The Crown of Stones Trilogy Box Set (The Crown of Stones Series) by C. L. Schneider – Review by Whisper Hymer

The Crown of Stones Complete TrilogyThe Crown of Stones Complete Trilogy by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Magic Price by C.L. Schneider is the first book in The Crown of Stones trilogy. It follows Ian Troy, a Shinree solider known for ending a decades-long war with the Crown of Stones. His skills in magic and battle are both feared and needed. This lone wolf suddenly finds himself back in the middle of battle 10 years later with returning and new enemies.

The second book, Magic Scars, starts two and half years after the ending of the first book. We pick up with Ian Troy once more as he is freed from the terrible prison in Darkthorne. Having been under a drug which takes memory, self, and will away – Ian struggles to find his new self in the fray. Friends are scattered, enemies are everywhere, and Ian is now at the center of a rebellion.

These books are filled with creative world-building and characters that have depth. This series is a good pick for fans of dark fantasy but definitely needs to be read in order.

Forbiddenly Yours (Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm – Review by Jessica Stone

So this is the second book in the Titans of Chicago series by Anise Storm and like the first book in the series this one did not disappoint! While it think with any series it is important for world and character building to read the previous books in the series, I believe that you could read this as a standalone if you’d like. Im sure by the end of this book you’d be going back to read the first anyways.

This book is about Nicole, whose father and brother are titans. And our MMC is Callum, a titan through and through.
Nicole born in raised in a family with a imagine to uphold, she’s the nice girl, who does everything right and before she goes to college due to some cajoling from her mother, she takes a trip to Costa Rica with some friends and takes a chance one evening, letting go and just being herself and that’s where she meets callum.

Callum is a titan and a college professor, who has a chance meeting with Nicole one evening where he invites her back to his villa to party, one thing leads to another and Nicole and Callum hit it off with no expectation and thinking after that night they would never see each other again. The last thing Callum expected was to see the girl from the mind blowing one night stand as a student in the lit class he teaches.

The chemistry between these two is FIRE, red hot, grab a glass of water, fan my face worthy. I couldn’t ask for a better set of main characters, while I wasn’t the biggest fan of Callum at first, that changed the more I read and got to know the character and his story.

I’m a pretty big fan of a will they/will they not, the angst and I can never get enough of a jealous man who’s fighting his attraction but ends up giving in. So this basically fed all of my book needs. I am pretty excited to see what this author puts out next as far as the titans books go, I’ve been more than satisfied with books one and two so I’m oh so impatiently waiting for book 3.

Such a fun and enjoyable read! Dark Is The Wood is a perfect blend of the fairy tales that are so nostalgic to us, mixed with enough uniqueness to make them new again. It makes it all the more cozy and comforting to read! Gillian is strong, brave, and believable as a character. Ward’s writing style and character development hits the mark without feeling overwhelming and just makes you want to know more. I will definitely be looking for her next book in this wonderful series Treacherous Is The Tower!

Back in the Ring (The Predator Series) by Brooke May – Review by Mary Espinoza

Back in the Ring (The Predator #4)Back in the Ring by Brooke May

Back in the Ring by Brooke May is an awesome feel-good story! Brooke May never disappoints with any of her books! So, we are introduced to the main character named Bijou and we find out that she has lost Elijah who was her everything, and unfortunately leaves her alone with their daughter, Claire. Bijou has enough on her plate and Claire, who is going through a rough stage, isn’t making it easy for her mom. Bijou and Elijah had a dream…and now Bijou doesn’t know if she can keep maintaining that dream with a defiant child on her hands. Of course, like life usually does, Bijou is thrown a curveball when Noah unexpectedly turns up in her life. Bijou has enough to deal with in her life, and a sexy man like Noah isn’t helping her! Little does Bijou know that Noah is her saving grace in more than one aspect, will Bijou be able to keep her cool around Noah and stay friends only, or Bijou give into her body’s wants? This is the fourth book in The Predator series, and I can only imagine how all of the other books are, I am definitely going to go back and read all of the books before this one. Brooke, I love your books…keep them coming! Hopefully, y’all will pick up a copy and read for yourself…you can either be like me and read books out of order or read the series in order…. either way, I don’t think you will be one bit disappointed!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Every book in this series just hits the spot. As with the rest of this series, I love the mixture of historical fiction, detective mystery, and more directed at YA. The suspense, the characters, the crime aspects all make for a thrilling read every time. I really didn’t know what was going to happen and the pacing just keeps moving so this felt like a quick read. Highly recommend picking up all the books in this series, but even just this one for the fun of it all.

Oh my gosh ! Just looking at Fiend in the cover I just want to hug him and tell him it’s all going to work out 🙈🤗 I know these biker boys have a reputation but they have good hearts , soft hearts , sone just hide it well ….

Fiend ( Jett) had a tough childhood and he ran from home because he didn’t want to be like his dad , fortunately for him , Lucifer , MC of the Merciless Few and his “ old lady “ came across him and took him under their wing , not ideal for mist but I love me a biker family 😉 he worked hard to earn his patch but yet he always feels like the black sheep , the outcast 😢🤷‍♀️

Good grief Jett and poppy had me in an emotional mess ! I was in a state and I very nearly stopped reading but I I also couldn’t do that because I had to see them get the HEA they deserve and I had to finish their story I mean I can’t just walk away !?

I think I overlooked the danger and suspense because of a broken heart but will I do it all again ? Oh hell yes ! I’ll put myself through it all again for my Jett , Poppy and their people 🥰

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I just loved this cover and I just wanted to climb into and live the story more so after devouring each page 🥰📚

Claire has to head back home, Pismo Beach , her mum has passed away and she becomes an instant mom to her younger sister Alexis , quite the blow , loosing her mom and the responsibility of raising her sister .,,,

Claire wants to be in New York , that is where her life is after all but that means uprooting her sister which will be met with resistance and she has to sell her mom’s house and sort through her things and that is already very hard and my heart breaks for I know how broken I was when I had to pack my mum’s things …..

David Clark , orthodontist and divorcee , nervous of woman after his wife left him and he also happens to be Alexi’s doctor so when Claire walks into his rooms with Alexi I think my heart beat faster than his did 🥰🤣🥴

David and Claire really hit it off but she’s leaving soon and grieving but you know with love there’s never a right time so they enjoy each others company but both have baggage they have to work through and realise they worthy of happiness , together …..

I cheered hard but I cried harder and this definitely has Hallmark movie potential 🥰

Despite her wins demons that haunt her she has to get to the bottom of everything and protect innocents that are being prayed upon …. Predators are vindictive , cruel , sly and vindictive but she’s not giving up the fight so easily no matter the threat ….

Jessica is fiercely protective and she finds herself in danger of not only her life but loosing her family , marriage and her job but again she’s determined to expose the “ good pastor” , he’s pure evil if you ask me !

All I can say is be prepared for the unexpected 🥴

I love Bella the main character and felt some of the things she got into. Not sure I have a favorite Male character, but it was fun reading how she gets through the dating game.

This young adult fantasy is a really great story. The description of the book from the author is “Red Riding Hood & Beauty and the Beast meet Dragons in this fast-paced fantasy about a young woman caught up in a world steeped in danger and all the power and fiery heat of dragons.”
This book is meant for more mature teens I have a 17 year old and I would not be opposed to her reading this book. The character growth from chapter one is steady and just reading and watching them develop their strengths and overcoming the obstacles that are thrown their way is awesome. I really enjoyed this book.

What a wonderful book for boys!! You see all the “girl power” books out there about self esteem and being strong and overcoming, but, never have I have seen one for boys. This book is wonderfully illustrated and even references the Bible on many pages. I love how at the end there are even scriptures and more references to find in the Bible. An absolute joy to read this book.

Chess has her heart guarded and does not want to waste her time on players, both on and off the field. Shes attracted to Finn, but she’s wary when she realizes he’s entertaining the wrong type of women. This was a great slow burn, while Finn works to prove he’s not the type of guy she assumes he is. He’s a nerd and a softy under his tough exterior, and he’s got his eyes set on winning Chess over. This was a great read for the sports romance fans. Love the slow burn, the effort Finn puts in, Chess as a strong FMC. I’ll definitely read more from this author.

Murder in prospect is the latest novel in the Eve Sawyer Mysteries. I must admit I haven’t read all of them. But the few I’ve read has been amazing. I do like that although it is a series they can be read independently and you can follow along just fine.

The cover is beautifully done and fits the story. The author does a wonderful job telling a story that sucks you in and paints a picture. It’s full of twist and turns. She keeps you reading. I highly recommend checking out her other books.

Hooked: The Merciless Few is the second book in The Merciless Few Series and is a MC Romance that will have you turning the pages till the end. I highly recommend reading the first book in this series if you haven’t already as it gives you a better understanding of what has been going on and meet characters which overlap to the next story. This is a fairly new author to me but I like where this series is going so far My emotions were all over the place with this story and at one point I had tears running down my face. My heart broke for Fiend aka Jett. This is Jett and Poppy’s story. Fiend holds many secrets and has many struggles which started at a young age. One day you mean everything to your family and then a total disappointment. Fiend leaves his family behind to start a new life with his MC family. He now is in a downward spiral can she help save him before it’s to late? Poppy wants to be his everything but can she get him to see that? I don’t want to give to much away. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author and this series.

Forever to Fall (Buckeye Falls Book 5)Forever to Fall by Libby Kay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Forever to Fall is the fifth instalment of Libby Kay’s Buckeye Falls series, and it follows childhood friends Beckett and Mallory, who reunite after the tragic loss of Beckett’s grandfather. I loved the previous book so I was really excited to read this one. The prologue was adorable, so well written and gripping. Beckett and Mallory are clearly soulmates, as are Beckett’s grandparents whose love story was beautiful. I loved seeing Alice and James again, and how the childhood best friends to lovers/will they won’t they was executed. It was hard to read the part where Beckett goes out with Cece’s friend, despite understanding why he wanted to keep his feelings from Evan. I also think it would’ve hit harder if Cece’s friend was a pleasure to be around and we could see how he still preferred to be with Mallory. But either way, it’s clear they are the only person for each other. My favourite character was Mallory. I recommend this book because it is a beautiful friends to lovers story. ‘Trying—six little letters strung together for maximum impact.’

Anise Storm does it again! I love this series and cannot wait to finish the rest. This one has a professor/student relationship trope and is very steamy. After having a one-night stand while on vacation, Nicole’s whole world is turned on its axis after realizing that this man is her new English professor. We witness many ups and downs between them and a mind blowing plot twist that will shake you to your core. My only reason for not giving this story five stars is the lack of character development. I could not completely connect to them, their situation, and the storyline in this regard, and their conversations just do not seem realistic.

Alchemy of Glass is a slow burn into the depths of Gaelan’s immortality and his urge to end the “curse” after over half a millennium of life. Dual timelines of his past that changed his chromosomes, unbeknownst to him, until he meets Anne-in present time, a Genealogist.

Gaelan creates a “bauble” aka Ruperts Drop that is imbued with magic to transport the holder into the future. The bauble is best used within the caves the monks created centuries ago, a room of mirrors set to the Fibonacci sequence.

The future is bleak, it is up to Anne to make the correct decision to save the fate of humanity after a multibillionaire seeks her help to heal his ailing child with stolen tissue from the ” Miracle Man”- Gaelan!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Where does one start with this series? It was funny. It was maddening. It was heartbreaking. It was warm and wonderful. It was steamy and spicy!!

Let’s set the scene. Bella found out that her husband is cheating on her with someone that looks extremely similar to her but has more money. So, Bella dumps him, divorces him, and is determined to get back all the confidence that the cheater stripped from her over the years they were together. Some of Bella’s confidence is earned back by dressing how she likes, exercising the way she wants and remembering who she was. Bella struggles with her bedroom confidence. She doesn’t know how she will get this one back.

A local barkeep and player takes a shine to Bella. He convinces her to let him “coach her” through a few dates and possibly more. Bella has also signed up for a dating site. As Bella dates different men, she gains her confidence back and even has a few new experiences along the way. When Bella meets the guy she can’t get out of her head, she discovers that he is already in a relationship. As Bella continues her self-discovery journey, she and Mr. Almost Perfect manage to orbit in each other’s circles and lives. Each feeling a growing connection but since he is in a relationship, Bella won’t be the one to interfere with it.

Mr. Smooth helps Bella learn to enjoy smeggytimes again. Mr. Kinky shows Bella that she can experience new things and like them. Mr. Heartless plays on all Bella’s insecurities and does horrible things. Mr. Rockstar is a brief interlude of fun. And, we can’t forget, Mr. Almost Perfect that maybe turns out to be exactly what Bella has needed. There are several more men that play a role in Bella’s journey but to find out about them you will have to read the series.

Each different story is short and fun (well, mostly fun). Bella and her female friends are a riot! This series is worth every minute you spend reading it. Jump in and enjoy!
