Hard as Steel: Book four (Surviving Series) by Virginia Wine – Review by Maura Harper

Hard as Steel: Book four (Hard as Steel: Book four by Virginia Wine
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by the author and I really wish I had read the others in the series first. I was a little frustrated at first trying to figure out who was who and how they connected. It was like opening a book to the middle with no introduction. Once I figured stuff out, I was ready.

Nichole and Steel have a past, their characters have developed over time and they seem to have a trust and inner language that each other understands. They surround themselves with people they can trust because each knows what happens when you trust someone you shouldn’t. They are both Alphas with their strength and fortitude.

This is a fantastic suspense/romance that is so twisty and twisted I was gobsmacked a few times about how wrong I was with what I thought was going on.

A few tips with this story:

DON’T SKIM – there are a lot of twists and turns and there are words that are very important to the story.
DON’T ASSUME – I caught myself relaxing a few times thinking I knew what was going to happen.
DON’T MISS BOOKS 1-3 – Honestly, I went into this book blind and when I realized I had missed so much background, I went and read reviews on the previous books in the series. Those reviews that recap the entire book so I could be comfortable with this one.

Tomb For An Eagle (Orkneyinga Murders, #1) by Lexie Conyngham – Review by Cindy Mayberry

Tomb for an Eagle (Orkneyinga Murders, #1)Tomb for an Eagle by Lexie Conyngham
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tomb For An Eagle
Orkneyinga Murders
Book 1
By Lexie Conyngham
☆☆☆☆
This is a suspenseful murder mystery. Set back in time.

Lexie Conyngham has written what I consider to be a historical suspense story. The names were old, with a touch of imagination. Which makes them unique. So I know I did not pronounce them correctly. The book was filled with suspense and kept me reading. Lexie Conyngham did a great job setting her book up. She gave plenty of background. That made you feel as though you could see the village as you read the book. I love the characters. Such a great story. So I don’t give any spoilers, I will not tell you about who is who, in this story. You just have to read it. Well done Lexie Conyngham! I will be checking out your other stories as well as keeping up with this series.

Say When (A Cedarville Novel Book #9) by Bree Kraemer – Review by Angela Hayes

Say When (A Cedarville Novel Book 9)Say When by Bree Kraemer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Say When Is the ninth book in the Cedarville novel series by Bree Kraemer. Even though it is the ninth book in the series, it can be read as a standalone without feeling like you are missing vital information or leaving you confused. I love the fact that each book in the Cedarville ‘family’ focuses on a particular couple- but there are recurring characters, who we have met previously, who make appearances, which really gives this book a charming quality. I really enjoy Ms. Kraemer’s writing- she always weaves a wonderful story that entices me in and keeps hold of me right through to the end. This series just seems to get better with each new instalment, not losing momentum or appeal. The characters are so well crafted that they bring the whole story to life. This is definitely one of my favourites of the series, and I really wanted to hang out with them and eat cupcakes ?.
Dani, who we have met previously, as she bakes the desserts for Wes’s restaurant “Dockside” (After All These Years- Book #7) is so quiet, introverted and chronically shy that it has held her back from truly living and following her dreams. This fear has almost taken over her life, and Dani will have to learn to face her fears and overcome them in order to have a ‘real’ life. She’s passionate about baking and always has been- she’s an extremely talented baker who creates incredibly delicious morsels. The very same morsels that a certain chef at “Dockside” can’t seem to get enough of, devouring the tasty sweets daily. What happens when he finally meets the shy baker? Find out in this super sweet story….

Thank you, Ms. Kraemer!

Famished (Ash Park, #1) by Meghan O’Flynn – Review by Jana Teppih

Famished (Ash Park, #1)Famished by Meghan O’Flynn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Famished by Meghan O’Flynn is the opening to her Ash Park series that introduces us to Detective Petrosky who will be our lead throughout the series. How do I know? Well, I happened to pick up the fourth book first and realized that even though it sort of seemed like a standalone, I needed to come back to the beginning …
This opening to the series was a bit underwhelming, at least that is how I felt as I had read the fourth book … I know though that it will get more intense with each book as the writer gets more and more into the characters, giving them more dimension … it is a great start to a twisted labyrinth of violence where everyone has too many skeletons in their closets. The writer gives us a cat and mouse serial killer universe that leaves you doubting yourself and guessing at who it is.
I loved that the story was told from multiple characters’ point of view as it added dimension and layers. I have to warn you that it is very graphic so it is not for faint at heart! I will forge on to the next book in the series!

Across From You by Amabel Daniels – Review by Angela Hayes.

Across From YouAcross From You by Amabel Daniels
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Across From You is a hilarious romantic comedy by Amabel Daniels. It has humour, misadventures, funny banter and antics, a sprinkle of drama, and a lot of fun.
Ms. Daniels is on my ‘must read author’s list’. So, when I saw this book, I didn’t hesitate, grabbed myself a copy and dove right in. Compared to her other books that I’ve read, this one seemed a little slower to get going, but then the pace picked up a few chapters in and the story took off from there and flowed much better. From that moment on, I was along for the ride, laughing out loud at what was happening. I really enjoyed getting to know these wonderful characters, as Ms. Daniels creates interesting and well-developed individuals that are so easy to like.
Lexi Regan swore off men after getting dumped via social media and having the post go viral. She doesn’t like being in that kind of spotlight and is determined to take a break from the dating scene. When her best friend Carly wants to drag her out to an art class, Lexi really couldn’t be bothered, but goes anyway just to shut her up. Then she discovers that it’s a ‘life drawing’ class with a live model. She wasn’t expecting that, let along the hunky model who walks in and takes a pose. She can feel his eyes on her constantly and sees the smirk that he tries to hide. That just confirms it that men are all blockheads!
Just when she thinks the worst may be behind her, she finds on the weekend after her art class, that Mr. Hunky Model is also part of the bridal party in her cousins wedding. And what happens next makes for quite a hilarious romp.
An entertaining and light-hearted read.

Thank you, Ms. Daniels!

I enjoyed reading this book, from the moment I started reading I was drawn into a world of fantasy, magic, action, and romance. I couldn’t put it down till I had read every page. I really liked the twists and turns on this version of the Legend of King Arthur. I think the Reverse Harem part of the story was written very well. The heroin Fionna is an awesome character, she is strong, and independent and I loved her. This is a must read to find out what sort of twists and turns there are in this particular story, but I will tell you that this is an exceptionally well written story that kept me captivated throughout. I highly recommend this book.

The Nearness of You by KG Fletcher – Review by Ashleigh Harrington

The Nearness of YouThe Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Nearness of You by KG Fletcher is a standalone contemporary romance that will pull you in from page one and not let go until well passed the last. Following the story of Lauren Rose and David Randall. Lauren is such a strong character, her independence and ability to overcome adversity really draws you in. When singing at her regular gig in the St. Regis Hotel, she gets to see allot of high-profile guests, but none really caught her eye until she was courted by a British supermodel after her late show. While Randall and Rose come from two completely different worlds, this seems to draw them together. While things heat up behind doors, an attraction that they can’t deny builds around them. The more time they spend together, the end of their romance seems harder to believe. When life intrudes with David’s assistant, Lauren will have to find a way to work to show this woman that she loves David for more than his work. Will this woman be the reason these two love birds can’t find happiness? Can David rise above those around him to go for the girl that stole his heart with her voice? Fletcher made this story such a great read, pulling her readers in from the get go and creating an overall amazing experience. If you are looking for an author that will sweep you away with her writing than KG Fletcher is one that you need to pick this story up. I can’t wait to see where KG Fletcher takes us next.

The Nearness of YouThe Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed the “Southern Promises” series written by this author so I was looking forward to getting comfortable and opening this book.

This is a book that fulfills many girls dreams. The “what if I meet that famous person, would I be able to handle myself? Be true to myself?” This story explores that theme.

The main character is a strong woman who, while not ashamed of her situation, doesn’t downplay it or use it to her advantage when talking to someone of means. She holds true to her values and doesn’t mold herself to what she thinks she should be. A nice change of pace was how nice the lead male is. Sure he’s got a great accent, is smoking hot, has a good head on his shoulders – he’s also kind and nice. They have a meet cute and the story goes on from there.

The characters are quickly developed and have all the earmarks of a classic tale. The story flows well from beginning to end and I was able to stay totally comfortable while reading this quick tale.

I recommend this book and this author.

Mouse Trapped (Satan’s Devils MC #9) by Manda Mellett – Review by Maura Harper

Mouse Trapped: Satan's Devils MC #9Mouse Trapped: Satan’s Devils MC #9 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

MOUSE TRAPPED is the 9th book in The Satan’s Devil MC Series. I’ve only read a few of the others and was able to settle right into this book, so it can absolutely be read as a stand-alone.

I would like to review this book from a slightly different perspective. Sure it’s a story involving a motorcycle club, a computer geek and a woman who needs help. That stuff is pretty standard in MC books. What’s unique about this book is the WAY it’s told. It is not the cookie cutter “pretty white girl meets hot alpha white male and everyone lives happily ever after”. This is a story that takes a look at the overlooked in “romance” books (gosh I’m using a lot of italics tonight). This story talks about immigration rights and multi-racial stereotypes and discrimination. It shows us how not everything is as we want it to be or we think it to be. It took a non-partisan look at how the US really is – and that’s a scary place to some. This is a book that makes me think about others besides myself. Opens my eyes to topics that I am currently being distracted from by the use of ridiculous tweets. This is still a real problem and it reminded me that I have pay better attention to what else is going on around me.

Having said all of the above, MOUSE TRAPPED is also a story that allowed me escape into a book. It is a well written story that gives us a glimpse at characters we’ve read in other stories in this series and gives us a deeper look at Mouse (it’s about time he got his story told) and what it’s like to not fit in ANYWHERE. The story flows well from beginning to end and I would recommend it. Also the cover model is HOT, so there’s that 😉

Four Stars

Have you ever just felt like you knew that someone was your forever but everything kept pointing the other way? That no matter how you feel that path wasn’t laid out for you to follow? I felt that while reading this story. I also felt it multiple times in my life. David felt phony to me and I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. Their whole first encounter felt planned. He dies have some redeeming qualities that make up for that first impression. He is HOT, loyal, loving, compassionate and honest. I felt like he would do absolutely do anything for Lauren. The author wrote an interesting story but it lacked a steady flow. I felt like it was a little bumpy while transitioning from one speaker to the next. I didn’t feel like I truly learned who the characters are and how they grew through the story. It was a very unrealistic story. Overall though I would read it because David is HOT and what they have is innocent and pure.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Nearness of You is a novel by K.G. Fletcher. This is my second novel by this author.

A chance encounter makes way for possible love and opportunities.

When Lounge Singer Lauren meets Super model David Randle she is drawn to his good looks. David invites Lauren to his sister’s wedding but there is a spark between the two. Bonding over music, fashion and life experiences which bring them closer together.

But not all in happy for the new couple but David’s assistant wants nothing more than to tear the new found love apart.

I really enjoyed this novel and the cover and premise just pulled me in.

I enjoyed Lauren’s ambitions to make it into show business one day but it was nice to see that she was comfortable where her life was. Lauren was really likable and related character and her romance with David felt natural instead of forced.

I really like David. He was such a sweet character. With all the ups and downs the couple went through, it was sweet roller coaster of me eagerly turning the pages to see what would happen next.

For anyone in the mood for a quick but enjoyable romance, I recommend this novel.

My Hidden Life written by Necie Navone and I was awesome I loved the characters especially Alessandra aka Aless she was one fantastic teenager with the world on her shoulders. The characters are well written and their quirkiness and banter was great. The plot is great it has danger, intimidation, fights, and a very protective family.
Alessandra, is the Princess of the Canzano crime Family, she was introduced to the dangers of her family’s world at the young age of six when a rival family left her bleeding and scared on her birthday.

She has to be better than any man around her. She’s the Family future. Can she handle the family and all that it entails?
Let’s, watch Alessandra in Part One of My Life series as she trains to be the heir to the Canzano Family the way her Capo her father wants. A life that she must hide from even her closest friends and family.
I really enjoyed My Hidden Life and Alessandra and I can’t wait to read the next installment My Tragic Life….

Small Town Hero: Small Town Brides (Book 1) by Kim Koby

Small Town Hero by Kim Koby is a clean romance following Rebecca after she discovers her fiancé in bed with her best friend. She leaves and just drives until the point of exhaustion. After pulling off at a gas station to fill up and rest she wakes up 4 hours later to a car that refuses to start. After harassing her for loitering Ryan takes it upon himself to help her. After discovering that the nearest hotel is closed down for remodeling he offers to let her stay at his place in the guest room. Little does he know how much this small gesture would impact both of their lives.

I was amazed at how well Rebecca handled everything. If I were in her place I probably would have shut down and fallen into a world of despair. I loved how she was able to move past everything and even bring new joy into Ryan’s life. This beautiful novel was well written and clean. It focused mostly on n renewal but also shared how important the main characters faith was. I really enjoyed this novel and give it an easy 5-star rating.

The Nearness of You was a great 5 star read.

Lauren is singing one night at her job and she meets this handsome man. She realizes who he is instantly and is shocked he is talking to her.

David Randle is a british super model in town for his sisters wedding, there is something about Lauren that he really likes. He ends up spending some extra time with her and sends her an invite to his sisters wedding.

Moving forward as Lauren spends more time with David she gets a look into what his life is like. And of course we can’t have a great story without some issues arising. David’s assistant isn’t happy with Lauren being in David’s life. Will she cause enough issues that things won’t work out? Can they have more than just a fling?

I really liked both of these characters very much. They each had great characteristics and were loveable. And you can’t help but love a hot british man. The secondary characters added a great element to the story. Its sweet the relationship that David has with his sister, I loved it. K.G. Fletcher has once again pulled me right in with her writing and I really love the playlists that she creates as well. 1-click and get started today.

Redemption (Ash Park #5) by Meghan O’Flynn – Review by Emily Walsh

Redemption (Ash Park, #5)Redemption
ByMeghan O’Flynn
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Redemption (Ash Park #5) by Meghan O’Flynn was a heart pounding, feels invoking, raw psychological thriller that not only hooked me like the other books, but it brought me back to the first book, to that unsolved case, that’s ends with a shocking conclusion.

Coming off the emotional punch to the face from the last book, this book picks up pretty close to when books four ends. I will say before I continue, though these books can be read as standalones, they are following a connecting plot line, and time line. So I highly suggest reading the other books in this series. Especially the first book, as this one directly connects to it. You won’t get the full emotional boot kick, if you skip it. Plus, all the books in this series are freaking amazing!

I don’t even know how to review this book, it wasn’t what I was expecting, and frankly this is probably one of the best books I have read this year. But, let me be clear, to get the full effect, you got to read the other books. You got to see the darkness that’s been smothering Petrosky. His downward spiral, his ghosts, his willingness to just end it all. All of that, from those books, everything leads up to this one. This book will shock you, wreck you and, you will not see the ending coming. I was second guessing everything, and it was, wow.. just wow.

I really hope this isn’t the end of the series, I feel like there needs to be one more, just one more to close it out fully. But if this is the last book, then I have to say, that Meghan O’Flynn has done this series justice and ended it just as strong as it was started. Every book was strong, and that consistency of high level writing is what separates this series, this book, from others like it.

In saying that, please, please, take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval that this book is not only a must read, it’s a classic in the making. It will break your emotions, have you struggling to keep it together, and you will shed some tears. This book, this series, is on a whole other level, and is worth every bit of praise it has received.

Happy Reading

5 Stars

I was so excited to read this book after finishing The Only One, we got a glimpse of Aless at the end of that book but this story starts when she was a young girl, the daughter of the head of a crime family who wants to shape her into the one that takes over the family when she gets older and marries whoever it is her father decides she will marry.

She’s had to learn to defend herself at a very young age and as time goes by she learns a few things about her family and is closest to her Uncle Louie who has swore on his life he will keep her safe. She has been named the princess of the family and as time goes by the sense of family and security starts wavering and she knows she might just have to take her future into her own hands.

I loved learning how her and Grayson met and the connection the two shared…I sincerely love this authors writing style, I enjoyed every word and can not wait to read the next in Aless’s story and see what happens with her future.

I highly recommend this story as well as the first in the Brothers of Camelot, I can already tell this whole series is going to be one that I’ll want to reread in the future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Our Unexpected Hope is an amazing and heart-warming contemporary romance by Michelle Sullivan. It is not my first encounter with this writer and as I absolutely loved her Sunset after the Storm, I knew I had to pick up Our Unexpected Hope. I thought that I knew what to expect but that was not the case … she went beyond anything I had imagined and the ending … you leave me in awe.
Our Unexpected Hope is the story of Quinn and Noah … the story batters at you, it takes you to highs and then drops you to lows and you bawl your eyes out and you sigh in content and you feel, so much, that at times you feel that you cannot breathe …
Quinn is the daughter of Dez and Karalyn (apparently their story was told in ‘Our Next Chapter’ so I need to go and pick that one up next!) and Noah has had no one in his corner, no one loving him … They are a great couple and you simply cannot do less than root for them … I loved how realistic the story was, it had its highs and its lows and it just felt so real …
I will leave you with this: “Hope. A four-letter word I never thought would be the most important four-letter word in my life. I always had hope in my life.”

Rated 5 stars!!

Mouse,Mouse, Mouse! I have waiting for your book! I can’t believe it’s finally here! Not only that but it’s a story that easily fits you but yet surprises me. The meet-cute between you and Mariana was a perfect beginning. I love that she sees ALL sides of you.

Mouse is a Native American super problem solving geek! He has long black hair that he ties back with a strip of leather. He is half Navajo, half American. He always seemed to struggle with finding a place to fit in. Until he found the Satan’s Devils. Mouse has always been the one “behind the computer”. He is a grade A hacker. I wasn’t even sure he had “skills” like the rest of the club. But WOW! He can suit up with the rest of them!

The characters in here are written so well. I feel their pain, anguish and brotherhood. They joke, tease and protect. I loved the comment that came in church after the statement that Mouse got himself a girl. “MAC or PC?” Haha haha! Good one! Also the Great title! Thanks to Blade for voicing it at church!!

This a a wonderful addition to the Satan’s Devils series. I love how we meet these characters throughout the stories but really don’t know them until we get their story. Blade really came alive in this book. As an enforcer he comes off tough but with his brothers we see a more fun and relaxing side. I can’t wait for more!

Sailors Knot (Eastern Shore Swingers Book 4) By Phoebe Alexander. While this is book four you can definitely read them as a standalone but I urge you to read the others because this author just writes a story that sticks with you well after the last page. I keep thinking no book could be better than the one before but this author definitely proves me wrong all the time. Once again I’m immediately drawn into this amazing story. This incredible story is focused on Casey who takes readers on what I can only describe as a powerful emotional journey of past, present and second chances. From page one I knew Casey’s story would probably be my new favorite in this series and I wasn’t wrong she’s a character you can’t help but feel a connection with and watching her story unfold was truly my favorite pastime while I was reading it. As with anything amazing it unfortunately had to come to an end but I will think about this story often and be adding it to my read again list for sure. It’s well written and paced nicely with amazing characters you love. I’m giving this a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

I’ve said it once and many times, Meghan O’Flynn doesn’t disappoint her readers with her amazing way of putting words together. Words that are able to captivate the reader, and make you sit on the edge of your seat. This was my exact experience with Redemption in the Ash Park Series. It doesn’t matter that I’ve read the previous books in this series, but the intense suspense and thrill remains within the pages of the book and with the characters. I absolutely love how Meghan can develop characters that completely captivate you and don’t let you go. This was most definitely another 5 Star Book for me!!!

Mouse Trapped (Satan’s Devils MC #9) by Manda Mellett – Review by Jenni Bishop

Mouse Trapped: Satan's Devils MC #9Mouse Trapped: Satan’s Devils MC #9 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mouse Trapped (Satan’s Devils MC #9) Manda Mellett is another great book in the Satan’s Devils MC series. I have grown to love these men and their crazy women and I was so excited to read this book. I enjoy Manda’s writing and it is so easy to get lost in her words. She paints a picture that enables you to see and feel all that there is in their world. Can they overcome the fear and longing to find their HEA? I love the comradery that these men and women have formed. They are proof that family does not have to be by blood. I can not wait for more!

The Nearness Of You by K.G. Fletcher – Review by Lucy Berson

The Nearness of YouThe Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Nearness Of You by KG Fletcher. I have read many books by this author and have absolutely loved them all. This book was absolutely no different!! I fell in love with Lauren and David from the beginning. Lauren is a sultry lounge singer and she meets David who is in town for his sister’s wedding. Their chemistry is amazing until David’s assistant doesn’t really like having Lauren around so much, messing with their flow. Are they looking for the same thing, romantically or is David just looking for fun.
I loved this book and the authors writing style. I am highly recommending this book.

My Hidden Life (Brothers of Camelot Prequel) (My Life Series) by Necie Navone – Review by Heather Bass

My Hidden Life: Brothers of Camelot Prequel (My Life Series Book 1)My Hidden Life: Brothers of Camelot Prequel by Necie Navone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author but she keeps on blowing me away. This is a prequel to the Brothers of Camelot series. I love a good coming to age mobster story but this book exceeded all my expectations. You can’t help to fall in love with these characters. I absolutely love the Uncle. I could not put this book down until I was on the last page. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible story.

Alessandra was born as the Princess to the Canzano Family. She is the daughter of a very powerful man. Alessandra is to be the head of the Family when the time comes. She has to train everyday to make sure that she has skills to fight. Her Uncle dedicates his life to love her like his own. They have a bond that can never be broken. Alessandra wants to be a normal girl but she quickly realizes that she is not normal. She has to protect her family and friends. Alessandra is on a trip and she sees a handsome guy. She can’t get him out of her mind. Alessandra learns some family secrets that will change her life. Will Alessandra be able to have a normal life or will she just be her father’s puppet?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all suspense, mystery, and a little bit of romance. You will fall in love with Alessandra right from the start. She is a very strong girl that has a good heart. Alessandra loves her family and friends but she wants to be a normal girl. Her Uncle is my hero. He takes care of her like his own. He makes sure that she gets what she needs because her father is usually absent. This book will give you all of the feels from sadness to joy. I can’t wait to see what happens next to these unforgettable characters.

Small Town Hero (Small Town Brides #1) by Kim Koby – Review by Sara Oxton

Small Town Hero (Small Town Brides, #1)Small Town Hero by Kim Koby
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Small Town Hero by Kim Koby a four-star read that will restore your faith. This is the first book in the Small Town Brides series and it was sweet, and romantic in the best possible ways. This was a great opposite attract, with some added drama as well the pages just flowed from each other with a great flow. The way we see Rebecca with her tough façade (with good reason, with a bestie like hers who needs enemies) and soft gentleness that we get to see when she shows her true self. It was a great development to the story, it wasn’t just this is a scorned woman ohh she met a man and now she’s happy there was detail and structure and a trueness to the flow, It just made it that much more of a stronger story.
