Ride with the Moonlight (Thunder On The Moor #2) by Andrea Matthews
This is the second book I’ve read by Matthews. The second book in the Thunder On The Moor Series. Better than the first and easier to read.
Maggie has saved Will from her family. She soon finds herself in quite some trouble. Having to go back to Ian isn’t something she wants to do. Losing her family is also something she doesn’t want to do. The quote I chose for Maggie is: “But don’t you see? You’ll be condemning me to far worse. My life’s already spent, my very heart hanging from a gibbet for the crows to . . . Please don’t let Geordie hand me over to Ian. I’m begging you.”
Will has fallen for Maggie. He doesn’t know how things are going to go considering that her family is after him. He soon finds that things aren’t going well. The quote I chose for Will is: “Ye canna blame yerself for believing Ian Rutherford’s lies. He’s a wicked creature, that one, with a silver tongue. Ye werena the only one to be deceived. Even yer Uncle Geordie believed him, and he’s a canny auld fox, or so me brother Walt says.”

Perdue is heading to Vegas for a party. Little does she know that she’ll run into an ex-fling. She needs a roommate and needs one fast. Doing podcasts is her life, but things don’t go as planned. The quote I chose for Perdue is: “My father died. I had no one, and I went to you, and you treated me like I was exactly that. Like I was no one. Like I didn’t mean shit to you. I didn’t ask for much, I just asked for a family. I don’t understand how you can sit here and say how bad your family is when you are literally exactly like them. You gave me up for a status. And yet I can’t wrap my head around the fact that you never once apologized. You didn’t care. You didn’t ever care about me.”
Ash was once upon a time a married man. His family didn’t like his fling and he left her for them. When he answered an ad he got the shock of a lifetime. He wants the girl and he will get her. The quote I chose for Ash is: “Sir, raisins in a potato salad is an absolute abomination and anyone that says otherwise should be tarred and feathered.”
Highly recommended for contemporary romance lovers.

The quote I chose for Derek is: “No, we’ve definitely met before. Your hair is different but I’d never forget that face. You’re the runaway bride!”
Highly recommended for Dark Romantic Suspense lovers.

Biglow and Zenk know what they are doing. Hunted was a fantastic read! It’s like True Blood meets our crazy world. Vamps and Humans.
Edith has been a vampire since the 1900’s. She has only ever sired two Humans and her sire wants to make more. She meets two boys with the last name of her lover. The quote I chose for Edith is: “Humans and vampires both have their meals in the dining room off to the left.”
Darren is a Hunter and wants to keep his brother safe. When his younger brother wants to go to a Convention he follows. What he doesn’t know is his brother has just signed up to play a vampire. The quote I chose for Darren is: “Sorry about that back there. Don’t mind us. We’re brothers . It’s like my solemn duty to rough him up from time to time. Or, in this case, follow him to some crazy LARP weekend.”
Secure Boxed Set: Chase Security Series Books 1-3 by R.L. Dunn
Secure Desire (Chase Security Series #1)
Dunn has a way with bringing characters to life. This was a fantastic read and can’t wait for book 2. This is the first book in the Chase Security Series and my first read by the author.
Cassiopeia Ellis, Cassie, has lost her entire family and now people are coming after her. Something happened to her six years ago and she remembers bits and pieces. The quote I choose for Cassie is: “I promise you’re not. Life is too short, and there are tons of things to be afraid of. One thing I am very sure about is I’m not afraid of you.”
Ian Chase runs a high-end business. He met Cassie six years ago, but when he runs into her again he knows he has to have her. He wants to know everything about her, but things are tough in the beginning. The quote I choose for Ian is: “Some other tidbits? I know you prefer tea over coffee. Your favorite snack is gelato. I know you have a passion for high heels. Your favorite scent is honeysuckle. I know you love art—even pig art. You crinkle your nose when you’re thinking. Christian calls you ‘bunny’ because you used to have big ponytails that looked like bunny ears. You are a capable, brave woman, the strongest woman I ever met. I know I want to spend my life getting to learn everything about you and making you happy. When you are well enough, I want to take you to my bed and love you like you deserve to be loved.”
Secure Again (Chase Security Series #2)
The second book I’ve read and definitely not the last. This is the second book in the Chase Security Series, but it can be read as a stand alone. Dunn has a way of bringing you into the book.
Martin is the leading male in this book, but Ian makes an appearance. Going back to his hometown changes everything for him. Not expecting to rekindle the romance from his past. The quote I chose for Martin is: “Thank you, everyone. Those words are too few for all you are doing. I have some news for all of you. Today I made a life decision: I’ve adopted the infant injured in the trailer park fire. Lola Wyatt will be Lola Bailey by morning. In advance, I thank all her new aunts and uncles for being a part of her life. Second happy news: I plan to ask Elizabeth Reed to marry me the second she wakes up.”
Elizabeth, Beth, is a doctor who finds that guards are abusing the prisoners. When a cop is shot and she tends to him; she finds that it’s the younger brother of Martin. Not sure how things are going to go she faces the Bailey family. The quote I chose for Beth is: “That is a bleed. Eric, Patrick, recheck the CT. What vessel does it look like to you? There are multiple layers of collateral circulation from previous injuries. He follows his own book.”
Secure Heart (Chase Security Series #3)
Another great read by Dunn! This is part of the Chase Security Series, but can be read as a stand alone. Dunn has a skill of making you fall in love.
Julian is missing his wife and takes to the bottle. His family doesn’t know and his friends help him out. When he’s moved closer to family he finds himself falling. The quote I chose for Julian is: “I’m the hard a**, Julian Dupart. You two were hired to replace one person: Mia Donnelly. According to your resumes, each of you hold all the specific requirements to meet the conditions of this job on your own. You received huge salary bumps and countless perks. I walked down to your office with the intentions of getting to know you and discussing the issues concerning the branch. Instead, two blivets greeted me with attitude and boredom, wasting time playing games. Both of you are on notice. Go home now, and tomorrow, return with a new attitude and work ethic if you want to continue being employed by this organization. OUT!”
Holly is a single mom who isn’t happy. She finds that her kid is sick and wants to help. Things get tough and she isn’t sure who to turn to. The quote I chose for Holly is: “Well, Momma , I guess it’s my time to take over your business.”

Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon
Dannon has given us five holiday stories. A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem, Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem, Christmas Kiss New Year Wish, Christmas Kiss in London, and Christmas Kiss: But only for the holidays. The first reads by Joanne.
A Magical Christmas in Jerusalem
Kiara is coming to Jerusalem for a Christmas tour with her grandmother. When her grandmother says she’ll meet the love of her life Kiara is unsure. She runs into her tour guide and sparks fly. The quote I choose for Kiara is: “Do you know how much I’m eating? Everything tastes so good, I won’t be able to fit in my jeans.”
Jacques and his family run a tour guide company. He wasn’t expecting to fall in love. He wasn’t expecting for a tourist to capture his heart. He knows she’s the one. The quote I chose for Jacques is: “Bien sur. Of course. But what I don’t know is you. We’ve talked for hours but I hardly know anything about you. Tell me, Kiara, why did you come here? Was it to have a magical Christmas in Jerusalem?”
Another Magical Christmas in Jerusalem
Lucie is the youngest sister of Jacques. She is heart broken and wants to set it right. She meets Kiara’s friend and finds that she likes him. The quote I choose for Lucie is: “It may seem old-fashioned but it’s what I want. And I thought you might be the one. And it may seem silly that I’m twenty-nine and hoping to be swept off my feet by the right guy, but I am.”
Tom comes to Jerusalem for Kiara’s wedding. He’s also there for his sister. He never wanted kids or a family. Things change when he meets Lucie. The quote I chose for Tom is: “Even if only a few want to change, I can put them on the right path, so they can grow up and become good men.”
Christmas Kiss; New Year Wish
Taylor loves everything vintage. She also loves her best friend. When a kiss changes everything will they be the same? She wants to be with him, but is scared. The quote I choose for Taylor is: “He was shocked, truly shocked. His mouth opened but no words came out. He loves me as a friend, and if that’s all I’m going to get, then I have to accept it. I just hope he still wants me in his life.”
Luca has no clue his bestie is in love with him. Being in America for two years has made him realize how much he misses his family. The quote I chose for Luca is: “I came to see your shop and then take you for lunch. This place is smaller than it looks in the photos you sent me but you’ve done an impressive job.”
Christmas Kiss in London
Amber has been missing her bestie who now lives in America. She befriends someone online after sending him a friend request she forgot to delete. When they start chatting things change. Can she find her happily ever after? The quote I choose for Amber is: “I know. But I’ve never had a lot of friends, and I was scared to travel on my own. If I analyse myself, I would say that my parent’s lack of acceptance of me and my work made me feel inadequate. If they’d encouraged me, perhaps I would’ve had the confidence to see all of this sooner.”
Darcy is a stuntman and loves what he does. He doesn’t see himself settling down. His career is important to him. When he gets a friend request from Amber he learns that he wants more. The quote I chose for Darcy is: “You most certainly will not. He shags every woman he can. I don’t want to hear about him going after you.”
Christmas Kiss: but only for the hoildays
Jenna is a model who doesn’t want kids. She soon learns that things can change for the better. She learns how to be a better daughter, a better sister and a better friend. The quote I chose for Jenna is: “It sounds silly but it is easier prancing around in next to nothing on a stage, because I’m acting. Sharing feelings, talking from the heart…it’s not really me.”
Leo is career driven and wants a family. He also needs a fake girlfriend. He goes to a friend for help, but will it turn to more? The quote I chose for Leo is “My parents reminded me that families come in different shapes and sizes. And I know that you won’t change your mind on having a baby the traditional way, and I’m not going to ask you to do something you don’t want to do. A baby is a lifetime commitment. It’s hard work. So, I have a compro‐ mise. Can you consider adopting or fostering a teen? But we’ll be doing it together. Not now. But maybe in a few years?”
Not my first read by King, but my first holiday read for the season. King really keeps a reader’s attention and I love it. High Heels and Mistletoe is the perfect read!
Julietta gets a new client right before her vacation. Her boss needs a new contract signed and he puts her on the job. Until her family curse comes across. The quote I choose for Julietta is: “No, I’m acting like a lovesick puppy. I don’t know why he has this effect on me. Of course, I’m not the one.”
Luke is famous among the tabloids. When a girl falls into his arms outside the mall. He cant get her out of his mind and it’s pure luck that her father invited him to their house. The quote I chose for Luke is: “You are still a Christmas naysayer, I see,” Luke mused. “I’ve made it my personal mission this year to change that.”

The North Wind Descends (The Lord Hani Mysteries #4) by N.L Holmes
This is the fourth book in The Lord Hani Mysteries Series. Holmes has done it again. She knows how to capture a reader’s attention. I can’t wait for more of her work.
Lord Hani is conflicted. He wants to protect his family, but he also has a job to do. Things aren’t easy for him and he doesn’t know what to make of it. The King’s attention and the Queen’s new task is taking a lot out of him.
Hani goes to find what is going on when he learns that he may have to do something when he doesn’t want to. The quote I chose for Hani is: ‘All these good people are here to wish me well. They’re probably happier than I am about this.’

Scepter of Flint (The Lord Hani Mysteries #3) by NL Holmes
The third book in The Lord Hani Mysteries Series and NL Holmes is fantastic. Holmes knows how to attract a reader’s attention.
