The Perfect Duchess (The Macalisters, #2)The Perfect Duchess by Erica Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Perfect Duchess (The MacAlisters Book 2) by Erica Taylor is an enjoyable and easily read historical romance story. There is danger and kidnapping, lies and deceit, blackmail and attempted murder, scandalous affairs and intrigue that made for an interesting journey. I am not usually a lover of historical romances but Erica has done a great job with this series and has managed to hold my interest. There are a lot of twists and turns that keep you on your toes and the story flows nicely.

Andrew has had a lot put on his shoulders at an early age. Unfortunately his character along with it but when Lady Clara once again appears in his life he slowly realises that he is allowed to have more. He doesn’t need to be what he thinks everyone expects.

Clara has been made the town gossip by someone who should love her but somehow despises her. If it weren’t for a certain Duke and his family she would be dead or a social outcast.

This is a charming romantic read that is a little scandalous and intriguing. I am excited to read more about the rest of the MacAlister clan.

SHATTERED LOVE (The Forever Us Series, #1) BY NIVIA BORELL – REVIEW BY MELISSA AGENA

Shattered LoveShattered Love by Nivia Borell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Such a complex book! Book one in the Forever Us Series by Nivia Borell is Shattered Love. This book was written with such great poise and descriptive manner. This author really takes you on a journey of deep feeling and emotion. Shattered Love follows Bria du Mont on her 25th birthday and the encounters of the past. Bria was meant for Damien du Sky. From the time that they were little, they were tied by such a great bond. That bond being an immense forever kind of love. One that they thought was impenetrable. But on the night of her 18th birthday the unspeakable happens, which destroys everything they are about. Damien catches Bria in bed with another man. However, Bria doesn’t remember it happening at all. At that point, Bria goes into the hospital from a heart attack. Damien finds himself in a bottle and the chase to be the very best CEO. For the next 7 years Bria drowns herself in work and finds herself incapable of having any feelings whatsoever. So she starts planning to disappear so that she can no longer hurt the ones that she loves any longer. Like I said before, this book is complex and has so many facets to go along with it. It’s a book that you need to pay attention, otherwise you will miss something. Good news is that the writing envelops you and you can’t seem to pull yourself out because you keep wanting more and more. I can’t wait for the next in the series!

Shattered Love: Book one of the “Forever Us” series by Nivia Borell – Review by Michelle Austin

Shattered LoveShattered Love by Nivia Borell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shattered Love was an emotional 5 star read. This is Bria and Damien’s story.

We start with Bria having a birthday party. A party that will allow her to say goodbye. Without him she has nothing. No one can save someone who has no intention, will, or desire to be helped.

Damien had his heart broken by Bria, but he decided to come to her party anyway. He had to see her, something was different about this party. Seven years ago, I found the love of my life, my best friend, my soulmate, my future wife in bed with someone else.

We get a look at past and present told in both POV’s. Damien turned into a heartless playboy, no one knew who he was after everything happened. When we learn about some of the things that Bria went through, my heart broke for her. Don’t expect flowers and sunshine in this book, emotions run high. The secondary characters added a great element to the story, some were terrible. We end on a cliffhanger of wondering what choice Bria will make. I will be waiting impatiently for the next book in this series. This is my first read from Nivia Borell and I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading more from her. Well done on your debut.

By: Betty Shreffler
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Claimed Royalty (Crowned And Claimed #1) by Betty Shreffler was a fast pace, action filled, hot, engaging read, that had me hooked from start to finish.

Not my first read by this author, so I knew going in that I was in for some deep emotional evoking writing. I was not disappointed in the least. Another superb book by Betty Shreffler, I was captured from the first paged and stayed hooked until the very last word was read. Rich with a complex plot, and multilayer characters, this book was not only fun to read, it connects your heart a soul to an amazing world that Betty has created.

Both MC’s are well written and I fell hard for both of them. Fiora was a strong, stubborn, outstanding character, that I connected to almost right away. She truly shined and carried this story in a ways that enchanted the plot and added a layer of realism, that not only makes you believe in her, but that the world she has to one day rule, is real. Matheas was that perfect match, loyal, passionate and solid in his beliefs. He was there for Fiora, and he also shoned and help carry this story towards amazingness. Having two such strong MC’s is a rarity, and I believe that it’s one of the factors that sets this book apart from others like it.

Overall if you haven’t guessed, this book gets my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Happy Reading

Jenny and Brian have me ready for a relationship. I really enjoyed this story so much has happened so far. The characters have grown so much. From Brian’s no romantic relationships to Jenny finally learning to trust. The author has really brought these characters to life. I love the dynamic between the couples. Their bonds are strong and goal worthy. This story is definitely for you if you love guys willing to do whatever it takes to care for their women no matter what.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shattered Love (Forever Us) by Nivia Borell is a five star novel. As a debut novel, you never know what you will be getting into. I loved this book. The first book in the series makes for a page turning, painful memory of how Damien and Bria used to be and a look into what they could’ve been. As childhood best friends, they fell in love at a young age. They promised themselves to each other until that day. When Damien thinks Bria has broken his trust, he leaves and doesn’t look back. At least he doesn’t want to. They both go into a downward spiral of distrust and fear and they pay with individual crises that they have to work out for themselves. I am excited for book number 2!

The Light at DawnThe Light at Dawn by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Thankfully this review is being written on a laptop and not paper, because after reading this story last week my tears are just now stopping enough to type. My heart is heavy with sadness. But my heart also has room for hope. This story hits close to home, as I have school aged children as well as a gun in our home. Of course, it is safely put away from these teen-aged children. This story really touches on a few different, hard to talk about situations. Situations we see in the real world. The names may have been changed but this could be a story about you, me or even someone we know.

I have read Montgomery before but never have I ever read such a well written story. Never has any of her books made my heart feel like it does now.

Please go buy this book, even if you can’t read it just yet. Have it waiting for you when you need to let your tears fall. Have it knowing that there is a fantastic story waiting when you are ready. You won’t be sorry.

Pandora’s Poison (Hart & Cole Book 2)
By Sacha T.Y. Fortune
5 Stars

Pandora’s Poison by Sacha T.Y. Fortune is the second installment of the Hart & Cole Series. It is a contemporary romance story about Darren and Luisa. Their tumultuous marriage is full of mistrust, jealousy and infidelity. Sacha has written a real-to-life situation that will take you into a journey through this couple’s life and how they cope and interact with the obstacles that are thrown their way. The story is written in an alternating POV which gives you the raw emotion each person is feeling after every scene. This story took me through a roller coaster of feelings and emotions. I also sympathized and related with the characters as a person that dealt with infidelity in her past marriage. There are moments in the story that are so raw that I felt that the story was written about my past marriage. What will happen between Darren and Luisa? I guess I will have to wait until book 3. I highly recommend this book and series, which should be read in order so you can get the back story on the characters. Can’t wait to see what book 3 has in store for Darren and Luisa.

Claimed Royalty by Betty Shreffler
4 Stars

This is book one in the Crowned and Claimed series. Fiora is soon to be queen. She must face certain trials before being crowned. A suitor from each house is presented to her for courting. She must choose one to be her future husband. Are they there for her, her throne or her coveted virginity? She must choose between her duty to her country and her duty to stay true to herself, for her heart belongs to someone else.

If you are prudish, this is not for you. This book is so hot, it steamed up my windows. Just because Fiora is a virgin doesn’t mean she doesn’t have needs and she indulges them every chance she gets. The author truly knows how to write erotic scenes! The story reminded me of the Bachelorette, with everyone vying for her hand in marriage. The story was interesting, the intimacy was exciting and the author added danger with spurned love. The action at the end will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you hanging with a whopper of a cliffhanger.

Claimed Royalty by Betty Shreffler is book one in the Crowned and Claimed Series. I am familiar with this author’s writing so I grabbed this book based off of the fact that I have enjoyed everything I have read so far. Claimed Royalty was no exception. I admit I got the book based off of the awesome cover and author so when I opened it and saw the first page was a glossary I wasn’t sure how I would feel. I skipped the glossary and got started and I was not disappointed, this story pulled me in from the beginning. I was surprised by the amount of sexual tension and acts that happened but they were all so well written. I am definitely looking forward to the next book to see what happens next. Fiora is a young princess who just wants love and to be the best queen she can be. Her best friend and lifelong body guard is all the temptation she doesn’t need and then enter in 5 suitors who want her and the crown, things start to get steamy.

I just couldn’t put it down my jaw is still currently on the floor, I’m utterly gobsmacked with how fantastic this storyline is.  It really pulled me in and played complete havoc with my emotions. This story really shows how life can change just like that and your world can be turned completely upside down. I think one thing this story does do is make you open your eyes and realize you shouldn’t take things for granted, live every moment as it can be taken too quickly. Absolutely worth the read!!!

Surviving Grace is an amazing story that takes tragedy and learning from it. Virginia Wine has become an author that I enjoy reading. Ms. Wine really takes her characters to a new level. She involves her past characters that were in earlier books and gives us a snapshot of what has been going on in their lives with in the later stories. This story is about Grace. This story tugs at my heart strings. The emotions run high. I suggest a box of Kleenex and plan out some time so you can finish the story in one sitting. Grace has a brutal past that she is learning about. She understands that she needs to deal with the past before she can move forward. Will Grace allow time to heal her soul or will she be overcome by the darkness she is learning about?

Caught in Make-Believe (The Caught Series Book 3)Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caught In Make Believe is the 3rd book in the Caught Series by Sharleen Scott. Each book in this series can be read as a stand-alone. As characters from the previous books appear in subsequent books, and the fact that this series is fantastic, I would recommend that you read the whole series from the beginning and read them in order to get maximum enjoyment.
Sharleen Scott writes amazing gripping romantic thrillers. Having loved the first 2 books in this series I couldn’t wait to read this one and I was certainly not disappointed. I devoured this book in a few hours, I just couldn’t put it down.
I loved that we got snippets of Clay and Harlie, and also Tom and Tallie from the previous books but I just loved Jace and Samantha’s story. Both are broken and have troubled pasts and neither of them are looking for a relationship. Jace is still coming to terms with the murder of his wife 5 years before and Samantha is just out of a broken engagement. Both are amazing characters that you can’t help but fall in love with and you are rooting for them to get their HEA.
However in true Sharleen Scott fashion, nothing runs smoothly. Jace’s wife’s killer is still at large and has found him. This puts Jace and everyone he loves at risk. The author does a fantastic job of building up the tension and leaving you on the edge of your seat right up to a climactic finale.
I’m seriously praying that this is not the end of the Caught series as I’d really love to read more.

Bound (The Torzial Affair Book 2) by Via Mari is the second book in the Torzial Affair series and you really need to read book 1 to understand this book. It’s the story of Jenny Torzial & Brian Carrington, who we met in Book 1.

Jenny and Brian are just getting to know each other and really have feelings for each other when Jenny is accused of killing her ex Ty. Ty had ties to the Mafia so they are after Jenny as well. Brian is doing everything he can to keep Jenny from spending the rest of her life in jail but money can’t buy everything. He’s also being told that Jenny is just like all the other girls and just wants him for his money. Will Jenny be found guilty of murder or will she be found innocent. Will Brian let down his guard enough to trust that Jenny really cares about him or will he believe all the lies being told about her. It’s such a good series and each book gets better. I can’t wait for the 3rd!

I can already tell that it is going to be an amazing series and I cannot wait to read the next book!
The author took me on a fantastic journey where I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. The characters were amazing and the story richly detailed. I LOVED Fiora! She was a fantastic female lead – she was feisty but had such care and compassion for her people.
Matheas, oh be still my heart! I am totally in love with him! He is 100% on my book boyfriend list!! I’m going to be honest I was rooting for him completely!!
There are some great twists and turns in the story and it is full of action! I cannot recommend this book enough and I am eagerly awaiting book 2!!!

Shattered Love is the debut novel from this author and overall I thought it was a good read. When I first read the blurb I wasn’t sure the direction the author would take the story, which for me was good as I didn’t know what to expect. The flow of the story was a little hit and miss at times and I think it was affected by the switches between past and present during the book. I can tell though that this is going to be an author to watch.
Bria and Damien’s story was quite emotional and it was definitely full of drama and angst. I really struggled with Bria at times, I didn’t always agree with her choices but there were glimpses of a nice person underneath also.
I will definitely be looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

This is my 4th or 5th book by this author and I just can’t say enough about how much I absolutely love everything she writes. Every story has me hooked and this one was no different. I was shocked because this did not turn out to be like I thought it would. I was actually a bit hesitant after reading the synopsis but reading it was a given because of this author.

I was so pleasantly surprised. This was awesome and the beginning had me wrapped and it never let go. I fell in love with Lani and Max even more once the story got going. It was Max that worried me but I should have known this author would take great care in her characters and make them real and somewhat broken.

I loved the ending and am completely satisfied with this whole story. I can not wait for another book by this author. Just love her!!

The story Little Do You Know (Bayou Devils MC Book 5) by A.M. Myers is a romantic suspense book. It is a story and series that I truly love reading. There are steamy scenes included and my emotions went up and down all throughout the book. I enjoyed reading about the character of Noah LeBlanc. He is a man who has recently regained his freedom and is now looking for the girl he loves. No one has heard a word from Kady Sinclair for a very long time. Read this book to find out what happens when Noah goes looking for her. This is a story that at times had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I also enjoyed the feeling of brotherhood and family that Noah and those in the Bayou Devils have. They have friendship and comradery. They care about each other. This is a story that has intense and romantic dialogue. It hooks you in early on and doesn’t let go until you have read the final page. There are both heartbreaking and heartwarming moments that you read about in this book. This is a story that will have you believing in true love. Don’t miss out on a wonderful book that has amazing characters. I highly recommend reading both the story and the series.

Dancing Queen by Charlotte Roth was such a great story to read. It is inspirational, uplifting, humorous, witty, interesting, and fun. And again, Ms. Roth showcases what a versatile and talented author she is in this captivating read. The story, for me, was all about courage, facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, believing in yourself and being true to yourself, following your dreams, hope, and mending relationships along the way.
This book has become one of my favourite reads of Ms. Roth’s, and is so worth the time to read!

“Working in the shadows was a cold dark place.”

 

“She was a federal agent who lived to uphold the law. He was a killer who’d die to keep her safe.”

 

A Cold Dark Place is the first book in the Cold Justice series by Toni Anderson, and WOW, what an intense and intriguing read this has been!! I loved it! The story is a romantic suspense- with mystery, a serial killer (or two), danger, shocks, twists, emotion, heart-stopping action, gruesome and chilling details…. and so much more. I was completely riveted by this compelling story and couldn’t put it down, devouring it in one sitting. This may have been my first read by Ms. Anderson, but I can guarantee that it won’t be my last!
Mallory Rooney is an FBI agent with a passion for justice, who’s on the hunt for a serial killer. But her investigation brings up some perplexing questions that seem to point to a vigilante on the loose. She’s determined to find him and bring him to justice. Mallory has a bit of a dark secret that weighs on her soul- her twin sister, Payton, was kidnapped when they were nine years old. And now 18 years later, she is obsessed with finding the kidnapper and discovering what happened to her sister.
Alex Parker is haunted by his past, a man lost to the demons that drive him, a lone wolf with a tonne of baggage. He’s a covert operative working for a shadow organisation called The Gateway Project, as an assassin. He is tasked with hunting down serial killers and putting a stop to them, permanently. His latest case brings him into Mallory’s life, and bringing more complications than he could ever have imagined. As he gets to know her, he can’t help feeling protective of her, and wanting to help her. Especially when a serial killer seems to have her firmly in his sights. But would an FBI agent and an assassin ever really have a chance of finding happiness together? This is well worth the read to find out!!!
Brilliant!

Thank you, Ms. Anderson!

Little Do You Know (Bayou Devils MC 5)Little Do You Know by A.M. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another homerun from A.M. Myers. I continue to love reading this series and finding more to love about this MC club and the characters that fill it. Myers continues to masterfully weave these stories with relatable characters and captivating plots. This story flowed easily and I couldn’t put the book down until the last page was read. If you like MC fiction with romance sprinkled in, this book and series will not disappoint.

Little Do You Know (Bayou Devils MC 5)Little Do You Know by A.M. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Little Do You Know is book five in the Bayou Devil’s MC Series written by A.M. Myers. This one hit me hard with the story. Kady has been through more than anyone. Noah has been locked up for the past 6 years, so he has missed a lot, mostly his soul mate Kady. Once he gets out he won’t stop until he finds her and makes things right, or at least figures out why she never visited and disappeared. This is probably my favorite book of the series as it has the perfect mix of sadness, regret, loss, determination, love and sex. It balances out well and the ending made me want to cry again. I’m looking forward to reading more and seeing where else this series will go.

Rebel Heart (Immortal Kindred Series Book #2) by Clara Winter – Review by Angela Hayes

Rebel Heart (The Immortal Kindred Series #2)Rebel Heart by Clara Winter
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Rebel Heart is the second book in The Immortal Kindred Series by Clara Winter. It is a paranormal romance, with vampires, supernatural themes, suspense, action, drama, intrigue, and a touch of mystery. Again, Ms. Winter spins a captivating tale, which is an original twist to the vampire theme.
This book is Annie’s story whom we met as Millicent’s friend in book one. We get to discover so much more about her, and how she got to where she is. The story spends a lot of time in the past, as we follow Annie on her journey. I really like her as a character and was engrossed in her story. There were a few surprises that I didn’t see coming, and coupled with the incredible world building skills shown by Ms. Winter, made for a really great read.
As with the first book in the series, this was a terrific story, it was a little slow to get going, but the pace picked up and the story flowed wonderfully well. Ms. Winter crafted a story full of superb paranormal elements that were entirely believable and made the whole story ‘come alive’. I am really looking forward to the next book, due out in July this year!

Thank you, Ms. Winter!

Rules of EngagementRules of Engagement by Mika Jolie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love love loved this book! I have read a few books by this author already and this is for sure one of my favorites. It was sweet and cute and who doesn’t love a good friends to lovers romance.. I can’t get enough of them.
Lucas… oh sweet sexy Lucas! (Can I keep him? okay? Glad that’s settled!) He is a single dad who is going through a NASTY custody dispute with his horrid ex-wife. His lovely daughter currently lives with him but if the ex gets her way that all will change. That’s where Kate comes in. She is Lucas’s best friend’s sister and they’ve come up with a plan to help Lucas keep custody of his daughter.
Such a good story line with a few twists and of course a whole lot of chemistry! The author’s writing is fantastic and I am looking forward to reading more by her! I would recommend this one to a friend!
HAPPY READING <3
