I really enjoyed this book. It is a story of how opposites attract and enemies become lovers. The glamorous singer, Leah, has a hidden history. Dominik, who is in the Bratva brotherhood, tries to steal from Leah, but it gets botched. Now he needs to find out Leah’s history in order to have leverage over her to keep her quiet. This book has romance, suspense and keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole way through.
**BOOK CONTAINS TRIGGER WARNINGS** Holy hell! I could not stop reading this book! This is the first I’ve read of Lindsay Murray, but it definitely won’t be the last! The thought that she has put into her characters, plot, setting, descriptions, everything is just phenomenal. She sucks you in from the beginning and doesn’t let you go. I absolutely love the way she deals with the dark and heavy topics of mental health, abuse, kinks and proclivities, etc. She does it in such a professional, yet normal and relatable way. There is no shaming of any kind. And I am very impressed with the way she took the time to put the trigger warnings at the beginning of her book and she goes into detail about them so the reader is very aware of what they may come across and can make an informed decision about whether or not to proceed. Murray has my utmost respect for that. I love the dynamic between Reuben and Alice and how as a reader your heart is jerked back and forth between the two. You’re mad at one for what they are doing to the other…then you’re mad at the other one because now they are being an idiot. It’s just magical the way Murray can make you feel all the feels for these characters. Just know that you will cry, cuss, cry some more, be happy, be mad, be heartbroken, and be happy again…all within a matter of chapters! I cannot recommend this book enough! I had to find out what was going to happen but I didn’t want the story to end! This book will not only make you face your deepest, darkest desires, but also your deepest, darkest demons.

This is such a sweet book. Kellie has a lot of spunk and will make you laugh and Harrison is relatable and sweet. Be prepared to laugh, cry, and just have a good time while reading this book. Plus who can resist a HEA!

Quinn is a Princess, an Omega, and comes from old blood, strong blood. And she’s a princess on the run. Her parents sudden demise caused her to flee, knowing she must do everything in her power to protect her family’s secret. Even if that meant tying herself to a stranger. Prince Kieran is intrigued by Quinnlynn. Although he’s one of the oldest of his kind, he had never met anyone quite like this Princess. Her offer for marriage after sneaking into his realm was too good to pass up. And so began their twisted love story.
Lexi C. Foss has written a beautiful paranormal love story with mature and dark twists.

I am all for second chance romances and true love winning out but I didn’t want that with this book. I am Team Princess. I loved Josh and Mavis together when they were younger but I didn’t want them together now. The book was really good and well written. I will definitely read more books from this author.

Brilliantly written and based on a true story this book was one for the heart. Based in World War II, it is the story of a young girl’s life when the Nazi’s invaded France. A tale of courage, hardships, family ties and the fight for survival. The author has given a voice to past with a sensitivity that is to be admired. I was drawn into the story from start to finish. Highly recommend.

The fifth book in the Titans of Manhattan series and we have Alessia and Kristopher’s story. Kris is an interesting Titan as he is the one who is already settled down, but not in a happy way. This book is a contemporary romance with the Titan stamp of darkness (some trigger warnings) and steam. I have loved all the books from this author and I look forward to more.

4 Stars Dragonslayer Dragon Heart (Dragon Heart Book 1) Audiobook by Isobelle Cate
Dragonslayer Dragon Heart is the first book in the Dragon Heart Series (Audiobook) and I absolutely enjoyed listening. From the very beginning I was pulled in and I found myself caught up in the story. The narrator did a fantastic job of bringing the characters to life and keeping your attention. The different tones pulled me in and had me on the edge a couple of times. There’s definitely some chemistry between them. What will happen when the one man you fall for turns out to be the who was destined to kill you? Saxton and Orelle will soon find out what their destiny has in store for them. I highly recommend listening to this fast paced, action packed Fantasy/Romance to find out what happens next. This is a new author to me but I’m definitely looking forward to reading more from them.

This book is book one of the trilogy. This is a new to me author but I couldn’t get enough of this book! I can’t wait to see how the rest of the series continues.
This story is a second chance romance but it’s not as simple as that. Love never is though. I don’t want to give too much away because honestly, you just have to read it but there is lots of emotion and secrets. The dynamic between all of the characters really pulls you into the story. Mavis left to spare Josh but confided in his brother, Austin. Josh will stop at nothing to fight for what he knows he deserves. Even if that means going against his brother. What choice will Mavis make?
I was sucked into this book! It was so engaging and I felt invested in the characters and the outcome. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
This is the first book I have read from this author and she now has a new fan. I love a good teen romance but she exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book from the Modern Day Fairy Tale series. I was hooked from the first page and I could not put it down. I would love to see this on the big screen one day. I can’t wait to see what she is going to write next.
Ashley Adams is not your typical girl. She helps her evil step mom at the mortuary. Ashley has only a couple of friends because she is an outcast.

The story teller makes the story and the narrator for this audiobook is proof of that. A smooth, mellow, and enchanting voice flowed chapter by chapter and I enjoyed listening. I loved the story of Apollo and Orelle. You could feel the intensity of their chemistry and attraction beyond the fated pull between them. Tensions are high as they both harbor the secrets that link them. Apollo is determined to regain his soul… but he has to go through Orelle to reclaim it. Has the dragon met her slayer, and will fate determine otherwise?

The Naget family have a motto “We do what must be done” and I am here to tell you I completely agree because what must be done is you MUST read this book! I know I have mentioned in previous reviews I have written when a book has had me captivated from start to finish and while that is very true with this book what was even more meaningful to me was that my whole heart was fully engaged in every single written word. I don’t know for sure that even in my most vivid imaginings I could truly understand what this family has gone through but this extremely talented author presents this story to us in such a way that we are given the best opportunity possible to ever understand and feel this families experience. Thank you for opening and expanding my understanding.

A vampire seeking retribution. A witch who doesn’t know how to mind her own business. Will their newfound love survive the curse?
Master Romano has one task: settle the centuries-old land feud between the vampires and witches, once and for all. It will be far harder than anyone thought.
Especially, when he meets a sassy witch who captures his attention. The magnetic attraction draws him to her as though she were put on earth just for him. But she has secrets of her own.
Raven should be scared out of her mind, both by what the fanged lord of darkness wants to do to her, and how the coven will react if they learn she’s been helping the enemy who would like nothing better than to get rid of the witches for good.
But that’s far from her greatest problem. When the Consulate suspects Raven of being a spy, Romano is ordered to end her life to prove his loyalty.
Will the king of darkness turn against the woman he loves to maintain his seat on the Consulate or choose her as his mate instead?
Master Romano is the explosive fourth book in the Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia Black. It is a deliciously dark, fated mates, forbidden love, vampire romance. You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. While the books in this series are standalones that feature different couples with a guaranteed happily ever after each conclusion, they are best read in order.

We are the ones who walk barefoot through hell, making it out the other side with nothing left except sheer will and a whole lot of grit in our pockets.
By losing everything, others hailed us as beacons of hope. Our journeys were by no means glamorous. Each of us left an important part of ourselves behind so that we might start anew.
We are the survivors.
This is our chance to grab happiness by the horns and make it our own.

I was diagnosed with clinical depression after the loss of my mother, father and husband within three years of each other; all to cancer. 24/7 in-home care, coupled with the loss I felt, left its mark on my psyche.
Depression takes up a lot of my life. Reading and writing are the only things I have found that help (in connection with regular medication), even if only for a short time. To escape to a different world can make a big difference in my mood in real time.
To put things in perspective, when I was at my lowest point, I couldn’t open mail, talk on the phone, or even drive to the store. Walls of sadness surrounded me. As they closed in, tears would fall. There didn’t need to be a reason or trigger.
People ask me why I started writing. My answer is simple: I wanted to create a world into which other people with similar problems could escape. I wanted to share the one place that had helped me for many years.
I have always said that as long as one person finds a little bit of happiness out of my books, I am, in my opinion, an accomplished author. The same is true for every writer out there. Please don’t ever let anyone tell you different.
I read books as well as write them and have visited the worlds many different authors have created. Those worlds not only make me feel better, but give me the strength to face real life again. I want to thank everyone who writes—I want them to know they are making a difference.
Fast forward to today…

Azreya, Aztec Princess: An Illustrated Mythology Legend by Tricia Copeland is a wonderful illustrated historical fantasy interwoven with mythology, mysticism, and gives a window into the Aztec culture, daily life, and their religion- with beautiful illustrations which help to bring this story to life. This adventure is really well-woven, as expected from this talented author, and I love the mysteriousness and intrigue that came with all the Aztec elements. The scene-setting and world-building are first-rate! Ms. Copeland’s attention to detail, clever and imaginative touches, and wonderfully descriptive details succeeded in pulling me into the story and making me feel like I was right there experiencing everything alongside the characters. As I have discovered previously, Ms. Copeland is a talented author who never fails to deliver a complex and captivating story. Matt Maes beautiful, bright, and intriguing illustrations definitely helped to take this story to the next level. Hope to see these two talented people collaborate again! Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Copeland has in store for us next!

You definitely have to read these books in order. So, all these .5 in the book numbers and more than one prequel is doing my head in so let me try to get it straight.
Insatiable Darkness is Book 0.5 in the Vigilant series and the prequel to Caged Fire Book 1 both are EmVee’s story.
Unbreakable Darkness is Book 1.5 in the series, but actually takes place at the same time as the first two books. It is Dexter’s story and is actually the prequel to Scepter of Fire Book 2. I know there are other books but I will worry about them later. Hope this helps.
These books are YA paranormal supernatural stories mixed with fantasy and science fiction. There is adventure and suspense, betrayal and mystery, danger and sacrifice, paranormal beings/creatures and magic and much, much more in this fast-paced and action-packed tale.
Dexter finds himself staring Trouble in the face more than he likes but unfortunately it seems to find him where ever he goes. Now it’s time to face it head on he only hopes he survives to tell the tale.
It took me a while to get into the flow of these books but now I am intrigued.

Azreya, Aztec Priestess is a book for YA’s aged 12 plus. It is a mishmash of paranormal/fantasy, historical fiction, legend and mythology. With shamans, monsters and gods there is a little bit for every YA paranormal fantasy lover.
It is a novel with illustrations done by Matt Maes that help bring the story to life.
Tricia’s passion for the subject matter shines through in the narrative.
It is a journey back in time when the Aztec were thriving but impending doom has been foreseen. Little is known about them and their ways but Tricia helps us learn more about them as we journey along with Azreya who is fighting to help her people thrive and survive.

This book was absolutely incredible. This wonderful author keeps intoxicating me with her books.
Peg’s an injured vet that has always been the brooding angry looking member of the Satan Devils. Not one to be crossed. On the inside, he secretly wishes he could have an old lady and children someday like some of the members of the club. No one has ever turned his head enough to keep anyone as an old lady. He fears a life of solitude is his future.
Darcy is a fire woman and has worked hard to prove she is as good as any man. Since she is used to working with men, she is always out to prove herself worthy of her place in the department and she is darn good at it.
So much happens in this book that will keep you captivated and reading into the night. You will be shocked and appalled by some of the scenes but are necessary to the character enhancement. You will cheer for Peg and Darcy as they struggle to do what is right. This is a MUST read book.

This is a new to me author and I enjoyed this book alot. It was definitely very angsty and I didn’t agree with all of the choices made by the mcs but I was looking forward to seeing how it all played out as the story progressed. We get to see if love really conquers all and some the hardships people go through for the ones that they love. I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future! Happy Reading!
I Loved You Yesterday is a raw emotional journey. This second chance contemporary romance is a love triangle where brothers are involved. Yikes! It is fast paced with lots of steam, passion and drama. This tale is complex yet beautifully woven together to give the reader a story that will stay with them.
Although I fell in love with the characters there were times I didn’t know if I wanted to hug them or throttle them but all in all they are really well written and relatable.
The heart wants what the heart wants.
This award-winning debut novel has thrust Julie into the limelight in a spectacular way and I know once readers have gotten their hands on this book, they will fall in line waiting for what comes next, I know I will.
Can first love overcome time, secrets, challenges, and having to choose between twin brothers? I Loved You Yesterday is the first book in the Trading Heartbeats Trilogy by Julie Navickas. This is the first book that I have read by this author, so I really didn’t know what to expect from one of her books. But as I love a great second chance story I took a chance and snapped up a copy and I am so glad that I did. This proved to be a wonderful second chances romance, with a bit of a love triangle, secrets, heartache, challenges, some angst, drama, and plenty of emotion. Bring on Book #2- “Love You Today”! Happy Reading!

This book was a great read. I enjoyed how the author used the common language from the time period and country in which the book took place. It was not one of those books where the author says it takes place in Europe, yet all of the mannerism and speech is just like it is here in the U.S.
This book is entertaining and fun getting to see the story unravel from the perspective of both of the characters. The author does really well with the descriptions of the area and the characters, making it easier to visualize what is happening. Also witnessing how they affect each other and help the other one grow.
This book follows the story of a girl that has loved a boy for years and finally gets a chance with him. Their relationship did not start out how you would expect a normal relationship to start. Although you will learn throughout the story that Anna is not your average woman of the late 90s. She is headstrong and determined to make her keep, rather than being a kept woman at home.
Phillip is a smart and well of man from a highly respected family. Has known Anna for ages but never saw anything there until an unexpected event occurs. How does this man develop feelings for an independent woman that is decades ahead of the times for women? You will just have to read this amazing book to find out.

Peg’s Stand: Satan’s Devils MC #6 by Manda Mellett Narrated by Sierra Kline and Logan McAllister Five Stars
This by far is my favorite Satan’s Devils book, but I tend to say that with every new book Ms Mellett writes. I have been waiting for Peg’s story. It was definitely worth the wait. Darcy is the perfect woman for Peg. She is a strong woman who encounters and surmounts obstacles along the way. This book is narrated by Sierra Kline and Logan McAllister as have been the prior books in this series. They work well with each other to bring the characters to life. The voices are easy on the ears. I look forward to listening to more books narrated by them in the future.

I absolutely loved this one. I never hesitate to pick this authors books up, and when I saw this one was on audio I had to have it. It had me laughing and crying and that’s how I know I really liked it. Brings on all of the emotions!! I really enjoyed the narrators. They did a great job and I enjoyed the way they brought this story to life. I will definitely be looking for more audios narrated by them asap. And of course more books by this wonderful author. Happy Listening!

Donna McDonald is a new author for me. I enjoyed listening to the story. Never is a Very Long Time is the first book in the series, The Perfect Date. This is a romantic comedy about dating in you 30s, 40s, 50+. Mariah Bates owns the Dating App that matches mature adults with each other for Perfect Dates. The fun ensues as she tries to stay one step ahead of her vindictive ex-husband. Detective John Monroe may turn out to be Mariah’s Perfect match. This is the first book I have listened to that used synthesized audio. To my surprise it was great, and would definitely listen to more audios like this.

This entire series is full of intrigue, passion, violence, loyalty, love and family. Each book has shown a budding relationship between the men of the Five Families of the Chicago Mafia and their incredibly loyal relationships between each other. As the families have continued to grow, there is a quick rundown at the beginning about who is who, and who they belong to – I always appreciate those.
This book focuses on Mia Tucci, a New York mafia princess who holds no love or loyalty for her own family – as they never had any for her. She was a tool, a pawn – her entire life. Used to make men feel stronger. On the plus side, she was always well taught to protect herself and trust her instincts – as well as ignored in most instances, so she can witness the horrors her father and stepbrother have been committing. They run a sex traffficking ring and Mia has finally decided she has gathered enough information to take them down, assuming Nico accepts her offer.
Nico is the “last brother standing” in regards to meeting the love of his life, and he’s ok with that. When he turns on the beach at their family safe house to find Mia Tucci pointing a gun in his face, he doesn’t feel afraid for his safety so much as he feels interested in what she may have to say. When Mia lays out her plan, which includes marriage to Nico, he accepts the responsibility of protecting her but they have ground rules to set.
Together, they realize they are attracted to one another, drawn to one another, and care for one another. There is danger, romance, drama, violence, family and love from all fronts in this book of the series. There are also some darker topics, so trigger warning for those. I couldn’t put ANY of the Mafia Elite series down and have reread them several times. Do yourself a favor and read these books!
This was an amazing read! I feel like I haven’t read a book this immersive in a while. The beginning was a little slow, and it took several chapters and some intrigue for me to really get invested but wow! I felt like I was right there with the siblings the whole time. The world building is just incredible in this book. The gorgeous cover drew me in but the immersive writing made me stay. I highly recommend reading this one if you’re a fan of fantasy! Slight trigger warning on blood, violence and some abuse though so be wary if you have those triggers. I can’t wait to see what happens next!
