Shameless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls Book 2) by KG Fletcher – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Shameless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #2)Shameless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this story about Walt and Elyse. This can be read as a standalone even if it is book 2 of the series.
I love that this authors characters are “normal” like everyone else and not made to be some unattainable fantasy but that you can actually visualize this happening to you or someone you know with the day to day ins and outs of life. I will be going back to read this again and recommend it!
Won’t be giving anything away you’ve got to read the story for yourself 🙂

Ruthless Hawke (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 1) by Gwyn McNamee – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Ruthless Hawke (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 1)Ruthless Hawke by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Who doesn’t love a secret baby story? Add in the Hawke family and you have a great story.
This is the second generation series so it’s not necessary to read the Hawke family series (but I recommend it highly! )
We meet these 2 in their quick prequel and now we get their story, with their identities this time! And wow what a read this was!
I don’t give spoilers so I won’t give anything away or ruin any part of this story, but wow the chemistry here was enough to melt my Kindle.
Must read!

The White Knight Cowboy (The Studs of Clear Creek County) by Stacy-Deanne – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

The White Knight Cowboy Stacy-DeanneThe White Knight Cowboy Stacy-Deanne by Stacy-Deanne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While historical reads aren’t my go to reads usually this one really drew me in quickly and kept my attention the whole story.
This is about Lovely Jo and Dusty and the tangled webs they find themselves in. I won’t give much away as the Synopsis gives a pretty good overview and it’s a quick read. The author really knows how to capture you and want to keep reading while giving a read story.

Shore Lodge by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Shore Lodge: A high-stakes psychological thriller (The Millersville series)Shore Lodge: A high-stakes psychological thriller by Susan Specht Oram
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book sounded interesting per the synopsis so I dove right in. It wasn’t exactly what I expected which was a good thing as it kept me guessing for a bit.

We start off with a bang and then pretty quickly we are thrown on a crazy ride that I hope and pray ever ever happens to me nor anyone I know where family is concerned.
I won’t spoil the book as it’s best read to understand and get the whole story.

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great story!
I felt at ease with these 2 as they were domesticating very fast for a little girl but also learning each other and fighting the attraction.
This didn’t go the way I thought it would but it went the way it should have in the end. I really loved this book as I was able to dive in and immerse myself easily.

Evan (Billionaire Blind Dates #2)Evan by Toni Denise
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am really enjoying this series. While the 2nd book it can be read as a standalone.
Evan and Kayla are business partners but what happens when they’re paired in Blind Date?
I love the idea of an actual blind date, where you get to know the other person for who they are without the worry of superficial things like looks, body type etc being the first thing to notice and dismiss or gravitate towards.
I loved these two and how this story unfolded, grabbed me from the start.

StoryTeller’s Tale (Wretched Soulz MC) by Manda Mellett – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

StoryTeller's Tale: Wretched Soulz MCStoryTeller’s Tale: Wretched Soulz MC by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author never ceases to amaze me with the way they tell a story.
This is the start of a new series and I am so excited!
We get the story of StoryTeller, who based off his name likes to tell stories with detail and also enjoys a good book. When the unexpected happens with a book he found, he feels compelled to step in, despite the risks at stake.

I so enjoyed this book, the details as usual make you feel like you’re right there with the characters, screaming and hoping for the best in every scenario. If you like bikers, book lovers and action then this is the book for you.

Savage Start (Hidden Valley Elite Prequel) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Savage Start: A High School Bully Romance: Hidden Valley Elite PrequelSavage Start: A High School Bully Romance: Hidden Valley Elite Prequel by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This prequel was packed full and obviously was left with many questions I am sure will be addressed in book 1. And if this is how the prequel is then I can’t wait for the rest of the series. We have secrets, lies, and many other things I am waiting to dive into. This series had a lot of names and moving parts but the author did well to focus on who we are following and set the stage for book 1.

Fear Inc: Volume 3 by Melinda Valentine – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Fear Inc.: Volume ThreeFear Inc.: Volume Three by Melinda Valentine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kasper had me fuming mad in the beginning of this book so it was going to take some convincing on his part to win me over.
Krysta felt like someone I would want to be bff’s with as she was funny, foul mouthed and takes no crap and can defend herself.
These two won me over pretty quickly as they just melded together. Yes they had a past but who doesnt. And Kasper did finally win me over.

I really enjoyed this and now I want to read the first 2 for those stories. Can be read as a standalone. This author brought this story to life with these characters and they felt relatable and real.

Throwing the Curve (Playing for Keeps Book 2) by Lauren Fraser – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Throwing the CurveThrowing the Curve by Lauren Fraser
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book! I love sports romances so this called my name from the cover alone.
I felt a connection to Peyton as she was down to earth, told it like it was and still showed her emotions and stuck up for herself when needed.
Ryan isn’t like other pro baseball stars, he keeps himself in check and doesn’t care for the limelight he’s all about the team.

These two had sparks flying from hello and when their flame ignited it was hard to cool that down. They went through real relatable situations and that made me love them even more as it made them seem more real, so kudos to the author for your gift of word building to elicit those emotions.
Can’t wait for more!

Married Blind (King of Screen Book 2) by Morgana Bevan – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Married Blind (Kings of Screen, #2)Married Blind by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I knew going in based off the title it would be a strangers get married trope but I so enjoyed this!
The author showed who each character was but still kept some details to find throughout the story.
Finn and Abi were great to read about as both are vulnerable in their own ways but still looking for love, whether one of them thinks it or not.
I was hooked from page 1 and I loved how this story unfolded and the emotions this elicited from me for both of them.
I can’t wait for more!

Love Tools (Bluestone Series, #1)Love Tools by Isobel Reed
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I so enjoyed the push and pull in this story between Lilly and Jake. Both have reasons to be how they are but sometimes it’s worth taking a chance again. The chemistry between these two was felt so strong and rightfully so. I love a book that can make me laugh as well as feel all the range of emotions. Must read!

I absolutely adored this book. It’s Christmas time and this put me right in the mood. I felt like I was watching a movie play out as I read and wasn’t disappointed at all.

Musical Murder Mystery Boxed Set #1 Books 1-3 by K.L. Montgomery – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Musical Murder Mystery Boxed Set #1Musical Murder Mystery Boxed Set #1 by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This set combines 2 of my favorite things, musicals and murder mysteries.
I can’t pick a favorite of the 3 included in this set as each has its own draw to it to make them each unique and fun to read.
This author just has a way with her words to draw you in and immerse you into the story like you are there with all the characters, seeing and hearing everything they are. I found myself singing along with all the clues Ruby finds which was fun and different.

Must read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First off the pictures in this are amazing. I could look at them all day.
Moby gets a flute from her dad who is deployed for a year. When she says it’s broken he encourages her to keep trying. This book has so many lessons and age appropriate wording to get across what that message is without being too over my kids heads.
My daughter has read this 3x now and just loves it

Ashes of Sin and Stardust is your traditional Romance, BDSM book! The characters were great and it was a pleasure to read. The story is a lesson in not all good things are what you think or are expecting.
Rueben has waited for his perfect submissive and when he finds her, she’s nothing like he imagined.
Alice shes sassy and has trust issues. Can they make it work?!?

Where as this author been?! Why has no one ever told me to read her books?
To say I was completely enthralled in this story would be an understatement. I couldn’t put this down if I tried. Had all I wanted and more.
You really feel like you know these people and are there watching this happen page by page. I will be going back and reading the rest of this series because I need to know it all.
Thank you and this author is now forever on my to read list.

Saved by Love (Bellevue Bullies #7)Saved by Love by Toni Aleo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have not read anything by this author before and went in blind (that cover called to me).
New adult books arent my usual go to reads but will read them as they can have great stories, just not my favorite age range.
I instantly fell in love with both of these main characters and the realness and rawness of what they went through, how they are coping and how they deal day in and day out.
Throw in the autism awareness components and I was hooked (as a mom of a child with autism this was so beautifully done)

I will be reading more from this author as they have a gift of telling a story you feel to your core.

This Time AroundThis Time Around by Jane Suen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Second chance romances are one of my favorites. This one was a quick read and I didnt feel like I got to really “know” the characters just kind of surface need to know details.
While the story was good and had lots for me to love I just felt I wanted more of just about everything.
I did love the small town and how everyone knows everyone and helps each other, I also felt all was rushed quickly.
Makes for a good afternoon read.

Billionaire romance is a small guilty pleasure in reading of mine so this was up my alley.
I liked these two main characters as they brought the chemistry and a good story with them.
I was kept along from beginning to end and now I will be watching for the next book in this series .

LeviLevi by Edith Mackenzie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sometimes you need a quick clean romance book to fill your afternoon and thats exactly what this book was.
We meet a family who has suffered a huge loss and things really took off from there. This was a very fast feeling timeline and while we get to know a lot of info on each main character Im greedy and wanted so much more back story on both of them.

I cant wait to read about the rest of the brothers we met here.

The Lie That BindsThe Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I grabbed this book because of the cover so I dove in blind. I wasnt sure what to expect with this book but it sure wasnt the heart clenching read this was.

High school age reads are not my go to reads as they are usually young but acting older than would seem normal, dealing with situations that are far fetched etc but that is NOT case with this book.
My heart broke in a million pieces with each blow we see in this book but our main characters are fighters and I was rooting for a good outcome.

Glad I took a chance on this book, I love this author so knew it would be good.

Finding Starlight (Quimby Grove #1)Finding Starlight by Shannon Nikole
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This checked a lot of boxes for me on what some of my favorite types of reads are.
Small town, drama, suspense, romance of course and many other things.
I want to move to this town! I have always wanted to live in a small town where everyone knows everyone and just a sense of community.

Oh these characters, first their names, im a sucker for uncommon names and these took the prize for that. Their chemistry and just overall being made me relate to them so quickly and deeply.
I wont spoil anything thats not already said in the synopsis but this is a great read!
