This was a cute story about Meg and her sister Sue. Meg is blind and Sue tried very hard to frighten Meg by talking about monsters but with every scary thing she says Meg answers her with something positive and explaining all the sense she uses to build up pictures in her mind. I can imagine many talking pints for children in this story about how Meg uses her other senses to see what is going on around her and whether Sue was being a good big sister or not. A well written story that was easy to read and illustrated beautifully as well.

I love it when I find a new authors work to read and I was so impressed by this book! MC stories are one of my favourite to read, I love an alpha male and the MC alpha males always seem to be the best – super protective and loyal! Reaper was no exception to this rule – I knew as soon as I started to read about him I was going to love his character. There was such a great connection between him and Ava and I was completely rooting for them the whole way through. I liked that their romance was a slow burn one I think it suited them. I thought this this was a great start to a new series and I’m looking forward to reading more from this author in the future.

OMG I LOVED this book! From beginning to end I was completely hooked by what I was reading. I’ve read so many of this authors book now that I don’t even bother reading the synopsis I just grab and start reading and as per usual I was not disappointed. I honestly don’t know how she does it every time I say that’s my favourite until I read the next one! This book was just fantastic, this book is definitely dark and delicious from the very start. Lorenzo and Izzy’s story was amazing, she was definitely a match for him and I loved that about the two characters. This book could be read as a standalone but I would 100% recommend reading them in order, you won’t be disappointed!!

This is definitely one of those books I am glad I picked up, it was such a great read – I thoroughly enjoyed it. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I loved his writing style, I was gripped the whole way through and couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to see what was going to happen next. I loved that it was different to what I usually read and the storyline was great – cozy mystery with a bit of music thrown in! Darcy was a great character to follow in this story, she was really relatable – she proved herself to be a great detective! I would definitely recommend this book to others and I’m looking forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Kenney – Review by Katie Matthews
This is the 3rd book in The Virus of Beauty series. I really recommend reading these books in order so you get a complete idea of the story and the amazing world the author creates. This is a fantasy adventure and it has been one rollercoaster of a ride. There has been action, danger, magic and everything in-between. My heart goes out to Wilf. All he has wanted is to be a normal teenager but magic has other plans for him and because he is struggling to embrace the magic he’s stuck and can’t seem to move forward. This feeling has him questioning everything and wondering if he has what it takes to take the responsibility the magic requires. Wilf find himself questioning everything including his feelings towards Katryna. In this story Wilf needs to embrace his power if he is going to defeat the evil that is threatening everything he knows and loves. It is a story of magical danger and finally being able to embrace the person you are. Does embracing his magic mean that Wilf will be saying goodbye to his normal teenage life forever? What would be the consequences if he decides to turn his back on the magic? I was captivated with this whole series. It is a really unique story that takes the reader and a rollercoaster of emotions as we follows Wilf journey and adventure to save the magical Realms while still trying to remain a normal teenager.

Lyall – Review by Kerry Carr
This amazingly talented author simply never ever disappoints! This book is yet another example of her creativity and talent. It is raw, emotional and will keep you hooked all the way through as long as a push and pull type storyline is your cup of tea. Hell even if it isn’t your usual go to give this book a read. These two characters, brought together and bonded over violence, who fight their attraction for each other, will draw you in even when your heart wants to break for them at times. I will say it ends on a cliff hanger so be prepared.

What a great start to what I hope will become an amazing series for this wonderful author. Reaper and Ava are fantastic characters with an amazing connection right from the very start. I truly could not put this down until I was finished reading every creative word! Reaper captured my heart from the very beginning and I just knew he would be the man for Ava. I loved the other characters just as much and I am really hoping they get their stories told too. I will definitely be watching for more from this talented author.

My coven and I now live by the moon’s phases, and transforming into a wolf is no longer a choice. If we want to break the curse and take back our magic, I must pretend to be someone I’m not. Navigating the Dutchmen’s lands won’t be easy, but my people are counting on me.
My enemy, the prince of the Dutchmen coven, is searching for a wife, and I’m going to use this to my advantage. I can’t afford to fail, but what if I’m attracted to the prince’s darkness?

He’s dying, and it’s my burden to become the new holder of the precious gem.
When Rose shows up in my realm, something changes deep inside me. I’m no longer focused on what I should do. Instead, I’m questioning my future.

Soul Redeemed is the fifth book in the War of Destiny series by Theresa Van Spankeren. As each book in this series builds on what has come previously, I highly recommend reading the first four books before starting on this one, because they all come together to creating a ‘bigger picture’, not to mention they are all great reads, providing hours of entertaining adventure to plunge into. This is an original, clever and intriguing paranormal saga with vampires, action, adventure, high stakes, politics, agendas, atmospheric world building, danger, intrigue, tense developments, violence, and plenty of suspense. I am really enjoying this adventure- and Ms. Van Spankeren raises the stakes here for us, and the characters- bringing even more tension, dramatic developments, and intrigue- in a high-stakes race against time which kept me glued to the pages to find out how everything would play out in the end. Can’t wait to see what Ms. Van Spankeren has in store for us next! Happy Reading!

This is the second book of the Hidden Valley Elite series; the third if you count the prequel. It is the final part of the Cole and Riley’s story. And even though this is the end of Cole and Riley, the road to get there was not paved smoothly lmao at all but man was it an amazing emotional roller coaster to ride, intense too.Cole is a little butt at times but I’m glad that they got their happily ever after. I can’t wait to read the next one and see who the story will be about and how crazy that their lives get man oh man does this author really does know how to keep me coming back for more. I highly recommend reading these.

I did nothing but read this book since yesterday. Determined to finish it. I had so many questions and my curiosity had to be fulfilled. Zoey is amazing. The way she protects her loved ones. I can see why she had a hard time letting anyone in. Tristan took me a bit to warm up to. On one hand I understand his desire to take some of that burden away from Zoey but at times it came off forceful.

Savage Truth: A Dark High School Bully Romance (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2)
Oh my goodness! I am so in love with this couple and book. So much happens in a very short time and I could not stop reading from the moment I got home until it was done.
Riley and Cole have such amazing chemistry and the sparks are life changing for both of them.
This book will keep you in the edge of your seat especially the last third of the book and you will not want to put it down.
Totally worth every second spent reading and I am excited to get started on the. Next book in the series.

I love retellings of fairy tales, especially when it is a take I have yet to see. This is a wonderful Cinderella story set in the 1800’s. You get all those normal things like the slipper and wicked stepmother, but there is just so much more to this story. Ellie is under a curse that hides her true identity from the world. Can she figure out how to break it? Who holds the key to her heart?

Amazing. This is the first book I have read by the talented Amanda Uhl, and I found myself up way too late this morning unable to put it down. Told from the dual perspectives of Lillian and Tristan, this book is sure to make you fall in love from start to finish with the characters. Lillian Milano has been hiding under an alias for two years, Zoey Mills, away from her family alone to protect them. When her younger sister Hannah is suddenly sick with a deadly virus, she risks everything to return to Cleveland to help her. While at the hospital doing all that she can she meets the computer tycoon Tristan King, while leaving the room of a little girl. Tristan King is the most eligible bachelor in Cleveland but meeting the mysterious Zoey gives him a mystery to solve that will forever change both of their lives. The connection between them is instant, neither understanding why they are so willing to share things that they usually keep bottled up. Tristan, while skeptical, is willing to take a chance when evidence is in front of him in two cases that Zoey (Lillian) is more than she appears to be and truly has some kind of gift for healing the sick. What starts out as a confusing but mutually beneficial agreement quickly turns into something deeper. Lillian’s mother was murdered by Kinetica, a genetic research and testing company that used her mother trying to make “super healers”, but she escaped leading them to finish her off but not before she was able to warn Lillian who fled her home and her family. Tristan being so focused on her notices that she is frightened and not just about her “friend”, seeing her physically become ill with fear when face to face with Dominic Raines the CEO of Kinetica he begins to have more and more questions calling his security company and friend Brian Townsend to investigate her. Leading to even more questions which are tangled with their deep feelings that build. Lillian can save her sister but what will happen next? Has Tristan found a miracle worker that can help his mother? Will Zoey (Lillian) and Tristan be able to give into their hearts desires and get a happily ever after that neither thought was possible? While the world the author creates is one of reality the sprinkles of the paranormal and supernatural leaves you searching for more answers. The characters are perfect, their different facets that make them more complex than they appear on the surface, the way both felt the same, but fear and skepticism kept them trying to deny their hearts. I could not get enough of this book and didn’t stop until I had reached the end with all the answers we were searching for. I can’t wait to read more from the amazing Amanda Uhl and look forward to Hannah and Brian’s story.

This is a sweet, small town romance filled with love, sass, fake engagement and definite two wounded souls and it gave me all the feels. This was an easy read and quite enjoyable.
Ivy is trying to save her own ranch, being independent and on her own, definitely not getting any respect from some of the other male clientele from the work that she does on her farm. Having a helping hand from Ace, a former marine, both Ivy and Ace are trying to work hard to get Ivy’s farm noticed. When a stingy snob tries to offer Ivy money for her farm, Ace steps in and helps Ivy but also announces their “engagement”. How will this new engagement play out as Ace and Ivy then try to navigate their feelings toward each…especially when both Ivy and Ace have their own past hurts that still haunt them.
I loved the chemistry between Ivy and Ace…it felt so raw and real…..the protectiveness of Ivy’s brother and I also loved Ace’s mother Liz. Great story and looking forward to reading more!

5/5 Stars This book hit very close to home as I lost my grandmother the same way. The display of realistic relationships and relationship complications made this a great read. It is a quick read, but it’s worth the read. The realistic display of faith is very refreshing. This isn’t a Christian book that’s corny and filled with fluff. It tackles tough situations and is very good about keeping it realistic.

Oh my lanta. THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING. Ava slayed her part in the story and honestly where has this author been all my life. This book was a heck of a kick off for a series and I CANNOT wait to see where she takes it from here because I wholly consumed this book from start to finish and it will be a hard one to top. Where do I even start, the dynamic between characters? AMAZING. The story line? Too good. It was just so well written, laid out perfectly and flowed like a rushing river. Read it. Then read it again because it really is dang good!!!

4 Stars out of 5 Stars
Great conclusion to Cole and Riley’s story. This story will have you hooked from the start. it’s definitely a great story for those that love the suspense and drama of teenage love. Highly recommend reading the previous books to be able to understand some details of the story. This is an easy read and great for a weekend break. Can’t wait to read the other books related to the series.

WOW. I have enjoyed every book in this series so far, including the prequel, but this one has definitely surpassed the others in my opinion. This is a bully romance and boy does it deliver. All of the drama and angsty feelings from high school come reeling back with a magnificent plot. The chemistry is palpable, and I found myself rooting for things I hadn’t expected! I don’t want to give too much away, but I must stress that this series (especially this book) is absolutely one you should pick up! You won’t want to miss the intense emotions and amazingly deep characters of the Hidden Valley Elite series.

This story about Ivy and Ace is quite adorable. Ivy is trying to save her ranch from sexist clients. In steps Ace with a hair-brained idea of a fake engagement to help her out. Ace is a former Marine with some external and internal scars from being in the war. Ace is always driving Ivy nuts by constantly trying to save her when she feels like she doesn’t need to be saved. Ivy gets under Ace’s skin by accepting him for his shortcomings and scars. The constant back and forth between the two is absolutely adorable, and made me giggle a few times here and there. Its a cute story that pulls you in from page one and holds you until the end.

This is my first book from Amanda Uhl and what an amazing first it was! The very first page grabs hold of your attention and never lets go. I couldn’t put it down and devoured the whole book in a matter of hours. The flow was natural and there were plenty of details that made the characters feel so real. I was entirely too invested in Lillian and Tristan throughout the entire book! It gets quite emotional, but definitely worth the read. I highly recommend picking this up, especially if you are a fan of the paranormal and romance genres!

Lillian Milano isn’t like most paranormals in her world. She takes energy from the healthy to help heal the sick. This power puts a target straight on her back and puts her and everyone she loves in danger. All of her fears are put on hold when her sister becomes deathly ill, and she’ll do anything to help heal her.
Tristan King is, in short, a billionaire. After being burned by his ex, and with his mother dying, he doesn’t want or need another relationship.
Tristan is so full of life and energy, exactly the energy Lillian needs, and she’s got something he needs as well: a single night with no attachments to get his ex off his back.
I devoured this book. It was so fast paced, emotional, humorous, and full of excitement. I really hope this is the start of a series, because I’d love to read more in this universe!
Lillian is so loving and caring for everyone around her and Tristan is so calm and collected. The two balance one another out nicely. Definitely a great read, I’d recommend to anyone who loves the paranormal!

Looking through books to read, I was so intrigued with this plot that I had to give it a try. A mix of supernatural and romance, just my cup of tea! It starts with Lillian, who has a magical healing ability, and tries using her skills in healing her sister. She ends up bumping into Tristan King who may end up being to help her heal her sister. In turn, as they become more familiar with each other’s situations, they end up helping each other out but only to have secrets unravel. I truly enjoyed this book. Related to Lilian’s spirit. This story captivates the reader from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go till the end. Very much worth the read!

As always check trigger warnings. We continue to follow Cole and Riley. And after the cliffhanger of the last book, I was not disappointed. I truly love the chemistry of these two. And also with the suspense it is just a wonderful time. I am absolutely continuing this series!

Savage Truth (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Jessica Stone
I am ABSOLUTELY in love with the series, I cannot express how pumped I am to read the rest of these, this is easily becoming one of my favorite series.
This is book two in this series and it concludes Cole and Riley’s story, the next book focuses on his younger brother Damon and while I’m excited, I can’t help but feel a bit sad. Now into the characters, I love Cole and his character development over the last two books but this book especially, you get more of a feel about who he is and you get a look into his emotions. Riley, was kinda a pain in my butt at first, she (in a sense) felt slightly entitled to me, she was quick to anger and jump to her own conclusions but I loved watching her character growing up in this book and seeing her relationship with Cole evolve was fun. I loved the push pull of it, the spicy, the force of their attraction and how it became undeniable for them.
What I didn’t see coming because there wasn’t as much in the first book was the action and suspense, holy cow, there was so much more to the story and everything that happened in the past and that all really comes to light in this book. Cole and Riley sucked me in, but the action in this book left me wanting more. I almost can’t explain it without giving the whole book away. Anyways, Isla is a wonderful author, she knows how to build a story and give you just enough to keep you coming back for more. Can’t wait to see what else this author has in store for this series!

Savage Truth is available now in eBook and Physical Book ⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review
Savage Truth is the second installment of the Hidden Valley Elite series. It is an enemies-to-lovers, dark high school bully romance featuring the conclusion of Cole and Riley’s story. I have been following this series since the prequel and have absolutely fallen in love. The amount of heat, angst, secrets and emotion is top notch. Vaughn is known for her romance books that are full of complex characters, strong alpha males, and fierce women who bring them to their knees. This installment does not let you down in any of those categories. Vaughn’s previous book left you on a cliffhanger. Savage Truth picks up right where it left off, keeping you roped in from the very beginning. I recommend reading this entire series in order so you do not feel confused or miss any detail. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the characters, story line, and plot of this entire series. I would recommend Vaughn as an author to all my reader friends along with this series. I can’t wait to see what else Vaughn has up her sleeve.

This is a take on Jack and the Beanstalk. In this story, Jacqueline falls for the old trick of giving her cow for some magic beans. She figures out how to make the trick work to her advantage and get her family the food they need for the winter. This is a cute retell, great illustrations and it is nice to see the girl outsmart the giant!
A Monster for Meg was not what I expected, it was better. I loved the analogies used to help describe things to Meg. She is blind, and her sister is trying to help her understand why monsters are scary. My seven year old son enjoyed it, and liked the pictures. He said Meg’s sister was nice for answering all her questions, because his siblings would tell him to quit asking so many. The book would be great to help young children understand a little of what life would be like for someone who cannot see. It could also be used for a lesson on the senses.
