This author blew me away right away with this story. This is the first book I’ve ever read from the author and I couldn’t stop turning pages! I just had to know what would happen next. It does start off a bit slow but then it jumps right into a fantasy world. Miranda finds out that she has powers she is unable to handle and is trying her best to keep them hidden from others who will destroy her because she has them! Then she discovers that there are others like her and then her works shifts as they try to hide themselves from common people! Of course as a runaway, you know that Miranda will find herself getting into trouble at some point, but the best part is watching her life unfold worn every page! I’m looking forward to glow book two will fill in all the missing pieces. Amazing book!

Because when you least expect it… and when you’re least ready for it… love happens.

But one thing’s for sure… his career will always come first. When an unexpected promotion threatens to take him back to California, Casey reels, forced to choose between the man who captured her heart and the newfound path to success he led her down.
With her heart torn down the middle, Casey leaves the choice in Austin’s hands. After all, what’s more important? A job… or love?

This was a really good read! I enjoyed the ethnicity of the characters and just the vibe of the book in general. It was easy to get lost in and also easy to read. The characters were very enjoyable and the story was interesting and held my interest. My only complaint was the lack of connectedness to time, and some of the conversations were a little hard to follow. Other than that I really enjoyed this book! I’m excited to read more from this author in the future!
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Ice Dance is a lovely read and I look forward to more by the author. The book draws you in and keeps you hooked.
Hassan is used to not celebrating the Christmas holiday. Sure he gets with family, but this year is different. He is no jobless and about to be homeless. Can he figure something out before it’s too late? The quote I chose for Hassan is: “With the movie, I’m just thinking. If I knew the person I loved was alive, I would have done anything I could to visit them. She could have brought him a pizza or something.”
Yasmine isn’t exactly from this realm. In her realm she is a princess and she witnessed her father’s death. Now the one wanting to take over is chasing her. The quote I chose for Yasmine is: “Yes. The Red Kingdom refused to honor me as the queen until I turned twenty-one. It’s an age-old rule. Vincent understood this and set the wedding to be held right after my birthday. Once we are married, he will be king, and the Red Kingdom will again share their resources. That is horrible news for Hollow-Maid. Things are already bad and will only get worse.”
This story……wow!! I love how this author incorporates a new MC Chapter to her writing….and the Devil’s Handmaidens MC is all female, which I loved! This story has part that were definitely not easy to get though …the triggers were tough at times…but this author painted a picture that felt so raw and real.
Maggie aka “Tink” is president of the Devil’s Handmaidens and she and her MC family are all about helping rescue human trafficking victims. When in life this is what Tink does..she feels likes she is missing something and someone to share her life with. When Ellington aka “L” comes into town helping out and being an former SEAL….when Tink meets L the sparks fly off the charts!! What happens when something behind the very dark shadows is lurking around the Devil’s Handmaidens MC ranch that can put Tink and her MC Family in danger, especially when only a small circle of family and friends knows Tink’s past…..
I do not want to post any spoilers as I could go on and on about this book…but believe me this is a true must read. The story is raw and moments are dark for sure. I love the intertwining of the characters in this story especially Zoey “Shadow”. I cannot wait to get my hands on book 2 to see where this series takes me.

Kate finds herself in a new place because of her job. While Kate is on the island she stumbles across a man she is extremely attracted too. Meanwhile he is hiding his true identity of who he is from her. Unbeknownst to Kate he’s her boss. I was highly addicted to this book. I could not get enough.

Misfortune of Song is the fifth book in the Druid’s Brooch Series by Christy Nicholas. This is a historical fantasy- with action, adventure, magic, paranormal elements, drama, romance, mystery, humour, young love, challenges, heartbreak, betrayal, danger, battles, bargains, and fantastic world building. I have said it before, and I say it again, I really love the attention to detail and vividly descriptive storytelling that Ms. Nicholas excels at- it brings her stories to life and makes them very realistic, believable, and entirely immersive. As with the other books in this series that I have read, this is really well written, intriguing, and engaging. The story pulled me in and kept my attention right from the beginning. The character/s are complex, fully realised individuals who were cleverly crafted- with interesting and quirky natures. I haven’t read the books in this series in sequence- instead picking books by random- thankfully each book is able to be read as a standalone. Having said that though, if you love a great fantasy with lots of historical elements, then you would most definitely enjoy the other books in this series as well- and after reading one, you will probably want to explore more/all. In this book we meet Maelan and his granddaughter Orlagh, who live in Ireland in the 12th century. Maelan is determined to protect his granddaughter, even from herself, as well as fulfil his duty to chief, and uphold the family name. Orlagh is a little headstrong and impulsive, and tests all the boundaries he tries to impose. But choices are made, and the consequences are quite disastrous. Maelan must decide what he is prepared to do in order to save her? Can he succeed? What happens? You really should read the story and discover all the intriguing details for yourself- it’s well worth your time!

This book is magic, romance and comedy all bundled into one delightful tale. Hassan is relatable and the writing immediately draws you in. It’s takes you on an adventure that you hope will never end. Fantastical fantasy!

Tink is the first book in the Devil’s Handmaidens MC series by D.M Earl. It is a MC romance- a romantic suspense with plenty of emotion, danger, dramatic developments, trust issues, damaged characters, friendship, family (of choice), finding love unexpectedly, human trafficking element, finding purpose, finding where you belong, chemistry, tension, intensity, and camaraderie. This isn’t my first read by Ms. Earl, and I know I can always count on her to deliver an intense read. Tink and Noodles story packs a bit of an emotional wallop and had me invested right from the start. A great start to this new series… Looking forward to Book #2- ‘Shadow’. Happy Reading!

This was a really enjoyable book. Hassan was a really laid back kind of hero but as reading the story the reader had to root for him and cheer as he battled through all the challenges and obstacles he came up against. The story kept my attention and I especially liked the jokes that were in the book cause I am a sucker for bad jokes,as I am always telling them myself. I enjoyed this author and I look forward to seeing more from them.
This is one of my favorite authors so of course I jumped right in. This book exceeded all my expectations. The author did an exceptional job writing about a subject that isn’t talked about often. I experienced an array of emotions while reading this story. I was pulled in from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down until I finished. Both Petty and Roselyn have been through so much that I found myself rooting for them and I became completely invested in the outcome of their story. I highly recommend this book, it is an awesome book.

Carina is not feeling the Christmas Spirit this year after caring for both of her ill parents and then her own battle with Covid. Carina is unhappy that only one of her children and a member of her online support group are planning to celebrate Christmas with her. She would really love to have all her kids, grandkids and husband together for an old fashioned Christmas. This story touched the heart. I laughed and cried. Such a good book!!

What a great read, I was hooked instantly and couldn’t put it down. I feel like I learned a lot from this book, and I need to learn more!

This series has been great from the beginning, but it really does just keep getting better. Book 5 of the Master of the Consulate series picks up right after the last book. Master Catteneo is not looking for love and definitely not with a human. Alessia is a human but gifted. He doesn’t know what hit him when he meets her. Can she help them find their queen? Can she be trusted? I can’t wait to jump into book 6!

A Christmas to Remember is a well written collection of delightful, Christmas romance stories. I enjoyed being able to read different author’s works in one book. Each story flowed wonderfully.

This book had my attention from start to finish!!! If you have felt alone and yet surrounded by people, this book is for you. Jasper Lee Andrews (the Main Character) shows you how to survive/disappear from those who are out to hurt you or even worse kill you. Jasper’s world is turned upside in a matters of hours. She goes from being a part of a family of five to an orphan after the Order kills her family. With the help of some new “friends” she is able to get the revenge she has desperately needed. I can’t wait until book two comes out!!!

When I started this book, I didn’t realize it was book 2 of a series when i started reading it, but that’s okay because I don’t feel like I missed anything. I definitely plan to go back to read book 1 though. I really enjoyed this thriller; it was well written and kept me hooked the entire time. I read this in a day. Great work from the author, I can’t wait to see what else comes next.

Yasmine is everything he ever wanted. Things seem almost too good to be true for Hassan when Yasmine gives him her number, except it is not a phone number. A week later, Hassan starts to give up on Yasmine, when he gets a phone call for an interview, except it is not an interview. It is an interrogation. Yasmine is on the run and the interrogator is looking for her. Hassan barely makes it out alive, with the help of Yasmine, but now he is in deep danger for the girl he has fallen in love with. Will they escape? Find out in Ice Dance. Ice Dance is a whimsical read full of action, thrill, romance, and comedic relief. All the characters are relatable, and the descriptions are vivid. This book will keep you engaged until the very end. If you are looking for a fantasy story full of magic, romance, and comedy, look no further and pick up a copy of Ice Dance.

Definitely needs a trigger warning! Tinks story was hard to get through. No girl let alone child deserves to go through was she did. She is an inspiration though to all women and the male characters are as well. The MC being a cover and what she actually does taking down sex trafficking rings is brave and amazing. Hannah and Shadow are two peas in a pod toward the end and I feel like there should be a book about just their relationship. Tank and Noodles are bad a’s for sure but have hearts for who they hold close. The character description is great as well as the acts that take place when they are torturing for information. Incredible story.

Misfortune of Song (The Druid’s Brooch series, Book 5) 4 out of 5 stars
The Druid’s Brooch series does not fall under the category of genres I read very often but with books so well written, I’ve gladly made an exception. Misfortune of Song is the fifth book in the series by Christy Nicholas but it can easily be read by itself; in fact I’ve been reading this series out of order. Once again Christy Nicholas has captured me with her storytelling, in depth characters and fantastic imagery. The storyline had a bit of everything to keep me engaged and my emotions on edge. I believe in my last review I stated that the book I had just read was my favorite in the series, I’d have to go back on my word and say Misfortune of Song has stolen that spot. Let this be an example of the kind of series this is, once you think you couldn’t love the books anymore, you read the next installment. Misfortune of Song has introduced me to a whole new world and much welcomed break from reality, if only for a short period. I will be recommending this author/series to anyone I know that’s looking for a fantastic read all around.

D.M. Earl has already shown how great she is at writing intense stories and this is just another amazing example. I was hooked on this story from the word go and could not put it down. I loved the story of Tink and Ellington. They connection was so strong it pulled me in. The book was really well written. The author has such a unique writing style and it is one I really enjoy. This book has a depth and complexity about it that you wouldn’t necessarily expect from this type of book. This is a brilliant book that I thoroughly enjoyed.

This book was an unexpectedly great YA fantasy story. I didn’t really know what to expect when I started reading this book but I was pulled into it straight away. Evan is one of those characters that you can’t help but like. He does things differently to everyone else and I found it really engaging. The book had a great development arc too. It started off relatively so but did not stay that way for long. The author created a pace that added to the book and made it even more enjoyable. This is a new author to me and they have definitely piqued my interest. This is a great book and I would highly recommend it.

Wow. Talk about a crazy story. Tink is prez of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC, an all women biker club. Her dad, Tank, is head of his own MC. When someone from Tink’s past starts sending psychotic messages to her, it comes down to the people who love her most to keep her sane and safe. If you love friendship, love, betrayal, mischief, heartbreak, and reconciliation, this is the book for you. It hits on hard topics, but it’s totally worth it in the end. Read this book, it really changes your perspective of the world. Writing is great with awesome plot twists! Be ready to be on the edge of your seat the entire time!

Earl – Review by Kayla Octaviano
She’s at the tender age of 17 years old but Laurel Collingsworth knows without a doubt she wants to marry Lord Robert Laningham. Her aunt is beside herself because this just isn’t how things are done! However, aunt Betsy relents and Laurel and Lord Robert are married. Just as soon as they arrive at their manor, things start to challenge their marriage. First of all, Lord Robert failed to sharing his upcoming nuptials with his twin sister, Rhonda. Let’s just say that Rhonda does not handle this news well at all because now there are two Lady Laninghams and Rhonda’s not ready to share that title with anyone. Then, just mere days after their marriage, Lord Robert is called away to fight in the war, leaving his new wife with his hostile and, dare I say, crazy, sister. Will Laurel ever be able to adjust to this new life and deal with her sister-in-law?
This book was enjoyable and kept to a lot of historical speech. I found myself laughing at some of the language used, as it’s not heard anymore and sounded funny. There were parts of this book that were never resolved but maybe that wasn’t necessary because in the end, it’s about Robert and Laurel. I’d have liked to known how certain situations would have fleshed out though. This is a fairly clean read with some romantic scenes, but they are not overly descriptive and could be appropriate for mature teen readers.

Misfortune of Song: An Irish Historical Fantasy Family Saga by Christy Nicholas is a blend of fantasy history and Celtic mythology and is another great addition to the series. It is a story that will have your emotions all over the place and will have you laughing and crying. This book can be read as a standalone, as most of them can, but I would read them in order.
Maelan is a man of honour and code, but sometimes his granddaughter, Orlagh could drive him to drink. How far would he go to protect the one thing he loves in his life?
Orlagh is stubborn and bull-headed and often rebels against her grandfather. She wants what she wants and what she wants is the young man she has fallen in love with, be damned the consequences.
This is a world where there is magic and Fae and is wonderfully written to make it a magical read.

The Dwarves Dilemma (Science Folktales) by Lois Wickstrom 4 Stars
This was so much fun to read! It had familiar characters from other fairytales to attract children. The Queen was the fairest in the land so everyone came to her to solve their problems. What happens when the magic mirror shows that both sides are right? The Queen sends Snow White to investigate and she really that the Queen is not being fair. A perfect story to teach children to have good morals. At the back of the book you also learn how mirrors work. It’s very cool!
So this is just an okay story for me. I was expecting a mafia story and felt this is an overbearing businessman story with lots of smexy times. Sure he could be mafia but it is not eluded to until the end. I feel the author is just drawing it out to make it into more books. Not a lot happens through the whole long book other than slooow character development and lots of sex. I got tired of the main character’s thoughts pertaining to a work relationship. A few are fine..half a book..too much.
I also had confusion over the name Matt used more than once. Early on I just ignored it and realized later on I should not have as it became important and I wondered if it was the same person and I just did not make the connection earlier. But it wasn’t.
I did like how the characters met each other, their cute emailing and the danger that arrived. This ends in an unfinished story. Not really a cliffhanger but I just turned the page and the book was over leaving me feeling incomplete. This is not a first time author for me but this one is just not my favorite.

This is the first book in a new series called Devil’s Handmaidens MC. And wow what I start. I love any story that revolves around an MC but the majority of then are male dominated so it was really refreshing to read about a female MC. What I loved is that the women of this MC are just as loyal and fierce as any man and they will do what ever it takes to protect the people they care about. This story is very emotional as well as Tink our main character is on the search for her sister who was kidnapped. Thinking she was taken into a traffic ring Tink and her fellow Handmaidens set out to save and take down as many of these trafficking as she can. There is also an element of romance in this story when Noodles walks into Tinks life. Add to the romance the element of danger when Tinks life is put at risk and this is definately a story with something for everyone.
The question is will Tink ever find her sister? And when the past comes back to haunt her will her club and Noodle be enough to protect her. I really enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to read more about the Devil’s Handmaiden’s MC

Love this author truly, they never disappoint me in all they write and create. I was very much taken with this book, it was full of intrigue and strong female characters A book and series right up my alley!
Loved Tink and Noodles. Both had rough circumstances in the past, that have brought them to where they are in life. They were both strong leads. As well as that, they had very strong chemistry together. I loved what Tink stood for, she was in charge of a motorcycle group that helped women, from dangers they could come into, great cause I must say. All the members in this group, have been through the hardest of times, and are still standing. I loved the group for sure, but when you stand for the greater good, there are always others that want to bring you down, The book takes off really fast. A whirlwind kind of action and adventure. Was sucked in completely. Could not put it down! Exceptional reading by an amazing author! Loved it!
I loved this book with a passion, then again, its written by one of my favorite authors. I think it was a great start to a new series! I look forward to the next book! Highly recommend this must read book and author!
