September Breeze (Cinnamon Bay Romance Book 2) by Nikki Lynn Barrett

5 Stars

I did not read the first of this series and that is ok because this can be read as a standalone but it let me know I need to grab the first as well.

I loved this story, it had a lot of moving parts not just a boy meets girl. they fall in love and live happily ever after. This one had issues thrown as these two from every angle, from her past to his past and even his future. I loved the small town feel of this story and the matchmakers trio cracked me up.

I have loved every book I’ve read by this author and if this book is any indication of the rest of this series then I will definitely have them all. I was done before I knew it because it was an easy smooth flowing read. I loved all the characters and there were a couple parts where I teared up and some where I had a huge smile on my face. This was just an all around feel good read and I can’t wait for more.

Loved It!!

This was really interesting read it had me hooked that’s for sure. I love how it was written from the past but also the present that is something I haven’t experienced very often which made it even more of an exciting read. I love reading a novel where you just get caught up within the story and lose sense of time it’s a magical feeling!

Fools Rush In (Interstellar Rescue Series Book 3) by Donna S. Frelick – Review by Katie Matthews

Fools Rush In (Interstellar Rescue, #3)Fools Rush In by Donna S. Frelick
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Fools Rush In is the great 3rd book in the Interstellar Rescue series and yet again another wonderful read by this author. I would highly recommend that these books are read in order for the maximum reader enjoyment however it can be read as a standalone. Again what stood out for me in this book apart from the great characters was the author’s wonderful world building. Her richly detailed writing makes the setting for this story and the characters completely come alive. I think out of this series so far this one is probably my favourite, I loved that it took place more in space than the previous books, I really felt like I was watching the story at times rather than just reading it.
I loved the characters, especially Rayna; she was a fantastic female lead, strong willed, independent and definitely not someone to be messed with. I liked Sam as well and when the two met I could tell that their relationship was going to be a good one!
Fools Rush in is another wonderful read in this series and again I highly recommend it!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Al Capone at the Blanche Hotel was a really great read. I was intrigued when I first read the blurb for the story, it sounded like something different to read – I have to be honest and say I was actually really surprised at how much I actually liked it. The authors writing was really good, my interest was captured from the beginning and was sustained the whole way through. I love historical romance books but this is the first time I have read one in this time period and I really liked it, it was interesting to read about a different time period. The author really brought the characters to life and I found I was fully immersed in their story. Although the story alternated between past and present the story was really easy to follow.
Overall I really enjoyed this story and would absolutely recommend it to other readers.

Al Capone at The Blanche Hotel by Linda Bennett Pennell. This a new to me author but i saw this title and I absolutely knew that I had to read this book!!!! I have always been a HUGE fan of Al Capone. This book takes place in the 1930s when Al Capone stayed there. This book everything that I have always wanted to read about. I loved reading about how people lived in the 30s and also experience how the characters, Zeke, Jack and Meg, lived and what they went through.
I can not wait to see what the author has in store for us next!!!

The Flood by Meghan O’Flynn – Review by Lisa Helmick

The FloodThe Flood by Meghan O’Flynn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ok this is NOT what I thought it would be. I thought it would be about a group of people who all ended up at the same place for shelter. Well I guess this is that but this so much darker or maybe evil is a better word. This story embodies the question of what would you do to survive. Everyone has limits but some are a little further down the line than others. Needless to say the character construction was really good (typical of Meghan O’Flynn). There are layers upon layers with each character. Just when you think…i have it figured out! Guess what? You don’t!

This isn’t my first Meghan O’Flynn Book and It is not my favorite. This was a little gruesome for me and there was too much narrative(too much time spent in Victoria’s head). That’s not to say it’s not a good story because it is…just not my kind of story.

Fools Rush In (Interstellar Rescue, #3)Fools Rush In by Donna S. Frelick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Fools Rush In, is the third book in the Interstellar Rescue Series by Donna S. Frelick. I can’t convey how much I have really enjoyed reading this book, and series- it has been an awesome ride, which I hope will continue for a long while yet!
This superb space adventure- has a bit of a “Firefly” feel to it- and I also think the series would make a wonderful television show. It has so much going for it, from the clever sci-fi elements, to the brilliant world building, with lots of drama, danger, suspense, emotion, action, adventure, and intrigue- which was all woven in and around a steamy romance.
I actually consider this book to be a bit of a prequel to the series, as this takes us back to when and how Rayna and Sam meet. She was already working undercover for Interstellar Rescue, and he was a space pirate. Their story is everything I had hoped it would be, and I enjoyed getting to know them even better than I already did. I have loved Rayna and Sam from the moment I met them, so getting their whole story has been the icing on the cake for me. Rayna might be petite, but she’s no pushover- she’s brave, strong, skilled, funny, optimistic, and sassy- with a huge heart! She’s someone you would want on your team! Sam reminds me a lot of Malcolm Reynolds (Mal) from “Firefly”- he’s sexy, adventurous, and just a little cheeky. He meets his match in Rayna though, and how the sparks fly! One of my favourite couples, yet!
OMG, now that I have finished all the books in the series (to date), I really, really, really hope there are many more to come- and soon!!! (Hint, Hint, Hint, Ms. Frelick!) ?
Such an entertaining, well written and intriguing story/series- highly recommended!!

Thank you, Ms. Frelick!

This wonderful story is specifically targeted to an audience in the tween/teen category. It is detailed, quirky, quick witted, and deals solidly with real troubles facing that age group without being condescending or belittling. I found the premise charming and the MC relatable and funny. I really enjoyed reading this book and believe, no matter what age you are, you will find something to love in these pages.

5-Stars

Dangerously Close To Extinction (Knollville Legends Book 1) by C.A. King was a fun and exciting fantasy novel. I loved Tawny and Felix and the variety of shifters in this novel. The author did an amazing job and was very creative with them. I also really enjoyed the plot and felt that the storyline was easy to follow. The reader is immediately pulled in at the start of the novel with the mention of Tawny’s dad disappearing. The story progressed quickly from the start which made it difficult for me to put down.

Something else I enjoyed about this novel was the artistic cover. It was very appealing and I felt like it drew me in and helped increase my interest in reading the novel.

Overall this novel was an easy and enjoyable read. I definitely look forward to the next book in the series and I highly recommend it!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What an excellent start to the Shattered Hearts Series! I actually read this book twice in the matter of a week. While this story revolves around Jasmine and Angel, it ultimately is the story of a group of friends that have known each other forever and there are so many things going on, I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss anything before I start book 2!

Angel swore he would always be there for Jasmine. Since childhood, he has been her protector. But once he joins the marines, he can no longer uphold his promise and tragedy strikes, not only in Jasmine’s life but also in his own. Years later he returns home to find everything has changed. Jasmine is no longer the happy, innocent young girl he left, but a full grown woman that he can’t seem to resist. But there is too much baggage between the two of them that keeps pulling them apart. They each have one single act, one single moment in their lives that has irrevocably changed them. That has made one stop trusting others and one stop trusting themselves. One moment, that when it returns to your thoughts, terrifies you enough that it takes you to the depths of hell and back over and over – in your daydreams and in your nightmares. Can they fight their way through it all and finally be together? Or is it all just too much?

This book takes you on an emotional rollercoaster. You can feel the pain and suffering. You can feel it in your heart when they smile. And this is not the end. There is so much more to explore. What about Kate and Chase? What is Tony’s deal? Who is Marcus? I can’t wait to find out all the answers in the next two books in this series! I am completely emotionally invested in the lives of all these characters. Nicole Banks has me hooked!

This book is a fantastic read and I devoured it from cover to cover.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Flood by Meghan O’Flynn is a psychological thriller that leaves you speechless! I have read most of Meghan’s books so I thought I was prepared for the wickedness but I tell you, I was in no way prepared … she simply blew my mind and that from the prologue on … my goodness, the pictures she paints in your head using the words, I could not fall asleep the night I finished the book!
The writer has given us a story that is a mix of suspense and mystery that is so twisted and nightmarish that you start looking over your shoulder and jump at the weird sounds! There is so much more there that meets the eye, the massive flood in the small coastal town in Louisiana and a couple – Chad and Victoria – being rescued by a woman called Windy taking the to a waterproof bunker … and then it starts surfacing and be prepared as nothing will prepare you! Keep your light on and sleep with one eye open!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. I was so happy when this talented author came out with a new series. This is the first book in the Shattered Heart series and it was a perfect beginning. I was so excited for this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. Once I started I could not stop. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible story.

Angle is finally home safe and sound from the war. He has a lot of guilt in his heart due to the past. Angle is home to find a new beginning and her. He can’t stop thinking about Jasmine. She is always on his mind. Angle knows that it is wrong because she deserves so much better than him. He can’t help himself but when Jasmine starts telling her secrets, that’s when his true nightmare begins. Will these two broken souls find peace in each other or will their pasts destroy them both?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and forgiveness. You can’t help but fall in love with these characters. Angle had a very hard life but he learned from his mistakes. He would do anything to make Jasmine happy even leave her for good. Jasmine is a very strong character. She had something really devastating happen to her that rock her world. Jasmine has a lot of trust issues but will she finally be able to trust someone with her heart? These two characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This author will have you at the edge of your seats until the end. I can’t wait to read more of this series.

The Flood by Meghan O’Flynn is an exciting and intense psychological thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. This book has to be my favourite one by this author so far. The whole way through I was trying to figure out what was going to happen. Each time I thought I had it susses the author would throw in another twist or a new bit of information that threw it all back on its head.
The book was such an intense read. I think partially because I could almost picture something like this happening – people stranded for days without food due to unprecedented storms. The author did a great job of basing the book firmly enough in reality that it gave the book an edge to it that most like this seem to be missing.
Meghan Flynn has fast become one of those authors that I don’t bother to read the book descriptions because I know how much I will enjoy it. This is one book that I cannot recommend highly enough. You really need to get your copy today.

Fools Rush In is the third book in the Interstellar Rescue Series by Donna Frelick. These books can be a stand alone book, but you would get more enjoyment if you would read all the books in this series. Frelick paints a beautiful picture in my mind’s eye with her storytelling skills. Her characters are interactive and fully developed. I feel as if the characters are my best friends. Rayna is on a mission but she is finding herself convincing Sam a pirate to assist her. What will Sam assist Rayna in? Will it be just a mission or will there be something more?

This is my first book by this author and don’t have any idea why…It was amazing, it did take me a few pages to get fully immersed into the story but once it grabbed me it did not let go and I already can not wait to open the next in this series and see what is still in store for Jasmine and Angel. Things were just getting good when this book ended and Thank goodness the next one is waiting for me on my kindle.

The back and forth between these characters was rough to read, so much blame being doled out not at anyone but themselves and I can’t even imagine what Jas had been through and then the loss they all had to endure. I really loved getting the POV’s of many different characters instead of just one or two, I haven’t read many books like that and I sincerely enjoyed that part.

I highly recommend this book and as I’ve already stated can not wait to dive in to the next, I love the writing style and the flow, I could not believe I had finished so quickly.

I finished this book a few days ago and have not been able to find the words to put in this review, and I’m still not sure but going to give it my best shot.

I’m not sure if I would have chosen this book without this author’s name on it, she became a favorite of mine back while reading her Ash Park Series and now I think I’d read anything she comes up with. Choosing this book after reading the synopsis proves that.

This story affected me from word one, I was totally invested in Victoria’s character and I can not explain why but everything that occurred in this book opened up new sides to her and I truly felt like I understood her.

The rest of this story was a complete mystery that revealed itself little by little..One of those you get a whole lot of AHA moments and then immediately start trying to figure out more. I seriously had so many different endings going on in my head and was so amazed at how completely wrong I was from the start.

I thought this book would give me nightmares and thankfully it has not, but I still get chill bumps when I think about the story or even see the cover. It was AMAZING, written so that you could almost feel, see, smell, and hear exactly what these people were and I can’t recommend it enough. This amazes me because again I wouldn’t normally choose this genre but again I’ll choose anything by this author!!

Out BadOut Bad by Janice M. Whiteaker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Out Bad is the first book in the Sinner or Saints Series by Janice M. Whiteaker. I have really loved Ms. Whiteaker’s BIG series, so I was excited to explore her other works too. This is a great contemporary romance with alpha male, reformed bad boy, and Biker/MC elements to it. There is angst, guilt, pain, inner turmoil, drama, and emotion.
I really did feel for Joe. He is such a sweet and caring bad boy turned good. He did frustrate me at times with his inner dialogue and over thinking and all the over analyzing that he did. He really beat himself up for his past mistakes and spent a lot of time trying to make amends. I understand that he was looking for redemption, but the inner ‘bashing’ got a little much at times. Gwen was such a strong, independent , hardworking, smart, and sassy character- but that’s not to say she didn’t have her own issues she was dealing with. Joe set his sights on her and was determined to find a way to make her his. She was only looking for a ‘goodtime’ and was determined to keep things strictly casual. Will he find a way to get her to give him a chance? What happens when the past returns and threatens everything?
And after reading this book, I am excited to not only continue the series, but to find the connection to the Lost Boy MC series which I will dive into asap!

Thank you, Ms. Whiteaker!

She also has no idea why people are after her dad but when all these secrets from her past start coming to light it begins to make sense. Throw in one of the guys after her being super hot and throws a whole new spin on everything. This book is full of shifters, werewolves, dangerous adventures and its for sure a page turner.

Neither sharing those horrors with the other. Their friendship is put to the test when they realize the heat between them is so much more than just friends.

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by TL Clark was an intriguing read that hooks you from the start, and keeps you until the last page is flipped.

As a fan of historical fiction, I was excited to read this book. Right out of the gate I was pulled in, and was transported back in time to a place of lace, ball gowns, courting and titles. It was well researched, authentic, and the detail not only paints a realistic pictured, it brings you into the story itself. The world building was top shel, and the characters were well written, well rounded complex and compelling. My only complaint, is that this book is a bit on the longer side, over 400 pages. I found there was some filler along the way, I first notice it at the start with a letter to the MC’s younger sister. I get what was trying to be done, as I am a fan of Jane Austen, but I feel like that letter didn’t add to the plot, and was a bit dry. But other than that, I was impressed with this read, and I will be checking out more from this author.

Overall this book is worth your time and energy. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that weather if you like this genres or not, this book will take you back to a time long gone, and will give you that inside look into the minds of the women who at the time, did not have choices of their own.

Happy Reading

Fools Rush In was a good 4 star read and book 3 in the Interstellar Rescue series. This can be read as a stand alone.

This is Rayna and Sam’s story. Rayna is an agent for the Interstellar Rescue service and Sam is a space pirate. This story takes place in space.

Sam meets Rayna when he and his crew take down a slaver ship, Rayna was on board undercover. Sam ends up ruining Rayna’s work and quickly finds himself in some unexpected trouble. Rayna and Sam join forces to fight together, spending time together also causes sparks to fly between them.

Will they be able to defeat the enemy? Will they get a HEA?

We get a lot of action and edge of your seat moments. Both Rayna and Sam are very strong characters. The bantering between Rayna and Sam had me LOL at times, they were perfect for each other. We also get some hot and steamy moments as well. The secondary characters added a great element to the story. If you’re looking for a great series, 1-click and get started today.

One genre that I really enjoy is books that are about the supernatural, including shifters. I find them interesting. So, as I began this book, I was curious to find out how this book by C.A. King would explore this genre and would there be anything new and surprising that I had not seen before. I was pleasantly surprised, this author did manage to introduce something new into the mix. For me, it was too short. I wanted it to go further. I will be on the look out for the next installment of this universe because C.A. King left me wanting more.

Shattered (Shattered Hearts #1)Shattered by Nicole Banks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Shattered (Shattered Hearts Series Book 1) by Nicole Banks is a great romance story that was full of emotions that are at times stifling. There is angst and fear, hurt and love, fragility and vulnerability, horror and sadness as we watch our characters reflect on the past and how it is affecting them now. The heartache and pain these characters are going through broke my heart. These two young people had been through so much in their short lives that they are so broken and realise just how much they need each other to heal. This story is told in multiple POV’s which gives us a better look at these complex yet simplistic loving young people. Nicole has done a wonderful job in taking us on this journey and has portrayed them will real feelings that make you want to take them in and hug them. Everything they feel, you feel right along with them. I also loved the banter that went on amongst this group of friends which often had me laughing along with them. Then we feel the tension and the explosive sizzle between Angel and Jas that jumps right of the page.

Jas is a former shell of herself since she went through something so horrible that it broke her and she doesn’t know how to fight her way back. The one person she needed was not there when she needed him, wasn’t there to protect her, wasn’t there to love her. But now he is back and can he be the one she needs? Can he be the one to love her and help her find her true self once again?

Angel is good at walking away and now he finds out that the one person he came home for is dealing with something that has left her broken. He so desperately wants to help her but doesnt know how and doesn’t know how to help himself. Can he truly be the man that she needs? Will he learn her secret?

I read this book in one sitting because I could not put it down. This is a great start to the series. When I got to the end of the book I wanted to slap Nicole because I need to know who, I need to know what happens and I was left hanging. Well played Ms Banks. I need the follow on book NOW!
