Year two at the Grave Digger Academy. What will happen this year? Makayla has a huge rivalry with her two brothers that go to a different academy.

Savage Secrets Book 4

The author has hit it out of the park with this continued series. I can not get enough of this tight knit group of Italian mafia family friends. Elena has been in hiding for so long. At the end of the last book, her secret came out that she was still alive. The family went nuts. Now things have gotten too dangerous with the Russian mafia that she has to be found. Who will find her first? The Russians or the Italians? This book had so many shocks for Elena that your heart will be pulled in so many directions. If you have read the previous books, this is a must read for sure. The author brings these characters to life in each book, you feel like you would want to be friends and know them. Amazing writing.

Ruthless Heir Book 5

You will be drawn into this book from the moment you meet Summer and then not long after Luc. This twisted tale will keep you on pins and needles. I couldn’t put this down. Luc and Summer have a very complicated connection that only deepens as the story continues. I had to look and see if there was a next book. YES, there is. I can’t wait.

I hope this series never has to end.

Oliver, A Story of Adoption by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Deb Robinson

Oliver: A Story about AdoptionOliver: A Story about Adoption by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a cute book about the topic of adoption. I think it is an important subject that children should all understand and not just adopted children. I read this story to my grandson and he loved the alligator characters that he could count. The book explores the feelings a child may have on the subject and reinforces that it is alright to talk openly about it.

The Mermaid and the Ice Cube Necklace (Mermaid Science)The Mermaid and the Ice Cube Necklace by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book due to the fact that you got a science lesson but didn’t realise it. The illustrations were bright and colourful and littles were able to pick out the mermaid, ice cubes, lemonade etc. Give you the opportunity to show little ones with a real ice cube and create play time. The additional information on the state of water was a very interesting addition for older children and parents.

Burn (Elemental Warriors Book 1) by Joanna Morgan – Review by Deb Robinson

Burn (Elemental Warriors, #1)Burn by Joanna Morgan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I so loved this book and the flow of the story line. The author took her time and didn’t rush through the ending to just finish the book. As a reader, I appreciate a well thought out story. This book had an underlying current of tension all the way though.

Brooke is a career oriented person who is adamant on paying her own way in life. She moved to a quiet town that made her feel like this was home. She’s a graphic designer for the local newspaper and loves her job.

Levi is an elemental from a different planet to keep humans safe from the Chaolt (a causer of chaos) in the form of natural disasters. Everytime a Chaolt kills a sleeper ( a human with latient elemental powers) a disaster is caused.

Levi and Brooke meet when Levi sees her across the street and his powers get all twitchy. He has no idea why he is reacting as such. Yes, she is beautiful but he has seen beautiful women before.

So much happens once these two meet that you will not be able to put this book down. Brook is in danger at every turn and will need protection from something she knows nothing about. This story has twists and turns, suspense to keep you reading and a love story you will be cheering for until the very end.

Hungry Business: A Gothic Story about the Horrors of Dating by Maria DeBlassie – Review by Deb Robinson

Hungry BusinessHungry Business by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first short story I have read from this author. I was hooked by the very first page. The woman in the beginning is describing a dead man across from her at a dinner table. Why? How? When? Did she do it? As you continue to read you find out all these answers. The story is based on humans and hungries and what has made this phenomenon happen. The woman is lonely and trying to come to terms with the eventuality of her life. I love that she has an odd relationship with a cat across the way. Never give up hope.

Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 1) by Toni Denise – Review by Deb Robinson

Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 1)Jake by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. The premise of the blind date is one I have never come across before. Made the portion of the actual blind date extremely interesting. I couldn’t even imagine. Not too sure of how I would feel. Jake is talked into going on this blind date by his friends (the boys club). How it turns out is hysterical and you really feel for the guy.

Lauren is an PA for Cade. He’s a wonderful boss and doesn’t want to ever lose her. Things get tense and unnerving when the previous owner is a disrespectful and extremely rude man. Since Lauren is the first line defence, she gets the brunt of this disparaging man.

This book will have you swooning and tense and on your toes throughout.

This book was absolutely incredible. This wonderful author keeps intoxicating me with her books.

Undeniable (Central Florida Stories, #2)Undeniable by Victoria Saccenti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Suspense, Violence, Love, Fireworks

I have to say this is the best book I have read this year. I’m an avid reader and this book pulled me in so many directions. I was captivated by the characters within the first two chapters.

Areley is the main character and has had a crush on Kurt since she was about 11 years old. Although life in the future has them separated due to the difference in age, she has always had a fierce attraction to her brother’s best friend.

Kurt, a military man, is back, State side and has helped a friend with a BDSM club. He is a Dom with many PTSD issues. He is drowning in self pity and doesn’t know where to go from here.

After a tragic and scary incident, Areley is forced away from home and into hiding.

I could not put this book down. I needed to know what was going to happen. I enjoy BDSM based books. This was the best book on the topic and more to the actual scene. Though as the author states a little rushed due to time constraints.

This is a MUST read.

Someone Exactly Like Me (Wounded Hearts, #1)Someone Exactly Like Me by Debbie Cromack
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

EXCELLENT!!
When you lose confidence in yourself due to others, everyday will take on a life of its own. We struggle daily to achieve our best and succeed. The characters in this book are doing exactly that. Two different worlds, two different struggles. The way the author wrote this book, I felt like it was her telling her own story. There is so much passion and conviction in her words.

The story revolves around Nicco and Destiny. The attraction is sizzling hot from the very first day they meet. Their deal brings them closer and closer. With a jealous model thrown in for good measure. If I were to have a fantasy man, then Nicco would be it.

This is the first book by Debbie Cromack I have read and I just found myself an author I will enjoy reading for a long time. Enjoy this excellent read. Yo won’t be disappointed.

This is the first book I have read from this absolutely amazing and gifted author. She has a way of getting you deep into the soul of the characters. I had tears streaming down my face by her talent of creating such depth. I loved this book. Evan and Callie both struggle with issues that will unfold throughout the book. You will cheer these characters on and fall in love with them. The messages in this book were very poignant and spoke to me loudly. I needed to hear a lot of what the author was trying to get across. I am better emotionally for reading this book. I don’t usually read books twice but I believe with this one, I will do so when life is giving me lemons and I need to refocus. Thank you to the author who has opened my eyes.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story had so many facets to it which kept me thinking long past the end of the book. I was very thankful I did not live in the time period of the story where women were treated as nothing more than property. The Queen of Hearts has been through much pain and abuse by the one who married her. She is a strong woman who will get her revenge. The story has many twists that will keep you reading to find out if she can truly trust anyone again. Women may not have many rights in the book but they sure do have a link to each other.

This was an amazing beginning to this series. I loved the premise of the book as a back to a video game. I’m sure we will hear more about this later in the series. The book was filled with trauma for both the main characters. Second chances are wrought with pain and despair and never an easy road to travel. I loved the bonds of friendship that ran very deep within the group. Will love bloom or will it be snuffed out before it can start? Lots of twists and turns to keep reading. Can’t wait to start book 2

Dark Sparrow Box Set: The Complete 6-Book Series (A Dark Sparrow Novel) by India Kells – Review by Deb Robinson

Dark Sparrow Box Set: The Complete 6-Book SeriesDark Sparrow Box Set: The Complete 6-Book Series by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This entire series was remarkable. I was so drawn to all the characters and the trials they each went through. As a family of sorts they stick together to fight their evil father.

Lost Bastard Book 1

WOW WOW WOW!!! This book had me on the brink throughout. This is the first book I have read from this amazing author India Kells. I will certainly be reading more. This book is based on the mob underworld and has so many twists and turns you will not be able to put it down. Lots of lack of sleep with this one. The character building is phenomenal and you get very attached to the main characters as well as sub characters. I loved Deva and her bravery and outspoken attitude. She is a woman that has come into her own after coming back to Chicago. Is there anyone that can be trusted? I got to a point in this book where there would be a happily ever after or would make me cry my eyes out. India Kells, bravo as this was an amazing read.

Cold Bastard Book 2

This was an amazing book. The characters had me feeling all kinds of things. I even cried. So many twists and turns, I was on the edge of my seat. The intensity is palpable between Zoe and Archer. Zoe comes to work for Archer as a dark sparrow to keep an eye on him. Danger is close as he tries to close a deal to sell his Oil and gas refineries. Finch is always in the background in this novel as well. Pulling strings and trying to bring down a bastard son of his. If you loved book one you will fall in love with this book as well. Be prepared to not want to put this book down though. I pulled a very late night. Onto book 3 as I can not get enough of this fabulous author and series.

Wild Bastard Book 3

Author India Kells does it again. This book was top notch. Isabel and Kai have met before and fell in love until she left without notice. Isabel had her reasons. After 15 years they are face to face again, pain and lost love brings back hurt and remorse to Isabel. Isabel is the black sparrow in this story and is put in close proximity to Finch. Finch wants to become Mayor of Chicago and enlists Isabel’s company to handle his campaign. I can not believe what happens in this book. Finch is worse than I ever thought. This story was a turning point in the series. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen in book 4. If you haven’t read this series, It is a must read.

True Bastard Book 4

In the continuing story of the Bastard Series, author India Kells sucks you into the story right from the start. I read this book so quickly. I loved the story of Liam and Catriona. Liam is a Chicago police officer and Catriona is a great money tracker. The brothers are recouping after their last run in with Finch but still working hard to bring him down. They place their hopes in Catriona to find where Finch is hiding his money so they can cut it off. She has her work cut out for her as danger begins to surround them. A few more characters are added to this story and brings a heart warming conclusion. On to book 5. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen. I am so invested in all these characters I will miss them when the series is done.
Dark Bastard Book 5

I am almost half way through the book and I am so angry at Finch. I wanted to throw my kindle across the room. I didn’t because I really need to know how this is going to turn out and well it’s my kindle. Ellie is a 911 operator and has nothing to do with this crazy world of treachery. She is on the brink of ending the non stop pain she is in emotionally when Sam calls her by mistake. One phone call may save them both or plunge them both into the beginning of a nightmare. Sam’s past comes to light in this novel and this man has suffered the obscene cruelties of life at the hands of his father. This was the first book in which a dark sparrow is not used. Gabrielle is not heard from at all. What is happening at that end? No one knows.

King Bastard Book 6

Loved Loved Loved this finale of this series. The eldest in the family and the doctor. The author was so dynamic in her story telling of this book. I literally could not put this book down. As always you get glimpses of all your favorite characters in this book as well. The closeness and struggles that come with most families. This book will have you riveted to your seat as you wait for the next foot to fall. The author does not disappoint in any way. This is a must read. I’m just sad that these wonderful characters have come to an end. I could read about them for much longer.

She has you thinking you will lose your mind. The fear palpable in Dwarf and Raven. Dwarf isn’t sure if he is taking on her fear or is actually experiencing it himself. This unlikely pair goes through it all. Can they both survive in the end?

This book had me sneaking in every second of reading I could get in. It was very hard to put down.

Luca and Salvatore are Hybrid brothers still looking to find their mate. Half angel, half vampire, they are fighting to keep humans safe from demons.

Angelina is an artist and finally has her paintings in a gallery. She is making money to live now with the one thing she loves the most doing. She lives with her best friend Cassie who is always trying to set her up on dates, much to her chagrin.

Changes are in the air for everyone involved. Good, bad, and ugly. I need book two for sure.

Heart Broken (Satan’s Devils MC #5) Audio Book by Manda Mellett – Review by Deb Robinson

These books just keep getting better and better.  This book had me riveted to my seat.  If you have read the previous books you are aware of what happened to Heart.  This poor guy can’t seem to stay out of the hospital.  After the death of his old lady, Heart is completely broken, hence the name of the book.  He embarks on a forced journey to get his head together.  An unexpected phone call turns two unlikely people into friends.  This is the story of Heart’s compelling story through grief. It is not an easy passage and many things get in the way, even himself.  This book is explosive in parts and heart wrenching in others.  As always, a must read from this amazing author who always finds a way to keep her story unique and diverse.

This is a daunting story of young women wanting to find husbands in the new world. All is not what it seems. The women are put in appalling conditions in the bottom of a ship and basically starved. As the women get off the ship in hopes for a better life, things become more complicated than they ever expected. Will they be married off to good men? Will life improve? Many twists and turns to keep you reading and engaged in the story. Greer, your main female character has the guts to push the limits and put herself in harm’s way more than once. This book had a different premise than most paranormal books I have read. Well worth the read.

This book had a great premise. With my love of all things medical and supernatural, it was a well blended story that kept my attention from beginning to end. Joanie, the main female lead in the story, is strong beyond words although she thinks of herself the opposite way. This book is a mystery from the beginning. I recommend not rushing through it as it is jammed with clues you can not miss. I was guessing until the very end. The suspense will keep you reading the mystery will keep you wondering who is lying and who can be trusted. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

I just finished this audio book and my gosh what a rollercoaster ride of emotions. It is good I had an audio book because the tears were streaming down my face. If I have to vote, I’d say this is now my favorite book from this author. So much happens in this book you will not want to stop listening. Alex is broken but yet still has strength to overcome the worst of the worst. Dart is given an opportunity to grow in his role at the club due to unforeseen circumstances. This book starts off with a bang and never lets you go. Some extremely sensitive issues are brought up in this book. If you have read any of the prior books in the series. This is a must must must read. The narrators are the best I have listened to and will drag the emotions out of you whether good or bad.
