My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is the fourth book in the Firehouse 13 series. However, do not let this stop you from picking it up. This story will absolutely suck you in so you cannot put it down – even if you haven’t read the rest of the series yet. The love burning between Sol and Ember is absolutely electric. The book brought out a lot of different feelings inside of me including loss, love, and comfort. This book does a great job of shining a light on mental health and how it can affect the relationships you hold.

Each character held unique qualities. Sol, a retired firefighter, holds onto his injury and lets it affect every part of his life. Where Ember, a rookie firefighter, takes life by the horns and works hard in her career. The two of them together create sparks that could very easily start a fire.

Body Checked (Astoria Bay Thunder #2)Body Checked by C.J. Cartwright
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book caught my interest as soon as I read the blurb. I am a sucker for an enemies-to-lovers story, even if it is frienemies-to-lovers. This book is about Bridger and Tia. The chemistry between the two sets the pages on fire. Bridger is a playboy whose image and game are on the rocks. While Tia is troubled by decisions in her past. It caused her to lose her job and now she found herself attracted to what she vowed to stay away from him. We watch their story play out. I loved every minute of it. I definitely recommend this book.

The Mastermind : A Brother's Best Friend Romance (WaterFyre Rising Book 1)The Mastermind : A Brother’s Best Friend Romance by Nadia Han
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Remi is living in a dark place, a billionaire who has strived to be the best and hide his past, but he has always had a core group of friends who have been there through all the issues with his dad and stepfamily especially his bully of a stepbrother.

He always felt safe and wanted at his friend Graysen’s house, with Mrs Wu always trying to feed them up and show warmth and love he did not have at his own home. As the year’s went on and college came and went Remi built his empire up around the Waterfront of his youth, but now will his past come back and the darkness seep deeper.

Audri Wu has always been the only girl in the group of boys that were constantly at her house, but she has always had a soft spot for Remi. While working at her job she becomes the target of harassment, although she has been to HR nothing really gets sorted but then suddenly there is an announcement that the company has been sold and in walks Remi, but as the chemistry between the two of them intensifies can they make a relationship work or will the past shatter it wide open.

This is the first time I have read anything by this author, and I loved the story and the characters. Remi and Audri’s characters complimented each other brilliantly with the dark and light. I love a forbidden love story and with the twist within this story just had me turning the pages to get to the thrilling parts, although I enjoyed the story it did in my opinion took a while to get going but I understand the backstory had to be told as this led them to this part.

The secondary characters where also a brilliant added addition and hope that this series grows so we get to see the other friends’ lives expanded and delve into the world of the Waterfyre in more detail.

Love is Worth Fighting for (The Meraki Series Book 3)

I loved this book though it did trigger me a bit with Covid and hospitalization during that time.  I was admitted for 9 days for something thankfully not Covid in May of 2020, my only company was the hospital staff during that time.  I know how lonely and afraid I felt at times, couldn’t imagine not being able to say goodbye to a loved one.

Loukas and Krystina have known each other their entire lives and have had their ups and downs during those years but a global pandemic changes everything for them.  They certainly deal with a lot in this book and I shed several tears all the way through.

Loukas makes me want to hug him for so many reasons.   His family and how lost he feels at times really brings out the Mama bear in me.

Krystina’s fire and determination were great with a touch of frustrating at times.  She like all of the other members of her family are very passionate and feels everything with her heart.

I really want to be adopted by this amazing family.  The pride in their Greek heritage and how important family is and it doesn’t matter if they are blood or not.  The recipes shared are an added bonus for sure.

The Lie That BindsThe Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This novel by Amy Argent exceeded expectations! I had read previous books by this author, but the genre for The Lie That Binds was a little different. While still a romance, this book was more of a Young Adult read. The story took me back to high school; where what your friends and others thought of you was truly one of the most important things. The secrets and lies that the two main characters navigate throughout the book, together and separately, was truly amazing. How many secrets and lies are told in the world of a single high school on a daily basis? The Lie That Binds makes you truly think about what is important. Holly and Nathan not only traverse the secrets and lies, but they must come to terms with the feelings that first love evokes in them. This story has a wide array of realistic, relatable characters; some that I liked, others I did not, but all were necessary in the overall telling of the story. I can’t wait to read more books from Amy Argent!

The Lie That Binds

This was a little harder for me to read than I expected once I found out the details of Nathan’s lie, especially since I have two family members who have dealt with this exact situation.   I had several memories come back to me that I hadn’t thought about for years and not many were pleasant.

Holly grabbed me from the beginning.   She is from Amarillo, Texas which is where my father in law is from and she even went to the same high school as he did.  It was a nice little connection which I appreciated and stuck with me throughout the book.

Nathan gave me a lot of anxiety, but it didn’t detract from his personality for me.  I wish he would have expected been honest from the beginning and saved me a lot of stress.

This is not my first book by this author and won’t be the last, though I will need to remember how anxious she can make me at times.

Bernadette Marie gives us a feel good book with not one but three sweet romances! A new author for me, Bernadette wrote us the perfect book to curl up and lose ourselves to imagination. Well written with great characters and the main character Leona was so well written! I enjoyed the idea of a book store where matchmaking is paired with a good book! Would definitely read more like this!

This is the first book that I have read from this author, and I was not disappointed. This book immediately drew me in by the setting taking place inside a bookstore. (Truth be told, I’m a little jealous of the character. It’s always been my dream.) I had to read the book from the beginning to end in one sitting. Her writing is amazing, and I could feel and imagine everything the characters were. I’m excited to read more of her books in the future.

There is a lot to this book especially when it comes to Tia’s past. I thought the chemistry between Bridger and Tia was sizzling. They pull you in and you just keep turning the page of the book because you want to see what happens next. Terrific story.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

We met Bridger and Tia in the first book of the series…but this story is all about them. Bridger is a playboy Enforcer for the team. He is knows for his antics both on and off the ice. He is on thin ice with the team due to his poor playing and needs to clean up his act. He has an idea that may get him some more positive press.
When Tia joins her best friend as she photographs a hockey team for a charity calendar, she is not expecting the immediate attraction she feels for one of the players. She has sworn off bad boys due to a past relationship that still haunts and affects her to this day. Bridger and Tia decide they need just one weekend to work through their attraction so they can both move on. What they don’t expect is the friendship they form.
However, as they usually do, feelings start to creep their way into their friendship. Keeping their “friends only” relationship gets harder and harder to maintain. When they both find themselves in trouble…will they turn to each other? Or will their rules keep them from seeing what they truly need could be each other?
This was another good book in an enjoyable series. I love a good hockey romance and this one kept my attention the whole time. Tia and Bridger are both great characters. I enjoyed seeing the characters from the first book make appearances. I look forward to seeing where this series goes in the future.

I enjoyed Sol and Ember’s story. Finding love when you least expect and taking that chance on the unknown.
Sol lost a piece of himself when he lost his job, and the demons he battled because of it took away his sense of purpose. Ember was a bright light and new to being a firefighter, and still trying to find her place. Sol was her mentor, but also so much more. Together they give each the strength needed.

Burned by Fire: Firehouse 13 by Danielle Jacks

Burned by Fire isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. It’s a Firehouse 13 Book and it’s an amazing read. You really like Firehouse Romance then you’ll like this.

Sol used to be a firefighter until he was injured. He saved two kids from a burning building while he was off duty. He doesn’t like being called a hero because he doesn’t feel like one. Then Ember comes into his life and changes it. The quote I chose for Sol is: “It’s a bit like my situation. Everyone thinks I’m a hero for saving those kids, but when I look in the mirror all I see are the scars. I don’t see their futures.”

Ember has always had a crush on her former mentor and firehouse buddy. She’s even collected the charity calendars the firehouse makes because of him. When he comes by and they get stuck in the elevator she confesses her feelings for him. She isn’t expecting to start a life with him. The quote I chose for Ember is: “I look up to you because you’re fearless. You moved away from your hometown as soon as you were old enough and went after your dreams. You’re not my hero because you’ve saved lives. You’re my hero because you inspire me to be better.”

Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.

Burned by Love—Firehouse 13 #4 by Danielle Jacks

This is my first Danielle Jacks novel, however it will not be my last! LOVED this book! Short, easy, read that leaves the reader rooting for this couples happily ever after, despite the questionable age gap. Can’t wait to go back and read the first 3 books of the series. Phenomenal read!

Heroic veteran firefighter, Solan Fox, is devastated and mentally broken when rescuing two children from a fire leaves him injured and forced to give up a career that he loves. Finding solace in the bottom of a bottle and drowning in a pool of self pity, Sol is certain that his live is over….that is until a chance encounter reconnects Sol with his former mentee, Ember. Ember is a young, ambitious, firefighter whose career was just beginning when Sol had his accident. As Ember has always admired Sol, she realizes that he is struggling and is anxious to help him find his place in the world—outside of fighting fires. As their friendship continues to blossom, they soon realize that the feelings each other had kept hidden from the world are sizzling right beneath the surface. Is a relationship with Ember, enough to give new meaning to Sol’s life or will the fact that she is still able to do the job they both loved come between them?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An emotional young adult high school romance. The main characters of the story are well written so that you cannot help but connect to them. They highlight the different cliques from highschool while maintaining a reality to them. It is refreshing to see a more realistic view point on the teenage world of high school as opposed to it being drawn over the top to all extremes.

Nathan has gone to this school his whole life, but before freshman year something changed. Yet in order to protect himself he chooses to keep everyone at a distance and himself behind a wall of lies. Only those who must know and his family are aware of his deepest secret. That is until a new girl becomes a witness to it.

To what lengths will Nathan go to keep his secret from the school? What lies will he add to his wall of protection? Will Holly keep his secret or will she ruin him?

Pick up the book to find out! You will be sucked in to find out his secret, the dilemma with Holly, and everything else that happens along the way.

I loved the realness the author brings to this book. The high school drama and bullies, we’ve all been there and how she incorporates all that into the book and it comes full circle is real life. Holly was relatable as in she was trying to just fit in, and then she accidently discovers the secret of a popular kid. I was rooting for Holly and Evan to make Nathan feel comfortable and they went above and beyond what I could have imagined. It was hard to put this book down once it sucked me in a few chapters in. I just wasn’t a fan of Nathan and that crowd at first and then I fell in love with the person he was becoming with Holly and because of Holly. I look forwarded to reading more from this author!

High school years are tough! Everyone is jockeying for position whether it be with the nerds, jocks, preppies, stoners, etc. Imagine all that stress and being dealt a huge health blow right before your freshman year. Nathan’s life is crumbling but no one knows except his family and his teachers.

Holly and her dad just moved to the area. Holly’s dad is the new chief of police. No pressure for a new kid, eh? So many challenging things going through Holly’s head until she confronts this bully Nathan one day. The next few hours will have her questioning that confrontation.

I really enjoyed this book and wanted to give it 5 stars. However, being the mother of two teenagers, the language and the pretty descriptive “adult” scenes left me challenged. I know that this happens in reality but I would not encourage my children to read this book. The characters are loveable and understandable. Some of them I loved more than others, some of them I grew to love more as I read and learned more about them. The nicknames for the various characters did become a little bit difficult to keep up with at times, especially when interchanging the real names with the nick names. I found “GothGirl” and Ivan to be my favorite characters and I love to read a spin-off about them!!

Overall, an enjoyable book. It encompasses many difficult topics and I believe they are all represented very fairly. This book kept my attention and I read it in 2 sittings (only because my Kindle died and I had to recharge it!).

I thought this was a good book. Ember is fairly new to the fore department and Sol was not only her mentor but her crush too. Once Sol was injured and could no longer do his job, he was on a downward spiral. Ember hated seeing him like that and kept trying to get him to see reason. I believe she got him to understand when they were trapped on an elevator together. I thought it was a really sweet story. Unfortunately, not all stories like this have the same ending. Definitely recommend this book to other readers.

Wow this is by far the most emotional read of the series, I have found myself following the highs and lows (and there are many), in this the steamiest of the Titans of Manhattan series.
Jonas Courtland developer of hotels and playboy of the Titans determined not to fall in love and has a continuous string of conquests.
We follow him revisiting the past where in High School his issues stem from, a past he never thought would have to deal with.
Makenzie the outsider, daughter of the local preacher is taken in by the words and actions of young Jonas, their relationship grows and then devastation when recordings of the pair are thrown out there for all to see.
Makenzie whilst dealing with her feelings is taken into hospital and treated for various mental health issues, a pregnancy and adoption. Working hard to find herself, get her career underway and her issues under control until she interviews for a position in a hotel running the restaurant and comes into contact with Mason.
Can both of these loveable but damaged people make a go of it this time round? They both deserve their happy ever after.

I really enjoyed this book, the characters felt real and relatable. I truly appreciate how this book talks about mental heath, especially men’s mental health because I genuinely feel like mental health in men is so often looked over. Men are considered strong and like nothing can break them, and while that may be partially true, men are human just the same and feel emotions and deal with things they don’t always discuss. I love how the relationship between these two evolved, they are both a little damaged. His was from injuries and losing the one thing that mattered most to him, until Ember. Hers was from the relationship with her mother. I wasn’t too sure I would be able to get into this book at the beginning, but it didn’t take long for the storyline to progress and make it easy to get into.

There’s enough twists to keep you on your toes and I found myself wanting to know what would happen next as fast as possible. I was completely hooked and I was sad to leave these characters at the end but I’m excited to see where the author goes from here.

Remi and Audri – the tension between them was just amazing, I could feel it coming off the pages as I read. I do love a forbidden romance, and this one was definitely that! The storyline was complex but not so much that it was difficult to read, the author did an amazing job with making sure everything flowed really well.
I am definitely going to be waiting in anticipation for more from this author and I absolutely would recommend this book to other readers!

Wow!! For a novella, this is a fantastic story. Second-chance romances are one of my favorites to read. The thought of people being able to find love again after a troublesome time in their life is both inspiriting and encouraging. Sol is a fireman who was forced to retire after getting injured after saving 2 children from a burning house. He had to retire from his career. He ended up retiring and is now an alcoholic that has to get therapy. Ember is his best friend and mentee. She is 11 years his junior and has a tremendous crush on him. She is working through her own baggage. Can they help each other? He is kind of gruff but she surprised me by dishing it right back. They have chemistry. I felt it in the story. You feel their emotions. I loved every bit of the story. The pain, the tenderness for each other and themselves. When Sol realizes he can help others was an aha moment and your heart felt his joy. The spice was just perfect. Ember needed someone to giver her the push when she needed that reminder she was strong enough and that was Jackie. It was a terrific story that I think many will enjoy. You have to read the story and experience every minute. I want to say it felt like reading it in Dolby surround. I felt the story around me and that just doesn’t happen, if at all. Terrific story.
