Protecting His Heart (Lawson Family, #2)Protecting His Heart by Tracey Cramer-Kelly
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Protecting His Heart is the second novel in the Lawson Family series by Tracey Cramer-Kelly. This is my second novel by this author.

Ian is a police officer is in his small hometown. Because of his abusive childhood, he moves in with his best friend’s family who takes him and they eventually move. Once he is older, he returns to town. He isn’t looking for a relationship but has an attraction to Rachel. The more he sees her, the more tempted he is.

Rachel has issues of her own. The guy she thought she would marry but things aren’t looking good. She wants to be a wife and have a family. Her attraction to Ian, makes her think she should break up with her boyfriend Josh.

If she breaks up with Josh, what then? Will Ian and her be able to have a relationship or will his past taint the relationships and life they could have.

I really loved this story. Its very rare that the female lead is already in a relationship with someone before meeting the male lead. Which was some nice added conflict for the plot.

The characters made you feel for them especially Ian. Reading more about him was so heartbreaking but at the same time I was glad that he was able to move away.

I look forward to another novel.

A Dark Sparrow Box Set - Books 1-3A Dark Sparrow Box Set – Books 1-3 by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Dark Sparrow Box set features the first three books in the Dark Sparrow series by India Kells.

The first novels features three brothers who have secrets and three women who come into their lives.

The brothers are trying to get away from their father but with their life, they never can.

I love the characters and how the men are okay with being alone or suffering from family tragedies until they meet the one that will melt the ice around their heart and show them there is more to life then how they are currently living.

It sounds like there will be three more books and I am excited to meet the other three brothers and see how this series ends.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Friend is the third novel in the What Happens on Campus series by M. L. Sparrow. This is my fourth novel by this author.

Terri is the twin that is proud to be able to take care of herself but her life changes when she gets attacked on campus. She decides to stay home for Spring Break.

Her best friend Jet stays on campus with her to fill her days with fun and to help her heal. For three years, he has paid no interest to her feelings for him. While struggling to be a writer, he starts to see Terri in a new light. Can he convince her his feelings are real?

This is my favorites of the series so far. It was a little hard to read because of the topic and Terri’s attack but I am so grateful that the author including this as part of the plot because it is something that does happen a lot on college grounds and sometimes it feels like it gets swept under the rug with not much being done.

I hope we get more of the series because I love college romances.

I don’t want to give anything away but this was an emotional story that I was not ready for but truly enjoyed. I fell in love with the characters as well as the supporting characters and hope we see them again in their own books.

The emotional roller-coaster ride from the relationship between Jamie and Kira just had me wishing for a happy ending for them and for Jamie to finally move forward in life and be happy. With such a simple plot, the story was more complex and intricate with the characters and their relationships to each other.

I hope there is another book in the series because I would definitely read it.

This was another fast paced novel where I wasn’t sure what was going on and there was so many twists and turns and people in danger and mafia kidnappings, that I had to reread some parts.

This series surprised in some many ways and I am glad that I gave it a try.

They sneak off for more privacy and when a kiss leads to possibly more, Jenny kicks him in the groin and runs out the room, confusing Brian.

With the possibility of mafia, tracking her because of her association, Brian could be way in over his head.

This story really surprised me. I thought I knew how it was going to go but I was so wrong. Jenny is a strong character who is trying to make a name for herself and make her father proud but there are things about her past that she is start healing and turns to alcohol to face her demons.

Brian has a hard life and is unable to trust people but shows he has a caring side when he meets Jenny.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wrath is the first novel in the Deadliest Sins series. This is my tenth novel by this author.

Initially reading this, I felt like there some other part of the story that I had missed. The main characters had already fled and were trying to rebuild their lives but I wasn’t sure what had happened to them before.

Continuing to read, it didn’t matter what I missed. The story gave me flashbacks and bits of information to put some pieces together though not a full picture.

When his women is taken,  Konstandin risks everything to rescue her even if it meant his own life.

I love this author and I will happily read everything she writes.

Surviving Wrath is the last novel in the Deadliest Sins series by Gwyn McNamee. This is my twelfth novel by this author.

With such a fast paced conclusion, it left me with a lot of questions and I hope the author may come back to this series to fill in the blanks. Felt like the ending was open ended with the possibility for me which I am all for. The ending definitely leaves you speechless and not sure what to think. I have all these questions about what happened to the characters and how things progress.

The novels are really short and quick to read but they are worth it.

I am hoping there is more in the series because I would love to read more by this author.

Finding herself caught between not knowing about her past and being abducted by someone unknown to her, Tawny begins a journey to discover more about herself before it’s too late.

This was an interesting take on the shifter genre and one I hope there is more of. Tawny was a different protagonist then what I normally see and I felt her name fit her character because it was also unique.

There was a lot of twists and turns and left me wanting to quickly turn to the pages to see what happens next.

With school starting again tomorrow, I’m glad I got a chance to read this and can’t wait for the next book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Orion’s Kiss is a novel by Claire Luana. This is my sixth novel by this author.

I noticed the beautiful cover before read the plot.

Meriah Carmichael is forced to watch as her sister dies. Atleast that is her name in this lifetime. Before her name was Metrope who was a half nymph, half Titan. One of the sister tried to free their Dad Atlas from their curses but failed and got cursed themselves.

So now each lifetime, Metrope has to watch Orion’s, Zeus’ bodyguard kills her sisters but this time maybe she has found a way to stop him.

I really enjoyed this story. I don’t know much about Greek mythology but I always love stories that have that element in them.

Meriah was an interesting character and I thought it was cool that our name is similar just spelled different.

I thought Orion was some bad guy who enjoyed what he was doing but there was more to his character that I originally thought.

I look forward to reading more by this author.

For anyone looking for steamy scenes with a twist, I recommend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Girls Across the Bay is the first novel in the Knox and Sheppard series by Emerald O’ Brien. This is my first novel by this author.

I really enjoyed this mystery novel involving two girls that are in foster care and are separated but meet again as adults because of their careers. It made me curious how much the two had changed as the years passed and how much the past affected their lives. The author does an amazing job of weaving the past and present giving the reader just enough information without spoiling too much and still leaving some questions to be answered.

I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this novel or not. Sure it had some flaws such as some things didn’t feel all that realistic but it didn’t take away from the story just because some things were described or in depth.

I loved the characters as well as the twists and turns. I don’t want to give away too much.

This a series I look forward to continuing.

In the small town of Rocky Flats, the weeks starts like any other but when 25 students and 3 teachers disappear, the town rallies together to solve this mystery. With help from the bus driver whose name is Telly and another student, follows clues in search of the missing people.

From the title of this novel, I thought the plot had something to do with the future like kids from the future coming to the past for an unknown reason. But the mystery is more than even I thought it was going to be.

The novel started out slow, but it did keep me interested. With the holiday, I wasn’t able to do a binge a read like I usually do, so I had to keep putting it down, but once it got into the story, I was reading it more quickly.

For anyone who wants to interesting and unique mystery, I would recommend.

I loved the main character’s name because it was unique and it made me think of the Swan Princess movie.

I hope there is another novel in this series soon.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Steele Resolve is the sixth novel in the Hawke Family series my Gwyn McNamee. This is my ninth novel by this author.

Words can’t describe how I feel after reading this. This author is one of my favorites and I have to read whatever she writes when I see she has something new coming out.

This was just as emotional and roller coaster ride as the previous novels and I loved this one to pieces. It had me sad, cry, happy and at times I wasn’t sure what to feel.

I read that this was the last installment in the Hawke family series. I am not ready to say goodbye to these characters. In fact, I may just reread the series including the novels I did not get a chance to read.

I don’t read a lot of M/M romances but I am going to start putting this on my list especially anything as engaging as this with Romeo and Juliet vibe (which is my favorite play).

I look forward to authors next novel even if the book is not this series.

Devil’s Due is the third novel in the Satan’s Devils MC Colorado series by Manda Mellett. This is my third novel by this author.

I haven’t had much time to read lately because of school, but this was nice and needed break.

I am starting to become hooked on this series and like the previous books, it feels like each book gets better and better.

I don’t wanna give too much of the plot away but I will say this novel will leave you on the edge of your seat. From their first meeting, the female protagonist Stevie, and the male protagonist are on a roller coaster ride of twist and turns and sassy personalities which I loved.

The male protagonist wasn’t looking for a relationship, after getting out of one, but he can’t help but feel drawn to Stevie. Stevie has this self reliant personality about her and I loved reading her history. Made me love her all the more.

I don’t read many books involving bikers, but I may start finding others similar to this.

I may be behind in my schoolwork now, but this novel was definitely worth it. Each cover is so unique that it helps pull you into the story.

I hope we get another novel in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dinner with The Wolf is the second novel in the Misfits and Rogues series by Kimberly Forrest. This is my first novel by this author.

Taking place after the first book,which follows Vivian after she has made a contract with Thane to not lose her beauty. She is an actress but she didn’t read the fine print and would be in Thane’s debt for 200 years.

Knowing that Thane will kill her after what she did, she runs and in this book she tries to keep a low profile in order to not be found. Jules Kincaid, who doesn’t like her, is tasked with bringing her back, something he doesn’t want to do. Jules is also having trouble with his wolf, and slowing starting to lose his sanity.

Will these two continue to argue and hate each other or is it just cover for their attraction to each other?

It has been some time since I was able to read a paranormal romance novel and there were a few elements I enjoyed. One, being enemies to lovers. No matter how many times I read it, I never get tired of it.

I will admit this was the first time I was not very fond of the female protagonist. She was self centered and just came off vain. Over time, she was more likeable and her character began to develop more.

Overall, I recommend this novel and I look forward to reading the next time.

I really enjoyed this novel and loved the two worlds aspect with Dahlia feeling conflicted which fit with her personality. I love reading about her. She is a strong, interesting, female character that is relatable and shows a lot of emotion.

With school starting again, it hard to get into a book, but this book was a rollercoaster that left me wanting to finish reading even though I had papers and assignments to finish.

For anyone looking for a interesting take on the supernatural genre, I highly recommend this series. The covers are so pretty, they just pull you in.

This novel is filled with suspense and twist and turns. Just when I thought I knew what was going to happened, I was completely surprised.

I recommend this novel novel and series to anyone looking for something different to read.
