Another book in this series that has enforced my love of this author. Another round of mysteries for Emma and Jeremy but this time, Dora and Tim are involved. The four are invited by a mystery organization on an all expense paid trip to the exposition in Paris, France introducing new and upcoming technology. They all decide it would be a nice trip and getaway but it doesn’t take long for Emma to feel like something is not right. I love the prologue that instantly pulls you in. From there you will find two mysteries seemingly not connected, intertwine for an exciting fast paced mystery where surprises keep you on your toes. This is part of a series but can easily be read alone as the characters are described in detail and gives you just enough to not be lost.
The moment the book starts you know it will be filled with passion. Caitlin, must go to New Orleans on business instead of vacation; Evariste owns the company that Caitlin is inspecting. From the first moment the two interact, there is instant connection. Evariste knows that fate had to bring Caitlin to him as she appears to be his late wife. Caitlin doesn’t understand her intense attraction. This was an intense book with constant surprises. If you’re looking for a great fantasy with wonderful character development, definitely pick this book up.

This was an intense journey through spiritual awareness and unconditional love. The chapters were short but moved seamlessly. This isn’t your typical story telling novel but it does read beautifully. Ultimately, this is not the typical genre I read but I truly enjoyed it.

Another great book by this author. Although it can be read before the trilogy, it is much easier to follow and know the characters of read first. With that being said, I love following Ian and Jarryd on more adventures and this book did not disappoint. This was unique in that their stories were connected but not. I liked the back and forth between Ian’s world and Jarryd’s as they came to figure out what was happening. This is another mystery fantasy that will make you not want to put it down.

L. Schneider – Review by Amanda Glaspie
I think inneed a cold shower after reading thks sexy romantic story. Dane and Mike are madly in love but there was something missing. This was a fast paced sexy romance. The story was a unique twist on traditional relationships but equally filled with love. I liked the build up of Mike and Dane’s quest for finding a third in their relationship. However, the ending seemed really rushed with Vanessa and Vy. I felt like Vy had super important role in the book but turned into an after thought. Overall, interesting and enjoyable read.
This was a fascinating and heartbreaking story. There was so much hope and then absolute heartbreak. I felt each tear and every bout of anger. Very well written and told.

I enjoyed the premise of this book. A true loves kiss, is it enough? There was a good mix of adventure and romance that kept your attention. I felt like I really got to know the three main characters but the foreground characters were lost in the mix. All in all, a really interesting story that was a super quick read.

This was an interesting take on one of the most well known biblical stories, Adam and Eve. If you are looking for something that expands on this classic biblical story, this is not the book for you. The character development was strong that even I was cheering for Lucifer. This was an exciting and interesting listen. Just know, you must go in with an open mind.

This is a fun and unique way to tell about your life. The poems are enjoyable while also being quite thought provoking. I found myself relating to certain events within the poetry. I really enjoyed the pop culture references mixed within the poems. Definitely do yourself a favor and make sure you have a device or get the boom to experience the colorful pages that go along with the poetry beautifully.

Another unique book in the Millersville Series. It is described as a conspiracy theory thriller which seems an apt description. Unfortunately, the whole concept was beyond far fetched. However, it was a quick and fairly entertaining read. It had strong character development which helped with remembering characters easily even though there were many introduced. If you’re into conspiracy theories, this is the book for you.

I love this authors story books and this story did not disappoint. Loretta is such an inquisitive child. I love that she questions what is happening and in turn, giving lessons that are fun and entertaining. The artwork is beautiful and gives wonderful visuals.
The final installment in this trilogy did not disappoint. The final book will pull on your heart as the war pushes on and so many are lost. Ian Troy knows what he must do in order to save the Shinree and his friends. The book takes you along adventures of survival and hope wish an ending that beings everything full circle.

Schneider – Review by Amanda Glaspie
Once again this author has put together an exciting and riveting book. The next book follows Ian Troy who was presumed to be dead but is alive and well and fighting to beat Draken and his father Jem. There wasn’t a moment that didn’t keep my attention with the constant twists. Old and new characters come together to save the kingdom and ultimately retrieve the crown of stones. This will leave you on the edge your seat laughing, crying, and everything in between.

Schneider – Review by Amanda Glaspie
This was another fun and exciting read that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Book three in the series did not disappoint. The growth in Harry in this final book was immense through his need to escape and hope to get total those he loves. As always, the humorous interactions between Tristian and Harry and now Elena will instantly make you smile. The ending honestly made me want more but it ended with great revelation.
I really enjoyed this book and the narrator was perfect in capturing Gwendolyn. I’m a sucker for strong fierce women and this book did not disappoint. Gwendolyn went many years avoiding her hometown until she is called back to her family home. From the beginning things are not going well and there seems to be a black cloud that is following her after several murders begin to occur shortly after her arrival. This was a book that thoroughly showed that that not all things are as they seem. Couple with the sassiness and humor of Gwendolyn this makes for a fun read.

This was another fantastic books in this series. I absolutely love when Emma and Jeremy are able solve a mystery together. The first mystery was heart wrenching. It is so easy to feel the emotions with each character. Then after time Jeremy and Emma take some time alone, Emma is thrust into a past mystery with a new twist. This is another page turner that will keep you on your toes and wondering what the next page will bring.
This was a strange story with what felt like a bunch of random thoughts being thrown together and I really didn’t feel like it was a thriller. However, this book read super fast and I really enjoyed it. The title is so fitting for the book as it follows the story of several thieves and their bizarre interactions. If you want a quick and entertaining book, this is it. You’ll find yourself cheering on both the good and bad guys. The ending was perfect and brought everything full circle.

I love a good psychological thriller, and this book did not disappoint. Jacklyn is simply a widow who is overcoming her grief of losing her husband Albert, but she has also revealed hidden secrets. Her son Dusty has big plans and will do anything to get what he wants. This book was filled with twists and turns that will keep you on your toes. I’ll definitely be checking out more books by this author.

The first full novel for the second generation did not disappoint. The number of twists and turns made this a fast-paced exciting book. I do recommend reading the prequel to this book first as it makes each revelation all the more shocking. I loved how action-packed this book was while maintaining an air of sexiness. I also enjoyed seeing how the first generation grew up and continued to work together, all while still embracing those that are blood and those that are not. Proof that even the mob can not keep this family from keeping each other safe. I’m ready for the next book, especially with the final sentence

This was a quick sexy read. Isaac wants to end his time in Chicago with a beautiful woman, but not any beautiful woman; he wants the sexy red head. Jack just wants a carefree night away from her family. Their time together is fiery and hot. However, Jack is full of mystery and wants only anonymity. This book leaves off on a cliffhanger that only leads to more questions.

Another book by this author that does not disappoint. Storyteller vowed off love after being betrayed, Sheri didn’t think anybody could love her. Fate had a different plan and brought these two together in the most unique way. This book does not disappoint and has a great mix of action, suspense, and love. I enjoyed seeing things through the eyes of a nomad that has chosen that lifestyle and the struggles it can bring. Storyteller and Sheri work perfectly and the chemistry upon their first meeting was instant. Fantastic story. Looking forward to hopefully reading more about the members of the wretched soulz.

The was a intense fast paced thriller. I haven’t read the first two books and didn’t feel lost following the characters as there was great development and background information but I will be going and reading the first two. I always love a series that follows two strong woman and Lila and Elizabeth do not disappoint. You will not be able to put this book.

This series I can say wothout a doubt, will instantly pull you in. It follows the Hawke family (and a few individuals close to them) as they navigate their oftentimes, complicated life. Although each book can be read separately, they build on each other and help significantly by starting from book one; which I highly recommend. The character development continues to grow with the series and each book brings on a new emotion.
Book One The books follows Savage and Danika and their unlikely romance. They find each other in the most unlikely of places and although neither was expecting to find love, they are perfect for each other. Dani is the perfect amount of spice that Savage needs and Savage is the calm that Dani needs. The action is just starting in this book.
Book Two Gabe and Skye should not work. They’ve known eachother since they were kids. Everyone sees them as family but the two have had feelings that they’re having a hard time denying. Only time will tell if this can work. You can definitely feel how each other souls are tortured but looking for that someone.
Book Three Stone has been strange until it’s revealed he’s been helping Uncle Dom. Nora is sweet with a hint of spice. Stone doesn’t think he’s good enough for Nora and Nora thinks Stone is a pig, and yet, they can’t seem to stay away from each other. Another book with hope, love, and heartache. This book has by far the most action so far in the series and makes you wanting more.
Book Four Storm has not had it easy and heartache has her trapped in her own head. Landon is desperately trying to escape his past. It the most unexpected ways they cross each other’s paths. This is by far the most emotional and heart wrenching book so far in the series. There could be several triggering moments but it is dealt with in a caring and heartfelt manner. This may be my favorite book so far.
Book Five Such a sweet short story of finding love where you least expect it. I love seeing stories of the background characters that played a role in the Hawke family. Caroline and Saint, although not major characters in the first four books, are very important to the family. Lot of detail packed in a small package.
Book Six This book brought the series full circle with a surprising ending. I really enjoyed the final conclusion being about Luca and Byron. Their relationship, i feel, was really important. There were hints of this conclusion in the last few books and you’ll find yourself saying “Oh, that makes sense now”. Great series.
This was a wonderful final conclusion in this series. I cried at the end because it was over. The culmination of everything brought it all full circle. There was the perfect amount of action, hope, and heartache. I loved every minute of it. I can see people potentially being disappointed with the ending, but I think it was the best option for all. Definitely give this whole series a listen!

Schneider – Review by Amanda Glaspie
This was a quick interesting read. Dorian and Augistine found love in the most unexpected way but neither can act as they are married. Little donthey know that fate will bring them back together but Dorian has another secret. Will their friendship and budding romance be able to survive all the obstacles. I really enjoyed this book and all the twists and turns. Endingnwas definitely thought provoking.
I was excited to hear about Joker and his story. I really don’t have anything negative about this book other than it didn’t follow the same pattern of the previous books with the two perspectives, I really would have to have Lady’s thoughts as well. This story was an emotional roller coaster. It made me laugh, cry, and feel the overwhelming love. Great story.

This was an adorable children’s book about a little girl with a great love of nature. The pictures were fun and eye catching and the story was sweet. This is such a great story to teach you children about an important part of gardening and how much fun the outdoors can me.
This was a book with constant twists and turns and so many surprises. Tallie Brown has finally learned who her real family is and is on a mission to meet the man that is her father when he goes missing. This is a fast paced page turner that instantly pulls you in. Each chapter follows and different characters perspective and it is very easy connecting with each one. I wasn’t expecting the ending but it made it all the more perfect.

I wasn’t sure how I felt about the book at the beginning as there were a lot of moving parts. At times, I had a hard time following the storyline. As the book progressed, characters made sense. The author did a great job at generating strong emotions for each character, whether it was love or disgust. The ending took me by surprise and it wrapped things up well.

This book brings a little bit of everything. Action, romance, hope, and more. This is the third installment in the series and although I didn’t read the first two, the was a great tale into Gary Hollins previous life and what brought him to Australia. The descriptions in this made me feel like I was in each scene. I had no confusion going back and forth between current times and the past and I felt like inwas Debbie, sitting on the back deck, listening to Gary’s stories. I plan on reading the first two and hope there is a book four in the works.
