Burning Night by Nikki Broadwell

Four Stars

Dreams can mean so many things. Everyone interrupts things differently. Collie has had a hard life. Being with the worse kind of partner damaged more than her mental and emotional state. She had no self-esteem, no will to move and no hope. There are so many women and men faced with this everyday. I was proud and scared for Collie’s journey. There would be so many obstacles and setbacks. I liked that she didn’t give up and kept pushing. I liked that the author gave you a look into another culture. I don’t know anything about Native American culture and this story made me interesting in knowing if the customs were true. The characters were all well written. You could feel their struggles and the insecurities.

Truly Unfortunate (Welcome To Knollville Book 1)Truly Unfortunate by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve had the pleasure of reading other books by C.A. King, and let’s just say that the more I read by her, the more I fall in love with her style. This time, I was able to read Truly Unfortunate of the Welcome to Knollville Series, and let’s just say that it has certainly become one of my favorites.

I love diving into a book that will take a hold of my attention and make me sit on the edge of my seat. I kept trying to figure out what the outcome of the story would be, and let’s just say that it wasn’t what I expected. I’m anxious and excited to continue the journey with these characters, and to see what else the author will do. This was a definite 5 Star Book for me!

An Agreement ( Summer in New York, #3 )
By Lindsay Marie Miller
5/5 Stars

Ok, this is my favorite of the series by far!! I really love this book and enjoyed the story, from beginning to end!! If you’re a sucker for …a sweet and heartwarming romance story, this one’s for you!! But don’t worry, this book can be read as a stand-alone. But you’ll want to read the previous books too, trust me on that !!
Bailey and Carter are more alike than they even realize. They both seem to think they aren’t good enough for one another. And they each have deep and damaging scars from their past. But together, they are a force to be reckoned with!!
Now, I can identify with each Bailey and Carter’s characters. But I did feel a more of a connection with Bailey. She is the strong and quiet type, like myself. We don’t realize how strong we truly are!! I love her!! And Carter… he is persistent and doesn’t give up on what he wants.. ever !! No matter how hard things get, he doesn’t give up!!
I hope to hear from this amazing couple again!! Another wonderful job, Lindsay! I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us next !!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Burning Night: where the ashes of the past awaken the future by Nikki Broadwell was a great 5 star read. This is my first read from Nikki and I really enjoyed it, she pulls you right in with her writing and you won’t want to stop until your done.

My interest in life was as shallow as the dish I kept under the potted plant that had recently died.

Collie is in an abusive relationship and is dealing with depression on top of it. She has grown distant from her husband and is questioning everything about her life. Where did everything go wrong? Should she stay? Should she go?

There is a lot of emotion in this read, I was all over the place. Collie decides to go on a journey for a fresh start. She is a very strong woman that grew stronger as the story progressed. There is a bit of mystery along with twist and turns. The secondary characters added a great element to the story, some I liked some not so much. You can’t help but feel like your right there with Collie on her journey, I was exhausted when I finished. The ending was great and I loved the epilogue. I look forward to reading more from this author.

5-stars

Getting the Goods is a must read rom-com by Elizabeth Perry. This was my first book by this author, but I can assure you it won’t be my last. I completely devoured this book, I read it in one sitting as I couldn’t bring myself to put it down. I was able to connect with these characters from the get go which made this reading experience so enjoyable!

Getting the Goods is sweet, romantic, captivating, entertaining and laugh out loud funny! So funny in fact that I was so surprised at how emotional I became as the story went on! My only complaint about this book is that it ended, I could have read about these characters for so much longer!

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next romance read!

Yet the truth shall make them free. This is a fast paced page turner. I was drawn in in the first chapter and kept there till the end. Job well done Mary Billiter!

Dangerous Ground: Tina and Chase’s Story, Under Ground Book 5 by Alice Rachel
4 out of 5 Stars
This book is a heartbreaking and sad story. The emotional pain in this book got me right in the feels many, many times and I was on the verge of tears. The Sterilization Law is going into effect and Chase, is worried, not only for himself, but for his girlfriend, Mariana. The Sterilization Law is exactly what it sounds like it is, and is just as terrible as it sounds like it is. Chase is determined to do everything in his power to protect her, and he is finding out, that it might not be enough.
Tina, is the privileged daughter of the state officer. She has been in the lap of luxury for all of her life, but when she meets Chase and the Sterilization Law is passed, she is called into action. How can the government force the people into the sterilization? Tina goes undercover, so to speak, to tear the system apart.
You will cry. This book contains many sensitive subjects such as suicidal idealism and alcoholism. If you are tender hearted, this book may not be for you, for the others, this book was an emotional read, but a great one!

Getting the Goods By Elizabeth Perry. This book is in my top five reads of this year for sure! I knew I was in for a good time when I read the blurb but it’s was even better than expected! I was completely hooked from page one and read it in one sitting because I just couldn’t put it down. The characters have a connection that jumps off the pages. I loved their banter back and forth. There were times when I didn’t think I’d stop laughing. Each character was my favorite, I honestly couldn’t pick just one. The author does a wonderful job of writing characters that you can relate to and love. It’s well written and paced nicely. The storyline is a fresh and funny take on a romance story. I can’t wait to read more from this author. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Burning Night: where the ashes of the past awaken the future by Nikki Broadwell was a fast moving, wicketly original read that had me so hooked that I had this read in one sitting, and may have… may have caused me to be sort of late for work….

Not my first read by this author so I knew I was in for something different. Right out of the gate this book captured me and kept me on edge. There wasn’t any time to think, you could feel our MC’s desperation and the need to get as far away as she could. That level of emotional writing is a talent in it’s own, and one that makes this story shine.

There is so much I can say, pick apart and simply gush about. But this is also the type of story that if I give you one hint, one clue, one layer, then it will ruin the allure and may spoil the complex fast moving plot. No worries I’m not going to completely leave you in the dark. I will tell you that this story is sharp, richly detailed, intense, emotional and good. It’s so good that finding the right words to convince you, will take the whole dictionary just to convey what I’m feeling. Book hangover isn’t the word right now.

So please, please, take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that you need this book in your life. So much so that you don’t even know how much. This read will capture you, it will hold you and it will make you question reality.

Happy Reading

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and I absolutely loved it. I love a good Christmas book but this author exceeded all my expectations. This book may be small but is has everything you look for in a story. I was hooked on the very first page and I could not stop. I devoured this book in only a couple of hours.

Jack Furst loves his town. He loves the people and the sights. Jack also has a beautiful woman in his life Joyce. When he finds out that his town might be in trouble it breaks his heart. Jack wants to save his small town but how? He is shocked when Joyce tells him that her boss tell her she needs to move to a more popular town for work. Jack knows he needs to come up with something to save his town and then it came to him an upside down Christmas. Will jack and Joyce be able to save their town or will it be too late?

I absolutely loved this book. It will bring you into the Christmas spirit. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Joyce a very strong woman. She loves Jack but she is afraid her job is going to make her leave him. Jack loves his town and he doesn’t want to see it empty. He loves Joyce and he will do anything to make her smile. This talented author will make you laugh and make you feel all warm inside. I can’t wait to see what she will write for us next.

Burning Night: where the ashes of the past awaken the future By Nikki Broadwell. This story had me on what can only be described as an emotional roller coaster ride. This author writes in a way that readers feel every single emotion written into this story soul deep. I’m a huge fan of stories about people who have pasts they have survived from. Collie is one of my favorite characters I’ve gotten to read about, life kicks her down but she just keeps getting back up again. There’s a bit of mystery in this story that kept me on the edge of my seat and turning pages faster. You go on a journey with Collie and it’s an incredible one. I love the writing style and the characters are complex and relatable. It’s paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

Once Upon a Romance (A Dream Come True, #1)Once Upon a Romance
By: Alex Bailey
My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Once Upon a Romance (A Dream Come True Book 1) was a light hearted, sweet read, that gets you in the holiday feels.

My first read by this author, I was caught by the shiny christmas hallmark like read. I was sucked in right away and, even though I knew how this story was going to go, I loved every cheesy minute of it.

I liked the relationship between Sophie and Ariel, it was more then just aunt and niece. Sophie is mothering and puts Ariel first, even if her boyfriend doesn’t get it. She was a great character and I won’t hold her hate of Disneyland against her.. too much. Ariel is a sweet, smart kid, but I will say that some of the things she was saying, seems a little to, advance for her age. I do get that some kids are more advance, I just wasn’t getting that feeling from Ariel, so her speech patterns and dialogue weren’t matching. Other than that she was a great child character and really added that extra magical layer to this fairy tail like read.

As for the actual story, it’s a sweet romance, and with the magicalness of the setting it has all the things I love about these type of good feel books. Sweet tender romance, heart gripping feels, beautiful setting, attention to detail and, a sweet hot man, that is too good to be true but, you can’t help but root for. Even if his love interest is already taken.

Overall I can’t stress enough how good and just, awesome this book is. It will put you in the holiday mood while making you want to go to Disneyland in the same breath. This book is a super high recommendation from me and, it gets my cheesy, Christmas movie stamp of approval.

Happy Reading.

Guilty Pleasures Volume 2Guilty Pleasures Volume 2
By: Joyce McCarthy
My Rating: 3 of 5 stars

Guilty Pleasures Volume 2 by Joyce McCarthy was a okay, quick and dirty, late night read.

My first read by this author and for this series. It’s a quick read, coming in at only 48 pages, it’s stuffed full of fantasy like situation sand it has a little bit of that cheesy porn feel that you’d get on a www.maturesexmovies.xxx video or something.

As I said this is that late night read when you want to.. you know .. wink.. wink.. There isn’t much character development, each story is quick and to the point. But it’s a fun enjoyable read all the same. Since it is so short, I don’t want to give anything away, but I will say that some of a situations were a little, school boy fantasy like. MILF, teacher.. so on. I would like to have known what Brad actually looked like. There isn’t much of a physical description, so that made the fantasy that this book is, a little incomplete.

Overall this book wasn’t bad, could have use more depthed, not only in the MC, but for situations as well. I do recommend you give this little hot wonder a try, its got some good smut scenes and as i said, it’ll get you a little hot and bothered.

Happy Reading

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Burning Night by Nikki Broadwell is a story of fiction but in reality could very well be truth on some levels. This is a great story and I would recommend reading it. The characters are fully developed and can easily be a friend, neighbor, or yourself on some level. This story is about an abusive relationship. If you are like me, I found it difficult at times due to the fact it reminded me so much of what has been within my social/family circle. One thing I really enjoyed with Nikki Broadwell is that she did not let the abuse ruin Collie’s life. She decided to make Collie a force to be dealt with and not a victim in the corner. Collie is on journey of self-discovery. She will have to decide how to proceed with her life. This story does have its ups and downs, twists and turns, and full of emotions. You will have to read if Collie can get past her demons. I cannot wait to read more books from Nikki Broadwell.

Poor Gabriella sure knows how to make a first impression and a second one too. But it was her no filter – says anything attitude that had me loving her character.

Don’t take my word for how funny sweet and sexy this book is; I highly recommend you pick up this book for yourself and find out.

This was an interesting novel. The author really catches your attention with the opening chapters. I loved following Laurie after she goes into Witness protection. The relationship that develops between her and Aiden as the story progresses was entertaining, sweet, and funny. I loved his personality and his character. It was easy to get lost in the banter back and forth between him and Laurie. Her character was my favorite. She was very strong and independent. She demonstrated that she was able to take care of herself and be prepared for the worst. I hate that she had to go through so much in the beginning with her ex-husband. I loved the small family she built for herself though. I was surprised with the way the ending went. I did not expect what happened. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

Felicity Found (Rogue Series Book 6)
By Lara Ward Cosio
Rated 5 stars!!

Another amazing heartfelt story by Lara Ward Cosio! I absolutely loved it! This book has it all! Love, lust, drama, betrayal and love. Yes I mentioned love again because these stories are full of love of spouse, friend and family. It astounds me how drawn I get to the story that I get irritated when I have to leave the book and….oh you know…live life. So I tend to power through as fast as I can to avoid interruptions. This leads to late night or all night reading or sneaking off just to finish this book.

It’s not until I open one of these books that I realize how much I miss these characters. I am easily drawn back into their lives and fervently hope and wish for things to turn out. At the time of reading book one (Tangled Up in You) and book two (Playing at Love) of the series I was thinking GAH too much information but now I realize how those books really made me a part of their lives. I am easily able to understand and know how, why and what these characters are talking about or feeling….like they are my family.

Although Conor really put me through the ringer in this book. One minute I was pleased with him then the next frustration beyond belief! His flirting and fantasies (Grr!) but then he also has concern of his wife and love of his family. The struggle that Felicity and Conor have is real. Each had their own issues and I could relate to many things brought up in the book.

I have always loved the bond that Gavin and Conor have. It has been tested and tried through the years but has always weathered the storm. But to see them in the park in this book?? These two guys…….bring tears to my eyes they have come so far. I am so glad they were friends from way back and cultivated their friendship to being so unbreakable. Wonderful job on these two!

This is an outstanding addition to the series. It’s great to see how all the characters have grown and improved through the series. This is a favorite series of mine. So thank you to the author for bringing this crew into my life.

An Agreement ( Summer in New York #3) by Lindsay Marie Miller. I have read many books by this author and I have enjoyed them all!! This installment of the Summer in New York Series was no different. This can be read as a stand-alone but i recommend reading the previous books, mainly because they are great!!!
This book was a sexy and sweet read. I absolutely loved how the characters from past books are intertwined into the book. The chemistry and romance between Carter and Bailey is amazing. Bailey wants more but Carter, she thinks has put her in the friend-zone. While what Cater really wants is Bailey, he just thinks he is too damaged for her. I am so looking forward to more books from this author and this series!!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Killmore is the first book of the Killmore series.

I love that this story has a strong female character who doesn’t lose her edge. The premise of the story is excellent as is the overall story line. The only thing that might be a sticking point for some people is that it slows down a bit toward the middle of the book with most of the action happening at the beginning and well toward the end. That being said, the characters are well-written so that helps. I love the snarky and suggestive humor, it helps keep the book from getting overly dark.

I am looking forward to reading the next part of the story in the second book.

Nathaniel (Dragon Hearts Series) by Carole Mortimer
4 Stars

This is a paranormal story about dragons of myth and legend. I love dragons so any story involving them, I am inclined to read. I found this story very interesting. The legend of King Arthur was integrated in the book but the author did a good job keeping it as a back story and didn’t let it overtake the story. The book stayed centred on the dragon shifters, Nathaniel in particular.

Nathaniel and his brothers have been around for hundreds of years searching for their mates. Nathaniel has all but given up hope until he crosses paths with a smart mouthed, head strong journalist. His dragon is roaring and demands that he claim her. Chloe is vacationing in Wales when she comes across Pendragon Castle. A castle that isn’t on any map yet has existed for as long as anyone can remember. She instinctively knows there is a story there and knows she needs to investigate. Her life changes as she’s held captive in this exciting adventure.

The book is not long so the author had to pack a lot of information in this book. Though I would have liked a little more depth in the characters, I did like them. Chloe is quirky and doesn’t know when to shut her mouth. Nathaniel, though an alpha male, tries to do right by Chloe and treats her with respect. The story was fun to read and the author did a good job laying the foundation for the rest of the series. I’m looking forward to reading about the rest of the brothers.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Killmore starts off with a BANG of action. Then it lets you get comfortable for awhile. It’s hard to get a read on Laurie, I don’t know how I totally feel about her and still feel like she has secrets. She definitely has a tough outer shell to crack but cares deeply for those in her inner circle. Aiden, Paul, who can you trust? They both seem genuine and Aiden kind of wears his heart on his sleeve, but I still have a lot of questions. I feel like Dr. Codie wasn’t a fully resolved issue, maybe all these things are cleared up in book two. I’d call this a happy for now ending, with enough suspense, intrigue, and puzzle to keep me on the hook.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Burning Night was a unique story, I really enjoyed a lot of the moments you can’t explain, the events people won’t believe. There were mystical forces at play, more along the lines of spiritual happenings. That part was crazy interesting. I felt like Collie had courage to leave her husband and push forward on this adventure. I did have a bit of trouble connecting with the characters and they all had actions I didn’t totally agree with or understand. Not sure if that is just more realistic, but even Collie, I wanted to shake sometimes. She’s been through a lot in her life, though. All in all, it was an interesting story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Changeup by Mary Billiter is the sixth book in the Resort Romance Series. Though it is the sixth book, it can be read as a standalone. The Changeup is a whodunit mystery with romance thrown in for good measure. This is a story about a woman who trying to hide from her past and a baseball pitcher who is planning his future. Will there two worlds collide? Can it work out for the two of them?

The Changeup is another great book in the series, you will not be disappointed. I recommend reading the series because they are all so good. The twists and turns keeps you engaged, because you never know what will happen next. The characters are very believable and well developed. The secondary characters are just as good as the main ones. Looking forward to reading what comes next in the series.

The Changeup (A Resort Romance Novel Book 6) by Mary Billiter is another ​great read. Mary has done a fantastic job with this story and I fell in love with the characters from the very first page of the first book. ​The story is told from a duel POV which gives the story much more depth and perspective. I found myself laughing at the antics of the characters as they try to get to the bottom of who did it. ​It is a murder mystery, romance story and this is one of my favourites in this series.

Rebel is in witness protection so the last thing she needs is a murder, but to find out who did it, she finds a lot more than she bargained for.

Ryan wants nothing more than to be blue blood and is training to be a deputy sheriff but what he stumbles across in an alley is more than he ever imagined and may just place the one thing he wants most in the world in jeopardy.

There are secrets and mysteries, lies and loss that will keep you glued to each and every page.

An Agreement (Summer in New York, #3)An Agreement by Lindsay Marie Miller
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An Agreement (Summer in New York Book 3) by Lindsay Marie Miller ​is a sweet contemporary romance story. ​Lindsay has done a fantastic job and I fell in love with the characters from the very first page of the first book. ​The story is told from a duel POV which gives the story much more depth and perspective in to who the characters are. It is a heartwarming and beautiful story that is also sad and compelling. There is so much pain and suffering, secrets and loss that will keep you glued to each and every page. The raw emotions in this captivating story broke my heart at times and I could not stop the tears.   Bailey just wants to be loved, to find that one person she is supposed to be with the rest of your life but building her business never left much room for men. So desperate times call for desperate measures and what she finds is much more than she bargained for.

Carter has been living with his own demons but when a beautiful mix up comes into his life he doesn’t know what he should do.

I am looking forward to what comes next.

The Killmores (Killmore #2)The Killmores by Martha Sweeney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just brilliant! The Killmores by Martha Sweeney​ is another ​great read. ​This book continues on from the first one and should not be read as a standalone you need to know what happened and all about the characters to truly understand and value this book. Martha has done a fantastic job with this story and I fell in love with the characters from the very first page of the first book. There is so much pain and suffering, action and danger, secrets and mysteries, lies and loss that will keep you glued to each and every page. The emotion in this book just broke my heart and I could not stop sobbing.

Laurie has been through so much and just living on the edge of sanity but the final nail in the coffin has just happened and she can not take any more and she finally knows what she has to do.   I have been looking forward to reading this book and it didn’t disappoint. Spot on Martha, spot on.

Killmore by Martha Sweeney

4 Stars!!!!

Once again going out of my genre choice and I must admit that I was quite drawn in. There is so much that drew me in. The author does such an amazing job of creating the world in which her characters live. I like how the book is written in first person view point. The use of the past as well to help put the story together is just so refreshing.

I really enjoyed the fact that Laurie was doing the right thing and helping to bring down the bad guys. I found that although the story line was a bit drawn out that it still had the desired affect that I was pulled in and couldn’t put the book down. I really enjoyed the chemistry between Aiden and Laurie was a leading factor that kept me glued to the pages of this book. I don’t often enjoy cartel or mafia based books but I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised with this one. I found that the author was able to be create the sexual tension between the two main characters as well as wrap the drama around them. I do like mysteries and case solving and I found that the author really put good use of this in the story. I very much look forward to reading more from this author as well as this series.
