5 Stars

I can not believe this series is over already…Time for a reread now that they are all out and I can read them back to back.

This one featured Liz who we have read about through most of this series and this time the story she is looking for could be the most dangerous she has ever been involved in. I’ve mentioned many times in other reviews that there was an ongoing story going in the background which is why I can only recommend reading all of these in order so that you can completely appreciate how much of an amazing job this author has done in wrapping all of this up. Having all the characters from the previous books was awesome and I can not recommend this series and this author enough.

I can not wait to see where this author goes next but for sure I will be waiting and one clicking.

Loved it! Awesome job Miss Silvio!

Its been 4 days since I finished this book…I’m still not sure if I’m ready to review it but I have to so that maybe I can get some closure. I’ve read a lot of books in my life and I’ve almost met my challenge this year and I’ve got a handful of favorites so far this year in many different genres. I have to say that this book touched me in ways no other book ever has. I’ve read many of the reviews where so many said it wasn’t what they expected as they were looking for a thriller as it’s described.

LiteraryTerms.com defines thriller as
A thriller is a genre of literature, film, and television whose primary feature is that it induces strong feelings of excitement, anxiety, tension, suspense, fear, and other similar emotions in its readers or viewers—in other words, media that thrills the audience.

In my opinion this was every bit the Domestic Thriller I expected. As a Mom I was thoroughly invested in this story and felt every emotion described in the definition above. I can’t even imagine how I would have handled everything in this story but kind of feel like it would have been very similar to the actions of what this mother did and how she reacted. I could completely relate to it all. I finished reading this book and had to sit after crying and having a hard time reading the words to finish and I just sat and stared. My husband even asked me if I was ok at one point. I was in awe at how well this story was written and how real this author kept everything. The Mom in this book wasn’t perfect, she didn’t do what society deems right in every aspect but the one thing she did do was Love with her whole being.

I could probably sit here and write as many words for this review as there are in the book itself so I’m going to focus now on this author. I’ve read other books by her and genuinely loved them all, but this one has made me seriously want to meet her. I want this book in my hands physically and I know I will read it again and again.

My advice…Read from cover to cover..not just the story but the before and after the story then do what i did and go to her website and read her about me.

Thank you Miss Billiter for giving me this book, it will never leave my mind and no matter what I read in the future this book will always hold a special place with me and i saw a bit of a hint of another to possibly follow. Oh My Goodness I must start preparing for that.

This is my second book by these two amazing authors and it was awesome checking back in on a couple of the characters from the first book as well as meeting some new characters in this one.

This was a fast moving story and I finished pretty quick since I could not put it down once I started. It was full of emotion and I have to say I laughed out loud more than once with the interaction that went on in this group. There is no way I won’t read the third book because there is so much going on and I have to know how these authors plan to end this series.

This is definitely not a chosen genre of mine but these authors have made me fall in love with this story.

Awesome!

This has quickly become one of my favorite series. I love all the friendship and family bonds that are portrayed and the dialogue between these characters is so comfortable and I want to be right in the middle of it all. I want to be adopted by all these parents!

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this book, I definitely had not had enough of Fitz and Bella and this was even more than I had hoped for. Revisiting these characters has made me want to go back and reread them all again, I am so completely invested in these stories and Im convinced I saw some things unfolding in this little gem that is giving us a preview of what is to come for a couple people **fingers crossed**

The twists that came about in this book were awesome! I actually laughed/cried at one point both at the same time even though I knew it was coming since I picked up a reaction earlier on.

I Highly Highly recommend reading every single book leading up to this one, there is way too much that happens before and to completely appreciate everything in this book you must have it all.

Can not wait, SERIOUSLY till the next book…I know I have said this in previous reviews but although I want them all Hawkins is the one I hope comes really soon!

Loved It!

I loved this book so so so much, I met Poppy in Rule Breaker by Phoebe Alexander which if you haven’t read go grab that as soon as possible, the two books work well with each other. Poppy is now one of my favorite female leads. She cracked me up half the time with her inner dialogue and when she was talking directly to me.

Sylvie has a way of grabbing you at the very beginning and slowly transporting you into the story where you forget that anything else is going on around you.

This book had it all and Poppy and Mac had quite a journey, ups and downs and definitely the slow burn the author tells you to expect before beginning. Mac is every girls dream and I fell in love with him immediately, even when he scared me as much as he scared Poppy.

Not going in to the storyline…Just know you need to read this book, it was completely awesome and I know I will read it again in the future.

Can’t wait for the next book I pick up by this author, an automatic one click for me.

This was my first book by this author and I loved it, even though Paranormal fantasy is not my normal choice this one was hit out of the park.

I was hooked at page 1 and as the story unfolded the mystery grew and had me not putting this book down till I finished. The flow was perfect and I fell in love with Amelia and Toby and worried about them throughout. There were secrets and dangerous choices that had to be made and I’m rambling because Im afraid Ill give too much away.

Read this book, I promise no matter what genre you read you will love it!

I can not wait for the next book I pick up by this author.

This is an automatic go to author for me..I’ve loved everything I’ve read by her and will always read anything she comes out with. In saying all of that, this one was a bit different then Im used to and borders outside of what I normally choose to read, which is why this one will not be my favorite by this author.

It was still beautifully written as I’ve become used to and if I read more fantasy I would probably be doing back flips about this book, but I don’t, so not being able to connect to this story or these characters was simply a personal choice and in no way reflects on this author and her talent with writing, which is why I still rate this 5 stars,.

It was a fast moving story and had some suspense and twists which I did enjoy and I can’t wait for her next book as no matter what I will have it 🙂

Definitely recommend for those fantasy readers out there.

How is this my first book by this author?? An author who had me like completely hooked from page 1 of this book. There was a time while reading I was tripping over the words I was reading so fast, I wasn’t skimming because you can’t while reading this and you don’t want to..it was quite a struggle there for a bit and I felt in some ways like I was literally in the story, like right next to Prudence, who by the way became my hero in this book. I don’t care how old she was, I wanted to be her! Well, her in every way except for her health struggles.

This was an Awesomely brilliant story, I loved every word and even all the unanswered questions that Im left with because it gives me something to look forward to in the next of this series. There were a few lines in this book that I loved but the one Id never heard before that literally cracked me up was “as dumb as chewing gum while eating oreos” Not sure why that got to me so much but it did and Ive used it now in my real life a few times LOL

I haven’t even mentioned Cassius yet…I love this odd boy, I just want to hug him and squeeze him and protect him forever. I can not wait for more, truly I will be straight up stalking this author!!!

One of my favorite reads so far this year!

I went way out of my comfort zone on this book. It was recommended when I mentioned I needed something different. This was definitely different for me. I don’t read sci fi and I’m not a huge fan of YA, but in saying all of that I did enjoy many parts of this story. I definitely had no questions regarding the characters as they were well described and had the depth you need to truly understand. The surroundings and times I could almost visualize with the descriptive words used. There was definitely a uniqueness to the storyline which I completely appreciated.

In saying all of that, this book was a bit long and drawn out for me. I’m not crazy about reading a book I find myself having to skip through especially when an author works so hard to give me the words to read, but I did skip quite a bit, it felt very wordy in many places and I might be exaggerating a bit but it almost feels like half the page count could have been eliminated. Okay, maybe not that much but it did leave me with that feeling.

Again..in saying all of that I will be reading the next in this series as there was enough of a cliffhanger to have me craving more, and although this story did not change my choice of not reading this genre it is quite possible that the next in the series will.

Definitely do recommend for anyone that loves a good NA SciFi romance novel without too much of the romance.

Its official, this is my favorite of the Jaded Lily Series, not sure why but it had a lot of moving parts and each one had a lot of meaning. I’m so scared Im going to give too much away in this review because I loved every part of it.

Milo and Juniper’s first meeting in this book goes down as one of my favorite first meetings and the why was so completely awesome!

My other favorite scene was when Kerry first met Juniper…I was actually laughing out loud at Kerry’s rant.

This story dealt with many things, one being opposites definitely attract and that was done perfectly but one of the things that meant the most to me was Junipers cause. I felt like I was right there watching all of that play out and then the family aspect which affected Milo.

I have to stop as far as the storyline it will be too easy to post a spoiler if I’m not careful..I simply adored this book, it was a quick read packed full of non cluttering content and I can’t wait to read it again, as a matter of fact, I can’t wait to read all of them again.

This author is firmly placed on my one click no matter what list and I can not wait for more.

Many thanks to Miss Jameson for transporting me into Juniper and Milo’s world for a time, it was awesome!!

Oh my goodness I love this series so so much..Everything about it and I have been waiting to read this book for awhile and it was well worth the wait.

I loved the beginning to Lexy’s story when I read it in the earlier books and it felt like coming home when I opened this book. It was so much fun reading about Grayson and Lexy, it’s not often you find a female lead that’s as independent and strong and alpha as the lead male character. I would normally not like this as I love the male being the alpha but these two were so awesome and this author wrote this in a way you can not help but fall in love with the whole storyline. It was full of suspense, action, little twists and turns placed perfectly and there were a few pages that truly had me laughing out loud…Poor Sir LOL

I loved the rest of the brothers being in the mix as well as Luigi and Uncle Louie and am fully invested in all of them and can not wait for more. I think one of the many reasons I love this whole series is the family aspect that is so important to everyone in these books. Mom Riggs absolutely cracks me up and I could completely identify with her for some reason…

Omg the last part of this book had me not being able to read fast enough and then all the little openings to future stories you can see playing out. I love this author’s style and can not wait to read more. I think the one I’m most looking forward to is still Hawkins, he is a mystery I can’t wait to see solved.

Loved it and I don’t recommend reading any of these books out of order…Read all of them you will not be sorry!

This was a super quick read and my first read by both of these authors, I completely enjoyed the whole story and if I didn’t know there were more books to read after this one I would have been sincerely upset with that ending but thankfully there is more to come.

I’m just beginning to read more paranormal fantasy type reads and although I did enjoy this, it moved quite fast and I didn’t have enough time to connect completely to these characters and really get a grasp on the whole shifter pet aspect. I am truly looking forward to reading more because my interest is definitely peaked and the writing styles of these authors was amazing.

I do recommend this especially to fantasy fans and can’t wait for the next.

This was definitely my favorite of the series which is kind of strange since I’m not a fan of the rockstar career books but this author definitely had me hooked and I would say that it is because I have read the first 2 in the Moore Family Saga and was completely invested, which is why I recommend reading them all in order.

I loved the storyline and that it was when Miles grew up and the addition of Belle into the story and the perfectly placed twists were awesome. I definitely see me reading this series again in the future and can not believe that this author doesn’t have a ton of books as it feels as if she is a seasoned author and I can’t wait to see what is to come.

Good Lord where are the ratings past 5 Stars

Really???!!!

***Throwing up the white flag***

I give up, every single time I think this author can not write a better book then the last one of hers I finished she goes and writes another one, and tackles yet another topic which I can’t even come close to imagining and by the end makes it all seem normal. Thriple? Really?? My favorite word of the week.

There was one point at about 3⁄4’s of the way through that my heart was racing so fast, I couldn’t read fast enough and I was speed walking with Athena yelling You Go Girl!!

I can’t even …this was such an amazing read…I smiled, I shook my head, I was angry, I was flustered, I was in love, I was running around trying to find things to fan myself with…I worked really hard reading this story and I’m wore slap out yet I want to read it all again…

I’m not even going to go into any of the storyline, just know that this is absolutely one of my favorite books so far this year and definitely in the group of my favorites of all time. The writing is perfection and as I learned early on I go into all of this authors books with an open mind and somehow she takes all kinds of topics that I don’t choose to read and has taught me that there is a whole lot more normal then I had ever thought possible and I have built up such a trust in her writing that I know that things I don’t read will always be handled beautifully when I pick up her books. It’s hard to explain and I dont have the words which is why I’m the reader and she’s the author.

Blood Relations (The Sorrel Janes Mysteries) by Lonna Enox

5 Stars

I read this in one sitting and was so totally invested that real life just paused while I read. I loved The Last Dance which was my first introduction to this author and this one solidified my adding her to my one click list and being a forever fan.

So this book picks up just a bit after The Last Dance, Sorrel has become one of my favorite characters and I truly want her as my friend 🙂 Chris makes me want to slap him as hard as Sorrel does most of the time. I love her love/hate relationship with him and their back and forth is completely awesome. I also love that the author keeps us guessing about those two.

The storyline of this book had me a mess through most of it, I was guessing a lot and was usually proved wrong and I was as confused as Chris and Sorrel were. This one had a lot going on and had a lot of moving parts at all times and those are the kind of books I can not put down. There were a lot of emotions throughout and I recommend highly reading the first book before this one as it follows the story of these characters.

I can not wait to see where she takes this story next and can already tell I’ll be rereading these in the future.

LOVED IT!!!

So not sure where to start with this review, going to try really hard to express my feelings in an understandable way. Let me begin with I chose this book because of the author, an author I absolutely love and I have read the majority of her books and do plan on reading them all as I can.

This one was a quick read for me because I had to skim parts because they involved scenes I just can not read..a genre I do not read except when written by a handful of my favorite authors and India Kells is on that list. Thankfully skipping these scenes did not take away from the awesome storyline, the kind of storyline I have come to expect when reading anything from this author. The character development was complete and I connected quick with each of them and I truly believe this storyline would have been just as satisfying without the addition of the parts I skipped. That’s just my personal take on it and I’m sure many would love all of it and that’s totally awesome.

The scenes I did read were off the charts hot and on fire and I love the way this whole story played out and Locke stole my heart very early on and no matter what he tried to portray I was on to him quite early 🙂 I would truly love to learn more about Gage and hope that somewhere in books to come we get his story. I will read more of this series because of who is writing them and I highly recommend this book no matter what genre you read or don’t read.

Writing reviews for this author has become seriously impossible because I’m running out of things to say that I haven’t already said in all my previous reviews of her books, but I’m going to give this a shot.

I truly did love this story and its been awhile since I’ve been immersed in this series so I’m only going on how I feel right this second and what I feel right this second is I think this might be my favorite of all of them. This one took me on a journey aside from the storyline..a journey first off that I could picture while looking out the windows of the RV and secondly this story again brought my own hometown of Hayward to life for me, a place I grew up, went to school and met my husband so for that alone I give many many thanks to this author..I’ve said before that reading anything by this author is like coming home and this one hit that thought completely out of the ballpark!! Who knew my little town of 1700ish people could someday be in some of my favorite books!

So anyway…about the storyline of this book LOL I loved it and the little twists at the end made it perfection for me. I know when I open a book by this author to be ready to finish it, it never fails. You could read this as a standalone but I promise you, you absolutely want all of these books, I can not wait to read them all again back to back.

This is my first book by this author and although I seriously enjoyed it, it took me a bit to get in to it, and there were parts I had to go back and reread because at times it was hard to follow or a bit wordy.

This was about 2 young girls that started out as friends and then became sisters and their journey through foster care into adulthood. The storyline was amazing and the attention to detail was done perfectly. Living the same story through two different perspectives was unique and I did by the middle of the story find myself completely invested and I could not put the book down.

I loved the bond between Madigan and Grace and watching them both deal with life in their own ways was awesome. I love crime stories and I love trying to figure it all out with them and I will say this one totally threw me, and that’s what makes me love reading this genre.

I highly recommend this story and I can’t wait for more from this author.

It has been awhile since I read the 1st in this series, which I loved by the way and it says a lot about an author in my opinion when I pick another book up down the road after reading a trillion in between and the whole first comes back to me immediately..The characters from the first book weave through this one and we met the mains of this one in the first book. I’m not normally a fan of books running alongside each other in some parts but in this one it definitely worked.

What can I say about Luca? I fell head over heels for him and my heart completely shattered for him, I loved getting to know him as he fascinated me in the first book. I love his friendship with Padraig and his connection with Kerry was off the charts hot and completely awesome. This is probably the 2nd or 3rd book I’ve read where the whole story is told from the lead male’s perspective and I loved it!!

This author transported me into this story and I could see everything described, Luca was an artist and I swear I could see and feel all that he did. It was awesome!

You could probably read this as a standalone but I am so glad I didn’t and I can not wait for the next story in this series.

Amazingly Awesome!!

I wish I could explain why I love this authors writing so much but I can’t find the words…For the record I do not usually read books like this but this author has converted me and I just can’t get enough. This like all the others was a super fast read and no matter how slow I try to take it I literally can not put down the constant action and connection I have with these characters.

I felt deep within all of the feelings our Blackbird was feeling throughout this story and I want so much more…At the end of this one I literally yelled out loud NOOOO not yet, but it left me with hope that there will be more, it wasn’t a cliff hanger per say but when you have read all of these and get to this point it feels like one nonetheless.

I don’t know if this was my favorite so far because I’ve loved each one equally and can not wait to stick them all back to back and read them all over again!

Please please give us more of Blackbird and I still want more of Halo as well…**fingers crossed**

Loved it and can’t recommend reading this series enough…Read them in order…You wont get this book in the way you need to if you don’t know the whole story!

I’ve been looking forward to this story for awhile, ever since I first read about Barbara Knollman I knew there was more to her than what was being portrayed.

This part of the series has now become my favorite so far and I want to make sure I mention that yes you could read these all as standalones but don’t..Seriously there is an ongoing story going on here and this one has me wanting the next one more than any of the others did.

I love how this author writes her stories and she has now sold me on a genre that I don’t normally choose. I’m not going to give away any of the details in this review, just read it. It moves quickly and I read it in one sitting and was seriously sad that I don’t have the next part in my hands yet.

Loved it and can not wait for more from not only this series but from this author.

…and she did it again!!!

OMG I loved this book and I love love love that this author gave us this part of the story..I have loved every single part of the Twisted Hearts series and this addition was beyond amazing.

Autumn Sand is absolutely in my top 5 list of absolute must read 1 clicks and the twists that happened in this story were perfect and had me on the edge of my seat the entire read. This was a one sitting devour and I’m actually ready I believe to start from the beginning and read all of these over again back to back!

I didn’t realize how much I needed Tallie’s story until I started reading it, and El had me all kinds of messed up, like him? Love him? Hate him? Trust Him?? What a ride that was and Tallie’s history also had me all kinds of a mess. This author has a way of forming her words and transporting me right into the story and wanting so so much more and if I could hope for just one thing I would absolutely love to read at least one more story and that one would be Chicken’s. He totally fascinates me and his would be the topping on the cake.

I guess this could be read as a stand alone, but I would not recommend that, there is too much in the previous books and not to mention they are just brilliant reads.

Highly recommend!!

I had no idea what to expect when I picked up this book but the cover and synopsis drew me in and then while reading it had me hooked and I literally read this in one sitting.

It was quick, easy to read because the words flowed perfectly, clean, suspenseful, fun, and was just what I was looking for at the time. I am impressed with how this book was written, I loved everything about it and actually am figuring out how many copies I need to buy for a few of my grandchildren who I believe would love this as much as I did.

I fell in love with Gumshoe and can not wait to read more of this series. Mia was awesome and not your normal 15 year old, and I loved the ladies …Eve (Mia’s Mom), Donna, Marion, and Kelly…This was just an all around great book and I can’t recommend it enough especially if you like a good mystery.

Was so looking forward to the continuation of this series…I love Cade and Lecia and now we add Miles to the mix and a whole lot more family interaction. I love family bonds in my story and this had it in spades.

The heat and strong connection between Cade and Lecia continued in this story, I love the real that is portrayed in this book through this author’s words. These two aren’t perfect, they struggle and they argue and this all feels so so real.

There’s a lot going on in this story and when Cade and Lecia find out that their 7 year old son has a rare disease and also some pretty out there abilities the search is on to try to find him help. On top of all that is going on there is also another side of Miles that is somewhat dark.

This relationship is put to the test in this book, can they work together and stay strong together for their son and what does all of this mean for the successful career that Cade has worked so hard for?

I can not wait for the next book in this series. This is my second read by this author and I’m sincerely enjoying every minute spent reading her words.

Will definitely be following her from this point on.

I sincerely don’t have time to write this review because I have to go one click the next in this series like 10 minutes ago. I don’t even have words to describe how much I loved this book …I can honestly say though that it is my favorite book in this genre to date!!!!!

I loved every single thing about this story, the characters who I got so invested in that I feel like I know them, the surroundings..I have those all pictured in my mind right down to the feel of the material on the booth seats, I can even see the position of the garage in the alley where the Z4 and the Buick are parked. It was like I closed my eyes while reading and was watching this play out as a movie.

When I’ve said in the past I couldn’t put a book down I truly always mean it…but this one I not only couldn’t put it down I could not even move outside of this book. This author has an amazing talent in putting all of his words together and totally hijacking his readers, or at least thats what happened to me.

I absolutely can not wait to see what comes next for Johnny, Mike, and Katie.

Amazingly Awesome Story…Read it, You will not be sorry I promise!

5 Stars

Trying to figure out why this is my first book by this author, and deciding that I need to check out what else she has.

This was totally awesome…I’ve read some pretty heavy twisting and turning kind of books lately and when I saw this I had to have it. Picking this book up was one of the best things I’ve done reading wise in a while. It was completely perfect for what I needed. Fun, light, and it had a perfect flow that made it so easy to read in a little under 2 hours.

I love so many things about this book but I think the laws were my favorite especially when they had edits LOL Aiko was completely awesome and I could completely relate to her for some reason, I guess because in a lot of ways I’m a hot mess most of the time and just fell in love with her. So much of her past made me laugh and since this is a series I’m praying she is the star that we are following through this series but her sisters also fascinate me so I wouldn’t be too heartbroken if they got their stories told as well.

I’ll admit the end kind of made me tear up..The whole not remembering after the tether was gone was sad but the ending was still perfection and I can’t recommend this book enough.

Give it a shot, you won’t be sorry!

….and just like that she did it again….

I have read both of the series before this one and absolutely loved them, this one comes out of the gate with a bang and had me totally hooked just like the rest immediately. I love the direction this series has taken and love even more that we get to see the other side of things a bit as well as some of our returning favorite people from the earlier books. Many thanks to this author for giving us more 🙂

I loved this one and the fact the main character has the same first name as my hubby was kind of fun, that’s the first time that has happened in the trillion books I’ve read and I loved it.

I’ll be honest I wasn’t sure about Sasha at first and a lot of that might be carry over but it didn’t take long for me to get an understanding with who she was and I adored the interaction between her and Jay and their connection was evident early on even if they didn’t know it.

This series I think might jump to the top real quick, I really love how this is going and can not wait to see who is up next.

Once again..Simply Awesome! If you haven’t read anything by this author yet you could start here I suppose but I recommend going back to the start with the Prestian Series…They are all amazing!!!

I was really looking forward to reading this book, First because it is a new author to me, 2nd the synopsis had me curious and 3rd the cover was awesome! I was definitely not disappointed and it lived up to what I was hoping for throughout the entire story.

The storyline was unique and had me guessing from the first chapter. I was even choosing because each brother won me over at one point in time or another and this author did such a great job leading you down the wrong path just to swerve and head back. I loved all the characters in this story, many times I felt like I was right there among many of them. I read this in one sitting and found myself laughing out loud at times and then very sad at times.

She comes home, all grown up and she has her sights set on one of the brothers, the brothers that vowed never to cross that line with her. You have to read as she weaves her way through this story and if you’re anything like me you will need some kleenex throughout.

Wonderful story and I can not wait for more from this new to me author..

Amazing 🙂

Kingdom of War (Kingdom Journals Volume 4) by Tricia Copeland

4 Stars

This is not my first book by this author and because I have loved other books I decided to give this one a try. I’m not a paranormal fan and really wish I was but in saying that, this book was written very well as I have come to expect from this author.

This absolutely can be read as a standalone yet for paranormal lovers this book which is part 4 would definitely benefit had the previous stories been read.

It took me a bit to finish this book and that is not because of the writing but only because it just did not hold my interest which goes back to the I don’t normally choose Paranormal stories. I did find the character development done very well and really liked and understood Hunter, there was quite a lot of inner dialogue which helped understand his struggles.

There were some twists that were placed perfectly and even gave me and unpredictable ending, which I completely appreciated.

If you love the paranormal genre this is probably one of the best, I will keep coming back for more as I truly love this authors writing.

This is not my first book by this author and will definitely not be my last. Although this wasn’t my favorite of those I’ve read it was still written in the way I have come to enjoy by this author.

I’m not usually drawn to the sports genre and then throw in cricket and I was totally lost on that part so just concentrated on the characters. I really enjoyed reading about Mathew and Rose and there were some parts that seemed kind of predictable and then there were parts that broke my heart.

I will definitely be looking for more from this author and do highly recommend this book especially to those that like the sports kind of atmosphere. Its a quick read and flows smoothly.
