Degrees of Innocence Prestian Series Book One by Via Mari – Review by Robin Rankin

Degrees of Innocence (Prestian Series, #1)Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari is the first book in the Prestian series. I was expecting a hot and steamy story and I wasn’t disappointed at all.

Katarina and Chase have a great story about how they first meet. Who knew that one small moment would have such a big impact.

Chase is a thousand percent alpha but doesn’t come across as a jerk when he slipped into the alphabets. There were a few things he did that I might have to suggest to the hunny.

Katarina makes me a little sad but also managed to make me mad. I don’t understand why there is such a lack of communication at times. This book is just the beginning of the series and must be read before the others. The next books are already on my to be read list. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

Special Agent Charli (Undercover FBI Series Book 6) by Mimi Barbour – Review by Robin Rankin

Special Agent Charli (Undercover FBI Book 6)Special Agent Charli by Mimi Barbour
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Special Agent Charli is the sixth book in the Undercover FBI series by Mimi Barbour. I’m not sure how I missed this first five in this series but I did. Luckily this one at least is a standalone.

Charli is amazing, there is just no other way to describe her. For starters she is an FBI agent, plus she has a heart of gold and the worlds best Grandfather.

Blake finds his way to the life he is meant to have. He has accomplished a lot on his professional career with the police department but his personal life is not satisfactory.

I loved Poppa John and wish I had been lucky enough to be as close to my Grandfather.

This is the first book I have read by this author but it won’t be the last.

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises Book 3) by K.G Fletcher – Review by Robin Rankin

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises #3)Georgia Pine by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Georgia Pine is the third and I really hope not the last of the Southern Promises series by K.G Fletcher. I loved this book. There was something amazingly sweet and special about Jessica and Tim’s story.

I got tired reading this book and how Jessica kept up with four little girls aged six and younger. I was a single Mom with just one daughter and she wore me out couldn’t imagine having four daughters.

Tim reminded me a little of my husband, he jumped in and was instantly part of the family. It takes a special man to get involved with a single Mom and Tim was just that.

I hope we see more books in this series. I’m not ready to let this group go.

Eye of the Storm (Gray Ghost #2) by Amy McKinley – Review by Robin Rankin

Eye of the Storm (Gray Ghost #2)Eye of the Storm by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Eye of the Storm is the second book on the Gray Ghost series by Amy McKinley. The action started in the first sentence and didn’t let up until the very end, I enjoyed every minute of it.

Chris is amazing and I’m not just saying that because he shares a name with my husband. Even injured he did what he needed to do to take care of Mari and the situation they found themselves in.

Mari is the epitome of strength and bravery. She seriously had a set and I loved her for it.

When I started this series I wasn’t sure how much I would like it. You read one military special ops books you’ve read them all right? Not in this series. Can’t quite put my finger on what make it different in my mind. I just know I will be following this series until the end.

Georgia on My Mind (Southern Promises, #2) by K.G. Fletcher – Review by Robin Rankin

Georgia On My Mind (Southern Promises #2)Georgia On My Mind by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Georgia on My Mind is the second book in the Southern Promises series by K.G. Fletcher and I think I liked it a bit more than the first. There was just something about Gia and Hart that drew me in from the very start.

Hart was an immature playboy who to me acted like the world owed him. Thankfully he gets taught a very important lesson and finally decides to grow up and be the man his parents raised him to be.

Gia’s back story just made me sad. She has been through so much and she was busting her tail to hold on to the happy part of her childhood.

This was a great story and now I’m sitting here waiting for the next book in the series to release. Cannot wait to see what happens!

Broken Circle (Gray Ghost #1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Robin Rankin

Broken Circle (Gray Ghost #1)Broken Circle by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Broken Circle is the first book on the Gray Ghost series by Amy McKinley. What a way to start a series. Even after reading the synopsis I was surprised by some of the events that took place.

Olivia is a rock star. Married to an officer with NYPD I’m sure is stressful enough, but to add the added stress of the in laws she just amazed me.

This book took a totally different direction from what I was expecting but it was perfect. And the last three chapters…..

Cannot wait to read the next book!

Flirt: A College Romance (What Happens on Campus #2) by M.L. Sparrow – Review by Robin Rankin

Flirt: A College Romance (What Happens on Campus #2)Flirt: A College Romance by M.L. Sparrow
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Flirt: A College Romance is the second book in the What Happens on Campus series by M L Sparrow. This story was a lot heavier than I was expecting even though I knew what Riley was like in the first book. Found myself wiping tears away a couple of times.

Riley was hurting and didn’t know how to deal with it. Instead of talking to friends or family she starts partying and it goes down hill rapidly.

Cameron is a sweetheart and I wasn’t sure if he was right for Riley for that reason. He hasn’t had the easiest life but is making sure he has a better life in the future.

There were a few instances I wanted to just shake Riley and everyone else because of the way they were acting with her and found myself having a hard time being sympathetic even though I knew I should be.

I’m already looking forward to the next book in the series and hope it comes out soon.

Plot Twist (Romance in Rohoboth #3) by K.L. Montgomery – Review by Robin Rankin

Plot Twist (Romance in Rehoboth #3)Plot Twist by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Plot Twist is the third book in the Romance in Rehoboth series by KL Montgomery and I loved it! I found this series from the start and just fell on love with the series and the author.

I read a lot and though there are some aspects of the characters I can relate to, but overall I don’t feel like any of them. But in the books I have read by Ms. Montgomery I can really connect and understand the feelings of the big girl who is hiding in the corner and totally uncomfortable in her skin and with who she is and it’s so nice to connect with a character like that.

I loved Lindy from the very beginning and had such a connection to her. Her relationship with her best friends Megan and Heather remind me of mine with a few of my friends.

Meric is the type of guy I hope my daughter meets. He sees Lindy for who she is and now what size she is.

I am so hopeful that this isn’t the end of the series because I’m not ready to say bye to this group.
