My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really loved this book and could not put it down. The banter between Damien and Zoe was funny, raw, and steamy. Teenage crushes are hard to let go of when faced with the gorgeous alpha man he is now. The vulnerability between the two is electric. This is the first time I have read a book by Danielle Jacks and I will most certainly be reading more. She has a way of grabbing you from the very start.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First off, the title to this book is spot on! I read the whole book in one night. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. There were so many twists and turns that you never knew what was going to happen next. It was thrilling.
The author shined some light on some metal illness which as someone who also suffers from mental illness was very captivating for me. It helped me to connect to the main character Paloma. She was struggling to understand what was real and what was in her head which just added to the darkness of the book.
It was very well written and easy to connect with the characters.
I would highly recommend reading this title if you are looking for a mysterious and dark quick read!

Chased (A Cambridge Men of Honour Novel Book One): A Dark Mafia Bad Boy Romance (Cambridge Men of Honour—Dark Mafia Romances 1) by Felicity Brandon – Review by Danielle Thompson

ChasedChased by Felicity Brandon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Chased (A Cambridge Men of Honor Book One): A Dark Mafia Bad Boy Romance by Felicity Brandon has all the trimmings of what one could hope for in a dark romance. It’s a first-person read told from the point of view of our two leading characters. Alegra is a lawyer with a strong personality and do-good moral compass who finds herself enthralled with a villainous male, Chase. Opposites attract indeed; he is the leader of the largest crime organization in Britain (albeit with the world at his fingertips). I actually appreciate that in sticking with the theme his character is true to what one would expect of someone involved in organized crime without all sugar-coating the character for the sake of making them more likable. Honestly in that position of power being a softy would make you weak and a target. So if you have any interest in organized crime historically you might appreciate that. The story is a page-turner and recommended for adults who enjoy a true “bad boy” type fictional character.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Betrayal at the Beach: A Cozy Christian Mystery (Dangerous Curves Book 1) by K.L. Montgomery was a book full of mystery and suspense. It is a great cozy read.

When tragedy hits the Bryce Beach Public Library, librarian Sunshine Baker must choose between solving the mystery and losing her job. Sunshine feels unusually equipped despite having no prior detective experience, thanks to her ninja YA librarian talents and all those Nancy Drew books she read as a youngster. Sunshine and her colleagues explore Bryce Beach for suspects, clues, and the stolen riches with the assistance of children’s librarian Molly Simmons and cataloguer Evangeline Dupree. Can Sarah and her team reclaim the funds raised at the library’s annual fundraising gala, as well as Bryce Beach’s most valuable historical item, the Bible with the signatures of the town’s founding fathers?

I loved every page of it. I can’t wait to read the rest of the other books in this series.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was another new author for me. The story was interesting. It has several things that I enjoy, vampires and wolves mixed with mythology. Livvie is a “wolf-less” daughter to a pack alpha and never felt truly at home there and then there is Darius, the son of Ra—The Egyptian Sun God and an ancient vampire. Their chemistry is undeniable between the two and you can’t help but root for them as a couple. If you like mythology with a touch of supernatural this book is for you.

While getting coffee, bodyguard Sheldon sees a man harassing a woman. He jumps in to rescue Alexis giving her the advice to file a report with the police. Later that day, when his employer needs a hairdresser, Alexis is the first one he thinks of. Soon he realizes the strange man is up to no good and is after Alexis. He quickly puts a plan in place to keep her and her roommate safe.
Opinion
The more I read in this series, the more in love with Ms. Mari’s writing style I become. The way she describes instantly falling in love makes it seem so natural (if only it were so.) I am now certain I am going to have to go back and pick up books 1 and 2 that I missed.
This series is perfect for the alpha male book lovers. Each book has a different man who’s love is all consuming.

I could not put this book down! It grabbed me from the very beginning and I couldn’t do anything but think about it when I wasn’t able to read. I love books set in historical settings, especially WWII, and this held me throughout the entire story. Even when I thought the story was done, it wasn’t even close. Lots of twists, turns, mystery, laughing, crying and always wondering what was next. I especially enjoyed the viewpoint of German citizens during the war and it’s immediate aftermath. The descriptions pull me into Germany and light up my desire to get back into learning the language and visiting at some point. I can’t recommend this book enough.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Blue Summer Part One by Everly Taylor is a story full of paranormal and romance. There is so much romance and drama that is ready to be unfolded. The paranormal is a nice bonus in this love story.

They spoke about Zayed, the blue-skinned man. They warned us that we should be afraid of them. Fear, on the other hand, was formed of ignorance, and I recognized how wrong they were all. I had no idea that my first meeting with The Zayed would forever affect not just my perspective, but also my life. Kidnapped for what the sorcerer felt she could provide him, only to be rescued and given exactly what he was looking for. Now she had to figure out her part in all of this in order to save not just herself, but the whole Zayed Community as well.

I loved every page of it. Every chapter was lovely. I can’t wait to read more books from this author.

Antipodes by T.S. Simons is an amazing book with romance. It has a thriller and even a form of dystopian. Many different kind of people can enjoy this book

Antipodes is a one-of-a-kind piece of fiction set in post-apocalyptic Australia today. Antipodes focuses on the qualities contemporary society lacks sustainability, inclusivity, community, and friendship and is aimed at young adults who are disillusioned with our world and worried for our planet’s ecological destiny. Cam Mackintosh is in his last year of a science degree at Melbourne University when he is offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help construct a fully sustainable society on an island off the coast of Australia after a devastating epidemic. The community is given a blank slate, a brand-new eco-village, shielded from the outer world yet equipped with much of today’s knowledge and technology. August Island’s community thrives and is built on current principles such as gender equality and cultural acceptance.

I loved every page of it. Every chapter was thrilling. I can’t wait to read more books from this author. Readers who appreciate Margaret Atwood’s environmental fiction, such as Oryx and Crake, or work by Piers Torday, Frank Cottrell Boyce, and Sarah Crossan’s Breathe, will love this book.

The chemistry between Max and Claudia is just amazing. I really like how this book is really outlining how both are really finding themselves. Max cause magic is new to him and Claudia cause of the bad experiences she has had all her life. I really like how the author is able to keep the paranormal realistic with each person really personified and down to earth.

Blood Mug by W.F. Ranew is the fourth book in the Red Farlow Mysteries Series. This boom can be read as a stand-alone although personally I think reading them in order is best to get a full understanding of the main character.
This a great addition to the series. The book is full of intrigue right from the start. It started off with a bang and the author kept the twists and turns coming. I was instantly curious about what was going on and who was responsible. It was great to get back into reading about Red. He is an interesting character and one I fine easy to fall back into with each new book I read.
As with the other books in the series this one was well written and developed just right from start to finish. The author has created a strong series that is always a pleasure to read more if. This is a book well worth reading and I am excited to see what else might come in the future.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Finding this book, I was completely intrigued. Vampires and werewolves? What’s not to love? As I began to read, it did pull me in. Vampires and werewolves that want peace between them? A wolf less werewolf? That’s a new concept – especially since most werewolf stories are pretty much the same.
Now, the story, I did like. The characters were great too. The one thing that yanked me away from the story was how quick it changes to different characters and the voices seemed mudded as well. It also felt hard to follow at times since there was the main story and a bunch of little stories tangled in there too.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This started out wonderful. I enjoyed the meeting and the sarcasm. Then it seemed like I slipped into something else. All of that was gone and the book seemed to become more about a story filled with their history that needed to be told. The banter seemed gone as shock and softness became the normal. I liked the first two Zayed she met and loved their banter. I struggled making a connection to the characters except for Lillie and I do like Heath. But that seemed to fade away as well.

This is a reverse harem and also it ends on a cliffhanger. Two of my least favorite things. Why did I read this you ask? The synopsis sounded interesting and if the writing and characterization is good enough it doesn’t bother me. Plus I am always pleased when I am proven wrong. That is why I gave this one a chance.

When you start delving into your history are you sure you want to uncover the past.

Anna is trying to uncover a family secret but she did not expect it to go down the rabbit hole and uncover the shocking truth.

I have to first say this is not normally a genre I would ever contempt reading but I am missing a whole genre of interesting and brilliant stories. Maria’s story has you on journey back through WWII to uncover a gripping secret which has been in her family and she wants to finally put it to rest but can she. You find yourself through the looking glass and walking and investigating right with her.

The book and writing draws you into a world of horror and destruction but it is such a compiling read you forge ahead to discover the truth with each page turned and chapter read. This story has wet my appetite to read more from this genre and be a book Indian Jones.

Thank you Maria for your stories and passion which is shown in this book.

Chase is pure evil, he has to be to run the most notorious criminal gang in England but he has to questioned the is there any humanity in his soul but then Allegra comes into his life.

Chase is the leader of the most hideous criminal gang but although he demands the world and takes everything else with out question, one chance meeting makes him question himself and can does he have any humanity left in his soul to love.

Allegra is a law student minding her own business when she is almost run over by Chase, she feels the sparks from that minute but after she realises who he is, can they go there separate ways or is Allegra willing to submit to biggest gangster and become his property more than his equal.

I have to say if you are not into the darker side of life and are turned away by trafficking, degradation of people and especially violence then this may not be the book for you. I understand that this in not everybody’s cup of tea but if you truly read the story you will find a brilliantly, well written story with complex characters and nail biting twist and turns.

Is Chase a Barsteward, YES! is he evil YES! but I think this just makes for a more meaningful story, Allegra is a strong, intelligent young women who is the best character to address and fight against the bad behaviour of Chase. To see the turmoil for both of them as Chase has never met anyone who has openly defied him like she has which frustrates that he can not control her, let alone possess her and he has to try and deal with those emotions and has to learn to be more for her. Then also the dilemma that Allegra has that if she gives just a little bit to Chase will she lose her free will and become a piece of property and not an equal which is such an intriguing read.

I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and see where the next instalment sits.

This is the first book I have read by Bernadette Marie but I love a good cowboy story and this did not disappoint. I loved the characters and I think when a author shows them with flaws and all you find them more endearing and relatable to invest your emotions in and Eric and Susan do not disappoint. They both have to overcome some major life changing dramas and feeling you are working this out them is great.

The story is well written and the characters as I have said were brilliantly, I also thought the secondary characters really enhanced the story and can’t wait to read the stories of each of the brothers and see their histories uncover as I bet there are a few juicy stories in them.

Thank you Bernadette for introducing me to another family to invest in and can’t wait to read the next instalment.

Elusive is the fifth book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series by Via Mari. This is another fantastic addition to the Billionaire Bodyguards romantic suspense series- and again we are thrust into an action-packed adventure, with plenty of danger, sex traffickers, hidden agendas, mystery, hot sizzling encounters, intrigue, and romance.
As with the rest of the series, this book could be read as a standalone, as each book in the series focuses on a different couple. But, having said that, I really recommend reading the previous books before starting on this one, because not only are they great stories in their own rights- but you’ll get to meet the recurring characters (who you will want to know more about), as well as the bridging background story that is being revealed as the series evolves.
This is Alexis and Sheldon’s story (whom we have met previously)- where Alexis finds herself in a sticky situation when an international sex trafficker sets his eyes on her and Sheldon is tasked with protecting her. What happens makes for an exciting read.
As I have said before- Via Mari is known for her superb romantic suspense stories and this book showcases that beautifully. She easily builds gripping suspense, intrigue, palpable tension, and sizzling chemistry- while balancing it all with lighter moments and believable emotion.
Another unputdownable read from this talented author!

Thank you, Via Mari!

The author does an amazing job with the characters and setting the scenes. It was a little confusing at first with the story coming from different characters viewpoints and from so many characters but if you keep at it you can figure out who belongs to which group and they it’s easier to understand.

As the name suggests its a romance story about 2 people from different groups. 1 a vampire and 1 a werewolf. Together their relationship could heal the years of pain and misery between the two groups but will they agree with this bonding? Or will the past that exists between the vampires and werewolf be too much to overcome.

Sheldon is a bodyguard protecting those who pay enough to make sure they have the best of the best, but a chance meeting in a coffee shop puts his world into a spin and does he really now what he is getting himself involved in when he meet Alexis and the attraction is instant.

Alexis calls to Sheldon’s dominant side which he does not often show this side of him as it tends to to be too intense for other woman, but Sheldon’s dominants calls to Alexis in a way she has not felt before but their is a secret which needs to be hidden or she may get him involved or even killed.

Sheldon and Alexis are drawn into a danger, action and hot attraction can they survive the predator that has Alexis in his sights and will not let go with out a fight.

Oh my lord, Via Mari has done it again, this story is epic. If you are looking for a nice romance with a bit of drama I suggest another book, this is full of sexually tense, hot action and a bad ass male dom in the middle of a great story.

I love all the characters that are portraited in this series but I have to admit I loved the character of Sheldon, don’t me wrong he’s no saint but hell I would love to sin with him. The tense that slowly builds between the main characters is brilliant and adds to this intense story. I book flows through brilliantly and you hardly keep track of time when reading which is always a sign of of a brilliantly written story.

I can’t wait to delve back into this world with the next book in this series or any of her other series, one I definitely recommend you need to read, but not just this one the whole series is brilliantly.

Blue Summer (Part One) is an intriguing fantasy by Everly Taylor. Imagine an adult version of the Smurfs- well that’s what this story reminded me of. There’s magic, mystery, romance, sizzle, humour, drama, an evil sorcerer, clever world-building, and a fun storyline.
As this is the first book that I have read by Everly Taylor, I really didn’t know what to expect going in- but the premise sounded interesting, and the cute cover sealed the deal. While I enjoyed the story, I really do wish it had been longer, so I could have really immersed myself in the story and really gotten to ‘know’ the characters and their ‘world’ so much better. That’s not to say that the story was lacking, just that it could have been even better had there been ‘more’.
The timeline in the story only covers a couple of days, so there is a very fast pace which made for a very quick read. It ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, so I will definitely be reading the second book to discover what happens.
So, if you’ve always wondered what an adult version of the Smurfs might be like, then this is definitely the book for you!

Thank you, Everly Taylor!

Eye of the Storm is an action packed story from start to finish, the story is set within the deepest of the jungle but will he be able to trust her or will she turn on him in the end.

This story is full of twists and turns, it will have you chasing the story with each turn of the page to be part of the story as you go. The book is set in the jungle and follows the story of Chris and Mari, as Chris is airdropped into this dense jungle he does not quite reach his destination and becomes stuck and unable to remember who he is and how he has got there, until he meets Mari who helps him try to understand who he is but Chris is no sure he can trust her.

Mari is on a mission of her own, this feisty, strong character who does not take any nonsense, she has grown up in the most dangerous environment but she is on her own mission which she will not defer from.

I loved this story with the twists and turns and the action had me gripped and wanting to keep listening even in the wee hours of the morning to finish this wonderful story. I loved the character of Mari, she was a kick ass women who knew what she wanted and went for it. The relationship between Mari and Chris was dynastic and interesting within the story.

I suggest starting with the first book, so you get a feel for the MC and who he is.
