My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I enjoy her writing skills that make her stories come to life on every page. Her characters are written with a lot of spunk and heart. This book is no different. This is a well written story about Seraphina and a hockey player that she has failed a couple of times in the past. She is determined not to fail him a third time. This is a great romance story that is fast paced and hard to put down. A story where the author used details to make the story realistic which I had no problems picturing myself in this story. The characters are relatable and add so much to the story. They have great growth and chemistry throughout. They pull you into their story with ease and keep you there until the end. I really enjoyed this book and I think you will as well. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

Recipe For Revenge is the second book in the April May Cozy Mystery series by Hazel Smith. This proved to be an interesting and fun cozy murder mystery- a whodunnit with quirky characters, drama, intrigue, a little suspense, a plot for revenge, crime and investigation, secrets, a journey of discovery, a race against time, high stakes, tension, and intrigue – which made for a light-hearted and entertaining read.
April is a reporter who is new to town. Here she is drawn into a murder mystery with some puzzling developments. Along with her dog, Ralph, she sets about digging up clues, uncovering secrets, and revealing the truth. With the stakes being quite high, April is in a race against time to solve the investigation before it’s too late. What happens makes for an intriguing read.
Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Hazel Smith!

The Uncrowned King (The Blood Prince, #2)The Uncrowned King by Ayla Marie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

The Uncrowned King is the second book in The Blood Prince Trilogy by Ayla Marie. This follows on from the first book, so I highly recommend reading The Blood Prince before starting on this instalment. There is a lot of important information, character details, and backstory contained there that you will want to know in order to fully appreciate this book.
It is another engrossing YA story which had me intrigued and invested in- right from the get-go. The story is an action-packed adventure with danger, dramatic developments, twists, powers, agendas, and much more. A really well-woven story with superb world-building and interesting characters.
I need to know what happens next so bring on Book #3- I can’t wait.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Ayla Marie!

4.5 Stars

 

Seraphina is the fourth book in the Heartstrings series by Brooke May. Even though this is the fourth book in the series, you don’t have to have read the first three books in order to enjoy this one. Each book in the series focuses on one of ‘Cupid’s’ chosen ones- we follow as a member of his team helps humans find love. But, in saying that, each book is a great read in its own right, and reading the entire series helps to build a better understanding and appreciation of the stories.
We have met Seraphina in the previous books, and to be quite honest from those ‘interactions’, I really wasn’t sure I was going to ‘like’ her enough to enjoy this story or be able to ‘invest’ in it. But I need not have worried as Ms. May ensured that she won me over- as did Seth and Marron- Seraphina’s assignment.
I love how Ms. May has crafted such wonderfully quirky characters who each have their own unique personalities, quirks, and flaws. Seraphina was so much more than she first appears- which made this story all the more fun to follow.
This is a fairly light-hearted and fun paranormal romance with cupids, drama, chemistry, connection, redemption, and emotion. Will Seraphina succeed in finding a love match for a scandal riddled hockey player? You really should read all the engrossing developments for yourself.
Looking forward to Book #5!

Thank you, Brooke May!

Seraphina has had it with her task of cupid and her target Seth Maxwell. He is a tabloid nightmare and more difficult to match then she thought possible. Seraphina has a plan though to make the perfect match, will Seth find his happily ever after or will Seraphina fail at the match?

Fun read. I liked that Seraphina was different then than what you would expect from Cupid. Seth is an entertaining bad boy who is not happy with the changes he has to make. Great read for the holidays.

The Uncrowned King (The Blood Prince Book 2)The Uncrowned King by Ayla Marie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Illena is nothing without its people. I have eagerly awaited book two in this unique world for over a year and it’s finally here. The author, Ayla Marie, does not disappoint with book two of the Blood Prince series. Yes, this is a book that reading book one first is a must as this is a continuation of the first book. Three perspectives as the previous book did Leo, Cael, and Elana.
Leo, Cael, Byrne, and the kids have fled Wate with great loss, but they did it they found the bay. Arkezo, Leo’s place of origin, or at least where his father is from. He’s found his Bloodline and the family that comes with it. Cael always at Leo’s side shares in the unease of the change from the shadows to the finery of royalty and holding on to who they are and not letting their values be influenced. Elana is still in Wate, suffering still under fear of her father, Cassien. But she’s only remained for a purpose a life thought lost to Leo, Cael, and their siblings. Elana can’t leave until the timing is right to get him out too. Leo and Elana hold each other in a sacred place in the others’ souls a light to keep going until they can be reunited. Leo finds several new titles amongst the people of Illena, that make him feel inhuman and uncomfortable as he fights against the rigid lifestyle he’s forced into. Discovering he has a cousin, Ares, that helps them understand this new lifestyle, Leo refuses to turn his back on the people of Illena as the other bloodlines do. After he and Cael save a family from a house fire in the Riv, the slums of Arkezo, things begin to take a more rapid shift. Leo proves that his blood is not more important to him than the blood of the people. A country is made of its people not the other way around. Everyone is listening, and when the truth is revealed, Leo is left with a dark choice.
Will Leo succeed in finding peace for his family to live in? Can Ares and the other Bloodlines be trusted? The world grows and seems to come full circle for the Heal siblings as they find themselves in similar situations as before. While the world grows darker and the people more twisted, Leo and his siblings find small moments to steal smiles and giggle with each other, to share an unspoken hope of peace. Left speechless by the events and yet not surprised as Leo seeps into your soul and you know what his decisions will be before they happen. He lives to protect those that he loves. Now it’s Elana’s turn to go in search of who she loves. I am already waiting for book three for the grand finale of this unique and all-consuming series that is The Blood Prince.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’m very familiar with this author, so I didn’t hesitate to give this book a shot. Seraphina is a sweet story. A bad boy finding his way again. With some romance thrown in.
How would you feel if Cupid/a Cupid helper ended up on your doorstep?
Well that’s exactly what happens in this story.
Seraphina ends up on the doorstep of the one man she’s tried to help twice and failed.
Is the 3rd time the charm?
Seth is a hockey bad boy. He’s constantly receiving bad publicity. He only cares about himself. He is a selfish teammate. Yet these are all qualities he’s developed over the years. He was never this guy when his grandmother was alive.
Can he be reformed?
Mallen is one of the many who helps keep Greater Chances up and running. For kids that don’t have the same advantages due to their families social/financial standing in society. So one day when a hot shot hockey player comes in from the local pro-team she has every reason to be skeptical. What is he getting out of this?
It wasn’t until Cupid’s Helper revealed herself that she learned the true purpose of what’s in play.
However, is that enough?
Can the character’s in play keep their ego in check for the greater good of the story?
You will just have to read and find out!

This was my first time reading a book by this author. This is book 2in the series but it can 100% be read as a standalone. I liked the beginning of the book but the ending was just okay to me. I liked the dynamic between the characters a lot and I did feel like a detective myself trying to figure out the plot.

I’ve read a few of Brooke May’s previous books and really enjoyed them. This series did not disappoint! It was such a cute and funny story. Quick and enjoyable read! Another of Cupid’s helper is Seraphina, quick to anger and thrown into quite a challenge for her next assignment. A popular hockey play for all the wrong reasons. Seth does a much better job at finding trouble rather than finding love. Quite a comical journey to getting to where he is at to where he needs to be.

Wicked Ends (Hidden Valley Elite #8)Wicked Ends by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wicked Ends picked up exactly where it left off in the previous book! Who can forget that cliffhanger!!!!!!

Shane has always been a mystery to me. Throughout the series, I wasn’t sure if I liked him. In the previous book, I fell hard for him, and I can honestly say he became my favorite character. He appeared so arrogant, and boy did he have a stubborn streak. I had no idea what heavy baggage he was carrying from his past. I didn’t always agree with his actions, but part of me could see why he did the things he did.

I was in Winter’s corner from the beginning. She was beautiful and intelligent, and the girl had perseverance and strength. I’m not saying she was perfect. She was far from it and did hurtful things to others during her childhood. Just ask Shane. The things she did, like Shane, were reactions to her painful, painful past. That’s why they made such a perfect couple.

The series does encompass some dark, emotional aspects, and some of the main characters are less than loveable in the beginning. However, Vaughn is so talented at bringing light and love into each book. The journeys to their happy endings are fraught with obstacles, mostly in the imperfections and flaws of the characters, but those hard times and roadblocks are what bring the love and light into each book! She balances both the dark and light so perfectly!

I felt like Vaughn gave each book such an appropriate title, and the one she chose for this one was perfection!!! It was a wicked end to the series and in all the right ways!!! The epilogues were icing on the cake! Thank you, Isla Vaughn, for letting me see how each character I have grown to love was doing in the future. I highly recommend this series!

This has been a brilliant series and while they can be read as standalones I highly recommend you reach them in order not only because you owe it to yourself as a spoil for being an amazing human but because in a way they are linked because of the characters and references to them , just my humble though ( but really read them all (😉🤣❣️📚)

So we’re back in McIntyre County and things are heating up literally and figuratively 🔥Sheriff Shane Hamilton had his hands full with a flame of arsons , 2murders and a personal weight on his shoulders so his feathers are ruffled when the hot ( pardon the pun ) FBI Liza Bartholomew comes onto the scene …..

Liza Bartholomew is no stranger to me or McIntyre County but this time there a lot more at stake for her , her career is on the line , she’s out for vengeance and matters of the heart come into play , this girl has alot going on …

Shane realises that his crime spree is related to the manhunt Liza is on and against all odds he decides to work dose by side with her and they share professional stories and facts but also personal and things start get a little hairy when their friends and loved ones are in danger because of this case and while there was a threat I was scared they’d give up on each other but they drew their strength from one another and man I was on the edge of my seat want to close my eyes but then I’d drop my kindle and that’s not a good idea and I’ll have missed the good parts 🙈🤣

Each book is better than previous if that makes sense , it’s like red wine really it just gets better with age 😉

With this challenge that Faida faces, she must find a way to make sure Robert can find his love match before it’s too late. I highly suggest reading this series in order as tidbits here and there make more sense as you progress along with each book.

I absolutely loved this book. It’s not for the faint of heart. Lots of triggers for some I guess but, it made the book that much better. Definitely a dark read. I love how Kingston knows who Ava is. He didn’t just have his men grab a stranger to hold captive until someone pays his debt. Kingston knows Ava and her brother. He also knows what her brother is capable of and just how Ava is pretty much a sitting duck in this whole book. Kingston might be holding her captive to use her to pay off her brother debt but, if he didn’t get to Ava first l, someone else might’ve and as much as Ava fights Kingston and tried to escape, the reality is, she’s safer with him then anyone else. He’s very protective of her and won’t let anyone else near what’s his and right now, she is his to do with as he pleases. Ava is his little lamb who can be quite feisty when she wants to be. She doesn’t just sit there and wait to see what happens. She tries to find ways to escape even though that’s the worst thing she can do. I cannot wait to see what the next book has in store for the readers. This was definitely a 5 star read for me.

Children of the Wild is the first book I have read by Krysta Tawlks and a book my middle-grade kids will love! (I always read books before them, you never know what someone might sneak in, and I am a horror lover so have been properly traumatized lol). This book is a historical fantasy that is full of coping with all the big emotions kids go through, such as anger and love. The characters and settings are written so well and beautifully that you can really see yourself in the story, even with all the fantastical creatures. I really loved that the story deals with a young boy that has a lot of self doubt but learns to find himself. This is such a great under-lying lesson in a wonderful story and I hope to pick up more by this author! Very well done!

Meanwhile he locks Ava in a cell and tries to fight his overwhelming attraction and affection towards her. Lots of action packed sex scenes without actually having penetrative sex so Ava’s virginity remains intact.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Uncrowned King is the second book in the deliciously dark The Blood Prince trilogy by Ayla Marie. I was introduced to Ayla when I read her first book The Blood Prince and said she is one author to watch, and she certainly is. She is still in high school, but her work is wonderful, and she has a great knack at storytelling.
The Uncrowned King is another intriguing YA fantasy and shows Ayla Marie’s natural talent. Even though it is a YA story it can be read by anyone of any age. I am 61 and I enjoyed it.
It is an interesting tale that you won’t be able to put down. The world building is spot on, and the story became so engrossing that the pages kept on turning. Sleep is overrated anyway. Ayla is just as good if not better than some of the seasoned authors I have read.

This is a great read that is action packed with lots of danger and hidden agendas, drama with lots of twists and turns that will have your heart pumping and you will be on the edge of your seat.
I am not giving away any spoilers because it is a story that should be explored on your own. Do yourself a favour and delve into the world of The Blood Prince.
Can’t wait for the next book.

It’s been a while since I have enjoyed the goings on of the Brookes Cupid’s and was excited when I saw this new book out. These Cupids have all the right intensions but not everything goes to plan. You will fall in love with them and their quirky ways.
Seraphina is the fourth book in the wonderful romantic comedy The Heartstrings Series. The books in this series are funny, fun, original and refreshing.
This story that drew me in from the start and I found myself getting lost in the story. It’s easy to get lost in the story and you can’t help but fall in love with this quirky cupid. Laughing out loud with her antics as she tries to right her wrongs.
Seraphina is not like the other cupids; she is fiery and sassy and is determined to help this hockey superstar who is full of himself find love. If it means she has to knock him over the head with whatever she has to get him off his high and mighty pedestal she will.
Seth thinks he is all that but all that has gotten him in trouble on more than one occasion, not that he cares. Let the mayhem begin!
Grab a drink and settle in for an entertaining afternoon read.

I have to admit I love finding new authors and books. This was definitely one great find. I love to be plunged into the dark fantasy world that this author has created. I like the fact that the main character has a disability and will not let it hold her back. I love how the author is able to bring the characters to life. The story is created and it unfolds leaving me wanting more. I really did not want to put this book down and I really cannot wait to read more from this author. This was a great diversion from my total favorite genre of paranormal romance.
