Shooting Star (Back Door Records 1)Shooting Star by Xana Jordan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Shooting Star is the first book in the Back Door Records by Xana Jordan. It is a Rockstar romance with music, drama, chemistry, connection, love, romance, and plenty of emotion. This may have been my first Xana Jordan book, but it definitely won’t be my last.
Music agent Aiden doesn’t realise that by holding auditions for an opening act for his band that he is about to have his world rocked, in more ways than one. Aria voice is mesmerising and she’s exactly what he is looking for- on many levels. With such an intense chemistry between them, there’s no denying their connection. I don’t want to give too much away and spoil the story for you. But, this book really has everything you could want in a great Rockstar romance- all the emotion, banter, romance, wonderful characters, and dramatic developments- all help to bring this story come alive.
The way this story ended left me wanting more- in a good way- so now I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.
Bring on Book #2!!!

Thank you, Xana Jordan!

The Abduction of Sarah Tarbell: As Her Soul RemembersThe Abduction of Sarah Tarbell: As Her Soul Remembers by Stuart Ledwith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a completely different book than anything I have ever read. It is intense, heart breaking and at times difficult to grasp. It is written in the form of a person’s soul communicating her story to the author. The story takes place in 1700s where Sarah, along with her brothers, were kidnapped by the Mohawk Indians when they were children. Sarah, is adopted by a Mohawkan family, and later sold to a French family. She ironically falls in love with her own captor. Later, she converts into a nun and becomes a healer to the same Mohawkan families. This entire book was foreign to me, it took me a while to understand it. Perhaps people who knew this history before can do more justice to the book. It had a complex emotional story and the narration was also quite different. Overall, it was a good read.

I love a good mystery and Ranew is certainly proving his talent knows no bounds as this series unfolds. I love the main characters – Farlow stumbles into another situation that is filled with intrigue and riveting detail. Cowboy is a fantastic character and one that filled every page he graced. I haven’t had a good mystery in my hands in a while and this is one book and series I will gladly pick up and read again very soon!

I’m not quite sure how I hadn’t picked up this book from Fletcher before now. But I am SO thankful it found it’s way into my greedy hands. Fletcher is extremely talented with her words and storylines, always painting extremely relatable characters that somehow relate to the reader. I adored Casey and Sam and from the onset was cheering them on, hoping they would find a way. Add in the layer of intrigue with drama in their lives and this complex story kept me guessing at every turn. Fletcher holds the keys to my book loving heart and will always be a one click for me!

This book was interesting. I generally don’t do as well with historical contexts, but it was interesting to read this story. The abduction scene was a bit intense and the book overall reminded me of a documentary. I am still a little confused as to whether or not this is a true story. However, overall the book had a smooth flow and unlike anything I have read before.

Shooting Star (Back Door Records #1) by Xana Jordan

Wow, is all I’ve really got to say about this book. Xana Jordan has really outdone herself with this. I’m looking forward to the next book in the Back Door Records Series.

Aiden, a band manager, has to find another band to take over an opening act. Sifting through bands, one catches his eye. Blue Venus. The quote I choose for Aiden is: “I want to wake up with you. Hold you in my arms. Fall asleep with my body wrapped around yours. See my goddess when I first open my eyes.”

Aria, lead singer of Blue Venus, doesn’t expect to find love. The band doesn’t expect to go on tour so soon, but when they’re called up to the plate. What happens when something tragic happens? The quote I choose for Aria is: “I can’t imagine going back and forth as much as you do. That would be hard for me.”

This was a very good book, but I warn you to grab a box or two of tissues. Xana has officially gained herself a new fan.

Drawn to HimDrawn to Him by Tammy Mannersly
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Drawn to Him is a wonderfully written romantic novel by Tammy Mannersly. Erica Townsend is the town’s art teacher. She owns an art store where she also teaches classes. She finds herself in the office of one of the most eligible bachelors of the town after a nasty spill in her shop. Little did Erica know, Dr. Matthew Garrick was going to turn her world upside down. She has sworn off love and finding the one to focus on her and her passion, but could Matt be the exception? Matt is determined to prove to Erica that love doesn’t have to ruin lives. He wishes so badly that Erica would just take a chance on him, but a secret admirer of Matt’s threatens to ruin all the progress Matt has made so far. The characters in this novel were great and the author did such an amazing job bringing them to life. I loved the small town feel of where Erica and Matt live, where everyone knows everyone and looks out for each other – most of the time. The romance between Erica and Matt is the perfect blend of sweet and steamy, which made the novel so enjoyable to read. I highly recommend this novel and look forward to reading other novels by this author.

I enjoyed this fairytale romance story. This is not my first story by this author but it is my favorite of hers yet. This is a story about a wedding dress that was sent to Jamie from her great-grandmother. There are a couple of problems with this. First Jamie has no intention of getting married and second the dress is supposed to be enchanted. She tries the dress on, will she change her mind? After meeting Caleb will he change her mind? The characters made the story easy to read and entertaining. They brought the story to life and left me turning pages fast. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what fate has instore for Jamie and this supposed enchanted wedding dress.

Better Than Goodbye by Kinney Scott is the first book in the Venture series. This is a second chance romance story that has the characters on a rollercoaster from the word go. I liked from the start how realistic and engaging I found the story to be, even when there were times, I wanted it to have a little more depth. It is a story that I could easily envision as I was reading it.
The characters were interesting to read about. I knew that I wanted them to find way to make things work as I liked both of them. They had both been through a lot and it felt right that they should be together.
This author is one of those that always manages to create a great story with strong characters to back it up with. I am looking forward to reading the rest of this series!

I loved reading the book House of Illusions by Pippa J. Frost. It is a fantasy story that pulled me in and didn’t let me go until the final page. I found myself lost in the pages and not wanting to put the book down. I loved reading about the characters of Valentina and Nisse. I grew to care about what happens to them with each chapter that I read. Other additional characters are also enjoyable to read about and some who are only out for themselves with their evil agenda. The author does a wonderful job in world-building and I felt like I was right there with the characters. This is a story that includes danger, a bit of romance, and a curse. The words and characters come alive from the pages and I found myself turning pages to find out what happens next. I just had to know how it all turns out. Don’t miss out on an intriguing and entertaining book that should be added to the top of your TBR list of stories. I highly recommend it.

I have really enjoyed this series so far and so glad that I decided to give up a go when I saw the first book being recommend. Flicker to fire was a fantastic read and definitely my favourite out of the series (the others are great too)! I have taken Neve and Micah into my heart and I have loved reading about them. The author has really brought their story to life over this series. There was also a new character introduced into the story too which was great. A few unexpected twists and turns too made this story really difficult to put down at times I wanted to keep reading to find out just what was going to happen.
I definitely recommend that this series is read in order and I will definitely be making sure I read more from this author again in the future.

Love Song (A friends-to-lovers rock and roll romantic suspense)Love Song by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love Song is an amazing friends to lovers romance by one of my favourite authors K.G. Fletcher. I first discovered K.G. Fletcher with the amazing Southern Promises series and have devoured everything she’s written since then and I’ve adored every single thing she’s written and Love Song is no different. I adored this book.
Where this book was a little different to some of Fletcher’s other work is that this book had a darker edge to it. As well as the awesome romance that she writes this book also had a thrilling element to it. The thrilling storyline has you on the edge of your seat and gasping in shock.
K.G. Fletcher sure knows how to write an awesome romance story that totally pulls at your heartstrings and she did this with Casey and Sam’s story. I absolutely adored both of these characters. Casey is a strong willed, independent woman and has a heart of gold. Sam is an absolute sweetheart and is the type of guy anyone would want as a friend. In addition to these 2 there was another character who, in my opinion, was a total scene stealer and that is GG, Casey’s adorable 3 year old niece. She is just the cutest, most adorable kid ever and your heart just melts and breaks when you understand how much she’s gone through in her short life.
I’d give this book more than 5 stars if I could.

This book is about Casey and Sam. Casey is a background vocalist for a band and Sam plays the drums. Casey gets a text that no one should ever get and she leaves but Sam could not let her go alone. He goes to help protect Casey and her sister.Will Sam be successful in helping Casey or will there be more trouble for Casey and her sister?

This book had an interesting cover with a single man with a cowboy hat walking into a town. It looked like it was right out of the midwest, or a modern ghost town. The story is unique and intriguing. Red Farlow walks into a cult following, Blue Magnolia. His client is in a heap of trouble with Blue Magnolia and wants help. Will Farlow be able to help or will have trouble coming at him. One thing I really enjoy is Red Farlow’s character. He is a strong male character who does not mind getting his hands dirty. The story line grabs me from the first page until the last page. I am interested in cult societies. It fascinates me that people are able to be easily controlled. Highly recommend this story to see what happens. Will Red find his match with Blue Magnolia? Can he help his client Will?

This was the first book I’ve read by Butler, but it is not going to be my last. This book had me sitting on the edge of my seat wanting more. I couldn’t put the book down until I was done. I still want more.

Karina is a lawyer and self made mystery solver. She is dating someone who has family money. What happens when she finds something she wasn’t supposed to see? Will her and the boyfriend survive? The quote I choose for Karina is: “No. I’m sure it wasn’t like that. As a matter of fact, I’m positive you put it on to make sure I wasn’t cheating on you. Like your past girlfriends. Is that what it was like?”

Patrick is a boy from money. He doesn’t follow in daddy’s footsteps, but past relationships mess with him. He wants to believe that Karina isn’t cheating, but does the unthinkable. The quote I choose for Patrick is: “I know. Our plans changed, but now that we’re here amidst your family, I simply can’t wait any longer. Karina, my love, will you marry me?”

I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves a good crime, mystery, and romance all rolled together. Butler had really brought these characters to life and I can’t wait for more.

This is a lovely romance with a suspense factor. The story is good. The characters were easy to like. Matt, the town doctor and eligible bachelor has found a women who interests him. At one time I thought he was A bit on the stalker side in his pursuit of her…but at least she didn’t think so. I do like that he is single minded enough though and doesn’t give up on what he wants.

These two live in a small town where everyone know everything about the townies. Rumors fly about and are shared with over a beer at the bar or shopping around town. This is what causes the secondary part of the story take over. I almost enjoyed this plot path better than the romance side.

Overall this is a good read. Not my fav by this author but still interesting enough to keep you engaged.

Drawn to him by Tammy Mannersly is a really enjoyable read. At the beginning of the book it seems like it will just be a romance novel however it quickly develops into a thriller. Erica has decided that a relationship is off the table, she is determined not to commit to another man until she meets the handsome local doctor. Matt is drawn to Erica and is determined to change her mind when it comes to romance. However, someone else in town has their sights set on Matt and is not going to let anyone get in their way. I really enjoyed the storyline of this book, I am intrigued by the secondary characters too, particularly the two best friends of the main characters, Seeley and Nate. I would recommend this book to lovers of romance and mystery. I loved the fact that this book kept me guessing right until the end.

Flicker to Fire: Crimson Sash: Book 3 by Amanda Marin is a YA dystopian fantasy story. It is a bittersweet tale and sadly the end of the series. It is both heart breaking and heart-warming and is engaging. You really need to start at the beginning with the first book and work your way up to this one. The story is wonderful and full of many new characters as well as those from the first two books. Amanda has done a wonderful job with the two leading characters who are beautifully written. The journey they have been on has been fraught with heart ache and I have never seen two people more deserving and who all they want is love and freedom and are finally fighting back.

It is a compelling puzzle that keeps us on our toes.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Slaughter of Leith Hall is a very interesting historic novel filled with mystery and suspense. I am a huge fan of outlander, and this book grabbed my interest as it is set in Scotland shortly after the Jacobites fight with the British.
John Leith is trying to gain social status by fighting for the British army shortly after the war between the Jacobites and the British. He is back in Scotland, and takes a fiercely determined and intuitive young man Charlie Rob under his wing. Charlie learns a lot shadowing Leith wherever he goes, and is content with his job, until one day, he is thrown in the middle of a murder mystery.
Charlie’s strong sense of justice urges him to get to the roots of the mystery and he finds himself obsessed with the murder.
It is a very gripping read and transports you into a different world. As I was turning one page after another, I could visualize Scotland and outlander before my eyes. It is a very interesting read which mixes fiction with historic facts together. The reader learns a lot about the Scottish history in this book.
A very good read, do not miss it.

I fell head over heels in love with Tyler and Gianna. At first I was slightly upset because of the way Gianna was being treated by her boss but as soon as her and Tyler met, I was back on board. I was worried that I wasn’t going to love Tyler as much because of the way he was, all about himself, in the first book. As I read on and got to know more of the reasons behind the way he was, I absolutely loved him. Throw in a spunky Italian from New York and we had a WINNER!!! I can not wait for Trey’s book!!!! I will just have to wait until I read that one to figure out which one of the Prentice brothers is my favorite, so far it is a close tie between Tate and Tyler!!!’

I think this is my favorite of the series so far. I’m sure I felt that way about the last one too but I really enjoyed every minute I spent reading this book. Madeline is a bad a&^ lady and she proves it time and time again.

The two cases Madeline and Mike have this time are almost impossible to figure out. Two women widowed. One is jail, one isn’t but they both want answers. If anyone can figure out what happened it’s Madeline and Mike.

Can we talk about Samir for just a second? How awesome is he? I feel he is under appreciated and no matter what Madeline does for him it will never be enough.

Can’t wait for the next book to come out so I can find out what happens next.
