A Heart So Savage (The Savage Duet #2)A Heart So Savage by April Moran
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book picks up right where the first book left off at. This book is full of suspense, action, dark romance, twists and turns and more. This first book left us on a bit of a cliffhanger so I was happy to read that this story answered a lot of questions. I still felt like there were times I wanted to yell at Ava for being an idiot but there were also times that I can understand why she acts the way she does. I am pleased to find that Kingston does have a heart after all. It was intriguing to watch Kingston go through so many different emotions while trying to understand his feelings toward Ava. I was completely taken in by these characters and the storyline needing to know what was going to happen next. This author did a great job giving me some unexpected moments in this book. I became invested in the outcome of this story. I look forward to reading more by this author. I recommend this book.

Nessie and the Living Stone (Nessie's Grotto)Nessie and the Living Stone by Lois June Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have always enjoyed Lois Wickstrom’s books. The books are as fascinating to adults as much as young readers. In this book the young boy Craig is determined to find the Loch ness Monster Nessie. But his sister Linda comes in the way and keeps ruining his chance of success. Will Craig find Nessie? What extent would he go to find Nessie? What lessons he learns on the way? That is the summary of this book.
The book has some wonderful illustrations and a valuable morale for the readers. Do pick up a copy if you haven’t done it yet. Its worth a read.

Mission Improbable: Vietnam (Blanche Murninghan Mystery, #3)Mission Improbable: Vietnam by Nancy Nau Sullivan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mission Improbable is the third in the Blanch Burningham mystery and can be read as a stand alone novel. It follows the protagonist Blanche and her friend Jean to post war Vietnam where Jean is searching for her lost mother and Blanche finding answers about her father herself. Jean is an offspring of a Vietnamese mother and a U.S officer who had served in Vietnam. Jean grew up with her father and now is on a mission to Vietnam to find about her long lost mother with few vague clues. Blanche agrees to help her, as she has her own vested interest in knowing more about her father who also served in the Vietnam war.
This was a very interesting book, the reader gets to know a lot about Vietnam , specifically Saigon, in the post war era, the landscape, culture and the food. There are also first hand accounts of the soldiers who actually served in the Vietnam war, which makes the book a lot more informative.
I really enjoyed the book and would recommend it to everyone.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A well written fantasy book that took me to places I didn’t expect. Sloane , the main character we meet in the very beginning is strong and is finding her way. Her friend Alvie is exactly the one Sloane needs with her. The author writes beautifully and makes it easy to think we are along side the characters as they deal with their experiences. Thank you for reminding me how much I love fantasy books and bringing this beautiful work to us readers.

Daniel is left at the altar unexpectedly. His best friend Joey talks him into still going on his honeymoon since it’s a non refundable trip. Although Daniel isn’t too sure about this, he agrees to go. What can go wrong when you’ve already had the worst day of you life?
The author didn’t disappoint with the characters and the location of the different kind of “honeymoon” that Daniel and Joey are on. It’s full of fun, sun, and romance!

The author, Linda Burson, is a very skilled writer. As I first started reading this series it was a slow start. After a couple of chapters, the story picked up the pace and I could not put the book down at all. The stories are full of intrigue, plot twists, and lots of emotions going on with Marcy. There is definitely character growth in Marcy throughout this series. Overall, it’s a very good read.

Lost and Found
By: Valerie Davisson

I feel like every time I read a Logan McKenna Book, I swear that there is no way that Valerie Davisson could write a better book. Then there is a new release and it is better than the last one I read. This book is no exception.
In this story, Logan is mixed up with an accident on a crab boat. When a local fisherman is washed overboard and feared dead – Logan is determined to find out who did it. Especially after someone she knows is accused of being involved.
Logan is such a fantastic character and the people she surrounds herself with are such an addition to this book. I loved how in this book there was a sub plot that featured an illegal immigrant who finds himself in trouble. This looked at some real concerns for people who are living in our country. Sam in this book just really sweetened the story. The plot in this book moved so fast and featured so many twists and turns. Everytime I thought that it was all figured out another wrinkle would come into play. I read the last half of this book in one sitting because I just did not want to put it down – I had to know how it would end.
I definitely recommend picking up this story. It is so very good and really sucks you in. If you haven’t read the others I recommend reading those as well! You won’t be disappointed!

This was the first book I read by this author. It was not what I was expecting when I first picked it up. It was definitely a page turner for sure! I read it in one night! I was not a fan of a couple of characters but really liked Marcie. Then she meets Ted which ends up being the hero of the story. I cannot believe the twist that came in the story and was not expecting it to go that far! I will be looking for more books by this author in the future!!

Triple Trouble at Amberwood
By: Eleanor Dixon

This is the fourth book in the Amberwood Hall Ballet School Series, however, it is the first that I have read. I will caution that while it does function somewhat as a standalone, I do think that the book would read much smoother if you have read the previous books. There seems to be some overlap as well as characters and their development seems to be occurring from book to book. I will definitely be going back to read the previous three books as I do want to read the whole series since this book, overall, was a very good read.
This is more of a middle grade book (ages 8 – 12) but I definitely loved reading this and can say that older groups can read this book as it is a very enjoyable book.
In Amberwood Hall there are ghosts. Some of these ghosts are incredibly friendly and others are not so much. Lauren and her friends want to figure out what is causing chaos at their school. They are driven to solve this problem when it leads to the end of the year production being canceled.
I definitely recommend picking this story up and I will be picking up the rest of the series to read them. It was a quick fun read!

A Heart So Savage (The Savage Duet #2)A Heart So Savage by April Moran
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You need to read the first book in this series prior to this one for context!

This book is as dark and twisted as the previous one. Now that Ava and Kingston both know that Ava’s brother will not be paying the ransom, decisions must be made. And there are people waiting for them to make the wrong ones. As time passes, and their feelings towards each other seem to be growing stronger, are the decisions they are making the right ones? There is a lot of backstory in this book regarding Kingston and Oliver…and why they are the way they are.

I enjoyed every morsel of this book…the spice, the chaos, the protectiveness, and the darkness. You can feel Ava’s anguish about trusting her own feelings…the protectiveness from Kingston…and the craziness of Oliver. I thoroughly enjoyed this duet and am crossing my fingers (and toes) that Oliver will get his own book next!

Woman Unbroken
By: Alexandra Fleder

This is an incredibly emotional and intense story that should feature a trigger warning for victims of abuse. The main character, Devorah is about to undergo the biggest undertaking of her life – taking her life back despite being an incredibly broken and defeated woman.
This story is one that many can directly relate to, unfortunately. But if you cannot relate to this story, it will leave you feeling empowered and just feeling better about the world in general. Everyone can relate to the general them that no matter what we go through in life, we always have the chance to grow and find ourselves again. This book had me crying throughout but most of the tears were good tears, the tears that one cries when they have made realizations about themselves through the journey of a well written and well developed character.
This book may not be for everyone, however, if you pick it up you will find yourself definitely rooting for the main character and perhaps finding yourself growing with her.

This is the third book in the Diamond District Mystery Series, however, it is the first that I read. I will start out by saying that this book definitely functions as a standalone, I was not at all confused by what was going on in this story even though I hadn’t read the previous. This was such an interesting story and I was very interested to continue reading to find out if the diamond was truly cursed. This is a fantastic mystery that definitely delivers on twists and turns. The main character journalist was a nice addition. Mimi was a fantastically well developed character. I definitely recommend this story if you enjoy a good mystery that keeps you guessing!

Be True With Me
By: C.A. MIconi

This is a fantastic sweet holiday romance. It features a second chance romance that makes it a very fun read with a lot of substance. The characters are fantastically well developed and it is watching them continue to evolve throughout this story that is so endearing.
Lauren has been on the run from her past, because she was humiliated by her college sweetheart. She has a mission in her life to help other children who have come through the foster system like her. She wants them to have a better life than she did. However, what she doesn’t expect is that her past will come crashing into her.
Jake was Lauren’s college sweetheart. He has a lot of regret for what happened with her and has tried to make sure that he can make amends. However, little did he know that one call as a law enforcement officer would put his past with lauren in front of him.
This book is an absolute roller coaster of emotions. I felt myself crying off and on throughout this book. But sometimes those books that pull at my heart strings become some of my favorites and this book is no exception! I definitely recommend picking up this short novel!

A Heart So Savage (The Savage Duet #2)A Heart So Savage by April Moran
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars
There are warnings for trigger content so make sure to read that before reading this story.
A Heart So Savage is the second devilish book in The Savage Duet and just like the first book A King So Savage it is gritty, raw, bloody, and deadly. Some of my favourite things in dark romances and April does it so well. I can’t get enough.
It is a captivating dark romance that will set you on fire. The characters are complex and intriguing and make the story.
Ava is a prisoner of his twisted mind and world. He is dark intense, dominant, possessive, and an utterly irresistible man. She knows what needs to be done and he just has to let her.
King is a dark, violent and sadistic alpha male of the underworld. He is someone you will love to hate and hate to love.
He will do anything to protect her in his own twisted way, but she may just be the one that saves them both.
It is a captivating romance tale with darkness, possessiveness, obsessiveness, angst, drama, violence, emotions, secrets, danger, secrets, danger, and so much more.
This is one duet that you don’t want to miss. I can’t wait for more of this genre from April.

This book begins with Zeke and Beverly walking when he spots the best elf for Beverly to enter into the contest. Beverly decides she hates it because it’s an antique. She hates all antiques because they’re old and smelly.

Zeke ends up purchasing the elf without her knowledge and with a secret plan. He then convinces Beverly to hire Marcie as their dog and house sitter so he can spy on her through the elf.

Marcie later meets Ted, who moves in next door and there is instantly a spark between them.

If you’re looking for a cute holiday themed romance novel, this is for you. There’s a little mystery, a little romance. Perfect for everyone.

A Heart So Savage (The Savage Duet #2)A Heart So Savage by April Moran
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 2 of the Savage Duet.

Ava is the main character and is “a lost girl searching for a safe place to belong.” Because aren’t we all a little lost, looking for a place to belong? This story certainly hits all the feels. Even Ava is confused by her feelings as the story progresses. I love the way this story develops and how the characters’ feelings shift.

“Hatred and despair had morphed into something else…something savage.”

Kingston doesn’t seem as mean in this story, but we do learn more about his enemies, well Ava’s enemies. It seems Kingston was right about those wanting to hurt her. But it’s the who that adds to the twist of the knife!

Again, this author touches on some subjects that may cause questions within the reader. Anger, fear, repulsion, concern, lust, interest, confusion to name a few. This duet is violent, sexy in a rough way, and being a romantic at heart I can see the hope building for a happily ever after.

Pursuit into Darkness (War of Destiny #2)Pursuit into Darkness by Theresa Van Spankeren
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I went into this book without reading the first book of the series. It was easy to catch onto things, I felt there was enough time between the books to not be confused about book two. I think I will go back and read the first book just to see if the author explains more about the vampires, I love reading the different types of vampires everyone comes up with. I like that these vampires do need blood, are fighting to not be killers, people know about them, and I really like that they get injured. They are out in the night and avoid daylight, I’m not sure exactly what daylight does to them, I’m assuming only weakens them since Julia was out during the day.
Speaking of, I couldn’t stand Julia. I really enjoyed the other characters, I think Rab was my favorite but Julia was just too selfish for me. I know she’s the main character but she really had to make everything all about her. I hope she gets better character growth in the rest of the series.
I was rooting for Samual since the beginning, I instantly liked his character, I’m not 100% on his and Valentinos relationship but like I said, I plan to go back to book one to get my unanswered questions. I like the cause of the resistance and he makes the book worth sticking around to read.

Porter and Midge: Paws and Playtime: A Kid’s Guide to a Happy Dog by Giselle Nevada and Jennie Chen is a fun kids guide to having a happy dog. The story follows CJ and Lora and their dogs Porter and Midge. As their dogs play together, they run into several friends who give very useful advice on how to keep their dogs happy. This book had so much useful information. Although it is for children, adults can find tons of tips that they may not have known. The information is clear and very easy for kids to understand with a fun rhyming scheme. The illustrations are also fun.

Pursuit into Darkness (War of Destiny #2)Pursuit into Darkness by Theresa Van Spankeren
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a wonderful addition to this series. Book two picks to years after Julia accepted Samuel’s offer of helping them overthrow the Vampire King. We find Julia still developing her powers and abilities, while also acknowledging that she’s light years away from her full potential. Thinking they’ve got plenty of time on their hands for her to grow into her own at her own accord, they are shocked to learn that Valentino himself had shown up determined to find those within the resistance.

This paranormal storyline is a bit complex but not overwhelming, so all levels of readers should be able to follow the intricacies in the plot and character growth. While you can read this book on its own, I think the reader will get the full effect if they take the time to read book one as well. Either way, you will be entertained and intrigued.

The author did a fantastic job adding to Samuel and Julia’s journey. I think both characters are impressive, especially when trying to determine how best to beat your nemesis when strength alone will not allow you to protect yourself and your team.

Pursuit into Darkness is book 2 of a 3 book series and it brought a lot more to the story of Julia, Adam and Samuel. The development of new characters, several twists and turns and so much more. As with book 1, I am not typically drawn to vampire books, but this series is a good one and has very strong character development and a strong storyline. If you enjoy vampire books, I would highly recommend this book and this whole series. The author really puts the reader through a roller coaster of emotions in book 2 and I look forward to how it will all come to a close in book 3.

I am not normally a fan of books about vampires, but this was definitely an interesting book. The characters had very strong development and I found an immediate draw to the main character Julia and her struggles with her father and the expectation of arranged marriage, but mostly the strength she needs as she deals with the years of torment at the hand of her husband. The vampire element was intriguing and provided an interesting solution for Julia. This book does have a lot of emotional triggers, which could be difficult for some readers, but I really did enjoy the story and all the different relationships and connections between the characters. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

To Catch An Elf by Debra Parmley was not what I expected at all. It was an interesting story with romance and suspense. The characters were developed pretty well and painted a fairly strong picture of each character. As the story went on, I was drawn in more and more. I did feel that the ending was rushed, but overall, the story was good. The elf and Zeke definitely brought the creepy element to the story, but I really loved the romantic storyline between Marcie and Ted.

A heart so savage was a great ending to Ava and Kingston’s story. The conclusion was so good. I couldn’t put the book down. So many questions were answered and there was so much suspense and action. Wow. I want to say, I didn’t see that happening but I kinda did. Just not to that extent. Shocked is an understatement. This boon had it all. It was emotional, hot, and just all together crazy. I love Kingston and Ava and love how Kingston says she was always his from that day he saw her in her parents kitchen. He was like a man obsessed. I’m so glad he did what he did by stealing Ava for Carson’s debt. The last few chapters had me doing crazy. Ava is one head strong girl and is perfect for Kingston. I couldn’t picture him being with anyone else but her. I must say, I might even have a tiny soft spot for Oliver now. Another great read. I’m so glad I was able to read the savage duet. It was pure perfection

I agreed to read this book, without knowing anything except the title. Honestly, I thought I was going to be reading a quick little children’s book. Imagine my surprise when I saw the cover! This was an amazing book! It was full of mystery, romance, and suspense. At the same time, it was not graphic. The story did not open with the viewpoint of a protagonist, or a neutral viewpoint, but rather from the viewpoint of the antagonist. There was humor mixed in throughout the book. And who can resist the antics of beloved canine characters?

This book packed just as much of a punch as the first in this duet. Ava is still being held hostage by Kingston but the action starts and things begin to change as the story goes on. I found the action and family/mob drama to kind of exciting throughout the story. The spicy romance level is off the charts but there is a darkness to it. The story had a fairly smooth flow throughout the whole piece. I found the whole duet to be good overall. This is definitely mean to be read together, not as a standalone.

Mission Improbable: Vietnam (Blanche Murninghan Mystery, #3)Mission Improbable: Vietnam by Nancy Nau Sullivan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in A Blanche Murninghan Mystery series. I haven’t read the books previously and didn’t realise it was part of a series. The fact that this was book 3 didn’t stop my enjoyment as it is possible to read it as a standalone.
This was a interesting mystery story filled with adventure, danger,hidden secrets and also a journey of self discovery as our main character Blanche learns more about her father.

When Blanche is approached by a young woman to help find her mother in Vietnam she is happy to help. While she is there she is also hoping to find out the truth about what really happened to her father all those years ago. However things won’t be straight forward and as Blanche starts her search it becomes clear that there are some things people want to remind unknown.

This story was really well written and the authors attention to detail and historical events really brought this story to life for me. I can’t wait to go back and read about the other mysteries Blanche has solved in the first 2 books.
