My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second of Cray’s adventures that I have read to my kids and they love it. We were so glad to see Cray using his pinching claw for good in this story!

This story teaches a lesson to children about being environmentally conscious in an easy and fun way. I also liked the last page with tips to do so. We look forward to more adventures with Cray.

A Heart So Savage (The Savage Duet #2)A Heart So Savage by April Moran
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was doing my best to patiently wait for this book, and I’m pleased to say that it is a deliciously dark romance that kept me awake for hours just so I could finish in one sitting! Without giving anything detrimental to the story away, I *highly* recommend reading the first book in the duet. The chemistry that King and Ava have is no joke, but this book doesn’t just rely on steamy scenes for a plot. There is plenty of intense danger, action, drama, and a rollercoaster of emotions throughout that will have you at the edge of your seat. Although Kingston was far from my favorite person in the first book of this duet, getting more of his background here really does a nice job humanizing him, even if it is still twisted. If you’re looking for a steamy, tantalizing dark romance to devour, look no further. This is your sign!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Weston is in need of a roommate in order to help pay the bills…and the two roommates he ends up with blossom quickly into an unexpected MMF relationship. Weston, Petra, and Callum share a chemistry that is steamy and off the charts. The dogs add a sweet and humorous element to the story.

There are some twists that I didn’t see coming and quite a range of emotions throughout this quick read. I found myself rooting for their happy ending! The author did an amazing job with this genre. And the epilogue at the end…a great way to wrap up the book!

Miles is a shifter and does not believe the lore of fated mates until he sees Alexa at the bar. While Alexa is battling between her heart and mind when deciding what to do, her past comes back to haunt her. Will Miles be able to find her and keep his mate safe? And will Alexa realizes not everyone is like her ex before it’s too late?!?

I enjoyed this story. I have ready other books by Brooke May and enjoy her writing style. This story had a little twist on your average shifter romance and I found it interesting. I am excited to see what the rest of the series has in store!

Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Book 5)Betrayal of the Gods by Martin Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Relic Hunters: Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Series) by Martin Ferguson . This is the 5th installment in the Relic Hunter series and it follows 2 brothers Matt and Adam. They are continuing their mission to find the lost city of Atlantis. The brothers are facing something they’ve never had to deal with in a battle and that is they have no equipment or supplies to help them fight the battle of their lives. They have to rely on their skills and smarts as they fight. The boys learn so much about Greek myths thru this story and they learn they don’t know nearly as much as they thought they did. There is a side story about Princess Alaina of Atlantis and her fight in the Trojan War as well. This is a fast paced young adult story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and you will want to finish it when you start. I highly recommend reading these in order to help you better understand the story line and characters.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It only took me a day to read this book. I couldn’t put it down, it’s definitely my favorite of the series. (Should I say so far? Is it possible there will be more with Lynn?)
There’s an instant chemistry with Miller and Maisy. Their relationship moved fast but it worked, it felt like I was reading characters who have known each other for years. Bear is awesome, I couldn’t help myself thinking who would name their kid Bear? But his personality is great and you just can’t help falling in love with this kid. I’m glad that Miller got along with him so well too. The family gets some closure with the Doctor and their father’s death and I’m really glad they got this, they needed this. My only fault with the story is the fire and the break in. I felt those were big things and them just being a fluke doesn’t sit right with me. Also, I know “don’t judge a book by its cover.” The cover looks great, I would pick this up in a store just looking at it, but that guy just doesn’t say Miller to me.
This is just a light, feel good story, it has a little spice but not so much that it takes away from the story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really wish my kids were young enough for these books. I like how the author has brought the characters to life and also creates a good way to teach children lessons. The characters are relatable for kids and the illustrations really add to the book. This is a good way for kids to learn how to act within a friendship and learn boundaries and the correct manner in which to act. I really would recommend this book for young kids. Look forward to reading more from this author.

Check Out Audiobook (The Bobbins Sisters Series) by Debra Parmley – Review by Laura Jones

In this book, we meet Betsy, a small-town librarian and Nash, a Marine veteran. Nash has a hard time dealing with headaches and it makes him a bit grumpy, so when Betsy first meets Nash, he’s not the most pleasant individual. However, Nash realizes that he was a little too gruff with Betsy and makes it up to her by helping her out when a winter storm comes, and her car ends up with a flat tire. He offers to give her a ride home, but she’s torn because Nash is a stranger. She gives Nash a chance and realizes that he’s a much nicer man than she had originally thought, but she’s still intimidated by him. Nash had a bad experience with his ex-fiance who didn’t want a man who only had one eye and an eye patch. He’s about to give up on women in general but ends up falling for Betsy when he realizes that she is nothing like his ex, and is in fact, exactly what he’s looking for in a woman. Then Betsy’s sister comes along and makes things difficult with her drama. Will Betsy and Nash end up together, or will the drama her sister brings tear them apart before they can even begin a relationship?

Resisting Nature (Powder River Pack Series) by Brooke May

Resisting Nature is the fourth book in the Powder River Pack Series and is a wonderfully written Paranormal Romance that I absolutely loved reading. I’m a huge fan of this author and have read several books by her. I love that no matter what genre she’s writing she pulls you into their world and makes you feel apart of the story. The characters are relatable, fully developed and some are creative. This Paranormal Romance grabbed me from the first page and I literally read this in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down. This is packed with drama, secrets, action, love,alpha shifters , werewolves, pain , hope and so much more. Alexa and Miles, she’s just wanting a fresh start from the mess her life had been in and she wants to be happy so she trying to start over. Can she find the happiness she’s looking for? Miles thinks he’s found his mate until he loses her. Can he show her that they are meant for one another? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

Resisting NatureResisting Nature by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Resisting Nature was a really good read. With that being said I really dislike any books about werewolves. It was a bit much for me to read this but, being a huge fan of the author I pushed through.

Alexa was saying a guy named Grant who turned out to be a horrible person. He hurt her and forced her to give up her virginity. She ended up pregnant but knew she had to get away from him because he was dangerous. She ended up giving her baby up for adoption but kept in close contact with the family who know has her son. Alexa moved far away In Hopes that Grant will never find her.

Years later she’s at a bar with her friend and right away there is something between her and the bouncer at the door. They both are drawn to eachother immediately. What Alexa doesn’t know is Miles is somewhat like Grant only he’s not a monster like he was. Miles is loving, caring and sweet. One morning when she wakes up alongside Miles who happened to shift during the night at some point, she is very afraid and decides she can’t do this again.

After a month or so of not talking or seeing eachother they end up talking and trying to work things out when Grant shows up out of the blue. Somehow he finds Alexa and he won’t stop until he has his little family back. Somehow he knows, he has a son somewhere out there.

Will Miles and his pack be able to save Alexa ? Will they be able to make it to find where Grant is hiding her or will Miles lose his mate when he finally just got her back?

If this was written by any other author aside from one I love reading, I may not have been able to finish the book, but I’m a big fan of her writing so I’m glad I was able to finish the book.

These books go through each of the Rocklyns children’s journeys on finding their person. And each one is very unique and easy to get lost in. All of the characters are very relatable and each backstory is different which makes for a more interesting read. Overall, this collection of books are very well written and the characters are well developed.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

5 Stars

 

Kingdom of the Ocean is the sixth and final book in the Relic Hunters series by Martin Ferguson. This was a bit of a bittersweet read for me knowing I was diving into the conclusion of this superb series, but also desperately needing to know how everything plays out in the end after everything they/we have been through.
As with the other instalments in this series, this is a fantastic young adult action-adventure with wonderful characters, treasure hunting, the quest for Atlantis, family friendship, historical details, mythology, drama, mystery, danger, investigation, tension, an intriguing & complex plot, high stakes, and a race against time.
This instalment picks up where the previous book left off, so if you are yet to read that book, or are yet to start the series, then I highly recommend that you do so before starting out on this final adventure. There are really important details, bridging storyline/arch, character introductions, backstories, and other important information contained in the previous books which you need to know in order to fully appreciate this fantastic instalment, as well as the series as a whole.
Mr. Ferguson has done a fantastic job of delivering an exciting and fitting conclusion to the series, while ensuring that the various threads that have spanned the series were all tied up. But, I am ever hopeful that there are many more possible Relic Hunter adventures yet to come in the future — as even though the story and threads were tied up (for these six books and one novella)- things are left quite ‘open’ at the end…….. suggesting (at least to my ever-hopeful little heart anyway) that there are many more treasures/legends/myths/adventure left for the team to pursue I will again mention that this series would make a really great movie, TV series, or adventure/RPG game.
Highly recommend for anyone who loves YA epic adventures, history, treasure hunting quests, and mysteries.
Looking forward to seeing what Mr. Ferguson has in store for us next!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Martin Ferguson!

The Rocklyn’s collection was an amazing find. 7 books in one collection, I was all in. Reading about the next generation of the Rocklyn siblings was a ball. The dynamics of each story was amazing, and I kept wanting to read more and thankfully, I didn’t have to return a book to get the next book. I could just keep trucking along. The story building that Alicia does in this world is absolutely breathtaking. I could see the scenery, and the book playing out like a movie in my mind. I could just sit back and enjoy it. My favorite book though was reading about Raina in Rainy Day Lovers. I saw myself in her because I’m the oldest in my family and I’m also the problem solver. She was easily relatable, and i just connected with her. The story had a good pace, and the ending was absolutely perfect. I can’t wait to read more by Alicia!

I feel I was lucky to get all seven books in one go as opposed to separate. I would have been glad to do so even though I sometimes don’t want to stray away from authors I have read before. With that being said this series was good from start to finish. You don’t have to read these in order necessarily but it does help as the stories deal with the Rocklyn siblings. Are you a fan of second chance romance? Perhaps a forbidden love? Or maybe a secret baby? All of those are in this package along with a few more. These were easy to get lost in and hard to put down so make sure you’re not in the middle of doing something that requires your full or immediate attention.

The author has made the characters enjoyable and her writing style makes the story flow so easily that you will get caught up and forget about time. This is book four and is the story of Miles and Alexa. She is running away from an awful situation and hopes the new town and new start will be good. That is until trouble shows up on her door step. Miles, of course, wants nothing more than to love and protect Alexa but she pushes him away. Will Alexa be able to trust Miles?

I have enjoyed this series from the beginning. The author has made the characters relatable and enjoyable to read about. Actor Jackson Levo has a bit of a reputation in Hollywood and it isn’t a very good one. He needs to get his act together if he wants to continue to be in big budget movies. Roseline Butler is a fashion designer who is about to not only have no money to her name but nowhere to lay her head at night. Neither of them have been lucky in the romance department so a fake relationship seems like a win-win. It will allow Ros to have the security she needs to feel safe, and Jackson will be getting good press. But how can they keep from catching real feelings? Just like the other books there is a lot of fighting the feelings but in the end it turns out for the best.

Fashionably Fake is the fourth book in the Kings of Screen series by Morgana Bevan. As expected from Ms. Bevan, this is another fun contemporary romance with a fake dating element, friends-to-lovers, angsty drama, chemistry, steam, push-pull, emotion, banter, humour, taking a chance on love, and tension.
Jackson Levi is a movie star with a bit of a reputation. Rosaline Butler is an unlucky in love fashion designer. So how do these two end up in a fake relationship? What happens when the lines between pretend and reality begin to blur? If you love a fun, sweet, and steamy contemporary romance with likeable characters you can fully invest in, with an engrossing storyline- then this is the book/series for you!
I’m really enjoying this series and can’t wait to see what Ms. Bevan does next!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Morgana Bevan!

The Alpha of the Powder Pack, Mason, has resigned himself to a life of raising his son alone. That is until his wolf gets the scent of his mate in his bar, Riley. She is a biologist and has recently returned home hoping to help in the community. Mason of course knows from the first time he lays eyes on her what is happening. Riley on the other hand is not knowledgeable of supernatural beings which may or may not cause problems. The idea of being in insta love due to the Moon Goddess (or any name that the author gives to this unseen character) having chosen someone has always made me kind of skip of that part of the first meeting, but the author made this seem natural. I have really enjoyed her approach and take on this supernatural being. These stories, at least the first two, seem like they can be read as as a stand alone, but I have a feeling we will see some of these characters in future stories. Even if we don’t it is worth it to read them all.

3.5 Stars

 

Nessie and the Viking Gold is the second book in the Nessie’s Grotto series by Lois Wickstrom. This continues the ‘Nessie’s Grotto’ adventures we started in book one and is another intriguing chapter storybook for children aged 7 – 12 years-old.
It is a delightful fantasy with adventure, myths & legends, action, drama, emotion, secrets, discovery, suspense, challenges, choices, tension, and more.
There are over a dozen cute illustrations sprinkled throughout the storybook which help to bring the whole story to life.
The story is woven around Loch Ness, Nessie – the Loch Ness Monster, Craig & Linda’s treasure, and the challenges that brings. What happens makes for a fun read.
The series (so far):
-Nessie and the Living Stone (Book #1)
-Nessie and the Living Gold (Book #2)
-Nessie and the Celtic Maze (Book #3)
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Lois Wickstrom!

Resisting Nature (Powder River Pack Series) by Brooke May – Review by M Policicchio

Resisting NatureResisting Nature by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I read a bunch of werewolf stuff. This was a different take on shifters and the shifter-verse. I liked how the young wolves shifted early, around 3 years of age. I was not a fan that only males were shifters. It made the shifter-hound storyline with Thea so easy. Of course even when there are she-wolves, there are those that try to latch on to high ranking wolves. Not the point, the point is that I was not a fan that only men got to be special.

Okay. So our story…..Alexa was seduced then abused by a werewolf. She escaped him after she found out she was pregnant. Alexa didn’t tell anyone that she was leaving or about the baby, except her parents who helped her run. Alexa had the baby and gave him up for adoption, hoping this would keep him safe if the ex found her. Alexa went to school and became a lawyer. She moved to Montana with her best friend to continue her new life.

Miles was just another male shifter living the life of freedom and women when he met Alexa. They had an instant connection. He knew she was his mate. Everyone could sense their connection. The only problem was that Miles had to tell Alexa that he was a werewolf, not knowing her history. When Alexa discovered Miles’ secret she walked away from Miles and their connection. She would not do it again. Alexa started seeing a therapist to help her work through her issues. The therapist encouraged Alexa to tell Miles about her past.

As Alexa is finally able to disclose to Miles her history, the ex re-emerges from shadows and takes Alexa. The ex knows about the baby and he wants his son. He takes Alexa to go get his child, with Miles chasing them to rescue Alexa. Alexa is crafty and manages to keep her and the child safe and even manages to escape from her ex. Miles makes it so Alexa will never be haunted by her ex again.

This story has many good points and a few bad. But overall, the good wins out and the story is delightful and at times, very fun. Excellent read.

Deja Brew All Over Again: A Runaway Bride Romance (Love on Tap Series) by Sylvie Stewart – Review by Shea Gilkerson 1/26/24

Deja Brew All Over Again: A Runaway Bride RomanceDeja Brew All Over Again: A Runaway Bride Romance by Sylvie Stewart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is not my first read by this author, but I missed I think book 2 in this series. I will be fixing that problem immediately, as this book was such a cute, fun, quick read.

Miller is definitely a favorite character, both in my opinion and within the book. He’s the one in the family no one expects to turn into Mr. Reliable. However, a runaway bride jumping into his car is a wild situation even by HIS standards. He knows immediately that Masie and Bear are both something special, and it just so happens he can actually help her. Masie finds her interest piqued even more than their instant spark when Miller welcomes both she and her brother into their family circle, despite their obvious differences.

I really enjoyed getting a closer look at Miller and will be going right back to the beginning to be sure I didn’t miss anything! Wonderful prose, absolutely lovable characters, some troubles that draw the love interests together without becoming heavy or overwhelming. So much fun to read.

Cray Saves the Day (The Adventures of Cray Series) by G Pa Rhymes – Review by Ayla Phipps

Cray Saves the Day (The Adventures of Cray on the Bay)Cray Saves the Day by G. Pa Rhymes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Once more love Erica’s beautiful illustrations. G Pa’s rhymes are always a delight when teaching young minds, the importance of picking up our trash. Being a litterbug doesn’t only harm our planet but the animals. Love how the author shows a real-world example of sea creatures being affected in harmful ways by the lack of care when people litter. Remember littering doesn’t just hurt the planet, it hurts all living beings and creatures on it. My oh my what will Cray face next on his adventures in the bay.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a fantastic story from an amazing author. I loved the storyline, how it flowed and the way the author brought everything to life for the reader so easily. The characters weaved right into my heart, especially Miles and Alexa and kept me turning page after page because I just had to know what was next for them. I 100% recommend reading not only this book but the entire series.

Fashionably Fake (Kings of Screen Series) by Morgana Bevan – Review by Jenni Bishop

Fashionably Fake (Kings of Screen, #4)Fashionably Fake by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fashionably Fake is the fourth book in the Kings of Screen series by Morgana. The books in this series can be read as standalones although start at the beginning because you never know what you may be missing. It is a close proximity romance tale in the heart of all the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.
As with the other books in the series it is a light-hearted contemporary romance is a quick and easy read. It is a fun and flirty fake relationship friends to lover’s trope. With a little sass, a lot of chemistry, bit of angst and dash of drama it makes for an interesting journey.
It seems Hollywood is not at all a glamourous as people believe. It is a place where you can easily get caught up in the hype, the not so glamourous side of things and the always ever-present people around you demanding things. Is there really time for love or the farce of one.
Ros and Jackson relationship has a lot of people standing in their way making it harder for them than it has to be. I loved the easy banter and between them. The story is told in dual POV giving an insider edge to the characters and who they are.
She’s about to lose it all but when given an offer she can’t refuse her luck is just about to change.
He needs to sort himself out or he is going to lose it all but maybe she is the solution to his problem.
If you want to know what happens then have a read.
I look forward to more in the series.
