My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My heart bled for the main character in this book as she tried to become resilient in the face of something she’d tried to overcome but when the story unravels, this story will have a tug that’s unmatchable. The chemistry between the two characters with their history (not just towards one another) but to be willing to give love a second chance. This is truly a feel-good book to curl up with any night of the week, it will have you laughing then crying and most of all, the characters will have you beaming from ear to ear.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great romantic suspense book that I really enjoyed. The twists and turns kept coming. When Brant loses his mother, the mystery note that was left behind already had me hooked on why she would say “find him and make it right”. Brant is determine to find out what this means and in this meets Aubrey. There is some trauma that Aubrey has to deal with and also with Brant having to deal with mysterious fires….but as Aubrey and Brant grow closer, there seems to be a stalker in the mix.

This story is full of mystery, edge of your seat moments along with Aubrey and Brant’s chemistry that really made for a great book! So glad I picked this book up to read. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly loved this second chance at love story and I enjoyed being back in the small town setting of Parker. Breckin Henderson and her football coach husband returned to her hometown of Parker, Oklahoma, only for him to leave her for the head cheerleader. Instead of running, Breckin remains in Parker and decides to build a new life for herself. Griff is a local who returned with a broken heart following the death of his girlfriend in a motorcycle accident. Griff now works as a bartender at the bar his grandfather owned and provides a listening ear for the locals. He also takes care of his elderly grandmother and takes her food shopping each week. Both Breckin and Griff have had their hearts broken once before and have insecurities, fears and trust issues but as their attraction grows and they get closer, they discover that they might be able to fall in love again.

Once again the setting is brought to life by the authors descriptive narrative and I felt fully immersed in small town life, and the gossip it brings. The characters are likeable and relatable and the chemistry between Breckin and Griff sizzled off the page. I liked catching up with characters from the previous book, although this can be read as a standalone story. This is an enjoyable and engaging read with plenty of drama, romance and some laugh out loud moments, mainly curtesy of Breckin’s grandmother. A wonderfully written and detailed story which kept me hooked, and happily turning the pages, I was hoping that Breckin and Griff would get their HEA. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.

Caught in Midnight Shadows (Caught series, #4)Caught in Midnight Shadows by Sharleen Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging romantic suspense novel with plenty of drama and intrigue which had me hooked from start to finish. Cattle rancher and father of three Brant Bellamy is determined to find a drifter who worked on the Bellamy Ranch, following his mother’s suspicious death. Someone also seems to to want Brant scared or dead. Meanwhile, bartender Aubrey Chartrand’s plans involve riding her new Harley-Davidson out of Angel Beach, Oregon, following years of taking care of her elderly aunt. Both Brant and Aubrey’s plans change when they meet each other and are instantly drawn to one another. When Aubrey also seems to be targeted by a stalker the couple work together to work out who it is and what they want, and whether the murderer has returned to finish what he started. This was a fast paced and exciting read with great characters who were likeable and relatable. The chemistry between Aubrey and Brant came across in the writing and the storyline had me gripped from page one. I read it as a standalone story, however some of the characters had obviously been introduced in previous books, and I am now keen to read the rest of the series.

This was a pretty damn cute story. It’s a really good read and despite the short length it still made me emotional! I really enjoyed Acheron’s (also I’m OBSESSED with this name- and Kharon) character and reading from his perspective. My favorite character might have been the battiest of them all.This was my first read from this author and I’m pumped to read more. (: I’m a sucker for shifter romance and this was definitely satisfying! I’m really hoping the author turns this into a series- I definitely think there’s support and interest in it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fate, Frankincense & Funerals is a great story, filled with so much imagery. It feels so much longer than just 57 pages, because it is so well written. The author has a way with words, allowing the readers to envision the story as it unfolds. The characters have names I cannot pronounce, and are creatures I have never heard of, but I am able to see them perfectly as I read the story. The rituals were unlike anything I’ve ever read about, but also made perfect sense… I longed for the book to be longer so I could see what would happen next… I hoped to get more information about Azrael and Carissa… but at the same time, it was wrapped up perfectly for Acheron and Errapel. I highly recommend this book, even if you don’t normally read paranormal books. But with the disclaimer, mature audiences only. There are some heated graphic scenes.

<span;>I read the book of this one first and I honestly loved it. So when I got the chance to listen listen the audio book I didn’t hesitate. Hearing the tale narrated just pulls you into the story so much more. All the characters within this whole series are easy to relate to but having them described and voiced out loud completely brought them to life. I was utterly drawn in to this book like it was my first experience with the story and I found any excuse I could to listen. This author was already one of my favourites.but listening to this book just cemented that evrtn further. I would highly recommend her, this book and anything else she has ever written!

The first book definitely made me want to read this book. This book was packed with a lot more law and politics than I really prefer to read. Even though I don’t like much law, the author really did a good job about keeping the story line moving along and keeping me interested. I really love how the story and characters pick up almost right where they left off in the first book. Im excited to see how the author continues to evolve the characters. I can’t wait for the next book.

This is the second book in the Crawford Mystery series and I would recommend that you read book one before devouring this one as that one sets up our characters and gives us a bit of the low down on what to expect as far as the mysteries and the way things will go. I love how this examines mysteries from the court stenographers point of view. It is kind of the unsung part of the court process that has always intrigued me a bit. I really enjoy reading about it and how this plays into things. I am a huge crime thriller person so these books are always a thrill for me to read and have lots of my favorite things in them. I would highly recommend them for the true crime junkie. I look forward to seeing what else is to come in the series.

I have read all of this author’s books. Her writing keeps getting better with each no el that she writes. She has a vivid imagination and her stories are unique. This is a short novella but I can see it becoming an interesting series. Most people when they hear “shifter romance “ they automatically think about wolves. I loved that this book’s main character was a vulture shifter. Vultures are natural scavengers and the fact that this character worked with the dead fit perfectly. This book is completely original and unique in its concept. I loved it!

5/5 Stars

Unlikely to Fit by Olivia Sherwood

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. The author sure had me hooked from the beginning. It was hard for me to put down once I started. This is the second book in the Parker Lake Novels.

Breckin has lost her husband to a newly graduated cheerleader. When she doesn’t leave town to get away from the gossip it may be a good thing. She meets Griff who is a gentleman and she can’t wait. If only she could get to work on time. The quote I chose for Breckin is: “Ugh! For the love of everything holy, please get the damn donkey out of the middle of the road!”

Griff comes home after the horrible loss of his girlfriend. He takes over taking care of his grandmother and running her around for errands. He also takes over his grandfather’s bar and when he meets Breckin he thinks he may have a chance. The quote I chose for Griff is: “It doesn’t really bother me. I met her dad at Meemaw’s party. I like him. Plus, I know Meemaw posted a picture of his butt on Instagram so I kind of have the upper hand on him.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Comedy lovers.

Caught in Midnight Shadows (the Caught Series #4) by Sharleen Scott

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. This is the fourth book in the Caught Series, but can be read as a standalone. Caught in Midnight Shadows is a great easy read.

Brant has lost his mother in a strange accident. He doesn’t think it was quite an accident as he thinks someone is after him. He sends his kids with their mom, but what he doesn’t plan is to fall for someone while they are away. The quote I chose for Brant is: “Like I said, it isn’t safe, and I don’t want to bring trouble to Eric and Joan. We don’t know who is behind all this stuff going on around here, and I can’t risk you and the boys. You’ll stay with your mother in Chicago until I get back.”

Aubrey has been taking care of her aunt and bartending. After that is said and done she wants to get out of town and not look back. When she meets Brant she thinks that he may be enough to convince her to stay. The quote I chose for Aubrey is: “It was a midlife crisis or something, and I can’t get rid of him now. Crap. He’s looking this way. Please play along.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 4th books in the series. It can be read as a stand alone but I would recommend reading them in order if you plan to read more than one as previous characters appear again and would give spoilers.
I do love that some of the characters from previous books make an appearance in this book as I love to see what they are getting up to at a later date.
In this book we get the story of cattle rancher Brant Bellamy, who has recently lost him mother and is trying to find information relating to her will. On his travels he meets Aubrey Chartrand, who is planning to leave town.
This is a great romantic suspense novel. There is danger. mystery and intrigue. Someone is trying to kill Brant and he wants to know who and why?
I was pulled into this story from the very beginning and the story moves at a fast pace, keeping the reader enthralled and on the edge of their seat wanting to know how it will all pan out.
I really enjoyed this book, and the previous 3 books in the series, and would definitely recommend this book to others.

Whatever Tomorrow Brings (Embrace Tomorrow #2)Whatever Tomorrow Brings by Amy Argent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wasn’t even halfway through the first book in this duet when I just had to buy this second book in the duet. There was no way I could wait to see how Will and Tori’s story concluded. I was totally invested in this couple and was praying that there was going to be a happy outcome for them.
Yet again this book needs to come with a ‘tissues required’ warning. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever cried so much at any book series as I have with this duet. Following Will’s story as he battles with cancer is totally heart breaking. My heart just went out to him, and Tori, so many times. I absolutely adored both of these characters and don’t know how I’m going to deal with the fact that their story is now over and I won’t get to read more about them. I do know that I will definitely read this duet over and over and probably cry just as much every time I read them.
I really loved getting to know the real Will as his story progressed. Seeing him blossom into the amazing man that was hiding under the cancer was just awesome.
Just like the first book, I thoroughly recommend this book and would give it more than 5 stars if I could.

Luke (Default Distraction #4)Luke by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Our mistakes and failures don’t define us; they don’t hold us back. It’s our own fears and regrets that do that.” This quote, along with a few others from this amazing love story really hit home. I have to say, this one just about sums up how I’ve been feeling as of late, and the way it’s integrated into Luke and Nikki’s story, gave me the chills. I adore the writing style, and between this and Cade that I read before, I’m hooked. As soon as I have the time, I will be reading the two other novels in this series, and will be recommending them to others, as well.

Between the devastating back story that comes with Luke, and has made him into the person he is, holding everyone (except his Double D brothers, and his daughter Brie) at arm’s length to protect himself, and the way Nikki melts through to him, and cares deeply for his daughter as if she were her own, was addictive. I refused to book this book down, every chance I had, it was being devoured, and I cannot wait to read more by this author. Wow!

Winter and Cade, I can’t describe the happiness I feel for their second chance romance. Ultimate relationship goals wrapped into a very sweet, emotional read, where the author has truly captivated (this) reader and had me rooting for them from the first few chapters. I absolutely love the way that we get to know the strong bonds that the band members share between them, and very much look forward to reading the previous installments in this series, as well as the next.

This band is not only that, but they are their chosen family. They are there for each other through thick and thin and know each other well enough to know when they are needed, and when they need to leave well enough alone. It’s truly admirable, and something that all, or at least most, yearn to have in their lives. This novel had me picturing the snowy hotel landscape, the love sizzling in the air, and had me crossing my fingers and toes for these two love birds that have been through their fair share of downs, and deserve the highest of highs, alone and together. Thrilled to have more to read by this author, highly recommend!

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites yet. I enjoy being pulled into her stories by her attention to details and writing style. Her characters are connectable and bring the story to life. This book is no different. The characters are creative and unique. They are strong and made the story entertaining for me. This is a faster paced story that is engaging to the end. This is a story about a woman who has a past and a present that is in jeopardy of destroying her. A story written with a lot of heart and you can feel that in each character. She is in search of love and hope but you never know where she might find it. This is a really great story that I loved. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Conveniently Yours (Titans Of Manhattan #1)Conveniently Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The story is the first in the series, Titans of Manhattan. The first titan we learn about is Caspian Archer, millionaire, running Archer Enterprises, a company started and owned by his uncle. Caspian is a workaholic, so his dying uncle has a plan to change that around. Caspian must get married and partake in that agreement for at least 1 year and a day in order to keep his position at Archer Enterprises. To say the least, he is not happy about this and feels his life is good the way it is. Little did he know, all that was about to change when he ran into an old friend from his childhood, a childhood he has tried to desperately forget. You watch this arrangement between two people bloom into a great friendship and love story, with some bumps along the way! I always love a book where you are getting each character’s thought process on the pages and not guessing what they are feeling. I really enjoyed the relationship between Caspian and Paisley. The relationship was honest, brutal at times, full of devotion, and had many sexy encounters. I look forward to the other titan’s story!

Mom, Is There a Santa Claus?Mom, Is There a Santa Claus? by Susan J. Berger
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a pretty good children’s holiday book. The book provides a great way of answering the question that all kids ask “Is there really a Santa?”. This is probably a question that all parents dread one day, feeling once they ask the magic of Christmas may be lost. However, the book answers the question in a magical way by explaining the spirit of Christmas and the idea of Santa, rather than just saying nope no Santa. In the book, the young child took that message and kept the dream alive for all the believers out there. While I did think there could have been more said or pondered about by the kid who acquired this new found information, I believed that it provided a great message of how to give kids the truth they are seeking, without causing “loss”.

This is not my first audible by this author but it is one of my favorites yet.  This is part of the Satan’s Devils MC series which just keeps getting better and better.   I enjoyed the narrator’s voice and how she made the story engaging with each word said.  They brought the story to life with different tones and were enjoyable to listen to.   This is a story about Drummer and Sam. He can have any girl he wants. He meets Sam and now he has a problem, he can’t have her because of who she is.   They are both instantly attracted to each other but their relationship is a no, no.  Will they go against rules and find their happy ever after?  This was such a great story to listen to on my way to work.  I highly recommend this audible and find out what happens between these two.

Broken Chains has just become one of my top favorite dark romance books.
This author does a great job making the story come to life. This mafia romance is not for anyone who is not used to Smutty violent books.
Liz Finley is such a relatable character that the author did amazing on. Usually I cring half way through a mafia story like this one but Karina Kantas does a great job not making the main character too whiny or conceited like you see most female characters in this type of genre.

This author was able to pack so much detail, emotions, and a unique world in only 57 pages! I’m still stunned on how amazing this book was. I could feel every emotion the author was portraying so easily.
When the two main characters, Acheron and Errapel, meet, the reader can actually feel their mate bond. The two connected so smoothly.
The only thing I would change is to have more pages to read! I loved this book. Definitely pick this book up!

I wasn’t a huge fan of this book.
I enjoyed it as a quick read but it wasn’t my favorite.
There is a character named Enzo that you will fall in love with.
I do enjoy multiple stories within the same scenario or world.
Can’t go wrong with a popular trope.
This story didn’t exactly pick up where it left off from book one, this focuses on new characters new points of view.
Luckily, you do not need to read book one if you haven’t already.
The romance and adventure pushes you through the read.
I am gonna give this four stars because it is good but I won’t reread.
The author does exactly what you would think by continuing the elite world of the mafia;
however, I feel this is more of a stand-alone then part of a series.

Unlikely to Fit (A Parker Lake Novel Book 2)Unlikely to Fit by Olivia Sherwood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Breckin never saw her life turning out this way. She surely didn’t expect her husband to leave her. She’s not in the market for a new relationship, especially after how hers ended. She just moved back to Parker so she’s not running but staying isn’t as easy as one would think. Her ex husband working for the same high school definitely brings it’s own challenges. Griff knows loss and grief. Having his own pain doesn’t stop him from listening to the troubles of those around him as he runs his grandfather’s bar. These two have been broken and neither one of them have the desire to meet anyone new. Can these two broken hearted mend with each other?

I really enjoyed this book. There are so many emotions. I hurt for Breckin when her husband left her. She didn’t see that coming. She developed well through the story. She was strong and depended on herself when it mattered. Griff knew what it was like to lose someone and eventually opened his mind to exploring something with Breckin. I loved these characters and couldn’t put the book down!

I can not explain how much I enjoy reading books by this author. Her smooth writing style is exactly what I enjoy about reading. The quick wit that is a part of the character dialogue, not to mention that they always just feel so real and like I’m sitting there a part of everything going on. I have read these out of order and am so glad I took the time to go back and start at the beginning. Breckin and Griff are two of my favorite characters from this series. I met them in Book 3 then again in book 1. As I said, I’ve read totally out of order, but it doesn’t matter, they are that good.

Griff’s meemaw and Wyatt’s niece Hattie totally stole the story on every page they showed up on. They made me smile and laugh out loud more than once.

The friendships and family aspect of this whole series has me completely hooked. I want to move there and insert myself into this group of people. The progression of Griff and Breck’s relationship was actually beautiful. Knowing each other as long as they had, it felt natural the way everything happened. The sadness they both endured separately yet worked so hard to heal together. There were times I just wanted to scream at certain characters in this story. So it is safe to say, I experienced just about every emotion possible while reading. I love that, and not wanting to put the book down and definitely not wanting it to end!

I can not recommend reading this whole series high enough. Definitely one of my favorite authors ever and I seriously can’t wait to read book 3 again after finishing this one.

I LOVED IT!!

This book was a page Turner and tough to put down! Once again, the author gives us a book that feels eerily authentic and simply normal as a reader of a mafia family book. This story of Sofia and Enzo is so intense and you are on the edge of your seat from the start learning about their love for each other. You’re in for a treat once the story takes a turn, as you learn of Sofia’s fate. Good read!
