Toasted (Love Burns Series Book 1) by Isobel Reed – Review by Carrie Reed

Toasted (Love Burns #1)Toasted by Isobel Reed
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A wonderful and simply perfect small town romance. I love how Libby and Zack chance meet, due to a house fire caused by her toaster. That cracked me up, especially her thinking and taking allowed about the toaster. Zack is infatuated right away and I fall in love with the way he falls in love with her. His possessive moments of her are also super hot. Her reasons for not wanting a relationship are valid but, all the “love” she saw growing up was with her mom and her boyfriends, never her, she needs to take a chance. Her friends Rachel and Cat are the perfect girlfriends to have in her corner and to give it to her straight. I really look forward to Cat and Cody’s story. From the way they interact at the end of this book, I know it will be a fun ride.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I almost didnt read this book because of the content. I have struggled with anxiety and depression for years and a few years ago witnessed a shooting that left me traumatized so I wasn’t sure how I would handle this book but I did enjoy reading it. There was so many aspects to it from childhood trauma, ptsd, anxiety, and depression that are real and people struggle with every single day. Those things made it a great read because it made it relatable.

Evil Sushi (Evil Sushi #1)Evil Sushi by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I picked up this book as C.A. King has become an auto read author for me after reading several of their other works. The cover was also eye-catching and as an individual allergic to the majority of Sushi a way to interact with it without dying. That said I did not die from reading Evil Sushi but did enjoy this book. There was a lack of character connection and depth. The premise of the story was different from other books I have read. 

Two fishermen in a world running low on resources find the catch of a lifetime! If only they knew the truth to these fish from down below. What waits in the dark depths of the ocean? Pick up the book for a most unique reading experience and find out!

The Strategist (WaterFyre Rising Book 5) by Nadia Han

The Strategist is the fifth book in the WaterFyre Rising Series and is a Romantic Suspense that will have you turning the pages till the end. I was pulled in from the beginning and found myself lost in the pages. I however read it in one afternoon sitting because I had to know how things were going to play out. These two definitely have chemistry between them. Vivian and Arrow, he’s a navy seal with a very haunting past and she’s a dentist who doesn’t make time or have much time for romance. Can these two get a second chance at Romance even after only one night? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

The Handshake Agreement (Book #1) by A. Akinosho – Review by Angela Hayes

The Handshake AgreementThe Handshake Agreement by A. Akinosho
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

The Handshake Agreement (Book #1) by A. Akinosho is a contemporary romance with second chances, age gap, angst, drama, emotion, pain, heartache, challenges, family, possessive alpha-type MMC, sister’s best friend element, an agreement, tension, chemistry, and spice.
Fate has a plan for our MC’s even if they don’t fully realise it. But, as expected from Ms. Akinosho, she doesn’t take it easy on them- dragging them through the wringer and putting them and their love (and determination) to the test- and making them work for their (second) chance at happiness.
I really did want to love this story much more than I did, as Ms. Akinosho a great tale- but this time around I found it hard to connect with the characters, which made it difficult to immerse myself in their story, or invest in them and the ultimate outcome. Because of this, I found myself really frustrated most of the time. But I put this down to a ‘me’ thing- so we’ll see what Ms. Akinosho does with the next book.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, A. Akinosho!

I have read a few of these authors’ books to my niece and she loves them. This book teaches you what happens when you get a boo boo. . My niece loves that the pictures for the story go so well with each other. She also loves that it makes learning fun.

Then the story goes into how your body is healing his knee. Will he leave his bandage alone or will he not listen to his mom?

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache Series) by E.L. Roux – Review by Beverly Finnie

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Unrequited Love is a cute supernatural romance. The author gives the reader a brief overview of the characters, though the development is a little rushed. Overall I thought it was a good story despite the minor forced scenarios.
Jordan, a “Cafe owner” gets annoyed that her ex-fiancé is bugging her every day and blaming her for it. Jordan isn’t quite human which leads to her sensitive things not always being cut and dry. When Cane approaches her with a proposition. He needs her to help with a ceremony, unfortunately for Jordan, it’s the woman that’s currently with her ex. Jordan has some reservations but ultimately accepts his request. Now can they keep it professional.
Jordan is beginning to realize that Cane is a good looking man. One she’s been silently pining for.
Will they be successful?
Will they acknowledge the elephant in the room?
Again this is a short story that leaves the reader wanting more for these characters as well as more throughout. I enjoyed the dynamic but I wanted more. I look forward to more by this author in the future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Libby’s welcome to town is a toaster fire…which brings the local firefighters right into her kitchen. Zach, a responding firefighter, and Libby have instant chemistry. While Libby is trying to protect her heart, Zach’s determination to break down her walls and win her over may be just what she needs!

This is a light-hearted story with humor and, let’s not forget, hot firefighters! It was quite entertaining and kept me reading from beginning to end in one sitting. I enjoyed Libby and Zach’s characters…and we are introduced to other firefighters that I could see being the main characters in future books.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Boss of Centocelle (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome) by P.J. Mann. This is the newest addition in the Commissario Scala Mystery and it was just as good if not better than the other 5. I do recommend reading them all in order however they can be read as standalones. This edition has Detective Scala in Italy investigating the death of 2 cousins who were up to no good. These cousins are deep in the drug underworld and when he starts investigating he realizes that there is trouble in the drug world. They are fighting among themselves and that’s always good for the investigators! What Detective Scala doesn’t account for is this case taking him away from his family more so than usual and they aren’t happy about it. Will he be able to figure out how to have balance where his family isn’t missing him and still be able to get his job done? This thriller will have you flipping pages late in the night on the edge of your seat. I love this series so much!

Five Tries to Get It RightFive Tries to Get It Right by Kathryn Dodson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five Tries to Get It Right is a heart-wrenching and yet tugged at my heart-strings story of love, friendship, loss, grief, promises and mental illness. The author did a great job navigating the friendship between Lydia and Kate in this story that really brought issues to light. What would you do to keep hope to save your best friend…..this story really brings that question to mind as Lydia and Kate pack up and explore Spain, Amsterdam, the Caribbean, Australia, and Costa Rica in hope to rekindle their bond of friendship.

Going on an adventure is all Lydia wants to do after dealing with the death of her husband and her daughter leaving to study abroad, Lydia is grasping to help as well with Kate as she does not want to feel that she will lose her as well. Kate is dealing with her issues of her divorce and losing her own company….the will to live is no longer there. Lydia will do anything not to lose Kate as well and with their time together on their trip, Lydia hopes that Kate will regain the spark she always had.

This story really is touching and while the topic is difficult, this story is very well written and I highly recommend this read. Another great story by Kathryn Dodson!

Make Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald CreekMake Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald Creek by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a second book in the series. I did not read the first, but I plan on going back to do that next! I can’t wait to see more books this author writes, and hoping that this series will continue.

This is the story of a single mom, Shayna and her best friends business partner, Burke. Right from the beginning, the chemistry is off the chart! One of the best parts though, is the relationship that Burke has with Shayna’s children. Shayna has to decide if she can be with someone that treats her the way she deserves to be treated. The story has a slow burn, and I’m here to tell you that you want to be there for it all. The author does such an amazing job of making you feel like you are in the book with them. This was one book that I could not put down!

Eh its okay. I liked the thought of weird shifters. I struggled with the flow of the story and romance part. I felt for Ducky and her loneliness but I am not sure about the third form. That was different. I personally was unliking of that element of the story but see how it helped move the story another way. The ending was abrupt in the relationship area but came to a conclusion in the secondary story

The Handshake AgreementThe Handshake Agreement by A. Akinosho
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging contemporary romance, with a second chance theme which kept me happily turning the pages. Anne was rather cynical about falling in love and Declan didn’t plan on marrying for love, until they met and fell in love with each other. However, Anne’s world was shattered with one text from Declan on their wedding day simply saying “I’m not coming.” Unknown to Anne an agreement that Declan made years before he had even met her resurfaced presenting him with a dilemma, ultimately he had no choice but to hurt Anne. Years later and Declan is back in Anne’s life and is demanding that she give him a second chance, but she’s now engaged to another man. However, having found her again Declan is not about to let her marry someone else, and is determined to do anything to make her give him a second chance. Anne was a very likeable and relatable character, whilst Declan was a more difficult character to like especially as he was a real player at the beginning and slightly arrogant. However, he changes once he falls in love with Anne and the chemistry between them really came across in the story. The storyline had plenty of drama, suspense, angst and of course romance, and along with the plot twists I was hooked from start to finish.

Not So Little Things Audio Book by Kyle Ann Robertson – Review by Shelly Kittell

5/5 stars

This was a wonderful story. It’s so beautifully complicated. I could relate so well to it. After my stepfather passed, I found out things weren’t what I thought they were. That really hurt, I thought he was my world. I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. It’s amazing how much we can relate. I found the characters to be unique and entertaining. Their personalities really showed through. Every personality had so much to work with and on. I really ended up having to listen to this story in virtually one sitting because I was totally drawn it. I found the narration to be good. It’s a story worth using that credit on.

The Boss of Centocelle: An Italian Murder Mystery (Book 6) (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome)The Boss of Centocelle: An Italian Murder Mystery (Book 6) by P. J. Mann
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Boss of Centocelle is the sixth book in the Commissario Scala Mystery. Even though it is part of a series it can be read as a standalone read. However that being said these stories are so good you will want to read more.
This is another gripping crime read that is full of suspense , twist and turns and connections you can’t see coming. It enters the dangerous world of drugs, gangs and the unfortunate consequences of the people who get involved.
What I also love about these books is that the author gives us a deep insight into Commissario Scala’s life and how his job affects his loved ones.

This is a fast paced story dealing with gangs and drugs. And when 2 cousins turn up dead Scala has to unravel a tangled web to find out who was responsible. Was it gang related? Were they killed by a Rival gang or by their own? What was the reason?
As Scala starts to unravel this case another young man is found murdered. He is part of this gang too? If not why was he targeted? And does his death have anything to do with the suspects Scala is currently watching?

This is a story which will keep you gripped, with dangers, jealousy, betrayal, gangs and so much more. It is a very cleverly woven story which I really enjoyed.

This was a cute little story about a girl who bonded with a dragon. I think many kids will enjoy the story because what child doesn’t dream of owning a pet dragon. I also believe the story shows children how to stick with their beliefs even if everyone else thinks differently. The main character, Wynnie, believes that the dragon can be a great pet and works to prove that. I recommend this story for all the children who love to dream of owning a dragon.

Another one for my all time favourite reads list !

Meg and Ryan Kinkaid grew up as neighbours and his grandparents loved her like their own , I mean Meg and grandpa Hank were as thick as thieves !

So Ryan has built yurts for tourists and Hank has come across some old stuff he wants to share with Meg and her quaint store . There are photos which are rather valuable but also hold a sad part of history which Ryan is aware of but he’s trying to right the wrongs of the past , this just makes me love him even more , it speaks volumes of his character …..

Hank and most of the town know these are meant for each other but they don’t 🥰🤣🙈he thought having Meg there might make them realise what they already know 🤣and don’t panic they eventually get there 🥰what a joy it was to be part of their journey I laughed , I cried and I cheered them on their way …

Meg’s dog Colby 🐾🥰also loves Hank and I just love how excited they get to see each other ! There’s just something about a small town and it’s people that gets me 🥰

Love you Hank , Meg , Ryan and Colby 🥰

Summer of Mud by Rebecca Bischoff – Review by Brandy Rymer

Summer of MudSummer of Mud by Rebecca Bischoff
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Summer of Mud was such a heartwarming book about the true kindness of people and a lesson of perseverance. Rebecca Bischoff has written a real tear-jerker novel with such a strong lesson that life may not always bring what we expect, but good things are yet to come if we persevere. As we meet our main characters, Scoob and RC, we see they are doing everything they can to make ends meet for their survival. They had their mother leave them years ago, and after their father passed the year prior, they became homeless, all they had was their musical instruments and each other. Musical talent does not have an age limit, as we see through the brilliant trumpet playing of Scoob, a 12-year-old prodigy who is determined to find a gig playing in a band to help support her and her older brother. Unfortunately, RC has other plans for the two of them, taking them far from home in California, to take a road trip to where he claims to have a big job playing in a music festival. To Scoob’s surprise, they end up in Rexburg, Idaho where they meet up with a girl in a restaurant, Cherish, who RC seems to have a crush on and doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to leave. Scoob and RC meet so many different types of people, from snobbish locals, and suspicious shop owners, as well as police officers looking to question them. They finally come across some nice, good Samaritans who are all about helping those in need with no questions asked on whether they were being honest about who they were or the situation that brought them to town.

This book is a great read that had me in tears by the last few chapters as I followed our characters through their ups and downs. There were times when I wasn’t sure if they would be able to make it through all of the situations that they were caught up in. There were moments when I was in shock by the outcomes that didn’t seem like they could ever survive, it just broke my heart. If I could give this story more than 5 stars I would, because it was such a beautiful story showing how strong community is, especially when times are tough.

Can I Keep Her? (Kingdom of Mir Series) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Rita White

What a good little book for ages 4-8. The illustrations are remarkable with bright colors and with great detail. I read this story to my 4 year old granddaughter, and she loved it. This story is twofold for me. It teaches a child that sometimes you have to try something (under adult supervision) that an older person might not think is the best. It also teaches children that if you work or train something (the dragon) and take time to help and make it understand to follow rules or commands that it makes all the difference in the world.

Click here to experience a Chapter Reading of Delicious Death (Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries Book 2) by Byrd Nash

Spinning tales of subtle magic with unexpected twists, she packages satisfying stories that reads like no others. Byrd writes the book you need, not the one you expected.

Described by one reviewer as a “literary glass of bourbon after a long day,” and another: “When I get a Byrd story, I know I’m in good hands.”

Whether it is a Doppelgänger who was once a medieval knight now working in college administration, or an updated Red Riding Hood escaping a post-WWI wolf pack, her characters all feel real.

That Celtic goddess at the pet store? She’s someone you know. A medieval queen fleeing an abusive marriage? You experience her pain and triumph.

With a B.A. in journalism, she worked as a newspaper reporter, covering news, schools, and lifestyle for both weeklies and dailies. She was the first journalist to serve as director of The Forest Heritage Center in Beavers Bend State Park, Oklahoma.

Her hobbies include reading, nature hikes, and traveling when she has the money. She seldom has the money. Married to a man who reads all her books but with two adult children who never read them. Byrd has cats, which makes her a legit author.

What a great informative book. I feel like I just had a science lesson! I loved the rhyming of the story and the little facts also on the page. My 4 year old granddaughter loved me reading her this book. She was more interested in the story and not so much in the facts. The facts will be used and read better by the older children. The illustrations are fabulous and depict the story great.

Another great book in the Life Is Hell Series. This is book 5 of the series, and this book follows Jezebel and Hadassah. Hadasdah is Mals’ brother and is a spoiled brat. There are a lot of ups and downs in this book with these characters, but it all comes together at the end. We see a lot of the previous characters in this book. This is an F/F book with great characters, a fast-paced and easy read.

Things start going a little haywire in Irena’s life when her ex-husband falls overboard on a boat trip they were taking with friends. As Irena searches for Jack, the information she finds is not adding up. Jack was in mega debt. He was supposedly running a scam with a friend, Craig. Irena’s boyfriend, Buzz, is not who she thought he was.

As the web of lies starts unraveling, it looks more and more like Jack disappeared on purpose. But maybe not for the reasons everyone thinks. Maybe Jack is one of the good guys after all.

Find yourself wrapped up in this Millersville mystery. It is worth the read.
