The Billionaire’s Slave: Steamy Historical BWWM Romance by Stacy-Deanne

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. The author has once again out done themselves. The Billionaire’s Slave had me hooked from the beginning. Leon and Penny made me wonder about what really happened with people like the characters.

Leon is a Slave owner, but he’s not like most. His slaves are treated well and not like the other slaves. When he goes to collect money only to find out that they don’t have it. He wants their last slave, but he doesn’t only want her as a slave. The quote I chose for Leon is: “Oh, no I wanted the baby, but I just didn’t think it was the right time. I had everything, Penny. Everything a man could want. I took it for granted and lost it. Men envy me for my money but I’d trade it all away to have my baby. My precious baby.”

Penny has been with Rose’s family since she can remember. When she learns that her Master has sold her she is happy. Can she and Leon have a relationship? Will they last? The quote I chose for Penny is: “I’s love Massa Falcon with everything in my heart and as long as we knows we married, that’s all that matters. Ain’t you always sayin’ we’s can’t let society tell us what to do?”

Highly recommended for Historical Romance lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Mr. Talisman has me hooked. I can’t wait to read the next book.

There are so many characters so it was hard to choose the quotes. Two that stuck out were characters from different worlds. Or different parts of the MultiVerse.

The first quote comes from Matt. He’s a college student in Colorado. The quote I chose for Matt is: “Doubt that, buddy. You seemed to be the one taking a beating earlier.”

The other quote comes from Queen Neferities. Part of another part of The MultiVerse. The quote I chose for Queen Neferities is: “I would like some time to think about your request. I will ask Aderan to arrange accommodations for you and Thoran while I spend a few days pondering your entreaty.”

Journeys Through TimeSpace (Journeys Through #2) by James Talisman

Mr. Talisman has done it again. The Journeys Through Series is now one of my favorite series. I absolutely love how he works his characters in.

Once again there were so many characters I could choose to get quotes from. These amazing characters are hard to choose from.

The first character is Captain Critosson. Captain Critosson from the Elipsson galaxy. They are heading to the mountain to get an ancient artifact. The quote I chose for Captain Critosson is: “I promise, Your Majesty. I will not let you down.”

Jennifer is Matt’s mom. She is worried about her son. There was a close call when she thought she would’ve lost her son. When the Director calls them together she needs the reassurance. The quote I chose for Jennifer is: “Thank you, Andrew. I just get a sense that young man has a very dark side. Almost like he is possessed somehow. With his resources, I wouldn’t want him to find out about those three.”

Journeys Through AllCreation (Journeys Through #3) by James Talisman

Another great read by the author. They sure know how to keep readers interested and I sure hope we get to see more of the characters.

Once again I had a ton of amazing characters to choose from. The two I chose seem to fit this story.

Rashael is from another planet and is sent to get something. When she and a friend get there they encounter things they weren’t expecting. The quote I chose for Rashael is: “Okay. I was enjoying the target practice… but you are right, as always.

Damon is the one who gives powers. He is also looking for something, but can he find it in time? The quote I chose for Damon is: “Of course not, my new friend. I have big plans for you. Please get up and join me for a discussion you will find interesting.”

Highly recommended for Epic Fantasy lovers.

Unlock the Angel (Seraphim Angel Order #1) by Calla Zae

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. I can’t wait for the next books in the series by the author. Unlock the Angel was a fantastic read.

Cathy is a normal human and living her best life. Well, as best as it can be with a dead mother and broken heart. When she meets Daedriel she senses that something is different. Will she be okay once she knows the truth? The quote I chose for Cathy is: “Of course! I’ve never seen an angel before. From the cloud movie, I know you have impressive blue wings. I only saw one set though. You said you have six wings. Show me.”

Daedriel is an Angel and is on Earth looking for a former friend. When his bird comes home and tells him about their neighbor he gets curious. Will he be able to stop the darkness from taking over? The quote I chose for Daedriel is: “We did. You unlocked me too. I was trapped in my own world until you came along. You offered me love, and that opened my heart and solidified my purpose even more.

Savage Secrets: An Arranged Marriage Mafia Romance (Mafia Elite #4) by Amy McKinley

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. It’s also not the first book in the series that I’ve read. Each Mafia Elite book gets better and better. Max and Lil, Enzo and Sofia, Stephano and Em, and now Marco and Elena.

Marco is the Mafia boss for his family. He’s also the one who is sent to get Elena. He wants her to be his, but she doesn’t know of his feelings for her. Things happen that bring them closer together. The quote I chose for Marco is: “Going somewhere? Chloe James? Don’t think for one second I don’t know you’re Elena. I’d recognize you anywhere, in any disguise. This freckle, the shape of your eyes, the pout of your lips, even the smell of your skin. You can’t hide from me. It doesn’t matter what alias you use. I’ll always find you.”

Elena has been dead for the last four years in order to protect everyone she cares about. So when Marco shows up she runs because she doesn’t know if he wants her dead as well. He takes her back home and she finds that she’s getting married. The quote I chose for Elena is: “I’m not thrilled about it. Who would be? I found out I’m half Russian and related to a Bratva boss. Not exactly my dream evening.”

Road Rage (Outlaw) by Karina Kantas

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. It is my first time reading anything in this series. Road Rage jumps right into the story and it’s fast paced. The characters were a love-hate thing, but overall a great book.

Doc has wanted Gem since she was on Shep’s arm, but didn’t push his luck. Now that Shep is out of the picture he’s got his chance. Can he make Gem see that not all of them are bad? The quote I chose for Doc is: “You’re right, sorry. It’s just I’ve wanted you for so long. I’ve been fantasising about having you, and I worried that this was just a dream, that I’d wake up in my bed alone, then cleaning up after another wet dream.”

Gem isn’t sure what is making her go down this path again. Can Rage MC be different from the Hawks? She is about to find out that it’s the same, if not rougher. The quote I chose for Gem is: “I can’t move. I’ve been trying to move my legs and arms, but I can’t.”

Highly recommended for MC Romance lovers.

A Hundred Wishes (Band of Sisters) by Marianne Rice

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. This is the first book in the Band of Sisters Series that I’ve read. Gina and Bryce will have you wanting more.

Gina was honorably medically discharged from the Army after a bombing. Three years have passed and she still hasn’t gotten used to her scars being on display. Sex is great if there is no touching, no lights, and clothes still being on. Everything changes when she meets Bryce. The quote I chose for Gina is: “But you did it, Bryce. You touched me, loved me, and weren’t repelled by what you saw. Trust me, I’d have known if you were. I was looking for it. Waiting for it and it didn’t come. You’re okay with my scars because you never witnessed the pain. Your heart is big. It doesn’t make you weak or cowardly. It makes you human. It makes you loveable.”

Bryce is an arson inspector and a former firefighter. Being organized is his thing until he meets Gina. He’s able to break down her walls one by one. Will he be able to get past his own fears and his own demons for her? The quote I chose for Bryce is: “Sh. You know what those scars show? Your bravery. Your spirit. You saved lives and risked your own, as a soldier is trained. You’re freaking bada**. You may sew and work the craft fair like a domestic, domicile, housewife, but underneath those bulky sweatshirts, the thick scarves… underneath is a bada** beautiful woman who I so desperately want to make love to.”

Trevor goes to a Bob Ross painting as a way to keep himself from drinking and finding a woman to take to bed. He didn’t know that he’d find exactly that at the painting session. He’s a football player, but this tiny woman captures his heart. The quote I chose for Trevor is: “Your job is to lay here. A lot of lying in bed.”

Theo is a Detective and is recovering from a gunshot wound. He literally runs into the love of his life and can tell she is scared. He wants to know more about her and he isn’t sure why. Will he be able to save her in time? The quote I chose for Theo is: “What? I’m a guy who doesn’t like to share. What’s wrong with that? I know it’s absurd, but I couldn’t help it. My feelings for you are so strong, and all these scenarios popped into my head, wondering what you were doing.”

Sofia is running from her past and it’s catching up to her. She runs into a guy after getting a text that scared her half to death. She learns he’s a cop and thinks her luck is running out.

I worked as a medical assistant for a while but didn’t really like it. Now I know what I want to do with my life. I want to help people heal in a different way.

Brock has stuck up for Kirsa since they were kids. Even as they get older he’s always been there for her. Can he get over being the popular kid and get back to being her best friend? The quote I chose for Brock is: “Fine. But I’m not going to pretend to be a girl or play with dolls.”

Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.

Unlikely to Stay (A Parker Lake Novel #3) by Olivia Sherwood

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author.

CC is a hairdresser and loves her job. The older ladies are driving her mad with new colors and it’s making her job harder. Then a big fundraiser comes around making her friends buy her a date from the auction. The quote I chose for CC is: “I’m almost finished and then you’ll have to sit for a bit while the color sets. Then I’ll style it up and you can be on your way. I’ll have you looking like a shamrock in no time.”

Brant is new to town and working his way through school. Taking the job in Parker proves difficult, but he’s loving it. Especially when he meets CC and goes out with her. The quote I chose for Brant is: “It’s an honor. Totally what I went to nursing school to do.”

Master Trentino: Dark Vampire Romance (Masters of the Consulate #3) by Sylvia Black

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. It won’t be my last either. I’ve loved every book in the Masters of the Consulate Series so far. Master Trentino is an amazing book and I certainly hope this series never ends.

Trentino is out to question Lazareth, but doesn’t make it in time. When he meets Angel he tells her that they’d meet again, he didn’t quite know what he was getting himself into. The quote I chose for Trentino is: “Unfortunately, but I’ll be back in a few hours. Can you make dinner arrangements for tomorrow? I’d like a table reserved for three at the Pleasure Palace, around eight p.m. I’m meeting with colleagues, and it can get pretty busy on a Friday night.”

Angel is caught by the mysterious Trentino and for some reason can’t help but fall for him. She is turned by him and really can’t seem to keep herself from him. She goes to her best friend when her store is broken into. The quote I chose for Angel is: “Absolutely not. Best friend or not, don’t make me regret telling you, Kelsey. If Roman finds out, I’m going to know exactly who ratted me out. The three of them are absolutely smothering me right now, and if they get wind of this? No, just no. I’ll get some security measures put in place and that’ll be the end of it. I’m twenty-three years old, I can take care of myself.”

Highly recommended for Vampire Romance lovers.

Piasa (The Legends Series #3) by Maggie Adams

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Piasa is a great read and I really hope to see more of the series. The Legends Series is fantastic and I’ll be looking for the first two.

Delta is daydreaming when her friend comes into the shop. Being a shaman isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be. The quote I chose for Delta is: “It’s nightmares. The night I almost died replays in my mind. I see many different scenarios on how it ended. I’ll get over it.”

Jackson is a Dragon shifter and is the last of his kind (from what I’ve gathered). His buddy shows up to tell Jax bad news. The quote I chose for Jackson is: “And where the hell are we, Noah –the fucking Bronx? We are in the middle of the goddamn Great Plains. And I know it’s possible because I killed him myself. And another thing – the damn thing has human-like characteristics because it possesses human beings. The wendigo is known to encourage the desire to cannibalize other humans, as well as the propensity to commit murder. You know that my ancestors were associated with them according to the folklore.”

Highly recommended for Native American Paranormal lovers.

Ember’s Secret (Solstice Quartet #1) by Catherine Peace

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Ember’s Secret is a great read and an easy one at that. The next book is something I’m looking forward to.

Ember has always had a dream, but doesn’t think she can make it happen. When she meets Austin it’s close to Solstice. With his help will she be able to make her dream come true? The quote I chose for Ember is: “These dishes turned into a blend of traditional and … something. I wouldn’t call it fusion, but it’s different. Maybe more Americanized than I’d like. I tried a new appetizer and new entree. Wanted to get your opinion.”

Austin is a foodie by heart and wants to own his own restaurant. Breaking down in the middle of nowhere may be a blessing in disguise. Can he make his dream of settling down and being a chef come true? The quote I chose for Austin is: “Getting down those ideas you mentioned last night and implementing them as soon as possible.”

Highly recommended for Paranormal Fantasy lovers.

Kissing Darkness (Dark Spell Series #5) by Isra Sravenheart

This is another fantastic read by the author. Each of the Dark Spell Series is good, but this tops the charts. Kissing Darkness is an amazing read.

Isra is a good witch for now, but she’s close to being a witch of darkness. She is trying to be stopped, but can she be stopped? The quote I chose for Isra is: “Huh? You know about me, how interesting! That’s my dragon. His name is Franco.”

Astrid overhears a conversation he wasn’t supposed to. James won’t befriend Isra and Sam wants to stop her. He gets to Isra before they can. Can he bring her to the dark side? The quote I chose for Astrid is: “Actually, I’ve just come back from witnessing Isra give up her heart to darkness.”

Highly recommended for Witch lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Thief of Magic (Shadowed Minds #1) by Bree Moore

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Thief of Magic is the first book in the Shadowed Minds Series. I love this book and can’t wait for the next book. The author is now on my list of many authors that I’m on the watch for.

Lee is a Liminal and going to die if she doesn’t get the cure. The only thing she’s gotta do is make it until she can get to the people who made her this way. Finn being the new guy is also the one who may be able to save her. The quote I chose for Lee is: “Agent of the devil, hellion, whatever it was? Yes, yes I did. Every newbie needs a chance to prove themselves.”

Adam is an FBI Agent and needs to catch a Liminal. Catching her might prove to be difficult until he gets the chance to join their team. He falls for her and might be the only one to save her from herself. The quote I chose for Adam is: “Our department is the only one using the funding! Unless you’ve already started funding the CSI, there’s no reason the money can’t be used to purchase relevant tech or hire new people for the FBI.”

Highly recommended for Supernatural Fantasy lovers.
