My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in Meraka series. The author tells past love stories with grandma while allowing us to connect with Kristina and Loukas story that unfolds through out the pages. I love the take the author incorporated bringing the current pandemic to the scene and allowing us to see how people worked though it. There are more stories to be told in future books of this series and I can’t wait to read more.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have read a lot of books by this author but the twist in the book definitely was a surprise. It took me a bit longer to connect with the characters than it normally does. Although, once I was able to connect with them, I felt right at home with this book. Raven’s life story makes you fall in love with her character and Dwarf is your typical MC rider. This was a good read and can’t wait for more in this series.

I love the Satan’s Devils MC series of books. The author didn’t disappoint this read with the story of Marvel and Virginia.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The author does a great job in this fifth book of the Mafia Elite Series. This book can be read as a stand-alone, but why would you wanna do that and miss out on the other great books in this series. The five families bring Luc, the long lost brother(which Luc knows nothing about) in to complete the circle of the new rein of bosses. Luc brings Summer along, his newly met secretary, along with her being his one night stand from the night before, in to the Mafia family and little do they know what’s in store for their new lives. You don’t want to miss Luc and Summer’s story.

Red's Peril Part 2: The Prez's Old Lady (Satan's Devils MC Vegas #2)Red’s Peril Part 2: The Prez’s Old Lady by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is part 2 of Red’s story and to really get the full effect of the story line you need to read Red’s Peril part 1. Being left with a cliffhanger in part 1, I couldn’t wait to read part 2, and it did not disappoint. The Satan’s Devils family has grown on me and each and every story is special in their own right, while including past characters to keep them involved in the story line.
Red begins to romance Cher to prove to her that they belong together after their chance encounter and you get to watch the MC family envelope this newcomer into the fold as if she has belonged there all along.
Can’t wait to see what else is in store for the next Satan’s Devils book.

I love a good mafia book and better yet a series. After reading the first book of this series, I couldn’t wait to learn more about the five families. Blood Oath, doesn’t disappoint.

This romantic suspense gives you a good dose of mafia, true love and friendship all rolled into a great story.

I fell in love with the Satan’s Devils MC family from the very beginning so many books ago. Red has appreared in numerous books and now it’s his time for his own story. I love that book one of Red’s Peril gives us his history, one that we have never been privy to before. Like all books through out the SDMC series, you fall in lust with the biker and can’t wait for more. Waiting around for book 2 is gonna be hard, but I know if will be worth the wait.

Forever:A Diamond Doms novel, is the last book of this series. I enjoy a good BDSM book and this book does not disappoint. This is my first read of the series and although I hadn’t been introduced to the characters before, it was easy to follow along.

One can read “Hold me Forever” as a stand-alone although it’s a part of the Heron Harbor Series. This is my first book by Lea Nolan and she didn’t disappoint. The characters are well written leaving you a desire to learn more about them and their stories. Also, who doesn’t love a second chance romance. Lark and Hunter’s romance will draw you in and have you start cheering them in no time. Find some time to sit down and enjoy this book, you won’t regret it.
