No Rest for the Wicked (Life is Hell #1)No Rest for the Wicked by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I swear Naomi can do no wrong! I absolutely loved this story. Delilah is a Demon with morals. Malakhi is mysterious. There is attraction between the two. There are a few twists in this story and a few things that caught me off guard. Definitely a great read for those into the supernatural. What I like most about all of Naomi’s stories is that everyone gets represented.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tim Holland had a decorated career taking care of others. His transition to working for Chase Care was far from different. While serving a medical assignment, he met the love of his life, Willow Colson was a dedicated traveling nurse. Their lives both led them back to D.C. but their budding romance hit one snag after another. This books was captivating to see how the characters’ lives developed and changed in a short amount of time and also kept you rooting for the main characters that things wouldn’t fall apart.

Danny Anderson made the ultimate sacrifice, in his eyes, by wrecking his father’s car which resulted in his own death. It was all to save the girl he loved from throwing her dreams in the gutter by taking the fall for what he may or may not have done. His father was found deceased of an apparent overdose, but due to an altercation between the two the prior evening it is deemed suspicious. Sadé believes him innocent but Danny can’t be sure due to the loss of memory from the hit his father dealt him. The journey started when he was alive but the true journey started in his afterlife. His mother is his guide through all the lives he lived and together they get a fuller and broader view of everything. I have listened to stories of people that have experienced past lives or seeing the other side after a NDE and it is fascinating to hear what they describe. I’m glad I went outside of my norm to pick up this book. It is definitely worth the read.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A quick, short read full of adventure! I liked the romance and how the characters interact with each other. The book was easy to get through in one sitting. The story and controversy around the chemo and cancer treatments really hit home for me, but also added to the value of the book. If you think it’s your speed, give it a try!

It Comes From Within (House Valdis #2)It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I never hesitate to pick up any work from this author because they always take me on such an unforgettable adventure! It was a phenomenal quick read for my day. I couldn’t believe how perfectly the author balanced the length of the book with the development of the plot and characters! I have read the prequel and the first book in the series, so I was ecstatic to pick this up and dive right in. I will say that it should not be read as a standalone or you will likely get quite confused with the storyline and characters. I usually have a difficult time with books that have more than two points of view, but this was an exception to the rule. It’s told from multiple points of view, and I absolutely loved it. Xenobia has such huge responsibilities while they try to make things better for the people she loves. I don’t want to give anything away, but the amount of unpredictability in this book is a major win for me! I am crossing my fingers that the author gives us more to this series. If you love dark, paranormal fantasy books, don’t pass this one up!

This was the first book I read in this series, but I have since picked up the rest because this was amazing! I’m sure reading the first books would have given me an even better experience, but even without the background, I was completely and utterly absorbed in this story. It starts out with a bang, and I was immediately invested in the characters. Getting to read about Tim and Willow was full of adventure, love, and had me at the edge of my seat throughout the entire book! If you enjoy romantic thrillers full of suspense, this is absolutely the next book for you. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for us next!

I do have to say that this particular book is a bit darker than the first two and twice as hard to put down once you start reading it. I highly recommend reading this whole series.

Fade Into the Night (Philly Heat series, #5)Fade Into the Night by Becky Flade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series is like fine wine it ages we’ll with each addition 📚❣️😉

When you’re about to bring up your breakfast while reading you know you’re in for a treat ! I know it sounds a little twisted but when you’ve a visual mind and the writing is brilliant it’s inevitable!

Before I go any further I just must say how much I enjoy this descriptive writing style I can almost smell and taste the delicious coffee shop , I can see the elderly couple in the restaurant, I’ve formed a very vivid picture of the characters by
Becky’s descriptions of them … love it when I live a book like this , I get totally lost !

Noah is on the hunt for “Romeo” a killer that leaves rose petals and beautiful music but a grotesque scene behind and right now he’s in Philly but he’s changed his MO and something feels different …..

Sadie our undercover Land Rover driver zoots around on her line green Vespa looking more like a college youngster than the professional forensic artist that she is has crossed paths with Noah , it was a painful time in her life but she found comfort in Noah …..

Noah and Sadie are very comfortable around each other and Sadie is very perceptive of Noah’s character and I think that’s why they work well together

I’m not going to lie I had moments where I thought I’d loose my stomach content , my heart rate went sky high and I held in to the edge of my seat this was a brilliant read !
There’s was enough suspense and tension to keep me on my toes and not get totally lost in Sadie and Noah ( I can’t help it they’re amazing ) this was one of those reads that I wanted to shout about from street corner but held onto to that thought because orange isn’t my colour 🤣🙈

I did enjoy trying to guess what would happen next only to find out I was wrong! It kept me turning the page.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Long Claw Pride Series, though I read it as a standalone and was able to grasp everything in the story I felt. You would benefit by getting to know other characters etc. if you read the series in order, I’m sure. This is also the first book by Brooke May that I have read, and I must say I wasn’t disappointed. The unique premise of second chance fated mates drew me to this book, as in most paranormal mates series the idea of a 2nd fated mate is unheard of.

I really enjoyed Boone and Cricket’s unique story and all the trials and tribulations they faced along the way. Can love like lightning really strike twice for Cricket? Will Boone, who waited his whole life to find his mate, be able to accept a young widow with a child? Will they be able to walk away from the pull they feel for each other or can they overcome their fears and pasts to make a go at it? This is a really touching second chance romance with some major and minor obstacles to overcome! I can’t wait to read more by this author after finishing this book.

This was an entertaining and engaging novel which kept me captivated throughout. Photojournalist Rose Webster was injured after being shoved and landing on the hard pavement whilst at a raucous rally. Not only does she have one arm in a splint, a weakened right hand, and bruised ribs but her camera was also broken. Whilst filling out insurance claim forms her Aunt rings to say that she needs to return to her childhood home in Lake Amelia, to care for her ailing mother. While she’s there Rose decides to have a sort out of the attic and finds some of her late father’s personal items, including a photo hidden in a book and a travel bag which seem to suggest he might have had a secret life. Rose is determined to find out the truth even when she discovers something that shocks the whole family. I found Rose to be a likeable and relatable character who I felt engaged with. Both the setting, especially the small town of Lake Amelia in the foothills of the Adirondacks, and the characters were brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative which made me feel immersed in the story. The intriguing storyline and plot twists kept me hooked and I found this to be a real page turner.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is the sixth in the series. Technically, it works as a stand alone book, however it would be more enjoyable within the series. If you’re a fan of Robin Cook, then this book is for you! The author has a similar style in this medical drama. We follow Tim Holland as he falls in love with Willow Colson and through a surprise medical diagnosis. The bad guys here are big pharma which is sadly believable. A downside was there were many characters to follow which would have been better if I read the other books, and there are explicit scenes. I enjoyed the story and finding out all the hidden secrets. Overall, a fun read!

Fuller Sight by John Stone – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

Fuller SightFuller Sight by John Stone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fuller Sight is a novel that dares to explore topics that are unique, original, thought-provoking, and emotional. The book is metaphysical and takes place outside of how we generally perceive reality and time to be. The story focuses on the main character of an eighteen-year-old boy named Danny who has had a tragic and difficult life. He is determined to save his friend Sade from throwing away her dreams, so he makes the ultimate sacrifice and ends his life. In the afterlife, Danny is reunited with his mom, Nora, who passed away nine years earlier. She guides him through his life and helps him to understand the events that led up to his death, karmic life lessons, and the impact those around him had on his life. Nora also takes Danny through the experiences of several of his past lives. This was an eloquently written book with topics that do not often get talked about such as reincarnation, life, loss, love, hope, death, the universe, spirituality, the afterlife, and karmic life lessons. It had me really thinking about what happens to those we love after we pass away and if they are looking over us. I have always been fascinated by the concept of reincarnation and love how skillfully the author weaved in the previous lives of Danny. A skillfully written masterpiece that will have you pondering your life in both this world and the beyond.

As usual, when I come to write a review for a book by this author I feel like a complete broken record. Each book we read by this author is fun and entertaining and has a great premise to it. They teach kids so many things but in a way that isn’t obvious or off putting.
My kids always completely engage with these stories and this one was no different. We have read it multiple times and enjoyed it every single time that we have. The illustrations are really detailed and creative, they also appeal to my son in particular. This author has gained fans for life in our family and we are already looking forward to the next book.
