Straight for the Kill (Benoit and Dayne Mystery Book 3) by Winter Austin – Review by Daree222

Straight for the Kill (Benoit and Dayne Mystery, #3)Straight for the Kill by Winter Austin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another thrilling murder mystery in the Benoit and Dayne series. I listened to the first two and flew through reading the third as the case that looms in the background gets revealed more and more. It is not easy to stomach the horrible things people do to others but knowing these two are fighting the good fight, no matter what it costs them, gives me a little hope for humanity.
There are so many good things to say about Winter Austin’s character development and storytelling. She brings you into the investigations, you care about each of the characters and wonder about others whose stories are only touched on.
Something terribly wrong is happening in their county and it will take all hands on deck to figure it out.
Everyone has secrets. Unfortunately, some will kill to keep their secrets safe.

Evan (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 2) by Toni Denise – Review by Kerry Baker

Evan (Billionaire Blind Dates #2)Evan by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

As the second book in the series I already had certain expectation when I started reading this one and I am pleased to say they surpassed them. I enjoyed the overall premise of this book. It felt fun and entertaining while also providing a strong story. I thought Kayla and Evan worked well together. They had a natural chemistry that developed even more as the story progressed.
This is still a pretty new author to me but so far I am liking what I have been reading. She has a fairly easy writing style meaning you engage with the story with ease. After reading this book I can definitely say I am looking forward to the next one and to discovering more of this authors work.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a great addition to the series this book is. Right from the start I loved the characters. I thought they had an amazing dynamic and the complications that come from raising a child just added to this. I think the author has done really well at portraying their relationship.
Although this is the fourth book in the series it can be read as a standalone. It is a well developed storyline that is truly enjoyable to read. This is one of my favourite tropes and the author has done it so well. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and cannot wait to see what else is to come.

Real Movie Hero (Green Brotherhood: SEAL Team XII Book 2) by Debra Parmley – Review by Jenni Bishop

Real Movie HeroReal Movie Hero by Debra Parmley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Real Movie Hero is a SEAL Team romance read! The only issue I have with these books are that the stories are over before they get really, really good and are far too short. That doesn’t mean I don’t like them because I do.
With suspense and action, intrigue and danger, tension angst, chemistry and fierce passion and determination there is enough to keep the pages turning. A fierce protector SEAL man who wants what he wants.
Who doesn’t like a real life movie hero? You will have to read it to find out. No spoilers here.
I have said it before but I will say it again, if you enjoy sexy, strong, heroic men then grab copies of the Green Brotherhood: SEAL Team XII series as they have it all.

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cry Baby: A Grump Sunshine Slow Burn Romantic Comedy is the fourth book in the Pierce Brothers series. This can be read and enjoyed without reading the other books in the series. I have read several books by this author in the past and was glad to pick up another of her books. This book focuses on Amy, who is doing a refresher on her life by going back to school in her 30s, and Noah, a grumpy bachelor who finds himself the guardian of a baby. But, now that their lives have collided, will they see eye to eye?
I enjoyed both characters and how they dealt with some genuine obstacles. As we get older, life gets more complicated, and we have more personal history playing a part in our decisions. This book handles it with a soft touch and a bit of humor. Grab this book if you want a romantic read with a brooding male and a bright female. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

FIRST RULE OF BEING A NANNY—DON’T FALL FOR YOUR BOSS…
Well if I were in her shoes I would find it hard not to fall for the boss.
Cry Baby is a slow burn Rom Com. It is also the fourth book and last book in the Pierce Brothers series. Belinda always gives her readers a great read. I have said it before but I will say it again each book just keeps getting better and better.
This fund rom com is full of sassiness, fun humour, a speck of naughtiness, a little angst, a bit of drama and a lot of passion and flying sparks.
Sparks fly in this tale as Noah a broody non relationship guy finds himself thrust into the role he knows nothing about and needs help.
Amy is a half glass kind of gal and navigating the broody Boss is no problem. Right? She is a professional after all. Right?
I have really enjoyed this series and am sorry to see it end but I look forward to what Belinda gives us next.

This romance was a very quick read and didn’t take me any time at all to devour it. The characters are well-written and interesting. I love historical fiction, especially when the characters make me care about the story and how they develop. The dynamic between Jo and Dusty is intriguing and makes for a very sexy time! The action will keep you hooked and hoping for a happy ending. My only complaint is that it is too short. I could definitely go for some more Jo and Dusty together!

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 4th book in the Pierce brother series. I really enjoyed this read. While it was a light hearted romance it also covered hard areas such as death and coming to terms with a loss while being thrown into a situation you don’t expect. I loved the characters of Amy and Noah. Both of them have had traumas in their pasts and they are alike in so many ways that they are the perfect fit. However things won’t be plain sailing. They both have some walls that need breaking down and some lessons on how to let the other person in. The attraction between them simmers from the first time they meet and I love Amy’s happy, bubbly attitude and how she manages to draw Noah out of himself.

When Noah’s best friend Beth passed away he is left with more than just his grief to deal with. Beth leaves him as guardian to her 7 month old daughter. Noah had no idea on what to do with a baby so decides to hire a nanny.
Amy is friends with Noahs’s brother and since she’s between jobs she decides to help out. But what happens when the one rule of not falling for the boss gets broken?
With all the pressure of raising this child and finding her birth father Noah had a lot going on but he can’t stop himself from falling for the Nanny.
Can they heal each other from their pasts? Can Amy show Noah just how much of a good father he could be if he just stops and sees whats in front of him?
This is a beautifully funny story with characters you can’t help but fall in love with

They are engaging and hard to put down. This book is no different. The characters pulled me into their world from the start. They add so much to the story which makes it easy and entertaining to read. They are connectable and supportive of each other. They have great growth throughout the story which just added to it. The twists and turns are like no other. They had me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. This is a story you don’t want to miss for sure.

Deadly IntentionsDeadly Intentions by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book started with steam right out the gate. It has everything that you would expect from a dark romance with mafia. The FMC was set out for revenge and found a lot more than that. The MMC is your typical broody mafia guy with a chip on his shoulder concerning his dad. He also has a huge heart and even though he is seeking a revenge of his own he is always wanting what is right for the FMC. Even if that means going through some things. It is the “I will do what is best for you even if it kills me,” type of vibe. It has page turning adventure and twists that you don’t really see coming but once they are there, you wonder why you didn’t think about that to begin with. The steam is there and it is intense at times but it doesn’t deter from the story line. It enhances the love that you feel growing between that characters. I highly suggest reading this book for some steamy, twisted, traumatic, adventurous fun. It is a page turner that you won’t want to put down.

I have read a few books by this author and I really enjoy her light hearted writing style so I was looking forward to this book and I wasn’t disappointed. I really enjoyed the story and I loved the characters. I really liked that the story wasn’t what I anticipated to be and I love it when that happens. I’ve read about the other brothers in this series so it was great to read about Noah. I loved the slow burn between him and Amy because of their past it really suited then well that they would have this kind of relationship. The author did a really good job of getting the emotions of the characters across, I could really feel it as a reader.
I loved this fourth instalment to the Pierce Brothers series and I look forward to reading more from this author again.

C.R. Alam did an amazing job of grabbing your attention and never letting it go. Rae Allen has not had a great example of successful love in her past, and she is a bit tarnished to the idea of falling in love. She is a successful travel blogger with an amazing set of friends, she is good doing life on her own. Dean, he has been broken in the past, and decided he didn’t need a woman in his life. When they meet, things might change.
I love this enemies to lovers, love triangle story. Like, most romances, you have an idea where the story is going, but this journey was definitely not a straight path forward. Lots of detours, dead ends, and u turns lead to a captivating, real feel story that you can’t put down. I cannot wait to read more!

She is pretty low and struggling to get her life back on track. When her adult children convince her to go on a vacation at Shore Lodge. Vacation? Shore Lodge? I smell a couple of rats (Dusty and Rose) who have deceived her in my opinion. Jacklyn is not on a vacation! No Spoilers Here! I love a well written Psychological Thriller and this author did not disappoint. Her story is fast paced and on point. The way she built her story up was incredible. The characters were so realistic, you had to remember this is just a story, or is it? This is truly an emotional story, a roller coaster of feelings will take over as you read this psychological thriller. I look forward to continuing this series. As well as seeing just where this author takes us.

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers Book 4) by Belinda Williams – Review by Bethany Rollins

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book more than I expected to. Noah is suddenly placed as guardian to Amelia when his best friend, Beth, passes away. With no knowledge of children, his brother and sister-in-law bring Amy to the rescue to nanny while Noah adjusts to being the primary caregiver. Noah, an internal person who prefers not to engage in small talk has an instant attraction to Amy, who is bubbly and charismatic. The two form a bond and develop their attraction to each other in the closeness of taking care of Amelia and searching for the real father that Beth never disclosed to anyone.
The characters in this book were fabulous. I loved how the author wove in Beth’s storyline and made her a primary character and gave us a glimpse into the mom she was to Amelia for the short time they were together. Getting tidbits of Beth’s story also gave us a hint at the true Noah and what Amy finds attractive in him that others fail to notice. Noah is flawed and fails to understand how
Beth trusted him with Amelia, but you see his caring and giving ways scattered throughout the book. Amy is determined to show him that he is the best father figure for the little girl entrusted to him while she battles her own personal emotions of loss and despair. There are a few topics that could be triggers to some but the author doesn’t get very deep and keeps the book lighthearted even with the sprinkle of darker subjects. There are also a few steamy scenes but I appreciate that these
did not take away from the storyline and were kept minimal.

The story is full of romantic suspense and drama. A definite story of good vs evil with some steam on the side. I loved the flow of the story. The characters were well-written. I was shocked to see some go dark, even as a undercover thing. Fantastic book that you should read. This author writes romantic suspense that just grabs you by the hand and says “Let’s go on a little trip.”

A sweet send off to one of the cutest romance series I’ve read. The story of Noah and Amy is touching, emotional, and romantic. I loved this story because it was totally relatable. It felt realistic when you look at the issues they were dealing with as they dealt with their growing feelings. It’s really interesting when the antagonist is your own mind. I think that’s what I loved the most. Anything can happen when you get out of your own head. I loved the fact that old friends, like Seth and Victoria, popped in for a visit. I found this to be one of those stories you can’t put down. Every free minute, I had to finish reading so I could see what happened. I definitely recommend this book, and the series.

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

Titanian Warrior is the third book in the Titanian Chronicles. It works alright as a standalone, as each story focuses on a different pair of characters and their story, but reading the full series from the start will give you more of Hagen’s backstory.
This is an enticing mythological fantasy that follows Faiza and Hagan’s struggles against the powerful and abusive Master O. Faiza has been careful about toeing the line with Master O, and trying to keep her more rebellious sister Lilith out of trouble. But Master O’s behaviour towards them is getting worse, and she can’t resist the urge to help Hagen when Master O brings the wounded stranger home.
This is a romantic story with plenty of action and magic woven through. It’s a real page-turner as you’re constantly wondering if your favourite characters will be ok, and what Master O will do next. The fantasy world is well developed and I like this book moving the story to India.
I’d recommend this to fans of fantasy romance looking for a new, vibrant world to explore!

Evan (Billionaire Blind Dates #2)Evan by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Evan is part of the Billionaire elite, after the success of Jake’s blind date, Evan unfortunately is the next victim/candidate. While all his friends put forward there prospects, the dates are set in the restaurant “Blind Date” and Kayla the owner and business partner of Evan is marshal as she was with Jake, so what could go wrong.

Evan’s first date is a disaster and when he has a heart to heart with Kayla to try and get the rest of names he realises that he has feelings for her but does not want in to put the business in jeopardy if it does not work out.

Kayla has worked her socks off to get “Blind Date” to become successful business working with her silent partner Evan has been great, although over the past few months Evan and his friends have slowly creeped into the friends zone and she is happy to have some in this vast city. When her friends start scheming and convince her to be Evan’s third blind date. As they start talking to each other under the secrecy of the app she realises there is something there and would like to investigate it more, but when her business is in wreaked can she swallow her pride and accept the help from her friends and Evan.

I loved this story, this can be read as stand alone story as you have little recaps throughout the story but I do recommend Jake’s book as it is a great read. Evan and Kayla where dancing around each other in the first book and you got a sense that the chemistry between them would ignite soon but OMG i did not expect to burn as bright as it did.

The story was well written and developed and I love all the secondary characters which just enhances the story with there little subplots exploding every now and again. I can’t wait to reading the next book in the instalment and definitely can’t wait to see what happens with Catherine and Ryker.
