This book is just as fantastic as book 1!! I always love stories with vampires and a dark world. This story of Christian and Delilah….loved it. The Consulate is very powerful and disapproved Christian and Delilah’s mating and it ended up leaving her on death’s doorstep, and Christian had no other choice but to “turn” Delilah. Christian wants revenge on those who hurt Delilah. There is no doubt that Christian and Delilah’s love is tested….and their chemistry is great. I just love this book by Author Sylvia Black.

This book picks up where the first book leaves off…Vanessa has been flung into the Underworld with Grey. Grey doesn’t want her there and she is not sure what to do about that. As she is navigating her new life, she finds that things are not as they seem…and there seems to be more to her than meets the eye.
She is finding there are ways to communicate with Raef and Aroz. And she is still sorting through her feelings for Grey because she shouldn’t care what he thinks…right?!? But, as strange events start happening around her, she learns that there are other things at play here…and she just might be the way to fix it. But, can she do what it takes to make her world better? Or is she destined to spend eternity in such a drab place? (You have to read it to find out)
I enjoyed reading this book. The author has a way of describing the world in such a way that you feel like you can picture it. There are still a lot of unanswered questions (like what secret is their Mother holding on to)…so I’m hoping more will be explained in the next book.

This is another great read by Kells. Dark Bastard was an amazing read and I can’t wait for the next one. It’s part of A Dark Sparrow Series, but can be read as a standalone.
Ellie is trying to live one day at a time, but being a 911 dispatcher is hard. Especially when she thinks she can save someone’s life. The quote I chose for Ellie is: “And you know nothing about me, Sam. And yet, you stopped that final jump because of me. We’re strangers who have lost their way yet found each other. I see honor in you, a protector of your brothers. You may have reached the end of your rope that night, but I believe your strength is still greater than your pain. I don’t care that I don’t know everything about you. I think that for the moment, staying alive is the only solution we have.”
Sam is feeling lost and ready to give up on life. He decides to call his brother only to get a wrong number. When he does hear the person’s voice it changes everything for him. The quote I chose for Sam is: “I couldn’t forget the sadness in your voice when you hung up on me. It’s the only reason I persisted. I want nothing from you, just the reassurance that you’re all right.”

Avenging Devil Part 2: Satan’s Devil MC San Diego by Manda Mellett is more amazing than part 1! Part 1 left us with a cliffhanger but part 2? Oh my goodness.
Before we get started, I want to caution you that there are moments that can be a trigger for some.
Niran is willing to do anything to keep Saffie safe. Saffie has other “friends” that she connected with when living with the Wolves who end up helping her. And I love and are so excited for Niran & Saffie’s story and how they come together even after what seems to be a betrayal.
Part 2 shows us what the Satan’s Devils MC can do when the chapters come together to help a brother. There’s a connection between them all and the way the members welcome in those from other chapters that need help is amazing. A true family who cares for others even when they lead separate lives. Thank you Ms. Mellett for such an emotional but wonderful look into Saffie & Niran’s story!

Flirting with my enemy was the perfect recipe of romance suspense and suspicion! I enjoyed this book and felt like it flowed nicely! It was easy to read, I was anticipating the end right until I got there! Laura Burton did an excellent job and with my first book by her I definately will be keeping my eye out for more from this great author! Highly reccomend!

True Bastard is the 4th book in the Dark Sparrow series. Our favorite Chicago cop, Liam Harker, is checking out the financials on dear old dad to find anything to finally bring him down. Novice nun Sister Catriona Walsh is a genius with numbers and has been enlisted to help Liam. Liam fights so hard to respect Catriona’s vows but she doesn’t make it easy on him. These books just keep getting better. I love the world created and the action that flies off the page.

I really enjoyed reading the second book in this series! I felt like it was non-stop action the whole time!
The transitions are well written as the characters travel through time and space. I felt like I was right there with them experiencing it at the same time. I felt the characters’ relationships grow deeper and stronger as they try to save the world, too. The last couple of twists were unexpected but they also brought the whole story almost full circle with the first book.
Happily, I expect a third book or at least a prequel telling Matt’s story?!?

Dark Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel by India Kells is the fifth book in the series. This story follows Sam and Ellie. Both of them are going through a really rough time in life but can they help each other see the light? This book is about the depths of the human soul and how some handle it. There are some sensitive sections of sexual abuse and suicide. I believe the author handles them well and uses them to develop the characters. I liked the characters and it was interesting to finally get to more of Sam in this book. I look forward to reading the next book in this series and reading more from this author in the future.

Wild Bastard, the third novel in the Dark Sparrow series, is gripping! Kai Jones, the laid back one in the crazy Hawaiian shirts, gets a blast from the past when Isabel Osborne walks back into his life. Isabel is a force all her own with a past she would rather keep to herself. I simply loved this story. Kia and Isabel are like magnets, it only takes a flip to repel or attract. I am so happy I have another book to read in this series!

I really enjoyed this book and start to what looks to be a promising new series from ND Jackson. Bared. is a wonderful little romance with a sweet group of friends that will make you want to call your besties right now and book a spa day or a sleepover. I know I did! I found myself crying and laughing several times and I love when a book can really pull the emotions from you as you read which is something that ND Jackson is wonderful at in all of her novels. This book is definitely one that will keep you up late or away from the house chores so plan to block out some time as you get sucked into the world of Tru and the Green St Girls. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book!

Cold Bastard is the 2nd book in the Dark Sparrow series. India Kells has created a dark dangerous world of bastards. They are all so different yet all similar. Archer Blackwood doesn’t know about his father or brothers, but he’s about to. Zoe has a debt to repay, but Archer may be more than she bargained for. I love Zoe. It is not often the heroine is a curvy girl with fire inside.

Zoe Somersby is an intelligent woman with a talent for languages and cracking codes, but she has a wicked sense of humour and a love for superheroes too and this is what makes her a dark sparrow, her past life of cracking codes, even when it was the last thing she wanted to do. Archer Blackwood is a British billionaire who is a cold and ruthless businessman who runs a tight ship and has no time for idiots or time wasters, so when Zoe is asked to go undercover into his business to watch over and protect him, she has no idea what she is getting herself into.

As she listens to the task she is being set and why, she is even more determined to see it through, apart from having to be stuck in an office again, which is the current bane of her existence, but with her skills and experience, she knows she will do a blinding job.
When Monday morning arrives and Zoe is about to have the interview for her new position, she warms to the woman completing it immediately, however, when Archer Blackwood himself enters the room, Zoe is speechless, but whatever she manages to say gets her the job and the day swiftly gets underway. As the days pass and Zoe is settling into her routine, she cannot deny that Archer is a temptation she is trying her best to resist, but between the work and the long hours in her office translating and drafting, she is exhausted, but every day, something seems to happen to her to annoy her boss even more, he has to deal with some of the consequences.
It is on the third day when the office is attacked and Zoe completely ignores Archers commands and goes out to protect the others working in the office, this is when the attraction between them nearly ignites, until they are interrupted, but later when Archer check in on her at home, things get a little heated and this makes things even more complicated than before, especially when Zoe becomes embroiled in a plot she can’t escape from. Will Zoe be able to protect all those around her while still keeping her sanity and stay alive, or will the players in this twisted game play it better? This a suspenseful romance with twists and turns throughout which lead you down a path you will not want to step off of until you have reached the final destination of the end of the book.

Forbidden Mate has a good story, and we get to learn a lot more about the characters in this world. The characters of Tasha and Levi go through some interesting trials, and I appreciated the sections that were told from Levi’s point of view. They were illuminating into his thoughts and what is important to him. Evil Castus continues to plague Tasha, as well as the Master of the hellspawn, who inches closer to grabbing her into his clutches. I enjoyed seeing more with Radar, Levi’s friend and battlemate, and also Levi’s grandmother. Altogether, I found more variety and depth to this book than the first one. Keep it up, Robertson!

Another mystery for Madeline Dawkins to solve! Another mystery from Cynthia Hamilton that you must read.
Mysteries aren’t my go-to stories but Cynthia Hamilton is my go-to author when I want a great mystery.
Madeline has grown so much since her first adventure in book one. Reading about her in each story has been exciting and fun. And book 6 is just as good. Her husband Mike is the perfect match to her personality. I love the way they work together and complete each other.
This series needs to be read in order. Each book is an easy but exciting read. I look forward to the next adventure for Madeline and Mike.

This book had me hooked right from the start as does every book I have read by this author. I became so invested I read it in one sitting.This book can be read as a standalone but it is my suggestion that you read these books in order for a better backstory and understanding of Sam’s and his brothers history. This book does contain triggers for some people. Both Sam and Ellie are at the end of their rope, they can’t take anymore mentally or emotionally, they are ready to give up on life. A wrong number changes everything for these two. Sam recognizes the same darkness that’s pulling him under in Ellie’s voice and he feels a very strong need to save her. Ellie has been kidnapped by Sam’s psychopath father and Sam will do whatever it takes to save Ellie and Ellie feels the same way about saving Sam from his father especially after learning of the horrific things his father did to him. This story is full of action, drama, romance, family, healing and more. This is a must read, I highly recommend this book. I can’t wait to read the next one in this series.

Deva Landry is a woman with a dark past, she ran away from it and barely survived, but she had some help, in return for a favour which could be called upon any time and now the person who helped her has come calling, but it isn’t all as straight forward as it seems. Aleksei Voronov is a man covered in tattoos who is an MMA fighter with a dark past as well, but he is the one that Deva is sent to watch over, much to her annoyance.
Deva has found a place in a rehab centre for veterans as a physiotherapist and is finally feeling settled when out of the blue an old friend comes calling and asking to call in a favour, she wants her to use her skills as a physiotherapist and knowledge gained from her days as an MC Princess in Chicago to move back there to where it all started and try to observe and protect a man. As they discuss the mission and she meets the man in charge who explains the situation and as soon as she agrees to help, she is put up in an apartment in the north side of Chicago. Her neighbours are lovely, albeit an odd couple and very eccentric but whom endear themselves to Deva pretty quickly and a couple of days of settling in later, she heads over to the gym she will be working in as the new physiotherapist with a mission to keep the MMA fighters who train there fit and ready to fight. However, when she arrives there on her first day, she is surprised to see that the gym is filled with who normally wouldn’t be seen dead around each other, but when she eyeballs the one she is looking for, she is taken aback and that reaction is not normal for her in the slightest.
As Deva becomes part of the furniture at the Gym, she hasn’t officially run into Aleksei and she is worried that she won’t be able to fulfil her mission or her promise, that is until one night when he sneaks into the gym after hours asking for a treatment, but when things get heated between them while Deva is treating him, things get a little spicy, but once Deva cottons on to what is happening, she stops what she is doing and leaves, it is when she realises that it isn’t the kind of treatment he was after. The next day the gym owner is not himself and when she asks what is wrong, it turns out that Aleksei was injured in a fight and needs to get better for his next one in a few days and he asks Deva if she knows anyone who can help, thankfully she does and her mission truly starts when she ends up staying at his apartment to treat him.
This triggers more than a professional relationship when neither of them can deny the burning attraction between them and as they get to know each other more, things get complicated and Deva and Aleksei are thrown together on a mission to protect more than just each other. Will Deva be able to keep her past and present separate, or will it come back to haunt her again? This is a romantic suspense with more action than you can throw a stick at which will dig in its claws and keep you reading until the end.

Dark bastard is the fifth book in the Dark Sparrow series written by India Kells. I have read almost every book in this series and this author and she has me intrigued with this storyline/plot of this book/series. The characters are well written and I loved the way they played off each other with their quirkiness. This is a dark suspenseful with some action and romance thrown together.
Sam Sarkhan is a soldier, he knows the job is not finished; his father is still a threat to his bastard brothers and loved ones, but Sam’s strength has vanished. That is until he dialed a wrong number and connected with a soft female voice, as sad and lonely as he was. Just when Sam gets ready to approach Ellie to drag her back from the edge his worst nightmare resurfaced and in order to save Ellie, he has to face his father. Will Sam save Ellie or will she save herself? Can they defeat his father this time? Will Sam and Ellie open their hearts to love or will they walk away from each other?
You will have to read this story to find out…. Tracy @tracym

If I had a love story to be told I wish for it to be like this! After moving away from home. Living the life she dreamed, Charlie’s happy life came to a halt. But moving back home just might have been the best thing for her and Trent “Tank” (Charlie’s brother’s best friend). Second chances don’t happen over night. And this story of romance, passion, and willing to try again will keep you on the edge of your seat. I love when a romance has a happy ending. You dream for that kind of love!

Man! I never knew I could love sci-fi adventure stories. James Talisman has become one of my favorite authors. This second story picks up where the first left off. (It’s easier to follow a long if you have read the first book Journeys Through SpaceTime) Action packed into every page. Friendships that last a life time. A quest to find the treasure! And of course the images that James paints of the worlds is astounding. His imagination has taken mine to a whole new level! I can picture the scenes in my mind and I want to be there. Right in the middle of the action. I read it on my kindle but this will be a series I will buy a physical copy of so I can really get down into the story when I read it again! Highly recommend James Talisman!

Journeys through space time by James Talisman is an amazing story!! The author did an incredible job bringing multiple worlds and characters to life. An interesting plot that will keep you hooked until the very end. Sensitive readers beware there are scenes of sexual violence that my be triggering for some. Would highly recommend this book.

This was an enjoyable and engaging contemporary romance with a friends to lovers storyline but with a twist. I was hooked from start to finish by this heartwarming romance which had plenty of drama in the plot along with the romance to keep me happily turning the pages. Dahlia And Levi were best friends as children and even though Dahlia had a teenage crush on Levi they remained friends until they became enemies. Now after seven years the pair are reunited by a work project and although Dahlia is determined to keep it professional, Levi has other ideas. Levi never meant to hurt Dahlia, after all she’s the only woman he’s ever loved and now they have met up again he’s determined to win back her trust and become more than just friends. I was fully immersed in this story and found both main characters to be likeable and relatable and I enjoyed seeing how their relationship changed and developed through the years. Although book four in the ‘Love Grows Series’ it can be read as a standalone story, however I have enjoyed each novel in this series and recommend them all as great reads.

Forbidden Mare by CR Robertson is the second book in The Shadow Chronicles. This is an amazing follow up to the first book and one that I was so excited to start reading. The instant I started reading this book I was hooked. I was taken right back into this world and the characters. The way the author writes helped to create such a vivid picture and really made the book what it is. I was completely immersed in this story and what was happening. This is the kind of book that you will want to read in one sitting as you just can’t put it down. After the first book I was intrigued to see where the author would take the series and watching that develop over this book was fascinating. And I loved how you could still feel that strong connection between Levi and Tasha just as much as you could before. This is a brilliant series and I am already looking forward to what comes next.

Well. I said on my last review that Hector is my favorite but Kai is a VERY close second. Not only do I love his choice of attire 😉, but I love HIM as well. All these bastards sure are drool worthy. And Isabel did NOT disappoint! She’s a close second favorite to being my favorite main (other than Zoe)! This third book of the series didn’t disappoint and if you’re reading this review- read the damn series! SO GOOD YALL! On to the next! 💖
The Girl and the Gargoyle: YA Paranormal Romance by Pauline Gruber is the second book in the Girl and the Raven series. This is a series that needs to be read in order in my opinion as you are introduced to all the characters in book one. I thought this was a brilliant follow up to book one. The author really knew how to push the story further and to make it even more exciting than the first. It took no time of effort to fall back in with Lucy’s storyline. She is an easy character to connect with and become invested in. The relationship between the main characters is such an interesting one to watch develop. It is complex and has depth that really adds to the overall story. The story is quite fast paced. It feels like a lot happens throughout the book and but it never feels overwhelming. The author handles the story and the pace with ease and the whole book just has a great feel to it. This book is definitely the best so far and I cannot wait to read the next one.

I’m always LOVING the books India Kells publishes. (I’m saying that after only reading this series but I don’t care!) Its about time Liam gets his own book (I read a brothers name and I’m ready for his book! 😉) Catriona was a different leading lady but I enjoyed her all the same! These brothers get my heart racing and make a girl wish she could step into the Dark Sparrow world! Read the damn series y’all! It’s easily one of my favorites I’ve discovered this year! Onto the next! 💖
