This is definitely a nice change. Women having strength, courage and bravery. Working beside the men, as equals. I love this series!!! Her story is believable and her characters are amazing. I will not give you any spoilers! As I have grand respect for this author and her sisters. It is just a story you will have to read, as I have. All the feels are there, laughter, crying and anger are just a few I had experienced. Well worth the read for sure. I am so ready for the next one in this series. Job well done Chelsi Arnold!

I took a ride on this emotional Rollercoaster. I love her characters. The more I read the more information I needed, and got. Now I’m looking forward to dive into the next book.

☆☆☆☆
This is a suspenseful murder mystery. Set back in time.

Lexie Conyngham has written what I consider to be a historical suspense story. The names were old, with a touch of imagination. Which makes them unique. So I know I did not pronounce them correctly. The book was filled with suspense and kept me reading. Lexie Conyngham did a great job setting her book up. She gave plenty of background. That made you feel as though you could see the village as you read the book. I love the characters. Such a great story. So I don’t give any spoilers, I will not tell you about who is who, in this story. You just have to read it. Well done Lexie Conyngham! I will be checking out your other stories as well as keeping up with this series.

This is a complete suspenseful thriller. No spoilers here.

The characters are just as intense as their story. This has been one of those books you hate to put down. Just enough action to keep you searching for the killer yourself. You must read the series in order. Not for those under 18 or with a weak heart.

This is a full length novel about that unexpected romance.

Jessie Martinez has worked her way into the cop life she has always desired. She has become a survivor, as she refuses to be a victim. She has worked hard and loves her job. Jessie also joined a swing club, where she can be herself. She is not interested in men romantically, but she also does not want to be tied down. Her heart has been broken enough! Not to mention the club asked her to keep an eye on Sirena.

Sirena Horne has her own secrets. She spends her weekends at the swing club, but keeps at a distance. She does not want commitments, she just wants FUN. But something is off with her, and she also just wants to forget her real life and just be. Then she meets Jessie and nothing is the same again.

Phoebe Alexander writes books of romance. Her books are erotic and spellbound as well. This story drew me in so quickly. Then it kept me interested and pulled out all my emotions. I laughed, cried and even got mad while reading this book. I loved that it was more about the characters and who they are. I fell in love with everybody in this series. This is a must read. Not for those under 18 as it contains adult situations and strong sexual content.

While Jack has graduated from high school, he feels responsible for the other students. His goal is to keep them safe from the drugs, abusive family members and the local gang. Amongst the guys is Jack’s girlfriend Jenni. Problem is she is the sister of the rival gangs leader Rex.

Amy McKinley is just getting started with this short prequel. She has set the stage and her story is a go. What a beginning it is too. This book caught my attention on page one. I hated that it ended so soon. The story is a nail biter, and I was on the edge throughout the book. I am looking forward to reading more from Amy McKinley. Let’s get this story started!

Emma runs her own little shop, in a small town. Just the way she likes it. She has swore off men for a while, after her last heart break. Now she just has one night flings. Definitely no commitments, and no tourist! Drinking got the best of her. That’s how this romance story starts.

Royce is new in town. He is starting a new business and has his focus there. On his night out, he meets the beautiful Emma. She wants one night, he wants forever. Now he is out to prove he is not a tourist, and plans to stay.

Tarrah Anders wrote this story with romance in mind. She did just that. But with every romance there are the exes that come out as well. I love her characters and the story they tell. I also love that she kept the story on a rollercoaster. That right! This is not your average love story. This is so much more.

Let take a suspenseful story and throw in some crazy romance. While we try and stay a head.

Charli works for the FBI, and she is good at her job. But… She has just finished with a serious case. She needs a vacation and she is about to go. Just her and her grandfather, at their favorite spot. In comes the knock and the begging, crying and scared child.

Mimi Barbour has written this story and included some antidotes to bring the story full circle. Her characters are so real, and her explanations are frightening.

Degrees of Innocence (Prestian Series, #1)Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Degrees Of Innocence
A Prestian Series
Book 1
By Via Mari
☆☆☆☆☆
This is erotica story with so much more. Not for those under 18 due to content.

Katarina is a smart design consultant. But she is so much more. She has had her share of disappointments and still presses on. As nobody can do it for her. She meets Chase Prestian, but knows she needs to stay far, far away. She is drawn in by his smile and beautiful eyes, but she must stay far, far away. She has no clue who he is and why she can’t stop thinking about him. So the story begins…….

This is the first book I have read by Via Mari, and it won’t be the last. How she tells her story is clear and full of romance. Yes it is erotic! Yes her characters are loveable and unforgettable. But is that not what we want in a good romance. I loved every page of this story. I think I loved it more because it was not just sex. It is a story of one’s discovery of self worth. I will be looking for and reading more from this author.

Conviction
An Ash Park Novel
By Meghan O’Flynn
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a suspenseful rollercoaster of so many emotions. There is a romance in the story, but the other side of the story is so much more.

Shannon is a district attorney, working for her ex husband. When she wrongfully convicts the wrong woman. Things just feel wrong. Her husband told her to drop it. What’s done is done. Being the woman Shannon is, she needs to make things right. But with everything, doing what’s right has its consequences. This made be the fight of her life. I never expected the outcome!

Meghan O’Flynn had me on the edge of my seat on page one. Her story is a non stop ride of epic proportions. I have never cried so hard, while reading a book. This one just kept bring the intrigue. I could not put it down. Okay I put it down at 3:30 in the morning. Then I sat and pondered over what I had just read. Cried a little more, then fist pumped at Shannons bravery and strength. Such a great story. If you like suspenseful stories this one’s for you. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am Kimberly Cole
A Journey into Terror
R. G. Miller
☆☆☆☆☆
A suspenseful thriller. Never be who you are not.

Madison and her 7 year old daughter are living in a homeless shelter. Been there most of Terri’s life. Madison wants so much more for her daughter as well as herself. Madison is in no way a lazy drugged out homeless person. She tries all she can to make a better living for her little family. As her life is about to change for the better, everything comes crashing down. Has she made another mistake in her choices?

R. G. Miller has written another tense and suspenseful story. This is a real page turner. He is direct and to the point, in his telling of this story. He describes his characters clear enough you can picture them in your minds eye. At one point I smelt something burning, and it scared me half to death. No worries though, I had just burnt dinner. I got that caught up in reading. No Spoilers here! I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.
