Jonas Courtland is a playboy and has been since high school. He is the owner of Courtland Hospitality Group. All the man is concerned with is adding more buildings and increasing the number of women he’s been with. When a blast from the past walks into his life, he is not sure what to do about it. Mackenzie Broderick, her dream is to own her own restaurant and nothing more. She was burned by Jonas over a decade ago and would hope she would never have to see him again. She is in a big competition to win a contract to be a chef at a new luxurious hotel. But when her ex walks in, will she emerge victorious in the competition or will the heat in the kitchen be too much to handle?
This book does deal with mental health and issues that we sometimes keep behind locked doors. Please seek help if you are experiencing any kinds of symptoms.
This was a wonderful read and I could not put it down. It only took me a day to read this. The characters were charming and intriguing.

The Lie That BindsThe Lie That Binds by Amy Argent
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Holly is the new kid, having moved to a new city with her father, a sheriff, after the passing of her mother. Like every high school student, she’s dreading going to a new school and is hoping to fit in with the right people.
Nathan is the classic jock – handsome, fit, popular, and a jerk.
When it quickly becomes apparent Holly isn’t going to fit in with the popular crowd, she finds friends that become her tribe. Still slightly intrigued by Nathan, but also recognizing him for the jerk he is, she’s equally drawn to him and disgusted by his behavior. After an incident where he helped embarrass a classmate, she confronts him; then, everything changes. She discovers Nathan has a secret he’s been keeping from nearly everyone around him for the past couple of years.
He panics and waits for the fallout of Holly telling everyone, but when she doesn’t, his brother convinces him he should sweeten her up a bit to make sure she doesn’t change her mind. After holding onto his burden for so long alone, Nathan finds Holly to be a caring confidante, and the two start dating. All’s well until another girl who’s been pining for Nathan for years, outs Nathan’s other secret – that he only started talking to Holly to keep her quiet.
While the overall story was good, and I found the book to be very informative about Nathan’s secret, I wasn’t as impressed with the cliched high school tropes; I also felt like the main characters could have had a bit more depth beyond Nathan’s secret and Holly’s caring (and borderline codependent) nature towards him.

Romance under Aquarius (Stargazing Series Book 1) by Danielle Jacks – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Romance Under AquariusRomance Under Aquarius by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this paranormal romance which was an intriguing mix of romance, drama, adventure and Greek mythology and myths, such as Atlantis, all of which had me hooked. The story is told from multiple points of view, which made me feel engaged with each of the main characters. Kasper, is on a quest to travel the world and swim to the deepest depths, as he has been told that in Greek mythology, there is a water healer under the zodiac sign of Aquarius, who he hopes can heal his dying brother. Maris, has found out her fiancé, the man her father wants her to marry, is cheating on her, and is now unsure whether to go against her father. Maris knows that fighting for her opinion to be heard will not change anything, but maybe running away will.
Meanwhile, her best friend Pasha is living with the knowledge that the man she loves is intended for her friend. She has to decide whether to sacrifice her own happiness for theirs, knowing that a future of following rules will make her miserable. Then there is Ryn, in line to be king, but only if he marries someone he doesn’t love gives up the one he does. He has to decide if making it work is worthwhile, especially as the princess he’s to marry seems to be destined for more than he can offer her, but maybe he could help her. This is an immersive read, with the wonderfully descriptive narrative bringing the setting and the characters vividly to life. It’s an original storyline which flows well and had me gripped from start to finish. An enjoyable and entertaining read, which I definitely recommend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Still hot and reeling from my tango in the precious book I was both sad and excited to start this , sad because I’m not ready to say goodbye yet and ready because I just want a last tease of a Titan man 😉

Jonas is one of those men who is more than comfortable in his own skin and the options of others of him don’t really phase him . While his friends are settling down and finding love he’s more interested in building his empire ! More often than not men like this have loved before and they loved hard and that’s why they hurt hard and then they build an attic cave around their hearts but there’s an ice queen out there that’s the perfect match and will get through all those layers ….

Mackenzie , the preachers daughter lost her heart and paid the price , she need to let go of the baggage and the hurt and resentment and live .

Mackenzie has the chance of a lifetime to realise her dreams but there’s a few hurdles to get over first , the biggest being coming face to face with her past ….

The thing with unresolved history is that it’s like a smouldering fire , the embers can very quickly flare up again , very much like it it did with my people , yes I’ve claimed them as mine , again 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️❣️📕

All I ask is pleas be patient with Jonas there’s more to him than he gives forth and he’s not the douche he gives forth …

Again I loved the characters and got totally absorbed into their drama , love, suspense, mystery , secrets and antics !

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Secrets always have a way of coming out.

Amy Argent is brilliant! This book is very emotionally raw and sad at times. Make sure you have some tissues near you! This book goes to show that even the “toughest” of people have the biggest of struggles.

Nathan, Super popular, super Gorgeous, and a jackass. There’s more to him then just that though. He’s been holding onto a secret for the past two years. Then insert new student… What happens when she sees something she isn’t supposed to? What’s Nathan’s plan? Or what’s his brother’s plan?

Holly is shy, timid, and non-confrontational. Starting a new school is hard, especially when you’re not popular. But she’s taking a stand, heading straight to the popular kids and not taking no for an answer…. BUT it’s high school, easier said then done, right?

What happens when she sees something she isn’t supposed to? Is this something she can use to her advantage to be with the “in crowd”? How will Nathan keep her from telling the whole school his secret?

The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent. This is such a good young adult romance. Its the typical new girl at school not fitting in. Holly is the new girl and of course she doesn’t fit in with the popular kids. Nathan is one of the popular kids but he has a secret and he will do anything to protect that secret. When he and Holly become lab partners not happily I might add, Holly develops a crush on Nathan. Holly is tormented by all the cool kids so Nathan is devastated that he has to be her partner. When she accidentally finds out his secret he will do whatever it takes for her to keep it. They decided to act like they are dating and as they spend more time together Nathan realizes he really likes her. Holly’s brother also helps them with this secret. Remembering how things like this secret could be devastating to a high schooler makes this book seem so real. Will Holly keep Nathan’s secret or will he end up just telling everyone. Really good standalone read! I feel like it could be required reading in high school! Good lesson!

Finding Starlight (Quimby Grove #1)Finding Starlight by Shannon Nikole
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book had twists and turns throughout! The main character, Ellawyn, leaves an abusive relationship and escapes to the quaint small town of Quimby Grove. The small town and town square are written so well, the benches surrounding, the marquee on the theater lit up, the window fronts, it all sounds like such a cute town. Ellawyn is brave and trying to start a new life that she has control over. She finds the bookstore and the man who runs it to be a place to feel comfortable and starts to open up. Benji knows she has a dark past or is running from something, but he takes her in and she becomes part of his family. Benji always has a smile to give and runs Starlight Books by himself. Benji’s grandson, Beckett, returns to town to help run the bookstore and cafe and take care of Benji as his health is dwindling. Ellawyn and Beckett slowly get to know each other and the trust builds into more. Then you get hit with a twist, Ellawyn has a stalker. This book was good and I didn’t want to put it down so I could find out what happened. I do have a few unanswered questions about some of the story but it was still a great read.

The Lie That Binds is a book that could have really happened in the “real world”. The attention to detail is what makes this book interesting. The ability of this author to present her work in such a real way is a treat. It has been a long time since I have read a book that I felt like I was really in the book with the characters. Speaking of the characters, they are fully developed and complicated. This story is told from Nathan’s perspective. He is a “popular boy”. He does not like to close to anyone because they will see the truth about him. Holly does just that. What happens because she does know the truth? I highly recommend this book to find out what happens to Nathan and Holly.

What an amazing story! This took me on a rollercoaster of emotions. I hated, then liked and then felt honored to read this full tale. While reading I was shocked and surprised more than once at what happens, the cast’s reactions and actions. The characters all have wonderful traits that add or detract from the overall book. Some I loved and felt empathy for and others I could do without but realize their necessity for the storyline. I loved the growth that not only the two main personalities had but a lot of the secondary ones too.

This is my first book by this author. I felt it may be a little long at times but the weaving of it is perfect. I became entranced by Holly and Mr Gorgeous as we learned their feelings and secrets (good and bad unfiltered) as they struggle to survive and try to hold their place in high school.

That epilogue was wonderfully done! I loved learning how everything was navigated at the end.

Again the cover-art is just amazing ♥️ I’m even more excited to dive into this book than the previous one ! #truestory#

Anton is the golden boy , he has all his desires , fame , fortune , wealth , career and he’s at the top of his game both in career and life , he really does seem to have it all 🤷‍♀️

Elsa , comes from a wealthy family , blue blood if you like and it seems she’s won the heart of one our very delectable Titan men …

All is not as it seems and every fairytale has a villian or a dark side and our folks are no exception to the rule . Sometimes life has to bring us to our knees , to humble us to make us realise what we have , wake up and smell the roses grab life and love , live and love it , every day is a gift and should be treated as such .

This was a hard read for me and there were a few triggers that one should be aware of . It was a real and real read and I almost don’t want to share their story and all they’ve been through . I cried hard but loved even harder ❣️

Drama, emotion and soul searching
This is the fourth book in the Firehouse 13 series. I have read several books by this author so I was excited to dive in and I was not disappointed. Some parts are highly emotional and the romance isn’t a bed of roses either. Sol takes some getting used to as he is so full of angst and pain. A highly charged read.

What a great book! This is hands down one of the best books I have read this year. The story itself was believable, especially when it came to showing the bullying being done by the popular clique. Nathan has a big secret that he doesn’t want to get out. Nobody in school knows, except for Holly. She only found out by accident and he will do anything to make sure she keeps her mouth shut. How far will he go? Holly has been crushing on Nathan since the first day she saw him in her new school. She wanted to believe that he was one of the jerks after an incident involving her friend, but the more they spend time together the more she sees that he is a good person. When he asks her out she thinks he’s kidding. Why would he want to date her? When feelings get involved and the secret is being threatened, how far is too far in keeping it? Secrets don’t stay hidden for long.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

 

3 Stars

 

The Lie That Binds by Amy Argent is a YA contemporary romance story with a strong emphasis on secrets and lies, high school politics/ pressure/angst/drama, trying to fit in, popular kids vs the unpopular, mean girls, cliques, emotion, fear, baggage, and more. I really wanted to love this book far more than I did. I felt so annoyed at times while reading it, and really wanted to shake the characters out of frustration. I didn’t connect with the characters as well as I would have hoped, and this made it difficult to invest in them and the outcome of the story. There seemed to be (for me) a lot of repetition that pulled me out of the story, then, as well, the flow of the story lagged/dragged in parts. This is not a typical reaction from me to one of Ms. Argents stories, as I loved her other books- so I will definitely be going back to revisit this book in a week or two and see if I still feel the same way, or if, perhaps, I was just having an off day when I read it.

Thank you, Any Argent!

In book two we meet Morgan her good looking boyfriend. Caleb. Things have progressed very quickly between the two much to Morgan’s dismay. Then in comes this ghost who is jealous of Morgan and tries to turn her world upside down! With constant shenanigans, and some heartfelt moments, book 2 takes you along for a ride just like book one did. I suggest grabbing some napkins because there were some parts that pulled my heartstrings and made me feel for our MC. The writing is wonderfully one and takes you into Morgan’s quirky world. I really hope there is a book 3. I want to read more about Morgan and her ghostly friends so much!

The Mastermind is not your typical brother’s best friend romance story. He is also a billionaire and the new boss. The suspense, the intrigue and the mystery are intricately and cleverly woven together to give the reader an intense read. The plot had me eagerly turning the pages waiting to see how it all unfolds. The story has a little bit of everything from danger and deadly secrets, lies and drama, tragedy, angst and let’s not forget the push/pull romance.

Remington Starke is living with a past that has tormented him and has kept him in a dark place. He knows he shouldn’t but she has always been his light but she is off limits. Now he is back and wonders if there could be more.

I look forward to seeing what Nadia gives us next.

This was an emotional 5 star read. You get pulled in right from the beginning. Sol is dealing with the fact that he can’t be a firefighter anymore. He attempts to go to a counselor but that doesn’t go very well. He’s a hero to others but not to himself. He tries to hide his injury when he can.
Sol has been Ember’s mentor and she is determined to show him how important he is. Ember was great for Sol, she helps him heal. I really loved these two. Ember was a determined woman and refused to give up on Sol. We get so much in the read. The author does a great job with her writing and you will be done before you know it. All of the characters were great. This book is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone.

The Lie That Binds is truly and utterly heartbreaking, tragic, loving, and entertaining. This is not the first book I’ve read by this author and it definitely won’t be the last. I loved every single aspect. The romance, the sadness, the humor, the anger, ect all it was written beautifully. It also gave off “Never Been Kissed” vibes.
Have you ever had a secret you were too embarrassed about so you would do anything to hide it? I do currently, but unlike Nathan I haven’t had anyone unknowingly find out. Secrets always come out, it’s at your control if you are the one delivering the secret or a 3rd party. Unfortunately for Nathan he doesn’t handle that too well. He devises a plan with his brother to help keep the secret under wraps, little did he know Holly was going to blow into his life and shake everything up.
Holly, new to her small Oregon town, has a run with a gorgeous popular boy. Unfortunately he’s not a very nice person. After witnessing him have an epileptic seizure, the dynamic between them changes. Started off as friends but it has evolved to more. However there are classmates who don’t approve and will do anything to undermine them. Will they survive?
The growth and the change between these characters together and apart is written so well. I look forward to digging into more books by this author. She definitely has a gift!

Wow!!!

I love how the author has a small saying before each chapter …..about love, lies and truths. This story had me hooked from the first page and it was very hard to put down. I had to know what was coming next….lies upon lies, half truths and trying to fit in. Nathan is a high school boy who has a “secret” that no one knows except for his family. When Holly stumbles and finds out this secret that Nathan has, its takes you on a journey where lies become more and easier to say…but what happens when you fall for the person you lie to but yet the secret.

I can honestly say I get Nathan’s character in many ways….trying to protect himself from being hurt but yet AHHHH….. the downward spiral can lead you to misery and Holly I loved in this book. She was just so caring and understanding and I love the character growth in the book from beginning to end.

Highly recommended book and I loved every page!

Ms. Anise Storm is back again with the fourth book in the Titans of Manhattan series. She again had me on the edge of my seat excited in anticipation on what’s about to happen next. I was not able to put the book down long enough to do anything, I had to read the entire book in one sitting. She has quickly become one of my favorite authors.
Jonas Courtland is a hotel developer; he is one of the most notorious Titans. He’s more than content with his playboy reputation, and after watching various friends fall in love, he has no interest or desire to follow in their footsteps. His focus is on just two things:
– Add more properties to his portfolio
– Add more notches to his bedpost
He allowed himself to care about someone once before, and he has no plans to do it again.
Mackenzie Broderick is a preacher’s daughter, she allowed herself to be deceived by her high school’s biggest playboy and has suffered for it since. Years later, she lands an audition for a life-changing opportunity. To further her career in the culinary world, she only has to:
– Beat out her competition for a restaurant contract
– Not fall victim to her ex-boyfriend’s charms
When playing games, there’s always a winner and a loser, and each is intent on triumphing over the other. Neither is prepared for what comes next when old feelings resurface. Before they can even think about a happily ever after, secrets are revealed and the rules of engagement change. Who will emerge the ultimate victor?
I’m excited to read other books from the author in the near future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I started this story I had not read the previous 2 books and I was worried it would make it hard to follow along with the storyline of this book, but I thought the author did a great job of touching on information from previous books with just enough information I didn’t feel confused, but not so much information that I felt like it would be pointless to check them out. After reading this story, I fully intend to read the first 2 books to see Krystina’s older sisters’ stories. This was such a great book; I loved reading about Krystina and Loukas’s relationship and the history behind her hurt and his guilt. I loved how the author would give the different characters the POV and we got to go back to the past and see her grandmother’s relationship begin with her now missing grandfather. The author did a great job of describing the panic and uncertainty when the pandemic hit and how families and businesses had to navigate through it. Overall it was a great story that made me laugh and cry. I can’t wait to read the first 2 books and the 4th book by the author.

Ms. Storm is back again with the third book in the Titans of Manhattan, and she again did not disappoint. Her style writing is uniquely hers and hers alone. The way she has with her words makes you feel whatever her characters are feeling in the moment. This book is just as amazing as the last 2 books of this series were.
Mason Steele
As one of the city’s most eligible bachelors and owner of the hottest new nightclub in the city, Mason’s fame and fortune were amassed by following two cardinal rules:
Always keep sex casual
Never mix business with pleasure
Following the rules had never been a problem until he hires a new dancer who turns out to be a recent notch on his playboy bedpost. Drawn to her in a way he’d never been to anyone else, will he be able to keep her that way?
Rhyann Ward
After being awarded a ballet scholarship to an exclusive arts school, this Midwestern girl trades one Manhattan for another, moving from Kansas to New York, ready to follow her dreams with two goals in mind:
Maintain her scholarship
Land a spot in a world-wide production
Quickly learning it takes more than passion, Rhyann discovers she also needs money. Convinced by her roommate to pole dance at a local club, she realizes her new boss is none other than the man she’d had a one-night stand with.
Her life begins to unravel when she is pulled into a new and dangerous world. Lust, intrigue, seduction, and temptation have consequences. As the pieces begin to fall apart, his past and her future pull together to create something neither can resist.
I’m excited to see what the next book in the series is like. I look forward the reading more of her books in the near future.

Ms. Anise Storm is back again with the second book to the Titans of Manhattan Series. She has quickly become one of my favorited authors. She had me curled up in my bed with my bed reading this. I had to be far enough away from everyone to read this amazing book.
Anton Kingston was one of Hollywood’s biggest heartthrobs, he has everything he ever imagined. A career, fame, fortune; he is sought after worldwide, and at the height of his stardom. His personal life has also aligned, and he finally has the things he’s wanted for a lifetime.
Elsa Fitzgerald was raised in New York City’s high society, she has landed herself one of the Titans, and things couldn’t be better. Elsa is one of the most successful real estate agents in the entire city, and has the devotion of one of Hollywood’s leading men. All that’s missing is the two things she desires above all else.
Their love story is one for the ages, or so she thought. Just when it seems as if everything she’s ever wanted is within reach, tragedy strikes and threatens to tear it all away. As their fairytale starts to unravel, choices have to be made. There are consequences when chasing perfection. Will they be able to live imperfectly ever after? Or will their choices destroy those dreams forever?

One In A Billion (Pierce Brothers, #3)One In A Billion by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Belinda Williams does it again! One In a Billion is the fun, sweet third book in the Pierce Brothers series. Seth is the private, billionaire Pierce brother and Victoria is an ambitious journalist that does what it takes to land the interview with Seth. This was another hit. Once again enjoyable characters and plot. I very much enjoyed the chemistry between Seth and Victoria. A very fun and romantic book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Our doctors are back and I was so eager to read their story. Book 2 was just as good if not better than book 1.

Morgan has accepted her newfound ability and is now sharing her home with her resident ghosts. Her and Caleb have also began exploring something of a romantic nature although Morgan has doubts about her “Mr. Too Good to Be True.” As things start to finally calm something or “someone” new turns up from the ghostly world and her sights are set on Dr. Cutler’s man. All the turn of events push Morgan and Caleb even closer and have them starting to think about their future as well as things around them.
This book was such a fun read with great strong characters and a storyline that kept you interested. I will be picking up more from this author in the future.

Romance Under AquariusRomance Under Aquarius by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A wonderful story of four young beings who go out on an adventure to save the brother of one of their group. I got hooked into the story fairly quickly and enjoyed the many aspects the author incorporated into the story like mermaids, paranormal beings, and so much more. I’ve always been interested in astrology so it was fitting to begin reading this book. The story kept me interested and I had a hard time putting the book down. I have read a book or two by this author before and this one didn’t disappoint. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Conveniently Yours (Titans Of Manhattan, #1)Conveniently Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Titans od Manhattan series by the author Anise Storm. Conveniently, this is the first book that I have read from this author, and I was not disappointed. The authors style of writing is very unique and interesting. She was able to transport me into her world she was creating and have the power to have her readers feel all of the emotions the characters are experiencing.
Caspian Archer can only accomplish those two paramount tasks that will he secure his inheritance. What he needs is someone willing to agree to an arrangement of convenience and spare him the emotional ties of settling down.
Paisley Fischer was evicted and broke, she didn’t think things could get worse. Then… they did. With her mother in a coma, and the insurance benefits running out, Paisley will soon be strapped with the financial responsibility of her care. She has no idea how she’s going to provide for both of them until a childhood friend comes to her with an unconventional offer.
All she has to do is pretend to be happily married, but a lot can change in 365 days.
I’m excited to see what the author has instore for this series.
