Infamy (Feisty Lawyers Book 2) by Seelie Kay – Review by Robin Rankin

Infamy (Feisty Lawyers, #2)Infamy by Seelie Kay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Infamy by Seelie Kay is the second book in the Feisty Lawyers series. There were no dull moments in this book and kept me on the edge through most of it. I would have liked to see a bit more of a buildup with Hope’s relationship but other than that I liked it the way it was.

We meet up with Cade, Janet, Anders and Dianna a year after the first book and a lot has happened in that time. I liked seeing where they were after Dianna’s kidnapping and recovery.

The security of the United States is in danger from an unknown threat, but thankfully the Black Ops team is working the case to see what they can do to prevent another horrific attack.

Very enjoyable series and hope to see more in the future.

The Future Memoir of Ann Jones: A Time Travel Romance with a Splash of Magic
By Alex Bailey

This was definitely an engaging original story that I found to be most intriguing. This story is full of twists and turns and be careful because there are things that are not as they seem. As I read further into this book more and more of it came together and made sense. I experienced a variety of emotions while reading this, I laughed, I sat at the end of my seat with the suspense gripping me, and I was touched by the women’s stories. There is a lot going on in this book and the author did an amazing job making it all come together, connecting the dots if you will. I found this story to be an awesome read that I would highly recommend.

Best Foot Forward, The Liberty Lawrence Series, by Bea Stevens

5-star

Best Foot Forward was funny, exciting, mysterious, and romantic. I literally laughed out loud at some of the scenes in this novel. Liberty cracked me up with her inner monologue and rambling. She did her best to solve the crime but also hated the thought of ruining someone else’s life. The twist and actual thief though definitely deserved what the end result was. I can’t wait to read more and see where life takes her and her new relationship with “Mr. Happy”. It was such a wonderful and refreshing read!

Caught in the Spin (The Caught Series Book 2)
By Sharleen Scott

This book was just as amazing as the first one if not better. We did get to meet Tom in the first book, and I knew I liked him them, and of course fell more in love with his character in this story. Tallie is also an awesome strong character with a past that comes into her present. I love the connection and attraction these two had for each other. This book drew me in from the beginning and there were some twists and turns with moments of me holding my breath. This book and this series is a wonderful read you won’t want to miss out on. The author did an exceptional job making these characters so real that I became invested in their outcome. I highly recommend this book!

Deepest Midnight (The Immortal Kindred Series #1)Deepest Midnight
ByClara Winter
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Deepest Midnight (The Immortal Kindred Series #1) by Clara Winter was an engaging read that had me hooked from start to finish.

My first read by this author and I’m impressed. It’s been awhile since I’ve read a good paranormal romance, especially one involving vampires, and I will tell you I had this book read in one sitting. This book had a mix of everything, it played with the normal tropes and clichés, but didn’t overload, and gave more substance to the vampire lore. This book had this dark tone throughout. Even when there was cause to be happy, that lurking darkness was still there, letting us know this book is anything but.

There is one thing I want to touch on and highlight, that really pulled me into this book, and that was the flashbacks to Millicent past. They were giving little by little at first, just a sneak peek here and there into her oastself, and into a time long gone. It gave us just enough that when she reveal her whole story, you were engrossed, captivated and didn’t want it to end. In truth, if the author wanted, could make a prequel going more in depth with what transpire not only between Millicent and Julien, but what transpired after her change.

Overall this book is a solid read, and it’s a solid start to what will probably become my most anticipated series of this year. So please take my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval, that this book will put you in a trance and you will not be able to stop reading until you get to that bittersweet ending.

Happy Reading

Beneath the Surface is the third book in Amy McKinley’s Gray Ghost series, the books read well as standalone stories but I would recommend reading them all just to get the most of this incredible series. Amy McKinley had me
hooked on her writing by the very first installment, she has a talent for creating fast paced stories with great characters and non stop excitement. Beneath the Surface fulfills my expectation of an action packed romantic story, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great read, or even a series that gets better with each book.

Mia Knight has written this suspenseful romance story. I have had so many feels while reading this book. I absolutely loved the story, even though I got angry many times. I also love the characters in this series. I can’t wait to see where the author takes her story. This story is not for those under 18. Due to graphic violence and explicit sex scenes. Well done Mia Knight!

Caught in the SpinCaught in the Spin by Sharleen Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caught in the Spin (the Caught Series Book 2) by Sharleen Scott is the second book in the series, that gets better with each book. Trust me, you need to read the first book in the series as this one comes into play two years after the first book and the characters are intertwined. The plot is a little more sinister than the first, but boy, oh boy, I was captivated and enthralled and no way was I putting it down, even when work got in the way, it was all I could think about. I fell in love with Tom and Talli as I did with Clay and Harlie from the first book. In fact I fall in love with all Sharleen’s main characters. ​Amazing.   Tom, a strong, caring, sexy man has more than physical scars, he spent years looking, years wondering, years wanting. Now he is faced with his past but never in the way he would have imagined, not in a million years. This twist brings heartache and sadness but also an unknown joy.   Tallie, a beautiful, sweet soul has lived through an horrendous past but came out one hell of a strong woman. More than she knows. Unfortunately, that past has resurfaced and is making good on a promise.

It is an emotional read where sometimes there is laughter but other times there are tears. Sharleen is one author that everyone needs to read. She has definitely is a very talented lady.

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series Book 1) by Renee Regent – Review by Jenni Bishop

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series, # 1)Not So Broken by Renee Regent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series Book 1) by Renee Regent is a contemporary romance that finds its way in to your heart and is a fantastic start to the series. It is a bit of an emotional read, sometimes there is laughter but other times there are tears. I was captivated at the raw and real feel of the storyline and I fell in love with Sacha and Gibson.They are two people that are complex, with secrets and trust issues and lots of baggage. But for all that they are wonderful characters, as are their best friends who had me laughing and crying.

Gibson, is a broken man and has left his high profile life behind to somewhere remote and isolated to heal. He is no longer the man he was, that man left a long time ago but the pain, the hurt, the blame he has place upon himself may never be broken. Now he is faced with a miracle, one that brings heartache and sadness but also an unknown joy. Now if only he could make this strong headed woman see he was what she needed. His emotions are so raw that you feel them right along with him and you just want to wrap him up and show him that it will all be ok.

Sacha, was blindsided by a cheating past but came out stronger than before. One night has now left her with a miracle, something she knew was impossible, something she was told would never happen. There were times I wanted to knock some sense into Sacha, she frustrated me a lot. She is just so stubborn and headstrong and didn’t need a man but she is also focused, determined, and goal orientated to get what she wants to support her life.

Not So Broken is a great story, with lots of emotions. I was highly invested in their lives and the outcome from the very start. Now I can’t wait for the next book.

The Shape of Trust (Stand By Me, #5) by Brinda Berry – Review by Jana Teppih

The Shape of Trust (Stand By Me, #5)The Shape of Trust by Brinda Berry
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Shape of Trust is the fifth book in Brinda Berry’s Stand By Me series. I have read EVERY SINGLE ONE of them so you can imagine I was pretty impatient while waiting to get my hands on this one! I guess you could read the story as a standalone (I did start with the 2nd book) but I have learnt that you actually get more out of the series by reading them in order as you get the references!
The Shape of Trust is the story of Webb Walters and Lily Rose and it starts at the bookstore that we learnt to love in the previous book of the series. You cannot believe the connection that is there between Webb and Lily, the struggle that Webb goes through to not give in to it … And let’s not forget about the surprise he gets when his five year old daughter is dropped at his door step, well at the book store, one rainy night … from a bachelor with a past into an insta-dad with no clue … and then there is Lily who struggles with her day to day life, who is like a little fairy that all the kids flock to and fall in love with and who drives in to save the day and brings the temptation even closer …
The writer has given us two great characters that struggle with real problems and I love the way she shows us what our potential path could be!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Shattered is the first book in the Torzial Affair series by Via Mari and I absolutely loved it. This dark, gritty and sexy book is something I have been looking to read for some time. It’s a little Fifty Shades mixed with a dark mafia romance. Even if you have never read Via’s books before (like me); it was easy to understand what happened in the last series where you first met Jenny to now with her and Brian.

Via’s writing style will grip you, pull you in and having you begging for this next book. Everywhere you turned there was a twist or shocking information coming at you. Then you get some sexy, panty dropping scenes with just Jenny and Brian that will have you needing a very cold shower. I can’t wait to dive into Bound and see what is waiting for Jenny and Brian next.

The title for one thing pulled me in first it was certainly something I wouldn’t normally read but thought I’d give it a shot and I’m glad I did.
This book is filled with twists and turns, humour whether it was dark or just normal humour, it had suspense and mystery and above all some brilliantly interesting characters.
This book will leave you truly and utterly stumped, you have many unanswered question at the end of this read that leave you wanting more to find out what happens with Ann!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Untrainable by Jamie Schlosser is the first book I have read by this author and it was truly a gem! The characters were funny and relatable in so many ways. I found myself constantly amused while reading it, that it played like a sitcom in my head.

This book had it’s share of romance mixed in with a tiny bit of angst, but it was a fun way to spend the afternoon. Theodore Legend aka Theo-dog is a strong male character that has been through the ringer. He’s completely killed his career with his boyish antics and bad behavior. Enter in the shy, sweet, always does the right thing, Hadley who is a dog trainer hired to “train” Theo-dog and you have all the ingredients for a laugh out loud romance comedy.

The author’s writing style is smooth and one of the things I appreciated the most is the lack of extreme over detail (the grass was white with just a hint of yellow from the hint of orange sky). You could see each scene perfectly without it being overdone. You can tell that this author is doing what she was made to do as everything seamlessly flowed.

The secondary characters, especially Hadley’s family added such wit and I loved all their shenanigans of an everyday family. It brought up memories of my own childhood. The intimate scenes were done well and with class but still had a big amount of steaminess to them. Overall, I would highly recommend this book for a fun filled read you won’t soon forget.

This is the first book I have read from this author and she blew me away. I absolutely love a good romance story with some suspense but this book exceeded all my expectations. I was hooked on this story right from the start. You can’t help but to fall in love with these characters.

Elaina Adams is getting her doctorate in a very dangerous field. She is a storm chaser and she absolutely loves it. Elaina gets a feeling that a tornado is coming her way and she needs to help the public. She is trying to make more of a warning time for people to seek shelter in a tornado. Elaina’s plan goes wrong and she is almost killed. She has no idea how it happened but the tornado just left. As she was fighting for her life she had a vision about her past. Now Elaina is wanting to find out the truth about her childhood. She is then called into a meeting with her boss and she is told that her chasing will be documented. Elaina is not too happy about this but when she meets the handsome Seth things change. Will Elaina find out the truth about her past or will it be all blown away?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and mystery. You will fall in love with all of these characters. Elaina is a strong and independent woman that knows what she wants. She absolutely loves her work and she would do anything for the people she loves. Seth is handsome guy that is trying to get his career back. He has strong feeling for Elaina but he doesn’t understand why. This is a very emotional story. There will be times of joy and also sadness but you will not be disappointed. This talented author will keep you at the edge of your seat until the end.

Shattered (The Torzial Affair Book 1)Shattered by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Shattered is the first book in the Torzial Affair series by author Via Mari. The Torzial series is a spin-off of the Prestian series by Ms. Mari and while it can be read as a standalone, I have to admit that I felt like I was tossed into the middle of a scene since I did not read the first series. This book follows Jenny Torzial, the owner of a successful consulting firm as she navigates her life following a devastating personal experience. Jenny meets Brian at her best friend’s wedding and feels a deep attraction to the mysterious stranger. Circumstances beyond their control continue to throw the two together and sinister characters want nothing more than to hurt Jenny but Jenny’s new love interest wants nothing more than to protect her.
There is so much that goes on in this story that at times it got confusing (I need to read the Prestial series) but as I continued reading, I got a better understanding of what had happened to the characters in the previous series. I liked Jenny and Brian together and I especially liked the way the author didn’t write Jenny’s character as being weak or whiny. Jenny was dealing with a lot yet still managed to have a backbone, these are my favorite type of characters and I will be reading the next book just to see how Jenny grows.

The Monster’s Lover
By Samantha MacLeod
Rated 4 stars

This is a nice story. A little heavy on the sexy times. I felt the story was strong enough that a few of those could have been tapered down. I liked the theme going through the book. Family struggle, fairy tales and “what are we going to do now” scenes. I wish we could have seen a few chapters from Fenris’ point of view. He is kind of an enigma and remained that way. I thought he was interesting and wondered how he came to be and what happened to his family. I see there is a free story about him and his friend Tyr.
I felt sorry for the girl-Sol. When she ran Into problems on her trip to town. I was shocked and dismayed. I would have loved a bit more insight into Sol’s growing up and how she actually acted with the townspeople. The ending was…good. Closure with her family would have been good but maybe more of that will come in Book two of the series.

I liked the idea of this short story. There are many possibilities on where it can go from here. This is a first time author for me.

The story Infamy (Feisty Lawyers Book 2) by Seelie Kay is a wonderful book that I loved reading. It is thrilling, has plenty of mystery, and kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It is a fast-paced story that is full to twists and turns. When a warning is given regarding a plot against the United States Sheikh Harun Ali, his wife Marianne, along with their neighbors Cade Matthews and his wife Janet MacLachlan are working the case. Will they be able to find a plane that has been buried in an unknown cornfield with the passengers still on board? Who are the ones who have hatched and carried out this plan? What is their endgame? Will they be caught? Read this story to find out. This book has action and danger. It had me turning pages. I enjoyed reading about the interactions/bantering that occurs between many of the characters as it shows how tight-knit of a group they are. There is humorous and flirty talking that also goes on. The story is written in such a way that I felt like I was right there with the characters trying to find those who are responsible. This book hooked me in from the very beginning and didn’t let go until I had read the final page. The story also had me thinking about it even after I had finished. Could something like this happen in real life? This is the second book in a series and I loved it just as much as the first one. I would highly recommend reading it.

Shattered is book one in the Torzial Affair by Via Mari. It feels like a lifetime since I have read a story by this author. It was well and truly worth the wait. It is like coming home to your favourite pair of slippers, warm, inviting, providing a comfort like no other. The story is not all warm and lighthearted. It is intense, dangerous, passionate and exciting.

Jenny has not had an easy run in life, lately. Meeting Brian was the right thing, just at the wrong time. She bares emotional scars that prevent her from truly letting go, which causes a hold to be put on her life and the happiness that goes with meeting your soulmate. Brian is being patient with her, which goes against everything that makes him the stubborn, dominant and beautiful male specimen that he is. They clash, and those battles are quite the spectacle. Brilliant minds going head to head is explosive. They certainly deliver non stop entertainment, passion and attitude. Entertainment overflowing with drama, danger and  decadence. Shattered was an edge of your seat story, that excited and delighted. All brilliantly set out by a gifted and dedicated author. 5 stars.

Now there are all kinds of questions that arise. Charlotte is definitely on a mission to find her friend and uncover the real truths behind Tyrone Garner. Just like the first book, there are so many twists and turns that you will run into, which make this story riveting! I seriously could not put this book down! Charlotte’s character has really changed in the sense that she’s much more sure of herself and has serious guts! She has grown since her first appearance in the first book. I really love this series! This author is amazing at her descriptions and she definitely has a way of pulling you in and keeping you interested the whole way through. Truly captivating writing! There is also a cliffhanger that has you sitting on the edge of your seat wanting more and more! I cannot wait for the next book in the series! I hope it is just as good and the last two book have been.

It was filled to the brim begging me to continue to see where the author was leading me and the characters. I typically am not one to read these type of stories, but Rowena Holloway has woven a compelling story within the series that is a must read for any suspense lover.

Beneath the Surface (A Gray Ghost Novel Book 3) by Amy McKinley – Review by Heather Bahm

Beneath the Surface (Gray Ghost #3)Beneath the Surface by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beneath the Surface, the third book in the Gray Ghost series, by Amy McKinley is a thrilling military romance suspense. Continuing within the theme of the Gray Ghost novels, this story features Hannah and Jack. This story was complex with layers and layers of mystery, deceit and lies just boiling to break free. Amy McKinley is truly creative in her story line creation along with the sequences that unfolded within. I quickly fell within the pages of the story and pushed through chapter after chapter to see where the author was next taking the characters. These were strong and driven characters in the story, each one standing apart from the next. I couldn’t get enough of Hannah’s drive against Jack’s stance on protecting what he felt needed to be done. Captivating and another great novel by Amy McKinley!!
