Ashes (Modern-Day Fairy Tale Series Book 1)Ashes by MK Harkins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The synopsis attracted me to this book, but then I was absolutely hooked from the prologue! There was the perfect amount of magic and reality sprinkled into this story, and I absolutely loved the characters. Ashley has such spunk and personality! I wish I had been more like her when I was in high school.
This retelling of Cinderella was such an easy read and had enough twists and turns to keep me captivated with the story. I definitely recommend this book and am now going to read more from MK Harkins!

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

This is the 8th book in the Logan McKenna Mystery series. Everytime I pick up one of these books I know I’m going to be take on a gripping murder mystery and this was just as I expected. The characters growth throughout these books is amazing to see and its nice to see her finally happy with her long term love Ben. But it seems everywhere Logan goes there is always trouble.

We are back with Logan in her new home. Finally settled with her now husband Ben, Logan is enjoying her life and decides to embrace her love of Birds of Prey.
Now she has spare time she decides to volunteer at a wildlife centre where she can fully immerse herself and her love for these beautiful birds.
Sounds perfect right? That is until one of the vetanarians Logan works with turns up dead. Was it a natural death or something more sinister?
With Logan believing there was foul play she sets out to uncover the truth but little does she realise that by digging she has brought herself to the attention of the killer and now its a race against time for Logan to find the murderer before they get her.

This story is very gripping and will have you turning the pages and not being able to stop. I was fully immersed and captivated by this story that I couldn’t put it down.

This was my first book by Valerie Davisson, and now I am compelled to read all of the others in this series! I loved that you could pick this book up without reading the other books, but now I feel the need to go back and read them all anyways.
Valerie’s writing was so descriptive, which made me feel immersed in the story, the setting, the drama, the mystery… everything! This was a great murder mystery that kept me flying through the pages to uncover the truth. I definitely recommend it!

This is my first time reading Lexi C. Foss and I’m not disappointed at all. I think I just found a new author to binge read. She is a fantastic writer that pulls you into the world and characters she has created. I love that it’s not an alpha/ alpha werewolf couple lol we have a lot of those books out.
I cannot wait for Night Sector and I’m going to go read the other book in that universe so I can return while I wait for it.

This is the third book in the series I have read and just like the others, it was a great read!
Mia is looking to marry Nico for protection from her mafia family after finding out they are involved in a sex trafficking ring.
To their surprise, the marriage becomes more than a business move. I loved watching their emotions come to light!!
Would absolutely recommend this one!

Blood Sector: (V-Clan Book 1) by Lexi C. Foss
5 out of 5 Stars

To try and put to words how great this book was, is super difficult. Lexi Foss went above and beyond with this book. Between the world building, the romance, the pain, the healing, and of course, the happy ending.

I was a little nervous reading that this was part of a whole world that I haven’t read yet. But Lexi did not disappoint at all. She introduced the world, the burn out of the world, the hierarchy of everyone. I never felt lost for a single second.

I also love that each character isn’t 19 or 19 years old, they are a couple hundred years old or more. They have life experience and have seen terrible things, yet they survived.

I also love that there is not a “fated mates” story, this is a whole new type of werewolf/shifter storyline. Each character had to grow and learn to love, not just feel someone touch them and they were in love.

Between the humor, the romance, the storyline and the world building, I give this story a 5 out of 5 and I will definitely be reading the next V-Clan novel.

Wicked Treasure (The Charm Collector, #2)Wicked Treasure by Melissa Erin Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Charm Collector series is fast becoming one of my favorite urban fantasy book series. Wicked Treasure is book 2 and is just as much, if not more, exciting as Diabolical Sword (book 1). Harlow and Caspian are now on the run trying to locate magic treasure related to their friend, Cutlass. Kayda is pissed because Harlow ghosted her. Though, not much time for that because the Collective is creating chaos in Luma. There is drama, mystery and adventure no matter where you turn. I found myself on the edge of my seat, unable to stop reading because I had to keep going…one page more…what’s going to happen next..This story is so well-written. It engages you right from the start. The characters involved are so quirky and full of personality that you can’t help but love them all. I love following the conversations with the sword. The author builds a wonderful world with the story through her descriptions and art of story-telling. I will eagerly be awaiting book 3 of the series. Highly recommend this series.

“Have you ever considered going to one of those…clubs here in town?” These words start Callie on a steamy path with Noah, the man she has had a crush on for years. He just happens to be her brother’s best friend (forbidden property). The chemistry between them is off the charts. When Callie is attacked, Noah is called into duty to be her bodyguard. The story has romance, suspense, drama. It’s a light read that romantic suspense lovers will enjoy. The characters feel very relatable. The plot flowed very smooth and even had a twist or two. An entertaining read that makes a weekend. Book 2 of the series, this can be a stand alone or read with the series.

This is one of my favorite mystery series. Logan always brings a great story. I love the descriptions of everything in the story. It helps to build the picture and set the stage for the murder. The author did a wonderful job with researching owl information. The story was very engaging. What really makes it the best story are the twists and turns. A very well-written story that I recommend.

Normally I do not gravitate towards historical novels that are based on real accounts, but I am glad I did! This book was so wonderful and was not at all what I was expecting to read. This book was recounted through the eyes of a small girl who tells what it is like to have Nazi’s invade their home and village for many years. There was no emotion left unturned as I read this book and could not put it down. I have a new appreciation for the author who wrote this as she went to great lengths to make this book something that could convey the messages that she did and bring what happened many years ago to the forefront of people’s mind and had it where you could imagine what it was like being in their shoes.

WOW these books keep getting better and better! I have read the first books in the series, and I have to say that I think this book is my favorite thus far! Kris is a highly respected doctor who is going through a nasty divorce who has a reputation that precedes him. Alessia is a doctor who goes on a trip to meet and mingle with new coworkers before starting a job. When they met the sparks fly and they are happy and wondering how to keep seeing one another without letting anyone know. This book was super relatable and had many different twists and turns that made it relatable for people. I cannot wait to keep rereading these books over and over again!!

So before I start I just want to say 3 things

1) Pay heed to the content warning

2) Have nerves of steel . Expect the unexpected. Have a strong i constitution.

3 There’s a cliffie!

Ok so I was as keen as mustard to get into this book and at a stage I felt it was a little slow but man hang in there you will not be disappointed!

Bobbi has a lot going on in her life then you add a new job , new people , new department oh and a deranged serial killer … quite the combination

There’s a lot going on and I don’t say that in a bad way , it keeps you interested . I like Bobbi and Max as individuals and as a team . I felt both horror and sadness for victims , survivors and their families . There’s we’re also characters that bought out the ugly in me , like I would not spout on them if they were on fire , real nasty folk …

So before I devour the read I’m letting my nerves settle ❣️📕😱

Elizabeth is a newly divorced single mom of 2, just trying to make things work. Her ex husband is playing around with child support, her couch is threadbare, her home needs repairs, her son needs cleats for soccer and so on. After attending an at home party with the glamorous Louisa, she begins to daydream about buying into the company and becoming successful.

Louisa convinces Elizabeth to buy in after a visit to her beautiful home (with a security guard and a gate!) and Elizabeth puts the money on her already loaded credit card.

On her next visit, she finds Louisa has been murdered, the detective is the boy who broke her heart, and she can’t even get a refund!

Such a fun, easy read. Suspense, humor, sweet moments, human scenarios and mistakes, and characters that are loveable and that you love to hate.

First, let me say I like that it’s made in the mid-1990s which drew me in alone. Second of all, the action surrounding these partners trying to catch a killer makes your heart race even further but it’s also a connection between the characters as we witness their friendship intensify right before our eyes. The story, the action, the characters: All of this won’t let you put this one down. Get into it!

I love a good fated mate/Shifter story. Action, suspense, supernatural beings, and oh soo much spice!
I enjoyed this book and our MC. Kieran was easily pictured as the sexy Alpha Male King who was loyal and fierce. He was also strong and dominant, but a man very much in love with his chosen mate. She was truly his queen. and despite the chase she gave him he caught her in the end. Quinn had many secrets and while she feared the lack of approval with her people she was determined to win over the kingdoms trust as well as her mate. This was a great read, and I will be picking up other books from this author again!

Every good thing said about this book is true! The drama, angst, sexual tension, and danger were only a few of the highlights. All of the sexy Bratva bad boys left an impression and I officially have already backtracked to book 1 to experience where it all began.
Dom was sexy and together he and Leah were just pure fire. I loved how protective he was of Leah, but I also loved Leah’s fierce and strength. They are both terrified of relationships and where things can lead, but the overall need to be together causes them to both give in. This story was a great read!

“I’ve waited an eternity to worship you.” His reverent tone drew my gaze down to where he hovered just above my chest, his lips a mere inch from one of my nipples. “Now you’re going to learn what it means to be mine.”

 

Blood Sector is the first book in the phenomenal (new) V-Clan series by Lexi C. Foss. This is an epic paranormal romance- an Omegaverse fantasy set in a post-apocalyptic world, with shifters (wolves), immortals, supernaturals, action, adventure, mystery, bloody violence, suspense, agendas, danger, strong female lead, panty melting Alpha male, spicy and erotic scenes, incredible scene setting/world building, original and thrilling storyline, dark elements, fate, magic, and soooo much more. I have read most of Ms. Foss’s books now and can count on her to blow me away, each and every time! This one is one of her best yet! I can’t recommend this book highly enough…..
I know I have said it before, but as I was reading this book I was once again struck by how truly talented Ms. Foss is. She really has seemingly limitless creativity and imagination which makes her such a brilliant storyteller- these skills make her stand out from the crowd and elevate her stories to the next level.
So, what are you waiting for? Reading this review will take away valuable reading time!! Grab a copy and get lost in the pages just like I did. You really WON’T regret it. You’ll probably want to thank me later 😘
Another MUST-READ!
Can’t wait for the rest of the series!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Lexi C. Foss!!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Okay I loved it!!! Blood Sector has everything one could want in a book about shifters. In saying that there’s certain aspects of a book that intrigue me or make me turn away before cracking it open. Supernatural, if it be weres, vampires, faeries, shifters ect, I won’t hesitate to jump right in. Even if the book falls into another category/genre I don’t really care for. My point being this book fits that bill. Normally I would read the synopsis and so nope not for me. But this time knowing the shifter aspect, I just jumped in without reading it and I’m so glad I did!
Blood Sector Princess Quinnlynn sought out Alpha/Prince Kieran. She chose him as the shifter she wanted to mate with. Of course she had to convince him, her motives were pure. Never truly accepting that was the case, Kieran still agreed, and a month later she was gone. A century it took to track Quinn down and bring her back to the Blood Sector. Kieran had every intention of fulfilling the agreement they made a century prior.
With tons of obstacles in their way. Plus the fact that not only do Quinn and Kieran not trust one another, but the Blood Sector inhabitants are none to thrilled the princess who deserted them is back.
Quinn now is faced with proving her worth, trust and loyalty to her people and betrothed. She also needs to finish the initial task at hand, which was why she ran 100 years ago.
Which Prince in the trader in their midst?

A good collection of poems. It is an amalgamation of dreams, emotions and the past we have all more or less dealt with. There are few which I could easily relate to, few which I could not, which is understandable as every one’s experiences are different. The poems primarily deal with mental health issues,social isolation and self doubt. The best part is the rhyming was one of the key aspects of this poetry. I really liked that the poems rhymed, it was kind of very soothing to hear my own voice, so I read it aloud. Overall a profound experience.

It took me a little bit to get the feel for Stitch By Stitch but I’m glad I stuck with it. It’s mysterious but also filled with romance, friendships, and family. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I read it within hours needing to know where the twists and turns led me.

Elizabeth is a single mother of two that is struggling in every way possible. Her ex-husband refuses to be a mature adult and ends up playing games with not only financial support, but the well-being of his child. When Elizabeth hears about a clothing line opportunity, it seems all her prayers have been answered. She takes a huge leap of faith and lands in a massive amount of debt only to find her opportunity is more of a trap. With feelings revived from a past flame and desperation at every corner, how long can Elizabeth hold it all together?

I thoroughly enjoyed the realness of the main character, Elizabeth. It doesn’t paint her in a predictable everything-is-perfect light, so she felt like someone I knew. Even if you aren’t gripped by the beginning of this book, give it a chance. You’ll enjoy the back-and-forth between the characters and every dilemma they face.

Quinn is an unmated Omega princess who is feisty and strong as heck! She was on the run for quite sometime ….until she asks Prince Kieran to protect her and become her intended mate. Kieran wants to be sure if this is the true intent or does Quinn have a secret agenda.

This story is full of secrets and betrayal and hot chemistry between Quinn and Kieran!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mystery, Romance, Drama, Friendships, Murder – this book has it all! I thought I would be on the fence with this book and ended up absolutely loving it. I could not put it down and found one of my new favorite authors.

Bobbi is a strong-willed woman that came from a rich family, as everyone reminds her constantly. She is trying to make her own way in life after finding her passion for becoming a police officer. Her partner, Rose, is one tough lady who takes every task head on and accepts no excuses. Most of the guys in the precinct have eyes for Bobbi but only one catches her attention, Max. He feels he has finally found The One when they begin their relationship, but can he protect her from the Bathtub Murderer?

It took me a beat to warm up to this story in the beginning, but once it got going, I was hooked for good. I’m ready for the second book as soon as possible to find out what happens next. You won’t regret picking this up!

I have mixed feelings about this story. I was sucked in immediately with the tough female detective not taking crap from her newbie partner and her new partner also female wanting to prove herself and thrive at being a cop. Where it starts to get a little frustrating for me is with the different point of views and all of the relationships. Rose and Marco, Rose and Brian. Rose and Marco again. I don’t really feel like that added anything to the story. Then the situation with Bobbi and her ex while the actual case they are working on is playing out. There is no way after the events that took place she should have been allowed to go undercover to catch a guy that’s going around killing and raping women. I still can’t grasp my head around it. She’s still getting help for her personal situation which they all know about and still went with the plan? Other than those things I did enjoy the story. The villain is smart and clever. It frustrates me that he hasn’t been caught yet but that’s what kept me reading. That and the relationship between Bobbi and Max. I think Max is the most realistic character in the story. He’s not a Prince Charming. But he’s trustworthy, loyal, caring, and loving. He proves over and over again that he’s good for Bobbi. His reactions to different situations are realistic. Overall the book is a page turner. Once the story starts unfolding you won’t want to out the book down.
