This was a short, illustrated story that helps answer the question that parents hate to hear from their children “Is there really a Santa Claus?” I like how the author took a different approach to answering this question and decided to teach kids to keep the dream alive. I think this is a great way to make the kids aware that Santa will always be in your heart if you just believe. I loved how the author managed to use a relic not Christmas related as a symbol of believing. This could be a great way of continuing to help keep the memories of Christmas alive in all of us. I thought that the illustrations were quite beautiful. I loved that they were simple yet helped tell the story. This is a highly recommended book for young children, especially those starting to question Santa.

This is the 6th, and I assume final, book in the series. As there are 6 ‘Bastard’ brothers and this is the 6th book, added to the storyline in this book, I’m assuming that this series has now come to an end. I will certainly miss this series as each and every book, including this 6th one, have been amazing. I have been a fan of this author for a few years now and I’ve loved every single book of hers that I have read. At last we get the story of the last brother Lazarus. I’ve been waiting for his story for a long time and it certainly did not disappoint. I really loved reading Lazarus and Sasha’s story. Having met Sasha previously when Lazarus was severely injured and she was his nurse, I just knew that their story would be a damn good one. This author has an amazing skill of writing amazing romantic suspense novels. I love that we get so much more than just a romance story. The back story to this book, as well as the others in the series, of the brother’s vendetta against their father has had me gripped throughout the series and I was desperate to know how this would conclude. I absolutely loved this book, and the whole series and I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for us, the readers, next.

I enjoyed this paranormal-shifter story. This is a newer author for me which I enjoyed her writing style and her attention to details. This is the first book in this series and I look forward to seeing what is next in this series. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters. They are connectable, strong and creative. They truly brought the story to life for me. I enjoyed their growth as well as the growth of the plot throughout the story. This is a story about secrets and acceptance. Ember is a great character and my favorite of the story. Ember and Austin’s chemistry made the story entertaining to read. What will happen between these two? When secrets are no longer hidden, will these two find their way to each other? I really enjoyed this book and it is worth the pick up. I highly recommend this book.
There is nothing I like better than a little romance, a little intrigue, a little heartbreak and a lot of heat. This story had all that and more. A masterful and mysterious web was woven and the details were very descriptive, while leaving the characters well developed. The leading lady was a feisty detective with a lot of weight on her shoulders. The leading man is the ultimate match and has a toe the line, professional manner. A myriad of emotions rolled along throughout the book and the senses were heightened by the passion, intense attraction, guilt, and a deep sense of duty and finding justice. An accomplished yet nerve racking romantic suspense that ticks all the boxes. 4 stars.

Small town pub owner, Amber Tatum, craves a family to call her own, especially during the holidays. But painful childhood memories make her steer clear of the annual traditions the small town of Cold Creek has to offer. When a handsome Italian chef saunters into her bar and jingles her bells, she wonders if her Christmas wish might possibly come true.
Giovanni Sentieri is ready to put down roots and take over his grandmother’s Italian Café. After a devastating divorce, he finds himself as a single father, struggling to balance work and life. The last thing he expected was to fall for a spunky bar owner. So when he learns about her tragic childhood after a few too many shots of whiskey, he invites her to spend the holidays with his family.
Will the magic of Christmas bring this couple together, or will the self-proclaimed Grinch of Cold Creek turn her back on the possibility of love and family?
A Cold Creek Christmas is the fifth book in a series of standalone contemporary romance novels. If you like steamy instant-attraction with all the holiday feels, then you’ll adore KG Fletcher’s Christmas novella.

KG is a hopeless romantic continuing her work on her original cabaret act called, “The Novel Romantic – an unexpected evening of sweet & spicy love” to help promote her romance novels.

As with the other books in this series this is a paranormal shifter story and an interesting read. It can be read as a standalone, but you should start from the beginning. It had everything I love to keep me engaged. With shifters – dragons and vampires, evil sorceress and magic, mystery and drama, and quirky characters there is so much to enjoy in this book. Add in a little mystery, action and danger, some romance and passion and you are ready for an afternoon delight of getting lost in the story and the world the author has created. Her destined soulmate is of the rarest form of shifter but to save mankind she has to do the unthinkable. He has nothing left but to die. However, he soon learns that fate has led him the most perfect gift. Now if only they can convince her to claim her destiny. Reviewed by @jennadb
