My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this book! I read this in one day, I was so hooked and invested in the story and the angst was real! My heart was hurting so much and I just wanted to shake Dean so much! There were times where Dean and Rae really irked me, I felt like at some points Rae was too pushy and then at other points Dean was too distrustful and because of that he acted like a total tool. I know Rae was doing all she did for his own good, but it felt rushed since they had literally only known each other for a minute. Dean’s employees, well actually only Gayle, she really got on my nerves. I hate how people kept getting into their business, he is a grown man and can make his own decisions you do not need to interfere unless he asks. I guess he was just insecure with who Rae’s best friend is and how his previous relationship turned out so I’ll give him that, but man, this was one of those books where you wanted to scream at the characters to just sit down and talk and listen to each other. Really excellently written book.

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers Book 4) by Belinda Williams

Cry Baby is the fourth book in the Pierce Brothers series and is a Contemporary Romance that once you start reading there’s no putting it down until you’ve finished. The authors style of writing and attention to detail along with fully developed characters make for a wonderful story. I felt like I was apart of the story right along with the characters. This is Noah and Amy’s story, His best friend has suddenly passed away and Noah finds himself the guardian of his baby girl. Amy is a nanny who offers to help him put but finds she’s super attracted to him. Noah is determined to track down the baby’s real dad. Can these two fight their attraction? Can they get their Happily Ever After? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Cute, easy, quick read. A few profound gems of wisdom are sprinkled around & pleasantly surprising in a fun, adventurous story. I didn’t love the way JCee was treated through most of the book, but that changed by the end. The romance between Mora & Darin is a whirlwind & the best part of the whole book. The idea for this story is great!

4.5 Stars

 

Cry Baby is the fourth and final book in the Pierce Brothers series by Belinda Williams. This book gave me some mixed feeling as I was both excited to finally get Noah’s story, but also a little sad to know that it is also the last book in the series and I’m not sure I’m ready to leave the Pierce’s and say goodbye.
Having loved all of Belinda Williams other books, and the other three books in this series, I was excited to have this land on my Kindle. The Pierce Brothers have pulled me into their lives right from the beginning, and I have loved my time getting to know them. This final book belongs to Noah Pierce, and I think Ms. Williams definitely save the best till last.
Noah has been thrown for a loop with the death of his best friend- suddenly becoming guardian to her baby girl. Noah has always been better with numbers, than he has with people. What’s he supposed to do, or know about parenting? He’s not cut out to be a father. Is he? And so enters Amy- the live-in nanny, here to care for the baby. Her sassy sunny nature brings light and balance to his grumpy brooding world. They can keep things professional. Can’t they? You’ll need to read this slow-burn romantic comedy for yourself to find out how everything plays out in the end. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
This was such a fun read. One of my favourite tropes too- falling for the boss/falling for the nanny- with plenty of humour, banter, chemistry, tension, emotion, angst, and sparks to keep things interesting.
Another captivating story in this superb series! Can’t wait to see what Ms. Williams has in store for us next!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Belinda Williams!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series was a very unique and interesting read. The overall theme of connection and how we are all inter-connected really spoke to me and, made me think of how our past, present, and future all connect. I was very intrigued by the different story lines and how each of the characters developed their true selves through meditation. This series secretly brings the connection of each character through time and uniquely shows how each person has a role to play and their decisions make a big impact to everyone around them! I really enjoyed reading this series and found myself asking so many in-depth questions which ultimately were answered throughout this journey! I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys fantasy, adventure, sci fi and a unique story line that shows how self discovery enhances ones true self; thereby bringing the best version of themselves to help society at large!

Chatroom With A ViewChatroom With A View by Glenn Maynard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Well I was not expecting this book to be as dark as it was. Not in a bad way either. The story follows Troy as he has to come to terms with some evil in his life. Not only the evil at home but childhood bullies he now works with. Add in a crazy ex girlfriend turned stalker and you have a wonderful crime story!

Troy battles his own demons after seeing a crime at the hands of his father. After working with his childhood bullies and hearing what they do in chatrooms to various men he plots a plan of revenge. All while taking care of his father that he is keeping alive because of a threat he grew up with.

This book was hard to put down once I started it because it sucks you in from the very beginning! I love crime novels and this one was not a disappointment at all! In fact I was expecting a different ending!

This story has several different twists that were perfect for the storyline and this won’t be the last book from this author I read.

Evan: A Steamy Billionaire Workplace Contemporary Romance (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 2)

It has been a while since I have finished a book as quickly as I finished this one since life has been so crazy for me but this is one I had to get finished to find out what was going to happen next.

Kayla’s restaurant business is taking off and things are going well, until they aren’t. Evan tries to be her knight when things get bad.

Evan like most of the guys is genuinely a good guy, but things are definitely trying for him. His first two dates are disasters and it makes him reluctant to go on the third understandably.

I really enjoyed reading this book and the series so far. I’m looking for to all of the remaining books, but none as much as Luke’s story there is something going on there and I can’t wait to find out what it is.

Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates #1)Jake by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

After reading the blurb I had to pick this book up. The idea of a dating app and then an actual blind date in the dark is such a great idea. Just think how much this could help people get to know one another and grow without it just being about physical attraction, wealth, or status.

This is the first book in the Billionaire Blind Dates Series by Toni Denise. In this book we meet a group of best-friend billionaires that want to help their friend Jake find romance, because his latest relationship turned out to be another gold digger situation. So what better way to meet someone than on an anonymous app where you can talk and later meet in a dark restaurant so your identity, financial status, and even looks are hidden?This is how Jake meets Lauren.

Lauren, a secretary to a CEO, gets convinced by her friend Catherine to try this Blind Date experience. Though hesitant, she finally agrees to the blind date experience with one main condition: that the person she matches with has a similar financial status as her, because she has seen how her mom dated wealthy men and was deemed a gold digger. Will it matter when Lauren finds out she is actually dating a billionaire, or will the amazing chemistry these two share be enough to overcome?

I really loved seeing how these well written characters seemed so real that I became invested in their story. This is a fun, fast read that flows really well and I can’t wait to see which member of the friend group is up next to find love.

This was a good four star read. This is a little different from the genre that I normally read but I’m glad I read it. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. This was a good start to the series and I can’t wait to read more. The characters were great. My heart went out to Anna and I only wanted to see her happy. I love horses so that was a bonus as well. We get action, adventure, steaminess and so much more. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next. If you’re looking for a good historical fantasy romance this is the book for you 1-click and get started today.

Evan by Toni Denise is the second book in the Billionaire Blind Dates Series, though this book can be read as a standalone, I’d recommend reading the first book as well. In the first book, we get to see the friendship/ partnership between Kayla and Evan as he helps his friend find love.

This is a friend’s to lovers romance that has complications like work partnership and friendships that the couple could potentially mess up. I really love the idea of a dating app and then an actual blind date in the dark. Just think how much this could help people get to know one another and grow without it just being about physical attraction.

The chemistry between Evan and Kayla is undeniable and so fun to read about. These characters are written so well that they feel so real and almost like friends of yours as you read their story. I’m really enjoying this series and I can’t wait for the next book to see who Cade is matched with.

I was so excited to get to read Noah’s story in the Pierce Brothers series. Reading about the previous 3 brothers, it was clear that Noah was the introverted brother who was a bit of a black sheep. Getting to see him opening up and growing was fantastic. I loved that we got to see Amy again, who was in Seth and Victoria’s story. The two of them had electric chemistry from the beginning and it was so sweet how they worked together to provide Amelia with structure and care. I loved getting to see bits and glimpses of the other brothers and characters from the previous series. As always, there is the big emotional twist before the final scenes wrap everything up. It was an amazing end to a fabulous series and I am excited to see what the author has for us next. This is definitely a book series that will be reread again. This story could be read as a stand-alone, but if you can, I absolutely recommend you read the previous books, as all of these brothers are swoon worthy and sexy as all.

When I picked up this book I wasn’t sure what to expect. Having never read anything from this author and not even reading the first two books in the series I was expecting to be lost for sure. Almost immediately the action began and I was pulled into a story that I didn’t want to put down. The writing throughout was lovely, and descriptive, I was able to picture the scenes almost as if I were watching tv instead of reading. The main characters of this book are Hagen, a titanian warrior who has been un-mated so long he is experiencing sporadic moments of blood lust which ultimately can result in death, and Faiza and young, phoenix, who is just beginning to come into her powers, and come to terms with being mated to Hagen all while battling a dark necromancer mage. I didn’t have any trouble following the book due to that but as I read and learned about the other characters mentioned throughout I did feel like I was missing out on the first two books and I will be going back through those to catch up. Ultimately, this was a wonderful paranormal romance!

A new style for me but enjoyable nonetheless. A runaway servant bets on her character judgement of a widowed cowboy willing to offer all that she has to stay out of trouble. This book was pleasant to read, a novella length so on the shorter side but still very good! This is a book I would love to see expanded into a full length novel as I feel like we could get so much more out of these characters and develop them, their relationship and the finer details. I loved the dynamic between the too and haven’t read an age gap like this one! Worth a read!

Opinion
This prequel shows great promise for a new series. There is just enough angst to keep the story line interesting. With the way it ended, the book has been left in my mind wondering what will happen next.
This will be a great book for an older teen being introduced to romance.

He doesn’t expect more then a nanny but one thing leads to another and Amy and Noah start having feelings for one another. They both have walls up but could they both be the ones to tear them down?

This was wonderful, full of surprises. Amy is a breath of fresh air while Noah is a bit stoic and set in his ways. I think they both complement each other, and this story had much more then just the nanny boss angle. Will definitely check out more from this author.

Cry Baby
By: Belinda Williams

Belinda Williams is quickly becoming one of my very favorite authors. I anticipate every book from her because she has yet to disappoint me. This is another of the Pierce brothers books. I have read all of them, but this one definitely can stand alone. Amy is on the verge of a life change, she has just been accepted into school to become a teacher and cannot wait to tell her best friend her good news. Before she can tell her best friend, she calls with tragic news – her brother in law has gained custody of an infant and needs all the help he can get. Amy agrees to help him out, but she never could guess what all she was getting in for. Amy loves Amelia and truly enjoys caring for her. However, her boss – Noah, loves Amelia but is determined to find the father of Amelia. While they are working together Amy and Noah cannot help but notice they are attracted to each other. They both want to cross the line between boss and nanny, but really they are afraid of what will happen. More importantly, Amy things Noah is meant to be the one to raise Amelia, but can she convince him that he should.
As with all the other Pierce Brother books, this book contains the most wonderful characters, the ones that you wish were your friends in real life. The Pierce brothers are also the ones you wish were really out there. Each and every one of the characters are very well developed and multi-faceted. I cannot help but recommend this book. I also say, though they are not necessary to read to understand this book, definitely read the other three books, just because they are absolutely wonderful!

Titanian Warrior (Titanian Chronicles #3)Titanian Warrior by Victoria Saccenti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hagen is a Titanian Warrior, he is strong and powerful, but he is also consumed by a bloodlust which afflicts all the unmated Titanians and once it starts, it only leads to madness and suffering and Hagen is more afflicted than most and cannot remember what he has done, or whom he has done it to. As a last hope, Hagen goes to the gates of Hell to petition for clarity and an extension of time in which to find his eternal mate before the bloodlust consumes him completely, however, it is not to be when Hades denies his request and he is sent bloody and suffering back into the wilderness.

Faiza is a young woman who has had a troubled past, she was sold as a child to Master O, a man with powers who claims to be a wizard of the highest order, but he can be cruel and mysterious, he often travels from his home, but nobody can rest even then, as he will know if they do. He has terrible mood swings and no respect for anyone and he orders Faiza around like a housekeeper, especially when he brings an injured male to the house on his return from one of his trips and demands the household care for him.

Faiza has a secret that she keeps from her master, she has magic, only a small amount, but she also dreams of a male figure who is in pain, suffering and shrouded in mystery because no matter how much she tries, she cannot see who it is. As Hagen recovers from his injuries, he finds himself drawn to Faiza, but he has to hide it from Master O, that is until Master O divulges his plan to conquer the world using Hagen as a pawn in his scheme and it is at this point that Faiza decides to help Hagen escape, but when she opens a portal to an unknown place, she is about to enter a world of danger, destiny and possible destruction, but will she and Hagen be able to survive what is to come? This is a fantasy adventure full of discoveries and romance, but with a healthy dose of strength, perseverance and acceptance throughout, as you follow along with the story and become entranced with the magic within.

Buckle up because this is going to be a very exciting ride! Have you ever wondered what it must be like to see into the interworking minds of famous musicians, well that’s exactly what you get with Tam DeRudder Jackson’s Hot For Me (The Balefire Series Book 4)! Not only did she develop very multidimensional characters, but she also draws a perfect picture of what it’s like to be behind the scenes and on stage with the world’s most famous rock band and the hottest female pop star (Christy Valor) who happens to be single, but has secrets that are haunting her. Add in a single gorgeous bass player (Adam Tron) from Balefire who loves the after-parties and all those groupies, and boy do you have a recipe for some mischief. Will Adam Tron be able to break through the walls Christy Valor has put up and get her to trust him with her secrets, or will she run the opposite way, leaving our bass player hanging with no clue what hit him?
This book is hot, steamy, and full of surprises that you did not see coming. If you have not read the other books in The Balefire Series you will want to go back and read the stories of the other bandmates, Jack and Clio, Blu and Ashleigh, and of course Dakota and Annabelle’s romances. When you finish this book you will be begging for more in the series, like what’s up with The Balefire’s Manager Garrett and his mood?
