Cursed Whispers by AJ Renee – Review by Erica Shoebridge

Cursed Whispers (Broderick Coven, #3)Cursed Whispers by A.J. Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was very pleased that Max Broderick got his turn at love. He’s one of my favourite of the Broderick clan – a handsome veterinarian that can communicate with animals? What’s not to love? When he meets injured werewolf Claudia in her wolf form, he is drawn to her, and works hard to save her. After realizing that she is his mate (despite not being a witch!) he is patience personified in his steadfast love for her. She take a long time to heal, but slowly he wins her trust. Max and Claudia’s romance brings new levels of depth to this set of books, and I really enjoyed watching it unfold. We also get to explore the relationship between the Broderick witches and the Alumbra pack of werewolves, and how they have forged a bond, despite weres and witches being natural enemies. This might be the best one yet!

Cursed Sight by AJ Renee – Review by Erica Shoebridge

Cursed Sight (Broderick Coven, #2)Cursed Sight by A.J. Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cursed Sight follows the love story of Serena, high priestess of her witches coven, and Ethan Broderick, youngest brother of the Broderick clan. While mentoring Ethan’s newly developing oracle powers, Serena becomes aware of a strong attraction to him immediately. She identifies that Ethan is her mate, a powerful bond between magical beings, unlike any other. Serena is magnificent in her role as leader in the coven, a strong independent woman, who supports all of her witches to become the best they can. Ethan is young and handsome, learning to become an oracle for the group. His visions are chaotic at first, but many of them revolve around Serena being killed. Together they hunt down the person who is trying to kill her. I tore through this book in one night. Lots of action that keeps you guessing til the end, and the romance was great.

Bared. (A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Shelly Kittell

Bared. (Green St. Girls #1)Bared. by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Such a deliciously exciting romance. Characters that have intense chemistry but also have secrets from their past that must be dealt with. Strong feminine characters make for great novels because she maintains that strength as she also shows some of her vulnerability. She has a strong supportive group of friends that are their for her that make sure to stay in contact. This was such a wonderful novel because it had such a realistic taste of relationships and we got to watch them build and grow. Highly recommend.

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow #2)Cold Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an amazing book. The characters had me feeling all kinds of things. I even cried. So many twists and turns, I was on the edge of my seat. The intensity is palpable between Zoe and Archer. Zoe comes to work for Archer as a dark sparrow to keep an eye on him. Danger is close as he tries to close a deal to sell his Oil and gas refineries. Finch is always in the background in this novel as well. Pulling strings and trying to bring down a bastard son of his. If you loved book one you will fall in love with this book as well. Be prepared to not want to put this book down though. I pulled a very late night. Onto book 3 as I can not get enough of this fabulous author and series.

Hawke (Men of Syn, #1)Hawke by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first ever book I read by Anise.

I enjoyed her modern approach to BDSM with this story involving kinks and sex clubs.

The chemistry between Hawke and Char was super hot. She was a strong confident woman who was trying to discover herself more. He had to discover parts of himself too.

The plot was well planned and written. And I think that both their character’s development was good. The book also had some mystery to it. I did not see the twist towards the end.

I for one am looking forward to seeing more of Anise Storm’s work. .

Hawke (Men of Syn Duet) by Anise Storm – Review by Kerry Carr

Hawke (Men of Syn, #1)Hawke by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. The story is captivating. Its one of those books that you can’t put down because you need to know what happens next. The characters are well written and believable. Their thoughts and feelings are easy to understand and you go through all the emotions with them.

Charlotte is a party planner. When she is hired to organise a party of a new club called Syn she gets into a world she’s has experienced before. That experience has left her scared when the dominant male just left her. Still suffering from that moment she is left reeling when she realises that the guy she is working for is the same guy who abandoned her.

Hawke is a successful business man. He loves his dominent lifestyle and all that brings. He has rules and if they aren’t followed he send the women away. Which is what he did with Charlotte. However she is one submissive he has never stopped thinking about.

Now back in each others lives they have to fight the attraction between them but they are both fighting for opposite things. Charlotte is fighting to prove to him they could walk together where as Hawke wants to distance himself. Hawkes past has made him the man he is today and we learn about his past through this story.

The book is fast paced and very passionate and steamy. And along with with deep parts about Hawkes past life it all gels together to make a romance that you can’t put down.

The Heart of Baker Bay by Danielle Jacks – Review by Mrs R

The Heart of Baker BayThe Heart of Baker Bay by Danielle Jacks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book had me hooked from the beginning. Jody can’t hold down a job, is unfocused and lacks drive – as her family keeps reminding her. Once again she is unemployed, and when her grandma needs someone to help she’s reluctant to go, thinking she’ll only mess it up as usual. However, once away from her family she has the chance to thrive.
Adam had spent his whole life in Clover Bay and has no intentions of ever leaving. He isn’t sure what to make of Jody, but he’s sure nothing can happen as she isn’t staying for long.
As Jody and Adam strike up a friendship, they start to push each others self imposed boundaries, urging and supporting the other to try something new and live a little differently.
I loved how these two helped each other out and really supported each other. Adam was a total sweetheart, always there to help and support anyone who needed him. Leaving her family was the best thing for Jody as I don’t think she realised how much they influenced her work attitude.
I really enjoyed the ending, it was perfect for these two and the epilogue was so sweet.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you’re looking for a feel-good, goose bump filled, happy and nerve-wracking slow burning love story, grab this novel and get cozy! I was itching for an easy read when I elected to pick up this book, and I really am very glad that I did. I found that I really enjoyed the way that the story is told, making sure to give you information on all the characters involved in the main story line, and teasing you with more info, which has me hoping that there will be a second novel, with even more ‘feel good vibes.’ Though I kept waiting for the second shoe to drop, likely from the books I have been reading, this story is all happiness, though does have its very relatable issues between Chloe and Chris, and the others, that arise now and again. I am very excited to read more by Stacey Komosinski, thank you for this happily-ever-after read. I will be recommending this read to others!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sinful Daughter: A mafia Romance by Emily Bowie is a forbidden love story where the good guy falls in love with the Mafia boss’s daughter and the one man he is trying to bring down. I haven’t read any of Emily’s books before and I was pleasantly surprised. This action packed and tension filled tale is full of twists and turns. It is raw and gritty, and entertaining, and full of emotions. He is hellbent on revenge and she wants nothing to do with the family business. She is his way in, and he is her ticket out. But in the end who is left standing?

Dark Bastard (Dark Sparrow, #5)Dark Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dark Bastard is book five in the Dark Sparrow series by the enigmatic author, India Kells. There is nothing better than a troubled soul that finds the light. It appeals to my dark and twisted side. There is always an abundance of excitement and adrenalin inducing action. I love the evolving of each character. The author can spin a tale so the reader can almost feel like an extension of the book. I become one with the characters and there hurt is my hurt. Their triumphs are mine. Their tragedies break my heart. Sam needs to save Evie, while battling his own demons. Their charisma was spine tingling and the feeling between them was everything. Emotions were always high and anything could happen at the next turn of the page. A reader needs to brace. For anything. For everything. This author provides all. Everything a reader could ever possibly want or need in a romance. Its all there. Nothing is spared. An that makes this series, these characters, and this author, unforgettable. Losing a piece of my heart to each and every character is magical. 5 stars.

Bared. (A Green St. Girls Romance) by N.D. Jackson – Review by Angela Hayes

Bared. (Green St. Girls #1)Bared. by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Bared is the first book in the Green St. Girls series by N.D Jackson. I have loved reading N.D Jackson’s other books, so when I saw this, I snapped up a copy and dove right in to see what she had in store for us this time. It is a great read- a contemporary romance- with wonderful characters. The story had all the ingredients to keep me avidly reading- and before I knew it I had devoured the whole story- in one sitting.
As expected, N.D Jackson writes beautifully- her descriptive details brought the story to life- the characters especially are really well developed, complex, and quite endearing. I loved meeting Athena and the rest of the Green St. Girls- add Tru to the mix and the story really shines! Can’t wait for more. Bring on Book #2!
A great start to a new series!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, N.D Jackson!

Avenging Devil Part 2: Satan's Devils MC San DiegoAvenging Devil Part 2: Satan’s Devils MC San Diego by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow. I am completely wowed by this story. Avenging Devil Part 2 is Book 4 in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series by Manda Mellett. This author has such a way with words and knows exactly how to suck you in from the beginning. This story is the continuation of the third book in the series. Saffie has a seriously ridiculous past. Full of violence and abuse that no woman should ever endure. And for Saffie there just may be no way out. Not if Niran has anything to do with it however. Niran is in the thick of it and Saffie believes the lies that are displayed. Will he ever be able to get her and himself out alive? Will she ever believe the real Niran? Well, I am not going to spoil it for you. I will tell you that you will be on an emotional roller coaster. There are so many ups and downs along with twists and turns. This book is so stinking good, I am so excited for the next book in the series. However, I do recommend at least reading Part 1 before you read this book so you can understand what is taking place. You will not be disappointed with this book or any of the books in this series!

Avenging Devil: Part 2 was an incredible read! This book picks up exactly where part 1 left off. I think I like this part better to be honest. There is a lot more action, and the story starts to pick up. This one (to me) was just overall more entertaining and this is the one where all the action starts and ends. I was in tears, suspense and even laughter throughout reading this book. So far these 2 parts might be some of my favorites of Mellett’s Satan’s Devils MC series! I absolutely can not wait to read the next installment in this series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cursed Touch is book four in the Broderick Coven series and Ms. Renee has outdone herself. Her writing per usual flows smoothly and beautifully, and her plot line flows just as wonderfully. As usual her characters are delightful and between them and her plot I was hooked from the first chapter. While this was a great read I personally think it was too short, but still an amazing read none the less. Even though this is a paranormal romance you find yourself relating to the characters and their day to day lives. Ms. Renee seems to be able to pull her readers in from chapter one and make them not want to put this book down until they have devoured it in one sitting. So if your looking for a fast and easy paranormal romance to read this weekend then I highly recommend Cursed Touch by A.J. Renee.

Toni Denise gives us a great novel in Out of Time. This book is the fourth in its series and while I have not read the previous three this one was easy to follow, the characters where wonderful, and the plot was so thrilling that I couldn’t put it down. Her story is filled with suspense, drama, love, and so much more that I devoured the book in one sitting. Ms. Denise gives us such great characters in Jessica, Will and her other characters that I plan on going back and reading the first three. Personally I hope that Ms. Denise isn’t done with this series as I can’t wait to see what she does with these characters next.

The characters are engaging and well developed with loads of chemistry between them. Couldn’t put book down until finished. I highly recommend this book.

Ms. Mellett out did herself with Avenging Devil part 2 I simply loved it so much that I read this book I one day. I was upset with the way Ms. Mellett left us with a big cliff hanger but it was so worth it. The characters are written amazingly. They are strong minded and the way these characters play off each other are great and their quirks make them feel real.

I have loved reading the different chapters and how they come together as a family then to see all these different chapters come together as one was awesome. This is the conclusion of Niran and Saffie’s story.

Can Niran talk himself into the Crazy wolves? What do the crazy wolves have planned for Niran? Can the Satan Devils save their brother and old lady before it’s too late?

You will need to read this book but make sure you read part 1 in Avenging Devil…

Fury of Conviction (“Villains” of the Dragonfury Series) by Coreene Callahan is a paranormal story. This is the second book in the series and is a short story.

With sexy alpha Dragon shifters this little taste of what Coreene can do will have me running back to read more of this intriguing and interesting world she has created. I do love me some shifters.

Defined (Cadence Duet: A Second Chance Romance Book 2)Defined by Dakota Willink
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is Book 2 in the Cadence Defined series, a novel about a second chance love story which picks up 17 years after the first book ends. Although there is a large time gap between novels, Willink maintains her characters personalities throughout their developing timelines.

I listened to the audio book and both narrators did an awesome job; great chemistry and performance! Having two narrators helped to keep events and conversations separated, as without words to follow it can get mixed up in your mind.

Willink has created a great developing plot, which is easy to follow if you haven’t read/listened to Book 1. Reading Book 1 will give you more insight to the characters past and how they were as young adults.

Be prepared that there are firm political views that arise, which were hard not to skip, but other than that Willink has delivered yet again!

Bared: A Green St Girls Romance by N.D. Jackson is, at its heart, a story about great friendships and how strong connections mean everything.

This is an author that I have become more familiar with recently and I love her writing style. Each book feels distinctly different from the last I read and I enjoy that about her work. This is a great overall book and I am looking forward to whatever comes next.

This is a fast paced story that I found to be engaging and hard to put down. The characters are not only relatable but also hot and steamy. They gave life to the story on every page. This is a story about Theo and Aria. He is a cop that is trying to take down a mafia family. He is someone that Aria would love to hate and love. There is a raging war with her family and the problem is Theo is the one who wants to be the victor. He is supposed to be off limits but she can’t help it that everytime he touches her, something happens. What will fate have in store for these two? I enjoyed the chemistry between these two and their heat is off the charts. The growth between these two is amazing. They really made the story for me.

Flirting with my Enemy: A Sweet Romantic Comedy (Love is a Mystery #1)Flirting with my Enemy: A Sweet Romantic Comedy by Laura Burton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love cozy romantic stories and this one really delivered! It was as if a delicious cake with all the layers needed to satisfy a craving, but yet left you wanting more! This was my first read by the author and I am completely head over heels with her work! I spent my entire day reading this, no regrets here! It was a great way to fulfill my morning!

I am a past bakery owner so I always love stories that focus around a bakery. Throw in the two main characters Elle and Zane. Both truly different, but can they find common ground? Perhaps there is a attraction between one another but, both are so wrapped up in their own worlds they can not see it?

Elle owns a wonderful bakery that belonged to her mom. Having this bakery truly has a special place in Elle’s heart. You can tell as you get to know her character that keeping it is really everything to her. As Elle has this bakery.. well so does Zane, but he owns a bakery next door. He is on a different financial level in terms of Elle. He’s basically quite rich. And he is the type of guy if he wants something as in obtaining the next door bakery, you can damn well be sure he’s going to make sure he gets it .To put it mildly, Zane knows how to push Elle’s buttons. As stubborn as she is, she is not one to give in. Even if he may have very charming good looks as well as well as is good with his hands (in terms of baking of course) Perhaps zingers of an attraction can make a dessert so heavenly that it can melt the steel walls between these two people? But they are sworn enemies. How possibly can they over come their differences and realize what is front of them is maybe everything they ever needed?

Elle is a strong and determined person. She believes if she charms Zane with her sweet desserts she will have him wrapped around her finer. She believes matters of the heart are always easy to ignore and she can do this. As time goes on they both grow and change in different ways and we the readers learn new things about their characteristics. They both have a different personality that is so likable and lets face it, they both have that cute personality and their methods of how they go about one another has so much adorableness you cant shy away from wanting to read more to see how things go about!

They both did the unthinkable. Yup. They fell crazy in love with one another. Ells is facing some personal things more than meets the eye. Though she failed her original plan she found the one thing she may very well be unable to live without! But will love triumph overall? Is there wedding bells in this future and perhaps even a wedding cake? Or will this all end before it really even had a chance to put frosting on the cake?

I could not put this book down. Zane and Elle kept me reading and wanting more. I swear it was a good tasting cake. Perfect balance of sweetness but, not to sweet where I had to put it down. i was rooting for these two seriously destined to be together humans. Even if at times they didn’t see eye to eye, they were indeed the perfect recipe for one another.

Again really enjoyed this book and did not want to spare a moment till I finished reading it. Very happy I got to read this book and grow along with Elle and Zane!

Highly recommend. I am pretty sure you wont be able to put it down as I was. Most importantly this author did an amazing story and I truly enjoyed and was quite happy reading it! Wonderful read!

Bared. (Green St. Girls #1)Bared. by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Despite her best efforts to keep her heart encased in a fortress, Athena finds herself giving up morsels of herself to Tru between steamy hookups and sharp-witted banter. The pair find themselves the center of attention among Athena’s friends, who are concerned she’s given up finding joy in life for the comforts of self-reliance, and Tru’s mom, who wants to see her son settle down and have kids already. For Athena’s part, she’s still grieving her best friend’s death and trying to overcome emotional baggage she’s used to just running away from. For Tru’s part, he’s been toyed with before, and after spending some time together, is looking for more than just a fun time.

The author does a great job setting the scene and providing character development. This book has a strong, independent woman who isn’t looking for a hero, which is my favorite type of protagonist; Athena is self-made and only needs to battle her own past to overcome the obstacles in her way. I found the plot to be refreshing in that it wasn’t overly dark despite heavier topics (like grief and abandonment), there were healthy relationships between the characters, and the emotional rollercoaster that goes along with dating someone new was super relatable.
