This book is less of a romance and more of a coming into yourself book. There is a romance aspect of it but most of its about the battle of your inner self. Anton and Elsa are both in love with each other but each have their vices, one acting and after a sad turn of events the other turns to drugs. Will they be able to save themselves before they ruin their love for each other? Great writing like always has an awesome storyline.

This book does deserve some trigger warnings so if your sensitive be prepared. However, this book shows how you can overcome trauma and how love can save you. This book definitely plays the heart strings in some of the worse and best ways. I was definitely crying in some parts and enjoying others if you know what I mean. All together an amazing book, I highly recommend.

Scandalously Yours is the fifth book in the Titans of Manhattan series by Anise Storm. This is another wonderful instalment in the Titan’s series. As with the others, this is a contemporary romance with an office/workplace romance aspect, taboo relationship (he’s her boss), medical romance, chemistry, sparks, sizzle, angst, agendas, danger, scandal, tension, complexity, greed, emotion, secrets, manipulation, pain, heartache, meddling ex, and finding love unexpectedly. After meeting Kristopher previously and not liking him much after finding out about the nasty part he played in Kenzie and Jonas’s story (in the last instalment), I went into this story with a bit of a heavy heart as I was convinced that I was never going to like Kris no matter what happened. Well, I admit now that I was wrong. He won me over, surprisingly- and I am so relieved that I don’t have to hate him, or this book lol. As expected from Ms. Anise, the story was quite emotional and heart-wrenching at times- I really felt for both the characters and what they were going through. There were times though that I really wanted to shake them both for their lack of communication- so frustrating. Some of the subject-matter could be considered triggers for some readers, such the toxic relationship between Kris and his ex, her emotional manipulation and blackmail- using the children as pawns in trying to control Kris and the situation (I hated her with such a passion, and would have loved to have throttled her for what she did- she was such a *&^%$@$ <@~^?). There were also some intimate scenes that made me cringe a little, as all I kept thinking was that there was a huge potential for a vaginal infection (ie: I’m not against anal play, but going from backdoor to frontdoor and back again was a no from me lol… I kept thinking noooooo. But that is just my personal opinion, where I learned that you never go from the back door to the front door, as it is very unhygienic and can lead to serious infection in the lady garden- but again, that’s just my opinion. If you don’t mind then that’s fine too)… I can’t wait for the Titans of Chicago series to arrive- so excited to see what those books will hold! Happy reading!

This is a first read for me by R. L. Dunn and I was not disappointed! In this first book in the Blood Obsession series, the author creates totally different, but coexisting worlds. I was drawn in from the very first chapter and couldn’t put this book down. Ritual Obsession is filled with twists and turns, suspense, romance, drama, and everything in between. The connection between the characters is so realistic and each character is so unique that I couldn’t help but want to be friends with some of them! Dunn creates not only one but two strong, female characters that know how to hold their own in the male dominated world of the NYPD. With strong character development, great world building, and action, romance, and suspense in abundance, Ritual Obsession is not a book to miss.

This was a great 5 star read. I really liked Phillip and Anna’s story. Anna is Phillips best friend’s sister, she is off limits. Phillip is tired of his mother bothering him about dating. However, there is an opportunity for Phillip that he doesn’t want to pass up. Talk to Anna about fake dating, but can they keep it fake or will their feelings get involved?
Overall this was a great read. Anna was the perfect person for Philip, she brought him out of his shell. She was a strong character that had me LOL at times. The attraction and steaminess between these two was off the charts hot. There were a few things that had me wondering if they would make it but I was happy with how things ended. Once I started I was done before I knew it. If you’re looking for a great read, 1-click and get started today on this series. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Building Storm is so much about rising from the ashes. It’s about losing everything, being broken, and finding out that when you think you can’t go on there’s a rainbow behind the clouds.
The story brings together two people who are both broken and similar but different in ways. Two people who for all intents and purposes should be running away from feelings. What starts out as just some good old-fashioned banging quickly turns into two people you are rooting for.
What Storm has already had to endure coupled with what else she ends up enduring throughout the story will break your heart, but also let you in to see just how much inner strength this woman has no matter what storms are engulfing her life.
Landon is a man clearly dealing with his own troubled past and storms. He somehow is able to use that to help Storm in ways she doesn’t realize. In the process I think he finds some of his own healing that maybe he didn’t realize he needed and deserved.
As with any good romantic suspense story, the secrets are bound to come out and you better hold on to your seat for the crying, the shock, and the pure holy heck moments,
Bringing other characters to the forefront like Saint and Byron make the story even more enticing. As always I love that this author brings all of the Hawke family in. While reading this series the only thing I would love to maybe see is a prequel that gives us much more background to Antonia and the origins of the Hawke family. Just as in book 3 this story has so much more storytelling than books one and two it’s exciting to see the incredible growth of this author from book one to this book and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next one. I highly recommend reading the series in order to get the most fulfillment out of your reading pleasure.
Well, Pemberley, Eliza and Darcy – obviously my first pick of the month. I am a hardcore Jane Austen fan and this book did pique my interest. Eliza Darcy, a descendant to “THE DARCY” visits Pemberley for a family reunion to patch up differences between her father and uncle. Things go haywire when the social etiquettes are replaced by murder and mayhem. Eliza along with the swoon-worthy Heath. Eliza is an amateur detective and half the time errs, but she gets some solid clues which become the game changer. Being an ardent Jane Austen fan, I did find references to the original P&P characters not really necessary, this book could have carried on as a contemporary murder mystery book “as-is”. But I did not mind revisiting the good old P&P characters at all, this book was fun But the book was overall fun and easy to read. A good mystery, eagerly waiting for what the author has in store for the rest of the books in the series.

Anna is learning to mingle with high society but she feels a bit out of her element but she finds ways to get comfortable in these situations. She’s had a crush for Phillip for many years and it finally seems like things are going in the right direction. I love Anna’s whit and sass and how she interacts with Phillip who always seems to be in “royal guise” but she brings him more down to earth. This book is the 4th book in the series. Although I haven’t read the other books in the series I had no problem connecting with the characters and enjoyed all the extra moments with what I assume were characters in the earlier books.

Cat and her family are on a family road trip to Arizona for a Thanksgiving week. While on the break they hope to find some answers about their family bakery and the way they can bake. Now that she knows what she can do, she NEEDS to know how this happened and why! Cat has to know EVERYTHING, which is a lot. While hunting for answers, Cat and her family gear up for a baking showdown with the other bakeries in the area. Cat, her best friend (and cousin) Robyn, and her sister investigate the competition in disguises and find out a lot about the different characters who bake in their town. They also find out really quick just how crazy things can get when they bake with magic without following the number one rule: Bake Happy. Bake Off is the second book in this fun unique high-jinx kids fantasy. I personally read this book, but I think my ten year old would love this book too. If is so funny and has recipes too!! I know my daughter and I will love trying some of these recipes and trying to make them low carb and low sugar.

The cover to this book is what got me, how could it not be good with the sun and water? This book did not disappoint me at all.
Clayton has a lot weighing down on him, his teenage daughter, ex-wife, child support, his bills and staying clean. Not to mention his sister dropping in for a visit.
I was hooked as soon as I read the first chapter and it kept me hooked until the end, but my favorite part happened in chapter 2 as Clayton was driving the boat. Reminded me of an experience my husband had on a boat several years ago which I thought was funny, he did not and I don’t think Clayton would have appreciated my laughter.
I have added the rest of this series to my TBR list, want to see what kind of trouble Clayton, Jimmy and the rest of the gang find.

Elizabeth is a single mother of 2 struggling in her day to day life. She cheated on her husband resulting in a child that was not his causing them to divorce. Elizabeth knows she messed up and lives everyday living the consequences. Her ex-husband, still angry, is making things worse. Late with the child support cheque and letting his thoughts of his ex-wife known to their son. Elizabeth falls deeper and deeper into debt. She goes to a trunk show where a woman, named Louisa, is selling clothing in a pyramid scheme. Sounding too good to be true, Elizabeth falls for it. On her way to her first training session, she is met by police tape and the murder of Louisa. Elizabeth makes it her duty to solve the murder.
Trying to solve a murder, take care of a toddler by herself, protect her older son from bullies, an appearance of an ex, Elizabeth tries to do it all.
This book is the debut novel written by this author and it shows. The synopsis made the book sound really interesting and it was for the most part. The only downfall was it was very repetitive and felt like the author was just trying to fill the pages. It did not focus on the murder very often and then felt very rushed to close the case at the end of the book.

Jester By: Brielle D. Porter Review by: Susan Ratchford 5 Stars
Lisette is a desperate illusionist in a place full of entertainers with real magical abilities, abilities she could have had if her father had not killed the king and been executed for his crimes. Oasis is a city of sin where people come to lose themselves in the lights, the booze, and the entertainment. When Lisette enters a dangerous competition to be chosen as the Queen’s Jester, the highest ranking magical position in the world, her biggest rival is Luc. A man who has all the abilities she has ever wanted. When secrets begin to unfold about the King’s death Lisette will have a big decision to make. Will she redeem her family’s name or snatch at the fame she’s worked so hard for? What a wonderful debut novel, I was absolutely blown away! The magic and illusions are amazing and the competition is fierce! This book has everything you want from a YA novel and so much more, with wonderful twists and a super satisfying ending! Lisette is a well written and complex protagonist whose determination and desperation you can truly feel, and her rivalry with Luc is so entrancing. Brielle D. Porters’ writing is so magical that I felt like I was in Oasis with all of the unique and fun characters she created. This book truly reminded me why I’ve always loved the YA genre! A must read!!

This modern day fairy tale retelling really had it all. Based off of Cinderella this novel was so good I couldn’t put it down, however I am a sucker for fairy tale retellings. This book was full of great characters , magic, romance and so much more that I couldn’t help but give it five stars. This is my first novel by this author but based on the wonderful story, the beautiful cover and so much more I will definitely be looking for the next novel on this series.

This was far different from the novels I have been reading as of late, and really stole my attention away from the real world. The author brings the reader into a world where females are, in my opinion, the far stronger sex, which is always exciting, and to a dystopian world like no other. The choices made, words used to describe the characters, world, and adventure that ensues is delectable to say the least. Ultimately, everything happens for a reason, and timing is a large part of that, as you’ll soon find out.
I love a good read that includes two characters that separate, are unsure of the future, but together make for a brighter future. This novel brought me that join, along with a smile, sadness, goosebumps and the hope that this world continues on in future adventure, as I have become a huge fan of this authors work, and look forward to following Bernard, Alva, and the rest of their world for some time. Highly recommend!

This is the first book I have read by this author and I was not disappointed. This story was entertaining, intriguing, suspenseful, had great characters and left me wanting more. We get to see character growth in Clayton, he is trying to be better after making mistakes in his past. Clayton now works for Jimmy in the repo business and while trying to overcome his past mistakes he realizes that he has other problems in himself he needs to also overcome. I don’t want to give anything away, so I will just say that this is a good read. I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for us in the book in this series.

I immediately liked this book from the start. Anna was a delight of a character to read about and she ended up being my favorite. She is the perfect balance of poised woman and take no shit woman. I admired her for the countless times she stood up for herself and I found her hilarious a lot of times. She was the perfect balance to Phillip who was a bit too stiff for me at first. He was exactly what I imagined a Royal person would be like but him having Anna to help keep him down to earth and be a normal person it was lovely to see him be a real human and I adored the way he slowly fell for Anna. I love a slow romance on either end but since Anna has loved him for years I enjoyed reading about Phillip slowly opening up to her and falling for the girl I’d adored from the start. This was also so steamy I had to stop reading at some points to cool down. It was very good! I was waiting for the drama for a long time because most of the book was like a fairytale and the drama did come through. It was almost painful reading about Phillip be such an idiot but his groveling worked and I appreciated the happy ending although could have done without the random pregnancy scare that ended up being nothing. That felt pointless as I would have been expected the last chapter pregnancy to happen but this felt like a fake out. I overall enjoyed this and was surprised to read it in less than 24 hours. I am now intrigued with the rest of the series and may have to read them to learn more about the other characters cause I really enjoyed almost all the characters in this book. Anna is the Queen in my book though. She was epic.

The Cool Thing: A Dark Comedy Or Not is the first book in The Cool Thing series. Let me tell you, I was intrigued by the blurb, but it does not prepare you for this book. The story is a fun, sci-fi, romance, and adventure rolled into one. The story is really creative, but what did it for me was the elements of dark comedy. The descriptions and dialogue were unexpectedly amazing. I wasn’t sure where the story would take me, but I was not disappointed. I look forward to reading the next book in this creative series and reading more from this author soon.

Or Not. by Robert Rife – Review by Sheri Schrader
This trilogy comes to an end with this book that focuses on Cat’s continued baking escapades. I’m going to miss this neat little series of books that features some really good recipes, as well as a great story!
Cat and Nate still have a love-hate relationship. More on the hate side. When they swap family curses, things become a little more interesting. I do like that Cat got a taste of what Nate felt. Not sure the curse had the same effect on Nate in regards to Cat. I think it gave Cat a better appreciation for Nate, although she continued to be pretty icy towards him.
This is a great book for pre-teens and teen girls and boys who enjoy baking. It would be a great book to read with a trusted adult that could help them bake some fun recipes! There is a hint that Robyn might get her own story and I do hope she will!

I really enjoyed reading the story of Cat and her journey from “making” frozen waffles and microwave dinners to learning how to bake. It is a sweet story of a middle school girl who’s finding her way in more ways than one, from navigating her crush on a cute new guy who just moved to town to learning more about her family history she is discovering what makes her happy. Cat’s unique journey has allowed her to learn her family history and discover more about why baking is just so important to her family. Bonus: there’s a recipe after every chapter 🙂

If you haven’t read Bake Believe and Bake Off, do yourself a favor and read those, then read this you won’t be disappointed! I’m so grateful to Cori for introducing the wonderful world of Cat Anderson and her family. This story tied together the mystery of their family’s blessing/curse and I can’t wait to share it with my daughter, who is a big fan of baking. I’m sad that this is the last book in the trilogy but it concluded in a way that leaves me satisfied in spite being sad to see it end. PS- I have definitely bookmarked several recipes I plan to try soon 😉

A thoroughly strange and unique read. I have to admit my favorite thing about this book was the author’s descriptive language. I had never read anything from this author, but their style of writing definitely drew me in and gave life to this book. The book has an eclectic plot that is like nothing else I’ve ever read before. Bottom line: if you’re into dark humor, horror, sci-fi elements, and not too attached to characters in general – you’ll enjoy this book.

Or Not. by Robert Rife – Review by Amanda Gonzalez
Ritual Obsession by RL Dunn is the first book in the Blood Obsession series and what a way to start a series. This book was hard to put down and I actually got annoyed I finished it too quickly. The story follows Bobbi, a detective in the NYPD. Bobbi is not your typical police officer as she comes from a wealthy background and was a debutante. When she is sent to a new precinct it is not easy to fit in however she proves her worth to her tough partner Rose. I don’t want to spoil the story, but this book has you feeling all sorts of things! There are some trigger warnings as it does touch on some very sensitive subjects but if you want a thrilling, gritty crime novel with a hint of romance. I have read a few books by this author and loved them, this book did not disappoint.

Although very predictable and Hallmark special feeling. This one still has all the warm fuzzy good feelings that I love. The characters are well written and endearing. And the vernacular is really fun for an American! I absolutely love Scottish slang! There’s a Glossary of Scottish Slang at the rear of the Book! Our Main Lady is Anna, a Scottish lass with a wonderful vocabulary that I absolutely adore! She’s unapologetically herself and doesn’t change who she is for a man in this one, yet the character growth is beautiful. Our main man is Lord Phillip Sutherland, Earl of Arburne, a British aristocrat. He has decided who he has to be due to his title, but can he truly embrace who he is and live for the right woman. This romance is a really easy, but fun read. The characters are all really well written with great growth and story arcs. The world is rich and you don’t want to put this one down. It’s definitely going into my pile of “comfort reads” novels.

Ritual Obsession (Blood Obsession Book 1) By R.L. Dunn Review By: Susan Ratchford 5 Stars
A thrilling mystery that will keep you turning pages! After a rookie is killed on duty, Roberta “Bobbi” Wallace gets assigned to the 10th precinct. With her good looks and after being a teen debutante, in high society, Bobbi is used to people not taking her seriously. When her new hard-ass partner Rose starts calling her Little Miss Debs, Bobbi thirsts to prove herself through her work. When Max Buckley sets eyes on the new rookie he is drawn to her immediately. Bobbi feels it too although she isn’t looking for a workplace romantic relationship, even though she can’t deny the connection they have. All personal feelings must be put on hold however when a serial killer dubbed The Bathtub Killer, is loose and on a gruesome killing spree. To make matters worse the escorts he is mutilating are all brunettes with hazel eyes, just like her. Can Bobbi go undercover and catch this prolific killer or will she be his next victim? I am on the edge of my seat, I need the next book ASAP! I loved it! This book was such a page-turner that makes you need to know more! Very well written and relatable characters ( I love Bobbi) and scenes packed with so much suspense and thrills! I really enjoyed the fact that R.L. Dunn created a crime thriller that had two female partners of the NYPD. It was a refreshing take that you don’t see very often. Her use of language and detail really makes this story so immersive and her clues and twists were woven in so perfectly! Such a great read! Highly recommend it!

Dunn – Review by Susan Ratchford
Jester is a must to read! Oasis a town where people come to be entertained. (It reminds me of Las Vegas.) There are magicians that use real magic or slight of hand. Lisette is in love with being in the spotlight but without the use of magic she has to work twice as hard. The Queen has come to Oasis to select her next Jester. Her biggest competition is Luc, an arrogant and handsome man. She will do anything to become the Queen’s Jester. How far will she go to achieve her dreams?
I absolutely loved Jester by Brielle D. Porter! I couldn’t put the book down! I extremely liked Lisette because of her determination to achieve her dream, which I found relatable. With a speckle of magic, mystery, and suspense this book was able to tell an amazing story and made me feel like I was sitting in the audience watching the show. I look forward to more books by Brielle D. Porter since this is her debut novel.
