The author continues to bring just the right amount of suspense and romance in this latest installment of this page turning series. Each book can be read as a stand-alone but does have characters that are discussed in more than one part of the series. But it does not keep the reader from following the plot or enjoying the book. Dunn kept me glued to my seat and I couldn’t put this quick read down until I had finished the whole thing. Just another fantastic book. Definitely recommend.

Dunn – Review by Heather Lovelace
When is say that this book rings true, boy does it ever. My heart needed this book than I even realized. As a parent of a child with special needs I truly appreciated the perspective the author shared. To be reminder that you aren’t alone truly has so much value. This book is one that everyone should read. For perspective. For validation. Just truly wonderful.

What a hauntingly beautiful story of timeless love! I’ve always wanted to visit Italy, and Amy McKinley wrote about it with the same dreamy quality I’ve envisioned it having. I adored that aspect of this story alone, but the web she wove with Sophia and Giovanni and Gianna and Sergio was exquisite. I enjoyed the buildup in the beginning of figuring out what was happening, and the beautiful story that followed. Such a great read!

In this book Lillie finds that she is happy living with the Zayed and learning all about their lifestyles. The love scenes are very well written as is the whole book. Everly Taylor does a good job with both of these books, she paints a good picture of a fantasy world. I recommend you read book 1 first so you will understand what is happening because book 2 starts at the end of the first book and can leave you lost if you haven’t read the first one.

I cannot even begin to give this author the credit she deserves and I will be binge reading EVERY book in this series. Wraith and Sophie came to meet under insane and left field circumstances. Bringing the quiet English girl to a Motorcycle Club filled with grungy, loud, attractive men. After Sophie’s accident, leading her to ending up at the clubs compound, Sophie was afraid she’d never be wanted or loved. She learns swiftly that is not the case as the all men almost immediately fawn over her. With the plot line that stays intriguing, interesting, and prominent. Mixed with the romance element, with a couple risqué scenes (to which I’ll admit I was ASTONISHED by). I cannot even fathom how this book would be any better than it is. This will be going into one of my favorite books of all time. I can’t tell you enough if you want a book that is constantly moving, intriguing, romantic, falling in love, and having some bomb ass sex – please read this book! And let’s not forget what’s revealed at the ending?! Are you kidding me, could it have been any better!!?

After falling in love with the first book how could I not chase the paths of Xander’s brothers. Though these are stand-alone books they do weave together the characters that you come to know and love through the series. This book made me laugh, cry, and get angry at some of the characters and if that isn’t the telling of a good book then I do not know what is. Kayla returns to her hometown after a life-threatening experience with her abusive boyfriend, hoping to hide away for a while and letting things blow over. What she doesn’t expect is to see her past crush, one-time lover Jaxon. She is soon forced to face not only her feelings for the Ex-Navy Seal but also the past tragedy of losing her brother. With her ex closing in Kayla realizes her one haven is staying with Jaxon in his condo. That is until her ex shows up threatening her loved ones and bringing to light the secrets from the past that can’t stay buried. Can Jaxon save his relationship with Kayla when his secrets surface or will he lose her forever? This book has more twists and turns that a roller coaster and is designed to leave you on the edge of your seat. You may lose sleep while reading this book simply because you cannot put it down, it is just that good and worth the read.

I could not put this book down, I read it in two hours from start to finish. As if the gorgeous Navy Seal Xander wasn’t enough to pull me in, you add in the real threat of danger and divine story line and I was sold from page one. Xander must come to terms with a mission that seems to have more unnatural flaws that cannot be accounted for as well as becoming single after hoping to settle down with his girlfriend. He takes leave after being injured on his last mission and heads to his own personal paradise where fate seems to have ideas about his love life.

At this point Xander becomes her white knight making her feel safe and protected. But is he able to protect her from the danger that lurks around every corner? Can Xander and Riley move past their current circumstances and build a future together? There are twists and turns around every corner making this a wonderful page turner and keeping the reader guessing on where the danger is coming from.

This is the first book in The Unrequited Series. It is a beautifully written friend to lovers romance. The author does an amazing job with her character. You can’t help but fall in love with them. You can feel the love and connection between them from the first page. Both characters have drama and trials in their life’s but their constant has always been each other.
After a night drinking heavily things cross the line. They both confess their love for each other and you can feel the contentment and love between them through the authors writing. Could this be the start of a beautiful romance or will the cold light of day ruin everything?
This is one romance you won’t be able to put down. You are drawn into the characters story and at times you feel like banging their heads together because you know they are perfect for each other. Will they see that in the end?

Dragons by Ty Drago. This was such a fun, fast paced, young adult, science fiction read. Its full of action, adventure, drama and futuristic stuff. Andy has been taught his whole life to “Conceal and protect” his identity. He has always been afraid to tell anyone about his supernatural powers. When he wakes up in a futuristic prison having been kidnapped he’s totally confused. Why has he been kidnapped and what do they want from him. Andy is just a high school kid and no one is supposed to know of his powers so why would they want to kidnap him? Andy is a member of the Kind and they live among humans but have a powerful heat inside of them known as the Dragon. As Andy navigates thru being kidnapped and surviving he learns a lot about himself and learns to be ok with the fact that he isn’t “normal”. When Andy is left with the choice to use his powers or die he decides he has to accept who he is and love it! Such a fun young adult read.

Cam has been through hell up to this point. He has suffered tragedy, loss and endless drama and surprises. Reunited with his first wife, Freya, and their children, Cam embarks on a journey for closure on how his second wife, Lae, died. Talk about Pandora’s box, many secrets of the geodome societies come to light. Everywhere you turn there are secrets. Cam is completely overwhelmed by this. There are so many decisions to be made by him and by the community he lives with. This book has not disappointed me at all. The final book in the antipodes series, the author has woven the characters together nicely. You can easily feel them and what they are feeling. The plot ran fairly smooth. I did get lost a couple of times but that smoothed out as I went along. Definitely a series you have to try.

Carnival of Shadows is the second book in the Black Water Magic series by Leslie Scott. I love a great paranormal romance, so when I saw this it captured my attention immediately. I didn’t notice that it was the second book in the series, but the story was easy to follow and I didn’t feel like I was ‘lost’ or confused with the storyline. But having said that, my curiosity about past means I will definitely be going back to read book #1 before continuing the series. No spoilers from me- the blurb does a great snapshot of what to expect so all I will say is- with interesting and quirky characters, a enticing storyline, a bizarre carnival, mystery, witches, shifters, demons, and more- there is plenty here to entice any paranormal romance lover.

Molly Jackson, sheltered college student home for the summer, is faced with the harsh reality of her mom’s dementia. Tasked with making sure her mom is safe and stays at home, Molly panics when her mom disappears. Having nowhere else to turn, Molly reaches out to her older brother, Marc. When Marc returns to his small hometown, things quickly unravel as Molly becomes involved in the search for a local woman who went missing 20 years prior.
This story is so good. Full of unexpected twists and turns to the last page. House in the Woods leaves the reader guessing, even when it seems like everything has been wrapped up neatly. Molly is 19 but has led such a sheltered life her innocence and naivety really came through in her character. There were moments where the story was heartbreaking as everything Molly and Marc knew of their life has fallen apart. Great 5 star read!

Dunn – Review by Dawn Daughenbaugh
This is an escape book. One that you pick up when you are looking for an easy, romance read without too much drama. There is a little bit of angst and a fair bit of steam. I enjoyed that the FMC was self-assured (most of the time) and that the characters owned who they were. There is a fair bit of detail and inner monologue but it helped to understand the characters motivations better.

Forbidden Wolf I the first book in the Shadow Chronicles by C.R. Robertson and is a paranormal forbidden romance story and CR has done a fantastic job. This tale has something for everyone and it will blow you away. I was engrossed in it from start to finish and then some. As I have said before with CR’s writing I was able to vividly picture every character and the world building and wordsmithing allowed my imagination to go wild. It is seduction at its best, sign me up. Reviewed by @jennadb

Ouroboros (Antipodes Book 3) by T.S. Simons is a YA, Dystopian post-apocalyptic, story. I have said it before and that is that this is a uniquely unpredictable story. TS certainly keeps you off track when she takes things up a notch and then bam hello surprise and that is what I like about TS’s writing. I would have to say that this is my fav of the series so far. Make sure to read the books in order to ensure you have the full background on each of the characters and their struggles and lives so far. Reviewed by @jennadb

Dragons is a very interesting YA sci-fi story. I’m not usually one that goes for sci-fi, but this story had me hooked! Andy has been taught to hide his true nature his whole life, but when he’s kidnapped, he has no choice but to let that nature show. Ty Drago has created a very well-written novel with imagery that lets you really picture these otherworldly landscapes. There is also great character development, especially for the main character Andy. I’m glad I took a chance on this book, because I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it!

Red Coat by Isobella Dunn is one of those stories that will tug at your heartstrings.
Sara was in the foster system when she was younger, and that fueled her during her studies to become a social worker. Because of Sara’s background, she is the best for dealing with “problem children”, or the ones who are difficult to place for whatever reason. When Rachael’s name comes across her desk, Sara is quick to try to get to the bottom of it. When Sara finds out she has more in common with Rachael than once imagined, it brings emotions to the surface that Sara thought she had gotten over some time before. With Sara’s past unraveling, will she be able to help Rachael?
As someone who would love to foster and adopt, this hurt my heart. Though I’m not sure it’s an accurate representation of the current foster system, it’s just sad to think this could ever happen to a child.

Next Door to a Star by Krysten Lindsay Hager is an amazing young adult story that encapsulates everything it means to be a teenage girl! As we grow older, I feel as though it is harder to connect with the feelings we had when we were younger. This is obviously not the case for Krysten Hager. She has written the story so marvelously that you would think it came straight from a teenager.
Hadley is the definition of a girl trying to fit in. I would love to have my teenage daughter read this story to help her learn about true friends and that the ones you want to be friends with, aren’t always the best options. Hadley faces many decisions throughout this story, and by the end, I think she finally understands true friendship.

Five stars
Nothing like getting a dream job and finding love at the same time. Gianna gets to go to Italy and restore a century old painting. But finds out there are missing a panel. Life gets even better when she is saved by Sergio from falling into the canal. From there their romance grew as well as the mystery of the painting. I really like this story. It was the perfect blind of romance and mystery. I fell in love with Sergio and Gianna together. The vibes were on point. Definitely check out this series it is worth it. The author gives you everything you need to enjoy this book.

I’ll See You Again by K.G. Fletcher is book number 4 in the Reigning Hearts Series. It can be read as a standalone (I did), but if the others in the series are as great, I will be buying them!!
First of all, I think it is amazing that the author narrated her own story. I’ve listened to quite a few audiobooks and never come across one where the author did it themselves.
When big city stardom meets small town girl, the attraction is undeniable. The best loves are the unplanned ones, right? Unfortunately, you can’t always have the girl and the dream job. Nicky has her own plans and goals, and they don’t line up with Reid Macphersons. When he has to leave Nicky behind, all is up in the air. Will they find each other again, or will their chance encounter turn into the one that got away?

WILD VAMP (JADED VAMP BOOK 2) by L.D. WOSAR – Review by Gail Guerrero
Five Stars
Any book with an amazing female lead gets my approval. Seriously Kaysee is an amazing character. Even when her world felt like it was crashing down around her she didn’t stop. She had some serious decisions to make and those decisions could change so many lives. The most important one to her is her son. Can she be forgiving to the hybrids after all they have done? The world that the author created is simply amazing. The details alone draws you in and puts you right next to the characters. Seriously just by the summary of the book I was ready to jump in and get lost. I definitely recommend this serious if you need something fresh to read. Something not like the rest.
Brink Of Denial (Sons of Sindicato Book 1) by Sonya Jesus and Cam Johns was a great read! This book was thrilling, entertaining, full of romance and erotica, and crime as well. I didn’t see a lot of Dane in the first prequel (I guess that’s the correct name) and it was very nice to learn more about his and Mila’s relationship in this novel. There were a few twist and turns I wasn’t expecting and it kept me enthralled and not wanting to put this book down. I absolutely loved it and I can’t wait to read the next installment of this series!

Brink of Denial by Sonya Jesus and Cam Johns is the second book in the Sons of Sindicato Series. I have not read anything from either of these authors individually, so I can’t speak for their writing style separately, but together, amazing!
What happens when you leave the world you know for something else? What happens to the ones you leave behind? When Mila leaves, she is on the search for her place in the world.

You ever read a book that when its done you want to fling your kindle because you are emotional and all in with the characters. This book………yes I wanted to fling my kindle but in a loving way but yet want to sit in silence in thought. This book, I dont think I can say enough. Hands down one of my favorite reads ever……..I am sitting here and I just cannot stop thinking about the story. Milana and Dane and their love and passion for each other. Milana leaves thinking it was for the best for her future and leave a heart broken Dane. When Milana comes back after some bad things going down, they try and rekindle and obliviously have a love/hate going on. If you love dark mafia, romance, suspense and mystery this book is for you. So much happens in this book, its hard to breathe….Authors Cam Johns and Sonya Jesus wow, just wow!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone who knows me knows I love a great YA book and this is no exception. This book brings back some high school feelings even though I have been out for so many years. Trying to find where you fit in and belong when your best friend moves away. Hadley goes and stays with her grand parents for the summer and meets new friends. You truly find out whom your “true” friends are. As a teenager you want to be in the “in crowd” and belong but sometimes you have to see what true friendship is. This book was a fun read and a great YA book.

I’m in love with the crime family world in this book. Also loved the enemy to lovers, second chance, and dark romance tropes.
I loved reading more about Mila and Dane, and seeing their tension filled journey back to each other. Sons of Sindicato may have whet our taste for this book, but Brink of Denial delivers in ways I didn’t know I needed. The sexual tension and chemistry between Mila and Dane is there from the beginning, however it’s a love-hate relationship. They have to overcome 11 years of tension to find their way back to each other as anything but a booty call. In the meantime they have to deal with the drama and rising tensions within the Sindicato, as well Mila’s former lover extorting her with a secretly recorded sex tape.
I enjoyed reading about a strong female lead. Mila has the guts to do things and to stand up for herself. She’s not the quintessential crime family princepessa to be coddled and protected. Sure she needs help here and there, but she tries to get it done on her own first. I also enjoyed the character growth of Dane; him starting out bitter and jaded, and willing to do harm to anyone who stood in his way, to accepting that he can still love Mila despite the past.
Trigger warning for description of rougher sex (non-BDSM), as well as fictional murder, gruesome assault, and crime associated with a mafia family.
