My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Wonderful YA cozy mystery that I enjoyed so much! This is my first book I have read by this author and I really loved this story. I love the mix of magic, mystery, murder, witches, secrets and intrigue. Already to dive into book 2….I am so glad I read this story….what a treat.

Mia is a typical 15 year old..or so she thinks. She finds out by her mother and a few of her mother’s friends, that she is a witch. This surprises Mia in so many ways and was eager to learn more what this really means but also finds a friend in a cat she has been feeding at her family’s restaurant. When Mia finds out that her feline friend is special, Mia and Gumshoe create this bond. Gumshoe has a story but trying to piece it all together on where he came from, Gumshoe and Mia work together to piece together his past life. While Mia helps at her family’s new restaurant, Forbidden Fruit, she eagerly waits on opening night to help out her father in the kitchen to help with a successful first night….but something horrible happens as patrons become sick at the end of the evening and even creates chaos as some patrons pass away. With her family name at stake and their new restaurant, Mia tries to find out whom may be responsible for these deaths that were caused by a very poisonous mushroom. Will Mia and Gumshoe be able to solve this mystery before more lives are lost? Will Gumshoe find out what happened with his past life?

Definitely read and find out! This is a great story..

When We Fell Again by Julie Archer – Review by Megan Pesek

When We Fell AgainWhen We Fell Again by Julie Archer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Some relationships are doomed to fail until those involved grown up. Alexis and Jordan have a deep past, but haven’t seen each other in years until Lex is tasked with managing the tour for Jordan’s band. Old feelings and chemistry are palpable during the tour, but neither is sure if it’s the right answer. In the end, they have to decide if ghosts of the past or a chance to start fresh will win.

Jordan went through a lot of trauma and change throughout the book. He matured not only in his relationships, but also as a person. Alexis is driven, but rarely puts herself first. There were some heavy topics, but it was well written into the storyline. I was hooked on this book early and it never let up.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m really enjoying reading the Logan McKenna Mystery/Thriller series. I was lucky enough to start from the beginning of this series.
Vanishing Day is about a subject that might be hard for some to understand. Being abused by your husband is not what anyone expects to happen to them. I’m sure getting out of that situation can be very difficult. I appreciate the way the author portrayed Lori and her daughter Shannon’s situation and what Lori is trying to do for her daughter.
Overall, like the other Logan McKenna stories, the author does a great job of world and character building. There are many twists and turns in the story which keeps things interesting. Looking forward to reading the next book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shirl and Eee-aah are on another adventure. This time, Eee-aah wants to introduce Shirl to her favorite snack, Zibs. When they locate some, Shirl tries one without paying for it. Baa-Kerr is not pleased and choses to keep Shirl working since she stole from him.

It’s no secret that Lois Wickstrom is one of my favorite authors!! Her stories are great by themselves but add in that there is always some sort of Science/STEM component and that makes them even better! The illustrations are also extremely well done in her books.

I highly recommend this book, along with all her others, for any home library, daycare, school, grandparent’s house, etc!

The Earl, Her Reluctant Guardian by Wareeze Woodson – Review by Shannon Fowler

The Earl, Her Reluctant GuardianThe Earl, Her Reluctant Guardian by Wareeze Woodson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Pretty good story for my first book by this author. Historical romance is always a sweet fade to black kind of love story. Much too mild for my liking, but still good. This book has different story lines that I would think would cause confusion, but Woodson writes in such a way that each developing story was easy to follow, even when they began to connect and overlap.

Main character, The Earl himself, comes across as an adult, a grown man too old for shenanigans. While his reluctant guardian, Vanessa, the other main character, seems to attract trouble, or at least she is always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Recommend this innocent historical romance with a twist.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this story! From the very beginning, the author draws you in with suspense and intrigue. You’ll also find yourself drawn to the main character, Vanessa, from the first pages. She is such a wonderful character with amazing strength displayed as she is figuring out her life through the book as she returns home following the death of her uncle to find her uncle’s wife running the show. Jacob is also there and not so keen on being responsible for Vanessa..or is he?

Though this is a historical romance, the story also has a great deal of suspense and a paranormal twist, all making it very difficult to put down. The setting and concept was so intriguing and just not what I expected, but I loved this story! It was very well written and engaging and I highly recommend it.

This was an overall good book, was kind of harder to get into from the first, but I was glad to be able to see things from a different side. As life tries to go on, sometimes the past will come up to haunt you. I applaud Paulette for writing such a book that deals with sensitive topics that the everyday person just struggles to talk about.

You and Me Equals LoveYou and Me Equals Love by Marina Hanna
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and entertaining contemporary romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Kate and Jenny have been best friends since they were sixteen, and for ten years they have been through thick and thin together, but then a boy came between them. The storyline follows Kate’s journey which includes many trials and tribulations, whilst her past experiences have left her with a fear of relationships and trust issues. Kate then falls in love, although she’s done everything she can to avoid doing so, but has to decide if she will trust her boyfriend or her best friend. I found the characters likeable and relatable and I liked how the story was told through the multiple characters POV, which made me feel more engaged with them. I liked how Kate’s relationship with Ben developed throughout the story and how their chemistry came across in the narrative. I did find the storyline was a bit predictable, however I felt immersed in the characters world and thought it was a fun, heartwarming and romantic read.

This book is a fantastic enemies to lovers romance. It is fun, engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. I loved the connection between the main characters. They had chemistry in every interaction and it was great to see the connection develop as the book went on. The story was really well thought out. It fit the characters well and kept me invested until the end.
This is one of my favourite tropes and this author has done a great job with it. I love how every book I read by them is different from the last. It keeps it interesting and refreshing. This is a well written and great story that I would highly recommend.

Cruel Truths (Tessa and Jordan #3)Cruel Truths by T. Christensen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this story. Grumpy boss and enemies to lovers tropes are one of my favorites and this one covered all those bases. So many times I was angry, frustrated or irritated at the male lead. He drove me crazy just like he did Lindy. In fact, a couple times I really didn’t understand why she stayed. I really liked Lindy. She is determined, smart, sassy and doesn’t put up with his guff. I don’t know how she did it day after day and time after time dealing with him, but kudos to her. I suppose it could be the intense sexual attraction that they have with each other. I mean OFF the Charts!

The story is amazing in the respect of the dreams, the hopes and the desires that are played out. It has many ups and downs and drama filled moments that filled my heart or made it go pitter-pat. This is one that can be reread and enjoyed.

This is the third in the series, but it can be read as a standalone. There is mention of characters and situations that we see from the first two books, but it doesn’t really interfere with this story. So grab it and enjoy

Enemies to lovers is my absolute FAVORITE trope!! So I had to read this one! I’m not sure why but I love the toxic type when it comes to my books. The push and pull just has me on the edge and I love the torture. The angst, the drama, the hate, the love…give it all to me! And that’s what this book did. I enjoyed every page! Great characters with great character development and I just all around enjoyed this read. I haven’t read the others before this book…but I’ll definitely be doing that now. So good.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Tessa and Jordan series, it can be read as a standalone read which is great. I loved this story, the author does an amazing job with the characters making them feel realistic. I especially felt a connection with Lindy. She is a fun person who loves her family and is prepared to stand up for herself when she needs to. I love how she wasn’t afraid to stand up to Cade even when he was dominant and intimidating she didn’t back down.
The chemistry between them is electric pretty much from the beginning but the dynamic of Cade being her boss and Lindy really needing her job to support her family put road blocks in their way.
This story is a push and pull enemies to lovers romance. There is a thin line between love and hate and this story definately goes back and forwards over that line which leaves you wondering if they will ever get together and embrace their true feelings.

Cade already knew from the moment he met her that Lindy was the woman for him but will she ever come around and see that for herself? Should you ever mix a business relationship with pleasure? And when an opportunity comes along where they fake a relationship what happens when those fake feelings become real? With no escape and a lot of time spent in Cades company will Lindy be able to keep denying the connection she feels? Will Lindy ever fulfill her dream of getting her own fashion line? Will her connection with Cade help or hinder her dreams?

This was a fast paced read that I loved and I was completely invested in this couples story as they navigate the path ahead of them.

Kurt used to spend a lot of time in his club, Club Nexxus. After serving in the military and coming home suffering from PTSD, he began to lose interest. But one day while checking in, he saw a face he never thought he’d see again – Arely, the little sister of his best childhood friend. He had heard the path his old friend had taken and couldn’t believe it. He was just surviving until he saw her again, especially when he learned she was working in his club to stay hidden from the cartel for her protection.

Arely was involved in human trafficking. The secrets she learned there can be very dangerous for the people running the ring, so once she got out she went into hiding. Bartending in a private club offers a lot of protection in the form of the company knowing everyone who comes in and out, security, and the dim bar makes her feel protected, as well. When she sees Kurt there one day, she can’t believe she is seeing him again. When she is located at Club Nexxus, will she survive? Will she ask for help? Will Kurt help her?

Steamy read, wonderful character building, great chemistry. This is a standalone but the enjoyable writing shines through.

This is the first book that I have read from this author. I can tell you that I cried during part of it because it was just so overwhelming and heartbreaking. Lindy Garcia, an inspiring clothing designer lands a job as a PA (Personal Assistant) to Cade Kingsley ( the owner of Kingsley Marketing). Little does she know that this job could have a lasting impact on her and her future. Just watch out for some of the conversations that they have because they are not your typical business conversations that you would have your boss, especially if you really need the job. Does Lindy have a job at the end of the book? The answer to this question is simple but I really don’t want to spoil the book for you. I promise its one you will not want to put down until you are finished reading it. Even after you finish reading it, you will want to read it again. I will warn you again about the emotional toll that Lindy and Cade go through personally. There are moments that you may want to hurt one more than the other but just remember that this a just a book and not reality.

This is the story of both one but two women and their men. This is a case of best friends, dating best friends. I can’t even say whose story I like better as they were both equally well done. Well, the story is good but I wasn’t a huge fan of the execution. It does a lot of bouncing around from past to present. I think the story would’ve been as equally powerful, just starting in the past and working your way to the present and current situations. I have read this author’s stories before, and always enjoy them. This one just seems to be a one off for me. Overall, it’s an entertaining story about a couple girls who find their guy and hopefully a forever after.

This is a fast-paced, engaging story that you don’t want to miss out on. Reis’s storyline is perfection and the character development is sublime. I love well-developed characters and both Sung-jin and Cahki grow independently and together nicely. I would classify this as a fantasy, enemies-to-lovers, action novel and it’s done so well. There are so many twists and turns throughout that I was on the edge of my seat and one more chapter turned in to five. It was really hard to put this book down! Definitely a must read!

He really knows how to push her buttons and that drives Lindy crazy. I feel like Lindy having to play Cade’s Fake girlfriend might of softened her heart a little. You will have to read this book to find out how it plays out. I Really enjoyed following Cade and Lindy through their journey. I highly Recommend this book.

Cruel Truths: A Grumpy Boss is the third book in T. Christensen’s Tessa and Jordan series. This enemies to lovers forced proximity tale is fun and engaging. Even though it is part of this series it can be read as a standalone.
Vanessa left it all behind to follow her dream but is it worth it all when one’s boss is an insufferable alpha a’hole. She just has to pull up her big girl panties and work through it. Right? And the fun begins.
Cade knew she was meant to be his right from the start, but she has other ideas. What she doesn’t realise is that it is only a matter of time before she will be his. Bring it on!
They say there is a fine line between hate and love, and I loved the push pull that was between the characters. I loved the barbs, the wit, the banter and everything in between, all in the name of love.
It has a myriad of emotions, frustration, drama, anger, angst, hopes, dreams and sizzling chemistry that make it easy to read.
I am not going to spoil all the fun for you so you will have to give it a read to find out what happens.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amazing thrillride that keeps you guessing. There are soooooo many serial killers in this book. The whole idea of a dark website where the killers go to brag and talk to each other is fascinating.

After killing a local serial killer, Detective Cade Dawkins received a tip that on a dark website there had been a challenge issued. The challenge was to try to stump the detective. With this, two serial killers rolled into town and started hunting and leaving bodies to be found.

Cade is put in charge of a taskforce to capture these killers. He selects a ragtag bunch of folks to help him. In the end, each person’s unique quirks made them right for the taskforce and added in figuring out who the killers were.

So many twists and turns with non-stop action. Excellent read! Original and fresh.

The thrills are even better in this second book in the Killer Series, by Allan Evans. I thought that Killer Blondes was good, but this really excelled even beyond the great read the first book was. Not only is our Detective Cade Dawkins back but he’s got far more to handle on his plate than ever before. He successfully defeated the Blonde Killer in the first book in this series, and now he’s got to take on a group of serial killers who have all started working together online. They share ideas, tips, and even information as well as challenge each other, what a scary group to have to take on for our hero detective. Turns out two of these serial killers have decided to meet up and work together, giving Detective Dawkins, a lot more to manage in his city than he’d ever bargained for. Will he be able to take on this intimidating challenge or will the group be able to win their challenge and defeat the detective that was able to stop the Blonde Killer in their tracks? This is another amazing read by Allan Evans, you do not want to pass up this excellent book series, especially if you love reading psychological thrillers!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Allan Evans’ book Killer Blonde was a great psychological thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat, scared to see what would happen next as a killer is on the prowl for blondes. The characters were perfectly developed, with no detail too small to be left out. It was as if I was right there watching the dead bodies as they were found by the investigators. This book had so many unexpected twists and turns, the killer was ingenious in the fact that they knew exactly what they were doing every step of the way, always two steps ahead of the detectives. I am a huge fan of psychological thriller novels, the chase of trying to find the killer before anyone else can be killed makes the story keep you reading right up to the very last page. I couldn’t put this book down; I was so scared that the detective would not be able to solve the murders before they got targeted themselves! If you love a good mystery thriller you will want to add this book to your next to read list.

4.5 Stars

 

House of Blood and Whispers by Natalina Reis is an epic and immersive romantic fantasy that really showcases the authors masterful worldbuilding and storytelling talents. I know that I can always count on Ms. Reis to deliver an engrossing and enjoyable read, and this book was all that and then some. It turned out to be one of my all-time favourites of her works, so far- and that’s saying something because Ms. Reis has some truly fantastic books to her name.
Apart from the incredible world-building and superb characters, there is so much more happening in the story, from action, adventure, danger, drama, romance, politics, corruption, agendas, intrigue, secrets, lies, emotion, and high stakes. The book also comes with a map that really helped to bring everything to life and helped me visualise the world so much better.
As always, Ms. Reis writes beautifully, and her talent is very apparent throughout the book. This is pretty captivating reading. The premise is not only intriguing, but it has also been executed beautifully. The author did a great job of infusing quite a lot of emotion, tension, and romance into her story that had me avidly reading the whole way through.
The inclusion of the glossary of the translations for some of the words used in the story, also helped and added another dimension to my reading experience.
I can’t wait to get my hands on ‘House of Blood and Pirates’ the prequel to this book- which is set to be coming soon. Colour me excited!!!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Natalina Reis!

This was definitely a well thought out book. Just like any first book, there’s a lot of world building it in and background to get the feel for the lore behind the series. It was detailed perfectly, well paced, and honestly very very creative. Definitely an original work of fantasy that isn’t generic fae, vampires, etc. the characters were well thought out and given a lot of depth. I did think it was a very slow start though, and for me it didn’t pick up until the last 15% of the book. But I did like it, and if you like pirates and magic, give it a shot!

Daring Ceri (True Platinum #6)Daring Ceri by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great 5 star read. I love Rockstar romance and once I started I didn’t want to put it down. Ceri is getting married but she has one problem, she is still married to Alex. Alex has one request for Ceri before he grants her the divorce; she needs to join him and his band on tour. Where Alex is hoping to change her mind and give him a second chance. Overall I really enjoyed this book. The characters were great and it was nice seeing the characters from the earlier book. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I look forward to reading more from this series and author. 1-click and get started today.
