Cabin Eight (The Millersville Series Book 3) by Susan Specht Oram

Cabin Eight is the third and final book in The Millersville Series and is a Psychological Thriller that will have you turning the pages while on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what is going to happen next. I truly enjoyed this book and it definitely left me with questions. This author is fairly new to me and I must say this one is my favorite yet. Her style of writing is intense and suspenseful and packed with just the right amount of action and drama. Her characters are developed and intense and relatable. The twists and turns had me tied up just when I thought I had it figured out something totally different happened. This can be read as a standalone but I recommend reading this series in order. You get to know the characters and you get a better understanding of what is going on. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what Miranda is up to . I look forward to seeing what this author brings us next.

When Miranda finds herself trying to deal with her emotional and tragic past she finds herself having more tragedy to deal with. In trying to “find herself and move past her past” she finds herself at a resort in Millersville for a few days.

Little did she know this was a set up and she would be turned into an experiment. In having to deal with her past and her worst fears she finds herself trapped. Being trapped she discovers a whole secret operation going on that is very ethically wrong.

Can she be brave and conquer the fears and survive? Will she be able to help those that want to get out? You must read this story that will keep you guessing as to what will be thrown in her path next!

I have quickly come to love this author and this story is one that did not disappoint in keeping me engaged and guessing! Can’t wait to read more from this author!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jasmine and her friend Phil are trying to get away with stealing a good amount of money from Jasmines boss. All so she can help her sick father with treatment. However they get robbed by a pair of thieves who have a little more experience under their belts!

This story is full of shenanigan’s from each pair, Jas and Phil, Bets and Zerk, Dan and Robbie. When Bets and Zerk are hiding in plain sight and don’t expect to be found. Then the original thieves outsmart them and show up!

You must read to find out if the original pair of thieves are able to steal their money back and what happens to each pair. I loved this story and found it comical at times even remarking out loud how dumb they were being!

The second of the Millersville series, it can be read as a stand alone (it is set in same location but uses different characters).

Loved how the book is told in two different, intertwined stories (Jas who steals money to help her ailing father, and the thieves that “one-up” the original robbers). – The plot twists and turns, alternating narrators almost every chapter, that lead the stories to one concise conclusion. As far as morality, I enjoyed how the author makes you question what (if anything) is worth stealing for. I didn’t enjoy this book as much as Shore Lodge, but it is still a worthwhile read because of the oddities of the characters and situations the author lands Jas in.

This book was a fast read and easy to get sucked into the story. However, you must be willing to set aside reality and the likelihood of the story actually happening. I struggled a bit with that aspect of the story. On that part, I would give the story 3 stars. But overall, it was fun to read, so I am giving it 4 stars. Miranda Diggs is the main character. She is struggling to find herself and figure out her life, especially with childhood trauma following her around. It really was a story of personal growth and learning how to not be selfish. I loved the resolution in the end!

Brave Kids: Short Stories to Inspire Our Future World-ChangersBrave Kids: Short Stories to Inspire Our Future World-Changers by K.J. Kaschula
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great collection of short stories for kids. My girls (ages 9 and 10) liked many of these stories, and I cried reading some of them. Each short story takes on a situation in which children may realistically face. For instance, some of them handle the loss of a loved one, or bullying and other situations. I would highly recommend this book for parents to read, and share stories as they may be helpful to children, but also may handle situations that aren’t necessarily “easy reading” for young children, unless the situation arises that may be helped by one of these stories.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a collection of short stories meant to empower and embolden youngsters. This book is great for self-readers (ages 7+) or for an adult to read to a smaller child. There are stories of loss, bravery, bullying, confidence, and more. The stories sometimes involve animals as the characters but mostly use humans in the story-telling. Children will be able to relate to many of the situations included, as well as the advice given by an elder to help them overcome the issue at hand.

These stories are relatively short, most being only 3-4 pages long. They would make great night-time stories or even as a short storytime read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read and reviewed a lot of this author’s children’s stories and this was just as good as the rest. I like how the author is taking fairy tales and bringing a more studious approach to them. I also like how she brings the subjects to life and makes it easier for children to understand. I only wish my children were young enough to give these books to enjoy. I highly recommend these to all parents of young children. The series does make learning more fun and helps make a boring subject for some easy and enjoyable.

Hero Complex (Bluestone Series, #3)Hero Complex by Isobel Reed
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the Bluestone series but can be read as a standalone as each book focuses on a different couple.

I love the fake relationships trope so I was really looking forward to reading this one and it did not disappoint!

The author’s writing style makes the story easy to follow as it flows nicely and gets the information across clearly. The author wrote the characters very well and I very quickly became emotionally invested in them.

I fell in love with both Ivy and Ace. Ivy for her strength in her grief and pulling through the tough times to continue with the ranch (and the sexism from potential clients) and Ace for his support and instinct to help which ends up getting them into the fake relationship situation.

From there, it was amusing and heartwarming to see the pair grow closer and overcome their fears and insecurities to get the happiness they deserve.

I’ve loved reading the stories in this series and am holding out for more!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Bluestone series which focuses on Lily and Jake’s story.

I was a little worried at first that this would be like a lot of other cowboy love stories I’ve read before but I am so glad to have been wrong. I thought the characters were really well written, they really shone through and found a place in my heart.

I loved Lily, she had the strength to start over somewhere new, away from everything she knew, and I admire her bravery in doing so. I loved her attitude and found her fun and entertaining, especially when around Jake. The chemistry between them kept me rooting for them to get together.

In addition to the great characters, I enjoyed the author’s writing style, it was clear and simple without being dull or patronising; it really increased my enjoyment in reading this.

I can’t wait to read more from this author!

I really enjoy this series. This book is no exception. I love all of the ups and downs, the different lifestyle and the danger that these bring. Lorenzo was not what I thought. I expected him to be a thin wiry guy with a pencil thin mustache. Not a muscled tattooed strong male. He is the thinker, the solver a Puzzles and a strategist. I enjoyed getting to know him better, and watch him grow as the story rolled along. I liked Izzy (or Isabelle to Lorenzo) but she was not a fav until we got closer to the end. I felt she became not herself as she became more embroiled in the Larussio particularly Lorenzo’s life. Near the end she really showed her true self which was nice to see.

Humans, demons, fairies, angels, vampires and much more.

I loved this book. I read through it so quickly. The characters have great dimensions and change as they interact with each other. I was bored with this story ever.

Jade (JD Williams), is a woman that has been used by a crime boss. He is now in jail because of Jade, his reach is far and wide and Jade is in hiding for testifying against him. Jade has lived in the human world all her life and now she is getting her eyes opened. She wakes one morning to find a man standing in her bedroom. Fiery Jade gives him a piece of her mind even though she is scared witless.

Baal, was the king of the underworld until he was ousted by his brother. Can he be trusted? Is he telling the truth? The story will keep you guessing.

I recommend you go on this amazing ride with this story. Leave the real world behind for a while and curl up with this book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this paranormal romance. The story is unique and I love the characters. Lillian is a really strong and determined character. Because of her abilities she is being hunted so she was forced into hiding but when her sister becomes ill she returns to save her, however she doesn’t have as much energy as she needs. She needs someone different, someone full of vitality energy to help fight and save her sister.
And she finds that in a Billionaire Tristain. Can she get him to help her sister? What will happen when she is seen with a popular Billionaire? Will her cover be blown after all these years?
Tristan doesn’t believe in anything paranormal. She when Lillian tries to explain her abilities he doesn’t believe her. However he has his own problems, with his mother dying could Lillian be the answer to saving his mother?
This is a very emotional story about 2 people trying to save the ones they love no matter what the cost. Even if that means Lillian’s cover is blown and the people she is running from finds her again.
I was really invested in these characters and their story. Once I started reading I couldn’t put it down.

Afflicted LoveAfflicted Love by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Afflicted Love is the first book in the Rhythm & Heart series and I am excited for book 2. This is an M/M romance about Kyle and Lyle. The two met as young boys who were struggling with life – both coming from abusive homes. Kyle had come to Lyle’s rescue one day and the two have been inseparable since. They called each other brothers and Kyle even took Lyle’s family’s name and became his protector. As they started to become teenagers feelings started to change, both loved each other as brothers but also as more. Kyle ends up getting kicked out, for reasons I won’t say, but promises to come back for Lyle because they both agree that they belong to each other, always, and will never leave each other’s side. However, being together is not something that can take place in their situational lives. Well, you know how it goes, life happens – one boy wants a life with the other, and the other can’t get out of their own demons. Throughout the book, you see the struggle the two have about loving each other but how they just are not good for each other. What happens though when you literally cannot live without each other? Can they find the courage to live the life they want and dream of? This book does end on a cliffhanger so I am urgently waiting for book 2.
I enjoyed this book a lot. I am excited for the second book but I am really curious about how things work out for these two. I want them to work out on one hand, but on the other, I want so much more for Kyle. At the beginning of the book, I thought I was going to end up hating Kyle and feeling bad for Lyle. Well, lets just say it is almost the opposite feeling. I am pissed at Lyle and want to smack him upside his head. Kyle, on the other hand, I completely adore and feel so much for his situation. He deserves so much for the turmoil he has endured his entire life. I am hopeful that he will get the life and future he deserves and desires. I also hope that Lyle gets his head out of his ass and realizes the life he could have and how happy he could be. There is a part of Lyle’s story that I don’t think we are getting yet so I am interested in finding out what that is. Everyone deserves to not have to lie about who they are – I hope he realizes that.

This book was great. A nine-tailed fox named Huli has lived through so much pain. He didn’t see himself as very important. Xiao is a healer and just had his world ripped out from him, when he comes home and finds his family murdered. He is always quiet unless he needs to be heard. He wants to revenge his family and doesn’t let anything or anyone get in his way of doing that, until he meets Huli. Once they finally tell each other how they feel, it is a great romance between the two.

Aliens on EarthAliens on Earth by Mandy Melanson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Quite the interesting anthology of romantic stories of aliens and humans in romance here on earth. I read Alice’s Illusions by Maya Banks and The Alien & The Crime Boss by Naomi Valkyrie.

Alice’s Illusions is like a psychotic stalker/thriller. I wished there was a little more alien to the story then just haunted stalker feel. Overall, it’s a good thriller story that you might want to have a light on while you read because it’s a little spooky with your romance. Alice ind Hal feel like a bad trip from the rabbit hole. Try out the story anyway because Alice is full of surprises and she shows them as the story goes on.

The Alien & Crime Boss was a surprising story. A M/M romance that has the alien busting out his warrior to protect the crime boss. Can’t give away to much but it’s a story full of drama, adventure and some out-of-this world romance.. Watching this story develop gave insight to seeing two new cultures come together. It was a good story.

The colourful pictures will delight young readers as they follow along with Jacqueline and learn about the beans and how to help everyone in need.
Another magical twisty fairy tale from Lois is just what you need for a birthday, special occasion or just because.

Filled with action, excitement, adventure and, of course, romance, these books will take readers on an out-of-this-world journey. With compelling drama and edge-of-your-seat suspense, you won’t want to put these riveting romances down.

There are many, many great stories but I am only going to review a couple.
Naomi Valkyries The Alien & The Crime Boss is a MM alien mafia romance tale. – Leilphun is alone and on the run and walking into a brand-new world was safer than staying. Although Earth welcome wagon is not what he expected. Will his rescuer be his ruin or his salvation?

Kasper wants to take over and watching the war means he is on track he just must wait it out. What he didn’t count on was the man he found in the ravine. What he didn’t know was his actions had changed his life.
Well worth the read.

Tori Kelletts The Chosen – I have fallen in love with the characters in this book. Mia Knew what her life was meant to be but she had no hope against some of the women chosen. One foiled assassination attempt and her life has forever changed.

I enjoyed Tori’s book and am now off to read more of her work. I certainly hope there is more of these wonderful characters in future books.

Small Fry by Stephenie Wilson Peterson

Small Fry is a children’s chapter book aimed for middle school aged children between eight to twelve years old. I started to read to my five year old and decided to see what it’s about first then read to him. This author has a way of grabbing your attention and will keep you turning the pages till the end. Her characters are relatable and fully developed. Some of them made me sad and others were simply not nice. There is a very important message in this book and I think every middle school aged kid should read it. Let’s face it kids are mean and bullying is not ok. Silas is in sixth-grade and he is shorter than everyone else in sixth grade by a lot. He has a medical issue that’s makes it hard for him to grow. Good thing he meets some new friends who don’t care about his size and silas bonds with them in band practice and then there’s big bully chad. He decides to make them his new target. Silas over hears chad is running for class president so he decides to run as well to stand up to chad . What happens when a disaster strikes? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next.
