Rock Me To The Top (Gracefall: Vicious Love Tour) by Victoria Zak – Review by Chrissy Spulak

Rock Me To The Top (Gracefall: Vicious Love Tour Book One)Rock Me To The Top by Victoria Zak
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rock Me to the Top: A Gracefall Rock Star Romance by Victoria Zak is such a fun read! The characters, Joe and Melody, are fantastic together. I love the chemistry they bring to this Rock and Roll romance. Best friends since childhood, they grow up to fall in love and things get steamy. Not only that, but the story is very compelling as there is more to their lives than just romance; both of them struggle with tough life decisions that may or may not include the other. This provides a tension that keeps you hooked, and secrets that could tear their love apart. This story is a great one to start at bedtime if you want to be awake to greet the birds in the morning. I couldn’t put it down. 4 out of 5 stars.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I haven’t read the rockstar trope yet but I really did love it! I loved the innocence of the story and how we got to know the thoughts in both of their heads. I think having the rockstar theme in along with the friends to lovers makes for a good heartfelt story in which you’re rooting for them the entire time!

Ashes of Aldyr (The Obscured Throne Trilogy Book 1) by Russell Archey – Review by Liz Vrchota

Ashes of AldyrAshes of Aldyr by Russell Archey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book was interesting… I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to get into with it because I have never read anything by Russell Archey prior but I was intrigued by the cover, synopsis, and a few teasers so I decided with spooky season and whatnot to give it a go. This novel definitely has the dark undertones to set the mood and really builds the worlds beautifully. I will say the skill set there is strong for Mr. Archey. I did however struggle with the layout of the storytelling overall. I just had a difficulty with the way things flowed and couldn’t get into a groove that I wanted to find and look for often with my reading. I think that is something I often fear with fantasy type novels and this one unfortunately fell into that rut for me. However, the world building, the imagination and the time obviously spent in developing the characters and the background was ever prevalent and kept me reading until the end at the least. I would say I would be interested in seeing what book two holds and seeing if things flow a bit smoother for me in reading that one. I enjoyed the darkness that kept me on my toes and intrigued as well. Not bad for a new author to me and what seems to be a newer author in general so I will give it a solid three and a half stars.

Rock Me To The Top (Gracefall: Vicious Love Tour Book One)Rock Me To The Top by Victoria Zak
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Going into this, I was hoping for a cute romance, and some spice, and I was not disappointed! Right from the start, the story is cute and you instantly have a couple to route for. I love slow burn friends to lovers trope! What I was not expecting was how the background of the characters were revealed in layers throughout the story, keeping you both intrigued and inquisitive throughout. Some parts I think could have had a bit more drama in that they were resolved too easy, while other parts I definitely did not see coming. UGH MY HEART! Joe Grace is really too good to be true, and Melody much more patient than I. Loved the story, loved the journey, and will definitely read again when I am in the mood for a cute romance.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is not your typical rockstar romance read, and I floved every moment of it. I don’t know why I haven’t read Victoria Zak before this but it won’t be my last time that is for sure. This book built all the feels and so very perfectly. I was invested in the characters from the very beginning and rooted for them to find that happily ever after the whole time. I found myself really just wanting to dive right into my kindle and hold them several times. I loved that this book did a wonderful job of telling the story without all the extras as well. Ms. Zak did a wonderful job of keeping things simple without too simple if that makes any sense. I knew where these two came from and where they were going and I knew that they belonged together no matter what. The journey of how they got there was the main focus and that my friends was the gorgeous beauty in the reading that took place in this book. I cannot wait to see what will come next as it looks like this is just the beginning of a wonderful new series from Ms. Zak!

Tenacious (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 6) by Via Mari – Review by Lianne Probert

Tenacious (Billionaire Bodyguards # 6)Tenacious by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tenacious: Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance is book number six in the Billionaire Bodyguards series by Via Mari. Having not read the rest of the series, I can confirm that this can be read as a stand-alone story, although I’m tempted to go back now and start at the beginning.

This story is about Allie and Nick. I loved both of these characters right from the start. Their chemistry bounces off the page at you, but of course, the path of true love never runs smooth. Both are strong characters and I love how Allie can hold her own against Nick’s dominance.
This story is action-packed from the beginning and never really slows. The fast pace means I read this book super quick…I needed to know what happened next.
If you’re a fan of stories with plenty of chemistry and danger, I would definitely recommend this.

This is a romance story that I enjoyed from beginning to end. This is a newer author for me and I look forward to seeing what is next for her. This is a well written story about what happens one night between two people. Now he is faced with not wanting a relationship but finds himself not being to stay away from her. She wants him but the question is how bad and is she willing to risk her heart to him. I enjoyed how connectable they are and what they brought to the story. Their chemistry and growth throughout the story is great and made the story entertaining to read. It is a fast paced story that is hard to put down. This really was a great pick up and I highly recommend it.

Red’s Peril Part 1: The making of an MC Prez (Satan’s Devils MC Vegas Chapter) by Manda Mellett – Review by Karyn Taylor

Red's Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez (Satan's Devils MC Vegas #1)Red’s Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Red’s Peril: The Making of an MC Prez is the first instalment in the Las Vegas Chapter of the Satan’s Devils MC books by Manda Mellett. Manda Mellett is one of my favourite authors and can do no wrong in my eyes, although I did want to scream at her for leaving us with a cliffhanger at the end of part one of Red’s story.
We have met Red a few times before in other Satan’s Devils MC books but now he is getting his own books and I was so excited to dive in and get to know Red. Well, I can say that I absolutely love him. He’s an amazing character and I could read about him for hours and hours.
One thing that I loved about this book was the way in which Manda Mellett slipped in loads of the major happenings from other Satan’s Devils books as we went through the years with Red. I’m in awe of how she could remember all these event and when to fit them into the story. She had an amazing talent for writing intricate but amazing storylines that you do not want to put down. Red’s Peril definitely fits into this.
I loved reading about Red’s past and see how he has become the amazing man that he is now. Now I just have to be patient and wait for the 2nd part of Red’s story as I can’t wait to see what the future hold for him and Cheryl.

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors (Book 3) AUDIO BOOK by C. L. Schneider – Review by Katie Matthews

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors (Book 3) AUDIO BOOK

By C. L. Schneider 

5 stars

 

Having read the first two books in the series I was excited to listen to the audio book of book 3 and I wasn’t disappointed! The narration was great and the story was amazing! The authors writing never fails to pull me in straight away. There were some great twists and turns in the story that constantly had me guessing about what was going to happen. I love Dahlia and Alex, they have such a great relationship, they really do work well together and I enjoy the banter that they have between them. They are very entertaining characters to listen/read about. There is just something about Dahlia that I can’t help but like, she is strong and independent and she really is just a likeable character. Although it was a long listen the tie just flew by because I was so engrossed in the story I was listening to.
Another wonderful audio book by C L Schneider and one that I highly recommend!

Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection #3) by Nikki Lynn Barrett – Review by Katie Matthews

Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection, #3)Snowfall Serenade by Nikki Lynn Barrett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Another beautifully written story from this lovely author. I absolutely adore her books, they are so easy to read, beautifully detailed and have amazing characters you just can’t help but love reading about. Snowfall Serenade was a lovely story, I was completely lost in what I was reading and the characters, Scott and Zelda, I was completely captivated by their story. I could honestly feel every emotion that the author had clearly poured into Zelda and Scott’s situation, it was so emotional to read and I definitely shed a few tears!
This is the third book in this soul connections series and I think (although it’s a tough one) it may be my favourite! I think I would also recommend that this series is read in order to fully understand everything that happens in this third book.
Snowfall Serenade Is a beautifully written book and one that I would highly recommend.

Red's Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez (Satan's Devils MC Vegas #1)Red’s Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As a fan of the Satan’s Devils I was looking forward to reading this book and I was definitely not disappointed. Red, the MC Prez of the Vegas Chapter of the Satan’s Devils, has been a character in the background of previous books in the series but now he gets his own story, and he has an intriguing backstory. The storyline had me hooked from page one, as usual, and the plot twists kept me gripped and happily turning the pages well into the night, as I literally could not put the book down. Red’s story was emotional, exciting, full of drama, suspense and of course plenty of MC detail, steamy scenes and romance, a perfect read.

The world of the Satan’s Devils is really bought to life by the descriptive narrative and as usual the characters are likeable and each have their own unique characters and backstory that bring the story to life. I was fully immersed in the story and found it an enjoyable and engaging read, which also took me on an emotional rollercoaster. Red has had a fulfilled life being a mechanic and working his way up in the Satan’s Devils, becoming the Prez, following a difficult start in life, loosing his father. However, he’s never found his ‘old lady’ to ride on the back of his bike, but he’s never forgotten one woman, Cheryl a waitress he met fifteen years ago, and he’s always wondered what life would have been like with her.

When he meets Cheryl/Cher at a casino he has hopes of starting a relationship, after all they definitely had chemistry when they first met. When he goes to her house he has a shock when it’s not her who answers the door, No SPOILERS! This is where the book ends….I’m now impatiently waiting for Part Two.

Oh my what a read! I absolutely loved every second of this story! Everything about it was just amazing – I literally didn’t put it down once I started reading. I do really enjoy rock star romance stories and I think this is probably one of the best that I have read. Joe and Melody had such a wonderful connection but their story wasn’t an easy one. The author threw in some unexpected and emotional twists and I honestly felt like I was right there with the characters are some parts of the story. I really liked that not only did the author focus on the romance side of the story but also the life of a Rockstar, this in my opinion gave the story that real feel that enable me to become so invested in Joe and Melody.
This is the first book that I have read by this author and I cannot wait to read more from her and this series again!

This is the first in a new series and it was really enjoyable. The author does an amazing job of making her characters so realistic that you can actually imagine this happening and the emotions that the characters are put through are so vivd that you feel every single one of them.

In the story we are following Joe and Melody.
Joe is a member of a band who is finally making it into the big time. He had the job he loves the only thing missing is the girl he loves. And that is Melody.

Melody and Joe have been friends since childhood. Both of them love each other however Melody had sworn never to date someone in a band. However, when Joe hires her as the bands tour manager things definately move over the line of friendship into romance between them.
They have helped each other through thick and thin however when a secret from Joe’s life gets revealed can their romance and friendship survive and will they be able to work a way for both or them to live their dream or will they have to lose each other in the process of achieving their dreams?

Love love love… I really enjoyed this book, a lot. I haven’t read anything by Via Mari before so this book is my first and it didn’t disappoint me. Via Mari brought the story to life with her details and story building. The chemistry between the two leads Nick and Allie is so steamy it leaves you wanting more and more. Even though it is the sixth book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series I will be going back to read the previous five books.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Picked up this book not having read any of the previous books in the series. I don’t feel like it mattered too much, other than I’m interested to read a little more about the backstory of the characters; so, it definitely works as a stand-alone book, but I’m guessing would be even better if read in order.

This book is a real page-turner, having me hooked from the first chapter. ER nurse Allie links up with bodyguard Nick to help find and rescue women captured in a human trafficking ring in New York City after Nick’s security firm uncovers the nefarious activities of the men behind a previous attack on Allie and her best friend, Lexi. In the midst of keeping Allie safe from harm, Nick works to break down Allie’s defenses around her heart. It’s just a matter of time, literally, as they work to rescue the trafficked women and try to survive the attacks from the men behind it all.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Last Dannon is BY FAR the best read of this series. The other two were good but this is the best! There is something so alluring about the hero with a tragic backstory. Kailen is also a badass which helps! But I can definitely see why Talaith is hesitant, which makes her even the more realistic. I have decidedly enjoyed the heroines of this author’s stories. On a side note, I would recommend reading the first two stories first as the mythology will make much more sense. Fantastic read!!

Will definitely read more from this author!

The Girl and the Gargoyle by Pauline Gruber – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

The Girl and the Gargoyle (The Girl and the Raven, #2)The Girl and the Gargoyle by Pauline Gruber
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Girl and the Gargoyle is book two in The Girl and The Raven series by Pauline Gruber. In book one, we were introduced to Lucy Walker. Lucy had just lost her mom and had moved in with her uncles in her grandmother’s old house. We were also introduced to Lucy’s neighbor Marcus and Lucy’s high School friend Dylan. Lucy made the startling discovery that she was half-witch and half-demon. She also discovered her long lost father, who turned out to be a demon.

Book two quickly picks up where book one left off and does not disappoint throughout. This is another page turner as we learn more about Lucy. Lucy is now dating Marcus who happens to be a gargoyle. Lucy’s father, Jude, is a demon. As much as Lucy wants to get to know her father, she does not love him or trust him. However, Jude forces her to spend time with him so he can train her in how to use her supernatural skills and abilities.

The love triangle between Lucy, Marcus and Dylan intensifies. Dylan is no longer trying to hide his emotions for Lucy and Lucy is finding it hard to resist the feelings that she is having for Dylan. Something that becomes even more challenging because they spend a great deal of time together training at Jude’s house. This creates tension and conflict between Lucy and Marcus. Lucy is head over heels in love with Marcus and doesn’t want to lose what she has with him, so she tries to ignore her feelings for Dylan.

Marcus, who has grown up without a mother of his own, has his life suddenly thrown into a tailspin when his long-lost mother shows up. Marcus’s mother, Camille, begs Marcus for forgiveness and tells him she wants to be part of his life. Lucy finds it difficult to believe that Camille’s intentions are true and fears that she is there to hurt Marcus. Lucy also feels that Marcus might fall for his mother’s lies and leave her. It isn’t long before Marcus finds out his long-lost father is also back. When it comes to light that his father has come to Chicago with the intention of killing Lucy’s father Jude the battle between good and evil intensifies. Lucy is conflicted and unsure who to trust and Lucy and Marcus find themselves pitted on opposite sides of the battle between good and evil. As if things aren’t bad enough, Lucy soon discovers that if Jude dies, then she will also die. Marcus vows to keep Lucy and her father’s safe no matter what. Lucy wants to help so she tries to devise a plan to save not only Jude but herself and all her loved ones. In doing so, she calls in the most unlikely of allies.

The Girl and The Gargoyle did not disappoint from start to finish. It had everything a reader could be looking for. The book contained great characters and a supernatural world. I really enjoyed reading about Lucy and how her skills and strength developed and were honed throughout. We’re also introduced to more characters while getting to know the main characters a lot better. It contained gargoyles, witches, demons, and protectors. Friendships were forged and friendships were broken. It was steeped in romance as the love triangle intensified between the three main characters. Families were reunited and families were torn apart. Alliances were formed and alliances were broken. The battle between good and evil raged on. I highly recommend book two and can’t wait to start book 3, The Girl and The Demon!

The Girl and the Raven by Pauline Gruber – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

The Girl and The RavenThe Girl and The Raven by Pauline Gruber
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

In the Girl and the Raven, we are introduced to young Lucy Walker who tragically loses her mom. Lucy finds herself uprooted from the only life she’s ever really known and moves from her small town to the big city of Chicago to live with her uncles. Lucy is hoping for a fresh start and a life free of drama and stress; something that young Lucy has never had before as she’s always had to look after her drug addicted mother.

What Lucy never expected was for her life to take a sudden turn with the discovery that she is half-witch and half-demon. Not only that but she meets the father that she never even knew existed. In Addition to discovering her long lost father, Lucy also finds herself battling for her life by a mysterious stranger. Clearly, this new life isn’t quite what Lucy expected but never one to back down from a challenge, Lucy faces each new challenge head-on.

Shortly after moving in with her uncles Lucy meets her upstairs neighbor, Marcus, and can’t help but become smitten with this good-looking lad. Lucy soon finds herself spending a lot of time with her new neighbor and finds herself falling in love with him. Marcus was friends with Lucy’s grandmother and promised her that he would look after Lucy and protect her, a vow that he takes very seriously. Young neighbor Marcus has a secret of his own that Lucy soon discovers. Lucy also finds herself quite attracted to Young Dylan, a boy she meets at her new high school. At first, Lucy thinks that Dylan is a jerk and wants nothing to do with him. As she gets to know him better, she sees another side of him that he keeps hidden from everyone. Suddenly she’s thrust into a love triangle as well as everything else that she is currently dealing with.

When Lucy discovers that her grandma’s beloved Raven is missing, she is determined to find it and save it at all costs. Lucy has always had a special connection with the beloved family pet. She finds herself teaming up with her neighbor, Marcus, and the two of them set off to save The Raven. Lucy’s life and everything she has ever known is forever changed as she is now thrust into a battle between good and evil.

The one thing that really drew me into this book was how strong the lead character Lucy is. Young Lucy has always had to be strong but now she really has to dig down and discover her true strengths. Lucy is one tough young lady who manages to persevere and overcome any challenge that comes her way. She will do anything to protect those that she loves. Lucy’s protective and loving nature combined with her strength is quite admirable.

I found this book had many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. From the very first page that just kind of leaves you in shock I was hooked. I immediately fell in love with the characters. I admired Lucy’s strength. The love triangle sucked me in, but I immediately became conflicted as to who would be the better choice for lucy, the brooding neighbor Marcus, or the high school friend Dylan. I love the supernatural aspect and the demons, gargoyles, and witches.

I found this book impossible to put down. As soon as I was able to, I moved on to book two in The Girl and The Raven series, entitled The Girl and The Gargoyle. I highly recommend this book and the others in The Girl and The Raven series by Pauline Gruber.

This one legit has to be my favorite so far. I have fallen head over heels for this entire series. They have you on the edge of your seat and just gasping for more. Nick and Allie by far have become my favorites. Nick is the protector in every sense while Allie just wants to protect herself. You have romance and suspense all combined with action and drama. It is a whirlwind. These stories can all be stand alone but do yourself a favor and read ALL of them! Previous characters make appearances and it just adds to the story.

Shadows of Doubt by Merissa Racine – Review by: Jennifer Bartholomae

Shadows of Doubt (A Crawford Mystery)Shadows of Doubt by Merissa Racine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lauren Besoner, who we met in Racine’s first book “Silent Gavel” has declined full-time employment as court reporter for the new judge, her ex-husband. She now finds herself freelance court reporting and having to hustle to make ends meet. She picks up a job that looks to provide some steady income for a while, unfortunately, it’s because her little town of Crawford, Wyoming is experiencing the biggest murder trial it has encountered in years. As Lauren works through the trial, she can’t shake the feeling that the wrong person is on trial so, as is Lauren’s nature, she starts to hunt for clues to find out who the real murderer might be. This journey leads her down a path of intrigue, suspense, and thrill that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat through the very last page.

Merissa Racine hits it out of the park again! She has done a fabulous job of creating a believable cast of characters that you immediately want to know more about and who keep you on your toes throughout the book. Her storytelling is excellent in that it is very easy to imagine what Crawford looks and feels like. She makes her main character, Lauren, so believable and relatable that you find yourself cheering for her and worrying about her throughout the book. She does a fantastic job of keeping the pace of the story and building just the right amount of suspense to keep you guessing. I enjoyed reading her first book and this one did not disappoint either. I am looking forward to seeing where she takes Lauren and the Crawford crew next.

Manda Mellett has created the MC Club called the Satan’s Devils MC. These guys are tough as nails on the outside and all are truly wonderful men. I am falling for every single one of them. We have met Red in a few of the other books and this time we are learning how he got his start with the Satan’s Devils. I am in love with him. He is amazing in his own right. He has an amazing head on his shoulders and an uncanny ability to sense when something isn’t how it should be. I can’t wait to read the second part of his story. Watching him move through the ranks of an MC has been educational, fantastic, and part heart breaking but I really want to see him find his FOREVER.

Now they can barely look one another in the eye since the pain of their loss is so overwhelming and they each blame themselves. They need to work on healing not just as a couple, but as a family. It doesn’t help that ghosts keep popping up needing help to get closure. If they can’t get attention from Scott they seek the only other person that can see them, their daughter. Now the ghost of someone in the past has turned up with a big secret and the answers he needs to be able to fully close that chapter of his life. Will Zelda and Scott be able to work through things to keep their marriage and family intact? Or has Zelda finally had enough of the ghostly interruptions?

I have enjoyed this series so much. You can feel how heavy the matter at hand is and feel the emotion leaping from the pages. The author has yet again done a great job bringing the reader into this fictional world.

5 Stars

 

Red’s Peril Part One: The Making of an MC Prez is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC Vegas series– a new spin off from the original Stan’s Devils series, by Manda Mellett. It is another superb MC romance, with drama, danger, twists, agendas, mystery, friendship, camaraderie, banter, emotion, chemistry, and sizzle.
We have met Red in previous books, so it was great that he finally got his own book(s)- and WOW, what a story he has to tell! This is definitely one of Ms. Mellett’s best yet- and that’s saying a lot, because all her books are so fantastic.
I was completely invested in the character/s and the story- my emotions strung out and flung all over the place. But Ms. Mellett isn’t finished toying with my emotions yet, as this story is set to continue in the next book. GAH!!! I need it STAT!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on it to find out what happens.
Fantastic!

Thank you, Manda Mellett!

The Elements of the Crown (The Elements of Kamdaria Book 1) by Kay L. Moody is YA fantasy book. There are actually four stories in this one book – The Ice Crown, The Wind Crown, The Dust Crown and The Fire Crown. Bargain. Hidden secrets, hidden agendas, lots of danger and lots of twists are just some of what you can expect in this series. The world building is done well but. You love some and love to hate some, some you wanted to hug and some you wanted to slap. There is betrayal and deception, lies and secrets and magic and mayhem. The plot is well written and the suspense and intrigue keep you turning pages but it is over quickly as they are very short novellas. Kay has given us an exciting new world and takes us on a journey.
Talise finds herself in a world in which you have to fight for what you want. It is a little emotional and will make your heartache at times but I loved Talise’s vulnerability but also her strength and fiery determination. Talise is only seven years old when she is to perform before strangers. Her mother wants her to have a good life and the only way to do that is to prove her worth at the Academy. Coming from the Storm, a place where no one wants to live, a place where you waste away and die in the wasteland where nothing grows.

Rock Me To The Top (Gracefall: Vicious Love Tour) by Victoria Zak – Review by Megan Brasington

Rock Me To The Top (Gracefall: Vicious Love Tour Book One)Rock Me To The Top by Victoria Zak
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I know I’m not the only one who fantasizes about being a rock star’s friend and low-key girlfriend. I’ve always had a thing for those who play in bands and something about a man who plays in a rock band… sign me up and Joe is no exception. I’m a sucker for the play on music and how everything comes down to being musically related down to the face that melody’s dad taught Joe what he knows. I myself have married my best friend after years of friendship I get it and the story really moved me. I would have loved to read more of their “friendship” Interactions before they got together but I sure ain’t complaining. I really did enjoy this book and it took me only a day to finish it as I REALLY wanted to know how everyone ended up.

Red’s Peril Part 1: The making of an MC Prez (Satan’s Devils MC Vegas Chapter) by Manda Mellett – Review by Betsy Melano

Red's Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez (Satan's Devils MC Vegas #1)Red’s Peril Part 1: The Making of an MC Prez by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Red’s Peril Part 1: The Making of a MC Prez by Manda Mellett is another awesome MC book by the author. I always look for her books and keep an eye out for the next one. Red was dealt a difficult blow in high school when his father was in an accident and now needed round the clock care for more years than expected. After his father’s funeral Red quickly decides it’s time for him to find himself. After traveling more than half way across the United States, he ends up in Tuscan, Arizona. When he meets some Satan’s Devils while searching for a job as a mechanic, Red is pulled along to meet the MC President with a potential job and future membership.
The story of Red’s journey and fining his place isn’t over. Ms. Mellett, thank you for another glimpse into the Satan Devils chapters and specifically Red’s life changing journey.
