This book was a great read! I felt the author described the main characters’ chemistry with one another in enough detail to feel it as a reader. I enjoyed the characters in the story and feel they were well-developed and believable. I fell in love with Gil’s eccentric family. A plot twist near the middle of the book left me wanting to not put down the book until I the end. I recommend this book for anyone wanting a feel-good romance story.

This was my first book by this author so I had no real expectations going in and I can say I was pleasantly surprised. I really appreciated how well written it was, all of the detail made everything really clear and easy to picture everything playing out in my head.
The chemistry between the two characters was really believable and could almost be felt through the pages, the trauma that they have both endured had me feeling all kinds of emotions and really feeling invested in their story.
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future!

This book is so beautiful. Faith goes through so many challenges. Her faith may quiver a couple times but it never dies. She has a strong belief in God. She is such a strong character. Thomas and Nico bring her joy and pain but she holds firm to God’s plan. Very engaging from the beginning, I found it had just the plot had just hte right amount of twists to keep it exciting. A beautifully written, Christian romance that warms your heart and leaves you feeling good. I strongly recommend it. I just can’t say enough as to how much I enjoyed it.

Wolfe – Review by Shelly Kittell
While I did enjoy the overall storyline, especially the family dynamic of Gil’s, I did find (Un)Loved a bit difficult to get fully immersed in. The main characters were just not that likable to me and Sophie’s inner dialogue was frustrating and annoying. Gil and Sophie are co-stars who begin dating and fall in love. However, Gil’s commitment issues and Sophie’s life crisis and needs for change are hinders to these two being together. I do appreciate that they came together and found some balance but I just could not fully connect with them. I also like that the story also deals with a woman taking a stand for herself and letting her own life be first. I wish I was able to because it was a nice read and good start to the Mixed Emotions series.
This is not only a hilarious read but a truly unique story as well. This author has a wild imagination. The story follows Lockwood King who’s life changes irreversibly after eating a gumball. What follows next is a zany adventure filled with humour, magic, sea witches and tentacles. The characters are delightful and quirky especially the cigar smoking octopus. I would love to read more about these characters. There are so many possibilities to turn this into a series. Hint, hint!

Book Two was a very interesting installment of this series and I could not put it down. If you enjoy sci-fi fantasy storylines with a bit of adventure, you will enjoy this book.
If you’ve read book one, you know that it ended with Harry diving into stasis. While in stasis, he dreams of his other lives while he was living outside of stasis. In book two you follow Harry as he faces his next adventure and challenges, all while contemplating his next step.
The author excels at constructing a magnificent story and fills us in with Harry’s backstory. She left plenty of room for more adventures in this series. I hope she plans on writing more engaging additions to Harry’s life story. She really makes you think about what would go through your mind if you were in Harry’s shoes and lived through multiple lives/life forms.
I enjoyed this compelling gem of a book and think other sci-fi fans will too.

This is such a cute romance. I really enjoyed how it brings you into the world of cosplay and comic cons. Layla is such a huge fan of Vic’s and she can’t help but fan girl like crazy when she bumps into him. I love that because it’s just so relatable. It shows the struggles to make it in that industry and the obstacles that can pop up particularly for a woman like Layla. I really enjoyed the chemistry between Vic and Layla. He’s just so sweet and down to earth and they’re absolutely adorable together! They face some pretty rough stumbling blocks along the way. I just couldn’t put this book down, I had to see how it would end and I was more than happy with the sweet ending.

Alpha fated mates romance, with a smart FMC and swoon worthy single dad
4.5 rounded up
Book 2 in a (currently) set of 3, but each can be read as a standalone. There’s some easter eggs and hints as to what occurs in the other books but as they seem to run simultaneously in time there’s not many big spoilers if you don’t know what you’re looking for.
I absolutely love the pairing of Mason and Riley. This book also kind of gives us two books in one as we also see the fated mate pairing of Alexa and Miles occur at the same time (and do I want to read that book to know what they’re thinking and feeling!).
An insta connection is formed due to the Mason and Riley being fated mates, but the journey of them being together isn’t forced and feels organic outside of that connection. I loved that Riley is so taken with Archer, Mason’s son, and is a supportive role model right away. I also really enjoyed that Riley isn’t your average pretty FMC, she’s an outdoorsy scientist type who isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty. I found Mason’s love and devotion to his son to be swoon-worthy and made the character more well rounded than just being the pack alpha.
Also, I abhor Thea as a character and the tension she’s adding on the building relationships in the books so far, but I also want her to find her person and see her get her just deserts in having to fight for that relationship.

Love, love, love this story. Growing up one of my favorite stories was the Swan princess. To this day I love fairy tales and fantasy stories. This hit it on the nose. We have the evil with, the royal family that doesn’t listen( always the king), we have romance, violence, an evil curse, etc. I highly recommend this book. I hope there’s a sequel, a prequel, and anything else that could possibly happen.

A shifter based paranormal romance. Includes military, fake identity, accidental pregnancy romance.
Right off the bat I have to say that I really enjoyed the levity that Goose the Goat and little hellion Miranda brings to this mostly serious book. This one is also a fairly quick read of only a few hours, but it kept me thoroughly engaged and rooting for Macy and Brandon to make it work.
Macy is the daughter of the alpha of a rival pack, and is expected to wed another when she meets her fated mate Brandon, a soldier, out at a club. After one passionate night they’re lost to one another for five aching years. When Brandon stumbles into Macy again the connection is still there, but is the desire to be together?
I enjoyed the military aspect of this novel, and the fact that Brandon’s unit was a covert one which utilized their shifter abilities. I also enjoyed seeing a bit of Macy’s strength, for ex her struggle of finding her own feet while being a single parent to baby and young child Miranda. I enjoyed the pairing of Macy and Brandon and hope to read more about them in snippets in the future books (hopefully there will be more as I am really enjoying this series).
I also enjoyed the little catch ups we got to see of the main couples from books 1 and 2 (and more), though they’re more easter eggs to get you to want to read those rather than straight out spoilers of what occurred in those books.

Second chance paranormal shifter romance. An emotional wringer.
4.5 rounded up.
A fairly short read (a few hours), this is the first book in a series. This novel is not a straight forward romance and will put your emotions through the wringer! Heads up that this book has easter eggs as to things that happen in the other books as they read as if they are happening simultaneously for the most part.
This book follows Annabelle and Derek, and their journey back to one another.
I enjoyed the slight murder mystery that occurs in this book alongside the journey Annabelle and Derek must go through to be back together. There’s hesitancy on both their parts, which is understandable after being apart, and thinking the other didn’t care in the same way, for eight years.
In this series the men are the shifters (werewolves) but it’s not the kind we’re used to reading about, where they’re larger than normal wolves but basically the same; here, the werewolves are some hybrid animal that takes over control of the body only on the full moon and sometimes when emotions get too extreme.
I really enjoyed the additional input of side characters, some of whom we see more of in the future books in this series.

This story is so good! It was like having a conversation with a neighbor one evening on the porch sitting in a rocking chair. Hearing their story because they trusted you to share it with. I really enjoyed the authors easy writing style and how the story just flows. I had never heard of La Llorona until this book. The weight that is carried because of her tale and the burdens of ancestors can flow through generations. Mercy is so much stronger than she realizes and deserves all of the happiness. This book will make you want to hug Mercy and tell her its ok to let the light in. I will definitely be reading more by this author!

Both of these stories included in this book are prequels to the life of Logan. In Bella-An Appalachian Love Story we read the background of Logan’s great grandmother, Norah and the struggles and hardships she faced in the Appalachian country. We also meet Giovanni, an Italian immigrant and his gift for creating beautiful violins. Reading the back history was helpful as we moved into Jagged Dawn, the story of Logan’s beginnings.
Logan finds out some of her family history and is gifted a beautiful violin. She rarely has time to play anymore with all the demands of work and married life. She’s asked to take over the training for a specific company and questions the request since her husband did the vast majority of the family training. On the way home, tragedy strikes this family. Will Logan ever be the same again? Will she ever make beautiful music on her family heirloom again?
I enjoyed both of these stories. I was attracted to this story because of the cover as well as my love for music. I’ll be checking out more of this author’s work as I’d like to read even more of Logan’s story!

This Romance story is the first book that I have read by this author and it won’t be the last. This story followed Ian and Grace. They met by chance and their story was a whirlwind. Secrets were kept and when they came out hearts may or may have been! I enjoyed following their story and I am looking forward to more by this author! Happy Reading!
This is such a great paranormal romance book. Sam is a vampire and Layla has been trained to hunt and hate vampires. They are immediately drawn to each other but Layla tries her hardest to play it off and pretend that she isn’t. As they’re forced to work together to save her sister she starts to realize that she has some preconceived notions that were wrong. They face so many obstacles if they want to stand any chance of making a relationship between them work. This book is full of action, the paranormal, heat and romance that will have you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what will happen next. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series!

Oh snap Batman! The twists and turns that happen in this second book kept me on the edge of my seat! To take vengeance or not to is the question Seth asks himself daily. He is still hurt by the way his life has taken, but his love for Miriam is what keeps him going, or I hope it does. Miriam has placed a huge amount of trust into Seth hands, and hope that he doesn’t completely crush it in his hands. Peter the poor kid is so lost and trying to find his place in the world. I can’t wait to read more!!! The apocalypse is happening and our Edanians are trying to find their way!

This book was not what I expected. The content was different and I didn’t know how to feel starting it. I found this empowering. One of the most original stories I have read in a long time. A slave owner that already owns it all? A woman that has nothing willing to take a huge risk? I don’t know if it was just me but this book touched me. Four stars, I am interested in reading more from this author. A great take on history and romance and interracial couple.
This was such a fun, unique book! I haven’t enjoyed a book this much in a long, long time. It was so unique, I have never read anything like this before. The characters were each individual and had their own personality. They were well-rounded and entertaining. I so want them as friends. The creatures in this book are not ones I have read about before. I really want to see more of the characters — especially Clyde. He is my favorite in this book.
The story itself, is again something I have not seen before. It all revolves around a gumball. Who would think of that? And who in their right mind would think this is perfect! Such a brilliant mind is behind this wonderfully fun, unique, and interesting book. I highly recommend it and need to read more books set in this world.

This romance is so absolutely perfect I just couldn’t put it down. Layla loves the Nerd scene all the way from regular super hero’s to making the best cosplay costumes. As a nerdy girl myself I totally related to Layla, but when our author introduced Layla’s crush Vic I related even more. This author did such an amazing job with this book from its originality, to its wonderful character development, and the atmosphere was perfect. While there was some pacing issues in this novel, it is still one of the best romances that I have read this year and I will be definitely looking forward to more from this author.
This was truly a beautiful and wonderful read. I mean true love, a fairy tale, romance, secrets, and some drama what more could a girl ask for. While this author was a new author to me I will definitely be looking out for more from her. Her character development was just simply amazing, then storyline and romance was perfect in every way, I just simply couldn’t put it down. So if your looking for a great fairytale romance to read this weekend make sure you pick this one up today, trust me you won’t be disappointed.

I really enjoyed this trilogy! I am always happy when I start reading a series of books where I can already have my hands on all 3 books. I read this on my kindle as one big book and got caught up in the story. It had a mix of paranormal romance, magic, suspense, and action. The author did a great job creating the world and the characters were really well developed. By the time I was finishing the first part, I was invested in both the story and the characters. I had no problem reading this as a standalone series, but I know that she has written more books that I look forward to reading that are connected to this world.
This book had a little bit of everything one usually likes to see in a paranormal romance, magic, witches and shifters. It was a unique nod to some of the childhood fairy tales we grew up with. The cursed prince, Odhran, ends up being a despicable being along like his father. While Cathal, who grew up believing Odhran to be his younger brother, did all that he could to protect him, even nursing on of the royal swan’s back to health. Injuring on of the royal swans comes with a brutal punishment. Throughout the book the main characters face unimaginable challenges as the work to have their happily ever after.
The world building in this book was well done. The characters were well written, in some ways they were even relatable. The villains have you despising them and hoping karma catches up with them while others have you rooting expressly for their HEA. The use of modern language did take a little getting to get use to. There was also a significant amount of cruelty and brutality which may be uncomfortable for some, with the exception of that I would recommend giving Kiss of the Swan a read. It really does have HEA.

This was the first book I had read from this author, but I really enjoy new versions and twists on old fairytales. This story is a mash-up of Sleeping Beauty, a Hans Christian Anderson story, and a Grimm fairy tale. I enjoyed the new take on these stories and the way the author combined them into this unique version. For fans of fantasy and fairytales, there are so many wonderful elements to this story: a clever witch, an evil villain, a violent king, a kind-hearted hero, a brave queen, and magical shapeshifters. I highly recommend this story, but I do want to include a trigger warning since the story does include brief snippets of the king’s violence against women. I read this in one day and did not want to put it down! I look forward to reading more stories from this author.

Valia Lind wrote an incredible trio where magic is at your fingertips. I enjoy fantasy paranormal books immensely but I really couldn’t get enough. I enjoyed ever second and cannot wait to see more from the author. It was a place I could only dream of visiting with characters I could only dream of knowing! Really really enjoyed.

A companion book, this was short and sweet where age is a factor and romance is in the air. I have never read anything from this author nor did I read the first book, but this book was good enough that it made me grab its companion to read! Story was well written and the characters were interesting to learn about!

A YA PNR box set that all supernatural lovers of all ages should be added to your TBA list. It is full of romance and magic and faeries, witches, and shifters, plus a whole slew of supernatural beings, suspense and action, betrayal, and adventure. A highly entertaining read with enemies to lovers. The world building is exciting and enticing, and the characters we get to see grow and develop and go on adventures with. The plot has even more twists and turns as Maddie tries to stop evil, work on her magic and meet others’ expectations. Maddie is trying to learn her powers, that is when they have not stopped working but it seems anything that could go wrong does go wrong. But not only those expectations for and of her are not what they should be. Beware the Ancients have arisen once again and are set on taking back the world.
Somebody’s hot for teacher (or student). Diego is just getting out of a bad breakup and ends up subbing for a pregnant professor. In walks Cassie. Steam, romance and some trouble. This was a romance that I could get into. The theme has been done but the author gives it a fresh touch. This is Diego’s POV and it’s nice to see romance’s from the guy’s side. Cassie’s POV is in a previous book. The characters are way too relatable. I found myself chuckling because I have some friends that party like Matty. A very entertaining book. I think romance lovers (especially those that love the heat) will find this enjoyable. I also think the second chance romance lovers will love it. I highly recommend it.

Now, I am not into books about zombies but I do love dystopian novels so figured I would give this one a try. The author does a fantastic job building this dystopian world that makes you feel as though you are a part of it. The characters are intricate, mysterious and sometimes annoying just like the people we meet in everyday life.
We start out meeting Baron who seems to be from nowhere but is a survivalist in the midst of a viral outbreak that not only kills its host but brings them back to life as the undead. When he needs a fix on his bike he rolls into this seemingly idyllic town that is not like anywhere he has been. First off, this town has no zombies that he can see and the people are interacting, happy in their everyday lives. While his bike is getting fixed he meets an undead and is ceremoniously attacked by the townspeople where he ends up killing a man. This man happens to be attached to a very attractive female who is immortal and now Baron finds himself at her mercy having to take the place of her companion and protector. This starts a whirlwind adventure for Baron as he works with Talia to find an end to this viral outbreak as well as learn more about his past. However, this virus seems to erupt in cycles and with so many trials the duo must survive before they can figure out how Talia might be the cure to what is infecting the human race. This book was full of twists, turns, and action that makes you fall in love with the characters while also despising their flaws. I will definitely keep my eye out for any upcoming books in this series and read through them to see what comes next!

I have read many books by this author and will always snatch up a book written by her.
In this book, we meet Lockwood, aka Lock, who is leaving work after a long day. On his way home, Lock stops at a gas station to pump gas and then decides to buy a gumball out of a candy machine. The gumball that comes out is black and odd things start to happen to Lock that he can’t explain.
The characters are well written and I connected to them through humor and their interactions. The descriptions of where the book takes place and what’s happening added to not only the story but also to my enjoyment. The author’s creativity is one of my favorite things about reading her books.
This was an interesting story! It is my first by this author and both stories included in this book are prequels to the author’s Logan McKenna Mysteries Series, so I thought this was a good place to start! I really enjoyed the opportunity to get to know the characters and their stories before diving into the series! Both stories are well written with Bella: An Appalachian Love Story taking you back in the past and introducing you to Logan’s grandmother and her story and Jagged Dawn especially helps to build the character of Logan and what she has gone through.
Overall I would recommend these stories and I cannot wait to begin reading the series!
