This is an interesting sci-fi story with an included who’s who reference for the reader and it was helpful to keep the characters straight throughout the story. There is good character development and world-building that pulls the reader into the story. This is a laugh-out-loud fantasy novel that’s full of action. It will keep you turning the pages to see what’s next!

Brilliant. That is what this book and this series are. Effing Brilliant. The stories behind these badass women are way too real. These stories are not just about them surviving, they are about these amazing women thriving.
In Broken, the author focuses on Indigo. Indigo is a sexual abuse survivor. (Warning: Discussion and memories of child sex abuse may be a trigger for some.) She got out a few weeks before her 16th birthday and never looked back. Now she is weeks before a megadeal that would solidify her company in the big leagues of the tech world and she is receiving threats. They start small but slowly escalate as the deal is closer to contract signatures.
Gideon, Athena’s brother that tracked her down, has been living in Indigo’s guest house for a while now. They have become BFFs. Gideon is slowly realizing that it is more than just friendship that he feels for Indigo, especially as he gets to know her more. When Indigo asks Gideon to be her personal security for a trip to California, Gideon says yes. Indigo slowly opens up about the threats. Gideon must decide who to trust and if he can truly protect Indigo.
Gideon is sooooooo sweet, kind, understanding, protective, and everything. I think I found my new book boyfriend. Gideon and Indigo were meant to be. Together, they are beautiful and hawt. Yep. Considering everything, the steam level was causing the thermometer to sweat!!! I can’t wait for Gwyn’s story!! Wait…that means the series would be over. I hope not! Anyway, add this to your TBR if you haven’t already!

Heavy Shot is the seventh book in the Nashville Assassins: Next Generation series by Toni Aleo. It is an NA sports romance (hockey), with some forced proximity, a touch of fate, drama, emotion, banter, family, friendship, touching scenes, past trauma, chemistry, and finding love unexpectedly. So, even though this is the seventh book in a series, it can be read as a standalone, which is what I did- coming into a series backwards- again 😊 But having said that I really got the impression that this would have been an even better reading experience if I’d read the previous books in the series before starting on this one, and perhaps even the original Nashville Assassins series too. So, looks like I have a book binge somewhere in the near future… This is Dimitri and Austen’s story- Ms. Aleo made me feel for Austen and the challenges she had faced- she’s such a great character. She and Dimitri were perfect for each other…. Looking forward to more from Ms. Aleo. Happy reading!

I love sports romance and I absolutely loved this story of Dimitri and Austin so much..I could not get enough and devoured every page. The author gave me all that I love….hockey, angst, banter, loyalty, secrets and hot and heavy moments.
All Dimitri Titov wants is to make his dad proud and play for the Assassins Hockey Team. Dimitri had to fight his way back after having detours thrown in his way….trying now to make it…..never expecting to have a glitch in the new housing set up for him during training camp, Dimitri ends up having to share his apartment with Austen McDavid.
Austen McDavid is trying to move on with her life, after being a survivor of the unthinkable and trying to find her own way in life. Austen wants make her grandfather proud and learning the ropes on how to be a successful general manager of a new and upcoming hockey team…so she is shadowing another farm team to get more experience with the Assassins Hockey Team. What Austen did not expect was to have to share her apartment with Dimitri….but in light of everything…they try to make it work….even though Dimitri drives Austen crazy at times…
Friendly banter between Austen and Dimitri that leads into feelings….will Austen and Dimitri get their HEA when so many people are against their relationship believing it is for the greater gain for Dimitri to make the team and protect Austen from her past? Or will Dimitri and Austen stay loyal to each other and prove their love…
This is a fantastic story!! I loved every moment…and definitely am wanting to read more of this series.

When Magic Calls: A Collection Of Modern Fairy Tales By: Caitlin Berve Review by: Susan Ratchford 4 Stars
I really enjoyed reading this collection of Fairy Tales! I thought Berve’s idea of a Fairy Tale museum was amazing! This retelling was beyond relatable and vivid, I felt every word! When Magic Calls really made me feel like it wasn’t a fairy tale at all, it was real! This book was so engaging and just dark enough to be addicting! Berve has such a unique tone and story, I couldn’t help but love it! I can’t wait to read more from Ms. Caitlin Berve. When Magic Calls was truly just phenomenal and unique! I couldn’t help but smile all the way through, as well as feel apprehensive in the best way. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves Fairy Tales and lore! As well as dwell towards the dark side of each! You will not be disappointed!

Another book in this series that has enforced my love of this author. Another round of mysteries for Emma and Jeremy but this time, Dora and Tim are involved. The four are invited by a mystery organization on an all expense paid trip to the exposition in Paris, France introducing new and upcoming technology. They all decide it would be a nice trip and getaway but it doesn’t take long for Emma to feel like something is not right. I love the prologue that instantly pulls you in. From there you will find two mysteries seemingly not connected, intertwine for an exciting fast paced mystery where surprises keep you on your toes. This is part of a series but can easily be read alone as the characters are described in detail and gives you just enough to not be lost.
When I got this book I didn’t even realize that it was book 7, but it totally didn’t matter! You can read this as a stand alone, but honestly I can’t wait to read the others to the set!! This one was so good!! I haven’t read any sport romances before and I am glad that I gave it a shot. I was able to understand what the author was talking about and I ended up really enjoying the book. Dimitri loves hockey. It’s his life long career and his goal has always been to play for the Assassins. So picking up his mom, dad, and sister they all move from Russia to Tennessee! But just because his family came with doesn’t mean he wants to live with them. He stays in the players rooms instead. After a long day of practice, working out, meetings, and seeing old friends he’s ready to crazy. Unfortunately there is a tiny problem. Austen. She’s escaped a horrible abusive past and can’t wait to lead the farm team for the Assassins. She doesn’t want people making decisions for her and she wants to thrive in her new life and career. Only issue is Dimitri. Both Dimitri and Austen are given the same room. A mix up with last minute changes and not enough communication. Thinking Dimitri is an intruder, Austen loses it. Let’s just say that their first meeting leaves some marks. Boy oh boy do you need to read this book! It is funny and sad and you will just get sucked right in! Sports Romance for the win!

4.5 stars Refrain is the fourth heart wrenching book in the Off the Record romance series. It is a story that is full of angst and sexy but broken rockstars. Who doesn’t love a good rock and roll world story. I realised part way through that it was the fourth book so stopped reading this one and went back and read from the first book Off the Record: A Prelude. I am glad I did because you get a rounded picture of our tortured soul MC. It is hot and racy, with sizzling chemistry. With loss, secrets, lies, mistakes, wants, needs, judgement, pain, suffering, lost hope, self-loathing. The characters are flawed warts and all some you will like, and others could be better. Spook’s journey has been a tough one and Madelynne has certainly put him through his paces and us through the wringer. It pulled at my heartstrings. The intensity of the story with traumatic pasts, demons, mental health problems and damaged souls put me on an emotional roller-coaster ride hitting me in all the feels. Tissues are a must. I am not going to say any more because you really have to read this series to not only grasp the intensity, pain and torment of the MC but Madelynne’s fabulous writing and pulling it together so beautifully. I can not wait to read the grand finale Revive.

I loved the first book in the Green Street Girls Series. In that one we heard all about Athena’s story. That’s when it became clear to me that these books were going to be about a group of girls who have overcome so much but have found each other along the way. These stories definitely have an underlying theme of perseverance and getting through tough times. This is Indigo’s story. Indigo has scars from her stepfather, the kind of scars that are going to take a long time to heal, possibly forever. These scars are the kind that make her fearful of men and relationships in general. Gideon has a connection to Athena and has definitely been exposed to women who have been through a lot. Once again, ND Jackson has written an amazing character in Indy. She managed to balance her hurt with her success and with her future. This series is one that I have been devouring, these books are the kind that suck you in and definitely don’t let you go until the very end. I have read them quickly and enjoyed every moment. I definitely recommend reading this series and am waiting anxiously for the rest of the girls to have their moment for their story to be told!

This book is so cute!! I personally thought that it was adorable. The illustrations are so cute and fun. It is a counting book, so it is wonderful for kids 1-5. You can have your kids search and find all the starfish along the way through the book as you read. There are also some great facts about starfish near the end of the book. Also included are some search and count pages where they give you a few things to find at the end. Then after that there is a search the whole book and count page. It will have you going through the book a couple times with your kid(dos), counting a few different things. Personally I would add on a few more counting challenges using the opening and ending pages. They are illustrated with small shells, crabs, and star fish on those four pages, so you can defiantly add to all the counting fun there! I would recommend this book for babies 1st library up to pre-k. Start them reading young and they’ll be counting in no time!

This is the seventh book in the Nashville Assassins: Next Generation series. This is the first book I’ve read on the series, not initially realising it was book seven. The books seem to be able to be read as standalones focusing on different couples. This book focuses on Dimitri and Austen.
I got far too emotionally invested in this story, especially in Austen and everything she’s been through. I absolutely love Dimitri and Austen together; they were good for each other’s character development. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that they’re both lovable characters that you just can’t help rooting for. I especially love Austen, she’s so strong after everything she’s endured, and now learning about hockey.
I’ll certainly be reading the series from the beginning, it’s too good not too and I look forward to getting more insight into other characters and backgrounds.

Gwyn McNamee I am truly truly obsessed with your books and especially this series. I absolutely count the days for the next book. I wish time travelers was available just so I can go read the rest of the series already 🤣 the waiting is excruciating, I need to know what happens. Who did that to her shop? Who and what is Allie hiding? (I thought it was Cassius but nope lol not him. I am really interested to see how that plays out I wasn’t expecting them together but it makes sense) but lowkey I hope its pope they would be cute together. Who is Damon? I feel like he’s important (maybe he’s Falco). And man Roselli is he going to be like Luca or is he going to be like Luca’s dad? I have these and so many more questions 🤣 I need to know the answer to. But as for this book I did love it just as I loved all the other ones ❤ ️.I still think it’s awesome that your characters have real world disorders and issues. 😭😭even if what happened to Jude breaks my heart and was hard to think about because it happens in real life😭😭. I’m happy you paired him and Angie together. They are perfect for each other.
Ps I need a Family tree made or I’m gonna have to make one lol. I need a visual reminder of who was born to who.

I really enjoy the notebook mysteries series! Each book is so intriguing and well written and the mystery’s suck me right in, and next thing I know I’ve finished the book! The characters are always great and you could read this as a stand-alone but I highly suggest checking out the other 5 books! So so good. I can’t wait for the next one!
Retelling but with a twist. Once again, Lois Wickstrom allows your imagination to flourish with this retelling of a classic. We all know Jack and the Beanstalk, but did Jack really steal the goose and golden harp? From the eyes of the giant Earth boys are just lazy and easy to pick. Until Jack shows he’s not as easy to trick as the giant thought. My six-year-old once again loved this retelling of a classic and even my eleven-year-old giggled a time or two when there was a twist. Each of the author’s books give me a newfound love for the classic stories I grew up on and I love getting to share them with my boys in a new way.

In the community of Oaken Acres, these retirees are living their day-to-day lives while dealing with the struggles that come with a retirement community…HOAs that won’t budge on their rules, yapping dogs, nosy neighbors, neighbors moving, and…murder?!?
I don’t want to give anything away because it is a shorter book and you really should just jump right in. The author does give a little index of characters at the beginning that helps when figuring out who holds what position and does what in the community. It tends to go back and forth between characters rather quickly.
While each of the characters has their own story that will remind you of someone you know in real life…there seems to be a bigger picture at play here. It’s a snapshot of any elderly community in the country (maybe a little exaggerated) and that’s what really drew me in. It was a good story that I enjoyed reading.

What an emotional and captivating story this book turned out to be. The main character has been through so much. He is broken and flawed and yet so relatable. My heart cried out for him and I wanted so badly for him to accept he help he clearly needed. I think I connected with him more because his mental health issues were clear and open, not something that was brushed aside and glossed over. This author is pretty new to me and I am enjoying discovering their work. The quality of writing is fantastic and this book is the perfect example. If all her books are like this, I cannot wait to read more of what is on offer.

Wow! This is an emotional ride. I came into the series at this point. I will need to go back and read the previous books. The book starts pretty intense and I was drawn right in. The writing is such that you feel like you are right their in the action. The topic is deep and might be a tw so please read the author’s website. I found the story to be interesting and very intriguing. It is a good read.

This book was one of those that took me by surprised by how good it was. I expected a well written romance but I didn’t expect to connect with the characters so much. Something about them drew me in from the start and I could not help but want to read more about them. Their connection was strong but it was also fun. I enjoyed the overall story. It was such an entertaining book but it had a depth to it I didn’t think it would. This author has created an amazing story with some incredible characters right at its center. Although this book can be read as a standalone, I will definitely be reading them all if they are as good as this one!

This was the first book in the Notebook Mysteries series that I’ve read, and I must say that Kimberly Mullins did not disappoint. I will be going back and reading these books in order and cannot wait to reread this book once I’ve got all of the backstories read. As a standalone novel, this book had me intrigued, I loved how the characters were developed so strongly that I understood them right away, there was no doubt that they were there to solve a mystery and would be successful without a doubt. I love the fact that this not only draws attention to the characters, but you get to experience the beauty of Paris and the excitement around the Eiffel Tower. The setting was portrayed perfectly, I felt like I could reach out and feel the scenery as it went by, I was on the train with all of our characters. I was in doubt of who was a friend and who was a foe, developing a deep mistrust for several of our new characters that are a part of the story. This is a great mystery book, and I am excited to go back and reexperience it all anew as I pour over the previous books in the series. If you love a good mystery book, this series is definitely for you! @Brandy Rymer 08/2023

This book had me on pins and needle during the entire reading. It’s definitely different from the previous MC books I have read. I really don’t understand why there is so much violence among a “friends /family”. I am in shock at the way it ended or rather didn’t. There is a continuation which I would love to read the whole thing. Bella kept my feelings going throughout the book, I felt Lily’s love for Venom and her love for Slash as well. She definitely keeps you on your toes throughout the book. There is a character from another MC group that I thought was brought in, however I realized that its just another character’s name not the same person. I can’t wait to see if I can review the next book.

Jessica has to be pretty strong to have survived her childhood. Now as an adult she is still fighting her past secrets. She has got to get past her bad habits and get her mind on her job. Her help will not come from her drinking and overactive bad habits. Jessica is a strong detective, you get to watch her transformation as she puts on her detective hat and gets to work. This story is filled with twists and turns. The suspense is high octane and I could not put it down. The events are believable as well as scary.So much mystery is involved and you can’t help pulling on the side of Jessica. The author has once again intrigued my interest and I look forward to seeing where this series will go.
The Ring of Eagna is Book Four in The Cross of Ciaran series. This book carries on where the previous book left off so if you have not yet read the first few books in this series, I highly recommend that you do. They introduce to the characters, and the backstory while providing important details. Without reading them first you may feel a bit lost in the storyline. Aodhan and Ciaran are off on another adventure after they find an ancient manuscript written a thousand years ago by a monk in tenth century Ireland. The manuscript describes a mythical treasure that requires three ancient rings to access it. Ciaran and Aodhan already have two rings, so they feel that acquiring the third ring will not be so difficult. However, along the way they discover that they are not the only ones trying to locate the treasure and things become dangerous for the two men. The tension and drama intensifies as Ciaran and Aodhan fight to survive.
This is a fast paced, action packed, book that is chock full of adventure, danger, suspense, mystery, magic, intrigue, and twists and turns that will keep you reading until the very end. The author does a fantastic job of providing detailed historical information that fully immerses the reader into the storyline along with the characters. A fantastic read that with a riveting storyline that is impossible to put down.

When Max wants his T-Ball coach to meet his mom, little does he know what is about to unfold! Turns off Jeff and Kia already know one another, from years ago! Blast from the past situation.
Jeff doesn’t know Kia is about to turn his world upside down. Turns out their one night together resulted in Max! Jeff brings Kia and Max into his pro Baseball playing world. But not without struggles.
This book is very relatable in being pushed to limits when it comes to privacy and love and relationships. I love how the author has portrayed Kia. She’s a hard working, dedicated mom, who has had her fair share of struggles and judgment.
It was such a quick read and I was wishing for more of this story!

I enjoyed reading this dark romance story. A story filled with steam, anger and betrayal. I enjoyed how the author brought the story to life with her attention to details that made me feel part of the story. A story that is well written and hard to put down. A story where the characters pull you into their world and keep you engaged to the end. They have great chemistry and growth throughout the story. I really enjoyed these characters and what they brought to the story. Lily is my favorite character. She is strong, determined and has been through so much. I felt for her for sure. She refused to let dark forces take her down but now there is something else keeping her caught up in this web. This is a must read story you don’t want to miss. A fast paced, engaging story that I highly recommend.

This is the fourth book in this series. This is a series that I highly suggest reading the previous books before this one to help you understand the characters and where they have been. This is a series that I have enjoyed reading from the beginning. It takes you on an adventure that keeps you coming back again and again. Ciaran and Aodhan have something that some thieves want and will do what needs to be to get these things back. But these two are not willing to give up the items without a fight. You don’t want to miss what happens and who will win out. This is a fast paced, adventurous story that is hard to put down. It is engaging and has great growth throughout. An easy to read story that is entertaining. I highly recommend this book.

Love, Only Better: A Novel (Bold Journeys Book 1) by Paulette Stout- 5 out of 5 stars
The struggles Rebecca encounters while seeking orgasmic fulfillment makes this book very relatable to a large group of women. I love how this author brakes down Rebecca’s character exposing her most vulnerable aspects to the readers. The story follows a young woman who is on a mission to achieve the Big O but she has to learn how it all works first. Rebecca deals with her struggles, on top of all the chaos going on around her, with such determination. I love it!!! Absolutely a must read!

This is the 6th book in the Notebook Mysteries series. These books can be read as a standalone however I do recommend reading them in order so you get a complete picture of the characters and how they have grown throughout the series. This is a great historical mystery story. The author does an amazing job of researching the time period and the attention to detail really pays off as the past comes alive and the reader is transported to that time period. This story like the others are full of twists and turns, danger,intrigue, Mysteries, secrets and lies that Emma and her companion have to unravel and solve to be able to solve the mystery. The team are in Paris for a big event and while they are there 2 Mysteries appear. One is a young woman who appears and disappears. What is it that she wants or needs and and can Emma and Jeremy help her? The second mystery happens when Dora is told a secret which could have a devastating effect on the exposition. Should she investigate and try and solve this with the help for Tim or will it be to late?
I was completely captivated by this story and couldn’t put it down until i reached the end. I love the characters growth through this series and how strong, confident and resilient Emma has now become. I can’t wait to read more
