My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was hilarious. My nephew and I sat down and read this, and it took forever to get through between his giggles and my own laughs. It has an adorable concept and a fresh perspective on how your dog really thinks. I definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a book to enjoy with their children.

The Wolf’s Shadow (The Lycanthropy Files Book 1) by Cecilia Dominic – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

The Wolf's Shadow (The Lycanthropy Files #1)The Wolf’s Shadow by Cecilia Dominic
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An original take on the paranormal shifter’s genre. I never quite saw it coming from the direction it did. This book will definitely take you through some turns as to who is behind it all. A paranormal romance mystery it brings it’s ‘A’ game in the science aspect as well.

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

The Traitor, An Underground Bad Boys SeriesThe Traitor, An Underground Bad Boys Series by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book two in the trilogy and all I can say is she definitely keeps the embers burning in this one because it is hot!!! The m/m/f action had me tearing through this story fast. You don’t have to read the first in the trilogy to enjoy this book although I would recommend it to get the full experience. The characters are rich and complex, and the story delivers beyond just the erotic scenes. India Kell’s delivers once again.

The Debt Collector (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 1) by India Kells – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

The Debt Collector (An Underground Bad Boys Romance)The Debt Collector by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the trilogy and oh boy what a start. It’s erotic and has all the m/m/f action I didn’t realize I was even looking for. Locke and Gage are drool worthy in every way and the honorable/bad boy thing they have going is hot as hell. This will most certainly be a reread for me and a recommendation to others looking for a steamy book with a great plot to boot.

The Fighter (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 3) by India Kells – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

The Fighter (An Underground Bad Boys Romance, #3)The Fighter by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

All I can say is OH. MY. This book will knock your socks off and leave you wanting more. This is the ending to the trilogy and while you could get by with reading it as a standalone novel it is a thousand times better reading all 3. This book has M/M/F action and is hot as sin. I’ve read a lot of this type of steamy erotic, but this is one of my favorites. Not only is it good in the layout of those scenes but the story itself is riveting as well. Oftentimes authors will skimp on the plot to pack it full of just the sexual parts, but India Kells has written a book well worth reading even if you wanted to skim over the sexual parts. (Who would want to?!). This will definitely be a reread for me in the future and I cannot wait to see what else she puts out.

Manipulator’s War (Ruarnon Trilogy Book 1) by Elise Carlson – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

Manipulator's War (Ruarnon Trilogy, #1)Manipulator’s War by Elise Carlson

If you’re looking for a realistic-fantasy world building trilogy this is the series for you. This book starts out a little slow but quickly pulls you in with its dynamic and diverse cast of characters. What most surprised me with this story is how human the characters were written. It was rewarding to watch the characters struggle with their place and positions they all have. Seeing the representation of Ruarnon as a Non-binary was amazing. This isn’t my first book containing an LGBTQ+ character but is my first non-binary and it was awesome seeing things from their perspective. I’ll be anxiously awaiting the next book on the trilogy.

Sashimi (Evil Sushi Book 2) by C.A. King – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

Sashimi (Evil Sushi #2)Sashimi by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was awesome. Watching the interplay of the military dealing with this kind of apocalyptic disaster was uniquely original, especially adding in the element of essentially mer-people. C.A. King delivers a captivating narrative that makes it hard to put this book down. It’s a fresh take on the usual apocalyptic scenarios. It is book 2 in the series and I would definitely recommend picking up the first to avoid confusion.

Spring’s Calling (Seasons of Magic Book 1) by Sarah Biglow – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

Spring's Calling (Seasons of Magic, #1)Spring’s Calling by Sarah Biglow

This is the beginning of a series, and it definitely sets it up for much more magic and mayhem to come. Ezri is a strong female protagonist while still being reliably human in her limits. There are so many moments I couldn’t help but sympathize with her and her struggles with both her family and work. If you’re looking for a paranormal detective story that kicks butt this is definitely my first pick for you. It will leave you on the edge of your seat and craving more. I will have to be getting my hands on book two to see where we will go now.

Lost Soul (War of Destiny Book 1) by Theresa Van Spankeren – Review by Kaitlyn Leatherwood

Lost Soul (War of Destiny # 1)Lost Soul by Theresa Van Spankeren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book one in the War on Destiny series and oh boy I cannot wait to read the next. Juliana the protagonist made me laugh with her snappy remarks and sarcasm, and made me cry with every heartbreak she is faced with which are numerous. She starts out as a stubborn 15 year old and blossoms into a force to be reckoned with. I found myself rooting for Adam and Samuel at every turn hoping someone could give her all the love she needs. It’s been a while since I have read a book as quickly as I finished this one. This book was a lovely read with a fresh take on vampires that left me thirsting for more.
