Leaving No Traces (Commissario Scala #5)Leaving No Traces by P. J. Mann
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 stars
Leaving No Traces is the fifth book in the A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome crime series. Even though this book is part of a series, you can read it just as easily as a standalone novel.
The story is well paced with lots of tension, suspense, and mystery. There are realistic interactions between the characters some likeable and some not. The plot and world building are intriguing as we journey along with Detective Scala and others in solving this latest murder mystery.
It is easy to become invested in the outcome of the story with its drama that is entertaining and interesting.
Detective Scala must tread carefully when trying to wade through another web of deceit and corruption. What he finds just leads him to the underbelly of a world that criminals reside. A place where lives mean nothing.
His goal is to catch the killer, protect a key witness and keep himself alive doing so.
If you like whodunnits with ruthless villains, then you will enjoy this tale by P. J. Mann.

This book is a fun and entertaining story. It is an enemies to lovers Romance but had a much more relaxed and most than most books of this type do. The main characters had such a great connection. I loved watching their relationship build as the book went on.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Liz Evans is grieving the loss of her grandmother when she finds out the woman who she was incredibly close to, had a whole separate life that Liz knew nothing about. Discovering she has a mansion in Florida and close friends with a man named Mark Watts is just another dagger to her heart on trying to understand why the secrets. Driving cross country with her grandmother’s cat she hopes to fill in the gaps. Little did Liz know that her grandmother was an actress and she had several affairs of the heart and Mark is the writer who she was collaborating with on her biography. Throw in an undeniable attraction to Mark and you have the making of a wonderful story.

I liked that this book was unpredictable. I wanted to know more about Liz’s grandmother Betsy from the beginning. I thought Liz was great, I appreciated that she was having a tough time especially when there was so many secrets. Mark was intriguing, I really enjoyed how the build up with the Mark and Liz story unfolded.

Heavy Shot (Nashville Assassins: Next Generation) by Toni Aleo – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

Heavy Shot (Nashville Assassins: Next Generation #7)Heavy Shot by Toni Aleo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Heavy Shot is Book Seven of the Nashville Assassins: Next Generation series. This is a sports romance book that centers around the characters of Austen and Dimitri. Austen has had a rough life full of abuse and neglect. She has learned to be strong and wants to make her grandfather proud, so she takes a job with the Assassins. Dimitri is back from playing hockey in Russia and comes to try out for the Assassins team. When a mix-up with housing occurs Dimitri and Austen end up in the same apartment. Although at first the two do not necessarily hit it off they eventually reach a truce. The witty banter, teasing, and chemistry between them builds as they get to know one another better.

This was a well written book with an engaging storyline and lovable characters. Austen has had a horrific past full of abuse and trauma but has not let that deter her from having a bright future. She learned to be strong, assertive, feisty and stand on her own two feet. Dimitri comes across as being cocky and arrogant initially but as the story unfolds, we see another side of him. He is sweet, kind, and gentle with Austen which was wonderful to read. The author did a beautiful job of writing about sensitive subject matter and the after effects a survivor of abuse experiences. The love story between Austen and Dimitri was inspiring. A wonderful story full of angst, witty banter, humor, hope, love, passion, and romance. I highly recommend this book!

Mr Lucky (Trentbridge Tales Book 1) by Lee Wood – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

Mr Lucky (Trentbridge Tales #1)Mr Lucky by Lee Wood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mr. Lucky is Book One in the Trentbridge Tales Series. It is a fast-paced, British Crime Thriller that centers around the character of former Detective James Sheldon. James is no longer a Detective and luck really has not been on his side at all. James has not only lost his career, but he has also lost his family, is homeless, and has sunken into self-despair. When he suddenly wins a substantial amount of money in the lottery things should look up for him. Instead, James’ life takes a turn for the worse as he is in a battle to survive against numerous people who suddenly seem to have it out for him. Will he be able to outrun, outwit, outfox, and out maneuver the savory characters intent on destroying him?

This was a well written book with a compelling storyline and interesting characters. James was down-on-his-luck with no hope for a bright future. He had sunken into self-loathing and despair until winning the lottery. Coming into millions of dollars should have instantly improved his life but as luck would have it, life got infinitely worse. James had to pull himself together and dig down deep for the strength to save his life from those after him. This was a fast paced, edge of your seat, intense psychological thrill ride that will rivet you and have you reading until the end. I highly recommend this book!

Tequila MidnightTequila Midnight by Kathryn Dodson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this novel with a gritty, determined, realistic heroine. Jessica Watts was abandoned by her parents and had to grow up fast in order to survive. She doesn’t let anyone get close and is the tough-as-nails heroine you’d think she’d be. However, when a Mexican tycoon approaches her to help him find his missing daughter, Jessica can’t walk away from the pay-out he’s offering. This mission takes Jessica on every twist and turn imaginable and leaves her for dead more than once. Definitely check out this book if you love mysteries and tough on the outside, but soft on the inside heroines.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 2nd book in the series; however, you can read it as a stand alone…the only thing you are missing out on is really getting to know Detective Scala (but you get that in this book…you just don’t have it from the beginning). I love a good mystery thriller and P.J. Mann did not disappoint with this one. The dual perspectives between Detective Scala and the killer was *chef’s kiss* and probably my favorite part about the entire book (I love a good dual perspective). I really like Mann’s writing style and look forward to reading more.

This is a cute retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk with a twist. Wickstrom’s take on classic fairytales are unique and this one is no different. In this version, we get the giant’s perspective and what he plans to do with Jack; however, Jack outsmarts him with some quick problem-solving. I always enjoys the way she weaves lessons into her stories and the illustrations are always interesting and special.

Reticent Hawke: A Billionaire Reverse Age Gap Best Friend's Older Sister Forbidden Romance (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 2)Reticent Hawke: A Billionaire Reverse Age Gap Best Friend’s Older Sister Forbidden Romance by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Reticent Hawke is the Second Book in The Hawke Family Second Generation Series. This is a forbidden romance, older woman, friends to lover’s story told from multiple POV’s. The story centers around the characters of Jude and Angelina. Jude was not born into the Hawke family but was adopted by them, so he is considered family. He had a rough childhood which has left him traumatized and weary of human touch. Angelina/Angie is a member of the Hawke family and is 12 years older than Jude. She is the only person who has been able to reach Jude and the only person that he feels comfortable with. Angie and Jude feel a very strong connection and bond between them that goes beyond being family. They are intensely attracted to one another and find it hard to work through the feelings they have towards one another.

This book was beautifully written and took me on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. The characters of Jude and Angie were instantly lovable and relatable, and the storyline hit close to home for me. As an older woman who met, fell in love, and married a younger man I can fully understand society’s view of this type of a relationship. It is socially acceptable for older men to date younger women but not necessarily the other way around. My husband is fifteen years my junior and even I struggled with the age gap and how society would view our relationship. The author did a wonderful job of writing about this reverse age gap romance. I found myself rooting for Jude and Angie to be together. This book has angst, drama, passion, family, hope, romance, tension, and love. I loved this book and cannot wait for the next one in the series! I highly recommend this book!

Love Bites More (The Darkness & Light Duology, and the Love Bites World) by TL Clark – Review by Lisa Helmick

Love Bites MoreLove Bites More by T.L. Clark
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It has been a bit since I have read previous books in this world. This is a nice story that incorporates characters from the previous stories but could also be read as a stand alone. I had met the main characters of this story previously but knew little about them. I kind of wish there was more to their individual stories other than watching, eating and time spent in the Den of Sin. There really wasn’t too much else until the third came Into play. I was slightly disappointed as I was expecting another great story in this world filled different characters. I did not feel much of a connection between the two Watchers but I did with their respective partner.

Overall This did not hold up to what I was expecting. It is an okay story without a lot of angst or action and not my favorite of the series. It was nice seeing the old characters and their familiars again.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What an awesome story! I loved this one! It is action packed with suspense, drama and MC goodness. This one covers a problem I have not read about before so that intrigued me. The author does a good job at weaving a story from beginning to the end then tying it all up in a web. The story flowed really well as it is told from different characters perspectives. The author does a good job of putting me in the moment. I was really worried and freaked out just lije the characters..I even felt their panic and was many times just “ go, Go, GO!”

Overall this is a great story incorporating multiple clubs with its large cast of characters. I felt Taz’s story was told on point and she did not get pushed to the back for the overall storyline. This easily could be a stand alone but I would suggest reading the series to get how connected all these characters are. Plus it was wonderful seeing the boys from Grimm Wolves MC as a cameo. This one I highly recommend if you are a person who enjoys MC reads with a spin on them and crazy good characters with depth. Well done!

I was surprised by this read to say the least. At times I was laughing, I never would have expected that from a book with Murder in the title. The author brings life to this gated retirement community of seniors. Each senior has their own back story with love, secrets, and heartache. I love how well rounded the character development is throughout the book. I do wish the author would have brought everything to a solid end but maybe she has more in-store for us in the future.

This feels like a typical romance made slightly edgier by the fact the main character is a tattoo artist. With that being said, it’s a good read and the characters are pretty well developed; although for someone who’s not afraid to do what she thinks is right for her, Kia seems to be a bit more insecure than I’d expect. The supporting characters perfectly mesh into the story and being more depth to it. This is a nice, quick summer read.

It’s an uplifting story that will have you feeling all the feels. This author is one of my favorites because she writes and makes you feel like you are sitting and hanging out with friends.

Being a Gen-X and living through the 80’s, I loved the story and reminiscing about the items and references throughout. The story is quite funny. The two primary characters have spark and need a little bit to realize it. My family thought I was losing it from my giggling through the story, from Eric’s sister being called names by the karate instructor to Eric splashing Blaine outside the restaurant and then acting innocent. This story is very entertaining and full of humor. Watching these two work through things is quite satisfying. It’s a wonderful story and well worth reading.

Katelynn is asked to help Hugh and his owner, Grant with some equine therapy. Little did she know that she would be helping them both. Hugh, a horse, suffered an accident and she was the only one who could reach and help him. Grant, better known as “The Beast”, is an overbearing grump. He also suffered from the same accident. This story kind of made me think of Beauty and the Beast. There were a few extra villians in the story that sure made you not like them. I found myself rooting for Kate and Grant. These two had a lot of issues to get through. Kate taught that hardships can be overcome. Life can be hard but you can get through. I love this series. Elle’s story was good. Kate’s story has been lovely and heartwarming. The writing is beautiful. The characters are fantastic. The storyline is smooth with no glitches. I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait to read the older sister’s story next.

Detective Scala has received a mysterious note within his car, as he reads he discovers that not all maybe well and that he maybe caught up in something big. As the weeks go on nothing major happens until one night he is called to the cemetery as a body of a young man is discovered.

As he investigates the young man’s death he then unravels connections with seemingly unrelated murders pushing it further into lines of deceit and corruption. As him and his team investigate further dark secrets are discovered and will he be able to stop this killer before another body is found.

This the first book I have read by this author and what a start to my journey. The character of Maurizio Scala was sharp and non nonsense which was refreshing to read and brilliant to follow, with the introduction of the team and the secondary characters it had you engrossed all the way through.

Although this is the second book in the series I felt comfortable reading this as a stand alone story and did not loss anything in the back story or history. I loved the dual prospective of the story where you got to see inside the killers mind as well as the police which made the thrilling twists and turns even more exciting.

I would really like to go back and read the first book and hopefully more moving forward.

The chemistry between Angus and Veronica is intriguing because neither has time for a relationship but here it comes. An exciting read that fit in perfect for a weekend read.

I am interested to see what the next book entails. Recommend.
