The Lies We Tell by Brittany Butler – Review by Erica Fish

The Lies We TellThe Lies We Tell by Brittany Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!” (Sir Walter Scott, 1809).

The Lies We Tell by Brittany Butler is my first encounter with this author. I will say that I will read other books by her. She has an imagination that allows her to go between different time frames. Her characters are fully developed, and the story is told by the POV of Natalie. There will be some time jumps from Natalie’s past and her present. Sometimes it took me by surprise, and I had to reread to make sure I knew where I was in the story. One thing I thought was an interesting character trait of Natalie is that she is a self-proclaimed liar. I am not sure that I could believe in anything she ever said. This story takes you on a roller coaster ride and I never knew if it was for what was really going on or if it was made of lie from Natalie.This is a quick read novel and I recommend it for an interesting “get your mind off of things” read. I cannot wait to see other books from Brittany Butler.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Surviving the Storm by Virginia Win is the second book in the Surviving Series. Virginia Win did not disappoint in this story. She has a great depth of knowledge that allows her to put her emotions into her characters and stories. This is a contemporary romance story with mystery, suspense, lies, secrets and family dynamics all roll up into one book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In the Surviving Series, Surviving Eden is book one by Virginia Wine is a contemporary romance book. This is my first book by this author, and it will not be my last. The characters are fully developed, and the story line is so close to be true that I felt like I was with the characters watching while on Eden’s shoulder. There are some scenes that be a bit explicit for an audience under the age of 18. The story took me on a roller coaster ride of emotions. Eden and Theo both have had accidents in their past that that had them just going through life without meaning. Will Eden be the answer for Theo and vice versa? Or will the accidents in their lives steer clear of each other?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Cray Yates by Kimberly Packard is a fast short read that you will want to finish in one reading. This is not my first book by Kimberly Packard and will not be my last. This story was a major emotional story for me. There were high points and low points. The story is so realistic that I could see Callie being a close friend. This story gave me hope that there is some Christmas Magic left in the world. This is a special story with a young lady, Callie who lost her mother. Callie being the oldest sibling took upon the role of “Mother” to her younger siblings and she grew up fast. There are many things stacking up against the Yates family. Will Callie be able to get some Christmas Magic or will the circumstances be so great that things will fall apart? You will have to read this short story to find the answers.

Paladin’s Hell: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #1 By Manda Mellett – Review By Erica Fish

Paladin's Hell: Satan's Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #1Paladin’s Hell: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #1 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Manda Mellett did again with Paladin’s Hell: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado’s Chapter). I loved her other series of Satan’s Devils series. This new edition Colorado’s Chapter is promising. Manda Mellett is an amazing author who kept me engaged in the story from the beginning to the end. Her characters are fully developed and believable. I have found that it is sometimes a letdown when an author starts a new series with characters from a previous series. Not in this case what so ever. The story is fresh and has many new trials and tribulations. I love Jayden and Paladin’s story and the fact that Hellfire and Moira is a couple that they are living with is even better. Will Jayden and Paladin learn from Hellfire and Moira or will their relationship fall apart? You will have to read about their story to find out all the details.

Awakening Of A Soul Keeper - Prequel to the Soul Keeper SeriesAwakening Of A Soul Keeper – Prequel to the Soul Keeper Series by Brienne Dubh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brienne Dubh is a new author to me, and I have to say that I will be following her. Her book Awakening Of A Soul Keeper: Prequel To The Soul Keeper Series is a very intriguing story. Brienne has done an amazing job of character building. For each character, I feel that I really know and understand what each character is all about. I was pulled into the story relating to Theodora. It is a fast-moving story which helped keep my attention in the story and not in my surroundings. The story is about Theodora who is put into a world of vampires, lies, violence, and has found out that she is the keeper of her husband’s boss’ soul. This proves to be interesting because she is caught in situations that she cannot help to a point.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hope’s Defeat is the third installment of the Fated Series by Angela McPherson. This series is one that I will read again because I am afraid, I missed something. The world that Angela McPherson has created with her stories makes me want to live in her books (I know that is not possible, but one can dream). This story has all the same elements as the first two books, paranormal. Mythology, curses, gods and goddess, and light and dark. This story is a continuation of Trinity and Blain story. Trinity is trying to help Blain get out of his situation with the dark side of the road. She is willing to give up everything and I mean EVERYTHING for him. What will Trinity have to do to get the dark side away from Blain? Enjoy the story of Hope’s Defeat. Thank you, Angela McPherson for the Fated Book series.

Fatal Legislation is the second book in the Karina Cardinal series. Ellen Butler is an amazing writer who can keep me guessing throughout the story.

The Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands Story (Forgotten Woods Book 2) P.A. Wikoff – Review by Erica Fish

The Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands StoryThe Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands Story by P.A. Wikoff
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really missed the Tarnished Lands and I am grateful that I went back in P.A. Wikoff’s book The Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands Story. Wikoff does such an amazing job bringing me right into the story like I never left. His characters are a part of my friends in the sense of my book friends. The world that Wikoff builds is very detailed which makes it easy to picture in my mind’s eye. Wikoff’s character Lara is one of favorite characters. Lara is a feathered-folk who is looking for the breeze that once blew through the forest so long ago. It is Lara’s journey that I went on with her to seek out the truth. It has its ups and downs and twists and turns but never a dull minute within the story. This is a quick read so make sure you have all your goodies by you so that you can read it in one sitting.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bree Kraemer has written The Only Series and it leaves you wanting more. She does an amazing job of writing this series because it can be read separately or in the set of books. She introduces fully developed characters that you can relate with easily. You can see these characters in the real world who are your neighbors and not just in a book. I went through the emotional roller coaster with the characters. All the stories are laid back, casual, and at a relaxing pace. If you are looking for a nice series to read at your leisure this is the series for you.

Leaving Jackson WolfLeaving Jackson Wolf by P.A. Kane
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Leaving Jackson Wolf is a brilliantly YA Coming of Age book by P.A. Kane. Kane is a new author to my list of authors. He has an amazing way of telling a story, He brings you into the story from the very first page until the last page. It seems to me that there are many Coming of Age stories and most of what I had read is about a girl/woman. Now that does not mean there aren’t any about boy/man but I have not found many of them. This story makes you think about things you may know about teenage boy/male struggles. Kane provides this insight and I am thankful he did write this book. This story was breath taking, tearful, and emotional. I would recommend reading this story with a box of tissues because you maybe surprise how a teenage boy sees the world.

Snatching Dianna (Feisty Lawyers, #1)Snatching Dianna by Seelie Kay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Seelie Kay just took my breath away. Snatching Dianna is the story that I fear the most. I have three daughters and I fear that they will be snatched and made into slave trafficking/sex trafficking. This story (I know it is fiction) could very well happen. Seelie Kay made me want more and more but at times I found myself making cringing faces because of the content. There are many twists and turns which kept me on my toes. I do not know how long it took to read the book because I was that enthralled with the story line. Thank you, Seelie Kay I loved this story and cannot wait for the next book.

Snatching Dianna is a suspense, action, adventure, and danger. Dianna Murphy is a law student who is missing. Her law professor, Janet is worried as she found a piece of evidence that Dianna may have been taken by a slave trafficking cartel. Will Janet find Dianna or will it be too late?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brooke May is a new author to me, and I find that she is a great writer. In these times when everything else is going wonky, it is nice to know that there are books that can take your mind off things for a while and escape into a book. A Second Chance is that book. This book has it all, werewolves, action, heartaches, secrets, love, trust, and second chances. I can tell that Brooke put all of herself into this story. The characters are believable, and the scenery is beautiful. Story is about Derek and Annabelle. Derek gave his heart and soul to one lady. This is what is the norm, together forever. Once your heart is broken by your true soul mate it is hard to trust others with your heart. The walls are there, and they do not come down easily.

Souls Collide is a great read and I will admit I will be going to read the other books in the series as this is the first book I read. Kristina Beck is a new author to me and I would have to admit that I had not read her books before. She has developed characters, very descriptive scenery, and gives just enough details on the page to make you want to turn the page to see what happens next. The story is about Alexa and Kent. At first you get introduce to Alexa who you believe has everything going for her, but when she meets Kent she melts because now she wants him. Kent is the police officer with some bad happenings with relationships. Will Alexa get close to Kent to tear walls down or will Kent keep the walls up? Will Kent’s protective nature kick in when Alexa seems to have attracted a stalker? You will have to read to find out the answers to these questions.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have always enjoyed paranormal, fantasy, magic, thriller, and mystery books. Dia Cole Claming Her Mates is a great story. Ms. Cole has developed characters that kept my interest the entire time. I am not a huge fan of romance stories, but I do like the paranormal romance stories. Another thing I like about the paranormal stories is the only limitation is the reader’s imagination. I love all the twists, turns, bends, good, and the bad things that come with the territory of paranormal stories. This story is about Havana and three protectors. There is a problem on the horizon, and will Havana stay safe? Read on to find out.

A Pink Christmas Kiss by Allyson Abbott is a fun Christmas story. It is fun loving story about Billie and Leroy from small town USA. Billie hears the lights from New York City. Leroy stays behind. Billie goes home to help her family out. She runs into Leroy. Will destiny put them together again or will reality keep them apart.

One thing I really like about Allyson Abbott is that her series Christmas Kiss is that it is what you read is the story. There is not an underlying cause to pop up from nothing and make the story serious. This is just small-town love story. There are times when you will be laughing, crying, and cheering all in one. This is a simple quick read. For me this is exactly what the doctor ordered this holiday season.

Degrees of Power is the final book in the Prestian Series by Via Mari. I recommend reading the book in order as they pick up where the last one ended. Via Mari does an amazing job of pulling all the stories together. The stories have a mystery, passion, emotions, family issues, fear and romance. Degrees of Power has Kat and Chase together and continuing to look over their shoulders looking for their fathers. Even though they are running it seems like they have time for them. They have a steamy passion romance. You will want to read this story to find the exciting end of the story.

Claire Luana Confectioner Chronicles final book has me still thinking back to the first book. The Confectioner’s Truth exceeded my own imagination of how the story will end. Now if you have not guessed yet this is a series that you will want to read all the books in order. There are magic, secrets, skeletons in closet that show themselves, and danger around every corner. Wren is my book sister if I could choose to have a sibling. She is fierce and I enjoyed her character very much. You do go for a ride and it is a bumpy ride at that. So I advise to sit down, grab your favorite beverage, your comfortable blanket and read the The Confectioner’s Truth.

Greta Cribbs is a mastermind. Venganza has become one of my favorite books. The tone for this story is a dark thriller. Greta Cribbs does put a warning with this story. I would take it seriously as there are twists and turns around every corner. This story has elements that can shake a person right down to the foundation of their beliefs. Greta Cribbs has created characters that are fully developed and they are on a mission. This story is the prequel to Primogenito. That story tells the fate of Damian at the hands of his grandfather and uncles. Leo is Damian’s father. Renato is Damian’s grandfather who is punishing his father, Leo for leaving his family.

I personally love Allyson Abbott’s stories as they are fun and realistic stories. Her characters can be a part of my world. I really feel close to them. In this story, I love Elf (Emma Louise Fallon). I want her to be my best friend. She is trying to keep everything on the low down, but she is having a heck of a time. I hope you take the time to sit down and bond with Elf.

With each book, I learned more and more about Beta. She is a strong woman who should not be challenge. The story is an action and suspenseful full of revenge and second chances. E’mani kidnapped Finn, Beta’s brother and former lover and now Beta is in a race to save him from the E’mani. Will Beta find Finn in time or will the E’mani have their way? You will have to read this book to get the answers to these questions.

Rhapsody and Rebellion is the seventh book in the series but can be a stand-alone book by Aubrey Wynne. This is a historical romance book with drama, suspense, and second chances. There must have been research done by Aubrey Wynne to be able to write with such clarity with in the time period of this book. I am not one who likes to learn about history because of all the dates but I find this historical romance different. It is interesting when you see the history through another set of eyes. This story is about Alisabeth and Ian then Alisabeth and Gideon. Alisabeth is betrothed to Ian from the day she was born. She became best friends and from there the relationship went into marriage. However, Ian was not long for this world as he was killed one year during a battle and Alisabeth became a widow. An English Lord, Gideon enters into Alisabeth’s life and starts to court her. What becomes of that relationship I will leave you to read about it. It is a heart-felt read and it is beautiful written. It makes me want to read more book by Aubrey Wynne.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nikki Broadwell has a great handle on all of the subject matters she writes about and this one is no different. This would be considered a thriller, fantasy, magical genre book. The Moon in Her Eyes: a witch’s tale is a great story with vivid scenery and characters. This is the second book and can be a stand-alone story. I did not read the first story A Witch in Time Saves Nine (I am going to reading this book next). This is not my first Nikki Broadwell book and it will not be my last one. Broadwell sets the entire book up as though you are right in the middle of the action. Personally I find myself relating to her characters. Emeline, female main character, is a time traveling witch who can get into trouble if she is not careful. The story does shifts between past and present time (for the story) which could be a bit confusing. Emeline is trying to figure out her destiny, but is going about it all wrong. Will Emeline figure out what is going on so she doesn’t taper too much of the time line?

Alive is the first book that I have read by Courtney Konstantin and it will not be my last. She is an artist when it comes from her background scenery to her detail organization of her characters. I was so enthralled with this story that I found it very difficult to put it down. This is a sci-fi, zombie, a post-apocalyptic thrill that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I will admit when I was reading the jacket of this book that I was leery because of the zombie angle, but I was wrong as this zombie book is different than all the other books out there. The main characters are Rafe Duncan and Charlie Brewer. They work in a secret government facility. The plague breaks out in the facility and Rafe and Charlie has bigger problems. The zombies are hungry, the plague is killing everyone, and there is a group of government radicals who are on a mission to have everyone dead who worked in the secret facility. Will Rafe and Charlie be able to remain alive or will the zombies or government radicals find them first?

Dangerous Ground: Tina and Chase's StoryDangerous Ground: Tina and Chase’s Story by Alice Rachel
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dangerous Ground is part of the Under Ground series. It is the fifth book and should be read after books one through four. This book goes a little deeper into Tina and Chase’s story. The way Alice Rachel writes reminds me of a music composer. She starts with an introduction which is the same for all the books so far. The read is slow and steady, and comforting because it is familiar to the series. The main body is an “allegro” or a brisk walk. Tina and Chase’s story is like the allegro because Tina grew up in an affluent house. There was not a need for anything. Whereas Chase did not, he grew up in the poor community. When Tina and Chase get together they are going at the “allegro” pace. This means that the story is moving at a good pace and I could not wait to turn the page. All of the nitty gritty takes place here. This where the trigger points may happen: depression, suicidal thoughts, and alcoholism are talk about so if you are sensitive to these triggers you are aware that it is here where those take place. Then the “andante” or slow walking pace movement takes us to the end of the story. This is where the action slows down but still at a nice pace and you can see where Alice Rachel is going with this installment of the Under Ground Series.
