This is the 8th book in this series and it just keeps getting better. I love the sexy alpha and the sassy heroine who doesn’t back down trope, along with the electric chemistry. Sardinia is the Master of his island and rules things well, but it’s discovered that the rogues have managed to infiltrate his domain without his notice. Madria is the daughter of the club owner, the shifters attempt to infiltrate and she also has the gift of sight. She is not a fan of Sardinia, but when fate throws them together, they have to survive not only the shifters, witches, and rogues, but a centuries old secret. I love how well the story line moves along through each book, we keep getting closer to the final showdown. The author has done an amazing job of creating standalone books that fit into a storyline that keeps moving through seamlessly. If you like steamy paranormal romance with a danger, intrigue, and twists, this is a great book and series to check out.

This was a heartwarming and inspiring read which had me captivated throughout. Set in Durango, Colorado, fifty year old Sue Cleary worries that she’s lost her mojo having left behind her career as a high powered forensic accountant to raise her four boys. Now her sons have left home and with a touch of ‘empty nest syndrome’, Sue is bored. When she discovers that her beautiful town and its idyllic community is about to be destroyed by the plans of a New York developer, she is determined to defend her picturesque hometown. In order to stop it from becoming a tasteless tourist trap Sue goes about recruiting an environmental attorney and even gets her tech-savvy son to help with podcasting. However, it turns into the fight of her life as she confronts corrupt politicians and a conniving businessman, whilst contending with online trolls and unexpected betrayals. As Sue regains her passion and her mojo she becomes her hometowns champion as she stands up for a good cause, and realises the strength of her friendships. This was a wonderfully written novel with a great main character who is both likeable and relatable, the smart and feisty Sue with her inspirational personality, and I love that she’s a ‘later in life’ heroine as this is rare in novels. The descriptive narrative brought the setting vividly to life and I felt fully immersed in the storyline. This was an enjoyable and engaging read, and one which I definitely recommend.

It’s a no brainer when I see a new book by DM as I love, love, love her books. She is one of the Queens of being able to write epic dark MC stories very well. Fractured Hearts-Prospect is the seventh engrossing book in the amazing Grimm Wolves MC series. D.M. combines paranormal and MCs to tempt and delight one into the fold. The characters from previous books cross over in the books and it’s good to catch up with them. They are well written and easy to connect with. The chemistry between the two main characters is undeniable, the chemistry is off the charts. Dingo hides so much behind the fun-loving persona. He will do anything to prove himself worthy to the club and his brothers in arms. Celee is on the run. She needs protection from the most heinous villains around and Dingo and the Grimm Wolves MC are the ones she has stumbled upon. The story was fast paced and a quick read but was packed with everything you could want and that left me with wanting more. It also has all the feels, but it also had me laughing at times with the comradery and banter of this crazy family. It is raw and gritty and broke my heart. It is full of pain, suffering, drama, angst, tension, suspense and sorrow, heartbreak, and crushed and tormented souls. I have said it before, but I will say it again, I love that these men who protect their women, their families, their friends, their fellow brothers. They ride free, live hard and love with their whole being and protect fiercely. There is so much left for the Grimm Wolves MC, and I can’t wait. If you love a story with a supernatural twist, then D.M. is your go to girl.

Earl – Review by Jenni Bishop
An enjoyable and engaging paranormal romance which had me hooked throughout. For mountain lion shifters fate exists and comes in the form of the mating call, which brings two people together who are perfect soul mates. Laramie and Trigger feel the mating call as soon as they meet, however Laramie has always had a sense of responsibility and has put her dreams aside to help her family and Trigger has been raised among humans. Trigger is determined to help the shifter community that Laramie is part of at Long Claw. There is a reason why mates should claim each other straight away, and that’s to avoid the mating haze, a fog that consumes the couple until they are carrying each other’s mark. The mating haze hits Laramie and Trigger, clouding Laramie from the truth behind her new mates arrival in the pack. As secrets are revealed and truths told the couple’s new relationship is tested and for Laramie it’s too reminiscent of what happened to her Mum. The descriptive narrative brings the setting of Long Claw vividly to life along with the members of the Pride, which made me feel immersed in the story. I loved Laramie and Trigger and their chemistry really came across in the narrative. I look forward to other books in this series.

An enjoyable and entertaining historical adventure set in 1897, just on the cusp of the 20th Century. We are introduced to a intrepid reporter for the Chicago Tribune, Mark Sutherland, who lives an adventurous life travelling and reporting on the odd and inexplicable and anything new and novel. Mark wants to go to Yukon and witness the gold rush, having read all about the 1849 California gold rush. However, he’s not the only one with gold rush fever, and as he travels to Yukon he meets new friends along the way, all of whom have their own reasons for undertaking the journey. As he makes his way north, Mark encounters many adventures and there is even some romance. This was a real page turner which kept me hooked throughout. The descriptive narrative brought both the characters and the setting to life, making me feel immersed in the story. The added historical details also transported me back in time, and I felt that I was travelling alongside Mark and experiences the gold rush firsthand. I look forward to going on another adventure with Mark Sutherland soon!

I just love all of this author’s books. I got into MC romances thanks to this author. The characters are well written and the stories always manage to meld into one another seamlessly. I really find I am drawn into the books and cannot put them down. I love the chemistry between the main characters. Their past lives always help to create the story and bring a deeper sense of knowing. The drama is really well balanced with romance. I also like how the storylines are not predictable and really grab the reader and keep you focused on them. This author has such a great world she has built and I look forward to reading more from her as well as this series and all her other series.
This was a really refreshing book to read and something a little different than I normally would choose to read. The way in which the book is written really did make me connect with the main character Sue. She was such an uplifting and positive character; it showed her embracing new times in her life and the things that were important to her. I loved the connection she had and friendships she had with the other characters that appeared in the book. I think there are probably themes in this book that people can definitely relate to. The author made the characters in this book really accessible and likeable, some more than other though to be fair! I am really looking forward to reding more from this author in the future.
This book is a great book by an fantastic author and a unique take on a shifter story. It is unusual for a book like this to bring something new to the table and yet this author managed it with such ease. I was pulled into this story so easily and I loved watching how it all unfolded. I really enjoyed learning about the characters in this book too. They were intriguing and engaging right from the word go. I enjoyed watching their relationship develop as the book went on and always hoped that they would find their way. This is a well written and exciting story and it is definitely worth the read.
This book is yet another fantastic addition to the series and is possible my favourite one so far. It was just as dark and intense as the others I have read and yet this one also had a lighter tone running throughout it. For me, this added a different level to the book that the others didn’t have. The characters were so well matched too. They are exactly what the other needed, even if at times that wasn’t clear. It was so easy to become invested in their story and want the best for them. This author is one that I never hesitate to pick up a new book by because they are always so good. This book is the perfect example of that and I would urge everyone to read this series.

I really enjoyed Hannah and Doyle’s story. The author wove an exciting and intriguing romantic suspense story and one that I as fully invested in the whole way through. I liked the characters; they were both likeable and relatable. Hannah’s character came across well and I could feel her emotions regarding the loss of her brother, it was a loss she felt deeply and the author got this across really well. I liked Doyle and I have to be honest I could feel the attraction between the two of them straight away, he was determined to keep Hannah safe from her stalker. A great read that will definitely keep your attention the whole way through! I’m looking forward to reading more from this series!

This is part of the Long Claw Pride series. I have read previous books by this author and have enjoyed them all and this one was just as good. I love a paranormal romance where the Shifter mates are protective and possessive, where neither one can fight against what they are feeling the connection is that powerful. However this is a mated story with a twist. There is a saying that love in blind and the same is true in the Shifter world except its called the Mating Haze. When Laramie Mackenzie meets Trigger Bain the Mating call is activated and they realise they are meant to be mates. Laramie is the sensible one of the pack so it is unlike her to just lose her mind over a guy. However that is what she is doing, not only does she accept her mate she also sees an opportunity to fulfil her dreams when Triggers Step-father offers the opportunity to improve their town, make it more profitable and allow Laramie the chance of having her own store. But when things are too good to be true they normally are this isn’t going to be the perfect dream she is expecting.
Trigger is a Shifter who has grown up in the human world. He has very little experience within a pack and only knows what he has learnt from his mother. He follows his step-father around helping him improve the lives of shifters or so he is told. He trusts his step-father. After everything he’s done raising him why would he lie to him? When Trigger’s step father realises his fated mate is part of the Long Claw pack he knows he can use this to his advantage. As Trigger and Laramine try to get used to their bond and learn more about each other they also need to uncover secrets and lies which could destroy their future before it even begins.
This story is action packed with twists and turns that will keep you guessing. There are characters you will love and characters you just don’t trust. The author does an incredible job of writing that allows the reader to picture the scenes in vivid detail as if they are there seeing it with their own eyes.
I am a huge fan of this author and have read every single installment of her Notebook Mysteries series. I had very high expectations for this book before picking it up, and I am excited to report that it DID. NOT. DISAPPOINT. Mark Sutherland’s adventures as a reporter in the late 1800s are captivating and intriguing, and the author’s talent for capturing and describing the given time period is evident. This is an excellent read for history buffs, as well as mystery chasers, and will absorb you from start to finish. What added an even deeper appreciation for me was the connection to the main character in the Notebook Mysteries series, Emma. This book can be read by itself, though, so if you have not yet indulged in that series, no worries…although, I highly recommend doing so. As with everything this author writes, if I could give it more than five stars, I totally would.

This book is part of The Talisman series but it is a prequel. I have loved every book in the paranormal romance series and this one is just as amazing. The author does an amazing job with the story creating a world of.good vs evil, as well as a fated mate storyline too. One thing I really love is that the main characters complement each other. We have a warrior and a talisman but both are equalling strong and equally needed if they are to succeed and defeat the evil against them.
This is Riley and Lynnette’s story. Both of them have just reached the age of 21 so neither of them expect to find their mate so soon but the gods have other plans when they bring them together. Riley is already a skilled warrior and even though Lynnette doesn’t know what her skill is or how it will aid Riley there is no denying their connection and love for each other. When they go away to start bonding and try and figure out Lynnette’s skill they are attacked. What follows is an adventure as Lynnette figures out what role she is to play by being at Riley’s side and we learn just how strong their bond is when it is threatened. Will they defeat the evil force against them that is trying to stop their bonding? Or will they prove just how strong they are when a warrior finds his Tailsman.

This book is probably one of the most beautifully written that I have read in a very long time. The author does warn of the content in the story but ye whilst I cried a lot it was also dealt with so sensitively and unfortunately it is something we all have to go through. The way the author wrote about certain things in the books she really did make me feel what the characters were feeling. I could feel that joy, happiness, kindness and also that deep grief, sadness and hurting of all of the characters in the story. The dual point of view was great I really did feel I was able to connect with both Hope and Adam and truly understand how they were both feeling. It’s hard to write this review without giving away too much of the storyline and it is too beautifully written to be spoilt! I honestly cannot recommend this book enough; it is truly a beautifully written story!

I’ve read a few books by this author now so when I saw this new release from her I was really excited to start reading and it was as I expected a really great read. It was entertaining from beginning to end and the authors wonderful descriptive writing felt like I was right there in year 1897! The genre isn’t my usual but I really like the historical accuracy that the author uses in her writing, you can tell that she clearly researches the time periods that she sets her stories in. I really liked Mark, he was a great lead character to follow. There were some great twists and turns in the story too. I’m definitely looking to reading more from this author again!

This is not my first book by this author but one of my favorites. I enjoy this author’s writing style that makes her stories pop. Engaging stories that have lovable characters that add so much to the story. This is a well written story where the author used details to make the story feel realistic. I had no problem picturing myself with these characters. I enjoyed watching their growth and chemistry throughout the story. They pull you into their world with ease and keep you there until the end. A fast paced story that is full of romance and hard to put down. This is a great story that I enjoyed very much. I highly recommend this book
This is the seventh book in this series which I highly suggest you read the previous books in this series as they are just as amazing. I enjoy this author’s writing style that makes her stories come to life. This is a well written story about second chances and forgiveness. I enjoyed how strong and relatable the characters are. They have great chemistry and growth throughout which just added to the story. They pull you into the story and have me coming back for more. A fast paced story that is hard to put down. A must read story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this amazing story.

This is book 7 in a series. New characters, a new situation but still a continuation from the other stories in this series.
Earl has a special way of writing that makes you feel as if you are a part of the story you are reading. I love chance encounters, like everything happens for a reason. We may never know what fate has planned but it will all work out in the end.
These characters are funny, determined and brave. They each have their flaws, but no one, even fictional characters, are perfect. Perfectly imperfect…well actually Fractured.
Can’t wait to read about the rest of the brothers in this club!

Logan wants to enjoy a peaceful vacation with her family because they have not done so but in true Logan fashion, she ends up entwined in a murder down at the harbor.

Her past also comes up to haunt her in this book and can she come up to face it when she has no desire to do so? This book was a page turner and kept the reader guessing until the final chapters. Well written as always.

Fate exists and it comes to every mountain lion shifter in the form of the mating call. This call brings two people together who are perfect for one another in every single way. And some are more ready for it than others.
Laramie Mackenzie has always had a sense of responsibility when it comes to helping out her family. Pushing her own dream onto the back burner where it’s left to simmer, she’s more than ready when her call comes, bringing with it a mate who just might hold the key to her future.
Trigger Bain is a mountain lion shifter raised among humans. He has no idea what life should be like aside from what the mating call is all about. He’s worked his entire adult life helping mountain lion shifter communities become the best they can and is just as determined to help Long Claw, the home of his mate.
Mates should claim one another right away to avoid the mating haze. A fog that can consume the couple, taking possession of them until they are carrying each other’s mark and it doesn’t matter when and where it hits. But there’s something underlying with Trigger’s arrival that the haze does well to cloud from Laramie’s eyes. Truths will be learned, secrets revealed, and their fledgling relationship tested to a limit Laramie hoped would never happen to her like it did her mom.
In the quiet wintery setting of Long Claw lives a pride of wild and crazy individuals and you just never know what any of them will get up to.
Born and raised in Northern Wyoming. Brooke spent a great deal of her childhood and even well into her adulthood in her imagination and creating different stories. With an overactive imagination life has been truly entertaining.
A mother of two wild and reckless boys and a wife; Brooke keeps busy year round doing things with her pups and family. When she isn’t writing, can usually be spotted walking somewhere in town, at the library with her youngest, or up in the mountains four-wheeling, hiking, fishing, and some hunting. A notebook and camera are never far from her side when she is out on her adventures with her family.
She loves hearing from readers and anyone who feels like talking. Feel free to pay her a visit whenever.
Laughter is the best medicine. I make sure to always deliver the fun and crazy while hiding my pain behind it. It’s who I am and what I do. I also work my butt off for the Grimm Wolves MC brothers, trying to prove myself as more than just a prospect. But even the toughest of the tough need to let loose every now and then. I know that more than anyone after the world of hurt I’ve experienced.
CELEE
A chance encounter in a chat room just may be the saving grace I’ve needed all along. My father’s enemies are closing in, and my time just might be running out. Thank God Dingo and his brothers will do anything to keep me safe–even if it means going up against the most vile of criminals around. But the more Dingo tries to protect me, the more I know he’s hurting too.
Can two fractured hearts find a way to heal together?

The trigger warnings at the start of the book were extremely helpful and let me know what to expect. Wow! Just wow! This book was a fantastic read! Cahki is someone I don’t want to meet in a dark alleyway if I was on her bad side, but she and I would be fast friends. She does not hold herself back and holds herself to that standard. It was a little frustrating at some parts, where better communication would’ve resolved some misunderstandings, but overall I really did like her character. Sung-Juin was not was I was expecting. With his background I was expecting a woe is me, or a jaded closed off person. He did have his moments, but I thought he was a well balanced character. This book had a little bit of everything for me. Action, romance, suspense, and everything in-between. Also I gotta say this, the cover is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I seriously can’t wait to read more books by this author. I’m definitely going to buying a physical copy of this book to keep on my shelves!

Valerie Davisson is quickly becoming a new favorite author of mine. Her Logan McKenna Series is full of mystery, drama, intrigue, and so many twists and turns. The fifth book in the series, Safe Harbor, checks all those boxes and more. The reader finds out more about Logan’s family and her past, which collides with her present day and her connection to a murder, as a suspect. The world building in this series, and especially this book, is amazing! I felt like I was right there beside the family, fishing off the Oregon coast or walking along the beach. Valerie Davisson provides such vivid details in her writing and has also created characters that the reader can’t help but connect with. I feel like Logan McKenna could be a friend of mine in real life. The characters are so realistically flawed and believable. I can’t wait to see where the next Logan McKenna Thriller takes me!

Riley is a single mom trying to get her career back on track after losing everything four years ago. Well, she lost everything except for her adorable son, Dylan. Mitch is part of the Miller clan and he’s always such a sourpuss, or in Dylan’s words, always yelling! When Riley and Mitch meet up at yet another Miller family wedding, Mitch saves Riley from having to dance with the crazy drunk party crasher. There is an electricity from the first touch and, while they both try to deny their feelings at first, they really can’t. Riley is dead set on getting into another relationship but then Dylan starts asking questions.
This was a much more enjoyable book for me than the previous one in this series. It wasn’t horrible and I was probably just having an “off-reading day”. I loved how the story progressed but Dylan is my favorite character in this story!!! Will he get his Christmas wish?

The more books I read in the Logan McKenna Series, the more hooked I get! The fourth book, Vanishing Day, finds our heroine/musician/amateur sleuth, Logan McKenna, investigating the brutal attack of her neighbor. I love that Valerie Davisson not only captures the mystery and drama in her stories, but also touches on sensitive subjects; this book involves spousal abuse and the effects, physically and mentally, of that abuse. This book had me captivated and on the edge of my seat till the very end. The same wonderfully realistic characters return and the vivid detailing and creative, original world building is front and center in this dramatic, edge-of-your-seat thriller. Once again, Vanishing Day, as well as the other books in the series, can be read as a standalone, but I recommend reading them in order to fully appreciate the connection between the books.

Cruel Love by Isla Vaughn is the sixth book in the Hidden Valley Elite Series. It picks up at the end of Cruel Hate as this is Aspen and Phoenix’s Duet. This enemies-to-lovers story is a page turner you will not want to put down. When an unexpected accident sends all their lives spiraling out of control, will Aspen and Phoenix make it or will their rocky relationship crumble under the pressure. After the accident that could have taken their lives, Phoenix is missing the last five years of memories. Aspen is carrying his baby and unsure how to handle this less guarded and kinder Phoenix. I don’t want to spoil anything but you will absolutely bot put this book down. Isla Vaughn is a weaver of webs and a breaker of hearts. We love you for it. 5 out 5 Stars!

I did enjoy this book and do recommend it to parents who have young children. It continues the adventure of Shirl and Eee-ahh. Children who enjoy playing at space travel. This author writes really fun stories and I think many children would enjoy it.
