My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first time I’ve read this authors work and I will be on the hunt for more!!
This is the story of Annabelle (Annie), the girl from the wrong side of the tracks with the crazy grandma, and Wyatt, the jock. Fast forward 11 years later and Annabelle and Wyatt’s paths cross as adults.
Annie gave up her education to take care of her grandma and when she passes away, Annie is left with the farm. Wyatt has recently returned from serving in the military and has his own demons to face, when he goes in search of a job helping Annie take care of the farm she inherited.
As they learn more and more about each others past, they quickly become friends, and then more.
A very cute, yet romantic, story that had me laughing, crying, and hoping for a happily ever after.

The Monster That Ate My MommyThe Monster That Ate My Mommy by Jessica Aiken-Hall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had a huge interest in this book due to my own trauma in my childhood and while this book is heavy it was such a cathartic read. My inner-child struggled along with her retelling of her trauma but she also felt such a kinship with the author’s growth. The need for validation and love and accepting them in unhealthy ways is something I related with. Her resilience and strength though are so powerful that it left a lasting impression. I cried along as I read through some of her darkest moments but I also felt the power and strength of her resolving her trauma. This was such a good book and I can’t recommend it enough!

The Myder Bird TattooThe Myder Bird Tattoo by Julia Colbourn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Myder Bird Tattoo by Julia Colbourn is a great dark fantasy.

Everyone knows something about the stairs, the tattoos, and the kidnappings, but I have no idea what to ask. When the queen of the small country of Arcadia is killed, inter-racial tensions reach a boiling point. For decades, the delicate Ellisians have subjugated the stronger and more numerous Cadians, subduing and torturing them with the powerful Negaforce, but the Cadians have now discovered a leader who can organize them into rebelling. The queen’s two daughters were meant to die as well, but both efforts failed, and the kingdom is now in the hands of the older sister, whose brutality has been fine-tuned by her anxiety. Males with their inferior Negaforce have no significance in the Ellisians’ matriarchal culture. They are abandoned at birth and taken to be trained as mindless warriors to watch over the Cadians. When the queen’s younger sister discovers that many of these Brethren warriors are her brothers, a chain reaction of disaster begins.

I loved this story and the concept of it as well.I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting. This is the first book in the series and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

The Halfling’s Court (A Bad-Ass Faerie Tale Book 1) by Danielle Ackley-McPhail is a great fantasy story

Put your badass hat on! The rumbling of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Black leather glints in the light. Polished chrome has a gleam to it. The unrestricted freedom of the wide road.

Lance just wants to settle down with his wife after fending off renegade fae, redcaps, and enraged road gremlins. Instead, he fights the high king’s champion for an ancient blade and his right to the kingdom. Who will come out on top? Is it better to be king of the road or king of the realm? In either case, the hunt is on!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this sports romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. This is a well written story that pulled me in from the first word. The characters are relatable and would have no problems imagining being friends with them. They brought the story to life and made the story fun to read. This is a fast paced story about Claude and Delilah. This is their second chance romance story. They were married and divorced but with that comes lots of hurt. Years later when they meet again, will fate step in and give them a second chance? I enjoyed their growth throughout the story. It also was an emotional roller coaster in parts but they made such great characters. They really made the story for me. I highly recommend reading their story to find out what fate has in store for them.

Unlikely in Love (A Parker Lake Novel Book 1)
By Olivia Sherwood

This was such a sweet romantic story. Annabelle is very much alone now that her grandmother Sophie has passed away. I loved hearing all the stories about Sophie, who everyone in their small town thought was crazy. Sophie was a fun loving eccentric big hearted woman. Annabelle was also seen as a strange kid growing up in the small town. She does have 2 great best friends and I hope to learn more about them in the books to come. Wyatt also grew up in this small town but didn’t run in the same crowd as Annabelle. He is back home after being in the military, he has some scars on the outside and inside and is trying to work through some stuff. The chemistry between these two is off the charts and I was rooting for them the entire time. These characters are very relatable and I felt like I was right there in the story with them. This was an enjoyable read and I can’t wait to read the next one in this series. I highly recommend this book.

This first novel in the Parker Lake Series delivers the kind of heartwarming and touching tale that the synopsis introduces us to. Many times I found myself smiling or laughing along while I was reading.

Sherwood has written a beautifully heartwarming novel, with great character developments and makes you feel like you’re right there with them. She has the ability to paint a picture with her words while keeping the flow of the characters points of view.

Sherwood had me captivated within moments of starting the first chapter, I couldn’t stop reading! I will most definitely be waiting for the next novel, and hope to have the series on my shelf one day.

The Myder Bird TattooThe Myder Bird Tattoo by Julia Colbourn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Elfern works to unravel the secrets of her race, the Ellisians, and several mysteries about their coexistence with the Cadians and Ephems in the realm of Arcadia as tensions rise against the kingdom her queen mother rules with power and terror. The delicate Ellisians use a supernatural power, the Negaforce, to keep the physically strong Cadians under their thumb, and the differences between the two races couldn’t be further apart, Elfern learns, as she escapes an assasination attempt and finds an unlikely Cadian ally. As Elfern awakens to the brutality of her mother and sister and their way of ruling, she can’t help but wonder the best way to move the kingdom forward in a more harmonious way. Discovering her mother’s assassination attempt did not fail, she’s finds herself in a power struggle with her cruel sister to either keep things the way they’ve always been or forge a new path adopting some of the customs of the other races with whom they share their kingdom.

This was one of those books that I simply couldn’t stop reading until the end. Sometimes, I find myself having a hard time keeping up with nuances in fantasy books with different species and getting a clear picture of the world and characters; thankfully, this wasn’t one of those books. The author depicted an immersive world of characters and scenery that developed naturally while progressing the storyline. It had a dsytopian feel to it, balanced out with moments of compassion and tenderness, and it was set up in a way that the reader was discovering the secrets of this relam alongside Elfern as she pieced together information she collected along the way. While the book ends in a way that is satisfactory on its own, I will be anxiously awaiting the next book in this series to see what happens next (Please tell me this is going to be a series book!!).

Unlikely in Love (A Parker Lake Novel Book 1)Unlikely in Love by Olivia Sherwood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Unlikely In Love is the first book in the Parker Lake series by Olivia Sherwood. This was a new author to me but I was interested in the blurb and decided to give it a go. I’m very glad I chose to as I really enjoyed this book.
I loved the female lead Annabelle (Annie) and the camaraderie that she has with her best friends. I’m envious of people who have that kind of relationship with their friends. They support one another but are not scared to have a laugh at their friend’s expense too and they sure do when Annie’s childhood crush Wyatt comes on the scene.
I also adored Wyatt, the male lead. I loved his sexy flirty ways that he had with Annie as he was trying to get under her skin and make her flustered. I really enjoyed reading the growing friendship and then budding romance between these two. The book is very well written and the storyline flows freely and keeps you engaged in the story from the very beginning right up until the very end.
I really enjoyed this book and I’m looking forward to reading more of this series.

Lake of Flowers (The Lord Hani Mysteries, book 5) by N.L. Holmes – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Lake of Flowers (Lord Hani #5)Lake of Flowers by N.L. Holmes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lake of Flowers is the fifth book in N.L. Holmes’ Lord Hani Mysteries series. By this point, the characters really feel like old friends and it’s so wonderful to catch up with them and hear how they’re coping in a turbulent world.
I adore Holmes’ writing for how vividly she depicts ancient worlds. Her work is heavily influenced by archaeology and research so while it’s fiction the story follows the course of real historical events. What really makes it special for me, though, is the small details. What characters eat and wear, their physical characteristics, how they travel, that sort of thing. The multisensory depiction immerses the reader in the world, and familiar elements (beer, honey, even garlic which really surprised me and I had to look that one up to see if they really would have eaten it!) brought me closer to the past.
Lake of Flowers begins with a tragic death that threatens to destabilise the kingdom’s political structure. Hani and his family and associates are all invested in the outcome of the inevitable unrest, and the mystery that deepens as the story progresses. Young Neferet plays a prominent role, with her position as a royal physician entangling her in the events of the book. She’s a fantastic character – funny, clever and independent.
I would recommend reading this series from the beginning (Bird in a Snare) to get to know the characters and the setting. There are lots of names to remember but Holmes does a good job of reminding readers in text as well as including a character list to refer to.
For me, this is a five-star read. I’d recommend it to fans of history and mystery! The series might also appeal to fans of high fantasy – although itself not fantasy, the setting and stories do at times remind me of fantasy books I’ve enjoyed with worlds based on history.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I have read in awhile that immediately grabbed my heart strings and pulled until I was so invested, I forgot to eat! Annabelle’s story in itself would have been enough to base a story off of – her relationship with Sophia, her best friends in the world, and the small town that loves her as much as she loves it. Then came Wyatt. Lord. Have. Mercy. The man has obviously been through a lot, but after three tours, a constant reminder on his face, PTSD, and a broken heart he finds himself back in his small hometown and it can only get better from here. Will they? Won’t they? Is it a good idea? Is there more to this than what meets the eye? This story had everything my romantic heart desired and kept me wanting more on every page. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of this series and whatever else Olivia comes out with.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

To paraphrase the book description, “Gigi, Ellen, Lilly… three women so desperate to change their lives that they turn to the mysterious Dr. Kite, who offers them an implant that can control their mind.”

Three women’s lives come together with Dr. Kite, who has a quick-fix for each of these three women’s short comings. Gigi, Ellen, and Lilly are determined to change and better themselves as human beings. Each women has a different short-coming; a different end-goal. Gigi has a mysterious disease. Ellen has issues with her weight. And Lilly, who is unhappy after a terrible divorce, is looking for eternal youth. And Dr. Kite has one simple solution for all of their problems! A microchip that will help? What could go wrong?

I love how the author, Jane Suen, leads you into the three women’s characters lives and problems separately. There are three different story lines that somehow tie into one plot. I love the perspective of each individual character and how their lives develop throughout.

I cannot wait to read the second book!

The Murders of Lillian RossThe Murders of Lillian Ross by Sirena Van Schaik
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lillian Ross is serving a death sentence for two murders that she committed. Over the years, all of the stories that came out about her and the circumstances have been filled with half truths. She is now ready for the real story to emerge, and asks for it to be written by Allison McKinnon, an author for the victims. This story provides insight to unfortunate and real aspects that some people face in life, abuse. As a survivor myself, although nowhere near the events in the book, I found that this provided a message of hope through tragedy. Each decision we make, and don’t make, has consequences. How we handle these outcomes is the challenge, for most, and sometimes that challenge becomes lost hope. However, learning and bonding with others is one way to fight the demons, as long as the demons haven’t destroyed you completely. Lillian and Allison build a silent bond, based off of these demons, but yet each woman’s story has a different ending! I enjoyed reading the story of these women and taking some of their strength to be able to deal with my own demons!

The Girl and the Raven by Pauline Gruber is the first book in a new YA paranormal romance series, The Girl and the Raven. Lucy is the main character and she has just discovered more than she ever could imagine about herself and her family. I really like this flawed and likable character. She comes across as realistic because she does not react to what is going on with a wealth of teenage trope attitude. Instead, she is shocked, dismayed, intrigued, and curious. I like this is not another teen story following the same storyline of many other YA paranormal stories. I was curious as to where the story was leading and want to continue reading this series. The interactions between the different factions kept me curious and I really like the characters. They are well developed and focused on the story. I look forward to reading more from this author soon.

This is the 3rd book in the Bad Man on Campus Series. This is ok to read as a standalone alone which is what I have done.I found this story really sad and heartbreaking at times. But a good story through all the pain.

Kace  left to deal with his own problems and his need for distance from everyone he knows to move forward. Now after a successful time as a hockey champion he has returned to get back the woman he loves. However time has changed and Kace’s reputation as player means that the couple will have a lot of hills to overcome if they are going to be together. Hills and obstacles put in their way from the past and the present.
Are Kace  and Glory strong enough this time around to get through them and revive their love. Or will too much have happened and things not been forgive will that eventually tear them apart.

I was intrigued by this story. I loved the jobs these two have. He’s a vet and she work with a group to free tigers and lions from circus’. Very noble for them both. Then he gets invited on a trip as their vet. Totally amazing! I loved the stories that came out of his trip on working with the animals. I’m so jealous! To me this is the main story..the romance came second. The descriptiveness which involved..little sleep, bugs, terrain and natives really helps sell this and make it believable.

I enjoyed meeting Simone and the rest of her friends that work saving these animals too. Simone was supposed to be the fundraiser and PR but I never saw her do that job except once. Mostly she ran on missions and feed/cleaned the animals. Each Simone and Sheldon have relationship issues. He seemed very aware and tried to overcome. She ran hot and cold and was not my favorite character for attitude. She did great with the animals but not the people.

Overall there are many delightful parts of this story. I did enjoy the “nod” to Frank from a different series. Sheldon is a very complex and amusing character. I was going to ask how the author came upon this idea but I found out in the acknowledgments.

Unlikely in Love is 5 stars all the way from start to finish! Olivia Sherwood is an amazingly talented author and I can’t wait to read more from the wonderful author and hopefully this series.

Annabelle (Annie) Cleaver was raised by her wonderful, super querky Grandma Sophie in the small town of Parker in Oklahoma. Crazy Sophie, as most of the town called her, became ill and after all she had done for Annie she felt compelled to return to Parker and help her Gran. She ended up staying longer than originally planned but was happy on their farm living their querky life until Sophie passes and she now needs to live a life without the amazing woman who means so much to her.
Along comes Wyatt Holloway the gorgeous, ok HOT, ex army man and old high school crush. He is looking for work and a distraction from the PTSD that plaques him since being honourably discharged from the Army.
Together they start working on repairing the farm but along the way it seems that just maybe, they are repairing a lot more than just the farm.

These characters are full of warmth, depth and so much heart. I want to go to Parker. I want to be apart of this wonderful community, be around these amazing people and I wish I had a Grandma Sophie for sure!. Any woman who names her animals after Disney characters is awesome in my book! I haven’t had so much fun reading a book in along time. I really hope Ms Sherwood takes us all back to Parker very very soon!

From what I can recall this is my first book by Danielle Jacks and it has me wondering why. While I tend to read ‘spicy’ romance books this book hit home with the realness that it portrayed. Jody is, as she feels, the family screw up. Honestly, she is a bit of a hot mess, but when her grandmother gets hurt she goes to her. There enters Adam. He is yummy. Their story held me captivated and I wasn’t mad about it. It is worth a read if you want a relatable love story.

Good read, but honestly I enjoyed the large cat rescue and release part of the story more than I enjoyed the romance. This story is definately a very SLOW burn. There are a few parts of this story that you can visualize and are so serene and so beautiful you wish you were actually there and could be a part of it all, and there are the parts that are so hilariously funny and graphic that you can almost smell what it was like to be there.
And lets just admire the Good Doctors hobby okay…. creating Minatures?? WHAT!?!?!

Caim (Antipodes Book 4) by T.S. Simons is a Dystopian post-apocalyptic, story. Expect the unexpected and that is what I like about TS’s writing. I thought book 3 was my favourite of the series but it would seem that this one is, which means they are getting better with each book. I have to say that my emotions from this book were running higher than normal. TS just loves taking her characters and readers on a roller coaster of an adventure. Just when they thought they were safe and settled their worlds are once again thrown into chaos.

I will say it again but make sure to read the books in order to ensure you have the full background on each of the characters and their struggles and lives so far.

Bittersweep by Wareeze Woodson is an historical romance story where one woman wants to know the truth of her past and returns to where it all began. Unfortunately, she becomes a prime suspect and gets far more than she bargained for. She becomes the talk of the town and the one who turns men’s heads. There are a lot of side characters and little tales of their own. With murder and rustling and bank robberies, and adventure this is more than just a romance story it is also a murder mystery and a cozy mystery all rolled into one.
