Everyday Enchantments by Maria F. DeBlassie
Four Stars

Everyday Enchantments: Musings on Ordinary Magic & Daily Conjurings by Maria F. DeBlassie is a beautiful group of essays that make you want to savor every passage. This book took me a couple of days but it made me think. This is the first book I have read by this author and I look forward to reading more by her. Each essay is a musing of everyday ordinary events and the magic you find when you take the time to look. It made me want to take things in my busy life and slow down and enjoy the little things. I highly recommend this book and will definitely be re-reading it in the future.

Mad About Matt By Theresa Paolo – Review by Emily Brockschmidt

Mad About Matt (Red Maple Falls #1)Mad About Matt by Theresa Paolo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Mad About Matt” is the first book in the Red Maple Falls series by Theresa Paolo. Matt is the oldest of six siblings and the local sheriff in Red Maple Falls, the small town he was born and raised in. Seventeen years ago, he fell in love with Shay, a beautiful young woman who lived in New York but spent her summer vacations in Red Maple Falls with her grandparents. They haven’t spoken in years, but the feelings are still there. Matt is such a great male lead character, hometown boy, loyal to family and friends, helps out his parents and grandparents, what a catch! He is one of those characters you root for even if he isn’t the underdog. Shay seems to balance him out very well when he gets overly macho bossy to her and I love that! She doesn’t like to be told what to do after being bossed around for so many years and it’s wonderful to see a female character stand up for her life and love. Shay following her dreams and opening her own bakery is such a great way to honor her passions in life. These characters were so fun to read about, I hated to reach the end of the book. I am very happy to see that the Red Maple Falls series is nice and long and I can’t wait to read each one! So, yeah, five full stars to Theresa Paolo and “Mad About Matt!”

A Must for Christmas: A Darling Cove NovellaA Must for Christmas: A Darling Cove Novella by Deborah Garland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“A Must for Christmas” by Deborah Garland is a wonderful novella in the Darling Cove series, so make sure to read the previous novels first! Deborah Garland gives us another glimpse into the lives of Greg and Faith as they prepare for the birth of their twins at Christmas. This sweet, short story is heart wrenching, sweet and perfect for reading around this time of year! I absolutely adore all the characters in this series and love how Deborah Garland incorporates all of the family members from previous novels into each story so the reader can keep up with the fast changing lives of the Mallory family. This family is the epitome of family to me, lives close but knows boundaries, together through thick and thin and always bands together when someone is in need. These reasons and so many more make this series so special. This book felt like a natural ending to the series, as much as I don’t want it to end! I’ll still hope that Deborah Garland finds another way to keep us all in the loop with the Mallory’s! This was a great way to top off the series and I give “A Must for Christmas” five stars!

What a gripping book. I couldn’t put it down. Super emotional for an also pregnant mom. I was crying and feeling all the emotions as I read the story. It was a great plot with great description. The author has a great writing style as she uses captivating wording to show the power of the story! I would like to know more of what happens in this story with these characters. They pull you in with their love and story. It’s more than just some Christmas story. It’s where you find hard times, struggle, and love in the middle of the Christmas!

Shoot Me: A Lie To Me Novel by Lynda Filler – Review by Maura Harper

Shoot Me (Lie to Me #2)Shoot Me by Lynda Filler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 Stars

This story starts where “Lie to Me” left off – “three weeks and eighteen hours” later to be exact. The female protagonist has just gotten a “three book deal” and has to come up with material to write, so she goes on a travel adventure to find inspiration. (Is this how authors get their groove? hehe)

“The best way to get over one man was to play with another, and another, and maybe, she could forget.” So her adventure begins.

The grammar in this book is different from what I am used to reading and the placement of punctuation threw me off and took me out of the story often. The story is told from present pov and past in the form of journals. The reader is able to see the motivation of the m/c as we read along.

It’s a story filled with intrigue and boys. This was not my favorite book of the year, but I appreciate the effort any author puts into publishing their work.

A Must For Christmas by Deborah Garland is a novella in her Darling Cove series. This book can be read as a stand-alone although if you read the previous books first you will get all the characters build up.
This book makes a great addition to this series. It showcases the same great writing style that we have seen throughout all of the books. Although shorter than the others, as expected, it didn’t feel rushed and I was still as engaged with the characters as I was with the others.
An enjoyable book and one I would recommend reading.

An Agreement (Summer in New York Book 3) By Lindsay Marie Miller. I continuously am finding myself up well into the late hours when I start a book by this author because I simply can’t but it down. This book was no different and just couldn’t stop Carter and Bailey’s story. These two have a story that needs to be read, they chemistry they share come of the pages in waves. Each of them with pasts that haunt them and finding their way to looking more towards the future than the past. These books can definitely be read as a standalone without any confusion but trust me you will want to read them all. The author writes a story filled with emotions you feel deeply. It’s well written and paced nicely. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to anyone.

My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Everyday Enchantments: Musings on Ordinary Magic & Daily Conjurings by Maria F DeBlassie was a different interesting read, that was very soothing, and at times almost had me asleep.. in a good way.

This isn’t your normal style book. It’s a collection of sorts, with no real direction. Just soothing emotions, calming situations and a insightful look into the world around us. It did take a bit to get use to the style of this journal like writing, but once I found my stride I was pulled into each new enchantment and let myself see the way the author does, and it was a bit of a wonder. A little weird, but a wonder.

Having the room quiet, and reading such words, I was in such a relaxed stated that my eyes felt heavy. I’m sure if I had any light music or a warm blanket I would have dozed off. I know, falling asleep while reading. But I have to tell you, this was a good thing, because this book puts you in that state of mind. In saying that, if you need a good bedtime read, this book will get you to a place where your mind is calm and relaxed.

I think this might be a re-read book, when my mind won’t shut down, and for that I thank the author for putting such words on paper.

With that said I give this book my high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Happy Reading

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I chose to read Everyday Enchantments because I was looking for a little magic in my life. Everyday Enchantments by Maria F. DeBlassie is a collection of stories like Chicken Soup for the Soul books. However, I enjoyed reading Everyday Enchantments over any Chicken Soul book. There is magic all around us, we just need to open our eyes to look for it. I did not rush through this book to find an action pack, fist thumping, or a cliffhanger book, but instead I found a story to lift your spirits through the little stories. It is a difficult world that we are in and the little things are often missed. This is a book to remind you to stop and notice the little things again.

Degrees of Control (Prestian Series, #3)Degrees of Control by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is Book 3 in the Prestian Series and I’m a little torn on this one. I truly thought this was the last book in the series but it turns out there is a 4th book. I’m ok with that. What I’m bummed about is that I am not as in love with the female protagonist as I was in the first 2. This book series moves at a really quick pace, so it’s natural that her feelings would change that fast also. HOWEVER, at times she is just down right mean. As I write this review, I realize that’s what makes a story good – having FEELINGS about a character instead of just being indifferent. For that reason, I will read the fourth to find out how it all wraps up.

This is a series that has intrigue and drama – It’s a roller coaster of drama and emotions. It has some cute and quirky moments and some dark and dangerous elements as well. At times it’s a perfect balance and at times it leans heavily to one side.

The story is developed and well plotted and this series MUST be read in order or it will make no sense. Please don’t do the author the disservice of reading out of order.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I absolutely adore Christmas stories they never fail to get me in the Christmas spirit and The First Backwards Christmas did just that! This is the third book that I have read by this author so I knew I would enjoy it and Ms Williams didn’t disappoint. It was a short and sweet read and in all honesty one that I didn’t really want to end. The authors descriptive language makes you feel like you are watching a festive film and not reading a story, I was able to imagine everything from the characters to the setting. It is definitely one of those stories for a cold winter’s night snuggled up in front of the fire! I loved Jack and Joyce and their connection. I felt like this was genuine and I was definitely rooting for them throughout the story!
If you are looking for a lovely Christmas story then I definitely recommend The First Backwards Christmas!

I absolutely LOVE this series!!!! The girls are back at it after having to testify after their Damascus operation. This time the terror hits closer to home and they go on a suicide mission. Even though this book is set in 2024, it could totally be in today’s time. I love these girls strength, their bravery, their unwavering commitment. This is just such a stand out series and worth the read. As the mom of an 18 year old daughter who was recently sworn into the National Guard, I have an even more appreciation for this story. I can’t wait for the next one!!

Courage written by Chelsi Arnold is the second book in The Sisterhood Series, it could be read as a standalone however book one, Brave, was also a great story and had a lot of background information to it, like what happened to everyone, especially Angelette. Courage is a book about having to do something and while u may hate it, or feel gratification you must be brave to get it done. The story is a good read and will pull you in right away.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Embattled Hearts (Lost and Found Series) by J.M Madden
4 Stars

This is a military romance novel. John Palmer was injured in Iraq where he lost the use of his legs. He hasn’t felt like a real man since it happened. John and a few other veterans opened a detective agency called Lost “N” Found Investigative Services. The cool thing about this agency is that it only hires veterans, giving them a purpose again and allowing them to fit into society. This is where he meets Shannon Murphy. She is hired as the office manager. Everyone adores her but none more so than John. For the first time in a long time, he is attracted to a woman. He’s less miserable when she’s around. He knows he’s falling for her but doesn’t believe he can be the man that she needs because he is stuck in a wheelchair.

Shannon wasn’t looking for love but finds herself instantly attracted to John. Even though he’s always grumpy, she notices that he is less so around her. She wants to make a move but is nervous that he won’t reciprocate. The action starts when someone from her past starts threatening her again. John and the rest of the veterans step in to protect her.

The good thing is that you never really know who is after her until the end. The author kept the mystery going which kept me intrigued. The suspense was really good. I loved the fact that the men weren’t “ perfect”. Whether they were crippled (like John) or amputees or had PTSD, each had their own issues. I think the author did an excellent job of showing the after effects and psychological issues that veterans go through after returning from the war. The author showed the slow healing process of trying to reintegrate themselves into a normal life. The novel was well written and thought out even the love scenes were realistic and touching. This truly is an amazing book and a must read!

A Must for Christmas: A Darling Cove NovellaA Must for Christmas: A Darling Cove Novella by Deborah Garland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A Must for Christmas by Deborah Garland is a holiday romance novella that really gets you into the Christmas spirit. From beginning to end this book really puts you into the Christmas spirit with warming your heart and curling your toes from passion. Following the story of Faith and Greg Mallory, who are stars of the Darling Cove series. Being a novella, we only get to see a small snippet of their story, which this portion of their story is a pretty special moment to witness. Becoming parents and having a family Christmas, make things almost too good to be true. Stress and worry can make for a difficult pregnancy, and the issues that almost pulled these two love birds apart. When early labor happens for Faith, Greg is right there with her through it all. Will these two get the perfect family moment on Christmas? Getting to see this side of the Mallory story really allowed me to connect with these characters one more time. Also getting to revisit the Darling Cove couples, as well as new secondary characters made this a great quickie read to get you in the holiday spirit. If you are looking for a great series, from a fantastic author, this is definitely one that you want to add to your reading list!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nathaniel (Dragon Hearts 1) by Carole Mortimer is a sexy paranormal fantasy story of dragons. I enjoyed the little twist to the Pendragon name and the mystery that is the Pendragon castle and the secrecy that surrounds it and found this well written story very entertaining. It is a quick read that is full of humour and I really enjoyed the banter of the feisty and witty Chloe, who takes no prisoners and her sexy alpha dragon and their sexual tension. Carole has set the scene of a previous time and has written a fun read, with some hot and steamy scenes with hot and sexy dragons. My only problem was it is not long enough. I want more! I do however look forward to reading more on the Pendragon brothers. Nathaniel is a good start to the series.

This was a really sweet romance read that I thoroughly enjoyed. I haven’t read anything by this author previously but I had a feeling I would enjoy the story as the blurb interested me and within a few pages I could tell it was my kind of read.
I really loved the characters, Shay and Matt. They were both down to earth people and had this great realistic feel about them. They are the kind of characters who you can’t help but like straight away and end up rooting for them the whole way through.
So I could see how the story could be a little predictable however I still loved it. I thought the authors’ writing was good – it was a perfect easy to read small town romance story. I am definitely looking forward to the next book in the series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Killmore by Martha Sweeney is the first book in her new series, Killmore. Categorized as a romantic suspense book I fell hard for this book and couldn’t bring myself to put it down until the very end. Getting to see a strong female lead character who also happens to be beautiful and complex really made this a great read. Antonio Herrera is sarcastic, snarky, realistic, ruthless, and best of all protected by the Feds. The Feds are more than willing to look the other way about her dealings with drugs and human trafficking as long as she is willing to play ball with them. But Antonio has always had a hard time trusting those around her when it comes to her business dealings. While the Feds offer sounds good, is it too good to be true? Will she be able to keep those around her safe? How much danger is Antonio in with the Feds? Sweeney is a new to me author, but I am so happy that I picked this story up. The banter between the characters, will leave you smiling and fall out laughing at their antics. The steam in this book will curl your toes and blush your cheeks as well. I highly recommend this book to everyone looking for a great story. I can’t wait to see where Sweeney takes her readers in the future with this series.

Born to Fight is the first book in the Can’t Resist You series by Brittany Anne. This is my first novel by this author.

Rain lives in an a bunker alone and quite content with her routine for the past two years until she helps a man who is bloody and in need of medical attention.

Hunter Kane, a Resistance soldier is hurt while trying to protect a women from being attacked. When unconscious for a few days, her voice pierced through his thoughts and makes him to want to wake up to see her.

After nursing him back to health, Rain, feels a bond with Hunter but both don’t want to get to close to each other for different reasons. Can Hunter, the soldier born to kill find something he wants more or will Rain’s secret tear them apart.

I didn’t think I was going to like the dystopian setting but I really enjoyed the dark and gritty world it was set in.

I loved the characters and how the story unfolds and the secrets the main characters were hiding.

I hope the next story is Kayla and Sawyer. Definitely felt some chemistry there.

One side wants to use her the other wants her dead. The story was intense and thrilling. I was sitting up straight waiting for what was to come. The suspense was killer. To live in fear but to also have e strength to say that you will fight for your life. There was so much sadness and heartbreak. But also courage and bravado. The author developed the characters well.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great conclusion to the build up of Aless’s life as a mafia princess! This is book 3 with characters from the first 2 books in the My Life Series. This series is also a prequel series to the Brothers of Camelot series.

This book was easy to read even while I was holding my breath as to what could happen next. I really expected more from Capo/Papa, the jerk face, however I am sure we haven’t heard the last from him. I love how Aless’ men follow her, protect her and really have her back when times got tough.

When Aless goes to make her big move I wasn’t really sure about how easily she made friends at the hotel, but as you can see with the 5 stars, it worked! That was just a lot of trust to put in people she really didn’t know.

I can not wait to see what else Navone has in store for these characters! I can recommend this book but only after you have read the first two, but then after you do, you’ll recommend it to yourself!

Necie Navone is going to be an author to follow as she did an AMAZING job with this series. She understood the way the Italian Family works. Her characters are real and believable. It is like Alssandra could be a best friend. This story is a fast, action packed, and mystery rolled into a three-book series.

In the last installment of My Life Series, we find that Alessandra has really blossomed into the young lady who is only 20 years old. Alessandra has had a lot of things happen to her in her short life. The fact that she is in Italy and is the Head of the Family requires a lot of knowledge about the working of the family and the “business”. Alessandra has proven that she can lead the family and now it is time for her to shine. Will it be enough for Alessandra or will she have to dig deeper down and bring more to the table?
