The Silent RoadThe Silent Road by S.N. McKibben
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I must admit when I first started reading this book I was really unsure that I was going to like one of the main characters, Dan. His attitudes at the start really annoyed me but this creative author weaved a storyline that not only keeps you interested but shows real development in Dan. It didn’t take me long to see beneath his initial attitudes and feel for him. There is just enough steamy moments to see the bond building between Dan and Jake even if Dan wants to strongly deny it. I really enjoyed this authors writing and will definitely be keeping an eye out for more books.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am well past the intended age group of readers for this wonderful book but I truly enjoyed it and can see many others enjoying it too! Zarina is a true spoilt brat at the beginning but she grows and changes over the course of the story and I think it is something that will draw young readers in and is fantastic for them to experience while captivated by this great storyline. This author is definitely going places and i for one will be keeping a watch on her future books.

Taming Brooklyn (The Club Kings Series Book 1)Taming Brooklyn by Charlotte St. Pierre
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book had me completely captivated right from the very start and proved to be so, so much more than I could have ever predicted. Brooklyn has had such a very cruel past and because of that she avoids real love and relationships then along comes the 4 Knight brothers who are bound so strongly by much more than just blood ever would. They are drawn to Brooklyn and are determined to show her what love can truly do. They will do anything they have to in order to keep her safe when her past comes back to threaten her! This was a creative storyline that had me eagerly turning page after page but what truly had me completely hooked was the amazing characters created by this extremely talented author. They weaved their way into my heart and held on tight! I can’t wait for more! There is so very much I need to know. I don’t just want to know what is going to happen for them all but I NEED to know.

Shadow (Devil's Handmaidens MC-Book Two)Shadow by D.M. Earl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadow is a total bad ass and Enforcer for the Devil’s Handmaidens MC but underneath it all there is a vulnerability mixed with true strength that Panther sees and is drawn too. Shadow doesn’t always make it easy, the demons from her past that she carries with her make that difficult but he knows what he wants and he wants her so no way is he giving up! I absolutely loved these characters and the truly creative and wonderfully written storyline created by this very talented author. I started this series on book 2 and my enjoyment was not effected in any way as it definitely can be read as a stand alone BUT I enjoyed it so much that I will be reading the first book and the rest of this amazing series as soon as I can!

Lily, the famous Rockstar and Rhys, the quiet IT guy completely weave their way into your heart in this fantastic read. After standing Lily up and being confronted by her about it, it doesn’t take Rhys too long to realise he completely misjudged her. Their attraction soon develops and is steamy to say the least! I was completely drawn into their story and wanting their relationship to succeed. The author not only created wonderful characters but a fun storyline to keep you hooked right from the very start. Do yourself a favour and get reading today!!

This truly was an intriguing and captivating read. Both the fantastic main characters, Chavez and Flynn, have secrets, past demons and an unbelievable chemistry with each other which all come together to keep you turning page after page. You simply have to know what’s next! This is the second book for this series and is where I started so I will definitely be going back and reading book 1 as well. My enjoyment of this book was not effected by not having read the first book but when an author gives us something so enjoyable why not read more!

Mission 3047Mission 3047 by Stuart Ledwith PhD
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ok I have to start by saying Science Fiction is definitely not a genre I normally go for so it took me a little while to find my groove with it but I am very glad I took a chance on something out of my automatic comfort zone with this book and this author. I enjoyed the fun characters and adventurous storyline even though the relationship or Partnership or however you want to class June and Sarge was difficult for me to wrap my head around. I guess it weirded me out because it isn’t something I could ever imagine doing but then when you think about it reading is a chance to experience things, places and adventures you normally wouldn’t right?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is such a fantastic read with great illustrations to further enhance the wonderfully written story from this very talented author. While the character names are the same as the original chicken little story, this wonderful telling takes a different, far more scientific look at chicken little at first thinking the sky is falling. I highly recommend giving this a read! I am sure it will become a favourite.

Shadow Wolf (Protector Wolf Shifter Series Book 1)Shadow Wolf by Lilliana Rose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Humans, Shifters and Vampires was all I needed to know in order to pick up this book and start reading and I am so glad that I did. This is the first book of this new series and it will leave you with a lot of questions unanswered at the end BUT this will definitely keep you intrigued and I am sure not so patiently waiting for the next book. I know I will be more than happy to return to this storyline and cast of characters because I need to know more! I have to say I was hooked and intrigued with Kodiak right from the very start. There was just something that drew me to this character while it took me a long time to come around to Tamaska. I still have mixed feelings about her but I am sure as this series continues and we learn more that I will grow to understand her more. This is also a new author for me and I am now officially a fan and looking forward to more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The story of Callie and Brandon had me hooked right from the start and I simply couldn’t put it down until the end. This truly talented author created amazing characters full of heart and weaved a captivating, relatable storyline that the reader can fully visualise while reading. Important issues were addressed with such great care. I totally fell for Brandon in the first book of this series and this book just cemented that even further. This book can definitely be read and enjoyed without having read the first book of the series but why do that when you could read both!

I am definitely a fan of this wonderful author and this book did not disappoint in any way. Dr Frank and Barbara are wonderful characters and the author created a fantastic storyline for them. Both dealing with very real life issues which I believe make them even more relatable to the reader. If reading a wonderful book with “real” characters and a HEA is what you’re after then this is the book for you!

What a fantastic book by a truly wonderfully talented author. I really enjoyed following Rae and Dean as these two remarkably strong willed and determined characters fell for each other while fighting against past hurts that they believed not only formed them but also protected them. This book is a really great read with wonderful characters, both main and side characters are well developed, vivid writing that enables you to completely envision the world they live in and a creative storyline to keep you reading page after page! It’s a fantastic start to what I am sure will be a fabulous series! Bring on the next book I say!!

Frozen by Lies (Sleigh Riders #1)Frozen by Lies by Martha Sweeney
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When it first started this book it had me intrigued but it did take me a little while to get fully into the story completely but once I did I enjoyed it. Just remember just because I took my time it won’t mean you will too. We are all different after all.
Noelle Frost and Nikolaus Klaus are great characters with fun back and forth banter who I really enjoyed. When they first met and her family was so over bearing I wanted to yell at them myself Lol. They are basically bikers from rival clans with obvious attraction to each other and her family absolutely hate that!! Eventually though their attraction becomes so much more. With so many secrets all around them its inevitable that their path is not a smooth one. I don’t want to say too much about the actual storyline as I know I would just give way too much away. You need to read this for yourself. I will definitely be returning for more!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved returning to Buckeye Falls and reading the story of CeCe and Evan. This author has created a gorgeous town filled with wonderful characters that I really hope I get to read about over and over again. CeCe is very much shaped by moments of her past and even though her attraction to Evan is strong she is very hesitant to break her no dating co workers rule! Meanwhile Evan is being the perfect friend all while wanting so much more! Their story is heartfelt, wonderful and should not be missed! I can’t wait to go back to Buckeye Falls to see what is in store next!

Wow I really enjoyed reading this book which is a fun start to what I just know is going to be a fantastic series from this truly talented and creative author. The characters are fun, relatable and full of heart. Just the way I like them LOL. There is plenty of steamy moments that add to the fun and romance of the story without being it’s main focus. The main characters, Cash and Hollis, totally weaved their way into my heart right from the start and I just had to keep reading to see where the storyline was going to take them. The author has definitely created plenty of interest and intrigue about the other characters to have you wanting to come back for more as well. I can’t wait to return to Blue Bigfoot Beer to see what’s instore for them all next!!

OMG I don’t think I can honestly come up with the right words to describe exactly how damn AMAZING this book is or how much I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! Sorry I know I am shouting but I just don’t know what else to do! 5 Stars just isn’t a high enough rating. I read the Prequel to this book and was not so patiently awaiting for the rest of the story. I just knew it had to be amazing and it in no way disappointed! I was completely hooked from the very first sentence until the very last word and I stayed up half the night to finish it because I simply could not Put it down. The chemistry between Issac and Mina (Jack) is indescribable and right from the start you want everything to work out for them. There are some great twists in the storyline that will keep you turning page after page and all the characters will tunnel into your heart. I can’t wait for more from this truly amazing series and this extremely talented and creative author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have to say this book had me hooked right from the very start! This author creates such wonderful storylines and characters you just can’t resist them. With such fantastic writing it is so easy to imagine the people and places she describes. I think my heart also engages because as a fellow Aussie I know the places she mentions and it just gives me the warm fuzzies LOL.
It is so easy to see that Ryan and Grace are meant to be together if only they’d get out of their own way! Moments in their pasts have made them both create different walls around themselves in order to feel protected from what life may throw at them. While trying to work out who is out to try and take Graces family farm they both little by little chip away at those walls and learn more and more not only about each other but also about themselves.

I highly recommend this wonderful book especially for young teen readers. I had to remind myself a few times that I am way older than the target audience but at the same time I still really enjoyed it. The authors writing style and very vivid descriptions draw you straight into the story and she expresses and handles the elements of a teen life, for example feelings, in a very understanding and completely relatable way.

I will be completely honest and say that at the start of this book I struggled to fully immersed myself in the story. I think I just needed time to get use to this authors particular writing style. I am glad that I did stick with it and continue to read because I did end up wanting to see where the characters would end up and where lifes journey would take them. There is a definite twist at the end that I so did not see coming and leaves the reader wanting more.

I am sure I have mentioned before in my other reviews that I am not usually a fan of shorter stories But this truly talented author manages to pack so much story and character development into her books that it could be any length at all and you would be left with nothing but good vibes from the story and this author. The change of perspective that Cutter goes through was so well done that he truly captivates you all the way through and the real world issues addressed make this a read well worth your time!
