Seriously… when you have a well written book chock full of vivid imagery, suspense, romance, action, some history, and exotic locales… what isn’t to love?! This book had me riveted from beginning to end. There was never time to be bored or lose focus. The plot was quick, the action fast-paced, and the characters extremely relatable. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to reading more from Deaton.

I devoured the first book of the series and seriously couldn’t wait to get this second installment in my hands. I am so excited to say that Gan DID NOT disappoint. This book was every bit of engaging and fantastic as it’s predecessor. Vivid imagery and detail. The main characters were extremely well written and felt very relatable. The storyline didn’t feel contrived but rather had a natural ebb and flow that allowed the characters to breathe. I truly loved this book and continue to love this series. I am excited to see what Gan might write next – I anticipate another epic edition to my library!

Pulkinen is an extremely gifted writer and continues to impress me with each book she writes. This latest paranormal romance kept me interested and invested from first page to last. Just a touch of suspense to keep things interesting. Just a great storyline that flowed well with two amazing main characters with undeniable chemistry. Just a great book.

Winds of Fear (Fearless Series Book 3) by Gledé Browne Kabongo
5-Stars
Winds of Fear (Fearless Series Book 3) by Gledé Browne Kabongo was an addictive and exciting read. This was the first book I have read by this author and I enjoyed it. The story can be read as a standalone and it immediately pulled me in. I was fascinated with the characters and plot. I loved how well each was developed and I struggled to put this book down. The author has an excellent writing style that made it feel that I was actually in the story. I was intrigued with how everything slowly unfolded in this story. I love Abbie’s character in this novel. I will definitely be reading more in this series in the future.

I absolutly loved this book. It gives the feel of a fun romantic read but there are some serious moments in it that totally pull at the heartstrings. This was a read I’ve been needing lately! This was one of those books that gave you way more than what you were expecting. The character development was amazing and you couldn’t help but fall in love with the characters. Its one of those books that you will lose all time because it will suck you in and even at the very end you want to stay. I have to say Lara Ward Cosio has definitely made it on my list of automatic one-click authors!

Not a Good Death: Agents of Dart Series Book Two was a thrilling 4 star read.
I was pulled in right from the beginning witnessing a murder of a teenage girl and another scared for her life. At least she had enough sense to stay quiet and not give herself away. When it’s safe she flees and knows there is only one person that she can call for help.
When Lily and Dillion go on their first job for DART, they get more than they expected. While trying to get the scientist to leave with them he gets a phone call, a call that causes him to run. Lily and Dillion are also a couple and while working on this case they encounter some challenges.
We get danger, murder, suspense and so much more in this read. All of the characters added a great element to the story. This is my first read from Naomi Bellina and I really enjoyed it. This can be read as a stand alone. I look forward to reading more in this series and from Naomi. 1-click and get started today.

The initial introduction into the life of Ian Troy was epic. It brought to my mind stories like JRR Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of The Rings Trilogy. As I proceeded on the journey with Ian Troy I was left in awe of this author’s imagination. The story captured my attention and I enjoyed the journey. The ending was dramatic and left me wanting more. I look forward to the next installment and cannot wait to continue the journey.

Not a Good Death by Naomi Bellina is the second book in the Agents of Dart series. This book can be read as a standalone, you do not need to have read the previous book first. As my first read by this author I wasn’t sure what to expect. I will be honest and say the blurb didn’t really grab my attention too much however the reviews it received definitely caught my interest. I found the book to be fast paced and exciting in a few parts. You could really feel the suspense throughout the book. I’m not overly sure how I felt about Lily and Dillon choosing to work together given they are together. However that being said I think the author did a great job of balancing the two aspects of the story. I definitely warmed to them both by the end of the book. The author has a great flow to her story and it is that which really kept me reading. I enjoyed the way the book was developed and the picture that was painted. I will definitely be looking into more work by this author.

Irresistible at Christmas is an anthology of Christmas stories that are all perfect season heart warmers. I really enjoyed the fact that for once I knew the majority of the authors in this anthology so, although it meant I was introduced to less new ones I knew that I was going to enjoy it all before I started. Each of these books had completely different things about them that I loved. And yet each of them had an appeal that made you want to read them. The authors all managed to get their own personalities across and yet the books all went very well together. I don’t think I could honestly pick which of these books was my favourite as I enjoyed them all so much. If you haven’t started your seasonal reading yet then I would say this anthology is the perfect way in which to do so.
I feel like I say the same thing over and over-but Phoebe’s stories are just THAT GOOD! Loveable characters, interesting plots, and sizzling scenes make every story a delight to read. Naughty and Nice really deals with what could be heavy issues for people and breaks them down into easily digested bits while not losing her integrity as a woman or a story teller. Wonderful job! 5 stars.

Vampire State by Alexander Charalambides is a paranormal full-length book. I love books about Vampires, and this is one that I see myself reading again multiple times. The main character in this book is Rowena and she has a lot of tough decisions to make after the Pales aka Vampires have taken over. What would you be willing to give up saving your family and yourself? Rowena is by far my favorite character in this book, but you can’t help but like both Vincenzo and Luka also. This book was intriguing it keeps you hooked reading page to page and throws in so many twists and turns you can’t figure out what will happen next. I can’t wait to read more from this author.

Naomi Bellina is a new author for me but what a brilliant introduction. Not a good death was a captivating and engaging read that had me hooked from the beginning and left me wanting more!
This book was filled to the brim with twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat with suspense. These books can be read as a stand-alone but after reading this one, I can’t wait to go back and read Book 1. This author has a created a book with depth and realness, it has a brilliant storyline and characters that really stand out within the story! I can’t wait to read more from Naomi Bellina she will definitely be on my go-to list.

Not a Good Death (Agents of Dart Series Book 2) by Naomi Bellina. I LOVE this book! This is about Lily Blume and Dillon Hurst partners in life and work. While on a retrieval assignment working for DART(Damage, Avert and Rescue Team) in a small Midwest town their subject attacks them and takes off. Then they find a teen girl dead so their game plan changes. Dillon is struggling to obey rules and Lily is worried she might have made a mistake having him come to work with her. As they struggle to solve the murder which they think is tied to their subject they are learning its harder to work together than they thought. Dylan knows how to follow orders with his military background but when Lily is in danger and the rules suck they are proving very hard to follow. Both of their jobs are on the line if this job is screwed up and as more murders pile up they’ve got to solve this case. This book can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading the first one. Its an awesome series and I can’t wait for the next one.

Burning Greed (DI Tanya Miller Investigates Book 2) By Diane M Dickson 5 out of 5 stars
The story Burning Greed (DI Tanya Miller Investigates Book 2) by Diane M Dickson is a thrilling crime fiction book. The story has an atmosphere of suspense and I found myself on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I enjoyed reading about the character of DI Tanya Miller. She is strong, independent, and intelligent. Tanya finds herself pulled between two cases. One in which a woman’s body was found in the debris of a fire and the disappearance of her niece. Will Tanya find her niece? Will she find out why the woman was in the fire? Read this book to find out. I loved that this story had great details regarding the case, and I felt like I was right there with Tanya and the others while they are investigating. Tanya is someone who is sharp, resourceful, and willing to take chances to solve cases. She will not give up until she solves whatever case she is on and I could feel her frustration when little progress is made. There are other characters that you are introduced to. Many of them work with Tanya. Some of the others are part of a rouge’s gallery of suspects and witnesses that must be interviewed. I enjoyed trying to solve this mystery. Don’t miss out on a story that will hook you in from the beginning and not let you go until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

A Song to Remember: A Crescent City Wolf Pack Novella (Mystifying Music Book 3) By: Carrie Pulkinen 5 out of 5 stars
The story A Song to Remember: A Crescent City Wolf Pack Novella (Mystifying Music Book 3) by Carrie Pulkinen is a wonderful paranormal/werewolf book. It hooked me from the very beginning, and I found myself turning pages to find out what happens next. I loved reading about the characters of Shane and Bekah. There is a deep connection between them. Shane wonders if Bekah could be his fated mate. His wolf is sure. Shane also finds himself in danger and without his memory. His bandmates believe him to be a liability to their plans. Love is a powerful emotion and even with no memory, Shane finds himself at Bekah’s café. Can Bekah help Shane regain his memory? How much danger are Shane and Bekah in? What does the future hold for Bekah and Shane? Read this book to find out. This story has romantic moments that will make the temperature in the room rise. I love books that are about werewolves and this one is a wonderful example of why. There are other characters that interact with Bekah and Shane. Many are helpful to the couple and don’t think twice about coming to their aid. Don’t miss out on a story when a handsome band member and the owner of a café find out if they are fated mates. I highly recommend reading it.

Holiday Terminal: (A Second Chance Secret Baby Billionaire Holiday Romance) by Gwyn McNamee and Christy Anderson was the first Christmas book of the year for me and almost got my grinchy heart into the spirit.
I have read most of Ms. McNamee’s books and wasn’t sure what to expect with a collaboration, especially with an author I have only recently discovered but I throughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more by these two ladies in the future.
Max stole my heart from the very beginning of the book and didn’t let go, there was just something about that little boy that grabbed me.
Though there were some issues between Penelope and Artemis, there wasn’t the heavy drama like there could have been which made me enjoy it that much more.

The Hazed Series Books 1-3 by Brittany Tarkington is the first books I have read by this author. I was not sure what to expect but I can tell you that I was blown away. Tarkington plot line follows a tight grip on the reader. The characters are complex and interesting. The subject of the three books is one of obsession and addiction. The series is based on a relationship between Taylor and Hayze. Taylor just received an acceptance letter to the college that is just far away enough to let her feel herself. Taylor has never been so free before, due to her strict father and small town. She applied for a job as a waitress in a local bar and that is where she meets Hayze. This is where the stories get interesting. In book one it was the initial introduction of Taylor and Hazye. Through books 2-3 it is about the relationship of Taylor and Hazye. The relationship has many different characteristics some healthy and some not so healthy. How will Taylor handle being away and on her own? What will become of Taylor and Hazye’s relationship? Will the skeletons come out of the closet or will they remain hidden from one another? Will Taylor and Hazye become a couple? You will have to read these books to find that information out.

I give Love in the Lowcountry (A Winter Holiday Collection Book 1), 4 stars.
This is a great collection of Christmas romance stories. What makes it stand out is that there are multiple subgenres of romance, such as contemporary romance and paranormal romance. This makes it even more interesting in my opinion, you never what what you’re going to get next.
While there are many good stories in here, I want to focus on Poinsettias for Carly by Michele Sims. It takes two main characters who were really close when they were young, but tragedy separated them. Now she can’t stand him, especially after this latest move. But he seems to want to forgive and forget. Is she willing?
Not a very long story, the author is able to tell us so much about these characters’ pasts while explaining what is happening in the current day too. This felt like a complete story to me and while I would love to read more about these people, I did not like I was left hanging. The author is a great storyteller and it really comes across in the story.
If you like variety in your romance short stories, this is the perfect anthology for your holiday season.

Mason is a man full of good, solid strength. His drive to do good in the world is what brought him to Alliance Agency and the work he has been dedicated to. But when he arrived, he never expected the feisty, spunky and equally dedicated Cleo.
Cleo has a driving force to better the world, even if it’s just from her desk at what has become her home in the agency. Her big heart and dedication to the team comes from a part of her past she is trying hard to leave behind. She’s fighting the attraction that she has to the devastatingly charming and handsome Mason.
When they become closer, their worlds intertwine. in that means, her past is coming forward quickly. Though she’s scared, she comes to terms a bit with knowing if she has Mason she can deal with it. What she doesn’t expect is the twisted turns ahead. As they’re faced with serious obstacles, they fight to hold on. I was completely enthralled, captivated and slightly sucked into the action as I fought to figure out the who’s, why’s and how’s! I surely didn’t expect for the bit of a twist that had me yelling, “what the heck?” at my kindle as I refocused and read on. I loved this book and look forward to more from these two! It’s such a fabulous read that will keep you guessing!
I enjoyed this paranormal romance book. This is an author that has continued to impress me with each book I read of hers. I have enjoyed this series and is one of my favorites. I was pulled into the story right from the beginning. The characters are great and I loved their chemistry together. Shane and Bekah meet and have a connection. When he shows up at her cafe with no memory of her or himself, will she be able to help him remember? Suspense, danger, romance, I highly recommend this book.

This Winter Holiday Collection has a little bit of everything!
Poinsettias for Carly by Michele Sims is a pretty ok and sweet story. It’s a quick short story about 2 kids growing up together until a tragic accident and a few misunderstandings cause hurt feelings and repressed love. All this information is gathered in flash backs. Those same kids are grown-ups now and are meeting again for the first time in many years. As they reminisce, they rediscover their love for each other.
The story flowed well but I didn’t seem able to connect to the characters. I could definitely see how their situation could have been different with some good old fashioned open communication. I like Sims writing style to keep reading her stories. While there seems to be something missing, Sims is a writer to be watched!
Looking forward to reading the rest of this anthology and other Sims stories!

Not a Good Death (Agents of Dart Book 2) by Naomi Bellina 4 Stars
This is book two in the Agents of Dart series. I didn’t read book one but there was enough information in this one that I wasn’t lost at all. If you want to know how Lily and Dillon met, you should read book one. This is Dillon’s first mission as a Dart agent and Lily is training him. It was supposed to be an easy mission but everything that could go wrong, went wrong. Lily always follows the rules, they are there for a reason. Dillon shows her that sometimes rules need to be bent to accomplish a mission. The book is filled with danger and action. Lily and Dillon need to learn to work together if they are going to survive and catch a killer.

Summer Break: A Joe Football Novella by Autumn Sand is a college romance story and a nice extension of the first book in the series of Joe Football. It is a quick and easy read that tells the tale of the friendships of those in the first book. I would suggest that you read Joe Football first so you get to know the characters and who they are. Autumn has done a great job on this one, even though it is full of the normal YA stressors and the underlying theme of being able to communicate with those you love. I love the characters, some are very mature whilst others are stilling trying to deal with life as it is thrown at them.
Secrets threaten to tear the friends apart and sometimes love it just not enough.
If you loved Joe Football you will love this Autumn does not let you down.

Misplaced: Joined: Book Two by Mara Gan is a fantasy romance and a great read. It is well written and is unique in its telling and the rich and vivid world that Mara has created. The plot is well done and there are twists that you don’t see coming. It is full of mystery and intrigue, lots of action and drama, adventure and suspense and evil but hope around every corner. I loved the first book in the series and was not disappointed with this one either. I found myself losing sleep because I was unable to put it down, I just had to know what was around the next corner. The characters are written beautifully and are well crafted and oh so endearing, so much so that I found myself laughing out loud on many occasions at the banter and their actions.
Meda awakes not know how she got where she is, where she is and even if that is her name. She finds herself alone and having to carve out a life for herself in her strange surroundings. Managing to keep herself alive, barely, she sets out to help those in need without a second thought to her own safety. She is a true pleasure to read about and her antics. Will she ever remember the life she had before?
Kyros is more than he seems, he has many names. He lives a privileged life but one that is not truly his own. He is a Mercenary and a finder of treasures but finding those treasures are not as easy as it seems. He is grumpy all the time until he finds himself drawn to a selfless, caring and wonderfully strange beautiful woman tied to a pole but that is the least of her problems it seems she finds herself in all sorts of trouble and he finds himself at her rescue more often than not.
Overall, this is a great read and I am anxiously awaiting to see what happens to Meda and Persius.

Hidden Obsession (An Alliance Agency Novel Book 2) by Maddie Wade & India Kells, these girls, they just amaze me with their story telling. I loved this book. Although to be fair I think I say that about all their books, but I do mean it each and every time. The action starts from the very first pages and keeps up all the way to the end and let me tell you, you do not see what is coming. This book is full of men and women who are determined and will stop at nothing to keep those they love safe.
Cleo has a stalker, but is it someone from her past or is it someone else? She has tried so hard to keep her past hidden but now it seems its ugly head is being reared again to threaten her very existence and her sanity.
Mason has always had a thing for the violet haired beauty, and he will do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Now he just has to convince her that she needs him. What he doesn’t expect is the realisation of just who is after his girl and just how far they will go to get what they want.
I wait with bated breath for the next book in this series!
Romance on the Rig by Kara Liane is a story in Risking Everything: A Steamy Anthology of First Responders. Once I started reading this story in the anthology, I couldn’t stop.
Murf has not had luck in the love department but he thinks he’s met his one. Unfortunately, there is a misunderstanding between Murf and Lana that prevents them from being together. Will Murf be able to make it right so they can be together?
This author is new to me but It was such a good story to read, I may have to read more! There are many other great stories in this book i highly recommended giving it a try!

The Unholy by Paul DeBlassie III is a supernatural horror story that draws on a number of spiritual traditions to provide a rich background to the characters and their experiences. The title refers to the antagonist, Archbishop Anarch, whose quest for power and fortune within the church has led him to moral and spiritual corruption. Claire is one of the few people working at the Ecclesia Dei Psychiatric Hospital who isn’t a member of Anarch’s congregation, and so is outside of his control. She brings to the hospital her in depth knowledge of both natural therapies and mental health work, drawing on her educational background and her upbringing amongst medicine women. She is committed to her patients and critical of some of the hospital’s approaches to caring for them. As well as her battle against the corrupt Archbishop, Claire is fighting against her own destiny. She is called to follow in her mother’s footsteps to be a medicine woman but has resisted this call as she is afraid that it will lead to her death. Having reached the age of 25, the age her mother was when Claire witnessed her violent death, Claire is increasingly worried about what her future holds. One of my favourite characters was Francesca, Claire’s spiritual guide and foster mother. I liked how down-to-earth and observant she was, and how often Claire referred to her wisdom. For me, this is a four-star book. If you’re looking for a battle between good and evil with a deep spiritual background and some interesting characters, this is worth a read!
