Krysten Lindsay Hager does a great job capturing the pressure we put on ourselves to be popular and/or to fit in. This book explores what real friendship should look like. It takes a look at how new friendships and new dating relationships grow or fizzle out. The main character, Hadley, learns some tough lessons on the importance of staying true to yourself. Next Door to a Star is the first in a series that should be popular with middle school and high school students.

This is the second book/audio in this series. I loved listening to this audiobook. It certainly made my ride to work interesting. I highly suggest listening to the first audio before this one to help your enjoyment of this series. I enjoyed the narrator’s voice and how they were able to bring the story to life. It is a voice that is easy, fun and entertaining to listen to. I am so happy I picked up the second audio in this series. This is a story Krystina and Alexander’s story continues in this audio. The growth and chemistry is off the charts. They truly are great characters that I fell in love with and they just make the story for me. I highly recommend this audio and this author. You won’t regret picking it for sure. Loved it!

My goodness. I absolutely adored this story. Normally, I can listen to stories while multitasking. Nope! I caught myself more than once at a stand still crying my eyes out or cheering with them! I loved Nicky and Mac ‘s story so much. The chemistry and love just will melt your heart. This story will have you laughing, crying, red in face at times, and just in love. This is my first time listening to this authors work and I can not move fast enough to find the rest. I can’t recommend this story more! You will NOT regret it!!

This is a standalone romance. This book really took me on a bit of an emotional roller coaster. Will they make it, will they split, I really couldn’t tell at some points. I loved how the characters felt so real, it wasn’t hearts, roses and instant attractions. Although there is a lot of chemistry between Damien and Zoe. I felt like it was a more realistic relationship as it didn’t all just fit into place and be tied up with a neat bow. There were tough situations and hard decisions to make, real life made an appearance and it just added to the story. I really did not like Damien at first, he was a bit of a jack-the-lad and was sometimes downright rude, but I think it was in part to his chaotic lifestyle. Zoe also felt a bit lost and unsure of her future. Together they are forced to confront themselves, their future and make some tough decisions. I enjoyed their story and will definitely read more from this author.

After suffering loss in her younger years, Kayla thought she had found love. Wrong! After finding the courage she needed to get out on her own, she returns back to her hometown and runs into her high school love, Jaxon. Jaxon is a recently discharged soldier now working as a deputy. They both have secrets they are hiding. Can they rekindle their romance and heal as they learn the secrets they both have hidden from each other? Hearfelt, warm and thrilling at the very same time, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. The twists in the plot were great. I never saw them coming. What a way to intertwine the tales! Kayla, Jaxon, Viv and Matteo were so well written. Though adults, you could picture them as the clique people they were written as. Matteo as a character broke my heart and had me sobbing. I would love to see a redemption story for him. A truly amazing book.

Mountains Wanted is book one in the Mountains series by Phoebe Alexander. I fell instantly and completely into this story. With an open mind and a burning desire, I devoured Mountains Wanted. Absolutely devoured it. I loved every aspect of it. The characters were the complete package. I envied Sarah her confidence and her alluring personality. She was not afraid to share her opinion and was comfortable in her own skin. It was a pleasure getting to know her. She was a a breath of fresh. And totally unique. James is a gorgeous military man that really raised my heartbeat and my imagination. His enigmatic energy was additive and I could not get enough. Together they were electric.
Mountains wanted was a super sexy and alluring read. Super sensual and utterly delightful. Phoebe Alexander always supplies a dramatic and titillating story. She never disappoints and just keeps getting better. 5 sexy stars.

BRINK OF DENIAL: A Dark Mafia Romance (Sons of Sindicato Book 2) by Sonya Jesus & Cam Johns is a dark and captivating suspense story. The girls are back, and their collaboration is in top form, I really enjoy what they bring us. It is easy to keep turning the pages as you get lost in the story, but it left me wanting more. It is gritty, raw, smouldering, and intense. These sexy smexy men love as hard as they live their lives and I want more. I am not going to give you spoilers because I want you to discover it all by yourself. This dynamic duo knows how to get it right.

Blue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor is a fantasy paranormal story and the second book to this tale. It is full of drama and suspense, fantasy and romance, sarcasm and wit, and magic. What more could you ask for? Again, as with the first book the premise of the story is interesting, but it felt like there could have been so much more to take it to the next level. It was good to see where Everly took the story and seeing where it ended, and I look forward to reading more of her work.

Chased (A Cambridge Men of Honour Novel Book One): A Dark Mafia Bad Boy Romance (Cambridge Men of Honor—Dark Mafia Romances 1) by Felicity Brandon. Felicity is known for her dark stories, and I love a dark bad boy romance story. He is in the dark belly of the underground, and she is an up-and-coming person on the right side of the law. She knows he is bad for her, but she cannot stay away, and he knows what he wants he gets, and he wants her. It is dark and violent and a whole new world, but you can’t help but want what is often considered wrong.

Brink of Denial By Cam Johns and Sonya Jesus had me totally hooked from start to finish. I have never given my family so many death stares for interrupting me while I was reading!!
This story brings us Dane Giordano, a very strong, intense man, with a wounded heart who is being shaped into the next boss for the Sindicato. Years ago he thought he had everything all planned out. He had Milana Lombardi, his very own Mafia princess that he planned to marry and together they would have it all! She had other plans though. Milana leaves to find her own life in the world of modelling and becomes Mila Blanc. She trades independence from mafia ties for the constraints put on her by her career. During all this though she never truly gets over Dane and has always believed that when she is done with her current contract she will return and once again have him for her very own.
Can Dane truly allow his VERY wounded heart to heal enough to accept her back into his life forever? Can Milana fully accept what being back in the Sindicato will mean?? With others conspiring against them both in different ways can they once and for all find true happiness in this intense world? You absolutely have to read this book…you need to know these wonderful characters and this thrilling story.
Ms Johns and Ms Jesus are truly amazing authors creating characters with so much depth and heart that with every step of their journey you are right there with them. I wanted to jump into these pages and protect them all!

What a delightful story! It has the perfect ingredients of great book: romance, rags to riches, period piece, ball gowns, murder, mystery, scandal, strong characters, and a wonderful plot.
I love a good romantic mystery as well as period pieces (ball gowns and titles, I’m still a princess at heart). This book did not disappoint. It kept true to the times and language to the perfect degree that you could fully understand what they were saying and enjoy the different types of speech. The predicament in which the main characters met, their developing relationship, and trials and errors (lots of those), emotions and reactions felt very realistic and we’re so well written and thought out.
Another thing that was really neat about this book was the various character’s point of views we got to experience; which I think really added something special and unique. This sharing of view points enabled the reader to be in everyone’s thoughts and experience the emotions she allowed her characters to showcase; and boy did they have some strong feelings! There were no flat characters in this book.
I adored this book, it is definitely worth the read and I will be looking into this author for other great reads!
Enthralled from beginning to end! I love a good romance, but when you add paranormal to it, I am 100% there! I was emotionally invested in the book straight from the start. The story line is interesting, there are a few plot twists to keep you invested, and Levi is a sweet baby angel, no one can change my mind about that. The story also has a little bit of spice along with everything nice already mentioned. There is a great enemy to route against, actually more than one. The connections and relationships between several characters are also well done. Great read, needless to say I am looking forward to the next book!

In His Kiss is the first book by Ava Alise I have read. I enjoyed the complex relationship between Xia and Jordan. Having been friends from childhood, as college students they have fallen for each other but neither want to ruin the relationship they have by admitting their feelings. Deeper in this book it deals very sensitively with the subject of depression. This is a touch subject that we have a hard time dealing with even though mental health has become such a hot topic. She does a great job dealing not only with the people who have depression, but the surrounding characters and how they deal with the issue. I absolutely enjoyed the book and am looking forward to the next one in this series.

I love this author’s writing and somehow hadn’t picked this book up yet to read. When I saw it available to listen, I took the opportunity to snatch it up and enjoy a beloved author in a new way. Bondurant always does a beautiful job crafting a compelling and emotional contemporary romance. Listening to Royce and Rourke narrate this selection added a beautiful depth to the experience. I truly enjoyed listening to this book and look forward to reading/listening to more from this author.

Blue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor is the second story in the series and is not meant to be a stand alone story.
First of all, I think the synopsis is adorable and I loved the go big or go home statement! Everly has written Lillie as a wonderful character and someone I would either love to be, or at least hang out with! I was worried the second story wouldn’t be as good as the first, but it truly exceeded expectations.
When Lillie finds herself in a similar position, can she and the Zayed find a way out, or are they all spiraling towards disaster?

Yes!!! This book was fantastic. After reading book 1 I could not wait to read the 2nd book to this series, and boy it did NOT disappoint. I am loving the hot vibe between Millicent and Sheridan. Book 2 has Millicent being “stalked” by a hellhound and no doubt a creepy doll. Can I just say, nope no way when it comes to creepy dolls! We learn the reason why Millicent is being stalked and who is behind this mystery. I also love that we still have other characters in this book and you also meet Sheridan’s parents. I am ALL about this series with demons, witches, a nix, shifters, a fallen angel and we eventually get to meet a fairy. So looking forward to starting book 3!

I was immediately drawn to this book as if it called my name. I experience vivid and very real dreams from time-to-time, so the simple involvement of dreaming grabbed me. The pull this book had on me did not stop once it was opened. The author writes with such an intimate style, I feel as though we were in the same room. Being interested in spirituality, dreams, and past lives, I simply devoured this book. Mariekkela: From Finland, with Love by Stuart Ledwith, PhD is an original, historical story that takes the reader back to 1939, in which Mariekkela’s Kari is killed by Russian soldiers. The book follows her life after the incident, and is a testament to undying, true love. The author also has a book titled The History of the Universe: As My Soul and I Remember, and I am definitely going to get my hands on that one to fall deeper into this author’s world and ideas. I appreciate a read that inspires me to consider new perspectives, or deepens and broadens an existing perspective, and if you have never read anything from this author before, this book is a five star choice.

This is it. This book is EVERYTHING- fight with someone else. This book covers literally everything I didn’t know I loved. The romance was there – it wasn’t too much or not enough it was perfect. The smut was also present, also in a perfect way. This writer has a full handle on how to write superb books & I am THIRSTY for the next books. I honestly think this might be an all time favorite in my romance category! – disclaimer: please research trigger warnings following this book : there are a couple of different scenes that would be rather unsettling (not super overwhelming personally but could see other women from some themes being uncomfortable. Patience and Duke go from a drunken hook up and total “I love you” confession after graduating high school – to Patience waking up by herself with no sign of Duke. As the day went on, Patience had discovered Duke had enlisted to the Marines and wasn’t coming back, she was forced to move on. After quite a few long years (a marriage, a child, Patience finding her live goals)- Duke moved back into their small town for good. Could the stars have aligned themselves any better just in time for Patience to get a hold on her very unhappy life. We watch and anticipate Patience divorcing her awful “husband” Greg, while literally BEGGING her to fall for Duke all over again. Upon discovering that they of course are ultimately still head over heels in love with each other; they both have to expose their baggage. Can they forgive the past and move on? Can Duke handle the secret that Patience had kept from him for all these years? Can Patience handle the twists and terms to come as we learn the real reason why Duke ended up coming home from his Marine career? Oh – did you think that was it? NOPE. Brooke May throws the worst cliffhanger of all cliffhangers I’ve ever read – I need the rest of the books ASAP. – disclaimer 2: this is a book you will not be able to put down – I not only finished it in one sitting. But I also stayed up until 3am because I absolutely could not put it down.

This is an audio book and is the first book in The Miss Series and is just under 9 hours. This is narrated by Ariel Royce and Christopher Rourke. This story follows Liam and Kendall. Liam is Kendall’s boss and she finds him exasperating and he finds her irresistible. But Liam has childhood issues and does not really want a relationship but there is just something about her. I found Liam to be kind of a jerk, but as you dive deeper into the story, you soon find out why. And Kendall and her inappropriate thoughts about her boss – what can I say? I think we have all been there!

Carnival of Shadows is the second book in the Black Water Magic series. While you can read them out of order, I strongly suggest that you read them in order. Somethings may seem out of place otherwise. This novel is just amazing. Teagan is a very unique character and her friends just as unique. Leslie Scott is a wonderful and talented author when it comes to urban fantasy. This is a great novel for anyone of all ages.

This is the second book in the Jaded Vamp books. I was captivated by the cover of this book. The plotline has a fast pace to it. I found myself flipping the pages faster and faster to get to the end of the book. The characters are unique and complex. It is a vampire romance that includes vampires and vampire/Lycan hybrids. Kaysee is trying to extinguish the hybrids and is having issues completing the task. Her husband, Dominic, was abducted throughout her mission. Will Kaysee be able to complete her mission? Will she find her husband? I highly recommend this book as well as the first book. I cannot wait to see what other books L.D. Wosar has written as I am intrigued by this story.

Miss Understanding Audio Book by Aubrey Bondurant is the first book in the Miss Series. This is fantastically entertaining book that had everything you could want. I thought the heroine was so amusing. Her inner musings had me smiling to myself on plenty of occasions.
Although entertaining, I liked that the story had a deeper side to it. There was a depth to it that I didn’t quite expect when I started listening to it. I was drawn in completely and kept finding excuses to start listening to the book again. I thought that the two narrators did a great job of creating a vivid picture. It felt like they each captured the essence of the character and brought them to life.
I really enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to listen to more!

I did not read the first book and I didn’t feel as if I was missing too much information, but I wish I would have read it first. The second book is easy to follow along and I was quick to get pulled into the story. Kaysee is a badass vampire, everyone in her group seems to like her and feel they wouldn’t really be together if it weren’t for her. Her husband Dominic, from the way he acts to how the others describe him, seems like a really douche bag. It seems he can’t functionally rule over his people any longer but is stubborn and won’t take help from a woman, his wife. The fact that Kaysee has been faithful to him for all the years they have been together hurts me when I found out of Dominics infidelities, especially since he lies every time that he won’t do it again. When he comes face to face with his maker, Claudia, again, nothing good comes of this meeting and Kaysee is in the dark about what goes down between the two. I hope when she finds out she leaves him for good, and I hope in the next book to see Claudia taken down. I highly recommend for any paranormal romance lover! Bring on the next book!
Red Coat Isabella Dunn is an easy but engaging story that really does tug at the heartstrings. For me this book is entirely about the characters. They are so relatable that I became invested in them immediately and really connected with their story. I figured this book would be pretty emotional while reading it but I didn’t quite expect to be taken on such a journey. It really felt like I experienced the highs and lows with the characters. This is a fantastic book that I thoroughly enjoyed. I would highly recommend it.

Absolutely loved this book! Reading the synopsis and seeing the cover I wasn’t too sure if it was going to be my style, but from the first chapter I was immediately drawn into this story. I was sad to see little Tally lose her mom at a young age, but she is a strong girl and goes off on the start of an adventure with her dad. Their first stop is India, everything, every place, every person was described so nicely, the picture in my head was so vivid. I was happy to see Tally befriend Balvan, and excited to see where their friendship would go in terms of adventures together. The magic of the pendant Tally’s mom passed down to her along with the Angel Jophiel that inhabits the necklace is such a fun addition to the story and watching their relationship grow and discovering the powers Jophiel holds and how they can help Tally is so cool. I would really recommend this to any child or young adult to read, or anyone really, it is a very fun and interesting to read. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Carnival of Shadows: A Teagan Blackwater Urban Fantasy Novel by Leslie Scott is the second book in the Black Water Magic series. This series is probably best read in order so that you get the full experience be character development although can be enjoyed on its own. I thought this book was really well written. Having not read the first book I was going in a little blind however I soon picked up on the story. I loved the main character, Teagan. I thought she had that little something about her that really grabs your attention. The story itself I found to be quite exciting. I wasn’t sure what to expect at all when I started reading and yet I found myself engrossed in what was happening. This was a brilliant book and I will definitely be going back to read the first!

Excellent! I need the next book now! The story is something new and different that I haven’t seen before. Sweet Vanessa is beautiful inside and out and is like an angel on earth, so to know she is struggling trying to fight for her brother’s condition, and seeing all she has to put up with at her job just hurts my heart. I’m in love with Raef, he fell in love so hard, so fast and will do anything for Vanessa, Grey on the other hand, knows he feels something for Vanessa but doesn’t really show it on the outside except in the form of small instances where he protected her in his own way. Vanessa makes a decision that she thinks is the best option but did not discuss it with her mom or Raef, and the way they both reacted made my heart melt. I seriously can’t wait for the next book to see what happens in Vanessa’s journey and to see what will come of her relationship with the boys.
