Love Tools (Bluestone Series, #1)Love Tools by Isobel Reed
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Love Tools is a contemporary romance and the first book in the Bluestone series. It is funny and had me laughing out loud and once again getting strange looks from those on the bus with me. Oh well it was worth it. At times I thought of it as a rom com but then the emotions would set in only to need tissues but finding the tissue box empty.
This small-town romance has something for everyone who loves a cowboy romance with sexy cowboys, strong and sassy leading ladies.
There is nothing he loves more than his ranch and he is quite content with his life. No need for a relationship they all know the score up front. When an unexpected, beautiful woman comes to town it’s her dirty and snarky mouth that sets him alight.
Men are not in her wheelhouse she is done, done with all the losers. Done with a job that is going nowhere and done with her crazy mother she decides it’s time to leave and find some place new. The beautiful setting of Bluestone County seems just the right spot, only to find a sexy cowboy who grates on her last nerve. If only he had a pause button.
You will fall in love with the characters as much as the setting.

What Actually Happened to Isaac MooreWhat Actually Happened to Isaac Moore by Samantha J. Rose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Samantha has crafted a curious tale with What Actually Happened to Isaac Moore. Nothing can prepare you for this. Even Isaac himself cannot believe the world in which he finds himself. Is it even real? Is this what happens in the afterlife? Is it even the afterlife? It is certainly not what he thought it would be if that is the case.
Imagine being thrown, quite literally into a crazy world that resembles story books with different worlds and the most unusual of creatures and beings. With clairvoyants and shapeshifters, rivers from childhood, Fairies and giant worms (gulp), dragons and fighting mean little old men, and so much more it will keep you engaged and wondering what poor Isaac has gotten himself involved in.
This quirky adventure is full of heartache at times and is heart-warming in the next. There is tragedy yet there is humour. There is laughter to be had and the need for tissues in the next moment. Samantha certainly keeps you on your toes.
Isaac has seen a lot in his life but this warped world is not reality. It couldn’t be, right? or is it? Does this the end of dinners with mashed potatoes?

Spellbound Seduction (The Brightley Sisters Book 2)Spellbound Seduction by Halley Larkin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging historical romance with a second chance at romance theme. The shyest of the Brightley sisters, Arabella is now the lady of a grand house, following the marriage of her eldest sister. However, a male cousin is set to inherit Cortwood Manor, so Bella is focused on her youngest sister, Rosalind’s first season, in the hope of a marriage. Unfortunately, Bella is more used to reading, sewing and dabbling in her late mother’s mysterious book of herbal remedies and family folklore.

Following the disappearance and presumed death of the man Bella loved, Thomas Beecham, Bella plans to stay unmarried. Then Thomas returns, having spent a year in service, paying off his father’s debt, and he’s still in love with Bella. He had to make her think he was dead for her safety, however, even though he’s back he is still keeping secrets from her. Thomas is not who Bella thinks, and the truth could destroy any chance he has of winning her back. The descriptive narrative brought the characters and the setting vividly to life, and along with the historical period details, made me feel immersed in the story. The characters are wonderfully detailed and I loved the connection between Bella and Thomas. I look forward to book three in this series.

Raine Down (The Shadow Guardians Book 1) by CB Samet – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Raine Down (The Shadow Guardians, #1)Raine Down by C.B. Samet
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Raine Down is an urban fantasy inspired by Norse mythology. It follows Raine, who has some supernatural abilities, teaming up with FBI agent Will to help stop a ruthless serial killer. Neither of them are big fans of working with others, and they must learn to trust each other in spite of differences in perspective and approach.

Raine Down is an action-packed read with plenty of intrigue as Raine and Will share what they know and try to fill in the gaps. The characters are great, both with strong senses of morals and duty, and both definitely with a need for a life outside of work!

The fantasy side of things is well developed. There’s plenty that feels familiar to fans of Norse mythology (or Marvel fans, like Will) but also lots of interesting details. The supernatural characters are not overpowered and have to cope with the constraints and logistics of living in the human world.

This is a great start to the series, that will appeal to fans of monster-hunting urban fantasies. The second book is due out in February 2023, and I’m looking forward to reading it! It gets five stars from me.

Love Tools (Bluestone Series Book 1) by Isobel Reed. This was such a fun short romance. I loved Lily who is fed up with the life she is living and moves from London to to Bluestone County to reopen her fathers Tool shop that has been closed. When she meets Jake in Bluestone County sparks fly between the two but he’s never met a woman as feisty as her. Jake is a rancher and is laid back about everything which drives Lily crazy so they butt heads at the beginning. He knows she drives him crazy but she’s all he can think about. Lily has sworn off guys because she constantly picks the wrong one. This is such a fun sweet contemporary romance. I think I fell in love with Jake and was sad when it was over. Do yourself a favor and read this fun romance!

Raine Down (The Shadow Guardians, #1)Raine Down by C.B. Samet
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book one in The Shadow Guardians series and wow what a start. I am completely hooked and I can’t wait to see where the author takes us with this series. This is an urban fantasy and I love how the author has mixed reality with fantasy creatures and supernatural beings. The story is full of Suspense and danger as well as the steamy chemistry between Raine and Will.

Raine is a Shadow Guardian. Her job is to protect humans from the supernatural beings that live and sometimes hunt around us. She lives in the shadows unseen by those around her. That is until a particular demon she is hunting lands her in front of FBI Agent Will Decker.

Will has been working on the case of a serial killer called Blade and when his path crosses Raine as he tries to capture the murderer there are loads of questions to be asked. That is if the attraction between them doesn’t get in the way of them getting to the answers.

Now Will and Raine are tasked to work together to capture this demon and stop him murdering innocent people. Can they work together as a team? Will their attraction between them mean they take their eye off the ball? And when things are what they seem can Raine show Will there is more to the human world that the average human can see?

Lily has had enough! Packing and leaving London to find her fathers business in Bluestone County was in her sights. Finding her fathers tool shop, she is bound and determined to reopen and make a living for herself. Jake, sexy as all get out, owns his ranch and is the love of his life. Until he comes across a sassy mouthed blond who crosses his path. Can these two unlikely people come together in this romantic series? I give no spoilers, other than tell you to read this story. This series starter is well written and easy to follow. Lily is strong and independent and is determined to do it on her own. I fell in love with all of the characters in this romance. Yes I laughed, cried and even got mad, but it was all worth it in the end. This author’s story is well worth the read and I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

What Actually Happened to Isaac Moore by Samantha J. Rose was my first book by this author, and wow, does she have an amazing imagination for storytelling. The world that she has weaved with this expansive story and the unique characters was phenomenally crafted. From the first page, I was already so invested and curious about where this magical story was going to lead me to, and I was not at any point disappointed! This story unfolded into such a beautiful and emotional adventure that left me feeling all the feelings. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone, despite book genre preferences. Read it!

Kamana Wanalaya for the HolidaysKamana Wanalaya for the Holidays by Susan Renee
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

While I did enjoy the overall romance of the two main characters, Teagan and Tenley, I just felt completely underwhelmed by entire story. It was good, but I couldn’t engage in the story as I normally do. I read this because Hawaii during Christmas sounds amazing, but where was the Christmas at in this book? They may state it a few times but we don’t get a strong holiday feel if this is what you are looking for. Also the random chapters of the supporting characters threw me off and further lost my interest in the main romance blooming between Teagan and Tenley. I like the differing chapter perspectives normally, but we were given only a chapter per sub character and these chapters didn’t add much to the story. The best part of this book was the character of Teagan. He is simply a lovely person and I admire anyone who has that level of kindness.

Weep, Woman, WeepWeep, Woman, Weep by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

~Gothic, Dark, Fairy Tale Rendition~

In a lot of ways this didn’t feel like a fairy tale. The writer does an amazing job of taking a fantastical idea and making the metaphor come to life. This felt honestly more like a biography of the women in Seuno, NM and what they have to deal with in order to stay alive. In a lot of ways, just being alive really isn’t enough.

This is such an empowering novel as well. It’s not just fluff and all of the happy endings we expect to see as readers in order to feel empowered. Maria DeBlassie includes the hardship, heartaches, and very real scenes of a young woman growing up in hardship, and what that looks like. Any young woman would do well to read this, because no matter what backgrounds we come from, we all have our own La Llorona’s we have to face in order to enter womanhood.

I will be purchasing a hardcopy of this for sure, and I am so excited to share with other female readers this haunting tale. Mercy’s journey to rebirth includes the grit we all honestly need to chase after our dreams, to never stop looking our demons in the eye and going ahead to live the lives we want to, in spite of them.

Knight In The Museum ( Jorja Knight Mystery -Book 5)Knight In The Museum by Alice Bienia
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a gripping mystery crime novel, which had me hooked from start to finish. PI Jorja Knight is asked by the daughter of a former police officer to look into her father’s supposedly accidental death. Jorja is determined to find out the truth, and as she starts to investigate she discovers another suspicious death and also links to a cursed, missing pre-Columbian artifact. Jorja reconstructs the dead men’s last movements as she has doubts over the way police handled the men’s deaths, but this causes tension in her relationship with the head of Special Crimes.
The more Jorja discovers the more dangerous the investigation becomes as she’s drawn deep into the heart of the Alberta’s badlands, and into the path of a brazen killer. Jorja Knight is a complex, likeable and relatable main character and she makes a great heroine of this series. The fast paced storyline and the plot twists kept me happily turning the pages, and guessing as to the outcome of the story. The story was full of drama and mystery, along with the added humour and romance which made this a great read. I look forward to reading the rest of the books in the series, now that I’ve discovered PI Jorja Knight.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This a terrific second-chance romance. The story of Thomas and Bella is one that just kind of rips your heart and yet, warms it also. They have gone through so much. Through the story, you watch their characters work so hard at trying to get the relationship to work but their so many issues in the way. I found the characters in the story charming; some irritating and annoying (Thomas father is one of them). The plot was doable for the time it was set in and flowed nicely along with what I remembered from Book 1 of the series. I love these sisters. They work so hard to keep their independence but have to give up a bit because of the time they are in. That truly takes massive courage. Great book.

City girl, Lily, meets country boy, Jake. This was a fun romp through the relationship between them. Lily came back to take over her father’s hardware store. Jake is a macho stud with an attitude. The chemistry is there but Lily is from London so through in some culture shock and you have a bit of the funniest romance. Lily has some issues to take care of. She has some family that has guilting down to a T. Jake has his won issues. Watching them develop this relationship shows how love takes two and the right tools to make things work. Will it work? Can they move forward through their issues? Gotta read it to find out. I loved the storyline. All the characters in this story are fantastic. Definitely fit the small town personalities. The plot ran fairly smooth. It’s a terrific tale that is a quick read for the romance lover.

Practically Pagan - An Alternative Guide to Magical LivingPractically Pagan – An Alternative Guide to Magical Living by Maria DeBlassie

Maria DeBlassie has done a phenomenal job with this magical 😉 book! I absolutely love the way she has gone about providing the reader with information. Not only does she gently guide the reader on what they should do and why, but she also provides her own real, lived experiences to give the reader a sense of why we should listen to her. It’s not just a professor standing at the front of a classroom lecturing…she’s sitting down with the readers, having a conversation and providing experiences from her own life and saying, “Hey, this is what helped me when I was going through this and it might help you.” That’s what this book is like…having a conversation with DeBlassie. The other thing that she drives home over and over again is finding magic in the small and everyday and a lot of what we already do is magically. We just need to be more mindful and intentional with it to make it more meaningful. I 100% recommend this book to anyone (regardless of your religious beliefs) because you can apply it to your life. It’s about intentionality and making your life more magical. 🙂

This is the start of some mysterious happenings for these two. Someone is trying to kill Kate. This is one of the best romantic suspense I’ve read. There Is plenty of steam. It is delightful to see their relationship grow and work through the growing pains. These two give off sparks and chemistry from the start. The antagonist is written so well that you can’t help but be creeped out by him. I will be diving into book 2 of this series so that I can continue to see what happens. This is a fantastic romantic suspense. You should one-click and read it. I highly recommend it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read Leslie Georgeson’s ‘Beast,’ the 5th book in her Popov Bratva’s series, in A NIGHT. It started off steady, but after the first few chapters I was HOOKED. I could not put the book down.
The story is told from both the point of view of the mafia bodyguard, Adrik – aka the beast – and the mafia princess, Annika, and I think it’s really important how the two love interests have physical deformities/disabilities, a group of people we rarely see in love stories but SHOULD.
It’s emotional, it’s romantic, it’s full of lust and pining. It’s everything you want from a mafia romance.
‘I didn’t even know the girl. Yet, I felt an inexplicable affinity to her.’
It’s a must read! I highly recommend!

Love Tools is the first book in Bluestone series and is a wonderfully written Contemporary Romance that I freaking loved reading. I was pulled in from the beginning and I pretty much devoured this book in one sitting. I’m fairly new to this author but I’m definitely interested in finding out what other books they have written. This is Lilly and Jake’s story, she has a habit of picking the wrong men to date and now finds herself in Bluestone running her estranged father’s hardware store. Jake has one love of his life and that’s his ranch he’s considered the king of casual until he meets her. Now he can’t stop thinking about the mouthy blonde and must convince her somehow that he’s not the other men she’s dated in the past. Can Jake show her what a real relationship should look like? Can Lilly open her heart and let Jake in? I highly recommend reading this fast paced story to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading many more books by this author.

This book is book two of the series but can be read as a standalone. This is a contemporary second chance romance.

Mary and Brad were friends growing up until Mary broke Brad’s heart. Brad is back in town for his sister’s wedding and still holds onto his hurt feelings from all those years ago. Mary is fresh off of a break up ready to do her own thing. Thanks to a mutual friend, Mary and Brad reconnect but it’s not as easy as that. They are forced to face the past and all of the hurt and misunderstandings. Will the crushes they both had lead them to a second chance?

I really enjoyed this book! Mary’s character was relatable. Brad was a little harder to like but his holding on to the grudge he had against Mary worked for the storyline. Overall it was a good book!

I will be going back and reading book 1 though, as I feel there is much more to know about Tallie’s past. This book has it all – drama, suspense, mystery, crime and action. It is delivered seamlessly and I was gripped from start to finish. Highly recommend.

The Sneaky Kitten is the fourth book in the Invisible Magic Wand Series by Lois Wickstrom. It is a captivating children’s fantasy story that has a really cute storyline, bright/colourful illustrations, plenty of fun, and adventure- with just a touch of sci-fi and magic.
Caspian and Grandpa notice a frisbee fly by and Caspian really wants to play with it. But when they find it, they also find a kitten who is stuck up a tree. They set out to rescue the kitten, and so their adventure begins. The kitten and frisbee are much more than they appear.
This quirky story was imaginative, engaging and fun.
Looking forward to more ‘Invisible Magic Wand’ instalments.
Happy reading…

I enjoy reading books by this author. They are real, raw, clean romance novels that have you feeling like you are a part of the story, or at least watching from the closest armchair. The characters are relatable and you’ll be cheering them on in their journey. There are a lot of ups and downs but in the end, the second chance is worth it!

Good second-chance romance!

Brad and Mary had crushes on each other back in high school (even if they never admitted it to each other)…but Mary ended up dating Brad’s friend Jim. As soon as Brad could leave after graduation, he did. He has been busy growing his own business while keeping the past in the past. However, a return home for a wedding changes all that.

Mary has just experienced a break-up and is single and ready to mingle. When she is pushed together with her past crush at her sister’s wedding, she is ready to see what kind of fun she can have. When Brad and Mary get to reminiscing about the past, will they be able to move past the misunderstandings of their younger selves? Do they have a future? Or is whatever they could have had doomed by the past?

This was quick read that I enjoyed spending time with. This is the second book in the series…with some crossover characters…but you don’t have to have read the first one to understand what is happening. I think both characters were relatable and their story made for entertaining reading. Overall, a good book.

Coming back into each other’s lives wasn’t what they had planned, but can they work through the pain from the past to have something better than they ever had?

This is a sweet, clean story about second chances and a journey through healing wounds from the past. It is an easy, quick read that keeps your attention and is easily finished in one sitting and is recommended if you looking to pick this one up!
