WOW What a great read. All emotions hit! Katrina and Tj, so well written. I fell in love with them and this story. So beautiful done. If you love a good pull on the heart string romance, then this book is definitely for you (you may want tissues handy).

Bobbi is simultaneously trying to gain the respect of her partner, fight her attraction to detective Buckley and catch the perpetrator before he strikes again.

Dunn – Review by Charlisa Wahtomy-Alba
This was the first book I ever read by LM Preston, and it honestly sucked me in within the first couple of chapters. She does such an amazing job building the background of the story and getting the reader invested in the characters. EmVee and her family have recently moved from New York to a “middle of nowhere country town” of NewPort. Her parents are very secretive on why they suddenly moved. While EmVee is confused and slightly curious about the sudden move and the hush her parents have around it she becomes focused on school and “who” she wants to be.
In a new town EmVee finds herself wanting to reinvent herself in her new little town at her new school. She wants to be a “girly-girl” to the extent that she’s not in fights and being seen as another one of the guys. On the first day of school a whirlwind of things happens for EmVee. She meets two of the local football players, Kayson and Silas, both of whom seem to like her already. Though she is instantly drawn to Silas. In history class she meets Megan, a chatter mouth that loves to spread all the news she can. Meets Rachel, a fellow student that works at her parents’ gym, who becomes her first female best friend. Goes to the local club that Megan invited her too, dragging Rachel along so she’s not alone with the hard to be around Megan. While inside EmVee meets another football player, Grady, only to later discover his murder scene in the woods outside the club. After the current events and stories Megan has told her EmVee becomes more and more concerned about why her family suddenly moved when she finds contracts that tie her parents’ gym, the local club, Club Fixation, and a secret underground lab all seem to be related. Ten murdered athletes, ten missing cheerleaders, the secrets come out and shock you. After being attacked EmVee and her family are given a chance to escape NewPort. Until her family’s vehicle goes off the side of a bridge. She is saved and told her family is being helped but she has one goal. To find who is responsible and kill them.
The story, the ending, the details. Everything. If you love a mystery with twists and turns that you can’t put down, this introduction to the Vigilant series is highly recommended. I can’t wait to read Book One, Caged Fire, and see what happens next.

This is my first Colleen Hoover book (I know I know I know). 10% in an I am already bawling, tears streaming down my face like I am Kenna and can feel everything she is going through, the self torture, the pain, the struggle, the fear. This book already has me by the eyeballs and I can’t put it down.
I can not with Kenna’s mother. All of the history that Kenna describes breaks my heart. As a parent how could you ever be like that with your child? A part of you?
Like Kenna and Ledger in this story I am so torn. I can feel every single thing, I found myself crying and not realizing I was crying. I found myself holding my breath, waiting on pins and needles, I found myself shaking my head and my heart filling with so much pain, empathy, and frustration for what they must be going through. Each of them.
This book deals with love, heartache, betrayal, grief in more ways than one, regret, and so much more. I could not put it down and by the end it left me way beyond spent. I can not wait to devour all of Colleen Hoover’s Books. If you love a good tear jerker book, with heartache and romance then grab this asap.

I LOVE historical fiction and actively seek to read all the stories I can about WWII. Most deal directly with Germany and viewpoints from those imprisoned in concentration camps. Every once in a while, you find one about another occupied country, written about someone who lived through it. These books are transfixing, heartbreaking, and full of hope all at the same time. The thing is, many countries (Italy and France particularly) were victims of destroyed documents. Those stories that can be corroborated after much deep digging – often are hard to tell and we are very quickly losing the remaining people who can tell the tale. So, when something like this comes along it is brilliant and brave and wrecking, and touching.
The Letter Carrier is nothing short of all of this. It takes place in occupied France during the war and is a true testament to the depravity wrought by the Third Reich and living conditions of those involved. The author does a tremendous job of transporting you to Braquis – bringing sharp focus to the unthinkable things no one should have to live through, and capturing part of your heart in return. I wept for Michelle and her family more than once, but through faith and hope, they lived to tell the tale. Hopefully this serves as a reminder how fragile life is, and brings light to dark times lest we fail to learn from and tragically repeat these lessons.
L.C. Lewis is a poignant writer with a knack for carrying the emotions through the page. I felt what the characters were feeling. I got a sense of an oft skipped over perspective of the war and how truly young kids had to grow up faster than they should have. I am forever grateful to L.C. for capturing the spirit of Michelle, and being able to tell her tale. Brava!

This was a well written first book and a new author to me. The synopsis is what initially got my attention and I was intrigued enough to want to read this story. It started off with action and I wondered what kind of demon hunter I was reading about. Of course being a fan of the long running TV show Supernatrual I had a few ideas in mind about how she would vanquish these beings, but it was nothing like that. The simple yet effective method the author put forth made me do a double take, haha. Normally Rovens’s duty is to kill a demon, but when she is sent to find out why a Marked was killed and who did it she accidentally brings the body back to life with a new soul. She doesn’t know exactly how it happened as she doesn’t quite know the full extent of her powers or why they only work sometimes. Instead of hunting demons and offing them she is now tasked with keeping one alive. Will she be able to gain the trust of her sworn enemy? Or will the enemy turn out to be her downfall?

I cannot say enough good things about this author or this book in particular!
I have not read this author before now and now I am hooked! I cannot get enough! I also cannot wait for the next book in this series.
The intensity of this book just jumps off the pages! The emotions of each character is so vividly felt and the story line has a hook from start to finish! There are villains, crime and mystery… just what every good story needs!

This book was AWESOME! Going back and forth between crazy, hilarious, and dark humor kept me turning the page until wee hours in the morning. I laughed out loud in several parts of this book and love the way the vivid details captured my attention. There’s spooky, whacky, and sci-fi suspense with characters that had me shaking my head at times. Even though the characters are messed up themselves, I couldn’t help but laugh at the misfortunes each one went through. This is unique writing that I can’t wait to read more of! It reminds me of Stephen King mixed with Kurt Vonnegut and Thomas Pynchon. An amazing book and I can’t wait to read more from Robert Rife!

Ritual Obsession by R.L Dunn is the first in the series and so very well thought out! I really enjoyed this book and all that the author spun into the tale! Mystery, Thriller, Suspense, and Romance all rolled into one where tensions are high while a city is in crisis. I could not put this book down! It was perfect to curl up with and get lost in! Well thought out, and well executed, where I was on the edge of my seat more than once!

Rovena is a demon hunter, she’s strong and tough and just completely awesome. With her special skills, she’s the best there is at what she does. But, instead of killing demons can she keep one alive. Excellent read! I can’t wait for the rest of the series.

3.9/5 Stars This was my first book by this author and it’s set in Australian. There are a few cultural differences between the book setting and my home country, but overall they aren’t large enough to be confusing. I felt the book jumped in a serious situation quickly and felt almost overwhelmed at the beginning. I found myself having to reread to make sure I understood the situation correctly. I think if the book was a little more of a slow burn, I would have enjoyed it more. The seriousness of the custody battle seemed rushed and left me with questions at times.

This might be one of my new favorite authors. Crime novels are some of my favorite genres and this book was in my top 3 of favorite crime books. The character development and growth was amazing. You could feel everything Rose, Bobbi, and Max felt. They were so well written. The storyline was simply put … intense. You instantly hate Andrew as he seeks out Bobbi, he is the first villain. The bathtub murderer is then revealed and you encounter villain number two. The author successfully blended both antagonists storylines the complete our protagonists. The ending was equally great and frustrating. I will be counting down the days until the next book is released.

The Vilification of Aqua Marine: Superhero Slice of Life Misadventure is the first book in the Working Masks series. I have enjoyed other books by this author before and was glad to see she had a new series. The story is a delightful look at an upcoming superhero or supervillain. Aqua Marine is challenged in deciding what route she will take in life. I enjoyed her character, interactions with her parents, and potential archnemesis, The Overlord of the Dance. The story is original and interesting. This is a quick read, and I didn’t want to put it down. I enjoyed the characters and look forward to how they progress in this series. I think this can be enjoyed by teens and older. I am looking forward to grabbing the next book in the series.

This book has an interesting premise of hunters and demons. Some hunters have special abilities and Rovena is one of those hunters. She has the ability to touch someone and see their memories. This comes in handy and is used by the members of the monastery to gain information on the death of humans or demons. Rovena is on a case to determine why an innocent human was targeted by demons. Lakyn has his own issues. He ends up on the surface in possession of the body Rovena is cased with. Here upon starts the tale Rovena and Lakyn. Enemies with no trust in each other.

This book was a hard one to put down. I was so sucked into the story that I managed to finish it within a day of reading it. Very well written and has amazing suspense throughout the entire book.
This book follows the stories of the four main characters alternating between all of their point-of-views. You start out by meeting Rosalie and learning about her condition and how she currently feels about her situation. Then you meet Cate the caregiver that was a nurse overseas for the military. Next comes Ana the intelligent therapist. Finally, Vincent is Rosalie’s husband and Cate’s boss.
This book has a lot of twists and unexpected events that occur keeping you on your toes and not wanting to put the book down. In this book, you get to experience a story unlike a lot of others out there right now. The book has a very unexpected ending and makes you want to reread the book to see if you can find something you missed that led to the ending. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes suspense and wants a great book to binge read.

I was pleasantly surprised with Something About Aimee. S. E. Smith did an amazing job of drawing the reader in from the first chapter and never letting go! I found myself on the edge of my seat, invested in the romance between Aimee and Qadir. The descriptions of the different settings makes the reader feel like you are on the streets with Aimee or in the desert with Qadir. S. E. Smith uses great character building and an opposites attract romance, which I absolutely loved. There are so many twists and turns in the story, but somehow, it all meshes well. Something About Aimee is like a modern-day Cinderella mixed with a crime drama, complete with quick love and sneaky international criminals! I cannot wait to read more books by S. E. Smith.

I found this to have a really similar vibe to shows like Lucifer and Warrior Nun on Netflix. There aren’t a lot of written stories to include this genre, to the level of detail that Kristy gives us, which is just #LOVE. “Tale of a Body Thief” includes demon hunters, demons (obviously), monks, nuns, a monastery, a heap of investigation intrigue, and so much more you will just have to read to find out.
Rovena is the badass, gothic demon slayer we all wish we could be. She’s already a pretty competent individual in her trade, equipped with some unique abilities to assist her mission. Not only is she capable, witty, and a total force to be reckoned with, the author brings her to life as a real down to earth person.
Along side her trying to save humanity, are her fellow hunters. But can she trust them totally? In the midst of some pretty epic (and graphic) battle scenes, Rovena is forced to use quick and critical thinking. There is so much diversity across the board for all characters. We want good vs. evil to be drawn with a clear black and white line, but that’s not how life works for us, or for Rovena.
We as the readers are guaranteed a journey with this heroine to some pretty unexpected outcomes, a lesson in self discovery, and you might just find yourself questioning your own reality. I just love that Kristy leaves room in the world development to lure you into the next book. You really have to think for yourself, and ask yourself “is anyone safe?”. Easy to read and understand the picture that Kristy paints for the reader.

Aqua Marines mother was a supervillian while her father was a superhero. She wants so very badly to follow in her father’s footsteps. Her powers are quite weak compared to the other superheroes so she tries harder than anyone else to make a name for herself. Aqua can only manipulate a cup of water at a time. One evening when she is taking on a villain called The Overlord of the Dance, she accidentally grabs the water from his heart, killing him in the process. This sends Aqua into an existential crisis and gets her to rethink her future as a hero.
Aqua finds out that the Overlord of the Dance actually didn’t die and is now out for revenge. Calling her out of her depression, she finds reason to continue her journey of becoming the superhero she always wanted to become with the help of her new nemesis.
This book was exciting enough to maintain the interest of multiple audiences. It is geared for a younger audience but I enjoyed it quite immensely. There was action, emotion, heroes, villains, a bit of politics regarding both things and even a little splash of romance. I highly recommend this book if you are looking for a fun read.

Or Not. by Robert Rife – Review by Mikaela Insinger
I was drawn to this novel originally because I looked forward to a book with a female detective as a main character. So many novels have your typical, tortured male detective and I was looking forward to a different approach to your average crime thriller. I really enjoyed the book as early as the first few pages. The author uses a lot of clever metaphors and the style of writing seemed unique to me. Maybe just because I read so many of the same authors, it was a treat to read something from someone new to me. The author has a way of painting a vivid picture- this makes the trigger warning at the bottom of the synopsis all that more important. While there is some graphic subject matter, the author really does navigate the topics in a well written, entertaining matter that reads as smoothly as watching a crime movie on the big screen. The book quite literally left me wanting more and I look forward to book number two.

Dunn – Review by Felicia Bates
I don’t think my heart can take it…I thought Part 1 was a gut punch…this book…Part 2…..my emotions are running full steam…
Part 2 picks up after Part 1…I highly recommend reading this series in order to get to know that back story lines and characters. Chains is rescued after being held captive, but the Grimm Wolves can only do so much. Chains is tormented by his past heavily. In order to get back to be with his two loves, Winnie and Jackson, Chains must find out who is responsible for the captivity.
I love Winnie, Jackson and Nicholas (Chains) together as a triad. You truly feel the love between the three..but also the demons that haunt Chains..my heart…. The torture, intense and heartbreaking moments that Chains endured I could only possibly imagine.

The Vilification of Aqua Marine (Working Masks #1) by Megan Mackie
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. The Vilification of Aqua Marine is a fantastic read. I had a fun time reading this. If you’re a young adult this will be perfect for you. This is also the first book in the Working Masks Series.
Rhiannon, aka Aqua Marine, wants nothing but to follow in her dad’s footsteps. She wants to be a superhero. She tries and ends up hurting a man. Then she gets a chance at the hero thing only to find that her mother has set it all up. The quote I chose for Rhiannon is: “I didn’t ask you to do this! I mean, come on, this is absurd. You’re committing a public disturbance at best right now.”
Mack, Aka Overlord of Dance, is supposed to be dead. Now he’s not and now he’s trying to prove that he can be a villain. Aqua Marine is his enemy or at least she’s supposed to be. Then changes and now he’s changing his tune. The quote I chose for Mack is: “That is a horrible answer. You can’t leave it like that.”

I have read many books by this author and have really enjoyed each and every one. Ritual Obsession is a romantic suspense tale. This great story is enthralling and engaging and it certainly had me engrossed. The danger, suspense and mystery, lies and deceit are raw and innocent lives are being taken because of one evil monster. I spent a lot of time with my heart in my throat and my jaw clenching whilst reading this book. It is a thrilling and enticing read that is nonstop action from the start to finish. R.L. did a masterful job of weaving it all together to come out with a story that will have your heart pounding and your emotions on high alert.
Can Max prevent his partner from becoming the next victim of the Bathtub Murderer?

There are people out there who will do anything to make a quick buck and there are those out there who fall prey to these people, but when one shifty couple plunder a UFO and try to sell the pilfered items, they are found out and get into more trouble than they expected and now they have to work out how to escape from the predicament they find themselves in.
It all starts with a filthy man, moves to a drunken man in a loveless marriage working in a shop with questionable morals and motives, through to someone who charms their way into selling wares of questionable value to those who are easy to fleece. From here, an old house is discovered which is ripe for rumours and riches, but is it really worth the hassle associated with gaining access to the contents within?
With aliens, monsters, madness and love all taking turns to twist and manoeuvre pieces into place, so that devious experiments can be carried out, but is there any escape from probably pain and possible death, when you are a terrified female, paired with a blundering fool? This is a story told through the eyes of many different people, some are loveable and some are not, but the overarching theme of this comedic horror will keep you keep you reading and likely giggling until the end.
