Stormy’s Thunder: Satan’s Devils MC Utah Book 2 by Manda Mellett is a bit tough to read in the beginning. Stormy is a character who’s made some big mistakes in the eyes of his SD brothers. Not only the Utah Chapter but some of the others too. But as with many of Ms. Mellett’s books, you get hooked right into the story and take the twists and turns because the book is so good. I love that this book shows us the real Stormy and how lost he really feels. Is it too late for Stormy or will he find help in an unexpected way?

Road Tripped: Satan’s Devils MC Utah Book 1 by Manda Mellett is another great story that takes you for a ride! Road takes a bad fall during a race that changes his life. He’s brooding and angry when Drummer sends him to the Utah chapter to figure out “what doesn’t seem right” to Drummer about the Utah chapter. Road figures out quickly that this are not what he expected and he is pushed to make a choice that may mean he ends up dead. Something comes up that pushes Road to quickly learn what the Utah chapter is working on which changes his view. His new dilemma? Does he keep the information to himself or does he share it with Dummer? I love everything about this MC chapter. There are parts that came up I never expected. And I’m always excited to see the bonds between all the characters whether they have small parts or larger ones.

This book was mysterious and intriguing and romantic. There were definitely some twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. I really enjoyed how the author grabbed me and brought me into the story so much so that I couldn’t put it down. This is the first book I have read by this author and I’m glad I decided to give it a try because I found her writing to be unique and entertaining. Emma and Toby’s characters really brought this story to life. Toby has secrets from his past and Emma also has her own past, but there is no denying the attraction between these two. There is more to this story than meets the eye and I enjoyed the adventure, but I don’t want to give anything away. This is a good read and I recommend it.

Stormy’s Thunder is the second book in this series and while it can be read as a standalone, I suggest that you read book one first. Stormy is the main character in this novel and he has some proving to do. Manda Mellett is a wonderful and imaginative author. She knows exactly how to write an MC novel. When reading any novel by Manda Mellett you get sucked in and can’t put the novel down. This is one of the hallmarks of a wonderful and stunning writer.

Stormy’s Thunder (Satan’s Devils MC Utah #2) by Manda Mellett was an emotional read. My heart went out to Stormy and it definitely helped me understand him more. I went on a roller coaster ride while reading, so much happened and just when I felt settled to continue there was another twist. You can read the series as standalones but I think reading in order adds more to each read. I look forward to the next book!

This is the second book I’ve read by Mindy. I thought Dom’s story was good, but darn if Mason didn’t pull me in. This is the second book of the Adams Brothers Series.
Gabi isn’t looking for a relationship when she meets Mason Adams. Between her best friend and later her father she finally gives in and gives him a chance. When her ex-husband shows up it threatens everything she wants. The quote I chose for Gabi is: Okay, yes, he’s hot. Those shoulders alone make my knees feel funny. He really should be a model or an actor, not stuck behind a lathe all day long.”
Mason is the middle boy of the Adams boys. With his oldest brother’s wedding coming up he isn’t sure what he wants. When Gabi enters AdamsMade for the first time he knows he wants her. Things go from great to worse in a matter of seconds. The quote I chose for Mason is: “I still can’t get used to you like this, and for the record, f*ik that. I don’t need to be tied down for any reason. The business keeps me busy at all hours, and at the end of the day, all I really need is a good f**k.”
Highly recommended for contemporary romance lovers.

I’ve read and listened to the first 2 books in this series. I love KG Fletcher. I wasn’t going to read this book. I knew who the main female character was, and didn’t want to hear her story – lol. I’m really glad I did listen to the audiobook though. The narrator was perfect and the book was awesome. I enjoyed it and I can say I finished this series with no malice in my heart for any of the characters. You really do need to read these in order. This book focuses on Fiona, and she’s introduced in book 1. It was a great story and put together well. I recommend EVERYTHING KG Fletcher writes. This series was wonderful.

This is my first book by Kat Caulberg and definitely will not be my last. When I start reading a new author I am always hesitant at the beginning, but this story was totally different. The first page until the last word held my attention so intently. The plotline kept the story moving. There was not a single point that I could put the book down. The characters really make this story great. They are fully developed and complex in nature. This book is about Emma and Toby. Emma has moved to England and does not understand what is going on with herself. .She has settled into a country village but there some strange happenings going around town. Then there was Toby. Toby has a secret. He would like to leave in the past. Toby does not know what to do when Emma walks into his world. There is just something about the two of them together that makes everything so right. Will Emma find out the secrets of Toby’s past? Will Toby find out Emma’s past? Will they become a couple? I highly recommend this book.

Book two in this series about the Adams brothers and this time the storyline centres around Mason Adams. Mason runs his own successful furniture business and through work he meets Gabi and suddenly he is determined to make her change her mind when she turns him down for a date. Gabi Turner has literally started again following her divorce and is completely focused on her burgeoning interior design business. When the sexy local carpenter Mason, who has a bit of a reputation asks her out she says no but soon learns he’s set on changing her mind. Gabi and Mason find themselves working closely together on a gutted Victorian house and the more time they spend together the more Gabi finds herself dreaming of a future but is reluctant to trust her heart to another man. The chemistry between Gabi and Mason is instant and it really comes across in the narrative and leads to some steamy scenes. I loved both the main characters and was cheering them on hoping they would get their HEA, no spoilers! Having read and enjoyed the first book I was definitely not disappointed by this second instalment as the plot was full of romance and suspense. ‘At Once’ is a real page turner and I felt immersed in the story. I’m looking forward to reading Sebastian’s story next.

I thoroughly enjoyed this contemporary romance story and it’s a great start to a new series featuring the Adams brothers. In ‘At Last’ the storyline focuses on Dominic Adams, a High School history teacher who is popular with women and how a chance encounter at a jazz club with Lula Stanley makes him realise its Lula he wants a relationship with. Lula, a literature teacher lost her mother and now her grandmother’s health is failing and she’s never known her father as her mother tried hard to keep him a secret, so she decides to track him down. With her life in chaos it’s not the perfect time for romance but once she catches the eye of Dom she soon learns he is not going to give up and, he is also very sexy! As Dom and Lula try to solve her family’s mystery and track down her father the couple get closer to one another and realise it could be true love. This is an enjoyable and engaging read with some great characters and a plot which makes you keep turning the pages to find out how it’s going to end whilst hoping that Dom and Lula will get their happy ever after. The chemistry between the pair sizzles off the page and leads to some steamy scenes, however there is also plenty of romance and suspense all of which kept me hooked. As well as main characters, Dom and Lula we are also introduced to the other Adams brothers, Mason and Sebastian and I can’t wait to read their stories.

Night Justice by India Kells and Narrated by Dan Price
I have listen to lots of audiobooks over the last few years, especially while working and discovered very early on that the narrator could make me love or hate the book regardless of the story.
Mr. Price did a great job reading and the voice modulator was a great touch. I would get so lost in the story that I would just stop doing everything else and listen.
Great story and narration which I throughly enjoyed every minute of.

I found this book quite bizarre and toe curling. It reminded me of a gory version of Covid-19 – if the virus were a person this is how it would be perceived. It certainly takes an active imagination to come up with such a stomach twisting short story.

This is the story of Mason Adams and Gabi Turner, he makes handmade wooden furniture and has his own business doing it and she is an interior designer in business with her best friend, they have just landed a contract to work on a Victorian house for a very exacting customer, so when they need exclusively designed furniture, Gabi’s best friend knows just who to turn to, so they end up and Mason’s furniture workshop and showroom, but when they meet there for the first time, it is unforgettable.
When the first design has been shared, they agree to work together on it and this is just the start of their partnership and although she didn’t show the slightest sign that there was a connection there, Mason is determined to remedy that as soon as he can. Later on as the ladies gossip over wine and chocolate, Gabi cannot deny that she has the hots for him, especially when her skin flushes every time she thinks of him, but knowing that nothing would ever happen after the last guy she married and escaped from three years before.
As the renovations progress, Gabi finally gets the go ahead for one of her design boards and she is over the moon, the table is the thing that sealed the deal and when the client meets the man making it, she decides that she wants all the furnishings done by him, that means that Mason and Gabi have to work together a lot more. However, the high from the meeting doesn’t last when she receives a text from an unknown number and Gabi knows exactly who it is and it is the last thing she wanted or needed right now. The next day Gabi goes to the house to start work on the swatches and thinking that she will be on her own, she is completely surprised and horrified at the same time when she turns round to see Mason is in the house as well, this just amuses him and irritates her to now end, but when he becomes more flirtatious with her, it takes all her self control to stay that way, but unbeknownst to her, Mason is using all his self control to stay away from her, but he is determined to bide his time and work on her slowly.
This he does and Gabi is not as immune to his charms as she may think and it doesn’t help when her best friend is like a dog with a bone and is either encouraging him or her, or leaving them both in situations where flirting is a definite consequence, but will Gabi be able to keep her developing feelings for Mason under wraps, or will she stop him from capturing her heart like he has started to do with her body? This is a steamy romance which is as passionate as it is full of character which keeps you guessing until the very end!
Stormy’s Thunder: Satan’s Devils MC Utah #2 by Manda Mellett
Another great read by Mellett. She knows how to keep her readers coming back to her books. Stormy’s Thunder is a great book.
Cat meets Stormy when he’s on the run from the club. She doesn’t know he’s in a club until she sees his tat. The quote I chose for Cat is: “You’re the good guys? But isn’t that like the FBI or something?”
Stormy is a Utah Member of Satan’s Devils and he’s been on the run. He took something from the San Diego Chapter when shooting someone. The quote I chose for Stormy is: “I feel like I’m at a crossroads. I’m a member now, but I don’t know if I want to stay one. I could go back, or forward, and for the life of me, I don’t know which I f**kin’ want.”

I enjoyed this story. This is not my first book by this author and I have enjoyed all books that I have read from her. This is one of my favorites by her. This is a well rounded story that has characters that make the story feel real. They are engaging and kept me turning pages to the end. This is Tessa and Jordan’s story. Tessa is struggling to keep things going and the last thing she needs is to be on Jordan’s radar. They have a past and she was blackmailed into leaving him. The problem is now he wants revenge. Will he learn the truth and what will fate have in store for them? I really just enjoy them and their chemistry. I enjoyed watching them grow throughout the story and what they bring to it. I highly recommend this book and this author.

This is a fast paced story that has characters that are connectable and brought the story to life. This is a story that is unique and creative.

Kendyll and Vance childhood sweethearts is that passion still there. Well that was a little bit of a surprise. Vance to be honest I don’t like his character or attitude. This book had many twist and turns to be honest it took me a few chapters to get into it. It a very clean Romance and adds in dark elements relating to slavery which was unexpected. I wish there was more to this story as I felt the ending was abrupt.
What a hoot! This story was so funny and keeps you completely engaged. In 1969, at Woodstock, Bonnie hooks up with Peter Hampton. Years later, Bonnie dies after some incredibly hot sex with her husband and ends up in Purgatory, or the Green Room, as the story calls it. Bonnie meets up with her best friend and together they go on a wild journey as Bonnie tries to reconnect with her one true love. This is the best hour you will spend listening to a great book!

Frettier – Review by Heidi Schoolman
Hungry Business: A Short Story by Maria DeBlassie is a well written and detailed story that left me intrigued from start to finish. I loved the lighthearted, conversational tone that the book has – almost like it is is someone recounting their dating experiences in general instead of the twist that is in there. I actually thought it was an amusing read, I was chucking along with some of the descriptions the author used and it is that which drew me in initially. I enjoyed how open the ending was without it feeling unfinished. This is definitely a book I would love to see as a full length novel – the basis is all there and I think it would be excellent. In lieu of that I would highly recommend this book!

Welp, I have to say that I have never understood the reasoning behind human sacrifice, or any sacrifice for that matter, but there you go. Still, I thought it was an interesting concept for a fantasy novel and I was right, this was an interesting read. Athalie has been chosen to be the annual sacrifice for her people, a sacrifice which will apparently bring them prosperity, so in spite of her reservations, she is determined to do her part. The only problem is that the head honcho (the emperor) has got his mitts on something extremely powerful that he thinks will answer all his people’s problems and wipe their adversaries off the face of the planet for good. Only problem is that this powerful weapon will instead just wipe out the planet. To stop this from happening, Athalie is brought back, incognito to stop the power of the weapon using talismans. This book is full of adventure and some wonderfully descriptive passages that honestly were stunning. Elizabeth is honestly a fantastic writer and I really enjoyed this book, cannot recommend it enough. I am looking forward to reading the second book.

5 out of 5 stars. Athalie (Sacrificial Chronicles Book 1) by Jordan Elizabeth is the first book by this author that I have picked up, but it surely won’t be the last. This YA fantasy novel is packed with action, adventure, romance, mythology, and enough intrigue to hold the imagination of even the most finicky reader. In this first installment, Athalie is chosen as the Sapphire Empire’s yearly sacrifice and her future is instantly stripped away from her. However, she convinces the gods to give her a second chance to save her world and the people she loves. The challenges, obstacles, and magic she encounters along the way is sure to provide a mile-a-minute read – I could not read fast enough. I give this book the highest recommendation, and I will definitely be checking out more books by Jordan Elizabeth.

Where Flowers Bloom by Nikki Vale. This is such a good book I read it in one sitting. Its the story of Romance writer Kendyll who moves to North Carolina. She is also trying to come up with her own fairy tale ending but it is much easier to write about than actually live it. Kendyll has a long time fiance but the relationship has become very stale and she thinks this move will help. When Kendyll moves to North Carolina she ends up moving into a very old mansion and finds things from the past there. There is a ghost who still roams all over the mansion but he doesn’t expose himself to many. He is very angry so Kendyll wants to try to help the ghost because he is still very angry from things of the past. He was a plantation owner’s son and he was in love with a black slave girl which was very much forbidden. Is there a connection to this past story with Kendyll’s future. This story ties the past with the present and its a very emotional story.
At Once is the 2nd book in the Adams Brothers Series by Mindy McKinley. It can be read as a standalone but as I loved this and the first book so much I’d say you have to read book one ‘At Last’ before reading this one. At Once is the story of middle sibling Mason Adams, a very talented furniture maker and recently divorced Gabi Turner who is trying to make a success of her business with best friend Kylie; G&K Designs. When trying to make a huge success of first major job designing the house of a very wealthy, fussy client, Kylie introduces Gabi to the amazing furniture made by Mason Adams. Gabi falls in love immediately with his work before meeting the man himself. Lets just say that I’d hate to have been in the way of the sparks that flew when these two first met. When the fussy client also falls in love with Mason’s work, Mason and Gabi are forced to work closely together. I adored this book. Gabi and Mason’s story has me hooked immediately and took me on a fantastic journey that I didn’t want to get off of. Their characters are amazing and I fell in love with both of them and was rooting for the two of them to get their deserved HEA. I also loved getting to see the other Adams siblings again and see what’s going on in their lives. One thing I really love is that I have the 3rd book At All ready and waiting for me on my kindle and I just can’t wait to see what Mindy McKinley has in store next for the awesome Adams Brothers.

Hungry Business A Short Story By Maria DeBlassie ☆☆☆☆☆ This is a very short story, with a lot to say. While it is a horror story, it is not the scarry type. I love the dating aspect. I have had these dates, we all have. Which makes this story fun over a cup of coffee. Just the right size to occupy your time while waiting. I hope you find the humor I found.
Maria DeBlassie is a new author for me. But what a great find. This is a well written fast read with an ending. Love the many aspects of finding a beating heart among the living dead. I will most definitely be looking for more from Maria BeBlassie. Well Done Maria DeBlassie! Well Done!

I was pleasantly surprised with this novel. The teasers and blurb peaked my attention, even though this is not my normal go to for a genre. I really enjoyed such a unique storyline that Ullman has created. It reminded me of all the sci-fi movies that I have really enjoyed, and it read like a movie too. In the book we find a world with social classes that are on the outside pretty self explainable but are really more in depth and of course has ramifications that will affect everyone. We have the Havalls, and the Havenots. Havall 16 had decided to go back in time and work to stop things that made this social class possible. The adventure has just about everything you could want in a sci-fi read and will keep you on the edge of your seat as you read and cheer Havall 16 on. I would be interested to see if we get any other novels with the same story idea as this one, I am sure it will be great.

This is the tale of Lula Stanley and Dominic Adams, they are both teachers at East High School, however, this is where the similarities end, Dominic is known for his reputation with the ladies and his looks and charm are always turned on, but Lula is the odd one out with her mismatched style, big fluffy jumpers and eccentric choice in glasses, but all that changes with a chance encounter at a jazz club. Dominic has been encouraged to go out on a school night with his brother and as he is a jazz musician, they undoubtedly have to go to a jazz club, Dominic is more than a little reluctant with his current workload, but doesn’t want to pass up a chance to see some beautiful women singing. Lula is there with her best friend, coincidentally, also a teacher at the school and she is about to take centre stage in a slinky black satin dress and bright red lip, she croons her way through the performance and turns into a seductress all the while, Dominic doesn’t realise what has hit him until the announcer says her name at the end.
This starts off a chain of events for the two of them, he can’t believe that that the performer and the teacher are the same person, but as soon as he does, he cannot take his mind of her and she cannot believe that she is getting that kind of attention from him, just plain old boring Lula and the craziest part is that he is reciprocating it, especially after him seeing her land on her butt after slipping on the ice earlier that week! As Dominic decides that fate isn’t moving quick enough, he finds more ways to be around Lula and to explore their connection, including signing up to help her out at an after school club she runs, while all the time working on a personal project as well. Lula is also running a tight ship between visiting her Nan and then a shocking piece of information about her never present father leads her on a research binge of her own.
As the two become closer because of events in both of their families which are beyond their control and give in to their urges and the electricity whenever they are around each other, their research projects begin to intertwine as Dominic realises that Lula’s father may have a connection to what he is working on, but it turns out that not even their budding relationship is without its ups and downs when things take turns for the worse, but will they be able to consolidate their differences and acknowledge the future they may have together, or will the ghosts from their pasts keep them apart forever? This is a romance with plenty of steam to it, but still leaves you guessing how the mysteries within will play out and it will tug at your heartstrings along the way.

This was a cute story. I was surprised at how much I ended up liking Fiona, so much more than I intended. There were a few moments that I had to stop what I was doing and really pay attention so I didn’t miss a word. The part that sticks with me most is when Chris says those certain words to her and she takes the time to really let that resonate with her and what that means for her future

It just goes to show you, the saying “never judge a book by its cover” is so true. In this case it’s a character. When K.G. Fletcher introduced us to Fiona in the first installment of the Reigning Hearts series, as Thomas Capshaw’s girlfriend, I absolutely hated her. BUT when I started listening to A Sun So Bright the depths of Fiona’s character was revealed and I fell in love with her. Chris on the other hand….. INSTA-LOVE
This was again a superb book in the Reigning Hearts series and as the series develops so does K.G. Fletcher’s writing. Again her talent as a narrator also brought extra heart to the book. Can’t wait to read more.
