Wow what a read! I was completely captivated from beginning to end. The characters were complex but so worth reading about. True – I don’t even know what to say about this character – I loved him then I hated him, then I loved him again! He is definitely one of those character who is so enjoyable to read about! I loved the twists and turns in the story! I loved London as well, she was a great character and a definitely match for True! The chemistry between the two of them was off the charts and I was secretly rooting for them!! This really was an amazing read, a great storyline with amazing characters! I would 100% recommend it to other readers!

Trezzie is a mermaid that visits her friends on land. They share a love for science and how it can seem like magic. These books are fun, colorful, and educational. Great job showcasing ice in this book. Loved it!

This author continues to create the cutest mermaid stories with life lessons built in. I read it with my 8 year old daughter and she enjoyed it as much as the last story. Similar to the last book we are back under the sea with our mermaid friends and we are exploring science, friendship, and swim safety. Vivid imagery and fun facts attached make this a must read.

Gah! I can’t get over the cuteness of this book. It follows two students with a fantastic librarian on a journey of wonder! They HAVE to save the school, and even world, from the aliens threatening to invade!
The best I could describe this book is whimsical! It is such a perfectly woven book for children. It made me remember why I use to love running to the school’s library every Friday afternoon! Even though I didn’t read it as a child, it felt nostalgic nonetheless. I’m really excited for the day I can share this book with my own children!

After seeing this cover and reading the synopsis I was drawn to this story right away. I have personally never read anything by this author before but thus one really leaves me wanting more. Full of suspense scriptural lessons, faith, sabotage and more I just simply couldn’t put it down. So if your looking for a good clean but suspenseful book to read next make sure you pick this one up today.

Anne’s very dedicated to her work to keep drugs off the streets. She’s organizing this huge event that will help to teach kids alternatives to a life of drugs and addiction. It’s after a doctor’s appointment and finding out that she needs to start taking B12 shots that she doesn’t feel well.
Grant and Josh are DEA agents assigned to this case to try to bring down this drug lord. Grant’s super interested because Anne is one of his closest friends. Grant’s former partner, Greg, is engaged to Anne, adding yet another layer of importance.
Becker is the drug lord of the past but has this person resurfaced again? Did they ever really go away? It’s up to Grant and Josh to get all of this figured out and before anyone else becomes addicted to this drug kronilan.
Premeditated was gripping from the start! I only put it down once and that was difficult! The characters and the story is very relatable, yet very scary. This is a very clean, inspirational read that does quote some scripture and has religious themes throughout. I appreciate this author writing such a gripping novel in a way that doesn’t make me cringe with horrible language!

If you have several hours to fill up in your life, grab this book! The author creates a suspenseful, engaging read that has you turning the pages until the very end.
The second book in the series, we see repeating characters from the first book, but it can be read as a stand-alone. The characters and story are largely believable and deals with difficult themes.
You never know who next target is when everyone is a target and you’ll find yourself guessing who is responsible until the very end! This is easy to read in one sitting with the action-packed, creative storyline and wonderful characters!

I thoroughly enjoyed this fast paced crime thriller, which had me hooked from start to finish. Anti-drug activists are being targeted by someone using the very substance they fight against. DEA Agents Grant Rourke and Josh McKenzie are assigned the case, and need to discover who’s behind this string of drug-related crimes, and make sure that the fatal doses of ‘kronilan’ are taken off the streets. However, the person behind the ‘kronilan’ distribution starts targeting the Agents family and friends, including Anne, the fiancé of Grant’s ex-partner and former DEA Agent, Greg Nelson. Grant and Josh need to find the culprit before it’s too late. This was a real page turner and the exciting storyline, along with the likeable and relatable characters kept me happily turning the pages. The plot twists kept me gripped and guessing until the end. I am keen to read the previous book in the same series now.

PREMEDITATED is the second book in the Agents of Justice series. It is a clean Christian romance story that has religious themes. The plot is interesting if not at times a little predictable but that’s not a bad thing. As this is the second book by Susanna, I am sure each book will get better. There are twists and turns that add to the suspense to the story.
With drugs and threats against those they love will they be able to stop before things get deadly?

This was a really interesting crime story. The author does a great job making the story scarily realistic and has you thinking about what if it were to really happen. The characters were well written too. Love the relationship between our 2 agents Grant and Josh. This story is fast paced and starts very quickly when someone dies. Is it just a diabetic coma is has something more sinister happened. As our agents start to unravel this case they uncover the fact that the victims are all against drug abuse and are trying to clamp down on it. Which of course if drugs is your line of work you don’t want that. With anti-drug activists being targeted Grant and Josh know they are on a race against time to stop anyone else getting hurt and when it turns personal with an ex agents fiancee being targeted the stakes get even higher. This is a gripping story that will shock you and having questioning and wondering right up to the end.

Premeditated: A Trust Betrayed, Lives Sabotaged, A Love Undaunted is the second book in the Agents of Justice series by Susanna Haymond. This is a Christian crime and investigation story, with mystery, action, suspense, faith, and drama. I didn’t realise when I got this book that it is the second book in the series, but I don’t think that mattered to the story at all. It can be read as a standalone. With a deadly drug invading the community and the drug crimes on the rise- DEA Agents Grant and Josh have been tasked with finding the source and getting it off the streets for good. But what happens when their investigation draws the attention of the drug distributors- putting them and their loved ones at risk? An interesting story.

This book was literally a thrill ride from start to finish. The book a lot to the table I found, and I simply loved every minute of my reading. I was hooked really right from the introduction; this book was amazing, and it had the right amount of suspense to keep you hooked as you read. Grant and Josh were an awesome team to say the least. I loved how their minds worked together, even when they did not see truly eye to eye with one another. I found my guessing abilities were not working as I read, the book really spoke for itself. The danger and excitement it brought to me, was freaking amazing. I loved this book so much, and I will be for sure reading more by this wonderful author. Amazing rollercoaster of thrill. I loved this author and I certainly loved and enjoyed this book for all it is worth. This is for sure a must-read ,book, and a very high recommendation from me. A Very WORTHY read.

I enjoyed this suspenseful story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed and look forward to reading more in the future. This is a well written story about someone who is targeting anyone who is against drugs including the activists. This is a story where it will keep you guessing and won’t see what is coming next. I found this story to be fast paced and engaging. It is a story that is full of not only suspense but action that will leave you sitting on the edge of your seat. I enjoyed the characters and how they pulled me into the story. They are well rounded and connectable. Their growth throughout the story made it easy to read. I also enjoyed how they kept me coming back for more. This is a great suspense story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book.

I absolutely love Elena and Marco! From Frenemies to Lovers! Even though you can read this book as a standalone, I recommend reading the other books in order before this one. There is vital information about Elena’s starting predicament that may be confusing if you do not know the background information from the other 3 books. After finding that Elena is alive, Marco will not stop until she is his and in his arms. As teenagers, Marco and Elena were always back and forth teasing and punishing for no reason. They both had crushes on each other but kept it a secret, as Elena was promised to marry Enzo. In this book, it tied up several of the sub-plots that go on throughout each book. Marco is the sexy tattooed badass, while Elena has become an independent badass of her own. Her being away from everyone and in hiding for the past 4 years causes several issues with the two main characters, trust being the main problem. As Elena, is not sure who to trust, and Marco is pissed that she left without asking for help. The main Mafia situation in Savage Secrets is focused on the Russians, the Boss Yuri in particular. Very action packed but with lots of romance and love. Definitely cannot wait to read the 5th book in the series.

Ruthless Heir, Book 5 in the Mafia Elite Series throws a huge loop than the other pervious books. At first, I was not sure how I would like it considering it is bringing in two new characters that have not been introduced yet. The love story focus is on Luc and Summer. Luc being Lil’s long lost half brother, who has no idea he has a sister, let alone Mafia. Both Luc and Summer come from hard difficult childhoods, which is one of the things they bond over. The book focuses on Luc’s training to become the new Mafia Boss for the Brambilla Family and the new girl who he has dragged along with him, Summer. She is also on the run from another less powerful Mafia Family, the Amato’s. She keeps her cards close to her in hope that she Five Chicago Families do not turn her over. At first, Summer is there against her will, but slowly everyone, including Luc falls in love with her. As Summer and Luc work together every morning, their love connection grows so beautifully. Summer and Luc both fit excellently into the Five Mafia Families and are a great addition. Amy McKinley does a spectacular job at mixing adventure, mystery, romance and spice. I know I will not be disappointed in book 6!

Everything to Me: A Best Friend’s Sister Sports Romance (Playing for Keeps #2) By Lauren Fraser
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Everything to Me is the second book in the Playing for Keeps Series. Everything to Me is a fantastic read.
Kendall is in town for a week and will be staying with her crush. She was hoping the crush would be over with, but then he opens the door. That changes everything. The quote I chose for Kendall is: “Oh my god, did you seriously just say that?” Kendall scoffed. “Take advantage of me, because the poor little lady couldn’t possibly know her own mind. Believe me, Pete. I know my own mind and if I f*** a guy, it’s because I want to f*** him. Not because I’m so naïve he’s tricked me into it.”
Peter has always thought Kendall was pretty. He didn’t realize how good looking she would get as she grew up. He was thinking of the teenager Kendall. The quote I chose for Peter is: “Torrey Pines, it’s not a hard hike at all, but I think you’ll like it. The path walks along the bluffs and overlooks the water. With the breeze off the ocean, and the birds, it’s always really nice, peaceful, even when it’s busy, which it shouldn’t be too bad today.”

I really enjoyed this romantic read and didn’t realize it was book 2 so it can be read as a stand alone! I love Kendall’s confidence and energy. The conversations flow so easy between her and Pete. This is one of those stories that flows really well and you don’t want it to end. I’ll definitely be reading more by this author because I really enjoyed their writing style. I’m a sucker for a sweet romance and this was a great one to read!

Devil’s Breath was everything I wanted and more. It was sexy and hot and mysterious. The FMC, Sera, was not only a bad ass but she was so smart. We love a woman with beauty AND brains. Cassius is just as sexy and he has that tough guy exterior that only Sera can get past. The tension of Sera choosing between her father and Cassius made the drama of this book stand out. I can’t say enough good things about this book! Sera and Cassius are definitely goals.

Wow… just wow. This is my first book by this author and I gotta say I am absolutely blown away. Deadly Sommer is a fantastic first book. I was caught hook line and sinker from the get go. The writing was so beautifully done, there is no words to describe it. Nora is her own right is a bonafide Bada**. She doesn’t take crap from anybody! I was on the edge of my seat the entire book and found myself finishing it in one sitting I was so captivated. Just when I thought I had figured everything out that plot twist KO’d me out of no where and I was not expecting it! I can’t wait to see what Nora’s next adventures are, and I can’t wait to add this book to my ever growing book collection!

Nora has just started a new job with the Royal Cayman Police thinking the job will be relaxed and different pace to life, but when Nora and her partner are thrown into a kidnapping thing start to get interesting.
While Nora starts investigating, she is drawn into the kidnapper’s sick plan and she become a porn in the crime, having to race against time to try and solve four challenges set by the bad guy, the only thing is if she fails any then the kidnap victim will have things done to her, so Nora must try and solve the clues and the challenges to find this sick man.
In the end, can she find out who has drawn her into this game, and can she survive?
This is the first book I have read by this author, and I really enjoy the well written story. I had a hard time relating to the character of Nora but as the story progressed, I found my feelings changing and becoming more involved with the character. If you love a good murder mystery than this is a story for you, with twists and turns which will have you glued to the book and have you reading into the early morning trying to finish a chapter.
The story if impactful and as the author drip feeds the clues to you it is a great page turner, I don’t really like stories which you know the murderer in the first five chapters and then you are constantly cursing the lead character, but this book did not give me those vibes at all.
This is a great beach book, where you can just get absorbed into the world and forget your reality for a bit. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series and see which next adventure Nora gets to go on.

Absolutely Amazing! The author, Amy McKinley, definitely knows how to balance the right amount of action, suspense, and romance. “No Way Out” is focused on the story of Max (Matt) and Lilana. The book is told through both of their POV’s and I absolutely love that we get to know both of their viewpoints. Both main characters have a troubled past, and truthfully a troubled present. The book was fast-paced, but was not so fast that you didn’t understand what was happening and why. I am in awe that Liliana is such a badass, and so are the other “Mafia Princesses”. The interaction with Max and Liliana was just enough of darkness that kept you on your toes, but not so much where it was off-putting. Every page had me wanting more, and wondering what would happen next. One of the best books I have read by this author. I am looking forward to reading the second book in this series!

Collateral Damage is book 6 in the Mafia Elite Series. While each book can be a standalone, I highly recommend reading the other books in order before reading this one. Collateral Damage focuses on the love story of Trey La Rosa and a young woman named Hailey Carmichael. Trey has absolutely no time to find a woman as he is in his residence for becoming a surgeon and is also the Mafia’s doctor. Trey recently lost his last girlfriend, and he is not looking to ever lose another person he loves. The two main characters meet at a function and Trey is slowly pulled into helping Hailey. As they continue to work together, his feelings grow enormous for her, and he is not willing to lose her for any reason. Amy McKinley never disappoints, and that is also clear in this book. This series is one of the best series I have read in a long time. There is an excellent mixture of spice, romance, and action. Her details on each man will make your mouth water. In the other books, Trey is on the outskirts, and I am glad that in this book we get a up close and personal look into his life.

This is the third book in the Mafia Elite Series. Even though you can read these as stand alone, I definitely recommend reading them in order, as there are sub plots throughout each book that connects them all. I absolutely loved the way Amy McKinley portrays Emiliana Vitale. She is one of my favorite characters throughout the series. Her fierceness and bravery are far superior to the other Mafia Princesses, which is what I love about her. This book focuses on Emiliana and Stephano love story. Stephano also is more vicious than the other Bosses, given who his father is, who is the scariest of them all. There is a love between Stephano and Emiliana that seems to go deeper than the other couples. Emiliana was kidnapped and held in a human trafficking ring, and Stephano is the one who saved her and carried her out. I enjoyed the building relationship between the two of them. The way Stephano is there for Emiliana but also lets her heal in her own way is one of the reasons I love this book so much. This book has more than just romance, it touches on standing up for what you want regardless of your parents, as well as key emotions both people can have after a significant trauma. I cannot wait to read book 4 as I know Amy McKinley will most definitely give an amazing story!

“Blood Oath” had me in a whirlwind of emotions. The love story between Enzo and Sofia brought me to tears at every turn. Their love was pure and so deep. This book was even better than the first. Amy McKinley did a MAGNIFICINT job at showing and describing both Enzo and Sofia’s inner thoughts and feelings. There was never a moment you have to think what they were wanting or needing. This book had a bunch of suspense, was intriguing and lots of action. I love the history that the author gives on both of the main characters, and I thoroughly enjoyed the flashbacks each of them had. The small sub plots throughout book one carried out through this book. Even though there are so many characters, the author is wonderful at making each of their stories different, so it’s not that easy to get them mixed up or confused. I personally love the large diversity of characters and sub-plots. Even though this book could be a stand-alone, I do advise to read the first series book before starting this one. One of my favorite components of the book, is how fierce the women are. They are complete Badass women and do not need anyone, but they utterly want to be next to the one they love. Definitely a fast paced read, I could not put it down. I cannot wait to read book 3 and find out what is in store for the other characters, as well to know the ending of some of the sub-plots throughout the book.

This was a quick fun read. I enjoyed that it includes recipes. I found myself trying a few of them. The baking and fantasy aspects worked perfectly together. It made it enjoyable. The author knows how to get the attention of teens and adults alike with this one.

Okay, Captivated is absolutely a guilty pleasure! If you ever asked me in public if I read this book I would say “no”! It is so much steamy goodness in one little package!! I love a good Fated Mates tale but this one takes the cake (well both cales)!! If polyamorous relationships is not your thing, this is not the book for you. But if it is even a teensy bit, you HAVE to give this a try! I am absolutely following this author from now on!

This book is the second in a series, which I thought I had read the first book but I must have been dreaming. lol Anyway, I was able to figure out the characters but I think I may have missed something by not reading the fist book. I’m sure I’ll be correcting that mistake very soon.
I love Cat and her grandma GG, who challenges Cat with recipes and not making it too easy for Cat and Robyn to figure out answers. How fun to have a scavenger hunt around the city finding the answers that GG won’t provide easily. I think this was not only fun but also helped Cat really find out about her ancestors and especially the original baker of the family.
The characters are really easy to connect with, the book is a really fun read, and the recipes listed in the book would be a fun experience for young bakers to try!

This was a really enjoyable read. I liked the storyline and the book was really easy to read. The author had a really nice writing style which meant the story was easy to follow and it had a really nice pace and flow to it. I really liked the characters, especially Bree, she was lovely to read about. She is the kind of character who you just instantly feel a connection with and I really did feel with her. There were also some great secondary characters that really added that extra layer to the story. I really liked Nate and I was definitely rooting for the two of them the whole way through the story! A really good read that I would definitely recommend to other readers!

Oh my goodness how I wish I could let every little girl that passes my library read this book but I’m not sure my kindle will appreciate all the attention 😉
Our little friends Maia and Gig are off having a picnic when they befriend Trezzie , a mermaid 🧜♀️ now only one of our little friends can see her so the other one has her doubts but the 3 of them have fun together and create a beautiful necklace for Trezzie from ice cubes 🧊 ❤️
Not only was this a fun and cute read but there was also a bit of a science lesson to be learnt about the wonders of ice ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
