The Kissing Bough (Forbidden Loves) by Madelynne Ellis – Review by Michelle Mulvey

The Kissing Bough (Forbidden Loves, #1)The Kissing Bough by Madelynne Ellis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a historical romance where Viola Marsh is shamed by all. Four years ago she was found in a closet with two men and since then everyone has shamed her. Her family doesn’t treat her well and neither does anyone in the village. Her Aunt Clara is just about the only Person believes her honesty but is that enough?
One cold night she goes to the Kissing Bough even though everyone thinks it is pointless. Viola dresses warm and heads out with her brother Tom who is so mean to her. She doesn’t care though, the thought of a prospect, she heads out the door and stands under the kissing bough for hours nearly freezing to death.
Not only one man but who men approach her. It seems to good to be true. Maybe it is. Everyone thinks she has been with two men at once before so she is considered damaged goods. Percy Gilling and Lord Ricborough have a proposition for Viola. Will she accept their proposition or will she decide tell them the truth and decide it is to much for her. I thought the book was well written and had good characters even though, every member of Viola’s family is mean and rude aside from sweet Aunt Clara.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thought this book was written well. The characters were likable. There’s not much to write without giving away the book. The two main characters meet in a bar one night and decide to spend an amazing night together only to come face to face the next day. What happens when he realizes who she is and that she is totally off limits.

Holiday Terminal (Warren Family Holidays) by Gwyn McNamee & Christy Anderson – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Holiday TerminalHoliday Terminal by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holiday Terminal was such a great 5 star read. Just what I needed in my life right now. This second chance romance had everything I always want to see in a book. Artemis Warren and Penelope Barnes met one summer on the beach in Cape Harmony. Artemis was vacationing with his rich high profile family and of course they didn’t want their oldest son involved with a local girl. Artie and Penelope fell in love that summer.
Unfortunately Artie left at the end of the summer and him and Penelope never spoke after that. Now 6 years later they are both flying to their respective homes but both planes need to make an emergency landing because of a really bad snow storm with whiteout conditions.
What are the odds that these two long lost lovers have to land at the same airport, on the same day, at the same time ? It must’ve been fate.
What will happen when these two come face to face? Penelope has feared this moment and now she has no choice but to face it head on and tell him the truth. She really doesn’t have to tell him because he can see it with his own eyes. I absolutely loved this book and wish there were more just like this one.

Secure Boxed Set: Chase Security Series Books 1-3 by R.L. Dunn – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Secure Boxed Set (Chase Security #1-3)Secure Boxed Set by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Secure Box set is made up of 3 books. All of which are very easy to read. Who doesn’t love books with strong alpha men, action, romance, and excitement. The books definitely will not bore anyone.
I enjoyed reading these books and found the characters lovable. The author did a great job with the plot of all 3 books to keep the reader entertained and interested in what will happen next. I found myself looking at the clock thinking I need to go to get to sleep but let me just read one more chapter first.

Unwrapped by Evelyn Sola – Review by Michelle Mulvey

UnwrappedUnwrapped by Evelyn Sola
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Unwrapped is the first book I’ve read by this author. I thought the book was well written and I mostly did like the characters.

Nick is a bit arrogant and it took me a bit to like him. He’s like the guy you love to hate in a good romance book haha
With that being said, everyone has their reasons for being the way they are.

Nick is a temporary boss at his Uncle’s company and the first day he gets into the office, things don’t go so well and not to many people like him. He’s nothing like his sweet, friendly, well liked uncle.
Fast forward to the holiday party and Nick spots a girl he cannot keep his eyes off of. Only
Problem is her mom literally hates Nick. Miranda has heard horror stories at the dinner table every night for the past 2 months or so. Will Miranda throw caution to the wind and end up spending time with Nick or will she keep her distance? Read the book to find out. Looking forward to more by this author.

Murder Makes Waves (Jack and Frances mysteries Book 3) by Carmen Radtke – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Murder Makes Waves (Jack and Frances mysteries, #3)Murder Makes Waves by Carmen Radtke
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Murder makes waves is book 3 of a series. I’m guessing you do not have to read the books in order because I haven’t read any others in the series and I didn’t feel lost. This was a good mystery book with great character and a good storyline. My favorite character of course is Uncle Sal. I feel like he made the book. I’m not a big mystery reader but I did enjoy reading the book. The author did a great job describing 1931. I would definitely recommend this read for the mystery lovers out there.

A Merry Texan Christmas (The Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Book 3) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Michelle Mulvey

A Merry Texan Christmas (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge, #3)A Merry Texan Christmas by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A Merry Texan Christmas was a great read from the very beginning. Maggie Watson also known as Miss. Christmas will have her work cut out for her this year when she wakes up and sees a crowd gathering around a book store. When she sees the window that was decorated beautifully she is beside herself. Trey Prentice Is a retired baseball player who has moved back to town and now owns the local used bookstore. Not only does he own the bookstore but he can create an amazing Christmas display. Will the towns shop owners now want Trey to decorate their windows?
Trey and Maggie were both attracted to each other but will Maggie ever give Trey a chance? This book had some flirting, some banter and some romance. This was a perfect holiday read to get you in the spirit. You definitely won’t want to miss out on this one.

Big City Heat: A High-Rise Romance Anthology (A Steamy Contemporary Romance Box Set) – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Big City Heat: A High-Rise Romance AnthologyBig City Heat: A High-Rise Romance Anthology by Hazel Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great Anthology but everyone has their favorites. Mine was none other then the amazing Phoebe Alexander with A Hole. This read was so cute, funny and swoon worthy. A Hole
Is about a comedian named Ace Bennett who has a crush on Ella Craig who is bank teller for a bank which happens to be on the same building as his apartment. He makes excuses to go into the bank and Ella knows it. Finally one day Ace gets up the nerve to ask her out but she turns him down. He then asks her to come to his comedy show and there is a bet made. Ella goes to the comedy show with an opinion about Ace she had gotten from her friends. She has a plan in place. She just wants to find out if he’s as good of a kisser and she is told. Sometimes you can’t believe everything you hear. Sometimes things don’t happen the way you think they do. What will happen with Ace and Ella. Is he really the A Hole she was warned he is?
Such a great story. Great main characters and of course the supporting actors were awesome too. I hope there are more reads coming with the rest of the characters.

Playing Series 3 Book Set by Stephanie Queen – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Playing Series 3 Book SetPlaying Series 3 Book Set by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The playing Series boxset by Stephanie Queen was a great series. I have read a few of this authors books in the past and I am familiar with her writing style. These books were a little different from what I have read by her previously. This really was the perfect set of books to read. It’s starting to get cold out so I found myself snuggled up with my puppies at night, a cup of coffee in hand and got lost in this series. Who doesn’t likes sports romance books or 2nd Chance Romance reads? It’s hard to pick a favorite. You will have to read them yourself and pick one of your own. I enjoyed all 3.

Playing for the money was about bad boy Hunter getting moved to a new team. He needs to keep himself on the right track and prove himself but what can he do when the woman he is supposed to work along side is so attractive. He finds it hard to keep his distance as she does as well. The icing on the cake is, she isn’t just any woman…she’s the coaches daughter!!! Loved the character and Loved reading this one!!

Playing for love was another great read. These two characters are not new friends. They do know each other from sometime ago. The time for them just wasn’t right. Now things may be different. This was a sweet read. I liked the characters. What will happen now that Gabe and Mia are spending some time together?? Read the book and find out.

Playing for keeps has a little bit of a different feel for me. I enjoyed reading the book but, sometimes certain books hit you differently. This happens to be one of them. The main characters in this book are Tate and Chloe. These two have an attraction to each other even if they don’t want to. What happens when their friends get involved?

I can’t wait to read more books by this author. These books were all amazing.

Secure Heart (Chase Security Series #3) by R.L. Dunn – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Secure Heart (Chase Security Series Book 3)Secure Heart by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love The Chase Security Series. Secure Heart is Book 3 in the series. All of the books are great and detailed. The author did a great job giving the readers what they like.
Julian and Holly are both great characters. There’s other characters in the book from previous books but this one focuses on these main characters. My favorite is Sadie though. Holly is an up and coming singer who ends up needing a great security team to help keep herself and her daughter Sadie safe. Who else is there aside from the Chase team! They are the best. Julian and Holly begin to get close but, both have a terrible past. Will they be able to let each other in or will they just end up with a professional relationship? When Holly and Julian both have people after them, what can they do? Is it the same person? Will they be able to get through these attacks in one piece? There’s a lot of action in this book and some suspense. You definitely don’t want to miss out on this book. I would also recommend reading the others in the series. You will not be disappointed.

THE PATIENCE OF KARMA (A Madeline Dawkins Mystery #5) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Michelle Mulvey

The Patience of KarmaThe Patience of Karma by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Patience of Karma is book 5 in the series. This book can be read as a stand alone however it’s always good to have read the previous books to understand the level of relationships and what was conjured up to get them where they are today. I have read the previous books. Mike and Madeline have a long history. Here they are back at it again doing what they love. I always wonder if the books would keep my attention better if it was one case at a time. I enjoyed reading the book but it did take me a while to finish. This duo has 2 cases which are keeping them busy. A missing nephew who is thought to have possibly passed away but there’s reason to believe he’s still alive. He’s needed for a very important reason involving his sister who desperately needs him. The other case is a high profile person who believes his wife is cheating. Should be a very easy cut and dry case. With any good book there’s always surprise bumps in the road to keep us entertained. I love the relationship between the characters and always wonder what they will be up to next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Accepted by Lisa Wood is book 2 in the Rhodes Family Series. Book 1 and 2 kind of
take place at the same time. While reading book 2 which has the main focus on Ava, Hunter and Thomas,
there are some parts about Gabe and Liv in there that was mentioned in book 1. I love having the back story
on the trio. This book was so good and I loved the characters. For a minute there I was like no way, not again!!!
Only to find out it was quite the opposite. I love the character of Ava!
I cannot wait for more of this family series.

Secure Again (Chase Security Series #2) by R.L. Dunn – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Secure Again (Chase Security Series Book 2)Secure Again by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Secure Again was definitely a 5 star read for me. This book had everything one could possibly want in a book. Dr Elizabeth Reed and Martin Bailey are both such strong characters and I love them both. They both have amazing jobs and are both so good at what they do.
Elizabeth Reed works in a hospital and is the best at what she does. I love some of her antics such as hip checking the bed to make the heart jump to show there is a heartbeat.
When Elizabeth decided what she wanted to do in life she went all in. She will not save a cop over a prisoner. Everyone gets equal treatment in her care. When she starts noticing things that are not how they should be she asks questions. Such questions could be dangerous for her. Martin and Elizabeth have a history and when they come face to face some feelings come barreling back!
There is so much going on in this book and I’m glad Martin went to Iowa when he did. Someone is out to get Elizabeth, will he be able to save her and her career? There were lots of characters….so many were evil some were good, it was hard to keep them straight but I did. This was a great read and I strongly recommend it to everyone.

Shattered: Rhodes Family Book 1 by Lisa Wood – Review by Michelle Mulvey

ShatteredShattered by Lisa Wood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shattered is probably one of my favorite books I’ve read in the last few months. I absolutely love when a guy is so crazy over a girl in a book and it is so out of character for them.
This book gave the reader everything they could ever want. There was the the playboy who can have any girl he wants, then there’s initial attraction with someone there shouldn’t be.
I loved the characters and the storyline had me hooked from the very beginning.
Everyone has secrets. Olivia has had a rough time leading up to her arrival in NYC. Her and Gabe meet at an interview for a job where he will essentially be her boss. He has a few secrets that everyone tells him to tell Olivia about but ofcourse he doesn’t. What will happen when the truth comes out. Will she be able to forgive me? Will he even have a chance to tell her why he did what he did? Such a great read. Loved it and cannot wait for more!

The Walls Between Us: A Borderland Love Story by Kate McGahan – Review by Michelle Mulvey

The Walls Between Us: A Borderland Love StoryThe Walls Between Us: A Borderland Love Story by Kate McGahan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Walls Between Us by Kate McGahan was a well written book. This is the first book I have read by this author. I wasn’t really sure what I was getting myself into when I started reading the book. It definitely wasn’t something I’ve read previously. There were a lot of real issues going on in the book. Things we go through on a daily basis. Some people choose not to talk about these things because it turns into a political thing but the struggle is real.
I liked most of the characters. I was left with a lot of questions. The love story between Benito and Sarah had me asking why…but as they stated many times in the book they felt they were soulmates. I feel the book was hard to finish for me because I wasn’t interested in the subject however, I cannot give a bad review because of my preferences. I feel the author did a great job with writing and explaining the story!

Rebecca Steele Finding the Dream is book 2 in the series. I did not read book 1 but, that didn’t really affect my review. However, I may have liked the book more if I read book 1! I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were likable which makes it that much easier to read and enjoy a book. This was a quick sweet read about the life of Becky and some love along the way. I really liked reading about Chance and Becky. Every good book has some suspense and some twists to keep you entertained. I found myself trying to put the book down but saying, one more chapter first. You definitely don’t want to miss out on this book.

St. Nick’s Christmas Wish (Holiday Hunks Book 7 – Hot Hunks-Steamy Romance Collection Book) by Tamara Ferguson – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Holiday Hunks-St. Nick's Christmas Wish (Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection Book 7)Holiday Hunks-St. Nick’s Christmas Wish by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tamara Ferguson has always been one of my “go-to” authors. I have loved every book she has written and this book included. This book is about a broken hearted stock broker named Nick Hanover. His childhood wasn’t one some of the typical teenage boys he knew had. His parents hardly ever speak and never came to any of his games. Mike took him under his wing being 2 years older and they built a great friendship. That’s when Nick realized there were secrets in his family.
When Nick turned 18 his dad was a lot more open about things and told Nick things no one else knew. At 18 years old Nick will have a lot on his plate.
About 12 years later, Nick is nursing a broken heart and decides to go vacation on Bali with Jack and they stay at with their childhood friend Rand. When they are out they meet 3 women Ciara, Janelle and Emma. Nick and Emma immediately have chemistry but of course they gets messed up somehow but not before they share a heated kiss that neither can forget when vacation ends. Emma and Nick end up running into each other again in Crystal Rock. Everything seems to be going well for them until Mick gets that phone all about his half brother. Will Nick be able to tell Emma all the secrets and still be happy or will the secrets tear them apart. This book has a lot going on but it was a really good book and keeps you interested from the very beginning.

The Matchmaker and The Marine: A Second Chance Small-Town RomanceThe Matchmaker and The Marine: A Second Chance Small-Town Romance by Lucinda Race
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The matchmaker and the marine was a great book that was well written with great characters.
The two main characters have their own issues.
Melinda moved to Chester to start a new life after losing her husband and facing memories everywhere in her home. It was to much for her to handle. In Chester she has become a very successful matchmaker who gets referral and referral from the many HEA’s she has played a part in creating.
Adam is in Chester staying with a friend who is like a brother. They have been best friends for many years. Adam is at a wedding when he runs into Melinda. They start to talk about how they both know the couple and become quick friends. Adam hires Melinda to be his matchmaker but things don’t go very smooth for him. He’s ex military with many emotional and some physical scars. Adam not only hires Melinda but she also hires him to do some work in her yard. The chemistry is amazing between these two main characters throughout the book but is it enough? What happens when a secret is exposed that isn’t ready to be told?
I thought this was a really great book and look forward to many more from this author. This is definitely a book you do not want to miss out on!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

New Jerk In Town by Sylvie Stewart was a great read. I love the chemistry between the two main characters Jill and Milo. They had a friendship 12 years ago and haven’t seen each other since that crazy summer. Now when Jills car breaks down as she’s passing thru, the last person she expects to see is Milo. Of course they fight when they first meet but have no choice but to speak to each when they need to. This book takes you on a roller coaster. I like how the author gives the reader the backstory to help us understand why Milo and Jill are the way they are towards each other. I really loved reading this book and have quickly become a fan of this author in the few books I have gotten to read so far!

Dares & Dice (Spicetopia Book 5)Dares & Dice by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am a huge fan of this series. Every time a new book comes out I lounge on the couch and can usually finish it in a day or two. Dares & Dice was no different. Phoebe Alexander hit the jackpot when she started this series. I absolutely love it. Dares & Dice is book # 5 and each book is better then the last!

This book is about two sets of people. Makenna is there with her maid of honor and 3 bridesmaids while Ty is there with his best man and 3 groomsmen. What are the odds they will break up into teams for a scavenger hunt? Well they do and they decide 5 groups of 2 would make up the teams. I love the 2 main characters Makenna and Ty. They are both set to get married in the next few weeks but, is it really what they want? Ty has some secrets about who he really is and it will come out eventually. I thought Ty and Makenna were both 2 strong characters. Makenna is such a good girl and her fiancé has no idea how good she really is.
Makenna and Ty get very close during the hunt but then it is cut short and they don’t get to say goodbye. Will they have another chance meeting? I was appalled by what Makenna finds out when she gets back from her honeymoon. This was such a great read and an awesome addition to the series. I can’t wait to see if there are any more books. Dares & Dice can be read as a stand-alone.

Bottomed Out by Brooke May is such a great read. I enjoyed this book from the first page. I loved how strong of a character Jax is. He definitely defied the odds. He may not have his dream career but he has a great job and is great at it. His friends cheered him on every step of the way.
When every thought he couldn’t do it, he did it and did it well.

He was always a stud but now, his luck has changed. When he meets Lennox, his luck changes. Jax and Lennox have chemistry right away. The only issue is her brother!!! He tries everything. He’s a very overprotective brother but, is Jax willing to give up and let him win?
I loved the characters in this book and I loved the storyline.
This was a great feel good read to show the average person , no matter what happens, you can always overcome just about anything.

While he is there, he decides to meet up with a friend who currently works with a woman he spent a summer with about 20 years ago. She was always the one who got away and she felt the same about him. I absolutely love second chance romance books and this one was great!
Silas doesn’t know if she will even see him. When they meet up, the chemistry is still there. They both have feelings for each other even though there are secrets….soooo many secrets! What will happen when all the secrets have been exposed. Will they be able to see past them and move on once they have the answers? I love the characters in the book! Cannot wait for more from this author.

Perfect by Tricia Copeland was a different kind of book then I am used to. It was kind of weird reading about her with different men and then the story ends. I wasn’t really expecting that even though the description said she takes different paths to find the perfect man.
I thought the book was well written. I feel like I get into a part and then pow! On to another. Not sure how I feel about that. LoL I did enjoy the book but, the ending??? Come on now! I have a feeling, I know who she ends up with from a few lines in the last few pages “ rain or shine” and his sparkling eyes. But then, what about “ from one end of the earth to the other” I dunno. I wasn’t really into how the book ended. I was rooting for Chase or Liam but, who know who it was. I wish the author gave us a bit more at the end.

I really enjoyed reading this book and it kept me glued to my kindle from chapter 1. This book had everything one could want in a book. The chemistry between Nathan and Bryer was ridiculously hot. The book had lots of drama and suspense. There really is a lot going on in the book and you can miss some vital info if you don’t pay attention. I really like the 2 main characters but didn’t love the supporting character. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series

Satan’s Devils are back again and better then ever. Hawk and Olivia have known each other since they were babies. They were close then became involved. There was distance and now they are together. I love the characters in this story. I love reading about them. The book kept me entertained and found myself reading one more chapter to see what happens.
It’s an emotionally challenging read. A lot happens and you will find yourself dying to see what will happen next.
I thought this book was a great read and look forward to more in this series. You definitely want to read this and once you do, I think you will enjoy this book as much as I did. What will happen when Hawk makes a big decision? Will Hawk and Liv be able to be happy or will something get in the way? Such a great read!

This book was a 5 plus read and had me hooked from the very beginning. I found myself staying up late at night to get a few more pages in. Blair is one of the main characters and she has a special love / hate relationship with her older brothers best friend Ashton. They have known each other for over a decade. Blair has been hiding her feelings for Ashton for years and Ashton has been hiding his feelings for her for years also. Is it worth ruining a relationship with his best friend ? What will happen when Blair goes to college? There were to many things to worry about so everyone kept their crushes hidden well until one night at a beach party.
A lot happens at the beach party and something’s won’t be easy to forget.
I really loved this book and cannot wait for more. These characters were all Loveable and the story was completely relatable. You definitely won’t be disappointed when you read this book.

Romance in Rehoboth Boxed Set (Books 4-6): A Small Town Romantic Comedy Series by K.L. Montgomery – Review by Michelle Mulvey

Romance in Rehoboth boxed set book 4-6 was a great collection of books you don’t want to
miss out on. These books all focus on different couples and every reader gets to decide which couple is their favorite or which book is your favorite. I really enjoyed this set of books.
There was the romance and the teasing fun that kept me going in these books.
My favorite had to be Chris and Brynne. I think they are one of my top 5 favorites.
The characters are ones you can relate to and will find yourself loving throughout the books. The author did a great
job as always giving the readers characters we can love.
