Deja Vu, nightmares and recalled past times all link together.<br />A complete amalgamation of the supernatural meld into this story to keep you on your toes.<br />Vampires, Goddesses, Druids, Healers, Watchers, and reincarnation all come together. There is suspense, romance, angst, friendship, memories and magic.<br />Touching on Italian, Cajun and Creole, Latin and Gaelic the use of words is inspiring.<br />Definitely a 5* read.<br />

House of Arsceneaux (Servants of Morrigan: Immortal Creatures) by Caterina Novelliere

House of Arsceneaux is part of the Servants of Morrigan: Immortal Creatures Series. This is a fast paced Paranormal Romance that is packed with secrets, lies, magic , vampires, time travel and so much more. Things aren’t always as they seem. This is a new author to me and I’m definitely going to be looking into what other books they have written. Their style of writing and attention to detail along with creative, yet strong developed characters make for a wonderful story. The characters bring the story to life and you feel as if you are right there with them. Can they have a happy ever after? Does destiny have something else in store for them? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Well I am in heaven. My favorite genre is Paranormal romance and this book really hit the spot. I love vampire romances and to add more supernatural beings into the mix has really made this a great book for me. I love how there is the lost love second chance vibe to this book I really could not put this book down. The author has a great way of bringing the characters to life. I really felt as though I was there in the thick of all the drama occurring around them. I really look forward to reading more from this author and series.

A Toast for Laurent (Vine Valley, #1): A Small Town Fake Relationship RomanceA Toast for Laurent (Vine Valley, #1): A Small Town Fake Relationship Romance by Theresa Paolo
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Toast for Laurent is the first book in the Vine Valley series by Theresa Paolo. It is about small town second chance romance with twists, turns, friendships, romance and possible love. Of course, everyone knows that a love story needs some intrigue and drama…and Theresa Paolo didn’t disappoint in bringing that aspect into the story.
We are introduced to Laurent and Phoebe, and the story takes us back to twenty years ago when they made a promise to marry each other if they were both still single when they reached forty. Unfortunately, Laurent finds himself heartbroken after a spicy night with Phoebe, and she disappears without a word! Even though Laurent is heartbroken, life goes on and he finds himself tending to the family grapevine and doesn’t think about love, then after all those years Phoebe is back! Phoebe has the intent on seeing her and Laurent’s pact through, but what does Laurent think of the plan, especially after the pain she caused. What happens next makes for a fun read that is hard to put down! I’m a sucker for a good book with love and drama! Theresa Paolo did a good job of making sure that you knew the backstory as well as what was currently going on, I didn’t feel like details were left out, she did a great job!
This book is the first in a new series, so I will definitely be reading each new instalment as they release. Looking forward to A Thirst for Franc (Book #2).
Happy Reading!

Twisted Eros (Modern Mythica Book 1) by Aria Skylar – Review by Paloma Fierro 27/06/2023

/0 Comments/in /by

Erik is Aphordite’s son, and her personal weapon to use when someone or something does not go according to her ideal. In a corporate world, if a woman wants to hold and keep her power, she must use the guns of information at her own discretion. 

 

Kay inherited actions from her mothers company, just as her 2 sisters: Grace and Clio. Even when Kay is the younger of the trio she was responsible for making everything work, so that leaves her without a life of her own. Having to develop fully into the role of a CEO and director board Kay lacks the social basic skills to meet and keep a steady romantic partner.

 

Kay’s sisters saw this, decided to give her a month of a special treat of vacation, little does Kay know how her destiny is about to change.Twisted Eros (Modern Mythica Book 1) by Aria Skylar – Review by

My Goodbye Girl by Anna Gomez – Review by Maisie Dickinson

My Goodbye GirlMy Goodbye Girl by Anna Gomez
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The story follows Tessa, an impulsive author with commitment issues who meets Simon, a super-organised scientist who is eager to settle down. They’re both attracted to each other and decide to meet up every now and then in various places around the world until they inevitably fall for each other and each has to decide whether the other is worth giving up what they thought they always wanted. I liked this concept, but I didn’t get attached to the characters until halfway through the book. Neither of them seemed likeable at first, their relationship seemed awkward, it seemed to be purely about sex until the halfway point. At that point, you can see that they truly care for each other and are willing to sacrifice to make the relationship work. Of course, this is when everything changes. I was gripped when reading the second half, finding myself emotionally attached to the characters and not just Tessa and Simon, but Jacob, Riley, Liam, and Will, too. I recommend this book because whilst I didn’t get too attached to the romance aspect of this book – which is probably for personal reasons, and so a lot of readers will probably not agree with my opinion – the grief aspect had me in tears, and I could not put it down once I got to part two. I even cried through the acknowledgements. I also have to commend Anna’s ability to switch from past to present tense, and her portrayal of grief. I would love to read more about Riley and Jacob’s story. “Unfortunately, time is temporary. It passes. You have to live with what you have here and now. Contentment, acceptance—these things are hard to come by. But if you spend your life living in the past, you’ll never be able to truly appreciate the present.

Twisted Eros (Modern Mythica Book 1)Twisted Eros by Aria Skylar
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. It was a unique read to me. I haven’t read a book like this before. The author does an amazing job with the characters and their growth during the story. Erik and Kay both grow and evolve in different ways but in a beautiful way that brings them closer.

I don’t want to give to many details because I can’t want to spoil the story. It is a story about passion, learning to embrace the person you are. It is a dom/submissive relationship but what I loved is that its fluid and it is when Kay becomes the dominant force that really allows Erik to be free.
There is so many twists and turns in this book that you wont see them coming and you will be constantly gripped.
What happens when your abduction vacation turns into you falling for the kidnapper? What happens when the time you spent free and embracing your true sexual self ends up destroying everything you’ve worked for? What happens when you realise who the kidnapper is? And is there any chance of forgiveness for this couple.

I absolutely loved House of Arsceneaux by Caterina Novelliere! The characters were wonderful, the storyline was unpredictable and I could not put it down! Just when I thought I had it figured out, I glanced at the number of pages left and was super curious what major event was going to happen. The fantasy world was intriguing but also believable. Looking forward to reading more of her works! You will definitely enjoy this book- 10/10 recommend!

Sacrifice Bunt (Ground Rule Book 2)Sacrifice Bunt by Bree Kraemer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book 2 Ground Rules Series, it can be read as a stand-alone but it’s nice to have the other story. I loved Noah and Zara’s story. Zara is a confident career driven woman. As a sports agent she has a rule to never get involved with a man that plays sports. Noah, an all star sports player, who’s been in love with her since that night he rescued her from a fire. Their chemistry is strong, neither can deny it. Once they finally reconnect, sparks fly! Watching them learn to understand each other and themselves is was wonderful. I’m very excited for the next story in this series.

Grand Slam (Ground Rule Book 3)Grand Slam by Bree Kraemer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

4.5 Stars

 

Grand Slam is the third book in the Ground Rule Series by Bree Kraemer. This is a sublime contemporary sports romance with a bit of an opposites attract element, drama, angst, chemistry, and emotion.
As expected, this story made my heart feel every detail- experiencing every high and low right beside the characters as the story unfolded. Ms. Kraemer has a talent for heartfelt stories- and always manages to pack a lot of heart and soul into her books. While also crafting endearing characters you feel you ‘know’ and want to hang out with- even if they frustrate the death out of you from time to time.
This is the third book in the series, but it can be read as a standalone. But having said that, I highly recommend reading the other books in the series as well because they are equally as good. I’m not sure if this third book is the final in the series, as there is no mention of a fourth book (yet). But I sure hope there is more coming…
Happy reading.

Thank you, Bree Kraemer!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Twisted Eros is the first book in the Modern Mythica series and debut novel by Aria Skylar. This is a retelling of the Eros and Psyche myth with a modern twist, some darker elements, plots, agendas, chemistry, sizzle, drama, angst, family, and more.
Kay’s life revolves around business. She has no time for anything else. Her sisters practically force her to take some much-needed time off, suggesting an ‘abduction’ experience for some no-strings fun. But with the abduction comes plenty of unexpected twists for Kay- and things soon take a bit of a kinky, dramatic, and intriguing turn.
I enjoyed reading the start to this new series which looks set to be both fun, and a little twisted. Looking forward to ‘Seducing Dionysus” (Book #2).
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Aria Skylar!

Grand Slam (Ground Rule Book 3)Grand Slam by Bree Kraemer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 3 of this series, and can be read as a standalone, though I don’t know why you’d want to!

Heath Bailey is a professional baseball player who first meets Grace Dyer while helping his friend and business manager, Zara, with a bachelor auction to benefit the animal shelter that Grace runs. At first, both Grace and Heath think that they hate the other person. Heath doesn’t like Grace because she’s bossy and he feels like she treats him like he’s stupid. She hates him because he is rich and she is afraid that he will look down on her. When Heath’s sister unexpectedly goes into labor on the weekend of her baby shower, it leaves Heath and Grace unexpectedly alone in her house, where both start to question their feelings for one another. When Heath adopts a dog from the shelter Grace runs, and unexpectedly rescues Grace from a set up for a date with a friend of her brothers (that she wants no part of) by pretending to be her boyfriend for a family dinner, the pair start to spend time together and sparks fly, despite Grace trying her hardest not to let that happen. There is plenty of steamy scenes, lots of heart and even a sweet dog (or more), and a guaranteed happily ever after.

Deception (Central Florida Stories, #1)Deception by Victoria Saccenti
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Joe has just come back from a tour which devastated him and his teammates, when IED exploded all, he can see is his friend running toward the bomb to save them but also stop the depression with that fateful letter, Joe’s world is turned upside down.

Now, moved back home and running his families Landscaping business Joe leads a solitary life but when his colleague invites to the local pub, Joe is fed up of being on his own and decides to join him but when he meets the woman who ruined his friend and cause the devastation with made him take his own life, a plan of revenge creeps into Joe’s mind and Hunter becomes the hunted.

Hunter is lost in life, not quite sure where she is going but has the goal to get her son moved from her mother’s clutches to be with her. Although she is not one for relationships, the love them until they want more then she dismisses them and moves on, but when the tall, dark and Alpha walks into the bar her insides call to her to get to know this man, but when she finally gets to be with Joe will she be able to be the submissive woman he requires and needs.

This is the first story I have read by this author, and I enjoyed the book thoroughly, although at the beginning I found it tough to get into once over the initial couple of chapters it was intriguing and flowed well. I loved the character of Hunter, she was sassy and thought she knew who she was, although when Joe started introducing her to certain ways and behaviours her whole mind set needed to change and understood the need to be with Joe.

I always love a good, flawed character and Joe is another one to add to my pile, with his alpha male tendencies and the pure dominance he was great to read as a character. The relationship was lovely to watch as a slow burn and knowing the true reason at the beginning for the relationship was interesting to see the whole love blossom in the end. The ending of the story was brilliant, and I am glad they got there happy ending.

Can’t wait to read the next story and see the sexy Master Kurt’s story.

Arley has not had the best life so far, when that fateful night happened with her brother, she did not know how she was going to survive it literally but over time her body healed but not her heart, but when night she is kidnapped realising that this is not just a abduction but human trafficking she need to escape and get her life back.

Although escaping the nightmare, Arley may hold the key to stopping the cartel so she is moved to Orlando to hide, until one day she sees someone from her past who she thought had long gone or had forgotten her, but can she put him in danger or throw caution to the wind and let him in her world.

Kurt has always had a soft spot for Arley, as a kid in the neighbourhood he knew what was going on in the house of his best friend but with college Arley’s brother and Kurt drifted further apart until one night he did not recognise the man who just beat up his sister to an inch of her life. Losing track after all these year’s he is surprised to see her in his club. Since coming back from Afghanistan, he is not really interest in the lifestyle but when he sees her behind the bar, he starts to have feelings and wants her to be his. So, when she is in danger can he protect her at any costs.

I loved this story; Kurt had been so tempting in the first book and was glad to get to read his story. They had both suffered so much and just wanted there happy ending and I am so glad it came together in the end. Arley was a brilliant character to match with Kurt and reading their relationship and chemistry blossom and grow was wonderful and brilliant to read.

There are triggers within the story which some people may find hard to read but I feel this shows the strength of character that Arley was and that she needed a strong Alpha to care for her although she rebelled against it at every turn in the end it was a lovely relationship to discover.
I can’t wait to read the next story and see which sexy Dom this relates to.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a fascinating story. I was totally pulled in from the start. To see a controlling personality taking down a few pegs in a romance is quite interesting. To also see a retelling of the infamous Eros myth was different. This was a story that will grab you in because there are three main characters involved. He, she and Mom. That’s quite the difference in a romance. It was a new one for me. I found it different. The verdict is still out but the story was exciting and quite challenging. As a romance, I couldn’t put it down. It’s a must read for me. This was a fascinating story. I was totally pulled in from the start.

This was a sweet, steamy romance that will melt your heart. Baseball, animals, babies, and a true love…who can want more. These two sparked at the bachelor auction and tried to avoid it. They tried to push each other away but not happening. I enjoyed watching this relationship develop as Grace came with a lot of baggage that she had to work out. As she came to realize that she is a strong woman, the story became so much better. With Zara involved as your friend, you know it’s going to happen. Heath brings goodness to the story. Another wonderful installment to the series. A quick, entertaining read.

Brutal Nights (Hidden Valley Elite #4)Brutal Nights by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Damon and Sky’s drama continues.. you definitely need to at the very least read Brutal Days prior to reading Brutal Nights because Brutal Days ends on a cliff hanger that is continued into Brutal Nights. The drama does not cease in this novel. The love that Sky holds for her best friend (or ex-best friend) is amazing, even through the thick of the argument they are in.

I cannot recommend this series enough to anyone who is a fan of romance that has an actual plot line. These are also very short, easy reads. They take me an hour or two maximum for each novel. So you end up with a great book series that helps you reach your reading goal for the year more quickly!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

t should be said straight up that while this is book 2 if you haven’t read the first don’t worry as this can be absolutely be read as a standalone without issue. Arely and Kurt knew each other when they were younger but when they meet again as adults their connection is as the title suggests Undeniable. No path in life is ever smooth of course. She is on the run from the mob and his PTSD is seeing him barely going through the motions of life. This very talented author weaves a storyline for us readers that sees steamy moments, great characters and story twists weaved together to keep us all captivated and thoroughly entertained.

This is an author whose writing I enjoy but I have to admit for a while I wasn’t sure of my feelings towards this book. I am very glad I kept reading though as I did enjoy it and I do absolutely recommend everyone reads it. I guess my slow connection with the book came from the lead characters. I really wasn’t sure about them but as good writing often does as the storyline developed so did my understanding of the characters and I was definitely won over. It is a great series start and I truly look forward to reading more

Heath Bailey has a good life.

He plays professional baseball for a living, his team just recently won the championship, and he has amazing friends and family.

What he doesn’t have is someone he loves.

There is one woman he can’t seem to get off his mind, though.

In an attempt to see her, he decides to get a dog from the shelter she runs.

That one decision changes his whole life.

Grace Dyer met Heath when he was part of an event she planned for the animal shelter. She instantly disliked him. Cocky, arrogant, and unwilling to do the simplest tasks.

Or so she thought.

After seeing him again, she can’t get him off her mind, and she’s not sure she wants to.

Except, she has to. They are from two different worlds, and a relationship would never work. Or could it?

This book was beautifully written as I love to delve into childhood lovers romances like this one. I love how these characters bring a balance to one another that makes your heart pitter-patter. A love as innocent as theirs makes you root for them no matter what the challenges. I’m all for stories like these and their endings. Great build-up and addition to the series!

Ways to Improve Bailey by Cori Cooper – Review by Nicole Thompson

/0 Comments/in /by

“Ways to Improve Bailey” by Cori Cooper is a delightful young adult romance set in Flagstaff, AZ. The dynamic between Bailey and her brother is a constant source of laughter, as he takes his role of looking after her seriously and provides her with a list of ways to improve. Through her encounters with a peculiar guy at the yogurt shop where she works, Bailey learns not to judge a book by its cover and discovers important truths about herself. The characters are lovable, the romance is sweet and clean, and the setting creates a great sense of community.

With its fun and loving characters, “Ways to Improve Bailey” offers an enjoyable reading experience. Bailey’s sassy personality and Tanner’s nerdy charm make for a delightful contrast, while Dayton’s insistence on his list for Bailey’s improvement adds a humorous twist. Although the ending may feel a bit rushed, the overall book remains a cute and easy read that leaves readers with a warm and fuzzy feeling.

Brutal Nights was such a good read. Brutal Days and Brutal Nights are Damon’s books. After that cliffhanger at the end of Brutal Days, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one. Damon seemed like he was the most
Blah out of the 4 guys. After reading this,
Your going to fall
Inlove with him. I honestly didn’t think Damon had it
In him but I totally
Swooned for him.
Parts of this book reminded me so much of
Riley’s story. This definitely had a lot more going on. Gia and Sky were best friends but will they be able to remain best friends when Gia refuses to hear Sky out? Gia and her family have done a lot for Sky and her mom especially when they needed it. Will Gia be there for Sky when it really counts?
Run don’t walk….RUN and get this book today.

Sacrifice Bunt (Ground Rule Book 2)Sacrifice Bunt by Bree Kraemer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series. Each book can be read as a standalone but honestly both books so far have been really good so I recommend both!

Zara doesn’t do relationships. She has her career and her no strings attached approach to “relationships”. Noah poses an interesting challenge though. That being, he’s been attracted to her since he found her naked on his couch. Zara, however, just needs to convince herself that she can’t stand him and doesn’t want him. Can Noah be patient enough to win her over or will he get the message Zara is trying to send?

I really enjoyed this book. I’m not surprised though because the first one was good too! This book has just the right amount of push and pull between the characters. You quickly get invested in the story and can’t wait to see how it plays out. I highly recommend!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Having not heard of this series before and this being the first book I picked up I didn’t know if I was going to wind up lost somewhere along the way and have to go back and read the first book before finishing this one. Lucky for me these are standalone books that can be read out of order and still understood.

Maria is going through some stuff, after leaving an unhappy marriage she is like a lost soul trying to refind her path in life and with her daughter in tow. She makes the choice to head to her sister’s house for some familial love and comfort only instead of finding her sister there she finds Oz. Her sister is off planning her secret wedding Maria is supposed to be at and Maria just wants a little peace amongst her chaos. Oz, the caretaker of all things including people, offers to go to the wedding with Maria and as the two grow closer Maria decides to finance Oz’s band. Now as the chemistry builds there is just one problem Maria now becomes his boss. Can the two figure out a good balance between work and the budding chemistry between them? Or is this romance doomed before it ever gets off the ground?

I was pulled in by the characters’ story, the drama and challenges faced that really brought these characters to life for me. Now instead of having to go back and read Ms. Lund’s other books to understand this one I will do so by choice because the writing was fantastic and blew my expectations out of the water. I cannot wait to see what other books she has to offer and dive i to more of her amazing writing.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Well I enjoyed this book. And seeing as this is Ladies of the Links 2, this is a series and book 2 in that series. Well I definitely haven’t read book 1, yet. Which tells you I’m going too. It also tells you that you don’t need to read book 1 to read this one. I don’t believe I lost anything. This story was complete from beginning to end.
A second chance romance that involves children. I enjoy second chance romances. However when they involve unknown children, they are a hit or miss with me. This one hit though.
Christy and Ryan were high school sweethearts, till she disappeared. Now she’s back with 5 year old twin girls in tow. I understand it’s a story but it’s not always the easiest story to relate sometimes. I do enjoy how the author approached it. Where he had Ryan step up immediately, no push back or anguish. Which was refreshing because most books like this have both. Including a denial period. That didn’t happen here.
It’s all about navigating life when it’s turned upside down. How one adapts to immediate, but welcome change. Which the author portrays rather well, since it kept me turning the page.
I do thoroughly enjoy sports romances which is what drew me to this book to begin with. And I’m glad I jumped at the chance to read it, it was entertaining and worth it!

This was a cute read! I loved the sibling dynamics in it and the way the focus is on improvement. I think even though this is probably YA it was a good read at any age!

Love and hate in one book. A great thriller and love story ending. I can usually guess who the killer is but this one was different. It kept you guessing until the end. Very good read!

Undeniable
By: Victoria Saccenti

This book is filled with so many twists and turns. It is definitely a thriller that you cannot put down until you finish this book. It features a man who suffers from PTSD following his military background. This book is BDSM themed and some of what that entails definitely needs a trigger warning. But I truly loved this book. The characters are very well written, have fantastic depth and are flawed in many ways. These flaws are what make this a tremendous read. It features characters that are reunited after many many years apart (think childhood). There is so much more to this story than the BDSM which makes it even more wonderful. I definitely recommend picking this series up as I definitely don’t regret it at all and cannot wait to read the next book!
