Another great book by C.R. Robertson. Another great read of a story of two people that were forbidden to be together and the way that they fight to be together. Will all the twists and turns you never know what the next page will have, it’s a real page turner. It’s a very fast-paced, complex, action packed, paranormal romance, that will have you wanting more. This incredible story with its vampires, Lycans, hell spawn, witches, all in one story is incredible how she weaves it all together for this incredible story. The battle scene and the sizzling encounters are so amazing it kept me wanting more. This Is a must read and can’t wait for the next one.

Cursed Sight by AJ Renee is the second book in the Broderick Coven book series. This can be read as a standalone and completely enjoyed. The story focuses on Ethan who finds out he comes from a long line of powerful witches. Will he come into his power? As he turns to the local coven leader Sabrina Bishop for assistance he finds more about his powers and develops feelings for her. I enjoyed the story and was drawn into it quickly. I liked the paranormal and mix of romance to the story. This was a nice story to dive into and am glad it is part of a series. I look forward to reading more of the books in the series soon.

Oh my goodness!!! Such a great book. I am very particular about the YA books I read and I just absolutely loved this book. It reeled me in and kept me hooked until the very last page. I loved the premise of Alex and the nightmares. It is written so well that when you read about Alex and her need for a family you feel it to. The way she wants to bond with her grandmother you want it to. I just LOVED this book and I definitely plan on reading the whole series.

Bared was a good 4 star read for me. Athena is such a strong character but sometimes she annoyed me. No matter what happened she kept trying to keep Tru at arms length. No Matter how hard he tried and he did try hard, she had steel walls guarding her heart. Tru lets her into his personal life in hopes that Athena will open up and really try to give this a shot. Will Athena ever let her walls down and let Tru in ? I thought this boom was well written and I loved the characters. I just felt like something was missing. I don’t know what but I just feel like I was looking for something else to happen. I’m looking forward to more in this series in the future.

(A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Michelle Mulvey
There was a time where I absolutely loved books with crime, detectives and a thrilling plot. I have always been a fan of those movies too but there is something about using your own imagery. Somewhere between work and kids I forgot how much I love those types of storylines. I am really happy I stumbled across Hanging Softly in the Night. This is a novel that has a little bit of everything all wrapped into one. Characters you love, plot twists and even sensitive subjects. I found myself wrapped into the storyline from page one. It’s been a while since I have read a full length novel and I was impressed by how it not only kept my attention but kept me from wanting to put it down. Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra is a new author to me but left a lasting impression. There are a lot of moving pieces and key characters to this storyline but never once did it feel overdone or too dragged out. I look forward to reading more from this author and highly recommend this 5 star read.

This is a full length MC novel. This is Sophie and Wraith’s story. A story of differences vs romance. An MC’S VP taking an old lady. This is a must read. I also suggest you read all of her books in this series.
Sophie is recovering from a horrible accident that left her in a wheelchair. She has lost the use of her leg and the other one is no longer there. Between the pain and self loathing she has all but given up. All she had done was help a friend leave an abusive boyfriend. Now her door is smashed open and the threat has started all over again. But Wait…. The door was kicked in by someone sent to help her escape. Strangers who become friends, family and a strong desire to live. MC to the rescue!
Manda Mellett has once again taken me by surprise. I love each of her men in the Satan’s Devils. But this one has taken over my heart. I have grown very fond of this MC series. Sophie is so strong and the men of Satan’s Devils are there to support her, back her up and keep her safe. As well as give her what she needs to take back her life. This story will take you on a rollercoaster ride you won’t soon forget. Fast pace and the many emotions will keep you reading. Well Done Manda Mellett! Well Done!!!

Journeys Through SpaceTime by James Talisman is the first installment in James’s Journeys Through series.
As a reader who does not often read sci-fi, I, actually, really enjoyed this book. Although there are quite a few characters and different points of view to follow at the beginning and it is a bit confusing, I enjoyed the character building and how it kept my attention and, in the end, all came together. The story had a very interesting plot and I enjoyed how the author brought all the characters together.
Overall I really enjoyed this book and would highly recommend it. I cannot wait to read the second installment Journeys Through TimeSpace.

Lea Nolan is an author I just heard about. I read the synopsis of Hols me forever and it pulled me in. When I started the book I couldn’t put it down. I love romance novels and this one didn’t disappoint me. I know this is the third book in the series but it’s so good I plan to read the first two. Lark and Hunter belong together and I love that they got their second to first their past. I can not wait to read more books by Lea Nolan. Definitely worth reading!

HOLD ME FOREVER (HERON HARBOR Book 3) by LEA NOLAN is just as fantastic as the first two in this series. Having read the previous two installments I had high expectations for this book and Ms. Nolan did not disappoint, I was so enthralled in book three that I quickly devoured it in one sitting without meaning to. This romance has everything that a reader can hope for including a small town, second chances, great main characters, and plenty of romance, drama and more. Personally I’m hoping this isn’t the last we see of Haron Harbor, because this reader for one definitely wants more.

One can read “Hold me Forever” as a stand-alone although it’s a part of the Heron Harbor Series. This is my first book by Lea Nolan and she didn’t disappoint. The characters are well written leaving you a desire to learn more about them and their stories. Also, who doesn’t love a second chance romance. Lark and Hunter’s romance will draw you in and have you start cheering them in no time. Find some time to sit down and enjoy this book, you won’t regret it.

I was very excited to read this book. I enjoyed book 1.
The storyline was good. I feel like there were some things that could’ve been written differently but only to better an already thought out plot. Overall I liked how the different groups didn’t necessarily mix or hate one another like they normally do in paranormal books. I liked that the female lead Delilah was strong and resilient. Christian the male lead’s character had some room for improvement but I still really enjoyed how his personality and attitude played in the story.

Jake the Growling Dog Shares His Trail (Jake the Growling Dog Book 3) by Samantha Shannon is just as wonderful as the first two installments in this series. Ms. Shannon gives us adorable fluffy characters that you can’t help but fall in love with alone with a fun and entertaining story for all ages. The animal illustrations are simply adorable and will leave you wishing you could just pet every character and give them lots of treats and love, while the scenery illustrations are beautiful and breathtaking. Not only are these books super adorable and enjoyable but my five year old daughter loves them and can’t wait for the next Jake story.

This is a great, sweet, and fun book to read with underlying lessons. This demonstrates how we can all be different and still work all together. Jake finds a different set of paw prints on his trail which makes him stressed and uneasy. Join Jake and his friends while they try to uncover the mystery. The illustrations were amazing and fun to follow along with the story. I was so happy to read this first book from the author, that I did a little research. An interesting fact that I found is that the Jake books are based off a real dog! I would highly recommend this for growing children!

Tru is a professional pool player and travels. He walks into Athena’s bar not expecting to meet the fiesty owner. There is definitely chemistry between the two but Athena doesn’t want love!!

This is the first book by N.D. Jackson that I have read. I am a HUGE fan of romance novels of every variety. There were some things that I could do without but the story of Athena and her past is so well written and when she meets TRU, she wants him and something starts to shift inside her. The characters are really great and Athena and Tru together are perfect. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Fist, this is an amazing series of books! I love Jake the Growling Dog!! This one in particular, Jake the Growling Dog Shares His Trail really resonated with me. If I had, had something like this when I was young I would not have felt so alone with all my fears. I love the illustrations, I love that Jake never goes through something alone. I especially loved that this one had visible disability representation as well! Just so many good things, I can’t praise enough. Also that at the end it gives helpful tips on how to work through fears and does not belittle the fact that everyone has them. Loved it, would recommend to anyone! Well done Samantha Shannon with the story and Lei Yang on Illustrations.

This is a great follow-up to Journeys through SpaceTime. Talisman’s level of detail, and ability to make connections in these works is incredible. It must have taken him so long to map this work out! Sci-Fi lovers will revel in the twists and turns this book takes, and the painstakingly drawn characters we get to know. With such a large cast of characters, I don’t know how he manages to create such distinct voices.
I think I enjoyed this 2nd book even more than Book 1. It took me awhile to get my head around the multitude of characters, themes, and overlaps in the first one. This time ’round, I had an *idea* what to expect, and I could sit back and enjoy it more. Well done!

Dangerous Curves Boxed Set #1 (Dangerous Curves Books 1-3) by K.L. Montgomery
4 out of 5 stars
This box set begins with Betrayal at the Beach. A delightful leap into the world of Sunshine Baker and her small town of Bryce Beach. Sunshine is the YA Librarian at the town library. She has planned a gala fundraiser to secure funds that had been reduced from the town budget. During the gala, the funds and a priceless town relic are stolen. Sunshine doesn’t feel that the local police are doing a good job of finding the guilty party. Sunshine and her merry band of librarians start their own investigation. Could Sunshine find the culprit before the relic disappeared and the money vanished for good?
The set continues with Mystery at the Marina. Sunshine and her gang of resourceful librarians are at it again when wildlife starts washing up on the shores dead. Sunshine butts heads with the Chief of Police while trying to figure out what was going on in her town’s marina. Sunshine thinks she can assist with the investigation, just like she did before. This investigation leads Sunshine and her crew into hot water. Will Sunshine be able to figure this out before she gets boiled?
The set wraps up with Shooting at the Shore. Sunshine gets involved in the murder investigation of a dear friend and town leader, Willa Bryce Monroe. Sunshine uncovers the family secrets that ultimately led to Willa’s death. Sunshine also makes a startling revelation regarding the newest teen patron and artist helping out in the library. Will the town ever be the same when the secrets come to light?
K.L. Montgomery gives us life in a small coastal town. I want to be friends with Sunshine and help her solve mysteries. The characters, big and small, human and animal, make the town more entertaining. The relationships between characters are enjoyable and real, from the friendships to siblings. Sunshine stands out but without her friends and teen assistants, she couldn’t solve the mysteries or remain employed!! I love the secret admirer that is carried throughout the novels. I think I know who it is, but only time will tell! Can’t wait for the next chapter in this series.
Journeys Through Time Space (Journeys Through Book 2) by James Talisman 4 Stars
This book picked up where the first ended. The special trio has to save the world but before they can do that, there is still training to be done. Travelling to Nepal, they trek on foot to a hidden place deep in a valley. It is a place of higher learning and some may call magic. Continuing their education in the All That Is, they learn that they can do incredible things. To gather the pieces they need to save the world, they must travel through time. Their adventures are fraught with danger and perilous tasks. With evil lurking on the horizon, can Michael, Julie and Dan accomplish their goals to save all of mankind?
I enjoyed this book better than the first. There were less characters therefore the author was able to concentrate more on the story. The story is interesting and unique. Fans of sci/fi and Dr. Who will love this book. I do recommend that you read the first part to fully comprehend this book.

I really like the Jake the Growling Dog series. Jake smells something new on his trail, and it scares him. His friends come over and they check it out together. What do they find? Just another dog, but he is different. We are all different in our own ways, but when there are disabilities involved, kids don’t always want to talk to them or make friends. This was a great reminder that we all want friends. The activities in the back are amazing also! They totally give opportunities to talk to your kid(s) about differences, how to be a good friend, and how to just be a good person.

Stripped is the first book in the Stripped series by Stacy Deanne. This is my first book by this author and it will not be my last. The story has a suspenseful romantic feel to it. The characters are fully developed and complicated. This story is about Dee and Connie, two detectives in Baltimore who were put on a case of a strangled woman. The suspect in the murder is Dee’s ex, Grayson. As Dee was investigating the murder she was introduced to Jonathan. This is where the story gets interesting. Will Dee find the murderer? Will Dee start a relationship with Jonathan? I highly recommend reading this book to find the answers to these questions and more.

I love these characters and the whole Broderick family. Author AJ Renee keeps me entertained with sassy and sweet characters and with plots that roll smoothly.
Vanessa Raine is a single woman that believes she is seeing things. She knows she isn’t crazy but she just can’t believe the things she sees. And the fact that no one else is seeing these things makes her wonder what is really going on. Carter Broderick is a witch learning his untapped powers. And his day job of being a doctor allows him to practice his healing touch. However, he doesn’t know what he’s missing until he meets Vanessa. The way these two grow together is sweet, sexy and oh so good.
These books do need to be read in order and Cursed Touch is book 4. I definitely recommend this series. Bonus: I love the blurb for the next book, waiting patiently!

A kiss to seal a deal to save your brother’s life. Seems simple enough. Until you end up in the Underworld with Grey, the Don of the Underworld who leaves you alone in Elysium. Vanessa isn’t sure what to do next. Her man Raef is alive and she’s well…dead. This story is a gripping read with amusing characters and a unique storyline that grabs you and holds tight until the end. I read this book cover to cover in one day! Would definitely recommend! Don’t forget to check out the other books in the series!

Green Street is where they came from. Charlie, Gwyn, Indigo and Athena. This is Athena’s story. Shoved out into the world, she made the most of it. She is a millionaire, has clubs all over; but she decides to do something different and open a pool hall. Sponsoring a pool tournament is where she meets him, Tru. Their chemistry is hot from the first moment. Athena wants him, but just for the sex in the short term. Can Tru capture her heart and make her want to keep him? Athena is great, strong, and a very independent woman. I love stories with a strong heroine. They make me feel empowered. That I can do and conquer anything.

(A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Angela Packard
Ripper Bandura is definitely a sexy bad guy in this romantic suspense novel. For all his bravado and strength, he has surprisingly little experience in a relationship, so when he falls for Nurse Erin, it catches them both off-guard. He’s also a complex character that is more than just a typical ‘bad boy’. Unfortunately, his childhood was abusive and sent him down a path of crime from an early age. The relationship between Ripper and Erin seems like an unlikely match for many reasons, but they find themselves compelled to each other regardless. The backstory of Erin’s father gives the plot lots of interest, and it speeds up quickly with the family business and the reemergence of Erin’s first husband. Lots of drama to keep up interest, and the ground is already laid for some explosive happenings in book 2!

This book picks up right where we left off in part 1 and i thoroughly enjoyed this book. I dont like saying I liked this “better” its just this has the conclusion we were waiting for so believe it just makes us feel complete as these 2 parts go hand in hand, you need part 1 to have part 2. Loved it! Wont be giving details, as these books are best enjoyed through your own eyes.

Effacement by Hieronymus Hawkes – Review by Allyson Ware
Talk about a realistic novel. Hieronymus Hawkes leads you into the future of technology. It may be fiction, but the conspiracy theories that could be discussed based off of this book are infinite. The way technology is being ingrained into our daily lives forces us to rely on it , which is exactly what Cole experiences when he is attacked and his lifelog is destroyed.
Effacement, according to the government is punishable by law. “Not having a lifelog,” is how effacement is defined. So what is a lifelog? A lifelog is a chip that is inserted into the back of your head, and keeps track of your everyday life. It also keeps you connected to everything from the internet to your insurance. Nothing can be done in your daily life without your lifelog, which I suppose is why law writers decided to enforce punishment.
When Cole is attacked, his life is turned upside down. Not only is he arrested for being attacked and his lifelog being destroyed, but his fiancé assists in the attack. Forced to start his life over, Cole finds help in the most unlikely of places, and learns that he cannot trust those that he originally would have put his life on the line for.
Cole goes from a monotonous life to one filled with adventure and suspense. From worrying about when he will marry the woman he has spent five years engaged to, to worrying about how long he may or may not spend in jail/prison. The author has you on the edge of each page, waiting to find out what happens next to Cole. A novel I would recommend to any science fiction fan.

This is a fantastic children’s book. The illustrations were creative and beautiful. I believe you are never to young to enjoy a great children’s book. This story made me smile from ear to ear from beginning to end. Jake finds himself unsure when he sees different paw prints on his favorite walking trail. What kind of animal would it be? As Jake’s friends of Luna, Bodhi and Neet try and help Jake to not be scared and help him find who these paw prints belong to. The group meets Tuck and the story unfolds from there. I highly recommend this children’s story that is full of fun, mystery and compassion.

This novel is a detective thriller where Detective Larson is trying to solve a string of suicides. However, Larson’s intuition is normally never wrong, and he feels that there is something strange and chaotic about the suicides. This book, while a thriller with some sensitive scenarios, is written in such a way that not only are you saying “OMG” but also falling in love with characters, feeling for the friends and family, as well as, feeling the confidence that these crimes will be solved. As someone who loves to solve puzzles, this was a great read. I was constantly trying to figure out where the evidence was going and who could be behind all of the craziness. The craziness was wrapped around a budding love story that presents itself from a turbulent past. I am really looking forward to the next book in the series that will probably focus on these new beginnings that may be soiled from ghosts past.

I had a hard time reading this story because of the jump between characters, however this is just a personal preference. The details that the author included with each character’s story was amazing, and therefore I still gave this book 5 stars. I really loved the characters Queen Neferities and Thoran. However, I was able to predict how things were going to turn out with them and her brother. I can’t wait to read the 2nd story, because I am also eager to see what happens with Matt, Julia, and Dan’s story.
