What a brilliant read, I haven’t read many books by this author but when I do get my hands on one, I’m never disappointed. This one is no different, I was captivated from the start of this read, I was pulled in and was unable to put this read down.
This book has a bit of everything which makes it that much more better! It has suspense, action, adventure and let’s not forget the romance. To top off this read this author has created amazing characters that are relatable, lovable and connectable which made me love following their story throughout.
I was so invested in this read that I didn’t want it to end, but it now just makes me more excited to read book #2 to see where this author takes us! I can’t wait to read more from this series and this author, this is one not to be missed!

Amy’s Santa (Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #1) By Manda Mellett 5 out of 5 stars
The story Amy’s Santa (Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #1) by Manda Mellett is a romantic/suspense/holiday book. It is a story that hooked me in from the very beginning and I found that I didn’t want to put the book down until I had read the final page. Not only is the story amazing, so are the characters. I loved reading about the main two characters and grew to care about them with each chapter that I read. The story starts out at Christmas time when the main female character is going to The Satan’s Devils MC. This is an event that she has looked forward to every year but the current one. She doesn’t want the truth to come out as she fears many will be disappointed with her. She will be able to hide what has happened and pretend everything is fine, won’t she? She has a good friend who has been someone she has come to rely on. She can pretend everything is fine, can’t she? Read this story to find out. This is a book that had my emotions going up and down the entire time I was reading. There are heartbreaking moments and times that I was angry when I read situations that happened. This is a story that is dark in places and may contain triggers. Other times there were happy moments that make you smile. Don’t miss out on a wonderful story that you will not want to put down until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

This is a great addition to the Satan’s Devils MC series and is my favorite yet. It does have some situations that may be a trigger for some and it gets pretty dark in others but it makes the story what it is. This is a well written, engaging story that I read in one sitting. The characters made the story feel realistic as if I was there with them. There is a secret but if revealed will the group take matters into their own hands? I highly recommend reading this, must read story.

I was really excited to read this novella after reading and loving Joe Football and it didn’t disappoint at all. I loved seeing the characters back again and reading about their summer! Autumn Sand is absolutely one of my favourite authors so whilst this book is only a novella because of the type of author she is, it was really well written and there was just enough detail in it to keep me interested. There were also a few small unexpected twists in the story which I loved! It could be read as a standalone but I think to fully understand the characters and their background I would definitely recommend reading Joe Football first. Summer Break was another wonderful ready from Autumn Sand and one that I highly recommend! @katiem

Magic Borne is the third book in The Crown of Stone Series by C.L Schneider. This is such an intriguing and action-packed high fantasy- with adventure, magic, time travel, tragedy, sacrifice, questions, discoveries, tension, drama, originality, superb world building, suspense, and fantastic character growth and development. I definitely didn’t want to put it down till I had discovered how everything played out in the end. This book sees the completion of Ian’s story- and what a journey it has been. Ian Troy had been through so much- and has borne the weight and price of the magic. All the pleasure, as well as the immeasurable guilt that has come with it. Ian wants a life of freedom- from slavery, suffering, and tyrannical rulers. Ian has carried a heavy burden, the hope of his people lays on his shoulders. So much hangs in the balance- and the outcome of his success. Ian has made some discoveries and finally learned what he has to do. He will need to destroy The Crown of Stones in order to free the people in the realm. Sounds pretty simple, right? But is it? And at what cost? You really should read all the intriguing developments for yourself- it’s definitely an adventure you won’t want to miss. I really recommend reading the previous two books first, before starting this one- as those two books contain important backstory, character details, and the developments that have led to this point. So, knowing what happens in those two books will enhance your understanding, and enjoyment of this book. I really recommend this book/series to anyone who loves an epic, action-packed fantasy! Superb!

L. Schneider – Review by Angela Hayes
Magic Scars is the second book in The Crown of Stone Series by C.L Schneider. As with the first book, this is an action-packed high fantasy- with adventure, magic, tension, drama, originality, brilliant world building, suspense, and so much more. I loved the first book, and couldn’t wait to continue the series, reading all three books pretty much back to back. The story starts off a couple of years after the events in book one. Ian Troy had been imprisoned, tortured, and drugged to suppress his magic. He is ‘battle-scared’, both physically and mentally. The world he returns to hasn’t fared much better than him- suffering at the hands of the new High King. Ian is the only hope of freeing the people, and so there is much at stake. He carries a heavy burden of responsibility but struggles to piece his life back together again after what happened. What about The Crown of Stones- and what of his connection to it? His addiction to magic is also a problem. So, he starts searching for the answers he needs- delving into the past to find them, where he uncovers ancient secrets that have shocking implications, not just for him, but for his entire race. What price will the magic cost him this time- and will he find the resolutions he is looking for? Again, this is pretty dark and heavy- and I was left really feeling for Ian and what he had been through, and what was still left for him to endure. Ms. Schneider world building skills are really superb, with so much attention to detail that it seemed so realistic and believable. This fantastic series is really epic, and oh so intriguing. I very much enjoyed Ms. Schneider’s unique and very imaginative adventure. There are still a lot of threads left to tie up- but don’t worry everything comes together in the next book- Magic Borne (Book Three), which is available now to read. I really recommend this book/series to anyone who loves an epic, action-packed fantasy!

L. Schneider – Review by Angela Hayes
Burning Greed is book two in the DI Tanya Miller Investigates series by Diane M. Dickson. This is a crime and investigation story- with police procedural elements, drama, suspense, some intrigue, tension, and some fast-paced ‘action’. This may be the second book in the series, but it can be read as a standalone. The cover and the title really drew me to this book, and as Ms. Miller is a new-to-me author, I was also excited to explore her work. Having now read this book, I will definitely continue with the rest of this series, as well as going back and reading book one. The story follows DI Tanya Miller as she investigates her latest case. One of arson and murder- but Ms. Dickson doesn’t stop there- adding another mystery for Tanya to solve, one that hits close to home, as her niece has gone missing. So, this book is really more like two stories in one- with plenty going on to hold your interest. The story is well constructed, with an intriguing plot. There were surprising developments which I didn’t see coning, and I was left guessing ‘whodunit’ right till the reveal. I found it a little difficult to connect with Tanya at the beginning, which frustrated me, because I always want to feel drawn to my MC’s and invest in them and their story. But little by little, I began to warm up to her, and by the end I came to understand her much better than at the beginning. I am hoping that as I continue the series, I will be able to invest in her more. But don’t get me wrong, this didn’t prevent me from enjoying the story and trying to predict how everything would play out in the end. I look forward to reading the rest of this series, as well as exploring any other work/s by Ms. Dickson.

This is a lovely story about how first love that is lost doesnt have to stay lost forever.
Penelope is a single mum to a little boy called Max. Its christmas eve and their plane has to land as the weather is too bad to carry on, so they are stranded in a little airport until it clears.
Also stranded in the same airport is Artemis Warren. Penelope and Artemis were childhood sweethearts but a misunderstanding caused them to part.
Now 6 years later they are stuck together in a small place. Both holdong secrets that could either destroy each other or bring them back together.
Can they get over all the pain and secrets of the past or is it too late to rebuild the past.
MISPLACED is book two in the “Joined” series and I appreciated that this one was about 100 pages shorter than the first, yet still held all of the colorful descriptions and world building that moves the story along. I still found myself skimming a bit because I really wanted to find out what was going to happen next.
This continues to be a journey of epic proportions with suspense and twists and turns along the way. The cadence of the story moves it along seamlessly.

These authors…this series…this book…WOW!!! I didn’t think Kells and Wade could outdo themselves but they certainly have. They continue to set the bar high with the collaboration. The characters are rich and fascinating. There’s just the perfect balance of romance and suspense. Loved every page and cannot wait to see what comes next.
HIDDEN OBSESSION is book 2 in the “Alliance Agency” series and the way these authors co-write allow the reader to become immersed the story even if they are reading the series out of order.
While we are only on book 2, this is my favorite series from these writers to date. There is action and suspense and romance. The pacing is fast, timing is impeccable and the story is easily read in one sitting.
I absolutely recommend this book, this series and these authors.
tag: KU, book 2, great series, cowritten ***** Review by @mauraharper
Naughty & Nice was a great 5 star read and book four in the Spicetopia series.
Big things are going on at Spicetopia, Natalie is planning Cy and Jolie’s wedding. She meets Micah when he arrives a few days early. He is officiating the nuptials and was a little interested in checking out the park.
These two have an instant connection, they connected on so many levels. They had some great conversations that made you think about things. Can these two have more? Will everything go good for the wedding?
Overall I really enjoyed this book and these two.Natalie was great, she wasn’t afraid to speak her mind, at times she was told she intimidated men. Being an Empath she can feel things. Micah has a past that has sort of dictated how he’s been living his life. Phoebe once again pulled me in and I couldn’t stop until I was done. I look forward to reading more from this series. 1-click and get started today.
Summer Break: A Joe Football Novella is the first I have ready by Autumn Sand. It definitely had a novella feel to it, as it didn’t go very deep. I felt like it was a little lacking and I wasn’t fully invested in any of the characters. This could be because I haven’t read Joe Football, which sounds like it would give the background. So while this can be a stand alone, its a brief skim of their summer, and wasn’t detailed enough to pull me in. I recommend reading the first book first, to be fully invested. Overall the story was not bad, and I definitely want to know what happens to Wayne and Jana, so I plan to read the next book when it is released. However, as far as Brice and Favor, being the main characters, I wasn’t as interested as I would hope. The bonds between the characters are well written, and the emotions are felt throughout the story. I like the writing style of Sand, and will be reading more. I just need to go back and read the first book to be able to appreciate this one more.

Summer Break: A Joe Football Novella by Autumn Sand Five Stars
Summer Break: A Joe Football Novella by Autumn Sand is a wonderful addition to this series. I love reading more of Brice and Favor’s story. This short story was packed with love and angst. While I believe this story can be read as a stand alone, I highly recommend you read Joe Football first. The ending was such a surprise and I can’t wait to see what will happen next in this series. Highly Recommend! Review @sunbarn

The Hazed Series Boxed Set by Brittany Tarkington 5 stars
This set blew me away! Leaving her overprotective family behind to go to school, Taylor meets Hayze, who has a story all his own, and its a roller coaster of emotions from beginning to end. This is a little dark and does deal with addiction but I’m ok with those things but others may not be.
I really was sucked into this series and a change of pace for me as of late, i will be reading more from this author, I just cant get my thoughts into words to do this justice.

5-Stars
Irresistible At Christmas was an excellent collection of romantic Christmas stories and I could not put it down. I loved how well the authors did with the development and characters of each story. Hunky men and steamy scenes make this a great collection to read by the fire with a cup of coffee. I found myself lost in these stories. Each one was easy to read. I also loved how organized it was. I highly recommend this collection.
Summer Break: A Joe Football Novella by Autumn Sand
5 Stars
Reading this quick gem has made me want to go back and reread the first book. I love these characters and this story although quite short was jam packed full of vintage Autumn Sand, who couldn’t move up much further on my favorites list.
When all they wanted to do was have an awesome summer break, you just know that there’s a lot more to come than cupcakes and rainbows lol secrets and relationships tested. I loved it and can’t recommend it high enough!
Read Joe Football before this one, which is what I’m going back to do so I’m all ready for the next in this series…I can not wait!

Irresistible at Christmas (Irresistible Romance book #2) is a beautiful anthology filled with stories by some of my favourite writers! I love anthologies as they give me an opportunity to discover new writers while delving deeper into the worlds by the writers I already love and admire. My number one in this anthology is Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson! I have read every single story she has written and whenever I see that she has released something new, I jump on them and I absolutely loved her new addition to her wounded warrior series. It was a pure pleasure to be back in Crystal Rock and Dragon Pointe for a magical Christmas and if you have not read any of Tamara’s books before then this is a beautiful introduction into her world! Another one of my favourite writers is Stephanie Queen and it was a great fun to read about Scarlet who decided to become the next Miss Christmas while falling in love with a stranger who for some reason is stubborn and thinks that Scarlet is not the one for him even though deep down he knows better! Natalie Ann is another writer who I found in another collection and I loved her short story Gifts of Love. If you like stories about self-made millionaires and money not making one happy … add to it a woman who has been hurt too many times before and you have a story that will bring you into Natalie’s world. I had also read Alicia Street’s books before so I knew that there might be something good in store for me and she did not disappoint! She gave us a well written piece of from enemies to lovers! Add to it a small town and you can close your eyes and just picture it! If you feel that you want to celebrate the season with some season appropriate reading then this collection hits the spot!
Lara Ward Cosio really hit this one straight to the home run. I absolutely loved everything about Hula Girl. That cover is bold and gorgeous drawing you in before you even know what it would be about. I loved that I wanted to read this before I even got to the nitty gritty. Then I found out that this book includes a lot of legal and lawyers stuff, a genre that I am partial to having wanted to always be a lawyer myself. I just connected with this fun and witty romance in every way possible.
We got to follow Ava on her hot sexy beach vacation and then we got to see how fate had her love life planned out well before she even knew what hit her. I loved the way this book didn’t fall into a predictable pattern. I had a blast seeing each twist and turn as they played out and when we get to that picture perfect ending it just really brings the book to a perfect close. I am anxious to reread this one it was that good! Can’t wait to see what else will come from the talented mind of Lara Ward Cosio!
Autumn Sand has outdone herself with this Joe Football Novella, Summer Break. The cover alone makes you want to read the book especially when I figured out it belonged to Autumn Sand and her Joe Football series. I would recommend that you read the first book in the series before diving into this one as it is a continuation of Brick and Favor’s story. It has our favorite characters experiencing summer break and all that it brings them. Of course we will get a small underlying message much like all the other books I have had the pleasure of reading by Autumn Sand prior to this. I loved that it was just spicy enough for me and I would still feel comfortable letting my teen read it. I loved the secrets and all that it did for the storyline. They were not done in a cliche way either so bonus! I can’t wait to see what we will get next for these characters and more from Autumn Sand!

Every now and then I find myself lost in a novel that completely takes my breath away and makes me pause to re-evaluate my life and where I am in it. Lost in Carmel by Terri Lee definitely turned into one of those gems. I have not read anything by Terri Lee before this so I was not sure exactly what I would be getting myself into when I decided to give this book a go for the pure beauty that is the cover. I loved it and I am so glad that I did pick this up!
Lost in Carmel brings us the story of Natalie Hampton, a Hollywood star and pretty much America’s sweetheart. We get to see everything that comes with that title and all the dirty and dark secrets that often surround the lifestyle of the rich and famous. Things are not easy and she if faced with a lot of difficult life lessons that are of course complicated in general but then you add the extra issues of being in the spotlight and stuck to figure out how to navigate life feeling so very lonely. I adored this book and found myself reeling from the emotions from the very beginning to the gorgeous end. It was a nice little vacation to Rome as well and I loved the descriptions of the scenes that made me feel as if I was right there with Natalie. I look forward to seeing what else is available from Terri Lee while I anxiously await to see what will come out new from her as well!

This series was remarkable. The storyline was perfect and the characters, very well developed. I love that the first 2 books are told from Taylor’s point of view and the 3rd book is from Hayze’s point of view. Having 2 different viewpoints always makes for a more interesting story. It’s also nice to see what each character is feeling in different moments. Hayze is a typical bad boy, he has a lot of baggage and tries to bury it all by sleeping around, drugs and alcohol, he just doesn’t care. Then he meets the one girl that makes life seem worth it and he starts to get scared that his secrets will all be revealed. He spends time lying to Taylor and hurting her many times, but everyone has their own problems to work through. It is very frustrating wanting Hayze to share his secrets with Taylor, I knew in my mind she would accept him through it all. These books are filled with so many ups and downs, addiction, obsession, lies, drama, it all came together for a perfect series. My heart ached so many times, but I love when a book can completely crush me. I could not put these books down and I highly recommend them to any romance lover.

The Hazed Series by Brittany Tarkington is a great story about two opposite personalities and the connection they forge. I was intrigued by this series from the moment I read the blurb. I instantly knew I wanted to find out all about the secrets Hayze was hiding. Normally with a series like this I split it up and read something else in between each book. However with this series I found myself just continuing on through as I had to find out what was going to happen. As I was reading the series I loved the fact that it was a YA college romance and yet it felt like so much more than that – deeper and more mature. It actually made the feelings the characters were experiencing more relatable. This was a great series and a brilliant way to discover a new author.

What a brilliant introduction to a new author. This book was a fantasy read that was full of action & adventure. The storyline that this author has created was compelling and I couldn’t put the read down. It was a mentally visual read that I was captivated by from start to finish! To top this brilliant read off was the amazing characters that really helped push this story along! I can’t wait to see what else happens with this series and where else this author takes us! I highly recommend this read, you will not want to miss it otherwise you will be sorely disappointed.

Jones – Review by Chantelle Smith
The Hazed Box Set contains books 1-3 of the Hazed Series by Brittany Tarkington. I had never read any of Brittany Tarkington’s work so was unsure what to expect. OMG! I was taken on the most amazing of journeys. This box set is unlike anything I’ve ever read. It’s definitely not a cute, sweet romance, far from it! It’s powerful, hard hitting and really gives you all the feels. You could correctly say that this is an opposites attract love story, but it has so, so much more than this. It deals with addiction and all the highs (no pun intended) and lows that go with dealing with addiction and obsession. I adored both Taylor and Hayze but there were so many times that I wanted to slap them both and bang their heads together. Their story had me gripped from the very start, all the way through their traumatic journey, right up to the very end. The parts of the book that were written from Hayze point of view (all of book 3 is as well as other chapters throughout) I found most harrowing. My heart truly broke for him on so many occasions. Deep down he just wanted to be loved and feel worthy of being loved. I have read that there will also be a 4th book in this series and I cannot wait to read it.

This is one of my favorite authors. I know that I am in for a steamy, suspenseful story that I won’t be able to put down. This one is no different. This story is in POV of four characters which made the story engaging. In this story Katrinia and Chase goes up against family to take over her father’s dream. I loved seeing Katrinia showing us how strong she really is. There is steam, action and suspense that left me turning pages fast. This is a must read and I highly recommend reading the previous books by this author.

Holiday Terminal by Gwyn McNamee and Christy Anderson is a short and sweet little Christmas read that is full with emotion. On the flight home for Christmas Penelope, Max (her son), and Jolynn (her mom), are forced to land their plan in a very small town because of a snow storm. Unfortunately, fate would have it that her ex from years ago, Artemis Warren was also forced to land at the same tiny airport. The separate worlds of the two of them collide again, only this time there are a lot of scars and secrets… big secrets… secrets that could change both of their lives in a major way. The secret is soon revealed and so it begins the back and forth of the emotional pull between the two. This book was delightfully pleasant. There was so much emotion packed in to this book and the character were very favorable. The story-line was great and I got the ending that I had hoped for all along. This is a quick read that would be perfect by a day spend by the fireplace with a cup of hot chocolate.

The story Rule (The Larussio Legacy Book 1) by Via Mari is a romantic/suspense book. It is a story that pulls you in from the beginning and doesn’t let you go until the final page.

You can feel the passion and desire that these two have for one another. Katarina finds herself trying to fulfill her father’s dream.

Will they find themselves together? This book has danger, secrets, as well as twists and turns. Don’t miss out on the first book in this series. You will not be disappointed.

Loving Jake by Lisa Lanay is the first book in the Almost Perfect series and it looks like the first book released by Ms. Lanay.
Kimberly is like most women who have older brothers, at one point she had a crush/was in love with his hot best friend as a kid. She hasn’t seen Jake in years but that doesn’t stop the butterflies when she does see him for the first time in five years.
I think I too may be in love with Jake, or at the very least crushing on him. The way he was with Kimberly melted my heart just a little and don’t even get me started on his relationship with his grandfather.
This book was a nice escape from a bunch of chaos and I enjoyed every minute of it.

The Hazed series written by Brittany Tarkington is the first book that I have read by this author and it won’t be the last. This is a college romance with secrets, lies, obsession, and addiction all plays a part in this story. The characters are great and well written the plot is great.

When Taylor Thompson comes stumbling into a bar, he’s core is shaken. For the first time in his life, he begins to question if what he is doing is right. He begins to develop feelings for her, and It appears she’s into him as well. He doesn’t want her to know about his past so instead of him showing her that he care’s he lashes out. He is afraid someone will tell her the truth, he’s constantly on edge. With his odd behavior, and constant need to keep her at arm’s length, she begins to connect the dots.
This was a great box set and I highly recommend it.
