Eee-ahh and Shirl are back with a Rocketship Made of Stars. This book is fun, imaginative, educational and the illustrations were colorful and engaging. I really enjoyed this book and although this is for ages 4-8, I believe this story can be enjoyed by the young and the young at heart like me.
Eee-ahh is back on earth and is so happy that she goes to school with Shirl one day so she may hear stories. Eee-ahh meets new friends along the way and also learns all about stars and constellations. Shirl and her friends learn about where Eee-ahh and her stars.
This is a cute, fun story. Loving the learning aspect with all sorts of constellations and what each of them mean.

I could not wait to get my hands on this book and start reading. As soon as it hit my kindle I opened it immediately and did not put it down until I had finished. It just had to know how things would progress after the previous book. It took no effort to become engaged with this book. I love the characters. I would say they are some of my favourites but that would also apply to every single couple in this series so far. This author has such a enigmatic and captivating writing style. I love each and every book. They are all completely different yet have the same feel about them. Not only is this one of my favourite series this year, it is only of my favourites overall. I cannot wait until the next book to see how things turn out.

This book is technically part of a series, but the rest of the series isn’t necessary to follow this book. The author has written another fantastic story! I could not put it down as I waited for what would happen next. It follows Violet Cleveland as she launches her own security company. Unfortunately for her, as she signs her first major client, trouble comes into town. No matter what the personal cost, she will make sure to protect her client. Protestors and vandals try to derail everything she has worked for, and her own mother is a part of the problem. Her mother treats her unbelievably unfair and quite terribly. Violet struggles with loving her mom while still having boundaries and not being ok with her mom’s actions. There is so much angst about loving her mom and not liking her at all. I believe this is something we all struggle in our lives with someone in our families. It is so relatable. Great book!

This was a quick read for me. This book was ok for me. It moved a little slow for me and I was hoping for more action. I didn’t connect with the characters especially Mia who I found a little bothersome. Overall, the plot tied up nicely but the flow was a little stuck for me. I would read others by this author as I did enjoy the book overall.

The author Maria DeBlassie has an amazing perspective with her Tarot cards that lead to her connection with a magical energy that most are not aware of. Her words spoke to me but I could not connect to her emotions when she wrote about her passion and ways in her poems. For the fact that I am open-minded about a lot of things but for me, this is out of my reach due to I stay away from things that don’t belong to God. The author has a lot of emotions in her love to have a relationship with her Tarot cards with all respect. Those who like to have a connection with Tarot cards especially my daughter will love this book because she is learning and interested to speak to her cards.

Detective Scala is at it again . This time , a young woman had gone missing , her car has been found and there are blood splatters on the seat ….
Simona Riboldi was on her way to her lover when she stopped for cigarettes and then she messaged him that she’s had a change of heart and then disappears !? Naturally her husband is a suspect as is the lover but there’s something more sinister going on especially when it comes to light there was another lover! Not only that but there’s another murders and the 2 seem to be linked and just for added drama let’s add a little mafia as well ! I mean girl you have your hands full! Where she found the time , stamina and energy is mind boggling 🤭🤫
I like Detective Scala and his love affair with coffee , the man had taste 😉☕️❣️and he’s going to need that caffeine to find a killer , protect a witness and keep himself out of harms way …
An enjoyable read especially with a coffee on hand 😉

Mann – Review by Heidi Sturgess
This is the second book in The Hawke Family Second Generation. I loved the first book in this series. I was so excited for this book though because we get to learn more about the elusive Jude. This story had me hooked from the start. This is not just a romance, it is the story of family, friendship, and love. It is overcoming your past and the obstacles thrown in your way. The characters in this story seem to take on a life of their own.

The Mother’s Threat is a fast-paced, psychological thriller that will grip you from the first pages and keep you reading until the end. The story centers around the character of Violet who has just opened her own security business. She is an ex-covert-ops leader who is smart, strong, courageous, and tenacious. Violet is a woman who never backs down from a challenge and will instead tackle it head-on. Her first job with her security business, Outrigger Services, is to provide security for a company called Bettermed at an upcoming conference they are holding. When Violet discovers that her mother, Daisy, is planning to join a group of protestors at the conference she is shocked and horrified. She knows her hippie mom to be peace-loving, gentle, and kind so how could she be involved in a protest? Not only is Daisy involved in the protest, but she becomes the voice for the group. When the peaceful protest becomes heated looting, fires, and destruction occurs. Violet and Daisy’s mother-daughter relationship hangs precariously in the balance as they find themselves on opposing ends and Violet finds herself being forced to choose between her business and her mom.
This was yet another amazing book by this talented author. Her writing style is impeccable and draws the reader fully into the story. The relationship between Violet and Daisy became complex quickly when they found themselves on opposing sides of an issue involving big business and climate change. Both women are strong, smart, determined, and have strong beliefs and values. It was interesting to read and see how the conflict would play out between Violet and Daisy. This was a book full of action, drama, suspense, conflict, family dynamics, beliefs, morals, values, and the complex mother-daughter dynamic. The twists and turns will keep you on the edge of your seat and have you reading until the end. I highly recommend this book!

This was a good Thriller. It kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. It was a unique story for me and I loved how the author really did a thorough job on the relationship between Daisy and Violet. It really helped to bring the characters to life and I could really feel Violets turmoil as she struggled with protecting her client and her job over protecting her mother. Violet has set up her own security company and they are taken on by a big company for protection. In their small town nothing much happens so it should be an easy job. Rumours start of activists arriving to protest against her client has her in edge for trouble. But with the police and even the town mayor not taking her worries seriously is she blowing things out of proportion? As the activists arrive Violet is also deal another blow when she realises that one of the main activists is her own mother. Now she has to stand against her mother to do whats right by her clients and possible destroy the relationship she has with her mother in the process. What starts out as a peaceful protest soon gets out of hand and as things turn violent will Violet be able to keep control especially without support from the police or mayor?
I had mixed feelings about Violets and Daisy’s relationship. While i could understand Daisy standing up for her beliefs I couldn’t get over how she puts Violet in danger and makes her a target for the activist group. I also didn’t like the way Daisy broke into Violets house. Daisy comes across as a very self centred person, not caring who she hurts in her pursuit to make her views known. I felt for Violet being stuck between a rock and a hard place and I also felt her sense of betrayal and hurt but also admiration as she watches her mother stand up for what she believes in no matter the cost.
It was an enjoyable read that was fast paced and I couldn’t put down.
This was an incredible book, it was filled with action, excitement, suspenseful, thriller, fast paced. This book had me hooked from the beginning and I felt like I couldn’t read it fast enough. The twists and turns had me guessing and excited into what was going to happen next. The characters in this book were so well developed that they went very well with the story line. The details and story line were well written that it made me feel like I was right there with them. this book was very gripping, and I enjoyed every second of reading it.

This fast paced domestic thriller had me hooked from start to finish. Violet Cleveland is an ex-covert-ops leader who now runs her own security business and so is used to having her mind running on high alert. As well as a new business to worry about she also has to keep her unstable hippie mother in line, especially when there’s a conflict of interest between her ‘make or break’ protection detail and her mothers views. When she finds out that her job is involved with some emotionally charged protests Violet alerts the authorities only to be dismissed as a fear monger. Violet then goes undercover to try and track the source of the threats, only to discovers that her own mother has blown her cover to a potential lynch mob. This was a real page turner with an intriguing storyline and plot twists that kept me guessing as to the outcome of the story. The descriptive narrative brought both the characters and the setting vividly to life, making me feel immersed in the story. The complex mother/daughter relationship between Violet and Daisy really came across in the narrative, and I felt engaged with them. The suspense really built chapter by chapter and the psychological drama kept me gripped throughout.

When We Fell Again is an angsty, second chance, contemporary romance that centers around the characters of Jordan and Alexis. Jordan is lead singer with the band Idol Rev. His band is due to go on a comeback tour but after an alcohol induced moment of stupidity Jordan has dislocated his shoulder. He insists that he is still able to tour if he has super strength painkillers to take the edge off his pain. Alexis is a tour manager that usually manages smaller tours. When she is asked to fill in for Idol Rev’s regular tour manager, she is reluctant because it means that she will be on tour with her ex, Jordan.
Jordan and Alexis were together while in university and when he was an up-and-coming rock star. It was being his girlfriend that gave her the love of live music and led her into a career in tour management. Her new career was also what broke Jordan and Alexis up when she started to spend long periods of time away from home. Jordan became jealous, accused her of horrible things, and it inevitably caused the two to break up. Naturally, Alexis is not keen on seeing Jordan again but when she does old feelings begin to stir and she cannot deny her attraction to him. Jordan has managed to avoid Alexis for five years and is not keen on seeing her again but feels that he can maintain a professional attitude. That is, until he sees Alexis and old feelings come to the surface. His attraction to her is undeniable and he vows to change his ways and be a better man so he can win her back. Can old hurt and bitterness be put aside so that Jordan and Alexis can have a chance at a future together? Will Jordan settle back into his old ways of anger and jealousy?
This was a well written story with an intriguing storyline. It was interesting to read and see how Jordan and Alexis would handle being on tour together. Their attraction to one another was undeniable but would it be enough. I had to keep reading to see if Jordan really could change his ways and be the man that Alexis deserved. It was interesting to see how Alexis would handle the situation and if she could forgive Jordan and accept that he truly wanted to change. Would Jordan break her heart again? This book was an angsty, passion-filled, second chance romance that took me on a rollercoaster ride of emotions.

An emotional and engaging read which kept me captivated throughout. When Julie Mercer donated her eggs in order to help her brother and sister-in-law conceive via in-vitro fertilization, she never thought that just a few years later she would be taking full responsibility for those children, following the death of their parents in a car crash. Julie suddenly has to make room for her four year old twin niece and nephew, not only in her small apartment but in her life. Having decided that she never wanted children she doubts her ability to bring up Lucy and Mikey as her own. As well as her own grief and trauma she has to deal with the twins, which causes Lucy to throw intense tantrums and Mikey to stop talking. Then to complicate things further, the twins’ uncle, and also their biological father Grant turns up on her doorstep saying that he wants to help, but Julie worries that he may want to fight her for custody. Julie also has to deal with an inflexible and unsympathetic boss which puts her job on the line, and then on top of all these new life changes and challenges her family start questioning her role as guardian. Julie herself then needs to determine if the twins parents made the best decision making her their guardian. This is a heartwarming and at times heartbreaking story, which took me on an emotional rollercoaster whilst I was reading it. I really felt engaged with the likeable and relatable Julie and the extremely difficult position she found herself in. The descriptive narrative brought both the characters and setting to life making me feel immersed in the story. I recommend having a box of tissues handy when you pick up this must read page turner!

I enjoyed reading this second chance romance story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed their writing style as well as their attention to details that made the story pop. The characters not only pull you into their world but also keep my attention to the end. I had no problems picturing myself in their world. They are connectable and made the story easy to read. They have great growth as well as chemistry which just added to the story. This is a fast paced, hard to put down story that you don’t want to miss. A great rockstar romance story that I highly recommend.

The Secrets of Arkaim is the second book in The Reeds of West Hills series. It’s a good idea to start at the beginning of the series, although this sequel does a good job of reminding readers of relevant information from The Guardian of Whispers. It’s a fun magic school fantasy series appropriate for strong readers in KS2, as well as KS3.
Jon and Frank are getting used to their powers and the school and wider world they are now a part of. They’re excited to go back after the summer – to see their friends again and learn more about what they can do! And they have the Zodiac Games to look forward to, which it seems the whole school is excited about!
There are also plenty of situations for them to navigate, including Jon coping with the stigma associated with his unusual powers. And there are mysteries to solve, where the twins have to work to keep themselves and their friends safe.
This book gets five stars for me! I’d recommend it to young fans of magic school series such as Children of the Red King and The School for Good and Evil.

This is an author that I never hesitate to pick up. I have enjoyed this author’s writing style from the first book I read. This is a suspenseful thriller about betrayal and a determination like no other. This is a well written, engaging, fast paced story that has characters that bring the story to life on each page. The twist and turns had me sitting on the edge of my seat and made it easy to read. The characters are strong, determined and just as so much to the story. I really enjoyed this suspenseful story and I had to find out what happened at the end. Don’t miss out on this one. I highly recommend this book and this author.
This is the second book in this series which I enjoyed reading just as much as the first one. I highly suggest reading the first book to help your enhancement of the characters. This is a well written story that has twists and turns like no other. They are edge sitting and shadow lurking which add to the story’s entertainment value. This is a fast paced story that has characters that pull you into their world from the start. They are connectable, strong and supportive of each other which made the story easy to read. They have great growth and had me guessing on who did it. This is an engaging story that is hard to put down. A thriller you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book.

Whew, the sizzle between these two is off the charts! I have read several in this series and the world just keeps getting bigger and more complex. Master Campania went searching for the witches in his territory, and found Willow who he is drawn to. From two different worlds, the odds are stacked against them. So of course that means we are really rooting for them. Great world building, great characters, and a great satisfying plot! Keep them coming!

Violet has signed her first client to her brand new security business. Everything looks to be going in the right direction for her except one downfall there are protesters coming and she knows one. This story, like all Susan Specht Oram stories, is full of twists and turns that you don’t see coming. A great addition to the Millersville Series. Small towns, big problems.
This book combines romance and suspense. It follows the story of a young woman who gets caught up in a dangerous world of Russian mafia and royal intrigue. The book explores themes of love, loyalty, and the complexities of navigating dangerous relationships. Lev and Daphne are essentially enemies to lovers – and honestly, those are the best stories! These two are total opposites. You know what they say about opposites attract!

Holy mackerel! This story is an emotional rollercoaster that I will ride over and over. Jordan and Lex’s story is a rough one. They both have some baggage to deal with. This is a story with drama, definite angst, overcoming addiction and relationship issues. Those are hard issues to deal with but the author did a wonderful job of making a realistic story of how a pair battles these issues. This is a story that really touches the heart and home. The characters are easy to relate to. A definite must read.

I was so excited to start this book, Dead Keen is book 2 in the Things Unseen series, because I really enjoyed book 1. Neve and Con got into even more shenanigans in book 2. In the process of helping Ciara, cons younger brothers wife, with her mental illness and phantom pain that stems from her relationship with her ex-boyfriend Max. Neve ends up stowing away in Cons car when he tries to question Max, which makes him look incredibly guilty, they end up being left to die in a cave, and are arrested, and taken to jail. I also really enjoyed the sweet, wholesome relationship that is still developing between Neve and Con. They care about each other so much but have fun with each other and the snark level was adorable. I would definitely recommend anyone who enjoys a good thriller with some romance undercurrent to give this novel a try. They don’t have to be read in order to understand the plot but it would help with understanding the characters, their motivations, and relationships. I loved it.

While wondering Bridget finds herself on a small beach with no crowds accept a lone man surfing in the sea, when all of a sudden she is starring at the most handsome man she has seen in ages and when he approaches her demanding she leaves the private beach something happens between them that makes it impossible to move. Until advances are made and tequila regrets maybe on the cards.
Fyn has pressures most people could not conceive, the next in the line for King all he wants is to live his life the way he wants to live it, but when the King and Queen are pressuring him to marry Princess Abigail who he does not even like it all becomes too much. Fyn does what he loves to unwind and goes surfing at the private beach until he is rudely interrupted by a trespasser. As Fyn gets to know her better the chemistry between the two of them is off the charts but just as he has found her she vanishes and he is lost.
Over the year of searching for her she shows up back in his life and he is not letting her escape again, but with the unrest in his country can he keep hold of the woman he loves and help save the country he loves from the rebels out to destroy the monarchy?
I have read a lot of Gwyn’s books and they all offer strong female leads and this one does not disappoint, although at the beginning Bridget is lost and seems grown down by the end of the story she is determined to fight for her man even if it upsets the Queen/Fyn’s mother. Fyn’s character has different dimensions and with his strong relationship to his best friend Lev shows another layer to this complicated character.
The story flows and is well written, with twists and turns throughout the story will have you engaged until the end. As this is the first book in the series it sets up the world of Lovolia brilliantly and has you wanting to visit to see the various sites that is described within the pages.
I can’t wait to read the next book in this series regarding Lev and Daphne as this seems a fiery relationship in this book.

A great read!! This is a sequel, but can be read as a standalone. The author has an engaging writing style that draws the reader in and the storyline is captivating. We join Neve and her boyfriend, Con, on a trip to help Cons brother and his fiancé with a medical mystery, but it soon unravels into much more!
The author develops plot and characters well and keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. The author gives us everything in this story and keeps you guessing throughout. This is a well written, engrossing psychological thriller!

I enjoyed this book. This a fast-paced thriller. Nothing like having to choose between your business or your mom. I was enthralled with how well the author put together the story. The details, the characters, they are so well written that I found myself not wanting to put it down. This a suspense novel that will definitely have you on the edge of your seat. This author did a terrific job with writing a mother/daughter suspense.
What a read! This book is a romantic comedy but it’s got its fair share of twists.
What to say about this book. I don’t even want to say too much because this is just a book you have to experience. It’s got relatable characters, humor, and twists you don’t expect. I couldn’t put it down. I HAD to find out how everything was going to play out. I highly recommend giving this book a read!
