This book was a nice, pleasant surprise and out of my normal comfort zone in my reading, but I was totally intrigued by the cover so I decided to dive right in.
This military sci-fi we get to know Rande “Vandal” VanDelle and he is part of the Chevaliers and works on the MBUs or large tanks. When Vandal decides to take an MBU out and about on patrol….he comes under attack. Battling back and trying to stay alive Vandal has choices to be made…….will Vandal join the continuing fight?
Choices, action, danger and intrigue all wrapped up in this really good story!
Can I add I love the fact the author added a glossary of terms that helped me as well with some of the terminology and that is a plus for me.

How are we book 5 in this series already? I have to say this is fast becoming one of my favourite series – these Vampires are just – well to be honest I don’t even know how to describe them. Each time I read the next book in the series I say it was my favourite until I read the next one that is! Master Catteneo – what a delicious vampire he is! I could have read about him all day and night! I love how the author has had a unique story for all of these vampires, each one different yet equally as amazing! Her writing is just superb and she always has me hanging off every turn of the page waiting to see just what is going to happen next, This book could be read as a standalone but I would HIGHLY recommend starting at the very beginning – you won’t be disappointed!!

Who doesn’t love a forbidden romance – I know I do and I absolutely loved this one!! It was so well written it really was an absolute pleasure to read. The story flowed so well I couldn’t put it down, I needed to keep turning those pages to find out what was going to happen between Devlin and Evelyn! They were fantastic characters to read about – such passion and chemistry between them – I loved them both! I loved that apart from the obvious forbidden relationship part that there was so much more to this story – an absolutely wonderful read and one that I 100% recommend!!

I really enjoyed this cosy mystery. It was action packed and full of mystery but also with a fantasy twist which I loved. This author is a new author to me but I really enjoyed it and I can’t wait to read more. The characters were really well written and I loved how determined Bob is to prove his stories and creatures of make believe really exist.
Bob is a journalist and he plans to prove to everyone that creatures of fiction truelly exist. However his article isn’t want his publisher wants so he finds himself out of a job. When a surprising job offer shows up he takes it. What does he have to lose after all? So Bob find himself on the hunt for a missing Gnome but what he finds during his investigation is more than anyone could ever expect. Bob’s eyes are opened to things that even he could not imagine.
What happened to the missing Gnomes? Can Bob find them? And what else will he discover along the way?
This was a really interesting book to read, it’s so out of my comfort zone but I was looking for something a little different to read and the synopsis grabbed my attention so I thought I would give it a go. I think the first thing I have to say how well the book was written, the author had great attention to detail and I actually imagined what I was reading more than I thought I would – this was a pleasant surprise. I’ve read very few science fiction books so I read this a little slower than my usual books and I was very grateful for the glossary with some of the different terms used in the story – that was really helpful for me as a reader and definitely aided my enjoyment a little more. I think this book would be a huge hit with sci-fi readers – I would definitely recommend it.

This is an intriguing book which left me rooting for the main character, Jasper, and groaning in frustration at the cliff-hanger ending as I couldn’t move straight onto the next book!
I was gripped from page one and did not want to stop reading, when at work my thoughts were with Jasper and the difficulties she faced, and I couldn’t help but theorise until I could get back to my kindle.
I really enjoyed the way Jasper was written, her response to trauma (her defences/coping mechanisms) felt very real to me and her growth in both strength and character was admirable as the book progressed. The darker events of the book were impactful but were well-balanced with Jasper’s sarcasm providing a humorous break, so it wasn’t all doom and gloom. To balance this well can be difficult but I was impressed by how well this was achieved without detracting from the emotional impact had on Jasper.
Overall, I found the storyline engaging and well-constructed and although the book is geared towards teens/young adults, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading this as an adult and can’t wait to find out what happens next!

Ice Dance is a magical fantasy written by Vik Azeem, and the first book I have read by this author. I found the main character, Hassan, immediately relatable and it locked me into the story from there. Hassan is struggling to keep his head above water between a strained relationship with his family, losing his job and his landlord wanting to evict him from his apartment. But then he meets the beautiful, nice, yet mysterious Yasmine while out at a bar to perform his stand-up comedy routine, and from there the strangeness begins.
I really enjoyed this story and all the fantasy and magical elements and how it all entwined so well together. I also loved the main characters and their develepment throughout. Yasmine is mentally strong and a total badass. Hassan is so kind and following his heart. His sense of humor, even during times of danger, always made me giggle. I would highly recommend to any fantasy lovers looking for something a little different, adventurous and fun. The author has a beautiful way with words and keeps the story interesting from beginning to end.
This was my first book by this author. I really enjoyed it! Olivia is the main character. She leaves her husband after finding out he had an affair with her best friend. Shortly after she loses her job at the restaurant that she ran. After living at her mother’s house (who is quite dramatic and needy) and in a tiny apartment, she is invited to live at her other friends house. Olivia has her eyes set on making a go of her own company, cooking for others and catering. It’s hard, it becomes her life, but while doing so she meets quite a cast of characters! If you are looking for a light hearted fun to read book, this one is it!

Degrees of Innocence: Dark Mafia Romance (Cruel Deceptions Book 1) By Via Mari 5 out of 5 stars
I always love reading any book by Via Mari, and this book did not disappoint. Follow along and learn all about Katarina Meilers and Chase Prestian. A woman who is dedicated to her job and always strives for perfection, and a man who just wants to be seen. Do you believe in love at first sight? This book slightly follows that line, where there is an immediate attraction that only grows as time goes on. But, like every love story, something goes wrong. That wrong in this book, can be Chase’s over protectiveness and Katarina strong emotions, which she is not used to having. Can they overcome their differences and each other’s flaws? Read to find out!
I love the playfulness between the two, and the joking around with each other. Let’s not forget about the steam either!
All in all, Via Mari did not fail and brought, yet another, great romance story! I cannot wait to read more in this series!

I love poetry and this collection of poems was truly fantastic. Each poem gave me something to think about as each poem was different, raw emotion and so much thought. I felt I was painted a picture of love, soul, inspiration and heart felt meaning.
A few of my favorites were “Parenting”, “Collective Creativity”, “Hate vs Love” and “Recipe for Life”.
If you enjoy wonderful poetry that really grabs you I would highly recommend this collection. This is one of my favorite and enjoyable poetry books I have ever read.

I thoroughly enjoyed this, and am looking forward to what comes next! This book has romance, magic, adventure, thrills, a few spicy bits, and a lot of paranormal!
Sin is able to see through glamour, which is rare for a human. Due to her ability, she finds herself in some pretty crazy situations.
Rad is an ancient who has worked to build his power.
When Sin and Rad meet, sparks fly, and a new kind of flame is ignited between them.
Any more and I would be giving away too much of the story, so I strongly suggest having a read!

Olivia is a young chef that enjoys cooking for people. She had everything anyone could ever want. Then she finds out her husband is cheating on her. She leaves and gets a job in a small restaurant as a bartender. She intends to save her money and open her own restaurant. This was a fun, little story that keeps you entwined in it.

“Remember what I said about the gods giving me a fighting chance? I take it back. This must be some new method of torture cooked up to break the monotony of their immortality. Let’s dangle a second chance in front of Quinnlan and then make it near impossible for him to obtain it. Wasn’t being murdered by my sister torture enough? Greedy b….. Bah! There’s no use having a pity party. It won’t change the situation. I’m just going to have to play the hand the gods dealt me. Pulling myself together, I head back to the motel to strategize. There must be some way to find a mate here. I have to believe that, or I’ll end up wasting this opportunity drowning in bitterness and sorrow. ”
“We have an eternity to explore each other after we save the day.”
The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie is a fantastic paranormal MM romance. Another feather in Ms. Valkyries cap. She has such a vivid and abundant imagination, which she uses to weave wonderfully dynamic stories, bringing us something new, each and every time. She seems to have a limitless well of imagination and inspiration just waiting for her to release into the world for us to enjoy. Ms. Valkyrie never ceases to amaze me with her highly original storylines that all manage to have their own identity, but also capture her unique touches that add a special quality to all her work. This is another cleverly woven paranormal MM romance, with second chances, vampires, wolf shifters, action, mysteriousness, agendas, chemistry, family, hope, murder, a sinister foe, emotion, humour, fun, banter, and even a haunted house. The story is set on Halloween, which adds an element of mysteriousness to the story. “Every ten years, the gods choose a paranormal being who has been unjustly killed and offers them a second chance at life. But this second chance comes with a catch, as set out by the rules imposed by the Gods. 1. You have 3 days to choose a mate. 2. You cannot use your powers to directly influence your potential mate. 3.You can only choose one person….If the potential mate rejects you then you go back to purgatory. 4. You must reveal the truth of the challenge to your potential mate.” Easy peasy, right? Well not really when you are ‘dropped off’ in the middle of nowhere with the clock ticking on your second chance. No one wants to be flung back into purgatory…. Will Quinnlan find his mate in time? Or will circumstances force Quinn to put his second chance at risk? This is definitely worth the read to find out how it all plays out in the end… I can’t wait to see what Ms. Valkyrie has in store for us next… Happy Reading…

Get ready for quite the crazy laugh out loud adventure these two are to take us on. I loved everything about this book from the characters to the storyline that flowed. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. Its definitely worth the read and I look forward to reading more from this Author.

This book was real. Many parents find themselves struggling when their kids leave home. Your kids are your reason for doing everything. This book is about finding yourself and the struggles that come with it. The growth Peggy goes through is inspirational and shows how strong women are.

Very cute children’s book about the adventures of the family cat when he goes out at night. The kids are curious about what Lucas does at night so they put a camera on him to record what he does and then they spend the story speculating what adventures Lucas goes on. I love the rhyming that Shannon has done throughout the book and the sing-songy nature it gives to the story. The illustrations are very cute and whimsical. I absolutely love the ending…very cat-like 🙂

What can I say about this beautiful book of poetry? The words and the lilt have taken me back to the 70s where psychedelics were all the rage and the music of the day inspired and ignited a fire within us! The words are raw and oftentimes harsh and cutting but it is truly the journey of one’s inner self and for that I appreciate the honesty and the frankness of his writings. With musical tributes throughout the entire book to the Beatles and Pink Floyd, the nostalgia just continues especially when he mentions vinyl! Oh, the days of pops and crackles when listening to music on vinyl! How I miss those days of youth! I think that every person who reads this wonderland of poetry will find a poem or a thought from the writer that will resonate and make him question his existence or his role on earth. Great book and so welcome to read something so fresh and far from the beaten path!!

This is the first book I’ve read by this author but it was a good read.
Peggy is approaching a new season of her life. Her kids are leaving home and she’s finding that she doesn’t really know what to do with herself. She decided to use the gym membership her kids got her, regardless of how she felt when they gifted it to her. Peggy begins to embrace her new season and realize she is more than any of the little boxes she’s placed herself into over the last several years.
I enjoyed this book. This book really captured Peggy’s emotions as she learns to embrace the changes she’s experiencing in herself and she is learning where to go from here. Truly an inspiration for anyone stuck and not sure how to move forward.

I was so excited when I saw Naomi had a new book out and couldn’t wait to get started. The Final Bite is a paranormal fantasy romance story. Her stories just keep getting better and better and like I say with each book this is my favourite so far.
Naomi’s is a talented writer where her word skills, along with her wonderful characters that she brings to life are original and delightful. Her attention to details and world building is richly vivid and easily imagined. I love that you never know what you are going to get from Naomi and her out of the norm storytelling.
I read this in one sitting as it was so good and I just could not put it down. I can’t wait to see where Naomi takes us next.
If you love good out of the norm paranormal romances then definitely check this out.

I LOVED every minute of this book! I was sucked in from the start and couldn’t leave it alone until I consumed its entirety! The chemistry between Eve and Devlin was off the charts, and all the twists and turns and unexpected things that happened kept the book exciting! I feel like a few things I somehow should have seen coming, but I definitely didn’t! I truly wish I could give this book 10 stars!

Shadow Patterns of Melt is the first book in this original sci fi action adventure series. It is a story about being determined about what you want. About wanting to live your life your way and be free to do so with the one you love, about being independent. It is an unusual story with action, time travel, wormholes, interstellar travel, and opera.
The characters are well written, strong, passionate, and likable and them along with the world that JRP has created is easily imagined.
This story is vastly different to another book Soliloquy I just finished reading by this author which shows the diversity of her writing abilities and creative mind.

Every ten years, the gods choose a paranormal being who has been unjustly killed and offers them a second chance at life. The catch? They must take a mate, and they only have three days to do it.
Oh, and they can only choose once. If the person they choose for a mate rejects them – it’s straight back to paranormal purgatory.
Fortunately for me, I, Quinnlan Trinity, am the chosen one.
Unfortunately for me, the trickster gods must have gotten into the mix because they drop me at an abandoned motel in the middle of nowheresville with three days’ worth of clothing, sans underwear, and a wad of cash. Seriously?
I’ve got two days left when I find a guy bleeding out, thanks to a suspicious group of wolf shifters. I could save him, but if I do, that means choosing him as my mate and risking rejection. Is he the one? Or, by saving him, am I dooming myself to a trip back to the afterlife?
Naomi Valkyrie, often called a Firebrand Provocateur, brings her unique Autistic perspectives and curiosities to life by weaving tales of deep connection, mystery, and romance. She is inspired by being able to spontaneously create a thought that takes on a life of its own, opening up new adventures for her readers.
The Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy realms are particular areas of interest for Naomi as they allow for the vast exploration of magic, adventure, and the impossible while creating diverse characters that her readers connect with on an emotional level.
When she isn’t attending to familial connections, Naomi loves a dark, comfy reading space surrounded by the symbolism of her spiritual archetypes and her daemon/familiars, while she sips her Starbucks tea and immerses herself in imagination.

Wonderful read for anyone who enjoys the mysterious and paranormal. Well-written, I found the author’s style different, and it makes me want to pick up another one of her books.

I really enjoyed the Notebook Mysteries Series and was so excited to see a spin off. This book did not disappoint. These books are so unique, and it makes them so much fun to read. I easily get lost in the world created by this author. I would highly recommend reading this! I loved it!
This was a great thriller. I enjoyed all of it. I could not put this book down. It hooked me from the beginning and kept me interested the entire time. Something new for me was the author notes, I enjoyed them, it made me feel like I got to know more about the author.
My kids loved this book! They always get to learn so much from all of this author’s book. Their favorite part was learning how the bird lays its eggs, which lead to conversations about lots of other animals. Highly Recommend!!!!

More than is the first book I have read by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. It is a story about finding yourself once again after a terrible tragedy and becoming a single parent and overcoming the grief. I think most woman who have kids can relate to this story in some ways.
Peggy lost her way after losing her husband. She put her life on hold to raise two young children but at times it felt like she was having a pity party always finding fault with everyone else instead of looking inwards.
On the other hand, she finally pulled herself out of herself inflicted exile and became a stronger version of what could have been all along had she seen what could be. We get to see her metamorphous from down and out and grumpy caterpillar to a learning to love life again beautiful butterfly and this is where the fun begins. There is a lot of bluffing, huffing and puffing going on but it was fun to read and the way Peggy goes about things will have you entertained.

This book kinda started slow for me. I pulled it out at work during a slow period, and at first I couldn’t really get into it. And then it sucked me in! So if you find yourselves in the review section for this book cause you’re second guessing, I’m telling you- keep going. This book sucked me in so hard and fast! It’s the perfect book to read in the evening with a cup of tea or cocoa. The ending absolutely killed me! It’s got that perfect mix of romance and adventure, I loved it so much!
