The Veil of Corruption (The Virus of Beauty Book 2) by C.B. Lyall. I have really enjoyed this series even though its not my favorite genre. Its the story of Wilf Gilvary who is teen wizard but wizardry is not his favorite thing. He loves soccer and just being a teen in Hong Kong. He is trying hard to hide his magic from his teammates and trying to keep it in control at other times. He shares a bond of attraction to Katryna who is a young witch but he’s only attracted to her due to their bond. Wilf is also trying to fix The Veil which is going all wonky because of him. On top of all that he’s trying to find Myra his sister who murdered their father. This read is so full of all the things, magic, emotions, murder and fantasy. This is such a fun series so buckle up and start this fun fantasy series!

Lyall Review by Tausha Treadway
The storyline is extremely interesting and has a lot of surprising twists, especially the end.
The main character’s inner dialog is all over the place but in a good way, it kept me guessing what was real and what wasn’t. I was truly expecting it all to have been a psychotic breakdown or something.
My only reason for not giving this book 5 stars is because there are some time-line and time jumps that were really confusing and that took away from the story.
If the author sorts out those minor issues this book can definitely be a best seller

An enjoyable and engaging romantic comedy which kept me happily turning the pages. I love the main characters, Cash and Hollis who are both likeable and relatable characters with plenty of chemistry. Cash runs his family’s brewery and Hollis is a dog groomer and they are neighbours, the worst neighbours, this is an enemies to lovers romance. The pair have plenty of banter between them and they like to play pranks on one another, but when Cash thinks Hollis has gone too far, he’s willing to play dirty to save his business. This is a fun, lighthearted story with plenty of laugh out loud moments, but also full of emotion and of course romance. The couples sizzling chemistry leads to some rather steamy scenes, and I was cheering them on to a HEA.

Book two in the Virus of Beauty series continues the story from the first book and centers on teen wizard Wilf. In Book One we learned about Wilf who has no interest in magic and all he truly wants to do is play soccer. However, life has other plans for him, and he now finds himself caught in the middle of a long-held dispute between the witches and the wizards. The ongoing dispute has somehow destabilized the Magical Realm and it is up to Wilf to find the antidote for the Virus of Beauty that many of the witches have been plagued with before it is too late.
When Wilf’s stepsister, Myra, disappears it is left up to Wilf to find her and bring her to justice. In his quest to find her the defensive barrier known as the Veil between the witch and wizard cities becomes corrupted and Wilf is blamed. The corruption of the Veil allows the virus to spread and affects both wizards and witches throughout the magical realm. When evil strikes and his witch friend, Katryna, is kidnapped Wilf will do anything to save her even if it means that he risks his own life in doing so. He is the only one that holds the key to saving both his friend and the Magical Realm from certain disaster.
Book Two in the Virus of Beauty Series did not disappoint. The reader is transported to places all over the world as the wizards and witches fight to stabilize the magical realm before it destroys them all. Our teen wizard Wilf has to really step into his role as wizard because this unlikely hero is the only one who can save them. Wilf must put aside his thoughts and feelings on what his perception of a normal life may be and embrace his wizard side while fighting evil head on. Wilf really discovers who he is and what he is capable of as he becomes stronger as both a person and a wizard. It was interesting to read how his relationship with Katryna unfolded and how her family slowly came to terms with it.
This book has everything a YA reader can hope for in one place. Magic, self-discovery, adventure, suspense, unlikely heroes, family drama, young romance, and even some witty banter. It held my attention and kept me reading until the end. The overall most intriguing part of the story for me, since Book One, has been what the witches perceive as beauty in their realm. For them to catch a virus that makes them beautiful by our society standards is horrifying. In their realm ‘beauty’ is defined entirely different and for the witches you are ‘beautiful’ if you have warts, hairy chins, and large noses. It truly goes to show how perception can change everything and what one sees as normal, or beautiful, is not necessarily the same way another person may view it. Fascinating concept! I highly recommend!

Lyall Review by Tara Johnson Barnes
This the first book by Nadija Mujagic I have read, and I was a little disappointed. I was expecting to get my feet knocked off. I can see a lot of potential with this book. It is a good coming of age story and I saw some twist and turns. I was reading to see what was going to happen next. I enjoyed reading this story but just wish it flowed better.
This is a gripping crime mystery story full of suspense, which had me hooked from start to finish. Detective Maurizio Scala is in Rome, Italy, where he has a case to solve, a member of a foreign acting company has been brutally murdered. The Detective believes the last person to see the victim is a suspect, but then later fears he has a killer on his hands when she’s found by the river dead. As Detective Scala investigates he discovers that the apparent simple life of the victim is actually very complex. As more secrets emerge the Detective must stop the killer before they strike again. A thrilling whodunit, this is actually book four in a series, but I easily read it as a standalone story, however having been introduced to the Detective, I’m intrigued to read the rest of the series. The characters and setting came alive through the detailed descriptive narrative, and the plot twists kept me guessing as to the outcome of the story. An entertaining and engaging read, which I recommend.

One of my favorite stories when I was younger was that of Hansel and Gretel. This is the retelling of that story, with a nicer version than the original. I enjoyed the concept Lois conveys of helping someone in need. A very quick read with a good message. If you like classic children’s tales with a slight twist, this is the book for you.

How to Write a Historical Novel and Love It has quite a bit of information from the writing portion all the way to publishing. I did learn that there is way more to it than just writing a story. There are a lot of things to consider depending on what era you’re more interested in. The author wrote this in a way where everyone can understand and there are a few quirks in it to keep it from being too boring.

A classic enemy turned into a lovers story. Sylvia gives you a storyline and follows through with enough real life events to make you feel like you are living the book but adds the spice you always think about in your dark thoughts. Cash needs to save his bar but Hollis keeps pranking him. Will they call a truce and find the love they are meant to find?

This was such a beautifully written story, I really did enjoy it. The characters were well written and were likeable. Dean and Rae were both great characters to read about, their first encounter actually made me chuckle – Dean was not impressed but there was so clearly an instant attraction between them. They both had past issues that was preventing them both from even contemplating a relationship but I was desperately rooting for them both the whole way through the book. I think Rae was definitely my favourite character, she had such a wonderful personality and was so full of confidence and independence – I just loved her! Overall a lovely read that is well written. I would definitely recommend it to other readers.

Alam – Review by Katie Matthews
I always get excited when I see a new book from this author as I have read and enjoyed so many of hers and this was no exception. I will admit with was a dark romance read but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was well written with a great pace and flow to it. I loved the twists and turns and the characters were great to read about. This had a really gritty storyline that kept me turning the pages so I could see what was going to happen. The characters Nazario and Viviano were both really strong – I found them really interesting to read about especially Nazario – he was certainly different to what I expected! I highly recommend this book to people who enjoy the romance on the darker side! You won’t be disappointed!
I love this author so much! Her stories are so much fun to read and this new release from her was just amazing! I loved every minute of it and is definitely one of my favourite reads of 2023 so far! I loved the banter between Hollis and Cash – I’m pretty sure if they were younger they would pushing each other over in the playground and pulling each other’s hair! They had an undeniable amount of chemistry between them but hated each other equally! There were a lot of laugh out loud moments especially between the two main characters which made it very entertaining to read! I am really looking forward to the next book in this series!

Although some moments were entertaining and made me laugh, I felt there was no story here. I thought it was weird the author starts our female character out as a nine year old who cries everyday because she hasn’t seen “her boys.” It had me questioning her sanity. What really disappointed me was that we don’t see the three of them with a real friendship, and it’s not because they’re only dreaming of each other. I’m talking about the only interaction we see is the boys getting mad at her over ridiculous things. They yell at her for no reason and that’s a red flag. Another red flag is one of them punching the wall because she wants to be with someone “real.” And she has to apologize to them! The story does start to become steamy, and the characters begin to feel like there is some chemistry. Our female character starts to develop nightmares, which felt random, and the drama to go with it was barely there and made no sense. Overall the book just didn’t flow and for me felt all over the place since there was no real plot to the story.

This book was an ok read for me. I had a rough time getting into the book particularly the setting and the conversation between the characters hit me wrong. I thought the chemistry was good. I would like to try other books by this author because I just thing I had trouble relating to the atmosphere which made it sit in a tough spot for me.

I found this story to be fascinating. A murder mystery that could suck you in. It is the fourth book of the series but you can still read it as a standalone. I will be going back to read the others. I don’t want to share much as I feel with will give away too much. I can tell you that this is so well done. The storyline is perfect for suspense and mystery. I found the characters had me guessing. Just right! I think you should give this book a chance and read it. You won’t be disappointed.

Mann – Review by Shelly Kittell
This story had me giggling so much. Hollis and Cash are just meant for each other, if they can get over the prank war. I found their chemistry “sparkling” to say the least. Like Cash had shot a “load of sparkle” all over. This is one of the best contemporary romances I’ve read this year. The humor, drama, mystery with the other brothers and the excitiement between the two businesses made for some great reading. I couldn’t put it down. These two had “it” straight off from the start. It was fun watching them work through trust issues. Exciting writing, characters that felt like friends, you have to read this one. I can’t wait for the next book.

Such a beautiful story of two people set in their own way, finding a love beyond their imagination. Dean had a plan for his life that included marriage and family. When he is left at the altar, he walls himself off from being hurt like that again. Rae has her own reasons for avoiding love. These two must find it in themselves to let go of the past to move on to a live worth finding.

This was a great read. I have enjoyed everything this author had written in the past and this was no different. This story is very dark as well as steamy. What I love about the characters is just when you think you have them figured out you realise you don’t at all. The attraction and chemistry between Nazario and Viviana is strong and instant. Viviana is a strong female until she is with Nazario the she becomes so submissive to him. Viviana is a big surprise in this story. Nazario is a hard character to figure out, one minute I loved him and the next I hated him. One things for sure once you meet these characters you never forget them.
Viviana is set on a course for revenge. After Nazario’s father kills her friend Viviana will stop at nothing to make sure he pays. Even if that means pretending to be his mistress. All she thinks about is revenge until something gets in her way Nazario. Nazario wants his father gone too but at his hand. He knows how much he stands to gain from his father demise but also how much danger Viviana is in even trying to get revenge herself. Will they work together to rid the world or his father or will Viviana be hell bent on doing this her way? And what happens when his father is gone? Will they live HEA? Or will the new found power go straight to Nazario’s head? Will getting revenge against his father help Viviana heal or will it send her down a road she can’t escape from?
This story has it all, danger, secrets, lies, passion, revenge, and is a story you will not be able to put down or forget.
This was my first book by this author. I almost didn’t get it because of how long it is, but it sounded so interesting that I really wanted to read it. I’m glad I did! It was a fast read for me. To me it was very realistic and I got attached to Fenimore’s character from page one. This story is very well written. I definitely recommend giving this book a chance, despite its length.

Fallen Soul is the fourth instalment in the War of Destiny series by Theresa Van Spankeren. Each book in this series builds on what has come previously, making for a fantastic read. I highly recommend reading the previous three books before starting on this one, because as I mentioned, the instalments build on one another, creating a ‘bigger picture’, not to mention hours of entertaining adventure to plunge into. This is an original, clever and intriguing paranormal saga with vampires, action, adventure, high stakes, politics, agendas, atmospheric world building, danger, tense developments, violence, and plenty of suspense. Happy reading!

My emotions were riding a roller coaster in this novel. Simon is a good guy at heart, but his obsession with becoming a notorious outlaw gang member soon becomes something he dreads once he’s in Red’s gang. By the time he figures out it’s not what he wants, the bonds of friendships can’t be broken. Simon romanticizes what being in the gang is supposed to be like and things go sideways regularly. The daily danger and close quarters fuels a lot of emotions including feelings for one of his fellow outlaws. A relationship with another man is as dangerous as being an outlaw.
There is someone murdering gang members and leaving messages with the bodies. There were times I thought I knew who was killing the members of Red’s gang. The ending was surprising as to who the killer was! The Man In Black is an LGBT thriller and mystery that contains some violence, occasional foul language, and adult sexual situations.

“In this day and age with UFOs and UAPs being seen by military personnel and civilians alike, it seemed only appropriate that I include them in my latest book, “Mission 3047.” ETs, extraterrestrial beings, have been a part of my life for many years now. I have talked with many and have taken pictures of UFOs with my phone’s camera. You can see three of them on the cover. I was lucky, I guess, that the soul of a dear friend of mine cared to share her deepest fantasies with me and permitted me to write them as I saw fit. It was a nice fit since I love to write soul stories. All of my books include the story of at least one soul. My lifetime work has been to help souls heal and arrive at the destination here that most fits them and their particular gifts thus helping their human hosts heal as well. I hope you have enjoyed my books and have shared them with your friends.”
Mission 3047: One Soul’s Fantasy by Stuart Ledwith is another original offering from this unique author. This book tells June/Chloe’s story, along with some of the author’s own experiences making up the body of the story. We read of family, connections, secret missions, alien life, space exploration, time travel, sci-fi themes, new age concepts, and much more. Again, as with his other unique offerings, I appreciate the amount of blood, sweat, and soul that the author puts into his writing, as well as his unique take on things. The story definitely gets a little wordy in places but that didn’t detract from the overall story. Happy Reading…

I have always had 3 dream careers- teaching, librarian, and author. I have been a teacher for 6 years, I graduated with a degree in library science and I am currently a school librarian. So, that leaves only one dream, becoming an author. When I saw this book, I knew that I NEEDED to read it. I was instantly drawn into the book by Louis L’Amour’s quote, “Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on” I have been a big fan of his writing and knowing he said that has encouraged me. I have a journal of book ideas tucked on a shelf a work, and everything in me is screaming that I need to be writing more. I need to explore my passions more so that I can be successful at the craft that I dearly love. Each author offers golden nuggets of advice to readers.

What I Wish I’d Known: For Writers by H.D. Thomson is a great writing aide for anyone interested in becoming an author or people just interested in things an author experiences. Within these pages is a myriad of knowledge, tips, and information compiled from one hundred authors.
I really enjoyed getting tips from all the different authors because no one has the exact same experiences or ways of doing things. You get information on several different ways, just emphasizing how there’s no right way. You just have to find what works for you. With this variety, you should be able to find at least a few things to help you grow as a writer and get you one step closer to your dream of becoming published. This book is an easy, informative and interesting read that even includes advice from indie authors.

Lea Cherry is a new author for me and wow! I really enjoyed this read! This book is third in the series and I definitely recommend reading in order unlike me, I had to go back and catch up because I did feel as if I was missing info! However! What a great read! A lot going on and big choices to make for our MC. I found the book exciting, surprising and really a great series of books to get lost in! Definitely a YA book but at almost 30, I really did lose myself in them! The drama was to die for and the twists and turns had me hooked!

A Stranger in Disguise is the fourth book in the Inspector Scala Mystery series by P.J. Mann. I hadn’t read any of Ms. Mann’s books before, but I love a gripping read, so I was intrigued by what I would find here. What I discovered is a well-woven and suspenseful crime & investigation whodunit mystery- with murder, police procedure, drama, twists, secrets, and tension. This mystery is set in Rome, adding an extra element of interest to the whole story. With the staging of a cursed play comes murder and intrigue. We join the investigation following our stubborn detective as he endeavours to get to the bottom of it all. But with the body count mounting the case becomes more complex. What happens makes for an engaging read. I will definitely be going back to read the first three books, before continuing with the rest of the series. Happy reading…
