Elegantly Denim: An Elegant Prelude, by Tee Smith, is the introduction to the Elegant series. This contemporary romantic suspense sets the stage for the series in such a fashion that is intriguing. This novella will leave questions of where the series will take the reader, but it provides the peak into where the series will look to start. The character personalities were not fully detailed, but appeared flawed, yet beautifully done. After finishing this prequel, I am now deeply curious to see where this author takes me next through the series.

Imperfect Heart, Combat Hearts Book 4, by Tarina Deaton is a well written romantic comedy. This story of Zoe and Tim is absolutely hilarious. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the story began and the hi-jinks that follow make this a great novel. Zoe is a strong female character in this story, but she can’t deny that she needs help at some points. The question is, how much can she take and from whom. Then, adding Tim into the mix, and he has a protective streak a mile wide. Their personalities clash, but at the same time, the magnetism between them is undeniable from the beginning. This was a fun story throughout.

Lexie Conyngham’s Tomb for an Eagle is the first book in the Orkneyinga Murders series. This is a tale rife of mystery and suspense. Set in the past, it is eloquently written to align with the historical times. The author uses their creative writing talent to engage the reader in the story and maintain their interest page after page until finally you come to the final pages. I felt that the characters were flawless in their portrayal and fell within the story effortless creating a seamless experience in reading. Normally I may not have read a book within this genre, but something about it drew me in and I don’t regret it. I look forward to reading future books in this series by Lexie Conyngham.

Healing Danger, by Maddie Wade, is the first novel in the Fortis Security series. This romantic suspense is full of mystery, attraction/chemistry, and an amazing cast of lead and supporting characters. This author has created characters that each strongly stand apart from another without clashing within the story. Dane’s intensity in this story is the epitome of the alpha male. How he works to protect and support Lauren was superb. Not only was the romance in this book amazing, but the story sequence/plot was well thought out, put together and shared with the reader. It doesn’t feel thrown together, at all. Maddie Wade is a talented author that shines in this genre.
The First Backwards Christmas, by Brooke Williams, is a cute & quirky novella set in South Pole, Alaska. Jack and Joyce are a uniquely paired couple and their intricacies make this short story a joy to read. The holiday theme that is paired with this tale makes it sweet and perfect adorable in all ways. Such a quaint town experiencing issues that so many small towns face. How these characters attempt to resolve their concerns was a well paced part of the story.

My Tragic Life: Brothers of Camelot Prequel (My Life Series Book 2), by Necie Navone, follows My Hidden Life. Aless’ story continues and the author takes us deeper into her story, her growth both in ways she aspires to and those she does not, as well as, the emotional interludes that drive Aless’ on her journey. The strength that is shown in Aless is amazing, under no circumstance could most live or attempt to live their lives with the cards this individual has been dealt. Necie Navone is a strong storyteller and the way she has come at this series is remarkably done. She has created characters with individuality to stand apart, yet flaws that show you their strengths and weaknesses. This is not a simple tale, but one full of suspense, dynamic imagery and twists.

Virginia Wine’s Hard as Steel is book four in the Surviving Series. This contemporary romantic suspense is Steel Archer’s story. The opening scenes in the first chapter(s) immediately captured my attention. The characters each stood distinctly apart and made me inquisitive on each of them – to include who they are, what they are doing and their pasts. These are not simple, one-dimensional characters. This story is suspenseful along with the romantic elements that are tied in. There are emotional ties, raw and hard that are being fought, pushed upon and resisted. It makes a great story for Hard as Steel, not only for this individual story, but begging the reader to take a chance on the other books within the series.

Credence Woods, by Alexandria Sure, is a contemporary romantic comedy. This story was a riot to read, but at the same time, there is a lot of self discovery that is part of this story – moving on from the past and finding who you truly are apart from any misconceptions. I could not put this story down and read it in one sitting. I have previously read several other novels by this author and this one is my favorite, by far. Talk about one sexy alpha male that you can just feel the southern gentleman vibe dripping off of him – truly delicious. Kennedy is one independent woman that wants to stand on her own, not to obligated to another man – but you can feel that something about Max just changes all of that. This story was a ride I was ready and willing to embark, completely unforgettable!!
C.A. King’s Do Not Open Until Halloween is a young adult science fiction/fantasy story. The way the story unfolds is well told and full of magically driven characters. Enriched in details, this story quickly pulls you into the fantasy as the story is told. Creative and imaginative, Do Not Open Until Halloween is an addictive story you cannot help but to finish. Highly recommend this story as it is one I would definitely read again.

Must Have Faith, by Deborah Garland, is the second book in the Darling Cove series. This contemporary romance follows Faith and Greg, who were minor characters in part of the previous book in the series, Must Love Fashion. In Must Have Faith, the reader learns what caused the bride-to-be to bail on her wedding to the love of her life. Regrets, longing, misconceptions, second chances are what is delivered in this story. Faith is a strongly independent character, but she’s missing something in her life and that just may be Greg. Deborah Garland weaves a story of lost love, hope and renewal that is romantic and hard won. A beautiful story about how much love can truly overcome.
Amabel Daniels’ Across From You is a fun to read romantic comedy. Start to finish, this was a great book to read and the laughs keep coming. The story line was amusing and the characters out right hilarious. Did I mention funny? I could see these events play out in every day life, that would seriously be my luck. To read it on these pages, it was well written and the author found just the right mixture of comedy to add with the rest of the story to not make it too outlandish and far-fetched. The tension between Jack and Lexi can be felt. I enjoyed the tug and pull of the characters as their relationship. Amabel Daniels is a talented author that can deliver.

Deadly Alliance: A Fortis/Purgatory Crossover Novel, by Maddie Wade and India Kells, is the best of two romantic suspense series. Each of these series shine in this genre on their own, combined it creates a high thrill story full of drama, danger and some heavy romantic interludes. Very strong personalities are present in this story, that work well together. There is certainly some tension as the characters from the two separate series come together, but what else would you anticipate with them. The plot of this story was well done and I loved the flow, character development and the possibility of what more is to come from these two authors. A great suspenseful read for anyone who loves romance with some drama/adventure added into the mix.
K.L. Montgomery’s Romance in Rehoboth Boxed Set (Books 1-3) includes Fat Girl, The Flip and Plot Twist. I’ve read of the books within this set and each was thoroughly enjoyable – highly recommend. Here’s a summary of my thoughts of each of these books in this boxed set.
Fat Girl Fat Girl, by K.L. Montgomery, is Claire Sterling’s story. She is almost 40, divorcing her husband, moving back home, and veering back into the dating scene via online. However, she fears that she will always be a fat girl.
Most of us can relate to this story in some shape or form. We have all looked in the mirror at one point and seen ourselves as others do, some piece of disappointment in ourselves. A failed marriage with a cheating ex-husband and now being a single mom venturing back into dating trying for a new relationship. Insecurities abound and trying to find a way to respect herself and love herself inside and out.
K.L. Montgomery touches on real life issues. It is in your face, right there in front of you, in black and white on the pages. Claire’s character definitely has many roadblocks in her life that she has to knock down, move around or avoid. She’s courageous to move into dating at a later age and the unknowns of whether a person is truthful or hiding something. There were many times in the midst of reading this story that I wanted to sit right next to Claire and ask her what would you tell me… and then, don’t you think you should do the same for yourself?
Fat Girl offers several laughable moments. If you aren’t quite sure on your next book to read, I would recommend this book as everyone should be able to relate to some piece or part of this story.
The Flip The Flip, by K.L. Montgomery, is the second book in the Romance in Rehoboth series. This romantic comedy features Andrew and Sonnet with their relationship shifts from that of high school dynamics of dislike to something that changes in a way neither of them anticipated.
The characters are well developed and I felt that their chemistry flowed smoothly and was not forced. I honestly enjoyed their antics in the story. This author does a good job in their writing for this series/story. I did previously read Fat Girl, the first book of the series. The Flip was as good as the previous book and I loved the characters of Andrew and Sonnet. K.L. Montgomery is great at romantic comedies and kept me on my toes and laughing through this novel. The story was addictive and a true page turner.
Plot Twist K.L. Montgomery’s Plot Twist is the third novel in the Romance in Rehoboth series. The author overlaps several characters that appeared previously in the series in subsequent books as supporting cast members. I enjoyed how these characters overlapped between books. Within Plot Twist, the main cast includes Meric and Lindy; this romantic comedy has all the major elements, to have you laughing to wiping stray tears, to wondering what in the heck that last conversation was?! The build up in this story was well paced and created allure and intrigue into possibly where the author was planning to take these main characters and when they would peak and/or plummet. The story was fun, inspirational, and everything in between.

The Plot, by Melinda De Ross, is a romantic suspense with a revengeful cast of characters. This is not a clean and beautifully sweet romance, this is a story that is dirty and raw, touching on topics that you will not find in a happy little bubble. Yoko has experienced unimaginable events in her life and strives to find something more while destroying pieces of her past as they attempted to tear her apart. In comes Mark, like a knight in shining armor ready to defend her honor with his last breath. Is there light that can survive among all the dark that has fallen with Yoko’s life? This story truly shows what the promise of hope can give another if only offered the chance to grab on.

Bree Kraemer’s Say When is the ninth book in the Cedarville series. This contemporary romance continues the amazing series the author has created. Say When is Dani and Patrick’s story, certainly one of my favorites that I have read. The sweet factory of this story cannot be denied, especially when there is a bakery involved. Change is a theme in this story which features old and new characters. How these characters interact was fun to read, even how they struggle to find their footings and grow at times. Even though there are limited pages in this story, it was a pleasurable read and a great addition to the series.

Jesse, by Desiree Lafawn, is the third book in the Glass City Hearts series. This contemporary romance is well rounded containing a mix of elements to keep the reader intrigued and engaged. Each of the stories within this series have been unique, but have some overlap with characters between the books. In Jesse’s story we learn more about him. I really liked that he is such a strong male character, though we didn’t really get much of him in the others stories – just a small taste to peak our interests. Thoroughly enjoyed this read/series!!

Love, Christmas – Movies You Love is the second installment in the Holiday Series. This set features an amazing abundance of stories from a glowing cast of authors that deliver and do it well. Among my favorites within Love, Christmas are:
A Royal White Christmas by Leanna Banks A Royal White Christmas is set in the country where one small-town girl meets a friendly neighbor. They continue to connect and the chemistry these two have within reach of one another cannot be denied. This was utterly sweet and a perfect example of meeting your fairy tale prince in the most unexpected of ways.
A Christmas to Remember by Cynthia Cooke Seconds chances are possible, if circumstances allow. In A Christmas to Remember, the author has provided the landscape for what may be impossible to become possible. Fate has plans other than the characters anticipate and keeps pulling them together. Will they succumb to this or will they forge on the path they believe they need to be on? This was truly a holiday to not forget!!
Christmas with the Clouds by Suzanne Jenkins Christmas with the Clouds is not a story I anticipated when I began reading, truly emotional and raw. I felt for Tracy in this story and tears were hard to keep at bay. The author did an excellent job in creating a touching and story full of growth and potential.
Boyfriend Wanted for Christmas by Melinda De Ross It’ll happen when you least expect it. Nothing like a time crunch to push you to find something that has been elusive in your life. In this holiday story, the author provides the reader with plenty of laughs while looking for that “boyfriend” for the holidays.
I am always a huge fan of anthologies and this holiday themed set is no exception. Many of these authors I have not read previously and now look forward to reading full length novels from them in the future. These stories all pair well together in the theme and make a perfect holiday read.

Calling the Curveball: a Lawson Family Novel, by Tracey Cramer-Kelly, is a sports romance. From the beginning the author has woven the story with characters that are broken in some sort of way that touches the reader with their story. Two individuals who may not have necessarily found one another are brought together initially over a game of baseball, with its underlying theme throughout the story. Both Kira and Jamie are charismatic individuals with passions that seem to intertwine, but they each have their own faults that they are trying to live with and move on from. Emotional, touching, and well written, this story was filled with attraction, meaningful growth, and the possibility of a true friendship or even the hope of something more.

K.G. Fletcher’s The Nearness of You was a brilliant written romance with fantastic characters that shine within the story. Lauren and David set this story on full speed throttle and I’m amazed they didn’t catch fire. I couldn’t put this story down once I started and that’s a sign of a truly talented author. K.G. Fletcher’s ability to share a story with exquisite detail is right here waiting to be read. It includes a mix of everything but not in way that is over done. It’s finely tuned and I loved every minute of it.

My Hidden Life: Brothers of Camelot Prequel, by Necie Navone, is the first book in the My Life Series. This coming of age/crime fiction story was well written and an instant page turner. The author delved straight into the story leaving nothing left to chance setting the stage for where we begin and what is potentially to come. I enjoyed the flow of the story and it felt well paced. Alessandra is a complicated character and Necie Navone showcases that as this story progresses. I look forward to seeing what hurdles she encounters in the subsequent stories and what growth she will experience.

Must Love Fashion, by Deborah Garland, is the first book in the Darling Cove series. This contemporary romance is based on two individuals that work within the fashion industry – one more established than the other, but no less determined to find their place and make their mark. Gwen and Andrew were captivating characters in this story from their strong personalities and how they approach and tackle their goals. The chemistry that trickles is hard to deny noting it’s sizzling heat.
The past reflects in how they each approach others and the decisions they make. As things begin to shift in their environments, I really liked how the author allowed the story to play out and building it from there. Must Love Fashion was a pleasant read that I recommend for others who enjoy contemporary romances with a bit more depth, creativity and style.

The Boss, by Abigail Owen, is the first book in the Fire’s Edge series. This paranormal romantic suspense novel features dragon shifters and fire abounds! I liked how the author set the stage for the story and how events unfolded. The introduction of the main and supporting characters was thorough and not overwhelming, fitting seamlessly in. Finn and Delaney were perfect, from their personalities, to how they met and the sparks that were sizzling – it was amazing. The drama that is introduced into this story to set up the series was well thought out and laid out in the book. Abigail Owen immediately drew me into this story, garnering my interest and maintaining to the extent that I enjoyed it and I look forward to reading what’s coming next in this series!
K.G. Fletcher’s third book in the Southern Promises series is Georgia Pine. This contemporary romances is yet another well tuned addition to this series. The author’s words from the first chapter draw you in, fitting you within the characters as they progress from chapter to chapter. The combination of characters for the male/female leads would not necessarily be ones I would pair together, yet they work – they work well. I enjoyed Tim’s story – it was emotional trying and there was a lot of growth from him in this book while learning more about himself, what he wants and needs in his life, along with looking for more than what he has. I will admit that he is definitely one of the best male characters I have read in quite a while. It takes a lot for a particular character to shine and K.G. Fletcher has delivered that in spades.

Broken Circle, by Amy McKinley, is the first book of the Gray Ghost series. This romantic suspense is a great lead in to the series and what to expect from this author with these books. In Broken Circle, Olivia and Alex are the main/feature characters of this novel. The suspense and intrigue are well drawn on throughout the story and I felt tied to the characters as the story unfolded, from Olivia’s emotional state, questions as the come, and curiosity of what lays ahead for both Olivia and Alex. Amy McKinley is a talented author and it shines in the Gray Ghost series, from the character development, the story lines and the anticipation that is built within the stories – it all perfectly comes together in this book/series.

Eye of the Storm, by Amy McKinley, is the second book of the Gray Ghost series. This novel was a pager turner; the author has found the right mix of ingredients to deliver in this novel and do it well. Delving into organized crime and how that impacts actions of the characters within the story were laid out and seamlessly fell into the story. Chris and Mari were elementally aligned here, how they navigate around each other, around others, who they can or cannot trust, along with determining what they do and do not value. This story involved but emotional and physical journeys of survival. Both lead characters were strong. The Gray Ghost series is an unforgettable read!!

Amy McKinley’s Moments That Define Us is a Gray Ghost series prequel. The author sets the stage in this short novella introducing the characters and the events that started what’s potentially to come in subsequent books within the series. I found this story of Jack and his family enlightening, well written and insightful. Amy McKinley shares characters that are flawed, somewhat broken in their own unique ways as they fight to put their mark on the world and find their place. Even with the limited pages of this story, the author packed a lot in and it was done without feeling rushed or over done.

Jane Suen’s Alterations Trilogy includes: Alterations, Game Changer and Primal Will. This is a science fiction/fantasy/psychological series. I found this trilogy unique and quite enjoyed how Jane Suen tied this series together. There is a lot for three characters, each with their own stories, to be compiled into this short stories. We get a glimpse into their stories, but there was the potential for much more to be added and/or expanded into with each of the individual women.
Alterations: This is a story that will push your concept of what is possible and real versus what could be possible beyond our imaginations. This is about three women who are seeking change, but what they are seeking may not ultimately be what they receive. This was the first written work that I had read by Jane Suen and I was absolutely intrigued after reading the synopsis for this story.
Game Changer: This story pushes your concept of what is possible and real versus what could be possible beyond our imaginations. These women are seeking change and building new lives.
Primal Will: The author did an fine job in bringing a conclusion to this trilogy edging the line on what to expect and what could possible be forthcoming. Overall, I thought this was a solid story to delve into a unique story line with women from different walks of life each looking for a change that will make their lives better.

The Jack, The Immortal Series Book Two, by M.K. Harkins is a contemporary fantasy novel. I highly recommend reading the series in order so that you learn back history on several of the characters that are paramount, front and center in The Jack. The Jack is the follow-up story to The Reader. In The Jack, Asher takes the stage either to surpass all expectations or to fall into the depths everyone believes he belongs within. I thought I knew Asher’s character after reading the first book of the series, but M.K. Harkins quickly strips that away adding additional depth and dimension to his character. We continue on unimaginable journeys these characters are forced to embark upon in the chance of finding their happiness and something to strive for. The dynamic between the characters, whether friends, enemies or a mix of both, was well laid out. I felt transported into this story as the series of events occurs from scene to scene. The emotional attachment, the longing, the hope, it was all spectacularly written to the final chapters. M.K. Harkins is showcasing her writing genius in this series, it’s something to behold!!

Michelle Sullivan’s Our Next Chapter is a contemporary romance. This novel was a page turner through and through. Michelle’s style of writing easily captures the reader within the story and holds it while she shares a captivating story of ups and downs, loss and growth, regrets and aspirations with a second chance. I fell in love with the main characters as I was reading this story and thoroughly enjoyed how this author paces the story and showcases character growth and development. Karalyn and Dez are the quintessential high school couple where everything that could part them falls into place with their lives now set on separate paths. This story was a piece of literary art.

Joker’s Fool, Satan’s Devils MC #8, by Manda Mellett is a novel written with finesse featuring a M/M story between Lady and Joker. I usually avoid same gender romance plots/stories as they are not my preferred romance stories. However, I have read several other stories by this author and wanted to see how she tackled this story line. To say I was impressed would be under appreciating the talent exuded by Manda Mellett. This story held true to an MC theme while embarking into the M/M element and it was tastefully done. Joker and Lady each have their unique character traits that were well suited for them and complimented one another along the excursion it took them upon. There was such an underlying theme of family that stayed true within the story despite indications/inklings that things could change, you could feel it present. Well written, encouraging reader engagement in the story while maintaining intrigue. Another great story and characters by this author.
