Family Ties Family Lies by Jacqueline Boulden – Review by Heidi Sturgess

Family Ties Family LiesFamily Ties Family Lies by Jacqueline Boulden
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was just a reminder again of 2 things 1) that secrets always have a way of coming out and 2) sometimes ignorance is bliss because what we don’t know won’t hurt us ….

Rose ( love the name ) is a photojournalist and os injured ( more like trampled) while at a rally that turned a little wild so her camera is broken , she’s a little worse for wear with bruised ribs and an arm in a sling and now she’s got to go home to help with her mother after receiving a x CD all from her aunt and right now heading home is the last thing on her want to do list …..,

Rose’sI’m is diagnosed with terminal cancer and she calls her brother Kirk to come home and she uncovers what looks like a mystery in their family attic when she finds books , a travel bag and photo albums that hints at her father having another life and with her mum not answering her million questions and asking her to let sleeping hogs lies her curiosity is peaked even more ….

I loved every minute of this read , I learnt a few life lessons , I cried, I laughed , I got frustrated and irritated , I was reminded about how fragile life is and the liberating power of saying I’m sorry and forgiveness and I met some interesting characters along the way .

This is one of those books that when you read the last page you need some time to “ process “ it’ll stay with you ❣️📚

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Found Families Series but this is the first one I have read. This was a great read. The story was compelling and I could not put it down. Harry and Trey are great together and the banter between them is fun. The twists and turns kept me guessing till the end.

Kiss Me in this Small TownKiss Me in this Small Town by Willow Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh my gosh I just cried my heart out
I’m actually surprised I got any reading done ! Maybe it was my state of mind or maybe it was because my heart just felt so for Griffin and Renee , perhaps it was a combination 🤷‍♀️ anyhoo it was a good read and a release for all my inner toil it would seem 😉🥰📚

Griffin opens a bar the hometown Renee grew up in and Renee grew up in an abusive home and again trauma plays a big role , and my heart aches for her and her mum and quite frankly I want to dish out to get dad what he’s been giving for years snd see how he likes it !? He’ll probably cower away like the coward he is 🤮

Before I get carried away let me focus again 🤣 you can sense the tension between Griffin and Renee from the very first moment their eyes nest and you can’t help but cheer them on . Griffin has a heart of gold and he just perseveres and I so appreciate that of him , he follows his heart and he’s gentle with Renee and he heals a part of that very hurt and his family are so welcome and exactly what Renee and get mum needed 🥰

Don’t get me wrong there was steam and these 2 do get up to mischief in the workplace 😉but they’re a perfect match and I’m grateful for every tear I shed over them 🥰

Stars in the City (Stars in the City Series) by Krysten Lindsay Hager – Review by Faith Jackson

Stars in the CityStars in the City by Krysten Lindsay Hager
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book seems to glorify spinning the block (returning to an ex) for no reason other than your feelings. While this works well in novels and books, it’s not realistic, for some. Honestly, I’m not hating on it but it seems predictable.This book also highlights how to balance work, love, and ego which I can appreciate about it, nonetheless. So, if you’re looking for a Hallmark movie in book form, here you go. Again, I loved the book for reasons other than love: But that’s just my take.

The Magic Man (The Olympic Peninsula Series, Book 3) by Cat Treadgold- Review by Jaimie Salmon-Colburn

The Magic Man (The Olympic Peninsula series Book 3)The Magic Man by Cat Treadgold
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book three to The Olympic Peninsula series and even though you COULD read this without reading the others (the author does a wonderful job at explaining who everyone is and giving little tidbits to let you know what happened in the previous books), I personally would just recommend that you read them all. You don’t have to, like I said the author is wonderful, but I would. Plus once you read one you will want to read the others to learn about these wonderful characters and their somewhat odd stories/lives. In this book you read David and Maddie’s story. David returns to the family for his sister Teresa’s wedding (her book is number 2). It’s odd that he just shows up out of the blue and the rest of the family can’t quite get a read on him. He’s been a surgeon in Africa for the last four years, but he doesn’t want to discuss it. He also doesn’t want to talk about his fiancée who’s coming to visit around the holidays. Weird right? But they’re not the only guests visiting the family. Maddie who is a serious actress is also staying at the O’Connell Compound and she has a leading role at the local theater! Unfortunately her co-star is Kilo, who’s the local yoga instructor, Teresa’s ex husband, and a huge charmer of the ladies. Even though she is drawn to David, knowing he’s engaged and his life is going another direction Maddie is pulled into Kilo’s web full of charm and excitement. She’s okay with a little theater fling, but it will end when the show does. Right? David wants Maddie, but his life is so complicated right now. He left Africa for a reason, he is busy appeasing his fiancée, and he also needs to figure out some custody issues as well. These two would have been perfect for each other. Time just isn’t on their side. Their lives are not on the same path right now. If only they could hit a reset button and meet each other at another time in their lives. Such a great series!! I can’t wait to finish it!! Grab this set today if you love contemporary romances with twists and turns and even a little magic!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a bright and colorful story of a young girl imagining writing her book. She wants to write about the Queen of the Fairies. What would she be like? What would she do?…It’s very creative and helps the child to use their imagination in thinking along with the young girl. I loved the message that you can write your own story too. Use your imagination. Be creative. Be you. It’s an entertaining story that I will enjoy reading to my granddaughters.

Managing Mischief (Shattered Embrace Series) by Alyndra Quinn – Review by Micalah Weatherholtz

Managing Mischief (Shattered Embrace #2)Managing Mischief by Alyndra Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Managing Mischief is the second book in the Shattered Embrace Series and is a continuation of the couple Zachary and Ashton in book one. The author says it can be read as a standalone, and there is enough details, clues, and context added that would allow you to read it as a standalone, but I always love to read in order as it makes the whole relationship between the two deeper and helps me understand what’s what. Book two focuses on the relationship dynamics, more ‘real life’ over ‘club life’, between the two rather than the club dynamics of the two as book one did, but it was as equally entertaining as book 1. The chemistry between the two was still high, and there was some spice. I loved the point of view being from them both. Overall this was a great follow up and I am excited to see where book three takes us.

We follow the story of the two young women and their dispensary, they try to get to the bottom of an apparent murder, there is suspense, malice and rivalry all rolled together into a book that paints a world vividly and keeps you entertained. I am away to read the second book in the series straight away.<br />

The Closer (The Hustlers Series, #3)The Closer by Rowan Rossler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The Closer is Book 3 in The Hustlers Series and wow…..I loved this enemies to lovers story, with dark and twisty secrets, romance, drama and chemistry off the charts between June and Dallas. While this book could be read as a standalone I highly recommend reading this series in order as characters are intertwined into this final book in the series. I am sad this series is over as I love the characters so much but I am also looking forward to more in the future from this talented author.

June is in need of help when a scandal hits one of her start up companies and the investor catch wind and starts pulling away. The one thing June did NOT want to rely upon for help was from Dallas Evener…the same man she never wanted to deal with ever again as their past history has been nothing nice. Dallas is arrogant and gets what he wants….all business…and also wants June to give a big portion on her company for his help. When June is at her wits end and makes a deal with Dallas for the financial help that she needs….things can get dirty. Dallas is plagued by the past and hidden secrets…..with it all said and done…will Dallas help June out of financial worry while the chemistry between them continues to spark with un-deniability?

Definitely read and find out.. This story took me one a roller coaster of emotions….I loved every page!

Mistaken Identity (London Detective Agency Book 1)

I did something I didn’t think was possible, I read this book in one day and it was a holiday on top of that. But once I got started reading I had a very hard time putting it down.

One minute Evelyn is running through the airport with her biggest concern being making her connecting flight out of London. Running into a total stranger changes everything and thankfully it’s not all negative.

Evelyn and Patrick are like oil and water. Then they were so much more. Throw in running from dangerous people only adds to the danger and intrigue of their situation.

I will be keeping up with this series and hopefully will enjoy the next book as much as I enjoyed this one.

On her way to Greece, Evelyn runs into a woman who looks a lot like her – down to the bag she carries. Unfortunately, before either can think too much about the coincidental meeting, their dropped bags are collected and they part ways – but it’s not long before Evelyn realizes she’s just taken possession of the wrong bag. In a rush, Evelyn decides to take the bag to the airport lost and found on her way to her terminal, hoping her own bag can be retrieved and sent to her while she travels. This is when Evelyn is practically abducted and comes face-to-face with a private investigator – who seems to be searching for her doppelganger. And this is where the adventure begins. Full of fast-paced, well-written mystery and chemistry, this book is a must-read that will leave you wanting more!

Secrets of the Moon (Chronicles of the Lost Child Series) by Kristy Centeno – Review by Mandy Ott

Secrets of the MoonSecrets of the Moon by Kristy Centeno
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Secrets of the Moon was definitely an interesting read. Filled with drama, suspense, and a touch of romance. The overall storyline I found intriguing, while the actual delivery was a bit disjointed. I found some parts of the story to be fast-paced and full of information while other parts were disconnected and felt like it just reiterated what had already been told. I felt like Marjorie and her friends were portrayed more like high school age rather than early 20s. This was also the case for the community college setting; I felt like it was more like a high school rather than a college. The small-town setting, however, was perfect for this story. The world building of Kristy Centeno was pretty good though. I could see the shadows of the trees, feel the breeze on my face, and hear the sounds of the forest while reading. I felt that this book had a lot of potential, but fell just a little bit short of what I was hoping for. However, I would be willing to read more by Kristy Centeno.

Managing Mischief : A Billionaire, Bossy Male, Opposites Attract Romance (Shattered Embrace Series Book 2

This is a more serious book than the first but just as enjoyable. I absolutely adore Ashton, and admire her for stepping so far out of her comfort zone at the beginning and while submissive she didn’t lose her voice.

The twist in Atlanta caught me off guard, but I loved it. I hope it comes full circle before this series is done.

Zachary is a Dom in every aspect of his life. He takes control and gets most people to do what he’s needing with little argument.

I’m curious about the location of the Austin club since it’s home for me.

I hate the fact that I have to wait for the next book, but I’m expecting to enjoy Derek’s story as much as Zachary and Ashton’s

Planting Seeds: Growing Mindful Children Through Yoga by Janice Pratt and Lenora Degen – Review by Amanda Gonazlez

Planting Seeds: Growing Mindful Children Through Yoga (Yoga for Kids: Lesson Plans for the Teacher Book 1)Planting Seeds: Growing Mindful Children Through Yoga by Janice Pratt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Diving into this book, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Of course, as it says in the title, this is a guide to yoga and meditation for children, but I got a deeper meaning from the reading/guide. There’s an underlying teaching of mindfulness towards the world, guiding the reader (presumably a guardian) to expand a child’s view of the word and be more understanding of others in their community – rather than solely focusing on internal mindfulness. That aside, there’s an active component to the guide that would make this a fun experiment and activity for young children. I would recommend this guide for teachers or daycares, as well as for families if they would like to use this resource to help children become more mindful while also proving fun activities for them to actively participate in.

This is a super fun read. It could definitely be a beach read, but don’t take it with you while you are vacationing at a cabin in the woods. The characters are wonderfully developed, and the author moves the plot along at a good pace. I’m a dog person, so I enjoyed the dogs, as well as the relationships of the pets with the main characters. Family relationships are explored, as well as the bond between different sets of twins.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Finders Keepers Cowboy is a cute, clean romance. It was no surprise how it ended, but I still enjoyed the story along the way. Meg and Ryan have known each other practically their whole lives. Their family properties are next to each other, and Meg’s mom and Ryan’s grandfather are close friends. We get the feeling early on they dislike each other. However, we soon learn their irritations are masking deeper feelings. I like the characters, as each was strong and independent. Hank is a great addition and I love his character. The supporting characters were developed enough to feed into sequels, and I hope that is the direction the author is heading. We need to see what happens at Frontier Days and with the herd, decking and Hank’s big birthday bash. The last chapter was a little cheesy but wrapped things up nice enough.

What a cute story.
I enjoyed Meg and Ryan’s relationship with all their highs and lows, endearing traits and annoyances with one another. The history between them and hopes for a different future. But honestly the connection to Montana and the history held my interest. What Ryan was willing to do to keep the entire community afloat and tourists still coming to the area was something I connected with.
I really enjoyed Hank tho. His calm and cool personality, and yet saying things how he felt and trying so hard to help Ryan and Meg.
Ryan and Meg’s story is cute and keeps you rooting for them as everyone else is as well.
I am excited for this series to continue.

Make Me Burn (North Fork Series Book 9)Make Me Burn by Alicia Street
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book! I’ve read other books in the North Fork Series but I feel Make Me Burn is my favorite. The author does what she always does and sucks you into a story and a book one can’t put down. This was really the beginning of a whole new cast of characters that I’m not sure will pop up again if the author continues the series. However, only time will tell.
Jinx is floating through life. She wants that great love but every time she thinks she’s found it something is missing. Yet she could never figure out why till now, when the reason has made eye contact with her. The one that got away yet the one she can’t have. Her brother’s ex-best friend Logan. He’s the one she always wanted and was devastated when he left. She knew there was a falling out but she knew Logan and something was missing in the story.
Logan never thought he’d see Jinx ever again. And now she’s more beautiful than ever. She spent Holidays and summers with her family during his college years, and he secretly couldn’t take his eyes off of her, she was just off limits. She was also the only one to ever understand who he truly was. Unfortunately she’s off limits. Warned off by Victor when he told him to “never come near his family and especially his sister again.”
Does she still want him the way he wants her?
Is he willing to risk everything including his heart for one night?
That and so much more happens in this story. Are they able to overcome the obstacles they face? Well Jinx is determined to make that so.
So jump on in, take a ride on the rollercoaster that is Logan and Jinx’s connection/relationship. You’ll want more. You’ll get upset with characters for decisions they made but will be happy with the outcome.
