StormwoodStormwood by Luna Mayfield
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a dark and chilling paranormal romance which had me gripped from page one. Luci Delacroix inherits an estate which has always been passed down the female side through the generations. As well as the estate she receives a box and a ring. Luci is drawn to Stormwood and persuades her fiancé, Beckett that they should leave for the mansion that evening despite there being a storm. As soon as they arrive in the middle of the storm Luci wonders off to explore the mansion as she is drawn to a mysterious entity. Beckett is aware that Luci is acting odd and has a feeling that he is loosing her but does not know why. Luci finds herself more and more taken with the man who’s voice has her own body betraying her and is soon craving his touch.

Meanwhile her and Beckett are arguing, but as he goes off to explore the lighthouse soon Luci is not the only one experiencing the paranormal. As Beckett uncovers the secret of Stormwood he has to save Luci before she becomes lost to the evil that has taken control of the mansion for good. This is a short but addictive read and it was a real page turner. The setting of Stormwood in the dark and during a storm was really bought to life by the descriptive narrative and I felt fully immersed in the storyline. The characters are likeable and relatable and the chemistry between Luci and Beckett sizzled off the page. I felt the dark evil seduction of the mysterious entity and was swept up in this haunting tale. An enjoyable and engaging read.

A Natural PassionA Natural Passion by Tammy Mannersly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Despite being a relatively short read, ‘A Natural Passion’ is enticing and full of life. Dylan and Kyra have a natural chemistry, and the story itself has a lot to offer. Tammy Mannersly has the ability to craft a fantastic tale with just words—it was so easy to see everything clearly in my mind and to be invested in the goings-on of the characters (and the turtles!). This book has the right amount of drama and tension with a whole lot of sweet!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Home to the Outback By Nicole Flockton is a wonderful story set in the outback town of Bunya Junction. It was fantastic to read a book set in Australia and Ms Flockton gave us a great storyline with characters full of heart and depth that you might not have expected when first starting the book.

Dr Ryan Flanagan Returns to the one place he never thought he would step foot into again and is left a partnership in a private practice he certainly had not asked for. Feeling he needs to keep a promise he made, he decides to give it a go, at least for a while. The other half of the partnership is Sindy Carruthers, and even though he knows he should not complicate things his attraction to her is impossible to ignore. He knows he has so much to work out and a town to win over but can he have something with Sindy as well? At the same time Sindy is battling with her attraction to the gorgeous Dr and her fears of the past repeating itself and hurting her again.

Head on over to Bunya Junction and Meet Ryan and Sindy you won’t regret it.

No Way Out (Mafia Elite, #1)No Way Out by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

No Way Out is the first book in this new series by McKinley. The story line in this book is good. The characters are awesome. I loved Max’s type of alpha. He was not out of control with his love and protectiveness. I loved the way Lil feels about Max. She loves him but isn’t so lost in him that she can’t function. She is strong in her own right. And of course, there are the characters that are easy to hate like Lil’s very own father.

The only concern I have with this book is there seemed to be a lot of references to the past. Almost as if there was a book before this one. I wasn’t confused or lost while I read this story but it felt as if I was missing another story. I was able to read and enjoy this book with ease.

Overall, the writing is really good and I am, as always, looking forward to what comes next for this family.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by the authors. I loved this fantasy romance. It’s an easy read and I really fell in love with the characters Rowan, who is sarcastic and forever getting into trouble, and Theo, whom Rowan is basically forbidden from falling in love with because they come from families with a history of being enemies. Rowan is a character of depth and even with her flaws and slight immaturity she’s a very likeable character. There’s plenty of action, the world-building is immersive, and the pacing and writing flow easily. I am now eagerly awaiting the next book in this series.

This was my first book by this author. I’m saddened by this for two reasons. The first is I really wish I had read the first book in this series, as I can tell there are things I missed, although not completely necessary because I really loved this story. Second, I really love this authors writing style and enjoyed every word, and really hated when the book ended. The characters were beautifully written in a way that I felt I knew and understood them. I truly felt the emotions that were displayed throughout and literally read this in one sitting! There were quite a few perfectly placed twists that kept me on my toes, and that alone made me love this story even more! I will be buying the first book as soon as I finish this review and will read it today..

Awesome story, Awesome writing! Just love finding new authors that blow me away and can’t wait for more!

I loved the idea of this book and I loved finding a new author, one which I will read more of. I usually love a fast moving story, but there were times this moved a bit too fast for me and ended quickly. I didn’t get the build up I love when a book has this much going on. When I finished I didn’t feel as satisfied as I thought I would. In saying all of that, I did enjoy the book. It had a unique storyline that just needed a bit more expanding in parts. I really thought the book was going to end in a different way, so I was surprised at that, which I did love! I guess I just wish the book had been a bit longer and more time was spent on some of the scenes and topics.

I will definitely read more from this author as I did enjoy the writing style very much!

3.5 stars

Saratoga Roan by Bree M. Lewandowksi is a western second chance romance story. It is a push and pull storyline as they both come together again for the first time in five years. Can they overcome their past and move forward or will the pain be too much and keep them apart? This is a short very quick and easy read. I enjoyed seeing their relationship reignite, as well as the drama that comes with leaving behind a first love.

Scarlet Princess (The Lochlann Feuds, #1)Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The cover of Scarlet Princess instantly made me think it was an adult Brave retelling but that is not a correct statement. While it is about a spunky princess full of rebellion and sass, that’s basically where the comparison ends. Rowan, our princess, gets caught up in an enemy land after trying to smuggle some excellent vodka when the tunnel they are in caves in and closes them off from their path. The rest is a story of romance, adventure, and what fate has in store for them and their lands. If you like the One Bed trope, have we got an even better option for you in Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison.

Cover Designer – Chloe Belle Arts

I don’t normally stare at men’s butts. Especially not random guys in my local coffee shop. I mean, I’m a single working mom, completely devoted to my four-year-old daughter. This so isn’t me. It’s just that his backside is … phenomenal.
Turns out his name is Tanner and he’s been watching me right back. Not at the coffee shop, but from his construction site across the street from my apartment.
After a couple of flirty encounters, our mutual attraction leads to a no strings attached bargain based purely on convenience and pleasure. This arrangement is totally uncharacteristic for me, but it’s also perfect.
Or so I tell myself. Before long, we’re spending time with each other that has nothing to do with our agreement and things between us start to feel all too real.
When my swoony, completely unreliable, rock star ex comes back into town begging for a chance to reunite our family, things get … complicated.
Suddenly, Tanner is jealous and I’m trying to figure out where I stand and what I want, torn between what makes me happy and what’s best for my daughter.
No Strings Attached is a steamy stand-alone romance with a guaranteed HEA by the author of Hula Girl.

Gavin McLean is an astute, accomplished and dedicated homicide detective. His days are filled with solving brutal murder cases, delving into the psyches of the worst humanity has to offer. His work comes first, to the detriment of his personal life.
His sleeping hours are plagued by a reoccurring dream of a beautiful naked woman with long brown hair. He’s mesmerized by her shapely backside, which is all he can see in the vision. The dream is erratic, with no patterns to help discern frequency or cause … with one complicated exception. She is always suspended by her hands, from a meat hook, on the ceiling, and pleads for her life.
With his personal life in turmoil and dreams shortening his sleep, he struggles to keep his world in operating order. He distracts himself by having an encounter with a frequent lover. Then fate steps in when a woman is found naked and dead, in a dumpster.
Is Gavin’s dream becoming his reality? Sometimes nothing is as it seems.

Debbie has always been an avid reader, but writing never occurred to her. That was until an illness gave her the time and inspiration needed to begin her journey in words. After writing down a few chapters of a story that had whispered into her head, she gave it to a few friends to read. The rest became her first book, The Kiss Me Chronicles. 

Debbie freely credits her stories to her muses, the characters themselves. They occupy her thoughts and dreams, presenting her with their narratives on their lives and loves. On occasion, she has tried to put her own take on their story, only to be quickly corrected by the true authors.

Debbie has traveled extensively and has a deep love of American history. Her novels are often based on historical events as well as places she has visited. She is also an amateur genealogist, having traced her own family roots.

Debbie currently has sixteen published books with many more in various stages of production. She has finished her tetralogy of ‘what or where is your safe place.’ She has also branched out of the romance/historical romance genre to include a teenage appropriate story based on Dorothy’s (The Wizard of Oz) great-granddaughter, Dee, and her shoes titled, The Wonderfully Ugly Traveling Shoes. Hopefully, Dee won’t leave Debbie in some far off time or place.

When overworked supermodel Pandora Sebastian flees a taxing photoshoot and takes refuge in Bunya Junction’s only pub—all while dressed as a bride—the locals are unexpectedly welcoming. Pandora may not be a runaway bride, but she does need a break from her high-powered career. Why not stay in this idyllic little country town and consider her options?
Jonas Carruthers thinks he’s seen it all—until Pandora bursts into his pub and his life. She’s everything he doesn’t expect her to be: kind, compassionate, hardworking, and interested in him. And despite wanting to help her, she’s also the only one who can own her mistakes, fix the PR mess she’s in, and rescue her career.
As much as she wants to stay hidden in Bunya Junction, Pandora needs to face the press and wear the consequences. Jonas has been great, but there’s no way he’ll step up to support her choices. Or will he?

Stormwood by Luna Mayfield is a page-turner of a paranormal romance. I started this book this morning and could not put it down. It is a quick and easy read. It was written in such a way that it reminded of the psychological thrill that the old Halloween movies gave me. You have two haunting spirits, an estate with a mystery and a ring left to Luci, her fiance and some major paranormal activity to solve and figure out. I’m telling you that Luci gives mood ring a new definition. The author writes with the write amount of chill and suspense. Tolle gives me the creeps. I may have trouble sleeping tonight (just kidding.) The whole character/spirit angle was great. I was left wanting more. I do believe I found another new favorite for my paranormal books. Highly recommend!!!

Amy Mckinley knows how to draw you in and tell a story! I have gotten hooked on her books. This Mafia romance was over the top and was everything it promised to be. Max and Lillianna had steam coming from the pages. The drama, suspense, passion and unpredictable twists really drive you to devour this book.
Lilliana’s grandfather is Max’s mentor and the one sent to rescue her from her sadistic father and keep her safe. Max is our typical Alpha hero, but finds this Mafia princess is anything but a damsel in distress. Lilliana our heroine definitely holds her own, and is fierce and intense. Together these 2 uncover some dark secrets, and weather some unexpected storms. As the story comes to light Max and Lilliana find love and trust together, and nothing can keep them apart.

Something Lost (Funeral and Weddings Series Book 1) by Bernadette Marie

4 out of 5 Stars

In this endearing story, Bernadette Marie introduces us to a team of characters. This story focuses on Rachel and Craig, but without the team the story wouldn’t be the same. The bonds shared between the friends and family in series will keep you coming back for more.

Rachel Diaz, daughter of a beloved basketball coach, is picking up the pieces of her heart once again. Rachel’s father has just passed away. His team, a group of five now men, have all agreed to be pallbearers. The only problem is that the love of Rachel’s life, the one that broke her heart, is one of those five. Craig Turner had dealt with plenty of his own issues. His drunken father that showed up for all of two minutes was part of the reason Craig left town, left Rachel. When he received the call to honor his coach, Craig knew he would see her but was he ready? Does he still love her? Will she even talk to him after ten years apart?

This story of redemption, forgiveness and second chances is heartfelt and wonderfully told. The characters are all regular people just trying to live their lives and find their way. Rachel, Catherine, Alex, Toby, Craig, Ray, and Bruce are interconnected and woven throughout each other’s lives in ways they are just starting to realize. As the series continues, I look forward to reading about each one! I love this casual, cozy series.

This is an awesome start to a series, the co-authors have done an amazing job in their world building and character introductions. Their writing styles blend together perfectly and they have a way of pulling you in that you get lost in the book, not wanting to put it down.

This is honestly my shortest review, but once you read this book you’ll understand why I can’t put anymore without giving it all away. The main character has a fiery passion that draws you in to her story; many times I found myself trying to read pages faster then my mind could keep up.

No Way Out is a great start to a new series, which is no surprise. Amy McKinley knocks it out of the park with each new series. I am already hooked and cannot wait to go on to book 2 and see what this series has in store. This book is action packed, with a good balance of romance, and keeps us guessing. I kept waiting for Max to turn out to have some dark past, and was worried to like him too much. But the story is perfect, and had a big screw you to the “bad guys” and has a huge reveal that makes the match between Max and Liliana that much more perfect. I love McKinley’s characters, because the women are always strong tough women, who don’t need to rely on the men in their lives. I love Liliana and her friends stick up for each other, and take care of business attitudes. I hope they each get their own story in the series! Highly recommend this book, and cannot wait for the next book.

If you are looking for a suspenseful story with a little romance mixed in, look no further. Thia Finn has masterfully done that in this story. The more I read the book the more I needed to read what was coming next. I could not put the book down. Her descriptive writing paints a picture that would stay with me for a while. The characters are wonderful. They are fully developed and complex. Who knew that one can fall in love with a character like they are right there in the room with you. Callie is a sweet girl who is getting out of a horrible marriage. Her ex-husband is an abusive a-hole. CC Chapman is not sure if he is the right one to be with Callie. I highly recommend reading this book to see what happens between Callie and CC Chapman. Trust me is it worth the read.

Amy McKinley really freaking served with this one. A little slow moving at first, then it all unfolded. Beautifully written characters, an intense plot and really paved the way to a series I can’t wait to continue.

I feel like recently the leading ladies in books have been a little disappointing, but that was NOT the case with Liliana. She was so much more than a mafia “princess”. She showed strength even through fear, and I loved her for that. And Max? *swoon* Max was the alpha male you expect in books like these, but he wasn’t JUST that. Which is why I loved this book so much. It was complex, it was steamy, it was full of drama and danger and twists. I can’t wait for the next one!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Vanessa is a hairdresser and just wants her younger brother, Piper, to feel better. When her neighbor has a conversation with a good looking man, she becomes intrigued by him. What she doesn’t know is that he negotiates contracts with humans for their souls. While in New York City, looking for a doctor who can help her brother, she runs into his half brother and is also intrigued by him. Lurking closeby is yet another brother and each brother’s mother (who btw are not at all interested in Vanessa staying around.)
Opinion
I’ve read a lot of books that focus on Greek/Roman gods and demigods. This one takes on a new approach where the MC is interested in multiple brothers. She is pretty wholesome, which shouldn’t interest at least one brother, but they are interested.
The style of writing is completely fluid with short(ish) chapters. While I can see someone reading this book in small bursts, I personally read it in almost one setting. It has been quite a while since I have read a book without taking breaks. I enjoyed this book tremendously and anticipate the next two (which will be read within the next two days if I have anything to say about it.)

I have really enjoyed this series so far and this book did not disappoint. It was filled with all of the same awesome level of romance, drama and intrigue.

Vanessa once again finds herself in a predicament after having come to the notice of Grey’s mother. With only 24 hours to complete her mission or suffer permanent death, she has little time to waste…but there is always time for romance! She gets transported back to the Overworld on a task where she is reunited with Raef briefly before she is kidnapped by Aroz to Upperworld.

I love how all of these characters have developed through this series and I love how each of the Gods is so very different from the others. The cliffhanger at the end will have you hoping Book 4 comes out very soon!

Growing up in the North Eastern US, everything is so fast paced and most are rude and in a rush all the time. I’ve always felt out of place thinking I’m better suited for small town living. Which is why I love to escape into stories that are exactly like that.
that.
I also love the character development displayed in this book. I really look forward to reading the next book in the series and then some. I will also try to check out other books by Nicole Flockton as well!
In conclusion, if you like a small town love story, that was initially a childhood crush, with reservations and complications along the way check it out!

Scarlet Princess (The Lochlann Feuds, #1)Scarlet Princess by Robin D. Mahle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I do believe I have a new favorite series. Or at least a tie. I was hooked from the first line! I started reading this morning and did not put the book down until I finished it. I’m now going to read other books by this author because the stories she tells are so captivating and imaginative. This book has most of the things I love in it. Magic, romance, thrills, and a strong female lead. I cried at the end of the book and cannot wait for the next one. Several times my heart nearly beat out of my chest with excitement and wonder at what was going to happen. I am so happy I stumbled across this amazing book. Please do yourself a favor and read it. I promise you’ll fall in love!
