A Patriot’s Tale: An American Revolutionary War Novel by Nicole Pierman was a really good book! Very easy to read and a page turner. This book focuses on Lily, a orphan with a thirst for revenge against the redcoats who m*rdered her family. It follows her along as she meets a family who is able to help her reach a rebel settlement. From there, the storyline takes a surprising twist as the enemy commander at a nearby town is completely taken with her (no spoilers!). I definitely recommend this book! Strong female character, good for mature teens (some war content) and YA. I also read that this was written when the author was 12! You can tell that it was written with a younger narative in mind, but I still really enjoyed it. Can’t wait to see what else this author publishes.

I love the simplicity of this counting book. It is rhyming yet very quick and short to keep the attention of your littles. The illustrations are phenomenal and there are also facts about sea turtles. There are also so many learning opportunities with this book. This would be a great gift for expectant parents or a little in your life who loves turtles.

Summer of Mud is a wonderfully written Historical children’s book/YA that is aimed for middle school aged kids but adults can enjoy it as well. I was very eager to dive into this book and truly enjoyed reading it. This is a fairly new author to me but her style of writing and attention to detail along with developed characters make the story come to life. There’s a lot going on in this fast paced story but it’s not overwhelming but pretty easy to follow. Get ready to be taken on quite the adventure with Scoob and her older brother as they travel to a small town. Scoob is a young girl but man she has talent and big dreams. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

Spicy? Yep Sexy? Oh yeah! Hot? Like a Tamali Tension? Like a tight rope On fire? Burning bright and hot
This is the spicy addition of The Music That Ties Us after all. It is a slow burn romance at first then it lights up like a fire in the night. I wonder how I have not come across this author before now.
Nicolette has a way with words that brings the story to life with superbly written characters although there were times when I wanted to shake Cadence and get her to walk away. I wondered if they would ever get their act together. They each have their own pasts to deal with, but they can’t seem to escape them. With evil exes on the scene that I wanted to do bodily harm to.
The Music That Ties Us gave me all the feels in all the right and wrong places. It is a very emotive story, and it is hard to put aside but unfortunately work had other ideas. I read it every waking minute because I was so wrapped up in the story.

Kincaid Ranch lead cowboy, Ted Stirling, isn’t looking for romance or entanglements. He settled in Herd, Montana over a decade ago following a devastating loss. He seeks comfort and friendship. Nothing more. If he was going to try for love again, he would pick someone sweet and sunny, exactly like kindergarten teacher, Stephanie Patricks. But she’s too young for him.
Stephanie has nursed a crush on quiet, handsome Ted for years. Every time she’s around him, however, she gets tongue-tied. She only seems to be able to find her words when she’s working with her students. Then, Ted’s sister unexpectedly arrives in town with his five-year-old niece in tow, and he needs Stephanie’s help, thrusting them together.
But a sudden emergency puts into sharp focus exactly how fragile life is, and he needs to decide whether or not to open his heart again.
Tropes: age gap, sworn off relationships, matchmaker, child’s teacher/nanny, cowboy, small town

This one starts out and you feel like you are lost in that cardshop’s channel and this is going to be another rich guy, small town girl romance but somewhere along the way you realize that it is more than that. It is a story of second chances at life, love, friendship, and maybe even a little redemption. But with enough steam to keep you flipping those pages.
Hailey’s entire world crashes around her. Her parents are killed in an accident, she is grieving, but she doesn’t bounce back fast enough for the man she is engaged to and thinks she loves, so he leaves Hailey in the care of her best friend.

Loch hasn’t been himself since his sister died. Now, he just needs some space, some time to get his head together before all the pressure his manager and label are putting on him to write the next greatest hit. When Loch rents out Hailey’s B&B for some rest, he never expects to meet the one person that is the balm to his soul.
As Hailey and Loch grow closer, all the red flags from Hailey’s relationship with her ex haunt her. She is just not ready to love. Loch falls hard. He starts feeling and hearing the music again. When Loch brings the rest of the group up to Hailey’s to work before going on tour, Hailey brefriends each member.

Percy’s Brides: A Double Trouble Romance by Ivy Hart was not what I expected, but I mean that in a good way. I must admit that the title threw me off a little as it implied, or I assumed, that it was a polyamorous love story — and I wasn’t sure I would enjoy that kind of story, especially in an historical setting. But I am always open to new reading experiences, so I took a chance and set off on the adventure. As I mentioned above, this is a (western) historical romance with a mail-order bride element, meddling family, a ‘western’ small town setting, some drama, angst, and challenges—where the characters not only find love unexpectedly but also get a chance at new beginnings. Percy is a businessman with big plans for his future- so what happens when his meddling family cause a little mayhem in his life, and not one, but two mail-order brides show up on his doorstep. You can guess how that went down. But Ms. Hart ensures that love overcomes all obstacles and ensures our MC’s HEAs. While there were some issues with the story and some inconsistencies/contradictions in the storyline, they didn’t detract too much from my first reading experience of Ivy Hart’s work. Happy Reading…

This is the story of RC and Scoob, a brother and sister who are doing everything they can to keep their lives together. It’s been a rough couple of years with their mom walking out and then their dad dying in a freak accident. RC is so excited when he gets a vehicle for him and Scoob and when he picks her up, life is grand. Scoob has good news too but it’s short-lived as RC basically kidnaps her and they head to Montana.
There are so many emotions in this story! One minute, RC is the best big brother ever and the next I want to smack him upside his head. I really felt for Scoob on many different levels as she’s trying her hardest but she’s only 12 years old and doesn’t have the level of maturity to be doing life all on her own. She’s resilient though and I admire her strength and courage.
This is a great read and I recommend it! It’s geared for middle grades but this “old girl” really enjoyed it.

I never pass up a book by this author, so I immediately grabbed this upon coming across it. Although most of their books have been more of a paranormal romance, they still knocked this romantic suspense out of the park. I truly enjoyed the inclusion of everyone and the character development. It’s a pretty quick read, but that doesn’t mean the author skimped on any details. This book does not skip any details or have any plot holes anywhere! I absolutely adore all of the characters and feel like each of their relationships are wonderful. If you’re ready for an adventure that has chemistry leaping off the pages while it twists and turns, please don’t pass this one up. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for us next!
This is the first book I have read by this author, so I wasn’t sure what I was getting myself into. I was blown away by the way the characters were developed as well as the incredible world-building! The plot is expertly crafted and flows so naturally, it’s truly astounding. My attention was gripped from the very first page to the very last with plenty of twists that I didn’t see coming! The banter between characters had me giggling quite a bit, but don’t let that fool you because this book is full of suspenseful surprises. I enjoyed that the pace doesn’t have any dips at all which allows it to power through at a great speed. If you’re looking for a quick and incredible paranormal story, this should be your next book!
This is a self help book that was interesting to read. It gives suggestions on how to start work on time and be successful at it. It is a book designed to give you renewed power to your life and how to balance it with work life. It has many great ideas and I look forward to putting some into use in my own life. A balance of work and life needs to happen to stay healthy. I really enjoyed this book. I highly recommend it.

This is a series that I have enjoyed reading from the first book. It is a series that just keeps getting better and better with each book. This is the sixth book which I highly suggest reading the previous books as well as they are just as great. I enjoyed this author and never hesitate to pick up one of her books. I enjoy her ability to pull me into the character’s world with ease and keep me turning pages to the end. This book is no different. It is a well written story about how far you will go to get away from your past traumas. But what will happen when that is what could take everything away? When a choice is to be made, what will Parker decide to do? I enjoyed these characters and what they bring to the story. Parker is my favorite and he is a strong character but like everything else, he has a weakness. What happens with him is something you don’t want to miss. I found this story to be fast paced and hard to put down. There is great growth throughout the story which makes it easy to read as well as entertaining. I really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

Dinopotamus Goes to School (Dinopotamus Series) by Lois Wickstrom. This is such a fun story for kids. Its the story of Dinopotamus and him wanting to do all the things the other kids do. When they kids all go to school he follows them. With him being larger than the other kids he can’t do all the things they do, at least not like the other kids, but he always tries and even manages doing most of them. He had so much fun he looks forward to going back tomorrow. This book teaches kids that its ok to be different and that you can usually do the same things with some modifications. Such a great lesson for kids and the illustrations are so cute as well. Add this to your child’s library today!

The first chapter couldn’t pull me in, but I read the rest in a few hours. Couldn’t wait to see how it played out! I love the afterlife (between worlds). It was an amazing read. Great story and makes you want more. Highly recommend!
Italian American (Jack & Mariella Book 2) by Luigina Vecchione. I loved the first book so much but this one was even better. Written to the point that I felt like I was right in Rome and in America back in the 50’s. This story stayed with a long time after I finished it and that to me is the sign of a great book. Its the continuing story of Jack & Mariella who have moved to America and Mariella is having a hard time fitting in. Not used to American ways and American people, its a rough beginning. Leaving her beloved Rome is one of the hardest things she’s ever done. Women are different in American, very judgy and gossipy and outsiders aren’t really welcome. When a tragedy has her traveling back to Rome she will have to make the hardest decision ever in coming back to American. She loves Jack but with him working all the time she misses him and wonders if she really needs to go back. Such a heartfelt love story that will leave you wanting more.

Ghost Talker (Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries Book 1) by Byrd Nash. This is such a fun paranormal story. Its a mystery along with all kinds of ghosts, secrets, possessions and house arrests. Its the story of Elinor who is a ghost talker and has all the tools to get the dead to talk to her. Many people seek her out to talk to their dead loved ones and the Inspector in town even seeks her help with local crimes. So when Elinor is taken to the morgue to investigate a body that was found in the canal. When she gets there and sees the Duke is present as well. Finding out the present Duke is involved puts a whole new pressure on Elinor to find out who the murder victim is and how he is connected to the Duke. Such a fun read full of mystery and intrigue. These remind me of cozy mysteries with paranormal thrown in. I love them so much and can’t wait to read the next one!
Ghost Talker is a paranormal suspense read. The world building was great. The character building was well thought of. The detailing you could tell the author put some thought into it. This book was a page turner for me. If you are into paranormal books, I highly recommend this series.
This book offers its readers both an interesting storyline and interesting characters that you will enjoy reading about. The leading lady, Elinor Chalamet, is a little on the snarky side (I think that is the word I am looking for) and that is a side of her I thoroughly enjoyed. This is a great start to the series and I look forward to seeing what comes next.

I never fail to be excited when I see a new book by this author and this one is no exception. As with all of the others I have read, it pulled me in right from the start. I was completely captivated by both the characters and the story. The book had all the intensity I love from this author which only made it so much better. I connected with these characters the moment I started reading about them. The push and pull between them only added to the chemistry that was evident. I loved watching the dynamic between them and how their relationship developed as the book progressed. This author really knows how to draw you into each and every story she writes and has firmly become one of my favourites. I would highly recommend everyone read not only this book but everyone she has written.

What an amazing sequel. I could feel the thriller to it. Again, I was pulled right in. I could feel the struggle and just felt that there was some real danger and trouble around the corner. This is an intense book and I was in it the whole way through. The characters were just right up there. I don’t think I’ve read a book with quite such a psychothriller feel to it. It’s a book that if you like family drama and danger, dysfunction and thrill,; you may like this one.
This is a book that grips you from the start. Identical twins with a dysfunctional family. There’s lot of drama and a few disorders. The characters are so well done into this story. I really could not put this down. It’s a well-written story that grabs your attention and pulls you right in. You’ll feel like you are right in the middle. I can’t wait to read the next book.

What an interesting concept for a book series! This was a quick and easy read from author C. A. King. In a sort of dystopian future, Fishermen Rod and Ned find a new species of fish at the bottom of the ocean. Little do they know havoc it will wreck on their small fishing town and the world. I did feel like the character development was lacking, it’s definitely more plot driven. But overall it was a fun and quirky read.

This is the sequel to the book Secrets In The Mirror. I strongly recommend reading that book first so that you get the fully understand the trauma that Gavin has suffered, it helps you to understand and appreciate what has drove him to be the way he is now suffering with PTSD. This is a psychological suspense story but what really stood out for me was the authors incredibly ability to allow the reader a deeper insight into the person’s life who suffer from PTSD, how they are affected but also how it affects their own family and everyone close to them. This subject is dealt with in a way that is informative but also respectful allowing the reader to fully understand just how many it affects people’s lives.
There is also family drama, and secrets that will be revealed. With Gavin’s parents dead and now his twin brother, his PTSD is worse than every before. He now has to return to his childhood home to deal with what is left of his parents home. However Gavin returning isn’t an easy thing. Not only does he have to deal with all the past trauma, but there is also secrets he is yet to unearth and with the added danger of people still looking for him Gavin knows this place isn’t safe for him anymore. But will confronting all of his past and demons be the thing he needs to start and heal himself?
Meanwhile at home his wife Katie is suffering her own problems. She loves Gavin and will do anything she can to help support him and help him. However, she knows feels like she is the only adult left in the marriage. Not only does she have to take care of Gavin but also their daughter and keep their business running. Can she continue the be strong and take care of everything including her husband’s mental health or will it get to much and mean she will have to make the decision to support her husband or protect their daughter.
This is a really moving and thought provoking story. My heart goes out to both Katie and Gavin because neither of them wants their life to be the way it is with PTSD controlling every aspects of their lives.
I read this with my littlest grandchildren and they enjoyed it so much. It’s a cute children’s book that teaches counting and about sea turtles. Colorful pictures keep their attention and mine asked so many questions. It would be a wonderful addition to any child’s library or preschool/early elementary teacher’s library.

Dinopotamis Goes to School is the first Lois Wickstrom book I have gotten my girls where she is the author and illustrator. While the pictures weren’t as good as the others, you can tell Lois Wickstrom put a lot of love into the story and art. I think my kids liked it best since it seemed more like art my oldest could try to copy, try being keyword. It was such a cute story and definitely for younger kids.

The Strategist is the 5th book in the WaterFyre Rising book by Nadia Han and can be read as a stand-alone
Arrow Holt- Abused by his alcoholic father for many years. When he got older he gained a fortune selling wine.
Vivian Vo- A dentist who helps families who don’t have insurance get the care they need. She also teaches self-defense classes to help people so they never end up in a situation like she has.
Arrow wants the girl- She rejects him twice but wants him too. She tries to keep her distance from him, but when their separate missions force them to work together, it makes everything harder. As they work together to find a missing girl and put an end to an international criminal organization they grow closer to one another. Their chemistry together, his understanding of her past and wanting to be there, the healing journey, the drama… just all of it, is off the wall! Such a great read. I will definitely be reading the other 4 books, as well as the 6th book in the series!
