This Night Has Ended: A Dark Supernatural Fantasy (Vampire State #5) by Alexander Charalambides

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. This is also the first book I’ve read in the Vampire State Series. This Night Has Ended is the fifth book in the Vampire State Series. This book will have you hanging on to every word.

Rowena is a human who is turning into a vampire thanks to her boyfriend. Rowena stands up for humans and others don’t like that. Now they’re in danger and she wants to protect them. The quote I chose for Rowena is: “Shut up, let’s go up to my office, people are less likely to see us and we can watch the street for Quintus.”

Vincenzo is a vampire and is sticking by Rowena’s side. He is helping her with what she wants to do. The studio is somewhere they can stay safe while they figure out their next move. The quote I chose for Vincenzo is: “We’re mapping the city, assigning scarcity and danger levels based on first hand reports, telling people where to stay away from or go to, that kind of thing, take this, find them on the map, red pin for dangerous, green pin for safe, black pin for places we still aren’t sure about.”

Highly recommended for Dystopian Romance lovers.

Now he’s feeling things he shouldn’t for Greer and that can be dangerous. The quote I chose for Theron is: “Well, you’re right about one thing, your friend is at the end. I told that blasted fool to go easy on her. She’s supposed to last until he can move on to the husband. But you’re wrong if you think you can do anything about it. You, my little rabbit, can’t hurt us. Even if you were at full strength.”

Always have been. But I haven’t always been at peace with it either, so I don’t know what advice to give you. Listen. You’d better go now. I’m too tired to play shrink right now. You look like a great guy, but to be honest, apart from a good f***, I’d rather steer clear of complicated relationships, male or female. And I’m guessing you’re not ready for a quick romp. So good luck and good night.”

5/5 Stars

Reigning Hearts: The Complete Series (Books 1-5) by K.G. Fletcher

I’ve read several books by the author. A Cold Creek Christmas is the only book in the series I’ve read previously, but the others make sense. Now I know where Amber is from. The entire series is amazing and I hope there’s more.

Run to the Sea is the first book in the Reigning Hearts Series. Emeline wishes her best friend would just come home for good. Thomas didn’t make it back in time to say goodbye to his grandfather. With Emmy and Cappy back together will his grandfather’s wish come true?

Emeline is working two jobs or three if you count her hobby. When an old friend shows up she notices that he’s not the same person. They get together to catch up and things take a turn for the better. The quote I chose for Emeline is: “A few. The diner is the most consistent. I work there several times a week. I also work at the main gallery in Pineapple Grove on the weekends. The Arts Center calls me every other week to model for their drawing classes, and I help some of the contractors in the area refinish cabinetry or do demo work when they get slammed.”

Thomas didn’t come back for his grandfather’s funeral. Now he’s back in town to take care of the cottage and gallery. Running into Emmy wakes something in him and he can’t let it go. The quote I chose for Thomas is: “You’ve left me…speechless. God, Emmy. You standing there in that dress. You took the breath right out of my lungs. You’re beautiful. Aren’t you going to invite me inside?”

Stars Fall from the Sky is the second book in the Reigning Hearts Series. Ginger loses something precious to her. Jonathon lost something precious to him a year ago. Can the two of them move past their hurt and be together?

Jonathon is a widower. He’s new in town and the new town doctor. He meets Ginger and can’t seem to get her off his mind. He wants her in his life and won’t take no for an answer. The quote I chose for Jonathon is: “I’m not sorry you kissed me. I’m glad it happened. And I’m glad you let me kiss you back. I know what you’re doing—you feel guilty, and your mind is going crazy with negative thoughts. You have nothing to feel guilty about. You know as well as I do we’re allowed to be happy again. Life can go on, you know. And you’ve shown me, it can be really good.”

Ginger has just lost her husband. Now she isn’t sure what to do and how to move on. Her friends help her out by babysitting when the doc shows up. The quote I chose for Ginger is: “You know, Rusty used to tell me the same thing—about sharing my baked goods with the rest of the county. That’s why I always entered the Fall Festival Bake-Off and then started baking for a few friends here and there. And then those friends told others, you know, word of mouth?”

A Sun So Bright is the third book in the Reigning Hearts Series. We see Cappy’s ex again. Fiona gets her own love story. Chris has met her once before and gets his chance.

Chris is a bartender and owns a country house away from the hustle and bustle of the city. He loves what he does and loves his home even more. Then everything changes when he meets Fiona. The quote I chose for Chris is: “I’ve got a few things I need to tie up behind the bar. I can be out of here in fifteen minutes. Why don’t you finish your drink and I’ll come back over when I’m done.”

Fiona is getting over the fact that she lost Thomas. Now she has to grieve the death of her dad. She’s depressed and when she finds out Chris’s mom is sick she helps. The quote I chose for Fiona is: “My father used to take me to the New York City Library when I was a little girl. It was the highlight of our week. Having my own library card was pretty amazing back then.”

I’ll See You Again is the fourth book in the Reigning Hearts Series. Nicky is going to get her chance at love. Mac might just find what he’s been missing.

Nicky loves her job and thanks to Fiona her dreams are coming true. She became good with money after their wedding. Going to The Good Pub after a long day proves to be better than she thought. The quote I chose for Nicky is: “Amber, I’m not some random groupie willing to go back to his hotel room. I mean, come on! Everyone in this town knows me. I have my reputation to consider. I’d be found out in a millisecond leaving everyone gossiping.”

Mac is a famous musician and is going on a world tour. Hitting Pubs in Scotland became his thing when trying out new music. Now it’s America’s turn. The Good Pub is a great place to start. And to maybe find love. The quote I chose for Mac is: “Aye. It was a bonny sunrise coming over the glen, lighting up the land and awakening all the animals. The simple pleasure of taking it all in with the special quietness of dawn—I have to admit, it’s my favorite time of the day.”

A Cold Creek Christmas is the fifth book in the Reigning Hearts Series. This book is amazing on its own without reading the rest of the series. Amber and Giovanni will leave you wanting more from the author.

Amber hasn’t ever had a Christmas that she has liked. When she meets Giovanni he opens her eyes to Christmas. The thought of him having a daughter scares her, but it doesn’t stop her. The quote I chose for Amber is: “He’s making breakfast? Of course he is. He’s a chef, Amber. Act surprised and enjoy every delicious morsel. And for God’s sake, don’t even suggest mimosas. Can’t have another repeat of last night.”

Giovanni is a single dad who is now living with his grandmother. He’s taking over her shop and needs to live up to her name. When he learns Amber’s story he vows to make it the best first Christmas she’s ever had. The quote I chose for Giovanni is: “I want to kiss you, Amber. I’ve wanted to kiss your pouty mouth all evening.”

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Finding Melodie and The Wedding: Boxset by Laura Rossi

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. This box set contains two sweet stories and a bonus chapter. Finding Melodie and The Wedding are both amazing stories.

Finding Melodie is about a street musician and a banker finding love. Isaac and Melodie are complete opposites, but then again they say opposites attract.

Melodie has given nicknames to everyone that passes by her while playing music. Office Guy, as she’s dubbed Isaac, comes to her one day for help. He’s going to ask his girlfriend to marry him. The quote I chose for Melodie is: “You don’t know you. I know you are a good man. It takes guts to do what you did, show your feelings, show how much you care. Nobody takes love seriously these days. It’s all too fast, too intense, too consuming. And it’s all gone in the blink of an eye. It takes guts, Isaac. And I shall not overlook this. I won’t let you stand down. Katy will just have to admit she was wrong.”

Isaac is hurt and finds himself in the company of a pink haired lady. In the process of trying to win Katy back he found himself. He finds himself falling for Melodie. The quote I chose for Isaac is: “I’m screwed, Melodie. I think my heart belongs to a Pixie. I think I’m in love with you.”

The Wedding is the sequel to Finding Melodie. It’s time to get married and meet the parents. Melodie is going to have a hard time trying to please his parents and it just might ruin them.

Melodie is the same girl from Finding Melodie. Now though she’s living with Isaac in his home and she loves it. She gets home early to surprise him only to surprise his parents. The quote I chose for Melodie is: “Breaking up is never easy, and when families are involved, it’s even more complicated. And I want to say, for argument’s sake, that I don’t normally go around undressed like that. Cynthia. I love your son so very much. No matter how unexpected it may look or sound, it’s the truth. I’m determined to make Isaac happy.”

Isaac is hitting the jackpot. He’s got the girl and the job. He turned down one promotion for another and is happy with life. His parents show up and find that he’s no longer with Katy. His mother just might ruin his chance of happiness. The quote I chose for Isaac is: “Please don’t take this the wrong way but, sir, quite frankly I don’t give a flying f**k what you, my mother or anyone else thinks. This is between Melodie and me and only Melodie and me.”

This is another amazing read by the author. Exit Strategy is the last book in the Nite Fire Series. I’m sad to see the series coming to an end, but it was a great read.

Saving Marvel (Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #4) by Manda Mellett

Another great read by the author. Saving Marvel is the fourth book in the Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation Series. Cash, Marvel, is going to get the shock of his lifetime.

Cash, aka Marvel, is at the bank when all hell breaks loose. He and the MC aren’t behind it, but now he’s stuck as a hostage. Sneaking into the Loan department he finds he’s not alone. The quote I chose for Marvel is: “I nearly got married once.”He glances sideways, then seems to find a mark on the floor more interesting and focuses on that. “In some ways, it was a blessing we hadn’t tied the knot, in others…. In others, it was a f***ing disaster. But we didn’t.”

Virginia is at the bank hoping to get a loan. She needs a new car, but it seems like life wants to throw her a new man. Being held hostage is not the way she planned on spending her day. The quote I chose for Virginia is: “My name is Virginia Case. Formerly Virginia Case-Roberts. Google me.”

Spring’s Showers: Romantically Seasonal: Spring by C.A. King

Another amazing read by the author. This is the first book in the Romantically Seasonal series. What can happen when Cupid gets against the other Gods?

Greta is Mother Nature and can make plants grow. When she plays poker with Gods and Cupid anything can happen. Now she’s got the task of finding a couple like Cupid does. Is it as easy as she thinks? The quote I chose for Greta is: “There are still a few good people in this world, aren’t there? Can’t a stranger help his fellow man out of the kindness of his heart anymore? Tsk. If it were Christmas time, no one would think twice about the matter. Why is December the only time humans can share goodwill? It makes no sense.”

Eros is Cupid and doesn’t get the credit he deserves. When he thinks about it he’s got the hardest job of them all. Now he’s going to bet them all that their jobs are easier. The quote I chose for Eros is: “I’ll guess I’ll see you when the time is right. Until then, I’m out. Greta, it’s been an adventure.”

Spring’s Calling: (A Witch Detective Urban Fantasy Novel) (Seasons of Magic #1) by Sarah Biglow

This isn’t the first book by the author that I’ve read. Biglow has a unique way of bringing her characters to life. Ezri’s story had me captivated from the beginning.

Ezri is the last Harrow daughter alive. She is told of the prophecy that involves her. Now the time has come and she’s not exactly ready to do it on her own. The quote I chose for Ezri is: “Damn right I am. And they need to know that the only way to stop me is to actually kill me, and if Taggart is their best guy, then they’re seriously going to need to up their game. Now, let’s see about getting you back to normal.”

The quote I chose for Arkon is: “I like to know exactly where things fall. I don’t like to leave things to chance. I make my own solution based on facts.

Class Clown by Allan Evans

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Class Clown sure didn’t cure my fear of clowns but it was funny. The author knows what to do to make readers stick around.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Deacon (Saints vs Sinners Series #1) by CJ Warrant

This is the first book by the author that I’ve read. Warrant has a way of drawing in readers and keeping them. Deacon is an amazing read and you’ll love it. It is the first book in the Saints vs Sinners Series.

Deacon is back for a friend’s funeral and learns about his father’s friend’s passing. He wants to stick around town, but with his ex being there it’s hard. On top of his mom being sick he doesn’t know what to do. The quote I chose for Deacon is: “I don’t know. Maybe. It’s a little too strange for me to think that Falcon, who was so anal about his motorcycles, would race someone like Dog and not make sure his bike was safe. I don’t know the details of that day, but I can’t buy into the fact that his engine blew during the race. Something had to have caused it without catching Falcon’s attention.”

Olivia is attending a funeral once again. First her father and now a friend. Deacon is back in town and she isn’t sure how to feel about that. Now her boyfriend wants her to give all that up. The quote I chose for Olivia is: “Christopher, Deacon and the rest of the guys sitting at that table are like my brothers. I grew up with them. They hung around my daddy’s place. They have been a part of my life forever, and to ignore them—”

Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.

Not after Arno Gant and what happened with Mayor Anderson.”

The Hunted (Vampire Navy SEAL: Sam & Layla #1) by S.B. Alexander

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. It won’t be my last by her either. The author had me entrapped from the moment I started reading. It’s a hard book to put down. This is the first book in the Vampire Navy SEAL Series.

Sam is a vampire who was turned by his father. He is a Navy SEAL and on the lookout for the bad guys. He must protect the humans, but when the Vampire Hunters come into play things get messy. Layla will be his and doesn’t know it. The quote I chose for Sam is: “You’re mine, Layla. That wasn’t a line to get you into bed.”

Layla has been hunting Vampires for as long as she can remember. Her sisters are working beside her on these hunts. Their father taught them what to do. Now they’ve got problem after problem. One sister is compelled, one sister is being held hostage, and she is stuck wanting to kill Sam or get him into bed. The quote I chose for Layla is: “You know, I just realized something. I’m going to enjoy killing you when you lose that bet you so confidently slapped on the table. I mean, if you keep me chained, I win. Right?”

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

Beelzebub: The Gift of Gluttony (A Sinful Seven Novel) by JC Brown & L. Lane

Beelzebub is the Demon of Gluttony. He gets in trouble by Michael when taking in hosts. He’s told not to do so again and then he sets his sights on Clara. A human and he’s not going to give her up. The quote I chose for Beelzebub is: “I can help you to be free. Free to be yourself, to do whatever you want, whenever you want to, free from feeling judged and trying to please others. By whispering words of encouragement and strength, I can help you find your heart’s desire. By working from within, I’ll provide guidance only you will hear.”

Clara is only human and is an empath. She feels everything others feel. She runs a bakery and when Beelzebub shows up she gets the shock of her life. Can she resist the Demon? The quote I chose for Clara is: “Money is nice. The bakery is doing so much better that I’ve had to hire several people to help me keep up. I guess I have you to thank for that. See, with all the extra money we’ve been making, I’ve been able to hire people to do all those things that I hate doing, like going shopping. I just place my order, and everything is done. And I found a couple of properties, in the middle of nowhere, that I’m considering buying. I might just buy both and use them as vacation places, I guess.”

Highly recommended for Paranormal Romance lovers.
