The View From Here, I had to grab it immediately! The first book was so excellent and the second did not disappoint. At the end of the first book, I wanted more, but I couldn’t figure out how that could happen with the earthquake. When the book opens with April telling Thomas she found another entrance to the realm they visited, I was excited for the newest adventure of these two friends. It seems they are more prepared on this journey, there are some laughs and a lot of mystery into this world and the beings they are seeing. The description of everything is so excellently worded, I really truly felt I was there, the world I created in my mind was so vivid. I really can’t wait to see what happens in the third book, although I am going to be sad to see it end. This author really has a way with words.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this book! I didn’t see Ravenna as an “ice bitch” at all, not like the other guys on her team always said. I saw the reverse, and saw them as being childish and arrogant. The characters are all nicely developed and the whole or universe in which they live in is a fun concept. The thought and time it took to develop these ideas blew my mind. Dravos, this poor guy has been through it, but I love how he knew he had a connection to Ravenna, and she to him, even though neither wanted to admit it at first. The adventure they go on together to save Ravenna’s lover, all they encounter and go through is very engaging. I could not put this book down, it is short, but packed with romance, adventure, double crossing and action. This book painted every scene vividly into my mind and I look forward to more, especially a story involving Bethel and Tract.
