My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just the cover has me in goosebumps !

I just have this feeling I’m going to need a jar of ice chips and a fan for next week or so just to make sure I don’t overheat 😉🤦‍♀️😂🔥😱

So Caspian is the first brother I’m about to be acquainted with and he’s our typical bad boys , beautiful cars , beautiful woman and a life of luxury in general but he could loose this all if he doesn’t meet the requirements set by his uncle …..

Paisley , shame girl life just keeps throwing her curve balls , no roof over her head , no money , no work , a mother who is ill and medical costs are accumulating and funds are running out , she’s in real dire straits and beyond desperate , my heart just shatters for her …..

That’s ladies and gentlemen is where theirs paths cross … Desperation +convenience = chaos and drama 🎭🔥🤦‍♀️

What was convenient soon becomes very real and very inconvenient, as per the norm of matters of the heart 😉❣️

Don’t be fooled there’s more to Caspian than meets the eye and under all those layers is a man with heart ❤️ Paisley is a tough cookie and in my eyes I think they’re the perfect match .

Did I cry … yes …. Did I want to punch someone … yes …. Did I enjoy every page … YES !!!!

The end did leave me a little WTH 😱 you have been warned 😉

Body Checked (Astoria Bay Thunder #2)Body Checked by C.J. Cartwright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this series so much! Even though this is the second book in the series you could read this without having read the previous book and fully enjoy it. I say read them both though simply because they are fantastic books from an amazing author with fun storylines and truly loveable characters.
This book sees us follow Bridger, an Enforcer for the Astoria Bay Thunder with a rep problem and Tia, a passionate young woman trying to recover from a mistake made in her younger years that keeps coming back to haunt her, as they navigate a new friendship. It is a fun filled ride full of not only laughter and love but plenty of emotion!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am seriously struggling to find the right words to do this book and it’s talented author the justice it truly deserves. I was so not ready for the emotional rollercoaster that I was taken on while reading this and while my level of respect for our service men and women was already high, this is most definitely a very strong reminder that it should be even more so. It reinforces to all who read it not just what is sacrificed during service but the battles that continue well after they are home with loved ones and the lasting effects it can all have. While I have never experienced this for myself so can not say that I fully understand, this wonderful author has helped to further open my eyes and for that I am forever grateful.

Despite Aqua Marine’s super lineage, this wannabe superhero can only control a cup of water at a time. Not very effective as far as superpowers go. Never mind being able to stop the new nefarious villain, The Overlord of the Dance from taking over part of the city.

That is until she discovers there is a cup of water in the human heart when she accidentally blows his out. 

Now her villainous mother wants her to join the League of Extraordinary Evil. 

Aqua Marine would like to hide under a rock. 

And Overlord of the Dance? Is apparently not quite dead yet, and he would like to have a word with her about becoming his new nemesis. 

If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Aqua Marine’s is a slip and slide, with capes.

A mercenary with death following his every step…

Leo has been evading Lady Death’s grip his entire life. First, fighting in the merciless Tominese arenas, and then becoming the most feared mercenary in the country. The unnatural powers that have made him into a ruthless killer are the same that prohibit his very existence under the royal laws of Tominay.  Though they will always be hunted, he protects his brothers and sister with his every breath because allowing death to take them away has never been an option.

Now they must run, or face their worst nightmares…

When Leo’s employer finds out his younger brother holds the same power that made him into an invaluable weapon, they must make a long-awaited decision: to stay and risk slaughter, or to flee their home in search of a new life.

Will they survive the journey, or fall fighting for their freedom?

It’s a battle for survival as the siblings chase the land of their people in the hopes of a better future. Though they try to outrun it, the demons of the past never cease to haunt them, and the trials of the future hold more terror than can be imagined. But will the journey truly lead to the salvation they crave, or walk them straight to the bloody end they fear?

The Lie That BindsThe Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great book! This is hands down one of the best books I have read this year. The story itself was believable, especially when it came to showing the bullying being done by the popular clique. Nathan has a big secret that he doesn’t want to get out. Nobody in school knows, except for Holly. She only found out by accident and he will do anything to make sure she keeps her mouth shut. How far will he go? Holly has been crushing on Nathan since the first day she saw him in her new school. She wanted to believe that he was one of the jerks after an incident involving her friend, but the more they spend time together the more she sees that he is a good person. When he asks her out she thinks he’s kidding. Why would he want to date her? When feelings get involved and the secret is being threatened, how far is too far in keeping it? Secrets don’t stay hidden for long.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

 

3 Stars

 

The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent is a YA contemporary romance story with a strong emphasis on secrets and lies, high school politics/ pressure/angst/drama, trying to fit in, popular kids vs the unpopular, mean girls, cliques, emotion, fear, baggage, and more. I really wanted to love this book far more than I did. I felt so annoyed at times while reading it, and really wanted to shake the characters out of frustration. I didn’t connect with the characters as well as I would have hoped, and this made it difficult to invest in them and the outcome of the story. There seemed to be (for me) a lot of repetition that pulled me out of the story, then, as well, the flow of the story lagged/dragged in parts. This is not a typical reaction from me to one of Ms. Argents stories, as I loved her other books- so I will definitely be going back to revisit this book in a week or two and see if I still feel the same way, or if, perhaps, I was just having an off day when I read it.

Thank you, Any Argent!

Distant Memories: A Nurse Morgan Series: Book TwoDistant Memories: A Nurse Morgan Series: Book Two by Kate MacInnis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

In book two we meet Morgan her good looking boyfriend. Caleb. Things have progressed very quickly between the two much to Morgan’s dismay. Then in comes this ghost who is jealous of Morgan and tries to turn her world upside down! With constant shenanigans, and some heartfelt moments, book 2 takes you along for a ride just like book one did. I suggest grabbing some napkins because there were some parts that pulled my heartstrings and made me feel for our MC. The writing is wonderfully one and takes you into Morgan’s quirky world. I really hope there is a book 3. I want to read more about Morgan and her ghostly friends so much!

The Mastermind : A Brother's Best Friend Romance (WaterFyre Rising Book 1)The Mastermind : A Brother’s Best Friend Romance by Nadia Han
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

The Mastermind is not your typical brother’s best friend romance story. He is also a billionaire and the new boss. The suspense, the intrigue and the mystery are intricately and cleverly woven together to give the reader an intense read. The plot had me eagerly turning the pages waiting to see how it all unfolds. The story has a little bit of everything from danger and deadly secrets, lies and drama, tragedy, angst and let’s not forget the push/pull romance.

Remington Starke is living with a past that has tormented him and has kept him in a dark place. He knows he shouldn’t but she has always been his light but she is off limits. Now he is back and wonders if there could be more.

I look forward to seeing what Nadia gives us next.

Burned by Fire (Firehouse 13, #4)Burned by Fire by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an emotional 5 star read. You get pulled in right from the beginning. Sol is dealing with the fact that he can’t be a firefighter anymore. He attempts to go to a counselor but that doesn’t go very well. He’s a hero to others but not to himself. He tries to hide his injury when he can.
Sol has been Ember’s mentor and she is determined to show him how important he is. Ember was great for Sol, she helps him heal. I really loved these two. Ember was a determined woman and refused to give up on Sol. We get so much in the read. The author does a great job with her writing and you will be done before you know it. All of the characters were great. This book is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone. If you’re looking for an age-gap romance that pulls you in, 1-click and get started today on this one.

The Lie That BindsThe Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Lie That Binds is truly and utterly heartbreaking, tragic, loving, and entertaining. This is not the first book I’ve read by this author and it definitely won’t be the last. I loved every single aspect. The romance, the sadness, the humor, the anger, ect all it was written beautifully. It also gave off “Never Been Kissed” vibes.
Have you ever had a secret you were too embarrassed about so you would do anything to hide it? I do currently, but unlike Nathan I haven’t had anyone unknowingly find out. Secrets always come out, it’s at your control if you are the one delivering the secret or a 3rd party. Unfortunately for Nathan he doesn’t handle that too well. He devises a plan with his brother to help keep the secret under wraps, little did he know Holly was going to blow into his life and shake everything up.
Holly, new to her small Oregon town, has a run with a gorgeous popular boy. Unfortunately he’s not a very nice person. After witnessing him have an epileptic seizure, the dynamic between them changes. Started off as friends but it has evolved to more. However there are classmates who don’t approve and will do anything to undermine them. Will they survive?
The growth and the change between these characters together and apart is written so well. I look forward to digging into more books by this author. She definitely has a gift!

Wow!!!

I love how the author has a small saying before each chapter …..about love, lies and truths. This story had me hooked from the first page and it was very hard to put down. I had to know what was coming next….lies upon lies, half truths and trying to fit in. Nathan is a high school boy who has a “secret” that no one knows except for his family. When Holly stumbles and finds out this secret that Nathan has, its takes you on a journey where lies become more and easier to say…but what happens when you fall for the person you lie to but yet the secret.

I can honestly say I get Nathan’s character in many ways….trying to protect himself from being hurt but yet AHHHH….. the downward spiral can lead you to misery and Holly I loved in this book. She was just so caring and understanding and I love the character growth in the book from beginning to end.

Highly recommended book and I loved every page!

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

Ms. Anise Storm is back again with the fourth book in the Titans of Manhattan series. She again had me on the edge of my seat excited in anticipation on what’s about to happen next. I was not able to put the book down long enough to do anything, I had to read the entire book in one sitting. She has quickly become one of my favorite authors.
Jonas Courtland is a hotel developer; he is one of the most notorious Titans. He’s more than content with his playboy reputation, and after watching various friends fall in love, he has no interest or desire to follow in their footsteps. His focus is on just two things:
– Add more properties to his portfolio
– Add more notches to his bedpost
He allowed himself to care about someone once before, and he has no plans to do it again.
Mackenzie Broderick is a preacher’s daughter, she allowed herself to be deceived by her high school’s biggest playboy and has suffered for it since. Years later, she lands an audition for a life-changing opportunity. To further her career in the culinary world, she only has to:
– Beat out her competition for a restaurant contract
– Not fall victim to her ex-boyfriend’s charms
When playing games, there’s always a winner and a loser, and each is intent on triumphing over the other. Neither is prepared for what comes next when old feelings resurface. Before they can even think about a happily ever after, secrets are revealed and the rules of engagement change. Who will emerge the ultimate victor?
I’m excited to read other books from the author in the near future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ms. Storm is back again with the third book in the Titans of Manhattan, and she again did not disappoint. Her style writing is uniquely hers and hers alone. The way she has with her words makes you feel whatever her characters are feeling in the moment. This book is just as amazing as the last 2 books of this series were.
Mason Steele
As one of the city’s most eligible bachelors and owner of the hottest new nightclub in the city, Mason’s fame and fortune were amassed by following two cardinal rules:
Always keep sex casual
Never mix business with pleasure
Following the rules had never been a problem until he hires a new dancer who turns out to be a recent notch on his playboy bedpost. Drawn to her in a way he’d never been to anyone else, will he be able to keep her that way?
Rhyann Ward
After being awarded a ballet scholarship to an exclusive arts school, this Midwestern girl trades one Manhattan for another, moving from Kansas to New York, ready to follow her dreams with two goals in mind:
Maintain her scholarship
Land a spot in a world-wide production
Quickly learning it takes more than passion, Rhyann discovers she also needs money. Convinced by her roommate to pole dance at a local club, she realizes her new boss is none other than the man she’d had a one-night stand with.
Her life begins to unravel when she is pulled into a new and dangerous world. Lust, intrigue, seduction, and temptation have consequences. As the pieces begin to fall apart, his past and her future pull together to create something neither can resist.
I’m excited to see what the next book in the series is like. I look forward the reading more of her books in the near future.

    My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The amount of quotes in this book that I would like to share is unmeasurable! They are all so deep.

“We’re all just stalks of grain in the wind, Jp. We go where we go, we bend where we bend, and if it’s our time to break, then we break. But you can’t just let yourself bleed out because you think that you deserve it”.
Is one of those quotes that just made a lot of sense for this book.

But what to say about how it was.. I’m a bit speechless, which doesn’t happen often to me. I would recommend doing yourself a favor and go get this book and read it cover to cover. This is one of the most powerful and absorbing books I’ve read so far this year. It really was incredible. I am really interested in picking up book 2 after reading the excerpt of chapter 1 at the end of this book and I will absolutely be checking into reading the authors other works.

Ms. Anise Storm is back again with the second book to the Titans of Manhattan Series. She has quickly become one of my favorited authors. She had me curled up in my bed with my bed reading this. I had to be far enough away from everyone to read this amazing book.
Anton Kingston was one of Hollywood’s biggest heartthrobs, he has everything he ever imagined. A career, fame, fortune; he is sought after worldwide, and at the height of his stardom. His personal life has also aligned, and he finally has the things he’s wanted for a lifetime.
Elsa Fitzgerald was raised in New York City’s high society, she has landed herself one of the Titans, and things couldn’t be better. Elsa is one of the most successful real estate agents in the entire city, and has the devotion of one of Hollywood’s leading men. All that’s missing is the two things she desires above all else.
Their love story is one for the ages, or so she thought. Just when it seems as if everything she’s ever wanted is within reach, tragedy strikes and threatens to tear it all away. As their fairytale starts to unravel, choices have to be made. There are consequences when chasing perfection. Will they be able to live imperfectly ever after? Or will their choices destroy those dreams forever?
I’m excited to see how she continues this series with the next book.

Her and Caleb have also began exploring something of a romantic nature although Morgan has doubts about her “Mr. Too Good to Be True.” As things start to finally calm something or “someone” new turns up from the ghostly world and her sights are set on Dr. Cutler’s man. All the turn of events push Morgan and Caleb even closer and have them starting to think about their future as well as things around them.

This is the first book in the Titans od Manhattan series by the author Anise Storm. Conveniently, this is the first book that I have read from this author, and I was not disappointed. The authors style of writing is very unique and interesting. She was able to transport me into her world she was creating and have the power to have her readers feel all of the emotions the characters are experiencing.

Spoilsport is another fun, light-hearted romance by Belinda Williams. I really enjoyed this enemies-to-lovers type of romance. Chelsea’s best friend Nadia and Tom’s brother Luke are the protagonists in this one. Nadia is tough, confident, and wary of love. Luke is a serious divorced father and falls hard for her. This book is the second book in the Pierce Brothers series but you can probably read it as a stand-alone. Although Nadia can be abrasive, Luke is sweet. They are a fun pair. It is wonderful to watch them attempt to navigate their relationship. This book is a definite must-read.

This is not the first book I’ve read by the author. In fact it’s not the first book in the series that I’ve read. Victoriously Yours is the fourth book in the Titans of Manhattan Series. This time we get to see Jonas.

Jonas is a successful businessman now and has an endless amount of women walking in and out of his life. He is looking for a chef and when he runs into the one person he hasn’t forgotten what will happen. The quote I chose for Jonas is: “Good evening. My name’s Jonas Courtland, and I’m with the Courtland Hospitality Group.”

Kenzie has once been fooled by Jonas Courtland once before. She runs into him when she is supposed to meet with a group of chefs applying for the same job. What happens when she sees him? The quote I chose for Kenzie is: “Dear Lord, please tell me that you’ve at least gotten your stuff packed?”

I liked Tom and Chelsea’s relationship a lot. I love how they looked out for each other. Tom was lovely and earnest. This was a very romantic and easy read.

This book was gripping from the very first page to the end. The author did an incredible job portraying a journey that no person should go through, but many do. I had so many emotions throughout this story, and I already want to read it again to really absorb everything. A harrowing story about how one man’s dedication rippled outward, tormenting his mind and family. Will his wife, Lisa, be able to love him out of this nightmare or will he suffer at the relentless mercy of his past military service? This is a must read for anyone but especially if you know someone affected by PTSD as it is such an eye-opening experience!

This was an incredibly written book following a young man as he battles his secret illness and the girl that helps him along the way. I grew up with a brother who had epilepsy so this book hit close to home. The author was able to capture the real emotion of Nathan and the fear that encompassed him. All he wanted to be was normal. Each episode he had, his pain could be felt. Combine that with the raw emotion that Holly brings and your heart will go through all sorts of feelings. I found myself smiling, crying, and hoping for everything to work out. I had the hardest time putting this book down. Read it, you will not be disappointed.

True Bastard (Dark Sparrow #4)True Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am officially a Kells fan! It was so wonderful to see all the boys join forces! The main heroine this time, however, is so unique! She has strong responsibilities that keep her away from our strong, wounded cop, but all she does is ignite his protective instincts! And the epilogue?! I just can’t wait for the next one!
