Broken Circle (Gray Ghost #1)Broken Circle by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Broken Circle, A Gray Ghost Novel Book, one by Amy McKinley was a good read that I was able to sit down and get right into reading and not wanting to put it down. Olivia, wanting to get away from her family and the games of politics marries a dedicated and new detective, Alex. Thinking that the life she has built with Alex will be simple, she is shocked when his career turns from Police work to Politics.
This story gave me, action, romance, danger and the suspense to want me to keep reading. There are so many questions and secrets that come out in this book, but again it’s another element that keeps you wanting more and more of Olivia and Alex. I highly recommend this book and this author, I can’t wait to read book two and more from this author. The attention to detail, the strong characters, and storyline made this book a 5 star read!

Eye of the Storm (Gray Ghost #2)Eye of the Storm by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Eye of the Storm is A Gray Ghost Novel book 2. It can be read as a standalone but there are a couple of characters from book one. This is also my second book by McKinley and it will not be my last.
This story is quite the adventure. While fighting the jungles of Columbia, the Ramirez cartel, and the guerrillas looking for blood, how is a girl supposed to find romance and love!? The very first page starts us on our adventure with a man stuck in a tree, upside down with no memories. Is he the good guy? The enemy? Our hero?

Enters Mari. She’s running. Running from the jungle, the cartel, the guerrillas and even her past. We feel a bond and a sense of urgency that Mari needs to get to safety. Enters Hannah. She seems to be a know it all tough fighter of a woman. But McKinley doesn’t let us love or hate her just yet. We, the readers, are left wondering if we can really even trust her. Enters the mysterious unconscious man, who was stuck in the tree, named Chris. Why can’t he remember anything? Can anyone be trusted?

McKinley writes a story of intrigue and mystery. Confusion and courage, trust and understanding. Good story line. I look forward to reading more from McKinley.

Amy knows how to keep you engaged and guessing all the way through to the end with all the thrills, spills and more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Broken Circle is the first book in the A Gray Ghost Novel by Amy McKinley and what a read. ​It is a contemporary romance novel that has a myriad of twists and turns and thrills to spill. The fear and chaos, drama and suspense will have you rooted to the spot, waiting for what happens next, biting your nails and heart beating fast.

Liv and Alex are living the perfect life a love like theirs doesn’t come along to often. After some unusual behaviour, Liv wonders what is going on, something is not right. When she reveals her secret never in a million years could she have dreamed what that secret would put in motion. A secret that in turns brings another dangerous secret past to light that will change her life forever. A secret that has deadly consequences for everyone she comes in contact with. This story takes quite a dramatic turn of events where love and wonder turn to fear and horror.

If you are looking for something that has it all then Broken Circle is a must.

Broken Circle (Gray Ghost #1)Broken Circle by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Broken Circle is my first book by Amy McKinley. I felt the beginning was slow to start but I still had the huge feeling that something very bad was on its way. No big surprise that the bad was actually Liv’s own in laws and maybe even her husband, Alex….NOOOOO. Please not the husband.

I loved watching Liv grow and realize that she is strong enough, smart enough and very capable of her own safety and happiness.

A little before the half way point we learn just how bad things are and how bad they just might get. Alex’s family holds secrets that Liv may not want to know. Is Alex hiding something from his wife? Even from his family? The twists in this book kept me turning the pages. And then along comes Liam! Will Liam be the knight in shining armor we need/want? Will Liv be able to live up to her potential!?

This book left me with many feelings of heartbreak, confusion, longing, and hope. I am sure many of the same feeling Liv experienced throughout the story.

Definitely recommend this book and am looking forward to reading more from McKinley.

Taken (Five Fates #2)Taken by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Taken is the second book in the Five fates series by Amy McKinley. I have to say while I love the first book, Hidden, I loved this book even more. This book follows Layla and Thaull. I truly love how Amy McKinley has once again created a world full of mythology, paranormal, and a touch of romance. She again was able to pull me right in and follow two broken yet strong characters. While lost in the amazing world that Amy created, I love how this book is about trust, trust not just in yourself but trust in those that are around you.

Layla, who is cursed by the Fates, make a promise to herself. She promises that she will never be at someone else’s mercy. When certain things are sent in motion, things change. People want her dead due to the skills she has, she also finds out many are using her for those skills that could wind up killing her one day. Her skills just won’t just hurt her but could hurt the family she loves so much. Layla needs to trust someone, in order to save herself and her family. Thaull, who is dealing with soul divide and clan turmoil hangs in the balance. To avoid his soul ripping in half, he knows that he must find love, the love of a female freely given, can save him and his soul. What happens when she can be dark from her curse and he can go numb for his?
Amy give us another story that is always busy and action packed. I truly love how with all the fantasy, paranormal, and mythology you find two amazing characters who need and want love no matter what they want to say. I love how these two characters mesh so well together and how easily it is for me to picture this amazing world that they live in. I give this book five stars and I so am ready to dig into the rest of the series. I admit, this book has really changed my view on this genre, Thank you Amy McKinley.

Hidden (Five Fates, Bk 1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Heidi Eich Woodring

Hidden (Five Fates, #1)Hidden by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hidden the first book in the Five Fates series by Amy McKinley. The series is about five sisters that are cursed by the fates and hidden on earth. Hidden follows Jade and Roen, a demon who is a fierce warrior. This book has paranormal, mythology, and a great romance. I love Amy’s writing style especially her attention to detail and when romance links with danger, it’s a shoe in for me. This is the first book I have read by the author and I have to say that I was not disappointed. If you love mythology then I must say that this is the book for you. I am hoping all five sisters get a book. I truly loved that Jade was made into such a strong character and not weak like many are.

Jade, who is half demon and half goddess, have been hidden and trying to stay that way with Oneiroi. She finds a mural and knows that she has found true love and needs to find him before Oneiroi. Roen, a demon, a part a clan hidden for years, feels is mate in his dream. When they finally see each other, Jade is taken by Roens uncle and he knows he must protect her at all costs. Not only do Roen and Jade find true love but they are also together to fight and overcome so much evil. Will Rone and Jade find love they both crave? Will they give into the connection they both feel? So many questions will arise as you read this and as you get the answers you will fall in love with this story.

I love how Amy, take Greek Mythology and adds her own spin on it. She had me engrossed in this story from the first page, which is I loved. This is not my normal genre but I love how the book had love, action, and that kept me engrossed on an amazing story line. I give this book 4 stars and I cannot wait to read about Jades sisters and their journey. I love how Amy created a supernatural world that will just suck you in.
