Surviving the Storm (Surviving Series Book 2)Surviving the Storm by Virginia Wine
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Surviving the Storm by Virginia Wine is the second book in the Surviving Series. This book can be read as a stand-alone.
For me this whole book was about the characters. I could feel the chemistry between them from their first meeting and felt it throughout the book.
The author knows how to develop the story and keeps you hooked from the start. I loved the first book but this book was easily even better than the first. Although you do not need to read the first book I would highly recommend you do as it is a great series to read. I can’t wait to see what else is to come.

The Debt Collector (An Underground Bad Boys Romance) by India Kells
4 Stars!!!!

I will admit that this isn’t my go to genre but I do like to try out new types of books. I have to admit that I did find this book quite enjoyable. The author does a great job with handling the subject matter within the book. I found that I was quite drawn into this book as the drama unfolded in it.

The emotions that Tessa went through and the drama I felt as though I was going through it vicariously through the character. I found that I started to route for Locke the more the book progressed. Sometimes the bad boy isn’t such a bad boy at all and they are the ones that save the damsel in distress. I really liked the author’s writing style and will definitely read more from her in the future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I was so excited to finally read the conclusion to Juniper and Kyle’s story and it didn’t disappoint at all! I loved every minute of it and read it in only a few hours. The author’s writing was outstanding, you could tell how much thought and planning went into the story and it really was an absolute pleasure to read. I loved how the author kept me guessing the whole way through the story, there were so many twists and turns – I was definitely kept on the edge of my seat trying to guess what was going to happen. The writing was beautifully detailed and I absolutely cannot recommend it enough. This series needs to be read in order as it is a continuation of Juniper and Kyle’s story. I love Juniper and Kyle; they both have their own issues to deal with and through the dual telling of this story I really felt like I got to know them both really well.
It is actually really hard to write this review without giving anything away so all I can say is that it is definitely one of my favourite reads of this year and if you have read the previous book then you absolutely need to read this conclusion – you will not be disappointed!

Once again I have delved into Trinity’s world and once again I was sucked in from page one. The author has such a refreshing writing style. The story just rolls out from the pages and takes the reader on a journey. I couldn’t put the book down wanting to find out what would happen next.

The whole fight against evil even though supernatural is brought to life in this book. I found myself routing for Trinity and Blain. The whole twist at the end just brought the whole book full circle for me. I am such a huge fan of Greek mythology and the way in which the author uses it brings such a refreshing take on it all. I will definitely be reading more from this author and hopefully more from this series.

Souls Collide (Collide Series #3)Souls Collide by Kristina Beck
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great read about opposites. When a black cat crosses her path, Alexa runs into a series of bad luck, including bumping straight into Kent at a hospital. Kent is bitter with the world after tradegy, but Alexa seems to be a ray of sunshine. Will he let her in or push her away in fear?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. Well developed characters like Alexa standing up for herself but kind underneath or Kent harsh exterior but kind and sweet or Abby’s positive outlook on life being too short to be miserable.  A great cast of supporting characters like Vince as a good friend or Dali as bubbly and loud.
I loved the use of visual detail throughout the novel like with the cafe shop full of life and people. Or the colourful nature of Alexa and her kitchen with bright red and soft whites combining together. Or the vivid colours of the headscarves and pillows in bright bold colours against a dark world as a sense of comfort and happiness to Abby and beautifully written. And loved the sweet look on cancer as something with its ups and downs. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It’s always refreshing to start a book that feels different. Meeting Theo was like breathing fresh air. Getting to know him as an individual was quite beautiful. He had his struggles, like any well-developed character. It was those struggles that keep you wanting to go back for more. Then Eden comes along, and everything just falls into place.
I loved everything about Surviving Eden by Virginia Wine. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much I enjoyed the book and characters. And those struggles that I mentioned before, yeah – definitely loved those. I can’t wait to see where the author takes her readers. I’m excited for more.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands Story is the second book in the Forgotten Woods series from PA Wikoff. Now, I have read the first book in the series, The Harrowed Half-Breed, but this isn’t necessarily a requirement to read this one. I do think it set my understanding up better to enjoy this novel much better. In this one we get more of the dark and tarnished lands that we discovered in book one, and I really enjoyed my time with the MC, Lara. I found myself enjoying her even more so in this book than the last. The vividness that Wikoff painted the Lands was just as fantaboulus and detailed that I felt as if I was right there with her 90% of the time and as creepy as that was at times I loved it too. I really don’t want to get into too much of the details of the story and spoil the good parts for you, so for those you will have to scoop up this little read for yourself. While you are at it grab the first one too! You won’t be disappointed that you did! Thanks for another great installment in this series Mr. Wikoff!

This book picks up where the previous book left off. I couldn’t wait to read this book to find out what happens with Juniper and Kyle. When things start falling apart for them, will they find their way back to each other? Their story is one of hope, love and finding forgiveness. I loved their story and the roller coaster it took me on. They are strong, creative and I loved seeing their stubborn side. This is not a standalone, you won’t regret picking up this series. They are a must read!

Colony of the Lost

5 out of 5 stars

The story Colony of the Lost by Derik Cavignano is a horror book that I loved reading. While reading I had a chill going up and down my spine and was on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It grabbed my attention from the very beginning. It had me reading far into the night as I just had to know how it all ends. I loved reading about Jay, Tim, and Sarah. This trio must work together in order to save the town of Glenwood against a force that is powerful and evil. The town’s children are disappearing at an alarming rate. What is happening to them? Will the unlikely trio be able to defeat the evil or will they become its victims as well? Read this book to find out. The story did a wonderful job of laying out the history of the town and land. The book is well-written with plenty of details. I felt like I was right there with the characters. There are also other characters that you are introduced to and I enjoyed reading about the part that they play in the story and how some of them interact with Jay, Tim, and Sarah. Jay is a man that at first, I had a hard time seeing as someone that could help and be a hero. Then as the story continued, I began to see him in a different light and I was rooting for him to succeed. I have always loved horror stories that include the supernatural and this story is a wonderful example of why. There are times when reading I would have to remind myself to breathe. Highly recommended book.

By: Sara Driscoll
5 out of 5 stars

The story Lone Wolf (An F.B.I. K-9 Novel Book 1) by Sara Driscoll is a book that I loved reading. It is suspenseful and had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It is a page-turning thriller that I am glad that I read. I absolutely loved reading about Meg and Hawk. They are part of the FBI’s elite K-9 unit. There is a bond between them and I enjoyed that the book explained some of the terminology used by the unit and that the K-9’s respond to. When a bomb is detonated at a government building Meg and Hawk are sent in to help rescue the living and locate the deceased. This is a stressful job and can get emotionally overwhelming. I could tell that having their K-9, their best friend, there with them helped those on this team cope. Who planted the bomb? That is what a task force has been set up to find out and this duo is part of it. Is the bomber going to strike again? If so what or who would his next target be? Will the bomber be caught, or will the reign of terror and chaos continue? Read this book to find out. I love when an author adds in animals to a story such as Hawk. There are parts of this story that are heartbreaking and others that are heartwarming. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters that are introduced. Some are part of the K-9 unit that Meg and Hawk are part of and others help these two in their investigation. It is always interesting to read about the part these additional characters played in the book and also how they interacted with Meg and Hawk. This is a story that I just couldn’t put down for very long as I just had to know how it ended. This is a thrilling novel that I would highly recommend reading.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have to say this series has hooked me from the very beginning. I loved the first book and I completely devoured this one.

I fell for Alex and Madison so hard so fast. Alex is completely swoon worthy and Madison is a fighter. She recently got out of a relationship with an abuser. The mental abuse she endured was completely heart breaking but she’s free and that’s all that matters. Even though she’s shaken off that ex, it’s hard to break the mental chains of the abuse. Alex fell for her instantly and would do whatever it took to keep her.

This book had everything. It had secrets, lies, a crazy ex and of course lust and love. This series is so different from what I’ve been reading and I love it. Virginia Wine has a way weaving a beautiful story that will hook you from page 1!

The story Finding Juniper (Smoke Series Book 3) by Sadia Ash is an amazing book that I loved reading. I loved meeting and reading about Kyle and Juniper in the first book and was so excited to be reading about them again. The story has intense moments and dialogue. My emotions were going up and down the entire time I was reading it. There were moments when my heart would hurt for both Juniper and Kyle. They are characters that I care about and I can’t help but want to see them happy. Juniper is strong, independent, and stubborn. She is also compassionate and kind. You can feel the emotional push and pull that occurs in this book. The story had me turning pages as I wanted to know what was going to happen next. What does the future hold for Kyle and Juniper? Read this book to find out. I enjoyed reading about the additional characters, the part that they played in the story and their interactions with Kyle and Juniper. The author has written a book that pulled me in and didn’t let me go until I had read the final page. The story is well detailed and had a smooth flow to it. This is a book that you don’t want to miss out on reading. Highly recommended.

Souls Collide by Kristina Beck a four-star read that will strike you. This is the third novel in the Collide series and they can be read as stand alone as I started this one and was a few chapters in before I realised it was a series, I think each one focuses on a different set of characters and Alexa and Kent are sublime characters, I will eventually go back to read the first two and I have added them to my TBR pile as I like the style of writing, the way the story unfolded was natural and honest, it wasn’t rushed, if I had maybe read the series in order I would have given five stars and when I go back and re-read I will have to adjust. Kent was great, he was one thing at first but the more you read the more you know and understand him and know what a true hero he was.

Bree Kraemer has written The Only Series and it leaves you wanting more. She does an amazing job of writing this series because it can be read separately or in the set of books. She introduces fully developed characters that you can relate with easily. You can see these characters in the real world who are your neighbors and not just in a book. I went through the emotional roller coaster with the characters. All the stories are laid back, casual, and at a relaxing pace. If you are looking for a nice series to read at your leisure this is the series for you.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Mother-in-Law by Judy Moore is one heck of a read. All I can say is thank god I do not have a mother-in-law. The book is a suspense with lots of drama and a truly evil and vicious, mother-in-law that is a manipulating, conniving, lying witch. It was a bit slow in the beginning but quickly gained my attention as the story unfolded a few twists and turns along the way. You will either like or hate the characters or have a love/hate relationship with others.

The relationship Brad has with his mother was just weird, almost creepy and I so wanted, no needed, to slap some sense into him. Victoria on the other hand is one brave lady and I admired her will.

The ending was sad but intense and I was a little surprised with some and others I saw coming. All in all it was a quick and interesting read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Debt Collector: An Underground Bad Boys Romance by India Kells is a breathtakingly erotic suspense that will literally leave you gasping for breath. I had to drag myself away to do really mundane tasks like bathroom breaks. Life got in the way, but it also slowed down the pleasurable experience somewhat, making way for the sensually slow and agonising burn.

Tessa and Locke. These two deserve many words, but very few come to mind to adequately describe the impact these two deliver. The story was brutally arousing, violent, shocking (in a bone melting way), decadent, honest, transparent while totally mysterious. The apparently unattainable becomes the hunted. The Locke and Tessa dance is intricate, complex and sometimes harrowing, but the experience is more than worth the tension. Then along comes Gage, and the surprises are relentlessly plentiful. I am addicted to this writing style and will devour any books written this way. It draws a reader in on a new level, and you will be left amazed, turned on and desperate for more. 5 stars

I loved this so much! This was a fast paced, quick read in one sitting kind of story. I truly enjoyed the storyline and love how this author has set up the beginning of this series.

This is my first read by this author and I found the flow to be smooth and absolutely can not wait to read more. Well let me rephrase that, I MUST read more after that ending.

I loved the characters and I especially loved how different the story involving vampires was. I have read a lot of vampire stories in the past and was pleasantly surprised at how this one was told.

I highly recommend this story, I’m not going into any details, I went in to this completely blind and this is one of those books I am so glad I did.

Can’t wait for the next in this series.

Holy hotness!! The Debt Collector by India Kells is a scorching hot read. The heat literally radiates off the page. I have previously read, and enjoyed, books by this author, so it was a no brainer that I was going to love this book too.
Dr Tessa Freeman is an ER doctor who helps women who have fallen into the sex slave trade escape from their ‘owners’. As a result of this she is captured by the leader of the slave trade business.
Locke is a sort of mercenary who is trying to bring the slave trade down by pretending to be part of it. When Tessa is captured, Locke does a deal to bring Tessa into his ‘ownership’
What follows is a very hot, steamy story where Tessa and Locke can’t help but submit to their attraction to one another. But this is no simple love story. Locke is also having a sexual relationship with his best friend Gage. Trying to fight his feelings for Tessa he pushes Gage and Tessa together and the 3 of them indulge in some rather steamy sex sessions. Sessions that will leave you very hot under the collar (and in other places too).
If you are very open minded and enjoy a good steamy read then this book is perfect for you.

Beachcomber Gone is the first book that I have read by Stephanie Queen and it was great even though I was lost because stupid me just jumps into reading a great story in the middle. The characters are great I love the way they play off of each other you could tell they belong together.
PI partners Dane & Shana are ready to tie the knot after years of trying to resist their love affair. But their visit to Shana’s hometown in Australia goes terribly wrong when old enemies track her down. Just when Dane thought they would marry, Shana’s gone…
Dane & Shana travel to Australia so that Dane can meet her family, but they land in a minefield of problems. Shana’s mother is being used as bait by an old enemy Shana helped convict in an old police pension fraud case.
Now the case has been re-opened amid speculation that there was an insider involved. Someone is trying to set Shana up to take the fall. Dane and Shana need to find the dangerous traitor inside her old police department and bring them down to keep Shana out of jail–and to keep her alive.
This is a great story I really enjoyed it now I have to go back to the beginning and read this great story..

Wow – This is a quick and powerful read. I’m not going to say anything about the story because I don’t want to give any spoilers.

This story is fantastically told right from the beginning. It hooked me from the first word. I went in blind, so did not know that this was a complete story in 150 pages. There is a depth and weight to this story that is both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. While it is set in a different time frame that now, it could hold true to today.

I am so torn by this book. I don’t want to give anything of the story away so I can’t do a like/dislike list. What bugs me is that for everything I liked there was a reason to dislike an action as a result of the like. It could have been me and the place I was in when I read it so I’m not going to take any stars away because of it. I feel like I’ve read stories with the same like/dislike seesaw and always enjoyed them.

This story is a slow burn and is very light on foul language and sexy times. It’s more of a PG-17 (yes, I know that’s not really a movie rating). It is a full story with a very strong beginning, middle and end. You can immediately understand that the author had very clear plot points worked out in advance.

In addition to the main characters, there are some fantastic secondary characters who I would like to get to know more of. I see this being an ongoing series that I would enjoy reading.

This is the fourth book in this series. While I have read them out of order as standalones.i would recommend reading them in order.

Kat was raised with a coffee cup in her hands. She loves coffee. Dan owns a coffee shop. He blends his own coffees, making new blends all the time.Seems like a match made in heaven. But nobody has told Kat and Dan. Will these two merge their coffee built romance? Or will Kat spend her Christmas alone?

Allyson R Abbott has wrote a funny little romance. This is a page turner for sure. Her story is clean yet very romantic. The innocent young couple building a relationship around the coffee shop. I live her characters! They could be your best friends. Then to make it around Christmas just adds to her story. This story is young adult safe and just a joy to read. Nicely done Allyson R Abbott!

I love strong characters. Both female and male. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for the RA-RA I am Woman, Let’s all Roar type of power when an author is writing, but I also love when an author creates two equally strong characters whose strengths and weakness so they can each grow both together and individually as people and as a couple.

Alexa knows looks like the typical dumb female. Tall, blonde, big blue eyed. But she is whip smart and knows how to use her big assets., Her big brain that is. She has fought tooth and nail to be at the top of her career and isn’t going to take crap from anyone, let alone some grumpy police officer with a chip on his shoulder.

Kent has had the unfortunate luck of watching this mother die, and now, he might have to watch his sister suffer the same fate. After a crazy string of bad, or not so bad luck, Alexa and Kent keep running into each other and the flame of desires spark, ignite and then burn. Add in with the possibility of Alexa being in serious danger, you have one very hot book.

This book is one for the the reread list! I love this slow burn. I highly recommend this book for lovers of Romance and/Or Mystery Genre readers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It is always a pleasure to fall in love with a new author’s work, especially one with the skills of Kristinia Beck. I was swallowed whole with this novel and I loved every moment of it. Souls Collide is the third book in the Collide Series, but I had no issues reading this as a standalone. I just now get the pleasure of going back and reading the other two books in the series. Especially since this is the final book in the series as well.

Alexa Kramer is living her life to the fullest. She has it all; the job, the best friends, a loving and supportive family, and she has the beauty and brains to boot. Kent Hayes, not so much. He lives his life day to day doing what is necessary and hiding his emotional pain. It is because of this that he is mean and off putting. Both of their worlds are about to change when they literally ‘collide’ with one another.

I could not get enough of this story. The emotions I felt were all over the place. One moment I could be on the verge of tears and the next I could be giggling. Beck really has a talent for balancing the emotions so that it doesn’t get to be too overwhelming. There is some topics of disease that gets brought in and this is dealt with in such a way. I thought it was a perfect handle of the situation. It made it that raw emotion without getting to be too much. The only negative I could come up for this book would be that it ended. So now I am off to grab the other two in the series. Thank you for the fantastic read Ms. Beck.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Something Series by Aubrey Bondurant contains the first three books of this amazing series.

In Tell Me Something we are introduced to Haylee and Josh and the series. Haylee and Josh gave off the chart chemistry from the moment they meet and it only escalates. They have quiet a passionate relationship no matter the emotion they are feeling at the time. I absolutely loved this book and was unable to contain my excitement for the next book.

Ask Me Something is the story of Sasha and Brian. They both work for and are friends with Josh, Brian being his best friend. Sasha and Brain work in different locations but they haven’t allowed that to effect their friendship which continues to build and grow. They are amazing together and as always they don’t gave the easiest path but what a journey.

Bet Me Something is Kenzie and Colby’s story. They are the younger siblings of best friends. She’s Brian’s little sister and he’s Josh’s younger brother. They all grew up together but that didn’t stop Kenzie from developing a crush on Colby at a young age. He steps in to be her white knight when she needed him the most and it went from there. I loved this book and think it is my favorite of the series

If you enjoy romance and some amazingly intimate moments you have to give this a try, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Souls Collide – Kristina Beck

4-stars

Souls Collide by Kristina Beck is a great read! This is the third book in the standalone Collide series, and it’s also my first book by this author but it won’t be my last! This storyline completely captivated me from the beginning until the end.

Alexa and Kent’s story is intense, twisted, emotional, funny, romantic and shocking all at the same time! Their story had me sitting on the edge of my seat wondering how it was all going to play out.
I loved how there were a few different storylines mixed in with this book and how the author did it in such a way that was easy to follow and not confusing at all. I loved Abby’s character as well, I would love to read more about her and her story in the future!

I look forward to continuing with this series now that I’ve read this one!

A Terrible Beauty (Fallen Eagles MC Book 1)A Terrible Beauty by T. Birmingham
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A Terrible Beauty is the first book in T, Birmingham’s Fallen Eagles MC series that leaves you breathless and teary eyed and waiting for the next story in the series! I have already read the second book and I guess one could say you could read them as standalones but I disagree … you would lose so so much by ignoring the order. It is not my first read by this writer but I was very surprised when I realized that it is a completely different genre that I had expected and I promise you, it was a great surprise!
A Terrible Beauty is a military romance mixed with romance and suspense. We have the Fallen Eagles MC in the suburbs of Philadelphia and it is fully made up of veterans. Their goal is to help other veterans and their families. Despite of the horrors they have lived and survived, they still give their all to help the other veterans … It is the WAR that is a TERRIBLE BEAUTY and the writer has given us a terribly beautiful story of the demons that Kit Markham has been fighting to overcome for years, the PTSD that is holding her hostage, the pain she is causing to others when she thinks she is actually keeping them safe … and then there is Lee Deveraux, her high school sweetheart and another vet and the only one who is able to offer her peace and refuge … is she ready to embrace it when the demons are coming out to play and will not stop until they have been paid in blood!
I absolutely love the Fallen Eagles MC series and I hope that the writer will keep gracing us with the stories that are as unforgettable as this one … A Terrible Beauty …
