A Tennis Pro To Die For is the third book in the Cozy Mysteries To Die For series by Judy Moore. This book can be read as a stand-alone story, but I recommend starting from book one because we already know the backstory of these characters.
As you can tell by the title, this story sees the plot take a turn away from the usual path, and down that of a sporty route. I loved this element, it was fun to see the author take this series down a different path. I didn’t realise until after I read the book that the author herself is a former tennis pro, but this is definitely reflected in the writing, her knowledge of the sport and the politics surrounding it shines through brilliantly. As with the previous books in this series, the stories are action-packed and fast-paced, but the brilliant characters help to keep the reader on track. If you haven’t started this series yet, I would definitely recommend it if you love cosy mysteries and whodunnit-style books. It keeps you guessing and on your toes right up until the last page.

This is a series I have loved from the first book. This is the ninth in the series which I highly suggest reading all of the previous books to help your enhancement of this series. This is a well written story that is full of action and suspense. I loved being pulled into the story from the beginning. I had no problems relating to the characters as they bring the story to life. Detective Petrosky, who is my favorite character, is back in another mystery of a missing person. He is a determined man out to find the truth and his man. He really makes the story for me. It is fun and entertaining. I highly recommend reading this book to find out if the truth tears down a family or builds one up.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. Her writing skills and attention to details make her stories easy to read and understandable. This book is no different. It pulled me in right from the beginning and kept my attention to the end. The characters took me on an adventure that was engaging and full of action. They are paranormal and really just made the story fun. I had no problems connecting to them. This is the third book in this series which I highly suggest reading the previous two books to help your enjoyment of this series. This is a story of loyalty, sacrifices, and finding out who you really are. Mielitta has a destiny but will she fulfill it? I highly recommend this book and the previous books in this series.

At first I was very confused with the way the story was laid out, but quickly came to realize that one side was reality and the other side was all in Vince’s mind. I liked the idea of Zami, or Vince, being romantically involved with Ayesha. But he has lost favor with her brothers when the suspect him of being a spy. It was hard for me going back and forth between the two different stories but the writing style had me paying attention and getting really involved. I really enjoyed reading about the author’s perspective of the Islamic faith. This book was very intriguing and interesting to read. I still don’t know where we stand on the ending but I am satisfied.

Dre is a strong character but has some issues. I didn’t like this character at all at first it was just her attitude I didn’t like then we see what Dre truly like . Shanya is depend on Dre and you can see why. Erick

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. This is a shorter story about second chances and it packs a punch with romance. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning. This is a story that has characters that are relatable, engaging and kept me turning pages. This is a story about Braxton. He is a chef that is well known. When an incident puts him in prime time, it also puts him in the path of her. Hearts are made for breaking and putting back together. Will these two get a second chance? Will Braxton learn that sometimes the things we want the most are worth the bumps in the road. This is a great story that I really enjoyed. The characters bring so much to the story and I highly recommend this book.
When I first read the synopsis for this book it sounded like a story I would enjoy and I was right! I really enjoyed the book and I am definitely looking forward to more from the series. I guess the story was a little predictable but that didn’t bother me, I liked the characters and the story flowed really well. The romance I love in a story was there and a little bit of humour mixed in. I fell in love with Zachary straight away – Regan took me a little time to warm to but I really liked them as a couple. Overall a good read and I look forward to more to come.

Another great book in this series and one that I really enjoyed. I think that the author has a great imagination and that really comes across in her stories, they are so creative and really well written. This book picks up with Dahlia and after everything that happened in the previous story I was looking forward to reading more. I would definitely recommend reading the books in order. Dahlia has definitely been on a journey over these books and it’s been exciting following her story along with the other characters. This is a highly recommended series and book – I am definitely looking forward to more.

L. Schneider – Review by Katie Matthews
If you’re looking for a book to bring on those tears then look no further! Learning to Live is an emotional read that I loved from beginning to end. The way in which the author had written it I could tell she had really put her heart and soul into these characters lives, journey and story. Ciera was probably one of the strongest female characters I have read about in a long time, after everything she went through in the story I really admired her strength. I really enjoyed reading about her story and Topher as well. This is definitely an emotional read and one that had me thinking about it long after I had finished. I highly recommend it to others and I look forward to reading more from Ms Adams again in the future.

OMG, this was brilliant I can’t not explain how engrossed I got within the story, well I read it in one sitting and it took me a few hours. The utter brilliance of the story was well written and did not seem to pad out the action. The two characters was so perfect for each other as she was sweet with a hint of danger and Seth well HOT is all it can say. The secondary characters were riveting and I had to check out the story of Dale as there is a brilliant excerpt at the back of this book and was gutted its not out you. Oh how you tease. This definitely a worthy read and I very rarely give out five stars but this book had me at the first word till the very last teasing sentence. As this is new authors, I have been busily trying to get my hands on more so. Thank you for bringing me into a new world.

Hungry Business: A Short Story by Maria DeBlassie 4 Stars
I don’t usually like books about the zombie apocalypse but seeing as this was a short story, I took the plunge. I’m just fifteen pages, the author managed to write a story that was detailed and original. It is creepy and macabre. The story shows the desperation of today’s dating scene using zombies as a metaphor. It was clever and well written. The main character wants to overcome her loneliness by trying to find “ the one”. Yet after several failed attempts and one close call with the undead, she deems it just not worth it. Ending the story with a chance to expand was a good choice by the author. This is a quick read that can be read over a cup of coffee.

Can Dreams Come True? is the first book in The Cecily Taylor series by Krysten Lindsay Hager. It is a cute, sweet, YA, coming of age story- about friendship, crushes, first love, teenage angst, jealousy, and following your dreams. This is my first read from Ms. Hager, so I was interested to see what this was all about. It is definitely a YA story- as it is quite sweet and a little ‘fluffy’. As I have grown older, I have found that I like my stories a little ‘meatier’- but still enjoy exploring YA stories as they are usually fairly light and easy to read and make great ‘palate cleansers’. This is definitely the case here- a lovely story with just enough angst and drama to keep things interesting and well suited for the younger reader. I am interested to see what happens in the next instalment- following Cecily and Andrew on to the next stage of their relationship with “In Over Her Head: Lights, Camera, Anxiety”(Book #2).

Book one in the series and I’m ready to start the second since I know it will be as good as the first. I loved this book! I laughed more times than I expected and I then needed to take a break from reading to refocus.
Ace was amazingly charming and seemed a bit bashful while trying to charm Ella. His friends were entertaining and I’m looking forward to reading the stories about how each one of these boys falls.
I love how confident Ella’s was for being a curvy woman I know there are a lot of curvy women out there with an amazing amount of confidence, but I’m not one of them. I could only dream of having Ella’s confidence.
I have been fortunate enough to read several books by Ms. Alexander and she hasn’t disappointed me yet.

From the description I knew I would love it. Seeing Sonya Jesus involved I knew it would be captivating. Not. Disappointed. At. All. This dark suspense filled romance was everything I didn’t know I was looking for. It moved quickly and had plenty of punch. I was so captivated I got to the end without realizing it was there. Shaw and Seth – wow. Loved this book and look forward to reading more from this dynamic writing duo.

The Liminal Space by T. S. Simons is the second book in the Antiodes series. I highly recommend you read the first book, you will be glad you took the time. I enjoyed learning how Cam thought about life and how important family is. This post apocalyptic book really makes you consider if your life would be different if you were able to start over. Would your life really change or would you make similar mistakes you made in your current life? I’m not sure I could answer that but it sure makes you wonder. I really enjoyed this book, I’d say even more than the first.

A Hole by Phoebe Alexander is the first in the Alpha Bet Series. It’s a novella length rom com type. Ace & Ella’s story is different when it comes to romance. Ace is a comedian, Ella a bank teller. I gave this novella three stars because it was hard for me to get into it. Phoebe Alexander is a wonderful and talented writer, but for some reason this novella didn’t grab my attention the way her other novels have. A Hole is hilarious and funny but can be series when needs to be.

I really enjoyed this entertaining romantic comedy featuring a city boy and a country girl who fall in love in ten days during a camping trip. Best selling novelist Alexander Jones is struggling with writing his second book and so his best friend Luke convinces him to take a trekking and survival boot camp in the wilderness to cure him of his writers block. The only problem is he hates the countryside and camping. Both Luke and his childhood friend Penny Foster take Alex to the mountains where they camped as children. Alex is completely out of his element almost straightaway but with his friends help he manages ten days. However, a surprising outcome of the trip is that within that ten days Alex has fallen in love with Penny, but is unsure how she feels or what Luke will think when he finds out.
This lighthearted and fun romance had me laughing out loud. The characters are all very realistic and relatable and the chemistry between Alex and Penny really comes across in the narrative. I liked how the book is written solely from Alex’s point of view which gives us a different perspective from the usual female viewpoint in most romance novels. I particularly liked Alex’s witty and sarcastic inner voice and found Alex to be an unusual but very likeable male lead, and was really cheering him on hoping he would get his girl, Penny. The author made the setting along with the camping and survivalist elements really come alive through her descriptive narrative which made me feel immersed in the story, and as though I was camping with them. An engaging and heartwarming read which I read in one sitting as once I started reading I could not put the book down. A great read for some much needed escapism during the continuing lockdown here in the UK.

I loved this book. I have read books by both these two authors, this one is my favorite from both. Their writing skills and attention to details not only made the story feel realistic but also made the story engaging and just a great story. This is a well developed story about Braelynn who is an attorney but also a woman who now finds herself on the other side of the law. What will happen when she has to turn to a former client, a bad boy and she is in love with to boot. As she learns there are consequences to everything you do, she finds herself involved with the Mafia and they are not happy about it. What happens next is for you to read. What will fate have in store for her and this bad boy? Will she find her way out of trouble? I really enjoyed these characters. They are unique and give life to the story. They are strong and Cassie is my favorite and what she brings to the story is awesome. I highly recommend this book and these authors.

Sons of Sindicato (Sons of Sindicato ) by Cam Johns & Sonya Jesus. This is a novella about a Crime family and their attorney. It is so very good and even though it is short it makes you feel like you have read a 400 page novel. The characters are amazing. Its the story of Braelynn Shaw who is the attorney for the Sindicato Crime Family. She just recently represented Seth Girodano and they fell in love with one another which is a big no no not only because of her profession but also because of her race. The Crime family does not approve of interracial relationships. Now that Braelynn has murdered someone in self defense it muddies the waters even more. The only way she sees out is to get help from Seth and the Sindicato but if she does that their relationship will come out. If that happens she risks everything in her life falling apart. Once she opens the door for the mafia family to help her she will be involved with them on a level she never wanted. Will Braelynn survive this trial and still be able to have the career she loves afterwards? Will she be able to share her life with the man she loves? Read Sons Of Sindcato to find out!

This is a cute romance story that has a touch of humor to it. This is a well written story about a city boy and a country girl. This story will show you how much things could change if just given 10 days. Alex has given himself 10 days to embrace the country. His friends including a girl named Penny are determined to help him with this. Will Alex and Penny find themselves embracing more than something out of their element? They made the story fun to read and entertaining. I laughed a couple of times out loud at them. They made the story for me. I highly recommend reading this book.

Braelynn has a secret and is a great female lead. I love how brave she is whilst still having fenemine side. The combation of both these works very well. This is a amazing short story which grips you right from the start.

I’ve read and enjoyed a couple of Paul DeBlassie III’s books before so approached Goddess of Everything with excitement which the book definitely lived up to! In Aztlan, DeBlassie has created a spiritual playground where he can draw on different traditions and beliefs to create a thought-provoking fantasy world. Goddess of Everything is a dark book, filled with death from the opening scene at a cemetery. There are themes of corrupt power and loyalties as well. It’s intense at times, but in a gripping way that will have you frantically turning the pages. I particularly liked Consuela, a grounding presence in Gabriél’s life. It is hard being the wife in a book about a mother-son relationship and Consuela brings characterfulness and independence to the role! For me, this is a four-star book, and I’m definitely keen to read more of DeBlassie’s books. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something different from anything you’ve read before!

This is quite the story. I love reading more about Dahlia and her escapades. There is a lot that happens and it really kept me on my toes. Even re-reading passages to make sure I am understanding the flow of the story. Do you like action? Well this one has it in spades! Deceit, trickery and strong friendships all Fall into line within the story.
We meet new characters and say hello to some old ones. Each on add some spice and fire to the story. Dahlia has been fighting for her life, her friends and even sometimes her enemies. She is strong if mind and body as she struggles to understand what is happening to her and her town. Evans is still a great side kick and they have a few comedic moments. Creed is up in the air and not really sure which side he is landing on.
Overall this is a nice add to her series. The characters all come to life in their roles. The story has many ups and downs so be prepared. It looks like this might not be the end for her but we will see.

10 Days by KJ Holliday is a great book with strong, relatable characters. They completely made this book for me and are what had me turning the pages. Everything about them was so easy to imagine. I could vividly picture most of their conversations happening and it really made me feel like I was right there with them. The story itself I found to be quite fun. I expected it to feel a bit rushed given that it was mainly going to happen over 10 days but this was not the case at all. The author really took the time to build the story to make it a great read. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I am looking forward to reading more from them in the future.
