I had several emotional moments reading this book. I’m a HUGE dog lover and to read what these poor dogs went through at the hands of a hoarder just about killed me emotionally. Twilight put Forks on the map for most but this story has left a whole different feeling for me.

How could the town people not see what this man was doing? How could they protect him?

Daisy’s journey wasn’t easy and my heart really went out to her and the other fur babies that suffered, to see her finally get her HEA was great. I also liked how the author gave us an update on where some of the other rescues went. I will warn you that pictures and some things mentioned may be hard for some to see/read, I was in tears. This also opens your eyes to making sure you know just where your donations go and what rescue groups you support. Proceeds from this book are going to the OAS rescues which is great.

Office MistakesOffice Mistakes by Beth Hale
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Office Mistakes by Beth Hale was a great 5 star read.
This was a fun quick read.

Audra decides to spike the punch at her work party to liven things up. She ends up taking Charlie home since he drank a little too much punch. Of course these two have had some chemistry between them but Audra refuses to make another Office Mistake.

Things take a pretty hot and steamy twist once they get to Charlie’s house. Will Audra finally give in to her feelings for Charlie? Or will she let the past interfere?

Overall this was a fun office romance story. I really enjoyed both characters and Charlie was so sweet and understanding. There are a couple of twists that add a good element to the story as well. If you’re looking for a quick romance read with loveable characters this is the read for you.
I look forward to reading more from this author, 1-click and get started today.

Jordan's Justice: A New Adult Sport Romance (Tessa and Jordan Book 2)Jordan’s Justice: A New Adult Sport Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jordan’s Justice: A New Adult Sport Romance (Tessa and Jordan Book 2) by T. Christensen was a great 5 star read. I was so excited to get the next book in the series, I made the mistake of starting the book when I went to bed, I was up until 4am because I couldn’t put it down.

Tessa has moved on with her life and is doing the best she can. When she comes face-to-face with Jordan at an event she is shocked and after their encounter she runs home. When he makes an unexpected appearance at her door she agrees to meet him and talk. There is another twist when she is at work and sees him walking in with her boss, that’s when things hit the fan and he learns the truth.

Needless to say there is so much going on that my head was spinning. My heart broke for Tessa with all that she was put through and how she was treated. I have to say I really really did not like Jordan for most of the book and don’t get me started on his mother. There are so many ugly cry moments in this book so keep the Kleenex handy. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. If you’re looking for an emotional read that pulls you right in this is the book and series for you. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

Corporate ChristmasCorporate Christmas by Bernadette Marie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Corporate Christmas by Bernadette Marie was a good 4 star read.

Chloe is a hard worker, so much so that she missed Thanksgiving with her family. She is working towards a promotion that she should have in the bag. When she meets Jason he has come into the office to speak with her boss’s son.

Jason gets the impression that Chloe is surprised to find out who he is. He doesn’t feel right about the situation and soon finds out that he had taken the job she was working towards. When he finds out the truth about Chloe’s departure from the company he is even more upset.

When Jason shows up in Aubrey Heights, Chloe is confused as to why he’s there. Will he be able to convince Chloe to work with him? Will these two give into their attraction and get a HEA?

Overall I really enjoyed this book. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. I didn’t care too much for the boss’s son, and hated what he had done to Chloe. I really liked Chloe, she is a hard working woman with a great personality. Jason grew on me as well, the chemistry between them was great. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. I look forward to reading more from her. 1-click and get started today on this great holiday read.

Fighting for Us (Love is Worth Fighting For #1)Fighting for Us by Bella Emy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fighting for Us (Love is Worth Fighting For #1) by Bella Emy was a great 5 star read.
I was pulled right in and didn’t want to stop until I was done.

What Lorenzo went through broke my heart for him and his child. He has no interest in seeing anyone and is focused on raising his daughter. He has help from his parents and siblings.
Carissa is also mending a broken heart and has some pretty big walls built up.

While out with some friends Carissa and Lorenzo see each other, and they can’t stop thinking about each other. Fate steps in and these two run into each other again a couple of different times. One of the nights was a little scary for Carissa due to her ex getting handsy and aggressive but luckily Lorenzo showed up at the right time. They end up exchanging numbers and from here things get even better.

These two start to let down their walls and start dating. We get a big twist that sends Carissa running, can they get past the issue at hand and have a HEA?

Overall I really enjoyed this book. I loved all of the secondary characters. I have to say that I was a little confused at why Carissa pushed him away, but that could just be me. The connection these two had was off the charts hot, we get some steamy moments from them. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I look forward to reading more from this series and author. 1-click and get started today.

Revel (The Howl Series, #1) by Alden Elway was a good 4 star read.
It took me a bit to get pulled fully into the story but once I got past a certain point I couldn’t put it down.

Revel is a female pack member who is trying to find herself. She breaks one of the biggest cardinal rules of the pack, don’t be seen by humans. When she goes to tell her brother what happened, she sees the man walking out with her brother. The man happens to be a conservation officer. There is something about him that pulls Revel in, but another rule is the wolves can’t have a human for a mate. But she can’t help herself, she starts to see him on the sly.

Things take another twist and the pack members find body parts. It appears that the attacks may be animal related. What will happen when the pack finds out the truth? What will happen with Jamie?

Overall this was a great thrilling read. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I really liked Revel, I felt bad for her at times because all she wanted was to be loved and not controlled by her family. If you like this paranormal romance you will enjoy this one. 1-click and get started today.
