McNamee certainly knows how to draw her readers in and send them on quite the thrill ride full of suspense and amazing chemistry. This second installment of the Inland Seas series continues the amazing journey begun in book one. Our two MC in this installment are just as magnetic and wonderfully flawed as you come to expect with McNamee. A master storyteller, this book doesn’t disappoint and kept me glued to the pages from beginning to end. I loved every word and can not recommend it highly enough! Run and get your own copy ASAP!

5 Star Al Capone at the Blanche Hotel by Linda Bennett Pennell is a wonderfully written historical romance that had me hooked from the beginning. I absolutely love Historical Romance and this one even has some suspense in it to.I love the storyline and how it alternates between the past and the present. Jack his sister Meg, Meg’s fiancé who just happens to be a deputy sheriff and Liz all play a part in this story. Al Capone checked in at the Blanch Hotel . But why was he there? What does Liz discover? Who is behind the body count in Lake City. The mystery and suspense had me on the edge of my seat at times.The characters are very well developed and easily relatable. Find out what happens next in this must read. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Eternity is the final book in the Captivity Series. I highly recommend you read Captivity & Sanctuary first as it gives you a real insight into the characters and also gives you the backstory. It also helps each book flow into each without you losing your way. Once again these two authors have created another incredible addition to this series, they have made it fast-paced, action-packed and mentally visual, it also helps you really connect to the characters and their journey. I was once again totally captivated with this read from the get-go, I had to keep turning the pages to find out what could happen next, so much so it would have me on the edge of my seat, its just such a shame that its come to an end!
I’m so glad I got to experience this read and these awesome writers. I cant wait to see what else these authors have to offer! Until then I highly recommend you check out this brilliant fantasy series!

A great read about urgency. Wilda just wants to live her life running her outfitters shop for time travellers. But life seems to have other ideas for her when a time traveller collapses in her shop due to a mystery illness. The contagion spreads to every other Temporal Agent who has Travelled recently and Wilda finds herself and her team as the only ones unaffected. Pulled out of retirement, she and Mattea Travel into the past, following three men for a cause of the illness. Can they return to the present with answers before its too late? A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Wilda sarcastic and stubborn but caring underneath or Mattea kind and naïve but stubborn underneath. Great cast of supporting characters like the supportive friend Tarren or the condescending Lady Xanthippe. I loved the visual detail throughout the novel like with the Temporal Shifter with its brass and copper and steam like something out of a sci fi novel strange and antique but with a sense of beauty and wonder. Or the scenes in Mali with the desert and the impressive palace and its caravans, full of life and colour and people wit the animals and the vibrant dress colours with sights and smells and sounds so vivid its as if you’re actually there, wonderfully written. I loved the idea behind the story of the outfitters shop for time travellers, fantastical but realistic at the same time and wonderfully written. A wonderful example of world building with the Temporal Agents living alongside other humans with their own rules and laws and customs clearly explained to the reader and wonderfully thought out tot he smallest detail, a lovely touch. I also liked the use of the past, with historical figures and cultures given the respect they deserve. I also loved the use of pronunciations at the start of the novel to make the names more easier for the reader to understand, a lovely addition. I also liked the sense of mystery throughout with the disease and the three men, with details revealed slowly to the reader, making you want to keep on reading to find out the answers. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

Out Bad by Janice Whiteaker is the first book in the Sinners or Saints series. This was a fantastic way to start a new series. It is gripping and utterly captivating immediately. You are drawn straight into the characters and everything that is going on with them. The fact that they both seem to have secrets in their past just adds to the intensity. The story has a great rhythm to it as well. The author knows exactly when to shake things up and exactly when to keep them nice and steady. Without even realising it you will find yourself flying through this book in no time at all. I always enjoy this authors work and this series seem like it will be no exception at all.

Disclaimer this is a beautiful life story that makes you weep in tears. Finding Ruth: A Daughter’s Quest to Discover Her Mother’s Past by Cynthia Hamilton is an amazing story that touches the heart of everyone who reads it. Alzheimer’s is a nasty condition that affects the family of the patient on a different level then the patient. This book is a wonderful story of a daughter’s love for her mother and what she finds out about the mother in her research. Cynthia Hamilton did an amazing job writing this story. This story took me on a roller coaster ride of emotions. I give a lot of credit to Ms. Hamilton. She is a strong woman to take the time to see her mother through her mother’s eyes. I highly recommend this story for two reasons. First, so that you can see the beauty around the life of the patient. Second to bond you closer to that person and try to see their life through their eyes.

Eternity (Captivity Book 3) by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk 5 out of 5 stars Eternity is the final book in the Captivity written by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk. This is a Paranormal Romance with a twist where shifters are captive in the future and what will they risk breaking free?

Fools Rush In: Interstellar Rescue Series Book 3 by Donna S. Frelick was a compelling read that had me hooked.
First things first, though this says book three it can be read as a standalone. But I suggest reading the other books as they are just as multi-layered and rich. With that out of the way, let’s get into it, shall we.
I have to say I did enjoyed this book far more than the others, and I believe that is because, this books takes place in space. I loved the concept, the danger and the tone. It has a bit of mystery, mixed of danger and romance, but the romance was more an add on than a main plot point, which jelled nicely. Making the story have a natural progressive feel. I love the MC’s, the detail and the world-building. It brought you into this original read and kept you there. This book is truly something to be on the lookout for, and I can’t wait to see what else there is to come.
Overall this book, this series is worth your time an energy, and it gets my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval.

September Breeze (Cinnamon Bay Romance Book 2) by Nikki Lynn Barrett
5 Stars
I did not read the first of this series and that is ok because this can be read as a standalone but it let me know I need to grab the first as well.
I loved this story, it had a lot of moving parts not just a boy meets girl. they fall in love and live happily ever after. This one had issues thrown as these two from every angle, from her past to his past and even his future. I loved the small town feel of this story and the matchmakers trio cracked me up.
I have loved every book I’ve read by this author and if this book is any indication of the rest of this series then I will definitely have them all. I was done before I knew it because it was an easy smooth flowing read. I loved all the characters and there were a couple parts where I teared up and some where I had a huge smile on my face. This was just an all around feel good read and I can’t wait for more.

This was really interesting read it had me hooked that’s for sure. I love how it was written from the past but also the present that is something I haven’t experienced very often which made it even more of an exciting read. I love reading a novel where you just get caught up within the story and lose sense of time it’s a magical feeling!

Fools Rush In is the great 3rd book in the Interstellar Rescue series and yet again another wonderful read by this author. I would highly recommend that these books are read in order for the maximum reader enjoyment however it can be read as a standalone. Again what stood out for me in this book apart from the great characters was the author’s wonderful world building. Her richly detailed writing makes the setting for this story and the characters completely come alive. I think out of this series so far this one is probably my favourite, I loved that it took place more in space than the previous books, I really felt like I was watching the story at times rather than just reading it. I loved the characters, especially Rayna; she was a fantastic female lead, strong willed, independent and definitely not someone to be messed with. I liked Sam as well and when the two met I could tell that their relationship was going to be a good one! Fools Rush in is another wonderful read in this series and again I highly recommend it!

Al Capone at the Blanche Hotel was a really great read. I was intrigued when I first read the blurb for the story, it sounded like something different to read – I have to be honest and say I was actually really surprised at how much I actually liked it. The authors writing was really good, my interest was captured from the beginning and was sustained the whole way through. I love historical romance books but this is the first time I have read one in this time period and I really liked it, it was interesting to read about a different time period. The author really brought the characters to life and I found I was fully immersed in their story. Although the story alternated between past and present the story was really easy to follow. Overall I really enjoyed this story and would absolutely recommend it to other readers.

Al Capone at The Blanche Hotel by Linda Bennett Pennell. This a new to me author but i saw this title and I absolutely knew that I had to read this book!!!! I have always been a HUGE fan of Al Capone. This book takes place in the 1930s when Al Capone stayed there. This book everything that I have always wanted to read about. I loved reading about how people lived in the 30s and also experience how the characters, Zeke, Jack and Meg, lived and what they went through. I can not wait to see what the author has in store for us next!!!

Ok this is NOT what I thought it would be. I thought it would be about a group of people who all ended up at the same place for shelter. Well I guess this is that but this so much darker or maybe evil is a better word. This story embodies the question of what would you do to survive. Everyone has limits but some are a little further down the line than others. Needless to say the character construction was really good (typical of Meghan O’Flynn). There are layers upon layers with each character. Just when you think…i have it figured out! Guess what? You don’t!
This isn’t my first Meghan O’Flynn Book and It is not my favorite. This was a little gruesome for me and there was too much narrative(too much time spent in Victoria’s head). That’s not to say it’s not a good story because it is…just not my kind of story.

Fools Rush In, is the third book in the Interstellar Rescue Series by Donna S. Frelick. I can’t convey how much I have really enjoyed reading this book, and series- it has been an awesome ride, which I hope will continue for a long while yet! This superb space adventure- has a bit of a “Firefly” feel to it- and I also think the series would make a wonderful television show. It has so much going for it, from the clever sci-fi elements, to the brilliant world building, with lots of drama, danger, suspense, emotion, action, adventure, and intrigue- which was all woven in and around a steamy romance. I actually consider this book to be a bit of a prequel to the series, as this takes us back to when and how Rayna and Sam meet. She was already working undercover for Interstellar Rescue, and he was a space pirate. Their story is everything I had hoped it would be, and I enjoyed getting to know them even better than I already did. I have loved Rayna and Sam from the moment I met them, so getting their whole story has been the icing on the cake for me. Rayna might be petite, but she’s no pushover- she’s brave, strong, skilled, funny, optimistic, and sassy- with a huge heart! She’s someone you would want on your team! Sam reminds me a lot of Malcolm Reynolds (Mal) from “Firefly”- he’s sexy, adventurous, and just a little cheeky. He meets his match in Rayna though, and how the sparks fly! One of my favourite couples, yet! OMG, now that I have finished all the books in the series (to date), I really, really, really hope there are many more to come- and soon!!! (Hint, Hint, Hint, Ms. Frelick!) ? Such an entertaining, well written and intriguing story/series- highly recommended!!

This wonderful story is specifically targeted to an audience in the tween/teen category. It is detailed, quirky, quick witted, and deals solidly with real troubles facing that age group without being condescending or belittling. I found the premise charming and the MC relatable and funny. I really enjoyed reading this book and believe, no matter what age you are, you will find something to love in these pages.

Dangerously Close To Extinction (Knollville Legends Book 1) by C.A. King
5-Stars
Dangerously Close To Extinction (Knollville Legends Book 1) by C.A. King was a fun and exciting fantasy novel. I loved Tawny and Felix and the variety of shifters in this novel. The author did an amazing job and was very creative with them. I also really enjoyed the plot and felt that the storyline was easy to follow. The reader is immediately pulled in at the start of the novel with the mention of Tawny’s dad disappearing. The story progressed quickly from the start which made it difficult for me to put down.
Something else I enjoyed about this novel was the artistic cover. It was very appealing and I felt like it drew me in and helped increase my interest in reading the novel.
Overall this novel was an easy and enjoyable read. I definitely look forward to the next book in the series and I highly recommend it!

King – Review by Madison Degraffenreid
What an excellent start to the Shattered Hearts Series! I actually read this book twice in the matter of a week. While this story revolves around Jasmine and Angel, it ultimately is the story of a group of friends that have known each other forever and there are so many things going on, I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss anything before I start book 2!
Angel swore he would always be there for Jasmine. Since childhood, he has been her protector. But once he joins the marines, he can no longer uphold his promise and tragedy strikes, not only in Jasmine’s life but also in his own. Years later he returns home to find everything has changed. Jasmine is no longer the happy, innocent young girl he left, but a full grown woman that he can’t seem to resist. But there is too much baggage between the two of them that keeps pulling them apart. They each have one single act, one single moment in their lives that has irrevocably changed them. That has made one stop trusting others and one stop trusting themselves. One moment, that when it returns to your thoughts, terrifies you enough that it takes you to the depths of hell and back over and over – in your daydreams and in your nightmares. Can they fight their way through it all and finally be together? Or is it all just too much?
This book takes you on an emotional rollercoaster. You can feel the pain and suffering. You can feel it in your heart when they smile. And this is not the end. There is so much more to explore. What about Kate and Chase? What is Tony’s deal? Who is Marcus? I can’t wait to find out all the answers in the next two books in this series! I am completely emotionally invested in the lives of all these characters. Nicole Banks has me hooked!

Dangerously Close to Extinction by C.A King was a great read! I really struggled to put this book down. I would give this book a five out of five stars. I loved the air of mystery and all of the questions that you get right at the beginning. Tawny was a fun character to read, I loved her quirks and had a lot of the same questions she did.

I enjoyed this story from the very first page. Told in dual time periods, the author does an amazing job going back and forth in a very seamless way. While each element is thoroughly explored and discussed, it is done in such a way that it never seems like it is dragged on.
This book is a fantastic read and I devoured it from cover to cover.

The Flood by Meghan O’Flynn is a psychological thriller that leaves you speechless! I have read most of Meghan’s books so I thought I was prepared for the wickedness but I tell you, I was in no way prepared … she simply blew my mind and that from the prologue on … my goodness, the pictures she paints in your head using the words, I could not fall asleep the night I finished the book! The writer has given us a story that is a mix of suspense and mystery that is so twisted and nightmarish that you start looking over your shoulder and jump at the weird sounds! There is so much more there that meets the eye, the massive flood in the small coastal town in Louisiana and a couple – Chad and Victoria – being rescued by a woman called Windy taking the to a waterproof bunker … and then it starts surfacing and be prepared as nothing will prepare you! Keep your light on and sleep with one eye open!

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. I was so happy when this talented author came out with a new series. This is the first book in the Shattered Heart series and it was a perfect beginning. I was so excited for this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. Once I started I could not stop. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible story.
Angle is finally home safe and sound from the war. He has a lot of guilt in his heart due to the past. Angle is home to find a new beginning and her. He can’t stop thinking about Jasmine. She is always on his mind. Angle knows that it is wrong because she deserves so much better than him. He can’t help himself but when Jasmine starts telling her secrets, that’s when his true nightmare begins. Will these two broken souls find peace in each other or will their pasts destroy them both?
I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and forgiveness. You can’t help but fall in love with these characters. Angle had a very hard life but he learned from his mistakes. He would do anything to make Jasmine happy even leave her for good. Jasmine is a very strong character. She had something really devastating happen to her that rock her world. Jasmine has a lot of trust issues but will she finally be able to trust someone with her heart? These two characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This author will have you at the edge of your seats until the end. I can’t wait to read more of this series.

Shattered (Shattered Hearts Series Book 1) by Nicole Banks 5 stars
An amazing read by Nicole Banks, Shattered took me for a ride of emotions. I immediately loved Jasmine, and knew from the start what happened to her but wanted to actually “hear” it from her to know for sure. And Angel, oh what a tormented soul. The protector, the rule follower, the man who wants what he feels he can’t have. I really enjoyed this book, I absolutely NEED the next one because I need to know what happens next.

The Flood by Meghan O’Flynn is an exciting and intense psychological thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. This book has to be my favourite one by this author so far. The whole way through I was trying to figure out what was going to happen. Each time I thought I had it susses the author would throw in another twist or a new bit of information that threw it all back on its head. The book was such an intense read. I think partially because I could almost picture something like this happening – people stranded for days without food due to unprecedented storms. The author did a great job of basing the book firmly enough in reality that it gave the book an edge to it that most like this seem to be missing. Meghan Flynn has fast become one of those authors that I don’t bother to read the book descriptions because I know how much I will enjoy it. This is one book that I cannot recommend highly enough. You really need to get your copy today.
Fools Rush In is the third book in the Interstellar Rescue Series by Donna Frelick. These books can be a stand alone book, but you would get more enjoyment if you would read all the books in this series. Frelick paints a beautiful picture in my mind’s eye with her storytelling skills. Her characters are interactive and fully developed. I feel as if the characters are my best friends. Rayna is on a mission but she is finding herself convincing Sam a pirate to assist her. What will Sam assist Rayna in? Will it be just a mission or will there be something more?

5 Stars
This is my first book by this author and don’t have any idea why…It was amazing, it did take me a few pages to get fully immersed into the story but once it grabbed me it did not let go and I already can not wait to open the next in this series and see what is still in store for Jasmine and Angel. Things were just getting good when this book ended and Thank goodness the next one is waiting for me on my kindle.
The back and forth between these characters was rough to read, so much blame being doled out not at anyone but themselves and I can’t even imagine what Jas had been through and then the loss they all had to endure. I really loved getting the POV’s of many different characters instead of just one or two, I haven’t read many books like that and I sincerely enjoyed that part.
I highly recommend this book and as I’ve already stated can not wait to dive in to the next, I love the writing style and the flow, I could not believe I had finished so quickly.

I finished this book a few days ago and have not been able to find the words to put in this review, and I’m still not sure but going to give it my best shot.
I’m not sure if I would have chosen this book without this author’s name on it, she became a favorite of mine back while reading her Ash Park Series and now I think I’d read anything she comes up with. Choosing this book after reading the synopsis proves that.
This story affected me from word one, I was totally invested in Victoria’s character and I can not explain why but everything that occurred in this book opened up new sides to her and I truly felt like I understood her.
The rest of this story was a complete mystery that revealed itself little by little..One of those you get a whole lot of AHA moments and then immediately start trying to figure out more. I seriously had so many different endings going on in my head and was so amazed at how completely wrong I was from the start.
I thought this book would give me nightmares and thankfully it has not, but I still get chill bumps when I think about the story or even see the cover. It was AMAZING, written so that you could almost feel, see, smell, and hear exactly what these people were and I can’t recommend it enough. This amazes me because again I wouldn’t normally choose this genre but again I’ll choose anything by this author!!
