Malayeka (Heartstrings Book 3) by Brooke May – Review by Mary Espinoza

Malayeka (Heartstrings Book 3)Malayeka by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Malayeka is the third book in the Heartstrings series by Brooke May and I have been enjoying this fun and original paranormal series, each book brings more fun, adventure, and romance and to me each one keeps building a bigger picture of the ‘Cupid’ world. Brooke May has crafted a wonderful, fun series, but these books do show us that things don’t always go according to plan. In this book, we accompany Malayeka as she seeks to ensure her mission doesn’t end up in a complete disaster, unfortunately this is something she is all too familiar with. Is she able to right the wrongs, work her cupid magic, and find a way to get a little of redemption along the way? All I can say is pick a copy of this book and find out the answers yourself!

Aiko (The Heartstrings Series Book 1) by Brooke May – Review by Mary Espinoza

Aiko (Heartstrings #1)Aiko by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Aiko by Brooke May a sweet and salty read by Brooke May, and it was not what I was expecting, but it ended up being such a great surprise. I don’t like to do things the traditional way and decided to read this book after I had already read the fourth book of the series. I found that I adored Aiko, even during her most annoying times…lol! I found that I warmed up to her, I mean everyone has their run of bad luck, hers just seemed to be worse than others. This was a great story and one that I feel will hook you from the first page and not it won’t let you put it down until the last page. So, if you do decide to pick it up, make sure you have time to fully enjoy it!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the fourth book in the series and if you’re like me and didn’t read the previous books…you will be able to understand without the backstories. This is the first one that I have read in this series, and I found it to be such a cute, fast read and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I was really pulled into the idea of Cupid’s helpers and the whole scheme of romance idea that Cupid brings. This story has a good blend of characters that are quick witted, quick tempered, and have truly unique personalities. This book was a really fast read for me as I couldn’t put it down because I needed to know what was going to happen next. I suggest this book if you are looking to be able to sink into your couch, get away from reality for a while, pick this book up and give it a try! I don’t think you will be one bit disappointed!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have loved this series from the moment I started reading and I think this one has to be my favourite so far. Seraphina is a fantastic character. I connected with her so much more than I expected I would and I loved to see how she developed throughout the book. And Seth was just the perfect pairing with Seraphina. They were brilliant together and highly entertaining.
This author really knows how to create fantastic stories. Everything I read by her I thoroughly enjoy and I love that they are all so different. This book was brilliant to read and I am excited to see what else this series has to offer.

This 4th book in the series is as fun and quirky as the rest and will have you laughing out loud and turning page after page with joy as you follow along with Seraphina and all her antics as she tries to help Seth a Cocky, full of himself Hockey player. Seraphina definitely has more Sass than the rest and I absolutely loved that about her! With this assignment she needed that for sure! I truly love this author and her creativity. I am a fan and always will be.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Seraphina is the 4th book in the Heartstrings series by Brooke May. Although this is part of a series this is the first book I have read by this author and was able to read as a standalone. Seraphina is a cupid, sent by the actual Cupid to take on cases on earth and help two people find their love. When she is tasked with helping hockey player Seth, she finds herself facing a familiar challenge. She has attempted to help Seth twice before without success, but she is determined to get it right this time. She just needs to take the right approach. I liked this book; it was a fun premise and easy to read. I felt it could have been longer as it seemed that the characters personality switched really fast, but I was a fun romance story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the fourth book in the series and you don’t have to read the other books before this one to understand what is going on. This is the first one that I have read in this series and it was such a cute quick read for me that I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I really like the idea of Cupid’s helpers and the whole romanticized idea that Cupid brings. This story has amazing characters that are quick witted, have a bit of a temper, and have growth for what is needed in this book. This book is realistic in the way that bot everything happens properly the first time and it might take a couple tries to get it right. I didn’t how much I would like that when it isn’t instant. This book was a really quick read for me as I couldn’t put it down because I needed to know what happened next. I highly suggest thus book if you are looking to just sink into a book and escape for a few hours. You won’t be disappointed in this choice.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I enjoy her writing skills that make her stories come to life on every page. Her characters are written with a lot of spunk and heart. This book is no different. This is a well written story about Seraphina and a hockey player that she has failed a couple of times in the past. She is determined not to fail him a third time. This is a great romance story that is fast paced and hard to put down. A story where the author used details to make the story realistic which I had no problems picturing myself in this story. The characters are relatable and add so much to the story. They have great growth and chemistry throughout. They pull you into their story with ease and keep you there until the end. I really enjoyed this book and I think you will as well. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

Seraphina is the fourth book in the Heartstrings series by Brooke May. Even though this is the fourth book in the series, you don’t have to have read the first three books in order to enjoy this one. Each book in the series focuses on one of ‘Cupid’s’ chosen ones- we follow as a member of his team helps humans find love. But, in saying that, each book is a great read in its own right, and reading the entire series helps to build a better understanding and appreciation of the stories.
We have met Seraphina in the previous books, and to be quite honest from those ‘interactions’, I really wasn’t sure I was going to ‘like’ her enough to enjoy this story or be able to ‘invest’ in it. But I need not have worried as Ms. May ensured that she won me over- as did Seth and Marron- Seraphina’s assignment.
I love how Ms. May has crafted such wonderfully quirky characters who each have their own unique personalities, quirks, and flaws. Seraphina was so much more than she first appears- which made this story all the more fun to follow.
This is a fairly light-hearted and fun paranormal romance with cupids, drama, chemistry, connection, redemption, and emotion. Will Seraphina succeed in finding a love match for a scandal riddled hockey player? You really should read all the engrossing developments for yourself.
Looking forward to Book #5!

Thank you, Brooke May!

Seraphina has had it with her task of cupid and her target Seth Maxwell. He is a tabloid nightmare and more difficult to match then she thought possible. Seraphina has a plan though to make the perfect match, will Seth find his happily ever after or will Seraphina fail at the match?

Fun read. I liked that Seraphina was different then than what you would expect from Cupid. Seth is an entertaining bad boy who is not happy with the changes he has to make. Great read for the holidays.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’m very familiar with this author, so I didn’t hesitate to give this book a shot. Seraphina is a sweet story. A bad boy finding his way again. With some romance thrown in.
How would you feel if Cupid/a Cupid helper ended up on your doorstep?
Well that’s exactly what happens in this story.
Seraphina ends up on the doorstep of the one man she’s tried to help twice and failed.
Is the 3rd time the charm?
Seth is a hockey bad boy. He’s constantly receiving bad publicity. He only cares about himself. He is a selfish teammate. Yet these are all qualities he’s developed over the years. He was never this guy when his grandmother was alive.
Can he be reformed?
Mallen is one of the many who helps keep Greater Chances up and running. For kids that don’t have the same advantages due to their families social/financial standing in society. So one day when a hot shot hockey player comes in from the local pro-team she has every reason to be skeptical. What is he getting out of this?
It wasn’t until Cupid’s Helper revealed herself that she learned the true purpose of what’s in play.
However, is that enough?
Can the character’s in play keep their ego in check for the greater good of the story?
You will just have to read and find out!

Seraphina (Heartstrings Series) by Brooke May – Review by Jennifer Ramos
I’ve read a few of Brooke May’s previous books and really enjoyed them. This series did not disappoint! It was such a cute and funny story. Quick and enjoyable read! Another of Cupid’s helper is Seraphina, quick to anger and thrown into quite a challenge for her next assignment. A popular hockey play for all the wrong reasons. Seth does a much better job at finding trouble rather than finding love. Quite a comical journey to getting to where he is at to where he needs to be.

I’ve read a few of Brooke May’s previous books and really enjoyed them. This series did not disappoint! It was such a cute and funny story. Quick and enjoyable read! Definitely to read books in order to make better sense of tidbits along the way. Another one of Cupid’s helpers, Malayeka, has been helping with matching her humans with such an impact that its effects are still felt two centuries in a small village dealing amongst feuding families. Reminds some of the essence behind a pair of a famous pair of star crossed lovers. In the midst of this feuding, there is a pair of strong heartstrings that are strongly connected but is Malayeka up to the challenge to bring them together?

With this challenge that Faida faces, she must find a way to make sure Robert can find his love match before it’s too late. I highly suggest reading this series in order as tidbits here and there make more sense as you progress along with each book.

She has had the unfortunate reputation of getting overexcited and overly helpful when it comes to matching her humans and sometimes has ended up in disastrous scenarios.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It’s been a while since I have enjoyed the goings on of the Brookes Cupid’s and was excited when I saw this new book out. These Cupids have all the right intensions but not everything goes to plan. You will fall in love with them and their quirky ways.
Seraphina is the fourth book in the wonderful romantic comedy The Heartstrings Series. The books in this series are funny, fun, original and refreshing.
This story that drew me in from the start and I found myself getting lost in the story. It’s easy to get lost in the story and you can’t help but fall in love with this quirky cupid. Laughing out loud with her antics as she tries to right her wrongs.
Seraphina is not like the other cupids; she is fiery and sassy and is determined to help this hockey superstar who is full of himself find love. If it means she has to knock him over the head with whatever she has to get him off his high and mighty pedestal she will.
Seth thinks he is all that but all that has gotten him in trouble on more than one occasion, not that he cares. Let the mayhem begin!
Grab a drink and settle in for an entertaining afternoon read.

I absolutely adore the Cupid series. Seraphina had me chuckling. She’s a little grumpy because she’s stuck with Josh again. She’s tried twice to match him to no avail. Maybe the third time will be the charm. I found this story quite entertaining. You felt like you were right there, whether it was with Seraphina, Seth, or Marron. It’s humorous and serious at the same time. As a society, there is a fascination with celebrities. We want to see and imagine what it’s like to have what they have. I enjoyed this story because it fed that fascination. Seraphina brings together two people with their own sets of issues and it somehow all worked out fine after some guided adventures. It can be read as a standalone. I recommend the whole series. They are all wonderful.

Cupids are thought to be jovial creatures, sent to help humans find their perfect love match.

Seraphina is far from the jovial type. Quick to find her temper rather than the serenity her sisters possess, she’s about to be given the test of her eternal life.

Seth Maxwell is a hockey superstar. The best in the world. From the Olympics to the league he plays on, he’s become a household name. But not in a good way. Known for not being a team player and ending up in one scandal after another with starlets, Seth needs a massive makeover.

And we aren’t talking about his looks.

Unfortunately for Seraphina, this isn’t her first encounter with the hockey player. Not that he would remember any of it.

They say the third time is the charm and Seraphina is determined now more than ever before to prove she has what it takes to help a man she’s failed in the past.

Let’s just hope Seth is willing to get off that pedestal he’s placed himself on to see what a good thing Seraphina is helping guide him to.

Forget the mythical bow and arrow, Seraphina is about to pull out all the stops to make Seth’s love connection stick.

After reading the Code of Honor Books by this author I couldn’t wait to jump into another series by her 🥰. I just had to read these. I love reading supernatural books, especially shifters’ stories. This might be the first time reading one where the main shifter was a mountain lion, and I quite enjoyed it. Just like the other Brooke May wrote, this one kept me engaged til the very end. It was well written with a unique take on the mating bond. I couldn’t help loving the mated pair Lane and Cheyenne. Even though they both have personal stuff to get over, I think the fates got it right putting those two together. I can’t wait to read the next book of this series to escape to this amazing world again 🥰

It was sooo goood but I wouldn’t expect anything less from this brilliant author. I was so happy to go back into this shifter realm, even if it was just for a short while. But Omg even though I loved the first one, Trigger and Laramie are my favorite ones so far. This book has literally everything you’d want in a paranormal read but so much more! The characters the author build will have you loving and disliking them (Cough cough enter said characters name here😂) and With a twist that even i didn’t see coming 🤫.

This fantastic read is the next step in this wonderful series and it features around Laramie and Trigger. While the mating call hits them and draws them together its the underhanded actions of Leonard who I just knew was a total snake in the grass right from the start, that kept me completely intrigued. I was NOT so patiently waiting for Trigger to work out Leonards true intentions and now I can’t wait for more of the story. I simply have to know what’s next! This amazing and some what crazy family and town have weaved into my heart for sure.

Laramie and Trigger meet when Trigger and his stepdad come into town. They both feel the mating call and for Trigger while he knows what it is he doesn’t know all the details as he wasn’t raised in a pack.

Can these 2 figure it out before the Mating Haze kicks in?
