Claiming My Mate (Wolf Hollow Pack Book 1) by Nicole Howl – Review by La Toya Lewis

Claiming My Mate (Wolf Hollow Pack, #1)Claiming My Mate by Nicole Howl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Claiming My Mate by Nicole Howl is a fast-paced and incredibly enjoyable paranormal romance story. Lily and Jason are fated mates. However, he is the prince and alpha to be and she is the kidnapped and enslaved servant to the royal family. The book is adventurous with well-written characters. I really enjoyed Lily, Jason, and Dean’s interactions. Seeing all that Lily had to go through and her inner dialogue broke my heart. The plot is great and while I enjoyed the pace, I do wish it’d been slowed down a bit for more plot development. Some things just didn’t make sense to happen that quickly, like Lily’s strength development. This book is a fast, enjoyable read. I was so engrossed that I was surprised when the end came. I eagerly await the sequel.

Everwood Plantation by Stacy-Deanne – Review by Shelly Kittell

Everwood County Plantation: BWWM Enemies-to-Lovers Billionaire RomanceEverwood County Plantation: BWWM Enemies-to-Lovers Billionaire Romance by Stacy-Deanne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a quick and entertaining romance. It can be done in a weekend. Zenni is in Everwood County, Georgia to check on her grandparent’s house. A hurricane had come through the area and wiped out the Easterly neighborhood. She stops to check out the Everwood County Plantation, a piece of her family history. Her grandmother told her that her ancestors were kept there (slavery). Colton is a hot billionaire from the area. Local bastard raised by his father, he’s keeping a dark secret that he doesn’t tell anyone. He falls for Zenni and all bets are off. These two have a few challenges to work through. They also have the complication of falling madly in love. Can they work through the plantation issue? He wants to tear it down; she wants to save it. This was a witty book. The flirting will crack you up. It did remind me a little of Pretty Woman. Coltan is like a teenager in an adult man’s body. He’s had a rough past and just needs to let those walls down. We can relate to that. He has a human side, even being a billionaire. Sandy is my absolute favorite. She did her best to get these two together. Momma Lovebird. Zenni, she was just selfish. I had a hard time relating to her. It could be because I’m as stubborn as her. The characters were well-written and they did make for a fun story. The plot felt a little out of place in spots because it really felt like the plantation wasn’t really involved too much in the story. It was more an accessory than the main focus. There is also a little spice to add some kick. Overall, I recommend the story for all romance lovers. It’s funny, quick and enjoyable.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Angels, demons and temptations
Filled with a unique storyline this book is a page turner. Beelzebub is a flirty, mischievous and sexy demon who is confident with what he wants and what he does. Until he meets Clara, a baker and empath. I enjoyed their banter and connection. Once the battle between angels and demons starts the story takes a life of its own. A sinfully delicious read.

Wow! Great story, this one had my emotions all over the place. At multiple different times I was either mad at Zenni or Colton. Colton is a real tool in the beginning and I can’t see how Zenni can stand talking to him for more than 5 minutes. Colton wants to tear down the plantation and Zenni wants to keep it up. I was back and forth between both sides fighting along with them. Their romance was steamy and sweet and it was a nice short read that really reminded me of our terrible past. I love that Zenni was so protective of her family’s history and wish more people were like that now days. I love this author and her take on BWWM romance and look forward to reading more!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Paranormal action romance adventure
This book had it all. Loved the characters, the setting and the storyline. I was vested immediately in the characters, especially Sam. The writing is really good and this book is a very strong start to the series. Told in dual POV, Sam and Layla each hold their own. Their passion and connection is off the charts. There is a cliffhanger which makes me eager for book 2.

I enjoyed this romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. This is a well written story that has characters that have a lot of heart and certainly bring romance to a new level. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters from the first word. They are connectable and really made the story for me. I enjoyed how the author was able to bring the story to life by her writing skills. Her attention to details gave the story a realistic feel. I enjoyed the growth of the plot throughout that made the story easy to read. Zenni and Colton have such great chemistry throughout as well as great growth. They are strong, creative characters that are supportive of all the characters. Find out what happens when a fight over a plantation turns into something neither one expected. I really enjoyed this story and I highly recommend it.

Ruthless Heir (Mafia Elite Book 5) by Amy McKinley

Ruthless Heir is the fifth book in the Mafia Elite Series and my absolute favorite yet. I’ve been waiting for this book and man oh man it didn’t disappoint. I highly recommend reading this series in order if you haven’t already started each book helps in the understanding of what has been going on and you get to know the characters better plus it’s a really good series. From the moment I started reading I knew there was going to be no stopping until I finished. This is Summer and Luc’s story. He’s about to take over as the new Heir and shes fixing to be on the run. I really don’t want to give to much away. These characters have a chemistry between them and there is definitely attraction. Get ready to be taken on quite the ride and be prepared to be hanging onto the edge of your seat there’s definitely some twists and turns. I highly recommend reading not only this book but the whole series. I can’t wait for more from this Author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was a bit dark, but the story overall was amazing. There was drama, angst, suspense, lust, love, and redemption. Emotionally you will be on a roller coaster because its a rocky road on their second time around. Olivia and Deacon had a lot of things to overcome, but on this 2nd chance they held on to each other harder than they ever have. The twists and turns throw in only draw you in more, and its a book you definitely read more than once.

I loved this book!! While it was a light novella that was meant to be romantic and fun it also held a deeper meaning that many will relate to.
Shamrock and Clover came together at the right time in their lives. The bona fide playboy and the girl who cannot catch a break. This story is sweet, funny, and heartfelt. I will definitely pick up a book by this author again.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luc and Summer are pure electricity! This was such a great Mafia romance and it was so great finally getting to meet Luc and seeing how he reacts to being the heir to the Brambilla arm of the Five Families. If you haven’t read the previous books in this series you definitely need to because not only are they all amazing but they give great background on the other men and their wives. Summer is so tough but also vulnerable and something about her speaks to Luc from the moment he lays eyes on her. Things quickly spin out of control after a hot night together when Summer won’t reveal who and what she’s running from. Everything starts to fall into place the more time they spend together but there are some really terrifying twists and turns the closer they get. The ending is so beautiful, this is one action packed Mafia romance that you won’t want to miss!

I really enjoyed this children’s book. I loved the diversity of the characters and I loved the idea of the unbirthday gift. As a parent, we always celebrate my son’s half-birthday! I am a teacher and could really see how useful this book could be in the classroom to show students how you can start with a simple, common object and use it to create a whole story around. This story would be great to use with children 3-6 as a fun read-aloud or for slightly older children if teaching a creative writing lesson.

Until There Was You by G Colegrove
5 out of 5 Stars

While this was my first read from G Colegrove, it certainly will not be my last. This book captivates the audience from the first chapter and leaves you wanting more. I would give this book 100 stars if I could! Phenomenal story—one of the best that I have read lately. I could not put it down!

The characters emitted a noticeable chemistry from their very first encounter, which continued to sizzle with sexual energy and romance throughout.
Regan is from the wrong side of the tracks, fresh out of school, working at her friend’s diner, contemplating what to do with her life. Growing up with an addicted mother and a criminal brother, she did not have the best family life. Coming from a very shattered home life, Regan was used to taking care of herself and was a pro at keeping people at a distance.
Jeremy was a drop dead gorgeous, rich boy, from LA, who was used to having everything that he desired. While this has been the lifestyle he had been accustomed to his entire life, he hates all the fake people associated with it, especially woman who only want him for his good looks and bank account. He is tired of being under his father’s thumb and is anxious to make a name for himself.

From the time their paths crossed at the diner, neither could get the other out of their minds. Although intrigued with Jeremy’s good looks, the last thing that Regan wanted to do was get involved with a snobby, rich brat who had everything handed to him on a silver platter. Jeremy could not get the beautiful waitress from the diner out of his mind. Jeremy was no stranger to beautiful woman—they throw themselves at him regularly, however there was a realness to Regan that added to her physical beauty; a combination that Jeremy just could not get out of his mind. Jeremy, confident and use to going after what he wants, remains diligent in pursuing Regan, until she succumbs to his charm and wit, and the sexual tension that neither can deny.

A roller coaster of emotions, sexually explicit, and full of love and laughter, Until There Was You, I that makes a story that leaves your heart full and believing that happily ever after might just be possible after all.

I really hope this author continues this series with all sorts of words and fun facts! The kids loved it.

If you are looking for a quick, fun easy read then this is it! It’s a fun little novella that moves along quickly but you find yourself wanting to know more about Shamrock and Clover and how they came to be after finding out about Shamrock’s past. This was my first time reading a novella and I found myself wanting more of a back story and these two characters and how their paths crossed in my detailed ways. It’s definitely a very fast paced read and I would hope that there will be more books to follow.

Layla is a human who hunts vampires as that is what she was raised around with her family. Her next target takes her for a spin since Sam is someone she can’t keep her eyes off of. She doesn’t want him (That’s her brain talking, not her heart), but she needs his help to save her sisters. This first book is already sexy, dangerous, drama filled, and so entertaining that’ll you’ll want to finish it. BUT the cliffhanger though! I am ready for the second book immediately, so get ready for that as well! 🙂

Shamrock & Clover: Fields Apart is a cute little romance. I enjoy some things by this author. I’m starting to learn as I read more books by the author, they are hit or miss. I liked this one but I didn’t love it. Being it was a shorter story it took till about midway through for the main characters to meet. It put me off a little bit but didn’t ruin the story.
Shamrock “Patrick” is a forever bachelor. Who is starting to realize how alone he is, due to his partying ways.
Clover is a hardworking girl. One who has her head in the clouds when it comes to love.
Shamrock and Clover are perfect for each other right? Not as easy as one would think.
If you are sweet on short little romances, this book is DEFINITELY for you!

Beelzebub: The Gift of Gluttony (A Sinful Seven Novel) by J.C. Brown and Lena Lane is a paranormal romance, with fantasy, demons, and plenty of temptation. This is the first book that I have read from either of these two authors, so I was reallly excited to see what they could do- and WOW, what a story they wove. Keeping me well and truly hooked the whole way through.
What happens when one of the princes of hell sets his sights on a human baker? One who seems able to resist his ‘charms’? Well, this story is definitely worth the read to find out.
Looking forward to exploring more of these two talented authors work.
Happy reading!

Thank you, J.C. Brown and Lena Lane!

Romance is my guilty pleasure genre, so I absolutely love this book. It was everything I had imagined it was. Regan is such an amazing character in this story. I feel like I can relate to her because of the horrible home life before I moved out. The ups and downs in this story I feel like are based on a real relationship. Every relationship goes through ups and downs and get through them like Regan and Jeremy does. I highly recommend this story if you love romance.

Clover has been searching for her luck ever since her grandmother Sophie told her the story of a shamrock having the luck that holds faith, hope and love together. Sophie has recently passed and Cliver feels there is nothing left. That’s when she meets Patrick, or Shamrock as he is known to his friends and every woman he has ever had contact with. Shamrock is realizing that his life is no longer just about partying and having fun with women, it’s about finding the one that makes his heart skip a beat. It took him years to realize that love wasn’t as bad as he thought it was. There first meeting wasn’t exactly how you would think love would bloom but he found a way to show her there was way more to his reputation than what she heard. Hope to see more from Clover and Shamrock in the future.
