This is my first book by Miss Brandy Nacole, and she did not disappoint. Psychological thrillers are not normally my thing but all I can say about I Will Bury You is WOW!!!! If you love psychological thrillers full of love, death, and so many surprising twists and turns that it makes your head spin then I definitely recommend I Will Bury You but I will warn you that Miss Nacole will have you guessing until the very end. This psychological thriller is beyond dark, complex, and so detailed that you’ll want to read it more than once to try and catch all the little details and clues that Miss Nacole leaves us.

Key West Dead (Jake Wolfe Book 6) by Mark Nolan

4 Stars

This was not my favorite of the series, can’t really pinpoint why, it just didn’t seem to flow as well at times. I still loved the book because I love Jake and of course Cody. It has always amazed me that this author can take a character like Cody and make him one of my favorite book characters ever. I completely enjoyed more of Sarah in this story. I would love to see more emphasis on these two, but seeing a few different sides to her in this part really helped. More focus on their relationship would make me really happy.

All of these books can be read as standalones but reading them all will give you a better feel for these characters. I’ve always said this would make for a great TV series and I do plan to binge read these sometime in the future as I really enjoy this author’s writing style and the edge of your seat suspense that is always offered.

Can’t wait for more!

Safe Harbor: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 5 AUDIO BOOK by Valerie Davisson – Review by Carly Vogler

Safe Harbor, by Valerie Davisson, is actually the fifth book in her Logan McKenna Mystery series. Do not let this keep you from reading it as a stand alone! This is the first story I have read, and I had no issue following along.

Logan is trying to have a relaxing vacation with her family when she is thrown into the middle of a murder investigation. If that wasn’t enough, the ghosts of her past can’t seem to leave her alone either. Faced with a decision that could change everything, what can she do?

I give Key West Dead (Jake Wolfe Book 6) by Mark Nolan, 5 stars.

I should know better by now. When I first started this book, I wasn’t sure if I was really in the mood for this genre. My genre moods change frequently and I couldn’t decide on what I wanted to read. Of course, I was wrong. I was yet again quickly pulled into the story and could not put it down. I love Jake and Cody and the adventures they get themselves into. There is plenty of action and suspense in this book and it does not take long for it all to start. There are some surprises in this story too, one of them got me in the beginning. After that, I was hooked.

I love being taken for a thrilling ride filled with suspense, some laughter, some love, and some loss. This book has it all. The characters you love most are back too, along with new ones you will want to see again. A fan of suspense thrillers (not gonna lie, a huge fan of Cody too), I highly recommend this book.

Key West Dead (Jake Wolfe Book 6) by Mark Nolan – Review by Rebecca Hill

Key West DeadKey West Dead by Mark Nolan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Key West Dead is the 6th book in the Jake Wolfe series. It centers around the character Jake Wolfe. This book easily stands alone or as part of the series. I have not read the others in the series, yet I had no trouble keeping up with the characters or back stories. I do plan to read the others now as this book was so good. Mark Nolan did a superb job with this book. There were several things I loved about his writing. One, the characters appropriately cursed, and it fit with the characters. However, Mark Nolan didn’t just use the F word or other language. He would describe the language in such a way that you completely understood without being vulgar. The second thing I enjoyed was that there were no descriptive sex scenes. The main character and his girlfriend flirted, and the story alluded to them having sex. But it wasn’t crucial to the story and never went into great detail. This book was a fantastic read. I had trouble putting it down. I highly recommend you take the journey down to Key West and into the life of Jake Wolfe!

This is the second book in the Shadow of Doubt Books. If you have not read the first book, Rebecca Remains, I highly recommend reading it first. This story is so thought-provoking good that I could not put it down until I was done with it completely. The characters really made the story believable. and connectable. This story is about Randy. Randy is a writer and he has taken his boyfriend to Honeybee Lake for the peace and quiet and to take his relationship to the next level. That is until the body showed up in the lake. Randy is at a loss. His past is coming back full steam ahead and he is fighting for his innocence. Will he be successful in proving his innocence? His sister comes to assist him in the fight. Will too much come to a head and Randy loses everything? Will the truth set him free or will it be a little too late? I highly recommend this book. Be prepared to complete the book in one sitting as it is a page-turner.

I really liked the way Nacole draws you in, keeps you guessing and then drops the absolute mic on you with this story. I really really enjoyed the writing style in this book, it was effortless to read and I felt compelled to pick up my kindle whenever I possibly could to get further into this intriguing story. I feel like the characters were expertly developed – Especially Ann and Aunt Meredith. I would recommend this book to everybody, I think it was absolutely fantastic.

Murder at Honeybee Lake (Shadow of a Doubt, #2)Murder at Honeybee Lake by Jessica Aiken-Hall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this engaging paranormal crime novel which is book two in the ‘Shadow of a Doubt’ series. I would recommend reading the previous book as the characters do crossover and Tessa’s backstory was also explained. In this novel we are back with Tessa Stevens who has a special gift of being able to communicate with the dead. Following an abusive relationship author Randy Fletcher has been taking things slowly with boyfriend Ben, but as he enjoys the quiet solace of Honeybee Lake Randy decides to take his relationship to the next level. Randy’s past comes back to haunt him when a body shows up in the water and his safe place is threatened. As evidence piles up looking as though Randy is guilty of this murder he and his sister Mandy Blake must prove his innocence and the best way to do that is to find the real killer. When Mandy asks her sister in law Tessa to communicate with the victim she has to reconsider her belief that her brother is innocent. Randy is determined to discover the truth but both temptation and betrayal make him question everything and it might be to late to find the answers he seeks.

This was a real page turner and the plot twists kept me guessing until the end. The storyline does contain sensitive subject matter but it is dealt with sensitively. I was gripped from page one and couldn’t put this book down. The characters and the setting are bought to life by the descriptive narrative and the storyline flowed well. I liked how Tessa’s character had developed from book one and I look forward to future books with her as the main character. The book is written from Mandy and Randy’s point of view and this worked well and added to the overall drama and suspense of the story. I recommend this mystery crime novel with a paranormal twist as a great read.

I Will Bury You by Brandy Nacole  was a really thrilling read! At the beginning I wasn’t sure I was going to like it that well, and it wasn’t until after the middle of the book that I really got hooked. This book was very thrilling,  and exciting and entertaining. There’s so much I want to say about this book, but I don’t want to give away any spoilers. I guess I can say that I saw where the book was going in terms of storyline earlier, so it was slightly predictable, but I definitely didn’t expect the ending. That took me by surprise and was an unexpected twist. My only complaint was that I wished the story flowed better. With some factors of the book, I found it a little difficult to concentrate so that took away part of the story. But all in all this was a great read! I definitely recommend it.

Maggie (Maggie Trilogy Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Mya O’Malley – Review by Sunday Barnaby

Maggie by Mya O’Malley

Narrated by Emily Ember

Four Stars

 

Maggie is the first book in the Maggie Trilogy by Mya O’Malley. This is the first book I have listened to by Ms. O’Malley, but I will definitely be listening the rest of this trilogy because this first book really intrigued me. This book had me on the edge of my seat from the beginning, with all the twists and turns, I didn’t know where we would be going next. This story flowed and before I knew it I was at the end. The paranormal factors were fascinating. Naomi and Maggie are truly strong and unusual characters.  If you like a great ghost story with romance added in, this is the book for you. Can’t wait to read the rest of this series.

This is the first book I have listened to narrated by Emily Ember. She has a very distinct voice and at the beginning I wasn’t sure how If I would get used to it, but by the second chapter, she was really bringing those characters to life. I look forward to listening to more books narrated by Emily.

This book starts off with a bang. Literally. And wow, does the story only grow page by page. I am not usually a fan of this genre, but it was recommended by a friend so I thought I would give it a read. And I am glad that I did. I could see this story becoming a TV movie with all the action and romance taking place. I don’t think it would be a good fit for Hallmark but would be perfect for the Lifetime channel thanks to the murder and mystery that keep you in suspense. I loved the way the characters worked to solve their crime and even included a bomb sniffing dog as well. I love animals so it’s always nice to see them get their share of a story line too. I haven’t read any of the previous books featuring these two detectives, but after reading this one I certainly plan on it.

A thriller to say the least! It begins with a tragedy that throws Ann Winter’s life into disarray. As the story goes on, you discover that things are not what they seem, and tragedy strikes one after another. Who can you trust? Who is responsible? The story keeps you second guessing the answers to these questions. The major plot twist was clear from the beginning, but the more detailed and nuanced story still took some unexpected turns. After about the halfway point, I could not put it down until I finished it! I would have preferred to have a bit more mystery leading to the revelation of the main plot twist and I would have liked to see more detail and twists after it was revealed. In general, a captivating and quick read, perfect for a young adult audience.

I Will Bury You is a YA twisted psychological thriller story by Brandy Nacole. This story is full of deception and lies, suspense and mystery and more. I Will Bury You is fast paced and full of suspense from start to finish. I found myself having to back track and reread sections due to some editing issues. Overall, it didn’t detract from the story that much it just stilted the easy flow.

She is losing a fight with reality. Who is after her? Is she next to wind up dead? What is real and what isn’t? Who is that person looking back at her?

YA’s will love this story and will not want to put it down.

This is the sixth book in the Jake Wolf series, Key West Dead by Mark Nolan. Whenever I see a new book from Mark, I can’t wait to get my hands on it. I love, love, love Jake Wolf and Cody and the adventures or should I say misadventures that they find themselves in. As we know nothing ever goes the way you expect it to as we are giving little twisted gems that are thrown in to put you off track. Mark knows just when to add the humour and banter that goes on between Jake and his bestie Terrell and the other characters, they always make me laugh out loud. I always feel as if I have had a good work out after reading one of Mark’s books due to being constantly in a state of ready on the edge of my seat to jump up if needed and heart in mouth palpitations. On top of that we get an adventure on the seas and culinary tastes from around the Florida Keys.

Take it from me Mark Nolan is a must on anyone’s TBR list.

The marriage is short lived as the newlywed’s boat exploded while they were sailing away. Someone calling himself Orion is threatening even more explosions unless he is paid $30 million.

Always a good mystery story when Nolan’s writing it. His stories are always believable and fun.
