Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington is a romance for the ages. Colbie is an amazing character who goes through some life-changing events. Will she still hear the music in her heart? I was taken in by her story and didn’t want to put this down. I was really blown away by the amount of attention and detail the author put into this story and think many will enjoy and appreciate the work she has done. What has come out of it is a beautiful story which shows the challenges that can be thrown at us and how Colbie overcomes her fears and insecurities to find her happy. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Michael’s Heart is a beautiful romance by Lori Thomas Harrington. This story had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. This is the first book I have read by this author but definitely won’t be the last. This book tells Colbie’s unique story, and the emotions I felt were off the charts. You definitely need a box of tissue while reading this book. I enjoyed the twist this story takes and the amazing end left me thinking about this book long after I finished reading it. I highly recommend this book.

Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington

This one is a doozy. The way the story is written and the characters is fantastic.

Colbie dies, and when she does, she meets Michael. When she wakes back up she has to figure out her next steps in life. Colbie starts to struggle with finding her music because of her longing for Michael. Although it is painful for her to leave Michael she can feel him in her heart. He gives her the inspiration to write. Colbie meets another man eventually and starts to develop feelings for him, but in the back of her mind, she can’t forget Michael.

This story has everything you could want in a book, romance, tears and happiness. I would definitely recommend this book!

5 out of 5 stars

The story Joined: Book One by Mara Gan is a YA/Science Fiction/Romance book. It is a story that pulls you in from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go until that final page. I loved the storyline and also the characters. The main female character is independent, strong, intelligent, and stubborn. She has a bodyguard that is overbearing and very protective of her. She also is finding herself with an attraction to him. The bodyguard is determined to keep her safe. He also feels the pull of an attraction to her. Read this book for their full story. This is a book that has action, danger, and romance. There are times when I was turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. There are other times when I was getting caught up in the romance between the main characters. This is a story that hooks you in and keeps your interest all the way through. It is a story that I would highly recommend reading.

Soppranaturale hotel is unlike any other hotel, this is the home to supernaturals and those who wish to battle must go to the Gauntlet.
The main character in this read ids the newcomer to Soppranaturale and can control the four elements, she is intelligent, fiercely independent.
This is a terrific read if you love supernatural novels where they coexist for the greater good.
I’m very excited to see where Ashlet takes this series. Ashley has you gripped from page one until the end.

The Gauntlet was an exciting and action packed novel that I absolutely could not put down. I was immediately drawn in with the main characters and their mention of souls mates at the start of the novel. I loved the magic and paranormal creatures in this book. They were very creative and fun. The author did an excellent job on all of the characters and their development. I also really enjoyed the storyline and found it easy to follow. This is the first book I have read from this author and I look forward to reading more. I highly recommend this book.

I thought this book was really cool. It was the first book that I have read from this author and I found the story to be quite original. It had vampires and fae but also several other supernaturals. The story takes place in a hotel with a hidden agenda. It’s a supernatural refuge! They live in peace while in the hotel. They only place they are allowed to fight is in the Gauntlet. The book was filled with action, mischief and love. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from this author.

The Gauntlet by Ashley Pagano a five-star read that will stay with you. This is one of those paranormal thrillers that will astound you, it is filled with characters that will surprise you at every turn. There was a great flow to this story, Ommily and Link are great characters but I also loved how the Hotel Soppranaturale was a character all of its own the secrets, and I kept wondering if I had found all of those secrets out as I was reading. I cant wait to read more from Ashley Pagano as she shows us real talent with the writing.

The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series By Ashley Pagano. I was definitely pleasantly surprised by this very magically engaging storyline. While this is a shorter story it doesn’t lack anything I’d want, it’s got a great storyline and characters I loved. How the author packed so much into a shorter story without confusion or feeling rushed took skills. It’s well written and paced nicely never. I definitely liked the unique approach that was taken, it’s nice to see fresh ideas. I’m excited to see where the author takes readers next. Five stars all the way and I highly recommend it. Couldn’t put this one down!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I give The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series by Ashley Pagano, 4 stars.

Ommily shows up at the Soppranaturale Hotel and Link immediately feels the pull towards her. But this isn’t possible, is it? Has he finally found another Faerie? He feel so much more around her, and they feel drawn to each other. They are two halves of a whole, created to work together. Circumstances then throw them into the Gaunlet. Can a woman who has just learned what she is and a man who swore to never turn to violence again win against the top ranking team? What will this mean for the future?

This was quite an interesting book. I liked both the main characters and cannot wait to learn more about the secondary characters. They are all so unique and exciting to me. Basing it around a supernatural hotel is also a wonderful idea. I love this concept. It was a very gripping story too. There are many things going on and a few surprises along the way. This seems to be the beginning of a great series and I anxiously await the next book in the series.

If you like supernatural books with action and romance, this book is for you.

I loved this book. I highly recommend reading the previous books in this series to help enrich your enjoyment of this series. I was pulled right into the story right from the beginning. The twists and turns as well as the suspense had me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. Lexy and Grayson are strong characters that make this story feel real and enjoyable to read. What happens when the past comes calling? Will they overcome their differences? A must read!

This was a great story about the supernatural world.

Link is a fairy who works at the Soppranaturale Hotel. The hotel isnt all that it seems as it houses supernatural beings as well as humans.

One guest arrived who appears to be more than she seems. When she connects with Link an adventure starts which ends with them in a battle in The Gauntlet.

Its a fast paced story that keeps your reading until the end

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really like the idea of supernatural beings living together in a hotel. It’s kind of like a mix between Altered Carbon and the adults from Harry Potter. With that those types of shenanigans bouncing around in my brain, this particular story was more serious that I imagined it would be, but that’s not a bad thing. It was really hard to not think of Link in a little green tunic and hat, and I really wanted him to call Ommily Zelda at least once. But she’s more like Shiek, in that Ommily is some one I would be able to view as a fighter more quickly.
The first couple sentences grab you with the odd details that make everything more real. I could see the puckering in the wallpaper, I could SEE Ommily moving from painting to painting. Ashley Pagano’s writing style is a bit odd but dang, if she doesn’t pull me along with ease.

The Gauntlet by Ashley Pagano is the first book in “The Soppranaturale Series”. I was drawn into the story immediately and did not want it to end. This is a quick read but worth the time. Ommily and Link are tasked with defeating the Gauntlet. Will they work together and win? I really enjoyed the characters of Ommily and Link. The two are different but similar in some aspects. I like that the two of them have powers that work together. This makes them a powerful team. Also, the other characters at the Soppranaturale are interesting as well. I look forward to more in this series and where the story will go in the future.

The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series is a short paranormal story of characters who are vampire, shape-shifters, witches and fae. The two main characters are the last two fae and this tells of them finding each other in a supernatural safe haven which is a hotel where they all live and work.
I enjoyed this book. I found it intriguing from the start. I wish there was more detail of how the hotel got started but I’m sure it will be in the other series, hopefully. I will keep reading the rest of the series to find out!

What a cool idea for a Paranormal story! A hotel with a floor and secret area for Paranormals to be themselves. I enjoyed these characters! They were fun and full of wonder. It took me a bit to understand who and what Link was let alone why he was so curious and excited about meeting Ommily. Once I figured all that out I was golden!

The secondary characters were fun and added a lot of smiles to the story. I would have hoped each of them would have gotten their own story in future books. I think we will be finding out more and more about Link and Ommily in future books but that seems up in the air. The book ends not on a cliffhanger but leaves the reader wondering how the characters will move forward.

Lexy

There’s one man in my life I’ve measured every other man against. One that makes my blood pound and my heart throb with longing. One I’ve wished I could have for myself since the day I met him almost eight years ago. Grayson Riggs. He’s everything I want and everything I’m determined to have. But what if the real him isn’t the man I’ve made him out to be in my dreams? What if he cannot accept me as his equal? What then?

Grayson

No matter how many women I’ve met in the last eight years, how far I’ve traveled or how many random hookups I’ve had, there is one woman who stays with me no matter what I do. One pair of eyes, so beautiful they haunt my dreams, one pair of lips I want to kiss over and over again for the rest of forever. Aless. I’ve tried to find her. I’ve traveled to Italy and New York many times hoping I’d be lucky, but I’ve never seen her again. I miss her. I want her. I’ll keep wishing on a star she’ll find me again.

When Lexy falls back into Grayson’s life and her past comes back to haunt her, will they be able to overcome their differences to make a relationship work? Or will their Alpha personalities push each other away? Will they be able to celebrate their One Love, or are they destined to be apart forever?

A refreshing change of pace, THE GAUNTLET is a tale of magical creatures who cohabitate in a way that helps keep the mystical secrets from the human world. Like the blurb says, it’s literally hidden in plain site.

This is the first book I’ve read by the author and I enjoyed the way ze wrote. Great world building, wonderful relationship development, humor, suspense and all around great writing.

I was able to read this in one sitting and absolutely recommend it.

The Gauntlet: The Soppernaturale Series by Ashley Pagano was such a fun short read! I went in blind, basing my interest solely on the fabulous and eye-catching cover that graces this jam packed little gem. I was pleasantly surprised by how much this book truly sucked me in and gripped me until the very last page. I look forward to seeing what else will come in this series, as well as what else is available by Ashely Pagano while I wait. She was a new author to me when I picked this up and so that is just an added bonus that I get to see discover her other works now as well.

There is so much going on in this little book based around an intriguing and bustling with activity hotel. There is a little of everything you could want in a fantasy and supernatural book, everything from witches and vampires to fae and magic. There is never a dull moment and I absolutely adored following along with Ommily. Might I just say I adore her name and was hooked on her character from the very get-go! I love her and she was just a fun character to read. I highly recommend this book and can’t say enough good things about it. For all the good details though, you will have to take my word for it and scoop it up to devour for yourself! You won’t be disappointed one bit that you did!

Michael’s Heart by Lori Harrington was a great emotional read. I would give this book a 4 out of 5 stars. I loved the character development and the theme that played a huge part throughout the story. I felt Colbie’s love and her challenges really resonated with my core. I loved the message of love and how powerful our craft, in Colbie’s case music, can be in making sure we are living our best life. The pace was very mellow and the story told thoroughly. While my impatient nature would have loved to rush through everything. I believe that Lori did exactly what these characters needed to be fully developed.

Colbie is a strong woman who has gone through some dark times in her life and music is the beacon of light out of the darkness. Colbie and Michael’s relationship is a complex story that is very enthralling to read. I also love the relationship between Colbie and Lyric. Great book.

4 Stars

The Gauntlet is the first book in The Soppranaturale Series by Ashley Pagano. It is a short, easy, original, and intriguing paranormal story that really was so much fun to read. I loved Ms. Pagano’s Never Fear the Reaper series and so when I saw this pop up in my recommended books feed, I knew I just had to read it. Gorgeous cover and intriguing blurb aside- this book is full of action, adventure, magic, secrets, supernatural and paranormal beings, fate/destiny, discovery, battles, and finally finding where you truly belong.
The story is set in The Soppranaturale Hotel which is actually an ’undercover’ sanctuary for paranormal & supernatural creatures. It is run by a vampire who is much, much, older than Christ himself- where all the inhabitants do their part to keep things running and contribute to The Soppranaturale. So, what happens when the very last two Fae cross paths at the hotel? What is The Gauntlet and how does it play into the story. Will Ommily get all the ‘answers’ she’s been searching for? Will Link finally find the ‘cure’ to his loneliness? Is there a future for the all at The Soppranaturale? If you love a well written, light, fun, and interesting paranormal story- then you really should read this book and discover all the fun details for yourself!
Looking forward to more from Ms. Pagano’s incredible imagination!

Thank you, Ms. Pagano!
