Ritual Obsession: Blood Obsession by RL Dunn – Review by Shavon Brown

Ritual Obsession (Blood Obsession Book 1)Ritual Obsession by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

So I am going to start this review with a few warnings:

Warning 1: There is a very detailed scene of Sexual Assault in this book. It happens to the character named Bobbi. It is very hard to read as she is raped.

Warning 2: This is a very good book, but it ends on a major cliffhanger and nothing has been resolved. We know who did it, but there is a great chance he could get away with it, Someone is in the hospital fighting for there life.

With those warnings in mind for future or almost readers. Truth is I could not put this book down, it was definitely a page turner.

Rose the veteran detective and Rose the new detective to the precinct get partnered together but that is not all. A string of murders of working girls gets the whole precinct involved including Detective Commander Marco, who is an old flame of Detective Rose.

Honestly, IMO this book plays out like an episode of Matlock. Where you have all the pieces as the reader or viewer but you are waiting for the detectives to put everything together. They do get there but by the time they do it seems a little to late.

Their is drama for our drama lovers as we have multiple office romances including, Marco & Rose, Bobbi & Max and Rose & Brian.

Like I said in my warning. This book does end on some major cliffhangers so if you want the conclusion to the story you will need to pick up book 2 and keep your fingers crossed.

Magic-Scars (The Crown of Stones, #2)Magic-Scars by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The book is set a couple years after the first book in the trilogy. Since it has been a year since I read the previous book, I was a little worried I would be lost but the way the author slipped in past events made it very easy to follow and remember what had happened.

After Troy was defeated, he was thrown into prison for 2 years. Constantly being drugged to suppress his magic. When he finally comes to, he is lost. Lost in more ways than one. He has no idea where he is, who he is, who he was, nothing.

As time goes on, Ian starts remembering, including names of people who have done him wrong. He tries to figure out who he once was and his ties to the crown. All while trying to put things back together before the reign of Draken of Langor.

I have been in love with this author since I read the first book in this trilogy last year. I really enjoy this author’s writing. They are very focused and show a lot of attention and care with everything they write. Each character comes to life and the writing style in all of their books makes you lose yourself in the fantasy world. This book was no different. I enjoyed this book a little more than the first as it was more dark and twisted. I would highly recommend this book and anything else this author writes!

Rivals (Mafia Elite Book 7) by Amy McKinley – Review by Tori Werkheiser

Rivals (Mafia Elite, #7)Rivals by Amy McKinley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This being the 7th book in the series I was very familiar with the writing style, characters and what to expect in this book and I was not disappointed at all. McKinley did a great job again of making me immediately like these characters. I’m not sure how anyone could read about Mia and not love and admire her. The first chapter was gripping and I was intrigued immediately. I have been very curious about Nico’s characters for several books now and seeing him get his happy ending felt very satisfying for me. Mia using him as a safety net to help protect her while she takes down her own family and the terrible things they have done was one the more interesting backstories i think from the series. It was equally tragic and angering to the point that you are just as upset as the characters and want to see an end to it and the people responsible. A complaint I have had with a few of the more recent books in this series is how fast they go and everything happens in just a few pages. These aren’t exactly instalove stories but they kind of feel that way in the sense that after 2 days of being with Nico she is thinking she loves him claiming she knew him long before because she would sneak into her fathers files and read about him and look at pictures of him. I did find that a little corny but as always the strong sense of family and loyalty these books always have was present here as well and it is easily one of my favorite parts of these books in this series. I do wish we had more girl time with the whole group of ladies because I especially love the way the girls rally together, shop together, cry together but also will kick ass together. Most bad-ass women I’ve ever read about are in these books. There were a few twists that I should have expected but certainly did not and I enjoyed the turn of events towards the end and the way this all played out and was a happy ending was lovely. The perfect balance between steamy romance and violence. I would still recommend this book and the entire series to anyone who enjoys mafia romances. I think McKinley does them very well.

The Prisoner of Paradise (Painted Souls Book 1) by Rob Samborn – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Prisoner of Paradise (Painted Souls, #1)The Prisoner of Paradise by Rob Samborn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

The Prisoner of Paradise is a fast-paced historical thriller. This is the first time I have read anything written by Rob and I found myself immersed in the story. It is a tale that takes place between the present and the past, in 16th century Venice.

Rob cleverly pulls together intricate threads to weave a tale with fantasy and magical realism. His vivid narrative transports the reader in time and place as we explore not only the beauty and wonder of Venice with its colour architecture and picturing serenading gondola rides but also the lesser-known dark, secret and seedy side.

The story is compelling and the plot is clever and complex as the danger and suspense grows, I was unable to put it down.

There are secrets and lies, a powerful and secret Order that are dangerous due to their beliefs and actions. With a painting that is not what it seems, a voice from a very distant past, soulmates from another time and past lives; Rob has given the reader a tale that will have you intrigued and wanting more.

I can’t wait to see what comes next.

The Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan
3 Stars

While on spring break, Angie and her three friends get kidnapped. Angie manages to escape but her friends are killed. She ends up in a psych ward framed for their murders. It’s a good plot but the book is a bit lacklustre. The story needed more depth. Everything is very surface. It’s a thriller but I never once felt an ounce of fear even when Angie was fighting off her attacker. Seeing as this happened at the beginning of the book, it should have gripped my attention but didn’t. I struggled to get into it. Once Jake and Cody entered the story, I found the book more interesting. I loved those two characters and they are what kept me reading.

The police didn’t even look at the evidence which clearly pointed to Angie being innocent. It didn’t make sense. There are multiple points of view which is fine but I found it made this story a bit all over the place. There was Angie, Jake, the killer, his boss (some prince), and a random slave on the boss’s island. It was a bit random. The author had some good ideas which could have been incredible had it been executed properly. It’s an interesting story if you want to pass the time but definitely not a gripping thriller.

In Plain Sight: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 8In Plain Sight: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 8 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In Plain Sight is the eighth book in this wonderful series wow where has the time gone. The series started out a little rocky but I stuck with it and am glad that I did because it has gotten better over time.

Logan always finds herself embroiled in another tangled web. Davisson once again weaves a multi layered and complex plot that draws us in. The Logan McKenna Mystery series has become one of my favourites. I see Davisson’s name and can’t wait to grab a copy and get going. I am never disappointed. I have said it before, but I will say it again with each book Valerie’s stories get better and this one is my favourite so far.

It is filled with intrigue and drama, tension and suspense and danger, lies and deceit, secrets and murder.

The Prisoner of Paradise (Painted Souls, #1)The Prisoner of Paradise by Rob Samborn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A gripping dual timeline, historical thriller, set in Venice, both in the present day and in the 16th century. I was hooked from page one by this novel and could not put the book down! Nick and Julia O’Connor are having a trip of a lifetime in Venice, when Nick hears a haunting voice coming from the world’s largest oil painting, ‘Tintoretto’s Paradise’. Nick believes the voice is that of his soul mate, a 16th century woman, from his previous life. Whilst Nick is adamant that the voice is real, Julia worries that her husband is suffering from a delusion. Nick’s infatuation with the past starts to effect his relationship with Julia, as he is determined to destroy the painting in order to liberate his soul mate. Nick discovers a religious order going back centuries who developed a way of extracting people’s souls, which they then imprison in Paradise.
The order have judged thousands of souls, sentencing then to eternal purgatory. In order for Nick to free his soul mate, he must destroy the painting. However, by freeing her he would also be allowing all the other souls to be reborn, and the order will never let that happen. This has a intriguing storyline which I thoroughly enjoyed, at the heart of this thriller is a love story which lasts for centuries. The descriptive narrative really brought the setting of Venice to life both in the present and in the past. The added historical details made me feel I had been transported to the 16th century, and the author has obviously done his research. The dual timeline element worked well, and I felt engaged with the main characters. The plot kept me happily turning the pages, and I definitely recommend this novel.

This is definitely one of the better retelling of Cinderella that I have read. I was hesitant to give it a go at first but I am glad I did. The characters were brilliant, they really made the book for me. Their connection was instant and believable. I loved watching the connection grow as the story developed.
I thought the book was well written.  Easy to read but caught my attention. This is a great story that I thoroughly enjoyed.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book literally roped me in right from the start I do always very much enjoy the writings and books by this wonderful author, but this one was a special read. I got a lot more than I expected, and I do not mean just romance, I mean story, plot, characters and all that jazz! This book was more than just a good time!

What I loved about this book, was that it really held its realistic notes right to the very end. I felt the characters were very connectable, and able to visualize without faults. I loved the whole forbidden romance, being Noah is Callie’s BFF and that means off limits. I didn’t expect the romance and building between these two to be as hot as it was! I loved their moments and the fire they had between them together. And Noah was great, everything you dream of having n a guy, plus great at those steamy moments sure were a bonus! I loved the dept of the characters, and how they grew within themselves as well around each other! Loved this book!

Once again this author has truly nailed it! I could not put this book down, and certainly did not want it to conclude! High recommendation from me for sure, do not pass up this must read book and author!

With as long as this series has been going for you would think that it would have started to get a bit old by now. And yet with each book added it just gets better and better. I always love jumping back into Logan’s world and thr characters surrounding her. Each book feels fresh and exciting.
This book is just like the rest of them. I was pulled into the story with ease and I could not put it down. I was desperate to see what was going to happen and just to spend more time with these characters. This is easily one of my top series and I would recommend everyone reading it.

Wicked Treasures by Melissa Erin Jackson – Reviewed By Shavon Brown

Wicked Treasure (The Charm Collector, #2)Wicked Treasure by Melissa Erin Jackson

If you are a fan of Percy Jackson then you need to read this series. You will need to start with the first book as Wicked Treasure picks up right where Diabolical Sword left off.

This book is from Kaydas perspective as we start off with her getting a courier bird from Harlow. They are still on the run. The collective are doing their best to paint themselves in a better light, doing what they can to recover from what happened in the first book.

In this book Harlow and Caspian are on the hunt for treasure. Special treasure that has sentient magic. On this adventure they face many mythical creatures mainly Trolls. But that is not the only danger they face.

This book is Urban Fantasy at it’s finest and I loved it from start to finish.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m a big fan of this series, and yet again I was gripped from start to finish with this mystery, crime thriller. I loved being back with our heroine, Logan McKenna and her now husband, Ben, both of whom feel like old friends. Logan is enjoying life at the start of this story, enjoying playing her violin, taking long morning runs, and having time with Ben. Logan then decides to volunteer at a wildlife rescue centre, and becomes involved with the wild raptors. Logan’s peace doesn’t last long though, when a coworker is found dead, and although there’s no sign of a violent struggle, the cause of death remains unclear.
Despite the autopsy finding no evidence of homicide, Logan believes it could be murder as the office had been vandalised, and things just don’t seem right. Taking matters into her own hands, she decides to uncover the killer and along with two friends she digs deeper. However, this brings her to the killer’s attention and if she’s not careful she will end up as the next victim. I was hooked by this fast paced, page turner of a novel, and literally could not put the book down. As usual the descriptive narrative brings both the characters and the setting to life, making me feel immersed in the storyline. An enjoyable and engaging read, and one which I definitely recommend.

I was struck hard with love with the prior book, and this one continued the fantasy story that I had very much fallen in love with. I loved this one I think actually, a bit more! The writing was perfectly done.

I loved this one as it still had those adventurous fantasy elements that intrigued me in the first novel, but this one went down a road that gave more and made your mind visualize more Also, loved seeing the characters from the first book again. I saw a lot of character growth in this one. I loved the more deeper we dove in this one, the more that came to light, the end is not near yet for our heros! Cant wait to see what happens next in this most amazing series! I love hoe the flow goes, the characters, and I love this book!

The series is amazing, and I very much enjoyed how the author did this installment! The author, book, sand series are must reads for sure! High recommendation for all of them from this love struck reader!

Oh this book! I don’t even know where to start. I know when I first read the synopsis I thought I was going to be in for an emotional rollercoaster but this story grabbed me and boy did it take me on a ride! I was completely captivated from the very first word until the last. The authors writing was just phenomenal, as it always is and I was honestly completely hooked. The story of Addie and Wesley had everything you could want in a story, an emotional part, angsty moments, family drama and so much more. I loved how unpredictable the story was and I absolutely adored the characters.
I cannot wait for more to come from this series!

Wow!! What a read! Historical romance is by far my favourite genre, I just absolutely love being transported back in time and this book as soon as I read the synopsis I couldn’t wait to get started and my gosh it did not disappoint at all! This was definitely one smoking hot story! I think it’s the first I’ve read by this author and I cannot wait to read more by her. The characters were fantastic to read about, Celia and Gabriel has so much chemistry it just oozed off the pages as I was reading – I am definitely a little bit in love with Gabriel! He was hot, possessive and dominating – book boyfriend material!! The authors attention to detail meant that scenery was easy to imagine. Overall it really was a brilliant read and one that I would highly recommend.

10 Minutes Before Sleeping10 Minutes Before Sleeping by Tanya R. Taylor
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I borrowed this book on kindle unlimited and right from the beginning found it to be a little odd for my liking. I found it quite jumpy, I was uncomfortable with the amount of prejudice portrayed, and I couldn’t understand why somebody would take in a baby left on the doorstep if they were just going to be abusive. I found it unrealistic that because the child was undocumented no neighbors stepped in to help and no one in the government ever figured it out or checked on her, even when she attended a school, which generally requires a birth certificate and many other things.

It is unsettling the relationship that takes place in this book with Eva and Pierre and the other things that transpire within that relationship which honestly is just another example of her being abused. There was nothing romantic about this relationship at all. Add in the fact that a supposed adult man still calls his mother mommy I didn’t find it very believable. There are several time jumps which makes it hard to connect to the story. At one point Eva is 15 1/2 and then the next chapter she is suddenly 18. That’s not even the biggest time jump.

The unbelievable story that she has with Max given his job title and all the other odd things I literally have no idea how this book has so many 4 and 5 stars. I always try to find some positive in a story or the authors writing style but this was impossible. I just found the entire story to unfortunately be bizarre and not what was advertised as emotional and powerful. I’m not giving up though, I am going to give another one of her books a try.

As you can see from other reviews some people really enjoyed this story so it very well could be just a personal experience. I’d recommend giving it a read and determining for yourself what you think.

Blood Sector (V-Clan #1)Blood Sector by Lexi C. Foss
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Quinnlyn tells Kieran that not only will she become his mate but that he can take over the Blood Sector. But on the day of their betrothal she runs away. Fast-forward… Quinn has been hiding from her “mate” for most of a century trying to solve her parents’ death and save other Omegas all while protecting a family secret.
But now he’s found her and he is “pissed” off and has no intentions of letting her run away again.
This is my first time reading one of Foss’ books, and I’m interested in diving into her other books.
This was a pretty good read. I like the dynamic between the two characters. Even though Kieran is described as a typical Alpha, you know dark and brooding…. he’s anything but. He’s really sweet if albeit not great with saying everything on his mind which becomes a running theme with the two of them. Both jump to conclusions and give each other a run around. I will say this is not a book for a feminist. It’s made very clear that women are inferior to the males. Quinn can be very annoying but I do Love Kieran and how he holds himself.
All in all its an interesting story to read and I would read another one of the Author’s books.

Oh and the plot twist is kinda like. Wtf.

The secrets the drama the lies and the painful way these two just won’t actually have a conversation will drive you crazy but the powerful heat between them is undeniable

This is a great entry to Alpha Omega metaverse and I highly recommend it. Humor internal monologs in this really help you get you get to know the characters.

4 stars only because the ending was fairly anti climactic. I was definitely looking for more.

Loved this book! If you like shifter books this is for you! It is set in the same universe as some of the author’s other books, but this was my first read of hers and I did not feel like I was missing anything, so definitely holds up that it can be read as a standalone. The dialogue in the book really makes you feel like you are in the story, it just sucks you right in. I also love the dual POV and it was executed brilliantly here. Overall, a great story and makes me want to read more of this universe!

Dragonslayer Dragon Heart (Dragon Heart Book 1) Audiobook by Isobelle Cate – Review by Emily H

Once upon a time Dragon’s were the guardian of a slayer’s soul.  That is until Slayers killed dragons.  Now Dragons are very careful about staying hidden, but Orelle Molyneux needs to have some freedom instead of staying hidden all the time.  One night though she ends up meeting Saxton Lance aka Apollo dragonslayer, the attraction is instant but Orelle is guarded and wants to keep Saxton at a distance.   Neither plan for the secrets each holds but what happens when it is revealed, will it be another slaying or could they change their fate?

 

This was an entertaining story.  I was pulled in right away and thought this was a unique take to a mythology shifter story.   Saxton radiated on each page, found his character really intriguing.   Great story, look forward to more in this series.
