House Valdis Origins: Xenobia By Naomi Valkyrie 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book House Valdis Origins: Xenobia by Naomi Valkyrie. It is a story that had me hooked and I found myself reading it all in one sitting. I loved that I now know a bit more about the character Xenobia and what happened to her before the first book in the House Valdis series. I couldn’t help but empathize with Xenobia and her best friend Urd in the treatment that they had to endure. Will Xenobia and Urd be able to run and escape? Read this book to find out. The author makes the storyline and the characters come alive. The story is not a long one however I found myself thinking about it even after I had finished the last page. Don’t miss out on reading this unforgettable tale.
This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. It is a shorter paranormal story that took me on an adventure that kept me turning pages to the end. This is a well developed story that has characters that made the story easy to read. I had no issues connecting to them as they brought the story to life for me. This story takes place before The Rise of House Valids which is just as awesome as this book and I highly suggest reading it. Xenobia is a female who does her best not to bring attention to herself and she certainly does not get close to anyone. Then she meets Urd and she opens herself and they become best friends. They are both bought by a nasty man. They decide to run and find safety and maybe even the underground movement. What will happen to them? Will they learn the price of their rebellion? I loved these characters. They are strong and determined. They really just made the story for me. They pulled me into their story with ease and kept it engaging. I loved watching Xenobia grow throughout the story. I highly recommend reading this book and this author.
YES!! I was so excited to get my hands on this short but packed full of everything I didn’t even know I needed after reading the 1st of this series. I wasn’t even completely aware of all the questions I had after reading The Rise of House Valdis. What I really liked was that even though this comes before that part it worked perfectly reading it after.
This is a super short story but didn’t feel that way. I think I read it in about 15 – 20 minutes but the content made it feel like a full length novel. It was so easy to get lost in, I had to slow down my reading. It was intense and I could almost see it all happening, I loved that remembering back to the 1st book I always wondered when Xen’s inner dialogue would mention Urd, Now I understand.
Normally I would say I needed more, but in this case the time jumps were perfect and it gave me everything I needed with none of the unneeded fluff. I can not wait for book 2 of this series and I might even read this and the first again before that.
Awesome story, awesome series and this author is simply amazing!! She has taken a genre I don’t normally choose and has made me completely anxious for the next!
Shooting Star by Xana Jordan is book one of the Back Door Records series. This is the first book I have read from this author and it did not disappoint.
Aiden, as a music agent, needs to find an opening act for his band and what better way then to hold auditions, especially since they are running out of time. He didn’t expect to find Aria. Aria is everything he’s looking for and even a what he’s not looking for. Her voice is so mesmerizing. Neither of them were expecting the intense connection they have but will they be able to make something of it?
Nothing I can say will do this book justice but it was so great! I didn’t want to put it down! I highly recommend giving this book a chance.

Love Song: A friends-to-lovers rock and roll romantic suspense by KG Fletcher
5+++ Stars
*sigh*
I’ll start by saying that this author crept up on me while reading her Southern Promises series, which if you haven’t read go one click right now. There’s something about her style, and the way she handles character dialogue and describes just enough of the scenes around the characters, and the characters that make me feel like I’ve literally crawled into the books she writes. I enter a comfort zone when I open one of her stories and then lose all track of real life and then sit in sadness when I finish. If I haven’t stressed it enough this author is absolutely one of my favorites ever. Completely Amazing!
This story was no different as far as how much I loved reading it, it was kind of awesome though hearing about familiar towns and highways as I lived up there, just a bit north of Cumming, but my brother and his family still reside in Cumming! That made it all feel even more real and familiar. There was one part where I wanted to shout a few shortcuts I know of, as I was saying Nooooo do not get on 400!! LOL
The added suspense and edge of my seat reading was a complete surprise to me, it had me all messed up and the emotions afterwards were so hard. I fell hard for Sam and Casey and loved their story, as well as Gwyneth. I wanted to hug her so tight, but another player in this book won my heart pretty quick as well and that was John! This story weaved so much love, loyalty, bonds between sisters, danger, suspense, and heart pounding moments, you really don’t want to miss out. I can’t recommend it high enough!
I will have all of this author’s books sitting on my bookshelf as when I reread them all I want them in my hands.

Better Than Goodbye by Kinney Scott a fabulous four-star read. This is Ventura book one and shows promise for number two. I was surprised by this one, and surprised I hadn’t read the author before, it was a very pleasant surprise, this one dragged you into the story and made you angry with the characters, angry with the stubbornness the main characters feel, but it wasn’t just that, Amanda and Kent were real and the romance and love they show is flawed and complex and full of real drama. I am a sucker for second chance romance, and this just brought something special, if it wasn’t for a couple of spots that were too overdone it would have been a five-star read.

Shooting Star (Back Door Records Book 1) by Xana Jordan is a captivating romance story. The chemistry between the two main characters is intense but great and makes you believe in great things. I felt the connection with the main characters, and I loved the banter between them. The emotions in the book with leave you feeling a little raw at times. Xana has done a great job in writing this magical story and I love the premise and the way she developed it and brought it all together.

Falling For the Texanis the second book in the Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge seriesby Nicole Flockton. This is a sweet contemporary romance, with an opposites attract factor, and a little drama to keep things interesting. Tyler Prentice has put everything he has on the line to fulfill his dream of opening a winery. There is a lot at stake, and he needs it to succeed. With the launch in mind, he’s going to need the right kind of branding. Hiring an effective marketing consultant should ensure success- right? But he is left wanting when the consultant, Gianna (Gia), makes her presentation. What happens next makes for an enjoyably sweet read. Looking forward to more from Ms. Flockton.

Deception by Victoria Saccenti is a sexy military romance story where revenge is the name of the game. The story is a little different from your norm and I liked that. Joe is a Dominant he has Hunter in his sights and with his sexy good looks he knows just how to reel them in. I enjoyed the story premise and Victoria’s writing style. There were a couple of the characters I could have done without but overall, I liked the MC’s. Truths are revealed but trusts are broken and may never heal. It is an emotionally charged story as past horrors are brought to the present.

Better Than Goodbye (Venture Book 1) by Kinney Scott
How have I managed to not find this author before now? I’m not sure how it happened but I’m glad I have found her. And I have already grabbed the first book in her last series to get started on them just as soon as possible.
This was not your typical second chance story and I think that is one of the things I liked about it.
Kent and Amanda had a special relationship starting back when they were kids in high school. There was a pull that neither one of them could deny. Watching them struggle through the years was tough but most relationships have their ups and downs. I just wish they talked to each other as much as they talked to their friends.
I love the fiesty Babette and the shy Matilda and hope to see more of both of them in the future.
Very enjoyable story and looking forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Kinney Scott has a knack for writing a sweet romance novel that kept me glued to the kindle to find out how these characters would come to find their happily ever after. I wasn’t sure what to expect with Better Than Goodbye, the first in the Venture series from her, as I have only read one other novel by her before, but this one was probably my favorite so far and I will definitely be back for more in this series.
This was the story of Amanda and Kent. Amanda leaves and goes to California to follow and pursue her dreams, but she leaves behind pieces of her heart with Kent and the dream to be with him. Things get interesting when Kent and Amanda are brought back into each other’s lives. Will they be able to find the love and hold on to it this time? I was really engrossed in these two and their story from the very first page until the very last and I was never one moment disappointed or bored with how things were going to turn out. I look forward to seeing what we will get next from this series!

I was really excited to get my hands on this second book of the Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge series from Nicole Flockton, Falling for the Texan. I knew I wanted to read this the second I finished book one and I am happy to report that I loved it just as much if not more than I was expecting to. We got to go back to the sweet town of Sweet Ridge in Texas, and I was instantly transported to the vineyards and fell in love with the setting and the way the author paints the scenery.
I was excited to get into the relationship and the way Flockton built the slow building relationship between Ty and Gia. These two have some pretty obvious attractions but it isn’t an easy road, and the realistic way they do come together makes this story more believable and relatable, something I do value in romance novels. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book and meet the characters in that one in ways we may not see coming!

Her Blackened Soul (Blackened Series Book 1) By Isra Sravenheart. This story was a bit outside my comfort zone but was enjoyable and I look forward to more in this series. This author is also new to me and I like the writing style. The characters are complex and pulled me in effortlessly and I found myself lost in the pages. When I first started I didn’t feel an immediate draw but I didn’t let that stop me and I’m glad to say it had my full attention quickly. It’s a very unique storyline that I for one haven’t seen before and I think that’s what I liked most about it. The storyline is paced nicely never feeling rushed. It’s a creative storyline that I’m excited to see more about. Four stars and recommended.

Finding Ruth: A Daughter’s Quest to Discover Her Mother’s Past by Cynthia Hamilton
This is the first book I’ve read by the author and I’ve got to say that I really enjoyed this. This won’t be the last book I’ll read by Hamilton.
This follows Cindy in her mom’s journey. She goes through her mother’s things to find who her mom was in the past. This hit close to home as a family member went down the same path Ruth did.
Ruth can no longer remember anything of who she once was. Finding herself over the years has stopped as she depends on her kids. Her past is no longer there and there are days she doesn’t know who she is. The quote I choose for Ruth is: “Do you see those trees right there? Would you believe, every day when I walked to school, I’d walk right by those trees…and here they are!”
I do highly recommend this for anyone who loves an emotional read.

This is a titillating romance. The story is sexy from beginning to end. Joe is a Dominant hell bent on revenge. He has Hunter in his sights and he never misses his mark. Hunter is broken and accepts the miserable life she leads, believing that she deserves it. She never thought that she could heal until she met Joe. He I trod yes her to the world of Don/Sub and she finds a peace that she never knew existed. Karma turns on Joe and he finds himself ensnared in her innocence. The truth will always come out, no matter what. Can these two find a way through the disaster? You need to read and find out.
The scenes between these two are incredibly hot! The story will keep you interested until the end. I loved the depth of the two main characters. This is my first book from this author and it definitely won’t be the last.

We all have those authors whose books we will purchase without even reading what the actual book is about because we love that author so much. Cynthia Hamilton is that author for me. I LOVE her writing style and the way she creates a story so in depth it’s like you’re an active member of the story or at the very least- watching it like a movie. This is my 4th Madeline Dawkins Mystery book, and I cannot wait for another one. She struck gold with this series. I love Maddie and Mike to no end! This book will give you multiple different scenarios for a couple of cases that have been dumped on the duo. Will Steven Ridley be a problem for them this go around? What other kinds of trouble can these two with their new crew at MDPI get into? Read to find those answers and so many more.

This is the first book I’ve read by Mrs. Mannersly, but it will not be the last. The book was written amazingly and it felt like I transferred into the book. Drawn to Him will draw you in.
Erica, owner of a paint store, finds herself in a bit of a predicament and a handful of people help her out. When she has an accident and meets a doctor her life changes. Will be for the better or for the worse? The quote I choose for Erica is: “You didn’t. Just kiss me.”
Matthew, a doctor, goes to a life paint class only to find the one even though he wasn’t looking. He’d met her the day before when she had an accident, but he knew she was it for him. Things get troubling, but it brings him closer to her. The quote I choose for Matt is: “I’m always going to be here for you. Whenever you need me. You can depend on me, Erica.”
This is a highly recommended book for anyone who loves a damn good romance. With a bit of drama thrown in.

Falling For The Texan by Nicole Flockton is the second book in the Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge series. This book is a standalone book as it follows different main characters. This is such a sweet, heartwarming story that I enjoyed just as much as the first book. The main characters were so likeable and engaging. They are the kind of characters that you just lose yourself in for the afternoon as you read about their journey. The author has successfully created a strong series and I like the fact that we get to go back into this family each time we get a new book. I liked the familiarity it causes and for me it makes it so much easier to get straight into the books. I thought this one was very well written and it has definitely got me looking forward to the next book.

Better Than Goodbye is the first book in the Venture series by Kinney Scott. It is also the first book that I have read by this author. I used to be bad for sticking to the same author’s all the time but now I’m more likely to take the plunge on author’s I haven’t read before if the blurb ‘speaks’ to me. I’m so glad that I’ve changed this mentality as I’ve discovered many new authors I’d have never read before. If this book is anything to go by then I’ll definitely be reading more of Kinney Scott’s work. I’m already looking forward to reading more of this series to see what happens to some of the characters from this one in the future. Better Than Goodbye is a great second chance romance that had me pulled into the story from the very beginning and did not let me go. The story is very well written and flows very well at a good pace. I did feel that the pace was a bit quick at the beginning when we were getting the past history of Amanda and Kent but then it settled as it came to the present day and moved at a much better pace. I loved the characters of Kent and Amanda and their sexual chemistry is off the charts HOT! Kinney sure knows how to write a sizzling story filled with drama that makes it hard to put the book the book down when real life sadly gets in the way. In addition to Kent and Amanda there is a great secondary cast that I’m hoping to read more about in future books in this series.

This is a rock star romance with great characters and a storyline that keeps you turning the pages. Record label agent, Aiden loves music and being involved in all aspects of the industry. When he auditions Aria, a sultry singer for a band to open the show for his main group whilst on tour, he realises she’s not just perfect for the band but also for him. The chemistry between Aiden and Aria is instant and sizzles off the page. I enjoyed seeing how there relationship developed and Jordan finished the book leaving me wanting more. As well as the romance and chemistry between the main characters the storyline also had plenty of drama and fascinating secondary characters as well. The book flowed well and was a light hearted and enjoyable read. I’m looking forward to reading book two in this series.

A wonderful historical romance, which is book three in Bianca Blythe’s, ‘The Duke Hunters Club’ series. I happily read it as a standalone story, however the characters had been introduced in a previous book and how they met was referred to in this book, but enough backstory was given to enjoy this novel. The storyline had a bit of an enemies to lovers feel to it with a historical twist. Genevieve and her family have rented a cottage in Cornwall as due to her fathers financial difficulties they had to leave there home in the Lake District. Meanwhile, Sebastian, the Duke of Sandridge, turns up for a much needed holiday at his cottage in Cornwall to find that not only has it been rented but to a woman, Genevieve who he despises. Genevieve is determined that the grumpy Duke will not take her families cottage away from them. Genevieve and her mother spot an opportunity when Genevieve rescues Sebastian following a swimming accident and when he wakes up with amnesia, Genevieve’s mother announces that Genevieve and Sebastian are actually married. The only problem is what will happen once the Duke regains his memory, no spoilers, I recommend you read this fun and enjoyable book. The authors wonderful descriptions of the Cornwall coast are so detailed that I felt I was actually there with Genevieve and Sebastian, I was fully immersed in their story. The main characters are very likeable and realistic and I loved the banter between Genevieve and Sebastian. Genevieve’s mother was also a lovely character. The storyline flowed nicely with a great narrative and enough drama to keep me hooked until the last page. I am keen to read the two previous books in this series now.

This was a new author to me, but when I read the synopsis, I knew that I needed to read this book. I am so glad that I found her and her books. A Submissive, a Dominant and BDSM this was right in my wheelhouse. Throw in a sexy military man and I couldn’t get this book open fast enough. Joe is seeking out revenge. He is looking for the person that sent his friend and teammate a letter…. Hunter is his target, she finds herself drawn to Joe. The story will pull you in and you won’t be able to put this book down until the very end…. I am looking forward to reading more from Ms. Saccenti.

Love Song: A friends-to-lovers rock and roll romantic suspense by KG Fletcher is a beautiful captivating story. This was my first book by this author, and I am in such awe that I have a list of other books to read by her on my TBR. I was having a rough week and this book helped pull me out of it. Sam and Casey have a connection from the beginning that is off the charts. Both these characters have a rough past and are trying to handle things in their own ways. What happens when Casey gets a terrifying text? Can the two keep their relationship or will it push him away? You will LOVE this book.

This is a great realistic romance. I like how the start of the story shows key moments in both Kent and Amanda’s life which turns them into the adults they become. The key moments were shown in a short way which was ideal as anything more would have made them too long and the book drag.
It was a roller coaster of emotions from the start and was relatable. Most people can identify with the story of your first love and then circumstance in life meaning you drift apart.
Kent and Amanda were sweethearts at school and when their careers take them in different direction their love is lost. Or so they think.
That is until Amanda returns and all the old feelings resurface. Will this second chance be enough to show Kent and Amanda how much they need to make their relationship work or will they separate again and lose the love of their lives for the second time.

The Walls Between Us: A Borderland Love Story is a love story at heart. It is also very thought provoking regarding immigration, human trafficking, and other issues on both sides of the U.S./Mexico border. Ms. McGahan not only writes about the border conflicts and issue, she also add details of the beautiful desert scenery of the desert. The story sucked me in from the beginning. The story shares so many aspects of life – heartache, cultural diversity, the strength of unconditional love, and so much more.

This genre is what I normally go for, but this series has done really shown me a different side to the crime/mystery genre and I have grown to really enjoy it. Cynthia Hamilton has once again drawn me into this read and made me forget everything around me! It had me turning the pages quickly wanting to find out more. This book is filled with suspense, mystery, action and leaves you guessing what could happen next. I can’t wait to see what will happen next in this series until then I highly recommend this read!

Shattered: Rhodes Family Book 1 By Lisa Wood 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Shattered: Rhodes Family Book 1 by Lisa Wood. It is a story that is romantic and steamy. It had the temperature in the room rising. I loved reading about the characters of Olivia and Gabriel. Olivia is a woman who is intelligent and beautiful. She is also a woman who has left her old life behind. That includes everything that came with it. Then she meets Gabriel. Gabriel is a man who is handsome, charming, and knows how women react to him. He is not the settling down with one-woman type. Then he meets Olivia. There is intense chemistry and attraction between Olivia and Gabriel. Read this book to find out their story. This is a wonderful story that had me hooked from the very beginning. I found myself reading it all in one sitting. I just had to know what happens between Gabriel and Olivia. I grew to care about them with each chapter that I read. The other additional characters introduced are wonderful to read about as well. This is a story that has swoon-worthy scenes. Don’t miss out on an exciting and entertaining book to read. I highly recommend reading it.

Rose by Any Other Name (The Sisters, Texas Mystery Series, Book 10) By Becki Willis 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Rose by Any Other Name (The Sisters, Texas Mystery Series, Book 10) by Becki Willis. It is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning. I loved reading about the mystery woman Rose Belvedere who has just moved into The Sisters. With her arrival comes suspicions and a dead body. What will Chief Brash deCordova and Madison find out about this newcomer? What is going on in The Sisters? Read this book to find out. This is a story that has adventure, suspense, and mystery. The book had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. It also has amazing and colorful characters that I loved reading about. The author does a wonderful job of making both them and the storyline come alive. I felt like I was right there with them as their investigations start and deepen. There are also humorous moments that had me laughing at the bantering and interactions. The setting for the story is in a small town so everyone knows and hears about what goes on all the time. I could relate as I live in a rural, small town. Don’t miss out on an intriguing and entertaining story that I didn’t want to put down until I had finished the last page. I highly recommend it be added to the top of your TBR list.

I thought this book was a sweet one and it was a great introduction to a new to me author! This book was well written and i was pulled in from page one and didn’t come back up for air until the very last page. It was engaging and i thought the main characters were fantastic. They really made this story that much better and i couldn’t help but like them. Amanda is awesome. She goes after her dream job but in doing so she makes a big sacrifice to her love life and she leaves her love Kent behind. But fate has a different idea and Her and Kent may get the second chance that Amanda’s asking for.. But first she has to convince Kent that they’re meant to be. This story was fast paced and i really did like it a lot. I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future and i would recommend this book to a friend. Happy Reading!
