My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So, I read the prequel to this a couple months ago, and lemme tell you, I was not expecting how this book started. The author does such a good job of keeping your attention! I couldn’t put the dang book down! I was so addicted to it! Also, Isaac? The best. Absolute chef’s kiss. “There is no god, only me.” I was swooning over this man and their chemistry for so much of the book. Definitely one of my top books of the year so far!!

Ocean’s Three (Made In Heaven #2) by Elena Kincaid – Review by Beverly Finnie

Ocean's Three (Made In Heaven, #2)Ocean’s Three by Elena Kincaid
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m obsessed with this series and I hope the author doesn’t stop at two books. I recently read the first book and I was excited to jump into Ocean’s Three. I kind of liked Ocean’s Three better. These books are a different perspective on soulmates/romance. Who knew soulmates could be more than two people. This book gives you that and so much more. Plus it gets any woman’s fantasies churning when you jump into a MMF romance. I wouldn’t believe you if you told me otherwise, but I digress.
Cameron, Reed, and Jocelyn meet in their dreams. Not very conventional but it works. Of course Cameron and Reed being cousins know it’s not just a dream. That it’s very real vivid situations that they discuss between one another at length. Jocelyn on the other hand doesn’t feel they are real, so she does what she feels is best to protect her heart. She cuts them off. That is until a very real Cameron and Reed show up on the same cruise she’s on for work. Now what?
This is their adventure. This is their story. The author pulls you in and gets you invested. You feel what the characters feel at times, which I attribute to great writing. When an author can get one emotionally invested in their work, it just shows how wonderful their work actually is. And this author definitely has me invested.
This may be the second book in this series but it’s no way connected to the first book. It’s very much a standalone novel. One worth reading. Me, I would recommend you read both and decide which one you enjoy more, but that’s just me. I guarantee you will enjoy both!

Fallen Soul (War of Destiny # 4)Fallen Soul by Theresa Van Spankeren
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the fourth book in the War of Destiny series. Lane wishes for his home as he’s fleeing from the Vampire King. Will he find a way to survive and find his home again?
I unfortunately did not read the previous books. However, I found myself getting pulled into this story mainly because of the great writing by the author. As you read, you can imagine the danger, adventure, violence, and so much more that Lane is feeling. It’s hard not to turn the page to see what happens next. I will be looking for the other books in this series. I’m sure I missed some aspects of the story and I would like to read about Lane’s prior experiences.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a terrific paranormal romance full of steamy scenes and tons of chemistry. I didn’t realize it was the second book in the series, so I just downloaded the first so I can get the full experience. That being said, I wasn’t lost reading this as a standalone and loved it just the same. Cameron, Reed, and Jocelyn have the most amazing chemistry together and the emotions reeled me in. It felt like a rollercoaster of feelings with happiness, grief, mystery, plenty of steamy romance with MFM relationship. I highly recommend picking this one up and going on this sultry adventure with these three beautiful characters. I’m off to read the first one in this series and catch up. I can’t wait to see what else the author has in store for us, especially if it involves Cameron, Reed, and Jocelyn!

Another entertaining and spooky installment of the Madame Chalamet Mysteries! This is truly my favorite mystery series in a long time! Things just keep getting more intense with every book and volume Three Spirit Guide is my favorite so far! Not just the feelings between Tristan and Elinor but with what we learn about The Morpheus Society and possibly Elinor’s fathers killer! I cannot wait to get my hands on the fourth book in this addicting gaslamp fantasy series, Grey Lady! Byrd Nash had me on the edge of my seat! Spirit Guide was a quick paced and fun read! You can really feel Tristan and Elinor’s pent up attraction to one another and it feels genuine. I highly recommend this series to any mystery lover who enjoys when the ghosts are real! I also recommend starting with book One, Ghost Talker, to truly experience Madame Elinor Chalamet and Duke de Archambeau/Tristan Fontaine’s journey from the beginning!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Optimistic Amy becomes a nanny while attempting to get along with her more cynical boss Noah. This book has all the trademarks of a rom-com but dives deeper into the trials and tribulations some books tend to skim over. I love how the author showcased the characters in such a way that they were beyond the page and came to life from the first chapter! Though this is a short book, I felt the pace was perfect and the storyline flowed well, allowing the reader to organically ride the emotional rollercoaster throughout. I read this book out of order, but will circle back to read some of the others in the series!

So this is the first book I have read by this author and this is the type of book I dream about.

Now here they are trying to keep Jack and her daughter safe from threats made to her parents. Can Issac keep them safe? Can he get her to stay if he can?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cry Baby by Belinda Williams is available now in eBook only
⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review

Noah Pierce not only lost his best friend unexpectedly at age 34 to Covid but became the legal guardian to her 7 month old baby girl, Amelia. Noah is a grumpy workaholic who has no idea how to be a father. Noah has no idea how a child will fit into his world. Luckily, happy-go-lucky Amy Highgate saunters into his life and is willing to take the job as his overly paid live-in nanny. Amy thought this was a great opportunity to save money to work towards her teaching degree. She had no idea that this gig would turn into an attraction for her boss.

Cry Baby is the fourth installment of the Pierce Brother series but can easily be read as a standalone. This was my first time reading a novel written by Williams and I absolutely loved her work. The characters were all lovable, relatable, and had a story to share. Amy had skeletons in her closet that didn’t surface until a specific event triggered the past. I love that Williams was able to write about these triggers and the need and response to therapy with such poise. There were times Williams brought tears to my eyes. The loss of Beth was hard on many people and the discovery of the information about Amelia’s father just stole my heart. And the letter, well we won’t talk about what that letter did to my mama heart strings!

Overall, this was a really good book! If I could rate it with more than 5 stars I most definitely would. Probably one of the best I have read all year. I personally have not read any of the other books in this series but I am headed to Amazon now to purchase the remainder of the series. I highly recommend reading Cry Baby by Belinda Williams. You won’t regret it!

A Dress To Remember: A Fairy TaleA Dress To Remember: A Fairy Tale by K.L. Small
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

There is so much I enjoyed about this book! From the rich, imaginative storytelling and the gorgeous illustrations sprinkled throughout all the way to the family history notes this book was a pleasure to read. Written for younger readers but just as enjoyable as an adult, this book really kept my interest from start to finish. Zarina was painfully whiny at the start of the story as the youngest of many, and especially royalty is expected to be, I suppose. I was genuinely surprised when I found myself really connecting with the narration as the story progressed. I’m not one to often let my imagination run wild or seek out a fairytale type story but I’m really glad I gave this a chance.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Summer I Went Crazy is a thought provoking story that wrenches your gut. When a high school boy is witness to a rape at a party – one that his friends participated in… what does he do? How does he rectify that act within his own heart and mind? The story is hard to swallow because the content is so real – things like this happen more often than we like. The characters in the story hook you in- I could feel their angst and I just wanted to help. This is an emotional read, one I was hooked into right from the first pages.

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I first chose this book, I was unaware that it was part of a series, however, I don’t think I missed anything vital from the previous books. I would say it can be read as a standalone.
There were aspects of the story that were deeper than I was expecting for example grief and loss however the author was navigated this very well and portrayed the emotions so well there were times I found myself feeling the emotions too.
I loved the main characters, Amy and Noah, they were both sweet and trying to figure things out, overcoming their personal traumas and the way their romance progressed was very sweet, though not easy. Amy was the bubbly one, while Noah initially appears withdrawn. The way they come together, and they bounce off each other and grow as people was endearing.
The writing style was easy to follow, and I didn’t want to put the book down at al even taking it to work with me. I found myself smiling and emotional alongside the characters and will certainly be going back to read the earlier books in the series – the author has a new fan in me!

This is the second book in the series but it can be read as a standalone. The characters in this book were great. They had a strong chemistry and really hit it off from the moment they met. I enjoyed watching their relationship develop as the book went on.
The story was pretty fast paced and I found that I could get through the book quickly. I think it would have benefitted from being a longer story with more detail but overall it was enjoyable. For me this is the right kind of book to lose yourself in for a few hours. I will definitely be reading the next book in the series.

Ocean’s Three

This is the second book in the Made in Heaven series, however, it definitely functions as a standalone. I did read the first book and I loved it and this one is just as good if not better.
Cameron is having visions. These visions repeatedly focus on a girl named Jocelyn, one that he definitely doesn’t think exists. However, soon these visions begin to feature his cousin Reed he begins to question what is real and what is not. However, one cruise brings the three of them together and no one can even imagine what will happen from there.
This book is so much different than the first book. It is very well written and definitely tugs on all of your emotions. I definitely recommend this!

Amy is looking for a nanny position while she transitions from a beauty journalist to taking university classes for education. She finds the perfect position when her best friend’s brother in law is given guardianship of his best friend’s daughter when she suddenly passes away. Noah Pierce doesn’t necessarily know how to handle a baby. Amelia is the seven month old daughter of his best friend Beth and he is so unsure of what to do. Noah is such a workaholic and that’s where Amy comes in. Amy was never meant to fall for Noah and Noah was never meant to fall for her. How could a relationship like this go wrong?

4 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Another enjoyable story by this author and the 2nd book in this series, and I loved the this story differed in a sense but stayed true to the MFM relationship.

Cameron has a sense of visions that he sees that include his cousin, Reed and also a girl, Jocelyn.
When the unexpected happens and Jocelyn loses her mother, she pushes away both Cameron and Reed as she deal with this loss. What happens when Jocelyn is at a worksite cruise and she meets Cameron and Reed in the flesh…..emotions run wild.

Will Cameron and Reed hold on to Jocelyn and can they find love and be all together? When Cameron’s visions come into play will he be honest with Reed or Jocelyn or try and protect them when it matters most.

Ocean's Three (Made In Heaven, #2)Ocean’s Three by Elena Kincaid
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ocean’s Three is the second wonderful book in the Made in Heaven series. I have not long finished the first book Three Made In Heaven and really enjoyed it so was happy to snatch this one up.
As with the first book there are many tropes to this book with ménage à trois, romance, MFM, erotica, paranormal and new adult.
Elena has written another beautiful emotional and heartfelt story. The characters are well written and their story is sexy and steamy, titillating and hot along with some fun.
Fate had somehow tethered them together long before they had ever met. What is real and what is just dreams they don’t know. But that all stopped when tragedy struck. When Fate once again steps in they all find themselves in the one place knowing dreams can come true.
I look forward to what comes next from this author.

Destiny of Light (Quirk of Destiny, #3)Destiny of Light by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

~ The Finale in a Gripping Apocalyptic Trilogy~

I highly recommend starting from the first book and then reading the trilogy in order. It appears that the stories are meant to be read in order. If you try to pick up from the third book characters are not re-introduced along with their importance to other characters. The themes appear to be easier to pick up, but you won’t really be able to pick up on the clues intended to lead you to how the demise of the world began in the first place. Regardless, you will certainly enjoy the stories and watching Calum attempt to save the world.

In this final story you will be spun on a journey about Genetically modified foods, the fallout of the human race into tribes and villages, encounter lost people who may have come to care for deeply, leaving you constantly on edge.

There is a group of people known/identified as Genies, appearing to be normal humans in the midst of others, albeit wielding extreme power. Amongst them, or perhaps surrounding them, are a group of elitists that are somehow intermingled in a unique and powerful way. There has been a mutation of the human gene pool, and possibly others genetics have been altered as well, bending the fabric of reality as we know it. This educational sci-fi piece is very unique, and an interesting read.

Our hero Calum is doing his best to help everyone to survive and restore the Earth to a livable state, but the rate at which destruction is occurring is faster than he can overcome it. Read on through the end to discover the truth behind the mysteries surrounding his efforts. What you may find could be very surprising.

If you have ever wanted to read the post-apocalyptic genre, focused more on the sciences and challenges your way of thinking, you won’t be disappointed. This is the final installment of the series and I can definitely say you will be wanting to pick up the first two in the series if you haven’t read it already. …Now it’s up to us…

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Elinor Chalamet is BACK and has a pesky apprentice to boot! After not hearing from the Duke de Archambeau for months, he suddenly reappears with a request for help from Elinor. His friend’s daughter has disappeared, and the man is adamant that the Morpheus Society is to blame. Seeing as how this is the very institution that helped Elinor hone her skills, she feels obligated to investigate. As she digs deeper into the mystery, she discovers that her annoying apprentice, Twyla, is skilled in getting into The Beyond. With the stakes high, the duke adds a kiss to the mix to have Elinor questioning his high handedness with how she is working the case. Will she finally get answers from him about how he feels towards her? Will she be able to find the missing daughter before it is too late?

I thoroughly enjoy this series. Elinor is such a fun character! She has so many questions and you think she’s going to get the answers but for every one answered, it seems like 4 more pop up. I felt bad for her for not getting all of the answers she was looking for but also encouraged because she deserves some happiness. While she isn’t thrilled with having an apprentice, I can see how she is going to mold her into someone that will be an asset to her growing team of mystery solvers. Can’t wait for the next book!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a cute romance that hits many different tropes. Boss to lover, Sunny vs. Grumpy, and a little just spit it out. I thought Belinda Williams did a great job of weaving these together. I had not read the previous Pierce Brothers, but works as a stand alone. There was not a lot of spice, but the spicy parts were well written and fit with the story, not just popping up out of nowhere, and I like in a book.

When Noah’s best friend suddenly passes away and leave him with her daughter Amelia, he needs help. Enter, Amy! Amy is a glass half full kinda gal and Noah has always seen the dark side since his mother passed away. Amy works hard to show Noah there is more to life than the secluded one he has built for himself. When working through his issues, she finds she may have been burrying some of her own.

Jasmine Bucker does something she should not. But she does have a plan and nobody is going to stand in her way. Her father is sick and she promised she would help him financially.  But as luck would have it. Something very wrong had taken a turn for the worst. The phony cops have taken her money and she will do what it takes to get it back. That’s all I will tell you about the story, no spoilers for you. This author not only writes well, her stories are well worth reading. Her sense of humor plays a big part in this fast paced crime thriller. I love the interactions of the characters. At times I found myself laughing at the events of this story. This is a must read series! I can not wait for the next book.
