I knew from the very beginning that I would like this book. Right around the part at the bar with the Crocodile shifter and I had my first laugh, I knew. I wasn’t wrong! This book was so much fun to read. It was funny, spicey and a fun twist to the normal Paranormal romances I tend to read. I believe this was the first book by Carrie Pulkinen I’ve read, but now I’m going back for the rest! Absolutely recommend!

This was a great 5 star read and the final book in this great series. If you like western romance you will really enjoy the series. Once you get started you won’t want to put it down.
Things are going great for Rebecca. She is in her happy place of singing and rodeo. She’s married with a family. But of course life has difficult moments and they definitely come Rebecca’s way. My emotions were all over the place at times.
Overall I really enjoyed this story. The characters were great and the author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. It can be read as a stand alone but I would suggest reading the first two books in the series before this one so that you can enjoy the story more. 1-click and get started today.

I’ll admit, I am not a huge Sci-Fi reader, but this book was awesome. I was invested from the very beginning. As if missing three hours of your life wasn’t confusing enough, the sequence of events that follow as Asia tries to uncover what happened and why was a roller coaster of emotion, action, and romance that I will definitely be reading again! The characters are all so complex and beautifully written, making it so easy to get hooked into the story. If you are thinking of taking a chance on this book, then my advice would be get a comfortable chair, a nice snack, and a warm beverage because when you start this book, you definitely wont want to put it down.

Frelick – Review by Ashleyann Sanabria
While I am not usually a Sci-Fi reader I thought that this sci-fi romance might change my mind and boy was I right. While I have not read the previous installments in this series it can be read as a stand alone but I do plan to read the previous four. This book was full of multiple Pov’s, two broken hearts, old wounds, slavery, shapeshifters and more it really pulled me in from the beginning and kept me turning the pages. This is the first book that I have read by this author but it will not be my last. This book was also full of suspense, mystery, and adventure, and this author weaves a beautiful story full of fantastic characters and a wonderful plot. So if you like Sci-fi or your looking for a new genre to try, I highly recommend this story.

Frelick – Review by stephanie nicole
5/5 This book is the third in a series that takes place in a small town in Oklahoma where everyone knows you, your momma, and your grandma. It has that feel-good heart-warming vibe that I adore reading about. This story being the third in a series opens up with a lot of characters in the first chapter and since I did not read the first two books I honestly was very confused. The author did give some backstory to the characters as she introduced them but it did take me about 2 to 3 chapters to understand the dynamics and all the characters. I was worried I wouldn’t get the big picture of the book having just read this one in the series but that turned out to not be the case at all. As the book progressed, I really understood the people and the relationships and the way this little town worked. I immediately liked CC and knew I would connect to her. This book follows CC, a townie and the only hairstylist around, and Brant, the new to town guy who has run the health clinic for the last two and half years with the plan to make it 3 years in the small town to have his student debt relieved and then get back to his life in the city. It all takes a turn when the town helps CC raise money, she needs to finish renovating the gym she wants to open and CC’s friends buy her a date with the handsome Nurse Practitioner. She has spent the 2 and a half years he’s been in town avoiding him and he’s been admiring her from a distance. After their date based off the auction things start to look up for these two. They bond over shared stories of their childhood and learn they might not be so different from one another as they begin to fall for each other. The slow burn of this romance was a good one. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time with angst just waiting for them to give in to each other. The way CC tried to push away her feelings and the longing Brant had was everything I love in a romance. Then you add in the drama and plot twist which I did not see coming that leads to some heartache for both characters and you had me turn page after page until I finished this book in less than two days. I could not stop reading this I just had to watch them fall in love and then the fighting and making up I was dying to see how this would turn out because when they were hurting I felt like I was hurting as well. I was so invested. This couple was so beautiful and funny and easy to relate to on so many levels. This was such a good book I now am wanting to read the other books in the series even though I know the way they end just to get more out of the little universe here and read all there is about Parker Lane and this tiny town in Oklahoma

This is an excellent read- both as a stand-alone, and as part of a series. Readers learn a bit about the business aspect of the music industry. African-American issues feature prominently in the novel, and the author introduces and educates readers who might be unfamiliar with some of these issues. The characters deal with issues that most people face- balancing work and family life, as well as adult children interacting with their parents. This story has romance, family, unrequited love, and healing.

I enjoyed this book. Lael Saphora is Hinarr, a race of people who can shapeshift into snow cats. Trevyn Dar is Thane, the race of people who subjugate the Hinarr, and who count hunting the Hinarr in their cat shapes to be the ultimate sport. Star-crossed is definitely a descriptor to use for them.
This story is more than a sci-fi romance, there is suspense, danger, and conspiracy everywhere. There are multiple factions Lael and Trevyn have to beware of, and they are forced to rely on each other to survive. There are interesting creatures, the settings are described vividly, and if you read the previous books, there are appearances by a few characters you might recognize. Definitely give this a read!

Frelick – Review by Katrina Evanochko
A romantic suspense with paranormal and magical realism elements which gives this story an element of intrigue. As the fifth book in the series, I recommend that you read the previous books to get a better understanding of the characters and their back stories as it is a remarkable journey. I am sure you could read it as a standalone, but I can assure you will want to start at the beginning. This is a story about love and family, secrets and lies, mystery and uncertainty. Their happiness is shadowed by doubt, betrayal, obstacles, and forces that wish to tear them apart. There are twists and suspense that keep you turning the pages. Miles a music mogul will stop at nothing to make his dreams come true. BUT is it worth it if the price to pay is family? Reviewed by @jennadb

To be honest I had to look up the definition of succubus and incubus to fully understand the main characters. While this book doesn’t portray them in the same light as the definition I like to educate myself a bit if I do not understand something.
This book is your cutesy enemies to lovers romance with a supernatural spin. Katrina thinks that by being good and abstaining that Satan will forget about her and she’ll finally be free of his constraints. She assembles an app that allows supernaturals to essentially swipe right to show they are interested in a sexual relationship with other supernaturals. The app is a roaring success until Gabe, an incubus, comes into town with his own seminar. It is demon against demon for the relationship expert title of New Orleans and each side has their own secrets, some bigger than others. Can they find a way to coexist and move beyond their own limitations? Or is New Orleans only big enough for one demon? If you enjoy romance books with adult themes then this will surely be up your alley!

What a great addition to the series! It was so enjoyable to get back into this authors work and this story was a brilliant way to do that. I do think you need to have read the previous books first in order to get full enjoyment of the series. I thought this book was well written and exciting. I found myself invested in the story and the characters the whole way through and couldn’t wait to see how things would turn out. This is an interesting series that is certainly would a read.

Shake Loose the Border is the third book in the Thunder On The Moor series. It’s definitely worth starting with book one (Thunder On The Moor) as a lot happens in the earlier books that impacts on the events of this one. Thunder On The Moor is a historical fiction series with a time travel twist. The historical setting is the Scottish borders in the mid-16th Century, and a lot of research has gone into the level of historical detail which really paints a vivid picture. Thanks to the time travel, we get to experience the past through modern eyes, as Maggie learns to accept the realities of the world she has found herself in. This is an emotional book, and there is a fair bit of violence as well. But there’s also plenty of warmth and character to keep it balanced! I would recommend this to fans of other time travel stories with strong historical elements, such as Outlander. It gets five stars from me – a totally engrossing read!

Trevyn Dar is from a planet called Thrane, he is one of the ruling class of the Thrane and is the son of one of the many Ruling Houses, the House of Dar, however, he isn’t anything like his father, known as the Butcher of the Four Systems, or brother and cannot understand their bloodlust or violent way of life, so he makes the decision to escape from that legendary heritage and strike out on his own and is now a member of the Interstellar Council of Abolition and Rescue. Lael Saphora is a woman also from the planet Thrane, however, she is from the other race who live on the planet, she is a Hinarr, a snow cat shifter who shares a mind and body with her Companion and who from a young age has experienced prejudice, violence and hatred from the ruling class who think because they don’t have telepathic abilities, that they are a lesser species and that they are only useful as something to hunt.
One day, Lael is bringing home a shipment of goods which her people are in need of, but on the way, she is arrested and detained by Rescue and her goods seized, however, when she sees that the person who has boarded her ship is a Thrane, she is even more angry. Meanwhile, Trevyn is trying to figure out why Lael has been arrested and when it is shown that she is a slaver, he knows that this is not possible because of her being a Hinarr and realises that she is a victim of an injustice in her own right, especially when he is told to deliver her to the Thrane Inquisitors for questioning. Trevyn knows that if she is sent back to Thrane that she faces torture and a slow and painful death at their hands, so even though he isn’t welcome on his home planet, he decides to escort her and delay her mistreatment as long as he can while he investigates the treasons for her arrest.
As Trevyn investigates and calls in some favours, he uncovers a deeper plot which encompasses more than just Thrane and has much farther reaching consequences than originally thought, but can a Thrane and a Hinarr overcome the barriers between them and a tragic past event to lead the Uprising, or will the conspirators win out in the end? This is a fast paced race to free the wrongly imprisoned before time runs out while love is trying to win over hate and prejudice in this story which will hook you in and take you on a whirlwind ride through rugged terrain and the peaks and troughs of an emotional rollercoaster all at the same time.

What do you do when your lifelong best friend accuses you of spreading rumors? Ugh! Poor Kirsa tried for years to get Brock to listen, but it fell on deaf ears. That is until Rylan showed up and saw that Kirsa needed a friend and decided to be someone she could count on. Will Brock be willing to open up and finally listen to Kirsa? This book kind of reminded me of a friend I once had minus the bullying. Even though this is a contemporary sports romance, I felt like this more of an enemies to lovers type book. Even though the theme of a sport and romance was interwoven it didn’t hit me as what it is categorized. Overall though this was a good read and I have so far enjoyed this authors works.

Check In (Bobbins Sisters Series Book 2) by Debra Parmley
4 out of 5 Stars
Leann Bobbins has had her share of drama. A couple of years ago when she came to Barlett to visit her sister, Leann’s stalker wannabe boyfriend kidnapped her cat and followed her to town and then attempted to abduct her. Thankfully that did not happen. Leann is finally moving on from that incident when she meets Len Yardley, a local police officer.
Len feels almost instantly protective over Leann. They develop a quick friendship that is leading to more. All in part to their daily check in calls. This was something they decided to do because they didn’t always get to see each other due to scheduling. When Leann misses one of the calls, Len starts to worry. He calls her. Leann finds herself in trouble again. Will Len be able to save her?
A sweet, delightful short story! These Bobbins girls just can’t seem to stay out of trouble. The author does a great job of incorporating strong veterans into the stories. Looking forward to getting to know the 3rd Bobbins sister!

There is so much I want to say about this book. First, this is not a short book so prepare yourself depending on how fast you read. Secondly, the book is about a woman, Tori, who is a psychologist. Over the last couple of years, she took on the responsibility of helping people during their last days by befriending them. She has taken some time off of doing that for reasons you will not really learn in this book. However, her best friend, who is a nurse, asked if she could make an exception for a 29 year old man who is in end stage cancer named Will. Will is a stubborn and angry individual when she first meets him, but quickly wins his affection. They become friends and develop a bond like no other. This bond becomes difficult because of the millions of feelings that have to be spoken, dealt with, and accepted. The book was amazing at showing both sides of death – the dying and those caring for the dying.
As a psychologist and caregiver myself, there was so much I recognized and learned from reading this book. I just fell in love with both main characters and even through the hard stuff envied the friendship that was developed. I am someone who has had to face the idea of death after my daughter was born with Cystic Fibrosis. While she is doing very well right now, I still understand that this is a disease that can take a different path at any time, and premature death is always a possibility. I thought the author had Tori partake in this relationship in the most perfect of ways: hopeful, being an amazing asset of support, honest, sympathetic, and just letting people move at their pace, but also encouraged to move further. This book also came at a great time for me because this semester I am teaching Psych of Death and Dying. So if you are interested in ways to move forward watching someone else’s story, this book displays positivity and hope within death.

This was my first read from this author and I loved it. This was a fast paced 5 star read full of adventure, danger, and action. The author pulls you in right from the beginning and you don’t want to put it down.
Lydia finds herself in the jungle trying to save her boyfriend, Cam. The only thing that will save him is the artifact that Cam has stashed . And who does she get to help her, her ex, yup was pretty entertained with this since he had his own agenda as well.
Will they find Cam before it’s too late?
Overall I really enjoyed this read. There are several twists, turns and surprises. Loved Lydia and her personality,Cam was great as well. All characters added a great element to the story. There was so much going on my head was spinning, I couldn’t wait to see what was coming next. If you’re looking for a read that pulls you right in, I highly suggest this one. I can’t wait to read more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

This is the 5th book in this paranormal romance series, although each can be read as a standalone. I had previously read the 3rd book in this series although I was unaware of this when I started reading, only to realise that I had read about these characters before. I really enjoyed reading about Miles (Ari) and Bella again. Things have moved on a great deal since I last read about them and they are now the proud parents of twins who also have the same unusual power that their father has. This book mainly revolves around their professional relationship with rap singer Pharoah, who in turn causes some conflict within their marriage. I was not a fan of Pharoah although I enjoyed reading about him and the troubles that he caused. He certainly was an entertaining character. The author does a great job of writing an entertaining story that keeps the reader engaged, with a few twists and turns thrown in that I definitely didn’t see coming. I really enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it to others.

Historical, Suspenseful and Romance that will pull at your heartstrings. It has been a while since I have cried this much, while reading. This is Maggie and Will’s dramatic story. So much happens and that is what will keep you reading. As you will not find a safe stopping point. You will have the need to find out what happens next. I could not put it down, nor could I stop the tears. I recommend you start with book 1 in this series. Just to get to know the characters in this series. This Author has an eye for details, as well has knowledge of the past. There is so much more I could say, but that would involve giving you Spoilers. No Spoilers in this review! I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series. Please Hurry, Author!

Well, it’s been an adventure with this series. Miles and Bella have a few more adventures in this, book 5 of the series. The twins have been born. They are doing well with their music business. Haunting and tragic mishaps happen. Mysteries abound, adventure happens and tragedy occurs. Will Miles and Bella survive? Will their love be enough to overcome everything? This book gripped me and had me on an emotional roller coaster. Holy smokes, I’m not quite ready for it to be over. It’s one of my favorite series. I truly recommend this series to any suspense lovers. Give it a shot. Surprised me around many corners. Thank you, author, for a wonderful book adventure. I hope to read more of your books.

This was a quick, but amazing read. Lydia reminds me of me because I would do anything for my fiancé even if that means going with complete strangers and my ex-boyfriend into a jungle. He’s my best friend. Lydia is such a strong independent woman and I love it. That’s what makes her who she is. She is willing to do anything for the man she loves.

This was my first time reading anything by this gifted author, I am honesty quite hooked. The characters, the overall story, there was so much I loved, I would probably be writing a long time if I put all my feelings into words haha. I loved the flow, the story itself was a mystery with its own level of suspense! I will defiantly be reading the other books in the series by this author, they truly have amazed my mind in a good way!
I always have beena big fan of paranormal. This one struck my interest though on a new level. It was not just paranormal mixed with fantasy. I personally loved how the story with Miles and his paranormal ability with fire. I did not expect that at first glance. It made him a interesting character from the start. What really added to his make of being interest was his personality though. We all have our dark side right/ how dark is that side really to achieve what we want most in life? Bella was wonderful as well. She was very family orientated which I loved. I loved how she was career driven, and yet always made time for her husband and her kids. Put the whole family together and I will say I loved how supportive they all were of one another, strong family, loved that aspect! The characters were written very well and the story was very engaging, and I could not put this one down, as said I will be reading the prior books for sure!
The story itself really kept me hooked as well! That would be the work of this wonderful author, they knew how to keep the story flowing at a good pace, not too quick and certainly not to slow. They kept the reader as myself interested and wanting to know more of what would happen and what could happen next. I was in a lot of suspense and edge of my seat as I read, the book was a trill ride for me and I honestly could not get enough! Loved this book and its a must read for sure with no doubt!
As have said, this was a gripping amazing read. I loved the author and they gave gained a new stalker now haha. I loved this book and I think the rest of the series prior will be just as amazing! I do highly recommend this author and this book, as well as this series, wonderful on all ends, not ones to be passed up and that’s a fact. Highly recommend, this is something you truly will enjoy to your heart’s content!

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I have picked up from her. Coupled with her writing skills and her attention to details make her stories hard to put down and entertaining to read. This book is no different. This is a paranormal romance story that is full of fantasy and magic. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters who brought the story to life on each page. This is a fast paced story about love and betrayal. It brings suspense and twists and turns that you don’t want to miss. Miles and Bella are about to find out what the price is to success as they put not only themselves in danger but those they love as well. This is a really great story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book.

Have you read Books 1 and 2? You dont have to, because this is a good standalone but the backstories of everyone blend well into each other if you have already read one and two. This was action packed and I don’t want to give away spoilers but I will say there are dramatic moments and we all want to see if Em and Stefano wind up together because they have been in love since forever but there’s always arranged marriages in the Mafia family and there is talk of human trafficking so readers beware. There are dope women though who can kick some ass and that’s what we are here for. There is major empowerment in these books. Hard to put down and I am ready for more.

This was a lovely short sweet read. Bella and Miles are trying to find a balance between private life and outside life. A balance that many find hard to achieve. I would highly recommend reading this series in order. I adore Bella she is such an assessment of the series.

A succubus and and incubus who both want their freedom from Satan accidentally fall in love. Katrina runs a successful dating app helping her fellow supernatural beings have no strings attached relationships. Gabe is making his rounds as a motivational speaker of sorts by teaching people to connect on an emotional level rather than just physical. They both have their reasons for wanting their freedom, but is the cost of the deals made worth it? Can they coexist in the same city? I have read other books in this series and have enjoyed every single one of them. Once again the author does not disappoint and keeps the quick wit and quirky sayings coming. This book, like the others, can be read in one sitting as you will find yourself not wanting to put this down.

From multi-award-winning author Michele Sims, Face the Fire is the 5th book in the Moore Family Saga. A standalone, genre bending, romantic suspense novel with paranormal and magical realism elements.
Miles Moore will stop at nothing to make his dreams of a music empire a reality.
Fame. Secret powers. Fortune. An unrelenting drive for success. He has all the building blocks he needs.
Except for one thing… and the woman he loves holds the keys to his future.
Bella Moore, the Chief Marketing Officer of their growing company, wants nothing more than to help her husband realize his goals. But for her, the choice of family over business is a no-brainer. After discovering more about the competitive nature of the music industry, she fears a growing feud with their competitors will result in bloodshed.
In this romantic and suspenseful tale filled with the power of magic and ignited by the threat of revealed secrets, Miles and Bella discover that the price of their shared success is too high, if it means endangering their lives and the lives of those they love.

Ride with the Moonlight picks up right where the first book left off. This book pulled me in and held me tight till the end. I couldn’t put it down! Maggie and Will’s story is one that pulls on your heartstrings, hard. I love the use of the dialect to really bring you into 16th century Scotland. I can’t wait to read the third book.

A book by this author never fails to completely grab my attention from start to finish, and it seems the audio books are just the same. Although I have read most of these books this is only the second audio book I have listened to. It took no time at all for me to be completely immersed in the story. I found myself making excuses to plug my headphones in so I could jump straight back in. The story translates so well into the audio version, losing none of the excitement you get from the actual book. It was so easy to imagine the characters and the events of the book. This is a fantastic book that I would highly recommend to everyone.
