Be Brave With Me (Finding Love In Green Springs Book 1)Be Brave With Me by J.B. Havens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

These small town romance novels are a hidden treasure as they’re always so beautifully written and quite steamy to read. Set in the small town of Green Springs, Mississippi where the times heat up moment by moment.
In this steamy read, we follow characters, Meg and Drew. Meg who is heartbroken and grief-stricken, not once but twice, she becomes a nomad as she’s running from her past until she lands in Green Springs.
In Lee County, Drew has failed at his desired path of a football star on the rise. Now that he’s set into his comfortable country life, here comes Meg who comes along to shake his world up. Drew can sense the pain on Meg but will she let him unravel what she’s been through? Can Meg stay in one place long enough for Drew to help her? Should Drew be strong enough to release her?
I think this is one of the best stories I’ve read in a minute. I’m a sucker for a love story and an even more sucker for healing of any kind. This is a beautiful read and you’ll love how this one turns out.

FBI Special Agent Libby Irish seeks validation by outsmarting her male counterparts on the job. After unraveling a weapons ring, she finally believes she’s gonna get her due. That is until a revealing picture of her in front of the arsenal goes viral and she’s under the media’s radar but puts her as a joke to her fellow coworkers. If that’s not enough, Libby is receiving random letters from a secret admirer, an untamed cat attacked her plus someone has been sneaking into her house repositioning everything in there. That’s enough to make any girl go insane.
All the while speculates her gorgeous but lunatic of a next door neighbor. When devastation hits his home, he lends a helping hand to help the agent find her pursuer but she winds up seeing there’s more to her neighbor than meets the eye.

This book will most definitely keep you on your toes with the twists, turns and unexpected plus romance along the way. This is the third of this standalone series that will keep you hooked on this mysterious collection. I say collection because none of these books leave you without wanting more. Great reads, every single one because you can’t pick up one without starting another.

This leads to Libby seeing a different side of him, and they are determined to figure out who her stalker is. Megan Mitcham has not failed in this third story. She portrays yet another strong female lead in Libby. This story is full of suspense, thrill and romance, I just couldn’t put it down.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Be Brave With Me by C.A. Miconi is the first book in the Finding Love in Green Springs series. This is such an emotional story that will have you cheering on the characters all the way through.
This is a completely new author to me so I didn’t know what to expect when going in to it. I figured it would be another sweet, small town romance with the usual happy ever after.
Instead what I got was a book so packed with emotion that I found myself laughing in one moment and then crying my eyes out the next. The characters are what draw you into this book – they are both so broken and yet both so close to something new.
This is a brilliant book that I would highly recommend as well as a brilliant new author to explore!

5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the book Perfect by Tricia Copeland. It is a romance story that pulled me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until I read the last page. I loved reading about the character of Chloe. She is a young woman who is driven to succeed in the fashion industry. She is intelligent and independent. She also finds love and romance knocking at her door. Will she find her happy ending? I liked reading about Chloe and felt that the author does a wonderful job in developing and making her a character that I grew to care about and wanted her to be happy. The story is told from her POV. There are lighthearted moments that made me smile. This is a story about life and romance that you will not soon forget. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters in the book that Chloe interacts with. This is a story that you will not want to put down once you have started it. I highly recommend reading it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Both Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk were new author’s for me. I do like this genre quite a bit and I wasn’t disappointed in this book at all. Great plot and characters. This story has us meet Zuri who is Lucifer’s daughter and Miryam who is the daughter of Archangel Michael. I fell hard for Zuri, she’s strong, independent and smart. These two get together to help get back a stolen relic. Throughout the telling of this adventure you meet other archangels, as well as other creatures. The difference between Lucifer, Satan and beelzebub. It gives a unique spin on the Fallen and the Archangels. I can’t wait for the next installment.

This book in the Hero High series was good. I have enjoyed the story up to this point and Bargaining did not disappoint me as it helped me continue in the enjoyment of the series. Mina Chara has created a dynamic universe and I enjoyed my immersion in her world. I loved watching Friday become the heroine she was meant to be. I enjoy reading Mina Chara and will look for more from her in the future.

If angsty YA themes with romance thrown in are books you enjoy, this one is definitely for you. I cannot say that I expected the twists throughout the book but I will say Christensen did a great job generating a storyline with well developed characters and a plot that everyone can at least in part relate to. I found this to be an engaging read and a book I easily finished in one sitting. Recommended.

Lucifer’s Emblem is the first book in the Celestial Academy series by Sarah Biglow and Molly Zenk. This is the first book I have read by either of these authors. I can’t wait to read Book 2. This book had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until I read the last. This YA had a new and different twist on good verses evil. The characters are well defined and easy to relate to. Siri and Miry makes great foil to one another, which is why the story works. This is a great YA Paranormal read, and I highly recommend it.

5 Stars

Another amazing addition to this series. I have come to love this author and the writing style I’ve experienced in these books. This one had me paying attention with every word I read. It included everything I love in a story and took me through all sorts of emotions.

I think this might be my favorite of the three, the suspense had me on the edge of my seat and the twists, totally out of left field, I did have suspicions and thought I had a couple things figured out pretty quickly but the ride to the end I could have never predicted. I also love how there is just enough romance, just enough LOL moments and even a few that had me wiping my eyes.

I seriously loved this book and can not wait to revisit all 3 in this series and read them all over again back to back!

Grab it, heck grab them all, you will not be sorry!

Lucifer’s Emblem by Sarah Biglow & Molly Zenk a five-star read that will break you. This is number one in the Celestial Academy series and I can’t wait for more. Zuri is one of a kind, I like how she sees her farther and I like how it shows us a different side of Lucifer one never portrayed. There is a lot of action to this story and drama to keep you hooked, but most of all it has Zuri at the heart and she plays a great role in this story. There are great secondary characters that bring the story to life like Miryam and some that will frustrate and surprise you. This is a great start to the series and I cant wait for more.

How by Megan Mitcham a five-star read that will have you questioning how this author can ever beat this story. This is number three in the Stalker series and in my eyes it’s the best of the three and I loved number one and two, it could easily be read as stand-alone, but I have loved them as a series as I have loved the world building, it really has encapsulated me totally. Libby Irish is a fiercely independent and she reminded me of myself in some ways, the independence and the fact I could have shaken her a couple of times, the joys of hindsight I suppose. But overall, she was just a great character that I couldn’t get enough off, and I am not the only one. This had elements of something else in it, Libby’s story in places sounded familiar but the overall story blew me away and kept me hooked.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Turn up the Tempo (Lyrical Odyssey Rock Star Series Book 4) by Charli B. Rose is a wonderful romance story that will make your heart melt and bring out lots of emotions. Both our lead characters have fears from the past when it comes to relationships but they maybe just what each other needs and never knew they wanted. Charli has given us a story that has a little bit of everything for you to fall in love and hope beyond hope that they get their HEA. It’s a bumpy road they travel but what is true love if there isn’t twist and turns.

I loved this story. Even though it was a quick read it had plenty of emotion. Crystal, who just received news from her doctor, decided she’s going to have the time of her life at her best friend’s destination wedding. Crystal is a very independent woman and she is not looking for a relationship right now because she knows she’s going to have to deal with her medical issues when she gets home. Spencer who has always been seen as the nerdy friend has had a crush on Crystal for quite some time and she’s about to find out. This book had me laughing and tearing up, and of course swooning over Spencer. I became completely invested in these two wonderful characters, there are also wonderful supporting characters in this story. The author wrote this book in such a way that it touched my heart. I highly recommend this book.

How (Stalker Series 3) by Megan Mitcham is a good little psycho thriller. It didn’t turn out quite how I imagined but I was close.

She isn’t sure Dr. Dangerous, the villain, is who he is supposed to be. Being a part of the gold team has her starting to question things. Is she doing the right thing? Are all the cameras, the glitz and the glam, and the “villains” really what being a hero is all about?

Before leaving for her best friend’s wedding, Crystal got two shocks, one being some very upsetting health news and then seeing her friend/neighbor Spencer in a new light. So with this news, she is going to live life to the fullest on this vacation/wedding in Florida. Is Crystal ready to take her relationship with Spencer to another level and will she tell her friends the other news?

I recommend everyone giving this author and her writing a chance. I can’t wait to read more books in this series.

Crystal and Spencer have a quite realistic relationship and very unique. I like how the author didn’t make things so obvious and that there was a lot of twists to this romance.

This story is about lost chances and living everyday as it’s your last. Sunshine Kisses is following the character of Crystal who after hearing some news from her doctors does just that want’s to experience life in general.

Crystal makes her way to her best friends wedding where she is determined to have a holiday romance, a no strings fling but will this fling be no strings. Spenser was the nerdy kid that everyone wanted as a friend but never a boyfriend, he has always loved Crystal but will she see past the friend thing and think him move as lover material.

You will need to read the book, I loved the characters and my heart went out for these two characters. The story was well constructed and flowed really well, with the interaction between all the characters believable.

This is the first book I had read by this author I really enjoyed every word and could not put it down. I would definitely recommend this book to people who like a good romance and a fighting for the character story. I will be reading more from this author in the future.

For a quick read it definitely full to the brim with an incredible storyline and characters that I loved from the moment this read began. It’s actually quite a touching book, to see the difference in Crystal from the beginning of the read to the end, how she changes her outlook toward Spencer and also the outlook she has on her life after her medical issue comes about. The relationship that she and Spencer have straight away was a great building point for them but to see it develop over the next couple of weeks into one that was real, raw and undeniable was beautiful to see, and I loved that Spencer never gave up, and kept persevering with proving to Crystal what they could really be! I loved it, it gave me all the feels you could want from a romance read! I loved this author and her writing and I am looking forward to reading more!

Love is what you bake of it is a lovely heart warming book about accepting the things you can not change and trusting the people around you.

Kally is a great character who has been battered in the past by love and is happy now creating her master pieces in her cafe until a unexpected thing happens and can she embrace love or drive him away with her trust issues. Will past events dictate future loves you will have to read to find out.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book as a great summer read, the story flowed brilliant and I felt I could really relate to the main characters. I enjoyed the story of secrets being revealed and the humour, with also the interaction of the secondary characters makes this a great book.

This is the first story by this author and I can’t wait to read the second in this instalment, I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a great story and happy romance.
