Remember My Name (Remember My Name Series Book 1) by Laurencia Hoffman – Review by Heather Lovelace

Remember My NameRemember My Name by Laurencia Hoffman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This complex story was what I expected and not all at the same time. The author does a fine job weaving a layered story that is chock full of emotion and speculation. I expected to find a gripping story but wasn’t as prepared for the story to sit in, what I found to be, a prolonged sad place. This didn’t detract from the story, rather leant to that emotion’s authenticity. However it is something to be aware of if the reader struggles with that emotion themselves. An interesting read and one that left me pondering where the series might go next.

Wow this was a story I wasn’t expecting but I really enjoyed. It was an emotional roller coaster.

Shane has suffered in his life, from abuse at the hands of his father to the heartbreak of his first love and other losses and heartbreak in between. All this has turned Shane into a cold, hard person who is happier pushing people away than confiding in them.

When he bumps into his first love Callen again they want to rekindle their failed relationship but with Shane holding so many secrets and being so hard to get close to will Callen be able to break down his walls and boundaries or will the constant coldness end up pushing Callen away for good.

Its a strong emotional story and shows that secrets and heartbreak can cause a person to change. It also shows that sometimes keeping secrets isn’t the right way to deal with things.

Remember My Name (Remember My Name Series Book 1) by Laurencia Hoffman is a story about secrets from the past that affect the here and now and is a little dark and very emotional read. It is a MM romance that is full of angst which makes for a tense and compelling read. The characters are complex and the story flowed nicely. I found myself immersed in this story and taken in with the twists and turns as we search to unravel the secrets from the past. But they may just get more than they bargained for.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked up Remember My Name by Laurencia Hoffman, but I knew I wanted to read it after seeing the cover and a few teasers. This is a new author to me but I will be back to see what else she has available in the very near future. This book really took me on a roller coaster ride of emotions as I read the story of Shane Coulter. He is dealing with a lot right now and has some secrets that have shaped him into who he is today. The journey that he takes with his first love Callan is something that will stick with you long after reading. I will say this being a MM romance is usually a genre that I tend to critique harder because I love a good solid read with MM romance, it just seems to be something that can turn gimmicky at times. I didn’t have any issue with this in Remember My Name. It read very poignantly that this is a topic dear to the author and she put her all into writing a realistic and believable read. I was enthralled from the very first page until the last and I am sure anyone else who is a fan of MM romance will love it just as much as I did.

Remember My Name by Laurencia Hoffman is the first book in the Remember My Name series. This is a dark and emotional story that really draws you in. What I got when I started reading this book is not what I expected when I first picked it up. I expected the story to be a little dark and to really take me on a journey however I didn’t expect it to be so full of emotions. I was very pleasantly surprised by this.
The story has been built up well from the beginning. It has a great pace to it that keeps you, as the reader, engaged in what is happening. It was easy to imagine the story as the author does a great job of making you feel like you are right in the story with the characters.
This is the first book that I have read by this author and it has definitely caught my attention. I am looking forward to reading more in the future.

Remember My Name is the first book in the Remember My Name Series by Laurencia Hoffman. It is an emotionally charged and gripping MM romance. It is a little dark and sad in places, and I found my emotions were all over the place while reading some scenes.
This is the first book of Luciana Hoffman’s that I have read, and I have to admit that she won me over with her intense story.
Shane Coulter has been hiding some dark and disturbing secrets behind a impudent and prickly attitude. The only person who took the time to look past his protective tough guy camouflage is Callan Reid, Shane’s first love. Callan is certain that there is something truly shocking to blame for Shane to be the way he is. And Callan is determined to uncover the truth. But as Shane starts digging for answers, danger comes calling. There are some that would prefer that the truth never be revealed- and are willing to kill to keep the truth from emerging.
Past meets present in a chilling story of secrets and love.
Intriguing reading!

Thank you, Laurencia Hoffman!

The story Remember My Name (Remember My Name Series Book 1) by Laurencia Hoffman is a Romantic Suspense book. It is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning. The main characters in the story are Shane Coulter and Callan Reid. Shane is a character that I could empathize with. He hides his true self and the darkness by pushing everyone that he loves and that loves him away. He is in such pain that it hurt my heart to read about how he sees and feels about himself. Callan is a man that wants to help Shane and refuses to leave even when Shane tells him to go. He is a kind soul who doesn’t understand why Shane acts the way that he does. This is an emotional story and I found my emotions going up and down the enter time I was reading it. The book has heartbreaking moments. It also gives you a front seat view of Shane’s behavior and how he feels about himself. Don’t miss out on a story that includes romance, suspense, and mysterious happenings. I would highly recommend reading it.

This was a MM romance and thriller, and I found Shane and Callan to be strong characters that really held the story together. Shane Coulter is hiding some dark and twisted secrets and the only person who ever saw beyond his smart mouth and abrasive attitude to the vulnerability beneath was Callan Reid, his first love. Callan is convinced that Shane’s tough image is just that, and believing that he has suffered badly in his past Callan wants to uncover the truth. However Shane would rather the past stayed in the past and that his secrets remain secrets. In digging up Shane’s past Callan unwittingly brings danger into both their lives as there are people who are willing to kill to prevent Shane’s truths coming out.
This was a story about secrets and how the past affects the present and future, but it was also about first love. Shane and Callan were great characters as they were likeable and relatable but also realistic with their flaws. The storyline flowed well and the plot had enough drama and twists in it that it kept me gripped from beginning to end. The author really made me feel immersed in Shane and Callan’s story and I found myself thinking about the characters long after I had finished the book.

I had no problems connecting with the characters as they brought on the twists and turns. They made the story easy to read and enjoyable. This is a story about hidden secrets from the past and those who will stop at nothing to prevent them from getting out. There are consequences but will they turn deadly? Are some things better off left in the past? Callan and Shane are great characters that made the story believable. They are strong and supportive and really made the story for me. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a juicy fantasy thriller if I’ve ever read one and I’ve been excited to read it. I found this book to be entertaining, witty and a page-turner.
With a serial killer on the run, a perplexed enigma about Aiden’s former life, Aiden and Fouchard must walk on eggshells through two different worlds between magic and myth where they’re not in power or seeking victory.
Aiden Mercer has a beautiful life on the beach where he relaxes for a living especially after a life as a former respected detective. In the magical community, everybody is turning to him to solve the case of the serial killer on the loose to which he’d have to put his relaxation on hold again.
Naël is an argumentative merman raising and keeping his sister safe from harm. As a suspect of these murders, he seeks out Aiden’s help to prove his innocence. Naël knows Aiden will be unstoppable and hardworking to prove his innocence.
Naël and Aiden’s chemistry is secure and impassive but Naël is persistent while Aiden builds walls to keep him out. Their banter makes them vulnerable for a killer out to get them both.

I really like this author so I picked this book to read without reading the blurb, now I am not a fan of m/m books so I wasn’t sure I was going to like the story but I actually really did. I skipped over some of the parts but it didn’t make any difference to my enjoyment of the book. The authors writing as usual is magical and mysterious, she uses wonderful and vivid detail that helps you to imagine what you are reading. There was a good amount of romance and some suspense which really added to the story. I thought the pace and flow as good and the characters were really well developed.
A really good read and one that I would highly recommend!

Do you love a really well written story with a serial killer, murder, danger, mystery, the paranormal- as well as a sexy MM romance? Well that’s what you will find between the covers of this sublime story. Natalina Reis delivers yet another wonderful book- and having read all her works to date, I can honestly say that this is one of my favourites of hers, so far.
Aiden and Nael are such great characters- their chemistry is intense, adding an extra element of spice t the story. With Aiden’s past and the fact that Nael is a merman grabbed my attention right from the get-go. Then throw in the serial killer aspect, with an intriguing storyline, some suspense, danger, and dramatic developments- and I was hooked! I read this story in one sitting as I couldn’t put it down till I’d read every last word.
Looking forward to more from Ms. Reis!

Thank you, Natalina Reis!

I have yet to find a novel by Natalina Reis that I didn’t absolutely love and want to devour in one sitting, and Of Magic & Scales is no exception to the rule. I seriously love the way that Natalina can weave a tale full of magic and fable and make you feel as if you know these characters personally and are very much real. She makes me believe in the magic and I love the feelings I experience as I read her work! This is a MM romance so if that isn’t your thing don’t read but I bet it would make you a believer in the genre!

Of Magic & Scales is full of magic and adventure, laced with suspense and romance to break up the darkness of it all. I never can get enough of the characters that Reis creates but Aiden and Nael have a special spot in my heart for them and I am so hooked on their story. I love how the mystery is set up and can only hope that this means we will not only get more of this fabulous storyline but more of these characters that have sucked me in completely! I know I will be first in line to get my hands on the next one!

Natalina Reis has caught my attention with the title of this book, Of Magic and Scales. Her stories always have a thought and preparation to deliver the right amount of details to think you know what is coming ahead. Then BAM! It goes in a totally different direction. This story is no different. Aiden was a respected detective in DC and now he is just trying to take it easy. There is a magical community that is looking for him, not to mention there is a killer on the loose. There is one DNA that is at the murders and it is no other than Merman Naël Fouchard. Can Aiden and Naël team up and find the murderer? Will there be some romance between them? I highly recommend reading this book to see what happens.

Of Magic and Scales is a great M/M fantasy, romantic thriller by Natalina Reis that had me captivated from the very beginning, right up to the very end. It is my first read by this author and I’m pretty sure it won’t be my last as I enjoyed this book very much.
I do like a good M/M romance but this one is that little bit different in that one of the main characters, Nael, is a merman (or merrow as they prefer to be called). If, like me you are wondering how to pronounce Nael’s name it’s pronounced Nuh/l/ (It was annoying me to the point that I messaged the author to ask!.
Aiden Mercer has been able to see magicals since he can remember and he’s not their biggest fan since he’s had a few unpleasant run in’s with some of them. That all changes when Nael Fourchard enters into his life. Many magicals are being murdered and Nael wants Aiden to help him find out who the killer is. Added to this is the incredible sexual chemistry between the 2 men although Aiden finds Nael very rude and abrupt and doesn’t like him very much.
What follows is a great tale of intrigue and mystery, delving into the world of witches, fairies, trolls and many other magical creatures as Aiden and Nael try to find the killer, putting their lives in great danger on many occasions.
This book has some great secondary characters, in particular Aiden’s assistant at his coffee shop and especially Nael’s younger sister Vee. I absolutely adored Vee. She has absolutely no filter and is hilarious.
This is a great read but has left some questions still to be answered (I’m not going to give any spoilers), so I’m really hoping that there is more to come from these fantastic characters.

Initially I found the writing style a little challenging to get into, however after the first couple of chapters I caught the flow. Of course, then I couldn’t put it down. Of Magic and Scales is a meandering mystery story It takes it’s time and introduces several magical creatures along the way. Aiden trying to come to terms with himself added dimension to the story. And, Naël is someone you kind of love to hate. He is irritating and rude, but he also cares about Aiden in his own way. I could really identify with Aiden’s desire to just live a low-key life without drama. Unfortunately, as in real life, you don’t always get what you wish for.
Overall, I really enjoyed this story. I’m wondering if there will be another book because I would definitely read more!

This is a great story bringing romance, crime, and supernatural all together.

Aiden seems like a normal person running a coffee shop in Portugal. However things arent always what they seem. Aiden has a gift/curse which means he can tell supernatural beings apart from humans. This has gotten him into trouble in the past so he stays away from any magical beings.

That is until a witch finds him and begs for his help. There is someone who is out there killing magical beings and she needs his help to find out who it is. Only clue is there is evidence its a Merman.

An arrival of a Mr Fouchard sends Aiden into a spin. There is a huge attraction between them. However Mr Fouchard turns out to be a Merman.

Could he be the murder? Will Aiden be too blinded by his emotions and feelings to find the truth. Will the pair of them get together or will the distraction of feelings cost them their lives.

This was a gripping story from the start .

I really enjoyed the world and characters that Natalina has created. It is a fun and easy read that is well written and interesting. I found myself laughing out loud with this feel good romance.

Aiden thought moving far away he could escape magic and magical creatures but his reputation precedes him and he can’t deny what he has tried to shut out and he soon finds himself tangled up in murder and mayhem.

I enjoyed the journey and look forward to reading more.

I loved reading the story Of Magic and Scales by Natalina Reis. It is a book that I found myself not able to put down until I had finished the last page. It is a story that includes magic, magical creatures, mystery, danger, and romance. I loved reading about the characters of Aiden Mercer and Nael Fouchard. Aiden wants to live his life with no complications. Instead, he finds himself in the search for a killer. The search not only takes him away from the relaxed lifestyle he wants, but it also has him meeting Nael. Someone that he finds extremely attractive. Nael is a merman whose life is about protecting his little sister. He has found himself the prime suspect in the murders that are occurring. He has sought the help of Aiden to help him prove his innocence. The chemistry is strong and undeniable between Nael and Aiden. Even with the verbal back and forth between them they can’t help but feel the pull towards each other. What does the future hold for them? Will the killer be caught? Will Aiden and Nael deny their feelings or will they take a chance with each other? Read this book to find out. I grew to love the characters of Nael and Aiden with each chapter that I read. I couldn’t help but want them to be happy. I enjoyed reading the push and pull that plays out between them. Several other characters interact with Aiden and Nael that are wonderful to read about. This is a story that does have some steamy and romantic moments. The book is written in such a way that I felt like I was right there with the characters. This is a story that is entertaining and grabbed my attention from the very beginning. I would highly recommend reading it.

Of Magic & Scales by Natalina Reis Author
With a serial killer on the loose, the baffling mystery of Aiden’s past, and their tenuous budding romance, Aiden and Fouchard tread through a world of magic and myth on padded shoes, terrified to stir up something neither can control or defeat.
Aiden Mercer’s life now centers around lounging on the sunny beaches of his adopted country with a beer in one hand and a coffee in the other while admiring the local male population. After a rough life as a respected detective in DC, playing it cool shouldn’t be too hard, right? With the magical community on his case and dead bodies piling up around town, the responsibility of finding their killer seems fated to fall on him and deny him of his easy living.
Then there is Naël.
Cantankerous merman Naël Fouchard’s life is focused on bringing up and protecting his little sister. When DNA found at the scene of the murders mark him as the prime suspect, Naël seeks out the help of Aiden, whose reputation as a detective grossly belies his lazy lifestyle and apparent lack of ambition.
The chemistry between the strong, stoic Naël and the easygoing Aiden is undeniable, no matter how many walls Aiden builds.
If this unlikely pair can’t come to terms with their feelings for each other long enough to catch the killer, their emotional turmoil might yet allow the murderer to kill them instead.

This is I am pretty sure my first M/M romance book, it is also the debut novel by Rowan Shaw and is also my first book by this author. Since its my first M/M romance I was not sure what to expect from the book. But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the story content and the writing style of the author. This is the story of Florian and Enzo; both of these men are wanting to have a second chance of being in love. Both these men have been treated in the worst way and when you read their story, I am pretty sure you will be heart broken for them, Read the book and follow their journey to finding that second chance at love, it is truly beautiful.
