Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart – Review by Kerry Carr

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened, #1)Her Blackened Soul by Isra Sravenheart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Blackened Series. Its a great story filled with adventure, fantasy and romance.

I loved the fairytale feel to the story and it was unique in the fact that the story is from the side of the ‘villian’ and not the hero, Prince or Princess. I loved the characters they were easy to feel attached too. The story is easy to read and keeps you hooked.

Lady Isra is a witch who over the course of time due to heartache and the attitudes of the people around her has turned into a dark witch who’s only plans is to cause death and destruction. That is until she gets told about a man seeking her out.

What the man whats and who he is she doesnt know but her immediate reaction is to get rid of him. When he arrives however her plan changes and a whole new adventure begins.

5/5 Stars

The Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conynhgam

This is the first book by Conyngham that I’ve had the pleasure of reading. While it was difficult for me to get into at first it soon captured my attention.

Charlie Rob is a manservant and this story follows him through his adventures. Charlie is new to this and he doesn’t want to upset his Employer.

Charlie, follows John Leith to his hometown. There he’s met with things he’s not used to. He’s warned that it’s not like the place he comes from. The quote I choose for Charlie is: ‘Och, I’m all fingers and thumbs.’

This isn’t the first Historical Mystery that I’ve read, but it was one of my favorites. Anyone who loves a good mystery; this is a book for them. I do highly recommend this book! Lexie did an amazing job.

The Trouble With Paradise (A Madeline Dawkins Mystery Book 4) by Cynthia Hamilton – Review by Rosanna Ingram

The Trouble with Paradise (Madeline Dawkins #4)The Trouble with Paradise by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the fourth book in this series…and it just keeps on rollin’. This book is interesting in that there are two cases being investigated simultaneously…and everything is not quite as it appears to be. Madeline is approached by the DA to look into a suicide when the widow is convinced there is more at play. Meanwhile, Mike is approached by Steven (yes…Madeline’s ex) to look into a murder on behalf of another inmate.
There is a lot going on in this book with the different story lines…but as they move forward, Mike and Madeline find that there are some similarities that could link the two. But, if they are linked, then where is the mastermind behind it all? You will have to read it to find out.
This story, while busy with storylines, doesn’t really move forward in terms of character growth. Don’t get me wrong, Madeline has grown a lot since book 1. Maybe I just want more. Both she and Mike are great people and I want to see more from them. But, all in all, it is another great book in this series!

Blue Magnolia (Red Farlow Mysteries, #2)Blue Magnolia by W.F. Ranew
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites. This is a suspenseful story that has a lot of action for all of the characters. This is an engaging story that I found to be fast paced. I read this book in one sitting as I wanted to see who the killer was at the end. The characters are connectable and made the story easy to read. PI Farlow is back in this story but not only does he find himself in another case but his own personal conflicts strike back at him as well. Hank is a country singer that finds himself in some trouble which is where Farlow comes in. When Hank’s song attracts the wrong group will things become deadly? This is a great story that I highly recommend. It made a great afternoon read and you will want to see what happens to Hank and Farlow for sure.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this romance-suspense book. This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up when I see one of her books. Her attention to details and her writing skills are great and her stories are always fun to read. This book is no different. This is a well written story that has characters that bring the story to life. It is engaging and a page turner. The twists and turns left me turning pages fast just waiting to see what would happen next. This is Sam and Casey’s story. They both have a past, one has a really bad breakup and the other is hiding from a psychopath. Casey is a backup singer for a band and meets Sam when he fills in as drummer. Their relationship soon grew, loved their chemistry. What will happen when Casey’s past comes crashing into the present? What will fate have in store for them? I loved both of these characters. They made the story easy to read as well as made the story pop. This is one of my favorites by this author and I highly recommend it plus her other books.

I loved this steamy dark romance story. This author has continued to impress me with her attention to details and her writing skills. This is not my first book by this author but it ranks up there as one of my favorites. This is a well developed story that has characters that made the story pop off the pages. I found it to be engaging and fast paced. I read this story in one sitting as it is that awesome. I had no problem connecting with the characters as they brought the story to life for me. This is a story about Kristina and Trey. She has had a lot of trauma in her life and has been left scarred in many ways. Trey sees her as so much more than her past but has his own insecurities. What will fate have in store for these two? Will they find each other or will their insecurities be unfixable? This is a dark story that could cause some triggers but if you can get past that you will find a story you will love as much as I did. I highly recommend this book and this author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

Such a great read. The story was wonderful and had me hooked, and the characters were nicely written as well as likeable. I really liked Erica, she is strong, independent and just an all around awesome kind of girl. She has had her heart broken in the past so I understand her hesitance to get involved with anyone. I love Matthew. He is really into Erica from the moment they meet, it’s the old love at first sight thing. He will do anything to persuade Erica to give him a chance. His determination and love towards her really made me fall for him all that much more, and I think it is so sweet with just one small first kiss he is madly in love. I really enjoyed watching their relationship grow and the secret admirer twist was a nice touch, especially since it wasn’t an admirer for the person I thought it would be for. I highly recommend this book to any romance lover. I can’t wait to see what is next with this author.

I loved reading the book Trey: European Redemption (Russian Mob Chronicles Book 7) by Shandi Boyes. It is a story that pulls you in from the beginning and I was hooked. It is a dark story that includes danger and suspense. It is a book that has a dark atmosphere and had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. I loved reading about the characters of Kristina Svoboda and Trey Corbyn. Kristina is a woman who for the last six years made to endure life in the sex-trafficking industry. She is intelligent, stubborn, and has a will to survive. Trey is a man that when he looks at Kristina sees a woman who has survived. Although he is a broken man, he finds himself drawn to and possessive of Kristina. Can two people who are broken make each other whole again? Read this book to find out what happens to Trey and Kristina. This is a story that has heartbreaking moments. The treatment that Kristina makes made me feel both angry and sad for her. She is a character that I couldn’t help but have empathy for. This is a book that takes you on a journey into dark places and does have some scenes that may be hard to read about. The story is written in such a way that I felt like I was right there with the characters. Don’t miss out on a book that you won’t be able to put down until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

I loved reading the book Blue Magnolia (Red Farlow Mysteries No. 2) by W.F. Ranew. It is a story that pulled me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. It includes mystery, danger, and a PI that is determined to help his latest client out. I enjoyed the character of PI Red Farlow. He is a man that has found himself with a client that is being threatened. There is a group of extremists and soon Red begins to see just how dangerous the situation can become. Will he be able to keep his client from harm? I also enjoyed the character of Hank Tillman. Hank is Red’s client and a man who is determined to make it big in country music. Now his love of writing and singing music has put him in danger. Hank is a character that I couldn’t help but root for him to succeed in his career. Read this book to find out what happens. This is a story that had me reading far into the night to finish it. I just had to know how it works out. The author does an amazing job of weaving a tale that is well detailed and in making the characters come alive on the page. I felt like I was right with them. There is an atmosphere of mystery that had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. Don’t miss out on a story that is intriguing and entertaining.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Shattered: a Logan McKenna Mystery Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series) by Valerie Davisson. This story jumps from being slow and the pace picking up which made it hard to keep my mind from wandering. The plot is intriguing, but the mystery was a little lacking. The story also bounces back and forth between times and I found it a little disconcerting until I worked out the authors writing rhythm. I also found it hard to like the characters. I am sure many will love it, but it just did not grab me.

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Book 1) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Betsy Melano

One Hot Texas Summer (Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge, #1)One Hot Texas Summer by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dating is tough sometimes

This is a romance about a couple of people who like each other but don’t seem to really want to. Some misconceptions due to rumors and people’s attitudes makes Kelly steer clear of Tate. It doesn’t help that Tate has been in her flower shop more than once a week buying bouquets of flowers. Kelly assumes it’s for a girl, little does she know that’s not why he is frequenting her shop, it’s actually to just make someone smile and feel happy.

The romance and trials that Kelly and Tate experience make you love the characters more. This book was easy to get into and reading it just made my heart melt. When you find the right one, it really is good to open up your heart and let them in. Loved it!!

One Hot Texas Summer (The Prentice Brothers of Sweet Ridge Book 1) by Nicole Flockton

I am drawn to anything that takes place here in Texas period. So of course I had to read this book and I’m glad I did. I throughly enjoyed this book and already looking forward to the second book in this series.

Tate is definitely the type of man a Mama (this one included) wants her daughter to bring home. Well mannered, respectful. loves his family and willing to do anything for them even when it messes things up for him.

Kelly has most of her life in order. Successfully business and happy for the most part. She wants to find love but not willing to put herself out there after getting her heart broken.

Kelly and Tate just work well together as friends and more. They had a sweet chemistry that I enjoyed watching (reading) it develop. Can’t wait to catch up with them in the next book and to read about the next brother falling.

The Debt Collector (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 1) by India Kells – Review by Heather Lovelace

Romance. Suspense. Kells is a master at this genre. And this is my first audiobook of hers. I loved this book when I first read it and the narration takes this story to a completely different level. I felt the intensity of the characters and the romance in a way I was quite frankly unprepared for. This book, hardcover, electronic, or audio, is one that will leave you breathless from the suspense and fanning yourself due to the pure chemistry.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story is told through two characters’ eyes and how different their opinions vary from life to politics. Circumstances allow both characters to see their situation at hand in different lights but I loved this book because all tied together from the characters to the scenes themselves. This allowed me to enjoy it that much more. The story itself is multifaceted in various ways that allow any and all readers to join in enjoying where the story takes them. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this book as I find it educational from social, injustice and emotional facets but it all works out in the readers’ favor with the way it all makes a turn for the positive. One of the best educational and fascinating reads I’ve seen in a long time. Beautifully written by this great and compelling author.

The Abduction of Sarah Tarbell: As Her Soul RemembersThe Abduction of Sarah Tarbell: As Her Soul Remembers by Stuart Ledwith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was heartbreaking from the first sentence to the last. Following her journey was harrowing to say the least. You can never believe how, I wouldn’t say, “bad” (or better off you are in your life) someone else’s life until you’ve heard someone else’s experience. This is such the case with this book.
This book shook me to the core but also showed that there is some compassion with the way that Sarah’s husband saved her in a way. When you take this view through Sarah’s soul’s eye, you’ll realize it was unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before from her abduction through Quebec to Canada, her story of love in a losing situation, but protected by a nunship to later become a healer but it taught her life lessons and experiences her soul just can’t shake.
Reading her story, your soul will thank you as you learn to be grateful for the life you have no matter your background. This one grips you through the good and the bad of this story but with hope for a future in just a glimpse into Sarah’s life in this journey called life.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was compelled to read this book because of my love for hockey and romance. Some girls dream of happily ever after, I prefer hat tricks and goalie masks. This is a well-written romance. The storyline is engaging. Isabella Cassazza did a great job with the details of hockey. Characters are well developed and loveable. This is Emilia and Matt’s story. Both of them lost souls looking for someone to find them. When Emilia was sent to Boston to manage the Ice Tigers, can she break away from her controlling Grandfather? She was to have one night of hockey which turned into a magical night. Matt is a struggling hockey player looking for the Cup win. Matt has been burned by people in the past/present. Will he be able to put things aside and start a relationship with the new manager of the Ice Tigers. I highly recommend this book, especially if you are a hockey-romance lover like myself.

You ever want something you know you shouldn’t? Well that’s Kelly in this story. Shes attracted to Tate, the younger than her, handsome town player. Well that’s what the rumor is around town anyways. When they’re forced to work together for Founders Day, they realize they’re wrong in assuming and realize they cant deny the sparks that fly between them.
I really enjoyed this story. A woman who is independent but still wants a man to do the small acts of chivalry. A man with so much on his shoulders and doesn’t know how to say no or act when offered help and support.

These two were great and I can’t wait to read more in this series as these brothers are all so different.

The Slaughter of Leith HallThe Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conyngham
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conyngham is a rich, enticing historical mystery, set in 18th-Century Scotland. John Leith, the master of Leith Hall, tried to regain favour and social status following the defeat of the Jacobites by fighting for the British army in America. He has returned to Scotland but continues to be preoccupied with his experiences in America and the people with whom he fought.
The story is told in third person, over the shoulder of Charlie Rob which works very well. He has worked with the Leith family for many years but has only recently begun taking on more senior duties. We see him accompany his master to Aberdeen for the first time, encountering the space for the first time through Charlie’s naïve eyes. He is experienced enough to know to be observant but discrete, although he does not always piece together what he has observed which allows the reader to get a few steps ahead at times. Thrown into situations he feels completely unprepared for, we find ourselves rooting for Charlie and admiring his tenacity.
There is plenty of mystery in this story. The reader gets a slow drip of information we know will be relevant, as well as sudden shocking events. It’s a real page-turner as we race to piece together the facts and figure out what happened, and why.
For me, this is a five-star read. A great way to delve into an interesting part of history, and a really gripping story! I’d recommend it to fans of historical mysteries, particularly if you’re interested in Scottish history!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When you have been burnt in the past, can you trust your heart with someone else. Kelly needs to believe that love can happen and her fairytale can end with Tate or can it?

Kelly has had her heart broken and left the big city and returned to Sweet Ridge, there she has opened a florist a job she absolutely loves. Tate has had to take on the honour of running the Peach Farm when his dad has had a stroke but with the harvest approaching and his brother volunteering the farm for the Founder’s Day parade will he have time for all he needs to do.

Kelly and Tate need to work together for the parade but what is this chemistry between them and will they give in and both give love a chance, you will have to read the story to see what happens.

This is the first book I have read by this author and I loved the story and the characters. Kelly although comes across as a independent, sassy woman there is a real vulnerability that I think we all have to just be loved for who she is and is it wrong to dream for the white picket fence and 2.5 children. Tate’s character was an eye opener from the womaniser reputation to his really fragile relationship with his brothers, to the devotion he showed to his father who could not fall in love with man.

I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and wonder who is the next brother or character to find his way through this wonderful writing.

Breaking Traditions: The Shifter And The MageBreaking Traditions: The Shifter And The Mage by Madilynn Dale
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In short, this book is a traditional love story of young love which blossoms and meets the scorn of the elders which is told in a different way in a different world. Natalie is a shape shifter who can transform into a wolf. She belongs to a traditional family who want her to follow the traditions. She is engaged to another shapeshifter, Theo, who is now her ex.
Everything is in order according to Natalie’s parents. Their obedient daughter is bright, helps them in the bakery and is about to be engaged. They want nothing but a happy predictable future for her.
But Natalie’s fate is entwined with a Mage, Alex whom she meets in college. They both meet at a party and sparks fly between them. They are drawn towards each other much to the disdain of Natalie’s parents.
Will Natalie and Alex be able to break traditions for their love? Would they be able to mend the broken relationship with her parents?
This forms the crux of the story. In Eastern culture, we come across this saga a lot more. Breaking the barriers of the society demands a heavy sacrifice. I could relate to the struggle of Natalie and Alex quite easily.
It is a very easy read and keeps the reader engaged till the end. Hope to see more from this author.
