Kiss Me Before FlightKiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you are looking for a suspenseful story with a little romance mixed in, look no further. Thia Finn has masterfully done that in this story. The more I read the book the more I needed to read what was coming next. I could not put the book down. Her descriptive writing paints a picture that would stay with me for a while. The characters are wonderful. They are fully developed and complex. Who knew that one can fall in love with a character like they are right there in the room with you. Callie is a sweet girl who is getting out of a horrible marriage. Her ex-husband is an abusive a-hole. CC Chapman is not sure if he is the right one to be with Callie. I highly recommend reading this book to see what happens between Callie and CC Chapman. Trust me is it worth the read.

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

In Scarlet Princess, Princess Rowan finds herself imprisoned in enemy territory after being caught smuggling…will a new romance be the key to her survival? Will she ever return home?

This was my first time visiting this book universe, but I can’t wait to read more from this author pair! I loved the strong female lead, the enemies-to-lovers/forbidden love vibes, the world building! Fans of fantasy YA romance will love this one. It’s left me waiting the next book ASAP, but it will come out November 2021!

Decisions and Possibilities (Notebook Mysteries #2)Decisions and Possibilities by Kimberly Mullins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I loved the sweetness of this story. Emma was a woman determined to do things her way but in a demure way. I loved this woman, who in a time women were to be seen and not heard, was so out of the ordinary. Emma was about women being empowered. She went to business school, helped victims, solves crimes, and built a business.
I haven’t been reading much in the historical category lately, but this book would draw me back in. Loved living in this world for a short time.

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, book 1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Jaclyn DeTullio

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

Amy McKinley really freaking served with this one. A little slow moving at first, then it all unfolded. Beautifully written characters, an intense plot and really paved the way to a series I can’t wait to continue.

I feel like recently the leading ladies in books have been a little disappointing, but that was NOT the case with Liliana. She was so much more than a mafia “princess”. She showed strength even through fear, and I loved her for that. And Max? *swoon* Max was the alpha male you expect in books like these, but he wasn’t JUST that. Which is why I loved this book so much. It was complex, it was steamy, it was full of drama and danger and twists. I can’t wait for the next one!

The Don (Her Three Immortals Book 1) by Hazel Storm – Review by Dawn Brown

The DonThe Don by Hazel Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Vanessa is a hairdresser and just wants her younger brother, Piper, to feel better. When her neighbor has a conversation with a good looking man, she becomes intrigued by him. What she doesn’t know is that he negotiates contracts with humans for their souls. While in New York City, looking for a doctor who can help her brother, she runs into his half brother and is also intrigued by him. Lurking closeby is yet another brother and each brother’s mother (who btw are not at all interested in Vanessa staying around.)
Opinion
I’ve read a lot of books that focus on Greek/Roman gods and demigods. This one takes on a new approach where the MC is interested in multiple brothers. She is pretty wholesome, which shouldn’t interest at least one brother, but they are interested.
The style of writing is completely fluid with short(ish) chapters. While I can see someone reading this book in small bursts, I personally read it in almost one setting. It has been quite a while since I have read a book without taking breaks. I enjoyed this book tremendously and anticipate the next two (which will be read within the next two days if I have anything to say about it.)

Decisions and Possibilities (Notebook Mysteries #2)Decisions and Possibilities by Kimberly Mullins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book has a great heroine in Emma Evans. She is strong, intelligent, and driven. She also cares about supporting the women in her town to gain independence, education, and a profession. She advocates for them tirelessly, even when universities and companies balk at the idea of an educated woman in the 1800s.

I have not read the first book, but there was sufficient backstory elements added that I wasn’t confused about what was happening. That said, I think it would have been even more engaging had I read the first book. As new ones are coming out soon, I may just catch up on what I missed!

The Bow (Her Three Immortals, #3)The Bow by Hazel Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have really enjoyed this series so far and this book did not disappoint. It was filled with all of the same awesome level of romance, drama and intrigue.

Vanessa once again finds herself in a predicament after having come to the notice of Grey’s mother. With only 24 hours to complete her mission or suffer permanent death, she has little time to waste…but there is always time for romance! She gets transported back to the Overworld on a task where she is reunited with Raef briefly before she is kidnapped by Aroz to Upperworld.

I love how all of these characters have developed through this series and I love how each of the Gods is so very different from the others. The cliffhanger at the end will have you hoping Book 4 comes out very soon!

Scarlet Princess (The Lochlann Feuds, #1)Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was hooked by this story from the very first line: “Death was a hefty price to pay for vodka.” If I lived in the world of Socairns and Lochalnns, I would like to believe that I would be just as sassy and outspoken as our main character, Rowan, and I PROBABLY would have risked my life for a little fun, or in this case, vodka! The connection between Rowan and her love interest, Theo, is great! The overall telling of this story was incredible. I started this book without reading the initial series and was a little worried that I would be lost but Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison did a wonderful job. Throughout the story, I laughed, cried, and was just completely blown away by the ending. I am looking forward to more from these authors!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m in love with Ryan and Sindy in Home to the Outback by Nicole Flockton. It’s such a sweet story of a guy returning to his home after tragedy and starting his life over.
I don’t know what small town living is like, and the world Nicole Flockton created is exactly how I would imagine it’s like.
Growing up in the North Eastern US, everything is so fast paced and most are rude and in a rush all the time. I’ve always felt out of place thinking I’m better suited for small town living. Which is why I love to escape into stories that are exactly like that.
that.
I also love the character development displayed in this book. I really look forward to reading the next book in the series and then some. I will also try to check out other books by Nicole Flockton as well!
In conclusion, if you like a small town love story, that was initially a childhood crush, with reservations and complications along the way check it out!

I do believe I have a new favorite series. Or at least a tie. I was hooked from the first line! I started reading this morning and did not put the book down until I finished it. I’m now going to read other books by this author because the stories she tells are so captivating and imaginative. This book has most of the things I love in it. Magic, romance, thrills, and a strong female lead. I cried at the end of the book and cannot wait for the next one. Several times my heart nearly beat out of my chest with excitement and wonder at what was going to happen. I am so happy I stumbled across this amazing book. Please do yourself a favor and read it. I promise you’ll fall in love!

murder-among-friends” style=”float: left; padding-right: 20px”>Murder Among FriendsMurder Among Friends by Linda Burson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Camille Thurston decides she needs to recharge from her highly stressful life as a PI in Boston. She takes a leave from her job and goes to stay with her brother Zach and his family in Connecticut. What she does not expect is to get wrapped up in an investigation involving a missing woman. Rather than sit idly by Camille feels compelled to help her brother Zach, and his partner Russ. Camille aids in the investigation by keeping tabs on the missing woman’s husband, neighbors, and friends. What starts out as a way to keep track of the missing woman’s husband turns into so much more and Camille never expects to fall in love with the missing woman’s husband.

Murder Among Friends was a real page turner. It took twists and turns that I never saw coming with one big twist at the end that seemed to come out of nowhere. This book will keep you hooked as you delve in to see what will happen next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a nice story. The two mc haven’t seen each other for years and he is her brother’s bestie from years ago. Those are some of my favorite tropes to read. While I enjoyed this story I didn’t love it. All the elements are there other than the narrative. There is a lot of thinking in their heads even while having conversations. So a couple pages could go by before one would answer the other. To be honest I just started skipping to the dialogue so I could stay in the moment.

I loved the idea of a small town in Australia. It’s different but yet the same and we meet some wonderful characters. Her brothers are great and I could see stories being built here.

Overall its nice, lighthearted and fun. I will check out others in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Code Name: Vulture: Dark Vampire Romance (The Order of the Condor Series Book 1) was absolutely phenomenal. I’ve read my share of books with dominant males. Most of them crack so early in the book makes you question their dominance. Not in this book that’s for sure. Vulture let’s you know who’s boss.
I really liked that there were several supernatural creatures in the story. There was tons of action.
Overall I really enjoyed reading Code Name: Vulture and getting to know the characters. I can’t wait to “sink my teeth” in book 2

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow, where to start… I suppose with two of my favorite things in one place, mafia romance, and Amy McKinley. Boom, pretty sure you have the makings right there for a fab read, so it was a no-brainer for me to just one-click this read the moment I saw it. I am so glad that I did and cleared my evening because this book consumed me. Max and Lilianna quickly became one of my absolute favorite book couples that I have read of 2021 and I was hooked on the chemistry that they slowly and painfully built up on my kindle. I love how McKinley does that and she really did a wonderful job of it in No Way Out. I am so excited to see that this is the first of a series and that we will be getting more of this deliciousness on our kindles hopefully in the near future. I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Max and Lilianna either even though I loved how Ms. McKinley tied this book up.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I just love love love Karina Cardinal mystery books from the ever talented Ellen Butler!! With every book in this series I find myself saying over and over these get better and better and I once again find myself saying that with Swindler’s Revenge. I was up way past my bedtime to read how Karina would get herself out of the mess she found herself in once again in this one. I just had to know. This one was so good I couldn’t read it in pieces so I dove in and found out and with every page I was more and more hooked into her story laughing and yelling at my kindle as the hubby stirred next to me and rolled his eyes at my excited reading. People these books are not ones that you want to miss if you love mystery, crime, drama, romance, suspense, laughter, travel, and so much more. Every time Butler takes you to a new place and on a new adventure that will make you feel as if you have slipped on your private investigator shoes and jumped right into the action yourself. I love it and I only cry when I read the very last page because it is over. This one brought us so many changes but I can’t bear to divulge them. I just can assure you don’t miss it run and one-click today for your chance to find out what KC is up to for yourself!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While I may have not read the first book in the DAG series, I was pleasantly surprised with how much I became invested in the characters of UNSETTLED SCORES, and the DAG Team. This story is very fast paced and full of action as much as it is full of romance and intrigue and suspense that kept me on my toes and reading well into the night. I just had to know how things were going to work out for Amy surrounding the death of her sister. I won’t’ give away much more on the story line because that would be a huge spoil but this is one you don’t want to miss if you love drama and crime mixed with a small bit of romance. I enjoyed this one enough that I will be going back to read the first in the series and look forward to seeing what may come next from Kel O’Connor in the near future.

Home to the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, #1)Home to the Outback by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging read which had me hooked from page one and kept me happily turning the pages. Set in a small town in Australia, the authors descriptive narrative really brings Bunya Junction to life and I could picture the setting which made me feel fully immersed in the story. Nurse Sindy Carruthers returned to her home town following the break down of her relationship and was welcomed back and supported by both her family and the community. Sindy runs the local medical practice and is enjoying having her confidence back and not thinking about romance until her brothers old friend returns.
Dr. Ryan Flanagan is an renowned plastic surgeon to the stars and has only returned to Bunya Junction to pay his last respects to his friend and mentor, but then learns that he has been bequeathed half of the towns general medical practice. As he’s not a fan of Bunya Junction and the judgements of the townsfolk he’s unlikely to stay until he learns that the other half belongs to his closest friend’s twin sister, Sindy. The couple cannot deny their mutual attraction and instant chemistry, which came across in the narrative, but will a romance complicate them being business partners. This is a heartwarming romance between two likeable and relatable characters and I was cheering them on hoping they would get their happy ever after. I look forward to returning to Bunya Junction in the rest of this series.

Family Secrets (Whispering Pines Mystery #1)Family Secrets by Shawn McGuire
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book took me a little under 2 weeks to read leisurely, but I could have devoured it in a day had I the time to do so. I’d give it 5 out of 5 stars. The characters are extremely well written, and all the interactions were believable and above all, relatable. The story follows a young woman who blows into town to close- up her grandmother’s estate after being gone since childhood after her passing. She soon realizes there’s more than meets the eye in this quaint little witchy town. As she finds her way through her own issues as well as some odd town dynamics that she comes across, she also meets some great people along the way. I’m really looking forward to the rest of the series and seeing how the relationships flourish in the coming books. The storyline was believable and doesn’t end exactly the way you’d think it would- which I love. I wasn’t completely oblivious as to how the story would end but the ending was a good one and set future stories up very well. I think this is a series that will continue to get better and better. I’m really looking forward to reading where this storyline goes and what other interesting characters will be brought into the spotlight. Great, easy read that will have you hooked and keep you coming back to see what happens next. I look forward to reading more of your books Shawn McGuire, blessed be!

Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle & Elle Madison is book one of The Lochlann Feuds series. I had not read the previous series when starting this book so didn’t know what to expect from these authors. I really didn’t expect to find such fun and relatable characters. The whole book is absolutely fantastic. It is adventurous, exciting, entertaining. I read the book in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down.
I don’t think you need to have read the previous series in order to enjoy this one although I can say for certain I will be going back to add them on! This was a great introduction to this world as a whole and to two new authors that I can’t wait to discover.

Dating the It GuyDating the It Guy by Krysten Lindsay Hager
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Emme is a high school freshman that finds herself in a relationship with Brendon, the senator’s son. Throughout the book it’s a evident that Emme struggles with self-esteem and Brendon struggles with the pressure of who he’s supposed to be versus who he actually is. Although it’s been 10 years since I was a high school freshman one thing for sure is that I communicated with my friends mainly via text versus email like in the movie. I did talk a lot on the phone with crushes so that portion was relatable, but I have never used email communication outside of business. Emme also changed her emotions very rapidly frequently which threw me off a bit. The storyline is solid, but I couldn’t get into the way it came about throughout the book.

Scarlet Princess is the first book in the Lochlann Feuds series by Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison.

I loved this book. It was an unexpected breath of fresh air. It is action-packed right from the start, there’s no easing into the story, it really kicks off with a bang.
I really enjoyed the characters, particularly Rowan. She is really relatable which I loved, fiery, full of personality, and always finding herself unintentionally in trouble. When she finds herself at the mercy of her enemy the last thing she expects is to fall for him.
This love story had me hooked from the get-go. The pages turned so fast, I was frustrated at myself for finishing so quickly, but once you get stuck in there’s no stopping. I can’t wait to read book two.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Gardening, death, mystery, murder, suspense and cast of great characters created a great reading experience for me! I loved the plot and quirky characters that made this book such a pleasure to read. My favorite character was Anne who was the Nancy Drew of the book and so labeled by her boyfriend who called her ND. I fell in love with the tiny details and relationships that were portrayed in Potager Plot. Watson described the characters so completely and gave each one their own persona it was as if I have known them all my life. Such a great read that was too good to put down and I am now needing to read the rest of the books in the series. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to feel like I was a part of the community and had a vested interest in solving the mystery. Definitely a must read from page one to the very end So yourself a favor and pick p the book, get absorbed into the community and see why this is such a wonderful book!

The characters are connectable and make the story engaging. They are creative and unique. They bring the story to life on each page as well as keep me turning pages to the end. I read this book in one sitting as it is that great. The growth and chemistry of the characters made the story pop. This is a shorter story about vampires and finding the truth. This is a really great story that I loved the characters and the plot. I highly recommend this book and this author.

I was pulled into the story from the first word. This is a fast paced story that even though it is shorter, it packs a punch. I enjoyed how the characters brought the story to life as well as being relatable. They made great characters that truly made the story for me. There could be some triggers in here for some but if you get passed that, you will find a great story by a great author. This is a story about breaking free from the past and finding yourself in the process. This is really a great story that brings hope and healing. I highly recommend this book and this author.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. This is a second chance romance story that is written with a lot of heart and soul. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters and the emotional roller coaster they took me on. I also enjoyed how connectable they are and how they kept the story engaging. This is a fast paced story that kept me turning pages to the end. Cassandra falls off her horse, knocking her head. The site that flashes before her is her first love Rhett. She realizes it’s time to go back to see if there is any chance for them left. When he sees her, he is surprised. Will the same things that kept them apart, keep them apart still? Will they get a second chance or will pride step in and take over? I enjoyed their chemistry together as well as their growth throughout the story. I found myself hoping they would get back together. You will have to read this book to find out which I highly recommend. This is worth the pick up for sure!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this romantic suspense novel which follows the story of CC Chapman, a pilot for Trident Security. Conrad works for a team who intervene in life or death situations and it’s his job to fly them in and out of danger. However when Jane, his sister in law asks him to help an abused women he feels more of a responsibility towards her than just flying her away from her husband who is likely to kill her. Callie is sure that her husband is going to kill her and her only chance to escape is with the help of her neighbours brother in law, Conrad. Conrad makes her feel like she can actually learn to live again and take a chance on living a real life, but can she also take a chance on Conrad. This is an enjoyable and engaging read where the main characters are both taking a second chance at love despite many obstacles. The storyline is full of suspense, action and plenty of romance. Conrad and Callie are both likeable and relatable characters and the chemistry between the couple does come across in the narrative. I liked how their relationship developed throughout the story, and it’s nice to have slightly more mature main characters falling in love in a novel.

I truly loved this story. I had a hard time in the beginning to connect with Jayne. Though, as the story moved I really started liking her. She came to close on her grandma’s home after a rough couple of months she was ready for a much needed break. Though, she was met with chaos and a dead body. I adored the mystery with sprinkles of paranormal. The little town full of big secrets just sucks you in and doesn’t let go. Be prepared to be in it for the long haul. I know I am!!

This book had me hooked from the start! In the beginning I was thinking oh this will be a nice family story and I could see the neighborhood in my imagination. Linda Burson is an excellent writer, painting a full picture of this murder mystery! I was on the edge of my seat, and almost couldn’t put it down! I was intrigued by the story of the mystery woman and all of her friends. I won’t give the story away but you must read it! Camille wanted to relax for a summer but her plans for R&R were halted by the events occuring at her brother and their family’s home. I highly recommend this read, and will be reading more from Linda!
