This was a fun super quick and holy hot read!! I absolutely loved the dialogue between these characters and how the relationships progressed through the story. Gabby and Christian might just be up in my favorite couples list and I would actually love to read more about them.
I read it in one sitting and was actually sad that it ended.
This is my second book by this author and I have loved them both. I love the style and easy flow and highly recommend checking out anything and everything this author has out.

I sincerely enjoyed this story. This is my first read by Thia Finn and now I’m left asking myself Why? She was able to take a book about a rockstar and make me love it. I really don’t like rockstar romances..that is until this book.
From the character development to the dialogue with the characters I was pulled in immediately and found myself not being able to put the book down. The way the story flowed made it also go faster than I expected and before I knew it I was done. She writes in a way that makes you think you know what’s going to happen and you even keep waiting for it to happen and in the meantime it goes a totally different way. That’s my favorite part about reading!
I loved the friendships in this story and the family aspects as well. I am so hoping there is a book about Adam…seems there is a story there and I’m pretty sure all in the band have stories to tell and I will be reading them all if this author blesses us with them.
I highly recommend reading this book, for me I love finding new authors especially when I find one I can’t wait to read more from.

I’ll start with how excited I was to grab this book, I will read anything and everything this author writes, and holy moly did she write this one… I live in my safe little world not totally ignorant because I know stuff happens out there that I just can’t wrap my head around, but this story totally blew my mind. This gave me a whole different perspective that I’d never truly even thought about.
I read this literally in under an hour, and I have to appreciate that this couldn’t have been an easy story to write but was done beautifully. This had my emotions all messed up and I sat and thought for a bit after I was finished and still really dont have the words needed to do this story justice.

Mountains Climbed (Mountains Series #2) by Phoebe Alexander
5 ++++++ Stars
Oh Dear Lord this author is trying to kill me! I can not even with her right now!
One thing I wanted more than anything after reading the first of this series was to be able to hear from James and Oh My Word I got that in this part…I can not even imagine his struggle, the back and forth that was twisting his thoughts and emotions therefore twisting mine.
Then Sarah, Oh My Heart! While reading both of these books but especially this one her feelings jumped right off the pages and planted themselves in my heart…
I felt completely exhausted after reading this yet was so so ready to jump into the next one, which for the record I DON’T HAVE YET and I seriously don’t think I will make it through the wait! All of the characters in this continuing story have completely won me over, and since I know that this is loosely based on a true story it has helped me to transport into and feel like I was present for much of the book. Rachel stands for everything I’ve always wanted in a best friend and I love watching Abby grow up, I raised 4 girls and everything between Abby and Sarah felt so real.
Not going to comment specifically on any parts of this story because this being the second part and being an ongoing story I don’t want to ruin anything from the first. I will though comment on how awesome it was to meet Garrett, again and have the background I so needed while reading his story. I now want to read that one again and will!
I need the next one NOW, my emotions are all over the place and I can feel that that isn’t going to change when I have the next in my hands. So many things are still up in the air and I can not wait to see how they all play out.
Start at the beginning…A total must in my opinion…

Brutal & Raw: Mafia Romance & Psychological Thriller (Beneventi Family Book 1) by Sonya Jesus
5 ++++++++ Stars
Oh my word!! WOW!! Not sure where to start with this review….
This is my second book by this author and I’m completely blown away, like sitting here trying to figure out what I just read. I have to confess that when I was at the very beginning I was a bit worried because I was more than a little confused as to what was happening, but that lasted about 5 minutes and then I was so fully immersed in this story that putting it down physically hurt…then at 5% left I closed the book and immediately went to see if the second was out yet because I was scared to death to finish it, I didn’t want to finish it! In looking for the second (which to my sadness is not out yet) I found the novella that came out last year..I quickly purchased that and will be starting that the second I’m done with this review.
No book I’ve ever read has matched a title more than this book! My mind is still all jacked up, there are so many moving parts of this story that take your emotions, squeezes the life out of them then twists them up and has you questioning so many things about how you feel about certain characters in this book. Then add in the twists and turns that have you spinning like a top and I’m telling you right now I feel completely raw.
I’m not even going to attempt to sum up this storyline…the author’s blurb is enough. I am going to attempt to convince anyone that loves to read to buy this book. I’d say buy the novella and this one even if I haven’t read the novella yet, I knew without a doubt I had to have it. Some of the content of this story was completely cringe worthy but that didn’t stop me from becoming completely invested in these characters.
I will be the first in line to buy the next book and will be stalking or I mean following this author everywhere waiting for news on the next!
As I mentioned above..Completely blown away with this authors writing style and the way she made me feel the emotions described.

Moonlit Mirage: A Cook Islands Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley
5 Stars
So after reading Covert Threat and the little snippet at the end about finding out what Hannah was up to I had to grab this book. This is kind of a part of The Gray Ghost series with a few of the characters crossing over, this was a super quick read that was full of all kinds of content, leaving out all the extra info that is normally a part of longer stories, yet still contained everything you expect when reading anything by this author. It jumped right in (lol you’ll understand why that was kinda funny when you read it) and had me on the edge of my seat right from the get go. Completely curious where this newer series will go, not sure if it will still be part of The Gray Ghost or what this author has in mind but I’m completely ready to find out because I love this all taking place in The Cook Islands, I could almost visualize everything that was mentioned in this story.
Covert Threat (A Gray Ghost Novel, book 5) by Amy McKinley
5 +++++ Stars
MY FAVORITE SO FAR!! I love this whole series, but I have to say this one had me totally invested from the very first page. Jules and Trev were completely and utterly awesome characters. I loved their dialogue and I must say the twists and turns in this story were placed in the best spots to have me totally questioning everything I thought was going on. A few things I had suspected along the way but not in the exact way this author took them.
I love everyone with Gray Ghost, Hannah still frightens me a little bit LOL but she’s totally awesome. This author writes some of the best suspense filled with Danger, edge of your seat, emotional stories with some great romance thrown in. An auto one click for me!
Not going into the storyline which was simply out of this world, but will say…Read this whole series, it sits up in my favorites, that list of books I can not wait to read again back to back.

Taming Zane (Almost Perfect Series Book 2) by Lisa Lanay
5 +++++ Stars
Loved this so so much!! I think the only thing I’m upset about is I don’t know who is getting the next book and it’s driving me crazy LOL
I love this series, I love how this author can make you believe these could be predictable kind of stories (which I love also) but then actually has you believing that there’s no way to fix the hurdles between these characters and there will be no happily ever after. I love that things happen in these stories that feel so real. I was actually feeling the anxiety that Shannon was feeling at the start of this book, being in a strange city, knowing no one and needing help would have broken me. Not sure I would have had the guts to make the phone call she made, but so thankful she did because it was the start of one of the best stories, I cracked up during the kitchen scene at the beginning..That would have so been me!
I loved Shannon’s family dynamic, it made me smile and LOL more than once and it was so awesome to check back in with Jake and Kimberly. I can not pick a favorite of the two books so far..I enjoyed both of them equally and can’t wait for more. I love how smoothly these books flow and before I knew it I was done, left wanting so much more. I can definitely see myself reading these again.

Landing the Lawman (Hills of Texas #5) by Kadie Scott
5 Stars
I have loved all of this series, and when I started this one I was a little worried because it took me a bit longer to get in to it, but as it moved I found myself not being able to put it down. It was awesome to finally get Carters story and I loved her spunk and feisty attitude, which she seriously needed with Mr. all business Logan.
I pretty much knew what would happen, but how this writer took me there was a fun ride. I loved the family dynamic as usual, this is what has made me love this series the most.
I can’t wait for more from this author, I love her writing style, it’s always a smooth flow and before you know it your done. This was a fun book and I highly recommend it. It can absolutely be read as a stand alone but I recommend following this family from the beginning.

Mountains Wanted (Mountains Series #1) by Phoebe Alexander
5 +++++++ Stars
3 Days!! Thats how long from today I have to wait for the next book in this series..Three Brutally horrific days. I just can not even with this book.. I actually can not even figure out how to write this review. Not sure what words are left out there for how I feel about this author.
I have to say that this story was 99.99999999999% perfect, whatever percentage is left in that number is solely based on the fact that I have never wanted inside a man’s mind more than I wanted in this one. I’ve read a million books in my life and many are from just one POV and that’s ok and awesome, but this one for some reason I just needed to know what he was thinking. He felt like such a mystery to me. If I wanted anything more from this story that would have been it.
This author never ceases to amaze me by opening my mind to things I don’t understand and I’ve said this in many of my reviews of her books that she can take circumstances or lifestyles that I don’t understand and makes it all seem like I live under a rock LOL
This story was so full of emotion and I felt it deep, I also feel like I won’t make it to the release of the next one…I have to have the second one now!!
Not giving anything away so will play it safe and not go into the storyline itself, I will say though that this is a must read, and be prepared to curl up and ignore that thing called adulting because you will not want to put this down!

THE RUNAROUND: A Single Dad Romantic Comedy (CAROLINA CONNECTIONS BOOK 6) By SYLVIE STEWART
5 Stars
What a perfect title for this book LOL I don’t know if Ive ever wanted to slap 2 people more than the two in this book. They made me laugh, they absolutely ticked me off, and I fell in love with both of them. This author never disappoints, I know as soon as I pick up one of her books that I need to be ready because you never know what will happen next, or what will make you crack up next.
This was an awesome story made even better with the friends and families, it’s been a long time since I read book 5 and I was a bit fuzzy on some of the characters but a lot of it came back and what didn’t, didn’t matter it was still simply amazing!
You can read this as a stand alone with no problem, but trust me when I say the books that come before it are worth every second of your time.
OMG some of the conversations in this book, and the pet names for lack of a better word literally had me dying..
I can not wait for more from all of these characters and after reading this I want to go back now and read the others all over again!

WOW!! I loved the first book of this series but I think this one was even better, I have become so emotionally invested in all of these people …I’m not normally a huge dystopian fan, and also not a huge YA fan, but let me tell you if taking YA and dystopian and throwing them together gives me this? Im sold. Throw in some awesome clean romance and I’m done.
Not sure how to explain this author’s style of writing except smooth and with feeling because I felt it all. I’ve even got the whole picture of their room, the park, everything described in this story I saw it clear in my mind. I was literally transported into the story. It was awesome!
Neve and Micah might just be 2 of my favorite characters ever. They were both just so sincere…I just can’t say enough about this whole book. Simply amazing! You truly have no idea what is going to happen or why from one page to another and I could not put it down!
This is a continuing storyline, although it may be possible to read this as a stand alone i do not recommend it and it’s so good you won’t be sorry reading them in order. It does not end in a holy moly throw your kindle kind of way, but does end where you feel like you wont make it till the next is released. Not sure what is in store for Neve and Micah but I know I’ll be one of the first in line to find out!!

The Sister Pact: Home is Where The Heart is by Jacquie Biggar
5 Stars
Not sure why but this is my first book by this author and I loved it. I love a break sometimes from the heavy drama and the too hot scenes, not that I don’t love those too but this story was refreshing while still being very emotional, and I enjoyed every single word. I love this author’s style of writing, very smooth and easy to read.
I have 4 daughters, and although I’ve never dealt with this sort of conflict described in this story I’ve seen many others play out over the years and this book felt so real. The conversations felt real, the feelings were described in a way that made me feel them. I seem to gravitate toward the deep family stories lately and the emotions that go with them, this was an amazingly written book and as I said above, not sure why this is my first read by this author, but I can guarantee I have already looked at what else is available and my tbr has grown and I’ll be watching for any and everything from this point on.
Thank you Miss Biggar for keeping it real and allowing me to connect with the characters in this book!

Ink’s Devil (Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #5) by Manda Mellett
5 Amazing Stars
Well, she did it again. I am completely out of words when it comes to reviewing Manda Mellett’s books..What more can I say that I haven’t already? She’s amazing, she’s awesome, she keeps every book fresh and unique, no 2 are ever alike, and every time I finish one I want to start all over and read ALL of them again and immediately go and check all her pages to see when I’ll have the next one in my hands.
Oh and every one of them makes me react with…This one was my favorite! Seriously though this one had me all messed up…I wanted to crawl inside the book and run back and forth making sure everyone had their stories straight, I was so scared of what might happen. I was so torn with how the club acted in some parts of this book, on the one hand I hated them but then on the other I totally understood because they didn’t know the whole story and since I did I wanted again to jump in the book and make things all better.
I loved Mace in this story, did he anger me, Yes, but I felt his loyalty and understood him so much better. I also loved his POV being a major part of Ink and Beth’s story, that was done beautifully.
I am completely invested in this whole Satan’s Devils MC story, all of them and can not wait for every book there is to come…I will someday sit down and read all of them again, all the way back to Turning Wheels, and would love to have them all sitting on my bookshelf where all my other favorites live.
No clues on who is next but I tend to believe it’s maybe Mace? Could be Liz, but I’m thinking it would be awesome for Dirt to get his story told, he has a story to tell, I can feel it and it would be awesome to move into a hangaround’s story and see that side especially since he played a huge part in this one.
Doesn’t matter though, I’ll have whoever it is the minute I possible can 🙂

BELOVED (21st Century Courtesan Book #3) by Pamela DuMond
5 Out of This World Stars
Good Lord I just dont know…Im a mess right now after finishing this book…my mind is whirling and Im so so confused…Im going to need time to think about all of this and come to some sort of conclusion…I feel like Evie right now and all her voices are talking to me and I just do not know!
This story from book 1 till now just keeps pulling me in so many directions and I feel like I need to calm down and read them all again, they are that good and maybe since I read them so fast on my first time through I could take my time and savor every word and then MAYBE have some clue as to what the heck is going on LOL
I have been Team Dylan for so long and have been mad at Evie so many times through this series I cant even tell you, mad like a loving sister that just wants the best for her, but now I just don’t know, I don’t know who to trust, I feel like now nothing is as it seems and I feel like if I don’t get the next book soon I simply will not make it!
I’m not going into any more details about this story, these three books are a non stop continuous story, please don’t read them out of order..I can not imagine that working at all. Do read them all though they are masterfully written and I can just picture this author sitting at her computer sipping her favorite beverage with the biggest evil grin on her face hitting that last word on each of these books saying..Oh yes..that will do nicely!
This part of the story might be my favorite so far, but the whole series is complete and utter perfection. I love this author and shes hit that point where I really don’t care what she writes it will be an auto one click for me!!

A Sun So Bright (Reigning Hearts Book Three) by KG Fletcher
5 +++++++++ ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️
Oh my Lord!!! This author! I just can’t …I have wondered since book 1 how this author would handle this character. I was scared because Fiona is complicated to say the least, and didn’t leave me with much love for her after reading Run to the Sea.
It didn’t take me long to feel sincerely sorry for this poor little rich girl who had been handed everything she ever wanted her whole life, her sole purpose was keeping up that persona especially around her friends, friends that had found their significant others while she was always party of one. When she concocts a plan to hire a companion you just know that this is not going to end well, especially when the one she hires is her complete opposite.
I’ve loved the first two books in this series, I mean really loved which is why I can’t stress enough that you read them all, but this one, completely blew me away! The whole book builds up to the most amazing last 25% of a book I’ve ever read! I mean..take your breath away kind of build up. So emotional and simply perfect!
I don’t see any news of another book and I was so hoping that Nicky would get her own and we could learn even more about Cold Creek…I could visualize it all and I want the library in Stone Farm. Please please give us more, don’t let it end here 🙁

Scoring Chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin
5 +++++++ stars
First time author for me and HOLY COW I loved this book…read it in a very short time in one sitting and found I couldn’t read it fast enough. It was a constantly moving story and by that I mean there was no added fluff that was unneeded while reading. I love this style of writing where every word just flowed perfectly and smoothly.
I fell head over heels in love with Rhett and Eden, both broken yet both with strength they didn’t even know they had. I loved how Rhett handled everything about Eden, and I loved even more when his alpha side would come out. This is my first book also in this series and I will have them all because I also loved the other characters in this book. My favorite I think being Robin and all that she stood for in Edens life.
This book will hit you in all the feels… I laughed and there was one particular part that took my breath away, and I had some tears.
This is an amazing story and not only will I read the rest of this series but I will definitely be reading more from this author!

The Istanbul Conspiracy (Code Raven Book 7) by Lynda Filler
5 +++++ Stars
WOW!! The second I finished this story I immediately went to find the next in the series and wouldn’t you know its not available yet 🙁
I am so in love with this series I cant even stress that enough. This was an edge of your seat kind of story. I started it and did not put it down until I finished, my head was throbbing because I was reading so fast, I couldn’t stop myself. There is a lot of moving parts in this book and I loved how each chapter let me know where I was and that told me who I was with.
Get ready because this book starts out with high energy and never lets go. I love this team..Luke and Samaar are right up in the top of my favorite book couples ever, and I was thoroughly invested in the new characters that were introduced and so glad that so many of my instincts were right with these people. The twists that kept making my jaw drop were placed so perfectly making sure the reader had no clue they were coming, and our little Alice is growing up, I love how she is taking after her momma yet holding on to so much of her normal childhood spirit. Her part in this whole story was written perfectly!
The ending!!! Pieces started falling into place for me and I had to stop and think about them before I read on making whatever wait time I have till the next book almost unbearable. Ive decided to do a complete reread of this entire series timed perfectly for the next release. There is no way I can recommend reading this as a standalone, you absolutely must one click this entire series..It is Incredible!

5 +++++ Stars
I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this book, and I was not disappointed. I don’t even know where to begin with this review. I’ll start with what I’ve said all along about this series, I love these people, I love this MC which is so unique, different than any MC series I have ever read.
I do wish I had gone back and either reread Written in The Stars or refreshed my memory or had made notes on my review because it took me quite a bit to remember everything. I know I was waiting on an answer from the end of #2 and I still don’t know if I got that answer, so that leads me to making it very clear you MUST read these in order, this is a continuing story and isn’t just about the Fallen Eagles MC, it focusses on these people, these awesome, broken, amazing people! There are parts of this book that had me rolling with laughter, there are parts that had me so angry I could scream, there were parts that tore my heart out, this author hit every emotion possible.
This one as of this second is my favorite so far…My feelings were all over the map and I’m not even kidding when I say I connected so strongly with this whole story. My heart cracked more than once and I had to put the kindle down because I couldn’t see through the tears. I love how this author didn’t skim over certain issues in this book…She brought all of these characters to life and told the great parts, the funny parts, the sad parts, and the self destruction parts, she didn’t hold back and more than once I felt like I knew these people. The Family aspect of this story …sigh…. Was out of this world, not just the real family but the MC family as well.
I can not recommend this series high enough, it was already one of my favorites and this installment just solidified that. I can not explain how Im looking forward to the next, I have a feeling that story is going to destroy me, I’ve already planned a reread of this whole series before that one comes out.

The Fat Girl’s Guide to Loving Your Body by K.L. Montgomery
5 ++++++++ STARS
I just don’t feel right rating this book using stars…It deserves so much more than a few stars. I started this book thinking ok it’s getting close to supper time, I’ll go ahead and start it then pick it back up later. Well that did not happen. Hubby got leftovers which he even had to warm up himself and I read this book in a little over 2 hours. I then sat and stared for another half hour until hubby asked if I was ok.
I can not even put into words how this touched me, like I mean straight in the heart, it’s like she crawled in my head and stayed there for the last 30-odd years taking every thought and feeling I’ve experienced. I’ve since bought one copy for one daughter and was telling another daughter that I was going to buy it for her and she ordered it while we spoke. Next up…Buy the paperback, I want to go back and follow every instruction given and start the journaling I’ve wanted to start for years and didn’t know where to begin, KL Montgomery has given me that direction.
I changed my lifestyle almost 5 years ago and have literally lived it since, just wanted to eat healthy and get rid of preservatives and such, the side effect of that was losing over 100 lbs and have kept it off within 10lbs or so. It still never occurred to me to love my body, you can change your physical lifestyle all day long but the feelings inside are habits that are hard to break and this guide has made me look at things in a whole different light.
I love this Author, she has written 2 of my favorite books ever and now I can say that that number has risen to 3..
Thank you for waking me up, making me smile, making me giggle a few times, making me cry, making me look at myself differently, and allowing me to get to know you.
So I gave this book 5 stars because that’s how we rate on our reviews but as I said, this book deserves so much more than stars!

The Ash Park Series Boxed Set (Books 1-3) by Meghan O’Flynn
5 +++ Stars
Absolutely no doubt about it this is on my list of favorite series ever…Detective Petrosky is one of my favorite characters ever as well and I can say that after reading this whole series so far..I can also say that Ash Park is probably my least favorite book town, definitely would not want to live there.
I read these totally out of order which you can do, but I have to say I can not wait to take a weekend and sit and read them all over back to back and in the correct order.
This author closely rivals some authors out there that everyone has heard of and in some ways there is no comparison, she is a master of this genre, which is one of my favorites.
It took me a bit to figure out Famished, I have to say that reading these out of order kind of helped reading the first one, but from there on Holy Mackerel! Not going to say these books were always easy to read because they weren’t, had to skip parts, and put the book down here and there and walk away, which means the author has done her job in my opinion.
I loved the first 3 books in this set, my favorite book actually comes later on in the series and I have to say if you in any way like this genre you will love these books!

Recall: An Ash Park Novel (Volume 6) by Meghan O’Flynn
5 +++++++ Stars
This is absolutely one of my favorite series ever! I’ve read them all out of order and wish I could go back and start from scratch the 1st time all over again. Take my advice and read them all one right after the other…I was able to piece everything together and that’s mainly because each one can be read as a standalone I guess but trust me and read them all, I am so glad I got to start this one finally in order, and before I go any further let me just say how flipping excited I am to know there is yet more Petrosky to come.
This one started out in perfect Petrosky style sitting in a cafe and his inner dialogue at full force. I about fell out of my chair when I found out he was sitting there with his ex wife! I have become so completely invested in these characters lives that I feel like I personally know them, that’s kind of scary lol
This one had me all messed up, should I really be conflicted about what is going on in this book? No but I was and everything about this story had me on the edge of my seat. I’m not going to even try to sum it all up, she does that perfectly in her synopsis. Just know that I can not recommend this book, as well as this whole series enough. I’ve read other books outside of this series by this author and it’s pretty safe to say she is one of my favorites.

Master’s Rise: Book 1 (Phoenix Series) by L. Ann Marie
4 Stars
This is my first book by this author and in doing research I see that there are many books I need to go back and read. I love MC books, they are among my favorites.
I did have trouble at first wondering if I was missing a lot of this story, which is why I went looking through her books. She did a good job of updating things but I still felt like I was missing something. Once I got towards the middle I found myself totally invested in all of these people. I loved Cort and I truly felt for him after reading and understanding his story, and his brothers totally won my heart with trying so hard to make things right for him. I loved Seren in this story as well, she was totally awesome and their story was written different then Im used to and I really liked it even if I can’t explain it LOL
I definitely did not like the town, it was a complete mess but what Cort and his brothers were trying to do to fix it was awesome and I must also mention this is one of the first books I’ve ever read that I actually felt present at the start of an MC and that was cool! I can’t wait to move forward with this series and see who we get to know more about. I loved so many of the secondary characters that I hope this series covers them all.
Took me a bit to fall into the writing style of this author…I had to go back and read sometimes two or three times to figure out the change of scenes or what was happening, but once I got a grip on it I was fine so hopefully the next book I won’t have any issues at all.

Second Chance (The Flowers in December Trilogy, book 3) by Jane Suen
5 ++++++ STARS
Many many thank yous to this author for giving us this book. I loved the first 2 but was a bit sad with then end of the 2nd. I had no idea this one was coming and I was so happy when I saw it. This had to be one of the best book 3’s of a trilogy yet, I’m thinking because I wanted it so much!
I was a bit concerned with the going back in time here and there through memories but found that it gave me a better understanding of who Mary Ann was. I loved the small town and this whole story felt so real, along with all the other feels you get from reading this last book in what is a wonderful series. I can’t wait to read it again back to back now that I have all three. 🙂
Jane Suen is an absolute must read, one click author for me, she continues to surprise me and you dont ever get predictable with her writing.
Thank you again Miss Suen for the rest of the story and I’ll be waiting patiently for what you come up with next!

I am so glad I added this book to the many I’ve already read by this author. This was such a simple read yet full of so much to keep you thinking all the way till the end. It was a one sitting read for me because I could not make myself put it down.
This author does a great job weaving a mystery with great characters and great storylines. This one had me all messed up jumping from one scenario to another and finally figuring it all out but loving how it played out, then thinking it was all cupcakes and unicorns from there on only to have another twist thrown in that for me personally came out of left field, never even occurred to me I guess because I was so focussed on the other part of the story. Loved it!! Well Played Miss Moore!
I loved Dawn, and her reactions to things were alot like I imagine mine would have been..but I think my favorites in the book aside from her would definitely have to be Jerome and Dorothy, and of course Scratch-off, he made me smile.
If I had one negative I would have loved another epilogue that included David, but I’ll just have to let my imagination figure that one out 🙂

I loved this book. It was completely unique and different than anything else ive read in a long time.
I stayed kind of confused the first bit trying to figure out some things but as it went on I knew why, one conversation between Charlie and her friend put it all in perspective for me. I read this in one sitting because I enjoyed every word and couldn’t put it down. I think the children in this story were my favorite part, their characters were written perfectly..Another favorite was that I felt like I could visualize every part of Charlie’s home and wanted to transport myself there and never return.
I loved the relationship that was shared by all..Family, even if it was strained in many ways and actually got worse..family was still the feeling I got while reading.
I think it was awesome how I went into this book thinking the title meant one thing and it turned out I was so off base and had so much of a deeper meaning and that ending… I had the biggest smile.

Amy’s Santa (Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #1) by Manda Mellett
5 +++++++ Stars
This is the second book this week I’ve read by an all ready favorite author that keeps breaking off of series with new series with most of the same characters, and once again I was worried that it might be over done or just be too much, and once again I should trust in this author whom I love so much because this read has now become one of my favorites.
I have fallen in love once again with the Tuscan chapter of the Satan’s Devils. The way she worked this story at first had me thinking I would get confused trying to remember who was married to who and then the kids, but somehow she managed to keep me on track and it was simply amazing.
What I loved the most in this book was the FOG’s (lol) I guess probably because I am so invested in all of them already, and I have to say that Joker absolutely cracked me up in this book, and Drummer and Heart…. Love them so much!
The quick update and progression of Amy and Drew’s past was genius, it wasn’t in flashbacks and was just enough to give me what I needed to want to know more. We were introduced to both of these characters in the first series and how they both grew up to be such awesome people can only be because of the love and family shown to them by the club. I was truly thinking at one point this book was taking a whole different route than it did and I’m so happy it didn’t. One thing I love about this author is she isn’t afraid to write scenes that might make you cringe a little or sometimes a lot so I will say beware there are a couple scenes that could be triggers for some.
I LOVED Amy’s story, it made me laugh way more than once (how the book got its name still cracks me up) and seriously made me cry, I hated for it to end. I feel like I’m transported into these stories and would love to know every single one of these characters.
I can’t wait for more of this Second Generation as well as more from Colorado…I dont think Ill ever get tired of reading about the Satan’s Devils!

I’m in shock…seriously…how can an author (an absolute favorite author) keep starting new series that feel like the other series involving the same people as well as some new ones and make them feel completely fresh each time? I’m going to be completely honest and say that of course there was no doubt I was going to read this because I mean..it’s Via Mari, but I was so worried that it would feel overdone maybe? Like maybe a brand new series would have been better? I feel completely stupid after finishing this…I almost feel like I should send an apology to this author for not trusting her.
Katarina and Chase will forever be one of my favorite book couples, I already knew that but this story just reinforced that… I can’t emphasize enough how much I loved being back with them. They have my heart and I loved how her strength shined through in this story and that she hasn’t lost that while in the complete and utter fog of protection and love given to her by Chase…sigh….
I loved the two stories going on in this book..two stories that actually on one hand were one yet on the other completely separate. This is where Gio and Serena come in…there was so much to their story…Serena fearing Gio’s Larussio family for good reason doing everything possible to protect Nonna and holding on to secrets from even her own family, but when Gio decides he will have Serena as his own vowing to protect and care for her can Serena trust this man that she has feared and suffered because of for so many years?
Someone tried to kill Carlos, the head of the Larussio family who happens to be Katarina’s father and Gio’s favorite uncle..these two finally meet as Carlos has made it very clear that all the plans he had and has for the family are to be carried out by these two cousins who have never met. Katarina meets a family that is hers by blood, while Gio meets a cousin he has never been sure even shares his blood..how this all plays out makes for an amazing story that had me reading non stop and my head throbbing because I couldn’t read fast enough, then just looking down shaking my head because it was over….when I say i didn’t want this book to end I’m saying it with complete sincerity..so many times I felt like I had transported in to this world this author created and I wasn’t ready for it to be over. This could be at this point my favorite in them all, take my advice and pick up all of the books that are involved in these series…definitely worth every penny, and I can’t wait to reread everything!
Now I wait for Rise…so many unanswered questions I need answers to, a looming drs appt, who is behind it all, what happened to the brothers, Antonio?, how is Nonna, Sheldon and Alexis? (fell in love with these two) and does Gaby get her bigger kitchen???

The Traveler: Chimera Rebellion (The Book of Eleanor Book 1) by Shannon Nemechek
5 Stars
I’m a HUGE fan of time travel novels that include romance… There’s a huge series out there with books that are like super long and I have that whole series in paperback and have read it 3 times …This is why I was a bit worried when I saw this book, I was afraid I’d be too critical or it wouldn’t live up to what I had in my mind as far as expectations for the time travel genre…
One of the main reasons I chose to read this is the author..I love Shannon Nemechek and have read a few of her books but let me just say that this is by far my favorite of hers so far. She did an AMAZING job with this story and actually had me completely invested within the first few pages and I found that I didn’t compare or criticize at all.. I actually did not want it to end. How this story unfolded and how Katie and Colm came together while Katie learned of so many things about herself and her own past, I just can’t say enough about this story!
This was full of everything I love about reading…The way everything was written made it almost seem real and even possible.. I’m not going into specifics of the story…I say read it, you will not be sorry..I can not wait for the next in this series. That ending … oh my!!
I will absolutely be rereading this right before the second book releases and I already can’t wait 🙂

As I said in my review of the 1st book of this series I am not a huge fan of sci fi or fantasy…I enjoyed the first book enough to read this one and I might have liked this one a little better. It’s been a bit since I’ve read the first and I thought I was ok because most of the book can be read as a stand alone but later on some of the first book came into play and I probably should have refreshed my memory and it might have helped, but this one felt completely different and I did enjoy it more.
I really did like Meda, her character was awesome and I was drawn into the story right away with reading about her waking up and the sensations she was experiencing trying to figure out where she was, and then who she was. Her struggles to survive felt very real, and realizing her special ability yet having no idea how she got it was awesome. I loved how she set a mission to help and followed through.
The story did flow nicely and didnt feel near as wordy as the first book did. I will just say that if your a fan of Sci Fi, Epic fantasy than you will love this book. It was written very well. The whole Meda and Perseus part of the story put a whole new spin on second chances. I loved that!
