Violet Blood (Murder in Savannah, #4) by Lindsay Marie Miller – Review by Jenni Bishop

Violet Blood (Murder in Savannah, #4)Violet Blood by Lindsay Marie Miller
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Violet Blood (Murder in Savannah Book 4) by Lindsay Marie Miller ​is the final book in the series. This series should be read in order so you understand the back story and all the characters involved. I have been looking forward to reading this the final story and Lindsay didn’t let us down. The writing and the pace of the story flow easily and nd we have watched the characters grow both as individuals and together as they have fought their way through all that has been thrown at them. All the lies and deceit, the twists and turns and the mystery and mayhem have made them so much stronger together.

It’s a little sad to say goodbye to these characters as we have been through so much together but everything must come to an end and Lindsay ended it well.

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow #2)Cold Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow Novel Book 2) by India Kells is a real page turner and the chaos start from the very beginning. ​We are thrown into a world where power and money mean more than blood. Where a monster will get what he wants and doesn’t care who or what he destroys to get there. The mystery and intrigue will keep you on the edge of your seat and with all the twists and turns you don’t see what’s coming.

India has lead us through a world where suspense and danger are the name of the game. Where secrets and lies could ruin it all. Where monsters lurk and cause havoc. Where love is is found in the unlikely of circumstances.

What would you do to keep all those you love safe?

Secret's Kiss (Securities International #4)Secret’s Kiss by E.M. Shue
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Secret’s Kiss: Securities International by E.M. Shue is the fourth book in the series and really enjoyed it. It can be read as a stand alone or as part of the series. I love the fact that it is also written in each of the characters POV. This is my first book that I have read from E.M. and I look forward to going back to the start of the series and reading more. The story flows nicely and keeps you captivated right the way through. There is so much contained in this story that you can’t put it down because you just have to know what is going to happen. E.M.’s words will hook you as you navigate through the action and suspense, thrills and fear and the passion and love and oh, let’s not forget those sizzling sexy moments. The characters are interesting and each of them have depth to make you want to know more.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wine Thief is the fifth book in the Resort Romances series by Mary Billiter and my  favourite so far. Even though it is part of a series it can be read as a standalone. I really  enjoy reading Mary’s books as she is a natural storyteller and her words just flow from  the page. The story is engaging and the characters are natural and you walk the walk  with them every inch of the way. The Wine Thief is fun and witty, romantic and sweet  with a good storyline.     Who is the Wine Thief and can they unravel the mystery behind them?    Find a quiet spot and enjoy the read.

It Will Always Be UsIt Will Always Be Us by Theresa Sederholt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Will Always Be Us is the third book in the Fitz Series by Theresa Sederholt who has  written a very clever and complex story that is as thrilling as it is suspenseful. The  story is told from multiple points of view that adds to the dynamics of the mystery and  drama. This intriguing story had me enthralled right from word go. There are so many  pieces to the puzzle to put together to make it a cohesive tale which Theresa does so  well. The story starts with secrets and lies, betrayal and hurt, that leads to danger and  mayhem. As you navigate all the twists and turns you come upon some very surprising  developments that you just don’t see coming. This is a very emotionally charged story  so recommend a good stiff drink on standby as you watch this mystery unfold.     I can’t wait for the next book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holding on to Hurt: A gripping story about a mother’s love by Charlotte Roth absolutely broke my heart, to the point I was sobbing. My heart ached for the torture that this family went through. Charlotte has written and outstanding story of one Mother’s fight for her son which no mother should have to endure. The struggle, the pain, the grief, the hope and the courage leave you an emotional wreck. It also raises the controversial issue of guns that many talk, fight and argue over and are either on one side or the other.

It is very thought provoking story that should not be missed but be warned a box or two of tissues is needed..

Realising keeping her fate to herself is the only way to keep those she loves safe.

Game Hunter by Mark Kloss is a fun read. At first I was hesitant because I thought the Zombie genre had been done to death with them being brain dead, shuffling, rotting corpses but Mark has done a good job of putting a new spin on things and his writing lets you have a laugh. Thinking and intelligent Zombies, who would have thunk it possible. This book is fast paced and there is full steam ahead non-stop action throughout most of the book and at times it was a little repetitive but it keeps you intrigued. The story is definitely an easy to read and entertaining and most of the characters are well written, others seem a little over the top. Just when you think you have everyone and everything figured out, Mark throws in another little twist.
