My rating: 4 of 5 stars

At Happily Ever After Bookstore, you come for a book but you get a Happily Ever After with it. Sometimes that happy ever after is in the book you’ve purchased, other times, you might just find it with someone else. Leona loves helping her customers find the perfect book, but when possible she might meddle a little more and help them find something they were missing.

When Sadie comes in looking for a Christmas Romance, Leona points her in the right direction. While looking for the perfect book, she bumps into Charlie. After both have selected their books, paid and left, they soon discover that Leona has mixed up their books! Now, on the hunt to find one another, they find themselves in the midst of match making and a holiday miracle starts to happen.

Sadie and Charlie aren’t the only ones who are finding their Happy Ever After from the bookstore either! When Fiona moves to town, she’s planning on starting over years after her divorce. When Leona discovers that both Fiona and her ex-husband Price are in the same town, she uses her skills to get them alone together. After all, it’s obvious there is unfinished business there.

Just when Leona thinks she’ll never find her happily ever after, something goes wrong with the bookstore and Jon Ford, handyman, enters to help fix it up. In no time, Leona starts to believe he could be her happily ever after but then finds out it’s more than just him she’s getting into. Is she ready to live a man and his kids with her whole being?

I loved this books set up and idea! The author does a wonderful job creating her characters and helping the reader see them fall in love. I only wish that it had been more interspersed or that each set of characters had their own book with more detail in it. The way this is set up gives more of a short story feel, which leaves me craving more.

Happily Ever After Bookstore definitely makes you believe in the magic of a good book and I’m curious to see if we get anymore of the happy ever afters that Leona has, or will, play a part in. Great writing, great premise and I can’t wait to see what’s next!

Levi (The Brothers of Creekside Ranch Book 1) by Edith Mackenzie

Levi is the first book in The Creekside Ranch series and a Cowboy Romance that I truly enjoyed reading. This is a fairly new author to me and I look forward to seeing what other books she has written. This is a fast paced short story that I read in one sitting because I had to know what was going to happen next. The characters are relatable and fully developed and easy to fall in love with. The storyline flowed so well that I felt like I was apart of the story. This is a wonderfully written story about Levi and Bella. These two couldn’t be more opposite from one another but you’ve heard the saying “Opposites Attract”. One thing these two do have in common is the one thing that is keeping them from finding love and happiness. The chemistry between these two is definitely there. Find out what happens next with these .i highly recommend reading this book. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

I just really enjoyed this book from beginning to end I have never read this author before but I will read more of her books in the future. This book is about 3 different couples that come into the bookstore and find love one of the couples is the owner of the bookstore who enjoys getting people together.
Each couple has their own unique story to tell and I enjoyed reading about them all. I just love bookstores and finding love and I thought this author did such a good job of making it magical.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is another cute story in the continuing Mermaid Science Story. I love how once again the author has managed to introduce a new scientific experiment into the story while also making it interesting as well. While this one isn’t my favorite of the series, I did thoroughly enjoy it. I love the use of the mermaid but just hate that both characters can’t see her. That’s the reason one of the characters believes it is made up. I feel that it would be a nice inclusion for all the characters to be able to see her. Once again the illustrations are beautiful and eye catching. I am sure that your kids will love this. And not to mention, it’s a great way to include another science experiment into your home.

What a great story about Sol and Ember. Ember just beginning and Sol in ending his career. These two had quite an obstacle to overcome if their relationship was to go anywhere.
I liked both of these characters from the beginning I thought they were exactly what the other needed. The chemistry was off the charts but it was fitting with what they both loved.

The Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass (Mermaid Science, #3)The Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Maia, Fig, and Trezzie are teaching science again! This trio does a great job in such a simple way. However, Fig isn’t able to see Trezzie so things just seem to happen in front of her. Trezzie brings them a treasure that has a pattern on it but they can’t see it. With the help of a plastic box, they finally discovered that they had a trilobite, which is a fossil. The plastic box, along with some water, acted as a magnifying glass to help them see what they were holding.

I love this series and how it’s teaching simple lessons about science!! These are great books to share with your kids and grandkids. They would be great in a homeschooling environment as well.

Ballet School Rumours: An Amberwood Hall Ballet School AdventureBallet School Rumours: An Amberwood Hall Ballet School Adventure by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When Lauren’s friend Katie starts a gossip wall for the school online magazine, posts pour in about the possibility of supernatural presences at Amberwood Hall. Classmate Alfie is determined to root out the spirits, and Lauren worries for her ghost friends, Grace and Rodney. But when rehearsals start for the House Choreographics Cup, the rumors take on a more sinister turn and Lauren faces losing her best friend if she can’t find who is behind the wicked whispers.
This is the first book that I have read from this author, and it is also the third book in the series. I recommend reading the first two books before reading this one, so you will get the backstory and will understand what’s going on. But this book was amazing, and I do recommend everyone to read this series. The characters were wonderfully written, the plot is amazing also.

One In A Billion (Pierce Brothers, #3)One In A Billion by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the Pierce Brothers series. Again, I was not disappointed. I’ve just fallen in love with this entire series. Mrs. Belinda Williams is an amazing writer. If you are anything like me, then you are a sucker for a good romance book, and this is the one for you. The plot was amazing, along with the characters. I love books where I can see and feel everything the character are at that moment. It’s a rare talent and its greatly appreciated when I’m able to experience a book like that.
Victoria Verity is on a deadline. Soon she’ll be thirty and out of a job unless she can turn her journalism career around by gaining an exclusive interview with Australia’s newest tech billionaire. Except there’s one small hitch—he’s notoriously private.
Seth Pierce hates people making a big deal about his billionaire status, but he knows it’s time to appoint a media adviser. When the perfect candidate walks into his office for all the wrong reasons, Seth is determined to make her an offer she can’t refuse.
Victoria will do anything to land the story, but she draws the line at mixing business with pleasure. Only she’s about to discover that billionaires don’t give up easily. Especially when they’ve found something—or someone—they want . . .

This is the second book in the Pierce Brother’s series, and I was not disappointed. This book can be read as a standalone also. The author’s way of writing is adorable, and I love it. I was not able to put the book down, i had to read the entire thing in one sitting. This book had me hooked from the very first page to the last page. This is an amazing and adorable story. If you’re a romance geek like I am, then this is the story for you.
A SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE IS NO LAUGHING MATTER
Nadia Alvarez likes men, but not relationships. Love she can definitely do without. What she really needs is a builder to rescue her fixer-upper house that’s threatening to fall down, and she’s desperate enough to hire a man she’d vowed never to see again.

Divorced father, Luke Pierce, takes life seriously. He’s never forgotten the dark-haired beauty he’d fallen hard for during an uncharacteristic one-night stand, but Nadia makes it perfectly clear that sweeping their past under the rug is a requirement of the job.
The only problem is Nadia’s wicked sense of humor. Getting Luke to let his guard down and see the fun side of life is becoming a pastime for Nadia. If she’s not careful, he’ll fall harder for her than he did before. And this time he might take her with him . . . no matter what her opinion on love may be.
I’m excited to see what else this author has instore for this series.

This book had so much to offer I’m not sure I know where to start. This book was definitely a slow burn full of love, heartbreak, friendships and more. While I have only read a couple of books from this author, she is quickly becoming one of my favorites. When I first saw the cover to this book I knew that I wanted to read it right away, the cover had bright colors and was absolutely beautiful, and not to mention I just love a book where the title comes full circle. The characters were well developed, the plot was wonderful, and the overall story was amazing. So if your looking for a great new slow burn make sure you pick this one up today.

NICE GUYS CAN PLAY DIRTY TOO . . .
This is the first book that I have read from Mrs. Belinda Williams, and I honestly really liked the book. Her way of writing is amazing, and the plot of the story had sucked me in immediately from the very first page and the last page of the book. I was not able to put the book down until I had finished the entire thing in one sitting. The characters were amazing, and I was able to see and feel everything they were.
‘Give me a week. Seven days and seven nights. I’ll show you what it’s like to be with a nice guy.’
Chelsea’s housemate Tom is tired of her complaining about her boyfriends. Arrogant, sexy, irresistible, bad boys are basically Chelsea’s M.O.
Pretty much everything that Tom is not. He’s dependable and sweet. He’s also kind of hot in a cute, unthreatening way. His offer surprises Chelsea. He’s right . . . she’s never really given a nice guy a chance before. And now she’s curious. Hell, it might even be fun.
There’s just one rule: this isn’t a friend with benefits arrangement. Except Chelsea never imagined nice guys could play so dirty
I’m excited to see what she has in store for this series.

Maia, Fig and Trizzie the mermaid, are once again found at the water’s edge. Exploring the wonderful world of Science. I love reading books to children that are more than just a story. In this story the children will read and go hands on with this project. There is a big difference between hearing and seeing something done. This author has once again impressed me with her writing skills. Including the breakdown to make the project. The story is fast paced and intriguing. It will keep your little reader reading. I highly recommend this children’s book, and hope you work along with your child.

I really enjoyed this sweet romance. The author does an amazing job with the characters giving them a depth that makes them relatable and allows the readers to really feel the feelings and emotions they go through. The connection between the characters is instant with Destiny already being a fan of Nicco.

This is a great read that keeps you hooked wondering will they get it together or won’t they.

The Cave of Rúin Ársa (The Cross of Ciaran Book 3) by Andrea Matthews. This is such a good series. I do recommend reading the previous 2 books to better understand what is going on. Ciaran is still struggling with bad dreams while he is trying to put his life back together. Especially since his wife is pregnant with twins he has to get stuff situated. Aodhan is planning his own wedding but he’s still trying to help his brother get his life back. The dreams are causing Ciaran to have major anxiety for his unborn twins and his wife. The dreams are telling him that a long dead priest, Ruadhan who had entombed him 1500 years before is now threatening to kidnap his unborn twins. His wife Caitlin is trying to tell him it is just his insecurities on becoming a new dad. When his brother finds a empty tomb they begin to really panic. Will Ciaran’s insecurities ruin his new marriage and the chance to get on with his life? The author paints such a vivid picture in these books that you truly feel like you are there. I highly recommend this wonderful series.

Someone Exactly Like Me (Wounded Hearts, #1)Someone Exactly Like Me by Debbie Cromack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an entertaining and enjoyable contemporary romance, with a friends to lovers theme and a slow burn romance between two soul mates. The main characters are, Destiny a romance author with writers block and Niccolo a sexy Italian film star who has just found fame. Niccolo offers Destiny a deal, one which she probably should not have agreed to, but she did, and now she’s finding that she’s spending a lot of time with Niccolo, alone, under the same roof. Although Destiny is thinking of ways she can get out of the deal, she’s also enjoying spending time with the film star, and heart throb, but given his reputation she’s wary. However, the couple can not deny their instant chemistry, undeniable attraction and growing connection. This was a heartwarming romance between two very likeable and relatable characters who were so well defined I felt as though I knew them. I felt engaged with the couple and wanted them to get their HEA. I was immersed in the storyline which flowed well, and kept me happily turning the pages. It was a great read and gave me a real feel good factor.

Someone Exactly Like Me (Wounded Hearts, #1)Someone Exactly Like Me by Debbie Cromack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’ve always been a firm believer that everyone crosses our paths for a reason. If it be brief and/or forever. Which leads me to my next two questions: Have you ever made a deal with someone and regretted it the next day? Was alcohol involved? I’ve been there, what about you? Someone Exactly Like Me starts exactly like that. A sweet tiptoe around each other friendship/romance novel. It also makes me wonder if that’s why the author named the female lead Destiny. Soulmates and destiny go hand in hand if you believe in that stuff, so it definitely fits.
Niccolo Mancini, an Italian model/singer/actor, has been the star of Destiny’s fantasies since she saw Don Matteo. Never in a million years did she think she would come face to face with him, on her thirtieth birthday no less. Destiny, a romance novelist, has been in a writer’s slump the last few years, that is until Nicco. He’s awakened something in her and she just has to keep going.
Nicco can’t keep his eyes off of her, but he knows deep down he’s all wrong for her. He still approaches her anyway. Never expecting this breath of fresh air to call him out on his antics. Which gives him an idea, he offers to be the star of her next novel, if she puts him in touch with her mom for help breaking into the Hollywood celebrity scene.
And that is where the story takes off on an adventure of my fantasies. I would like to hope for yours as well. Who wouldn’t want to go on an adventure showing an Italian actor around where you grew up. The growth of these characters during this adventure is beautiful. They are both stubborn and set in their ways. However they also crumbled each other’s barrier walls around their hearts. A well written dynamic for anyone to enjoy.

He got a call to help a friend “hide” someone. Voila, he had a new nanny. Bella, not a regular nanny, grew into the job while hiding out. A romance grew but would it last? What would happen to Levi’s sister? Oh, you’ll have to read it to find out, cause I’m not telling. You’ll enjoy it. I loved the book. The plot is fabulous with a twist or two. The characters are uniquely written. You feel the emotion in the story. It makes for a memorable book. Highly recommend.

Notebook Mysteries ~ Emma (Notebook Mysteries Book 1) Audio Book by Kimberly Mullins – Review by Shelly Kittell

Outstanding Story

Emma is an exciting story based in 1881,. She is a young girl that gets herself involved in mysteries and adventures that she probably shouldn’t. But hey, she’s an adventurous, brave and courageous young girl that enjoys solving problems. The story is well-written and full of mystery and suspense. It’s even full of good sounding food. The mystery focuses around a bakery so there are recipes for some yummy deserts. Emma introduces us to her friends that will help her solve the mystery. This is a fun and quick listen for a teen. The narration is okay. I do wish there could have been a little more variety to the voice. The narration was a tad monotone. Overall, it was a good experience and I do recommend this for your teen/youth age group. Fun book that I enjoyed.

Destiny is a romance author suffering writer’s block. Nicco is a fantastic romance actor. These two are brought together by Destiny’s childhood friend, Cindy. This was a beautiful romance story because it gave the glimpse of the realistic struggle of the relationship. It was a little slow at the beginning; hence, the slow burn, but the action soon picked up. The characters felt real. You felt their pain, their love for each other. You felt every emotion they went through. This is a book that slowly pulls you in and you find that you just can’t stop. You will want to follow Nicco and Destiny’s story. The plot runs smooth with a twist or two, love it! I can’t tell anymore, you’ll have to read it. It’s so worth it.

This is the second book I have read by this author and I enjoyed every minute of it. I like Debbie’s writing style.

Someone Exactly Like Me is the first book in this series and is a slow burn, friends to lovers’ story. I loved the characters and their dynamics. The relationships between brothers and best friends. The story is heartfelt story and sweet journey. There is angst, heartbreak, love, friendships, insecurities and struggles, passion and anticipation, and sexual tension.

I love Nicco and Destiny their story is both heartbreaking and heat warming. It is emotionally raw at times and the characters are realistic and flawed, A deal is struck between a playboy and author no strings attached. Neither are looking for romance until feelings start evolving.

I look forward to more in the future.

The Cave of Rúin Ársa is the third book in The Cross of Ciarán. I truly enjoyed reading this book just as much as the first two books. I highly recommend reading them if you haven’t already started them. One of my favorite things about this author is her ability to pull you in and make you feel as if you are right there with them and you get lost in the pages. This is a fast paced story that is packed with adventure, time travel, secrets and so much much more. The twists and turns had me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what was going to happen next. Get ready to be taken on a adventure one that involves family and could turn deadly. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Witch Indeed (Mackenzie Coven Mystery #2)Witch Indeed by Sonia Parin
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lol Witch Indeed is the second book in the series and picks up where Witch Inheritance left off. Lexie has a new companion as you would expect, a cat named Luna. Reading the shenanigans that these two encounter and the extent of their back-and-forth spirited rivalry will make you laugh out loud and have a smile on your face the entire time. Lexie is slowly discovering what it means to be a witch and learning new parts of it. She still hasn’t embraced it fully, but that doesn’t stop her from diving in head first. I enjoyed the addition of Luna and seeing how she added to the plot. It was nice to get a glimpse of Morg (Lexie’s mom) and I have a feeling there is a lot of history there that will come in future books. This story had humor, Witchery, and some mystery. I like the concept of the books, but am hoping that the mystery aspect gets a little bigger role. I feel like each story is missing that suspense/cozy mystery hook I was expecting. Overall, it’s a great series so far that I plan to continue to read.
