Speechless. Just speechless. I don’t know how the author ties it. Makes me so mad to be left standing without the second piece of the story and loving her all the more for it. Emotional and raw, this book – no words. I’m going to be reading this over and over until Part Two arrives. Major book hangover!

Lost Bastard is the first book in the Dark Sparrows series by India Kells. I have read/ listened to most of Ms Kells books, and I think this series is going to be a favorite of mine. The suspense and action really held my attention throughout the fast paced book. Deva and Aleksei make a wonderful couple. Both are strong characters who stick together to overcome evil. As they traverse through MCs, cage fighting and the mob, they learn about each other and their families. This series is going to be amazing if this book is any indication. I hope that the secondary characters will flow through the whole series.
The narrator Antonio Turner has a great voice. This is the first book I have listened to by him. He really brought the characters to life and I’m looking forward to hearing more of his narrations.

Taking Flight (Code of Honor Book 2) by Brooke May
5 ++++ Stars
I really enjoyed this story. I fell so much in love with the first book of this series and hoped there would be more to follow. I was so excited when I saw this I one clicked immediately. This one showed me the other side of the sister/family dynamic. It broke my heart and made me angry, but also made me love Jody that much more. Patience, from the first book became one of my favorite characters ever, and Jody isn’t too far behind now. I love this author and this series. I hope it continues and I hope there is more to come from Centennial. I fell in love with this little town in Courage of Us and definitely want more.
This author has a way of grabbing me at page one and doesn’t let go till the end making it impossible to put her books down till they are over. I loved the way Jody took control and also researched and ended up where she did, how she did it was awesome, and the outcome was even more amazing. This can be read as a standalone but the characters from book one are mentioned often and I would highly recommend reading them in order just to have all of the stories and they are simply amazing so why not… I can’t wait for more of Jody and Holt, Patience and Duke, and also whoever is next. It has also made me want to go back and read book 1 again, so that’s the plan.

Beginnings and Endings: A Selection of Short Stories by Jane Suen is a romance slice life kinda book. Each short story was wonderful.
Life never works out the way you expect it to. A father’s passionate quest to inform his kid about an essential part of his past; an accident that has a terrible effect on two lives in different ways; and a weekly routine that turns into the biggest surprise of all time. Beginnings and Endings is a trilogy of short stories that will leave you with a knot in your throat. Over a beloved bowl of breakfast, Grits Girl explores the beginning of a lifetime of love. The Accident is a bittersweet tale about how life can change in the blink of an eye. In the film The End of Summer, two men come to grips with their pasts thanks to an unexpected detour and a child’s pure delight. Each tale is full of surprising twists and turns, and there’s even a bonus flash fiction piece, Pick Me, to brighten your day.
I loved this story and the concept of it as well. I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting. This is the first book that I have read from this author, I cant wait to read more.

Lyon Tamer by Jen Luerssen had me laughing out loud in parts. It is a romcom with plenty of humor, funny banter, and laugh-out-loud moments. The story is everything I have come to expect from Jen Luerssen, well woven, clever, witty, and entirely entertaining. Sheldon Lock is a vet with a reputation as a bit of a player. He has been unlucky in love but has plenty of ‘experience’ between the sheets. Then he meets focused and determined Simone Lyon, who hasn’t got time for a relationship- her energy is aimed at raising funds to rescue big cats from captivity with her Freedom Roar Rescue organisation. But when Sheldon shows up to do some veterinary work- things take an awkward, but interesting turn…. A fun read!

This was a great 5 star read. This is my first read from this author and I really enjoyed it.
Lady Isabel is caught trying to right a wrong, however the Viscount doesn’t believe her intentions. He has been trying to find a wife and he thinks he has found the one that can help him. Will Isabel choose marriage or jail?
As these two spend more time together they grow closer. We get twists and turns that add a great element to the story. I loved the connection between these two. I really liked Lady Isabel, she was a strong character and The Viscount, all I can say is he was hawt and perfect. I was really happy with the ending. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

The Heart of Bakers Bay has just become my favourite read by Danielle Jacks. It is all about finding yourself, growth, and family- wrapped up in a sweet small town romance. Jody’s life is a bit of a mess. She coasts through life one bumble to the next. She can’t seem to hold a job, and if it weren’t for her sister, she would have nowhere to live. Jody has no expectations of herself, no real goals, and her family treat her like a lost hope. Then her grandmother has an accident and next minute Jody finds herself with the task of running her gran’s small town café. Easy peasy, right? Well, not so much. Adam is a local in town who doesn’t have time for outsiders. And definitely this outsider! Things are definitely about to get interesting… I loved the growth and development that Jody went through- she really ‘grew up’ over the course of the story. Adam is so sweet, and he surely wasn’t expecting Jody to come bumbling into his life. But they are both tied together in their desire to help someone in need. A sweet read!

Another 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 from Author Danielle Jacks!! Nothing like a story being totally engrossed in and never wanting it to end. The story of Jody, whom cannot keep a job nor has very good experiences when it comes to keeping a job. When she goes to Clover Bay to help at her Gran’s cafe after her Gran’s accident, Jody learns so much more. Baking, helping to run a business and new friendships come along. We meet Adam, he is rough around the edges. I totally loved Adam’s character. First impressions when Adam meets Jody, he though she was “high maintenance”. You find out Adam falls for Jody and wants her to believe in herself when no one else can. Jody sees herself as a “mess up”. New friendships, love and loss …. I just loved loved loved this book. So happy for a great epilogue as well.

Georgia Clay (Southern Promises Book One) by KG Fletcher was a great read! This was a quick and sweet read. Also very steamy so definitely an 18+ book. I loved reading Clay and Katie’s story. They fit together so perfectly! I’ve actually been wanting to read this book and this series for awhile so I’m glad I finally got a chance to and I wasn’t disappointed! By the way this ended I’m pretty sure it’s a stand a long book and series and I can’t wait to read the next installment of this series.

Jody is what I would call an underachiever. She likes where her life is, and although she’s never kept a job for very long, it’s more about the familiarity with the places and people that she has in Manchester. Shortly after losing her job as a hotel maid, her grandmother in Clover Bay falls and hurts her wrist. Jody promises Adam that there will be a member of her family there the following morning to help. Much to her chagrin, her sister, Hannah, tells her that she will be the one to go to Clover Bay since she made the promise.
Adam is a lifer in Clover Bay. He enjoys his life in Clover Bay and doesn’t like outsiders. After Molly, the owner of The Botanist, Adam calls her granddaughter, Hannah, hoping that she can come and help while Molly recuperates after her accident. Instead, Adam is met by Jody at the top of the hill. She is dressed like a high maintenance, city girl, and he sees her as an intrusion to his quiet hometown.
After talking with Jody, Adam realizes that Jody is insecure. Her failings in life seem to be broadcast as she hopelessly tries to learn how to manage her grandmother’s tea shop and how to bake. Hoping he can make this a little easier, he takes small steps to help her achieve. During his time helping, Adam and Jody grow close. Can a small town man get a city girl like Jody to believe in the small town life? Or will Jody return to her city life?
Danielle Jacks did an amazing job with this sweet story.

This book pulls you in right from the start with super relatable characters who attend the dreaded 10-year high school reunion. I mean who hasn’t had nightmares about that thing and the way Ms. Fletcher draws you back into your own memories through the character descriptions and obvious high school cliques. So, when a chance encounter happens between Katie and Clay, the irresistible pull draws them closer together. What starts with a simple admission from Clay about having a crush on Katie since high school turns into a full-blown fling. Will it be a one-time thing, or can Clay go against his ideas about having a long-distance relationship? Can Katie come to terms with promises made or risk the career she worked so hard for? This is a must-read romance book perfect for summer reading on the beach. The characters are incredibly relatable, and it’s hard not to want to find out what will happen between Katie and Clay!

Bittersweep is a romance taking place in the late 1890’s Texas but it has a mystery aspect to it as well. The main character, Elizabeth, left Bittersweep when she was kicked out of town at 5 years of age. Years later, she returns with a school teacher job and under a false name. She has questions about her past and she thinks she can only get answers from Bittersweep. Elizabeth is a very stubborn and witty woman, also very pretty who can turn the heads of almost all of the men who see her. She meets a man by the name of JP who seems familiar but she can’t quite put her finger on it. All she knows is not to trust his last name.
JP is what you would picture when you imagine a stereotypical 1890s rancher. Strong, handsome, and intelligent but with a soft spot. Both characters are very likeable from the beginning. I was rooting for them to get together the first time they met. JP immediately has a soft spot for Elizabeth. Being in charge of most of the town, he was involved in finding out who, what, where, when and why of a body was found shortly after a bank robbery took place.
I really enjoyed this book due to all the different aspects it touched along the way. It wasn’t just a romance, which made it so much more interesting to me.
Oh my stars!! Georgia Clay is such a sweet romantic story! It will draw you in from the beginning, it sure did me! I’m such a hopeless romantic who loves a great HEA too! Being the first in it’s series it is quiet the perfect southern love story! I LOVED the book oh so much. I fell in love with the characters and the author’s smooth writing style. Was just awed with Katie and Clay’s story it was light and fun, it definitely had its share of steam too. First time read from this author and am so excited to read the next book in this series!

Unlikely in Love is the first book in the Parker Lake series by Olivia Sherwood and I really enjoyed the book. Ms. Sherwood has a way of getting you wrapped up in the story and does a great job developing her characters, even ones that you really don’t think have a big part in the story itself. I have read a few of her earlier books and this is the best one she has written to date.
Annie gets exactly what she deserves when she and Wyatt find their way to one another. She is such a caring soul and the love she has for her late Granny and all of their animals, not to forget her two best friends. She didn’t have the best beginning in life but thankfully her Granny stepped in and took care of her and raised her to be one incredible woman.
Wyatt is an Army Vet who is able to let his emotional wounds heal once he and Annie start working together and they develop their friendship. He is also a caring soul and will do anything for those he loves.
Looking forward to keeping up with this series and these characters since I tend to develop a deep relationship with the characters in the series I like.

The Heart of Baker’s Bay by Danielle Jacks is a quick and romantic story that I found to be sweet and heartwarming. I thought Jody and Adam were so well suited for each other. They each had their own pasts and experiences that made then slightly reluctant but once they got past the reticence their connection was great. This isn’t my first book by this author and I always enjoy her stories. They are easy to read with great characters and great storylines. I don’t hesitate to pick up one of her books because I know it will be worth the read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to more of her work.

Not all heroes wear capes. I enjoyed the complexity of the plot and the development of the characters. I admired the approach that Manda took in creating the main characters, the vulnerability of Grumbler regarding his age and how the opposite sex views him (this alpha male combating his insecurities). There are two sides to a coin; with Grumbler there is no difference; he is a badass who gets things done and on the other hand, he’s an absolute sweetheart when it comes to those he calls family. Can Mary be a more kick-ass understanding mom! I loved how she was portrayed in this novel. Go, Mary! There were certain situations in the novel that did not sit well with (unfortunately for some this is a reality); bless the heavens justice was served. Readers beware. I recommend this slow-burn intriguing page-turner.

Everything a historical romance should be! Lady Isabel Carlyle is just trying to do the right thing when she breaks into Viscount Matthew Rutherford’s home. Little does she know, he is desperately in need of a wife. But for Lady Isabel, things aren’t as bad as they could be. In marrying the Viscount she is able to escape her half brother and his horrible cousin. And for the Viscount it provides him a wife after two engagements that ended in death for his betrothed.
Wareeze sets a perfect scene. The perfect amount of drama, intrigue, danger and romance with characters that are fully developed and carry the story well. I look forward to reading more novels by this author.

The Heart of Baker’s Bay was the first book I read by Danielle Jacks and I loved it. Its a really cute, clean romance book and I didn’t want to put it down. The characters are great, with wonderful realistic personalities, and the chemistry between them is entertaining. The supporting characters are well written too, not just the main two. Jody is stubborn and full of spunk and Adam is like a grumpy old man, but with good reason. The town of Clover Bay sounds wonderful, on the top of a hill, secluded from the rest of the world, but in reality, only a couple hours outside of the city. This book had my emotions on a roller coaster, many times laughing, sometimes in near tears, and then a good happy ending. I highly recommend it, and look forward to reading more by Jacks.

Jody not a one for settle but finds herself in trun when she needs to be there and do things for the family. A wildfire at best can she do this. The interaction are slow and it builds up through the story which is refreshing to see. Adam he’s not what I liked at frist His character grew on me though. This is what I noticed through this book people grow in you just like life.

Manda Mellett does not disappoint. This is the second book of hers I read, and once again, the characters are flawed, relatable, and complex. It’s easy to get Lost (see what I did there?) in the world of bikers that she builds. I loved that the MC’s were older. I love the close bonds of family and friendship that exists between the members of the Satan’s Devil MC. The mystery was intriguing, and the character and story development was exciting to experience. My only problem is now I think I will need to read her entire collection… Oh no, there goes my TBR!

I enjoyed this short steamy read. I love that Poppy was a sweet, cute, nerd and her neighbor Turner was totally into that type. She was so lovely and naive, thinking that she wouldn’t really be anyone’s type but little does she know that Turner has been wanting her for weeks. The misunderstanding at the bbq shows how truly introverted she is, and Turner is so sweet to not give up on her. I look forward to what comes next.

Beginnings and Endings is a trio of short stories by Jane Suen. I really enjoy the variety of Suen’s work – I had read several of her books before it really clicked for me that they were by the same author! – and this collection really showcases her skill in storytelling. It gets four stars from me! Although the three stories are separate and distinct, there is a thread running through them of commitment in relationships. We see couples’ relationships developing and enduring through the ups and downs of life. My main (only?) complaint is that there isn’t more! The stories themselves are quite short and with only three of them (plus a bonus really cute flash fiction) this will not take most readers very long to read at all. I would have loved a wider variety of stories – perhaps including some in the realm of speculative fiction – that I could dip in and out of. I would recommend this collection to readers looking for stories they can quickly enjoy in a coffee break or similar. They’re short, satisfying and thought-provoking. I think they could also work really well for reading and discussing with teenagers, as accessible stories touching on important issues as well as excellent examples of the short story format.

An engaging MM thriller romance which does have trigger warnings and is book two in the ‘Remember My Name Series’ but can be read as a standalone story. Wren Stafford is an Empath, and so the intrusive feelings of others enter his mind and haunt his dreams. Having met the love of his life, Henry, Wren was pleased to put the pain of his past behind him but then he started having predictions of terrible atrocities to come. Although Wren warned his husband, Henry was found murdered and soon after Wren was named the prime suspect. Whilst being condemned by the public and harassed by the police Wren is also having nightmares of his own death, but he is determined to continue his hunt for Henry’s killer. As Wren tries to find clues in his visions to stop the murderer he is running out of time and may even become the next victim. This is a fast paced page turner of a novel which had me gripped from start to finish. The plot twists kept me guessing until the end of the story, which kept me hooked. An exciting storyline and great characters along with the authors descriptive narrative all added to the overall atmosphere of this suspenseful thriller, with a touch of the paranormal in Empath Wren.

I am totally all in with this book! The narrator was truly fantastic in this audio as well. This book is full of twists and turns with suspense, fighting MMA, mafia and mobsters. I loved the spark between Aleksei and Deva. Having a strong female character with Deva, I enjoyed her spirit no non-sense style. Deva comes back from being away as a favor and has to get close to Aleksei whom has some dark ties. This book is just so fantastic, cannot wait to continue this series.

Remember His Name is the 2nd book in the Remember My Name Series by Laurencia Hoffman. It is loosely a series, with not as much overlap/continuation as I would have hoped. I with they were more intertwined, as there were only a couple small mentions of overlap. I wish there was more time spent on the killer and how or why he chose his victims. I would have liked it to be a continuation of the first book, as it had a massive cliff hanger ending. That said, I am not totally disappointed in this series, it was good and held my interest. It just left me longing for more. It is a story that focuses on Wren and his heartache and pain throughout life, being an empath. The story starts out with Wren as a child, and there is a lot of focus put on his dad, and his job. I thought maybe it would take a Mafia twist, but it just kind of set the groundwork for the rest of the story. Without giving it away, I hope the character introduced toward the end gets a book of her own. I want to know what comes of her and to know what happens to the killer… is he caught? Do we learn the why behind it? This book has a trigger warning, and pay attention to it if it might bother you. These themes are strong throughout.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by this author. I enjoyed being pulled into this story by the characters. This is a well written story that I found to be engaging and fast paced. This is a romance story that has characters that pop off the pages and into your heart. They are relatable and just made the story entertaining to read. Jody has come to a new town to help her grandmother but she is not very reliable. Adam wants so much to not like Jody but he finds that he can’t help himself. What will fate have in store for them? Could it have a happy ending? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens to these two characters.
