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!!

Before You Say I DoBefore You Say I Do by Marina Hanna
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was a great read. I love that the main characters had issues in their pasts and did what they could to move past them by setting boundaries. Emma will only have one night stands because of her past and when she meets Liam, that is about to change. They both agree to certain rules and boundaries but they quickly find that their hearts are moving faster than they would like. There are some steamy scenes in this book that help elevate the story line. I find that these scenes aren’t throughout the book but in very strategic places and that is what helps elevate the story line. There are some surprised in the book that I didn’t see coming and that made it even better. I love the simplicity of them falling in love. It kept me turning the pages and hating that it ended. There is character development throughout the book that doesn’t smack you in the face. It is at a pace that matches the story line. It isn’t like poof the characters are different then before. There is also struggle with the growth which makes the characters more relatable. With change comes some push back and that is what happens in this book. It is a gentle tug of war within themselves that grows into an amazing story. I highly suggest reading this.

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

This is he 9th book in the series but have no fear, if you just grabbed this one; you can read it without reading the others first. I alway recommend reading the other books in the series because you can get more intricate details of the characters and the story line. This book hooked me in from the beginning and it kept me entranced through the end. I love a missed connection type of love story. The main characters met before and due to circumstances they couldn’t explore that spark that they both felt. Jump forward some time and they have another meet cute. Guys, this story just melts you into the chair and allows you to just sink your teeth into you lip and read. I could not be disturbed by anything while reading this. Food – I just walked while reading to get something to feed my face. lol. I could not put this book down as the growth with the characters developed so did my grip on the book. It was a quick read for me because of that reason. I feel like this book was very well written and written in such a way that you don’t even realize that you got to the end of the book by the time you finish it. I highly suggest reading this book and the whole series. You will not be disappointed.

Finders Keepers, Cowboy (Match Made in Montana #1)Finders Keepers, Cowboy by Rachelle Paige Campbell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the series and it’s a little of a rough start. I am giving this book 4.5/5 stars because it has amazing potential and I feel that the books to follow in this series will definitely be more polished. It has good bones just needs little work in the characters. Ugh that isn’t even fully correct. The characters are good, they are complex but a little too complex for the story line. I felt like they jumped all over the place or said one thing and then did another. Just when I started to mesh with them something would happen that wouldn’t be in line with what I thought should happen. So this doesn’t mean that they aren’t good or written well. It just means I had a difficult time finding that gel that makes one connect with the characters. The book it self is written well, it is definitely an enemies to lovers trope. It has romance and love but in a very clean almost sweet package. You do feel the emotions of the characters. This is why its between 4.5 and 5 stars for me. It has everything to be a star booklet I didn’t gel with the characters throughout the book which made it hard for me to pay attention or not get sidetracked by something else, which is why it would be a 4.5 star review. Like I said earlier, I feel that the following books in this series are going to be amazing and I am looking forward to reading them. It was a really cute break from what I normally read and the story line is really, really good.

Although this book is the third in the series, it can be as a standalone without feeling as if you have missed something important. I can not wait to read more from this author.

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

This is the second book of Ashton and Zach. This book did not disappoint. I will start off by saying that you really need to read the first book to fully comprehend what is happening but if you didn’t, you would be able to understand everything that is going on. It just might take a little while to piece things together. This book is not short of steam and passion. It will have you blushing while reading this. It was a very quick read and even though I felt that it could go on forever, it packs a big punch for the storyline in a short amount of time. You will be turning pages as quickly as possible to see what happens next. There is the element of surprise with this book when the past comes lurking forward. There isn’t as many scenes in this book as I thought there would be with it being somewhat centered around a BDSM club. The said, it doesn’t mean that the steam between the characters isn’t there. This is the continuation of their relationship and them learning to really trust each other. They already have trust inside the club but they now need to really trust each other on the outside. This is such a good read and it won’t take you long at all. Again, I suggest that you read the first one because it is a continuation of the characters but you can pick it up quickly if you didn’t. Also, if you didn’t and read this one first, go back and read the first book in this series, it will help fill some gaps that you might experience.

This story was cute once you got into it, but it was a bit all over in the beginning. Give it a chance and get into it some and you will see that it all comes together! Timmy, Beth and Arthur are working on a science project in the woods. A lot of things are going on at once here. Beth is trying to get a soil sample, Arthur is writing a song, and Timmy is looking for a monster in the woods. When they’re heading back towards the well, they get a call about their teacher getting surgery and needing someone to watch over her dog. Her dog Cody can wag her tail in Morse code! How cool is that?! Super fun! At the same time their teacher lets them know about a hidden map to a 200 year old time capsule! There are clues on the map, but no X that marks the spot! Deciphering the clues will take time, but they only have a week! If they find it in time they get a $1000 reward, but what they don’t know is that it holds a 200 year old secret that someone wants kept quite! Danger follows them and they don’t even know it!! Follow these three in their adventure to find a town’s treasure. Super cute story and of course I’d recommend it! I’d say this book is good for any child ages 6-12.

This was a fascinating story. I loved the story of Marjorie and how crazy life gets for her. It’s a paranormal story with a bit of everything in it. Werewolves, twins, etc. make for some crazy action-filled drama. I was drawn in straight from the beginning and just couldn’t put it down. This is a story that grabs you because of the characters and the story. It’s well-written and holds your attention. I can’t wait for the next book to come out.

This is the first time reading from this author. I initially enjoyed reading these types of books, there is just something different about this one.  I honestly didn’t really read the synopsis because the cover just grabbed my attention. Each story keeps me wanting to read more. I really get into them just to move on to another short story. I really wish that they weren’t short stories at all. There is so much missing because there is no real ending. I am left wanting more from each. They each bring something different to the table, bed, couch really where ever you are reading it at. I have no favorite because they get and keep my attention and my make so many pictures dance in my head.

I just love all of these books! There are a few to this series and I have read a few so far. If you are even thinking about getting your child a puppy/dog/pet you should definitely read this book with your child! These books teach you so much about the needs of the dog, the responsibilities with having a dog, and everything in between. Which of course you can use as a lesson with any animal you get. In this book you follow CJ and Lora on their quest to learn everything they can about dogs. What they need (food, water, training, vet visits, grooming, personal space, exercise, patience, etc.). They also learned about different breeds (small, medium, big, some that need more space to run, some that are small and need more attention, etc. etc. etc.). After learning as much as they can they go to their parents to ask for a dog and tell them everything they have learned and what they must do to have a dog. The parents believe they are ready and you get to meet Porter, who is a Mastiff and Midge, who is a Greater Swiss Mountain dog. Both different and both have different needs. If you read some of the other books in this set you will get to see them more and learn all about them, other dogs, and all their needs. This is a wonderful set for kids. They will learn all kinds of things! Adults could even learn from this book! I did and I’ve had dogs throughout my whole life!!

This book is quite the surprise. I was not expecting the level of steam from this book so quickly and the short stories are amazing. They have a plot, great characters, steam, and are just enough to get you hooked. I flew through these pages so quickly that I was left a book hangover. I found myself so emerged into the stories that I didn’t even move for an hour. The steam that is on these pages did make me blush a time or two because, wow, is all I can say. One of the best things about this book is that there is something for everyone with these short stories. You could read a story a night and feel accomplished or you could read the whole thing in a couple days. (I did that) I really liked the writing style of the author and found that each story contained everything you would want in a full size novel. There wasn’t a lot of fluff that can sometimes happen and the scenes didn’t feel to drag on. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and can’t wait to read more from the author.

The Complete Echo Series (Echo #1-4)The Complete Echo Series by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an amazing series. Let start off by saying that I am a sucker for box sets. I love being able to go from book to book without a break or even having to search for them. This story has an amazingly well described setting that you can visualize yourself there. That is just the tip of the iceberg. The characters in this series makes you want to be their friends and to hang out with them on weekends. You will find yourself absorbed into their relationship with each other and the other characters. I even found myself trying to figure to who out of my friends is like the characters in the book. The love stories in each book are endearing in their own unique ways. Each book revolves around different couples but the characters are intertwined that you feel as if you’re reading one incredibly long book. This was a quick read even though it was multiple books. I found myself being drawn from one couple to next while seeing snipers of the other characters. I highly suggest reading this series if you love romance, amazing couples, wonderful meet cutes, and incredibly deep connections. I will find myself back in this series to enjoy these characters in the future because it is just that good, that re-reading it is must.

Mistaken Identity (London Detective Agency Book 1) by Stephanie R. Caffrey- 5 out of 5 stars

This suspense-filled romance will knock you off your feet! The author wrote this book to be fast-paced and full of action without skipping any of the important details. It was hard to put the book down once I started reading. I am looking forward to reading more from this author. I highly recommend this book.

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #5)Fearless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a quick, fast paced read. It is the ending of the series. I feel that if you haven’t read the others in the series you could still read this and then go back and read the rest. There might be spoilers in doing so but it doesn’t distract from the story line. The characters in this book are amazing. The leading female is a single mom who has an amazing career. Her son is a character that you will love. The leading male character is just a really good guy. Those don’t generally exist, like there is normally some underlying issues or trauma that the male has to work through. Not with this book. The leading female is the one with the “baggage” in this story. There were times when I was wondering when the other shoe was going to drop but that didn’t happen either. There is growth for each of the characters and that brings them closer together. There is some steam in this book but you are more focused one the storyline that the steam. I felt like it was a great ending to a series. I am sad to see it end because I’m selfish and didn’t want to stop reading. I was at the end of the book before I even realized it. I highly suggest reading this if you love some small town, single mom, romance. It was just very heartfelt and uplifting to read.

House Valdis Origins: Xenobia (House Valdis, #0.5)House Valdis Origins: Xenobia by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the prequel to what looks to be an amazing series. When you first dive into this book you aren’t sure what to expect. I know I wasn’t sure. I however, learned vey quickly that this is a fast paced book and it is super easy to read. The way the author describes things makes it easy to understand the world that she is creating. It allows you to really visualize every little detail. You will get caught up in the life of Xenobia. She is an amazing character that has so many things going on and she goes with her gut instinct. It is amazing to see her navigate her way through things. I was caught up in this story from the start and it is such a quick read that I can’t wait to read book 1 in this series. I am glad that I read this before book 1, because I am bringing all of this knowledge with me to the next book. If you like Sci-Fi you will love this amazing world and characters that have been created. If you aren’t a Sci-Fi fan, like myself, you will still really like this book because there is more to than just Sci-Fi. I highly suggest reading this series because if this prequel is this good the other books in the series have to be amazing.
