Auctioned (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 3)Auctioned by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book. It is the 3rd book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series. Even though the characters are linked in previous books  but they are so well written that they can be read as a standalone. The characters are well evolved that you feel like you are living in their lives. This story contains everything i love danger, steamy romance and an attraction that should not be.

Bryanna has been caught in a trafficking ring. The captors have someone on her that means she can’t leave them. Even when she is rescued by Damian.

Damian  has been sent to rescue her my his employer Jenny. He knows it’s going to be a challenge but what he doesn’t know and realise is that the attraction between him and his assignment would be so strong.
Can Damian save Bryanna from the captors? Will Bryanna trust him enough to allow herself to be rescued? Can the attraction between them become something more or is this just got to be strictly business?

Red's Tangled Tale (The Untold Stories, #2)Red’s Tangled Tale by Suzanna Lynn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second  book in The Untold Stories Series. I really enjoyed this book. It was definately not what I expected which was great. Some retelling of old tales can become a bit boring as authors try not to stray to far from the original. However this one blows the original story and the the thought you have about Red Riding Hood to bits.

In this story Red is a strong young woman looking for revenge against the wolves that killed her father. She is strong willed and determined. When an old friend James Hook returns with a mission Red jumps at the chance to help him. Joining Hook on his mission leads Red down  a path she never would have dreamed of and introduces more characters we know and love.

Love Between the LinesLove Between the Lines by A.D. Brazeau
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a lovely funny chick-lit book. The characters were well written and really relatable. The relationship between the friends is on that I recognise as it sounds like me and my friends which makes the story even more fun and relatable.

All Marlowe wants is a quiet life. Safe in her world where the only romance she has it through the books she writes. With good friends and her pets she wants nothing else in life.

Heath is a model who had decided to leave the spotlight and work in the family business. He feels its time to slow down and settle down. And the women of his choosing is Marlowe.

Can he show her what romance is like when it’s not written on a page? Can Marlowe let her guard down enough to give Heath a chance?

Two Hearts, One Stone (Boots and Babies)Two Hearts, One Stone by Leslie Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this cowboy romance. It has all the elements of a good romance, the womanizer  cowboy and the smart woman trying to resist his charms.
The characters are really well written that you can’t help feel invested in their story. Even though the book is a short read it contains a full story which is nice as some short reads feel like they are missing parts.

The first is his baby niece. When she is left by her mother Stone has to change his ways from the playboy cowboy to become the little girls father. Stone has no idea what to do so he goes to the only person he can think of Emmy.

/0 Comments/in /by

Daisy's Darkness (Wheels & Hogs #6)Daisy’s Darkness by D.M. Earl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an interesting and emotional read. It is a book for young adults. It covers issues that some young people deal with and the author covers sensitive topics in a way that is respectful but also informative.

Daisy was a normal girl. Until her life starts being overtaken by a darkness she doesn’t understand. The things in her life that brought her joy don’t any more. Her family are trying to help but Daisy feels like she can’t reach out to them.

Add to all this confusion the fact Daisy is being bullied constantly and forcing herself to purge after every meal and it is a situation that is unhealthy and gets worse as time progresses.

Is there a way through this darkness? Can Daisy fight her demons? Can she reach for the help she desperately needs? Or will the darkness consume her completely.

This is the first  book in The Blood Of The Pirate series. I really enjoyed this story. It is a mixture of Pirates of the Carribean and Indiana Jones. It’s an action packed adventure from the first page. I can’t wait to see how to books unfold.

Add to this the fact that the journey isn’t plan sailing, with mysteries and curses around every corner can they find what x is hiding. Is it riches or is it something more sinister and magical.

With the queen’s navy on their tale to retrieve the item before Evie and the pirates reach it it becomes a race against time.

Wow I really don’t know how to put into words how amazing this  book is. I have never read a book that had affected me so much. My heart was racing all the way through. Its a deeply moving book that deals with sensitive issues such that could be upsetting for some people but the author writes with such care and honesty that why it’s hard to read in some places it really opens your eyes to the pain that some people have to go through. The characters of Jordan and Hunter are really well written. They are two messed up people who find containment and happiness with each other, but will the demons of their pasts destroy their happiness?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a fun and magical young adult book. I really enjoyed that the main character was a boy and a shy boy that doesn’t fit in. The authors portrayal of the character and the world around him really creates the scene.

Liam is a 16 year old boy. He has a special gift. He can see colours around people but only when they are up to no good. As much as he tries to stay away from trouble it always seems to be attracted to him.

Through this story he has his life saved by an unlikely person, he makes an enemy and finds a strange shell on a school field trip. What the shell is and what it means is one mystery that gets unravelled and leads Liam into some dangerous situations.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a refreshing read. It is set from the perspective of the lead male which is a nice change for a story about romance. The setting of a camping expedition is also something different. The characters are well written with the lead character being  very witty and funny.

Alex Jones is an author. When he needs inspiration for his new book his friends Luke and Penny offer to help him out.
They take him on a camping expedition to show how what it’s like to get back to nature.

However Alex is a city boy. Being in the middle of nowhere, pitching tents and building fires is not his idea of fun. The only thing making it bearable is Penny.

As the 10 days progress Alex’s feelings for Penny grows but not knowing how she feels should he take the risk or keep his feelings to himself. Also how will Luke react when his feelings are shown.

This is the 6th book in the Spicetopia series and these books just keep getting better and better. Even though they are a series they can be read as a standalone as they each focus on a different couple.

Determined to have an open mind and to celebrate their anniversary Calvin books them on a trip to the best adult only theme park Spicetopia. Paisley is so excited about this experience and wants to make the most of it before their baby arrives. Calvin wants to be open minded enough that Paisley can 100% enjoy herself.
However something is wrong. It could just be the pregnancy hormones but in Paisley’s eyes Calvin is taking to this a bit to easily.

Is Calvin hiding secrets from her? Is there lies in her marriage she doesn’t know about? Even though they are madly and completely in love is their relationship strong enough to stand the temptations and experiences Spicetopia throws their way.

This is the second book in The Mercenaries Series. It is also the first book I have read so they don’t need to be read in order for them to be enjoyed.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an interesting book to read. The author did a great job with the characters and the story. The only thing I found hard was the jumping from past to present and back again. With the mixture of stories the main character makes up and the actual story it gets a little bit confusing at times.

Vince is a undercover Special Branch Agent. His next job is to go undercover and infiltrate a British Jihadi group.
Going by the name of Zami he sets out to befriend two men and get accepted into the group. What he doesn’t expect is to fall for their sister.

This is the 9th book in the Ash Park series and its just as good as the previous books. The stories are all gripping, full of twists and turns and it keeps you guessing from start to end. I love the character of Detective Petrosky. He is a hard character to get to know and love. With a history of alcoholism and a relapse he finds life hard but he still does his job 100% leaving no stone unturned.

This book starts with a simple breaking and entering case but as Petrosky and his partner Jackson start to dig deeper they start to unravel a mystery that leads them into a dark criminal world and also leads them to look closer to home.

It’s a really gripping story with twists that you won’t see coming.

The Liminal Space (Antipodes #2)The Liminal Space by T.S. Simons
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second  book in the Antipodes Series and it was just as intriguing as the first book. The characters are well developed and the book is easy to read. The story keeps you hooked all the way through as you follow the journey of the characters as they adapt to their new way of life.

Cam has matured in this book and after hearing that someone he loves could still be alive he sets out to find them. The journey is challenging and makes him question things he knows and thinks about love and loyalty. The main question is if given the opportunity to redo life would you take the same course with the same mistakes or would you change your plans maybe for the better or maybe for the worst.

It’s a really thought provoking theme and set in time when the world is destroyed by a disease  and only few people surviving its an interesting concept.

I really enjoyed this twist and remake of the story of Beauty and the Beast. I loved the characters and how it kept the story of the spell being broken by love.

On the edge of town in a house lives Sir Griffin Garrick. He is a man who likes his own company and the rumours are he is a horrible rude man. Some even call him a beast.

So when he wins a game with a local man his prize is to have his 3 daughters. How these 3 women would change his life he could never have seen happening.

Lily is the eldest and set to be married she takes the job of housekeeper to restore the beautiful home to its former glory.

Rose is the middle daughter and her love of flowers and gardens sees her tending to the garden. She hopes to bring it back to life and also to thaw the heart of the beast.

Poppy is the youngest and as a student of magic she is tasked to work out what or who caused the spell on Griffin and how they can remove it.

Little do all 3 sisters know that the answer is easier than they think and all it takes is love to break the curse. Love and the help of a red rose.
