Eagle of the Empire (Relic Hunters, #1)Eagle of the Empire by Martin Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4 ½ Stars

Let me start by saying that this book would make a great movie/TV series. It has everything you need to make it an enthralling read, and in turn, would transfer wonderfully well to the big screen. I can also see it being a great adventure game for PC, Xbox etc.
Eagle of the Empire is the first book in the Relic Hunters series by Martin Ferguson. It is a YA adventure- with mystery, danger, historical details, Relic Hunters, a quest for “treasure”, wonderful quirky characters, intrigue, and so much more. This has a bit of a young Indiana Jones feel to it, but with its own unique flair.
We meet Adam Hunter whose brother has mysteriously disappeared. His disappearance is tied to the fabled Eagle Standard of the Roman Ninth Legion, and is said to hold mythical powers. So, to free his brother, Adam and some quirky friends set off on a quest to find the relic. But they will need to move quickly, as they aren’t the only ones on the hunt for the mysterious relic. With an immortal and unhinged megalomaniac with sinister intentions to face off against, things will take an intense and dangerous turn. What happens makes for an exciting read- not only for young adults, but readers of all ages who enjoy a great adventure story!
On to book #2!

Thank you, Martin Ferguson!!

Grace's GhostsGrace’s Ghosts by Stephenie Wilson Peterson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a story about a twelve-year-old girl Grace, whose only friends are the spooky sweet ghosts including her cat, Midnight.
She starts enjoying the company of the ghosts till one day she finds out the reason why there are so many ghosts around her. There is a spell which was cast on these people three hundred years ago, which turned them into ghosts. Grace realizes that she has magical abilities and she is the one who is destined to break this spell. But breaking it comes with its own consequences, she will lose everyone who is near and dear to her, including Midnight.
Will Grace succeed in her effort forms the plot of the story. It is a sweet and a spooky story, especially meant for teens and middle grade students. When I read this book, I was reminded of this movie Casper, which is about a sweet little ghost which befriends a girl in the castle. This book is similar to the movie. It brings forth the emotions of Grace, her courage, determination and her turmoil all described really well. There are all types of ghosts, some friendly, some grumpy, and each character is unique. It is a fast paced, fun read with a spooky element in it. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Grace’s Ghosts was an excellent fast read. I sat down with this book and completely finished it within 1.5 hours. While this book is targeted towards young teenagers (middle school), as an adult, I loved this book too! Grace’s character building was excellent. You immediately feel connected to her and feel her emotions as they occur, as if they were your own. This story has many twists that leave you shocked until the very end. I would love to follow Grace on another adventure soon!

Curse of SeductionCurse of Seduction by C.R. Robertson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a book that sucked me into its world and did not let me go until the end. The world created was so vivid that I could see it in my mind and the characters were all great and I felt like I was a part of their world.

200 years ago, Ophelia bound herself to the four princes of Purgatory as a way to make herself more powerful. One of those princes was Ezekiel who is an incubus. For 200 years he has had his power stolen by Ophelia while she rages a war on all the realms of Purgatory. Enter Ilana…a half-vampire half-human warrior fighting to bring an end to Ophelia’s terror reign. However, one look between Ilana and Ezekiel sets into motion a series of events that were fated hundreds of years ago. Can Ophelia save Ezekiel from the curse without sacrificing herself? Why have those close to her been lying to her for years? You’ll have to read to find out the answers.

This is book covers one of the princes…so I am assuming future books will focus on the other princes. I found it hard to put the book down because I wanted to know what was going to happen. I will be looking forward to reading about the other princes in the future.

Alexander doesn’t disappoint – well, EVER – when looking for a steamy read. And the escapades continue at her adult resort called Spicetopia. This fifth installment in the series can be read as a stand-alone. But you won’t want to… the writing is just way too good. You’ll laugh and cry and threaten to throat punch. And you’ll definitely need a fan and a cold drink. But you will love this book and series. I know I do!

And you know you’ve got an amazing story when you love to hate the antagonist. She absolutely hands down made the story what it was.

I can’t go in to detail without just spoiling everything but your hopes will be high for an amazing ride just from the blurb copy. And you will be pleasantly surprised by the just amazing story that will unfold in front of you. Cannot wait to read more!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Curse of Seduction by C.R. Robertson was a great 5 star read.
I was pulled in right from the beginning.

We start out by learning about how Ezekiel was cursed. Every time he is with a woman the Blood queen takes a piece of their memory, which is why he tries to only be with them once so they don’t become like a corpse.

Ilana is part human and part vampire, she has been keeping a secret. She can’t feed from a human without getting sick to her stomach. She has been able to hide it so far without any issues, but how long will it be before someone finds out her secret? She has been crushing on Ezekiel for years, every time she sees him her body gets very needy. When Ezekiel and his brothers have to pick people to fight with them, she ends up being picked by Ezekiel. He is intrigued by her and want’s to learn more about her.

I can’t tell you how much I loved Ilana, she had me LOL so many times with her thoughts.
Every woman had that one man she’d give her left fang to spend a night with. Mine was Ezekiel, Prince of the Incubi. He was sex on legs.

Ezekiel, wow where to start with him, he was hot and he could rock a woman’s world in bed. Ilana was a strong character that could definitely hold her own in a fight. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story as well. It has been quite a while that I’ve read this genre and loved it. I can’t wait to read more from this author and series. 1-click and get started today.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed reading Grace’s Ghosts by Stephenie Wilson Peterson. A young girl named Grace has a best friend Midnight, who happens to be a ghost. All of Grace’s friends are ghosts but she really doesn’t mind, anything is better than the kids at school. Grace finds out that her town, Tansy, is under a curse. If Grace figures out how to break the curse she could risk losing Midnight and all of her friends. I loved this book because I feel that it could speak to a lot of kids around Grace’s age. Many kids have a hard time fitting in and Grace shows how to embrace being different. All the characters were really likable, especially Grace, the story line was well developed, and as an adult I was kept interested throughout the whole story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Curse of Seduction (Dark Princes of Purgatory Book 1) by CR Robertson is a fantastic paranormal story that had me engrossed in it from start to finish. If a paranormal story is done right and you can’t put it down because all you want to do is stay immersed in the story, then it means it was done right and CR did an amazing job. With magic and many different magical creatures, like succubus and incubus, witches and elves, lycan and vampires and more then you have a story that is easy to stay lost in. I was able to vividly picture every character and CR’s world building and wordsmithing allowed my imagination to go wild. It is seduction at its best and if this is purgatory sign me up.

Ilana has always been different but it is not until she meets the one in her fantasies that she finally starts to see what has been suppressed all these years.

Zek is unsure what to make of the strange creature before him. All he knows is she is not what she seems and somehow she may be the one to break the curse. Little did he know she may be more than anyone may realise.

I certainly look forward to the next books in the series and hope they are available now.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first book by this author, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. It brings romance and heat to the story that pulls you in right from the beginning. This story will show you that sometimes even if you are opposites that you can still find a common ground and build a relationship. I had no problems connecting to the characters. They brought the story to life with each page I turned. Sally thought she had it all until she lost her mom to cancer and Nolan thought the same thing but he lost someone he loved. They are complete opposites but they have such chemistry that they heat up the pages. What will fate have in store for these two? Is it possible that they can build a relationship and find happiness they both deserve? This is a great romance story that I would highly recommend. I can’t wait to read more from this author for sure.

5-Stars

This was an engaging, steamy, and invigorating novel. An excellent paranormal romance novel with a fascinating plot. The climax of this story had me reeling! Curse of Seduction is the first book in the Dark Princes of Purgatory series and it was perfect starter. The starting scene immediately pulled me I and I was hooked. The four princes were cursed by an evil and powerful witch. There are no known solutions to break the curse at the start. Ilana thought she was just a hybrid vampire until Ezekiel became interested in her. She discovered there was so much more to her and that due had been lied to. These characters and all the other lesser characters were wonderful and developed well. I loved this book and could not put it down. It was easy for me to give it 5-stars. I highly recommend it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rebecca Steele Finding The Dream by Joanne Patterson was a great story! This is the second book in the Rebecca Steele series, but I haven’t read the first and this definitely read like a standalone novel! It took me a little bit to get completely into it however, as at the beginning of the story (well to be honest throughout the whole story, but I got used to it after a while) the timelines and time itself wasn’t clearly defined, so I would catch myself being in one place, and then out of nowhere, somewhere else with there being no justifiable shift of time to make sense of where I went. The story was very sweet, and very romantic. There was a slight twist to the story I wasn’t expecting that made the ending much better than I was hoping for! This is definitely a story for just about all ages. I can’t wait to read more from this author!

Ruth Mitchell is a new author to me. I could not have picked a better story to start reading her books. This is a YA science fiction story with a twist of mystery mixed in. The characters are complex and interesting. The plotline is engaging and I found myself turning the pages quickly to see what is coming next. We are introduced to Lucy. Lucy loves everything old. This is interesting since she is a mind-hacker. She did not realize that her sister was a mind-hacker. There is much more for Lucy to learn. Throughout this story, you follow Lucy. You learn what she can do. What will Lucy do now she knows she is a mind-hacker? Can Lucy find whom she is looking for to save lives so their lives are rewritten?

Feisty Heroines is a collection of thirty books, all with a strong female lead.

This review is for Good Bones by Maggie Adams.

Cassandra ‘Casey’ Sparks takes care of her mother’s legacy, a hospice home that’s set in an old crumbling mansion. The mansion has seen better days, and with a failed inspection under her belt Casey comes up with a plan to turn it into a bed and breakfast, she just needs the funds.
Griffin is mourning the loss of his beloved grandfather and wants to pay tribute to his memory by opening a resort in the place where he spent his dying days. He knows he might have to play dirty to convince Casey to sell.
This is a short sweet read and a great addition to the Feisty Heroines anthology. Casey is strong willed, smart and fights for what she believes in. She also has a heart of gold, and you really want her to get the happy ending she deserves.

I am even more excited to find out this will be a series and something I get to delve back into time and again in the future, always a win-win situation.

This book has it all for the lovers of paranormal romance. So many different layers are woven throughout that make this book play like a movie in your mind as you read. Ophelia is the main female and really our protagonist to say the least. She has to be one of the best wicked women that I have read in a long while. She saves no mercy and this book is made because of it. I was a huge fan of Ezekiel and his whole story really plays well throughout. I won’t divulge much more of the storyline that is already given in the blurbs etc. because I can’t bear to ruin the story for anyone! It is definitely worth every moment of your time and a must read 5 star novel. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next novel in the series soon and see what else is available by CR Robertson soon!

This is a heartbreaking story about a young person suffering from mental illness. It was really well written that allowed you to really understand what it feels like to suffer from this illness and how it effects everyone’s lifes not just the person who has it.

Henry loves with his mum and his big brother Tyler. Tyler is struggling with mental health problems but his mum is so focused on being a good mum and providing for her two boys that she doesn’t see the signs or her sons struggles.

That is until their next door neighbour is attacked in her home. No ones knows who has done it but the two main suspects are Tyler and his friend Derek.

All evidence points to Tyler as the main suspect but his mother and Henry don’t believe it.

Was it Tyler who committed the horrible crime or was it Derek? Was Tyler in sound mind or was it voices pushing him forwards.

I am new to Lisa Edmonds but the cover drew in my attention and I just had to know what this urban fantasy would hold. Alice is our main gal! She has a history in the dark that she wants to keep there in order to keep her safe. There are a lot of people who could use her memory and history to their advantage and not Alice’s. Alice also runs her own PI firm and has just taken on a case that will also test her and her magic skills. I love all the components of magic that are at play in this novel and I was always very entertained. I hope we will get many more of Alice and her adventures in the near future!

This book not only met all my expectations but exceeded it for sure! This book is a post war dystopian with a hint of romance to keep things a bit light. I loved the main character, Aroha (who wouldn’t love that name, it is so beautiful!) and following her as she struggles to learn and adjust her thinking to save the world she lives in. We see her being put in a bunker with the impending doom of a meteor coming for earth. While they are there they are all given the diary of Dr. Rachel and through the readings they learn how to avoid the mistakes of the past. Will they learn fast enough and be able to salvage the world before it perishes? I am looking forward to seeing what else we will get from TL Clark, I will for sure be there for it with bells on!

Love Gaia: The Diary Directive By T.L Clark is such a thought provoking and interesting story set in the post-apocalyptic future- where there are lessons to be learned to avoid the same fate.
I love exploring Ms. Clark’s work, as she always brings something new and different to the table. This standalone story took me on a bit of a dystopian journey through devastation, survival, environmental issues, lessons to be learned, drama, emotion, mystery, action, and hope.
As I would expect from Ms. Clark, this story is beautifully written and paints a picture of a believable future- with vividly descriptive scene setting and superb detailing. Ms. Clark’s world building is quite masterful.
We meet Aroha and her classmates who live in a future dystopian society, their sheltered existence gets a shake-up with some shocking and harsh lessons. The hope being that they will learn from the past, so future generations won’t make the same mistakes which led to the devastation and changed the world forever. The lessons involve the journal entries made by Dr. Rachel, and her personal experiences in the events that occurred now help to shape the future.
Intriguing reading!

Thank you, T.L Clark!

Beck tries hard to make the bookstore a local hang out place, but her grandmother is stuck in her ways and is strictly business. With a bestselling mystery writer coming to do a book signing, Beck is super excited, until someone from the audience dies! Now Beck can use all her detective skills she gained from her mystery novels to try to catch the killer. She’s able to make a little head way but some people aren’t happy with her progress. This novel was entertaining, enthralling, and kept me on my toes. Just when I thought I knew who the killer was, I would be thrown a curveball.

There is something about him that gets her attention, she can tell he’s military from the way he carries himself.

Overall I really enjoyed this read. The author pulls you in with her writing. You could feel the attraction between these two coming off the pages.

One of the things I like best about the Madeline Dawkins series is how Madeline’s character keeps learning and changing. It’s so much more like real life, it make you connect with the characters better.
