My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the series as well as the first book that I have read by this author, and I was not disappointed. I have not read a book like this one before and was in new territory as I was not expecting certain aspects that happened in the book. The storyline was one that had me on the edge of the bed as I was reading. There were lots of steamy scenes between the main characters that were expertly written. I cannot wait to read the next books in the series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have not read a book by this author until now and this one had me hooked. I am not one that gravitates towards women historical fiction novels often, but I am glad that I did! This book was expertly written and had me feeling as though I was going through everything that Margaret Rose was experiencing. I was immediately transported back in time to the 1940’s learning what people went through in that time in the views of a child’s eye. I fully believe that everyone needs to read this story as it had a big impact on me and told a wonderful story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was one that I found myself not able to put down! The writing was so great I felt as though I was on the journey with Morgan and Vandana and not just a reader. The characters chemistry is so wonderful, I cannot even put it into words. Their story is unconventional and that is what makes it worthwhile. I have never read a romance story that was based on a yacht designer and a PR person but this one is WONDERFUL! I cannot wait to read more of their story and continue reading this story as well as others by this author!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow this is just as good as the first book, Evil Sushi! The second book encompasses the whole crew, or what is left of the crew, looking for Evil Sushi and Sashimi. All across, people living in the fishermen towns are panicking, leaving their towns and flooding the mainland’s. This is making people panic about being the next ones to fall prey to the mutated ones. Aileen is reeling from the loss of her brother while Sally and Rods relationship change in ways that I could not even begin to think would happen. I have never read a book like this let alone it be a part of a series where it did not fit the bill for one category, which makes it great for all kinds of readers! I cannot wait for the third book to see how it all ends!!

When I did not think any one of these books would possibly be any better than the other one, I was FLOORED that this one was better! This was a fast-paced book from the first page to the very end.

Firstly, I need to say that this book was just as good if not better than the second book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was a book that I enjoyed a great deal as it was in the view of the demon, but he is not an ordinary demon. He is one of seven and they are all super powerful. He is to tempt the people with gluttony. I liked when it showed that he was tempting people and it also went into detail about their guardian angels working to not let them be tempted by him. He looks for people who have already been touched or tempted by the other of the seven deadly sins as this makes his job of tempting people that much easier. This was a book that surprised me and had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what I would read next and see where this went. I cannot wait to read the other books in this series!

Normally this is not the type of book that I would read as I am not big into Cosplay, but this book blew me away! This book is a slow burning book that kept me on my seat wanting to read more.
