The Men of Holmby Hills: Chase (The Holmby Hills Series Book 1) by Allyson Simonian
4 stars

This was my first read by this author, and I enjoyed it. I wish we could’ve gotten to know the characters a little more as I felt we just got the big parts that made them the way they are or act. Was a good story I was just left wanting more, as they meet, fall and marry so quickly, I felt I missed a big gap of time.
I liked the drama of it all but it was just missing some key things to make it a 5 star for me. Will read more from this author though as it was well written.

Battling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother Romance by T. Christensen – Review by Cassi Rogers

Battling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother RomanceBattling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Battling Beckett by T. Christensen is a forbidden contemporary step brother romance novel. I know I say this in many of my reviews… but I’m going to say it here too: I had a hard time putting this book down. I stayed up late into the morning hours reading, then went right back to reading it as soon as I got home from school drop off. Let me start this review by saying that this book probably will not be for all readers as it has a high school setting, which some may not like the drama and whatnot. I however LOVED this book! This book alternates between different points of views, which I typically follow really well. With that being said there are times, especially towards the end, where the point of view rapidly changes between 1st and 3rd person so it does get slightly confusing. I found that slightly frustrating because it happened in an important scene, but it wasn’t hard to get through and get the true emotion and importance of what was happening.
The character descriptions were spot on. Greer is shy and introverted, she is a starting at a new private school where she doesn’t know anyone and sticks out like a sore thumb. She has a soon to be step brother, Beckett, who could help make things a lot easier for her. Instead of doing that he decides to be an absolute jerk, which was frustrating for me as a reader because I could feel Greer’s struggles. I alternated between wanting to karate chop Beckett and give him a big hug through the majority of the book, which is what this author was aiming for. There is plenty of action, emotion, and friendships made throughout this story… it will suck you right in and keep you there even after you have finished the book. I would definitely recommend adding this book to your reading wish list.

The Fisher Men On the X (Fisher Men Book III) by Rebel Nicks O’Dey – Review by Katie Matthews

Fisher Men On the X (Book III)Fisher Men On the X by Rebel Nicks O’Dey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I am absolutely loving this series and have been really looking forward to reading the third instalment and I wasn’t disappointed at all! Becca really was a wonderful character to read about and I loved getting to know her and I’m not sure she was what I was expecting but she definitely surpassed the things I thought about her at the beginning of the story! I loved Zack and the two of them together were just adorable! I loved the connection that they had and it was clear that even an extended period apart didn’t dampen down the genuine connection that was there between them. There was a lot of emotion in the story and I definitely was there right with the characters at times! This definitely was a great addition to the Fisher Men series and one that I highly recommend!

SAN DIEGO DEAD (Jake Wolfe Series Book 4) by Mark Nolan – Review by Katie Matthews

San Diego Dead (Jake Wolfe #4)San Diego Dead by Mark Nolan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

San Diego Dead was an action packed story from beginning to end and whilst this isn’t my usual genre to read I have to say I have really enjoyed this series and would highly recommend it to others. The action begins straight away and I find that I am completely hooked on what I am reading. The multiple points of view in the story mean that as a reader I feel like I am truly absorbed by the story. I have to say Cody is just adorable! I love that he is included in the story so much – makes it fun to read amongst the drama and action of Jack’s life! Jack is still as great as always – there is just something about him that draws me to him, I think it’s his dedication to his job and his protectiveness of the people he cares about (not forgetting Cody of course!!)
I look forward to more from this author again in the future!

Hitting The High Note (A Four Horsemen Novel Book 3)Hitting The High Note by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Amazing!!!! I have really been enjoying this series and getting to know all of the horsemen so I was looking forward to Uriel’s story and I was absolutely blown away by it and I have to say this is definitely my favourite so far! The author really did an amazing job with this new instalment – I really was hooked from beginning to end. There were some extremely unexpected twists and even now I keep thinking back and how I honestly just did not see some of the things coming at all! The book is very cleverly written! I loved Uriel, I don’t think he was what I was quite expecting to be honest and Bekka was a surprise also! I loved getting to know their characters.
I am so, so excited to see where Ms King is going to take book 4 in the series – I cannot wait! Her writing is so vividly detailed that her books are a real pleasure to read at all times! I 100% recommend this book and the series as a whole!

My Life Series: Prequel to The Brothers of Camelot by Necie Navone – Review by Shannon Fowler

My Life Series: Box Set: Prequel to Brothers of CamelotMy Life Series: Box Set: Prequel to Brothers of Camelot by Necie Navone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow I love this box set! I read each of these books before they were in the box set but having them all together is even better!

My Hidden Life- book one- is about the Canzano Family but more importantly Alessandra or Aless, as she is called. She is a naive, sweet and seemingly sheltered little girl for most of this story. As she grows up, we learn that she is not so sheltered. She sees and knows things. Her father is Capo or captain of the Mafia Family. And is feared by all. He is grooming Aless to take over the Family and all their dealings. This story and her training start out when she is just 6 years old. Capo is easily one character I can hate.

My Tragic Life is easy to read except when Aless become a killing machine to protect her family. I loved watching her grow and learn through-out these stories. Her feelings about the “men” in her life, especially Grayson and Luigi make me laugh, blush and sigh right along with her. She is probably the strongest female character I have ever read about. Even though Aless didn’t show much emotion during a rather difficult situation, as a reader I sure cried like a baby. This book sure leaves a lot of question for the next one! I can’t wait to see where the Brothers of Camelot come into play.

My Free Life – book three- Great conclusion to the build up of Aless’s life as a mafia princess! This book was easy to read even while I was holding my breath as to what could happen next. I really expected more from Capo/Papa, the jerk face, however I am sure we haven’t heard the last from him. I love how Aless’ men follow her, protect her and really have her back when times got tough.

Highly recommend this box set and can’t wait for more from this author!

Battling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother Romance by T. Christensen – Review by Lisa Helmick

Battling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother RomanceBattling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an awesome story! I was easily drawn in because it’s a step-brother romance. But the story and characters captivated me and kept me turning pages. There was so much tension between the two main characters. I could t get enough! I LOVE it! The dislike from Beckett and the peacekeeping from Greer are just a perfect set up!

The secondary characters…I love them!
OMG the talk David just had with Beckett in his office. Puts all step dads to shame. I want David to be my step dad. Not for the money but because he is so sincere and nice and protective of theses two women. Then there is how it’s so easy to see his love for Viviene and by association Greer. I also adore the relationships each parent has with their child. Just makes me go “ooooo” when there are those scenes. Even the FB players were a fun to watch/read.

This is a first time author for me. Her character building was crazy good. While a few things bothered me I wouldn’t let it stop me from picking up this book! It’s a definite page turner and filled with so many wonderful characters. I almost can not wait to re-read!

To Kill a Fae (The Dragon Portal Book 1) by Jamie A. Waters – Review by Lisa Helmick

To Kill a Fae (The Dragon Portal Series, #1)To Kill a Fae by Jamie A. Waters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am SO glad I picked this up. It is attention getting right from Start. The writing in here seems to appeal to something in Me. I love the intrigue, the bits of information given and the relationships between the characters. It all keeps me going and wanting to know who, what, when, where and why.

This is filled with a plethora of wonderful and amazing characters. Pixies, witches, faeries, goblins and demons among others. I rarely say this but I came to enjoy meeting each one of them. Their relationships are so interwoven I couldn’t wait to figure them out. Who controls who? Whom are friends/hates who? Who is stronger? Who is lying and why? I was so happy to get these answered among others throughout the book.

The story is fast paced and is intricately woven to give me some Information. But I am a puzzler so I need to figure out the unasked questions. Therefore I could hardly put this down. Because just when I figured out one thing…another would catch my interest and I’m off again. Everything was explained so well and at the perfect time. Not too much background information at any given moment.

This is a first time author for me! I am impressed with the quality of work done on this book. I think she hit ALL the marks for a story well done. I absolutely LOVED it and highly recommend to all Paranormal lovers! I look forward to more from this author but especially these characters!

Protecting His Heart: a Lawson Family Novel (Lawson Family Series Book 2) by Tracey Cramer-Kelly

5 Stars

So I loved this story..Some parts were a bit hard to read and that’s because they felt so real and dealt with things that I just know really go on in this world and that is just reality.

I must mention that I completely appreciated that this book wasn’t packed full of hot scenes..Don’t get me wrong I like those too but it was a nice break having all the content in this story be an important part of the story.

I love the Lawson family, and the part they played in Ian’s life made me love them even more. His past was rough and the life he made for himself was possible because of them and when his past pops back up on his doorstep the journey through hurt and truth and forgiveness was written beautifully.

Rachel was full of hopes and dreams that just were not within her reach with the circumstances she was living with, this was so sad and made me angry more than once. Thankfully a kind and loving police officer decided to care enough to offer assistance, helping her realize she deserved so much more.

This was an awesome story..Short and quick yet full of content making it a complete and in some places an edge of your seat kind of book. I had all the feels while reading this one and truly can’t wait to read more from this author. It was also nice being able to check back in with Jamie and Kira, it made me want to go back and read their story again.

Awesome…Loved it!!

Ailey of Skye by Wendy Hewlett – Review by Robin Rankin

Ailey of SkyeAiley of Skye by Wendy Hewlett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ailey of Skye by Wendy Hewlett grabbed my heart and twisted relentlessly. My heart exploded with hurt and sadness for Ailey and everything she experienced and survived in her short twenty three years. I suppose I should be happy she was able to make it through but good grief she was dealt a bad hand and it only continued to get worse for a long time.

Ailey is a hero, she took her second chance and did amazing things while only thinking of others, no matter the consequences for her. I absolutely loved this book, but there were parts that were very difficult for me to read and I had to walk away for a bit.

This is my first time reading anything by Ms. Hewlett and I have to say I’m throughly impressed and plan on reading her other books just as soon as possible.

He’s a broken man searching through the past for answers.
She’s his childhood best friend he had no idea he was in love with.

Thomas Capshaw never thought he’d put his dreams of being a sketch artist on the back burner and end up working in New York City far from home. The very last thing he expects is the inheritance of his famous grandfather’s beach cottage on the sandy shores of Florida where he spent his childhood summers.

Emeline Fischer is an aspiring artist trying to make ends meet, working an assortment of odd jobs while painting her dreams on canvas in hopes of landing her own gallery show someday. When she is Thomas’s waitress during her shift at the local beach diner, she immediately recognizes her sensitive childhood friend who promised long ago to protect her from her unstable home life when they were teens.

The two friends take a journey into their past through a box of photos left behind at Cap Cottage and rediscover their mutual passion for art – and each other. Thomas doesn’t plan to fall in love with Emmy – but maybe he’s always been in love with her. Can he forgive himself for his past mistakes and start over in the only place that ever felt like home? Or will his guilt and the demands of his cutthroat, big-city career prevent him from following his heart and reuniting with the only woman he ever truly loved?

Genre – Mystery / Thriller
Page Count – 270 pages

Publishing Company – Power to the Pen
International bestselling and award-winning author Ellen Butler presents book three in the Karina Cardinal mystery series! Fans of Melinda Leigh and J.D. Robb, who love the humor of Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum will adore this gripping mystery adventure.
The rainbows-and-unicorns period of her friends-to-lovers relationship with Mike Finnegan officially over, Karina Cardinal is taking a tactical retreat. No way is she calling him for rescue from one of her infamous “scrapes.”
Too bad trouble, if not her middle name, is a close relative.
Sadira Manon, friend and colleague of Karina’s sister Jillian, has been dropping way too much cash on designer labels for a middle school teacher. Even one who moonlights as a jewelry store clerk. But when she’s accused of theft, the loose diamond falling out of her purse is enough for the police to sing the song of their people—”Miranda Rights.”
Karina, Jilly, and Silverthorne Security join forces to investigate who’s setting Sadira up to take a fall, and why. They dig up a shady tangle of Russian mob ties and gambling debts. By the time Karina realizes they’ve dug too deep—and maybe a little too far outside the law—Jillian’s in trouble, and the only way out of this particular pot of hot water is to make that phone call…and hope Mike doesn’t let it go to voice mail.

Matt’s Swirly World: Children’s Book by Madeleine Matthews – Review by Jenni Bishop

Matt's swirly worldMatt’s swirly world by Madeleine Matthews
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Matt’s Swirly World: Children’s Book by Madeleine Matthews is a book to be shared by parents with their children. It is also a book for parents to help them traverse the pitfalls of tempers and tantrums. The book is beautifully illustrated and Madeleine has a good concept in theory. Unfortunately the story is a little to much for younger kids to take in. I read this to my friends little boy, and he loved the pictures but the story got lost in translation and he lost interest half way through. We all know that all young kids want is something short sharp and shiny. An adult reading it is one thing but I think it needs revising to hit it’s intended audience.

Hitting The High Note (A Four Horsemen Novel Book 3) by C A King – Review by Jenni Bishop

Hitting The High Note (A Four Horsemen Novel Book 3)Hitting The High Note by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hitting The High Note (A Four Horsemen Novel Book 3) by C.A. King is a fantasy paranormal story and another wonderful addition to a series that I have loved, C. A. does not disappoint. This series just captivates and ensnares you and you are always hanging waiting for the next adventure. This is a different take on the Four Horsemen and the legends/stories and C.A. does it brilliantly, you just never know what you are going to get. I love the surprises that crept up on me and that added another dynamic. I love, love, love the characters who once again find themselves embroiled in danger and demons, action and drama, demigods and mates, chuck in a side order of romance and you have the basic food groups for a recipe for success.

Bekka keeps herself locked away from life and socially stunted but when she notices an ad in the paper her curiosity gets the better of her, but it is that and her jealously that finds her in a situation that she may not recover from.

Uriel, a Horsemen who along with his brothers and sister are chasing the means to keep the gates of hell closed. He looks things on the brighter side of life and is a little quirky and fun. He made me laugh. This cowboy is a bit of a drifter and is on the hunt for demons but he finds is the one thing he never knew he was looking for.

I am now wanting and waiting for the next installment – When the Paint Dries.

This story is Violet’s and Demon’s story. Violet is trying her best with the hand she has been dealt, but she is in trouble. She is struggling with finding a good option. I do like Violet has a character.Violet experiences the trauma of a sexual assault so certain parts may be difficult for some readers.
The experiences she has endured has not made her bitter. She is taking care of so many others that she becomes used to being the source of answers. Demon comes in to help her and provides hope. However, he is adjusting to his position, and he is learning to navigate on what it means to lead. Overall, I enjoyed this story.

The only problem is, her step brother has made it clear she is not welcome in either place. Beckett’s not sure he, or his father, should trust the new women in their lives but he can’t deny the protective instinct he has when it comes to Greer. Greer can’t help the magnetism she feels toward Beckett either. Will these two realize their feelings for each other or keep battling through them?

I really enjoyed this book. Greer is timid but she stands up for herself when she can. Beckett may seem like a jerk but he definitely has a sweet side as well. I couldn’t put this book down and highly recommend it!

SAN DIEGO DEAD (Jake Wolfe Series Book 4) by Mark Nolan – Review by Angelina Frazzini

San Diego Dead (Jake Wolfe #4)San Diego Dead by Mark Nolan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

San Diego Dead by Mark Nolan is book four of the Jake Wolfe series. Though it is book four in the series, this book can be read as a standalone.

This story is a fast paced, action packed thriller. You can’t help but be on the edge of your seat wondering how Jake is going to get himself out of the situation he stumbled into. This book is able to pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go until you find out how once again Jake is able to protect his country and it’s citizens. I can’t wait to see if there is more in store for Jake.

Protecting His Heart: a Lawson Family Novel (Lawson Family Series Book 2) by Tracey Cramer-Kelly – Review by Jana Teppih

Protecting His Heart (Lawson Family, #2)Protecting His Heart by Tracey Cramer-Kelly
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Protecting His Heart is the second book in Tracey Cramer-Kelly’s Lawson Family Series. I fell in love with her writing when reading the first book so I was excited to pick up the second book! You can read it as a standalone but if you like the Lawson family as much as I do, I promise, you will pick go and pick up the first book after finishing this one so do yourself a favour and start from the beginning!
Protecting His Heart is the story of Ian McCleary who was taken in as a boy by the Lawson family who showed him what a real family is, and of Rachel who is in a relationship that is slowly destroying her life … The writer has given us a story that touches upon a very sensitive subject matter that is the foundation to Ian and Rachel’s story but she is not blowing it out of the proportion. She gives us the backstory and she handles the characters with such a care and love … She shows how one can find their way out and how much they need the support of the ones who care for them and who meet them!
I loved learning more about the Lawson family and their friends and I am looking forward to the next story in the series!

Elemental Fae Academy: Book Two: A Reverse Harem Paranormal Romance
by Lexi C. Foss and J.R. Thorn

This book was just as awesome as the first book in this series. We do get to know some of the guys a little bit better in this book. This book is full of suspense, twists and turns, witty banter and some moments that make the temperature rise. This book kept me captivated the entire time. I couldn’t get enough of this book, it drew me in from the beginning. There aren’t words to describe how much I loved reading this book! In this story, Claire has matured and is learning how to better control her powers. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series, I can’t say enough great things about this series this far. This is a must read, I highly recommend this book.

Demon's Angel: Satan's Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #2Demon’s Angel: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) #2 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Demon’s Angel is the second installment in author Manda Mellett’s Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter) series. And boy was it good!!!
When Demon sees Violet for the first time in many years he is surprised to see a full grown woman who just so happens to be a single mother and not just his best friend Nathan’s little sister. Not having his friend anymore Demon promises that he will do whatever it takes to protect Violet and become her stand-in big brother. What Demon doesn’t bargain on are the feelings he possess toward this woman who makes him feel things that aren’t very brotherly!
I really enjoyed this book, I liked the connection between Demon and Violet and I really enjoyed their interactions with the club. I enjoyed the storyline and the war between the factions and I cannot wait to see what is coming next!

Dark FeathersDark Feathers by Natalina Reis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book and it just might be my favorite. This author continues to create stories that are full of romance, suspense and fantasy. The characters are connectable and they made the story come alive and feel real. Joan and Phoenix, one is looking for a roommate and the other a dark angel. What they didn’t expect is to fall for each other. When the dark lord comes calling will Phoenix be able to protect her? Strong characters with great chemistry. I highly recommend this must read story.

Pieces Of A Lie by Rowena Holloway – Review by Chantelle Smith

Pieces of a LiePieces of a Lie by Rowena Holloway
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What an amazingly captivating suspenseful thriller that had me immediately hooked from page one right until the very end! It will have you on the edge of your seat in anticipation waiting to see what could happen next. It flows from chapter to chapter and easy to follow and you don’t feel lost within the story. This author writes with incredible descriptions that make you feel you are there within the story. These characters that this author has created are real, they face a-lot through their journey and I loved following it. I think what else made this read even better was the fact that we got the read in multiple POV, I love when books are written like this as it helps me connect with characters, even more, helps me understand them and really gives me a proper insight to the characters thoughts and real feelings.

Overall I’m so glad I got to read this book, you will not be disappointed in reading this, and I can’t wait to see what else this author brings.

Evil Sushi by C.A. King
4 Stars!!!!

I stepped out of my comfort genre for this book. I was quite taken with this book. This is a unique story line. I really like what the author has done with this story line. The characters are quite realistic even given the paranormal spin to the book. I found myself at the edge of my seat awaiting to see what would happen next.

I like how the author created the setting. I also like the chemistry between Rod and Sally. I could really relate to the work situation for the fishermen. I was really on edge as the book went on and things took a negative turn for Rod’s discovery. I really cannot wait to read more from this author.

SAN DIEGO DEAD (Jake Wolfe Series Book 4) by Mark Nolan

5++++++++ Stars

This is my first book by this author and Im kicking myself because of that…This was 100% awesome and falls into my favorite genre of all time and written so perfectly, I can’t believe I haven’t read this author before now!

I will be going back asap and starting this series from the start because I want all the history I feel like I am missing. That does not mean this can be read as a standalone because I had no problem reading it but I want it all. LOL

This started right on page 1 with me being completely invested and I fell in love with both Jake and Cody. This hit me in all the feels but more than anything had me reading so fast I had to keep slowing myself down so I didn’t finish too fast. I must say I completely enjoyed Cody’s POV, that was brilliant and I was not expecting that.

This book has everything and I can not recommend it high enough and I can not wait to read the whole series including this one all over again and I can’t wait for more.

Mr. Nolan has a new fan and I’ll be one clicking everything!

Loved It!!
