Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils MC #1) by Manda Mellett – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

Turning Wheels (Satan's Devils MC, #1)Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It has been quite a long time since I read a MC book, and this book was fabulous. I was totally sucked in from the beginning to the end. My heart really went out to Sophie and the story of why she ended up with a horrifying physical injury. You wonder what kind of monster would intentionally try and harm another human being, I could never imagine. Then we have Wraith, what can I say but wow holy hotness. I believe Sophie really took him by storm. Sophie needed protection the most as someone is out to get her. Horse and Cut (other characters) are there to rescue Sophie from a threat and they take her a MC in Arizona where she meets the gang including Wraith. One of my favorite characters as well in the story is Peg, just made me laugh and also a protector. I believe Wraith and Sophie together is pure hotness. If you like a MC story with mystery and pure hot moments, this book is definitely for you. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Heart of Stone (The Stone Series Volume 1) AUDIO BOOK by Dakota Willink – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

This audiobook is so intense…no doubt many hot moments as well. When Alexander bumps into Krystina there are sparks no doubt. This story not only has intense, hot moments but there is definite past traumatic times for both Alexander and Krystina. The dominate side of Alexander is hot! At first I was a bit annoyed at Krystina’s character. I found her a little bratty and immature even though she is a very strong and independent woman. I change my thought on that by the end of the story and you find out why. I see why she didn’t want to lose herself or her independence. Great audio and looking forward to finding out what happens in the next book.

Hell Hath No Fury (Life Is Hell Book 2) by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

Hell Hath No Fury (Life is Hell #2)Hell Hath No Fury by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yes!!! This book was fantastic. After reading book 1 I could not wait to read the 2nd book to this series, and boy it did NOT disappoint. I am loving the hot vibe between Millicent and Sheridan. Book 2 has Millicent being “stalked” by a hellhound and no doubt a creepy doll. Can I just say, nope no way when it comes to creepy dolls! We learn the reason why Millicent is being stalked and who is behind this mystery. I also love that we still have other characters in this book and you also meet Sheridan’s parents. I am ALL about this series with demons, witches, a nix, shifters, a fallen angel and we eventually get to meet a fairy. So looking forward to starting book 3!

Courage of UsCourage of Us by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The emotions I feel about this book………I feel like I was on a roller coaster ride. My heart just ached for Patience and Duke. Putting pieces back together once you lose touch with someone you love. Patience dealing with an abusive husband and Duke trying to win her trust back, with a secret of his own, when he returns from the Marines. This book was so emotional and heart breaking. I was cheering Patience and Duke on to have their happy ending.

Fantastic! This book is mystery, dark and dangerous, but I loved it. I couldn’t imagine being watched like Katie was everyday since your the daughter of a drug lord.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great start to a series and Author Phoebe Alexander does not disappoint! Cy was sent to be “undercover” for his parents theme park. At first Cy, I was not a fan, but in the end I was wrong and ended up loving his character. Jolie, as a single mom has secrets of her own. When Cy and Jolie are together lots sparks and heat, which I love!! There is some suspense & mystery as well in this book. Cannot wait to read more books in this series.

ChasedChased by Felicity Brandon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wow….wow…wow, this story. Definitely a very good read. Chase and Allegra the chemistry no doubt is undeniable. Chase, leader of large organized crime family, at first I really loved his bad boy persona. I also admired Allegra’s strong character going to school to better herself in law. Then something happens that Chase loses his trust and Allegra betrays him. Chase is totally ruthless, but Allegra cannot stay away. Their relationship makes me want to shake them both! It is very intense for sure. This book is very good read and I recommend if you like bad boy, dark mafia books.

The Cross of CiaranThe Cross of Ciaran by Andrea Matthews
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was very interesting and a good read. I really enjoyed the paranormal romance with time travel and mystery. Caitlin is an archaeologist finds Ciaran, whom is a priest that is over 1500 years old. Who is Ciaran and why was he buried? The story does go from present to past, and I liked that and it was easy to read and I loved the time travel element. I loved Ciaran’s character, but Caitlin was a bit to strong for me. I cannot wait to see how the story continues.

Sleeping Angel (Soul Connection, #2)Sleeping Angel by Nikki Lynn Barrett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Can I just say, I loved this book. There are so many twists, turns and murder mystery. My heart breaks for Logan, whom loses his sister, Andi, by murder and drowns himself in alcohol. Everything changes when Logan blames Angel for not preventing Andi’s murder and not coming forward with the events that takes place and Logan hits Angel with his car. Was it an accident or attempted murder? I also love that it ties in book one characters of Scott and Zelda. This is a great read if you love mystery, secrets and ghosts. Nikki Lynn Barrett is truly becoming one of my favorite authors <3.

Very good read. Andy is half human and half fairy, and the story goes between caring for her dying mother and going back to her childhood days. Parts of the story were hard to follow for me when going back and forth, but overall, the story flowed all together. My heart goes out to Andy as she deals with many loses in her life. This story is magical and a good read relaxing day.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Loved this paranormal romance!!!!!! This story flowed so well and the Zayed men…….hot hot hot!! Lillie’s character is very strong willed and holds no punches, my type of girl :). When Lillie meets the Zayed, who helped her when she was in need, all that she knew of them was totally opposite to how she feels about them. The story has romance, action, some mystery on who the Zayed really are and where do they come from. I cannot say enough of this book and give the story away, but this book is fantastic and I cannot wait to read Part 2!!!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow, I was very surprised of how much I really loved this book. It made me think to present day as we are dealing with the COVID19 pandemic and this story is a long the lines of a epidemic that had a deadly outbreak in the water. The main character, Cam, really pulled at my heart strings, making the ultimate decision to leave this family to continue to live off of an island that had to be self sustaining. The emotions on his grief leaving his family, I could not imagine having to make that decision. Living among a selection of other people and building this new “world” that is self sustaining is intriguing. There is so much to this story and I am looking forward to continuing the series to see what happens next.

Great start to a series. This story definitely has some twists and turns I did not see coming. The plot flowed so easily in this book. I love the chemistry between Susan and Eric, even though Eric is a bit set in his ways and stubborn, there is not denying their attraction. When a Walker family member passes away, there are family secrets that come out…..and I was shocked on some things that do happen (I wont give them away). This was a easy read and and I did not want the story to end!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am a huge YA fan, and enjoyed this YA psychological thriller. Talk about creepy, the convent is hiding secrets……. or so you think. I enjoyed the characters, my heart aches for Paloma and her past with her dad. The character, Rubia, boy oh boy, when you think she is trying to have open arms and befriend Paloma, whom is new, Rubia is manipulative, and you catch on in the story. Only part that I am on the fence is the ending, I wanted more and it felt a bit abrupt. Overall a very good story with lots of twists and turns.

This was a great story. I loved the 6 characters and their unique paranormal abilities.
