This was a entertaining light read. I am new to this authors work and I truly enjoyed it. This gives a fun twist to dating apps. With demons and satan and spice. This gives a comedic twist to the supernatural that has you rooting for love. It was great to receive a happy ending in the twist an turns of the demonic world. Who doesn’t love spice time and a good dating app. Taking place in New Orleans it gives a world built on the enticing and the devilish. I would easily recommend this to anyone looking for a new light story that brings your favorite genre of paranormal romance to life.

I had not read this amazing author, until this book, but I am so glad that I got started with this treat. This was the perfect book to end the year with. I loved their writing style, and how the story progressed, the characters were wonderful and everything flowed so well! Loved it!
For me it was each of the characters and the personalities they withheld that made me fall in love so quick. Each had a heart, and different emotions as well as their own zest to what ever level spiciness you would consider them to have. The engagement was very strong with this novel I found, I was hooked very early on and the curiosity and want to know more just continued to rise more and more! As said, flowed through ever so nicely. I really enjoyed the technique and word play of the writing!
Katrina brought on the spice oh so well. And Gabe, his hotness alone could make my kindle swear! I loved his determination and how things seemed to go along and progress between the two of them. It seemed at times they both got more than they bargained for! Loved their chemistry and attractions on every level they had for one another! Really great read and absolutely freaking loved this book and author!
Loved this book, as I have hoped I have made clear. I loved the writing of the author and how the story flowed. The author has now gained a consistent stalker haha. Happy to say this is a must read for sure1 I do very much recommend this book and author highly! Not one to be swiped left!

Are you kidding me??? This book was a whirlwind of emotions. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time and I have so many questions I am so happy I already have the next book in the series because I absolutely need to know what happens to this group of people next. I NEED MORE ASAP. I was so engulfed with this book that at one point my boyfriend was like “hey can you stop reading and pay attention to me” I literally couldn’t put this book down it was THAT good. I am so deep into this world that I couldn’t get out even if I wanted to. I feel fear and worry and intense love it makes my own heart swell just reading about the love that these two share. I am excited but also terrified by these characters all while falling in love with each of them. I do recommend reading the first book in the series as there is a lot to unfold within this Mafia world and the backstory of each character is so intense and deep you just gotta read the books to fully get it all. I have a feeling each book will just get better and better cause I thought I loved the first one but this one I devoured faster than my Christmas cookies after I officially end a diet. There was no stopping myself once I got into it. I may or may not be in love with Enzo myself. The way Mckinley writes these characters there is just no way to not fall in love with them. The men are passionate and strong and overprotective and there is just something so compelling about a man who loves you so hard and will die fighting for you and rescue you in any situation that is just irresistible. And don’t even get me started on these firecrackers of woman in this world. The ladies are strong yet gentle and beautiful. They band together in times of need, fight hard and love harder. I am in awe of these ladies. This series is a must read in my opinion.

I can always count on these books for a great story, good laughs and an escape from reality. I love this series and this author and they never disappoint. You dont have to read the others to read this, but it helps with other characters names and who they are. I really just love this series!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Grace has been through so much and she has taken responsibility for her actions and she is climbing her way back to redemption. She is tough, smart, independent, a good lawyer and also flawed as many of us are, which makes her very relatable. As an ex prosecuter she is now in the other side defending a high profile teenager accused of murder. This book is full of suspense, great characters, twists and turns, and much more. The author did a great job pulling me into the story and keeping me entertained. I can’t wait to read what the author has in store for us next.

What a wonderful start to a series! I could not put it down and stayed up most of the night to finish it. Loved the setting in Florida as it made me want to go back and visit. The characters were well developed and very realistic. I’m going to have to read the next book. What a great story a must read.

Reading this book captivated me from the prologue and I couldn’t put it down except to ponder what went on! The author did an amazing job of telling the story from so many points of view. To witness in what felt like real time the tragedy of these women’s lives was drop great breaking. I’m always pinched inside when I hear of women worth such harrowing stories regarding their children. I feel very blessed top have two children of my own. The multiple stories from every perspective really made me happiest while reading this book. It is amazing what can go on in the minds of other people and how perception is everything. My heart was broken to read of the problems women faced in those times. I will definitely recommend this book to my friends!

O.MG. This book captivated me from the very beginning. I was sucked in so fast it made my head spin. The writing was so beautifully done, descriptive, and flowing that it all played out like a perfect movie in my head. I felt like I was there witnessing everything in real-time. There were so many characters to keep up with but I loved every minute of learning about each new character and seeing how they all fit in to create this absolutely chaotic mafia world.
I haven’t gotten too much into mafia romance before but this series is gonna make me want more of it I can already tell just from this first book.
This book was very much a fast-paced page turner with twists I did not see coming which was nice cause I love a good surprise and they just kept on coming. I felt so many emotions while reading this from fear to rage and worry to even love. This book was so good I adored the way the relationship unfolded so genuinely and perfectly. It is one of those relationships where it is just meant to be no matter how you look at it and I cannot wait to devour the rest of the books in this series. Amy Mckinley has a way of writing intense fight scenes that actually scared me then turning it around and write an equally captivating romance scene that makes me feels all the angst and as if im the one fighting to fall for the sexy mystery Mafia guy. Uhhh this was just so good. If you want fight and fury read this. If you want passion and power read this. If you want true love that you’d go to the ends of the earth fighting for read this. Its got it all.

What an intriguing read! This story follows Sandy, Becca, and Faith. Life in the 60’s was so very different from what it is now. These three ladies find themselves pregnant and are sent off to what is called a maternity house. Back then, this is what happened if you were unmarried. You would be shipped off there until you give birth, give your baby up for adoption, and then go back home and pretend nothing happened. And that is what happened with these three ladies – until years later they become victims of a blackmail plot threatening to uncover their secret.

I enjoyed this one more than the first book in the series. Dahlia is a great character. Balancing keeping humans safe and protecting the secrets of her home, while discovering the full potential of her power is a great read. I love her friendship with Evans. The action and emotions in the story will keep you engrossed. I look forward to reading the third installment
Grace Locke is hanging onto life by her fingernails. Recently recovering from nearly losing her job as a prosecutor, and living in a less than desirable place, she never thought she’d have to put up working for the types of people she’s resorting to defending now. Things may be looking up, however, when she gets wind of a possible career-maker case…the only downside is the accused kid is the daughter of the woman who ended her marriage. But once Grace takes the case, she soon discovers things aren’t as cut and dry as the police would have you believe and there are much darker forces at work against her client. This book really hit on topics that make up a great mystery-crime-thriller including complex characters, deep plot twists, and a loveable heroine who doesn’t allow the world to beat her down! Highly recommended!

This was a new to me author and series, and I didn’t even realize this going into it that it was the fifth book in the series. It didn’t at all inhibit me from enjoying the book at all and only really has me want to go back and enjoy the others in the series now. I thought this book was quite poignant given the world is going through COVID-19 right now, so it just hit close to home several times while reading. Our world is kind of falling apart around us and we have a main character who is also experiencing this and taking matters into her own hands and kicking butt. I loved the comedic relief at times that made me feel as if the world was less hopeless for her as well. I look forward to seeing what the other books have for me and what other books may be to come.

Obviously given the subject matter this book may not be for everyone, but the topic was handled very well and truthfully. I’m a sucker for a story with multiple narrators, so that was a plus for me right away. I love reading the different perspectives and how their stories intertwine and build on each other. I would have given it 5 stars, but I thought some parts of the story felt a bit forced. Overall a very gripping and intriguing read!

This author has done it again! Another five-star read from one of my new favourite authors! Just like the first and second in the series this third, Born in Darkness, has blown my mind and it was an unput-a-downable read. The author knows how to make her writing addictive and keep you wanting more. The history she gives her characters helps to keep you wanting to come back and to continue to read other books in not only this series but also this author’s other books as well. Although this book is part of the series I feel it could be read as a standalone because of the background of the characters given but I would still highly recommend reading the others in the series! She could write anything, and I would 100% read it! I absolutely cannot wait until the next book is in my hands to read because I will be dropping everything, just like I did with this third in the series, and reading it immediately.

I thoroughly enjoyed this latest book in this series of paranormal romantic comedies. It can be read as a standalone story, however, I recommend reading the previous books as they are a fun read. This story is a lighthearted, funny romance featuring ‘supes’, with an enemies to lovers theme. Succubus Katrina is trying to ignore her demonic urges so that Satan will eventually forget about her, and then she will be free, this means no sex! Katrina spends her time helping the ‘supes’ of New Orleans with their dating by introducing, ‘Swipe Right to Bite’, “the best and only hook-up app for the supernatural”. Then Gabe, an insufferable incubus turns up in Big Easy and ruins Katrina’s plans. Although Katrina tries to get rid of Gabe, she can not deny their instant attraction, and Gabe, feeling the same, is not going to leave easily. I loved the characters, as usual they are unique, likeable and relatable, making me feel engaged in their stories. The chemistry between Katrina and Gabe really came across in the story and led to some steamy scenes, eventually! As usual the descriptive narrative really brought the supernatural setting to life and I felt fully immersed in Big Easy. The great world building, intriguing characters and the funny, romantic storyline all made this a page turner which I definitely recommend.

Having read and enjoyed the previous books in this series I was looking forward to this novel and I was not disappointed. It was nice to be back in the small town of Parker and with the group of friends who live there. This was Colleen “CC” Chandler‘s story, having always lived in her small home town, working as a hair stylist, her unstable upbringing had left her lacking in confidence. When Brant Billings accepts a job in Parker, Oklahoma as a nurse practitioner at the towns clinic his plan is to only stay for three years, to earn enough to pay back his student loans. Being raised as a foster kid he’s used to moving on, however, that was before he met CC, the only problem was she seemed to be avoiding him. Meanwhile, CC feels that she is ‘only’ a hairdresser and thinking that Brant is much smarter than her and will only be around for a short time, she try’s to ignore the instant attraction she has for him and avoids him. Brant and CC are brought together when CC’s friends buy her a date with Brant at the towns eligible bachelor auction. I was cheering the couple on, hoping they would be able to overcome their pasts and get the HEA they both deserved. I loved CC and Brant and how their relationship developed over time. The chemistry between them really came across in the writing. As usual, the setting came alive by the descriptive narrative and I felt immersed in small town living, in Parker. I enjoyed ‘catching up’ with characters from the previous novels, however, it can be read as a standalone story. An enjoyable and engaging read.

I have to admit this step out of my go to genre was not a disappointment. This is the first book by this author I have read. I found the author to have a unique story and very relatable characters. I like that the heroine has a past and that she also has her own demons she is battling. There was also just the right mix of drama and suspense. This book definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. I will definitely be reading more from this author in future.

I loved this book! It was a great mystery. I felt like the plot was realistic, we live in crazy times. I felt connected to Grace as I knew her on a personal level. I was hooked from the first page and that continued throughout the book, while I was rooting for Grace the whole time. I felt like this book was fast-paced, with tons of twists and an ending that I didn’t guess correctly!

Swipe Right to Bite (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 6) By Carrie Pulkinen
5-stars
Wow! This author amazes me time and time again, she’s one of my all-time favourites. She’s one of those one click authors for me, I will read anything by her without question!
This is the sixth book in the New Orleans Nocturnes series, a series that can easily be read as standalones but I would highly recommend the whole thing anyway because this is honestly one of the best paranormal series I’ve ever read.
The characters in this storyline are so captivating and were so easy to connect with, I found myself laughing along with them and giggling at their witty remarks. I was honestly entertained the whole way through, so much so that I read it in one sitting, I couldn’t bring myself to stop reading as I was so immersed in the story forgetting all about the real world.
I highly highly recommend this book to anyone looking for their next one of a kind comedic paranormal read!

When I read this book I had no idea that it was the author’s debut novel. It was only by looking at a few other reviews before writing my own that I discovered this and it makes me admire the author even more. This is a really great piece of writing that I would have assumed was from a seasoned author. Grace is a fascinating character. She an attorney who is really down on her luck. After losing her leg in active service she then became addicted to painkillers and alcohol, resulting in a DUI, which in turn led to her losing her job as an assistant state prosecutor and the end of her marriage. Could anything else go wrong in her life? The book is a bit of a slow burn to start with but does pick up pace and soon has you on a dangerous journey full of twists and turns as Grace tries to prove the innocence of teenager Zoe who has been charged with murder and all the evidence points to her being guilty. Can grace prove that she is innocent? Or is she innocent? This really was a compelling read and I was totally engrossed in it and did not want to put it down. Definitely recommend.

A great read ex- prosecutor Grace Locke decides to switch sides and take a case as the defence attorney for a local teen from a very well-known family who has been accused of murder. But very quickly she begins to suspect her client may well be innocent. Locke is this young girls only chance of a not guilty verdict, so she must concentrate on nothing but this case and pull out the big guns of her legal background.

I am not a huge fan of historical romance I find it hard to stay concentrated but this book was good. Jacek is a soilder and a pretty good one and his only goal is to progress in his military career so he does not have time for romance.

Born in Darkness (Mafia Elite Book 3) by Amy McKinley – Review by Tori Werkheiser
Oh, sweet heavens this book was just as good as the first two which are a must-read for this series. The intensity, fear, love, drama I loved it all. I have loved getting to know more characters in this world Mckinley has created. I had suspicions of who the rat would be and watching everything unfold was thrilling and totally captivating. I was not sure how things would work out I was genuinely nervous reading it all go down. I felt like I was in the middle of this circle of the Mafia Five Families and I ate up every second of it. The forbidden romance in this was so touching yet steamy. The stolen kisses and touches ugh had me weak in the knees and when they finally get together it feels like all is right in this world. This series is making me want to find a Mafia Boss of my own. 5/5 Cannot wait to devour the rest of this series as it releases this year.

Born In Darkness is the third book in the Mafia Elite series and the first book that I have read in this series. Even though I had not read the previous books, I had no problem following along. I liked the strong theme of family and the way the author contrasted the families in the book. There is also a nice portrayal of strong women and friendship. It is a quick read and though I am not usually a fan of alternating character points of view, I found that this book flowed very nicely and I did not at all mind the alternating points of view. If you enjoy forbidden romance and/or mafia-themed books then you should give this book a read.

This is the third book in the series and my third review of this series- this book was GOOD. Just like all the others- maybe even better than all the others…. I am a sucker for this storyline (vampires and lycans are sexy!!) and I’m really freaking sad the series is over- but it was a great last book to finish the series. I love love love Tasha and Levi’s romance and just can’t seem to get enough. Honestly now that I finished the series- I’ll read them again back to back (it really is that good y’all!) check this series out- y’all won’t regret it!!

Fun next installment in the engaging saga of the consulate
3rd novel in the series which should be read after books 1 and 2, as the series has an overarching storyline that we get bits of along the way. Here we continue to have a story that switches POV between the two main characters.I do enjoy that it is first person narrative and that we get more insight into their thoughts and actions this way.
Here we’re introduced to Mr. No first name Trentino and Angel. Angel ends up at the wrong place at the wrong time and he has to save her. This is sort of a love at first sight romance, but its not done too fast. I like that the pair continues getting to know one another after they’re paired. The sex scenes are more sensually done than graphic in their telling, which I enjoyed. There’s some spice, but not too much to draw the focus from what’s going on with the vampires and who’s sabotaging them.
We do get to see more of the characters from the previous books, and get caught up on how the couples are doing. I really enjoyed the ladies (Lucianna, Delilah, Embry, and Angel’s) interactions, them supporting one another and having fun together too. I really can’t wait to read a story from Embry’s POV (fingers crossed).
I enjoy this series, hence why I keep on reading them upon release, but I’m finding the same issues occurring. I previously mentioned my problem with them transporting vast distances, and my statement stands here. Why have the vampires sneaking around and trying to find a way in to a place when they just transported to that location in the first place?

Swipe Right to Bite is a short and sassy romantic comedy among demons. Our sexy succubus Katrina is determined to send Gorgeous Gabe the incubus packing to whatever Hell he came from, but is sidetracked by his luscious form. As a sex demon on the wagon, she is trying her mightiest to keep everyone’s clothes on, but the temptation for both is more than they bargained for (literally). The humour is very tongue-in-cheek and the witty puns are rampant in this story, similar to other works by Pulkinen. If you have read and loved any of her other works, you will find this book just as delicious. Fans of quirky humour and steamy romance will enjoy this saucy story.
