The Trouble With Paradise (A Madeline Dawkins Mystery Book 4) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Angela Shirley

The Trouble with Paradise (Madeline Dawkins #4)The Trouble with Paradise by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When two husbands die and are classed as suicides but the widows aren’t convinced, so will the budding detectives solve the mystery.

The story takes place four months after the last book and the two detectives take on the cases of two wealthy men who have been found dead, one wife has been charged with one of the murders and is currently in jail but the other wife is adamant that her husband was murdered so Madeline and Mike start investigating.

As the story weaves through the book you get drawn into the mystery as you delve into the world of these two investigators. There are some shocking twists and the way the story has layers within the book you are guessing as you turn the pages to book to solve the mysteries.

I love this series and I would recommend reading the the other books first, although this story is a stand alone story there are other elements to the history of the main characters which weave through the first three books. I love the well developed main characters and the thriller aspect of the stories makes for a great read. I can’t wait to read the next installment and see how these two characters develop in the future.

Better Than Goodbye (Venture Book 1)Better Than Goodbye by Kinney Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The first chapter of this book started so silly, then as it goes, it gets a little emotional. I love that in a book, the best first chapter I have had the pleasure to read in a while.

I really like the way this book was put together and how the past and the present is intermingled. Following Kent and Amanda with the struggles they have growing up and following their dreams, making the hard choices as they become adults has been so intriguing to me, I hated to put the book down.

Knowing when to follow your dreams and lift up those around you to help them pursue their own is a tough line to walk, and this book showcased that perfectly.

This is book 1 and I can’t wait to see what comes of any that follow.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love love love this book! Well all except that ending! I need to know what happens! The author did an amazing job with this story and these characters. The story moves along nicely. There is quite a bit of fluff the cements the relationship and feelings of these two characters. Speaking of characters..have you met Aria and Aiden? They are simply lovely to get to know and watch their relationship blossom. I can really feel the connection between Aria and Aiden. They just sizzle right off the pages. The way her calls her “Goddess” gives me heart palpitations. I also enjoy the connection the band members have with members. The jokes and playing around really helped this become more personable.

This is my first book by this author. It will not be my last! Because you know…I want to know what happens. I am not a fan of a cliffhanger books. But I do make an exception every once in a while. I hope for more in this series ( because these characters are solid on their own) but no more cliffhangers.

If you like music and love a good romance, pick this up immediately. The MCs has fantastic chemistry and I loved their interactions from their beginning.

Better Than Goodbye (Venture Book 1)Better Than Goodbye by Kinney Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a romance book with enough angst to keep you reading but enough romance to make it real. Amanda moves to California to follow her dream, leaving behind Kent. Kent is the man who she has loved forever, but her dreams are calling her elsewhere. When the show she is working on brings her back into Kent’s life, they need to determine if they can make it work if it is better to say goodbye forever.
I found myself invested in these characters from early on. Amanda is relatable and I was pulling for her. Kent has some abandonment issues from when he was younger, and my heart felt for him as well. There were times when I wished that I had a little more backstory…but it doesn’t take away from the story being told. There is some push and pull along the way to keep it angsty and wondering if they will be able to work through their issues or not. I enjoyed this book and this is an author I would definitely read again.

This book had me hooked from the start and I couldn’t put it down until I got to the end. I have loved this series since the first book and every book just got that much better. It is my suggestion that you read these books in order for the best experience and you will get to know Neve and Micah that much better. Neve and Micah are two very strong people and they have been through so much to be together and in this book they want to fight back. What will happen when they do? There were unexpected twists and turns in this story. The author did an exceptional job making me feel like I was right there in the story. I found this book to be entertaining, heartbreaking, emotional, and hopeful. I highly recommend this book you won’t want to miss out on this wonderful book and series.

Flicker to FIre by Amanda Marin is the third and final book in the Crimson Sash series. I highly recommend reading the books in order because the story lines flow from the beginning to the end of the series. This book is a great conclusion to this series. Neve and Micah are operatives for Sans Murs and are trying to create a better world. The problem gets explosive with the conflicts gaining steam. Will they be able to extinguish the fire before it’s too late?
I have enjoyed the development of Neve and Micah through the series and how they have grown in people with strong beliefs and loyalties. The setting is dystopian with a twist of fantasy but is not so unrealistic to be relatable. I have enjoyed this series and was happy with how the series was ended. I look forward to reading more from Amanda Marin in the future.

I loved reading the book Secure Desire (Chase Security Series Book 1) by R.L. Dunn. It is a story that pulled me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. It is a thriller that had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I loved reading about the characters of Chase and Cassie. Cassie is an intelligent, strong, and independent woman. She is an FBI agent and does her job well. She is haunted by a past in which she feels she will never be free. Chase is handsome, charming, and the owner of a private security company. He is very attracted to Cassie. He also finds out that she has enemies that will do anything to get rid of Cassie. Will Chase be able to keep Cassie out of danger? Will he be able to convince her of the deep connection he feels for her? Read this book to find out. This is an amazing story that once starts only has one speed, full-ahead. It takes you on an unforgettable journey. It also has many additional characters that are helpful to Cassie and Chase. They would do anything to assist them. Then some have their evil agenda and will do anything to see that Cassie doesn’t survive. This is a book that is written in such a way that I felt like I was right there with the characters. Don’t miss out on an exciting, suspenseful, and thrilling story. I highly recommend it.

I enjoyed reading the book On With the Butter! Spread More Living onto Everyday Life by Heidi Herman. It is a wonderful book that helps you to look at life in different ways. In it are personal experiences of both the author and family that are inspirational and a joy to read about. The book challenged me and my way of thinking about life and how l live it. I enjoyed the quotes that the author put at the beginning of the chapters as well as the lists of ways to implement changes that each chapter talked about. I normally don’t read a lot of self-help books however the way that that the book is written had me feeling like I was talking to a friend who wants to share the joys of how the information has assisted her and how it can help me. Don’t miss out on an amazing book that will keep your interest until the final page. I know I can’t wait to try the examples provided within the book. I would highly recommend reading it.

This is a full length Romantic Novel. Written around truth and a good bottle of wine.

This is Tyler Prentice and Gianna Lucchia’s story. Tyler has grown his grapes to perfection. Now he needs someone to help him get the word out. When he finds Wellington Advertising, who also employs his college buddy. But when Gianna shows up everything twists and turns far better than he could imagine. Sparks fly, just not the Sparks I imagined. This is a Must Read! See if the right choices are made. Will there be a HEA?

Well Done Nicole Flockton! I so enjoyed reading Tyler and Gianna’s Story. This is a fast paced story, I could not put it down. There were many feelings in the story, laughing, crying and at one point I wanted to step in and fight for this couple. The characters are strong, independent, and full of life. Nicole Flockton wrote a story, I will remember for a long time. I also hope the next one comes soon. Well Done!

Better Than Goodbye (Venture #1) by Kinney Scott

This is the first in the Venture Series and I can’t wait to see what happens next. Mrs. Scott has a new fan and I will definitely be on the lookout for more of her work.

Kent, the boy who has no mom, has finally grown up. He’s doing what he loves, but doesn’t realize he’s forgetting something. Or someone. When the time comes the person he loves comes back into his life. The quote I choose for Kent is: “The drive up here gave me time to think about us. Seeing you again confirmed one thing—all the miles and months apart haven’t altered how I feel about you. Amanda, absolutely nothing will change how much I love you.”

Amanda, the girl who’s been in love with Kent, is finally getting her dream. Kent Thomas. When things don’t work out she leaves. When she comes back she isn’t sure what she’ll find. The quote I choose for Amanda is: “Not necessarily. Not if what Kent really needs is closure . After the way I left, I think he deserves something better than goodbye.”

I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves a good romance. You might need tissues and you may throw book/device fair warning.

Flicker to Fire (Crimson Sash, #3)Flicker to Fire by Amanda Marin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Flicker to Fire, is book three in Amanda Marin’s ‘Crimson Sash’ series. It continues the story of Neve Hall and Micah Ward which began in the first book, ‘North to Nara’ and continued in ‘Sky to Sea’.This is a Young Adult dystopian fantasy series set in a dystopian world with two waring factions the ‘New Republic’ and the ‘Nation’. The couple find themselves in Kébec Village, the refugee centre, and as Sans Murs operatives they begin documenting all of the the Nation’s human rights violation cases as the escapees who arrive at the centre tell them of their stories. However the border wall separating the two factions is crumbling and with it the safety it provides. Meanwhile Isla Pryce’s mission to purge the Nation of Sufferers is just getting started and as Micah has been unfaithful to his vows he is at risk from the vicious Inquisition Board. When mysterious Blythe Thatcher enters the village having been on the run from Pryce, Neve believes she can help Sans Murs further its cause, and help rid the Nation of its awful Suffering system. Once the Nation uncovers their plan, however, the warring factions struggle which started as a flicker quickly turns to fire. Neve and Micah are the only ones who can extinguish the flame but it will be dangerous. No spoilers, I recommend you read the book and the two previous novels in this series.
This is a well written book with a solid storyline, great characters and it moves along at a fast pace. I was gripped from page one and found myself totally immersed in the dystopian world Marin has created, thanks to her amazing world building. Neve and Micah are a great couple who ultimately just want to be together and live in a safe place peacefully. I found the couple likeable, realistic and with a ‘normal’ relationship amidst this dystopian world. I was cheering them on throughout the book and I really cared about their outcome. Blythe was a fascinating new character. Marin has a way of writing and describing the characters that makes you as the reader really get to know them and care for them.

From the minute I picked up the book I was excited to see how it would end.
The author has created a fantastic world with such lasting characters in them. The story was exciting and had a bit everything you could want in it. I thoroughly enjoyed this whole series and would definitely recommend it.

REBECCA STEELE FINDING THE DREAM (REBECCA STEELE SERIES) Book 2 by Joanne Patterson
4 out of 5 stars
Western Romances are very much a hit or miss for me. I feel that the genre has died and that they can often be replaced with the much more exciting world of YA, or Sci-Fi, however, I can eat my words when it comes to the writings of Patterson. Patterson brings the world of Western Romance back to life. The characters of both Becky and Emily warm the heart in such a way that even the darkest soul can feel the hearth burning. Becky is back in the world and adventuring on her own, with Emily there to support everything that she does and laughs along the way.
This is a quick read, which I really appreciate, as I rarely have the luxury to sit and indulge in a long read anymore and the chapters were quick and efficient with details and information. Lovers of young adult, women empowerment and coming of age will love this book. 4 out of 5 stars.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Love Song (A Friends-to-Lovers Rock and Roll Romantic Suspense) by K.G Fletcher is another wonderfully woven and entirely captivating story. I say this repeatedly, but Ms. Fletcher never fails to deliver a story that captures my heart and mind, every single time. I love her warm, sexy, almost lyrical writing style- it makes reading her books such a pleasure. The way she wove quite an intense and suspenseful story in and around a sweet romance was really clever- and definitely gave this book an extra zing. As expected, the story is sexy and romantic, with intense moments, edge of your seat suspense, tension, sparks, emotion, and drama- and of course let’s not forget about the music.
Well worth the read!

Thank you, Ms. Fletcher!

I didn’t like this book as much as I’d hoped, as I have a little bit of a love affair with Scotland. However, the murder mystery itself was well-woven and detailed. The plot was a bit slow due to the imbalance between dialogue and narration. I still enjoyed the historical aspects and descriptions of Scotland. The accuracy and attention paid to the language and accents of the time also added to the realness of the story.

There is nothing like a good Romance read, one that will whisk you away with the storyline and have you utterly captivated with the characters, and make you believe you are there alongside them.

I was captivated by the characters and their story. This read was fast paced, had all the feels and made me read it in one sitting. You couldn’t help but route for these characters for them to find happiness and their HEA. You really do fall for the characters in this read, get swept away and left wanting more.

This has been one series that I have loved and enjoyed from the first book. I highly suggest reading all the books in this series to help you see where the characters are coming from. This author has continued to impress me with books that pull me into a suspenseful-mystery from the beginning. They are engaging and the characters make the story easy to read. This book is no different. It is fast paced and a page turner. I had no problems connecting to the characters as they brought the story to life. Petrosky is back in another page turner. In this book not only is he fighting himself but one of the most dangerous types of killer. A woman is murdered but when a second woman is killed, he starts to wonder if there is a copycat. But when his boss is kidnapped the story takes on a new meaning for him. When he refuses to do what the kidnapper wants, he is faced with having only one chance to find the killer before he loses the one person who has been there for him. Will this case wake or silence his demons? You don’t want to miss this book and the twists and turns that will leave you turning pages to the end. I lost track of time with this book and felt I was right there. I highly recommend this book and this author.

I have loved loved loved this series. I already can not wait to read them all again. I didn’t know how much I loved the dystopian genre until picking these up. I don’t advise reading them out of order or as stand alones, the story is so heartbreakingly beautiful from start to finish that you would not be getting the full impact without reading them all.

I hate that this series is over but I love that it is because it is perfect the way it stands. This 3rd part had me all messed up, my emotions were all over the place and thinking I had things all figured out so many times and being wrong as many times made this part a slight favorite of the 3. I felt while reading like I knew these characters, felt like I was standing right beside them during this entire journey. I will not soon forget them and I already miss them!

I love the way this author tells a story, you find yourself totally immersed and real life just doesn’t come into play, I could not put it down and lost a few hours sleep to finish it.

Do yourself a favor and one click all 3 of these books that give you 1 story that I know you’ll want to read again and again!

I enjoyed this story. This is a story of chance meeting and fate stepping in. This is one of my favorite stories from this author. I found this story to be well written with characters that make the story easy to read and engaging. This is a story about three people who all live in New York and end up meeting each other at Frank’s Diner. How will fate interfere in each of their lives? I enjoyed how they each have their own story but yet fate brought them together for a reason. I also enjoyed watching them grow throughout the story and become the strong characters they are.

One thing I enjoy about this author is how I am pulled into the story right from the beginning and this book is no different. This is a well written story that has characters that bring the story to life. I had no issues connecting to them. This is a story about Etain. She grew up with the stories and what she thought were fairy tales about Alamir. In truth these stories were more of a teaching for her destiny. She was taken in by a clan after an assassin took her family from her. Now she is determined to find the demon. Will one encounter mean life or death for her? I enjoyed her character alot. She is a strong character that made the story entertaining and easy to read. This is a dark fantasy that I highly recommend.
