Gumshoe And The Mysterious Mushrooms (Gumshoe Mysteries Book 1) by Laura Hawks – Review by Jenni Bishop

Gumshoe And The Mysterious Mushrooms (Gumshoe Mysteries Book 1)Gumshoe And The Mysterious Mushrooms by Laura Hawks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gumshoe And The Mysterious Mushrooms (Gumshoe Mysteries Book 1) by Laura Hawks is a YA story that is a little fun and mysterious. It is also the first book in this series. It is an original storyline that will get you turning those pages having to find out how it ends. I went in blind and I must say I was pleasantly surprised and the crazy talking cat with attitude just made the story. I need me one of those. I laughed found the entire thing so refreshing. Well done Laura, you have a winner on your hands.

Mia’s life is turned upside down in one night. Everything her family had dreamed of was about to be taken away and a scaredy cat has turned up on her doorstep.

Gumshoe the cat takes centre stage with his wicked sense of humour and helps Mia try to solve the mystery that threatens everything she love.

I really enjoyed this action filled adventure and will be looking forward to what Laura has instore for Gumshoe and his trusty sidekick.

A Deal with Death (Crescent City Wolf Pack #4) by Carrie Pulkinen

5 out of 5 stars
A deal with death is the fourth book in the Crescent City Wolf pack written by Carrie Pulkinen is a great book that goes with a great series. I have read all four books in this series and they just get better with each book. The characters are great with quirky personalities but they needed this for their quest to solve the puzzle.
Voodoo practitioner Odette Allemand, isn’t scared of death but dying sure as hell does. And every time she meets her soul mate, her life ends in a horrific murder. Then she’s reincarnated to have it happen all over again. She is determined to survive this lifetime, so she has closed herself off to her powers and spirit
But when James Malveaux a sexy werewolf knocks on her door, he unearths emotions she thought she’d buried, now her fate is sealed with his enticing kiss. He hasn’t seen her since junior high, but the moment they reunite, his wolf wants to claim her as his mate.
Now that they have reconnected they have awakened the monster and hope it doesn’t kill them before they get a chance to kill it first.
Will James make peace with his wolf and accept Odette? Can he help Odette make peace with her inner demons and the Spirit? Or will the couple be doomed to the same gruesome ending as their countless lives before?
I highly recommend this book/series…

Children Of The Future by Jane Suen – Review by Jenni Bishop

Children Of The FutureChildren Of The Future by Jane Suen
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Children Of The Future by Jane Suen was not what I expected and the premise of the story was ok but it didn’t hit its mark with me but it is aimed with YA’s in mind. It is a YA suspense that is a quick and easy read. I note this was her first book and her writing has vastly improved with the other books I have read of hers. I found it hard to read due to the narrative but that is more my personal preference. There is a lot that I feel Jane could have written to make it even more suspenseful and give the story and characters more substance. The story starts off slow but then picks up and gains momentum but then it just stops, where I am left wondering what just happened.

Even though it wasn’t enough for me, I am sure others will enjoy it.

The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Brass CompassThe Brass Compass by Ellen Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler is an historical fiction story. The story is told in both the past and present which gives it a certain mysterious quality. It is also a spy thriller and holds a lot of history. Our female lead is strong and is on a journey that is dangerous and I found myself getting lost in the storyline.

Lily Saint James is an agent and secretly gathers information for the Allies. She is a very smart lady who is very stubborn and is fierce determined. Even when things go wrong and she has to flee she is determined to see it through, a race to save herself and get the information through.

This is a story that I recommend reading.

Murder Creek by Jane Suen – Review by Jenni Bishop

Murder CreekMurder Creek by Jane Suen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Murder Creek by Jane Suen is an intriging mystery that keeps you guessing until the very end. Jane has done a great job at building the plot and the suspense that keeps you trying to put the pieces together. The story is told in the main characters POV as she is on the path to finding the truth of a mystery that surrounds Murder Creek.

Eve Sawyer wants to be a journalist, so when she stumbles across Murder Creek she knows she has to find the truth and what happened to Lacey Walken. This journey takes her to meet many people and find many clues but what she finds was far from what she expected.

I definitely recommended to all mystery fans.

A Deal with Death (Crescent City Wolf Pack, #4)A Deal with Death by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A Deal With Death is the fourth novel in the Crescent City Wolf Pack series by Carrie Pulkinen. This is my fourth novel by this author.

Odette Allemand is a woman who doesn’t fear death since she practices Voodoo. She also gets reincarnated after she dies whenever she meets her soulmate. Not wanting to die this time, she is sure she can beat the cycle.

James Malveaux is werewolf who hasn’t seen Odette in years but once the two meet again, his wolf wants to claim her as his mate.

Can the two change fate and have a happy life together?

This is my favorite of the series so far. The premise was different than anything I’ve read before and the romance between the two felt refreshing and different because of that.

I loved the main character’s name because it was unique and it made me think of the Swan Princess movie.

I hope there is another novel in this series soon.

Steele Resolve by Gwyn McNamee (The Hawke Family Book 6) – Review by Ashleigh Whitwell

Steele Resolve (Hawke Family #6)Steele Resolve by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Steele Resolve is the sixth and final instalment of the Hawke Family series. Returning to New Orleans and the world of the Hawke’s always has me excited, but there was something extra intriguing about this story. Following the Hawke’s enemy, Luca Abello, was something I was both intrigued and nervous about. After everything his family has done to the Hawke’s, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to connect with him or his life. How wrong could I be?!

Our connection to the Hawke’s isn’t just through Luca. The other part of the book is written from Byron’s point of view, a long-standing employee and friend of the Hawke family. I immediately liked Byron and connected with his character. He’s open, honest and loyal and an all-round good person. This left me wondering even more about how someone so kind-hearted was going to find a connection with Luca. Well, it turns out Luca isn’t as bad as I thought. In fact, I ended up rather liking him, too! Luca has spent most of his life lying and putting up a false-front, so seeing him be so raw and real with Byron was so much fun to read. They really had an instant connection, and while this isn’t everyone’s favourite thing to read, I really felt like the chemistry they had was real and believable.

As with every Hawke Family instalment, this book had its drama and danger. The ‘oh my god’ moment in this book really took me by surprising; I actually had to stop and re-read to make sure I had read things correctly. It was such a shock and so unsuspecting, I loved it! But by far, my most favourite part of this book was the epilogue. No spoilers here but it was so so beautiful. It is, 100%, a very satisfying ending. For a series I love so much, this was a great addition and such a wonderful way to end things; what a bittersweet read!

Too Hot to Handle by Avery Scott is the third book in the Catch series. I wasn’t sure what to expect since this is the first book in the series I’ve read. I discovered that each of these books can be read as a standalone, though the previous book is referenced.

Tony, oh what can I say about Tony? He is an amazing guy, very sweet but not looking for a relationship. Oh and he’s a firefighter. Sigh…..

Georgia is a hot mess but as you get to know her you discover why that is. She puts up with a lot more from family than she should. I would definitely do things a bit different if I were her.

I got the impression that this may be the last book in the series but a girl can dream right?

Considering what Jack does for his clan I’m glad that his character is kind and fun loving especially when it came to Louisa. There is also an element of mystery in this story that kept me captivated. We meet a variety of characters in this book and I thought it made it that much better. The author made this book easy to read and kept me entertained. I recommend this book, and I can’t wait to read the next one.

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors was a great 5 star read and book three in the Nite Fire series. I was pulled in right from the beginning, I’m really enjoying this series. I couldn’t wait to see how things came together in the end for this story.

Dahlia and her partner Alex are working on a bizarre case involving nonhuman beings. While investigating they encounter supernatural worlds that bring several different characters.

Can they solve the mystery behind the crimes? Will she be able to save her friends sister?

Overall I enjoyed this book, we get suspense, secrets, mysteries and so much more. We continue to see Dahlia grow stronger as each book comes along. All of the characters added a great element to the story. We even get to see some from previous books in the series. C.L. Schneider does a great job with her writing, the detail is great and you feel like you are right there with the characters. If you’re looking for a great urban fantasy series to read, I highly suggest you 1-click and get started on this one.

Children of the Future by Jane Suen is a short, mystery story. Telly is the school bus driver and finds that all the children except for one have gone missing from the school. Will Telly figure out what happened?
This is a quick read which doesn’t give away the crux of the story until the end. The story is written very simply and would make a good read for a younger reader as well as adult readers. I liked Telly and Billy but felt there was something missing from some of the other characters. I did not feel like their reactions were relatable to the news the children have gone missing. Overall, I enjoyed this story and like the story was told in the manner it was told. Everything worked together well.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Too hot to handle by Avery Scott was a great read. There wasn’t to much of anything in it. I really enjoyed reading this book and look forward to more from this author. This was a happy read for me.
Tony is at a VIP event for “Catch” a friends reality tv show airing and all he really wants to do is be home or some place quieter. He spots a gorgeous girl trying to get into the VIP area and the bouncers are giving her a hard time. She’s clearly drunk and Tony decides to help her by saying she is with him so they will allow her to the VIP area.
Georgia is a woman who was recently engaged to someone who was on the reality show and basically just forgot he was engaged and is now engaged to someone new. A real jerk if you ask me. Georgia hasn’t had an easy life. She’s always trying to fit into a mold of what her step mother and step sisters are like. She reminds me of Cinderella a bit.
The night at the club, Tony sees her obviously under a lot of stress and takes her home but doesn’t try anything. He’s a perfect gentleman. The next morning they part ways only to run into each other again when Tony goes on a EMS call. What are the odds? Fate has a funny way of making things like this happen.
Tony and Georgia become friends and Tony decides to help Georgia win back the love of Chaz. They act like a couple when they go out hoping to make Chaz jealous. There’s only one problem with that plan. Georgia is beautiful and Tony is a sweet, amazingly sexy firefighter and they are beyond attracted to each other. What will happen when Chaz and Georgia are face to face again? What will happen when Tony and Georgia give it a shot as a couple and then Tony finds out about how Georgia and Chaz ran into each other when Tony abruptly left after her family treats him like garbage? Definitely a great read you won’t want to miss out on. 5 stars!!!

My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kingdom of War (Kingdom Journals Book 4) by Tricia Copeland was an action packed, multi layer detail read, that had me hooked.

Not my first read by this author, or in this series, so I knew I was in for something dark and fun. And yes I know I jumped again to the middle, but this book reads like a standalone, and with the well place detail, world building, and characters, I didn’t feel lost or confused. I actually got sucked into this book right away, and before I knew it I had it read. It’s that type of book, and if this is anything to go by, I’m definitely going to be getting my hands on the other books.

I love Hunter, he was a wonderful character that was both compelling and complex. He was very aware of himself, and pushed himself to try to conquer the evil he felt he had hidden in him. It was a refreshing to read such a well build MC, both strong, flawed and interesting. The side characters, his friends, were just as well rounded and entertaining. They played well off one another, and their interaction felt natural and real. I got to touch on the world-building and detail, like wow, the author out such a complex place on paper, and it was amazing to read about. Crips, rich and just movie like, I didn’t wan to leave this world. Mad props to the author, and their lush talent.

Overall this book is well worth the read, your time, and your energy. So please take my super high recommedantion and my stamp of approval, that you will get lost in this one of a kind read.

Happy Reading

The Last Dance by Lonna Enox is a very well written, enjoyable book that keeps you on your toes. I was pulled into the story and couldn’t put it down.

Sorrel moves to New Mexico to escape and start a new life. It seems like a good place to start over, especially since she inherited the land from her aunt. Sorrel has decided that to start over, she will do everything different. She wants to open a gift shop and take wildlife photography. What she doesn’t expect is to be the center of a few murders. Will Sorrel be safe in her new home?

This book was very suspenseful and definitely keeps you on your toes. Sorrel is definitely a character that is relatable. She is strong willed and not afraid to say what she thinks. For someone that has faced what she has, she stays strong and powers through. I absolutely recommend this book!

Harper gets a vibe off them but is not really able to pin point it … the further you get into the story you start asking yourself whether they are good or bad or stalkerish or simply crazy … I promise you that you will not be able to put the book down once you start so make sure you have enough time planned to do so!

RETURN is the second in “The Rewind Series” and can absolutely be read as a stand-alone. It is a full bodied romance that has a slow burn, angst, emotions, sexy times and friendship. The characters are complex and well developed and there are a few who are just downright evil.

The story line is well plotted and flows with ease. This was a quick read on a rainy Sunday afternoon and I would absolutely recommend it. There are a few terms that are “new” to some people’s vocabulary and I would just like to say this: It doesn’t matter what word is used – it’s still flesh and bones and heart and brains. No matter what pronoun or sexual identity someone is – we are all still human beings.

This was a great read during pride month (or any month for that matter).

This book is a must read. Juliette and Sawyer had chemistry from the beginning. Juliette is a very strong, intelligent and witty woman that I loved. Sawyer is a very protective kind of man with a heart of gold, whom I also loved. There were times when I was at the edge of my seat anticipating what was gonna happen. I enjoyed the banter between these two characters and the romantic moments were heartwarming. There are definitely some obstacles for these two, and not just the memory loss. You need to read it to find out if these two can work through those obstacles. This is the sixth book in this series and can be read as a standalone but I think you should read the entire series because you get to know some of the other guys and their story and also because they are all wonderful stories. I can’t wait to read what’s next. I highly recommend this book.

What another brilliant book by author Rowan Shaw. Return is Book 2 in the Rewind Series, and for this not being a genre of book I usually read, I can’t deny that I enjoyed this book just as much as the first. This is a well-written book that flows from chapter to chapter with characters that are well developed, connectable and you grow to love throughout. I loved Raphael and Adrien story, they go along on a journey in which they have a strong and undeniable chemistry.
This book while can be read as a stand-alone, I highly suggest you pick up Book 1 as this is where we first meet our main character.

I haven’t been a reader of paranormal, especially shifter, romance for a very long time but I will happily admit to really enjoying Furbidden Attraction: A Cursed Romance (Raven Falls Cursed Romances Book 1) by author R. O’Leary. This book had me from the first page with the intense introduction to Jack leading up to the inevitable first meeting between him and Louisa.
The author did a very good job building the world around the den, Raven Falls, the shifters, Louisa’s backstory and Jack. The main characters were funny, intense and realistic not to mention well fleshed out and easy to get involved with. The secondary characters were a hoot! They lent a little more depth to the story and were fun to read to the point I can’t wait to see what happens in the next installment of this series.

I love paranormal books and this one was great! I really liked the story and the characters in this book, it really came together nicely. It was nice and refreshing to see the main character of Lila being obsessed with vampire romance and then bam, she is in one. That was new for me and was really intriguing to watch.

Lila and Adam are a great pairing. I feel like anyone in a situation with vampires would have a hard time figuring out who to trust and watching Lila and Adam’s relationship develop was nice. Their romance is beautiful. The secondary characters were amazing as well. They provided some comic relief every now and again.

This book was full of suspense, romance and a lot of wondering what will happen next. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves paranormal romance, and can’t wait to see more from this author.

So I love my shifter romance novels and this was a brand new take of this storyline for me.

Shifters divided into clans all from a curse long ago posed on them, finally coming together to combat a common foe. Will this hopefully lead to clean truces. We will see.

The characters in this novel are brilliantly written, and have a sense of growth from page one until the end, Lou is very quite eccentric  and handles the paranormal world quite differently to how everyone expects. However Alice is by far my favourite character and I really do hope book 2 in this series has a bit more of Alice and the Den and her story.
