My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book surprised the heck out of me. Wow wow wow. I enjoyed this so much! Such a intrigue filled and creative book. I haven’t read a boom in this trope in so long and it’s because I haven’t found any that held my attention but this book gave as good as it gets. The characters were so well plotted and I loved learning them. Cannot wait to find more from this author because she put me on one heck of a ride with Shadow Bringer.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. The intertwining stories of the two couples was well written and real. I loved meeting Jasmine, Blake, Lucy , and Luke. I really liked the fact that we were able to see the story from each of their perspectives, therefore getting more of a visual on the story. It was a realistic portrayal of finding love and the drama that can happen in that journey. I look forward to reading the next installment of this series.

Reckless Love: A Small Town Slow-Burn Forbidden Love Romance (The Bennetts of Langston Falls Book 4)

I loved Becky and Glen so much and was cheering for them from the beginning. Everyone deserves a second chance, but Glen was lucky they gave it to him after the history they all share.

I get that Becky is the baby of the family and older brothers are supposed to be super protective but I think the Bennett boys took it too far.

So many little details that are minor individually but together they add depth to the story and characters.

I have read several if not all of the books by Ms. Fletcher and have not been disappointed or left wanting more from that couple.

I’m hoping that there will be at least one more after the next one is released. Love knowing how everything turns out and there is one character I hope gets a chance to find love.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tracker (The Talisman Series) by Tam DeRudder Jackson. This is the 6th installment in the Tailsman series but actually is a prequel so I think it should be read before the others. This is the story of Lynette and Riley who are trying to find their mate before a certain age. When Lynette goes to a party with her friends as does Riley and his friends. When they meet they know automatically they are mates but never dreamed it would happen so fast. The Gods wanted them to meet quickly but Morrigan will stop it if at all possible. Lynette doesn’t know what her skill is just yet and has to fight quickly. Riley is already a skilled warrior and has no problem in the battle and is ready to protect Lynette at all costs. Lynette figures out her place is to be with Riley at all times. The story ends with Lynette finding out what her skill is and how to use it along with Riley being by her side. Such a great love story!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Faking the Fall (Buckeye Falls Book 4) by Libby Kay is a great contemporary romance.

If Alice Snyder didn’t already know about her reputation, Buckeye Falls would be happy to remind her. She may be descended from the First Family in the town, but that doesn’t mean she follows the rules. She’s finally back home after ten years of traveling and attending school, and she’s eager to settle down—or at least unwind for a bit. Her neighbors are adamant about finding her a husband, which is the problem. There must be a method for her to get rid of them.James Gibson, an artist who is divorced, is eager to start painting again after leaving New York for the tranquility of a rural Ohio village. The only issue is that he is totally barred. He’s at a crossroads in his career and, despite his best attempts, his collection of canvases is blank.

Every page had you hanging on every sentence and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It is a very unique story with even compelling people. The story really transports you into this world. I couldn’t put the book down.

Necromancy the MusicalNecromancy the Musical by Debbie Hibbert
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was an incredible read that left me wanting more. I really enjoyed it so much that I couldn’t read it fast enough it felt like. The Main character CeCe was unique. Solving Crimes with her father but also has responsibility towards the dead being a Necromancy. This book was super fun to read, and I really hope there is more to come. The twists and turns in this book really had me wanting to know what was going to happen next. The characters were hard not to either cheer for or hate or love. And I really loved the New Orleans feel to this book, I have never been there, and this book made it seem so real. This is a wonderful paranormal mystery with necromancy, crime and investigation, supernatural, suspense, voodoo, drama, twists and turns, humour, and so much more. Highly recommend this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 6 in the Logan McKenna series. You can read any of them as a stand alone book, but I recommend reading them all in order. You get the best experience that way, I believe. I’ve really enjoyed following along with Logan and her journey in life. I feel like I’ve gotten to know her over these past six books. This book does start a little slow inn my opinion, but having read all of the previous books in the series, I knew it wouldn’t continue that way. The story jumps far within different time periods. It does so gracefully and with ease.

Tracker (The Talisman Series)Tracker by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tracker is part of The Talisman Series and is a prequel to the other books in the series. It is a paranormal romance full of drama, danger, action, suspense, mystery, intrigue, Celtic Mythology, and fated mates. The story is told from multiple POV and centers around the characters of Riley and Lynette. In the beginning of the series these two were a couple already but this tells how they met. Riley is a skilled warrior who only cares about having a good time and going out to party with his friends. He is cocky, arrogant, and a bit self-absorbed. Riley has completed the sign ritual to begin his quest for a mate but has no desire to find his mate. Enter Lynette who immediately captures Riley’s attention and he instantly knows she is his mate. She is kind, sweet, brave, and down to earth which balances out Riley’s attitude. Lynette has talisman talents but is unsure as to what they are just yet. Riley and Lynette attempt to get to know one another but the evil goddess Morrigan is determined to keep them apart. The ensuing story is a battle of good versus evil as Riley and Lynette battle against Morrigan in their attempt to be together. A great read that kept me reading until the end. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Truth About Myths is book 3 in The Winemakers Series by Giovanna Siniscalchi. In this story, we go along with Viscount Henrique as he is tasked with accompanying Princess Isabel on a trip to Spain. Isabel is Henrique’s best friend’s sister and should certainly be safe from his rakish ways, right? I really love this series. Giovanna has the ability to make even the rakish characters attractive. I really enjoyed the dynamic between Isabel and Henrique. I’m a sucker for opposites attract. This book carried all the beautiful writing and vivid detail that Giovanna’s stories are known for. I adore this series. There is plenty of passion, steaminess, and political intrigue to keep you entertained. Everything is well-balanced.

Melt My Heart (North Fork Series Book 3) by Alicia Street – Review by Brandy Rymer

Melt My HeartMelt My Heart by Alicia Street
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Alicia Street really outdid herself this time with this 3rd book in the North Fork Series! Melt My Heart most certainly lived up to its name, because when I was done reading this book, my heart not only melted, but I wanted to go out and adopt a cute little puppy (not that I could, my Siamese cat would not be pleased). This romance all starts by chance with Caleb Westfall, a rich playboy who is joint CEO of the Westfall Yachtworld with his big brother Tyler, who runs into a gorgeous woman (Wynter) leaning under a car trying to lure out a stray dog. This little guy is such an integral part of bringing these two strangers together to give love a chance, despite both of them having bad past relationship experiences. Wynter not only works at the restaurant that Caleb frequents on a regular basis with either his big brother, Tyler, or dates that never seem to last a day or two, but she also helps her cousin run an animal rescue. Caleb has never noticed Wynter before, usually getting the blonde, bustier waitress, but one night Tyler and Caleb get moved to Wynter’s tables to the surprise of both Caleb and Wynter. There is definitely obvious heat between these two, and Tyler enjoys joining in and antagonizing Wynter, trying to get Caleb to admit he’s attracted to their stunning waitress. The stray puppy is Caleb’s in on working his way into getting to know Wynter better, especially since he’s the only person that the stray puppy seems to connect with. Will this puppy be able to bring Wynter and Caleb together, or will they be a lost cause? You won’t want to read this newest book in this series, I was so excited to find a sneak peek into Tyler’s story at the end of this book, where we get to read about his own trial of seeking love, taking us back a bit in time before he married his wife. Don’t skip over the bonus, you will regret not reading how Tyler came about meeting Caroline.

The Taste of Light is book 2 of The Winemakers Series by Giovanna Siniscalchi. In this book, we follow Pedro and Anna.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another enjoyable, engaging and heartwarming romance set in the small town of Langston Falls. I love being back with the Bennett family, and I really felt for Becky Bennett who has four very fiercely protective older brothers. I loved this slow burn, forbidden love story between YouTube sensation Becky who’s cooking show, The Farmer’s Daughter is a big hit, and lumberjack Glen. For Becky although she loves being an online success and the queen of Bennett Farms, she still daydreams about working in the garden of her own house wearing her big floppy hats and overalls. Glen and Becky’s family do not get on, not surprising after Glen nearly killed one of her brothers, and she never expected to develop feelings for him but now that he’s sober, he’s more humble and is easy to talk. When their secret pining is exposed and knowing her family will never approve Becky leaves town, followed by Glen. The two frenemies can’t fight their feelings any longer which results in a steamy and passionate night together, however, as their relationship develops a dark secret is revealed. As usual the descriptive narrative brought both the small town setting and the characters vividly to life, which made me feel fully immersed in the story. The chemistry between Becky and Glen sizzled off the page and I liked how their forbidden romance developed throughout the book. I was hooked from start to finish and the promised HEA!

Sarge by Stuart Ledwith is a novella by Stuart Ledwith. This is a short but very sweet about a young man named TJ who delivers packages to help put food on the table. His life takes a very different turn and he becomes the man known as “Sarge” from Mission 3047. The story is inspiring and right to the point. We see how the kindness of another can lead to a life Sarge had not headed towards. It was also nice to see the romance between Sarge and his wife and how they came together. The book is a very entertaining backstory to this character.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Becky has always done what she can to support her father, brothers, and the farm….while also building her own business via her YouTube following. Lately, however, she is finding herself feeling more alone. But, when everyone goes out of town, imagine her surprise when the one man that she ends up spending time with is the one her family would never accept.

Glen has been making amends for his past digressions. He has found peace working on the farm alongside the Bennetts. But, as his feelings start growing for Becky, he knows that he needs to approach with caution. His history with the family is not going to make it easy. Once he’s all in, though, he know he can do with Becky by his side. But, as long-held secrets come out and the brothers make it known that they will not accept this relationship, is Becky strong enough to stand up to her family?

I enjoyed this story. I could feel the struggle Becky was dealing with as she went back and forth between keeping her family happy and making herself happy. If you’ve read the previous books, you know what Glen has done in the past and how hard it must be for the family to forgive. But, people grow and change and can become better versions of themselves with the proper help. I think Glen is doing just that. I was rooting for him throughout the story and was hoping these two would get their happy ending. It was another good story in this series.
