Susan has done it again! A fun read about two sets of thieves trying to do good things with stolen money. This book kept me engrossed until the very end, from Jas and Phil to Bets and Zerk. The story is told from both Jasmine’s and Bet’s side and the side characters add so much entertainment. If you like suspenseful thrillers, then this is the book for you.

This book is the whole package. There was nothing missing. I absolutely loved it from the very first page. When these two characters come face to face they’re no denying anything. The Hawkes are being put in charge of keeping Mina and her daughter safe from a credible threat. Everyone falls for Mina and Viv right away. Especially Isaac. Cannot wait to see where else the author goes with this series. Looking forward to more

I don’t even know what to write here about the book. I loved the book from the beginning to the end and was hoping it wasn’t over as soon as it. This has jumped To one of my Favorite books in 2023 so far. It was that good. Cash and Hollis are just perfect For eachother. This book had it all. The joking, the tricks, the hidden feelings that are dying to bubble over. Hollis knows when Cash stalks towards her,‘there’s no getting away. I love how Hollis helps Cash but one question I still Have is WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? cannot wait for the next book. 5+ stars for sure

This was a very interesting fantasy novel that brought a unique twist to the wizarding world! I really enjoyed reading this book and learning about each of the characters background story throughout this book, which brought the story together. The twists and turns of the first book of this series made for a very gripping story line and kept you wanting more! I could not put this book down and wanted to read it as fast as I could just to know what would happen next! I really enjoyed how in this wizarding world magic is a little different and witches and wizards are fighting for their rights, it really empowers women today to keep fighting for their rights and what they deserve. I really enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading the next book of this series!

Lyall Review by Noor Jivraj
This is an urban fantasy novel with a bit of an apocalyptic vibe. A black mist descended on earth which brought to life monsters. Most of the human race was eradicated. The few that remained formed clans in an effort to protect themselves. Females possessed magic and the men became warriors. Zoe always had a different view on life. She was able to see the bigger picture. She always wanted to be a warrior. What good was magic if you didn’t know how to fight and protect yourself? Biding by society’s rules, she is placed at the academy to weird her magic. But what happens when she falls in love with a creature of the night?
This author has a very creative imagination. I have read many of her books. Although this was not one of my favourites, the story is interesting and enjoyable.

After an insane whirlwind adventure, our young wizard Wilf Gilvary is ready to go back home and live life as a normal soccer-loving teenager. It seems, though, that Wilf’s adventures have quite a ways to go! Evil is again threatening the world, and poor Wilf is now being accused of things he never did, corrupting the Veil. His magic seems to be the culprit, even though it is now Wilf’s will for it to do so. And to top it all off, his step-sister Myra must be caught, or his life will never go back to what it was.
This is the 2nd installment of a wonderful YA novel full of magic, fantasy, adventure, and so much more! I highly suggest grabbing this and the first book, you won’t regret it!!

Lyall – Review by Michaela Massie
This is a historical western, something I don’t normally read. But this story caught my interest. I am happy I took the time to read this one. Christopher and Greta are both in love. Yet they don’t want anybody to know. They fight their feelings for as long as they can. Being in a interracial romance was looked poorly upon. Then add the age gap and the times well it’s a struggle for all. This author has written a story of two unlikely people coming together and fighting all odds. Both the main characters are protective as well as heroes in my book. The story is quick yet complete as well as a great addition to this series. I look forward to starting this series from the beginning to see where the author takes us. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This was a really cute book! I enjoyed the illustrations a lot, they were very colorful, detailed and beautiful! This is kind of like a retelling of Hansel and Gretel, without the bad-ish ending and violence towards children. I think this children’s book had a good theme in not judging books by its cover? Something along those lines anyway. Either this was a cute book for children and I highly recommend it!

Sam graduates high school and moved to L.A. to pursue her dreams of being an actress. L.A. nfs up being much harder than she imagined and she has to get a job at a coffee shop. Sam meets Corey goes out a few times with him and ends up moving in. She becomes pregnant not remembering being intimate and Corey makes a deal that she has the baby and he will get her acting career going. Circumstances come about and she decides to run and keep the baby. Four years later, her son disappears and she tells the police she is sure Corey is involved and makes her have to tell all surrounding the relationship and circumstances that she’s kept private the last four years. I really enjoyed this book. It was a good mystery, suspense but yet an easy read of that makes sense.
I loved that this book was and is a wild ride that I just had to read twice. It read like a movie. That I did love plus the characters were so well developed. I loved rooting for the sheriff to catch these bad guys and she was a woman! This book was fun, thrilling and suspenseful. For it to take all those turns and twists, it sent me! Trust me when I say this is a great read!

This was a slower-paced book, but it was wonderful for these two. Two people with career ambition and with apprehension towards love. They each try to fight romantic feelings and build a friendship that turns into love. With some bumps along the way and learning to work through their problems, they get their HEA. I look forward to reading more by this author.

What a cute enemies-to-lovers book. These two business owners both have goals and hard-headed personalities. And knew how to push each other’s buttons immediately. Yet when Cash’s business is at risk of being shut down the two pull together to save his bar and a friendship and love happens from there. Can not wait for the next book in the series.

Wilf Gilvary is back and still trying to figure out how to control his magic, but he is still reluctant to accept his life as a wizard, he would much rather be playing football with his friends, or spending time with Katryna. Things don’t go to plan however, when the Veil he helped to strengthen starts to go rogue and the witches and wizards around him believe that he is the problem, they think that when he used his wizard magic to strengthen the witches spell, that he corrupted it and now it is out of control.
This isn’t Wilf’s only worry, his stepsister Myra is also on the loose, three days ago, she ran away from her crimes and Wilf is determined to find her, but the witches have other ideas and they are keeping him busy working on the antidote for the Virus of Beauty and studying magic, however, Wilf is getting more frustrated by the day and this isn’t helping anyone, least of all him, but he is struggling to control his emotions, as usual.
Meanwhile, in the magical realm, the Veil is expanding and it has taken on a life of its own, it is attacking witches and wizards alike and wreaking havoc wherever it touches and Wilf is expected to fix it, but when Katryna is kidnapped, he realises that he will do anything to get her back and save the magical realm, even if he doesn’t want magic himself. With tensions rising between the witches and wizards, can he keep everything in check while they fight over him, Katryna and the magical realm, or will it all end in disaster? This is another fantasy adventure with secrets, lies, mistrust and of course, magic throughout as you try to untangle the webs surrounding Wilf, Katryna and the others around them to work out who wants what and why, it is a story which will hook you in and keep you invested throughout.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It is not my first book by this author nor will it be my last. C.A. King is definitely becoming a favorite.
Things I loved most: -Strong female lead -supernatural -relatable elements ( dating the wrong guy, being different, betrayal) -easy to read and follow along -Simone -the tree -how much Zoe is coming into her powers
Things I disliked: -the book ending
Things I would change: -at times it felt like the story jumped a bit kind of read like how a tv show would take place. It didn’t take away from the story but it had me question if I skipped a page
Anyways I need a sequel. I have to know what happens next. Will they fight the humans or vampires first? Can they reproduce and will the offspring be even more powerful? Will we get a glimpse into what really happened with the black mist?

Thrilling and twisted This was so unexpected and very unpredictable. The story builds over the time with many twists, suspense, mystery and drama. This leads to a very emotional and intense read. There were times where I felt the story didn’t flow as cleanly as it could but overall there was enough to keep me engaged right through to the unforeseen ending.

Cash is one of the owners of blue Bigfoot brewery, they have had peaceful existence until neighbour from hell moves next door.
Hollis has opened her dream, a dog grooming parlour and is just trying to build up her business, so when she enter the pub next door to give away some flyers she did not expect full out war with the owner.
As the practical jokes get more and more elaborate Cash and Hollis start feeling chemistry between them until a misunderstanding causes an explosion in more ways than one.
I love this author’s writing style, she writes warm and rich characters which instantly make there way to your heart and Hollis and Cash are no different. The start of the book just lets you peak in just enough to have you hooked and can put the book down until you find out what happens.
I loved the character of Hollis so sassy and independent wanting to make a life for herself without the trappings of her parents money which was refreshing to read. I loved also Cash and how at the beginning you see him as this gruff man but slowly within the story he becomes a great man and I think I have yet another book boyfriend lol.
I can’t wait to see who is next in this series as all the secondary characters enhance the story even mango.

Historical Romance This is an interracial western romance based in a time where it was against the social norm. This was a good story but a bit thin on the ground. Dusty and Jo make a great couple but have to overcome some obstacles to get there. There’s the age gap, some drama, a crime, debt and of course romance. A novella sized story but worth a read.

Mina’s mother, Valentina, has made enemies with the Santriano mob, and her father, Cutter, has decided that Mina should stay in New Orleans with the Hawke family. Mina is frustrated and packs bags for Vivianna, her four-year-old daughter, and herself. Vivianna arrives at the Hawke law firm and is placed in Isaac Hawke’s office. Mina notices that Stone Hawke looks similar to someone from her past, but Isaac’s entrance eliminates any doubts. Isaac and Mina used the false names Nolan and Jack to spend a weekend together in Chicago, but Mina left a message and snuck away as her father picked her up. Isaac tried to find her but ended up going home to New Orleans. When he sees Jack, he is shocked to learn that he is the father of Vivianna, a fact that Mina has not revealed to anyone. Isaac volunteers his condo for Mina and Vivianna to stay in but is upset that Mina has not told him he is a father. Mina tries to reason with him, but he feels like he has missed important parts of his daughter’s life. How are they going to tell Vivianna that he is her father? The Hawke family is having difficulty building a hotel due to their competitor, Falco, using their brand. Isaac decides to hire a private investigator to obtain incriminating photographs of Broussard, one of the zoning board members, accepting a bribe from Falco’s attorney. Isaac wants to protect Mina and be involved in Vivianna’s upbringing, but Mina believes he doesn’t want to be a father. Isaac is aware that Mina doesn’t really want to stay in New Orleans, but he still wants to find out if she felt like he did when they were in Chicago. I found it amazing that Issac and Mina were reunited for the exact reason that Mina abandoned him. I loved the family dynamics between the Hawkes, especially with how quickly they accepted Mina and Vivianna. Vivianna was quite mature and yet her resilience is exactly how a 4-year-old should be.

3.5 Stars The Forlorn Cowboy is another book in The Studs of Clear Creek County Series which is a BWWM interracial romance as well as an historical western. The books in this series are set in the small town of Clear Creek County where sexy cowboys reside and fall in love. All the books are short easy reads but as I have said before I wished that they were longer with more growth they could be great reads. This is Christopher and Greta Fay’s story. He’s down on his luck and broke. His life was heading in one direction that could solve all his problems but that all changes when a sassy, yet troubled beauty comes into the picture and shakes things up. Greta Fay, is a sassy little thing and fights for what she believes in. But can she keep herself safe from the one person who could destroy all she wants and the law? As the blurb says this story has many tropes with an interracial romance, age-gap, western, cowboy, unforbidden love, tortured hero, protective hero, damaged heroine, love triangle, soul mates. It is full of tension, angst and drama, some suspense and romance not to mention cowboys.

This was a great 5-star read. I really enjoyed this read, I had several LOL moments. These two were great. You could feel the connection coming off the pages. The pranks and banter were great. All of the characters were great. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. I look forward to reading more from this series and author. 1-click and get started today.

This book starts off by hooking you immediately with a tale of kidnapping and a missing child. Remembering that will help you get through some of the slower middle parts. I get where the story needed to go and why it went there, I just needed it to go faster.
Samantha “Sam” Crawford grew up in a small nothing and nowhere town with an addict mom and thinking she killed her father as a small child. Since she was 6 years old, Sam knew she wanted out of there and made the plans to do it, moving to LA to be an actress. When Sam gets there, it is not all sparkles and bright lights. It is crappy apartments, gang violence in the streets, low paying jobs, and a whole lot of no’s. When she meets Corey, a beautiful pilot that treats her well and has connections in the industry, she knows things are going to get better.
Soon, Sam finds out that Corey lied. He has no connections. He is not who he says he is and he wants a strange deal. Sam agrees to the deal and the exchange. She changes her mind and manages to escape Corey. When Sam’s past catches up to her, she has to make some tough decisions to be free from her long ago choices forever.
There are enough twists and turns to keep one engaged. Although I found the pace a little slow, overall a great read.
I was so excited to read the third book in the Ghost Mysteries series and it is just making me want to be able to read the rest of the series so I can see how it ends! The description of the slow burn romance is a completely accurate description of the relationship between Elinor and Tristan Fontaine, Duke of Archambeau. Tristan is an amazing brooding hero who is clearly attracted to Elinor, but appears to be doing his best to fight his attraction. The story line in this book was riveting; getting to see her new apprentice Twyla in action was fantastic. Getting to see Elinor as a mentor and helping to shape Twyla into a better ghost talker, was so interesting to see. As always it was great getting to see Dr. Charlotte LaRue, I love how she is always just so calm and helpful. It was great getting to see how Elinor’s side mystery of the murder of her father continues to progress. I can’t wait for the rest of the series to come out!
Before this book I had never heard of Nadija Mujagic, but now that I have, I am hooked and must read more of her amazing work. As a mother the first chapter definitely set the mood of the book, Sam’s four-year-old son Jake goes missing from the local public pool. Heart racing, I couldn’t put the book down and before I realized I was nearly halfway through the book needing to learn more. Chapter two is the first-time jump, going back four years to before she had her son. Living in small towns I understand her hunger for something bigger and better.
Her dream is to be an actress, so she starts by looking for an agent to represent her, to help her get into the industry. When Stacy Goldberg responds saying she will only discuss things with her in person 5 days later Sam has no choice but to quickly find an apartment and get a bus ticket to L.A. Our dreams never seem to play out the way they do in our heads, no matter how many different paths you think of, and Sam’s were no different. Her first meeting ends with her feeling confused and like her career is already over. Stacy tells Sam she has “the look” and then tells her you either parish or persist. While trying to figure out how to go about auditioning she begins working as a barista at a local café. Michael her new coworker who freelances as a writer asks her to dinner, declining she says she’s not currently in a good place. Only other than not being attracted to him her biggest fear in any new situation is anyone getting closer to her and wanting to dig into her dirty past. By the age of six Sam had lost her paternal grandparents, the only ones she ever knew, and her father. After her father’s death her mother seemed to care more about her next high than her daughter, so she learned to be independent at a young age. Only Sam has a deep dark secret, a secret so terrible that she not only has to keep it from her mother, best friend, and small town but from herself.
Will Sam parish or persist in the world of acting? How does the handsome stranger she meets at work play into her dream? Is it possible for her to continue to keep her secret after all these years? The world the author creates is realistic, no sugar coating on the ways of the world while always keeping her character relatable. The twists and turns this book had kept me entranced from page one and I couldn’t stop until I was done.
This book took me for a rollercoaster ride! I hadn’t read anything by Nadija Mujagic before, but they are definitely on my watch list now. I love psychological thrillers so this was right up my alley. When you think of moving to LA to chase your dreams of becoming an actress, you get the feeling it will be difficult but worth it, right? Once Sam graduated high school, she decided to do just that and leave quite the secret behind her. Only she didn’t realize just what was in store for her. She was receiving rejections left and right until she met Corey. He swears he can help her achieve her dreams if she does him the small favor of giving him a child. I won’t give anything away but WOW! This book kept me glued to the pages and had twists that I never saw coming. I highly recommend picking this up and giving it a go if you enjoy psychological thrillers!
I had never read a book by this author before, so this was a nice start. Dusty is a grumpy cowboy who is also a widower, and he’s not looking for much else in his life anymore. Lovely Jo comes barreling into his life with a suspicious story, but he feels like he can trust her. They have instant chemistry but neither one is prepared for it to go anywhere at all. Will they find something more than just living in their day-to-day monotony, or will it all be a disappointing bust? I feel like this was a rather good short story especially if you enjoy romantic westerns!

I loved the first book in this series, and I’m happy to say that this one was outstanding as well! I love the detailed magical world that the author has built as well as the in-depth characters we get to follow. Witches and wizards haven’t gotten along in what seems like forever, but now their conflict is destabilizing their entire realm. Wilf really just wants to be a normal teenager, but it isn’t that easy. His stepsister is causing trouble and he must see to it that justice is served. Can Wilf help his world return to a level of normalcy, or will the decisions made be catastrophic for everyone involved? I highly recommend picking up the first book in the series to get the full experience because you may be a bit lost if you don’t. It’s worth every bit of reading, I couldn’t put either one down until I raced to the finish!
