My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wild Desire by Toya Richardson is the first book in The Protectors series. This is a good story with some likeable characters. There is a great mix of paranormal and romance, neither one seemingly to overshadow the other.
There were a few times in the story that I wish there has been a little more detail or it hadn’t felt quite a rushed but I think overall the author has created an enjoyable story. This book has set the background for the next books to follow. I thought this was was a thoroughly enjoyable book and I am looking forward to next one.

Cursed Luck by A.J. Renee is the fifth book in the Broderick Coven series. This is a brilliant series that just keeps on getting better.

Whisper Creek (A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 7)Whisper Creek by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Whisper Creek: A Logan McKenna Mystery by Valerie Davisson is the seventh book in the Logan McKenna series. This is a series that really does need to be read in order as it follows the same main characters all the way through. This book is yet another great addition to this series. Immediately you are pulled right back into Logan and her world. It is always so good to pick up where you left off with her, and so easy to go fall into the rhythm of the story.
I honestly don’t know how the author does it. Even seven books into the series and she still keeps everyone of them as fresh and new as the first. For me I think it shows the strength of her writing that I am just as excited about the seventh book as I am all the others. This is a great story that I would recommend.

Dating the It Guy by Krysten Lindsay Hager is a sweet young adult romance. It is a clean story that also deals with some deeper issues. There were times that I struggle to connect with the main characters, mainly Emme although I think the author does a good job of portraying the rollercoaster that is being a teenager. I liked that there was more to the story as well. With the family issues the characters experience it gave a little more depth to the book. This is an overall enjoyable book.

The book was entertaining and romantic as with all of this authors work. It was an easy story to read because I got so caught up in it all. This really is such a great book. I’m not sure how the next book can do any better but I am excited to find out.

Stormwood: A Haunting Paranormal Tale by Luna Mayfield is a well written and intriguing paranormal story. This is a new author to me so didn’t know what to expect when going into the book.

I think the author has done a great job of creating that same on edge feeling with this book as you get when you watch something of the same genre. I was engrossed in what was happening and wanted to see how it was all going to play out. This is a great way to have discovered a new author and I am excited to read more.
