Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3) by Elsa Winckler – Review by Julie Johnson

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3)Merry Christmas, Montana by Elsa Winckler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Riley is a single mom trying to get her career back on track after losing everything four years ago. Well, she lost everything except for her adorable son, Dylan. Mitch is part of the Miller clan and he’s always such a sourpuss, or in Dylan’s words, always yelling! When Riley and Mitch meet up at yet another Miller family wedding, Mitch saves Riley from having to dance with the crazy drunk party crasher. There is an electricity from the first touch and, while they both try to deny their feelings at first, they really can’t. Riley is dead set on getting into another relationship but then Dylan starts asking questions.

This was a much more enjoyable book for me than the previous one in this series. It wasn’t horrible and I was probably just having an “off-reading day”. I loved how the story progressed but Dylan is my favorite character in this story!!! Will he get his Christmas wish?

Cruel Love: A College Sports Romance (Hidden Valley Elite #6)Cruel Love: A College Sports Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cruel Love by Isla Vaughn is the sixth book in the Hidden Valley Elite Series. It picks up at the end of Cruel Hate as this is Aspen and Phoenix’s Duet. This enemies-to-lovers story is a page turner you will not want to put down. When an unexpected accident sends all their lives spiraling out of control, will Aspen and Phoenix make it or will their rocky relationship crumble under the pressure. After the accident that could have taken their lives, Phoenix is missing the last five years of memories. Aspen is carrying his baby and unsure how to handle this less guarded and kinder Phoenix. I don’t want to spoil anything but you will absolutely bot put this book down. Isla Vaughn is a weaver of webs and a breaker of hearts. We love you for it. 5 out 5 Stars!

Let me start this with PLEASE CHECK TRIGGER WARNINGS. Your mental health is important! With that said, let’s continue.

You must read Cruel Start and Cruel Hate first! Otherwise, you will be very lost. Did the cliffhanger at the end of Cruel Hate leave you wanting and needing to know what happened because same. Aspen and Phoenix truly are a force to be reckoned with. I love their emotions and chemistry truly meshed so well within these pages. I loved them so much. Isla is definitely on my immediately-read list and I can not wait for the next one.

Cruel Love (Hidden Valley Elite Book 6) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Jessica Stone

Starting this review for anyone who doesn’t already know this is book 6 in this series and if you haven’t read the previous books you will have zero idea what’s going on, so go read them! They are super good, fun, fast, steamy reads.

This is the second part to Phoniex and aspens story and oh goshhhh it was so good. I love how much character development and relationships development takes place in this book, I always get so invested into the characters and I was genuinely worried for a bit that they weren’t going to get their HEA.

With every couples story’s coming to a head, more and more secrets and lies and manipulation within the family comes out and ties all the loose ends together and it has me feral the finish this series.

I think aspen faced some hard choices in this book and was put in some situations that she could have chosen to react to poorly with intention to hurt people like how she was feeling and she didn’t, and that speaks volumes for her character and character development in this story. Phoniex’s accident is heartbreaking, but honestly the best thing that could have happened to his character because it offer a sort of reset and ability for this book to head in a direction that you didn’t think it would reach in the first half of aspen and Phoniex’s duet.

All and all I’m thoroughly impressed with this series, the author has done a wonderful job of bringing everything together and leaving nothing behind to be forgotten in previous books. The characters are all real relatable people going through everyday challenges and situations facing their futures just we all have. I’m beyond excited for Shane’s Duet, this author loves her cliffhangers and I’m all aboard the Shane train to find out who/what his duet has in store for us readers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author has created a yet another fantastic historical romance story. I loved this book from the moment I started reading. I connected so easily with the characters and wanted to know more about them. I wasn’t quite expecting the ghost element of the story (my own fault for not reading the description!) but, surprisingly, it only added to the overall story.
I have enjoyed each book I have read by this author so far and I think this one has to be my favourite. The characters are brilliant and I loved watching their relationship develop. The book was so clearly written that I could picture everything with ease. This was a well written and great story. I am already looking forward to the next book that I read by this author.

This book is an emotional and beautiful story that really tugs at your heartstrings. The author has done an amazing job of portraying loss and grief and the conflicting emotions this can bring with it. And through all of this, the connection between the characters really stood out. It was strong and consistent and really added another layer to the story.
I was pulled into this story right from the start and couldn’t put it down until I had finished reading it. I wanted to see how everything would play out and what would happen to the characters. I became really invested in them and their journey. I definitely shed tears reading this book and it entirely worth it. I would highly recommend this book, it is fantastic.

This is a series that I have enjoyed reading from the first book. This is the eighth book in this series which just keeps getting better and better with each book. I enjoy this author’s writing style that makes her characters pop and bring the story to life. I highly suggest reading the previous books in this series to help with your enjoyment of this series and this author’s skills. This is a well written story that is full of romance, suspense and steamy vampires. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into their world with ease. They not only kept my attention throughout but made the story easy to read. They are connectable, relatable and highlight the story. This is a fast paced story that has not only great growth of the plot but great chemistry with the characters. I really enjoyed reading this book. I highly recommend this book.

I’m in love with Cahki and Sung-jin! Cahki is a wild woman from Northern lands filled with ice and snow. She has been captured by slavers to be the emperor’s concubine. Sung-jin is the son of a tyrant emperor. With the proposal of getting married being Cahki’s only option of escape and Sung-jin’s desperate attempt to overthrow his father with an unlikely ally. The growth between these two characters really makes the House of Blood and Whispers worth reading! So many good surprises in store! Natalina Reis is an amazing author with her details and suspense perfectly hitting chapter after chapter. I am anxiously awaiting the next book, House of Blood and Pirates.

Wolfbane (Wolfbane Series Book 1) by Celia Hart – Review by Jenni Bishop

Wolfbane (Wolfbane #1)Wolfbane by Celia Hart
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Wolfbane is a paranormal romance novel and the first book in the Wolfbane series. I have not read anything by this author before and was unsure what I was going to get. Even though the book is 500 pages the plot itself is fast paced and the story flows well.
With true fated mates, werewolf lore, conservative religious beliefs, dupery and second chances this book has it all. There is also betrayal, lies, secrets, drama, angst, hurt, pain, hope, love and some violence.
Wolfbane is a story of a Love Square or Love Rectangle involving four people. Pitting friends against each other. What a twisted tale Celia has given us.
I got to say my heart and my head are all over the place with this one. Frustrated beyond belief with some of the characters and I wanted to slap the heck out of them or bodily harm. It didn’t grip me like I hoped it would and I think that is because of some of the characters.
Blake the future alpha had it all, but it was taken from him. Then he meets her, and things become quite a mess. I really liked him as a character and my heart went out to him.
Jasmine is the rule follower but when the future alpha catches her attention then all bets could be off. Or are they? Feelings for Blake, betrayed by her mate and best friend she doesn’t know what to do.
Luke loves his mate’s best friend and is being led around by his d*ck. The indecisive nitwit. I wanted to knock some sense into him.
Lucy is a selfish duplicitous b*atch! She knew what happens when you meet your mate, but she is a sh*tty person, stamps her foot like a two-year-old and has a temper tantrum. Then she does the unthinkable. I absolutely hated her.
I am surprised I didn’t break my tablet in frustration. I guess these intense feelings just go to show how well written Celia made them. The story is told through multiple POV which is my favourite way of storytelling and great because you get to know who the characters are.
The story flowed well until the ending where it felt a little rushed and abrupt in its ending. I will be reading the next because I have to know how it all turns out in the end.
Just because this is how I felt reading this book does not mean that everyone feels the same so give it a go and make your own decisions.

Master SardiniaMaster Sardinia by Sylvia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Master Campania is the seventh explosive book in the EPIC Masters of the Consulate series by Sylvia. It is an age-gap enemies to lovers’ trope. Hands down the dark and delicious Masters of the Consulate is one of my all-time favourite series. I was so excited to see another book out.
It’s easy to become immersed in Sylvia’s magical world of fated mates where old-world the alpha vampire mafia reside. I cannot get enough of these men in this dark paranormal romance tales. Make sure you read them all in order because there is so much that you will be missing out on.
I feel like I keep repeating myself in my reviews of this series but there are only so many ways you can keep saying just how amazing this series is.
I was once again instantly lost in the story. Lost to this harsh yet beautiful world. Sylvia’s characterisation is done very well, and world building is vividly imagined through her wonderful narrative.
The story is fast paced, intense, full of suspense and steaming hot.
Master Sardinia is dangerous; he is darkness, he is all power, he is pure arrogance and sizzling sex appeal, and he fights for what is his. What a man!

As always, I look forward to more from this bestselling author. You go girl.

Liar, Liar: The McIntire County Series: #4Liar, Liar: The McIntire County Series: #4 by Winter Austin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The McIntire County Series is an amazing book series that continues from the first book to the fourth book, with each book building upon the characters who each have a new case to solve. I love a good suspenseful story, and this one did not disappoint me in any way at all. I loved that we finally read about the Sheriff, Shane Hamilton, and understand why he acts the way he does throughout this series. You get this feeling that something is weighing on his mind and body, but it never even hints at what could possibly be on his mind. I loved that Liza Bartholomew gets to rejoin the story line, not only as an FBI agent, but also as a love interest for Shane, who has kept his heart locked up ever since the horrible tragedy that struck his life many years prior. What an amazing read this was, it holds you captivated throughout the entire story, with never a dull moment. You see so many unexpected twists and turns and fear for the safety of your favorite characters. Winter Austin is one of my favorite authors for writing thrilling suspense series, I even got my teenage son hooked on her books. I cannot wait to see what else she has available to read, as well as looking forward to more books yet to come. You will not want to miss reading this hit book series.

What a fun and captivating romantic fantasy! I absolutely loved Cahki and found her spirit to be entrancing and motivational! Her quips and relationship with the prince was as enjoyable as it was frustrating ( in the best way) to see! It had me completely in my emotions! Ms. Reis’s world building was so clear and vivid it was so easy for me to picture every detail! I will definitely be looking for more books by this author in the future! Especially the prequel coming out for this book that I am so excited to get my hands on, House of Blood and Pirates!

Hot Flashes and Hockey Slashes (Hot Flash Hookups Book 1) by Marika Ray and Sylvie Stewart
Genre – Romantic Comedy
Page Count – 275
Cover Designer – Sylvie Stewart

He’s a hot, shirtless hockey player…and he’s my fake date for my ex-husband’s wedding. Talk about a hot flash to beat all hot flashes.

The wedding bells are ringing and my ex-husband is the groom! When my grown kids hook me up with a fake date to my ex-hubby’s tropical island nuptials, I expect sun, sand, and plenty of fruity cocktails—not steamy nights with a shirtless pro hockey player!

Roman might be all swagger on the ice, but this growly, egotistical male model of perfection has a soft side too. While I battle dresses made for twenty-somethings, awkward run-ins with my ex, and unwelcome hot flashes, Roman is there to distract me with flirty compliments, stay up late with me when I can’t sleep, and make me feel vibrant and ageless.

As good as it feels, none of this is real, and Roman is way out of my league. Who’s going to believe this gorgeous, famous, muscle-bound athlete would ever date a scatterbrained, hot-flashing, insomniac nerd with twenty stubborn extra pounds around the middle?

But as the big day approaches, we grow closer. Wedding activities lead to beach walks at sunset, and his oh-so-talented fingers twist my hormones up in a whole new way. Gazing into Roman’s eyes, I start to wonder if he could be my shot at a real happily ever after.

That’s the thing about vacations, though; at some point, you need to return to reality. 

Hot Flashes and Hockey Slashes is a single dad pro hockey romance with plenty of spice and a game-winning HEA. It’s the first book in the Hot Flash Hookups series, and can be read as a standalone.

Tropes:

      growly alpha hero 

      menopausal woman at her ex husband’s wedding

      slow burn 

    one bed

pro hockey

      forced proximity/fake wedding date

      single dad

Saint Con by Seelie Kay – Review by Angela Hayes

Saint ConSaint Con by Seelie Kay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Saint Con by Seelie Kay is an engrossing mystery- a bit of a romantic suspense intermingled with tension, danger, chemistry, intrigue, angst, emotion, humour, banter, and dramatic developments.
It is a short story, which makes for a very quick and easy read. I’m not sure what I was really expecting from this, as Ms. Kay loves to mix things up and always manages to surprise me- in a good way. After the first couple of chapters I thought I was in for a bit of a romcom- but then things took an unexpected turn where Ms. Kay twisted things up a bit and added a mystery/suspense angle too. She turned what I thought would be a simple, albeit enjoyable romcom, into quite a clever, complex, multi-faceted storyline- packing a lot into a small package. In true Seelie Kay fashion, it is immersive and impactful!
I really enjoyed this clever suspense. But it was the characters who stole the show for me. I really loved the characters, I enjoyed their chemistry, personalities, funny banter, quips, and antics. It made them more realistic and quite endearing.
Well worth the read!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Seelie Kay!

This book takes us on the case of a missing girl and trying to figure out who has been taken her. Jolie Murdoch is a new Deputy on the force who is trying to locate her. She stumbles upon the girls father, deceased, and already has a prime suspect. Xavier Hartmann, an ex Marine that got injured by an IED, is the local bartener and the prime suspect in question, but he doesn’t remember anything. Did he do it? While Jolie works the case the true culprit is out there trying to hinder the investigation and keep Xavier from being a free man. Will she be able to solve the case? I love how the author has brought us something new in each book. As always this can be read as a standalone, but why only read one book in the series? The characters also are wonderful as always and there is always such growth as the story progresses. It has been a great ride so far and now I’m on my way to digging into book number four.

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3)Merry Christmas, Montana by Elsa Winckler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Merry Christmas, Montana is the third (and final?) book in The Millers of Marietta series by Elsa Winckler. It is a Christmas romance with a small-town setting, emotion, family, chemistry, spice, a special Christmas wish, heartwarming/feelgood scenes, and finding love unexpectedly.
Even though this is the third book in the series, it can be read as a standalone if you want. Each instalment in the series focuses on one of the Miller siblings who have moved to small town Marietta for the new beginnings that offers. This time we get Mitch Millers story and get a front row seat to fate bringing him his perfect match in the form of single mother, Riley O’Sullivan- although, they might not realise that they are meant to be, at the time. This is another Miller-O’Sullivan match that has proven to be a winning recipe in the previous two books.
The characters are wonderful, fully developed individuals with their own unique personalities, quirks and flaws- but who are also quite endearing. The characters continue to develop and grow over the course of the story too, so who they ‘are’ at the beginning of the book evolves as the story unfolds. The story itself maybe a little on the cliché side- but one I was happy to let charm me with all the sweet, heartfelt, and romantic developments. Ms. Winckler kept things from getting too ‘cheesy’ by sprinkling in enough drama and emotion to keep things interesting. Add in a cute little boy with a special Christmas wish- and the story takes a charming, and endearing turn.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Elsa Winckler!

FBI agent Liza Bartholomew is back in Eider, Iowa after tracking a scam artist there. She has been tracking this man for years and may finally have him cornered. The town Sheriff, Shane Hamilton, is dealing with a couple homicides and a bunch of arsons. Although he at first stops Liza at every turn it soon gets discovered that their cases may be connected and forces them to work in close proximity. Will they be able to get along well enough to stop the perpetrator? The McIntire County Series has been fun to read. It was a a four book series, and this being book four it looks like the end of the line unfortunately. It is sad the series is over (for now) but I do hope there will be others. This book can be read as a standalone, however as some of the characters are recurring I do highly suggest reading this series from the beginning. I’m sure you will come to enjoy the series just as much as I did.

Tracker (The Talisman Series) by Tam DeRudder Jackson – Review by Santana Hicks

Tracker (The Talisman Series)Tracker by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from ‘The Talisman Series’ so naturally when I found out there was a prequel, I could not wait to read it. In the first book of the series, you are introduced to the Sheridan brothers. Since Riley was already mated, you didn’t hear much about him or his love. This book focuses on him.

Riley and Lynnette meet at a party and are instantly attracted to each other, luck would have it that they are each other’s fated mates. Being the first Sheridan brother mated, Morgan wants to stop the bonding process and sends her forces to take Riley. It is up to Lynnette to save him but she doesn’t even know what her talisman powers are yet.

I really enjoyed reading about the youngest brother but honestly he was not what I expected. He was very cocky and full of himself. Nothing like his brothers. I wasn’t a big fan of his attitude. I was a fan of Lynnette though. She had a good head on her shoulders and calmed Riley down quite nicely. She was a caring, smart, sweet girl with some fire within her. They seem to be the perfect couple. This book is a lot shorter than the other books and doesn’t have a lot of Celtic lore but it is a great introduction to the series.
