An enjoyable YA fantasy story, and the first one in a new series, which kept me happily turning the pages. Rilla finds herself dressed in a flimsy dress, freezing and chained up, left out as a sacrifice for a dragon. She soon discovers that the dragon, Vidar is not what she expected, and is maybe not even a monster. However, Rilla is still not convinced that she wants to stay buried beneath the earth with the dragon, but she also doesn’t really have a choice. Meanwhile, her real enemy is still out there. I loved the strong, independent young woman, Rilla and thought she was a great main character, likeable and relatable. The storyline had me hooked throughout and the descriptive narrative brought the setting vividly to life, making me feel immersed in the story.

Raine Down (The Shadow Guardians Book 1) by C.B. Samet 4 Stars
Raine Down is a fantasy novel steeped in Norse mythology. It is full of action, an ancient evil and sizzling chemistry between the two main characters. This is my preferred genre to read and with my love of mythology, I thought this book was fantastic. The cover drew me in and the well written story kept me intrigued.
Both Raine and Will are used to working alone. They are thrown together since they are hunting the same killer. Is it their respective agencies or fate that threw them in each others paths? I tend to think it’s fate. Raine is independent and self reliant. She is strong but still gets her butt kicked. Will is smart, self assured with great intuition. Together they make a great team, work wise and personal. The chemistry between the two thickened throughout the story until finally they took hesitant steps to get together.
This is a new author for me and I enjoyed her writing. I will definitely be looking for other books written by her. The only thing that I didn’t like about this book, is now I have to wait until February to read the next one!

Taming Beckett, should’ve been called Taming Beckett While Finding Myself. Actually Taming Beckett is better, but that’s exactly what this book is about. Learning about one’s true self. I thoroughly enjoyed what the author wrote and if I’m being honest I can’t wait to dig into book 2 as well as the rest of this series! Beckett is spiraling quickly into rock bottom. He’s losing his hockey career, he lost his restaurant, he lost all his money and his drug addiction almost killed someone. Paige has her company and a marriage she’s trying to save. A husband she loves but he’s always traveling for work, or so she thought. When these two meet again Beckett unloads on her, not realizing who she is. But in the end these two may be what each other needs. It might take some time but Beckett remembers Paige, well Andie as he called her, she’s the only one who ever told him “no.” A budding friendship forms between these two broken souls. Broken long before their current life situations. The author takes one on adventure while these two discover who they truly are and what makes them happiest. The growth by both characters is beautifully written, especially Beckett. This is one of those books I didn’t want to put down. I only did because I had no choice and now that I’m done I want more!

Brady – Review by Beverly Finnie
An enjoyable and entertaining family saga which had me hooked from start to finish. The storyline kept me gripped throughout, and the wonderfully descriptive narrative brought the large Texas ranch setting vividly to life. Emma Rosales is the heiress to the largest ranch in Texas, ‘The Thorn’, becoming the fifth generation to have the responsibility of managing the million acres that make up the ranch. Having been brought up on the ranch Emma is confident about her new responsibilities, however there are parts of ‘The Thorn’ which she doesn’t know quite as well as she thought. The acres are made up of desert scrub and craggy mountains, with the clear cloudless skies and quiet atmosphere being disrupted by whispers on the wind.
Emma soon learns that the modern ranch has an ancient secret, when she stumbles upon people living in one of the caves on her property. Emma must either fight to return to her family or accept her fate and be hidden away from them forever. The story is told from the point of view of multiple characters which works well, and made me feel more engaged with them. Emma was a great main character and I liked how her relationship with Kai developed. This was a real page turner of a novel, with a unique and intriguing storyline, wonderfully defined characters and a amazing setting. I definitely recommend this novel.

This book had a mysterious feel to it from the moment I read the description and I couldn’t wait to see how it was going to unfold. The whole book is a well written and unique story. The passion and the enthusiasm from the author comes through on each page and I think that is what drew me in the most. I loved the characters in the story. Each had a distinct feeling and added something to the book. I loved that you could watch them develop as the story went on and I really became invested in a few of them. This is a fantastic book that I thoroughly enjoyed.

The Fifth Daughter of Thorn Ranch Julia Brewer Daily
This book was very good. The author is incredibly talented at painting a picture with descriptions. It was very easy to close my eyes and imagine exactly what she was describing. I will say that at times this talent made the book seem a little wordy. However, that wordiness did not take away from the absolute delight that is the story. This story is more than meets the eye. It is told in the modern era but there are points in time where the story makes you feel as if you have been transported back in time. I have to say my favorite part of the book is Emma. Emma is a strong female protagonist who you will be rooting for throughout the entire story. More importantly, Emma is the type of character who stays with you long after the story is over. Truly her story is one you will want to read again, as I am sure there are pieces I didn’t pay close enough attention to that I would cherish during a second reading.

Taming Beckett is a sports romance tale, and we all know that sports romances have bad boys at the helm and this one is no different.
Broken and down on his luck but of his own doing NHL bad boy Beckett Miller is on the verge of losing it all. Turning to his friend to see if she can help him turn it all around, he discovers much more than he thought he could.
I liked Beckett and Paige and the trials and tribulations they were going through. The chemistry there and They were good for each other, but I found that I could not fully immerse myself in their story. The pacing felt a little too slow at times and a little drawn out leaving me wanting more. Having said that I will be catching up on the next books in the series to see where GK takes it. There are nine books to the series, so it is bound to get exciting?
If you like contemporary sports romances, then give this book a try.

If I Had A Magic Wand is a message to everyone who share their love of a child/children. No matter where you are in the world or even if the child is not biological or if you are male or female the message is the same love is love.
It is a short story that is told through almost lyrical rhymes and illustrations. A sweet tale of mother’s love their hopes, their wishes and their dreams for her child.

In a post Ragnorok world where Midgard is the only realm of the original nine left, Raine Thoren is a Shadow Guardian that has the ability to fight demons and evil bloodlines. Her mission gets even more complicated when she runs into an FBI agent while trying to apprehend her biggest bad guy yet. FBI agent, Will Decker is a man who works better alone and has keen and sometimes eerie instincts. Everything he knows is put to question when a young woman saves his life and is then partnered with him shortly after. Will and Raine will need to trust each other in order to work together and their perpetrator is a cunning and otherworldly kind of evil. I loved this modern take on Norse mythology. The slow burn attraction was fire and oh so satisfying! It’s not a cliff hanger ending and yet I’m screaming for the next book already.

I want to start off saying that this is a YA book targeted for the YA audience. If you are looking for something darker or *spicier* this is not for you. That being said, I really enjoyed this book. It’s the first book in the Dragonpets series and I’m excited to read the others. I liked the premise of the book; however, I feel like the author could have flushed out Rilla’s and Vidar’s characters a bit more along with the plot line. Again, the premise is there and I think there’s a lot that can be done with what R.L.S. Hoff has set up. This was a very quick read for me at less than 200 pages. There are romantic elements; however, they are very clean and age-appropriate. I would definitely recommend this YA book.

This book started off really strong and I had really high hopes for it. Rilla was left as a sacrifice for a dragon, but it turns out that this wasn’t what the dragon wanted. The friendship that forms from these two was very interesting and unexpected. But it dragged in certain parts of the story between the two that I did not enjoy that much and took a lot of head space for me to finish thru it. the way thou Rilla build up confidence and independents in the story was very exciting. But I feel like this story was missing something which made it seem like pieces were missing out. I feel there should have been more character development and more climaxes or conflicts with the characters. Overall it’s an alright read especially for teens.

L. S. Hoff – Review by Jennifer Reimer
This book was intriguing from the very beginning. I could not put it down. I kept pushing on trying to find out if there was something sinister to Susie’s fall or if it was as simple as the official story, she was drunk and fell.
We follow Catherine as she tries to find the true story of her daughter’s death while also trying to cope with said death. She feels as if the official story is not true since Susie wasn’t much of a drinker. Catherine thinks she knows her daughter best but as more and more stories of Susie emerge, she doesn’t know what to think anymore. Catherine starts getting paranoid about everyone in Susie’s life, especially Susie’s boyfriend at the time. As the story progresses there are 10 different scenarios that Catherine thinks happened but which one is the truth?
The book was written like it was a journal that Catherine wrote specifically to Susie. I found myself going through a slew of different emotions with this read. I highly recommend this book!

This is a story that is packed with adventure and twists and turns that keeps the reader gripped and reading more. I read this book in 1 sitting as I refused to put it down. This is a beautiful story which many elements including danger, Romance, and a choice which could change the entire direction of Emma’s life. The story is told from two points of view that of Emma and her mother Josie.
Emma and her family live on Thorn Ranch. It is a huge place and is passed down from mother to daughter. The next in line to own the ranch is Emma. However, Emma doesn’t feel ready to take over the ranch all she wants is to be a vet, but she knows she can’t stop what is destined to happen.
When she decides to go and look at the area of the ranch not so well travelled she stumbles across a group of people living on the ranch in secret. How does no one in her family know that these people are here. Now she is stuck between what to do. Does she help these people she has just found or does she remain loyal to her family and her destiny?
Emma is a strong willed and determined young women. This story flows so nicely and leaves the reader guessing which way she will choose. The switch between Emma of today and Emma with the tribe is interesting to see and you are always thinking how will her actions and decisions made when she’s with the tribe effect her life and the ranch.

And Then She Fell by Dreena Collins is a book about a mother, Catherine Keely, who is determined to find the truth about her daughter Susie’s death. Her daughter died on a trip to Greece at age 26, and Catherine’s grief was not ebbing. She sets out to try to put together the pieces of what really happened. As she meets with those who accompanied Susie on her trip, and residents who may have seen her during her stay, it does not take long for Catherine to realize that Susie had secrets she was withholding. This story was an intense read for me. I never want to know the pain and grief that weighed upon Catherine. Losing a child is the biggest fear of any loving parent. The author did such a wonderful job conveying that devastating pain to me as a reader. It was so raw and unwavering. I could not have guessed the story would end as it did! Phenomenal writing and a well-crafted story. I look forward to reading more of this author’s work in the future. Highly recommend.

This is definitely a psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing through the whole book.
The author takes a different approach and gives you different scenarios on how Susie fell to her death.
Susie’s mother, Catherine, doesn’t feel right about this being an ‘accident’, so she sets off to investigate. Through the questions that she asks, she realizes that her daughter had been changing within the last 2 years and she didn’t even notice. Now she’s piecing everything together.

Great book in a new series, by a most amazing author! I could not put this one down, as I was held tightly with the characters, and what they faced, who they were and who they became, it was a good book!
Paige and Beckett-needed each other, in more than one way! They had to rely on one another at first glance, to help achieve goals. Character building was spot on. Chemistry was hot, hot, and did I mention hot? I loved how differences aside, a great team was made, but even off the ice, hearts can melt with the right amount of bliss. Both of them had troubles, be it past trust or habits in general, loved how they pushed thru those fear and issues to really see what they had going on between them. I love sports reads, and this one really amazed me. Good build not too fast and not too slow! Perfect! Loved it!
Such a good read, and highly must say, if you have not picked this wonderful book as of yet, up, you seriously must! The author also had amazing writing skill! Highly recommend this must read book/author!

I really enjoyed the story of Brad and Mary. They were both so likable and relatable. I like how the author wove the storyline, inserting moments from the past into the present situation. Although it is a short read, you will not fall short on finding the emotion in the story. I was only going to begin the book but ended up reading it in one sitting . A very sweet story about finding love in second chances.

While this book wasn’t what I was expecting, there were very good qualities for this story. Chase and Katarina are the perfect example of ‘Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover’. Where Katarina is unsure of what she wants from being in a romantic relationship, Chase knows exactly what and who he wants but things quickly become complicated when the deals done in the dark are brought to light and Katarina isn’t sure if she has what it takes to be with him. Chase refuses to even entertain the idea of her not being by his side, Chase is willing to do whatever it takes to get her to be with him and while Katarina struggles with her own morals and values, she is often left confused and scared because she doesn’t know who to trust and who is willing to harm or help her, can she trust Chase when she doesn’t know all the information? And when he is hesitant to share everything with her, can he let his walls down and finally let someone in?

A tale of second chance romance. Beckett is realizing that the way he’s been living is life is ruining his career and his life. He has to go back to Denver and basically start over having been downgraded to the minor leagues. Paige, a home renovator, remembers him from school. She is the coach’s real estate agent. Let’s just say the chemistry is still there , though Beckett takes a little longer to remember and Paige has some baggage to lose. The story is entertaining and heartfelt. You feel Beckett’s suffering and Paige’s heartbreak as she realizes that her spouse doesn’t support her. These two belong together and they have a long road back to each other. There are misadventures and misunderstandings. There is relationship trouble that must be worked out. Can they do it? I felt they could. This is a must read. The characters are true to life and very relatable. It is fun to read about anything in Colorado, being a Colorado girl. The plot was smooth and flowed well. A wonderful story that is a must read. Well-written and enjoyable.

This book is a wonderfully written very descriptive story by an obviously talented author. It will keep you captivated from start to finish and is filled with such vivid imagery you truly will feel as if you are there seeing and experiencing everything right along with the characters. Speaking of characters, Emma is such a strong young woman and although she is a fictitious character she may well inspire you with her strength. This is the first book I have read by this fantastic author and I know it definitely will not be the last.

The action in this book never ends. It grabs you by the throat and keeps a good grip until the end. WOW!!!
Tink knows the harsh realities of being a sexual assault survivor. Tink, Shadow, and few friends have created a Motorcycle Club that helps break up sex trafficking rings, and then helps the survivors find their way. This is her mission, her life’s goal. When Tink starts being stalked by an unknown past, she is forced to face more than just this threat.
Tink is joined by several colorful characters, her best friend Shadow, her wanna-be boyfriend Noodles, her father Tank, and other various friends. The characters are so realistic and natural that you forget that they are fictional. I didn’t need another MC series in my life, but this one found me. Grab me a kutte, find me a road name, I am a Handmaiden sister for life!!!

This romance story has it all. Great word building, story telling, pacing ect! It had a perfect balance of steamy scenes, and story, neither tried to overtake the other. It want too much or too little. I quite enjoyed it all! Candi is afraid to love again. True love doesn’t happen twice. Or does it? Enzo is afraid of commitment and everything it brings. A single touch brings them together over and over, and over again. They both can’t help the feeling they draw to each other. Will they both open their hears to each other and explore the feelings they have for each other, or will it fall flat and these two lovebirds never be together?
