If you’re looking for a fun short vacation read this book is perfect for you. It has the complete story line of a 300 + page book wrapped up in 150 pages.
Two broken people find each other at the perfect time. Bella needs someone to love and protect her and Levi needs someone to love and protect but also someone to push him. They are perfect for each other.
Great storyline, superb character development. I’m excited to read the next one.

Totally Brilliant!! I loved this book from beginning to end full of action, love, werewolves, fated mates and moments that left me speechless. The story of what fate has in store when you are only the second son of an Alpha….Nolen was just that. Nolen was small and not as strong as his older brother Archer. When fate had other plans…Nolen is trained to become the new Alpha of the Rhyolite Pack and is determined to make his family and late brother proud. There are definite obstacles that try and hinder Nolen from becoming a successful Alpha….I was rooting for Nolen all the way from the training to his friendship with Sawyer and finding his mate.
This book was totally fantastic and highly recommended…I look forward to more books from this author!!
This a fantastic clean cowboy/ romantic suspense novel, and the first in the series. Once I started this fantastic story I was thrilled that it was the first story in a series. The character development was great, the plot was wonderful, and personally I can’t wait to see what this author comes up with next. I have read a couple other books by this author amd personally she’s becoming a quick favorite. So make sure you run out and pick up this one today.

3.5stars Secrets, lies and drama This book is interesting and deals with some tough issues with sensitivity. Holly and Nathan felt genuine and the romance aspect was well done. There were moments within the story where I felt disconnected and the story lulled but there was an emotional undertone that kept me reading. YA romance with a little bit more.

This story is so packed full of action, adventure, suspense, and intrigue. Titania is one of my favorite fantasy characters. She is badass and strong by putting her kingdom and people before everything else. She really isn’t afraid to break laws to protect people. This is book 2 of the series and continues Titania’s adventures of dealing with consequences of trying to protect the kingdom. Now one person is facing those consequences. Can she save him and her kingdom? She has so much pressure all around her and secrets to hide. The author does a great job in writing her and developing the plot around her struggles. It’s been a delight to listen this story. I’ve enjoyed going through and hearing Titania battle through and get what she needs. I have read this story but to listen to it on audio gives it a whole new level of comprehension because you can picture it, listen and basically create your own picture in your mind. It’s another level of imagination. The narrator did a great job of changing the voices around and giving excitement to the story. She kept the story going. I really enjoyed the story. Everything came together and made it all work.

This was an enjoyable and engaging western style, clean romance, which kept me happily turning the pages. Bella Orstwell, is an English aristocrat who helped get her abusive Russian mafia boyfriend arrested, but is now in hiding whilst awaiting the trial. Bella has to pretend to be both the housekeeper to the Delaney Brothers and a nanny to their younger sister. Although all three of the brothers are attractive, it’s cowboy, Levi that catches her eye, however, it’s also ex-Navy SEAL Levi who is in charge of protecting her. Levi is busy enough helping his brothers run the ranch and raising his little sister, without having to take on a ‘babysitting gig’. He definitely wasn’t expecting Bella who is both annoying and lovely at the same time, and all he can think about is kissing her, when he’s not ordering her around, for her safety. Meanwhile, Bella is determined not to follow all of Levi’s many orders, but although she has sworn off men, there is something about wounded hero Levi which makes her want to heal him. Soon the couple have more dangerous things to deal with as any HEA can only happen if Levi can keep Bella alive when her past comes looking for her. The main characters are all likeable and relatable, and the chemistry between Levi and Bella came across in the narrative and in their banter. I was hooked from start to finish and I felt immersed in the storyline, which was a good mix of, drama, suspense and romance.

This book was good for my 8 and 9 year old daughters. They love mermaids, and this book was no exception. This was a quick read for both girls, who are still working toward being strong, independent readers.
Trezzie the Mermaid has found a rock that she thinks is interesting, and gives it to her friend Maia. Maia is playing with another friend, Fig, who can’t see Trezzie and feels left out when Maia and Trezzie are playing together. Trezzie wants Maia and Fig to try to figure out what the design is in the stone she hands them, but due to Fig making a water magnifying glass, they are able to see that it’s not a design, but rather a small creature.

If I could give a series more than 5 stars it would be this one. I’m so glad I started with the set because once I got started I couldn’t put it down!
Every story follows one of the Dark Brothers finding their true love. There is some dark themes , suprising match ups (think … NUN!), intense chemistry, opposites attract and then a finale that will answer the questions I had to know about finally defeating their father or “donor”.
Dark Romance , spice, intrigue , Action… this one has it all and you don’t want to miss it!!!

I love being able to follow up a good book with the audio version so I was excited to get to read this one. I thought the narrator did a great job of bringing the story and the characters to life. They made them feel so much more real and I could visualise everything with ease. The story still felt just as exciting as when I was reading it Ns even though I knew what was coming I still felt like I was surprised anew. I really enjoyed this adaption and hope to listen to more of this authors books.

Levi is an ex-SEAL that is settling into life on the family ranch. After the tragic loss of both their father and stepmother, Levi and his two brothers are also raising their much younger sister. Things become interesting when Levi is asked to keep a mysterious woman safe so she can testify against her criminal ex-boyfriend. Posing as “Beccy”, a nanny for their sister, Bella is not anyone’s nanny, let alone housekeeper. One small act upsets the whole operation and puts the little sister at risk. How can Bella make things right with the brothers, especially Levi? This is going to be an excellent series. The first book sets the stage for some interesting stories to follow. Highly recommended!

LOVED this one! It is a wonderful beginning to a new series. It has action, suspense, drama and some romance. This is very well written from the storyline to the building of the cast. I really *felt* for these characters and I actually was very moved by a scene that included a dog. I enjoyed meeting Levi’s family and learning more about him and what makes him tick. The female lead was a complete mystery and I am going to leave her that way so you can discover her secrets all on your own. She did surprise me more than once.
This is a first time author for me. I adored her character’s and can not wait for the next in the series. While this is a clean romance the story is fulfilling enough that I did not miss the open door scenes.

When Levi is asked by a friend to protect someone until their court date, he says yes despite being busy running the ranch with his brothers and taking care of his sister. However, when Bella arrives, she is not the docile, do as you’re told, charge…she is strong, independent, and willing to hold her ground. While Levi’s brothers, Amos and Elijah, have no problems with her….Levi and Bella butt heads and have some pretty heated disagreements. But this soon gives way to friendship and an undeniable attraction (which Levi is determined to keep at bay for as long as possible). However, when danger arrives at their doorstep, will Bella remain just a job?!? You will have to read it to find out! I enjoyed these characters. I enjoyed watching Levi open up his heart as the story progressed…and Bella started to feel that protection that she has been needing for so long. There was laughter and suspense…and the hope that these two would finally give in to what they have been fighting. Overall, a good book that I enjoyed reading.

This is a contemporary romance story with a bit of excitement thrown in for good measure. This story had a bit of everything you could want from this genre – great characters with a strong connection, a sweet and believable romance as well as bit of action for entertainment. I thought the two main characters worked really well together. There was push back from both of them in the start but the bond between them grew into such a strong connection. I thought the author did a great job with the supporting characters too. Everyone added to the overall story nicely. The book was well developed and a truly sweet romance. I am looking forward to more from this author.

I grabbed this book because of the cover so I dove in blind. I wasnt sure what to expect with this book but it sure wasnt the heart clenching read this was.
High school age reads are not my go to reads as they are usually young but acting older than would seem normal, dealing with situations that are far fetched etc but that is NOT case with this book. My heart broke in a million pieces with each blow we see in this book but our main characters are fighters and I was rooting for a good outcome.
Glad I took a chance on this book, I love this author so knew it would be good.
This is a really enjoyable romance. I loved the chemistry between the characters both Bridger and Tia know how to push the others buttons and that only sparks their chemistry more. Bridger is well known as a playboy. He plays hard both on and off the ice but this behaviour is now biting him in the butt as bad press and being distracted during games is having a negative impact on his career. He’s decided to lay off women and concentrate on his career that is until Tia walks into his life.
Tia has had a bad experience with rich playboys and has learnt her lesson the hard way. Never again will she be caught up with a rich playboy. However things get a bit sidetracked when she meet Bridger.
The attraction between them is instant and steamy. With both of them not wanting to commit they settle on 1 weekend of fun. But what happens when that 1 weekend isn’t enough. Could Tia be the girl to finally tame the notorious playboy? Will Tia even contemplate more with Bridger? And what happens if Tia’s past is revealed? Will Bridger pursue her as hard as he plays in life? Or will Tia stand her ground and and deny Bridger the one thing he wants, Her?

Bridger has the reputation of the playboy hockey star, and he is happy with that, the self-proclaimed bachelor but when his persona is affecting his career, he become more adamant to try and shed the fast life image and concentrate on growing up and being much more. So, when he is asked to set up a team charity calendar, how hard can it be?
Tia has had enough of rich playboys, after the last one tried to destroy her, she is wanting a quiet life, until she is plunged into the world of hockey. Her boss is shooting the calendar for the Astoria Bay Hockey Team and when she runs into Bridger her world goes slightly off centre, the chemistry between them is great but he irritates the crap out of her and he is in the “Playboy” category which she is wanting to stay away from, but can she?
I love a good hockey story, and this does not disappoint, the interaction between the main character is great to read. I love a good frenemies story and the chemistry between these two is electric, with the insecurities that comes from both main characters just adds another dimension in to a great story. I loved that this book can be read as stand alone within the series and I can guarantee that I will be reading more in this series and by this author.

This book was so GREAT I literally could not put it down and finished it within 24hours, which is something I can do if I am truly hooked! I have read other books by this author and was so excited when I saw this book as it sounded like something totally up my ally to read. Levi, the main character, has very bad PTSD as he is an ex-Navy Seal who has come back to his family’s home due to his parents’ demise. One of his close friends call him and states that they have a rose that needs planting, which means he needs to help watch someone who is in protective custody. This is how we meet Bella. Bella has an ex who with her testimony will be able to put him away for a long time so her being safe is the only objective. This was not your average love story, which made it great as it was one of a kind and a very great read! I cannot wait to read more books in this series as well as by this author!

Levi has been forced to return home to help run the family ranch and to look after his little sister with his brothers when his dad and stepmother died. They are all trying to find the balance in their lives but when an old military friend of Levi’s asks for a favour, he is more than happy to help protect the person in his charge.
Bella is scared, she put herself in a position of no return with a man who is violate and evil, when she receives a way out, she takes it with both hands but when she lands on the doorstep of Levi and his family, can she keep the pretence up with the family or will she break as they openly welcome her into the family. Plus, can she also hide the chemistry between her and Levi?
This is the first time I have read a book but this author and will not be the last. I enjoyed the way the story flowed, and the characters were well developed, the contrast between Levi and Bella was a lovely dimension with the higher society in which Bella lived with the coldness of her family to the honest and warmth that flowed through Levi’s family was great to read.
With the secondary characters this brought the world to life, and I am desperate to see if the author continues the series with the other brothers whose stories are there for the taking and to also see more into the future of Bella and Levi. I cannot wait.

The last thing Levi needs right now is some snooty beautiful English woman coming into his life and fighting his every word. But that’s exactly what he gets when asked by an old friend to house Bella and keep her safe.
So under the guise of her being a nanny hired to take care of Allie, Bella, now going by Beccy learns the ins and outs of farm life. Between Dodging two gorgeous brothers whom she started to consider family and one brother who can’t seem to say anything nice to her, but for some reason she can’t get him off her mind, she has her hands full. Bella definitely didn’t know what to expect, especially when she finds herself falling in love with Levi, can Bella and Levi work through their own past traumas and find love and safety within each other’s arms. Or will the past catch up to them…
Terrific book, the dynamic between the brothers makes for a wonderful read, throwing a spicy little through bread in added the perfect amount of flavor to make for a captivating read. I love that this book dives into so tough subjects as we discover some of Levi’s past as a ex navy SEAL while still keeping the story light and enjoyable. Its definitely something I’d like to see more off. I would LOVE to read books about the other brothers, they are very charming and though we only skim the surface of them as characters in this book, they are hard not to fall in love with.
There’s a lot of growth in Bella during this book as well, I believe that she came from a place of privilege and was thrust into a unknown situation and family dynamic which forced change where there otherwise wouldn’t have been any.

Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass is the third book in the Mermaid Science series by Lois Wickstrom. It is a bright, interesting, entertaining, and educational children’s story that takes them on a cute adventure while also teaching and inspiring them to learn about science. We follow the cute characters, Maia, Fig, and Trezzie (whom we know from the previous books) on a new science adventure, where they make a magnifying glass out of a drop of water. We readers are shown the steps to the ‘science experiments’, which are simple to understand and duplicate easily at home. The characters are cute, quirky, and endearing…. And along with the bright and colourful illustrations, they bring the whole story to life. The use of fantasy teamed with science, engages both imagination and inspires learning. Another cute addition to the series! Happy reading!

Blood & Vengeance is the second book in ‘The Casket Girls’ series by A.D. Brazeau. I loved the first book, and this one is even better again as Ms. Brazeau intensifies things even more. Again, this fantastic story is wrapped in a gorgeous cover that certainly catches the eye. This paranormal delight is set in New Orleans, 1728- which gives the whole story a wonderfully atmospheric feel, infusing the story with rich textures and its own unique identity. This story continues on from the events in Book #1. After what she went through there, Desiree is on a quest to eradicate the remaining nest of vampires. But things aren’t quite that easy as a powerful witch enters the scene with an agenda of her own. What happens makes for a really engrossing read. If you love paranormal romance with vampires, mysteriousness, demons, curses, danger, witches, history, mythology, tension, magic, and dramatic developments- then you will certainly want to get your hands on this book/series and dive in asap. Couldn’t and wouldn’t put it down till I’d read every word…. Now I need the next instalment, “Blood & Magic’, STAT! Happy Reading!
