Romance in Rehoboth Boxed Set (Books 4-6): A Small Town Romantic Comedy Series by K.L Montgomery is a really fun read- and great value for money. Three books in one #WINNING!!! The boxed set is comprised of Badge Bunny (Book #4), Wedding Wars (Book #5) and Stage Mon (Book #6)- all are full-length, standalone stories, and each book centres on its own particular characters/couple. The stories differ storyline, feel and tone- but they all are set against the backdrop of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

 

Badge Bunny (Romance in Rehoboth Series Book #4)

Brynne Miller is a busy ER Doctor, who has a penchant for a man in uniform, dating so many that she’s earned the nickname of “Badge Bunny’ (which she hates). But, Brynne has decided that they’re all the same, full of themselves- and has sworn off them all.

Chris Everson is a State Trooper who is a bit of a man’s-man. There is a lot more to him than meets the eye. His job means he frequents the ER on ‘business’. He’s immediately attracted to Brynne, but she is quite prickly and doesn’t give him a chance.

Brynne’s first impression of Chris was less than impressive- he annoys and frustrates her. But these two find themselves at the same wedding- and a major crisis demands that they work together to handle the situation.

With them both keeping things close to their chests, what happens when everything is revealed? Will Brynne let go of her first impression of Chris, admit that she’s attracted to him, and give him a chance? Does romance ever stand a chance of developing?

 

Wedding War (Romance in Rehoboth Series Book #5)

Jason Friday`s family operates a local business catering to grooms. They are the sworn enemies of Hannah Robinson’s family- who owns the local Bridal shop. The feud has been on-going, but what happens when a wedding one stop shop chain store sets up shop in town? These two will need to come together to take on the big business, and find a way to work together to save both their family businesses. What happens here makes for a funny and very romantic story! Definitely one of my favourites of the series, so far!

 

Stage Mom (Romance in Rehoboth Series Book #6)

Larissa is a single mother with a special needs daughter who is participating in the Little Miss Rehoboth pageant. Larissa is determined to ensure that her daughter is treated like all the other children in the pageant.

Mateo is the new director, his family have been running the pageant for years, but this is the first time that Mateo has been trusted to oversee the whole thing by himself.  He has a lot riding on this. He has some radical ideas for improving the show- but not everyone likes change.

The chemistry between the two starts to sizzle as these two try to hide their attraction. Getting involved will only complicate things even more. Won’t it?

Such a great story!!!

 

As I have said so many times before, I love  all Ms. Montgomery’s stories- she really is a gifted storyteller, and is easily able to pull readers into her ‘world’, keeping them connected and captivated the whole way through. I love how her stories depicts characters who are realistic, relatable, and entirely believable.

This box set really is worth your time and money, not only is it a great buy, you get three wonderful, full length stories to enjoy. #WINNING!!

 

Thank you, Ms. Montgomery!

Romance in Rehoboth boxed set book 4-6 was a great collection of books you don’t want to
miss out on. These books all focus on different couples and every reader gets to decide which couple is their favorite or which book is your favorite. I really enjoyed this set of books.
There was the romance and the teasing fun that kept me going in these books.
My favorite had to be Chris and Brynne. I think they are one of my top 5 favorites.
The characters are ones you can relate to and will find yourself loving throughout the books. The author did a great
job as always giving the readers characters we can love.

Love is What You Bake of it (The Meraki Series Book 1) by Effie Kammenou

Pastry chefs have a very special place in my heart, my older daughter is one and I know the work and dedication it takes to be successful. Kally has worked extremely hard to have a successful business and the pride she has in that comes through.

Max is starting over in his hometown. He got my respect early on when I found out a little more about him and as I learned more my respect for him grew. He is definitely the type of guy any parent would be happy to see their daughter bring home.

I believe it’s the little details that add so much to a book and Ms. Kammenou did a great job with the little details about each of the characters and their stories. I really loved learning a little more about the Greek culture and cuisine and I look forward to getting to know the Andarakis family more and watch each of them develop and grow.

What a great read! I loved this book and the characters in it.
Kally and Max both bring a lot to the table separately and their story just hooked me and didn’t let me go.
I really felt like i was in the book with them and Max’s daughter, I loved her from the instant we met her.
This book really has it all and I will be reading more from this author in the future.

Midnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski – Review by Jonell Collins

Midnight in the House of LangMidnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Midnight in the House of Lang, by Bree M. Lewandowski is a sweet little romance. There is sadness in it, but isn’t that like real life. I especially like the way the author describes grief, because that’s exactly what it feels like. There is so much hope in this story and so much happiness that the grief doesn’t bury you. The romance between Thea and Irek is a precious thing to behold, but the love between a man and a woman isn’t the only kind of love and this book makes that clearly evident. There is humor, there is drama, there is adventure, and plenty of action. This story has it all. Ms.Lewandowski has a new fan.

Romance in Rehoboth Boxed Set (Books 1-3): A Small Town Romantic Comedy Series
by K.L. Montgomery

I loved all three books in this series. Each of these are standalone stories and wonderful in their own way. These books have wonderful heroines and great male characters as well. Each of these stories are not without obstacles but those are overcome and there is romance and love to be found. This author warmed my heart and made me laugh with her ability to draw me into these relatable stories and got me invested in the characters. I highly recommend this box set, it has a little bit of something for everyone in each of these books.

Midnight in the House of LangMidnight in the House of Lang by Bree M. Lewandowski
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had no idea what I was walking into with Midnight in the House of Lang by Bree M Lewandowski. She is a new author to me and dystopian novels usually don’t get to the top of my reading list. I had to know what this book was all about once I saw the cover and the blurbs that came with it. I love the idea that steampunk plays a heavy role in the story as this normally fascinates me. I am so glad that I gave this one a chance and a read as this book was nothing like what you would expect. I normally struggle with an overt amount of details that we are bombarded with in most dystopian books but in this one it was as if a beautiful painting was being done in front of me of this magnificent both scary and gorgeous new world that Lewandowski has created. I imagine the colors are vibrant with the dusty hues of the old days when things felt safe. We find ourselves following Thea through and adventure in the year 3034. Thea is starved for a less fancy and ruled life and craves both freedom and normalcy. She may not get exactly what she asks for when she meets the handsome man who will be the center of her attention. I loved so much about this story and I am anxious to see what will come next from Bree M Lewandowski!

Anger by Mina Chara is the second book in the Hero High series. This is a series that needs to be read in order.
This book carries on right from where the first book finishes. It is full of intrigued and mystery. It is such an exciting book to read. I was absolutely hooked right from the start and it really felt like the pages were turning themselves.
This is such a brilliant series and one that I am genuinely enjoying. I cannot wait to see what else is to come.

Rise (The Larussio Legacy Book 2) by Via Mari

5 Stars

I have fallen so deeply for Gio and Serena. Their story so far is full of so many moving parts and it’s not over yet. I just don’t know how Serena is still holding it together because her adventures in these books have totally worn me out. It must be love LOL

The action and suspense is nonstop and I felt like I was right there during all of it. That’s just how this author writes, she reels you in and then doesn’t let go even after you have read the last word, especially knowing there is more to come.

I had some questions after the 1st book and the ones that mattered were answered for me in this one. I love how so many characters we have met as far back as the first series are still weaving in and out as well as meeting some new characters along the way.

This was a perfect addition to this series and you might want to have a fan handy while reading.

As usual I can not wait for the next and if you have not read any of these books yet, look them up and go all the way to the start of all of these stories..I promise you will not be sorry!

Love is What You Bake of it (Meraki, #1)Love is What You Bake of it by Effie Kammenou
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love Is What You Bake Of It is the first book in the Meraki series by Effie Kammanou. Effie Kammenou is a brand new author to me and I’m now wishing that I had discovered her work sooner as I absolutely loved this book.
In this book Kallyope (Kally) Andarakis is loving life as the proud owner of coffee shop ‘The Coffee Klatch’. She has a wonderful, supportive, if not a bit overbearing, family who she adores. One thing she doesn’t have is the love of a good man. Having struggled to get over the loss of a man she loved years previously, she has sworn off men.
Max Vardaxis has moved back home with his young daughter Athena following the tragic loss of her mother. He wants to start a new life for him and Athena and provide her with some stability in her life. That certainly does not include a woman. Well, that is until he comes face to face with Kally.
This is a great romance story that has so much packed into it’s pages. It takes us back to the past to witness events from years ago, not just for Kally and Max but also other family members whose stories are essential to add to the plot of this one. The story is very well written with a great flowing storyline and really great, realistic characters who all add so much to the story.
Max and Kally’s story will provide laughs and tears and drag so many emotions from you. As with any true romance, the path does not go smoothly. There are misunderstandings between the 2 and also parts of their pasts that come back to cause problems.
I’d definitely recommend that you read this book if you like a good romance novel.

Of Magic & Scales by Natalina Reis – Review by Karyn Taylor

Of Magic and ScalesOf Magic and Scales by Natalina Reis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Of Magic and Scales is a great M/M fantasy, romantic thriller by Natalina Reis that had me captivated from the very beginning, right up to the very end. It is my first read by this author and I’m pretty sure it won’t be my last as I enjoyed this book very much.
I do like a good M/M romance but this one is that little bit different in that one of the main characters, Nael, is a merman (or merrow as they prefer to be called). If, like me you are wondering how to pronounce Nael’s name it’s pronounced Nuh/l/ (It was annoying me to the point that I messaged the author to ask!.
Aiden Mercer has been able to see magicals since he can remember and he’s not their biggest fan since he’s had a few unpleasant run in’s with some of them. That all changes when Nael Fourchard enters into his life. Many magicals are being murdered and Nael wants Aiden to help him find out who the killer is. Added to this is the incredible sexual chemistry between the 2 men although Aiden finds Nael very rude and abrupt and doesn’t like him very much.
What follows is a great tale of intrigue and mystery, delving into the world of witches, fairies, trolls and many other magical creatures as Aiden and Nael try to find the killer, putting their lives in great danger on many occasions.
This book has some great secondary characters, in particular Aiden’s assistant at his coffee shop and especially Nael’s younger sister Vee. I absolutely adored Vee. She has absolutely no filter and is hilarious.
This is a great read but has left some questions still to be answered (I’m not going to give any spoilers), so I’m really hoping that there is more to come from these fantastic characters.

Holding Out for You by Anna Paige – Review by Karyn Taylor

Holding Out for YouHolding Out for You by Anna Paige
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holding Out For You is a fantastic ‘brother’s best friend romance’ from Anna Paige. This was the first time that I had read any of this author’s work but I’m a sucker for a brother’s best friend book and the blurb really called to me. I’m so, so glad that I chose to read this book as I loved it so much.
This book is the story of Blair and Ashton but there are really 4 main characters to the story: brother and sister Becker and Blair, along with Becker’s best friend Ashton and Blair’s best friend Charli. For years Blair and Ashton have been at each other’s throats, constantly squabbling and antagonising each other but deep down both were in love with each other without the other knowing. Now grown up they have declared their feelings for one another but the course of true love never runs smooth. For instance, on the night they first admit to having feeling, a horrifying event takes place.
I loved the characters of Ashton and Blair, particularly how Ashton protects Blair after the horrifying event takes place. (Not giving any spoilers, you’ll just have to read the book to find out).
I also loved this simmering attraction between Becker and Charli. These 2 really need their own book so we can get their full story. Seeing how protective and loving Becker is towards his sister, I’d like to see more of him.
This book is very well written, with amazing realistic characters and a storyline that flows freely and keeps the reader engaged from beginning to end. Anna Paige is definitely an author that I’d love to read more of now, having thoroughly enjoyed this book. 100% recommend this book!

Music Man (Romance in Rehoboth Book 1)Music Man by K.L. Montgomery
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Music Man is the first book in the Romance in Rehoboth series by K.L. Montgomery. This is a series of stand-alone romance novels set in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Montgomery is an author I have read before, in fact I have read one of the other books in this series. I have thoroughly enjoyed the other books I have read by her and had high hopes for this one. I was not disappointed.
This book is slightly different from many romance novels in that that our hero and heroine, Jack and Claire are already a couple. This book explores some of the difficulties that couples can face when one tries to follow their dream.
Jack is a music teacher and enters a music competition (urged by Claire to do so) and is stunned when he wins. This leads to further competitions and then to him going on tour with some of the other contestants. This is what he’s always wanted to do. It’s his dream…or is it?
Jack soon discovers that being away from his beloved girlfriend Claire and his adorable daughter is much harder then he though. Added to that, those running the tour are trying to make it look as if he’s having a relationship with one of the other artists. This puts a massive strain on his relationship.
I really enjoyed reading this story. It flows really well and the characters are great. It has the addition of some really great secondary characters that add so much to the story. I enjoyed reading as Jack participated in the competitions, his excitement and nerves.
All in all, this is a really sweet romance story with great characters that provides a very enjoyable read.

Hail MaryHail Mary by Hope Anika
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hail Mary is a fantastic romantic thriller by Hope Anika. I had never read any of this author’s work before this book and I’m so glad that I chose to read it as it’s worth more than 5 stars in my humble opinion.
The 2 main characters are absolutely brilliant. Wynn has had a rough upbringing and now runs a farm and a rundown boarding house. She’s one feisty woman I’d definitely not want to get on the wrong side of. She takes no prisoners and will fight to the death for those she loves. Beau is the new sheriff in town. A job he didn’t really want but was pushed into by his aunt. Beau is ex-military and DEA and has a lot of baggage from his past. He was badly injured and his wife was killed by someone Beau was investigating while working at the DEA. He’s moody, arrogant and a woman is the last thing on his mind. That is until a bank robbery leads him to Wynn’s boarding house and then a serial killer from the past comes back. So much for an easy job being a sheriff in a small town!
The interaction between Wynn and Beau are actually hilarious. She does nothing to hide her distrust for the law and he gives back as good as he gets.
What is fantastic about this book is the plot. The suspense and intrigue grabs you and does not let you go. At times you hold your breath and have to remind yourself to breathe again. Just when you start to think you might have it sussed out, the story twists and you find it going in a different direction. I have to say that I would never have sussed out who was the killer.
You really have to give this book a try. It will not disappoint.

By K.L. Montgomery
5 out of 5 stars

The stories in Romance in Rehoboth Boxed Set (Books 4-6): A Small Town Romantic Comedy Series by K.L. Montgomery are books that I loved reading. They have amazing storylines and characters that come alive as you are reading. I love the back and forth banter that occurs between the main characters as well as their interactions between the other characters in the stories. These books are romantic and had my emotions going up and down. I felt like I was right there with the characters and I found myself caring about what happens to them, always hoping that they find happiness. Will Chris and Brynne, Jason and Hannah, as well as Larissa and Mateo all find their happy ever after? Read these books to find out. There are times when reading that I would be laughing out loud at what happens and there are also heartwarming moments. I was always wondering what was going to happen next. Don’t miss out on three amazing stories in this incredible series. I highly recommend them.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Adorable character, Kally Andarakis sweeps us off our feet as she’s heavily indebted in her cafe business, The Coffee Klatch.
Kally never believed she deserved love or the happiness it brings. That is until she meets an addictive stranger who is above her means but he comes with challenges. Kally is heartbroken and ill-trusting after some secrets are revealed during a misadventure.
Eight years down line, we find Kally living the life as it is as perfect as she’s always dreamed of. That’s when she meets Max Vardaxis, an unexpected stranger, others bring her life into a tailspin from meddling relatives arguing back and forth to an energized grandma. Kally is also trying to solve the mystery of what happened to her grandfather while balancing Max is a whole other story.
In this book we find out if Kally is to take another risk (all for love) or shut it down as she’s done in the past.
I enjoyed reading this one. So many unexpected and unpredictable turns. Kally’s life is as unpredictable as ours is in reality. Juicy read. Another page-turner. I may have to re-read it!

Denial (Hero High Book 1)Denial by Mina Chara
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve enjoyed this young adult genre more than most teens I know or young adults. In this futuristic mystery, we go into the world of Icon City, a haven for one percenters. You instantly fall in love with the characters, especially the main character who has a powerful personality which is set to inspire the readers.
She’s fully aware of her personality which brings her great strengths in a lot of ways plus she’s aware of her surroundings and how it affects her.
In this fantasy, she used to be a “normal” 17-year-old girl until her dad found out she had superpowers and shipped her off to a famous school for powered people of the world — Hero High.
At Hero High, she lives in the SuperStructure where cameras follow her every move. People with powers have just as many expectations on them as humans do with the pressures they succumb themselves to. Through this she’s making money for the family and she’s starting to see the place for what it is.
She is us as we’re along for the ride with her as she takes on the role of hero as she attempts to discover the identity of an unknown villain and their intentions with the school. She’s a selfless hero in for the ride no matter the consequences.
Great adventure with mysteries. Fun read full of action-packed pages full of unpredictable twists and turns. Very fun to get through.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I have read quite a few books by this author now and what always has me coming back to her is her beautifully detailed writing. Her stories have such a lovely flow to them that are a real pleasure to read. I didn’t even bother reading the blurb when I decided to read this book; the title caught my eye straight away.
Love is What You Bake of it was a wonderful romance read. I loved the characters Kally and Max (aka Officer Hot Buns) they were great to read about and both really relatable. The book kind of reminded me of one of my favourite films with the Greek family parts – there were some very entertaining secondary characters. There were some very funny moments in this story and I absolutely loved every minute of it. I think this is definitely my favourite book by this author so far! I look forward to more from her again in the future!!

This was a fantastic read! I love a good romantic suspense story and I have read books by this author before so when I saw this one I knew I had to grab it! Once I started the first page I knew it was going to be a good read and I was not wrong – I was hooked from the very first page until the end. I loved Beau and Wynn – they were both fantastic characters. I really felt for Beau and the author did a great job with his character, he was miserable and grumpy on the outside but underneath was something different. Wynn was great to read about – she was headstrong and full of sass! She was so entertaining. The tension between the two characters was so much fun to read about and it made me want them to end up together all the more! Along with Beau and Wynn there were some amazing secondary characters that really added something extra to the story.
I 100% recommend Hail Mary and I look forward to reading more from this author again in the future!

Music Man was yet again another wonderful read from this author! I always fall in love with her stories so easily because they just feel so real. The characters are easy to connect with and Ms Montgomery writes about them in such a way that they do come alive on the page. I loved the characters Jack and Claire, they were relatable and I was really rooting for them the whole way through. I love reading about older characters, it definitely makes them more relatable to me as a reader. I really loved Claire! I thought she was an awesome character; one of those that you really wish was real because you just know they would make an awesome friend! The inner dialogue really made me feel like I knew her personally!
Music Man was a fantastic read and I 100% recommend it! I cannot wait to read more from this series!

Oohhhh I love a good sports romance so when I noticed this book by an author whose work I really enjoy I couldn’t wait to get started and I wasn’t disappointed at all! It was full of sass, romance and lot of spiciness!! This story definitely had me laughing my way through it! The banter between Roy and Patience certainly kept me entertained from beginning to end; they definitely knew how to rub each other up the wrong way!! Right from the very beginning they just didn’t get on but it didn’t take long to see that there was going to be something there between them – I know I was rooting for them the whole way through!
I am really looking forward to reading more from this author in the future – she has a wonderful writing style that makes her books a real pleasure to read! I definitely recommend The Player!!

The Explorer (Mountains, #6)The Explorer by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I find books by this author so difficult to review now because I always write the same thing but that’s because every single one of her stories is just so wonderful to read. They are always different, they explore different things and I always feel like I have learnt and take something away with me from her stories once I have finished reading them.
I loved the blurb for this book it was so vague that it really felt like I was going into this story blind but as usual what I got from Ms Alexander was a wonderful main character in Abby and getting to read about her life as she navigates coming of age. I loved reading about Abby in previous stories so to now get her own book was really special, I feel like I really know her as a person.
This book could be read as a standalone but I would highly recommend the Mountains series from the beginning!

Wow – just wow! I’m honestly not quite sure where to even begin with this review – this has to be hands down – the best read of 2020 and in fact one of my favourite reads ever. I don’t think I can even find the words to do this book justice! I have read all of the books this author has written and she is one of my all-time favourite authors so I already knew I was going to love it – I’m not sure that I was prepared for just how amazing it was going to be. My emotions were all over the place with this book (I’m not even sure I can blame post pregnancy hormones now seeing’s as the baby is almost 5 months old!) I laughed and I cried, I didn’t know how I would feel from one [age to the next. The characters Cade and Winter were amazing! Cade – yep totally in love with him and I may even have a woman crush on Winter! I loved the two of them together – electric and passion galore!
Cade is a raw emotional read and one that will stay with me for a while – in fact it’s one I cannot wait to read all over again! I 100% recommend you one click this story today!!

Cade (Default Distraction #3)Cade by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Default Distraction is a chart-topping band with let me just put this lightly, major success.
We follow drummer and a Morello, son of a Mafia boss, we see Cade expose a more vulnerable side to himself.
We find that Cade Morello is running from something that happened in the life but hasn’t looked back since.
Cade finds himself falling for the band’s lead guitarist’s little sister who has grown up right before his eyes who he thinks will freeze him out.
He has to prove his love for her to show her it’s legit. With every sense of his being, he knows it’s real and he’s in it for the long run. He’s down for the ride no matter where it takes him.
The problem with their love is they’re from two different worlds, two different countries and the world tells them it won’t work and it won’t make sense.
She’s a boss of her own: Keeping her business in check, pushing orders, and living her way on her own time. This is a world she embraces.
The difference with her and Cade is she’s not willing to lay down her guard while he’s putting it all on the table. She believes he’s too much to handle for her.
In this ride of a story, it’s exciting and unpredictable but worth the risk to delve into these character’s lives. Such a fun and interesting read. I couldn’t wait to get through the book just to review it. One of the best books I’ve read in a minute. I highly recommend it!

SerenadeSerenade by T.K. Lawyer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A wolf without a partner and a witch who isn’t on the prowl.
Kingsley gave up on meeting the love of his life when his life was turned upside down by Eva who has a mystery for him to solve except he doesn’t know how.
Eva has an infectious laugh, scrumptious curves, and a smell that simply undoes him.
Eva gave up on men a long time ago but there’s something about Kingsley that makes him different. He’s determined, motivated, loving, and unlike any other man she’s dealt with before.
Eva is a precarious one. . .
In this opposites attract story, the two are drawn to one another. This book will have you on the edge of your seat as we follow this unique fuel turns to seduction. Beautifully written and a journey to go on with the writer through the reader’s perspective. I loved this one start to finish!
