Dark the first book in the series by Paul Arvidson is a beautifully written Sci-Fi fantasy book. This is my first book by this author so I did not have any preconceived thoughts of what to expect. Arvidson’s story is well thought out, characters are fully developed, and keeps you guessing on what is coming down the pike. One thing I really love about Sci-FI is that there are no rules. Arvidson created a new world that kept me turning the pages because I could not wait to see what was happening next. Dark is a planet on which Dun with his two friends are on a journey through a labyrinth. There are missing elements that Dun is trying to seek out. He is having dreams, but he is not sure if they mean anything. Will Dun and his friends make it through the labyrinth? What other dangers will they encounter?

If you have read this author before, you know the amazing ride she takes the reader on.
This is the first book of a new series and there were a few times I wanted to throw my Kindle against a wall and scream. There were other times I chuckled at the back and forth of the characters and others where my heart broke.
This is a well-developed plot and the way characters are introduced held my attention from beginning to end. There is a certain delicateness yet wicked strength about this book (I know that’s a total contradiction). It ebbs and flows as the story evolves and the secondary characters play an important role in moving the story forward.
I absolutely will continue reading this story and I am adding it to my TBR again before I begin the next in the series.
I have always enjoyed reading this author’s works and recommend her and this story.

Enemies of the Desert picks up after Blackbird squares off with Salena. I have to say that I am loving this series! Blackbird has Salena in her sights and she knows that she is behind the Wafa Idris. Is she right? Will Blackbird finally get Salena? The women in Mossad are so bada$$ and they can take on anyone and anything without blinking an eye. If you like action, you like take charge women then this is the series for you. As I said with the last book, I just wish the stories had more detail and were longer. Here’s hoping there is another one!!

A great read about shadows. Dahlia Nite is a lyrriken dragon shifter working for the police force. One day, a series of body parts turns up at a local riverbank and not all of them are human. With only mysteries to go on, Dahlia and her friends chase shadows that lead to one grim scene after another and a group of dangerous men in masks. Can they solve the crimes before more creatures get hurt? A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Dahlia bold and brave but caring underneath or Evans as a fun loving friend but grieving underneath. Great cats of supporting characters like the suspicious Ronnie or the stubborn Creed. I loved the visual detail throughout the novel with the sense of macabre with the body parts and gurney and furnaces horrifying but still realistic. Or with the Gant mansion on a high cliff with its long path and old spires and windows with the sense of the gothic and unsettling perfectly written. Or the use of sounds and smells so vivid it’s as if you’re actually there. A great example of world bulling with fantasy creatures coexisting alongside humanity with their own rules and laws and societies. I loved the inclusion of different fantasy cretaues into the novel such as the banshee or aswang or selkie given the respect they deserve and true to their origins and wonderfully written. I also loved the use of suspense in the novel with slow builds to the scenes in the slaughter house or the factory with a sense of foreboding that something isn’t right. Or the draw of suspense around the crimes, making you want to read on to find out who is behind it all and why they are doing it. Fast paced action and high stakes make for a caotivsting read. Overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.
This is another amazing story to add to the series! I can’t believe what happened in here. It definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. This character breaks my heart…just as much as in Rocks story a few books ago. These men are so tied to the club…they are their family. When he is ripping off his patch and replacing it with Nomad. I could really *feel* for him. I almost had tears as well. It’s so “raw” being inside his head and listening to his thoughts while this is happening. I really feel bad for the character. He tries and tries so hard but nothing seems to come up aces for him. The female was a surprise! After learning about her life I can understand why she is so spunky and determined.
I did love hanging out in Pueblo again with this crew. It’s nice to see them and watch everyone try to figure out their place in the MC. Especially the guys just patched in. But I am not discounting Demon in this scenario either. His need to find his footing as the Prez. We did get to spend some time with the old ladies as well as see bets placed on their club cat! Ha ha those guys! They bet on anything!
Those last two lines in the Epilogue…are the perfect way to end this book! I absolutely loved reading them!
I don’t know how this author does it time after time but I commend her for each of these books. I enjoy reading about this lifestyle and she makes me care about these characters. All of these book can be read as a stand alone but I promise you will get much more enjoyment learning the brotherhood of these guys if you start at the beginning.

This is the third book of the series and just like the others I was lost amongst the pages and completely hooked I just couldn’t pull my eyes away. There just so much going on that you can’t just be drawn to the storyline from mystery to reality and your just so intrigued that you want to read on so stopping isn’t an issue while reading this novel. I have loved every second of this novel and can’t wait to sink my teeth into more ?. This is a must read even if your like me and not usually into the fantasy/shapeshifter reads but don’t be too quick to judge this may just change your views!

Born and reared in Mississippi, I love the South and all the charms it borders provide.
My debut novel, The Point, has received raving reviews on Amazon and Goodreads worldwide. I have been humbled and overwhelmed by the outpouring support I’ve received. I am excited about the release of my latest novel, Michael’s Heart, and hope it is celebrated as enthusiastically as my last.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband of 33 years on our farm, doing anything with my three adult children, and playing with my amazing grands. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends, writing music, community theater and am always plotting my next novel with coffee in hand.
One of my favorite quotes is by Douglas Everett.
“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some that face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”
I am a firm believer that everyone has a dream placed inside them, and life is too short not to make that dream a reality.

Appearances can be deceiving. And in Southern California, where the sun shines almost every day and make-believe has its own industry, it’s hard to tell what is real and what is merely illusion. Two inquiries come to MDPI on the same day that seem like fairly straight-forward missing person cases. But it doesn’t take long to discover there’s nothing ordinary about the disappearance of two beautiful sisters from Minnesota and an estranged heiress who has never touched her eight-figure fortune.
While Madeline’s partner, Mike Delaney, heads down to Los Angeles to search for his cousin’s vanished girlfriend and her sister, Madeline heads to San Luis Obispo in hopes of picking up a twelve-year-old trail at a Catholic boarding school. Their separate pursuits lead them into a world where a frightening reality hides behind a glossy veneer. With several lives hanging in the balance, Mike and Madeline are faced with daunting odds and ruthless criminals who will kill to keep what they have taken.
Though I was always an ardent reader, I was convinced I couldn’t string sentences together if my life depended on it. Fortunately for me, when I was looking for something creative I could do from bed—if my mystery illness progressed to that point—I decided to try my hand at it. No pressure, no expectations. I didn’t tell anyone what I was up to. I just wanted to see if I could string sentences together and tell an interesting story.
I remembered a quote by Hemingway, “Write about what you know.” With this mandate, I chose the time spent living with my husband in the French Quarter of New Orleans as the backdrop for my story. I typed out my first two paragraphs on my forty-third birthday. I finished that book on my next birthday, and started my second the same day. I now consider those my “practice books”.
As my still-nameless illness progressed, I continued running the family business and continued to write. Nine years after my symptoms began, I finally received a correct diagnosis: Lyme disease, and more specifically, late-stage Lyme, because it had been allowed to progress untreated for so long.
Though the pain was almost unendurable, I clung to my writing like a life preserver. It allowed me to crawl up inside my head, out of my body, giving me brief respites from the vast array of pains.
Though I would never wish this disease on anyone, I can honestly say I am grateful for the path my life took, for it gave me the gift of writing. I now have nine published books, all of which have special significance for me. I write general fiction, mysteries and some nonfiction.
Once Upon a Lyme: The Tale of Two Journeys, is the detailed account of the path my mystery illness led me down as I sought help from over two-dozen doctors, and the gift of writing that was the unexpected upside of being so hopeless ill.
Finding Ruth was inspired by a previously unseen photograph of my mother taken when she was nineteen. I found it as I was going through her things prior to her move into a skilled nursing hospital. That gorgeous photograph of her looking so happy and full of promise made me realize how little I knew about her life before I came along. Because Alzheimer’s has taken away all her memories, I painstakingly reconstructed her life from public records, thousands of photographs, and what my brother, sister and I could remember. The message in the tribute to my mom is Ask while you have the chance.
As of this writing, I have just completed the fourth book in the Madeline Dawkins mystery series. I’m still in love with writing and I still squeal with joy to think that I’ve written eleven books and self-published nine of them. If there is a message in this, it’s Never discounts what you are capable of achieving.

This book starts with action and keeps it up throughout the entire story. There is plenty of danger and suspense and I was on the edge of my seat for a lot of it. I love the character of Dahlia and reading about all the things that she has been through. There are many great characters in this story. The author created wonderful worlds with wonderful and interesting creatures with great attention to detail. The first two books were fantastic and this one I thought was even better. I highly recommend this book.

The Brass Compass by Ellen Butler is a historical fiction story taking place in World War II. Lily Saint James, an American spy, is sent to work for a family in Germany. This story is great. There is a lot to this story and I did not want to put it down and wanted to read all the way through. Lily was a fascinating character and I felt like I was right there by her. I really enjoy stories based on historical facts and put into a fiction story. I hope to see more of these books in the future by Ellen Butler.

FURBIDDEN ATTRACTION is a quick and easy read that I read in one sitting. It has a really nice cadence with a nice give and take between the 2 main characters.
Secondary characters all play a roll in the story and while they are obviously being introduced for future stories, their actions aren’t fillers.
This story has a sense of humor that I was not expecting “There was a strange man in her apartment, possibly a serial killer. A naked serial killer who clearly had a gym membership. ”
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

I love that when I read, like im right there with the characters going through everything they are.

Cult (Feisty Lawyers Book 3) by Seelie Kay is an interesting story of women going missing from college campus and the usual troops from the operatives putting together all the pieces, going undercover and catching the bad guys.

Enemies of the Desert (Silent Secrets Series Book 3) by Lisette Kristensen is another exciting book in this series. It is a story of badass women who are trained in espionage and are members of an elite group that deals with terrorism. This series has me hooked is a definite page turner. Espionage and lies, secrets and terrorists, suspense and murder are only a fraction of what is in this story.
Blackbird is on her way to being one heck of an operator and she has been picked to be on a mission where her identity has been compromised by the one person who wants her dead.
This is one series that should be on your TBR list.

Steele Resolve (The Hawke Family Book 6) by Gwyn McNamee is sadly the last book in this great series. I suggest you read all the books in the series in order so that you get the complete picture and backstories of all the wonderful characters. I have come to love all of the characters in this series and am glad that Gwyn included Luca as part of the Hawke family. This sexy M/M romance is a story where it is bad enough being a mob boss without throwing being gay into the mix makes for one suspenseful and explosive story.
Luca has come home and wants back into the Hawke family that he had when they were younger but when your are the son of one of the most .mob bosses, you are by default just as bad as your surname. What he didn’t expect was to find the one person who could make his life complete.
Byron can’t stop thinking about the man he had just had a one night stand and when that person turns up for a meeting with the Hawke’s he realises just how much of a mess his life is now in. Will he reveal the truth to the people he sees as family or will he walk away from the best thing that has ever happened.
This story was so good I am sorry to see the series end but can’t wait to see what Gwyn has in store for us in the future.

The Arrangement Duet Box Set by Madison Quinn tells the intriguing, interesting and at times complicated love story between Kenzie Rose and Nicholas Parker. Both characters are flawed and intense making this a roller coaster of a ride that all begins with a chance meeting one rainy afternoon. I was drawn into this story from the very first page. I felt for Kenzie Rose and couldn’t wait to delve more into her backstory, she was just one of those characters you read and feel as if they are a real person and you become invested in them. Then comes Nicholas, who is just tragic! As a reader you can’t help feeling his pain. You want these two to overcome and succeed. I flew through the first book it was just that good and I couldn’t wait to continue on to the second. While good also, I felt like the second part dragged, maybe it was a bit drawn out and too descriptive and I found myself skimming at times to get to the good stuff. I would definitely recommend this duet and just say to hang in there during the second installment it will all be worth it in the end.

A Protector’s Touch by Parker Sinclair is a beautiful stand alone novel. It made me realize things about myself that I had never considered before.

Manda Mellett, just keeps getting better and better! Devil Due is book 3 in the Colorado Chapter Series. I was totally captivated by this read right from the very beginning until the end and I never wanted to put the reader down. Each of Manda Mellett’s reads gets better and better. She continues to create characters that are intriguing and really give this story its extra depth. This book is fast-paced, engaging and action-packed. The characters have chemistry that is off the charts and i absolutely loved following these characters journey. Even though this story is part of a series, they can be read as a stand-alone, but for the ultimate read with a variety of characters that you will come to love and feel as though you are there alongside them, you need to read all of them in this series! Each book is just as brilliant and amazing as the one before, you will not want to put these reads down. I highly recommend this book, and most of all this author she continues to really show me how amazing she is! Do not miss this read!

Steele Resolve by Gwyn McNamee is the sixth and final book in the Hawke Family Series. I wasn’t ready to say bye to this family so I put off reading the book until the curiosity got the better of me and I’m so glad I finally caved.
Bryon and Steele are a couple I want to hang out, actually I would love to hang out with the entire Hawke Family. They just seem like a group that knows how to have a lot of fun and each one of them love their partner and family like there is no one else.
I’m really going to miss each and every one of these characters, but feel like the series ended perfectly. Looking forward to seeing what Ms. McNamee releases next.

Never Let Me Go (Bayou Devils MC Book 6) by A.M. Myers is a romantic suspense that immediately dives right into the journey this story needs to go on. The opening scenes make your heart strings pull and you wonder where A.M. Myers will take these characters that have been introduced along with the others you know are waiting on the sides awaiting their chance to appear and make their own marks. I felt this story was beyond amazing and loved how the author laid out the sequences of events and their chain of reactions that occur. This is not a straight forward story, but one full of many elements that will keep you guessing and wondering exactly where key characters will fall.

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors (Book 3) by C. L. Schneider is a well written paranormal suspense. This story is loaded with numerous elements that give it a edge with the suspense, action and the unknown keeping the reader anxiously awaiting to see what could possibly happen next. Dahlia is an amazing character in this book/series and I cannot seem to read enough! C.L. Schneider is masterfully with the story sequencing and dialogue while providing the essence of imaginative characters and locales which are realistic, that the reader can truly envision. Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors is excellent and a truly great and thrilling read from start to end.

Alex is the first book in Maddie Wade’s Eidolon Black Ops series that is a spinoff of her Fortus Security Series. We met Eidolon guys in the Fortus Series books and I was really excited when the writer decided to do a spinoff and give us Eidolon boys and their stories!!! I have read every single one of Fortus Security books and I know it will be the same with Eidolon Black Ops series as I absolutely love the universe Maddie Wade has created! With every book we get deeper into it and get more hooked on it! Alex Martinez is the right had man of the Eidolon Black Ops leader Jack and he lost his heart when he was eighteen … well he handed his heart to Evelyn Garcia when he was eight and she was six years old and he lost her when he was eighteen … she simply disappeared one night and now it has been fifteen years he has had no idea what happened to her … Well, their paths cross and Evelyn is no longer the tender-hearted artist she was, she is a cold blooded killer/assassin … they are thrown together as a kill order is taken out on Evelyn and there is no well in hell that Alex will let it happen so we are taken on one heck of a ride and you will be keeping your fingers crossed throughout the whole book hoping that they will win the race against the time!

An Unexpected Sequel (Paranormal Talent Agency #4) by Heather Silvio was just as a fun read as the other three. I do think you should read the other three books in the series just so everything makes sense. Overall I liked the book. I thought it was fun and flowed well. I like the author’s style and have enjoyed each book of hers. I wasn’t a fan of Robin but felt she redeemed herself some in this book. 4 star rating

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors By C.L Schneider. This book was probably my favorite so far. I love how the author doesn’t stick to a straight pattern in the writing, the story is ever changing and keeps readers engaged. I highly recommend reading these in order even though you won’t be lost thanks to the authors writing style but I enjoyed them being in order. Each character brings something different and unique to the storyline and it’s fun to read about them all. I was definitely kept on my toes with this one and highly recommend this story, series and author. Five stars all the way.
