My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this thriller. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning by the characters. They made the story feel realistic and gave life to the story. This is an engaging, fast paced story that I had a hard time putting down. This is a well written story that the author’s attention to details made the twists and turns exciting and the feeling of wanting to know what will happen next. Alicia thinks she has the perfect marriage until she finds some emails between her husband and another woman that he never sent. Who is she and why did he never send them? Someone knows the truth but sometimes things come at a cost. This had me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. This is a great thriller that I would highly recommend.

I enjoyed this book. This is a newer author for me and I look forward to reading more from him in the future. This is a well written book about a small town that is full of secrets and just plain dangerous. The characters are relatable and just brought the story to life on each page.

Life brings them all something different until one summer where everything collides. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning.

I enjoyed this book. This is the fourth book in this series and I highly suggest reading the previous three books to help your enrichment of the series and the characters.

Luca and Lexi are back in another fast paced page turner. Lexi’s past has come to her present life and it came crashing. The past is looking for revenge and justice. Will Luca be able to protect them? What will happen when she comes face to face with her past? These characters are strong and just make the story for me.

I enjoyed this sweet romance story. This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I have enjoyed every book I have read by her. One of the things I enjoy most is her ability to pull me into the story from the beginning and her attention to details give a realistic feel. This book is no different. This is a well written short story that I read in one day. It is a story about Hannah who was dumped a couple of days after Valentines Day. It is a day that holds nothing but bad memories for her until Kyle walks into her life. Will he change her feelings about this day? What does fate have in store for them? I enjoyed watching the characters grow throughout the story. They made the story come to life on each page and just made the story for me. I highly recommend this book and this author.

I enjoyed this WWII romance story.  This is my first audible by this author and narrator.  I enjoyed the tone of voice and how it would change a little with each character.  I found this to be easy to listen to which helped with my enjoyment.  This is a story about Teddy and Jenny.  When Teddy steps into the shop that Jenny works at, her life changes from that moment.  But war could be the end of a relationship before it really starts.  This was a sweet story and I truly enjoyed listening to it.  I highly recommend this audio.

I enjoyed this young adult adventure story. This is a great story for any young adult who is looking for adventure and they will find it in this book. This is the second book in this series which I highly suggest reading the first book before this one to help get to know the characters better but can be read as a stand alone. This is a well developed story that took me on an entertaining, fun adventure and fantasy. The characters bring the story to life and make it engaging. I enjoyed how they were not only paranormal but also creatures. This is a fast paced story that pulls you into a magical world of friends and enemies. I am happy I picked up this book and I think you will too. I highly recommend this book.

I enjoyed this romance story. It is the second book in this series which I enjoyed just as much and highly suggest reading the first book as well. This is a well developed story that has characters that bring life to the story. I had no problems relating to them and they made the story fun and entertaining to read.

They find themselves on a beautiful adventure of the new publication. They each have a past that they need healing of. Can they find the healing they need in themselves? What will fate have in store for them? I enjoyed them and what they brought to the story.

I enjoyed this historical romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites yet so far. This is the fifth book in this series but can be read as a standalone but I highly suggest reading the previous books as they are that great.

This is the second audio I have listened to in this series.  I highly suggest listening to the first book to help you enjoy this series.  I was pulled into the story by this narrator’s voice and enjoyed being engaged to the end.  It was easy to listen to and made me want to keep listening.  The voice is easy and fun and truly adds to the story.  This is a story full of action and revenge.  What happens next with this MC you don’t want to miss.  She only has a small amount of time to get her revenge, will fate allow her vengeance?  I highly recommend this audio, I loved it and so will you.

This is a dark romance box set that I enjoyed. This is a collection of three stories about Lexi and her journey from dark to light. Each book is well written, engaging and page turners. Lexi is a character that is connectable but also she brought the stories to life for me. The story was an emotional roller coaster but that just added to the stories. Lucca is everything she thinks she needs and wants but is he really that good for her? I highly recommend this box set. I am glad I picked it up and so will anyone who enjoys dark romance stories.

Cecily feels that she has it all, a great job, a best friend and a boyfriend. What will happen when her best friend starts ditching her? She has never had a relationship like the one she has with Andrew, until now. What will happen to her when her world comes crashing down with one photograph? I enjoyed watching her growth and felt bad for her when life challenges start changing her life. This is a great story that I highly recommend. I am glad I picked up this book and so will you.
