Shadow (Devil’s Handmaidens MC: Timber-Ghost, Montana Chapter Book 2) by D.M. Earl – Review by Tonya Merritt

Shadow (Devil's Handmaidens MC-Book Two)Shadow by D.M. Earl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book to Devil’s Handmaidens MC books. It’s the tale of Shadow, best friend to Tink. Shadow is trying to live her life with her demons. Shadow aka Zoey is fighting for some normalcy when she meets Panther. The two work together to save lives but will they fall in love as well? I liked this book a bit better than the first book Tink. I think I just like Zoey’s character better. Great books to read.

Falling for You (Buckeye Falls Book 2) by Libby Kay – Review by Diane Sennett

Falling for You (Buckeye Falls, #2)Falling for You by Libby Kay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Libby Kay has taken us back to Buckeye Falls, to the lives of CeCe and Evan. Both work at Max’s diner, and while they both had a great time together at a winter festival, they both hide their true feelings from each other.
CeCe doesn’t see herself romantically linked to Evan, he’s younger and she’s nearing the dreaded 3-0. Evan tries to tell her that he is not that much younger and age doesn’t matter. As he navigates his way, patiently; they begin to spend time together outside of work.
Of course, what Evan doesn’t know is that CeCe has another secret and she is not entirely sure she should open up to Evan.
These characters are wonderfully written, this story is filled with friendship, admiration, love, and a fighting spirit. CeCe and Evan’s story kept my interest from beginning to end.

The Silent RoadThe Silent Road by S.N. McKibben
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story has it all. Romance, family life, fights, self awareness and a MM relationship. I love a good truckers story! This one however took me into a place I had not read too much about. Dan has had his world rocked, when an officer pulls him over. With no license he gets himself on a different road. But he will do whatever it takes to keep his promise to his daughter. Even drive with another driver until he can get his California drivers license. He is short of money for his daughter’s college and driving with another driver could get him what he needs. Jake is his probation rider, and a complete rule follower. No speeding, nothing to ruin his perfect driving record. He also is homosexual and Dan is not comfortable driving with him. So with no spoilers you will need to read this story. The author is new to me. Her writing is clear and fast paced. This story kept me reading and the characters are easy to fall for. And the relationship between these two men is quite informative. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Creatures of the Night by C.A. King – Review by Sheri Schrader

Creatures of the NightCreatures of the Night by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Creatures of the Night is a new book by author CA King. I was excited to pick up a new book by this author because I always enjoy her storytelling. This book is set in a dystopian, science-fiction world. Zoe lives in a world that has been at war for generations fighting monsters and demons. She has been always been a fighter, but what does she do if falls for the enemy? Whom will she choose, the family she loves or for romance? I always enjoy books by this author. I tend to read straight through to the end and this was no exception. Zoe is a strong female questioning everything she has learned about herself and those they have been battling. I like that she has to face some internal issues and not just physical tests. I would like to know if we will get more from this world or if this will be a standalone book. There is a lot more that can be explored. I look forward to picking up more books from this author soon.

The Silent RoadThe Silent Road by S.N. McKibben
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First off, I want to say that it was refreshing to read a novel based in the trucking world. I could totally relate to the story. Being a trucker’s wife can suck, but reading about the feelings of everyone on the road was insightful, even being a fiction book. Dan is dealing with a lot. Getting found out for not having a license, having dyslexia; and trying to help his daughter. Toss in Jake and the feelings he develops and the antagonists Troy and Steve…. This book was remarkable. As I sad, the author wrote almost as if they had experienced some of it. Totally realistic story. My emotions were all over the place with this story. Two people trying to deal with hard feelings and baggage. All they want to do is live in peace. You have to read this story, it will touch you. It is M/M, not my usual genre but the story could be anything and it still touches human motion. The ending of the book got me right in the feelers. This is a new author for me. I hope to read more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was very enjoyable. Not only were there steamy scenes but really raw and heartbreaking moments. I both loved and hated that this story shows what this gay man goes through for simply being himself. Dan stands up for Jake even though he is confused about his own feelings and is very upset that someone would have to go through that. I really enjoyed watching Dan realize his own feelings and tell Jake how he really feels, he may not be able to promise forever, but he can live in the right now. It was also nice to get a small glimpse into the day of a trucker, I like how this was all happening within a weeks time so it just felt current. Wonderful MM romance.

The Summer I Went CrazyThe Summer I Went Crazy by Laura Koerber
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book made me mad but not because of the author or the story but of the raw real life manner in which everyone handled the assault of young Claire. This story is well written, very life-like at aspects but in others it’s new ideas and shows a new thought process. Ben saw something horrible at a party, now he has found new friends and is trying to make it alright but is he losing his mind? Reading the epilogue at the beginning you aren’t sure you understand but by the end when you reread the epilogue, it definitely phases you. I had so many good emotions that brought tears.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was my first book with a male relationship with sexual scenes. I’m not sure it is something I’d go out of my way to read a whole genre of but definitely thinks everyone should try a new book at least once, you never know what you may be into. The story itself had everything you look for in a book; love, family, fights, and real world issues. It was well written and had the right amount of detail. Dan is trying to get pay for his daughter’s college when an annoyed cop pulls him over causing a chain of events to occur. Now he is stuck with a homosexual riding partner so he can get his CDLs. Will Dan learn new things about himself? Will his daughter’s college be paid for? Will Dan find love in the place he never knew existed?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book. It was an interesting read for me. The author does an amazing job of allowing the reader into Dan’s head and you really get to understand all the confusing feelings and emotions he goes through as he discovers his feelings towards Jake are moving to something deeper than just work mates. Dan is a hard character to like at first with his thoughts and feelings towards Jake being very vocal and not in a positive way. Dan is hard work and sometimes hard to like. Jake on the other hand is a caring soul. He embraces his sexuality and isn’t ashamed of it.
As they journey together they learn more about each other and circumstances bring them closer together than either of them thought possible. Will Jake turn out to be the missing piece in Dan’s life without him even realising he was looking in the wrong place all along?
This book is beautiful to read and see the characters growth through out really made this book a great captivating read

His Protector by Sara Vinduska – Review by Katie Matthews

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What an introduction to this new author! His Protector was a wonderful read and in all honestly such a refreshing read. I loved the storyline for this book and it really was so well written. The relationship between the two main characters was so genuine and believable. I think given the plot a slow burn worked perfectly, I think anything else wouldn’t have felt right and I’m so glad the author chose to write their relationship that way, The suspense that ran through the story was great and my attention was definitely kept the whole way through.
This really was a great read and I am definitely looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future!

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I have enjoyed reading her books from the first one I picked up. This one is no different. It is a shorter story that packs a punch for sure. A story where it will bring emotional characters and suspense together. A story where there is a witness and one phone call made forty years later that could change things. I found this book to be well written, engaging and hard to put down. A fast paced story that kept me coming back for more. There are twists and turns that had me sitting on the edge of my seat. The plot has great growth throughout which made the story easy to read. This is an entertaining story that I highly recommend.

Falling for You (Buckeye Falls, #2)Falling for You by Libby Kay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was so excited to pick up the second book in this series and it didn’t disappoint! I fell in love with CeCe and Evan straight away – they were both such relatable and down to earth characters, very much so like the characters in book 1. CeCe was hurt by what had happened in her past so think it’s perfectly acceptable that she is so independent and has her walls up to try and protect herself from being hurt again. I knew as soon as CeCe and Evan met he would be the one to heal her and show her how lovely a relationship can be, he was such a true gentleman and I just adored him! I also loved the community feel in this book, all of the characters both main and secondary were lovely!
This really was a beautiful story, well written and with amazing characters. I would highly recommend it and I can’t wait for more from this author!!

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. I never hesitate to pick up one of her books. They are full of laughs and romance. I enjoy how she brings her stories to life with her creative writing skills. This book is no different. The characters pulled me into their world from the start. They are connectable and added so much to the story. They made me laugh at times and crazy at others. They have great chemistry and growth throughout the story. This is a story where a business needs to be saved but these characters may find that the business is not the only thing that is worth something. I really enjoyed these characters and how they made the story easy to read. This is a story you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book and this author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a really enjoyable children’s book and one that would be a great introduction to fantasy for younger readers. The story was really easy to follow and read. It would definitely get young imaginations going as the author really did well with the descriptive language. I could easily imagine what things looked like and even imagined what some of the characters would sound like. I liked that there were chapters in this story and would be perfect for children to read before bed at night.
The main character Princess Zarina was actually a really great character progression wise, as her story evolved so did she as a character.
Overall a great story and on I would definitely recommend for young readers.

Ruthless Hawke (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 1) by Gwyn McNamee – Review by Dr. Anya Schultz

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

After “Night Hawke” left you on a cliffhanger, of sorts, it was totally worth it for “Ruthless Hawke”. I really loved book one in this series. This book starts 5 years after ‘Night Hawke’ with Issac (aka Nolan) in court working for his family’s businesses as their lawyer. After court that day he gets an emergency text from the family to get over to his dad’s office. On the other side of the story, Mina (aka Jack) is on her way to New Orleans to “hide” with a family friend of her father’s that she has never met. Her mother is Donne in Chicago and threats have been made against the family. Until the threat is handled they want Mina in a place no one would look. While not trying to give too much away, you come to see very quickly how Nolan and Jack will reunite after these 5 years. Two people who have been obsessed with each other, in their own minds, but never thought they will ever see each other again are now going to be emotionally jolted. The man she has been dreaming about is now her protector. Needless to say, Issac is pretty pissed after how they parted, but there are many complications coming their way. Can Issac handle being around this woman who has haunted him for so long, and can he keep her safe from this threat? Will the secrets the two have been keeping come out and affect the situation? Will they be able to keep their hands off each other? It is definitely a great story projected just what a small world it is out there.
I really enjoyed this book. I thought the plot was fast-moving and interesting, the characters were loveable, and the surprises along the way were great. As for the characters, these two together are just magic on paper. Issac is a confident, over-protective, possessive (in an endearing way), smart, and overall sexy character. Mina is a strong, but shelter woman. She hasn’t been given much freedom in her life, but she still is a dreamer, realist, creative, talented female character. The two have great chemistry even when they are fighting. The intimate scenes, while it is mainly a plot-driven book, are amazing. He is a dirty talker which helps you truly visualize the aspects that are happening between the two of them. The one thing that was a little difficult is that there are a lot of characters introduced and it was really hard to keep track, but props to the writer she kind of include the difficulty in the characters remembering family too. I am excited to read other books that come out in this series.

Cover Designer – Get Covers

Marriage, parenting, and making ends meet is a long road to haul─and I’ve screwed it all up.  My ex thinks I’m a deadbeat. My daughter has lost all faith in me.  As a long-haul truck driver, I haven’t been there for either of them. Now that I’ve been caught driving my rig without a license it proves them right.

Since I’m on probation, I’ve been forced to take a co-driver on the road with me and prove to him that I can safely pass my commercial license, even though I’ve been doing this for a decade.

This is my last shot to continue with my company and prove myself to my broken family. I’ve missed a lot but I’m going to make it up to my daughter. I’m not going to blow it.  Not this time. I’m going to get the money my daughter needs. There’s a financial bonus in my future if I can talk Jake, my co-driver and probationary instructor, into hustling his laidback, rule-following ass into finishing the job early. 

As Jake and I travel together, the long drive and miles ahead of us bring us closer than I’m comfortable with─or am I?  Suddenly, I’m feeling things I never thought possible with another man. Could Jake be the “ride or die” I’ve been yearning for my entire life?  Is the road less traveled the one I’ve always needed?  Am I scared? Hell, yes!

The way Christie and Reed meet is anything but ideal but at the same time trauma can help bring two people together.

What starts out as one of the worst nights of her life ends up turning into a completely different story for the two of them.

I think Reed is my favorite so far, could be the Texas thing but I think it is more than that. Another short but interesting story about this SEAL team and can’t wait to see who falls next.

I really enjoyed this book and found myself disappointed when I couldn’t find the time to read it. This story was cute, fun and even had a small plot twist in it.
Cash and Hollis were adorable from start to finish. Their banter was fun to follow and made me gasp and laugh out loud. The family dynamic and the love for animals also had me hooked from the start. This was a good, fast, lighthearted easy read.
This was the first book that I read from this author, and I found myself wanting to know more about the other characters, which I was THRILLED to find out that I can because she wrote stories on some of them.

Set in the mountains of North Carolina, two small town business owners have a rivalry going on. Cash’s brewery is just getting its legs when Hollis moves in next door. Her dog grooming business is at odds with the brewery for a multitude of reasons. When the Hollis and Cash start pranking each other, things go a little too far.
Opinion
The setting of this book is right up the road from me. Stewart does a great job emanating what a town in the mountains of NC would be like.
I personally enjoyed the scenes where the two main characters were fighting, not only each other but their own attraction to the other one. There were many places where I found myself laughing out loud at what happened.
Overall, I think that the best part of the book was the way the characters were described and the actions they took. I could imagine meeting people like the characters walking around town with a little vendetta on their mind against the other one.
I look forward to more books in this series.
