Rick (Ingram Brothers #3)Rick by Roz Lee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There is nothing better than reading a book that plays out like real life. The way we perceive how others see us, the way we put our blind faith in others and trust openly and the way some crazy just appears out of nowhere and hit’s you in the face like a brick. This was such an excellent example of all of the things life puts in front of us. The characters are amazing. The landscape is perfect, that house sounds so quaint and I can see every room as it is described!

This was a decent book read out of order, I have not read the two preceding books about the other brothers and I had a decent idea of who they were and it didn’t give away too much for me to go back and read them. (I’m on it, promise)

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 Complete, Sweet Holiday Romances
Joanne Dannon
5 out of 5 stars

There are few things I enjoy more than getting cozy on my couch in front of the Christmas tree with a good book. Make that a book filled with the magic and love of the holiday season and I could stay there all night. Dreaming of Christmas is the perfect collection of sweet, heartwarming stories that will fill you with holiday cheer. My favorite thing about this collection is that while each story has their similarities and ties, they are each unique and enjoyable in their own right as well. I most enjoyed the Christmas Kiss stories. I am a total sucker for the fake relationship plot so Christmas Kiss: But only for the Holidays was definitely a favorite of mine. Christmas Kiss: New Year’s Wish was another absolute favorite as it was another theme that I can not get enough of.
I will say, the characters in all five stories were relatable and likeable, you wanted each to have absolute happiness. Joanne Dannon really put together a great holiday collection I would recommend to anyone that wanted to get into the spirit of Christmas, faith and happiness.

Life’s a Witch (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 3) by Carrie Pulkinen – Review by Nicole Noble

Life's a Witch (New Orleans Nocturnes, #3)Life’s a Witch by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

2020 has been unreal. And if you’re anything like me, reading (which was already a passion) has become a wonderful escape. And you can definitely do this with Carrie Pulkine’s New Orleans Nocturne series. Light, funny with a touch of angst and a good romance, Ms. Pulkinen has quickly become a go-to author for me.

Life’s a Witch (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 3) is my latest read by this fun author and I was not disappointed. Now, keep in mind, all of Ms. Pulkinen’s books can be read as stand-alone reads but you will get oh so much more enjoyable if you read the books in order. One of the good things about doing this is that Ms. Pulkinen keeps the story moving through each book. There aren’t any “story gaps” between the books (which is AWESOME). You’ll be engaged in each story from the very beginning and pick up more and more details and nuances in each book, so yeah, read them ALL. But back to my review…

This is the 3rd book in this fabulous series and follows Crimson and Mike. And what a pair these two are! The sparks fly between these two from the get-go (and it’s not because Crimson had another spell go awry, lol). I fell in love with these 2 characters so much! I think they might be my favorite couple in this series so far. The shenanigans and circumstances that these two find themselves in are so crazy but hysterical. And the romance – WHEW!! Steamy but sweet! With the added benefit of the wonderful sub-characters and great story, this book was a true pleasure to read. I will definitely be picking up the next book in this series!

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Dreaming of ChristmasDreaming of Christmas by Joanne Dannon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this collection of five heartwarming festive romances. ‘Dreaming of Christmas’ gives us five books in one, and each story was a wonderfully written romance which put me in the Christmas spirit. The five stories were all linked and were all about love, hope, family and of course the magic of Christmas. In ‘A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem’, sparks fly between Kiara Lonsdale and Jacques Lenoir, who runs a family tours business in Israel, over camel rides in the desert and mud baths at the Dead Sea. The couple must decide whether what they have is just a holiday romance or something more. ‘Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem’, centres on Lucie Lenoir a tour guide in Jerusalem who is part of the family business. There is instant attraction between her and Tom Connor but Tom finds Lucie’s large family overwhelming and he’s never wanted a child of his own and Lucie does. The pair must either reach a compromise and have a relationship or just have a holiday romance. In ‘Christmas Kiss, New Year’s Wish’, Taylor Williamson has a massive crush on her best friend, Luca Bianchi but is afraid of ruining their twenty year friendship. Having shared a kiss or two at Christmas Taylor wishes their Christmas kisses will lead to more but Luca is about to return overseas for two more years.
‘Christmas Kiss in London’, introduces us to Amber who accidentally friends Stuntman Darcy Harris on social media but he lives halfway around the world, is a party guy and is younger than her. Darcy is interested in casual hookups where else Amber wants to settle down but there is a chance that their friendship can become love after sharing a snowy Christmas kiss in London. In ‘Christmas Kiss: But only for the holidays’, CEO Leo Turner needs a fake girlfriend for the holidays. Supermodel Jenna Williamson seems perfect as she’s not interested in settling down, however, when Christmas kisses become heated between the couple Leo realises that he can not meticulously organise everything. With a bit of Christmas magic their “arrangement” could become permanent. Each story has a lovely romantic storyline featuring some likeable, realistic and relatable characters, which made this an enjoyable and engaging read. The characters all came to life due to the authors descriptive narrative and the chemistry between the couples really came across as well. I could not put this book down once I picked it up and I fell in love with each story. This was a lovely romantic Christmas collection which is a perfect read for during the festive period.

Rick: Ingram Brothers #3 by Roz Lee – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Rick (Ingram Brothers #3)Rick by Roz Lee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rick is the third book in Roz Lee’s Ingram Brothers series. It starts off with Jake’s wedding, wrapping up the story of the previous book, before delving deep into Rick’s messy love life.
As well as being sexy from the get-go, there is depth to the characters and the complications they face. Rick has been in the closet for a long time, keeping his sexuality a secret from the military he served in and from his family. A long-term “thing” with Dave is complicated by both parties’ reluctance to be public about their relationship.
This is an enjoyable read. It was easy to connect to the characters and get invested in their experiences. I found myself rooting for Brent from the start – so caring and considerate. And of course there’s the whole accidental housemates trope which is very fun!
For me, this is a five star book. Great for fans of gay military romance, and I would recommend it to all fans of a good messy romance.

Unwrapped by Evelyn Sola is a quick, festive story that keep you entertained from start to finish. This is a nice easy read that is perfect for one of those lazy afternoons. I thought the story was quite fun and well paced. It was easy to get loaf in the pages.
I did find that there was a bit of disconnect with the characters. I would have liked to have got to know them a little bit more.
However then worked well together and had a connection between them that was obvious.
This is an overall enjoyable story that is certainly worth reading.

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon

Dannon has given us five holiday stories. A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem, Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem, Christmas Kiss New Year Wish, Christmas Kiss in London, and Christmas Kiss: But only for the holidays. The first reads by Joanne.

A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem

Kiara is coming to Jerusalem for a Christmas tour with her grandmother. When her grandmother says she’ll meet the love of her life Kiara is unsure. She runs into her tour guide and sparks fly. The quote I choose for Kiara is: “Do you know how much I’m eating? Everything tastes so good, I won’t be able to fit in my jeans.”

Jacques and his family run a tour guide company. He wasn’t expecting to fall in love. He wasn’t expecting for a tourist to capture his heart. He knows she’s the one. The quote I chose for Jacques is: “Bien sur. Of course. But what I don’t know is you. We’ve talked for hours but I hardly know anything about you. Tell me, Kiara, why did you come here? Was it to have a magical Christmas in Jerusalem?”

Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem

Lucie is the youngest sister of Jacques. She is heart broken and wants to set it right. She meets Kiara’s friend and finds that she likes him. The quote I choose for Lucie is: “It may seem old-fashioned but it’s what I want. And I thought you might be the one. And it may seem silly that I’m twenty-nine and hoping to be swept off my feet by the right guy, but I am.”

Tom comes to Jerusalem for Kiara’s wedding. He’s also there for his sister. He never wanted kids or a family. Things change when he meets Lucie. The quote I chose for Tom is: “Even if only a few want to change, I can put them on the right path, so they can grow up and become good men.”

Christmas Kiss; New Year Wish

Taylor loves everything vintage. She also loves her best friend. When a kiss changes everything will they be the same? She wants to be with him, but is scared. The quote I choose for Taylor is: “He was shocked, truly shocked. His mouth opened but no words came out. He loves me as a friend, and if that’s all I’m going to get, then I have to accept it. I just hope he still wants me in his life.”

Luca has no clue his bestie is in love with him. Being in America for two years has made him realize how much he misses his family. The quote I chose for Luca is: “I came to see your shop and then take you for lunch. This place is smaller than it looks in the photos you sent me but you’ve done an impressive job.”

Christmas Kiss in London

Amber has been missing her bestie who now lives in America. She befriends someone online after sending him a friend request she forgot to delete. When they start chatting things change. Can she find her happily ever after? The quote I choose for Amber is: “I know. But I’ve never had a lot of friends, and I was scared to travel on my own. If I analyse myself, I would say that my parent’s lack of acceptance of me and my work made me feel inadequate. If they’d encouraged me, perhaps I would’ve had the confidence to see all of this sooner.”

Darcy is a stuntman and loves what he does. He doesn’t see himself settling down. His career is important to him. When he gets a friend request from Amber he learns that he wants more. The quote I chose for Darcy is: “You most certainly will not. He shags every woman he can. I don’t want to hear about him going after you.”

Christmas Kiss: but only for the hoildays

Jenna is a model who doesn’t want kids. She soon learns that things can change for the better. She learns how to be a better daughter, a better sister and a better friend. The quote I chose for Jenna is: “It sounds silly but it is easier prancing around in next to nothing on a stage, because I’m acting. Sharing feelings, talking from the heart…it’s not really me.”

Leo is career driven and wants a family. He also needs a fake girlfriend. He goes to a friend for help, but will it turn to more? The quote I chose for Leo is “My parents reminded me that families come in different shapes and sizes. And I know that you won’t change your mind on having a baby the traditional way, and I’m not going to ask you to do something you don’t want to do. A baby is a lifetime commitment. It’s hard work. So, I have a compro‐ mise. Can you consider adopting or fostering a teen? But we’ll be doing it together. Not now. But maybe in a few years?”

Highly recommended for Sweet Romance lovers

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I found this book just like the first very exciting, fast-paced and steamy to say the very least. The heroine takes the reader by the horns into her world where she and her gang save the city of Chicago (or attempt to) but it’s deeper than that. Sloane and Luke’s chemistry is very heated but better together through those action-packed scenes I love as well. I won’t give too much away other than that but this is well worth the read!

I really enjoyed this book. It is a collection of 5 romance stories set at Christmas time. They are so full of festive joy and the magic of christmas that it really makes you get into the spirit of the season.

The romance is sweet and very fitting to go with the Christmas time. The stories are perfect reading to curl up with in front of a warm fire with hot chocolate. The characters are so well written that you can’t help but fall in love with them and feel all the emotions that they are going through.

These books are a great example of the magic and romance that Christmas can bring.

At Last (The Adams Brothers BOOK 1) by Mindy McKinley – Review by Colleen Noyes

At Last: Adams Brothers: Book 1At Last: Adams Brothers: Book 1 by Mindy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book surprised me, I’ll admit it. I’ve never read anything by this author and picked it up based off of the cover. Dom and Tallulah were such a cute couple, but not in the fluffy no substance kind. What I enjoyed most about this couple is that their relationship seemed very realistic. There is romance, but the parts that got me were the tender moments, the moments that they cared about each other, the simple brush of a hand, and the best was the banter. I am a woman who loves to banter and harass my man and get it back. There is romance and some HOT intimate scenes but they don’t drive the story or the book. There was substance to the words, to the story, there were surprises and even a little twist. They dealt with real world things and this book did a great job of showing how a couple thinks about those differently, but also how they find their strength in each other. The author’s writing style is very easy to read, the words just flowed, and she made you feel connected to each person even the secondary character like Amy, Mason, and Seb. If you enjoy contemporary romance that is about more than just doing it you will want to pick up this book. I already preordered the next book this morning!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third book in this series, I enjoyed it just as much as the previous two books. This author has continued to impress me with his writing skills and his attention to details. This book is no different. The plot is creative and the characters bring the story to life. This is a fast paced story that is engaging and easy to read. Rowena is back in another action filled story. This time she has taken to the streets to report the war going on around her. As things are falling apart around her she is forced to decide which side of the war she is on. She is such a great character and really does make the story for me. I highly recommend this book and this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

Fake Fiancé: A Second Chance Office Romance is another superb read from Amy McKinley. I know I have said this before, but I really do love Ms. McKinley’s books, she never fails to draw me into her stories, getting me completely invested in her wonderful characters and the outcome of their story. Ms. McKinley is a one-click, no questions asked author for me. I don’t need to know anything about her book to know that I will love it- and this book proves that point yet again.
I loved Adeline and Stone- their chemistry was intense and palpable. But if that alone isn’t enough to entice you, the story was cleverly woven with interesting elements that had me captivated the whole way through. Add a little mysteriousness, some touching & tender moments, emotion, a little drama, lots of spice- and an extra helping of destiny- and this story became un-put-downable.
Another feather for Ms. McKinley’s cap, that’s for sure!

Thank you, Amy McKinley!

Unwrapped by Evelyn Sola. When I read the “about” part of this story I knew I had to read it. This author is new to me but after this book I’ll definitely be looking for more. The author blended steamy romance with well written storyline nicely. Sometimes it can be a bit heavy handed but I didn’t feel that in the story. In the beginning it was a little slower but once I was drawn in I didn’t want it to end. I had a easy time connecting with each character and they each really made to story. It’s well written and paced nicely. I’m definitely excited to see what else this author has to offer. Four stars and highly recommended!

The Dog Thief and Other Stories by Jill Kearney. I was pleasantly surprised by this collection of stories that definitely captured my heart. This collection of short stories will have great meaning to those who love animals and mane give some insight to those who may not feel a strong connection to animals. These stories really show a realistic view on both human world and animal world. If your looking for something light and fun I suggest maybe going elsewhere because this set of stories will speak to you in a completely different light. The author definitely captured me from beginning to end though and as an animal lover I truly appreciate the insight this author put into this book. Four stars and highly recommended!

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon. I love holiday stories. There’s just something about losing myself in some sweet stories when the world gets to be too much. Each of the stories in this set pulled at everyone of my heartstrings and I loved every minute of it. I’d say my favorite was probably Christmas kiss: but only for the Holidays. I just found myself completely hooked on that story but trust me each one is very easy to love. Each has characters you can’t help but connect with and root for. Each is well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I’m so glad I found this set of stories and could get lost in its pages for a while.

Fake Fiancé by Amy Mckinley was a really great read! While kind of predictable, this book was very enthralling in its story and characters. You kind of get two stories in one with this sweet romance, and it’s definitely a great one to read. I was instantly captures from the beginning, and it was hard to put down. The story was very well written, I got lost in the pages so often. The characters were great and I felt like I was right there in Italy with them all. This was not my first read from Mckinley, and it definitely did not disappoint. I highly recommend this novel!

HUNTED (HUNTED series Book 1) by Sarah Biglow & Molly Zenk – Review by Lisa Helmick

HuntedHunted by Sarah Biglow
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a different look on vampires. Well a few of them anyway. The characters are plentiful and Edith is not a typical vampire. She lost her fiancée and has always kept an eye out for his family. Years later she gets a chance…an unbelievable chance but will she take it. It means doing something she never thought she would do. Darren has lost his parents to vampires. He dislikes them and became a Hunter. I think he was shocked meeting Edith and it left him feeling strange.

There is a lot of movement and action. But sadly there isn’t an ending. So there must be a second book in the works. It might be a soft conclusion but not a happy ever after. In fact, in the epilogue is where the title came from.

Overall it’s an okay story. It’s just not what I was expecting. I liked Edith and Darren. They are complete opposites. I just didn’t get any *feelings* from them. Or really any other characters.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This novel kicks off a new Jake Wolfe series from Mark Nolan. I loved how this book literally hits you in the face with action from the very beginning and keeps you on the edge of your seat until that very last chapter. I felt like I got so much with this novel and I am super excited that there will be more to come in the series with these characters.

This starts off with Jake Wolfe, a military vet who is working as a photojournalist in the prime of his days. At the moment he is following a hot lead on a story that will thrust him into the life of a high ranking lawyer. His goal is to simply dig up some details for his story and instead witnesses the lawyers murder! From there the ride is wild and full of twists and turns that are completely unpredictable. I can’t wait to get my hands on book two!
