Another excellent book in this series. I truly have enjoyed the author’s attention to detail in each installment. And boy was I ever rooting for the main characters in this book! From beginning to end, filled with the paranormal characters I enjoy and a great quick storyline. Paranormal lovers will enjoy this book and series.

I really loved Hold Me Forever. Lark’s story was so beautiful and Lea Nolan’s characters are bright and funny. This is the third book in the Heron Harbor series and I want to go back to the beginning and read them all. This is such an easy to read, beach and summer fun book. I’m looking forward to more from this author!!

Houses of Deception (The Madeline Dawkins Mystery Series Book 6) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Barbara Stegall
Mike and Madeline are Private Investigators that have five other books. They are looking into a couple of cases in this book. I feel like I should go back and read the other books to understand all the references to the past. One of the current cases has a tie back to the past. The story is well written and the characters are believable. I will have to say the only down side to this book for me was that I had it figured out early in the book so it was a little hard to finish reading the book. I do like series but for this one I need to start at the beginning to get the full effect I think.

Athena is a successful woman motivated by the pain of her past. Can she overcome that or will she let it get in her way of the super hot pool player that comes in to her pool hall?
She is surrounded by money and lifelong friends that are better than family.
I loved Athena’s personality. I loved Tru and his Ma. I loved the dialog with Indigo and Gwyn towards Athena’s decisions (or lack of).
This was a quick read. I couldn’t put it down. There was steam. There was emotion.

(A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Changley Cavins
As a huge fan of sci-fi, I really loves this book. Set between multiple characters, it can be hard to follow at times and to find the major connection between them. The end product was incredible and makes those connections apparent. I took one star off because I felt there could have been less characters or the flow between them could have been better. I also was thrown by the fact that very few contractions were used, making the dialogue kind of stunted. Overall I really did enjoy this book and am looking forward to reading the next installment now that I know the connections.

This was a great young adult novel! It has been a little while since I picked up a young adult novel because I wasn’t sure it could capture my attention as well. Sweet Nightmares by Chynna Pace had no problem pulling me in! I finished this book in under a day!!
Following the emotional trail that Alex leaves dealing with her mom’s death and having a rude Grandma and trying to care for her sister and learning truly shocking pieces of herself and her heritage, it leaves you a little raw after reading. Chynna Pace spares no word while feeding you emotions to match Alex’s and sometimes Zoey’s. Their story is just starting and by the end of the book, they know it too. This is such a great setup to book 2, but if you don’t plan on reading book 2, you will after the ending!

The Marcy series box set by Linda Burson fantastic four-star reads. Rage, Confusion and Agony and Ecstasy complete the Marcy series, this series was good, and it shows us Marcy is a strong character and she shows us her strength of character that will surprise you at times, but it will also show you how great the writing and character development is by this author. These stories have their ups and downs and suspense a plenty as well as drama, there is a love triangle, so that’s kinda a given. But there’s another side as well, a deeper side that’s filled with a depth and drama you don’t see often, its well written and compelling and makes a very fast paced story easy to grasp. Overall, they are very good stories, they just missed that something special that blew me away.

Repair by Trish Williford is a great romance novel that has all dreamy aspects of romance! While I read a lot of romance novels, I haven’t come across one with the “fixer” ideal. I have to be honest, this wasn’t 100% my bread and butter. I normally read very fast paced romance books, and while this book doesn’t quite fit into that category, falling in love with the characters slowly was a very nice experience.
The book follows the normal “I’m your big bro’s best bud, therefore I can’t have you” storyline you day-dream about, but Trish Williford doesn’t stop at just romance in this book. She tackles all the feelings of self-doubt and issues that men go through with Tank. She gives us the dark sides of the characters so we can fall in love with the people and not just their story. This was such a well written book! @karenmmarsh

This is one of the best crime books I’ve read this year. Action-packed and a definite page turner, Nick is one of my favorite characters because he is real and moody. He is deep and has a personality that just makes him feel real. The story feels like something that could have been taken from the headlines. I would have though Nick might have passed on this case because Angie killed herself, but he pushed through. Along with the stress of the case, he has his “girlfriend,” Laura, who is trying to get her psychopath twin sister out of her life. What a challenge Nick has to overcome, but he does. He keeps pursuing the case and looking for those clues. The plot and descriptions work with the story also. The story leaves you breathless at times. You might forget you are holding your breathe at times. You feel like you’re on a roller coaster. This is a must for lovers of crime stories. Highly recommend.

This is the first book I’ve read by AJ Renee. It is Book 4 in the Broderick Coven series. The first thing I appreciated about this book was that even though it was a part of the series, I was able to jump right in and understand everything. AJ Renee gave plenty of background and character development throughout the book where I was not lost, even though I hadn’t read any previous books.
This story is about Carter Broderick, a doctor with magical healing powers, who is blindsided by an instant connection to Vanessa Rayne. Vanessa was equally stricken with Carter. Their connection is strong and unexplainable and passionate. It was so enthralling following them getting to know one another on every level. The scenes of passion were well written. Along the way Vanessa gets herself into trouble with her curiosity and Carter is determined to keep her safe. This book is Adventurous, Romantic, and easy to read in one sitting. I am definitely going to check out the rest of the series and get to know the Brodericks more!

I read James Talisman’s first Journey Through Book and thoroughly enjoyed it. You can read this one even if you haven’t read the first, but there are some repeat characters and I believe you’ll enjoy it better than if you didn’t read it in order. I love how this book grabs you from the beginning and sucks you into another world. The writing style is very descriptive, making it easy to vividly picture everything. Overall another very entertaining read!

Bared is book one in the Green Street Girls Romance series by N. D. Jackson. The story was an emotionally charged drama that flowed along gracefully and dramatically. Athena and her soul sisters were ready to take on the world and falling in love was not in the cards for her. Tru comes along and rocks her to her very core. She was unprepared for all of the feelings he invoked, all that he represented and the way he wedged his way into her heart. She had her girls and her business and that was all she needed. Or so she thought. These characters blended together well and despite their individuality, they connected very well and were a pleasure to read about. The author spun a wonderfully intricate and thought provoking tale. A fabulous introduction to the Green Street girls. An endearing story. 4 stars.

Cursed Touch is book four into the Broderick Coven series! I have enjoyed the unfolding of each of the Broderick’s from the very BEGINNING. The author did not disappoint at all in this addition! I love her writing, it pulls you right in and leaves you wanting more! Even though this story belongs to a series, it very may well be read as a standalone. Such a quick easy to read story too! Has it’s share of magical/witchy unknowns and of course romance! Fantastic addition to the paranormal series if I must say. Soooo looking forward to reading the next Broderick Brother’s story!!!

Cursed Touch is the fourth book in the Broderick Coven Series by AJ Renee.
This is a wonderful series that only gets better with each book added. I would highly recommend this book to any lover of romance, magic, or paranormal stories. Honestly anyone else. If you are looking into new genres, start here! I absolutely love this author and what she brings to the table.
Carter has always been a healer, so joining the medical field was nothing for him. He was great at what he did and enjoyed helping people. Sure plenty of crazy things happen when you work in the medical field, but he sure wasn’t ready for the change Vanessa brought into his life.
An action and drama packed tale that is sure to keep you reading well into the night.

Having a deep dark past can push you to a point of no return. Sam has finally had it. The last straw has finally broken. Dark Bastard is the fifth book in the Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells. Just as amazing as the books that came before it, this story takes us on a journey of two broken souls and a past that comes back to threaten them once again. Sam is about to make the most important call of his life when he makes a mistake and winds up talking to a woman who just might need him more than he thinks. And just when he thinks that Ellie is going to be okay, that deep dark past I spoke about earlier, yeah that one…well that comes back to hit him right in the face. Sam and Ellie both seem to have similar situations. Both the need to feel like the hero and savior and they both have sordid pasts. These two characters work so well together. You can’t help but fall in love with them and the story itself. I completely love this book and love this series. Of course, I always suggest that you read the series from the beginning that way you aren’t lost. However, you can read this book by itself. This book will not disappoint and I most definitely cannot wait to read the last book in the series!

This book picks up where the first book left off. Lucy has learned who her father is…survived an attack…and is trying to find her way in this new reality she finds herself a part of. Jude is forcing her to train with him in order to harness and improve her demon powers. He is also training Dylan at the same time…which is driving Lucy’s hormones crazy. She loves Marcus and can’t figure out why her mind is even thinking of Dylan that way. On top of that, a new threat has come on the scene that is forcing Marcus away from her while presenting a new enemy that she must face. When she learns the reality of what happens when a demon dies, she is determined to keep her father safe. But when she conjures up a plan that requires summoning the king of demons, will she be able to do it? Or is there another way? Because if there isn’t…then there is going to be quite a price to pay… I enjoyed reading the story. The characters are great. The story takes so many twists and turns that it is hard to figure out who the good guys are. Every action has a part in moving the story along…and I am still left with questions that will hopefully be answered in the next book. Overall, a good book!

Hairball and Homicide is the first book in the Kitty Beret Café Mystery series by Ruth J. Hartman. It is a cute cozy mystery- with some very quirky characters, a colourful cat café, murder, crime + investigation, humour, banter, a little romance, drama, and angst. We meet Ellie Warren who owns the Kitty Beret Café where lattes and kitties abound. Life is good- until one of her crankier customers is found murdered, behind her café… and so the story begins. This is a fun story to read with plenty of detailed descriptions that help set the scene/s. I love the original quirky premise of a cat café mystery series and am curious to see where we go from here. The only minor issue that I had is that the ‘mystery’ in the story got overshadowed somewhat by all the ‘cat’ elements, antics, shenanigans, costumes etc. Some of them were a little too long and involved and disrupted the flow of the actual ‘mystery’- but overall it was a fun and enjoyable story. I did adore Templeton though…

Forbidden mate continues the story of Levi and Tasha so if you haven’t read first book, read it first. It builds on plot of that first book heavily. I love seeing progression of the relationship of our hero and heroine. The secondary characters are so fleshed out in this series as well. The plot continues to thicken as the heroine learns things about herself she didn’t know involving her gifts. Looking forward to reading the next book!!

Hold Me Forever was a great read! It was entertaining, quick, sweet, and I laughed several time while reading this novel. Raven’s story was so good, but I honestly honestly I enjoyed Lark’s better! It was so hard for me to put this book down when I started reading it. I fell in love the moment I read the first page. I really hope Nolan continues this series somehow but I don’t see how. I just love Heron Harbor so much and I don’t want to end! This was a great read and I highly recommend this standalone series!

A straight up sexy romance novel. Despite there not being much in the storyline besides Athena’s reluctant personal growth and the push and pull romance between Athena and Tru this novel kept me engaged, reading more, wanting to know what would happen next.
Can’t say I’ve read a romance novel before where one of the main characters was a professional pool player, and I’m so here for it.
I enjoyed the added backstory of Tru’s mixed heritage and the stressors reared with that. Also, Tru’s mom was a hoot and such a strong supportive side character. I loved the impact she, as well as Imogen and Gwyn has on Athena and Tru’s budding relationship.
I admit I wasn’t the biggest fan of the teasing of Athena’s backstory. I feel like it would have had more of an impact if we knew the complete backstory story of what had occurred closer to the beginning rather than hints dropped here and there.
As this is advertised as one of the Green Street Girls romance novels I can’t wait to read more about Imogen and Gwyn, and to see where Tru and Athena are down the road.

(A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Alexandria Richard
In this sequel to Boy On Hold, we jump ahead to Tyler being released from the psychiatric facility and moving home to Marcella’s. Marcella has moved away from the neighborhood where the incident happened. Marcella and Bernie have purchased and are running a motel in a resort community.
The past comes back to haunt this family trying to make a brand new start. Tyler is adapting to freedom. Everyone is adapting to having Tyler home. Hen is coming to grips with his impending inheritance and the burden it carries. An attack on Marcella leaves everyone believing the worst about Tyler. Was it the sins of the past catching up with the future? Could it be Tyler?
Again, J.D. Spero leaves the reader on slow burn. You know what happened but find yourself questioning what you know. Could it be Tyler? And, then BAM! The world tilts and the sunshine differently. I don’t know what happens next in Hen’s world, but I am along for the ride. Brava!!! J.D., brava!

These books are amazing! Can I legit be Sunshine? She is seriously who my little 12 year old self wanted to be. A librarian with the nack to solve mysteries. She had me giggling at her antics. I saw myself in her throughout each book. I adore the entire community that surrounds her. Though, I must say I’ve started to have a little soft spot for Chef James. Each book is an entirely different mystery that draws sunshine into its clutches. It had me going ” I knew it!” to “Nope. No I didn’t.”. I loved how through the entire series she continuously leaned on God to protect her and lead her in the right direction. I am so in love with this series. I need the next one. You will not regret getting this series.
When I started this book I didn’t realize it was the 6th in the series. When I realized it was I kept reading anyway because the author explained everything in a way that I could understand the story line even though I hadn’t read the other 5. I still LOVED this book. It is a mystery thriller that had me turning each page in anticipation to find out what happened to the missing and why. I cannot wait to go back and read the other 5 books because Cynthia Hamilton’s writing is phenomenal. She drew me into Madeline and Mike’s world and it felt like I was right there with them trying to solve the mystery. I can’t wait to go back to read the other’s.

Athena is the character that I didn’t know I needed. She is strong and fierce and knows how to run her own businesses and make a hell of a profit. She has her sisters (in name, not blood) and they are proof that a woman can do everything a man can do – even in a predominantly man’s world – and even do it better. I was instantly hooked on this story from the first page and could not put it down until it was finished. The storyline at the beginning tugs on your heartstrings in such a way that makes you root for Athena, Indigo, and Gwyn. This was Athena’s story and it was told incredibly well. I felt her pain, her inner turmoil, and her happiness with every line written. She had an extremely rough time from 17 on and she turned it into one of the best things that could have happened to her. Tru is the epitome of what happens when a good-at-heart man works extremely hard to get where he is in life. There was nothing that came easy for him growing up and he proved that his determination could win out and he could do exactly what he set his heart and mind to. He is a professional billiards player and travels around the world doing tournaments and taking care of his mother. It isn’t until he meets Athena that his past heartbreak becomes something he is ready to move on from. The two of them together made this book something incredible. The chemistry between them was evident from their first meeting and my eyes stayed glued to this book until I soaked up every word. I cannot wait to see more from ND Jackson and the Green St. Girls! If you haven’t read it yet, don’t hesitate. HIGHLY recommend!
