During their voyage, Evan and his companions come face-to-face with mythical creatures, fabled warriors, and treacherous sorcery. But despite the dangers all around them, Evan’s deadliest threat may be bound to him by blood…

Can Evan complete his quest before he and the gods are lost to history?

The first time Bailey Walker met Cooper Christie, he tripped her up; the second time, he stole her bra and broke her cell; and the third time, he drove away, leaving her alone at the kerb. In short, he was an ass!

The problem was that he was the hottest guy Bailey ever seen, and as much as she loathed everything about him, she couldn’t help but be attracted to him.

When her mom asked her to go dress shopping, little did she know how much her life was going to change! Not only had her mom been dating Cooper’s father in secret, she was now engaged to him and the wedding date was set.

As her new step-brother, Cooper was now completely out-of-bounds. But when does love ever follow the rules?

And The River Runs Deep: The Cold Case Murder Mystery of Leah Marcus

This story was so intriguing that I couldn’t put it down. This is the first book I have read by this author and it definitely won’t be my last. This story was so well written that it made me feel like I was right in there with it. This book is rich in detail so you can picture all of it in your mind’s eye. I don’t want to give anything away so I will just say that I was on the edge of my seat and this is a must read. I read this book in one sitting because I got so enthralled in the story that had its twists and turns and kept me wanting to find out the outcome of the story. I highly recommend this book.

Deleted by Ruth Mitchell – Review by Angela Hayes

DeletedDeleted by Ruth Mitchell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Deleted by Ruth Mitchell is a fantastic futuristic YA sci-fi story that whisks us to a possible future and gives us glimpse of what could be. There we meet Lucy and Marco, and get swept up on an adventure where tech addiction is gripping the planet, and how she discovers that it is now possible to delete another person’s memory, and rewrite their history. She ends up in a cat and mouse game in a race against time, and memory- to outwit and outplay a memory hacker who has her in his sights. Who will win out in the end? This is well worth the read to find out.
Even though this is a Young Adult novel, it can be enjoyed by all ages from young teens through to the vintage years. It has a bit of a techno-thriller feel to it, that is full of mystery, drama, romance, danger, humour, and superb world building. It is a thought-provoking, highly imaginative, and wonderfully original read.
Ruth Mitchell paints a fascinating, and entirely plausible future picture that intrigued me from start to finish. I read it in one sitting, as I didn’t want to put it down. There were times that the story was a little predictable, but that didn’t detract from my enjoyment of the story- and there were enough twists and dramatic developments to keep me turning he page to find out what would happen next.
Deleted is my first read by Ruth Mitchell, and I am happy to say that it definitely won’t be the last! This appears to be her debut novel, so I am looking forward to seeing what else she can/will do.
Looking forward to more!

Thank you, Ruth Mitchell!

Drummer’s Beat (Satan’s Devils MC Series Book 2) by Manda Mellett – Review by Jenni Bishop

Drummer's Beat (Satan's Devils MC, #2)Drummer’s Beat by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Manda Mellett can do no wrong when it comes to writing about MC’s. She gives us wonderful characters, suspense, action, romance and the best ride of our lives. This book is the second in the series and continues on from the first so I suggest you read them all in order.

Drummer is the boss, he is the head of the MC and he will always do what is best for his club, his family and anyone that is under their protection. However he doesn’t need a woman, the club has enough of those to meet his needs. But everything is about to change when he comes across a woman stranded and with a tale that no one believes.

Sam is looking for her past, the one person who can give her the answers she desires, or so she thought.

You can never go wrong with Manda and the Satan’s Devils

Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils MC Series Book 1) by Manda Mellett – Review by Jenni Bishop

Turning Wheels (Satan's Devils MC, #1)Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Turning Wheels is the start of the series that I absolutely love. Manda’s writing is so vivid that you get lost in the story and fall in love with each of the big bad alpha bikers. Brilliant and not to be missed.

Sophie is still reeling from the wounds inflicted from helping her best friend when she is once again put in the cross fire of a dangerous and completely insane past. When unexpected help turns up she is not sure if she is trading one bad situation for another. What she comes to realise is this group of people will do anything they see as theirs to keep them safe.

Wraith is the VP and he has no time for women other than to take the edge off but when a broken creature comes into his world she brings out the protective streak in him.

Targeting Dart (Satan's Devils MC, #4)Targeting Dart by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Targeting Dart is the fourth book in the series and it gets your heart pumping. I cant find enough words to compliment Manda and her inborn writing talent. She is very clever and weaves so many threads while keeping all together with so many characters that you absolutely love.

Dart takes one look at the tiny creature who just walked in and could not believe his eyes but when she takes control and let go, she is magical, she is all consuming. When things go pear shaped he can not believe what kind of monster could do such things and vows there and then his last days on earth are guaranteed.

Alex knows she is no looker but she knows her craft and her craft is spellbinding. However when her past finally catches up to her she is left for dead and can only hope that the MC find her before it is too late.

These books must be read in order.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Slick Running by Manda Mellett is a five star read that will leave you yearning more each and every time. This is book three in the Satan’s Devils MC series and is a powerful and emotional rollercoaster.

Ella decides to help the Satan’s Devils but she never could have imagined the price she had to pay. How do you tell the one person you can’t get out of your head, who you are sure will never want you after he learns the truth, what happened?

Slick thought he had found what he was looking for but that was never real, however when he finally learns the truth he can’t believe how stupid he was and just what was at stake.

Heart Broken is the most apt name for the story that Manda has given us. I still come to tears when I think about it hours, months later after finishing it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Not So Far (Love Grows series, Book 3) by Renee Regent is a second chance romance story. I suggest reading the books in order to get the full back story etc on the characters that Renee writes so well. It is a bit of an emotional read but there is lots that has happened. Renee has given us another wonderful read and you will not be disappointed and I can’t wait to see what she gives us next.

Audrey and Silas had true love, or so she thought. Now he is back in town and her feelings are just as strong but there is so much water under the bridge, so much anger, so much pain, so much lost, so many secrets.

Bottomed OutBottomed Out by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this story for a few different reasons. First off he is/was a motor cross racer. That is something not seen too often in romance books. Secondly he is wheelchair bound. I loved seeing and getting his take on things now that he is unable to be so popular. He has new struggles and challenges just in daily functions. It’s great to read how he as adapted. I won’t even mention the ladies. Lastly it’s weird how this accident affected his family. it is frustrating and in parts endearing. Then there is Lennox Austin. She is not what I expected but It turns out she is perfect for Jax.

I love the relationship between Jax and his roomie and Levi. They speak to each other only as friends can. Which includes arguments, poking fun at each other and serious talks. Then I feel Michelle deserves a nod of recognition as well. While a small character she did so much for Jax.

I enjoyed reading this and finished it at a quick pace. I loved getting to know these characters. The author wrote them so well they feel real…I loved that! I have not read any other books in this series. I did not feel like I was missing anything and this is easily a stand alone with trailers to others in the series.

This is not my first read from Brooke May and will definitely not be my last. I have always loved the way that Brooke May can pull the emotions to the surface of the story and use them in a way to tell it with a little bit of extra love. I have to say this has to be one of my favorites that I have read from her in awhile and I really loved the characters that this story includes all main and supporting make an impact perfectly. I am a huge fan of Jax, the main male lead in this story. He is a sweetheart with a disability that keeps him from feeling like he fits in or can stand as tall or strong as those surrounding him. He most certainly isn’t looking for the kind of emotions that he experiences when Lennox walks into his life. Then there is the added stress of her brother, a twist that will make things interesting. I loved how this book played out and how it even didn’t go as I had anticipated in some places and I just loved it. I can’t wait to see what will come next from the ever talented Brooke May.

Deleted by Ruth Mitchell. This story was out of my normal of reading pleasure but I was definitely pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the journey. It’s a very original story unlike anything I’ve read and I was hooked. The characters bring the story to life and completely draw you into their world. I was up well into the night because I simply had to know where this story was going and I couldn’t put it down until I knew. Each page had me trying to read faster and slower at the same time. The characters are complex and well developed. The storyline is unique and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. Very impressed by this story and author. Four big stars and highly recommended. Can’t wait to see more from this author.

This was an awesome story, it moved quickly and I was able to read it in one sitting. I couldn’t wait to read Audreys book after finishing the last one. I love second chances especially when filled with both having secrets, and in this case pretty big secrets. I will admit Silas was not my favorite male lead but Silas and Audrey together made up for it.

I loved the little twists and turns this story took and it pulled at many of my emotions and I wish there had been a little more depth to the character building and the connection shared years ago which might have helped in feeling a bit more of a connection. In saying all of that and this not being my favorite of the three I still really enjoyed the story and if there is more to this series I will absolutely be reading them.

I love this author and she has a solid spot on my must read list!

I recommend this story, actually all of this series..They can be read as standalones but grab them all, you won’t be sorry!

This is a great story following the story of Kara the princess of Starrycrest.

After her adoption by the king and queen Kara adjusts to life as a princess. She enjoys her life and her new family until Queen Misty drops some news which will change her world. Misty is pregnant.

Kara starts to doubt her place in the family, worrying that the queen and king wont need her once their baby arrives. She is always told to love the way she dances but she doesnt understand what that means.

Add to her turmoil her need to help her friend Tyler find his forever family and the threat of revenge from a Troll can she keep it all together and perform her part of Sugary Plum Fairy or will all the stress and pressure get to much for her?

I loved this story about families and love and learning that to love the way you dance means to love without being scared or holding anything back.

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara – Review by Lianne Probert

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Figure In The Flames is a box set of books containing the first three stories from Mina Chara’s Hero High collection.
Friday Fitzsimmons discovers she has a superpower , they are rare but not unheard of in the futuristic world in which these books are set. All superheroes are sent to train at the elite ‘Hero High’ which is not just a school, but also a reality TV show. Friday would much rather let others take the limelight, but when she earns the title of ‘gifted’ it soon shifts to her.
As with all High Schools Friday experiences highs and lows. But, what she doesn’t expect is to become an integral part in the fight against enemies and in the battle to save the city. Friendships are tested, mysteries are solved and battles are fought.
The books in this collection are all short, fast paced reads, aimed at the YA audience. They are brilliant if you enjoy action packed drama and have the imagination to help bring it all to life.
I love the character of Friday, she really isn’t your average superhero and she has internal struggles to conquer as well as facing the bad guys too.

And the River Runs Deep by A.J. Ullman a five-star read that took my breath away. This was an odd one for me as I adore True crime, but I don’t normally enjoy reading about it, and haven’t for years I enjoy devouring it in other mediums instead but this has re-ignited my passion as this isn’t like your typical true crime read, as it’s a novel based on an investigation, but its so well done it will leave you questioning everything. This is such a gripping tale that once you pick it up you wont be able to put it down for anything, its such a well plotted and interesting story that you need to pick it up and sink yourself into the investigation.

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara is a fantastic fantasy story all wrapped in one book. I loved the series and really enjoyed the adventure I got to take with Friday and her superhero journey. There is so much to love about the series, there is something to be said about a “dystopian” world where you watch super heroes on tv and then get to see the behind the scenes. I loved all the twists and turns that the story took and the wonderful character development. This is a great bundle to get through on a long weekend or if you have the time to just sit and devour it in one sitting.

Tangled Fates (Tangled Magic Series: Book 2) by Denise D. Young – Review by Angela Hayes

Tangled Fates (Tangled Magic #2)Tangled Fates by Denise D. Young
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

 

 

“From out of mist are wild things born.
Seek the truth beyond the thorn.
Where curses lurk and kin reside,
Fox and fire stem the tide.”

 

“Do you have faith in magic?” he asked.
My heart pounded in my chest. I fingered the rose quartz pendant with my rain-soaked, sweaty fingers. “I…” I stammered but pressed on. “Of all the things in my life, magic is the one constant.” There. I admitted it. Out loud. First time ever.
His outstretched hand waited….

 

Tangled Fates is the second book in the Tangled Magic series by Denise D. Young. This is the first book that I have read by Ms. Young, so I really didn’t know what to expect going in. I was drawn to the book by the beautiful cover and intriguing blurb. But Ms. Young had me hooked at the mention of witch and fox shifter.
I love a great paranormal story- and this book definitely cast its spell over me. Even though it is the second book in the series, that wasn’t a problem as I was able to follow the story easily. But, as the events from book one seem to have caused far reaching issues and had led to the events in this book, so I will definitely be going back to read the first book to see where everything started.
This book follows different leading characters than in the first book. We meet Vivienne (Vi) who is a fire witch, and Aiden McPherson who is a fox-shifter. They lead us on an adventure filled with magic, potions, curses, small town charm, prophecy/mystical riddles, different realms, portals, secrets, sparks/chemistry, evil, danger, drama, paranormal events and characters, romance, and more.
This is a fast-paced short story which made it a very quick and easy read. It kept me engaged the whole way through, and intrigued me into wanting to know more about the Tangled Magic world. I will definitely be following the rest of the series!

Thank you, Denise D. Young!

Not So Far (Love Grows Series Book 3) by Renee Regent was an excellent read! I finished this book in one sitting and could not put it down. Silas returns to Atlanta following the deathbed his grandfather. He and his cousin are dealing with the old farm. He takes a stroll down memory lane and meets his past love. Audrey is a recent widow and mother to three children. She has had an easy life spent with a husband who has cared for her but not in the way she desired. She craves passion and desires what she had in the past with Silas. She also has a secret that she hasn’t shared until recently. Can the two find common ground and rekindle the fire?

I loved Silas and Audrey. Audrey was spunky for such a southern lady. Silas was sweet, romantic, and definitely not the boy she used to know. Audrey’s secret had me at the edge of my seat for a bit. I had so many emotions while reading this book! It was amazing and pulled at my heart strings. I easily give it 5 stars and can’t wait to read more in this series. I highly recommend it!

This is the book I never knew I needed to spring me off into the summer with! Eat Me is the debut novel from Amber Dark and the first book of the Mayim Merman Books, hopefully that means that we will get more sexy and steamy mermen to enjoy soon!I could not put this book down!

I love mermaids as a thought though so I decided when I saw the delectable cover to give this a go and not only did I eat this up, I DEVOURED it is one fell swoop. This book is hot, hot, hot, and will have you peeking over the edge of your kindle or book hoping to not find people hearing you moan out loud or gasp as the heat is happening on the pages. I won’t give this book away because for me the blurb is enough and any more would ruin it. I loved the characters and the way they mingled so well. It sincerely felt as if I was reading something that had happened and was very real to me. I was invested in Summer and Mayim, as well as all the other supporting and fabulous characters that came along. I would run, not walk, and snag you a copy of this book today. Pair it up with some sun and a sexy drink and you will have the time of your life following Mayim and Summer!

Not So Far is the third book in the Love Grows Series from Renee Regent. I have really enjoyed the series up until now and was very ready to get my hands on this next installment. I was so blown away with how much this book completely swallowed me whole and didn’t spit me back out until I had finished that last page. I found myself just really wanting more because I couldn’t get enough of these characters. I would not be surprised if I find this book in my hands a few more times to be enjoyed again and again.

Personally I would recommend that you read the books in order before getting to this one, but can see where you could read as a stand alone if you really wanted to. This one we follow mainly Silas and Audrey. Fate has decided to give these two a chance at love again but both of them have already been through this and faced a heartbreak once before. Can Audrey let Silas back in, especially when she just now feels like her life is in balance? Things come to a crazier twist when we find out a Silas has a secret that would jeopardize everything. What he doesn’t know is Audrey has her own. Will these two ever get a chance at happiness together? I highly recommend this series, book, and author, can’t go wrong! I will be anxious to see what we will get next from her!

In this one we find Aiden and Vivienne as the main characters, and they are thrust smack dab in the middle of a mess of things. The land they live in Willow Creek is under a dark curse that threatens the magic of the entirety of magic there. Will these two be able to withstand the trials of what is going on around them and find a spark to keep their love alive in the chaos?

I loved how this book took me away to a far away magical place that felt very real and tangible to me after reading the book. I didn’t even know how quickly I had become engrossed in this novel that I ended up reading well into the early hours of the morning to find out how things would turn out in the end. I am curious to see what will come next and if there is more to this series to come!

Deleted by Ruth Mitchell – Review by Lianne Probert

DeletedDeleted by Ruth Mitchell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Deleted, by Ruth Mitchell, is a fantastic, near future novel. It has you wanting to keep reading to find out what happens. It is thought provoking and a new concept novel, both of which can be rare to find.
It looks ahead, but not too far, so things still feel familiar but have some added technology. “Spex” has taken over from phones and iPads, everything is thought controlled. Perfect, right? But, what happens when you can’t trust your own thoughts, you can’t trust that what you remember is accurate, and some memories have been eradicated entirely.
Lucy is a fairly traditional girl, she’s a book loving college student just embarking on life’s adventures. When she embarrasses herself in front of the guy she fancies she’d do just about anything to make him forget, and she finds out that her sister Mollie can actually help her do this.
Lucy’s life takes some unexpected turns, she experiences highs and lows but whatever the memories she knows she wants to keep them, which is why she runs after becoming tangled with the mysterious Nick, a memory hacker.
This is a brilliant book, and suitable for adults and young adults alike, I would definitely recommend it.
