Hoosier Dad by Elizabeth Seckman – Review by Jenni Bishop

Hoosier DadHoosier Dad by Elizabeth Seckman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hoosier Dad by Elizabeth Seckman is a second chance romance that is fun and light hearted story that was also witty and charming. I enjoy Elizabeth’s writing style and read the book in one sitting. I also found it to be a refreshing and clever read. The story flowed well and the journey the characters took was full of emotions and heat, heart and soul, passion and drama and they were palpable and very vivid. This is my first read by Elizabeth and I really enjoyed it. It has all the ingredients that makes it a feel good read that has you laughing out loud at times. Elizabeth has a way with words that make it not only fun but it is also witty and interesting, mysterious at times and oh so steamy.The story is told in dual POV’s which I love love love and we get to see where each character comes from and it gives so much more depth to the story. Lets just say that with differing POV’s it definitely made the story more enjoyable and at times completely outrageous.

Sarah has come back to town and comes face to face with the man who didn’t just break her heart he stomped on it but when he is in need of help she offers straight away and what she finds is nothing like what she left behind.

Rich is on the lookout for a wife. His expectations are outrageous and made me laugh so hard. When his ex causes trouble he turns to the one person who doesn’t like him but what he finds is something he never thought would happen.

A great read and one to add to your TBR list.

Dark (The Dark Series #1) by Paul L Arvidson – Review by Jenni Bishop

Dark (The Dark Trilogy Book 1)Dark by Paul L. Arvidson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dark (The Dark Series #1) by Paul L Arvidson is a fantasy sci fi story and is a dark tale. It is a story that has plenty of mystery and adventure, action and danger that keeps you intrigued. There were unexpected twists and turns and the world building was good, which helped to make it a reality that was believable. I did however think that the story could be
expanded a little more in some areas but it did not detract from the overall story. I really liked the characters, they are well developed and I enjoyed their humour. Dark is a place that has no light and the people live in a labyrinth of pipes and drains.

Dun and his friends are tasked with finding out what has become of their neighbours which sets them on an unexpected journey where the danger and horror are palpable and discoveries are just as mysterious and enlightening.

I look forward to what Paul has in store for us next.

Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #3) by Manda Mellett – Review by Jenni Bishop

Devil's Due: Satan's Devils MC Colorado Chapter #3Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #3 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #3) by Manda Mellett is another wonderful addition to this series. Manda has completely spellbound me with these wonderful characters and the MC books that she writes so well. I know I am good hands whenever I see a Manda Mellett book. This series is a spinoff of the Satan’s Devils Mc Series (which I just love, love, love). I mean who doesn’t love alpha men in an MC who will do anything to keep those he loves safe and there is nothing better than watching them fall in love when they have confirmed themselves bachelors.

Manda’s stories captivates you and you are not able to put it down until you have come to the last page. Her characters pop off the page and makes them come alive as you take the journey with them. If I ever needed help they would be the first port of call that’s how vivid Manda writes them. As always there is action and loyalty, brotherhood and love, lies and deceit, and let’s not forget the steamy romances. Your emotions will be all over the place

I can’t recommend this book and the other MC books that Manda has written. They should be on your TBR lists.

Kingdom of WarKingdom of War by Tricia Copeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kingdom of War (Kingdom Journals Volume 4) by Tricia Copeland is a paranormal fantasy and it is a story that is easy to lose yourself in. I have not read the other books in this series but I was able to follow along nether the less but I will be finding the other books in this series and I enjoyed this one so much. This story has everything you need to keep you enthralled. There is action and danger, lies and deceit, vampires and witches, fairies and angels just to name a few. This is part four of the series where the group known as the Trinity come into their powers and must face off against their biggest enemies or lose a world as they know it.

Hunter struggles with his new found power and worries that the son may become the father. He is a natural born leader and is having trouble not compelling people to do as he asks and work with the others of the group to stop evil.

Can’t wait to read more. Highly recommended.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bowled: Facing the Yorker of Love (To Love a Sportsman Book 1) by Pamela Q. Fernandes is a sweet sports romance story. The plot was solid and it was easy to read and I read it in one sitting. There were times I wanted to shake the characters, for smart people they would do stupid things or be in the wrong circumstance and because of this it frustrated me no end. I wanted to yell at them to wisen up.

Rose decided to cross the continent and follow her heart but what she found was someone who was a nasty human being. On the plus side she found someone who may just fill her heart.

Matthew is still reeling from his last relationship and how he is perceived in the limelight. But when one sassy beautiful woman comes to stay, he can’t help but hope for more.

I enjoy Pamela’s books and look forward to more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Matchmaker’s Match (Man’s Best Friend Book 3) by Nicole Flockton is a fun contemporary romance and another great addition to the series. It can also be read as a standalone. The characters are fully developed and are fun and oh so hot, the air was sizzling when they were around each other. They each had things from their past they had to work through and things as a couple but it is such a sweet and interesting read that I read it all in one sitting.

Meredith has just come face to face with the man she never thought she would see again and one that has been relived in her fantasies, but here he is at her best friends wedding.

Linc has returned home after plans fell through. Now he has to rethink his long term goals and apparently that just may include the one woman he can’t get out of his mind and never ever thought would be in his life, but fate might just have other plans.

I highly recommend this book and this series. You know you want to.

A High Price to Pay (The Madeline Dawkins Series Book 2) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Jenni Bishop

A High Price to Pay (Madeline Dawkins, #2)A High Price to Pay by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A High Price to Pay (The Madeline Dawkins Series Book 2) by Cynthia Hamilton has once again cleverly woven threads to give us another thrilling, fast paced,and exciting story that had me on the edge of the seat from start to finish. Murder and mystery, fear and drama, love and hurt were compelling and emotions were running rampant but the story and the plot flowed smoothly. It can be read as a standalone since there is sufficient information from the first book ‘Girl Trap’ to bring you up to speed but I recommend you read it first as it gives you much more depth to the person Madeline is and what she has gone through.

Madeline fights once again for truth and justice as she faces off against the one monster that has haunted her dreams and made her life a living hell. Unfortunately she can’t seem to catch a break when organising a birthday bash which turns into murder and she is once again in the hunt to catch a killer.

Cynthia has infused elements of humor throughout which kept things from getting to dark and provided a laugh.

If you love a good mystery then give this series a go. You will be pleasantly surprised.

The Last DanceThe Last Dance by Lonna Enox
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Last Dance (The Sorrel Janes Mysteries) by Lonna Enox is a compelling and chilling story that is also a sweet romance. This is my first read by this author and let me tell you I was very impressed by the way Lonna wrote, the way the story flowed and the way the plot pulled it all together. From the very beginning I was drawn in to the mystery and the chilling murders it is thrilling. I was pumped and my mind was racing and I was often on the edge of my seat. To say I sat and read every detail in one sitting is not entirely true because I was often up and pacing whilst reading. But let’s not forget there were some fun times as well.

Sorrel thought starting over in a new town would be easy and she never expected to be embroiled in murders and find someone who may just make her happy.

It was very cleverly done and I can not recommend it enough to you all.

Saint Code: Lost: Book Four of the Lucky Devil Series by Megan Mackie and is a unique and unusual series but highly addictive. You don’t have to read the other books first but ​I recommend that you do because the characters are seen in the other books. The world that Megan has created is a complicated web and it took me a while to sort it all in my head and had to re-read some parts to get it straight it is still a story that I could not put down.

St. Augustine is one character that is sassy and a take no prisoners woman and the detail is vivid and draws you in. I won’t reveal any more because you need to read it for yourself.

Furbidden Attraction: A Cursed Romance (Raven Falls Cursed Romances Book 1) by R. O’Leary is a great start to this paranormal romance series.

Louisa is one stubborn and sassy, fierce and independent lady and I loved her and the easy banter between her and Jack and their chemistry and love for one another was like a light in the dark of the story. This story is action packed with many different types of paranormal beings, shapeshifters and witches, ghouls and more.

Steele Resolve (The Hawke Family Book 6) by Gwyn McNamee is sadly the last book in this great series. I suggest you read all the books in the series in order so that you get the complete picture and backstories of all the wonderful characters. I have come to love all of the characters in this series and am glad that Gwyn included Luca as part of the Hawke family. ​This sexy M/M romance is a story where it is bad enough being a mob boss without throwing being gay into the mix makes for one suspenseful and explosive story.

Luca has come home and wants back into the Hawke family that he had when they were younger but when your are the son of one of the most .mob bosses, you are by default just as bad as your surname. What he didn’t expect was to find the one person who could make his life complete.

Byron can’t stop thinking about the man he had just had a one night stand and when that person turns up for a meeting with the Hawke’s he realises just how much of a mess his life is now in. Will he reveal the truth to the people he sees as family or will he walk away from the best thing that has ever happened.

This story was so good I am sorry to see the series end but can’t wait to see what Gwyn has in store for us in the future.

The Arrangement Duet Box Set by Madison Quinn is a great contemporary romance with book one being on his terms and book two on her terms and is a wonderful read. Being a duet is a bonus as I could jump straight from book one to book two without having to miss a beat. I love these characters even though they are two mortally flawed and wounded beings and so very complex. It seems fate has set these two on the path of love but getting there is a little unconventional and fraught with the pain of the past. They are intriguing and the complexity of the two shows us the depth and passions they share that shows just how vulnerable they are. This is an unbelievably raw and emotional journey of two who find each other and make an arrangement that only they believe will work for them.

Madison has written a wonderful story that has drama and dynamics, depth and is edgy and fast paced. With the little twists that pop up gives it even a more realistic dimension. It is a wonderful read.

I found myself laughing out loud and so engrossed in the lives of these wacky characters. It is sexy and steamy and there were some tender moments that made you go ‘ah’ and others that made you go ‘what’. The story feels so realistic as we follow these crazy friends, who are family, through their lives, with all their quirks and sexy smexy innuendos, teasing and mateship, love and flaws, hope and wonder.

The one thing that meant the most to Livie is the one thing that her best enemy took with no care for her actions nor others feelings. Livie’s heart is broken when her best friend picks another over her and takes a job out of the country hoping to heal.

Secure Again: A Chase Group StorySecure Again: A Chase Group Story by R. L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Secure Again: A Chase Group Story by R.L. Dunn is another winner. It is a thrilling and enticing read that is non stop action from the start to finish. There are so many players it is a wonder that R.L. was able to keep up with them all as it was a little daunting myself but she did a masterful job. of weaving it all together to come out with a story that will have your heart pounding and your emotions on high alert. I really enjoy the Chase Group stories and love their characters. This one was a bit of a hard pill to swallow at the thought of what the evil men and women in this story were doing and I could not wait for their just deserts to be served with a side of whipped cream. It is choc-a-block full of action and danger, secrets and lies, heartache and love.

Dr. Elizabeth Reed is one strong and sassy, independent and beautiful woman but she is heartbroken. She has long suspected that things have not been right with the injuries she sees on some of her patients. When she asks questions she doesn’t realise she is now putting herself in life threatening danger. However, when doing everything she can to save a life, she comes face to face with the one person who shattered her heart.

Martin Bailey is the CEO of Chase Security International, but all that is left behind when he has a family emergency. Whilst waiting for answers he finds himself face to face with the one person who tore his heart out and stomped on it. What he finds when he gets to the hospital will require the whole of Chase Security and then some to bring the monsters to justice.

The book is extremely fast paced and will have you biting nails and on the edge of your seat. Not one to be missed.
