High Flyer (Verdant String, #4)High Flyer by Michelle Diener
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this science fiction story. It is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her. This is a well written story that has characters that bring the story to life. They made the story feel real and easy to read. I had no issues connecting with them. This is an engaging story that kept me turning pages to the end. It is full of action and has a lot going on throughout. The author has written it in a way that it was easy to keep up with and understand. The heroine Hana is such a great character. She is kind of stand offish at first but her character really opens up throughout the story. It was great watching her grow. Her and Iver has known each other for awhile, I enjoyed watching their relationship grow. Their chemistry is great. I highly recommend this book. It made a great afternoon read!

This is a sweet story that I really enjoyed. This is one of my favorites by this author for sure. I enjoyed being pulled into the story right from the beginning.

Just One Song (Just One… Book 2)
By Lynn Stevens
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the book Just One Song (Just One… Book 2) by Lynn Stevens. It is a story that once I started reading it, I was hooked. I loved reading about the characters of Cami and Dylan. Cami is a young woman who knows what she wants. She wants to sing and be the next musical sensation. She believes she will only gain from an experience in working with the amazing performer Hank Walker. She soon finds herself attracted to Hank’s son Dylan as he helps her with her dreams. Dylan is a young man that finds Cami very attractive. Something is holding him back. Read this story to find out what happens to Cami and Dylan. This is an emotional story that had my emotions going up and down like a rollercoaster. There are conflicted emotions, hurt feelings, and a relationship that is trying to be born. There are also additional characters introduced. They each have their part to play in the story and I enjoyed reading about their interactions with Dylan and Cami. The author does an amazing job of making both the storyline and the characters come alive on the pages. Don’t miss out on an entertaining story that you won’t want to stop reading until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

I loved reading the book High Flyer (Verdant String) by Michelle Diener. It is a wonderful science fiction novel that I found hard to put down once I started it. The story has action, danger, and romance. I loved the characters of Hana and Iver. Hana is a strong, intelligent, and independent woman. She loves her work and is always up for a challenge. She is not looking for a relationship. Iver feels that he has his position by default. The one thing that he wants in his life is Hana. Does Hana have an attraction to Iver too? What will happen when they are placed in a situation where they must keep on the run to survive? Read this book to find out. This is a story that takes off from the beginning and doesn’t stop until the final page. There is never a dull moment. Hana and Iver find themselves on the run. I grew to care about what happens to Hana and Iver with each chapter that I read. They are characters that I could root for their success against those who have a selfish agenda. The author does an amazing job of making both the storyline and the characters come to life. I felt like I was right there with them. Don’t miss out on a story that is exciting and entertaining to read. I highly recommend it.

Composed (An Ash Park Novel Book 8) by Meghan O’Flynn – Review by Karyn Taylor

Composed: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 8)Composed: An Ash Park Novel by Meghan O’Flynn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Composed is the 8th book in the Ash Park series by Meghan O’Flynn. This is a series set around police detective Edward Petrosky. Each book is written as a standalone and contains one complete story so can be read in any order. I have not read all the books in the series so far but have loved the ones that I have read and this one was no exception.
Meghan O’Flynn sure knows how to write a detailed, intricate storyline that has so many twists and turns and has you gripped from the very beginning and does not let you go. Composed is dark and gritty and I absolutely loved it. Petrosky is an old school detective and I love being inside his head and seeing just what goes through his mind, how he thinks through his cases and gets his ideas. One thing I loved about this book was the camaraderie between him and his partner Jackson. They are both so in tune with what the other is thinking and the banter between them is so entertaining.
In addition to the case that Petrosky is working on, I loved reading about his own personal demons that he is working through as this adds a great deal to the story and gives us more insight into his character.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and look forward to seeing what Meghan O’Flynn has in store for Petrosky next.

Build-A-Book Workshop (The Literary Handyman Book 2) by Danielle Ackley-McPhail is a handy guide for anyone looking at taking the self-publishing route and who wants to make sure they present a polished piece of work.

It includes helpful insights, as well as things to avoid garnered from the author’s own publishing journey. The author streamlines and simplifies what could otherwise be an intimidating process for many.
I recommend this to any new author who may not know where to begin in book designing and layout. This is definitely a great starting point- a quick and easy read that makes the whole process seem much less daunting.

Thank you, Danielle Ackley-McPhail!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

EverMarked by AJ Eversley a fast-paced four-star read. This is number one in the EverMarked series and shows great promise. This is one that you need to focus on, there seemed to be a lot going on and lots of characters to keep track of, but it kept you hooked and the author has fantastic attention to detail. Sienna and Jayla tell the story and they tell a great story, but there are other characters who play important parts in the story and what a story. As you get deeper into the chapters you get deeper into the story and it just gets deep. This is a great story and with a little more polish and a little less going on all at the same time at points it would make a great five-star read. I for one can’t wait for the next instalment.

Lucky at Love (Some guys just never give up) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Angela Hayes

Lucky at Love: Some Guys Just Never Give Up...Lucky at Love: Some Guys Just Never Give Up… by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

 

“It’s a take on the notion of being addicted to love.” As soon as I saw Judith’s reaction, I knew I was out on a limb. I didn’t want to give her the impression this was to be a soppy, romantic, swept-off-one’s-feet piece. True, I did intend the story to be about love, or what passed for love in some people’s minds. But it was the downside of romance that I was really angling for. I wanted to explore the hypothesis that some people are actually obsessed with falling in love, literally hooked on the thrill of new romance. I cleared my throat and pressed on. ”

 

Lucky at Love: Some Guys Just Never Give Up… is another enthralling read by Cynthia Hamilton. I know I keep raving about Ms. Hamilton’s books and how much I love her writing- but I can’t help it, she really does know how to tell a captivating story and she never fails to impress me.
This is another book of hers that I really wasn’t sure about, going into it- I thought it would be a nice and easy read. So, I was really surprised, very early on, by just how fantastic it really was. I definitely didn’t expect to love it quite as much as I did- and I certainly didn’t expect to become so completely invested in the characters as the story progressed.
I really want to go on and on about all the elements of the story that I loved- but I think that by giving you those details might spoil the story for you. I think the blurb gives enough of an idea of what to expect but keeping enough back to make this a very intriguing read.
This seemingly simplistic story hides a more richly textured, character driven plot that explores so many notions such as human nature, connection, love, romance, emotion, and so much more.
A true Pearl of a story!

Thank you, Cynthia Hamilton!

EverMarked (EverMarked Series #1) by AJ Eversley

EverMarked is like The Hunger Games, but a thousand times better. Eversley has really outdone herself with this book and I can’t wait for the next EverMarked Series book.

Sienna, a Marked Kid, isn’t a normal kid. She isn’t human, but she’s not a Carbon. She’s a mixture. Things aren’t as she thought and it’s getting hard for her. The quote I chose for Sienna is: “But that doesn’t make sense. What happens when we get out of here? Will they still fear us?”

Jayla, a Watcher, finds herself in the one place she doesn’t want to be. She helps Sienna and Theo out when they find themselves in a tight spot. When things get bad Jayla turns to Cas. The quote I chose for Jayla is: “I haven’t forgotten, Em. I know very well what our job is, and that’s why I say we wait.”

This book is fantastic and I highly recommend it. Two girls, both afraid of the same thing.

The three main characters, Priscilla, Phil, & Tobias, meet in a diner in Manhattan. Each of them have different life experiences and issues they are struggling with and this chance meeting starts their healing process. There were some parts that seem to take it slow, which make it a little hard to keep reading but it didn’t make me stop.

I have read several books by Ms. Hamilton. I love how she creates characters who are interesting, believeable, and hook you into the story because you can connect with them so well.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

Finders Reapers is the fourth book in the New Orleans Nocturnes series by Carrie Pulkinen. As expected, this is another fantastic, fun, sexy, and humorous Paranormal Romance from Ms. Pulkinen. I have really been enjoying my time exploring the New Orleans Nocturnes “world”, with each new book adding more depth and dimension to the series as a whole.
Having met both Asher and Jasmine previously in the series, I was really excited to get my hands on their story. Hello! Grim Reaper and Necromancer story- I knew it was going to be brilliant the moment I began.
As I have said previously, this series just seems to get better with each new instalment- with Ms. Pulkinen upping the ante with each new release- delivering a captivating, original, sexy, fun, and humorous take on New Orleans’ paranormal life- and giving each book its own unique identity in the wonderful world she’s crafted.
This a paranormal romance done brilliantly- with fantasy, ghosts, secrets, magic, drama, intrigue, danger, the supernatural, paranormal activity, demons, suspense, emotion, pandemonium, different realms, mystery, adventure, action, and lots of humour- making for quite a touching, magical, mysterious and spellbinding ride.
When the Grim Reaper takes a break to regroup, all hell breaks loose- bringing mayhem and chaos in its wake. Asher’s job just got so much more complicated. But with one powerful, dangerous, and wily ghost keeping him from completing his mission, Asher is going to need some help if he’s to set things right before it’s all too late. A powerful necromancer is just what he needs- but adding Jasmine to the already combustible mix brings its own set of complications. Get set for the sparks to fly, in more ways than one!!!
I can’t wait for another New Orleans Nocturnes story- as I am definitely not ready to say goodbye yet, with so many more characters that I’d like to know more about.
Fantastic!!

Thank you, Ms. Pulkinen!

Road Tripped (Satan's Devils MC Utah #1)Road Tripped by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series just keeps getting better!

After Road’s competing days are over, he is in quite the funk. To get him out of, Drummer sends him on a mission to go check out the Utah chapter. Drummer feels that something isn’t right and he wants Road to investigate. While Road clears his head on the ride, he finds it all messed up again when things aren’t as they seem in Utah. While they appear as a normal (and that’s a relative term) Satan’s Devils MC at first glance…inside things are definitely different. He can’t get word to Drummer and he begins to wonder if he will even make it back home.

While this takes a different route in terms of storyline from the other books in the series…it is still amazing! There is so much going on and it had me wondering what was going to happen next. It is definitely not predictable…and I loved that! Once again, can’t wait to see where this series goes next!

The book was longer than I anticipated but kept my attention well. It was easy to read and a nice story to relax with at night.

Secure Desire by R. L. Dunn is not your typical romance story. R. L. Dunn wrote characters that were believable and lovable. This story takes you on a journey with Chase and Cassie. Be prepared because it is a roller coaster ride but it is worth all the emotions that come along with the story. When you are a soldier like Chase and have some lingering feel about your tour in Afghanistan your everyday life seems so different. Chase came back to get in the security business with his brother and did not expect to run into his love interest, Cassie from 6 years ago. A lot has happened in the six-year in both of their lives.

I had to go and read Composed, An Ask Park Novel because I read all of the other books. Meghan O’Flynn does an amazing job grabbing me from page one until the last word. Her plotlines often mirror-like a roller coaster. It has twists and turns that keep you on your toes. It is very important that you keep your eyes and mind focused on the book. Meghan gives enough clues to see what is coming. I know I had to reread parts of the same page because I missed a clue. Her characters are important. They have very important roles in the book. I highly recommend you read the other stories first so that you will understand the character development. In this story, Petrosky is back and he is trying to find a killer. There may be a serial killer on the loose. Has Petrosky met his match? Will he find the killer and protect who he thinks is the next one to be killed? I highly recommend this story to find out the answers to these questions and more.

The story Remember My Name (Remember My Name Series Book 1) by Laurencia Hoffman is a Romantic Suspense book. It is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning. The main characters in the story are Shane Coulter and Callan Reid. Shane is a character that I could empathize with. He hides his true self and the darkness by pushing everyone that he loves and that loves him away. He is in such pain that it hurt my heart to read about how he sees and feels about himself. Callan is a man that wants to help Shane and refuses to leave even when Shane tells him to go. He is a kind soul who doesn’t understand why Shane acts the way that he does. This is an emotional story and I found my emotions going up and down the enter time I was reading it. The book has heartbreaking moments. It also gives you a front seat view of Shane’s behavior and how he feels about himself. Don’t miss out on a story that includes romance, suspense, and mysterious happenings.

Remember My NameRemember My Name by Laurencia Hoffman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a MM romance and thriller, and I found Shane and Callan to be strong characters that really held the story together. Shane Coulter is hiding some dark and twisted secrets and the only person who ever saw beyond his smart mouth and abrasive attitude to the vulnerability beneath was Callan Reid, his first love. Callan is convinced that Shane’s tough image is just that, and believing that he has suffered badly in his past Callan wants to uncover the truth. However Shane would rather the past stayed in the past and that his secrets remain secrets. In digging up Shane’s past Callan unwittingly brings danger into both their lives as there are people who are willing to kill to prevent Shane’s truths coming out.
This was a story about secrets and how the past affects the present and future, but it was also about first love. Shane and Callan were great characters as they were likeable and relatable but also realistic with their flaws. The storyline flowed well and the plot had enough drama and twists in it that it kept me gripped from beginning to end. The author really made me feel immersed in Shane and Callan’s story and I found myself thinking about the characters long after I had finished the book.
