Killer BlondeKiller Blonde by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved every minute of this crime mystery! From the first page, I was captivated by the authour’s flow and competent ability to draw the reader in close. The writing style was completely engaging; the plot grabs you immediately, and the fluidity is masterful. I was hooked and settled in to read happily.
Our hero, Investigator Cade Dawkins is smart and loveable – he is a standout among officers, and notices the pattern in killings before anyone else. As he pieces together clues to solve the brutal murders, the mystery winds in on itself, and he seems to be the only one that can untangle the web. As the game of cat and mouse races toward the finish, we increasingly have to wonder – who is the cat , and who is the mouse?

I wholeheartedly recommend this book for crime and mystery lovers, or anyone who appreciates an amazing storyteller and writing.

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After #2)Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Second Chance Spirit: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance is the second book in the Haunted Ever After Series by Carrie Pulkinen. If you haven’t read the first book in the series I would definitely recommend you start there, as this is where we first meet these characters.

Tina and Trent already have a history and a whole lot of chemistry! Tina ended their relationship when things started to get too serious, so she’s a little surprised when Trent requests her help in selling a house. But, as is the way with these things, things don’t run smoothly and they are soon caught up in more than just their feelings for each other.

I am already a fan of Carrie Pulkinen, she manages to make her stories engaging, action-packed, sexy, and a little spooky. This book is easy to read and has the fun and humour running through it that I have come to love from this author.

At All (Adams Brothers, #3)At All by Mindy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Adams Brother’s series.I loved all these stories. I love how the brothers are single and proud and all it takes is one woman to change that and change them for the better. In this book we follow the youngest brother Sebastian Adams.
With his two brother’s happily settled down and his mum due to remarry Sebastian realises just how lonely he is.

However when he makes an alcohol infused mistake that leads him to rehab he has to give up his old life style. That means no touring with his band, no drinking and no women.

He seems fine with that after all music is his passion and if no women means he can get back touring with his band then so be it.
That is until he meets Maelie.

Maelie is a teacher at the store where Sebastian is now working. After a bumpy start between them and a few arguments over noise their attraction becomes too much to bear.

One kiss is all it takes to turn Sebastian world upside down. Should he be entertaining entertaining idea of being with Maelie? How can a woman be more addictive to him that alcohol? Can he be the type of man to have a relationship with a women like his brothers do?

Bound by Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops, #2)Bound by Secrets by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bound By Secrets is the 2nd book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series by Amy McKinley. I have been a huge fan of Amy McKinley’s writing since I first read the Gray Ghost series and I always love when she releases a new book for me to indulge in. I had loved the first book in the Deadly Isles series Twisted Secrets and was looking forward to reading more about the Hale Brothers.
In this book we get the story of former Navy SEAL Jaxon Hale and his former best friend’s sister Kayla Kane. Jaxon and Kayla had spent one night together as teens and hasn’t seen Jaxon since she moved away following the death of her brother. Now he has Kayla back in his life Jaxon is going to do everything he can to make sure that she doesn’t ever leave him again.
I loved Jaxon and Kayla’s story. It’s a fantastic second chance romance with a lot more thrown in. Amy McKinley’s stories are always full of danger, intrigue, mystery and passion and Bound By Secrets is a fantastic example of her amazing storytelling talents. She has the amazing knack of being able to grab you straight away with the story and keep you gripped and entertained right up to the very end.
I’ve given every book of hers I’ve ever read 5 stars and this will be no different. This book is definitely worth the 5 stars. Highly recommend!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 Stars

Where Flowers Bloom by Nikki Vale was a really thought provoking and emotive read. It is a bit of an historical romantic suspense- with some paranormal elements, where past, present, and future connect- leading the reader on an intriguing mystery that had me up way past my bedtime, as when I began the book I had only intended to read a couple of chapters to get a ‘feel’ for the story before going to bed… but one chapter led to another and soon I was so deep into the story I just had to stick with it and follow along to find out how it all played out in the end.
Nikki Vale is a new-to-me author, and after reading this book- I will definitely be on the lookout for more of her work in the future.
Quick and easy reading. Interesting and thought provoking story. Well developed and intriguing characters. A ‘clean’ read. Well worth exploring!

Thank you, Nikki Vale!

Vengeance: Sundown Series, Book 5, by Courtney Konstantin
4 out of 5 stars
Konstantin is one fantastic author. I love the Sundown Series. Konstantin has continued to bring us amazing stories, and this book is no different. This post-apocalyptic story is a great addition to this series but can be read alone. However, as a lover of books, I recommend reading any series in book order. Max is a strong woman who suffers a seriously tragic accident that changes her world. It is hard to describe what goes on in the book without giving too much away but know that this story is both suspenseful and highly emotional. I rarely cry in a book, but this one had me holding back some sobs.
I recommend this book for YA, dystopian fantasy, mystery, and thriller. I highly recommended. 4 out of 5 stars.

Hell In A Handbasket (Life is Hell #3)Hell In A Handbasket by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the ‘Life is Hell’ series and I couldn’t be more ecstatic to be reading more of Naomi’s fabulous writing! Since falling into this series it has really been a wild ride.
The series started with Delilah moving into a small town and falling into the hearts of Malakhi and Caspian then goes into depth about Sheridan and Millicent’s sweet tale and then enters Teivel and Oren. I really enjoyed the first book ‘No rest for the wicked’ and the second book ‘Hell hath No fury’ stole my heart but this book…well it grabbed me by the front of the shirt and wouldn’t let me go.
I found Oren so easy to love, much like Millicent. He’s gentle, sweet, caring and I love reading his internal thoughts about being attracted to Teiven. Teiven is a demon and is easy to hate but still wanting more from him. Meshing these two fire crackers together… I never knew how badly I needed their chaos in my life.
I found this series to be so entertaining and I can’t praise it enough. The characters are a work of art, the writing is divine and I want more!

Hell Hath No Fury (Life is Hell #2)Hell Hath No Fury by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I couldn’t be more grateful that I fell into this series. I took a chance on a demon story, thinking that was all that it is. I couldn’t have been more wrong. I’ll be honest when I say the first book ‘No rest for the wicked’ caught my eye but this book stole my heart.
I fell in love with Millicent, the deputy and adorable human, from the first book. She’s easy to like and I knew there would be growth to her. Another character that comes back in and makes a grand appearance is Sheridan, Delilah’s eccentric friend. The story explores these opposites lusting after each other and having no idea what to do about it either.
I love the LGBTQ+ representation from book one and book two. I’m also falling in love with Naomi Valkyrie’s story telling. For I adore how she writes high tension between characters and leaves you waiting for what will come next.

Even though I’m drawn to all things supernatural, I must admit, I have not read many demon stories. But there is always a first time for everyone and I couldn’t be more happy that I took the plunge and found this gem!

A Hole (Alpha Bet Guys Book 1)A Hole by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was a little worried when I read the description of this story because it didn’t really grab me, and I thought that I was going to be bored. Happy to report that I wasn’t, this story is funny and sweet and absolutely delivers on its promise of a good laugh. I actually think it’s quite difficult to write genuinely funny stories, but Alexander nails it.
Ace is a comedian and Ella Craig is a bank teller, not exactly what everyone would call a match made in heaven, but Ace thinks she’s wonderful and wants her to realise how wonderful they could be together. He invites her to one of his comedy shows and bets her that if he can make her laugh then she has to go out for a drink with him. But Ace’s four friends, with their best intentions and somewhat questionable advice, may threaten to put a spanner in the works for their budding romance.
I genuinely liked this book and Alexander writes her characters with flair, Ace’s narrative was quippy and fun and was perfect for a cheeky comedian. With Ella’s narrative her you definitely got her sensitive side and her reluctance to trust people, and she is funny too. It’s a lot subtler and less in your face than Ace’s which I think I preferred. Again, I recommend this story and would read more of Alexander’s work especially if I want a laugh.

Hungry Business: A Short StoryHungry Business: A Short Story by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a very short story about dating whilst trying to avoid zombies. It was rather bizarre as it is written in 2nd person, and to be honest it’s not a style of writing I really enjoy.
The story takes the reader through a series of dinner dates, whilst trying to avoid being turned into a zombie.
I got the feeling that it was reflecting on dating in general, and that dating is dangerous regardless of potential zombies, that you have to be careful of the situation you put yourself in.
I liked the ending, it really suited the story.

Ace is just getting his career on the comedy circuit but once he sees Ella in the bank he feels he needs to get to know this woman.

Ella is flattered with the attraction and accepts the bet which Ace has placed down but when her friend explains that Ace maybe a player, Ella’s decision changes.

This story is full of humour and is a brilliant short story, the characters are well developed as usual and although this is a short story it does not feel like that, you want to know more. The story revolves around Ella and Ace, with him trying to make her laugh but with her insecurities on high alert as to will she be the butt of the joke.

I love Phoebe’s writing style and this is not the first book I have read and it surely will not be the last one.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bound By Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops Book 2) by Amy McKinley has secrets, tragedy, an abusive ex-boyfriend, family relationships, and some twisted logic in the part of one character. This book is about Jaxson a recently retired Navy Seal and Kayla who finds herself in an abusive relationship and runs away to hide. Jaxson and Kayla have unresolved feeling for each other from when they were kids. The night they finally got together as teens, Kayla’s brother died in a tragic accident and things got kind of messy. Although Kayla was holding onto a lot of anger and hurt, she reaches out to Jaxson for help with Roy and how much danger she is in.

The story is well written and kept my attention. Jaxson and his brothers were in the first book so it was nice to have that background. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

A young woman is trying to find that someone special but will they be warm or cold when she finds them is the question broached by this short story. The horrors of the dating world and the horrors of being a human in a zombie-infested world make a new twist on the traditional first date story. This is a very quick read with a bit of horror and humor. I really enjoyed this quick read and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Climbing The Walls (Hart & Cole Book 1)Climbing The Walls by Sacha T.Y. Fortuné
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found this book interesting to read because it deals with the harsh reality that marriage isn’t always perfect and happy…it takes a lot of work!
Kris and Nicole’s story is told from both sides….which took a couple chapters to get used to. However, once I did, I found it intriguing to see the story from both sides. Kris is in love with his wife…but wishes she would give as much effort to her family as she does to her job. Nicole is a workaholic who is trying to please her boss, at the expense of her family.
There were times that I found myself disliking both Kris and Nicole…only to come to the realization that this is real life. Relationships take constant work and failure to work at it, or let it sit idly on the sidelines, will cause to to begin to crumble.
This book is not a quick read…but it is worth it. I would set the book down and come back to it to see how their story would conclude. It just drew me in and I felt invested as the story continued. Overall, a good read!
