The Queen of Witches (Wheel of Crowns Book 2) by Brandi Elledge

5-stars

The Queen of Witches is another phenomenal paranormal read by Brandi Elledge. It’s the second book in the Wheel of Crowns series, a series I would absolutely recommend! Just like the first book I completely devoured this one, once I started, I couldn’t bring myself to stop. The storyline is action-packed, intense, detailed and addicting. Plus, it flows perfectly no matter what order you choose to read the series in.

I love how Brandi is able to provide such easy to connect with characters and humor all while still keeping up with the dark storyline.

I can’t wait to continue the series and would recommend it to anyone looking for their next paranormal read, this is one you won’t want to miss!

Next Door Knight (Man’s Best Friend #2) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Sheri Schrader

Next Door Knight (Man's Best Friend #2)Next Door Knight by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Next Door Knight by Nicole Flockton is the second book in the Man’s Best Friend series. These are standalone stories and you will not be lost if you read this before book 1. Kerry is running on all cylinders when Willow, her dog, gets away from her. Caleb finds Kerry’s dog and is the rest history?
You have to read the story to find out if Willow has helped make a love match between Kerry and Caleb. This is a sweet story with a good message about the importance of caring for the family. I liked the growth of the character of Caleb as he dealt with his demons and who could ever resist Willow, a cute therapy dog for veterans. I liked Kerry in the beginning but she wore on me in the end. I wanted to see a transformation in her as I saw in Caleb. But overall I liked her and her devotion to her father. This story was a good read and kept me reading to the end. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Vampire Queen (Wheel of Crowns Book 3)The Vampire Queen by Brandi Elledge
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Vampire Queen by Brandi Elledge is the third book in the Wheel of Crowns series. This time we get the story of Tandi, a newly made vampire, who is the worst vampire ever. She is not keen on following the directions of the Prince of Vampires and so how has gotten herself between him and the Queen of Vampires, who wants her Prince back. Like the other books in the series, the story flows and is easy to read. I like the characters because there is always good banter and conversation that help to guide the story. Tandi is great. She remembers her humanity and this often gets her into situations. I really have enjoyed this series and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Queen of Witches (Wheel of Crowns Book 2) by Brandi Elledge – Review by Chantelle Smith

The Queen of Witches (Wheel of Crowns Book 2)The Queen of Witches by Brandi Elledge
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow, Book 2 in The Wheel of Crowns Series has just stepped up a notch. When I thought the suspense, action, adventure and sexiness of the men in Book 1 was a lot, Brandi Elledge brings us The Queen of Witches. Once again the read was captivating, thrilling and action-packed from start to finish and I couldn’t put it down.

This was a mentally, visual read that with the descriptive writing I could picture this read in my mind while reading it, I loved this take on the supernatural world and can’t wait to see where the rest of this series takes us. This author has created another extremely independent, fierce and amazing lead female, that through this story continues to show how powerful she can really be and how well she transitions into this new life she has come unexpectedly into. Once again the immediate attraction between out two main characters Charlie & Jamison is real to watch develop, even with everything they have to face they still manage to find the time to really look at each other and see the feeling and affection that blossoms there.

Another thing that Brandi Elledge brings to each of these books is the humor element of the story, and this time it was in the form of the incredible friend Tandi, I absolutely loved her, I loved her commentary that she would give and the little comments slipped here and there into the conversation just made this book even better.
My only issue is would love this read in dual POV’s there were moments in this book and Book 1 that you really needed to get the male leads POV, I think that would just make these reads that one step deeper.

Overall I have loved everything from this author, there is not one thing I can fault about this epic supernatural realm I’ve been cast into and I’m loving every second I’m reading of it! Do not miss this read, I will eagerly be awaiting Book 3 to see who’s journey we face next!

Wild Bastard
By India Kells
Rated 4 stars

Sad to say this isn’t my favorite of the Dark Sparrow stories. I almost felt Kai was a bit too soft hearted. I don’t feel that strong/alpha man vibe from him at all nor did he seem too wild. There are some intense situations here and if it wasn’t for his brothers I am not sure how it would have turned out. Isabel is a strong female character. She did a good job overcoming her past and coming out better for it.

I DO feel for Kai in this one! Although I don’t know whether to be mad at him or Isabel for this situation they repeatedly find themselves in. Yes her past could be an issue but it could be overcome… if it happens going forward it would be pretty hard to swallow. So I can’t believe there wouldn’t be another way. Cryptic, I know, but I’m trying to not give spoilers.

I loved seeing and getting to hang out with Zoe and Archer! They along with others from previous books make great appearances! We get to know more and more of their characters. This is a wonderful and helps me connect with characters through the books. Plus gives me insight to the remaining brothers.

I loved the idea of this book but I just couldn’t love it like I wanted. Maybe it was the first love mixed with the seedier side just didn’t mesh for me. Too opposite.. not to worry I will check out future books to see what happens to some of these characters.

Run to the Sea (Reigning Heart Book 1) by KG Fletcher – Review by Shannon Fowler

Run to the Sea (Reigning Hearts, #1)Run to the Sea by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Run to the Sea is a sexy sweet story about 2 long lost loves. Through no fault but their own, mostly Thomas’ fault, the two lose contact with each other. But fate brings them back together, hopefully forever.

Fletcher is not new to me but for some reason, she does surprise me every time I read one of her books. She’s a writer that pulls you into the story and takes you for an adventure. Nothing too wild and crazy but an adventure none-the-less.

This story is a stand-alone, meaning there is no story before it. Even though the characters have a past, Fletcher is able to tell their story with no confusion to the present events.

I recommend this story and this author. She is one to watch and one click every chance you get!

The Mourning Islands by Douglas Wells – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Mourning IslandsThe Mourning Islands by Douglas Wells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Mourning Islands by Douglas Wells is a dark and somewhat sombre story that is full of secrets and lies, murder and danger. The mystery and suspense will have you intrigued and left guessing as to what is coming next. For me the story was a little slow at the start but it does have lots of twists and turns and picks up the further you get into the story. Doulas is very descriptive in his telling of the story making it easy to imagine.

If you are looking for a murder, mystery, then this book is for you.

Run to the Sea (Reigning Hearts, #1)Run to the Sea by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wanna ‘run to the sea’ and get away? Well I do believe the that KG Fletcher has managed to encapsulate the perfect little weekend getaway between the covers of Run to the Sea. I absolutely could sit her and tell you for hours my favorite moments in this novel, there were many and truly it’d turn into a verbatim quote by quote review so you would only miss out on the good stuff for yourself that way. Instead I will tell you this is one of those books that just about anyone can relate to. We have all been at that point in our life that our MC’s were in, questioning every decision we ever made and if we are truly where we should be at this point in life. The moments worth making into a novel are the ones in which we make pivotal decisions in what we definitely need going forward. Cappy and Emmy both find themselves in this moment and we get a front row seat to all of the beautiful emotion, drama, laughter, love, and memories that accompany this.

I couldn’t put this book down from page one to the very end and found myself devouring it in just one short rainy afternoon. The scenery and the way that Fletcher writes it is transformative in the sense that I felt as if I was right there breathing in the salty sea air and the dragging my toes in the warm sand. I would say every moment was worth every bit of a five star rating and I can’t wait to find out what will come next from the pen of KG Fletcher!

Love & Ghosts (Crescent City Ghost Tours Book 1) by Carrie Pulkinen – Review by Liz Vrchota

Love & GhostsLove & Ghosts by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yowzers! This was one heck of a good book! I absolutely needed this too! Such a refreshing breath of newness to the slow burn love story. Okay so this is a tad of a ghost story too but really I was taken with the beautiful detailed and captivating love that develops between Emily and Sean. From the moment Emily kisses that stranger at the Masked Charity Ball (Sean) everything changes. She doesn’t believe in that ghost stuff and there is no such thing as supernatural in her world, but she finds herself on a ghost tour anyway, and face to face with Sean again. Then there is the mysterious box that shows up on her doorstep with evil powers. Sean could be the only one to convince her that ghosts and the supernatural are real and that they could be in some very serious danger.

It isn’t your typical read and I was totally sucked in from the very first moment until the bittersweet last page. My only solace is that there will be more books to come in the Crescent City Ghost Tours series from the fabulous Carrie Pulkinen. I can only hope it won’t be too long of a wait. I know I will be checking out all of her previously released writing in the meantime as well. Thanks for the wonderful read Ms. Pulkinen!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you haven’t had a chance to devour the first three books in the Druid’s Brooch series I would HIGHLY recommend that you do that before you pick up Misfortune of Vision, her latest installment. In Misfortune of Vision we go back to 12th century Ireland and get plenty of new adventures full of Norman warriors, Fae Lord, and Orlagh. I loved the Seer she was so much fun to read and brought a magic to the story that truly lit up my kindle screen. Nicholas did a wonderful job once again building the scenery and taking you to the places in the book, I felt as if I was actually there. I could smell the air and feel the wind on my face at times, I felt that transported. I can’t wait to see where the next book will take us. Thanks for the fabulous read Ms. Nicholas!

Secure Desire: A Chase Group StorySecure Desire: A Chase Group Story by R.L Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I must say I am struggling a tad with exactly where or how I want to place this book on a star scale. I have never had the pleasure of reading anything R.L. Dunn prior to Secure Desire so I was completely new all of her writing style. Dunn has one hell of a knack for detailed writing. While I loved that most of the time I felt like I was right there with the characters and in the moment I could have done without some of it sometimes. It felt a tad heavy. Only because I wanted to get to the the point and found myself several times confused in the novel. There is immaculate research done clearly evident as well, but again, I don’t want to feel as if I am in the History Channel.

Bottom line, I adored the story for what it was, and found myself falling in love with Ian and Cassie quickly. I was invested in them from the get-go and was on the edge of my seat wondering how everything was going to turn out for them in the end. Which I must say was quite unpredictable as well! Another fantastic plus. I look forward to checking out more of the Chase Group Stories and whatever else is available or will be to come from R.L. Dunn.

Gahhh!!! This book blew me away! I just absolutely love anything that comes from Gwyn McNamee, especially her Hawke Family series so I knew this would be an extra good treat for me. Now I may be partial so keep that in mind, but I would highly recommend that you read the other novels in the series before you get your paws wrapped into this one good and deep. You will truly have the best experience and and appreciation for all the characters and going ons. Now that I have said my piece, this is a little standalone novella that read quickly for me in just a quick afternoon for being so jam packed full of story. I was so darn happy that we finally get Saint and Caroline’s story though so I was consumed from the get-go. I’m not going to give away any of the guts and grits of this great read. For those you will have to trust me that this is a five-star must have and one-click today! I can’t wait to see what we will get next from Gwyn McNamee. I am sure whatever it is will be just as amazing!

Wild Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel is a romantic suspense that once I started reading I couldn’t put it down till the last page.

This Author is one of my favorite Authors and I absolutely love her style of writing and how she literally grabs ahold of you in the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. Her characters are very well developed and easily relatable. They are true to life. This is the third Book in this series but can be read as a standalone with no problem. I do recommendreading the first two books but like I said its not necessary. Find out what happens next with Isabel and Kai. Can these two have their second chance? Can Kai let go of the past?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The first of the Silent Secrets series is Blinded by Betrayal where the daughter of a mafia boss has her privileged life ripped away from her. Sloane’s husband, Jimmy, is picked up by the cops and immediately starts talking. I kind of get that line of thinking but if I were involved in any sort of criminal activity, I would never speak to the cops. Jimmy holds no real love for anyone but himself so he doesn’t care who his words put in jeopardy. Sloane’s father and everyone else now see both of them as traitors. She can take pretty good care of herself but with powerful people now after her, Sloane must turn to a childhood friend.
Spin Drift is a great sequel novella that left me with a few more questions than I had at the end of Blinded by Betrayal but it did get me more excited for the next book in the series.

My Rating: 3 of 5 stars

Blinded by Betrayal with Spin Drift (Silent Secrets #1) Lisette Kristensen was a quick, okay read that kept me reading.

This short read was fast, steamy, actiony, and a little jumpy. The plot for me was a little hard to follow, as I found it didn’t match the synopsis. What I thought I was going to read about, didn’t happen. At first yes, it followed what I was expecting, then things are really smutty, sexy, and I don’t really know why. What I really want to know is what happen with what I thought was the male MC, he just, vanished, and I just, again don’t know. This wasn’t a bad read by all means, it was just for me, not coherent, or smooth. I don’t really know if I like the MC, there wasn’t enough character development, nor was there proper plot development.

Overall if you’re looking for something quick, with a mix of smut, action and espionage, then give this book a chance. As I said, though I felt disjointed with this book, I did like it, and I did have fun reading it. It’s well written, and the dark tone is consistent and hooking. So please take my recommendation and stamp of approval, that you will have fun reading this mixed read.

Lies Come True (Avery Hart Trilogy, #1)Lies Come True by Emerald O’Brien
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lies Come True is the opening act of Emerald O’Brien’s Avery Hart Trilogy. It is like sitting down and watching a British serial crime drama television series (think of Broadchurch…) that is taking place in Birch Falls, Ontario.
The writer is masterful in keeping you at the edge of your seat and as Lies Come True is the first of the trilogy then she will leave us with one heck of a cliffhanger that I am sure I am not the only one impatient to read!
We have Avery Hart who survived an attack when she was fourteen. Wind forward ten years and another woman has been attacked and she survives as well … are these cases related? Enter Inspector Noah Cotter who is keen on solving the case while also being attracted to Avery … the writer gives us some intense and detailed police investigation descriptions, a puzzle that I was not able to solve until the pieces had been put together and actually, there are still some things up in the air … I have a slight feeling that we need to get to the end of the trilogy to be able to solve it all!

Secure Desire: A Chase Group Story by R. L. Dunn was my first read by this author and I can’t really find any reason to not stalk this authors page to find out when the rest of the series is available. I absolutely loved this book. The characters were strong real men and the they knew how to keep their women safe.

Ian chase is a great main character. He has a chance meeting with Cassie and all the feelings he felt 6 years prior come rushing back. 6 years ago she wore an engagement ring when he met her, and now she doesn’t. He convinces Cassie to go for coffee with him but he doesn’t realize even though Cassie is single, she is very much unavailable.

Cassie is working an assignment with the FBI and is placed at a table with people who are part of her past that she cannot really remember. Well that night, everything come crashing down. Cassie life changes in one horrible night. There are many attempts on her life and with each one, I was on the edge of my seat.
The book had ALOT of characters. Some were known by first name, last name or military nickname so sometimes I had to reread the page to fully understand what I read. This was a dark read when everything is brought up from Cassie’s past and the torture she endured. I’m usually not a fan of dark reads but this was a great read and loved it. I cannot wait for more in this series to get some more of these character!!

This is one of those stories that is light hearted and also has an underlying message about love and kindness and being a good “human being”. While I am not the target demographic, i thoroughly enjoyed this tale and look forward to reading the second book in the series.

As a fourteen-year-old girl, new student at a new high school, Avery Hart is attacked on her walk home from school. For the past ten years Avery has struggled to get over what happened in the past. Nobody believed her story when she was young, now the attacker is back and coming for her.
I enjoyed this story for the most part although I did struggle from time to time. The story got disjointed at times making it kind of hard to follow. The storyline was a good one and I didn’t see the twist at the end coming so now I look forward to reading the next book to see what happens next. Hopefully book 2 doesn’t leave me confused, ties up some loose ends and flows better than the first.

First a body of a young woman is found in a park in the same town. Then a second victim manages to escape, and the stories are eerily similar. Avery works with the detectives and victim to try to help solve the crime and put her fears to rest. Very intense suspense filled book, but I loved it!

The Queen Of Witches is a fast paced and easy to read novel that can be read as a standalone in this series. It follows main character Charlie and Jamison as they search for a lost key. Talon is the antagonist in this novel who is very secretive and persuasive. He seemed charming at first though. I loved how honest and straight forward Jamison’s character was. He basically laid everything down before helping Charlie learn to control her new powers. Charlie was definitely my favorite character because she had so many similarities to myself. I loved that she trusted her but and let her bff Tandi be part of everything. The storyline was addictive and easy to follow since it was full of amazing characters. My imagination went wild with this novel. I look forward to reading more in this series and definitely recommend not only this book but the first book in this series as well.

Wild Bastard is the third book in the Dark Sparrows Series by India Kells. This is a HOT, suspenseful, dramatic and gripping second chances story- full of danger, action, chemistry, secrets, twists, revenge, an evil adversary, drama, intrigue, and romance.
This book is a real page turner, I couldn’t put it down and ended up devouring it in only a few hours. The story was really well written and has a multi-layered and complex storyline that was deftly woven into an exciting and incredibly entertaining read. There were a lot highly charged situations that occurred throughout the story, keeping me flipping pages to find out what would happen next.
I have been waiting for Kai and Izzy’s story to release, so I had pretty high expectations- but I needn’t have worried, because Ms. Kells didn’t disappoint and delivered everything I could have hoped for…. and more! I love Kai and Izzy- they were fantastic and drawing me into the story, and pulling me along on quite a ride!!!
I really recommend this story! You are sure to love it just as much as I have.
I can’t wait to see what she does next!!!

Thank You, Ms. Kells!

Lies Come True is one very fast paced read that kept me flipping the pages.

This is the first book in the Avery Hart Trilogy and I think that it set you up perfectly for the next installment. Emerald O’Brien did a great job with the characters and interweaving them so subtly throughout the lives of Avery and Noah, I was never sure where they stood in the story and I appreciated that. I questioned my instincts a lot while I read this story and not a lot of books make me do that.

The Vampire Queen (Wheel of Crowns Book 3) By Brandi Elledge
5 Stars!!!!!

This is the third book in the series and I have to say I was not disappointed. The author just keeps the momentum going and I was glued to the pages. The characters are brought to life and you feel as though you are part of the story.

I love the fact that Tandi was actually special as well. I just found myself really drawn to her character from the second book and this third book really just drew me in closer. I love how Stephan and Tandi get together. I also found it refreshing that it wasn’t just obvious that they were mated and he played sort of indifferent to her. I love how the author brought the drama around the story and yet had that underlying romance. I will definitely be reading more from this author and I hope to read more from this series.
