My rating: <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5733909715″>4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
This is the first book of the trilogy but not the first in the series. I did not, and don’t think it is necessary to read the book from Alex’s perspective to understand this one but it might fill in some blanks early on. The author starts this off with a trigger warning and I highly suggest you pay attention to that! <br /><br />That being said, this dark romance has everything you need in a book— romance, betrayal, action, and angst. At 18, Lily is assaulted in the worst way imaginable- she is left with scars and the weight of the trauma but at least she survived. Years later, her tormentor is released from prison and the Shamrocks must find a way to protect her. This brings in the love-triangle between her fiancé, Zeke, and another member in the Shamrocks (don’t want to spoil it!). The characters are complex, and if you’re like me, some may even infuriate you. Looking forward to see how the story unfolds in the next book.

Oscar and Emmy Gain a Friend: A Story About Trap-Neuter-ReturnOscar and Emmy Gain a Friend: A Story About Trap-Neuter-Return by Terri Sabol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

Oscar and Emmy Gain a Friend is an educational and fun read. It raises awareness to the young and old about cats that have no home.

I am a rescue girl for all my animals. Well, that is except my (already fixed) stray cat affectionately named Kitty Kat, that adopted us about a year ago but continues to live outside. I had never heard of TNR so was interested to learn more about it. I also learned that it is banned here in Australia.

Terri has done a good job of weaving together a controversial topic and child’s story to make it a topic that can be fun and easily shared. Through bright and colourful pictures this story teaches young minds the pitfalls of abandoned animals and the outcome of neglecting them.

I see there are many more adventures for Oscar and Emmy to read to my grandbabies and my new great granddaughter.

The Anchor Knot:securing the knot of truth (Knot, #6The Anchor Knot:securing the knot of truth (Knot, #6 by DonnaLee Overly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a well written and interesting book that places the focus on the main character, Gabby. This is the 6th book in the series and the first I have read by this author. I didn’t realise initially that this was not the first book. I would say it csn be read as a standalone but I definitely think you would benefit from reading them all, something I am going to go back and do!
I really enjoyed Gabby’s character. I loved that the focus was on her. It strengthened the whole story overall. I enjoyed watching her work to overcome the challenges she faced. This is a thoroughly enjoyable book and I am looking forward to discovering the rest of the series.

Oscar and Emmy Gain a Friend: A Story About Trap-Neuter-ReturnOscar and Emmy Gain a Friend: A Story About Trap-Neuter-Return by Terri Sabol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oscar and Emmy Gain a Friend is a wonderful children’s book that discusses the TNR program. It is a great resource for kids (and adults) to learn about how to deal with feral cats and the stray population. The author has done a superb job of writing the story in a way that is easy to understand while still being packed full of information. The illustrations are bright, fun, and really make the story come to life. I loved how the author has included information at the end of this book on the Trap-Neuter-Return Program. It is easy to see that the author is passionate about the subject matter and wants to pass her knowledge onto others. A great book for children to learn compassion, empathy, and understanding towards the stray cat population. This would be a wonderful, must-have, addition to any home and school library. I highly recommend this book!

Heavy Shot (Nashville Assassins: Next Generation #7)Heavy Shot by Toni Aleo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Heavy Shot is the seventh book in the Nashville Assassins series by Toni Aleo. I had actually never heard of this series before, and this is the first book I have read by this author. I really enjoyed this story, I read it in one sitting and found it thoroughly entertaining. The story follows Austen, a young woman with a tragic past who is currently trying to learn all she can about hockey to take over her grandfather’s new business, and Dimitri, the Russian stallion. When the two unexpectedly get pushed into the others personal space they both help each other see that there is more to life than what they have had so far. I loved these characters; they are so genuine. I started getting the rage at Austens grandfather though. I love it when a book makes me emotional. I would recommend this book to romance lovers. The only thing I would ask/change is for there to be a breakdown somewhere of who everyone is related to and how. As a newcomer to the series there was a lot of names all at once and it took a bit of time to work out how each person fitted in, however, in saying that I will be going back to the start to read this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was full of sparks all over. We have Shelli, grudge holder to Dimitri. Shelly and Posey, sisters who argue. Dimitri and Austen. Oh, did I love Dimitri and Austen story. These two showed us what true love is. It all came down to what is more important to you and what are you willing to give up. First, this is my first venture into the Nashville Assasins and I need more!! This team story is hot and exciting. I loved the drama. Second, I couldn’t put down the story of these two. I was pulled in by their interactions. I loved the back stories with all the OG families, such as Peepaw, and Dimitri’s family and the Adlers. The dual POV makes reading it so much more like you are there listening to the interaction. This book was a fantastic story. A quick read that will make you smile.

The Silent Woodsman (The Olympic Peninsula series Book 1) Audiobook by Cat Treadgold – Review by Shelly Kittell

4/5 stars

Can love work through the silence?

I found this a romantic and charming story. The flirting between these two was fun and quite witty. When one can’t talk and the communication must be done by writing it makes it so much fun. The miscommunication can be fun and quite enticing. Blushing abounds because errors can be made. These two are quite fun characters. I enjoyed their story. It kind of reminded me of a Pretty Woman vibe. I couldn’t stop the story. Ali had her hands full trying to figure out what had happened to her brother and that mystery, then she comes upon Joe in the woods. He’s dealing with surgery that can mess up his career. His biggest obstacle sis having to keep quiet due to surgery on his vocal cords. I enjoyed the story very much.Hearing it in audio did a lot to add to it. The narration was a little dry but I still enjoyed it as it brought the story to life. With Ali’s brother’s mystery, I feel hearing it in audio, that helps add more to the story. It’s quite enjoyable.

Taz (Devil’s Handmaidens MC: Timber-Ghost, Montana Chapter Book 3) by D.M. Earl – Review by Kerry Carr

Taz: (Devil's Handmaidens MC: Timber-Ghost, Montana Chapter)Taz: by D.M. Earl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Devil’s Handmaidens all female MC: Timber Ghost Montana. I have loved these books from the start and i do recommend reading them in order so that you get to read about and learn about all the characters that make up this all women MC Club.
D M Earls writing is amazing. You are immediately grabbed and dragged into these women’s lives from the beginning. Each one of them has a story to tell, mostly a dark and upsetting story which has lead them to the Devil’s Handmaidens MC. And Taz is no exception. One thing I love is these women are fiercely protective of their own and Will stop at nothing to make sure every member is safe and protected.
This is Taz’s story. Taz was found by MC member Shadow when she was fleeing her abusive partner. Along with her autistic son she suffered physical, mental and sexual abuse from her ex who was part of a white supremises group. Fearing for her sons safety more than her own she flees hoping to never see him again.
After becoming part of the MC their lives change Taz deals with the book keeping and all the sisters in the MC take her son under their wings. Life seems to be going smoothly until the day her ex finds them.
Now her ex is back and won’t stop until he gets what he wants which is Taz.
Now Taz had the backing and support of the Handmaidens can she finally be rid of him for good? Or will it take more than her MC and their friends to protect her from her abusive ex and the white supremacist group who are after them?
This story is full of danger, worry, secrets, lies and corruption. It will keep you gripped from start to end as you find out if the Devil’s MC and their friends can stand up to this group of people hell bent on causing damage and destruction

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I was excited to pick up the next book in this series. I highly suggest reading the previous book in this series to help your enhancement of the characters and the author’s writing style. I found this book to be well written and hard to put down. The characters pull you into the story from the beginning. They are great strong, steamy characters that are among some of my favorites. They have great chemistry and growth throughout the story adding to the entertainment value of the story. This is a fast paced, engaging story where growing up on the streets, life teaches you to trust no one. A life where you find yourself trusting one person but you are not allowed to have her. No matter what you can’t have her but there is a determination and attraction that can’t be ignored. This is a story you don’t want to miss. It is full of romance, steam and just hard to put down. I really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

The Secret Humankind: An Urban Fantasy Thriller (The Discoveries of Julia Xero Book 1)The Secret Humankind: An Urban Fantasy Thriller by Gloria Oliver
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Julia gets what seems like the idea job to get her away from the barely making ends meet and sleezy boss and crappy coworkers. Only to find out it might have been little too good to be true. While working with a detective to find a serial killer the killer hints at connections they have making you wonder if there is more to her than simple human as well. This story ends with you wondering how she will escape the darker sides of the Secret Humankind, who can be trusted and who can’t and will the next books give us any of these answers or only leave us with more questions?

I really enjoyed this story. The characters we meet in this story are very fascinating as well as the building of the world in which they live. Though we don’t learn a whole lot in the this first book about the Secret Human kind what we do learn about them and Julia has me interested to read the following books.

I loved this story so much I wish there was more. I was in a serious book coma when this one ended. The way Claire steps up to take care of her little brother is so amazing and to see the lengths she is willing to go. I love the strength and understand she finds in her friends. Nyman does in incredible job as showing that sometimes family can hurt the most when the claim to have the best of intentions and friends can be closer than blood. This girl has her priorities straight. I think this is an great story for adults but would also encourage young adults to read it as well. And the shocker at the end!! Wow. Great work, please write more like this.

This story follows Lizza and her family on their “adventurous move.” Lizza’s dad has a taxidermy business and ultimately decides to move the family into a cave. A cave where the family is on display for tourists. All Lizza wants to do is move back into a normal house. My tween loved reading about all of Lizza’s schemes in an attempt to get her family back to “normal.”

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cute story and illustrations. Appreciate the fact that the mom warns the kids the feral cat may not like human interaction, which might help emotionally regulate a child that becomes upset with a feral cat in real life. The book also realistically discussed TNR programs, which was nice it mentions real-world programs.

As an educator, I appreciate the use of dialogue- so many kids books don’t have dialogue for teaching grammar and what quotation marks mean, and the conversations contained within the book are authentic!

The art in this book is very beautiful to look at, and definitely draws my eye in to read the story. I love this story and being taught about TNR, like the characters in the book, I was unaware of this program and think it is great. I hope this book can reach many that will be willing to look into the TNR program and help other stray cats. I kind of wish I could have found out what happens to the kittens in the end, where did they go? But happy that the momma cat still comes back around.

Brilliance
The seventh book in the Masters of the Consulate series and I am still hooked. With each new book I am just blown away. Vampires, witches, alpha males, steam and such a strong storyline keeps the reader glued from start to finish. This is Master Campania’s story and he is so headstrong and as alpha as they can get. Even though this can be read as a stand alone, it would be a shame not to read all the books in the series – they are just sinfully delightful. Highly recommend.

The Silent Woodsman is the first book in The Olympic Peninsula Series (Audiobook) by this author with narration by Cat Treadgold.  This is my first Audiobook by this author and I’m a fan already. She did a wonderful job with narrating the characters really came to life with the different tones of her voice. I’m fairly new to this author and her work .She pulls you in from the beginning and it’s hard to stop listening.  A storm brought them together but their worlds are keeping them apart. I highly recommend listening to this book to find out what happens next. I don’t want to give to much away. This is definitely worth listening to. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

I read this and then re read it with some of my little bookworms that visit my library and I must be honest it was a lot more fun the second time round because I could see through the eyes of a child ❣️📚

Being an animal lover I can imagine that having a dad that’s a taxidermist must be an absolute nightmare for Liza but when he decides to put the family on “ display” in a cave i think that was the last straw for her and she makes a decision to rescue herself for. This situation but for every action there’s a reaction right !? The latter isn’t always fun though and more often than not what we expect isn’t what we get and our decision don’t always only affect us but those around us and this is where myself and kids had great discussions and while they enjoyed the story they walked away feeling like they’d learnt something ❣️📚

A fun and interactive read for em and my little friends ❣️📚

Terri Sabol is an accomplished children’s book author, renowned for her heartwarming and entertaining stories featuring the real-life adventures of her two beloved rescue kittens, Oscar and Emmy. Born and raised in Texas, Terri developed a love of writing and storytelling at a young age, and always dreamed of one day becoming an author. Thinking that was out of reach, she focused on her other dream… teaching.

After graduating from college with a Masters degree in education, Terri worked as an early childhood teacher, and it was during this time that her passion for picture books truly blossomed. She was inspired by the joy and wonder that children experienced when reading and listening to stories, and it was this love for inspiring young minds that led her to create her own series of children’s books.

Terri’s debut book, “Oscar and Emmy Get Rescued”, was published in 2016, and told the heartwarming story of how she came to adopt her two kittens from the animal shelter where she volunteered. The book was an instant hit with children and parents alike, and it quickly became clear that there was a demand for more stories featuring Oscar and Emmy and to help educate children on the importance being involved in pet care.

Over the years, Terri has continued to write new books in the series, each one capturing the unique personalities and quirks of her two adventurous cats. Her books not only entertain children, but also promote the values of compassion and kindness towards animals, as well as the importance of rescue and adoption.

In addition to her Oscar and Emmy series, Terri has also written several other books showing off her writing skills, including “Green With Envy” and “Kneading a Winning Idea”.

When she’s not writing, Terri can be found spending time with her two rescue kitties, Oscar and Emmy. She also loves travelling and exploring new places and visiting old favorites, all the while taking inspiration for her next book. Through her stories, Terri hopes to inspire children to explore the world around them, to embrace their imaginations, to never give up on their goals, and to always be kind and compassionate towards others, especially animals.

Reticent Hawke is Book #2 in the new Hawke Family Second Generation series by Gwyn McNamee. I was expecting to love this book, because hello, it’s Gwyn McNamee— but I really didn’t expect to FLOVE it so very very hard. Even having Ms. McNamee play her version of whac-a-mole and pinball with my heart and emotions – making me reach for the tissues, more than once- while I was sobbing my heart out and trying to read through all the tears — she wrung me out and I FLOVED every second!
GAH, this is going to be a short review, because how can I ever hope to capture PERFECTION in a few short paragraphs??? Seriously, if you haven’t read this book yet, do yourself a favour and grab a copy and dive right in- you won’t regret it- I cannot recommend this book/series/author highly enough! You NEED her and this book in your life!
I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us in Book #3- Relentless Hawke.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Gwyn McNamee!

Murder in a Gated Community by Laura Koerber – Review by Beverly Finnie

Murder in a Gated CommunityMurder in a Gated Community by Laura Koerber
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Murder in a Gated Community was different. It was written from the point of view of a few people that could sometimes be confusing. The way the author wrote the characters at first I thought it was a retirement community. But then there was a family with a child. Even then the characters reminded me of the ones who always yelled at us when we were outside playing as kids. Because we were running around, our ball/frisbee ended up on their lawn, ect. Older grumpier people, hence why I initially thought it was a retirement community.
There’s a lot going on in such a short story. Jane is trying to deal with her ailing wife while moving on. Hazel is fighting for her garden plot, I wonder why? And Theresa is dealing with the backlash of it all.
So when the community is rocked it’s a question of how to move forward.
It’s not a basic whodunnit type story. It’s one with a lot of “Karen’s” people constantly complaining about little things to the community board of directors and how they handle the outcomes.
