The Bow: A Fated Mates Greek Myth Paranormal Romance (Her Three Immortals Book 3)
By Hazel Storm

This book pulled in from the beginning just like the first two in this series. This series just keeps getting better with each book. This one gets a little more steamy than the first two, I am definitely not complaining. In this one Vanessa finds herself in a race against time on a mission she needs to complete to save her soul but it doesn’t seem to be going as planned. I loved how we got to know some of the characters better in this story. This book starts up right where book two left off so it is my suggestion you read this series in order. This book is full of great characters, magic, danger, action and so much more. This is a must read and I cannot wait to read what comes next.

Scarlet Princess (Lochlann Feuds Book 1) by Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

Scarlet Princess (The Lochlann Feuds, #1)Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love Love Love Love this book. I dont think I can say enough!! It gives me all the feels!!! First, the cover of the book is just stunning!! The story is truly amazing. Princess Rowan and her cousin Davin start out by trying to smuggle vodka…on their way back in the tunnels, it collapse’s. Guards from Socarian take Rowan and Davin where they find out that smuggling could be punishable by death. There is a “Summit” called by the the leader of the Elk Clan and Rowan also meets Theo, whom is the brother of the leader.

I just loved Rowan’s character. Fiery, sassy, passionate with a mind of her own. She is a girl to love! Theo, I adored him so. I really love them together and love the protectiveness that Theo wants to provide to Rowan so she does not meet the fate of possible death due to her smuggling.

If you love a great young adult story with some twists, a fiery princess and an Ending that **AHHHH** this book is for you!!

No Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio – Review by Tina Vega

No Strings AttachedNo Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First, I just want to say this is one of the most entertaining opening scenes I’ve ever read. I could literally see this scene played out in my head. I like the interaction between Kayla and Tanner. I found myself laughing out loud at their dialogue. Refreshingly real. When the ex (her baby’s daddy) enters the picture, I think every mom can sympathize with her here. Being torn between the fact that they have a kid together vs his reoccurring pattern. Even when logically clear, it gets emotionally blurry. A wonderful story single moms need to read who feel like they don’t have time to date. This was my first book from this author and so glad for this introduction to her writing style! Will be watching for more books from her!

I gave this book 3 stars because it was not at all what I was expecting and not a genre I prefer, but not because of the book itself. The first chapter is a nice, easy read and then BAM. The second chapter completely caught me off guard, lol. The book is a very fast read and does parallel Cinderella very well. There are some themes that I personally choose not to read incorporated. The book is well written but I wish I was better prepared going into this book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ye Gods! The Law is an Ass! (Donovan Trait Book 2) by Seelie Kay. This is the second book in this series and its just as good if not better than the first. I loved it. It takes place right as Shirley and Donovan are getting married and they are so happy. Right as the wedding is about to take place Shirley finds out she’s pregnant. She’s so excited but the Coalition isn’t happy at all so Shirley and Donovan have to run to save their baby. Since Shirley is human and Donovan is a Vampire Prince they are figuring out all this works as well as learning to be married and save their baby. Trying to change old laws and rules so that they can keep their child is their main goal. They have violated the contract with the Coalition so they are in deep trouble like life and death trouble. Will they get a law passed before the baby gets here? I highly recommend reading book 1 first so that you get all the background. This series is soo good. I can’t wait for the next!

To be a Fae Queen (Realm Chronicles Book 1) by Tricia Copeland – Review by Tamisha Janay

To be a Fae Queen (Realm Chronicles #1)To be a Fae Queen by Tricia Copeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I started this book worried that it would have the same plotline as every other Fae story that I have read lately, but I was so incredibly enthralled by it that I could not put it down until I was finished. I read it all in one sitting. Titania is struggling with her anxiety, which is something that I deal with as well – so this made the story even more interesting to me. The loss of her brothers before the story begins showed me a deeper purpose for her wanting to prove herself. For a girl (faerie) so young, it was incredible to watch her change into a regal and humble leader. From the challenge of a woman reigning over the kingdom, to the confusion regarding her emotions regarding the opposite sex, and the deception of people she assumed she could trust – this story literally had everything that I needed and wanted to see. I love that there is something mysterious surrounding her mother and that there is an unknown power that Titania possesses – it leaves so much more to be revealed in future books. The descriptions of where to find the faerie lands in reference to the world as we know it was extremely clever and made it all feel that much more real. I look forward to reading more about the upper and lower realms as well as discovering what happens as time goes on. Tricia Copeland did an amazing job with this story, and I will be reading any and everything of hers that I can get my hands on. Highly recommend!

No Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio – Review by Dahnielle Hibbert

No Strings AttachedNo Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is so well written and so easy to fall into. I simply couldn’t put it down. Author Lara Ward Cosio really knows how to turn out an amazing tale. So many emotions go through you as you read this story. I really related with Kayla and the issues she faced. I laughed out loud so much that this tale includes that added bonus of enjoyment and entertainment that is very healing for the soul. I love a book with a strong female lead who proves although men are important in our lives we do not need them to survive and enjoy life. Kayla has it all, a career where she is excelling, a beautiful albeit small apartment, a lovely daughter and great friends. Her daughter’s father is more absent than not from both of their lives and Kayla is ok with that. She has dedicated her life to making her daughter’s life stable and good.
However, an attractive attentive man who has it all, except a woman to share it with, shows up in Kayla’s life and the attraction is instant. Tanner is handsome, dedicated to his work and sister and a family oriented man. He doesn’t have kids of his own but he dotes on his nephews. The vibes and funny antidotes that the author so descriptively uses will make you want more. Even at the end with the HEA I found myself wishing there was more to the story. A charming read that leaves the reader feeling good, No Strings Attached, will leave you wishing for more story even just a side story that includes life for these two people after the HEA.

Author A.L Morrow took the story of Cinderella to a whole new level. A Disney classic meets the dark parts of Harry Potter so to speak. A twisted love story you will not expect.

Will she be forever in her stepmother’s grasp? If you love Cinderella and want a more grown up version with lots of surprises, this is a must read.

Love’s Refrain is Book 1 of The Stardust Duet. Readers follow Kat Monroe and Phillip Gordon on their journey of love and discovery. Initially when introduced to Kat’s character I worried that her personality would be written as a bit basic and predictable, but I quickly saw her character deepen and develop throughout the novel. A heart-breaking romantic tale of commitment through time, this is a lovely read to curl up with in front of a fire and disappear into.

Wild Desire (The Protectors Series Book 1) by Toya Richardson – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

Wild Desire (The Protectors, #1)Wild Desire by Toya Richardson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wild Desire is the first book in Toya Richardson’s The Protectors Series. It is a paranormal romance with a magical, dangerous forest setting.

I really like the focus on conservation and nature in this book. Mila feels called back to the forest to protect it, knowing the same forces her parents fought against continue to threaten it. She encounters the beautiful local deer, who she soon discovers are more than they first appear. But at the same time she encounters her childhood nemesis, who is illegally hunting in the forest.

At times it felt like the narrative moved too quickly – I would have liked to have more time at the start of the book to get to know Mila and the setting, perhaps with details of her past dripped in more gradually, but then I did like how the immediacy of certain events forced Mila and Elias to skip formalities and dive into their relationship. And there were plenty of mysteries kept for later in the book!

The series focuses on a different couple in each book, allowing Richardson to develop the world whilst giving us a new romance every time. I’m looking forward to reading more of them, and exploring this fantastic world!

For me, this is a four star read. I’d recommend it to fans of paranormal shifter romance, who like a beautiful outdoors setting!

No Strings AttachedNo Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

No Strings Attached is an excellent contemporary romance by Lara Ward Cosio. I have read several books by this author and have to say that this is the one I have enjoyed the most. I really connected with this book from the very beginning and was kept gripped and entertained by the story right up to the very end.
Kayla, a single mum of adorable 4 year old Emmy, has been watching the sexy builder working across the road from her house. Unknown to her, sexy builder Tanner has had he eye on the sexy redhead he sees at the window opposite his construction site. When they have a chance meeting in the local coffee shop, could this be the start of something good?
While pretending that there is more to their friendship to Tanner’s sister and Kayla’s ex, they soon discover that their strings relationship might just be something more.
I really loved the characters of Kayla and Tanner. In addition to the main characters there is a great cast of secondary characters that really add so much to the story, particularly Tanner’s sister and the 3 adorable kids, Emmy (Kayla’s daughter) and Max and Matt (Tanner’s adorable twin nephews). I’m a total sucker for cute kids in a book and these 3 stole my heart.
No Strings Attached is a really enjoyable read and I’d definitely recommend it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites. What I enjoy most about this author is her ability to pull me into her stories with ease and keep my attention to the end. Her attention to details give her stories a realistic feel. The characters bring the story to life and bring the romance to a new level. This book is no different. It is the first book in this series and what a great start it was. This is a well written story about Mila and Elias. She is starting her dream job of a forest ranger and he has been looking for the one his whole life. What will happen when one chance meeting changes everything for them. This is where the story takes on a suspenseful plot when Mila is taken captive. I really enjoyed their chemistry and growth throughout the plot. The twists and turns that make the story suspenseful kept the story engaging. You don’t want to miss what happens with them. I highly recommend picking up this book today to find out. It is worth the read, for sure.

This is the third book in this series which keeps just getting better and better with every one. This is a great author that I have enjoyed from the first book that I picked up from the first book I picked up. I enjoy being pulled into the story by the author’s use of attention to details that gave the story a realistic feel. This is a well written story that took me on an adventure of supernatural characters that bring the story to life. I found this book to be not only fast paced but engaging as well. I enjoyed the growth of the plot and the characters throughout the story. This is a story about Lucy and her adventure of saving her friends and herself from the demon that threatens to break loose in the Windy City. I really enjoyed this supernatural story. It is a great young adult story that I would highly recommend.

My only complaint about this book is that……. it wasn’t long enough!! I can not wait to read part two!!! This is not your typical Cinderella book. This retelling is so different and fun and interesting and catching! It sucked me in!! I read it so fast that I was upset there wasn’t more for me to read right away. LOL. The Prince and his husband are searching for a woman to help bring an heir to their family and the realm. So what better way then to throw a huge ball and meet all the ladies in the kingdom right? Well let’s just say, things never goes as planned…. Enter in Ashling, who was brought up to fear the dark creatures beyond the arc, which boarder the house her stepmother, her stepsisters, and herself live in. Can she fight these beasts her father warned her about, before disappearing past the arc? Will she take her glass slippers to the ball or will the beasts tear her apart before she can even make it? Will the prince die fighting the nightmares or will he and his husband find a young lady to secure the kingdom’s future? You have to read this one!! You won’t be disappointed….. except that you will want more!! LOL 🙂

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First things first, I want more of this! Donovan has his hands full with a pregnant Shirley. They are dealing with violating the agreement they made with the Coalition and that’s kind of like war. Hiding on an island of Nuns, Donovan and Shirley are trying to fight this battle, deal with the pregnancy and have the babies when they come early. Trying every method and with every resource they can, they go to battle with the Coalition to prove that vampire babies can be born from a vampire/human mating. The Coalition, being made up of good old vamps, can’t get their heads out of their asses to see the problem. So, big steps must be taken. This book is exciting, fresh, full of adventure and fun! You should read it. It’s a quick weekend read. Well-written, a few twists where you don’t expect them. Highly recommend. I’m looking forward to reading more of this author.

Entwined is the first book in the Stone and Cinder series by A.L. Morrow. It is a captivating Cinderella retelling, with a bit of a twist. Ms. Morrow has taken the classic fairytale and given it a bit of a sexy shake up. This original story is full of fantasy, magic, romance, agendas, high stakes, chemistry, a menage- with M/M… M/F… & M/M/F, drama, and more.
I don’t want to give too much away and spoil it for you, because if you love fairytale retellings with a sexy twist, then you are definitely going to want to read the story for yourself.
This is a short story- which made for a very quick and easy read. It is told from multiple points of view, which made it all the more interesting. Bring on Book #2!

Thank you, A.L. Morrow!

5 +++++++ Stars

I’ll start by saying this book deserves so many more than 5 stars! I’ll also start by saying that my life is now suspended in time until October 26th, if anyone is looking for me I’ll be stationed in The Grand Theater in Whitley, Georgia I’ll be the one way up front pacing as I await the rest of this story!!

I’ll be honest, I had every intention of not finishing this book. I planned to get to the last chapter and stop. I wanted to read that on October 26th so that I could continue on without stopping. I couldn’t do it… I trusted this author, somewhere I read where she stated this book did not end on an actual cliff hanger, but more of an intermission. So in trusting that, I read on…Now here I sit…suspended in time!

I have read the famous time travel story by another author 4 times now, you know the one I’m speaking of, I have them all on my physical bookshelf on the top shelf, and have watched those books become a series on tv, which i’ve binged at least 3 times. That series has ruined me for any other time travel I have attempted to read. Until now!!!! I was so nervous going into this book, this author has literally become one of my top 3 favorites of all time and I was so scared. Well, this is why she is one of my top 3 faves. I can not even think straight right now. She took a whole new approach to this genre and BLEW IT OUT OF THE TIME TRAVEL REALM!! I’m in shock and loved this story so much. I loved the movie from long ago that for me actually started this time travel idea, I’ve watched that so many times and it’s an auto go to when I’m looking for a familiar movie to watch. This story has that feel to it, but in my opinion even surpasses that and I want this made into a movie so bad. I loved every word, every emotion that was brought out of me, I loved these characters, well, almost all of them and truly felt I was tumbling through with Kat everytime. The locket had me all messed up, and figuring that out is still rolling through my mind. I have theories on how this story will progress and eventually end and these will drive me nuts as I’m pacing this theater awaiting the release of the next.

I’ve rambled in this review and I’m sorry, but I still can’t even come close to explaining why every reader should grab this book and then buckle in and hold on!

Thank you Miss Fletcher for stomping my fears and giving me this story, I am in Love, and these will be right up there on my bookshelf, at the top and will be read many many more times in my future!

No Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio was the first book by Ms WC that I have read and I have to say I loved it from start to finish! Such great characters and a wonderful storyline that had a great mix of fun, laughter and tears.

Single mum Kayla is focused on her beautiful daughter and her management position at work she doesn’t have time for some hot guy to come along and shake things up but that’s exactly what Tanner does when he comes into her life. Nether intend their for “friendship” to be more than something to create mutual satisfaction with no strings attached, it soon becomes apparent though that avoiding those strings isn’t going to be so after all. Throw in an annoying Ex returning and a well meaning little sister and you definitely have some interesting times ahead.

This author never disappoints! I LOVED this story and its characters. It is very relatable on many levels. It has highs and lows and hits all the emotional buttons.

Its hard to pick a favorite character because I enjoy each for different reasons. We read from each of their POV so its easy to feel what they are feeling. I really enjoyed Tanner because of his work ethic but also his helpfulness and love. I liked that the children were written well and antics are within their age brackets.

Overall this is a definite one click. I loved the humor, sense of family, romance and how this has many layers. This author nailed this one!

Born to Fight (Can’t Resist You Book 1) by Brittany Anne is an apocalyptic dystopian romance story. It is a tale that makes you think that their reality could in fact one day be our reality. This gripping tale had me turning page after page as I was riveted to the story. I was in the zone and completely oblivious to anything around me. So much so I realised hubby was walking away from me shaking his head. Anyhoo, this wonderful story is full of action and danger, drama and suspense, adventure, and mystery. You can feel the passion of Brittany’s words as you journey through the lies and secrets, hope and frustrations, pain, and sorrow of the characters.

Can enemies become more? Grab this book to find out.

To be a Fae Queen (Realm Chronicles #1)To be a Fae Queen by Tricia Copeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Enchanting! Stunning! Breath-taking! So many descriptive words to choose from, but these three stuck out the most. Author Tricia Copeland is very gifted and brings her stories to life, making you the reader feel like you are immersed in the story. Her characters are well thought out, fully developed and polished giving us an incredible understanding of each and every one.

In To Be A Fae Queen we are surrounded by mystery from almost the instant the story begins. Mystery surrounding the Fae King Oberon of Aubren, the queen herself and the crystals leave you wanting more. Titania although young in age (only 15) seems on the precipice of life. She wants to be taken seriously, but seems as if she is not really sure how she should go about it. All her attempts are thwarted by her father the King as he wants nothing more than to keep her safe. Titania fights for her right to the throne and takes us on an epic journey as she attempts to solve the magical mystical mysteries that are plaguing her kingdom.

I love the details Ms. Copeland added to this book. The simplest being the map, however while simple, the map really aides in your expedition throughout the tale! I love the unmitigated brilliance of Ms. Copeland’s artisanship.

Saratoga Roan by Bree M. Lewandowski

3 out of 5 stars

A story of second chances. Cassandra Verlice ran from Rhett Farris five years ago. Cassandra isn’t really sure why she ran. All the reasons she had when she left didn’t make sense after her plane took off and she was on her way to a new life. When Cassandra received the call that an aunt she barely knew willed her a house practically in Rhett’s back yard, it didn’t matter. Cassandra was just going to walk away. A startling experience made Cassandra realize that all she wanted in her life was Rhett. If she went back, could she win him back? Would he even talk to her? Her plan was nearly perfect.

Rhett Farris’ life was in the process of major adjustment. His brother, Tom, had gotten downsized just days prior to his wife leaving him via email. Tom moved in with their father, whose diagnosis of dementia was becoming more apparent. When the senior community their father was living in got shut down, Rhett asked Tom and their father to move home. If that wasn’t enough, she sauntered back onto Rhett’s ranch. Cassandra Verlise.

Rhett and Cassandra could have a second chance if Rhett is willing to forgive. Rhett and Tom could have a second chance if they can work together regarding their father. Rhett and his father could have a second chance at a relationship in the time that his father has left if Rhett can put old anger and hurt aside. Can Rhett capture any of these chances? Only one is answered. The others are left open for interpretation. I hope there is a sequel so that some of the questions can get answered!

No Strings Attached by Lara Ward Cosio

4 out of 5 Stars

Two hunks vying for your attention…what a problem to have! Kayla had a seriously hot romance with Rad. It fizzled so that he could continue his journey as a rock star in Europe. Kayla was hurt but survived because the relationship gave her a daughter. Kayla has dedicated her life to her daughter for the last five years. Kayla’s best friend is encouraging Kayla to go out and have a life. Just as Kayla starts to do that, Rad shows back up.

Tanner is crazy busy right now. He is leading a crew on a new building. He is helping his pregnant sister care for her twin boys while her husband is deployed. He is trying to start his own contracting firm so that his brother-in-law comes home to job. He has no time for a relationship or dating despite what his sister thinks. When Tanner catches the woman from the apartment across from the construction site checking him out in the coffee store, he accidentally uses her name to get out of another set up by his sister. Except, now his sister wants to meet her. Will Kayla agree to this scheme? Is it more than it appears?

The chemistry between Kayla and Tanner left scorch marks on my phone! I was hooked from the beginning. There were great moments and then moments I just wanted to smack Rad. Rad’s only redeeming quality is that he figured out how important his daughter is. Great read!
