Hate You Later (Lit Lovers Series Book 1) by Ciara Blume – Review by Alison Risher

Hate You Later (Lit Lovers, #1)Hate You Later by Ciara Blume
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Although this love story has a classic theme, there are several twists. The main characters are amazing, and the growth they show throughout the novel is phenomenal! The female protagonist learns to ask others for help, rather than always insisting on doing everything by herself or on her own. The male protagonist learns that he is worthy of love without having to do things for people. The pets are a great addition!

What happens in the Caribbean, stays in the Caribbean…

But their ten days of fun are about to spiral into a crazy, messy adventure that risks leaving a few hearts broken along the way – because when Emily bumps into the ship’s hot photographer, Max Keeling, she begins to wish she could rethink their arrangement.

How can she support her best friend at the worst moment in her life while pursuing an out-of-her-league guy in the Caribbean? And can she somehow find a way to have the best of both worlds?

Into the Light (Moon Harbor Series Book 3) by Kate McWilliams – Review by Jess Engel

Into the LightInto the Light by Kate McWilliams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great read! I really enjoyed Ellie and Raf’s story and this story by a new to me author.

This was a quick, easy read. Ellie, the younger sister of Raf’s best friend, is in the midst of great loss but determined and kind and secretly crushing on Raf. Raf wrought with his own demons and feeling as though he brings bad luck to those around him, likes Ellie but is determined to stay away, but can he really?

I enjoyed the character and story development and the story stood on its own well. The author did a wonderful job creating tension within the story, keeping the reader turning the pages. I throughly enjoyed the entirety of this book and recommend it. I can’t wait to catch up on the rest of this series.

Hate You Later (Lit Lovers, #1)Hate You Later by Ciara Blume
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hate You Later is an enemies-to-lovers Rom-Com story by Ciara Blume. Georgia and Hudson clash in person but are strongly attracted to each other. However, when these two chat online as their pets they get along wonderfully. The story reminds me a bit of “You’ve Got Mail”. I really enjoyed this story. There is excellent chemistry between Georgia and Hudson. There are plenty of sweet moments as well as moments that have you laughing out loud. I loved the involvement of their pets in the story. This is a very good read and entertaining read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rafael Marroquin may be quiet, but there is a reason. He does not want to get close to ANYBODY, but he is still helpful if someone needs him. As long as he stays away nobody gets hurt. Ellie Walters is strong and depends on nobody. With her parents gone, she wants to travel her own journey. How will these friends get to the place they want to be? Will there be a romance for them? No Spoilers here! This author is new to me and her book could be read as a standalone. However this one was so good that I must go get book 1 and 2 in this series. This author’s writing is so clear as well as fast paced. I love the characters and even more the strong independent Ellie. Definitely a must read.

You have Dravos who is trying to commute his current sentence. Dravos wants Ravenna, but how since she loves another? I haven’t been able to put this book down. I cannot wait to get more of this series!!

The Victor (The Freemasons #1)The Victor by Nicole Flockton

I went into this story not really knowing much. I didn’t really read the blurb or anything. The story is written in third person. It was pretty fast paced and gave you a good story. The biggest thing I took away from this story is that communication is big in relationships. I could relate to some of the things that happened in both Ava and Cole’s life. There was a section when Ava tells Cole something that was hard from over the months that brought me to shed a couple of tears as if I heard someone say those words to me. By the time I got to the end I was so happy it ended with an HEA but I do wonder about Cole’s friends.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such an amazing book! From the first page about Ellie and Raf’s life to the last page of their journey, I couldn’t put it down. Ellie is tired of being treated like a child by her brother and his overbearing best friend, Rafael. It’s no surprise that it hurts her a little bit more than it should because she is crazy about him and wants nothing more than to be with him in every way possible. What does come as a shock is that Raf wants her just as much but doesn’t believe he’s good enough for her, she’s perfection and Raf’s past makes him believe that she would be much better if they never became anything more than how they come across… Friends but when the passion becomes too much and they finally admit their feelings to each other, skeletons from his closet come back to try to drag them apart. Can their love overcome the normal troubles of a long-forbidden relationship… Can they overcome the extra hurdles thrown their way? Can they outrun the past before it catches them? Absolutely LOVED this book!!

I LOVED this story so much! Honestly I think it’s up there with my favourite reads of 2022 and I love that this is also the first book that I have read by this author. This is one of those books that could so easily be turned into a film – I would happily sit and watch this any day of the week! I loved everything about this book, it was funny, emotional, romantic and so much more. I adored the characters both human and furry!!! The story was so much fun to read, it flowed well and it really was just an absolute pleasure to read.
This was a wonderful read, one I thoroughly enjoyed and could talk about all day and 100% one that I would recommend to other readers looking for a lovely light-hearted read with wonderful characters!

Yes!! What I thought the last installment was missing this one definitely hit the mark! Not only did it have the budding romance, the crazy woman that wants to prove she can do everything a man can, and some are they going to make it, but it also made it so I read the entirety in the course of an afternoon. Loved it! Honestly, this author knows how to draw you in and leave you hanging on every word. Well done!

Ultimately, I am a sucker for romance novels, especially when the woman is a strong fierce female such as the ones found in this series. I do believe that communication is key and within these pages you’ll find that to be true as well.

I found the authors writing style to be quite immersive, enjoyed the plot and the want to stand out amongst those in her field of work. The ending will put a silly smile on your face too, I am sure. Well worth a read!

Sessrumnir (Antipodes #5)Sessrumnir by T.S. Simons
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is the 5th book in a series and brings the series to conclusion. I enjoyed this book as I did the entire series. I highly recommend reading the other books in order first, before reading this one. There are a lot of characters and would be quite confusing if starting with this book. This book follows Freyja and is told from her point of view, rather than from Cam’s. She wrestles with herself a lot and is struggling with PTSD. She wrestles with not feeling like she’s enough and that resonated soundly with me. I really enjoyed the mystery and danger in this one. I could not figure out who was behind it. The book (and series) was well written and highly enjoyable! You won’t regret reading it!

I enjoyed reading this book. This is a slightly different fantasy story for me but I enjoyed it from beginning to end. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed their attention to details that gave life to the story. A well written story that has connectable, strong characters that pull you into their story. I enjoyed watching their growth as well as the growth of the plot throughout the story. This is a fast paced story that kept me engaged. A great story that you don’t want to miss. I am glad I picked it up and so will you. I highly recommend this book.

My Bronc Riding Cowgirl (My Cowboy Series Book 6)

Rodeos are a big deal in some states, even more important than football and this book definitely shows how big it is for the riders.

Cord has the cowboy charm but that charm isn’t always going to get him what he wants. Tori has a secret that could cause issues in the family.

I really enjoyed this book. The moment Cord and Tori meet face to face is one of many that stood out to me. Oh and the animals!

How this series snuck passed me in the past I will not know, but I look forward to getting caught up. Worth every moment of sleep I will be losing.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A new twist on the billionaire genre. This is the story of Jake and Lauren and it does not disappoint. Jake using an app to find someone who doesn’t care about how rich he is. He does this by using an app that sets up blind dates in complete dark, so you get to know people before you see them.
Using this app he stumbles upon Lauren who happens to work for him.

This book has the slow burn that a lot of romances don’t and it gives you that will they wont they vibe. Its a quick and easy read for those of us who enjoy the romance genre.

I will say the one thing I did not like about this book was that there wasn’t a great deal of character development. And also it was all written in bold print which really made it hard to read for me.

She’s No Cowgirl (My Cowboy Series). Review by Jennifer Ramos

She's No CowgirlShe’s No Cowgirl by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Part of the My Cowboy Series, this story centers around Hunter and Kennedy. Hunter grew up in a ranchers’ family as well as a legendary bull rider for a father but refuses to settle into the life he’s grown to know and instead pave his own way into playing football. On the other hand, as a young girl, Kennedy loved the game of football and was able to play within a boys league and after some disputes was no longer able to play. As she grew older, she paved her own way onto the platform of sports broadcasting, another predominantly male field. A chance meeting of Hunter and Kennedy will bring out warm feelings but could these feelings lead to harmful consequences.
Brooke May establishes such great characters to dominate her stories who are strong willed, focused, driven and in careers that center back to the cowboy way of life. Getting to know these new characters more in depth and seeing where this story takes us into their experiences makes this story such an enjoyable and quick read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story centered around the developing careers and love story of Tori and Cord. Tori, an up and coming bronc rider, following the footsteps of her legenendry father and paving her own way into this competitive and male-dominated scene. Cord, a popular bronc rider traveling across the country to different shows and a popular ladies’ man. Tori is such a determined and focused woman who will not let anything stop her from riding her bronc. But Cord notices her, he is taken aback by her beauty and strong will. Even though she doesn’t give into his charming looks and demeanor, he draws him more into her.
Such a quick, pleasurable read getting to know these characters and being immersed into the world of bronc riding. I truly loved seeing the love connection of a man falling for a strong willed woman. He mentions in his thoughts how her beauty as a tomboy and even dressed without makeup and being who she genuinely is makes it hard for them not to try to pursue her.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is not my normal genre for reading, but the cover looked was intriguing enough to give it a try. I had no idea what to expect from this book, like the saying goes “don’t judge a book by its cover!”. I am glad that I decided to go ahead and indulge into this interesting, entertaining read. The story was short, but was full of adventure, and this is enough to keep you enjoying the story from start to finish. Captain Ravenna is on a mission to rescue her love at any cost, or at least that’s what she thinks she needs to do. This includes teaming up with an untrustworthy alien named Dravos. Dravos is a prisoner that is out on his own mission to find the missing Space Force vessel, searching for freedom. The way their stories connect while searching to accomplish their missions is bound to draw you in. If you are looking for a new sci-fi read with love triangle romance then this is the book to pick up and give a try.

Just brilliant!
I have put off reading this book due to it being the (possible) last book of the series. I have thoroughly enjoyed every book and this just made reading this one a little bit harder. The author has brought the whole series brilliantly together and the imagery draws the reader into a dystopian world that has so many parallels to our own. I loved seeing the characters grow and how the tribe came together to face adversity time and time again. This instalment has heightened emotions as it focuses on the children. I can not recommend this series enough. A keeper.

This is an author that I have enjoyed listening to from the first audible.  This is a series that is entertaining and has steamy characters.   A series you don’t want to miss.  I enjoyed how the narrator was able to pull me into the story.  They used different tones to keep the story engaging and had me coming back for more.   It is an emotional roller coaster story along with twists and turns that left me wondering what would happen next.  I really enjoyed listening to this book and highly recommend it.

I enjoyed reading this romance book. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites. This is the second book in this series and it just keeps getting better and better. I enjoyed how the characters brought the story to life. They pulled me into their story with ease and held my attention to the end. There is great chemistry and growth throughout. A story where love and protection could be blurred together. What happens when those lines are crossed? I really enjoyed how the story had a realistic feel to it and I had no problem picturing myself with the characters. What happens in this story you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book and this author.

We fast forward a few years in this book just when you believe life is a bit peaceful, the children are being attacked…..Cam and Freyja must protect them and work together by doing so. Can Cam and Freyja find a way in order to save the children and loved ones?

This book is so packed with emotion……the author truly just had me right from the beginning up until the end. This book is truly a bittersweet end that was so well written.
