5/5 Stars

Blood & Vengeance: A dark, paranormal romance (The Casket Girls #2) by A.D. Brazeau

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. Blood and Vengeance is the second book in The Casket Girls Series. This story follows Desiree and finding her mate. You will enjoy this book if you’ve read the first one.

Desiree is one of the girls we met in book one. She got away from the demon that was assigned to her. She travels along with a friend’s mate as they hunt down vampires. Then she meets Jaxon and finds out that maybe all vampires aren’t bad. The quote I chose for Desiree is: “Maybe his aim is solely to survive. Why does it need to be more complicated than that? Not everyone is Rook, and not everyone is Sister Francis.”

Jaxon is a vampire who wants to learn a different way to hunt. He knows Theron knows of one, but he isn’t sure how to approach him. When he sees that Desiree is in danger he protects her and keeps her safe. He then presents his story to Desiree and hopes she can talk to Theron. The quote I chose for Jaxon is: “No, Desiree. There is no one here but me. Like Theron, I too am hunting down the remaining vampires. The one who attacked you, the one Rook assigned to you, he caught wind of you in the cemetery last night. I followed him back to your home, climbed the outside wall, and saved you just as you were about to succumb. I’m fairly sure he meant to knock you out, then take you back to his hidey-hole as a midnight snack.”

Highly recommended for Vampire Romance lovers.

Let It Be Love (A Mustang Prairie Romance Book 5) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Shelly Kittell

Let It Be Love (A Mustang Prairie Romance)Let It Be Love by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh my goodness, I found this book entertaining and so very romantic. Kiki and Eric are trying to figure out how to make their relationship work. They are dealing with Kiki’s fame. The struggle is real and I found the plot realistic and well-though out. No chunks in it. The characters felt like they could be straight from any small town. They were very easy to relate to. The author dealth with a couple of real life issues in the story which really helped give it that home-town feel. I found my favorite part after the romance was the twist with Louie and a can of whoop ass. There is also redemption in the story for some of the characters. This is a terrific story that gives you all the feelings. I recommend it for all those romance addicts out there. Excellent contemporary romance. It would get more than a 5 star from me if I could give it.

Princess of Prias by Courtney Davis – Review by Megan Watson

Princess of PriasPrincess of Prias by Courtney Davis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Elle is similar to most orphans. She feels misplaced and has a deep seated curiosity about her birth parents and where she comes from. When the woman who raised her passes away, she finds something that changes her life forever. She comes to find out that she’s actually an alien princess and the bulky hunk of handsome revealing this information is bound to protect her!
Locan is a warrior of the Royal Guard and is very similar to the Hulk when his princess is in danger or enemies are around. It will take everything he and his inner warrior has as well as blessings and guidance from the goddesses in order to fulfill his mission and get the Princess back to their home planet. He only has to make sure he doesn’t frighten or push away the Princess in the meantime.
This book was a super fun read. I fell into the story so easily and really didn’t want to put the book down when I had to. I could definitely read more about Prias if we are ever blessed with another journey.

Paige is on a mission to sign Mark up with her gallery. His painting of a stallion is beautiful. The problem is that he does not want that. He is wealthy and prefers rescuing horses. She thinks she has figured out how to get what she wants. He thinks he knows what he wants. Can these two get it together and realize they have some chemistry? They both have some baggage to bring to a relationship. They seem to be good for each other but will it work. Oh my goodness, I sure did enjoy this romance. They are a little more mature. The relationship seems to take its time. They aren’t the wham bam, thank you, bye type. I loved how they learned to value what each other did. The whole story lays out like a beautiful paining. My favorite part was the description of Mark’s cologne smelling so good that Paige wanted to lick him. That is a new description for me. A lovely story with wonderful characters. Any romance lover would love this.

Undeniable (Central Florida Stories Book 2) by Victoria Saccenti – Review by Dr. Anya Schultz

Undeniable (Central Florida Stories, #2)Undeniable by Victoria Saccenti
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Undeniable is a BDSM themed romance between Arley and Kurt (some spoilers). Arley and Kurt grew up as neighbors, but he is five years older and her brother’s best friend, while growing up. After the death of her father, Arley’s brother started to change, becoming more secretive and abusive; Kurt was always there though to soften the blow. They decided after her brother beat her up for the last time, it was time for them to move back to their motherland, Puerto Rico. Next thing you know, fifteen years have gone by and everyone is living their own lives. However, while Arley is living in Tennessee, as a teacher, she is attacked and kidnapped to join a sex traffick ring. Luckily, she is rescued, but has to hide out, which she does in Florida with a childhood friend. Little did she know Kurt, the boy she loved but could never have, was back living in Florida. After all her trauma, she wanted to get back to some resemblance of normal and get a job as a bartender at a BDSM club. Kurt happens to be a part owner of this club and their journey begins. He continues to be her protector as a group of men are trying to find and claim her, but during this protection their attraction grows and he brings her little by little into his world.
While I enjoyed this book I was surprised that there was more plot than BDSM. I really did fall in love with these characters. Arley is a strong, intelligent, curious, submissive woman (and I say that in a positive way). She mentally gets through all the crazy that happens by leaning on others and being open to different possibilities. Kurt, made a great dom in this scenario. He is a retired Marine who is a true protector. He is open with his feelings, doesn’t deal with the bullshit, is patient, and shows his caring side often. Even though, as you read, you can tell and hear the dominance in his “voice”, he knows the boundaries that people are capable of. He made Arley feel safe, loved, protected, and sexy as hell. Their relationship was truly enjoyable to watch as it deepened.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a fascinating story. Elle grew up not knowing that she is a princess of another world. When she becomes an adult, she learn s of it after the lady that raised her passes on. Quite entertaining due to the humor between Elle and locan as he tries to adjust to Earth to find her. Their travels back to her world are an adventure of intrigue and thrills. There is a bit of romance scattered throughout. I loved reading about the ladies that escaped in the pods to have their children on Earth. I found the characters well-thought out. They kept you wanting to know more. Elle and Locan had chemistry. You could feel the sparks. Warrior was a bit of a grump. The plot was out of this world (pun intended). An entertaining book that engages you from beginning to end. Fans of strong female character romance and fans of fantasy romance will love this story. A new author to me, I will be looking for more of her books to read.

Excellent!! This book was amazing. The characters were easy to fall in love with and the way the author describes the different planets and their inhabitants is so detailed, it really brought my imagination to life. I loved reading of L and Locan, and I was hoping the whole time that they would be getting together, they seemed perfect for each other. Leda, she really got on my nerves, but I think she came to like the princess in the end, at least that is what I hope. I wish I could have seen something happen to Sor, but the ending was perfection.

This is the second instalment to this series. Like the first I loved every second of it.
While Greer is dealing with things in the underworld, this story focuses on Desiree and Theron. These two are dealing with the vampires still in New Orleans. A new vampire comes along to help, Jaxon. He wants to help rid them of all the bad vampires and learn how to survive without killing. Jaxon also has a witch, called the Mistress, that wants him back no matter the cost. I’m ready to see how this continues.

Wow! This story is exciting, intriguing and steamy! Arely is a courageous and strong woman. She just speaks her mind as she thinks about it. Kurt finds himself falling for her. Can this romance survive the challenges she faces? The characters are all butt-kickers. They are strong and not afraid to fight to protect one another. The plot is strong and feels realistic. It felt like there was a twist in there. I loved being so engaged in the story that I couldn’t put it down. I gave the family stink eye if they bothered me. You can feel the emotion in the story. The anger, the happiness, the sadness, the lust, it’s all there…totally recommend this story.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this romance. Its a very sweet story about 2 people from quite difference lives but with 1 thing in common. Art. The author does an amazing job writing the characters. I especially love Paige. She is a very determined woman who knows what she wants and won’t stop until she gets it. Mark on the other hand isn’t as keen to enter the artistic world and would rather stay on his ranch rescuing horses.

When they meet the attraction between them is instant. However Paige wants to keep things strictly professional. We shall see how long that last.
When Paige turns up to ask Mark to paint for the gallery he is very reluctant. He paints for pleasure not profit but when Paige makes him an offer he can’t refused he gets on with the task.
To help assist him and check on his progress Paige relocates to Montana to be near him and this is where we see the attraction build and the connection grow.
The characters work well together. Both have pasts and history’s which make embarking on this relationship anything but a walk in the park.

Insatiable Darkness (The Vigilant Book 0) by LM Preston – Review by Barbara Bohls

Insatiable Darkness (Vigilant, #0.5)Insatiable Darkness by L.M. Preston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is in the YA genre and I feel that anyone would appreciate this book if they like supernatural stories. This book is a very quick read and can be finished in a day. The characters in this story have great depth and feel real emotions that any teen would feel in this type of situation. Moving to a new town can cause anyone some anxiety but throw in missing kids and it just hits different emotions. This is also a prequel to the series and I am hoping it will give some more background into the characters as the series continues. I felt a little disconnect with them during this story but not enough to make a huge difference. The mysteries in the book keep you hooked throughout and turning the pages to see what happens. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series to continue to build on these characters and to continue the mysteries. I highly recommend this series to anyone who likes a quick read with lots of mystery.

Twilight’s Spy (Twilight Realm Trilogy Book 1.5) by K.M. Wray

Twilight’s Spy is a amazing YA/ Fantasy story that is fast paced and hard to put down once you start. I love that this author is giving us this story which is in-between books one and two. This introduces us to new characters and gives back story which I love. I highly recommend reading the first book if you haven’t already as its just as good as this one. This is a fairly new author to me but I’m a fan already. This story is packed with adventure, action, magic, drama and so much more. Yarissa just finished her training and wants to be apart of the Elites. What happens when she’s sent out on a spy mission to the Night Realm? Being a spy really isn’t what she wants to be but the amazing friends she meets along the way . She really wants to keep her people safe. I highly recommend reading this fast-paced story to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Well Seth is a little different to his brothers that have featured in this series so far but that doesn’t mean he’s not a nice guy too! Victoria certainly has more guts than me with her bravado and plotting – I was cringing in anticipation of her being discovered! A sign of a great author creating great characters when you empathise with them like that! Looking forward to book 4!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Set in the year of 1484, this story begins with Lady Everett teaching her daughter, Isabel, her role as a woman. Isabel learns how to manage her home as well as how to receive guests. When her father arrives home, she learns she is to be married to Sir William Ward of Rocham. Her upbringing showed her family had an allegiance to the House of York, and yet her father was to have her marry the opposing House of Lancaster. Despite this betrothal, Isabel does as her mother instructs her and lays her faith in her father’s wisdom.

Upon her wedding day, Isabel become Lady Ward. She was quite nervous and, despite being a knight, William appears to be so as well. Two days pass, and they begin a long journey, upon which, Isabel notices that, Sir Robert does not seem to be fond of the union. She learns that her husband was not in full allegiance to the House of Lancaster as much as Sir Robert. When Sir Robert is not following them further than Baron Sanford’s estate, William confides in Isabel that their union was also a test for the angry knight. He failed by his behavior and was to be tried for treason.

The couple becomes more solidified in their relationship, but soon they both discover there is much to learn. When her Uncle Walter appears, Isabel was careful to remember her mother’s words, “Being a woman does have its benefits. You sit and observe, unnoticed by others.” Those words became a strength for Isabel throughout the remainder of the story.

When reading a series of books you always hope the next book is just as good or better than the last but you’re never really sure till you actually read it. Let me just say book #2 in this series definitely doesn’t disappoint.
The author did a great job again with the storyline and the characters. I really liked being able to “see” some of the characters from the 1st story.
The little “extras” at the ends of some of the chapters were nice little surprises I enjoyed.
The language, culture and history of the characters were nice to see as well.
If you need a reminder that fate & destiny are real then you definitely need to read this story.

The Best of the Year 2013. Best books, another definite must-read thriller. Michael Smith, Green (Living) Review

A global conspiracy to control the world by big corporations and evil government infiltrators masterly presented. You will love this conspiracy, presents enough of today’s food service doubts to keep you reading. I’m hooked, will certainly keep a close eye on “what if” this really was to happen, makes this book so much fun to read. Burntroot Broadcasting, Canada

What happens when too much power is held by too few people, where science is used against rather than for the good of mankind. A government scientist is puzzled by a number of incidents involving fellow scientists finds himself caught up in a deadly worldwide epidemic. Dark forces try to manipulate science to control the worlds’ population, as climate change will eventually make it impossible to feed everyone. An anti-GMO novel examines the impacts of new technology on the world with possible environmental and animal right consequences. My Green Directory

Corrupt systems. An evil plot. Can a scientist save humanity from certain death?

Calum still hasn’t recovered from his fiancé’s suicide. So, the principled government scientist throws himself into his work, despite his friends’ efforts to pair him off. When he raises concerns that food not adequately tested has already been approved, he is shocked at attempts to silence him.

As a deadly sickness sweeps the world, the natural leader feels responsible for keeping the survivors safe, especially attractive scientist Jessie. But he finds himself in mortal danger as he unearths a terrible conspiracy and mutants with paranormal powers attack survivors. 

Can Calum save humanity from annihilation by an ancient evil force?

Based on real science, A Quirk of Destiny imagines our future if we continue headlong on the current path of toxic food and environmental destruction, combined with political and corporate corruption.

If you like zombie apocalypse, global conspiracy and intelligently written fiction then you’ll love Catherine Greenall’s shocking book.

Falling in love with a pop starlet has its drawbacks

Lack of privacy, for one

Gossip, for another

But falling in love with Kiki Ramirez was the best thing I’ve ever done

And the stupidest

One story planted by her agent and now I look like a fool

Played by the starlet

Looking like a simp for the world to see

But none of its true and I can’t defend my woman how I want

The urge to fight for her, to defend her is too strong

Even against the Hollywood machine working hard to keep us apart

 

Falling in love with a civilian wasn’t part of the plan

I didn’t believe in love

Not for me and not for my life

But a small town mayor was the man who’d torn down my walls

Snuck past my defenses

And now with our future hanging in the balance its up to me to find a way to make it all work

A crazy agent

A ravenous paparazzi

And a pregnant belly I’m powerless to hide

I want Eric and the life I see for us

But how can I invite this madness into his quiet, small town life?

Katrina

My best friend is my head. It keeps all my secrets.

Everything I’ve seen and heard in my loveless past makes sense now, and it’s led me to TJ. The faceless man I conjured in my mind. The missing puzzle piece.

I wasn’t prepared for sparks to fly, filling my life with endless love, comfort, and safety. TJ, Toby, and I are inseparable, like a genuine family. The old me is long gone. Or so I thought.

Right after I confess my love to TJ, I tumble into the black hole of hell. My perfect façade begins to crumble, and I can’t mask it anymore. Once TJ sees between the cracks, he’ll leave Toby and me, just like everyone else has. I’m a survivor, but losing him will destroy me.

TJ

When I love, I love big, and it’s my worst downfall.

After I burst through a stranger’s door, Katrina and her newborn son, Toby, are pushed into my world. My hopeful soul whispers to me that we’re meant to be together. Can I trust it, though?

On the best night of my life, the beautiful woman I gave my heart to isn’t the same one who’s kicking me out of her house right now.

My family says it’s just a phase, and I’m trying to be patient. But her unpredictable mixed signals weigh heavily on my chest. Will my heart be shattered into a million pieces again?

Katrina owns the key to my heart, and she’s the only one who can unlock it.

***This book was inspired by real-life events, but takes place in a fictional world. It features a lovable ex-NFL player turned chemistry teacher, and a single mom who’s never felt loved. It’s an intense single parent, emotionally explosive story, filled with swoony times and sweet baby moments. HEA guaranteed. Sensitive topics are addressed that may be triggering for some readers.

When Elle is presented with every orphan’s dream, finding out she’s actually a princess, she isn’t sure if she should join the hulking sexy man, Locan, on a spaceship ride, or run screaming from the room because he’s obviously nuts. If it weren’t for the strange things she’d recently encountered, like suddenly gaining star shaped birthmarks and a bracelet that once belonged to her mother lighting up with an eerie green light, she would be out of there already. She has enough questions she wants answered to stay and find out, taking his hand and embarking on a journey across the darkness of space. He says she needs to save their people from her evil uncle. She wants to know where she comes from, who her mother was, and why she never fit in on earth. The path to their home planet isn’t without its bumps. Saving aliens, and earthlings while evading her uncle’s men and dodging the pushy goddesses who want to tell them all what to do. Elle has to learn who she really wants to be and to help Locan become the warrior he was meant to be. 

Can she be what the rebels need? Can Locan trust the beast that lives inside of him? Will the people of Prias once again have a princess on the throne to rule their utopian society?

Someone Exactly Like Me (Wounded Hearts Series Book #1) by Debbie Cromack – Review by Angela Hayes

Someone Exactly Like Me (Wounded Hearts, #1)Someone Exactly Like Me by Debbie Cromack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Someone Exactly Like Me is the first book in the Wounded Hearts series by Debbie Cromack. This is my first book by Ms. Cromack, and as I am always on the look out for new authors to add to my TBR list I happily snapped up a copy to explore.
What I found was a sweet, enjoyable, slow-burn, contemporary romance with a bit of a friends-to-lover element, some angst, push-pull, heartache, chemistry, and drama. I connected with the characters right from the get-go, which made it so easy to invest in them and their whole story.
I am happy that I stumbled on this book, and author- and I will certainly be keeping a look-out for more of her work in the future.
Bring on Book #2…
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Debbie Cromack!

Burned by Fire (Firehouse 13 Book 4) by Danielle Jacks – Review by Rachel Moss

Burned by Fire (Firehouse 13, #4)Burned by Fire by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great read! It was enthralling, emotional with a happy ending and steamy! Definitely an 18+ novel. It was quick paced and short, and very well written. I could hardly put it down. The characters were lovable and showed a lot of character and depth. This was a great read and I can’t wait to read more like this in the future!
