Falling for a Star in the City (Stars in the City Series) by Krysten Lindsay Hager – Review by Cindy Mayberry

Falling for a Star in the City (Stars in the City #2)Falling for a Star in the City by Krysten Lindsay Hager
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Have you ever felt you just didn’t meet your family’s expectations? Well that’s how Paige feels when her acting job is put on hold. Now she is out looking for another job. One her family calls a real job. Then there’s her love life, it’s in shambles as well. But just as things begin to look up, everything she thought she wanted has changed. This story is her journey. The author may be new to me but she soon was added to my list of favorites. Her writing is clear, fast paced and easy to follow. Our teens will love this story as well. The characters are interesting and so very different at the same time. Acting, hockey and music make for a grand romance. I really enjoyed reading this story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another great book by this author. I couldn’t wait to read it, and I’m so glad I did!
Paige wants to be an actor and have a successful relationship with her hopeful rockstar boyfriend. She also doesn’t want to disappoint her grandmother, so she struggles with whether or not to change careers. Can Paige ever have peace and happiness?
I read this book without reading book one in the series. It makes me want to go back and read book one, however, I was able to enjoy this book on its own.
I love the characters in this book! Paige is genuine and likeable. She has real dilemmas. I think anyone who has suffered a close loss can relate to Paige’s indecisiveness as she learns to navigate the world without one of her close friends. I love her remaining group of friends who give real, tough advice instead of blindly following every twist and turn in Paige’s life. I appreciate that there are no graphic sexual scenes and the focus is more on the relationships between Paige and her love interests. I also was very happy with the ending. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Rebirth Part 1 (Planet Amazon Series) by Crystal Dawn – Review by Betsy Melano

The Rebirth: Part One (Planet Amazon #0)The Rebirth: Part One by Crystal Dawn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a book by an author I haven’t read before. It’s a great book based on the lost city of Atlantis and a portal that brings Andrea, to another civilization. Andrea has been planning on opening the portal since she was a child and found an ancient book that explains how the portal works. Although Andrea isn’t sure how she may get back to Earth, she is excited to have made it through the portal. This sci-fi story has danger, romance, and uncertainty. The characters are easy to connect to and world created by the author is amazing.

The Rebirth Part 1, Planet Amazon Series, Crystal Dawn, Review, Itsy Bitsy Book Bits, Sci Fi, Romance by Joanne ellis

The rebirth is a compelling exploration of Planet Amazon, where Andrea Staton has dedicated her career to finding a hidden doorway Earth to the planet Amazon.. The narrative takes us on a journey through the planets and tto deal with the men on this planet, becoming a warrior. It is keeping readers engaged with its rich character development and immersive storytelling.
The protagonist, Andrea, is a well-crafted character whose struggles and triumphs resonate deeply. The author masterfully weaves themes of Science Fiction, Drama and suspense, making the story not only entertaining but also thought-provoking.

The author’s use of world building enhances the reading experience, inviting readers to reflect on the medieval society, that fights with sword and staff, was in place of the advanced society she was hoping for.
However, these minor flaws do not detract from the overall impact of the story.
In conclusion, Rebirth is a must-read for anyone who enjoys Spaceships, romance, ancient technology and male slaves!
This book leaves a lasting impression and prompts readers to ponder its themes long after the last page is turned.

I highly recommend it to and Sc-fi fans!

The Rebirth Part One: Aliens and Royalty is the first part of the Planet Amazon series, written by Crystal Dawn. This was such an interesting and intriguing sci-fi romance with tons of adventure and so much more. A wonderful and original spin on both the Atlantis and the Amazonian Mythologies. I breezed through this book, reading any chance I got because I just had to know how it progressed. Crystal is a new author to me, but one I will be looking out for from now on!

Offsides (Game Time Series Book #3) by Tam DeRudder Jackson – Review by Angela Hayes

Offsides: Game Time SeriesOffsides: Game Time Series by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4 – 4.5 Stars

 

Offsides is the third book in the Game Time Series by Tam DeRudder Jackson. It is a steamy NA sports romance, with angst, drama, emotion, chemistry, sparks, tension, and how love finds a way.
This series revolves around the Wildcats football team, and this time it is Finn McCabe and Chessly Clarke’s turn. Theirs is a bit of an angsty and bumpy ride- as Finn fumbles the play and has to work for a second chance. What happens makes for an angsty read- but with some sweet, tender scenes, some emotion, steam, and just enough fun to keep things very engaging.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Tam DeRudder Jackson!

Hooked: The Merciless Few (The Merciless Few Series) by S Courtney – Review by Jenni Bishop

Hooked: The Merciless FewHooked: The Merciless Few by S Courtney
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed book one Wrecked and jumped straight into this book. Make sure you start at the beginning as the characters are intertwined. With plenty of action these alpha bad boy bikers with big hearts will protect those they love and those who need it no matter the cost.
A lot goes on and the stories follow the Merciless Few MC, its ride or die with second chances, club drama, steamy scenes, some violence, a lot of danger, redemption, overflowing emotions and plenty of heat.
Hooked is a fast-paced raw drama filled story and you are in for a wild ride. It hits you in all the feels so have tissues nearby.
Jett/Fiend is emotionally scarred, a broken man, broken spirit, ejected, and hiding secrets. Can he dig his way out of the blackhole he has imposed upon himself with the love of a good woman and surrounded by his brothers from the club? You will need to read it to find out his story.
I really recommend this for those that like MC romance.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book I read in this series which I enjoyed just as much as the first. I enjoy this author’s ability to pull me into the character’s lives with ease and keep me engaged to the end. This is a well written story about Flend. He has made a lot of mistakes and doesn’t feel that he deserves to be loved. Will he figure out that he is worthy of love and her? I enjoyed his character and what he brought to the story. He is one of my favorites for sure. He has been through alot in which the author did a great job of making me feel for him with their attention to details. The growth of this story is great throughout which makes it easy and entertaining to read. I found this book to be fast paced, hard to put down a story that you don’t want to miss. I look forward to reading more from this series in the future. I highly recommend this book.

Wild King (King Brothers Series) by K.M. Scott – Review by Jenique Bornman

Wild King (King Brothers #2)Wild King by K.M. Scott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wild King by K.M. Scott is a sizzling, emotional rollercoaster that grabs hold of your heart and doesn’t let go. The story of Kellen and Salem is the perfect blend of passion, mystery, and heartbreak. What begins as an anonymous, steamy island fling quickly evolves into something much deeper, with both characters struggling to reconcile their pasts and the undeniable connection they share.

Kellen’s transformation from a carefree bad boy to a man grappling with the possibility of forever is beautifully portrayed, while Salem’s internal battle between love and revenge adds a deliciously tense layer to the narrative. Scott’s writing is captivating, pulling you into the minds and hearts of her characters with ease. The chemistry between Kellen and Salem is electric, making this a romance that’s impossible to put down.

If you’re looking for a book that’s equal parts heat and heart, *Wild King* is a must-read. K.M. Scott has delivered a story that will stay with you long after the final page.

3.5 Stars

 

Hooked is the second book in The Merciless Few series by S. Courtney. It is a heart-wrenching and emotional MC romance with plenty of angst, challenges, drama, chemistry, spice, intriguing characters, MC brotherhood, connection, hope, and the healing power of love.
After reading the first book, Wrecked, I was curious to see where this second book would lead us – and let’s just say you will probably need a box of tissues beside you while reading this story. Ms. Courtney certainly toyed with my emotions with this one.
I also highly recommend reading the first book before starting on this one, as there are interconnected details, recurring characters, and other pertinent details contained there which will help you to more fully appreciate this story.
Looking forward to more of The Merciless Few!
Happy reading…

Thank you, S. Courtney!

I hadn’t read any books by this author before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked this up. I was absolutely blown away by how quickly I was engrossed in this world! I couldn’t put it down and ended up ignoring many (all of) my chores for the entire day. This is the first book in The Casket Girls series and already a favorite of mine. The number of twists and turns in this book were mind-blowing! Just when I thought I had something figured out, the author suddenly made a change that fit perfectly even though I wasn’t expecting it. The characters are amazing. I love it when a book is written in dual points of view as it allows me to experience the characters a little deeper. I am on my way to pick up the second book in the series because I need more from this author. If you enjoy captivating paranormal romances, please don’t pass this up!

Kellan has been being a wild child and nobody can reign him in. His brother is tired of cleaning up behind him and keeping the family name in good standing. Kellan thinks getting away from work will do him good and takes a three day vacation. When he meets Salem on his trip they both agree to one night, no names. One night turned into a few and then came the day they said goodbye, or so they thought. When he is called back to clean up the latest mess he left, a PR fixer is also called. Kellan and Salem thought their fling was over but it seems that was just the start to something more permanent. I enjoyed these first two books and am looking forward to reading about the next brother.

Greer and Theron, our main characters, weren’t meant to fall in love. The circumstances in how or why they met was meant to leave Greer deceased, but Theron had other plans. Greer is facing a marriage to a stranger after being taken from her hometown of Paris against her will. In order to save the friends she has made in the convent, as well as Theron, she makes a deal with Hades himself. Does she succeed in saving her loved ones?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed Falling for a Star in the City, more than I thought I would. The first book was alright, but the characters were too young and immature for my liking. This book started off rough, where the end of every chapter was filled with negative attitude and self- doubt. I was rolling my eyes I thought I was going to hate it. But I ended up really enjoying the story. It was nice seeing Paige mature and find herself. She developed from a striving teenage soap star, questioning her worth and just trying to fit in… and matured into a character that I really enjoyed. She learned to stand up for herself, learn what real friends and real relationships can feel like, and stopped living on social media worried about what everyone else thinks. I look forward to the next book, because the author and characters are getting better as the series goes on. I am not sure I totally agree with the age range; 100% its a YA book, but I don’t know about an 11 year old enjoying this book. Not my 11 year old anyway.

What a gut wrenching story…Hooked is part of The Merciless Few series and I was excited to read Fiend’s story. While this book could be read as a stand-alone, I really highly recommend reading
Wrecked first, as you meet the characters and also this book intertwines the story-line from Wrecked. I love getting to know the characters and I can say Fiend, aka Jett…his story is just raw. The roller-coaster of emotional toll that this story took me on is like no other with drama, secrets, and turmoil. Fiend struggles came on early in life from being his family’s everything to feeling like a total disappointment. One fateful decision takes him on a downward spiral personally while trying to put up a front with his MC Family along with the woman who wants to be his all….Poppy. Will Fiend be able to overcome his personal out of control spiral….definitely read and find out.

This is a great book and I am really hoping to see more from The Merciless Few crew!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Gothic New Orleans. I loved the overall feeling this book had. A.D Brazeau has a way with words and this book does not disappoint. The book is full of darkness, but also small bits of romance, paranormal aspects, as well as greek mythological characters and the fact that it is based on a historical situation, makes it all that better. (the author obviously took creative liberties with the history)

One of the main characters, Greer, is such a strong-willed, and brave young woman. She was not like the other “casket girls”, she did not want to be sent oversea to marry a stranger, she was taken by force. Given no other choice, Greer has decided to make a deal with Hades to help her and her friends, as well as Theron. Does Greer succeed in saving those who are close to her?

Even though there are creative liberties with what is the “truth” about the casket girls, I very much enjoyed this book and the mix of historical information, greek mythology, and the paranormal aspects that have surrounded the casket girls’ stories. I have seen a good bit of New Orleans, including the Old Ursuline Convent, and so it was very easy for me to imagine everything said in the book, which I loved. I absolutely will be reading book 2 and recommend this book to anyone who loves historical, paranormal romance.

Wild King (King Brothers Book 2)

Of all of the King brothers I felt that Kellen was the least understood of them. He’s smart, hard working and dedicated most of the time. But after Theo he went in the complete opposite direction and turned into a jerk we was catch a glimpse of very early in the book.

He ends up having life blow up in his face while he is away on a long weekend and with a woman he meets that intrigues him, which I think scared him.

Salem had no plans to see her mystery island man again once they leave. Life has a funny way of making the unexpected happen.

Kellen takes on a Jekyll and Hyde personality to everyone especially his family, he is the most angry about things in the aftermath. Though angry you could tell there was more there, but I really wanted to smack him a time or twenty.

Marius is the one I’m really looking forward to, he is the most complex of the Kings and I can’t wait.

S Courtney is a romance author whose motto is “Love Worth Dying For” There’s always a little (lot) of bloodshed for the happily ever after/for now. Her love of writing began in middle school after hours writing until bedtime letting her imagination run wild.

With that imagination she has created her paranormal series, the Bound Series with strong but caring Alphas and independent women with big ambitions and a little magic! And a look inside the tough job of reaping souls to the Underworld in Sandman.

She also tapped into the dark world of motorcycle clubs and the secret life of an mercenary with a curiosity.

She looks forward to writing into other tropes, such as even darker romance, mafia, and sweet almost insta-love.

The Rebirth Part 1 is the first book in the Planet Amazon Series. The story follows Andrea Stanton, an Army Colonel from planet Earth. Andrea wakes up on Planet Amazon after going through a doorway from Earth. She is immediately pulled into this new world she has worked hard to find. Andrea soon discovers that life on this planet is much different than life on Earth. She is immediately thrust into a new life as she finds herself drawn to two slaves. Andrea wants to do whatever she can to give these people a better life. This story has a very interesting premise. The world-building is good. There are a lot of action sequences and you get to see the author’s original spin on this world. While the characters seemed likable enough it was difficult to connect to them. I also felt that the story would have benefited from more detail and more show than tell. All and this was a good read. If the Sci-Fi/Romance genre is one you like, then you will enjoy this story.

This is the second book in the King Brothers Series. I enjoyed this first book and was looking forward to meeting the next King Brother and I was not disappointed.
In this book we meet Kellen. He is your typical bad boy, always having a eye for the lady and finding trouble whenever he goes. Wanting to escape his last mistake he takes a 3 day break and while he’s away he meets a stunning woman who is up for some fun, no questions asked or names given. Kellen thinks he’s won the jackpot but how wrong he was when Fate plays her hand.

Salem was captivated by Kellen and she thought if she kept things anonymous then she would keep herself safe. After their few days together she believed that would be the last she would see or hear of him but how wrong she was.
When she is hired to help clean up the reputation or a certain King Brother she finds herself face to face with Kellen all over again.
Now she has a choice does she get her revenge or does she give into the attraction that they shared?
This is a enemies to lovers romance. I loved how different they were but also how Salem was prepared to put Kellen in his place when he needed it. Could Salem be just want this bad boy needs to change his ways?

Kellen was expecting to spend the weekend away from work, and maybe find a woman to spend it with. Salem was enjoying the last days of her own vacay, when Kellen sets his eyes on her. Things seem to be going well, until Kellen ghosts Salem. Things really get interesting when Kellen has to work with a “PR fixer” when a former coworker claims he sexually harassed her. That fixer is Salem. A great, fast read that has you hoping for the happily ever after. I have thoroughly enjoyed the first two books, and cannot wait for the next one!
