Shattered: a Logan McKenna Mystery Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series) by Valerie Davisson – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Shattered: Logan Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series)Shattered: Logan Book 1 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by this author and while this had some things I didn’t care for, in looking forward to the rest of the series.
Im a details person, I like to know a bit about where aa character is in a book but I felt, personally, there was a bit too much detail in this book. And I’m not a huge fan of back and forth in time, but again personal preference.
Otherwise I enjoyed this story, and it does pick up after a bit. I will say the details I enjoyed was we knew our characters, and pretty well too. Logan felt like a real, normal person and I love that when I can feel that with a character.
So in all, a good book, with a mystery woven into it.

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Book 1) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge, #1)One Hot Texas Summer by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You ever want something you know you shouldn’t? Well that’s Kelly in this story. Shes attracted to Tate, the younger than her, handsome town player. Well that’s what the rumor is around town anyways. When they’re forced to work together for Founders Day, they realize they’re wrong in assuming and realize they cant deny the sparks that fly between them.
I really enjoyed this story. A woman who is independent but still wants a man to do the small acts of chivalry. A man with so much on his shoulders and doesn’t know how to say no or act when offered help and support.

These two were great and I can’t wait to read more in this series as these brothers are all so different.

The Widow: A Dark Romantic Fantasy by Naomi Valkyrie & Rebecca E. McEwen – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

The Widow: A Dark Romantic FantasyThe Widow: A Dark Romantic Fantasy by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this story! I loved how you knew something was different with our main female character but we don’t get an answer until later, so you’re left guessing what exactly it could be she’s hiding.
She was a likeable character and I was kept wondering what her end goal was and it wasn’t what i was expecting at all, in a good way!
I don’t want to give anything away, really I don’t but if you have an hour or so pick this book up and you won’t be sorry.

Center of Gravity (An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance Book 2) by Isabella Cassazza – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Center of Gravity (Ice Tigers #2)Center of Gravity by Isabella Cassazza
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first read by this author, while it’s the second in this series I was able to read it with no problems without having read the first.
What a great story. I love hockey books so this was right up my alley. And the characters had me hooked to every page. I was fully invested in this book and everything around me ceased to exist, sorry kids, until I finished.
I will be going back and reading book one to get this series from the beginning.

The Princess and the Pit Bulls (The Fairy Tale Series Book 4) by Jody Lynn Daniels – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

The Princess and The Pit Bulls (Fairy Tale Series book 4)The Princess and The Pit Bulls by Jody Lynn Daniels
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great story! I love books with dogs as a part of the story and who wouldn’t love Bonnie and Clyde? Chloe and Sebastian had a really fast connection and whirlwind romance but it wouldn’t be what it was without a jealous ex or 2. My only complaint, why don’t these characters ever talk and hear each other out? Like, just call them and say “hey I saw or got or heard this and want to hear from you before I assume the worst?” But that’s just me. Chloe is a strong woman and we see her strength here but also her weakness and that’s a big heart.
Sebastian is starting over and who doesn’t love a man who loves animals as much as he does? His past is coming back to haunt him and torment Chloe.
I loved Hildy! She made me giggle and scared at the same time. And his mother, hilarious.
Great read!

Help Me Harry (Collection: Sun, Sand & A Ring On My Hand Book 2)Help Me Harry by Mya O’Malley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book! I felt like I flew through this book and didn’t want it to end so that’s a sign of a good story.
I really felt like I was in this story as a friend watching all of this happen and unfold and I will be reading the rest of this series. The characters are relatable, and actually felt human and not a story character who makes a living selling pencils living in a mansion lol. This series are all standalones but still will be reading them all.

As one of my favorite authors I was excited for this book, then realizing it crossed over into Crystal Rock, well I was so happy!

I was totally hooked to this story. Lots of things to discover, secrets to reveal and also the heat between these two! I cant wait to read more in this series, they all sound great!

The Frontman by Lawrence Parlier – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

The FrontmanThe Frontman by Lawrence Parlier
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Frontman is the first book I’ve read by this author and I am not disappointed at all. We dive right in in this story, with the death of Kerry, a rock and roll legend. We get to see the lifestyle of a rockstar, the ups and downs, the hidden and the unknown.
I was kept right on the edge trying to figure out what was next, and I love when im so wrapped up in a story I forget I’m reading, and this book did just that.
I will be reading more books by this author!

Being Lost (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1) by Manda Mellett – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Being Lost (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #1)Being Lost by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Well i say this every time and I’ll keep saying it im sure, but this author has one heck of a gift with writing.
This is the first book of the San Diego chapter of the Satan’s Devils, and while we have met some of these members in other books, we get to see them on their home turf.

Laying low seems to be the premise of this book for both Lost and Patsy. I am so so happy to be able to see what happens after Inks story (from a previous book) with Patsy and her son.
Again I was rolling through my emotions and even though its an older couple, and done so well I might add, we still get the key things we look for in a motorcycle club romance and especially with this group of bikers.
I can’t wait to see where this chapter of the club goes.

The Divided TwinThe Divided Twin by M. Billiter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I will preface this by saying if you havent read book 1, stop and get it and read it first.
I knew going into this book I was in for quite an emotional roller coaster as well as getting an engaging read. This had it all and then some. I really didn’t know what would happen next and that made me want to keep reading. My emotions were everywhere reading this, just so much emotions on the page and that takes talent. I recommend reading this as its really in a league of its own.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Absolutely loved this book. The author has a way of just reeling you in and immersing you in the story in a way you feel you’re in the story.
I really loved the story between John and Lesley. Both having been hurt before they deny the growing attraction. A story about growth, learning to open their hearts again and love.
I highly recommend this read!

Be One with Me (Finding Love in Green Springs, #2)Be One with Me by C.A. Miconi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First off I recommend reading book 1 before this one as they overlap a bit and you get the feel for the town.
Such a great story, and I loved how the multiple pov was done and didn’t take away from the stories flow, so well done there!
A unique story of 2 people coming together and take you on the ride with them.
I cannot wait for book 3 now.

The Matchmaker and The Marine: A Second Chance Small-Town RomanceThe Matchmaker and The Marine: A Second Chance Small-Town Romance by Lucinda Race
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great book! I loved this story so much. We all have something no matter how big or small it may seem to others, that cause us to keep it to only those we know won’t judge you or pressure you etc.
Melinda is a business owner of “It’s Just Coffee” matchmaking service and she’s got a pretty great track record with it. We learn a lot about her in this book and my heart broke for her.
Adam, what a guy! I won’t give much away about him but he was so sweet, yet tough and new in town. He and Melinda become close as she helps him get matched up with potential dates, and he helps her by building in her backyard garden area.
Secrets have a way of showing themselves even if you’re not ready to air them out.
This was done so well. Highly recommend.

I will say this is not my preferred genre, so when I was captured by the story i mean it! This is a great read and as I’m not one for rehashing the entire story in a review, go pick this book up, you won’t regret it!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While this is book five, it’s not necessary to read the previous books but I highly recommend doing so!
This is now, i think, my new favorite of this series and that’s saying ALOT!
What happens when a maid of honor and best man scheme together at separate bachelor/bachelorette parties, well this will give you a run for your money!
Ty and Makenna were great to read about and as always, this author leaves you turning pages to see where her creative mind takes you next. Can’t wait for more in this series, the possibilities are endless.

Another great read for this series. Two mysteries send these 2 in separate directions but it doesn’t end there. I hate even thinking of giving something away in a mystery so I’ll let you be the judge when you read this. I cannot wait for the next book after how this one ended!

I love when an author can get a back and forth in time correct. It has to flow well and this did just that. You get everything in this story and I loved every minute. Great series. Great book, and amazing author!

Stepbrother (Step Dilemma Series Book 1) by Stacy McWilliams – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

Stepbrother: Step Dilemma Series Book 1Stepbrother: Step Dilemma Series Book 1 by Stacy McWilliams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have a guilty pleasure in step romances and I don’t know where it started! This book was to be right up my alley and it was for the most part.
Bailey and Cooper are who this is about and the story itself was good but the actions taking place didn’t sit well with me. I like my heroines to be strong and have some sort of a backbone and she just took whatever attention she got, good or bad. I know it’s played off of how her father wrote her off as a kid but I just wanted to shake them both and say you’re being idiots.
This ends on a cliffhanger so I’ll be waiting for the next book. Just all seem immature and I hope with their age now at the end it changes in the next book.

I loved loved Jax and Lennox! Having a disability that you can see before you ever interact with someone can be very hard, I can imagine. Jax wants to be seen for him by a woman.
These 2 were a great story to read and all the side characters too! I couldn’t put this book down, this author just knows how to weave a must read story. Ive been a small fan of motocross since I was little and love reading books about it. Must read!

What a kick off to a new series this book is! Orla is a top journalist that’s trying to keep a new drug off the street and also to dig into who/what this new vigilante is and if they’re good or bad.
I was hooked from page one and I enjoyed every amazing minute of this story. I cant wait to see where this series goes from here. This author has a way with words to devour every single thing they write!

This is the first book of this series, and also a new to me author. What a great message this book has, dont let a past failed relationship deter you from moving on and getting what you deserve from a partner.
This is a fast read, but doesn’t lack in steamy scenes, great characters and a great message. I really look forward to the rest of this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Second chance romances are my favorite and this was no exception. Audrey and Silas had a crazy summer and then Silas left abruptly and Audrey was heart broken. 18 years later and Silas is back in town for a funeral and decides to try and find her again.
While I understand it’s a book and an escape from reality, this just happened WAY too fast especially with kids involved. That honestly is my only negative take away from this. Answers are finally given for all of the past they couldn’t say back then and it ends beautifully.

I could not put this book down once I started and the story we get here, after the first one was a ride itself, is another “buckle in and hold on” read.
Bryer and Nathan are put to the test with Cash coming into the picture. Bryer must fight the pull in either direction and I couldn’t have asked for more than if I was watching a movie. Love this series!

Satan's Devils MC Boxset Books 1-5Satan’s Devils MC Boxset Books 1-5 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Who needs sleep? These books will make you forget everything you need to do so warn your family that you’re unavailable. Every single book in this box set is amazing. You can see and read the growth of the author as she gets more in depth with each character as we go.
Each book follows a different couple but you do get to see the others in each book. I loved getting to read about the ins and outs of the club and the members.
Love all the bikers and how they vow to never get an old lady and then fall head over feet for the most perfect woman for them.

I laughed, I cried, and I swooned with each and every book. Great series, and I will own each of these in paperback one day.
