The Devils Shadow WILD BEASTS SERIES by T. BIRMINGHAM

Four Stars

This was a crazy story. I honestly wasn’t expecting it. The author surprised me with the direction this story went. Ginny is crazy but not. She has so many people doubting and finger pointing at her. Kieran had so much patience and love for Ginny. He took his time and didn’t force her. The author did really well developing the characters. The all had their flaws but showed their strengths as well. Liked the relationship dynamics. The bonds and looks without words. I hope the other characters get a story because I like this new direction. The author knew how to draw your attention in and hold it

Lost In Love: Miss Apple Pants by Charlotte Roth

Four Stars

Ok, I was so confused reading the beginning of this story. I couldn’t tell who was who. The name Eleanor should never be used so many times. I did like Ella though. She was so young and grew up fast. She took on responsibilities that even adults don’t want. Being a parent is hard because you have someone’s life in your hands. You never know if your doing the right thing. Thomas was an idiot but a thoughtful one. Age definitely should be a factor in relationships but not when you’re already an adult. The author had a great sense of humor and gave you the perfect but not perfect family. She gave us a picture of what helping the people you love should be like. Overall it was confusing and entertaining to read this story.

This is an anthology that includes the paranormal and romance. I read stories that have adventure, danger, and action. There is plenty of steam that will make the temperature in the room rise. I love reading anthologies as I am introduced to different writing styles and new authors. The stories I read include magic and all sorts of paranormal creatures. There are also stories that are thrilling and had me turning pages to find out what happens next. I enjoyed reading about the characters and there were scenes that will make you swoon. One of the stories that I really enjoyed is Flirty Dancing. I found my emotions going up and down when reading. It had touching moments and also times when I was smiling and laughing. The story has characters that are likable and a storyline that is entertaining. This is an anthology that you don’t want to miss out on.

Hazed (The Hazed Series Book 1)Hazed by Brittany Butler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hazed, book one in the Hazed series is written by Brittany Butler. It is a young adult romance that deal with a few issues which is more suited to a mature audience. I was taken in by this story from the beginning. Taylor’s character intrigued me, but Hayze captivated me. I wanted to solve the mystery that was him. The author was brilliant at spinning his story, keeping me on the knife’s edge. He was an enigma that had me very intrigued.

Taylor and Hayze were a puzzle desperately begging to solved. I loved everything about this story. The good, the bad, and the mystifying. There were ups downs and everything in between. Having not read this author’s work before, I went in not knowing what to expect. A joyful thrill was what it was. It was also emotional and gripping. Hazed is a 5 star story that will stun and dazzle. And leave you gasping for more.

If the Shoe Fits… (The Liberty Lawrence Series Book 3) By Bea Stevens. Just like the rest of the series I really enjoyed this book. I had times where I laughed out loud and times when I was enjoying the mystery in the story. Libby is a character that just keeps giving, I just love her character. While this could be read as a standalone I recommend this series in order just because you’ll love it all. It’s well written and paced nicely with characters you love. A few twists and turns that kept me on my toes. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to anyone.

Luke by Kimberly Lewis, narrarated by Tiffany Williams is book 3 in The McKades of Texas series. The characters were fun and light hearted and I really enjoyed the relationship build up. The story line was fun and sweet and just enough suspense of what was going to happen next kept me on the edge of my seat. I’m very particular about audible narrarators, but I really liked her.

The Devil's Shadow (Wild Beasts Series Book 4)The Devil’s Shadow
By: T. Birmingham
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Devil’s Shadow (Wild Beasts #4) by T. Birmingham was a unique, dark, suspenseful read, that had me flipping the pages.

Not my first read by this author, but it is my first read for this series, and for this authors paranormal books. I didn’t know what to expect, but man oh man, I will tell you that, no one will know what to expect. This book is fresh, original and downright epic. Also from what I have gathered in this book, it reads like a standalone, but I did at times not get past references, so I suggest reading the first three books. Something that I will be definitely doing.

This story is more then multi layered, it’s hard core complex, engaging and has this dark mystery, that overlaps an endearing love story. This is all piled on top of just as complex, well rounded, 3D characters, that make you feel like you’ve known them all your life, but still can’t figure them out. They pull you in, mess with your heart, then just before crushing it, smile like a long lost friend. Like wow, I don’t think I have read such a book, that has cause such a intense reaction before.

To tell the truth I can go on and on, but I’m going to leave you here, with my spoiler free super high recommendation and my stamp of approval. I promise you will not be disappointed in this hidden gem of a book.

Happy Reading

Little Do You Know (Bayou Devils MC 5)Little Do You Know by A.M. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

LITTLE DO YOU KNOW is the 5th book in the Bayou Devils MC Club Series. I’ve enjoyed each installment of this MC series and was looking to finding out more about Henn. As with all of the other books, we also get to revisit previous characters and get to catch up with them now.

There certainly have been some changes in the 7 years that Noah has been gone. That’s all I will say about the storyline.

As with the other books in this series, this is a complex tale that is not all as it seems. The twisty turns along the way keep the story moving at a really good pace. Characters are consistent with their personalities and everyone has a role to play.

At times, I did skim because I had to know what was going to happen and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I really enjoy the way the author writes.

If you asked which of the books in this series my favorite is, I’m not sure I could give you an answer. While I liked parts of each more than I liked parts of others – as a whole it’s a very satisfying read.

I would absolutely recommend this author, this book and this series.

Back in the Ring (The Predator Series Book 4)Back in the Ring by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

BACK IN THE RING is the 4th book in The Predator Series. I have not read the previous stories in the series and had no problem understanding who was who.

This was an easy read that flowed well from beginning to end. Characters are quickly developed and you know the motivation of each as they are introduced. Having never been in the situation that the h is in, I found it frustrating that she was trying to keep a business that was constantly “fundraising” yet never getting ahead. I would hope that a confidant would have advised her well before year 8 to succeed or get out.

The story is well plotted and the kids in the story play an integral role and keep the lightness of the story moving. The daughter’s “tween” attacks had me cringing, but I was able to identify so much. hahaha There are lessons in this book that aren’t obvious or preachy, but show how growing and moving forward doesn’t mean you don’t have a past.

I have note in the beginning of the book the “everyone should have a friend like Mara” but at times I found her to be over the top annoying. I suppose that’s what most quirky best friends are like, right?

Age of Saints (Druid’s Brooch Series) By Christy Nicholas
4 Stars!!!!

I once again found myself in the world of the druids. This is the seventh book in the series but the second book I have read in this series. Even with that in hand I still thoroughly enjoyed it. The author has such a unique world that has been created that one finds themselves plunged straight in. The setting is just as Christianity is coming into the scene and is starting to take over from Paganism.

I really found that I was routing for Conall from the beginning. The author really has a refreshing style that brings the characters to life. I felt as though I really was in Ireland and that I was there with them. The author’s unique way of writing helped bring the magic to life as well as the characters. I could feel the anguish as Conall strives to keep his promise to keep his sister safe and the sacrifices he makes. I was on bated breath to see the decision he had to make. I cannot wait to read more from this author and catch up on the rest of this series.

The Case of Missing Books: A Summer McCloud Paranormal MysteryThe Case of Missing Books: A Summer McCloud Paranormal Mystery by Nikki Broadwell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a story that includes witchcraft, ghosts and hidden tunnels. The female main character is Summer. She has special “powers”. She is able to see ghosts and has visions of the past. Her new husband, Jerry, seems a little skeptical of her abilities. Which causes me to be skeptical of him.

This is not my first book by Broadwell and not the first book in this series. I had been told that it could be read as a stand-alone but I disagree. I felt like I was missing something. The connection to the characters felt forced and that may be due to their back story that I should have read about in the previous book(s). I mean really this IS book 6…With all that into consideration this story was still easy to read. There are a few eccentric characters in this story, which makes for a fun read as well.

I look forward to reading the other books in this series. I recommend you take a chance on this author but start with the first book in this series, Murder in Plain Sight.

Yearning Young by Deidre Huesmann is the second book in the Burning Britely series. This is a series that I would recommend reading in order as it follows the story of the same two characters throughout.
Everything about this book is as raw and emotional as the first. I loved how this time we got to see things from Braeden’s point of view. I loved it when it was Jeff but there is something about Braeden that just really resonated with me.
It was so easy to become so invested in him as a character. He was genuinely likeable. The story was fantastic as well. It was a brilliant continuation from where book 1 left off. The author pulls you straight back in their world and I couldn’t put this book down at all. I would highly recommend this whole series.

I have to say that this second book was really quite the follow up. I like the opportunity to see how Connor dealt with the grief of losing his mom. This book also gave us an oppertunity to see into the lives of a few others in the community. The author really did a fine job of tying in all the characters.

I can’t help but feel like this was a window in a way into my own grief that I still feel. I really can relate to Connor. The flash backs really helped to add to the book. I also was very intrigued to learn more about Dottie and her daughter Alana. I was so glad they were able to look past their differences. I like the cliff hanger as to Connor and Mary Ann. The author has a great way of grabbing the reader from the beginning and keeping you glued to the pages wanting more. I look forward to reading more from this author in future.

Brittney Butler is a new author for me, not knowing what to expect I went in expecting good things due to brilliant synopsis that was written, what I wasn’t expected was how brilliant and utterly captivating this story was.

This book did have some darkness due to some real raw parts of the storyline, but this author wrote them perfectly. They felt real, believable, raw and honest. This book brought a rollercoaster full of emotions for myself as the reader and also the characters Taylor and Hayze. This plot line really draws you in from the start, and I didn’t want to put it down till the end! Even with intense connection Taylor & Hayze have from the beginning you couldn’t help but hope they could sort out whatever could possibly be happening and keeping them from getting their HEA.

This is a brilliant read from start to finish that shouldn’t be missed! I can’t wait to see what else comes to this series, and what else Brittney Butler can do!

I am guilty of judging a book by its cover and I will freely admit I did just that with this book. I thought it was going to be light and breezy and it was, but I was also pleasantly surprised at the wonderfully deep story that unfolded before me. This is a tale of the supernatural unlike any I have read before with characters that swept me away and a story that kept me flipping the pages. I thought the beautiful mix of the fantastical and the reality of everyday struggles made this story seem so real to me. So much so that I could imagine this happening today in some small town. This is the sixth book in the Summer McCloud series, I have not read the others yet, but I plan to rectify that very soon.

Ella will have more and more life lessons. Ella’s character is one that you can become book friends with. I found myself yelling at the computer because I did not agree with her choices.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Desperately Seeking Sixty-Nine is the first installment in The Green Room Chronicles by J.D. Frettier. The Green Room Chronicles are a collection of novellas set in the afterlife. The Green Room is a place where you go until it’s decided if you’re going to heaven or hell.
The title of this novella can be slightly deceiving. Those of us with a dirty mind may assume what this story will be about, whereas in-fact the sixty-nine refers to the year 1969 when the heroine of our story Bonnie first met the love of her life, Peter.
However, if you are of a dirty mind and looking for something a bit racy then this story will fit the bill. While in the Green Room, Bonnie has several flash backs to sexy times with her husband and also ‘visits’ him to keep their passion alive.
While very short, at only 45 pages, there is a lot packed into this novella. I already have books 2 & 3 on my kindle waiting for me to see what J.D. Frettier has in store next for those in the afterlife. Well worth reading!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Burning Britely by Deidre Huesmann is a coming of age Male/Male young adult LGBT romance. A shorter read, but does not take away the impact of the book or subject of the book. I think Huesmann has written a book that adults, teens, and tweens could learn a lot from. From the two main characters questioning their place in this world to bringing to life what many are facing in high school as they grow and find just who they are becoming. I highly recommend this book and give it a BRIGHT FIVE STAR rating.
Jeff is your local high school outcast who is selected to be the tutor to Braeden, the local popular and town athletic star. What both don’t see in the beginning is that through this tutoring a friendship between them develops. As they both grow closer, Jeff sees that there is more beneath of the surface of what Braeden shows everyone. Even worse, Jeff starts to fall for the VERY STRAIGHT star of the town and school.
This raw and real book is part one in a two book series and I for one cannot wait to dive into the next one!

Coming Home by Jane Suen
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This is such a sweet book. Jane Suen can always make me smile or get a quick book fix. This story had about five characters to follow, each with their own story and hardship.

Mary Ann is seeing Ron after Conner leaves and doesn’t speak to her for four months, so she has moved on. Connor is back in town and wants to see Mary Ann desperately and possibly rekindle their relationship, but he doesn’t see that being possible with the way he left things. Ron is interested in Mary Ann and spends a lovely Christmas with her. Dottie was a friend of Connor’s mother and is like family to him, and is estranged from her daughter. Alana is Dottie’s daughter, she wants nothing to do with her mother until this year, when things change and put life in perspective. You will have to read the book to see what comes of everyone.

Great short read. The characters were easy to love or hate and their stories easy to relate to. I really felt for Dottie and Alana’s situation because it all seems so unreal and terrible what they went through. I am on the fence about Mary Ann and Connor or Mary Ann and Ron. I do think it really sucks how Connor left it with Mary Ann, but I can understand his state of mind. If they would just talk it all out things could maybe become more clear and forgiveness could start. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a nice sweet story, with a hint of romance.
