Dragons by Ty Drago – Review by Bobbi Wagner

DragonsDragons by Ty Drago
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this science space book. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed his writing skills and his attention to details that gave the story a realistic feel. The characters are connectable and made the story fun and entertaining to read. This is a story about Andy. He has been hiding his true self from everyone. But now that he has been kidnapped and pushed to limits that he never thought he could go. From here the story takes on betrayal, lies and you just never know if things are as they appear. This is a great adventure story that would be great for any young adult and anyone who likes space. I enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.

The DonThe Don by Hazel Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this paranormal story. This is a newer author for me and I look forward to reading the next book in this series. This is a well written story where good and evil seem to collide. The characters are relatable and bring the story to life. The twists and turns not only heat up the pages but also left me questioning what would happen next. Vanessa has the ability to bring out the good in people. She has problems but they are about to get a little worse. Throughout the story she is faced with three men, all different. She is about to have three more problems. The story is full of action and hot, steamy men. I enjoyed the growth throughout the story as well as being pulled into the story. This is a great story and I highly recommend it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third book in this series which is just as great as the previous two books. I highly suggest reading the previous two to help your enjoyment of this series. This is a paranormal story where Lady Isra is back in another story. She is being held responsible for Kane’s disappearance and now Ronald wants revenge. Then you have Astrid who may not be who Isra thinks he is and has a secret. As the past and present collide, are things really as they seem? This story is fast paced and full of action. The characters are strong and made the story fun and entertaining to read. There is alot going on with this story and the characters may or may not be as they seem. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens to Lady Isra. It is worth the pick up for sure.

This is the third book in this series which I enjoyed from beginning to end. If you haven’t read the previous two books, I highly suggest doing so to help you enjoy the most from this series. This is a well written story about friendship and the value of that friendship. The characters took me on a journey of looking for answers and realizing that you may not like what you find. As the story comes to full circle they are faced with things that are threatening and having to defend those they love. This was a really great story and my favorite yet in this series. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next for Cam.

The House that Adelia Built AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Bobbi Wagner

This is  my first audible story by this author but I will say that it is my favorite.   I enjoyed this narrator and the story she told.  With this story it is like listening to two different stories in one.  I think the narrator did a good job of making the two stories separate but yet one and not confusing.  There are a few characters in this story that are lovable and connectable.  This story revolves around a lighthouse. The first couple moved there after they were married back in 1800. After a while he started changing and she was confused on why.  Then it brings us to the current day where you have Hope who is a woman who is a little lost and has low self esteem. She is having nightmares at night and is not sure what they mean. When she starts investigating why she is having these dreams, what will she uncover? There is something about the lighthouse that has drawn her to it.   She also meets a man who they spend quite a bit of time together. What will happen when they start developing feelings for each other? I enjoyed listening to  both stories about the past and the present.  I really enjoyed listening to this and I highly recommend it.

This is not my first audio by this author but it is one of my favorites by her.  I enjoyed the narrator’s tone of voice and what it brought to the story.  The narrator brought the characters to life using different tones.  This is a story that brings the romance and action into one well rounded story. The characters bring the story to life with each page.  This is a story about two people who have lives that are not going as well as they expected until a once chance meeting in a coffee shop.   As danger merges and the past comes to the present, the action really picks up.   I highly recommend this audio and this author.

Fake Fiancé (A Second Chance Office Romance) AUDIO BOOK by Amy McKinley – Review by Bobbi Wagner

I enjoyed this audiobook.  The author and narrator made this fun to listen to.  This is a romance story that I had no problems listening to as it was brought to life.   The narrator’s voice and the changes in tone just added to the story.  Adeline has her dream job all set up in Italy, the city of love. Once she gets there, the city of love isn’t what she expected. She now finds herself playing the role of fiance to her boss, Stone. Now they are faced with keeping their relationship business or crossing a professional line. Will they cross that line and give in to the attraction?  Great story and I highly recommend this audiobook.  It is worth the pick up.
