Nightfall by TK Lawyer – Review by Amanda Lundin

NightfallNightfall by T.K. Lawyer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an interesting shifter/human romance and the first book from TK Lawyer I have read.

The good: I absolutely love how flawed her characters are. They get mad, jealous, and have insecurities that don’t just magically disappear once they say “I love you”. They have trauma and fears that hold them back and provide obstacles they struggle to overcome. Her descriptions are realistic and her spicy scenes are classy and hot.

The different: (slight spoiler alert) The first half of the book was mildly uncomfortable to me as the main character was bonding a bit too closely with the dog/wolf for my personal tastes. She acknowledged it was wrong but it still made me feel awkward reading her reactions to the dog/wolf showing affection. I’m aware it’s a mate bond, but human to animal physical connections don’t do it for me. Once he revealed his true self the book really took off and was great.

Overall it was a good read as Lawyer has a great imagination and a wonderful way with words.

Moonlit Kiss (A Venice Romance) (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Moonlit Kiss (A Venice Romance)Moonlit Kiss by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I found myself unable to put this book down as I was hooked from page one by the romantic and suspenseful storyline. Set in Italy the author really bought the cobbled streets and waterways of Venice to life with her detailed and descriptive narrative, and I felt as though I was there with the main characters. Artist and conservator Gianna Bellini leaves on the first flight to Italy when she gets her dream job in Venice, to restore and complete a century old fresco painting. She develops a relationship with a native Venetian, Sergio Vitale after he rescues her when she trips at a cafe by a canal. Gianna asks Sergio for his help in discovering the unfinished design when she finds a panel of the fresco painting is missing.

The longer Gianna is in Venice the stronger the feelings of familiarity that she’s been experiencing become and she starts to believe that she has been to Venice before but not in her lifetime. When she starts having vivid dreams and hear’s haunting whispers she’s even more convinced that she has a connection to the floating city and to the mystery of the unfinished fresco. Sergio is determined to help Gianna uncover the mystery and wants to ensure that they have a future together. I loved Gianna and Sergio as they were both very likeable and relatable characters. The chemistry between the couple and how their relationship developed was very natural and realistic. The storyline had the right mix of romance and suspense and the plot kept me gripped from start to finish. Although part of a series ‘Moonlit Kiss’ can happily be read as a standalone story and I definitely recommend this engaging read.

I’ll See You Again (Reigning Hearts, Book Four) AUDIO BOOK by KG Fletcher – Review by Michelle Collier 

 

My rating is 5 of 5

 

I’ll See You Again is my first book by KG Fetcher. So good! This is book four in the Reigning Hearts series. I didn’t feel like I had missed a thing, although I will be going back and reading the other 3! Nicky and Mac are just so amazing. You can feel the heat and attraction popping off the page. If the great writing wasn’t enough, KG Fletcher is the voice of the book as well. I love listening to audiobooks with a great Scottish accent!

Bound by Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops Series Book 2) by Amy McKinley – Review by Kristine Solano-Witucky

Bound by Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops, #2)Bound by Secrets by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bound by secrets is a page turner and worth more than 5 stars. I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely loved the story line. Kayla’s in a bad relationship having only one option… Run, she heads home and comes face to face with her past, Jaxon. Jaxon and Kayla are perfect for each other and are still so in love. Will the secrets of the past keep them apart or bring them back together stronger than before. The villain in the book was a twist I didn’t see coming and was shocked when it was revealed. I can’t wait to read the other books by Amy Mckinley.

Red Coat by Isobella Dunn – Review by Liz Vrchota

Red CoatRed Coat by Isobella Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I picked up Red Coat by Isobella Dunn for an afternoon in the sun by the pool. I was so engrossed in this book though that I quickly found myself with a bit of a sunburn and a book hangover. This was quite the enthralling read and I was completely taken away into Sara’s world. She made me want to reach in and hug her and Rachel several times. This book really was layered with elements of romance and mystery but also brought drama and coming of age in as well. I enjoyed the way Dunn balanced the heavy and made it feel as if you were able to enjoy it in any setting, like I said I enjoyed this by the pool but also could have found myself enjoying this under the blankets on a cold rainy day. I look forward to seeing what else might be available by Isobella Dunn and what may come next.

The DonThe Don by Hazel Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Vanessa, a young woman struggling with a sick younger brother, is awestruck when her new, sexy , Grey, neighbor moves in across the street. Unexplainably drawn to him, she also finds herself being courted by another man, Raef–who just happens to be Grey’s half brother. Grey promises to heal her brother but at what cost?

This story is a good, quick read. The characters are well developed, and the plot is fantastic. I really enjoyed the changing point of views throughout the chapters. Vanessa is a relatable female protagonist and I was rooting for her until the last page. I can’t wait to read the next installment in the Her Three Immortals series.5/5 stars

BRINK OF DENIAL (SONS OF SINDICATO BOOK 2) by SONYA JESUS AND CAM JOHNS – Review by Mrs R

Brink of Denial (Sons of Sindicato #1)Brink of Denial by Cam Johns
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

After reading Sons of Sindicato I had high hopes for this book, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to expectations.

I did not like Mila at all, and she didn’t grow on me throughout the book, in fact, I think I liked her less the more I read.

Mila and Dane grew up together, were extremely close and were expecting to stay together, but the way she blind sided him and abandoned everyone without any explanation just didn’t make sense. How could nobody know anything about it. The way she kept him hanging on for 11 years was disappointing. I really couldn’t understand how he would still be interested, especially after all the attention and problems she puts on the families. The only reason she came back was because she had to after everything came to light, not because she could no longer stay away from him. I just couldn’t see the love in the relationship, I’d was all about sex and control. I would have liked to have seen more tender moments, where it looks like they might actually care about each other.

What I did really enjoy were the conversations between Seth and Dane. I loved their relationship and the chats they had.

I enjoyed the sindicato storyline, there were lots of things going on to keep track of, but they also all interweaved with each other.

Sister Gia also came into her own a lot more in this book. She’s no longer the little girl being kept sheltered at home.

The ending was very unexpected and will create a ton of problems for the family going forward.

I’ll See You Again (Reigning Hearts, Book Four) AUDIO BOOK by KG Fletcher – Review by Kerry Baker

I’ll See You Again by K.G. Fletcher is a fantastic story that I was pulled into straight away. Nicky and Mac are just brilliant characters. They fit together so well from the start and I was really wanting them to find a way to make things work.

I thought it that narration on the book was good as well. I could feel the passion in the story telling and I could easily distinguish between each character. They were all given their own voice and it made it brilliant to listen to. This author has easily become one of my go to authors and I will definitely be adding her to the list for audio books too!

I’ll See You Again (Reigning Hearts, Book Four) AUDIO BOOK by KG Fletcher – Review by Bobbi Wagner

This is my first audio by this author and I was excited to pick it up. This is an author that I have read a ton of her books. This audio is just as great as her books. I enjoyed how the narrator brings the story to life. Her voice pulled me into the story from the start. They made me want to keep listening and wanting more. The characters are relatable and just brought the story to life. This is Nicky and Mac’s story. Nicky dreams of true love. Mac is a famous singer who is on the edge of stardom. Once he meets Nicky he is stricken with love instantly. What will happen when he invites her to his kickoff tour? When Nicky hits the headlines will it change things for them? This is a great romance audio that I highly recommend listening to.

Miss Understanding (The Miss Series Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Aubrey Bondurant – Review by LeeAnn Leonard

A riveting and romantic tale of the sassy Kendall and her contentious relationship with her lawyer boss. This story proves there is usually more to a person than they let on. Kendall discovered just that with a work trip she dreaded. I REALLY enjoyed this book to the point of getting nothing else done, because I didn’t want to turn it off!! I also really liked both narrators and the fact the book is written from both perspectives of the main characters. Very enjoyable way to spend 8 or 9 hours!

Turning Wheels (Satan's Devils MC, #1)Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series by Manda Mellett.

I’m already a fan of this author so I was really looking forward to starting a new series.
This book did not disappoint! The story had me hooked from the start, Sophie’s story is an emotional one and the author isn’t afraid to tackle difficult issues, although it is done with care, you can feel Sophie’s pain. There are a lot of raw emotions to process, and a few surprises along the way.
There is so much love and life throughout this story that the pages just kept turning and I read it in a day. The characters are already well developed and I’m looking forward to getting to know a few more of their stories.
A fantastic start to a new series!

BRINK OF DENIAL (SONS OF SINDICATO BOOK 2) by SONYA JESUS AND CAM JOHNS – Review by Karyn Taylor

Brink of Denial (Sons of Sindicato #1)Brink of Denial by Cam Johns
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brink of Denial is the first full length book in the Sons of Sindicato series and follows the prequel novella Sons of Sindicato. It is a dark and twisted Mafia romance by Sonya Jesus and Cam Johns. They are new authors to me with this series but I’m absolutely loving it so far and will definitely read more from them.
We first met Dane in the novella as he played quite a major part in his brother Seth’s story. We are also given a bit of the background of Dane and Mila in the novella. In saying that, you could read this book without having read the novella as the author’s do a fantastic job of making sure all necessary information is included for you to fully understand this story.
I absolutely loved Dane and Mila’s story. It’s a classic second chance romance with the added bonus of it having a mafia setting. Having been sweethearts since childhood, Dane was gutted when Mila left to pursue her modelling career just as he was about to propose to her. Now she’s back and she wants Dane back but although he is still in love with her, he’s not willing to let her break his heart a second time.
The characters are very well written and at times you love Dane and at times you want to slap him for being so cruel to Mila. The story is gripping and the added Mafia family feuding makes this a definite page turner that will make you drop an ‘F’ bomb when the authors take the story in a direction you will not see coming.
A definite 5 star read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holy..Holy Smoke! This story just blew me away and left me wanting more! It’s a total mind-blowing story. I couldn’t put this down and when I did I couldn’t wait to get back to it. Just to find out what would happen. My emotions have been all over the place.

The characters just held me enthralled and I became immersed in their world. I go from loving them to wanting to smack them on the back of the head….saying idiot! I enjoyed their depth, emotions and honor. I love the mafia element. It makes some things expected but others are complete shocks. I loved getting to know these characters. I don’t have a favorite because Mila and Dane are hoth wonderful. Gia…well I wonder about her. Seems she was going to do something but then the idea just dropped off the face of the earth never mentioned again. I mean they were busy but a slight mention would have been good. Maybe at the party Dane could have cornered her at the beginning.

I did have some problems with Chapter 22. I felt some parts were missing and even backtracked thinking I could find it. Mila went to talk to Dane but never did because someone else was there and a distraction occurred. So in Chap 22 Dane is talking like he knows all everything…I mean everything that she was supposed to tell him plus a bit about Nico. I felt like I missed the telling or it was assumed that she told him?

Overall this is much improved from the first of the series. This has more depth to the story as well as the characters. There are references and some of this story takes place at the same time as book 1/prequel in here so for less confusion it is helpful to read that. I do Love this story and can’t wait for more!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I definitely got some Fifty Shades of Gray vibes from this book. BUT it is also different Kristina is a much more complex character with some depth and layers.
Alexander is yummmmm with a capital YUM.

What I loved most about this is that Kristina isn’t the sweet innocent character you would expect, she also has a complicated past.

My only critique is that I struggled with the female narrator’s voice when she did the other characters. But it doesn’t take anything away from the story.

Miss Understanding

The Miss Series

Book 1 

AUDIO BOOK 

By Aubrey Bondurant 

☆☆☆☆☆

This story is a great beginning to the Miss Series. Full length and filled with a building romance or the best enemy to friends story. This story is not for those under 18, due to steamy adult behavior.

Kendall Tate has the worst job and equally awful boss. Problem is he is not only good looking, but sexy too. If she is not careful she may get fired much sooner than she wants. Thrown into a trip with her boss could be just what will push her out the door. Liam Davenport struggles with the beauty behind the eyes of his assistant. He must stay away, no matter how far he is. The smell of her strawberry lip gloss draws him closer. What will become of these two people, while away from  the office for a week? Will Kendall and Liam be drawn together, or will one of them walk?

 

Aubrey Bondurant has written this non stop page turner. I will forever remember this story, and her characters. Many feels will play out in this story. As you board the rollercoaster of emotions. This is just the beginning of this series, and I can’t wait for book 2. Well Done Aubrey Bondurant!  Well Done!

BRINK OF DENIAL
A Dark Mafia Romance
Sons of Sindicato
Book 2
By Sonya Jesus
& Cam Johns
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a full length novel. Within you will find suspense, romance and second chances. Please note this story is not for those under the age of 18. Welcome to this mafia story.

Mila has always wanted more. She had it all but something else was wanted. As a popular and beautiful model, she gave up everything. Taking a chance, she moved on, out of the Mafia family, away from her first and only love. Changed her name even, but after years of modeling, she needed more. That meant going back to her roots. Starting over and stopping the nightmare that is blackmailing her.
Dane lost his first love when Mila left. He was heartbroken to say the least. Every time she came home to visit, his heart got broken a little more. Now she needs his help and just maybe he won’t be there. Second chances are hard work, can Mila and Dane pick up what was left behind? Can Dane let down his guard and help Mila?

Sonya Jesus and Cam Johns have written this high intense Mafia story. Once I started reading this story, I could not put it down. There was never a safe place to stop reading. Therefore the world around me stopped until I finished. Mila and Dane are both strong and independent, but stubborn to a fault. That is what got me hooked. Enjoy this rollercoaster of emotions and second chances. I am so excited and hope the next book comes quickly. Well done Ladies! Well Done!

Dirty Tactics (Special Weapons & Tactics Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Peyton Banks – Review by Kayla Octaviano

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Listen to this book! I was hooked from the beginning! S.W.A.T. Sergeant Marcus MacArthur is as hot as it gets. You love a man in uniform? LISTEN TO THIS BOOK! He’s a badass, and he knows it too. So, of course, he draws the attention of his new neighbor Sarena, a nurse in the emergency room at the hospital. They both work funky hours, they both work adrenaline filled jobs, I’ve never seen a couple more made for each other. But there are downfalls to these careers they’ve picked, and this book shows those very clearly. Can they make it through these dilemmas? Or will they die trying? If you like well written books narrated by people who bring the characters to life, listen to this book. If you like steamy romance scenes that you’ll want to listen to again, listen to this book. If you like twists and action, listen to this book. Basically, listen to this book. It’s amazing and worth the time.

Brink of Denial (Sons of Sindicato #1)Brink of Denial by Cam Johns
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Sons of Sindicato series and just like the first it’s about loyalty, being true to who you are, and being with the right person even if that love takes a long time. The love in this one sure does take a long time and honestly, there were moments where I genuinely felt like pulling out my hair at the dopiness of some of the characters. Still, it’s well written and an interesting read.
Mila Blanc has left behind her old life and old love to pursue bright lights and fame, but n the quiet she finds herself pining for all that she had left behind, especially Dane Giordano. He meanwhile has not been able to get Mila out of his system and slowly that has festered into something that looks a little bit like bitterness and hate. When Mila returns, determined to gain back everything that she rejected before, Dane is determined that she will prove herself and he doesn’t make it easy. But Mila isn’t a pushover either.
It’s an interesting read, well written in a way that gets your right in the feels. Even if the feels are frustration at the complete obliviousness of the characters. Still, it’s well worth a read and for anyone that loves hot and steamy sexual tension then this is the book for you.

Holy hotness! Dane is raging heat and Mila just cannot give it up no matter how hard she wants too. As children of the Sindicato, they grew up together. Mila wanted to get out and left for a chance at a modeling career…the night before Dane wanted to propose. Heartbreak city! Fast forward to 11 years later…drama, lingering love, family secrets and you have an explosive love story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Once I started this one, I just couldn’t put it down. The action sucks you in and you just can’t get out. The plot keeps you engaged. The characters are so well-written you can feel the moods and the emotions. I love this series.

Well, this was a hot one!! I should have guessed from the cover but even so! I loved every second of this book and I am so excited to read the rest of the series! It was definitely a quick read for me because once I started I couldn’t out it down. This is definitely up there with my favourite reads of 2021! Vanessa was a great lead character to read about, I really liked her. The three leading men in the story were definitely enjoyable as well!! All of them were very different but all had this pull to Vanessa. I haven’t quite decided who my favourite might be yet! I liked the cliff-hanger and it definitely has me wanting more!!

The Don is a highly recommended read from me!!

I wasn’t sure what I was going to reading when I picked up this book, the synopsis didn’t give too much away and the author is new to me – but I like to step out of my comfort zone at times so I thought I would give it a go and I really wasn’t disappointed at all. The story had so many different layers to it and I thought I would have found it confusing but the author did an amazing job with it. The characters were really interesting to read about and my heartstrings were definitely pulled a few times throughout. I did find myself invested in the characters, their lives and stories and it had this real feel about it. It was definitely surprise read for me and one I would absolutely recommend!

In His Kiss was a great read and I really enjoyed it. The authors writing was engaging, easy to read and the storyline was good. I liked that characters, Jordan and Xia, and I think because their story spanned a long time in their lives, I really felt like I understood how they felt about each other. It wasn’t straight forward, there were some complexities to it but I couldn’t help myself from rooting for them. I could really feel the inner turmoil of both of them when it came to what would happen if they crossed the line and it ruined their strong friendship forever.

I am really looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future. @katie

The Don (Her Three Immortals Book 1) by Hazel Storm – Review by Pippa Woods

The DonThe Don by Hazel Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was my first Hazel Storm novel and my first novel based on Greek Mythology, needless to say, I am hooked on both! While it has 220 pages, The Don felt like a shorter story in all the best ways! When it comes to the character development, plot speed, and world-building, Storm dives straight in to give you an immediately vivid experience from the first page. The story has a quick but well-developed arch that keeps moving without feeling rushed at all and the perfect amount of steam to keep you wanting more. My only head-scratcher came when Raef explained gods to Van, she asked a legitimate question and was given an honest answer, but it didn’t shock her in the least…which it should have unless gods are an accepted part of society in her world…but they weren’t to my knowledge. So that made me wonder, but I decided maybe gods weren’t a complete unknown and went with it. Overall, it is a great quick read, and I CAN NOT wait to read The God, The Bow, and The Box!!
For The Don, Van is my favorite character, she seems real, relatable, genuine, and has some snarky internal dialogue. She is full of love for her family and has a huge heart towards all her salon’s clients, but more than that she is just a genuinely good person that you want to succeed in life. But this is where Storm decided to have some fun! A beautiful heroine with a heart of gold meets three half-brothers who shake up her life completely. The Don of the Underworld, an Angel, and a demi-god of Earth oh my! Grey is sexy, intriguing, and frustrating, Raef is thoughtful, handsome, a true gentleman, and we don’t know a lot about Aroz yet, but a little fat baby cupid has nothing on this tall drink of water! Like I already said, I cannot wait to read The God next because I have to find out what happens between Van and her men! (FYI: So far this is not a menage’ book or even really a reverse harem or really a love triangle…I’m not sure what it is exactly…but I’m loving it!!)

Red Coat by Isobella Dunn- Review by Stephanie Driskill

Red CoatRed Coat by Isobella Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Red Coat by Isobella Dunn is a cute little romance story with a bit of mystery thrown in to add some intrigue to the story. Sara, our main character is a teenage runaway and has been bounced from foster home to foster home. We get to follow along with her as she is an adult and now must face her own delinquent case and help Rachael overcome her fears of the foster system as well. But wait, a curveball has been thrown at Sara when she returns to Victory to reclaim her delinquent. Red Coat is a great read with Sara the main character being so easy to identify and empathize with. The few detours away from the romance into the intrigue are beautifully written and provide a relief from the typical romance genre. The intimate scenes are loving, tender, and heart warming written in such a way that the love the characters have for each other jumps off the page and into your heart. What a great read and I highly recommend following this author for more incredible stories. Fun and easy to read, Red Coat is perfect for a quiet afternoon by the pool, or a night wrapped up in a blanket by the fireplace. You will not be disappointed!!

Lost

All my life, it seems, I’ve made mistakes. Once, I lost everything. Failure seems to follow me around.

I didn’t spot what a snake Snake was—he had planned a mutiny right under my nose. Yeah, he did well when he appointed me as his VP. I followed him blindly, never suspecting a thing.

Now Snake is dead and I’m the prez. I still spend my days doubting myself, but I’ve got the whole MC depending on me. If I get it wrong, it won’t just be me who goes down.

Then I meet her, a woman who needs me to keep her safe. I should warn her to stay far away, tell her I’m not a man she should lean on. I’m not a person to trust when I don’t have faith in myself.

Patsy

Choices, always choices. I thought I did right when I left everything behind to make a new life, choosing which of my two adult children now needed me the most.

We should have been safe in our new life—nobody knew who we were.

But we’ve been found.

Luckily, before danger strikes, the Satan’s Devils ride up to our door.

I’m no spring chicken. I’m not looking for a man in my life. But I need protection, I need help. It’s time to make a stand and not run anymore.

There’s only one man I can depend on to keep us safe. The trouble is, he’s Lost.

Manda’s life’s always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she’s still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman?

There isn’t enough space to list everything that’s happened to Manda, or what she’s learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she’s met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected.

Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area’s claim to fame being the Wilkin’s Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter.

Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.

I’ll See You Again (Reigning Hearts, Book Four) AUDIOBOOK by KG Fletcher. I love KG Fletcher’s rock-star romance because I appreciate sizzling opposites-attract stories and heart-wrenching sentiments.

But her world is turned upside down when a famous Scottish musician shows her the kind of love she’s ever imagined. Except, just as their hearts begin to beat in time, she receives dreadful news and finds herself in the news. Reid Macpherson, on the verge of glory, devotes his entire being to his band. But the last thing he anticipated when he went to a small-town pub to practice his new song was to fall in love with a stunning local who had no idea who he was.

When he discovers he has affection for her, he invites her to the start of his first global tour in New York City. However, Nicky’s emotions are running high after hearing the sad news that has reached the airways, and she believes Mac will abandon her and return to Scotland for good. And Mac is concerned about Nicky, who has been left behind; his voice will be muted forever, their love reduced to a lingering line in one of his popular songs.
