I believe this is my first book by this author and I was totally entertained with this story. It is not in my go to genre list but the cover and the synopsis drew me in and I had to read it.
Its a quick read but we really get a great story out of it and now I am wanting more! Great characters and I could just see every detail in my mind. Will be looking at more from this author as now I need to know what I’m missing with not reading anything until now!

Well i was hooked with this book from the get go! Malerie and Ace were so great to read about and this author has such a way with her writing that you are just wrapped up in each and every word. I could picture myself there and everything they were seeing and feeling, I could too.
Recommend this author!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really love this authors characters, they’re so real and its very easy to see yourself going through everything they are.
Sidney worked so hard for a promotion that is now not happening so whats a girl to do but get some drinks in her and complain to strangers on the train about. This is where she and Quinlan meet but it’s not the end of them, oh no, far from it.
I loved we had a strong female lead and wasn’t afraid to stick to her morales and demand the respect for the things she asked for. Highly recommend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a read. I really lost all track of time when I opened this book, I just got lost in it. I love when an author can just catch you from the very start and keep that hold even after you’re done with the final word.
Harleigh, I just love this name, was easy to connect to and feel like you were going through it all with her. She has just left an abusive relationship, and with the help of her family, goes on a vacation where we meet Giovani.
I loved reading about both of these characters and the connections I felt to both and with both were amazing.
I cannot wait to read more from this talented author! All her work has now been added to must read pile!

VANISHING DAY (A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 4) by Valerie Davisson – Review by Lyndsey Fairley

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

With such a sensitive topic of domestic abuse, this was written well and kept me reading. Logan gets a new neighbor, Lori and her daughter. When what Lori was hiding from finds her and she ends up in the hospital, the only one who knows the answers is her 3 year old, Logan ends up in the eyes of our bad guy.

I liked this story and the way it was written especially dealing with a hot topic, but the author did well with it and brought it awareness.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series is nothing like ive read before. Who wouldn’t want to visit an adult themed theme park? Each book is following someone new, but we do see the same characters throughout and these need to be read in order as they follow a series of events and you’ll want it to make sense.
Another homerun for this author, who is an automatic one-click for me.

We met Jessica and Ant a little in book one as secondary characters so I was so happy to see them in their own book.
I love the way this author makes all her books believable and relatable with everyday life. That is what keeps me hanging on every word and makes me feel like I belong in the book. These 2 were great and I absolutely loved reading about them!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ill be the first to admit that I’m a bit if an oddball. I am not a sports fan, we dont watch any at home or even have a “team” we like except our hometowns big names. But give me a sports romance book and I am glued to the pages!
I loved reading about Hunter and Kennedy. They each have goals and will let nothing stand in their way. I enjoyed reading this and will go back and read this series, as this is a standalone and first I’ve read in this particular series.
Great read for an afternoon!

The Patience of KarmaThe Patience of Karma by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This has to be my favorite book of this series so far. While I have read all the previous books, you could read this as a standalone.
What I really love about this author is as you’re reading you pick up possible clues and then as you keep reading you remember what you read way before and then it takes a turn and it left me guessing.
Two cases to keep them busy and leave you reading until the last word.

IRRESISTIBLE - FALL INTO ROMANCE (Irresistible Romance Book 5)IRRESISTIBLE – FALL INTO ROMANCE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read 1 of these amazing stories, but I will be going back to read the rest over the next couple of weeks to add more to my thoughts here.
I read Tamara Ferguson’s book and like all her other stories I was hooked to see what would transpire in this one.
Amanda and Jeff dated years ago and after something happened, things shifted and they split. Now they’re back in the same town and feelings are high. Can they make a go of it this time, or will Amanda’s past be the barrier keeping them moving forward? Or even Jeff’s job?
I really enjoyed these two and they had such a great story, very believable and relatable and I love that.

This was such a great read. I really liked getting to read about Kara and Bear.
They meet by chance and then end up working together. While Kara just wants some fun for the summer, Bear is a focused on the future and how to get there and when. This is a fun summer read you can just get lost in. I enjoyed all the secondary characters as well, they added to this story which makes it even better.
Will be reading more from this author.

Rock Star on the Verge (Rogue Series #9)Rock Star on the Verge by Lara Ward Cosio
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great story and addition to this series. I am not a big multiple pov book but this author is able to seamlessly do this and with this story its so well done and needed that I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I felt like I was catching up with old and new friends and I love that feeling. When you can just immerse yourself back into a world that feels all your own and that you just belong.
The biggest thing I took away from this story is that its not where you’re going, its the journey and path you take to get their.
Must read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Penny and George

This was such a great book and set only 30 minutes from where I live! Was cool to read about places ive been around town and know what they’re ‘seeing’.
First off Penny and her sisters. My goodness those girls had to have had a rough life growing up with the names they had but as a parent I see what they did with the name play.
Penny was so easy to see my self in and like. And George or Geo, well he’s just a man putting on a face so no one can see he’s just a big teddy bear .
Had some laughs in this and was truly entertained. Hope we get some books about the sisters as those will be fun!

Rookie MovesRookie Moves by Tarrah Anders
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great but quick read as its a novella.
We get to know Grant and Emily quickly and just enough to like them pretty quickly. I loved that they didn’t know who each other were and their status meant nothing to either of them. And even despite some secrets they found out they ignored them and carried on.
Great read highly recommend this series and novella.

Another great story from this series. I always love the facts we learn about different things in each book. This one was no different, as we learn about sea otters!
Where there is Logan, there is trouble and this one didn’t disappoint. Probably my favorite of the series so far! I wont be givibg many details away as I don’t want to spoil the story.
Can be read as a standalone but I recommend reading in order as to get the whole experience that is Logan McKenna.

It’s hard to put into words how this author is able to write a story that just captures you from the first sentence and just envelop you through the whole thing.
This is book 4 in a series of could be standalones but you’ll want to read them all anyways!
Mac and Nicky were so great to read about. I felt like I really knew them and could just feel the emotions pouring off the pages.
Highly recommend!

It Comes From Within (House Valdis #2)It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A couple quick things before proceeding, if you have not read book 1, do so before reading this one as it is very helpful and you will be able to follow seamlessly into this story. Also, while this is not my chosen favorite genre, this author sure has a way to rope me right in and enjoy every word.

Xenobia is trying her best to everything needed with joining the 2 houses together and when a threat comes to be, will she be able to step up?
I really love these characters and can just picture everything that is happening.
A great read and I cannot wait for more from this author!

Road Tripped (Satan's Devils MC Utah #1)Road Tripped by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ok, these stories always suck me in and I abandon my family until I am finished. This one of course was the same way, but I have to say, Road’s story had me hooked but also screaming at him because we ALL know how Drummer is and knew it wouldnt end well.

I loved getting to see the secretive Utah crew and all the different dynamics here, which I promise you’ll want to hang on tight because this was not a ride I expected to be on!
I really am not one to hold much back but this is 100% a story you need to just dive in and read it because it has so many things happening you have to find them on your own.
As a new series for a new chapter of the MC, this can be read as a standalone or your first ever book by this amazing author. But I promise you, you will be binging everything she’s ever written after starting one.
Can’t wait to see where we are taken next here in Utah!

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4)True Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve been patiently waiting for this story and it didn’t let me down one bit! If you haven’t read them already, start with book 1, as it helps understand what is going on and why, even though this could be read as a standalone.

Liam and Catriona were great to read about. They had me hooked and waiting to see what was coming next with everything. This author weaves such a good story, it’s hard to put her books down once you start, so tell the family to make their own dinner as you won’t have the time to do so!
And now I wait for book 5!!

Dont let the page count fool you. This story packs so much into it that I felt I read a great story in a short amount of time. Not many can pull that off but this author sure did.
Whether you have read anything else by this author or not, this is perfect to get into this world and learn more about Xenobia. This takes place before Rise of the House of Valdis so no matter which order you read them, this is a must read. I cant wait to read more !

Forest Park: Logan Book 2 (The Logan McKenna Series)Forest Park: Logan Book 2 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In this second book following Logan, she is in the area when an explosion happens and of course wants to help.
I was hooked to the pages waiting for what was coming next and this didn’t disappoint. I’m not a huge fan of multi pov’s especially when they aren’t told who it is so that took some getting over for me but it didn’t take away from the story that much. I love the details, I feel everything come alive in my head. Not giving things away as I feel stories are best told where they belong, in the story.
I can’t wait to read the third book.

Ok, im in love with this series even more now.
If you haven’t read book 1, go do that first unless you don’t care to read out of order.
In this story, we get to see Tyler, who we met in book 1 with his soon to launch wine business. He’s to be getting an advertising deal but instead Gia shows up.
I really really liked these two. They just clicked and I could feel their emotions come off the page.
I cannot wait to read more, these are great, easy reads but pack alot of heart and emotions.

This was my first read by This author and I enjoyed it.
There’s a phrase I hear often of “right person, wrong time” and I felt that with these two. Life wasn’t ready for these two yet, they had more to learn apart first.
Amanda and Kent were relatable and that kept the story grounded and believable for me. You really feel everything that’s happening and I love that in a story .

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

STOP! If you have not read books 1-3, do that first before opening this one, its needed to know all that’s going on here in this book.

We get to see some more growth for our characters in this book. Investigating not one but two cases involving dead husbands, we dive right in and are taken for quite the spin. And if that’s not enough, let’s throw in an ex with his own cry for help.
The story moved well, and we get to see all the details and are able to paint the picture in our minds of what is going on.
Good read, great series!

Fair warning, this book is dark, has triggers but oh my goodness is it so good! It can be read as a standalone but if you want a bit on some characters, read Nikolai’s books.
Trey & K, whew where do you even start with them? K is the leading woman you wish for in books like these, she is so strong, resilient and just a tough leading lady.
I’m not giving much away here as its best to read it, but if you are offended by curse words, mafia business etc, this isn’t for you but if it is, then grab this book, heck grab all the books by this author you won’t be disappointed.

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.
