I could not put this book down once I started and the story we get here, after the first one was a ride itself, is another “buckle in and hold on” read. Bryer and Nathan are put to the test with Cash coming into the picture. Bryer must fight the pull in either direction and I couldn’t have asked for more than if I was watching a movie. Love this series!

The Hero High Box Set – Figure in Flames by Mina Chara is a must read for anyone who is into Superheroes. These novels feature an upcoming superhero, Friday Fitzsimmoms. It follows her first months at Hero High which was supposed to be a new beginning for Friday, but quickly it turns into a fight for the school as she and her classmates battle a new super villain. The story involves many twists and turns for Friday as she tries to not only survive high school but begins her journey as a superhero. Mina Chara has authored a really fun adventure and she is definitely someone to follow for future installments in Hero High and Friday’s adventures or perhaps something new.

5-Stars
Satan’s Devils MC Boxset Books 1-5 (Satans Devils MC Series) by Manda Mellett is an excellent collection of books. This box set is the best way to start this series. I love the author’s creativity and how it shines through her characters. They are all unique and realistic. They are funny, aggravating, mouthwatering, and romantic. These books are full of excellent stories and are entertaining. I highly recommend this box set and this author!

Love the Way You Dance by Allison M. Boot is a sweet, young adult read. This book tells the story of Kara, who was adopted by the King and Queen of Starrycrest. Kara is a brave and sweet young lady who has lived a life of challenges. She is wanting to make some changes in the Kingdom and set up a program for orphans who need to find their forever home. Unfortunately, the King and Queen are not completely behind Kara’s new plan. I really enjoyed this story about courage, acceptance, and loving yourself despite any flaws. I think this is a sweet story to be enjoyed by many. Also, I think younger readers can learn a lot and will enjoy reading Kara’s story. This is a nice modern fairy tale story.

“Brothers protecting their own” I absolutely loved this boxed set of Manda Mellett’s ‘Satan’s Devils’ MC series, it includes books 1-5, as the blurb says, “Start your exciting ride with the first five books of the Satan’s Devils MC now available in a box set”. Although each book is a standalone story it is better to read the series in order as the characters crossover and past events are mentioned in future books. I loved having the box set as I could just ‘binge read’ them one after the other and having fallen in love with the characters I was desperate to know what was going to happen next. The series follows the members of the ‘Satan’s Devils’ MC which includes “hot alpha males who certainly aren’t shy in the bedroom”, and their strong feisty women, “who they want to ride with through life”. Book one, Turning Wheels, introduces the club and its members seen through the eyes of a disabled English woman, Sophie who is under their protection. Sophie is still coming to terms with being in a wheelchair and is overwhelmed at suddenly being in the middle of an American MC. We meet Wraith, the VP, who shows Sophie that her disability doesn’t define her. Wraith try’s to fight his attraction but when he needs to protect her from enemies he can not deny their chemistry. Book two, Drummer’s Beat, introduces MC President Drummer who has yet to find a women strong enough to be his ‘Old Lady’ until he meets Sam a fellow biker broken down at the side of the road. To make things complicated she claims to be another member, Vipers daughter. This storyline is a bit darker as it involves a sex trafficking ring and Drummer must find Sam before she’s lost to him forever. In book three, Slick Running, Slick had claimed Ella but then she ran away so when she returns needing help Slick is wary. The Satan’s Devils find themselves having to break up a child grooming ring and rescue Ella’s young sister. In,Targeting Dart, confirmed bachelor Dart fights his attraction to curvy black girl Alex. However all he can offer her is friendship as she fights for the life of her sick child. Dart has to step up when her violent ex reappears in her life and then they can’t fight their feelings for one another. Book five is, Heart Broken and following the death of his wife Heart is depressed and goes on a road trip he does not intend on returning from. The voice of a cop on the end of his phone keeps him going though and she alone seems to understand the emotions he is feeling but he does not think that a cop and an outlaw biker can have a relationship, can they? This series of books is full of amazing characters from officers, prospects and patched members of the Satan’s Devils and their Old Ladies to the club sweet butts. All the characters are well developed and have their own backstories which adds to the overall storylines. The books do deal with some dark themes, from disability, sex trafficking, grooming of young girls, racism, and overcoming the grief of losing a partner but this just adds depth to the books making this series so much more than, just another MC series. Each story is full of drama, action, suspense and of course romance and plenty of steamy scenes as the chemistry between the various couples sizzle off the page. Each book also takes you on an emotional rollercoaster but you always feel as though you are among friends as you get to know the characters so well thanks to the authors wonderful descriptions of them. I felt completely immersed in the Satan’s Devils world and found Mellett to be a wonderful writer and storyteller. I look forward to future books in this series and others by the author.

This is book two of the forgotten Trilogy and it was absolutely brilliant, i would highly recommend you read book one first to understand what is happening. This novel is full of emotion which keeps you hooked and turning the pages eager to find out what will happen next. This story keeps you on the edge of your seat with the bumps in the road you just want to know how or if they will overcome them, love is never easy but it’s worth the fight.

Eat Me was a short and sexy read and one that I really enjoyed! I actually think I’m in love with Mayim! His sexiness just oozed off the pages from the beginning of the story until the end. I think the blurb for the story was really good actually because I wasn’t expecting some of what happened in the story and it made it far more exciting to read! The authors writing was really good, the erotic nature of the story came through well but wasn’t over the top like I have red in other books, I really felt the connection between the characters. Summer was a great character and I enjoyed reading about her journey! I 100% recommend this book and I am definitely going to be looking out for more from Amber Dark in the future!!

Madeline is back with a side kick. Her and Mike have set up a Private Investigating business but its slow to pick up business at the moment so she decides to still take on her event planning role full time while it develops it clientele.
While organising the biggest party of the year she stumbles across there first case. The clients mother has had some missing jewellery stolen and has hired Madeline and Mike to investigate the crime but when there is a famous film director and people around him are suspects the plot thickens.
As they are investigating, Madeline discovers that there is a man from her past which may be trying to sabotage the whole thing, but while trying to organise the biggest party in Santa Barbara, trying to find out who stole the jewellery and thinking will there business survive who knows.
This book was a great second instalment in this series and the character interactions where just as good as the first book. The story flowed and was a page turner, the plot twists and turns and you feel like you are in the story helping them through to solve the mystery they behold.
I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and see the relationship grow between Mike and Madeline in the future.

Forgotten Promise is the 2nd thrilling instalment in the Forgotten Series by Virginia Wine. Virginia Wine is an author I came to love when reading the Surviving Series and I’m loving this new series just as much as I enjoyed the Surviving Series. In this second book Nathan and Bryer are together and have declared their love for each other. Life should be perfect the happy couple but Bryer’s ex-fiance Cash is determined to do everything to break up the happy couple and win Bryer back for himself. When Cash resorts to his usual underhand tactics to cause problems for the couple and then manipulates Bryer to go to his home with him, will Bryer and Nathan’s relationship survive? I found this book moved at a much faster pace than the first book and also had a more sinister, suspenseful feel to it which I thoroughly enjoyed. I grew to love the characters of Nathan and Bryer even more as their journey continued and I can’t wait to read the next instalment in this series – Forgotten Chance.

The Hansel and Gretel Reimagined Anthology was great! I only read two stories out of the Anthology however. The two I read we’re chilling, shocking, and left me wanting more. In Hazel and Gretchen by Erin Lee, the author broke my heart with the abuse the children suffered. It was a very sad, chilling story. I wasn’t particularly fond of the ending, but it was a very chilling story. In Shadows That Move by Lorah Jaiyn, I was completely enraptured in the story. It was very chilling, very shocking, it was like reading my favorite horror movie. I honestly want Jaiyn to write a sequel to this short story, because I want to find out what happens next so bad! I can’t wait to eventually read the other stories in this set. The two I read were incredible!
Holy Smokes! This is another thrilling ride told perfectly by India Kells! There is friendship and camaraderie. Action, Suspense and some hot sexy scenes. I loved it all! I couldn’t put this down always wondering how it would end and would they ever really know each other. Orla is exactly what she portrays herself as. A hot shot journalist. The way she pieces things together…she is a great puzzler. She is strong mentally and isn’t afraid to always take that next step toward her success. Crazy steps at times but she still takes them.
I love this introduction to the Noctem group. It’s a break away from Purgatory, if you have read previous books by this author. This is a wonderful crew. Bad and yet good all at the same time. There is great interaction between them all. I almost like the hacker the best so far but the thief is no slouch. He is so stoic but yet seems to have a charming side.
This is an action filled start to a new series. I can’t wait to learn more about this crew and the men and women who will take them down a notch. I look forward to the next!

Audrey and Silas – yes please! Regent does such a fantastic job of weaving a story that immediately pulls you in and connect the characters, whether you want to or not. I was immediately invested in this storyline, guessing what may have happened, what the plot twist might be. And whether or not I guessed correctly I still couldn’t wait to read the next page. Loved every word and hope there is more coming in this series!!

Satan’s Devils MC Boxset Books 1-5 (Satan’s Devils MC Series) by Manda Mellett
5 +++++++ Stars but deserves so many more!
Manda Mellett is a master storyteller and I can confidently say that yes I’ve read a lot of MC books, and have loved many, but these are absolutely my favorites.
Turning Wheels – Sophie has been through so much just trying to help a friend escape an abusive relationship, and it’s not even over for her yet. Her friend managed to escape so the abuser is coming after Sophie for information and leverage. She is whisked away by an unlikely protector to the US and this is where we meet the Satan’s Devils MC. They have agreed to protect Sophie, which comes with many more issues she has to face. Next to Drummer, Wraith, and Soph I think Peg was my favorite character in this whole book. I had some favorite scenes as well, the phone scene was AWESOME and I almost felt like I was there watching these guys fall out of their chairs. Now I must jump into Drummers book, the book I have probably looked forward to the most.
Drummer’s Beat – This one was full of everything I love about Manda’s books but had that little touch of something extra. I can feel how strong this MC is growing. The strength, the brotherhood, the loyalty, and the family. It’s all because of Drum’s leadership and it blows me away. Drummer and Sam’s book again, will always be a favorite! Dear Lord, if you have not opened the world of the Satan’s Devils, you must do so, I literally can’t imagine not having these stories in my life.
Slick Running – This one came right out of the shoot tearing at my emotions, and I’m not sure those emotions ever evened out while reading the rest. This one kinda sorta has two storylines, one started back in book #1 and I love the way that was all handled..took me a second and I was like whoa hold on this sounds familiar then I actually went back and paid attention to the times given to me at the beginning of the chapters. Slick has absolutely positively won every ounce of respect I can muster up, I felt so bad for him because he didn’t know the whole story about Ella and what she went through and acted rashly, as well as how Ella was dealing with it all. There are alot of moving parts to this whole book, and in some ways it’s because I know what is to come down the road. This is now another of my favorites from all of these series and can not wait to jump into the next story which I will be doing as soon as i’m done typing this review.
Targeting Dart – Wow this book had a lot!!..So much going on through the whole story that there’s no way I could sum it all up in this one review, Just know that these first 5 books of this series should absolutely be read in order..There are ongoing stories and issues being dealt with and Im afraid picking any of them up out of order will not give you what you need to fully appreciate everything. Oh my goodness, Dart and Alex and this club, whew what a ride this was. Danger, heartbreak, fear, bylaw changes, betrayal, love, and a few scenes that totally blew me away and not in the best way. Then bring in Heart’s continued story and I’m literally emotionally wrecked! This author has no fear of tackling some tough scenes.Scenes that you just don’t normally have pop up in books, and if they do there are usually saviors rushing in, but she plays these out and it floors me. She has like a million books in all of the Satan’s Devils spread out through a few different chapters and cities and I just can’t figure out how she can have this many books and each one is so very different!
Heart Broken – I knew going in that this would be a tough book to read and oh how right I was. I went from loving Heart, to hating Heart, to wanting to crawl through my kindle and smack Heart, then I wanted to Hug Heart, I was an emotional wreck while reading this. His story spans 3 books, well actually 4 if you count the novella that I’m buying today. Although there was again a whole lot going on in this story, this author found a way to tie up so many things and also somehow tie them all together even if just slightly.
I can’t find the right word to sum up this Author’s talent and give her the justice she deserves but if I had to pick one or two they would be Brilliant Perfection!
Manda Mellett is a master storyteller and I can confidently say that yes I’ve read a lot of MC books, and have loved many, but these are absolutely my favorites.

I enjoyed this book. It is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from them. This is a suspenseful, action, mystery and even some drama story that kept me turning pages. It is a well developed story that is engaging and made me feel as if I was right there in the story. I had no issues connecting with the characters. They made the story engaging and fast paced. Louvette and her family have been continuously moving because of her behavior. When a lawyer shows up on their doorstep and offers them an opportunity that they can’t pass up, will they take it? This is an easy to read story and I highly recommend it.

Not So Far ( Love Grows Series Book 3) by Renee Regent. This was the first book I have read in this series and by this author. I didn’t feel like I missed anything yet not reading the previous books in this series, but I will be going back and reading them!! This book definitely pulled me in from the beginning and I could not put this down until I was done. My heart broke for both Silas and Audrey. I absolutely loved how they were both thinking about each other at pretty much the same time. They both went through emotional journeys to get were they both needed to be and belonged. The chemistry and love that they had for each other was amazing!!! I can not wait to see what is in store for us next!!!

Winter’s Wolf (The Cursed Series Book 1) By Lou Grimes 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Winter’s Wolf (The Cursed Series Book 1) by Lou Grimes. It is a story that pulled me in, and I found myself not wanting to put it down until the final page. It is a YA/shifter story that includes mystery, danger, and discovery. I love the character of Louvette Blackwood She is a young girl who finds out her grandfather was murdered while searching for her father. She also finds that she has the chance at a fresh start in Montana thanks to her grandfather’s will. What does the future hold for Louvette? Read this book to find out. I grew to care about what happened to Louvette with each chapter that I read. I wanted her to find her place in the world. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters that interact with Louvette. Many of them are helpful and friendly to her. Then some have their own selfish agenda. This is a story that will hook you in from the very beginning. The book had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. I highly recommend reading it.

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology filled with five-star stories. This is a great collection as each author puts their own twist on a classic story, there are so many different ways this bunch have gone, from scary, to fantasy, to romance and its seems a little of everything along the way. I will be honest and admit I picked this up as it had Autumn Sand in it, not realising they are just the co-ordinator, but honestly I didn’t mind as the others pulled me into their story’s and I enjoyed getting some new authors to lightly stalk. Especially Cee Cee Elaine her story had me looking outside to see if we were going to be heading to bunkers as it was scarily real at the present lock down time. Lorah Jaiyn was another one that made me really think about how we see people and react to things, it was a powerful story on its own. Debra Parmley story was another winner in my eyes, but to be honest there wasn’t a story I didn’t enjoy.
A High Price to Pay by Cynthia Hamilton a feisty four-star read. This is number two in the Madeline Dawkins series and I would say that it is best to read them in order, I did and I enjoyed them that way as I didn’t feel lost at all reading the second story. This is a great whodunnit and it kept me guessing, I did guess right at first but then thought I didn’t and then just got so wrapped up in the story that I didn’t truly care. This has so many strings to the story, but the author does a great job of keeping it all together and plaiting them together to make a story that is easy to follow and really fun to read. If you like a mystery, then this is one for you. I only gave it four as there were a couple of bits that annoyed me but overall, it was very good.

Louvette Blackwood never even knew her own father’s name until a lawyer shows up on her doorstep to execute her grandfather’s will. She soon finds out that her grandfather was murdered while searching for her father. At first, they are hesitant to sign the will, but quickly realize that a fresh start in Montana is what they need after she was kicked out of yet another school for fighting. A life changing year packed full of uncovering the truth, new friends, and new enemies is about to start!
I’m a Texas born author who is currently working on the second book in The Cursed series. I enjoy anything that involves creating something like art, writing, and pyrography. I worked on the first book for 3 years which is why it is set in the Young Adult genre, plus I can’t seem to grow up.

I love a twist on a classic and this anthology spared no possible twist. I wasn’t prepared for the extensive differences between stories but would be hard pressed to pick a favorite from the bunch. Unique and fabulously detailed, each page brought something new. A fantastic anthology for all fantasy lovers to pick up – especially if you are looking for something different.
And the River Runs Deep: The Cold Case Murder Mystery of Leah Marcus is a cleverly crafted and intriguing novel by A.J Ullman. This is my first read from Mr. Ullman- and after venturing into his ‘world’, I am happy to say that it won’t be the last. I was drawn to the book by the title, as I am a true crime junkie. I snatched up a copy and dove right in. I soon discovered that this isn’t a ‘true crime’ story, but in fact a fictional account that’s written so incredibly well, with all the ‘realism’, investigative elements, police procedural, and forensic details- that there were times I forgot this wasn’t ‘real’. Mr. Ullman’s attention to detail and meticulousness gave this story so much authenticity, intrigue, suspense, mystery, and drama. I was so caught up in the details and events, that I lost all sense of time and place- riveted in the story for an afternoon. And that is really all you could ask for from an author, and story. So, if you love true crime, intriguing storylines, unputdownable stories, and shocking twists- then this is definitely the book for you! I am happily looking forward to exploring more of Mr. Ullman’s work! Happy Reading!

I am just going to come out and say, I loved this novella. Sunshine Kisses by Elaine Marie is most definitely a 5 star read for me. It wasn’t quite what I anticipated at the start (whatever that even means) but I was invested by page two. It was a quick read and truly enjoyable from start to finish. This was my absolute first read by this author and I am ready to download everything by her. I loved the premise of the book when I read the synopsis and truly feel like the writing and storyline delivered. I enjoyed the characters, the flow of the story and really, like I mentioned, I loved it. Period.

I loved this story! Crystal and Spencer were great to read about. This author just knows how to grab you and take you through the story like you’re living it. This can be read as a standalone and you’ll want to have time to read this as you won’t be able to put it down once you start. Cannot wait for more from this author, going on my to watch list.

Wow! What a very well written suspense! And even though its the softer version, that didn’t take away from the storyline at all!!! Such large personality from all the characters—its hard to find flaw in the writing! Such an exciting series with a phenomenal set of characters that will keep you on the edge if your seats!!

Sunshine Kisses is a fast-read romance novella. While this book is part of series, it can stand-alone with the same gripping emotional ties you would expect from any romance story. Once you start, it is difficult to put down and you will find yourself saying “Just one more chapter” over and over again. I found some transitions to seem rushed, but I also found myself reading faster and thinking about how fast life really is, especially for someone with a condition such as the main character’s, which may have been the authors intent.
This story follows a short time between two people, Crystal and Spencer, who have known each other for years, but never considered the option of more… until now. However, given Crystal’s current medical situation, she would prefer to keep her distance, despite what her losses may be in the field of love. The main question you will keep asking yourself is can love overcome fear? Read this story to find out more!

What an epic story with an epic love! Sometimes steamy romance novels feel superficial. But Wine continues to weave a great story that is rich with depth and color. I love these characters and simply couldn’t put this book down to find out exactly what would happen. I don’t want to give it away but suffice it to say if you like romance books at all, steam or no, you need to pick this up. It’s got it all!

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara is the first three books in this Young Adult fantasy series.
Denial (Hero High Book 1) is fast paced and a lot happens as we follow along with the students, future heroes and past heroes who also happen to be a television reality show as well. Friday sets out to be a hero but lives in the background, but she unwittingly finds herself in the thick of things as the story unravels.
Anger (Hero High Book w) picks up where the first book left off. Where a lot happens as the students learn more about themselves and what they can do and adjust to life as a hero and being in a television reality show. Friday seems to always find herself in situations not of her making and getting herself out of them, but she is also drawn to finding out just what is going on and who is involved.
Bargaining (Hero High Book 3) carries on from the first two where heroes are the norm and their lives are broadcast on television for all to see. In this book everything comes to head and we see who is who and which side they are on. You need to read these books in order as they flow on from each other and you will miss out on the story and how we get to each book. It is action packed and explosive and completely compelling. Just what makes a true hero?

Satan’s Devils MC Boxset 1 Books 1-5: Brothers protecting their own by Manda Mellett is where it all started for the MC. I didn’t find Manda until I reviewed the sixth book in the series, but it cemented my obsession. I am glad that I went straight back to the beginning and fell in love and the rest as they say is history.
Book 1 – Turning the Wheel (Satan’s Devils MC) – Sophie and Wraith’s story Book 2 – Drummer’s Beat (Satan’s Devils MC) – Sam and Drummer’s story Book 3 – Slick Running (Satan’s Devils MC) – Ella and Slick’s story Book 4 – Targeting Dart (Satan’s Devils MC) – Dart and Alex’s story Book 5 – Heart Broken (Satan’s Devils MC) – Heart’s story
Each book is about a member of the MC and enemies and the women who have come into their lives. Each one is an alpha male and sexy and each woman has been broken but come out strong. With each woman comes major problems to the club but they always band together as brothers and make sure no one will hurt them again. Lives will be lost, hearts broken, violence is a given, danger is bound, and love is powerful. There are many laughs and lots of tears along each journey.
It is no surprise when I say that I absolutely love this series and the offshoot series. I am addicted.

Satan’s Devils MC Boxset 1 Books 1-5: Brothers protecting their own is a wonderfully written MC series by Manda Mellett. Like other MC books, these stories are full of the sexy, hot, dominant men that deal with day to day club tasks. What I really like about this series is that each story deals with deeper issues, some that wouldn’t expect alpha males to deal with. Another great thing about this series is that each story can be read on their own but they are the best when reading one after the other.
My favorite story out of box set is Drummer’s Beat. Drummer is the president of the Satan’s Devils MC. He hasn’t been able to find an old lady…until Sam. Same broke down on the side of the road and Drummer helped her. Sam claims she is the daughter of Viper, but they all know he can’t have kids so Drummer is skeptical. When Sam is taken by sex trafficking ring, Drummer is determined to find her and claim her before it’s too late. One of the reasons I enjoyed this book the most is because of how the author deals with such a real life issue, sex trafficking. The chemistry between Drummer and Sam is another reason why I loved this story.
