Luke (Default Distraction #4)Luke by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luke by AS Roberts is the fourth book in the Default Distraction series. This is another fantastic addition to this series and probably my favourite one so far. I loved Luke and Nikki! I loved their connection and the pasts that drove them to each other. The ways they were finding to handle it all and the journey that entailed was amazing to read about.
I always enjoy the single parent stories and I loved the way the author handled this one. It felt like such an effortless story that just pulled you in simply by its good writing. This is a brilliant book and a fantastic series. I would highly recommend reading both!

Unlikely to Fit (A Parker Lake Novel Book 2)Unlikely to Fit by Olivia Sherwood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Unlikely To Fit by Ashlie Knapp is the second book in her Parker Lake series. This book can be read as a stand-alone although I would always recommend reading book one first.

Breckin has it all – a great life, great husband. Moving back home is the icing on the cake. Until her perfect husband leaves her for someone else. Broken, and struggling to pick up the pieces Breckin has to find ska way to start over in a town where it is impossible to stay anonymous.
Griffin is used to people looking at him and thinking they know everything. The bike and the tattoos portray one image. However underneath it all Griffin is nothing like his persona. Still grieving from the loss of his girlfriend he concentrates in looking after his grandmother and running his bar.
When Breckin and Griffin start to work together the attraction between them may just be enough to start to heal them both.

I loved reading about these characters. They were so well suited. The story grabbed me from the start and I found that I flew through this book with ease. This series as a whole was the first from the author for me and I am excited to read more.

Blood Oath (Mafia Elite, #2)Blood Oath by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Blood Oath by Amy Mckinley is the second book in the Mafia Elite series. This book is every bit as exciting as the first book. I knew I had to make sure I had time to read all of this book when I started it because I would not be able to put it down  and that is exactly what happened.
The chemistry between these characters is unreal. It is evident in every page and completely believable. I was drawn into it and could not stop reading about them.
Every single book by this author is just as good as the last. I never hesitate to pick up a book by this author and this book highlights exactly why. I would highly recommend this book and every book this author has written.

Kingdom of Embers: Extended Finale by Tricia Copeland is the first book in the Kingdom Journals series. This is a fantastic Paranormal YA book and a great start to a new series.

I thought the main character was a breath of fresh air. She was relatable and engaging. I really enjoyed delving into her story. I wanted to know more and felt like we took the journey with her.
This is a brilliant start to a new series and I can’t wait to read the second book.
