Key to Tirumfall (Tirumfall Trilogy Book 3) by J Drew Brumbaugh – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur

Key to Tirumfall (Tirumfall Trilogy #3)Key to Tirumfall by J. Drew Brumbaugh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story is set seventeen years after the last installment and Gwen and Seth are adults, but still as close as ever, although Seth isn’t always happy when he gets into trouble when Gwen gets up to mischief! She has become quite proficient in the magical arts thanks to her uncle, the Emperor Pris teaching her, but she wants to see the world and is determined to do it. She has heard the tales of the Tower of Tirumfall and wants to see it for herself and find out what magic there is to learn there and she is insisting that Seth goes with her.

In Pogor, Isabella is living the life that Gwen was supposed to have and is not as proficient in the magical arts as she was meant to be, but she is happy in her own way, until she decides to stop the war between the two demon lords and get them to swear allegiance to her. Their destinies are twisted together, but they do not know of each other’s existence, or that they have been exchanged, this is until a stranger comes and announces it. This leads Isabella to leave with this stranger to find the true child of prophecy and sort things out once and for all, but this journey may not be as smooth running as they expect.

The Tower of Tirumfall, however, is drawing more than just the attention of Gwen and Seth, there are others with not so innocent intentions, but who will make it to the Tower first, will they get into it at all, will it yield the knowledge that everyone craves, or will it be more than anyone can handle?

This is a fantastic conclusion to a great trilogy,but the only way to find out how it ends is to read through this fast paced and enthralling finale.

There are many rules to follow as your mom’s guest at the company holiday party.
Rule one – do not, under any circumstances, find the new boss so attractive.
Rule two – definitely do not undress him with your eyes.
Rule three – if he slips you his phone number, throw it away. I repeat, throw it away. Who cares if just one look into his blue eyes makes you want to drag him underneath the nearest mistletoe?
Rule four – when you show up at his house the next day, do not let him kiss you. Your lips are meant to say good-bye.
Rule five – at no point should you let him take off your clothes like he’s unwrapping his sexy Christmas gift. And moaning will only make it worse.
Rule six – rule six is a bonus rule, so pay attention. Forget rules one through five.

Shift Happens: A Paranormal Romantic Comedy (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 2) by Carrie Pulkinen – Author
Sophie Burroughs is determined to be a witch. Her grandmother was a witch. All the other supes say she smells like a witch, but she can’t cast a spell to save her life.
Sprouting fur is so not on her to-do list.
But when a smokin’ hot werewolf bites her and then accuses her of crimes against his pack, she has until the next full moon to prove him wrong and stop his magic from transforming her into a wolf.
A romp in the sack would be a nice bonus, too.
Trace Thibodeaux didn’t mean to bite Sophie. The red wolves have been cursed, she’s the prime suspect, and if he wants to keep his rank in the pack, he has to end her magic by any means necessary.
But that doesn’t include sheathing his sword in a witch’s scabbard.
He’s gotten into bed with the enemy before, and that’s a mistake he’ll never make again.
Or will he?
If you like funny heroines and smoldering shifters, you’ll love this steamy paranormal romantic comedy.

Carrie Pulkinen is a paranormal romance author who has always been fascinated with things that go bump in the night. Of course, when you grow up next door to a cemetery, the dead (and the undead) are hard to ignore. Pair that with her passion for writing and her love of a good happily-ever-after, and becoming a paranormal romance author seems like the only logical career choice.

Before she decided to turn her love of the written word into a career, Carrie spent the first part of her professional life as a high school journalism and yearbook teacher. She loves good chocolate and bad puns, and in her free time, she likes to read, drink wine, and travel with her family.

Key to Tirumfall (Tirumfall Trilogy #3) by J Drew Brumbaugh

Brumbaugh did it again. The Tirumfall Trilogy is a great series. Each book can be read as a stand alone.

Gwen has lived with Gant and his wife since they took her from birth. She doesn’t know until the day she leaves the forest. She takes her brother with her. The quote I chose for Gwen is: “Who are you? How did you get in here?”

Gant let his only son leave with the one they claim their daughter. When they tell her the truth she learns that her life is different. The quote I chose for Gant is: “No, it has a bit of magic in it though I’m not sure what magic or who enchanted it. I hope it serves you well.”

Highly recommended for fantasy lovers.

Breaking Tessa by T. Christensen – Review by Liz Vrchota

Breaking Tessa: A College Sport RomanceBreaking Tessa: A College Sport Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I do love me some sports romances, throw in the whole opposites attract and you have one heck of a winner for me for a great Sunday afternoon read. Breaking Tessa is the epitome of an opposites attract trope, but it is done with some extra pizazz and with the sports theme underlying. Tessa Parker wants nothing more than to blend in and stay under the radar so to speak. Jordan Davis is the star of the show everywhere he goes thanks to his basketball skills. These two will meet and change the course of their lives. Will they find a way to come together and last despite the very different views on life? I love how this being predictable didn’t kill my enjoyment of the story. It sucked me in and I just had to know how Tessa and Jordan’s story played out. I look forward to seeing what we will get next from T. Christensen!

Moonlight and Belladonna: A Small Town Halloween Romance (Hartwood Holiday Romance) by Jae Dawson – Review by Liz Vrchota

Moonlight and BelladonnaMoonlight and Belladonna by Jae Dawson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you are a huge fan of the Hallmark’s holiday theme movies, then this book is for you! From what I gather this whole series will be for you! Moonlight and Belladonna is the first in the Hartwood Holiday Romance series from Jae Dawson, and I am hella excited to see what the other books will entail. This one is all centered around fall in an idyllic little town called Hartwood. I kinda wish I could go visit the real place but this is fictional and only in my head at the moment. This book transported me to the falling leaves, warm apple pie, delicious cider, and that crisp feel to the air that is all too new even though it happens every year. Fall is undoubtedly my favorite time of year so this book was a complete hit for me on many many levels.

While this book is a sweet romance during the wonderful fall season, it does have more substance to it than just that. I love how real issues were addressed and you felt the spirit of the characters fluctuate with what was happening. It does have plenty of the good stuff but sometimes it’s nice to see that life is just as real in a book as it is IRL. I can’t close my review without a nod to that last chapter of sexiness! Holy hot cakes this one will have you wanting to take a plunge in ice water! I loved it and I cannot wait to see what the rest of this series will bring us!

Tompkin's School: For The Resurrected (Supernatural Trilogy #3)Tompkin’s School: For The Resurrected by Tabi Slick
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have really enjoyed this trilogy, A Supernatural Academy Trilogy, from Tabi Slick. This is a series that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, as I also know my teen daughter adores this series as well. The world building is fantastic and you feel as if you are off to school in a magical place right in the middle of all the action. This is the third and final book in the trilogy, and I would personally recommend that you read them in order before this one. You will know the storyline and characters well by now and won’t be nearly as lost. I loved how this concluded with a big bang of a battle that will be with me for many days to come. This being the end does have me a tad sad but I am eager to see what Tabi Slick is working on for the future.

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

Big City Heat: A High-Rise Romance AnthologyBig City Heat: A High-Rise Romance Anthology by Hazel Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a collection of short stories which will immerse you into each of the worlds for a few minutes and leave you wanting more.

The stories and authors are:
“The 57th Floor” by Hazel Storm
“A Hole” by Phoebe Alexander
“Asylum Club” by Aidy Award
“44th & Blue” by Jodi Payne
“Global City Tryst” by Maida Malby
“Felling Bechet” by Stella Williams
‘The Wolf of Wall Street” by Lucy Eden
“Make Me Beg” by Moni Boyce
“Courtney” by Jayce Ellis
“The Glass Tower” by Emily Gray
“The RIght Note” by Bree Kraemer

The collection held stories by authors I love and some authors which I have newly healthy appetite to read more. As i devoured theses stories there are a few which stuck out, A-Hole by Phoebe Alexander, The Wolf of Wall Street by Lucy Eden and Make me beg by Moni Bryce.

A-Hole by Phoebe Alexander – This story is full of humour and is a brilliant short story, the characters are well developed as usual and although this is a short story it does not feel like that, you want to know more. The story revolves around Ella and Ace, with him trying to make her laugh but with her insecurities on high alert as to will she be the butt of the joke.

The wolf of Wall Street by Lucy Eden – This story has a hint of paranormal vibe which is not really my genre but this story was full of deep emotion and a story which will have you turning the pages to finish.

Make me beg By Moni Bryce – This is a mob infested story, full of action and strong characters. It has a good build up and is exciting and I loved the character of Tegean and her internal struggle to love someone she should not love.

Each story has a different angle but is full of strong characters and great addition to my reading library.

Shattered Snow is the first book in The Mirror Chronicles by Rachel Huffmire. Wow, this has got to be one of the most original retellings I have ever read. Snow White meets time travel, history and mythology. I was captivated from the moment I read the blurb. The author’s cleverly crafted plot, superb character development, and imaginative details really brought this story to life. Snow White just got a whole lot more interesting, that’s for sure.
Looking forward to the rest of the series!

Thank you, Rachel Huffmire!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5/5 Stars

The Magic of Christmas by Christi Barth

This is the first book I’ve read by Barth, but it won’t be my last one. I loved the holiday movie vibe I got from it. The characters were just like the Hallmark movies.

Rowan has had a tough life. From childhood to adulthood. One thing after another always happens to her. When she’s up for a big promotion she is also sent to a resort with her biggest enemy. The quote I chose for Rowan is: “No. No, I won’t help you. At least, not until Jeremy’s shared his side of the story. And I don’t want the promotion by default. It wouldn’t mean nearly as much as if I beat him out, fair and square.”

Jeremy had a rough life with a deadbeat dad. When his step-dad stepped in and saved the day. Literally. He works hard but he finds himself falling for a coworker. The quote I chose for Jeremy is: “I do know. More than you think. My mom and I struggled, too. My dad was a deadbeat. Plain and simple. Spent what we had, and then what we didn’t. When she left him, things got even worse.”

I highly recommend this for anyone who loves romantic comedy.

This book is full of magic, danger, wizards, wonderful characters, and so much more. The author does an exceptional job pulling you into this amazing adventure that you don’t want to end. I couldn’t put this book down until I found out how it ends and once I got to the end I didn’t want it to be over. I will definitely be looking out for more books by this author.

This story will take you on a wonderful journey through the creation of mankind and evolution . The information he shared is very interesting and some I had no idea. This isn’t normally my type of book to read but im so glad I did. I recommend reading this wonderfully written book. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

There has not been one single book by Manda, that I have not fallen head over heels in love with!!! I don’t know how she does it but the guys just keep getting hotter and better.
Grumbler was no different. He thought he was too old to settle down and he was content living his life with his brothers and his bike. Until he met Mary. You will not be disappointed with this book or better yet, this ENTIRE series!!!! This is one author that I wait on pins and needles for new books to be released! I definitely can not wait to see who is next!!! I am hoping it’s Dusty and see what happens after he catches the bouquet!!!

Grumbler’s Ride (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #2) by Manda Mellett

5 +++++ Stars

Whew! Took me a bit to get my thoughts together on this newest installment of the Satan’s Devils. Started a bit slow for me which was a shock because normally I’m done and hooked after the first page, but I’d say an eighth of the way in I was completely invested. Then by the end I realize this is now one of my favorites from the many books in this series that spans a few cities and charters.

Not gonna lie, there was a scene that had me putting my kindle down and having to walk away for a while. It made me need to focus on something else to get my mind off of what I’d just read. By the time I picked it back up I was plotting and planning right along with them to have a few people meet Satan. Serious respect for this author’s ability to get through that part of writing this story.

I loved Grumbler, and equally loved Mary, and Alicia became one of my favorite people towards the end. There were so many things I loved about this story. The family aspect of the club came through loud and clear and bringing in Utah was genius and I feel absolutely needed in that ongoing storyline. I feel a building of that open storyline coming and can’t wait to see how that plays out.

I wanted an epilogue a few months ahead at the end of this so bad, I kept trying to turn the last page and nothing… I so hope we don’t have to wait very long, I need to know how it all turns out.

Once again I finish a Manda Mellett book and wonder who is next, what charter will it be and realize I don’t care…I just need it now!

Awesome story, awesome characters, there are so many books but reading them all gives you the whole of this amazing MC…That is my goal someday to start and go all the way through rereading every single one!

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon
Genre – Romance, Holidays, sweet romance
Curl up by the fire with a glass of mulled wine or hot chocolate and celebrate the magic of Christmas, with these FIVE linked, heart-warming stories about love, hope and family.
A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem
Australian project manager Kiara Lonsdale is career focussed and determined to provide and care for the grandmother who raised her. Jacques Lenoir and his extended family run tours in Israel and he’s committed to their business.
But over romantic dinners in the desert, camel rides, and mud baths at the Dead Sea, sparks fly between Kiara and Jacques. Will this only be a holiday romance or will a touch of Christmas magic make it last a lifetime?
Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem
For Lucie Lenoir, being a tour guide in Jerusalem is part of the family business. And the only thing that means more to her than family, is a child of her own.
Australian Tom Connor has come to Israel to attend a friend’s wedding. The attraction between him and Lucie is instant and sizzling. But he finds Lucie’s big Christian family overwhelming, and he’s never wanted a child of his own.
Will this only be a holiday romance or will a touch of Christmas magic allow them to find a compromise and make it last a lifetime?
Christmas Kiss, New Year’s Wish
Taylor Williamson may have a massive crush on her best friend, Luca Bianchi, but their twenty-year friendship is too important to lose over one kiss, make that two kisses, on Christmas.
Luca only sees her as a friend, and he’s about to return overseas for a two-year contract, so no more kissing. Right?
Taylor may wish for their Christmas kiss to lead to more. But how can she hold on to him when he was never hers to begin with?
Christmas Kiss in London
The flirtatious guy Amber accidentally friends on social media could be perfect, if only he weren’t younger than her, a party-guy surrounded by beautiful women, and living halfway around the world.
Stuntman Darcy Harris may be based in London, but his work on blockbuster movies can have him away from home for months at a time. That doesn’t leave time for anything other than casual hookups.
He’s younger and has a booming career ahead of him. She wants to settle down and start a family. But can friendship turn to forever love when they share a snowy Christmas kiss in London?
Christmas Kiss: But only for the holidays

Everything is planned perfectly…or so he thinks.
But when Christmas kisses get heated, Leo realises not everything in his life can be meticulously organised. Can a dash of Christmas magic make this “arrangement” permanent?

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The History of the Universe: As My Soul and I Remember It by Stuart Ledwith was an interesting read, to say the least. This was not a typical book that I would read. I’m not much into reading religious books, but the synopsis of this book sounded really interesting, so I decided to give it a try. This was not a typical religious book, and while the author states that the events in this book happened, it read more as a fiction book to me than a nonfiction book. I was confused throughout, but that didn’t keep me from reading and finishing this novel. While it was well written, it also went away in some parts and I found it difficult to concentrate on. This was a very interesting read though, no doubt!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love books like this that include time travel where the the main character Maggie goes back in time. And not only is Maggie a time traveler but her Father Time travelled into to future and has been living here for 25 or more years. What a treat! I can tell that the author really put a lot of heart and soul into the book, making sure we could imagine being in 16th century Scotland. The language, the romance, the betrayal all helps to connect you to the story which adds to the enjoyment of the book. There were a few spots that kind of got lengthy but overall, I really enjoyed this book.

The Magic of ChristmasThe Magic of Christmas by Christi Barth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Magic of Christmas by Christi Barth was a fun read that helped me kick off my holiday season. I found myself smiling many times throughout the story and it really was just one of those feel good reads you look forward to curling up with.
I was surprised how quickly I was drawn to Jeremy as a character, unlike Rowan, Jeremy didn’t take any “getting used to” at all. Rowan was hard to like for me at first, her all work, no play persona was irritating at best. I did start to enjoy Rowan’s personality a bit more as the story progressed and her interactions with Jeremy were really entertaining. The characters had great chemistry and once again, brought a smile to my face and gave me feel good vibes.
I grew up in New Hampshire and have fond memories of day trips to a Christmas theme park we have in the northern part of the state, I loved that the story was set around a place so similar.
If you are looking for a fun, easy to read story to get yourself in a bit of holiday spirit, I would recommend the Magic of Christmas with a 4 star rating!

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

This is such an amazing series…and I’m sad that the last brother has gotten his story because I really don’t want it to end.

We are introduced to Trey in the first book. He has been away from Texas due to his baseball career. Now that that’s over…he finds himself wanting the quiet country life back home. So, he comes home and takes over a bookstore. As the holidays approach, he finds joy in taking part in getting into the holiday spirit by decorating his storefront. However, there is someone who has a problem with this…Miss Christmas.

Maggie is the town librarian and she LOVES Christmas. She loves helping the town get into the Christmas spirit by painting the windows of the stores in town. But when she sees the bookstore is painted by someone other than herself…well she won’t lose her Christmas spirit title to Trey Prentice (even if she used to have a crush on him).

The witty banter and back and forth between these two characters is fun to read and made me fall in love with them even more. There is just something wholesome about this series that I love. It feels like a place I would want to call home. This book takes its time getting to the happy ending we have come to look forward to…and it is sooo worth the wait! Another amazing story by a great author!

What a powerful couple to lead this MC. I will say that I’m not a huge fan of the older couple romance but Manda’s writing has me rethinking that. I can’t wait for more in this series.

Breaking Tessa by T. Christensen – Review by Bobbi Wagner

Breaking Tessa: A College Sport RomanceBreaking Tessa: A College Sport Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this sports romance story. This is an author that continues to impress me with her writing skills and her attention to details. I enjoyed being pulled in right from the beginning. The characters are connectable and they made the story enjoyable to read. This is an engaging story that kept me turning pages. This is a story that puts the theory of opposites attract to the test. Jordan is a well known basketball star and Tessa is not used to all the glamor and glitz that follow Jordan. Will they find a middle and get a HEA? Their chemistry is strong even if they are opposites. I found myself hoping they would find the happiness they so deserved. This was a great romance story that I would highly recommend.

The Magic of Christmas by Christi Barth – Review by Kandy Garrett

The Magic of ChristmasThe Magic of Christmas by Christi Barth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book got me more into the holiday spirit than I expected it to. I loved the characters, I loved the premise, and I found some spots in this book that really pulled at my heartstrings. There was very real conflict and turmoil that was well written. I read most of it at one time, it had a great flow and I found that when I looked, I was farther in than I expected. If there is one magic of Christmas books on your list this year, I truly recommend this one.
