Treasure Hunt (Grandma’s Closet) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Jayme Raffauf

Treasure HuntTreasure Hunt by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a good kid’s book that is a fun story about recognizing different types of treasure in your life. Treasure Hunt is the fourth book in the Grandma’s Closet Series. Very age-appropriate vocabulary for newer readers and would be an easy read for early elementary kids. A cute story about Carrie and her hunt for treasure in unexpected places using the dowsing rods she found in Grandma’s closet.

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #5)Fearless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m writing this review with mixed emotions. This by far was the best book in the series. I smiled, I cried, I rejoiced when things worked out for everyone. However, I’m so sad the series is over. I’ve enjoyed getting to know the Bennett family and falling in love with all the characters. Definitely a series I would recommend to other romance lovers and I’ll probably read it again. Thank you K.G Fletcher for giving us such a beautiful story.

Dark Sky at Dawn (Free Men and Dreamers, #1)Dark Sky at Dawn by Laurie L.C. Lewis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

My knowledge of American history is limited to my children’s social study academia. This was a very interesting read for me where the author takes us through the post Independence times with such detail. Through the eyes of the two main characters , Jed and Hannah, the author cruises through the struggles faced during those times, slavery, freedom, espionage, war and corruption. The story is set in early 1800s and a lot of research has gone into this book , and the author has done a wonderful job seamlessly blending the history with fiction. This was a very informative read for me.

Dancing Butterfly (Butterflies Fly Free Series) by Debra Parmley

Dancing Butterfly is the second book in the Butterflies Fly Free Series and is a wonderfully written Historical Romance. Although this is the second book it can be read as a standalone. I loved everything about this Historical Romance set in 1920’s with gangsters, flappers and dancing. I can totally picture myself living in that time period. What will happen when gunmen open fire and Suki finds herself hurt and frank rescuing her more than one time. When she is offered a lifeline will she make the right choice? I loved this story and couldn’t put it down until I finished. I devoured it in one sitting. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Test of the Four: Book Two of The Serrulata Saga by A.E. Bennett – Review by Tausha Treadway

Test of the Four (The Serrulata Saga, #2)Test of the Four by A.E. Bennett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Test of the Four: Book Two of The Serrulata Saga by A.E. Bennett. I have loved this series. Its a sci fi, dystopian with a little romance thrown in which is not my favorite genre but this series has sucked me in. It picks right up after book 2 and the four have just crossed the border and escaped the Realm. Once inside after not having a lot of problems crossing it seems they run into every problem possible. They have enemies but find a few allies along the way and Leopold ends up hurt. They are chased, captured, in different times and places, fighting with everyone and it seems like they are in constant battle. There is a lot of sex in this book as well, vivid sex so be aware. Its a fun book to see the growth and development of all the characters and see what happens to them. The writing is so well done that I felt like I was inside the book with the characters which is always amazing. I do recommend reading the first book to get a good read on all the characters and the story itself. This is a pretty long read so be prepared for that. Its well worth it

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, Book 5) by KG Fletcher – Review by Jenni Bishop

Fearless Love: A Small Town Second Chance Single Mom Romance (The Bennetts of Langston Falls)Fearless Love: A Small Town Second Chance Single Mom Romance by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fearless Love is a contemporary romance and the fifth wonderful book in The Bennetts of Langston Falls series by K. G. Fletcher. K.G. is one of my must-read authors and I am always on the lookout for more of her work. Make sure to read them all or you will be missing out on the lives and loves of the other Bennetts. Having said that they can be read as standalones.
I can’t believe we are already at book 5 in this series, and this is the last book. I’m going to miss these characters. This sweet story is filled with fun, love, passion and pain, struggle and loss, drama and tragedy, and heartache. The chemistry is off the charts, and it is sexy and steamy.
Langston Falls is a beautiful small-town that feels familiar. It is where family, love and great characters reside and is full of southern charm.
This is a second chance single mom roommates turned lovers’ trope and is James and Sara’s story.
James is a little grumpy, but he has longed to have what everyone else in the family has. Sara has to think of her son, but she can’t resist the sexy man who has come into her life.
I loved the banter between these two, the laughter to be had and family.
KG has done it again.

Murder At Music Hall (A True North Murder Mystery Book 1)Murder At Music Hall by A. J. Ullman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was my first novel by the author and I am definitely hooked! I can’t wait to check out the rest of his books! This was a fantastic kickoff to a new series; we meet True, a retired homicide detective, taking a private case that should be fairly straightforward. Instead, True has to deal with so many twists and curves throughout the novel. The author does a great job of drawing you in immediately and hooking you into the story. This is definitely a story that will hold your attention to the very last page and keep you enthralled. True has to wade through so many complex situations as well as multiple people trying to keep him from the truth. Definitely a must read for murder mystery fans.

Critical Care is the sixth book in the Chase Care Series. This is a Romantic Suspense that had me turning the pages till the end. I love me a good Medical Romance and this one definitely checks all those boxes. This whole series has been amazing and im definitely going to be rereading in the future.

I think this series gets better and better and this is my favorite yet. This is Tim and Willow’s story. He’s the Facility Director and seasoned pararescue jumper. Willow is a strong woman who is trying to get ahead on her past and bad relationship choices and is a traveling nurse. She’s got a healing heart and lots of passion for her job and patient’s.

This is another great children’s book to add to your collection.

On her first day of business, an elderly woman, Esther DeLeon, and her nephew, Trey Dunmore, walk into her store, to inform her of a fashion show featuring clothing from the early 20th century at Esther and Trey’s family home, Carver House. Tess agrees to model, but does not expect to be swept up into a mystery that nobody knew existed. The story had always been that Edward Carver had killed his young bride, Phoebe, on their wedding night, and then himself. However, Tess discovers, through flashes of history brought to her by touching belongs of Phoebe’s including the gown that she is to wear for the fashion show, as well as from Phoebe’s diary, that the story that had always been accepted, may not be accurate. When Trey begins to have similar visions, though he is not open to them at first, the pair must try to sort out the mystery as well as their own feelings for each other and rather or not they are being influenced by the feelings of the deceased couple. This is an excellent book, with great characters and world building. This is both a mystery and a guaranteed happily ever after with ghosts and supernatural elements to keep you guessing.

Marcy Alexander helps her mom, due to her arthritis, works two part time jobs, at a deli and at Divine Vintage, and has gotten herself roped into helping with costuming for a local theater’s production of The Importance of Being Earnest by a friend, Justine, who was going to do the work, but ended up going out of town with her husband to Hollywood to consult on a movie. When Marcy walks in, the director, Mike Figueroa, has minimal faith in her abilities because she is an unknown in the theater community. When his lead actress disappears, and she is also asked to step up and read lines, initially for practice, then for good, he is surprised to find that she has many talents. Marcy has an ability to see aura’s, which she didn’t have before her boss at Divine Vintage, Tess Burton, discovered her ability to see visions of the past by touching objects that once belonged to or were used by, the people involved. When Marcy goes into the costume loft and discovers a bright light that has no known source, she realizes it is a spirit trying to communicate with our world to find peace. With the help of her friends, Justine and Tess, along with Tess’s husband Trey, Marcy must try to figure out why this spirit needs her help and how to help her.

I absolutely loved reading the conclusion of Cole and Riley’s story. Riley has done everything to get under Cole’s skin. Even when they are now living under the same roof since their parents are getting married. Cole wants to absolutely destroy her, but he can’t help the feeling that has wormed its way into his heart. The conclusion was amazing and was like fireworks exploding. Their ending was well-deserved and fitting in my eyes. I was a little sad to see their story end because I had gotten attached to them. But I can’t wait to see what else Isla has in store for her readers next!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this author and this series! And Out of Bounds doesn’t disappoint. The author has a wonderful way of suckimg the reader in and having you feel for one of the characters m. In my case, this time around is Bax.
Bax is unique. Wears shirts with off the wall sayings on them. Has a playful seriousness to him. Yet he’s a big Teddy bear. One who may have just met his match. Piper was definitely unexpected but she’s who he wants. Unfortunately besides a hook up she keeps rejecting him.
Piper’s been put through the ringer. To the point she’s swore off all relationships. However Bax rocks her world in a way she can’t stop thinking about him. However her past has her sticking to her stubborn streak of no relationships. Though she decides that random hook ups could be the solution.
Will those random hookups lead to disaster?
What happened to Piper that she’s unwilling to give Bax the benefit of the doubt?
So many questions and lots of answers. I look forward to more from this author in the future. If it be this series or outside of it. Now it’s your turn to enjoy.

This is the fifth book in this series which I have enjoyed reading from the first book. I highly suggest reading all the books in this series as they are just as great as this one. This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. This author’s books are engaging with characters that bring the story to life on every page. I enjoy this author’s writing skills as well as their attention to details that make the characters pop. This is a well written story about Willow and Tim. Both have things in their lives that threaten to turn everything upside down. What happens with these two you don’t want to miss for sure. They are connectable, relatable characters that not only have great growth but chemistry as well throughout the story. This is a fast paced, hard to put down story that I enjoyed reading and just might be my favorite of the series. I highly recommend this book.

Critical Care is a romantic suspense tale and the sixth book in the amazing Chase Care series. Each book gets better and better. Make sure to read them in order so you don’t miss out on all the goodness of the other books.
This story is a fast paced, medical romance thriller that had my heart pumping and I found myself on the edge of my seat in more than one occasion. There is drama, emotion, chemistry, spice, danger, suspense and the tension rising and your emotions on high. It is nonstop thrills and action in this enticing story.
I have said it before, but I will say it again Robin has cleverly woven together another story that you are unable to step away from. I found I was at the end before I knew it because I was so engrossed in the story,
This is Tim and Willow’s story, and I am in love with all the characters. I love the alpha men and strong women.
Lives are on the line as drugs are tampered with but that doesn’t stop Tim and Willow jumping in to make things right but in doing so, they put their lives on the line as well.
I love this series and the anticipation of what is to come is exciting. I want more.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having read and enjoyed the previous books in this series I was looking forward to this latest medical romance and I was not disappointed. I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading this page turner of a novel and was hooked throughout. Tim Holland is a seasoned pararescue jumper along side being the facility director at Chase Care in Washington, DC. Willow Colson is a travelling nurse who is running away from her past bad relationships. The couple have been dating, but when Tim faces a life threatening personal battle it makes them both realise how much they mean to each other. Tim and Willow become involved in a medical mystery when Chase Care discovers that some chemotherapy drugs are being tampered with, resulting in countless lives being put at risk. The couple join an unlikely alliance with a man from Willow’s past in order to find out who’s behind the drug tampering and put a stop to it. Once again I was immersed in the world of Chase Care through the descriptive narrative which brings both the characters and the setting vividly to life. The storyline was full of drama and suspense whilst the plot twists kept the story unpredictable. It can be read as a standalone story, however I personally recommend reading the whole series as the characters do crossover. I look forward to book seven.

The author does a fascinating job with details in his story and really brings out the details. I hope to see the rest of the series come out in audio.

The illustrations that accompany this story are so beautiful and really do complement the story well.
I can’t wait for more adventures from Cray and his friends!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Nessie and the Celtic Maze” by Lois Wickstrom is an enchanting and adventurous tale that takes readers on a journey from Loch Ness in Scotland to Lake Memphrémagog in Quebec. The story follows siblings Craig and Linda as they find themselves embarking on a quest to help Princess Sheona, Nessie’s daughter, who is trapped in a crumbling stone maze.

The author portrays a vivid and imaginative world filled with mystery and magic, where the mythical creature Nessie is not the only fantastical being to encounter. The characters, including the frightened Angus and his giant sister, add depth and humor to the story, creating a rich tapestry of personalities that readers will easily connect with.

Wickstrom’s writing style is engaging and immersive, drawing readers into the story from the very beginning. The pacing is well-done, keeping the plot moving forward and building suspense as the siblings navigate through the maze to find Princess Sheona.
