Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sizzle. Sizzle. I am proud to state that from this day on I am officially a devoted fan of E.L. Roux. This is the first book I have read by them and my oh my it was a fantastic little read.
Jorden gave three years of her life loving a man that one little sip of a special drink had her world crashing down. A year has passed, and the pain still aches inside of her daily as her ex-fiancé Nathan and his new fiancé Tiffany visit her coffee shop daily. Many have asked her out in the time that’s passed but only Cane cracks her façade. Saying yes, she struggles with her internal emotions. She gave her heart away once only for it to be thrown away and she was not afraid that if she tried again and failed, she would forever be alone. Cane needs her help for a vision quest, for their exes Tiffany and Nathan. Giving in everything changes in the blink of an eye. Everything with Cane is easier and without overthinking.
What did Tiffany need to know? Why did Jorden see the answer? What did Cane see? This was a short, sweet read to kick off the month of June and honestly, I need more. I want to know what makes Volur different from Pixies, Nymphs, and other magic casters other than not being in cities much. I cannot wait to read book two, Unrewarded Love, to see more about Perri and Kyla’s story, and where their sparks lead them. Also, sidenote, that spice be extra spicy in this one the buildup and the ceremony missing the big finish was interesting. Overall, an extremely well written novella to fit in a single sitting without realizing you finished it already. This one will consume your time from start to finish.

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache Series) by E.L. Roux. This is such a wonderful fantasy romance. Its the story of Jorden who runs the local coffee shop and is just over the break up of her and her boyfriend. Unfortunately her ex has decided to bring his new girl into the shop every day and Jorden is sick of it. There is one person who has made her day better since the break up and that is Cane. She is in heat over him. When he makes her a deal she can’t refuse she thinks its a win/win situation. If the deal includes her being next to Cane more than she is all in. When he wants to create a spell that will see the future of her ex and his new girl, Jorden isn’t so sure she wants to see that but the offer of Cane makes her change her mind. As they spend more time together will Jorden realize she’s completely over her ex and ready to move on or will she realize she’s still in love with the jerk? Cane might just be what she needs to get over that hump. Such a great fantasy romance with a little spice.

Secrets, Lies and Betrayals (Protect and Honor Series Book 1)Secrets, Lies and Betrayals by Lynn Wood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an introduction to a new-to-me author, as well as a new series. This is a romantic suspense featuring Lea Milan. Lea was once known as Michaela Manning but due to circumstances that put her in harm’s way, she’s had to change her name. A decades old murder is still haunting her and now that her dad is rising in power, it’s putting all that she’s worked to move past in danger.

This book has a little bit of everything. Mystery, suspense, romance, lies, betrayal, murder, political tones, and more. It’s a very intriguing book that will hook you pretty quickly.

I look forward to the next chapter in this story. I do hope that we will hear more from Max!

Just Ducky (Weird Shifters)Just Ducky by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wasn’t sure what to think about this book at first. Ducky seemed to be a low level shifter that wasn’t going to amount to much. However, as soon as I got further into the story the more I smiled and even giggled when Ducky came face to face (kind of lol) with The King! This story is pretty different from other shifters stories so it really clumsy attention. The author did a fantastic job creating the characters, not just Ducky but all of them. I really liked the King’s mother Trisha.

Maddy is a little upset when she sees she’s received a DNA test from her grandmother for her birthday. I mean, what teenager would want to do this? Well, Maddy soon learns that she is one quarter villain. Life changes a little bit.

This is a fun twist on a fairy tale. It’s also a clean enough read that I can recommend it to young readers. I really appreciate that in a book! Prepare to read this in one setting, or at least where you can finish it in one or two because it will take off quickly!

One down, Two to go

This book was definitely unexpected. A unique blend of horror and humor make for a weirdly believable scenario.

It’s different and refreshing. There are two other books in this series ( so far ) and I’ve already committed to reading them too!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dinopotamus Goes to School is a part of the Dinopotamus Series by Lois Wickstrom. This is such a cute story about Dinopotamus. He watches the other children daily and does what they do. As they go to school he goes to school too. We get to see how fun it is for Dinopotamus to learn and he handles doing things even though he is different. This is such a great way to show children how fun learning is. It also teaches a great lesson on how to adapt to various situations. The illustrations are wonderful. They remind you of something you would be able to learn how to do yourself. This is another fun book by Lois Wickstrom.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed reading this suspenseful story. This is a newer author for me which I enjoyed how they brought the twist and turns to life. I also enjoyed their attention to details that made the characters come to life who pulled you into the story with ease. This is a well written story about Michaela. Her grandfather was assassinated in front of her and almost took her life as well. She has remained hidden for a long time. Now that she is back, she finds herself in the middle of a media mess. Maxwell was head of security back then and has been asked to do security presently. What will happen with the things that are lurking in the shadows? I enjoyed watching the growth from beginning to end of the characters and the plot. The twists and turns will have you coming back for more. This suspenseful story is one you don’t want to miss. I look forward to seeing what is next for this author. I highly recommend this book.

Man oh man! Such a wonderful book! You get hooked in so fast with this one! The first chapter had me cracking up! You will fall in love with these characters so quick. You’ll be yelling at them, laughing at them, and so much more while you follow their story. In this book you meet Libby and Zach. Libby has been in Woodvally Pines all of one day and she’s already caught her kitchen on fire. With toast! Yes, you read that right. Toast!! LOL. Who knew that toasters could just spontaneously burst into flames? She sure didn’t!! So she’s in shock still when the firemen come to the recue. Zach is trying to look over Libby to make sure she is okay. She’s in pink Disney pajamas, ranting about people keeping toaster fires a secret, and boy is he trying his hardest not to laugh! The spark between the two of them is instant. Only problem is Libby doesn’t date. So begins the rollercoaster of Zach trying to change her mind. Will these to burn each other before everything falls apart or will the spark ignite and last forever? These two are so cute and funny. You will really enjoy this funny romance. Plus there are hunky firefighters! 🙂

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging fantasy romance which kept me happily turning the pages. This is a fairly quick read as it’s a novella and is set in a world where magical and non-magical people live in harmony. Jordan is a seer who owns a coffee shop where she serves coffee with a special twist, however she’s been in a rut since her boyfriend Nathan dumped her. She now has to watch him with his new fiancé in her coffee shop everyday and it’s suppressing her seer emotions. Then Cane who is grouchy with an awkward smile and curled horns makes her body come alive again. Cane offers her a deal, for her to perform a Wiccan vision quest for Nathan and his fiancé and in return she will have a steamy night wrapped in his muscled arms. I liked the chemistry between Jordan and Cane and also how their relationship developed throughout the story. I felt the magical setting was brought to life through the descriptive narrative and I felt immersed in the story.

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Magic and Heartache series. This is a short story at only 96 pages long but it was action packed and i loved every part of it.
This is a paranormal romance with a mixture of magical beings and a coffee shop with an added touch of something special in each drink.
One of the owners is Jordan. She loves her coffee shop and how it brings everybody together but there’s one thing she doesn’t like and that’s her ex and his new lover showing up at her work everyday.
As much as she hates to see them she can’t tell them to never return.
There is one person that brightens her day and that is Cane.
When Cane approaches her to help him with a spell to see the future for her ex and his new partner at first Jordan doesn’t want to help. However the more she learns of the ritual, and the opportunity to see more of Cane proves to be the thing that seals the deal.

What happens when they get a more intimate knowledge of each other? Will the spark between them explode into a fire or will it sizzle out? And is Jordan even ready to move on? Will she lose her chance at love again by still being hung up on her ex?

For a short story this packs so much into it and I can’t wait to read more in this series.

Summer of MudSummer of Mud by Rebecca Bischoff
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an interesting story. I liked the suspense and drama that follow these two along. This pulls on the ol’heart strings for a couple reasons. None that I will mention because of spoilers but believe me they are there. I really kept tuned into these two main character’s, which are kids. I felt sorry for them and was very suspicious of RC more than once. This is told from Scoob’s point of view and while she is a twelve year old she seems much older at times. In the end it shows the strength, endurance and love can help some prosper. I loved all the Dad sayings and thoughts that ran through Scoob’s head on repeat.

Overall this is a wonderful story that kept me turning pages so I could figure RC out. The ending is good and had me feeling complete with a little wonder. Thanks for letting me come along on your trip.

One Quarter VillainOne Quarter Villain by Cori Cooper
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I just devoured “One Quarter Villain” by Cori Cooper, and I’m still reeling from the delightful surprise that awaited me within its pages (early on the book, the. quote “Every good fairy tale needs a villain” hooked me).
Who says a villain can’t have a happy ending? Not Cori Cooper, that’s for sure! In this charming and lighthearted tale, Cooper challenges the traditional notion of villainy by crafting a relatable and lovable protagonist who just happens to be one-quarter villain.

Cooper’s writing is engaging and effortless, making it easy to become invested in Maddy’s journey. The author’s humor and wit are on full display, particularly in the character of Maddy’s best friend, Leo Romano, who is the perfect foil to Maddy’s straight-laced personality. Their banter and friendship are a highlight of the book.

One of the most impressive aspects of “One Quarter Villain” is its thoughtful exploration of identity and morality. Cooper asks important questions about what makes us good or evil, and whether our choices are shaped by our DNA or our environment. The book’s themes are timely and relevant, making it a great read for anyone looking for a story that will linger long after the final page is turned.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Shayna is just trying to live her life after divorce. With two kids that depend on her, she does not have time for romance or even the time to entertain the possibility. Burke shares a best friend with Shayna and cannot help but be intrigued by her. Having just been burned by an ex-fiancée, he is not sure he wants to dip his toes into the dating pool again. However, he sees what others gloss over when he looks at Shayna. Can they find their way to each other? Or will past baggage get in the way of their possible happily-ever-after?!

This was a fun book to read. I feel like the author did a wonderful job capturing single mom life, and dysfunctional family issues. I could not help but be drawn to Shayna and Burke’s story. While I cannot identify with all the aspects of this book, the human emotion captivated me. I did not pick up book one in this series and only realized about part way through that I must have missed it. It would have been nice to read the first one, but I do not feel like it was necessary as there was enough background information given throughout. If you are looking for a quick, fun, summer read, I would pick this up!

Fire Meets Fire: Wretched Soulz MCFire Meets Fire: Wretched Soulz MC by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another gripping MC romance by an author who I love and who never disappoints! I was excited to be back in the ‘Wretched Soulz MC’s’ world once again and this time the storyline focuses on the Clubs Prez Chaz. As the Prez he is responsible for keeping money in the Clubs coffers, keeping his brothers out of jail and his enemies at bay. The MC have a reputation and so can’t show any weakness by ensuring men who cross them don’t live long. So Chaz is surprised to learn that someone is stealing from them, and even more shocked to discover the thief is a woman. Chaz is then torn about how to treat Helo, if she had been a man then he would have killed her for this crime but should he treat her like a man or not. To complicate things further Chaz is attracted to Helo and is actually impressed by how she stands up to him, challenges him and beats him fighting hand to hand. He soon learns that she’s not invincible and that she has her own demons, but with so many of his own battles Chaz doesn’t know if he wants to take on hers as well. As usual the characters and setting are brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative making me feel fully immersed in the world of the ‘Wretched Soulz MC’. The chemistry between Chaz and Helo sizzled off the page and led to some steamy scenes. The storyline is full of excitement, drama, suspense and of course romance which made this a real page turner. I will now wait impatiently for the next book in the series!

Greetings from Asbury Park by Luigina Vecchione is a heart capturing story about war, the strength of family and still having the room to love deeply after witnessing so much devastation. I was absolutely captivated by this story from beginning to end! I loved Mariella, her family, Jack. The author put a lot of heart into telling this story and it shines through radiantly. Splendid writing and detail. The characters were all very realistic with personalities and interactions to match the setting.

Highly recommend to any lovers of historical fiction who enjoy a story that is so perfectly descriptive that you are experiencing and feeling everything with the characters- from their fears to sharing their beautiful heartfelt moments. Very well done! I’m very excited to start the next book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Italian American by Luigina Vecchione is a beautifully written sequel to Greetings from Asbury Park, where here the reader can experience Jack and Mariella settling into their new lives together in America. There is a lot of turmoil for Mariella leaving behind the life and everyone she knew to travel to an unfamiliar land where acceptance of immigrants is not so easily found. As things start to seemingly begin to calm, terrible news brings Mariella back to Rome and she wonders if she can really bring herself to leave again.

I really felt like this was a strong sequel to the first story. Sometimes with sequels, the storytelling is more rushed and loses its luster. However, the author really kept the momentum of this story rolling throughout. You could perhaps read as a standalone, but I highly recommend reading both stories. This story was raw, emotional, heartbreaking and heartwarming all in one book, and I loved feeling everything along with the characters. I was not disappointed at all. I look forward to more stories by this author in the future!

She’s lived her life in hiding under a different name until her secret identity is leaked. She’s not safe but can Maxwell keep her protected this time? I don’t want to give away anything else.

Sometimes all I need is a good novella, although at times I did wish the book would have gone on longer.. Jordan’s ex irritated me, why constantly show up at your ex girlfriend’s place of work, especially with your new fiancé? What was he trying to do here? Jordan is trying to get over her past and move forward and they just keep showing up! I love Cane, I love Cane and Jordan together even more! This story is so fun with the world they live in, and watching Cane and Jordan’s relationship build and progress made it more so. The steamy scenes were fantastic. I hope to see more of them in the future and look forward to reading about Perri!

Wonderful book! I loved everything about this book. There is so much to learn and many weird and fun facts. I like that on each animal the author tells what a group of that particular animal is, like who knew a group of giraffes is called a tower? So fun! Kids are already interested in animals and this book is great for them to learn about some of their favorites. I really appreciate all the work that went into all the research and facts on each animal in this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A wonderful and simply perfect small town romance. I love how Libby and Zack chance meet, due to a house fire caused by her toaster. That cracked me up, especially her thinking and taking allowed about the toaster. Zack is infatuated right away and I fall in love with the way he falls in love with her. His possessive moments of her are also super hot. Her reasons for not wanting a relationship are valid but, all the “love” she saw growing up was with her mom and her boyfriends, never her, she needs to take a chance. Her friends Rachel and Cat are the perfect girlfriends to have in her corner and to give it to her straight. I really look forward to Cat and Cody’s story. From the way they interact at the end of this book, I know it will be a fun ride.

Unrequited Love (Magic and Heartache, #1)Unrequited Love by E.L. Roux
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Unrequited Love is a sexy, sweet, short novella. Jorden is still trying to get over her ex, but it has been hard since he comes in everyday to her coffee shop with his new fiancé. Cane asks her to perform a ritual that involves them touching skin to skin. Will Jorden join Cane in this ritual to determine if her ex’s fiancé can have children together?! Why does Cane insist that it has to be her? If you would like to try a taste of supernatural romance (that is not vampires and werewolves) it is worth the read. I enjoyed every page of this novella; my only complaint is how short it is. I want more! I feel with more volume added to the story the characters would be more fleshed out, but they do show significant growth in the short number of pages we are given. Overall, it is worth the read and can be finished in one sitting.
