Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection #3) by Nikki Lynn Barrett – Review by Angela Packard

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

This is the third book in the Soul Connection series. Nikki Lynn Barrett has done an incredible job telling these stories and I was thrilled to find out there are even more coming. If you haven’t read the first two books, I would recommend doing so. There is so much back story to be told.
I love paranormal books, and to be in a world that people help ghosts cross over is utterly wonderful for me. Scott and Zelda are introduced in book one, and this book continues their story. Ghosts, secrets, and a bucket of emotions are packed into this story. Have your box of Kleenex ready as you enter their world.

I enjoyed this book way more than I realized I would, it’s a lot different than what I normally read, so I wasn’t sure how much is enjoy it. Archery wove together a collection of tales from different areas of the world Alda, combining them to build a view of the darkness spreading through their entire world. I’m truly looking forward to the next book of the trilogy and hoping to see the fates of several characters.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A great addition to this series! I loved Liberty, and her family. This got me in the holiday spirit and will be rereading again closer to Christmas for that feel good feeling this left me with.
When two people, so alike in career focus, yet so different in their backgrounds have to choose between their feelings or their work, it makes for a story you want to read.

Snowflakes & Stockings by Marianne Rice is the fourth book in A Wilton Hills Christmas series. This can be read as a stand-alone book. I always enjoy the HEA books taking place during the holidays. It is always easy to incorporate holiday magic and this book did not disappoint. I enjoyed the main characters Liberty and Sawyer. The story is relatable with the pull of work and personal life coming into play. I also enjoyed the contrast between the two families and how they celebrate the holidays. The story is fun and I was rooting for the HEA while reading. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was amazing! I always enjoy reading teen and young adult books just as a way to destress and because I’m a sucker for a fantasy story. I adored the way the point of view alternated back and forth, and the connections between the two main characters that were multi-level. The way the characters were so unique made me just need to know how they were going to succeed at their goal! I really can’t wait to see what comes next! Also, Zoe’s tattoos and the differences between her and Nix in the way they grew up are really present and still beautiful. It makes so much sense in the way they approach each other and the world in general.

A great read if you are into Hallmark movie vibes. In it, investigative journalist Liberty meets tech company owner Sawyer during her search for a Secret Santa. Things I love: the realistic storyline, a relationship of two career-focused adults, the supporting characters – especially Liberty’s family. This is my first read by this author but I will definitely be back for similar books. This is a great one to add to your holiday romance lists.

I had never heard of this author before now and what a way to kickstart!
I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect because elf related books don’t really strike my fancy but I’m really liking dystopian relate books these days so I figured why not?!
This book was full of action that left me wanting to read nonstop!! I’m excited to know there’s more than one!!
My only complaint was that it was hard to get into in the beginning.

Book Review: Snowflakes and Stockings (book 4 in the Wilton Hills Christmas series)
Author: Marianne Rice
FIVE STARS
Ok so I have fallen in love with this series. I found them quite by accident and binge read them ALL in just a week. Quick reads and oh so much fun. The Johnson family is amazing and I love them all. Each book in this series can be read as a stand alone, however you will NOT be disappointed if you read them all in order. Each book builds on the last, but like I said, you can read just one. If you do read book 4 before any other the others, you will get details about the other characters from previous books.
With that all being said. Liberty and Sawyer, CHEMISTRY from the onset. It was a fantastic story and oh my, I didn’t want it to end!

This is a great read for middle school age children or to read to younger children. Kids will get lost in the story and learn about biology and ecology along the way. I love that the author included diagrams, a glossary and an appendix so that kids can expand on what they read in the book. I can see this book creating future marine biologists. I think the majority of children will enjoy this story.

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, book 1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Colleen Noyes

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, #1)No Way Out by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This author has done it once again. I love how each book I’ve read by her not only gets better but she does a great job of balancing just the right amount of action, suspense, and romance. No way out is the first book in the mafia elite series and is focused on Max and Liliana. The circumstances that bring them together are not ideal in any way but told through each POV you’re able to grasp how each one feels. I love that the author does a great job of giving each character a tragedy that motivates their part of the story. You can tell that each character including the sub characters are a little broken but the journey to the end is well worth all that makes you feel distraught. Max is what I like to call a man’s man meaning he’s tough, he is strong, and I view him as the kind of man you could just feel safe in his arms. Liliana is a strong female character who is very no nonsense. She knows what she wants and is willing to do whatever it takes even if it means her own peril. This author does not tell a story with a ton of fluff or extra unneeded hoopla which makes it 100 times easier to get into the story and the characters which I greatly appreciate. If you enjoy a good romantic suspense book, then you will want to pick this up immediately. The characters are strong, the action is immense, and you will immediately feel as if you’ve been transported into the story. I’m looking forward to book 2 in this series.

Marina Hanna pulls you in immediately with her style of writing and ability to build a story. Likeable and relatable characters, modern day stories and situations, wicked sense of humor.

The story opens after a one night stand between Mark and Lauren, and the chemistry is sizzling from the first page! There is sexiness, fun and flirtation, a touch of drama, and so much more. Do yourself a favor and read this book.

I love the attraction between the two but can they make it work? This was a great read and perfect to get you in the mood for the upcoming holiday season.

I absolutely loved everything about this book. A perfect fit of this genre. The sweet building romance, the large loving family and holiday traditions both open and secret. Sawyer and Liberty had great chemistry. How could you not fall in love with Sawyer? He is thoughtful considerations and ability to assimilate into the Johnson family despite his tragic history was beautifully crafted. I am so glad with how the ending transpired. I definitely will be reading the other books in this series when it gets closer to December. This book was a cozy, holiday romance perfect for those that love this genre.

Come back tomorrow by Amy Argent is book one in the Embrace Tomorrow series. Main characters Will and Tori present a story of two people meeting at just the right time and about how the people you meet can impact your life in the best ways. I was sobbing by the end. It’s a story filled with sadness, yet also filled with hope. A must read for a good book cry day.

5 stars!

As an adult I really enjoyed this children’s book. The story of the whales in distress and the other sea animals signaling for help and working together was heartwarming. It was sweet that every whale had their own name. Then end is nice for both children and adults, it breaks down what each term means, and then give a brief description of that term. I didn’t know what a Fluke was, now I do and although it seems like something I may never use, it is nice knowledge to have, it is something I won’t forget. Then the book goes into describing the different sea animals and other sea terms such as the coral reef, mangroves, Whitetip shark etc. It is nice to see that some countries are trying to do their part in keeping things like mangroves alive and thriving. It is also sad to learn of the Virus that effects marine mammals, and honestly I had no idea it even existed. Overall would recommend for any family to read together, this book has a wealth of knowledge and is very easy and fun to read.

Ashes of Aldyr (The Obscured Thorne Trilogy Book 1)Ashes of Aldyr by Russell Archey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ashes of Aldyr is the first book in the Obscured Throne Trilogy. There is everything you could ask for in this book! Elves, dwarves, humans, etc. When I read the synopsis, I was expecting a Lord of the Rings vibe to it. It was not what I expected but it did not disappoint! Even after reading the into chapter I was hooked!

I love reading fantasy but not so much horror. This book has both elements but was written in such a way that I loved everything even the horror aspect.

Russell Archey has a way with words. The book was very descriptive and well written. I could not put the book down! The way the author described the evil, you’d think they were evil as well. I found my heart was beating harder and I could not stop reading. I cannot wait to read the other two books in the trilogy! Highly recommend!

I love a good holiday book and this one did not disappoint. This is the first book I have read in the series and I now NEED to go back and read the others! Liberty is an investigative reporter and is looking for Maine’s Secret Santa. She meets Sawyer Campbell, who owns and runs a huge technology company and she thinks he may be the Secret Santa. The story is light, fun, romantic, and funny. I loved every character in the book and I want to sit down for family dinners at the Johnson house.

Mr. Russell Archey is a new author to my growing list of favorite authors. This book is a fantasy book but it is on the dark side of fantasy. The attention to detail really makes this book stand out for me. It has all types of characters in the story. There are magical trees, elf-kind, humans, and some nasty god-like characters. I felt like I was one of the characters in the book. The adventure that I went on was one of dark arts. It held my attention with each passing page. The storyline has many levels throughout the book but Mr. Archey does an amazing job of keeping it all straight for me.I highly recommend reading this book as it is an amazing journey. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve been excited for this book so let’s dive into another of Manda’s world. Finding out about Red’s past is very eye opening. Learning from his POV and what led him to the club brings him to a new light. He’s been through so much that man. Learning the background of the clubs is extremely interesting especially as we know a canny bit about the Tuscon Chapter of the Santan Devils. I didn’t realise how Red had it so much and how quick things changed for him I can’t wait to read the rest of. A bit of laughter but so many tears brought by this book.

Profound and teaches

This book teaches while going on a nice jounery with Dolphins, Sharks, Dolphin riders who happen to be protectors and plenty of slim chances for the Dolphins where it gets to be turns around each time. In the glossary a slew of knowledge is given about the ocean and the words used through out the book. Even though this book is fictional is it knowledgeable and teaches children words and verbiage while having them trek on a perilous journey.

I loved it and recommend it fully.

I enjoyed this romance story. I found this story to be fast paced and well written. It is a story of a fairytale and the challenges of starting over. The characters pulled me into the story from the beginning. They are connectable and kept the story engaging. This is a story about Harper and Lincoln. What happens one steamy night is more than Harper was expecting. She is having a baby and is determined to live her dreams. He has just finished a movie and has come home. What he did not expect is to find his one night stand pregnant. What will happen next, I highly recommend reading this book. It has great plot and character growth throughout the story. This is a great story that I truly enjoyed. It is worth the pick up.

This is not my first book by this author but it is my favorite by her yet. This is a great holiday story that is written with a lot of heart and spirit. This is a romance story that kept me engaged to the end. This is a fast paced story where the characters are not only relatable but they also gave life to the story. This is a well written story that pulled in me from the beginning. This is a story about Liberty and Sawyer. She is one case away from getting a big promotion. She is in search of a Secret Santa. She has her list down to a couple possibilities and Sawyer just happens to be one of them. As the holiday approaches she is left with a decision, should she follow her lead or her heart? I enjoyed their chemistry and what they brought to the story. They made the story fun and entertaining to read. This is a great holiday story that will put you in the mood for the coming holidays. I highly recommend this book.

“Snowflakes & Stockings” by Marianne Rice is a holiday romance novel. Liberty is an investigative reporter, who has been assigned to discovering Maine’s Secret Santa. Her search leads her to Sawyer, co-owner of a very successful tech company. There is immediate attraction, and she is soon introducing him to her large family. I loved the very relatable family gathering scenes in this book. The sibling banter and teasing warmed my heart, and gave us a better glimpse of Liberty and Sawyer’s personalities. This is the fourth book in the Wilton Hills Christmas series, but can be read as a stand-alone book.
