If you have been waiting on the back story of Ian Troy, here it is! Ian is part of the army that protects Tells Kingdom. Under order of the queen his time is made unbearable. Everyone is scared of his power and what he could possibly do. One day Queen Aylagar hand picks him and four other men for a special mission deep in enemy territory.

Salt Love: A Summer Romantic ComedySalt Love: A Summer Romantic Comedy by Marika Ray
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The old woman knew what she was about when she made stipulations in her will. It just took Kenna a while to understand that. I mean it’s the last thing on your mind when you run to a place of solace when your entire world has crumbled before your eyes. Not to mention the grumpy neighbour she must endure.
Dec didn’t know what it was about her, but he could not deny the pull in her direction every time he saw her. Only his secrets and past are the things that could keep them a part.
Marika writes endearing characters that make you laugh. Falling in love with Kenna and Dec was so easy and the things they got up to at times that ended in disaster at times making this a fun, adventurous and sweet second chance RomCom.
It was great to see Kenna go from a broken-down girl who had lost her self esteem to a strong, sassy, capable woman. Watching Dec finally let go of his past and live again made my heart sing. But its not just these two there are a cast of others that are just as fun too.
Salt Love is the perfect blend of sexy, spicey, hotness and some time alone to enjoy it.

Bad Enough (The Deadman's Tribe, #2)Bad Enough by Nicole Craig
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars
I really enjoyed the first book in the series Good Enough which was Nicoles debut book, and I said she is an author to watch out for and after reading this book I stand by that statement. I have been anxiously waiting for this book to come out.
Bad Enough is TB and Sylvan’s story where the two could not be more different. He’s the bad boy who will do what ever it takes to get what is needed. She is totally at the other end of the spectrum.
This engrossing book out did the first one and the Deadman Tribe; hot sexy alpha military-security Navy SEAL men that makes you want to keep the team around. Ooohlala! The characters are strong, well developed and most definitely complex. These men are dedicated, loyal to a fault and I found myself laughing at times with their wit and banter.
Bad Enough is a fast paced cleverly woven romantic suspense story. It flowed seamlessly and effortlessly even with its complex and multilayered plot. Nicole puts them through their paces with danger in spades, intrigue, lots of tension and suspense. I was engrossed; I couldn’t get enough. I like stories that have me on the edge and Nicole does that with these books.
I am addicted to the Deadman’s Tribe! I want more.

Stout of My League (Love on Tap #4)Stout of My League by Sylvie Stewart
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lynn is the youngest of the Brookes clan with that her brothers have always protected her even if she does not want it or need it but when it comes to boyfriends it is taken up a notch. So when at her summer job and she is involved in an emergency and a hunky helper jumps in she wonders if this is a chance meeting or will see him around the ball park again.

Joey has just transferred to the Arrows not sure if he will fit in but when he meets Lynn he has this instant attraction to her but he is unsure if she will like him for him, so when Joey and his friends are drinking in the Blue Bigfoot brewery he sees her and then he has to get her onside.

Joey and Lynn’s relationship is going great but when Joey steps over the boundaries she is determined to have a boyfriend who is an equal and not a protector, can they overcome the families history and Can Lynn be in the relationship with the man she loves.

I love this series and this book does not disappoint with a great twist at the end. This book can be read as a standalone story as the author does fill in details along the way but to honest you will get the whole feel of the Brookes if you read each of the books. I love the secondary characters and I wished Duke was is this story abit more as he is such a quirky guy and a brilliant character.

The chemistry with Joey and Lynn was off the page and this is just a lovely relationship and probably my favourite story so far. The story was well written as always and the new characters were brilliantly and added to the story, I can’t wait to see if there is another book in this series.

The world of the time is well written and descriptive.

Troy (The Crown of Stones)Troy by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the prequel to The Crown Of Stones Trilogy. After reading those and falling in love with Ian Troy’s story I couldn’t wait to read this book and re enter his world. This is a amazing fantasy adventure filled with danger and action packed. I loved this story because it gives us a deeper insight into Ian Tory’s life and the torment and persecution he suffered because of who he is.

Ian Troy is Shinree who was allowed to keep his magical abilities where all other Shinree babies were given medication to stop them. The king has placed him in the army to protect the Tells Kingdom.
Under the orders of the Queen, she makes his life unbearable. Nobody trusts him and everyone is afraid of what his magic can do.
Troy goes through the wars fighting constant battles and always feeling like an outsider. That is until the Queen wants to send him on a mission along with 4 other people to enter enemy territory to save her spy.
However there is a twist. The Queen has also sent Troy a secret mission of his own, to find and kill the King Draken to stop the war.
If Troy can completely this mission will everyone around him start to respect him? Is this a suicide mission that the Queen has sent him on? And if he fails what will happen will he lose his life or just his freedom? But at the end of the day does he even have freedom?

This is a very action packed story which is gripping and I couldn’t put it down. Ian Troy’s character is really dark in the Trilogy and now I understand why because of everything he has gone through previously.

Make Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald CreekMake Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald Creek by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Make Me Want To Love You by ND Jackson is a wholesome feel good romance novel. Shayna is a single mom and DV survivor with a ton of walks up but the kindness and generosity of Burke has them crumbing down. Burke is a man who is only seen for his good looks and wealth. But there’s so much more to him that Shayna sees.

These two are absolutely adorable. The heat leaps off of the page. They bring out the best in each other. I found this story extremely relatable. I was once a single mom and it’s hard. Rewarding but hard. My now husband took to my kids and did his best to make my life easier. The relationship he built with them made me love him even more. So this story really resonated with me. I highly recommend this book.

Maddy- She is a goody little two-shoes who everyone trusts to always do the right thing. She NEVER likes breaking any rule, no matter how insignificant it may be.

Leo- Football jock who does everything he can to protect Maddy. They have been friends since they were kids. He is the goofy one in the friendship, never taking anything seriously (the complete opposite of Maddy).

Oh my goodness! I am not normally into YA books but to say I enjoyed this book is an understatement! This has a good mix of fairytale and modern-day aspects to it. There were some parts in the beginning of the book that made it a bit hard for me to get through, but I am so happy I kept reading through it. The growth of the MFC, the story, the twists, all perfection. The ending had me cracking up! I can’t wait until the next book! I am so excited to see how Leo and Maddy’s story progresses and grows.
((This book does NOT end on a cliffhanger don’t worry!))

A Patriot's TaleA Patriot’s Tale by Nicole Pierman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Patriot’s Tale: An American Revolutionary War Novel by Nicole Pierman was a book that I enjoyed reading. This is a new author for me, and I enjoyed how she was able to pull me into world that is set during the American Revolutionary War, and she did a good job at setting the scene from the start. Nicole was able to put a lot of thought and time into the development of the characters and the parts that they play in this book. This is about Lily and her determination to overthrow a British captain due to the fact that this Captain plays a big part in the loss of her brother. Lily is the main character that has a lot on her plate between the death of her brother and what she is dealing with at home from her family. As far as Lily is concerned, the Redcoats are the enemy, and they need to go down for what they have done to her brother. Lily finds herself being held captive, then has to join a spy ring, and has to find a way to help all of those that are struggling just to survive. I really enjoyed the way that Nicole brought Lily and her story to life, Lily brings so much to the plot of the story and Nicole captured all of that wonderfully. Lily is a strong, determined character that brings inspiration to the women of the story. Nicole did a great job at bringing the historical aspects to the tale of Lily as well as developing Lily into a strong, independent character. I look forward to seeing what else Nicole has to bring to us, I highly recommend picking up a copy of this book and getting lost in the story of Lily and all of the adversity that she has to face!

The Tribe are looking for one of their own who has been MIA. While following a lead, the group makes a connection to the local BDSM club, where Tribe member TB happens to be a regular. A romance author seeks his expertise with BDSM for her next book and soon he doesn’t just want to be a reference for her anymore. This was an intense read with content warnings. I love this series and cannot wait for book #3 to come out. I recommend the book, but not without a content warning.

An adorable book of animals A to Z. There are a lot of these types of books out there. This one is completely different. There is a focus on their cute little noses. Kids can guess which animal will be next by their booper snoots! I love that it’s filled with fun facts about animals that are educational too. Plus a weird interesting fact about each one! I think this will become a favorite in many households.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I could not wait to read this one when I seen it was out. This book was so intriguing, and I loved how it gave a background read on Ian Troy, before he had the crown of stones. This book just like the others is action packed with magic, and fantasy. Once again, the story was so filled with detail that it always makes me feel like I’m sitting there right in the book, experiencing everything that is going on around. This book grabbed me and wouldn’t let go till I was done. Ian is set out to be in the Queens army and of course he’s almost like the outcast in the story, no one talks to him, on one trust him, looks at him, all because he’s an outcast and has magic. This book was so captivating I couldn’t out it down. I do recommend that if you haven’t read the other books in this series, START HERE, this was an amazing rad to jump into this story and you dot want to miss what this has to offer.

This was a really short and fast read that I really enjoyed, it had a very interesting and intriguing twit to it that kept me reading to the end. As humans save animals and the whole climate problem, humans decided it would be a good idea to also go ahead and destroy the oceans thinking it was a smart thing to do. As two fishermen try and catch something to eat, what they got instead wasn’t what they were really looking for. This book took me by surprise by every page and kept me hooked till the end. I really cant wait to read the next book to this installment, but highly recommend that you keep your afternoon free because this read will take that time and you won’t want to do anything but finish it.

Make Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald CreekMake Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald Creek by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Make Me Want to Love You is a sweet romance about a woman’s second chance at love. The author presents the reader with a wonderful story about a single mom who persevered through the disaster of her first marriage and is holding her head high. Be mindful that disaster though a minor subplot could very well be a trigger for someone. The two main characters are characters to love. With the female character experiencing growth throughout the story.
Shayna has been through the ringer. Now a divorced mother of two she unfortunately still has to deal with her ex-husband’s family while he’s in jail. Which doesn’t make her life easy. She just wants to stand on her own two feet and do what’s best for her kids. Never realizing Burke was right in front of her. Her best friend’s business partner, he finds a way to slowly make himself a positive presence in her life. As much as she enjoys it she’s scared. Scared to open up. Scared of being hurt again. But what’s life without a little risk? What will she decide to do?
Meanwhile Burke is a patient man. Especially when it’s something he really wants. He knows if he pushes too hard he could lose her. So he’s along for the ride. Knowing full well he could end up brokenhearted in the end.
But when her ex-family threatens her livelihood, how does she handle it? Does Shayna let Burke help?
So many questions and tons of answers. So many ideas that pop into one’s mind that keep you turning the page, just to see if you were on the right track.
Like I stated previously you will love these two. Their dynamic between each other and their supporting cast of characters. If you’re looking for sweet with some passion mixed in. This book is perfect!

Finding Love (The Oath Series)

What a introduction to the band. I loved all of the guys from the beginning and I felt myself immediately needing to take care of Loch and help him heal. His pain spoke to me in a way that I didn’t expect at all and I’m not sure why it hit me the way it did. Thankfully he had Hailey there to help him when he needed it most.

Hailey who is no stranger to pain but was further down the path than Loch is amazing. She remembered being where he was and helped him start to move forward instead of being stuck in that pain loop.

The main characters were great but I may have fallen in love with Nola and Jonas just a little bit, especially Nola. She reminded me of my best friend who has supported me during some difficult times in my life over the last 36 years and that may be why I loved her as much did.

I have added the rest of this series to my TBR and can’t wait to meet up with everyone again.

In the Midst of Omens (The Legacy of Gilgamesh Book 1)In the Midst of Omens by Nicole Bailey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 stars

In the Midst of Omens is a loose retelling of Gilgamesh a mythological fantasy reminiscent of Beauty and the Beast with a LGBT twist. It is not only a MM romantasy tale it also has Polyamorous relationships. Nicole blends mythology, fantasy and romance into a vivid world of gods of ancient times. She has pulled mythological legends from dusty old books and given them a new lease on life and voices.

The characters are complex and well written. It is a darker slow burn romantic tale of Gilgamesh and the different dynamics and various relationships. Enkidu is an endearing character with his actions and Shamhat kicks ar$e and takes no prisoners and fights for what she wants.

It is a world of action, battles, mythical creatures, passion and more. I also enjoyed the historical value of the mythological king from ancient Mesopotamian times the man behind the story. It did end on a cliffy, but there is a book two coming.

In the Midst of Omens was an interesting tale and one for those who love mythology, retellings and LGBT romance stories. As this is book one of The Legacy of Gilgamesh I am interested to see where it goes.

Make Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald CreekMake Me Want To Love You: Love in Emerald Creek by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Shayna is a single mom that is trying to do the best for her children. She is determined to protect them from her abusive ex. Burke is supportive from day one and builds an amazing relationship with Shayna’s children as he is trying to build a relationship with her. But, Shayna has a hard time accepting that someone can treat her the way she deserves.

These characters were easy to fall in love with. Shayna is a single mom who puts her children first and her own needs last. I think most mothers can relate to that. Burke is not only determined…but he is just a good man. The way he built relationships with the children just warmed my heart.

This is another good story in a great series. You don’t have to read the first book to understand this one…but more Emerald Creek is never a bad thing! I am enjoying this small-town romance series…and I am looking forward to reading what comes next!

Wasabi (Evil Sushi Series) by C.A. King – Review by Jenni Bishop

Wasabi (Evil Sushi Book 3)Wasabi by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

And it all started with Evil Sushi followed by Sashimi and now Wasabi. They each follow on from the other, so if you haven’t read the first two books, I highly recommend that you do so before diving into this book because you will be missing a major part of the storyline.
C.A. is an author that is full of surprises. I love that she jumps from genre to genre but also depth to depth with every tale she writes. It’s why she is a bestselling author.
Wasabi is another unique thriller from the talented C.A. I love the darkness she infuses in her stories. It has a little bit of everything and aspects of mystery, suspense, horror, paranormal/supernatural, sci-fi, dystopian and action. Throw in some creepiness and some chills and you can’t put it down. It is a past paced cleverly woven tale with a well-developed plot that is original, intriguing and flows smooth.
With twists and unexpected turns, danger and anger, secrets and lies, a pandemic and mayhem, mutations and so much more.
The sea is a dangerous place. Beware what is hidden in its depths and what floats to the surface. Imagine you are now the bottom feeder and the top of IT’s list, and it wants food, and that food is you. What’s left of the world is in an uproar. What would you do to survive?
I loved it.

Finding Love (The Oath Series) by Lacey Furr – Review by Felicia Bates

Finding Love (The Oath Series)Finding Love by Lacey Furr
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve never read anything by Lacey Furr before Finding Love and let me tell you, I was hooked from the very first chapter!
Loch and Hailey had undeniable chemistry from the very start and it was great to see how both of their stories unfolded. I was really excited to see there was a playlist at the very beginning of the book, something I often get really excited about when I stumble upon it. I liked that the author alternated chapters between both Loch and Hailey, this really adds depth to the characters in my option. Finding Love was as emotional and well written as it was fun and entertaining. I can’t speak enough about how much I loved the characters. I definitely look forward to looking into the Oath series a bit deeper.
