Colors of Darkness: Ability Awareness Activity BookColors of Darkness: Ability Awareness Activity Book by Feather Chelle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is such a lovely book. The poems are absolutely beautiful. It is extremely informative, but not in a boring textbook way. It has several activities in it as well, making learning more fun. This book is perfect for young kids to learn about people with disabilities in a way that they can better understand some of the struggles they face daily. It is also great for older kids and adults as well. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I have read from this author. This is book 5 of the Reigning Hearts series, but can be read as a standalone. It is a short and sweet Christmas story with all the feels. It’s about a single dad (Gio) and the town grinch (Amber). Can Amber move on from her past and finally enjoy a Christmas and let herself be happy? I will definitely be reading the rest of this series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a new author for me and I’m excited to see what else she’s written. I absolutely LOVE psychological thrillers and this one is perfection! I read it in one sitting. It has so many twists and turns to keep you on your toes and guessing. This story has a way of pulling you in and not letting you go until the very end. This is definitely one of my favorite books this year!

Born in Darkness (Mafia Elite #3)Born in Darkness by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book! This author is quickly becoming one of my favorites. This can be read as a standalone but is book 3 in the Mafia Elite series. If you haven’t read the first two I highly recommend it, they are wonderful. This one is my favorite of the series so far. This is Emiliana and Stefano’s story. Em is the absolute perfect heroine! I have nothing but good things to say about this series and the author. Get these books, you’ll love them too!

Priscida Finds Greatness by Constance Mays – Review by Jenny See

Priscida Finds Greatness: In Herself and in OthersPriscida Finds Greatness: In Herself and in Others by Constance Mays
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is one of the best children’s books that I’ve read. The artwork is awesome. The story is one that every child (and adult) can relate to. It teaches that it’s the little things that matter the most. It also helps teach self-worth, and that everyone is special. I recommend this book to absolutely everyone for a fun, heartwarming read.

Mom, Is There a Santa Claus? by Susan J Berger Illustrator: KC Snider – Review by Jenny See

Mom, Is There a Santa Claus?Mom, Is There a Santa Claus? by Susan J. Berger
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is by far the best Christmas story I’ve ever read! It addresses the infamous question of “Is Santa real?” but in a way that doesn’t come right out and say no. This is a heartwarming story story about the magic of Christmas and keeping the magic alive for those around us. I will definitely be reading this to all the kids in my life every year. This is a perfect story for those young kids wanting to know if Santa is real; it explains it perfectly!

Broken Chains by Karina Kantas – Review by Jenny See

Broken ChainsBroken Chains by Karina Kantas
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is my first book by this author so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But I liked it. This book has a little bit of everything; secret service, mafia, romance, action, and brutality. It was a good story that starts a little slow, but when it gets going it’s a page turner! Heads up if you have any triggers though, this book may not be for you.

Conveniently Yours (Titans Of Manhattan BOOK 1) by Anise Storm – Review by Jenny See

Conveniently Yours (Titans Of Manhattan #1)Conveniently Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book 1 of the Titans of Manhattan series. It’s a story about a marriage of convenience. Caspian has to get and stay married for one year in order to inherit his family’s company that he has worked hard at for years. Paisley is a down on her luck artist whose mother was in a horrific car accident and left in a coma. Caspian and Paisley knew each other as kids and when they run into one another to catch up Caspian proposes the idea of a marriage of convenience that will help him to get his company and her to get her mom’s medical bills covered as well as a million dollars after it’s over. Paisley did the only thing she could do to help her mom… she accepted. Can they make it through the year, will they develop feelings for one another, or will everything go as planned? I found it slightly repetitive and a little slow at times but it has a beautiful story and would definitely recommend it. I will definitely be reading the next book of this series when it comes out!

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, book 1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Jenny See

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, #1)No Way Out by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I don’t even know where to start… this is a perfect Mafia romance book. The story is spectacular. It has a little bit of everything you could want in a Mafia romance plus some. I like that the author has the family trees at the beginning of the book, it’s very helpful. The characters are awesome. I want to be friends with Liliana, Sophia, and Emiliana (who are Mafia Princesses); they take this story from good to great. This is Liliana’s story, of how she breaks free from the world she’s trapped in and finds love along the way with Max. Max fell in love with Lil before he had even met her, and he’ll do anything to keep her safe. Now… on to Mafia Elite Book 2: Blood Oath.

A Sweet ChristmasA Sweet Christmas by Nicole Richard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book! It’s a feel good Christmas story. The food sounds delicious; I wish the author would have added recipes, but I’ll be looking a few of them up. This story has great, realistic characters that you can’t help but to fall in love with. If you like Hallmark Christmas movies (and who doesn’t) then this book is definitely for you! I can’t wait until the next one!

Blood Oath (Mafia Elite, #2)Blood Oath by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amy McKinley has done it again! This book is absolutely fabulous! This is book 2 of the Mafia Elite Series, but can be read as a standalone. I recommend reading the first book because it’s great and gives you more perspective. This book focuses on Sophia and Enzo. They have obstacles to overcome, but their love is strong. I love this series so far and cannot wait for book 3!

Christmas Cookies on a Cruise Ship (The Perfect Pairing Series Book 1) by Parker Fairchild – Review by Jenny See

Christmas Cookies on a Cruise Ship (The Perfect Pairings Series Book 1)Christmas Cookies on a Cruise Ship by Parker Fairchild
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Olivia is shy, insecure, and tired of living in her twin sister’s shadow (who is a supermodel). After Olivia caught her boyfriend cheating on her with her sister, and they get engaged, she decides to take a cruise for Christmas instead of having to endure it with the new couple and the rest of her family. Jace is taking a cruise with some of his Navy Buddies to go to a wedding. Olivia is a scientist who is also an aspiring novelist, and is writing one about her true love, a man named Jace Morse. At first he seems too good to be true, and they start to fall in love. Olivia finds herself with help of new friends and works on having a better relationship with sister.
I can’t wait until book 2 comes out! I loved this book. It was cute, funny, cheesy, and romantic. If you like Hallmark Christmas movies you will love this book! The only negative thing I can say about this book (and why it’s only 4 stars) is Olivia is too childish, she drove me absolutely crazy! She did seem to have grown up a little by the end of the book, so hopefully the next one will be 5 stars.

Still Taking Chances by Roz Lee – Review by Jenny See

Still Taking ChancesStill Taking Chances by Roz Lee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Elgin has some hang ups in his life and is trying to overcome them. Mary Beth helps Elgin to overcome his issues by dominating him. This is a new author to me but I will definitely be reading more! This is a different kind of Dom/Sub book than most out there. It is erotic yet emotional as well. I really enjoyed the story and would definitely recommend it to those who like BDSM and are looking for a different angle of it.

Caught in Midnight Shadows (The Caught Series Book 4) by Sharleen Scott – Review by Jenny See

Caught in Midnight Shadows (Caught series, #4)Caught in Midnight Shadows by Sharleen Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a new author for me, and I haven’t read books 1-3 in series, but you don’t need to as it can be read as a standalone. Brant is a rancher from Wyoming who has been going through a hard time. Someone has been hurting his ranch, killed his mom and is after his family. He heads to Oregon to find a man from his mom’s will and comes across Aubrey. Aubrey just lost the woman who raised her and is getting ready to head out in a solo road trip that’s she’s been planning for a while. Can Brant convince Aubrey that he and his family are worth being tied down to? Can Brant find out who’s been out to hurt him and his family? This was a great story that was slightly predictable but not too much. I really enjoyed this book and will be going back to read the first three books of this series that I skipped. If you like romance with some action and mystery thrown in then this book is for you!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first book by this author and OMG I LOVED it! This can be read as a standalone but is the second book of the Parker Lake Series. I will definitely be reading the rest of this series. I can’t wait to learn the other character’s story’s. Breckin has a crappy ex husband who wronged her in an embarrassing way, so she has a little bit of trust issues. Griff lost the love of his life and can’t seem to move on. Can they both work out their issues and be together? I promise you’ll enjoy this story. Griff’s Meemaw is one of the most hilarious characters I’ve read in a long time. I absolutely LOVE her!

Spoilsport (Pierce Brothers Book 2) by Belinda Williams – Review by Jenny See

Spoilsport (Pierce Brothers, #2)Spoilsport by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book deserves more than 5 stars! This is the perfect contemporary romance. It is hilarious yet heartfelt. Spoilsport can be read as a standalone but is book 2 in the Pierce Brothers Series. You don’t need to read book 1 (Mr. Nice Guy) but I recommend it. I absolutely loved getting to know Luke and Nadia’s story but also catching up with Tom and Chelsea from Book 1. Luke is a single dad with a big heart, who’s ex-wife gives him a hard time. Nadia is a nurse who doesn’t believe in love because of her parents failed marriage. Esme (Luke’s daughter) is my new favorite character, she is an awesome kid and helps the story in so many ways. I can’t wait until the other two books of this series come out! Seth’s story will be released in 2022.

The Groomsman (Unexpected Series-Book 2) by Marina Hanna – Review by Jenny See

The GroomsmanThe Groomsman by Marina Hanna
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by Marina Hanna and it definitely won’t be my last! The Groomsman (Book 2 of the Unexpected Series) is a sweet contemporary romance with all the feels and easily pulls you in. Lauren and Mark have some major chemistry but they both have some issues to work out. This book is a standalone book although some of the characters can be found in Book 1 of the Unexpected Series: Love Unexpected (which i’ll be reading next). All the characters in this story are relatable and real, which I enjoy in a good book. I love that Lauren isn’t some damsel in distress type of heroine; she is a strong, independent, take no crap woman and I adore her. Read this book you won’t regret it!
