Lingering Spirits (Soul Connection Book 4) by Nikki Lynn Barrett – Review by Dawn Brown

Lingering Spirits (Soul Connection, #4)Lingering Spirits by Nikki Lynn Barrett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Russ has a voice in his head that doesn’t belong there. Hope has telepathy as well as premonitions. She just can’t figure out why she is connected to Russ. She has saved his life several times but when something major goes down, the two must work together to figure out what is going on.
Opinion
I’m a fan of this series. It takes on a different look at paranormal activities. The author definitely has an imaginative mind to be able to twist paranormal activities the way she does. This book is no different with Hope and what she can do for Russ. I think, personally, that telepathy would be an interesting ability to have so this book was intriguing to me.
If you are interested in this book, it can be read alone but makes better sense if you go back and read first three books before reading this one.

Behemoth (Grimm Wolves MC #1)Behemoth by D.M. Earl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So this is a new to me author and sometimes you just never know what to expect. However, this was a hit out of the park book that pulls at the heart strings and suggests that though we can see all our flaws that doesn’t make us unloveable.

Francis has two lives: that as a firefighter and that as a biker known as stitch. If this is all there is to life he feels complete with the families he has chosen because his biological family is anything but a family. That is until he meets Damien who is the only child he has met that is not afraid of his scars and that he senses has some underlying abilities making him similar to Francis. He goes on to meet Grace Sinclair and really starts envisioning the family he could have rather than his lonely current existence. Is it too much to overcome or can they overcome all the obstacles to achieve their happily ever after? This is a must read book if you love romances mixed with intrigue and mystery. This book will tug at your heartstrings and pull you in from the get go!

My Valentine's Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids CoveMy Valentine’s Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids Cove by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was super sweet, and easy to read. Cupid’s Cove is a quaint little town that celebrates Valentine’s Day to the fullest extent possible. While this story is a shorter story it still packs a lot of fun, love, drama, and of course fantastic characters. The author has even thrown in a recipes in between the pages and it really just gives this book its unique edge. While Lara isn’t happy about the new bakery that’s opening she can’t ignore the chemistry between her and Graham. But will they be able to come to an agreement on their businesses or will they each want to be the best bakery in town regardless of how they feel about the other? You’ll have to read this amazing story to find out for yourself.

My Valentine's Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids CoveMy Valentine’s Day Cookie Match: Welcome to Cupids Cove by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It was cute! It was sweet! I really liked it! Those are just things I feel best describe My Valentine’s Day Cookie Match. A sweet romance with a baking twist.
Cookie Match is the next best bakery in town, why you may ask? Well the premise the author introduces is that Graham is tired of “big city corporate America” and is ready to follow his dreams. Of course which is baking, but what if that’s tweaked to coincide with a dating app. Now that’s unique and sure to sell. The app matches people based on their Cookie Match Bakery orders. With it strategically located in Cupid’s Cove, it has success written all over it.
Well not if Lara has anything to say about that. Lara, the mayor’s daughter is outraged and a little self righteous, can’t believe her dad would let this guy storm into town and become the family bakery’s competition. Determined to figure out a way to fight the competition, Lara ends up drawn to Cookie Match Bakery and it’s owner Graham. Lara is barely an adult and one can tell based on how the author wrote her character. Graham 10 years her senior has experienced life and this bakery is his ultimate goal.
Do sparks fly?
Does age become an issue?
If you want a cute romance come check it out, because it’s exactly that!

Doctor in the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, Book 3) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Doctor in the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, #3)Doctor in the Outback by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another enjoyable and engaging novel in the ‘Welcome to Bunya Junction’ series. I was looking forward to returning to Bunya Junction and I was definitely not disappointed. Set in a small town in Australia, the authors descriptive narrative really brings Bunya Junction to life and I could picture the setting, making me feel fully immersed in the story. The storyline focuses on Dr. Scott Carruthers who runs the small town busy hospital at Waratah River. Having also set up a foundation to help others achieve their dreams Scott is far to busy for a relationship. However, when he meets the new specialist obstetrician, Dr. Franceen Lewis the instant attraction he feels is a completion he doesn’t need. Franceen took the job to start her life over after a tragic loss resulted in the end of her marriage, which was an unhappy one.
She just wants to focus on her career and helping others, but she’s not sure how long she can deny the connection she feels towards Scott. Wary of getting involved with another man, Scott continuously proves he’s not like her ex. The more time they spend together both professionally and personally the more their relationship grows but Franceen has trouble putting her past behind her and it may cost her, her future happiness. I loved the main characters as they were both likeable and relatable, and I loved how their relationship developed and grew throughout the story. This heartwarming romance kept me happily turning the pages and I was hoping that Franceen and Scott would get their HEA.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This the third book in the series is more about Scott and the new obstetrician named Franceen. We all know bosses and employees should never be more. But in this case both these beautiful people are forgiven. (By me) Scott has a twin sister who is pregnant with twins herself. As her brother and a Doctor, he has to be the brother first and foremost. Franceen on the other hand is the Doctor who will care for Sissy. Although Scott has his own problems with the pregnancy, as a twin he feels her pain as well as the morning sickness. The author once again has involved me into this series. I love the storyline and the HEA. The characters feel like family and we all want to feel the emotional rollercoaster ride this story brings forth. I will be waiting for the fourth in this series, because, There has to be more!

Divine VintageDivine Vintage by Sandra L. Young
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was so intriguing and imaginative in a way that fascinated me from the first page. Being from South Louisiana, the lore of old mansions and homes has always been a love of mine. Tess loves adventure and used everything she had to open a shop where she sells vintage clothes. While modeling some of her clothes, Tess has visions of the original owner and her murder. When she meets Trey, she discovers he is a descendant of the accused murderer who wants nothing more than to clear his family’s name. Although he is skeptical, Trey agrees to join Tess in trying to use the visions and an old diary to discover the truth behind the murder.

I loved the way this book was written! The transitions between Tess’ world and the memories transitioned beautifully and were so easy to follow. Tess is spunky and up for anything, which has her diving right into the visions. Trey is her opposite and weary, but his pull to Tess has him agreeing to help her. Their connection is enthralling and kept me turning page after page! I loved joining them on the journey to discover the real story behind the murder connected to Tess’ magical dress.

Behemoth (Grimm Wolves MC #1)Behemoth by D.M. Earl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book 1 in the Grimm Wolves series and wow what a story. This is a MC romance but what I loved about it is that the main character Francis although a biker is also a soft gentle soul. His character is so vulnerable that you can’t help but fall in love with him.

Francis has had a very hard childhood and wears his scars on his body as proof. He is closed off from everyone preferring to be alone. He also has a talent for reading peoples minds. This and the way his looks has lead him to close off. After all who could love a monster.
He spends his days working as a firefighter and is also a member of the Grimm Wolves MC. He never imagined a run in with a beautiful woman could unravel him and make his once sad life filled with happiness again. However things aren’t that simple.

Grace is a single mum raising her gifted son Damien. Damien’s father is in prison. After her relationship with Damien’s father which was brutal and abusive Grace wants nothing to do with any MC’s until she meets Francis.
Can Francis show her that not all MC’s are the same? Can Grace learn to trust this man who swears to love and protect her? And what will be the fall out between the two MC’s when Francis dates another guys ‘old lady’?

Doctor in the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, Book 3) by Nicole Flockton – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

Doctor in the Outback (Welcome to Bunya Junction, #3)Doctor in the Outback by Nicole Flockton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Doctor in the Outback is Book 3 in the Welcome to Bunya Junction series. In it we are introduced to Dr. Scott Caruthers, and Dr. Franceen Lewis, who is an obstetrician. Dr. Scott is kept busy running a small hospital in Waratah River while also trying to set up a foundation to help others achieve their dreams as he has done. Dr. Franceen Lewis has recently become employed at the hospital and is looking for a fresh start in the hopes that she can put her past behind her. After suffering a horrible loss and the breakdown of her marriage she wants to push forward and focus on her career. Both Scott and Franceen find themselves attracted to one another but neither want to admit the attraction. Scott has no time for a relationship and Franceen is nowhere near ready to jump into another relationship. Yet the more time they spend working together the stronger the attraction becomes.

This was a very sweet read with some wonderful characters. Scott and Franceen shared a lot of similarities when it came to their views on relationships. Both felt they were too busy and only wanted to focus on their individual careers. Both were afraid to fall for the other for fear of rejection or the relationship failing. The story flowed well, and it was interesting to see how it would unfold and what would become of Scott and Franceen. Would they allow themselves to feel true happiness or fight it for fear of failure? You will have to read the book to find out. Loved this book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is the first book of the series. It’s also the first book I’ve read by this author. I’m glad I picked it up! This book was such a cute read.

Sophie and Gil have finished up filming their movie. Boy do they have chemistry both on and off set. Sophie and Gil both have their obstacles to work through. Sophie is used to being alone and Gil is afraid of commitment. Will these two be able to make it work off set? Is that even what they want? Gil talks Sophie into taking a break and going to France with him and his family. Maybe this trip is just what they need to figure things out?

I couldn’t get enough of Gil’s family. They were so crazy but it was fun! This book was very well written and was such a good read. I didn’t want to put it down!

Bottom of the Chains (Grimm Wolves MC Book 2) by D.M. Earl
Genre – MC Romance
Page Count – 130

My life has sucked for as far back as I can remember. My folks didn’t want me so I was thrown into foster care. Let me just say lots of fun. NOT.

Then one day, my life took a dramatic change. My circumstances improved greatly. I met The Grimm Wolves MC and they took me under their wing. I became not only a prospect but also part of their brotherhood.

Now I’ve let my brothers down not once, but twice, in less than a month. What if I don’t belong with the club? Feeling the weight of life, how can I prove to the only family I have ever had that I’m worth the trouble? Or maybe the truth is I’m not reliable and useful after all? It all depends on how much of my failure The Grimm Wolves MC are willing to put up with by one of their newest prospects.

4.5 Stars

 

What lengths would you go to in order to save those you love? Would you change history to bring them back? Well, that’s exactly what Bernard does- the loss of his family weighing heavily on his soul, Bernard changes history, which comes with devastating consequences. He has a chance to make things right- to restore the original timeline. And so, the quest begins…..
Return of the Elf Lord is the first book in the Kingdom of the Elf Lords series by Heidi Vanlandingham. It is a wonderfully original mix of fantasy, the paranormal, Norse mythology, elves, magic, action, romance, drama, emotion, adventure, loss/sadness, responsibility, and superb world building….. and it turned out to be every bit as good as I hoped it would be.
This is a wonderful start to a new series that I can’t wait to return to asap, with ‘The Elf Lords Curse” (Book #2)- coming soon I hope….
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Heidi Vanlandingham!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Welcome to Bunya Junction Series. The series is fun to read, the characters are well written and I love that each book concentrates on a couple so you really get to know many of the characters well. This book is about Scott and Franceen. Scott is the very busy and gorgeous CEO and doctor at the hospital and Franceen is the somewhat new Obgyn who moved to work at the rural hospital. Franceen is running from a bad experience with marriage and losing a child. She tries her best to keep everyone at arms length. However, it’s very evident that both Scott and Franceen are attracted to each other.
This book, like the others in the series, kept my attention and I had a hard time stopping to sleep. I can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Sindy moved home several years ago after a bad relationship. She started working at a small doctors office with Colin. She slowly gets her self confidence back and is doing better.
Ryan (a well known plastic surgeon) goes home to say goodbye and pay his last respects to the man who raised him (Colin). After Colin’s passing his medical practice is left to both Sindy and Ryan. Sindy believes Ryan won’t stay in their small town of Bunya Junction and will go back to the city.
They start to develop feelings for each other, but being that they’re business partners until Ryan decides if he’s going to leave (and Sindy is Ryan’s good friends twin sister) a relationship may not be a good idea.

The Ghastly Gumball is a fun, eccentric read. I had enjoyed this author’s books before, which did not disappoint. It is a short, exciting read delving into an imaginative mind. I don’t want to give away anything from the plot, but you have to meet Clyde, the octopus. The characters are entertaining, and the story is fast-paced.

Main points: Enjoyable characters. Good story line. A little bit of steam.

This book is a quick read. I enjoyed that there was a good amount of story line balanced with the romance. One thing I will say is that if you are a reader who doesn’t want the pandemic mentioned in a book you are using to escape, this one might not be the book for you. It doesn’t overpower the story, but it is mentioned.
For some reason, I had a difficult time with the feel of the first chapter and struggled to get into the story, but it smoothed out in chapter two. I can’t pinpoint what exactly the challenge was for me, but I pushed through it, and it was worth it.

Lock is hilarious, from his perspective and mental voice to how he deals with his new reality, I loved him. The magic in the book is so wonderfully introduced and fantastical that, for a little while, I was utterly speechless. This story took me on an unexpected kind of adventure that kept me transfixed and allowed my imagination to run wild. I loved the pace of everything, though the book was short, it felt just right.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in a series that I have loved so far. I have been looking forward to the third sibling Scott getting his own story and it certainly didn’t disappoint.
I have now read several books by this author and I really like her writing style. This story flows really well and keeps you engaged throughout. As I’d been eagerly awaiting Scott’s story, I was hooked immediately and totally engrossed in his story.
I loved the dynamic between Scott and Franceen. Both are skipping around the other, convinced that the other doesn’t have the same feelings, both scared to make that first move. Both have issues from the past that make having a relationship a bit harder for them but these two are meant to be together.
I also loved that we got to see a bit of Ryan and Sindy again as they become a proper little family with the addition of their twins.
This has been a fantastic series. Each book can be read as a standalone but if you are going to read the series then they should be read in order, for continuity and to avoid spoilers.
I already have book 4 waiting for me on my kindle and I’m so looking forward to reading the story of the 4th sibling.

Oh, what a sweet story! Characters face the realities of living in the Australian Outback- a rural area lacking some modern amenities we all seem to take for granted. Topics unique to rural medical care are explored. The bond between adult fraternal twins is visited. The main characters must both face and overcome past betrayals, and take a chance on each other, as well as love. This is a stand-alone story, but also part of a series centering around four adult siblings.
