Miss Understanding (The Miss Series Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Aubrey Bondurant – Review by Heather Lovelace

Four stars

I love this author’s writing and somehow hadn’t picked this book up yet to read. When I saw it available to listen, I took the opportunity to snatch it up and enjoy a beloved author in a new way. Bondurant always does a beautiful job crafting a compelling and emotional contemporary romance. Listening to Royce and Rourke narrate this selection added a beautiful depth to the experience. I truly enjoyed listening to this book and look forward to reading/listening to more from this author.

Blue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor – Review by Carly Vogler

Blue Summer Part TwoBlue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Blue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor is the second story in the series and is not meant to be a stand alone story.

First of all, I think the synopsis is adorable and I loved the go big or go home statement! Everly has written Lillie as a wonderful character and someone I would either love to be, or at least hang out with! I was worried the second story wouldn’t be as good as the first, but it truly exceeded expectations.

When Lillie finds herself in a similar position, can she and the Zayed find a way out, or are they all spiraling towards disaster?

Hell Hath No Fury (Life Is Hell Book 2) by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Lorralei Hoerner

Hell Hath No Fury (Life is Hell #2)Hell Hath No Fury by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yes!!! This book was fantastic. After reading book 1 I could not wait to read the 2nd book to this series, and boy it did NOT disappoint. I am loving the hot vibe between Millicent and Sheridan. Book 2 has Millicent being “stalked” by a hellhound and no doubt a creepy doll. Can I just say, nope no way when it comes to creepy dolls! We learn the reason why Millicent is being stalked and who is behind this mystery. I also love that we still have other characters in this book and you also meet Sheridan’s parents. I am ALL about this series with demons, witches, a nix, shifters, a fallen angel and we eventually get to meet a fairy. So looking forward to starting book 3!

Courage of Us (Code of Honor Book 1) by Brooke May – Review by Sophie Rae

Courage of UsCourage of Us by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is it.
This book is EVERYTHING- fight with someone else. This book covers literally everything I didn’t know I loved. The romance was there – it wasn’t too much or not enough it was perfect. The smut was also present, also in a perfect way. This writer has a full handle on how to write superb books & I am THIRSTY for the next books. I honestly think this might be an all time favorite in my romance category!
– disclaimer: please research trigger warnings following this book : there are a couple of different scenes that would be rather unsettling (not super overwhelming personally but could see other women from some themes being uncomfortable.
Patience and Duke go from a drunken hook up and total “I love you” confession after graduating high school – to Patience waking up by herself with no sign of Duke. As the day went on, Patience had discovered Duke had enlisted to the Marines and wasn’t coming back, she was forced to move on. After quite a few long years (a marriage, a child, Patience finding her live goals)- Duke moved back into their small town for good. Could the stars have aligned themselves any better just in time for Patience to get a hold on her very unhappy life. We watch and anticipate Patience divorcing her awful “husband” Greg, while literally BEGGING her to fall for Duke all over again. Upon discovering that they of course are ultimately still head over heels in love with each other; they both have to expose their baggage. Can they forgive the past and move on? Can Duke handle the secret that Patience had kept from him for all these years? Can Patience handle the twists and terms to come as we learn the real reason why Duke ended up coming home from his Marine career? Oh – did you think that was it? NOPE. Brooke May throws the worst cliffhanger of all cliffhangers I’ve ever read – I need the rest of the books ASAP.
– disclaimer 2: this is a book you will not be able to put down – I not only finished it in one sitting. But I also stayed up until 3am because I absolutely could not put it down.

Miss Understanding (The Miss Series Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Aubrey Bondurant – Review by Heidi Schoolman

This is an audio book and is the first book in The Miss Series and is just under 9 hours.  This is narrated by Ariel Royce and Christopher Rourke.  This story follows Liam and Kendall.  Liam is Kendall’s boss and she finds him exasperating and he finds her irresistible.  But Liam has childhood issues and does not really want a relationship but there is just something about her.  I found Liam to be kind of a jerk, but as you dive deeper into the story, you soon find out why.  And Kendall and her inappropriate thoughts about her boss – what can I say?  I think we have all been there!

Dirty Kisses and Conflicting Wishes (Kiss Me Series Book 1) by Danielle Jacks. This was such a fun read, in fact once I started it I didn’t want to put it down. Its the story of Zoe who is living on her own and had a successful job and great boyfriend but when she loses them both, how is she going to tell her family. She doesn’t want them to think she can’t make it on her own so she makes up a story about her brothers ex best friend being her new boyfriend.

Damien wanted to be a popular actor in London but has ended up having to be a stripper just to make ends meet. When he runs into Zoe, that snake in the grass ex best friends sister, he thinks its just perfect to get back at him. As the charade goes on they end up telling their families they are engaged and introduce each other to their families as such. The only problem is, there might actually be feelings getting involved. How in the world did Zoe let this craziness happen. Read this fun contemporary romance to find out what happens.

Wild Vamp: Jaded Vamp Series Book 2Wild Vamp: Jaded Vamp Series Book 2 by L.D. Wosar
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Jaded Vamp books. I was captivated by the cover of this book. The plotline has a fast pace to it. I found myself flipping the pages faster and faster to get to the end of the book. The characters are unique and complex. It is a vampire romance that includes vampires and vampire/Lycan hybrids. Kaysee is trying to extinguish the hybrids and is having issues completing the task. Her husband, Dominic, was abducted throughout her mission. Will Kaysee be able to complete her mission? Will she find her husband? I highly recommend this book as well as the first book. I cannot wait to see what other books L.D. Wosar has written as I am intrigued by this story.

Miss Understanding (The Miss Series Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Aubrey Bondurant – Review by Kerry Baker

Miss Understanding Audio Book by Aubrey Bondurant is the first book in the Miss Series. This is fantastically entertaining book that had everything you could want. I thought the heroine was so amusing. Her inner musings had me smiling to myself on plenty of occasions.

Although entertaining, I liked that the story had a deeper side to it. There was a depth to it that I didn’t quite expect when I started listening to it. I was drawn in completely and kept finding excuses to start listening to the book again. I thought that the two narrators did a great job of creating a vivid picture. It felt like they each captured the essence of the character and brought them to life.

I really enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to listen to more!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

I did not read the first book and I didn’t feel as if I was missing too much information, but I wish I would have read it first. The second book is easy to follow along and I was quick to get pulled into the story. Kaysee is a badass vampire, everyone in her group seems to like her and feel they wouldn’t really be together if it weren’t for her. Her husband Dominic, from the way he acts to how the others describe him, seems like a really douche bag. It seems he can’t functionally rule over his people any longer but is stubborn and won’t take help from a woman, his wife. The fact that Kaysee has been faithful to him for all the years they have been together hurts me when I found out of Dominics infidelities, especially since he lies every time that he won’t do it again. When he comes face to face with his maker, Claudia, again, nothing good comes of this meeting and Kaysee is in the dark about what goes down between the two. I hope when she finds out she leaves him for good, and I hope in the next book to see Claudia taken down. I highly recommend for any paranormal romance lover! Bring on the next book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Red Coat Isabella Dunn is an easy but engaging story that really does tug at the heartstrings. For me this book is entirely about the characters. They are so relatable that I became invested in them immediately and really connected with their story.
I figured this book would be pretty emotional while reading it but I didn’t quite expect to be taken on such a journey. It really felt like I experienced the highs and lows with the characters. This is a fantastic book that I thoroughly enjoyed.
I would highly recommend it.

Excellent! I need the next book now! The story is something new and different that I haven’t seen before. Sweet Vanessa is beautiful inside and out and is like an angel on earth, so to know she is struggling trying to fight for her brother’s condition, and seeing all she has to put up with at her job just hurts my heart. I’m in love with Raef, he fell in love so hard, so fast and will do anything for Vanessa, Grey on the other hand, knows he feels something for Vanessa but doesn’t really show it on the outside except in the form of small instances where he protected her in his own way. Vanessa makes a decision that she thinks is the best option but did not discuss it with her mom or Raef, and the way they both reacted made my heart melt. I seriously can’t wait for the next book to see what happens in Vanessa’s journey and to see what will come of her relationship with the boys.

Like Part one it has the same vibe as an adult version of the smurfs, It’s entertaining and captivating. It picks up straight from the end of Part one.

Miss Understanding (The Miss Series Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by Aubrey Bondurant – Review by Bobbi Wagner

I enjoyed this romance audio book.  This is an enemies to lovers story which is well developed.  The narrator brings the characters to life with each word and they are so great together.  Liam and Kendall are great, strong characters that are connectable and made the story for me.  I enjoyed listening to their story and their growth throughout the story.  The narrator made the story fun and entertaining to listen to.  I am happy I picked this audio up and it made my drive to work a little more enjoyable.  I highly recommend this audiobook.

This is the second part to the book Blue Summer which is just as great as the first book. I highly suggest reading the first book before this one to help your enjoyment of this series. This is a well written story that is a continuation of the first book. The characters are even better in this book and made the story pop. This is a shorter story that really packs the action. With Lillie being kidnapped a second time the sorcerer is out for more power than ever. Thinking that she knows more than what she is saying, will this put her in more danger and will she be able to save herself this time? This was a fun and entertaining book to read. The characters made the story come to life on every page. It is a fast paced story that you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book.

The Hunter’s Heart (Love After Earth Book 1) by Astrid Sharpe – Review by Kerry Carr

The Hunter's Heart (Love After Earth, #1)The Hunter’s Heart by Astrid Sharpe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow I really enjoyed this book. I loved the mixture of sci-fi, Romance and adventure. Astrid Sharpe has done an amazing job of creating not only the  characters but also the world they are in. Both the lead characters Zensah and Poppy are strong willed and they compliment each other beautifully. You can feel every emotion the characters are going through from Poppy’s anger and fear to Zensah’s passion and restraint on his feelings.

Zensah is the leader of his tribe. When his tribe is wiped out he is hoping to be able to rebuild to stop his people going extinct. Imagine his joy when another tribe tells him of settlers who are willing to join his tribe.

Poppy is one of these ‘settlers  and a very unwilling one at that. After being kidnapped her and the other humans need to escape.
When Zensah realises that the women are victims he and his hunters vow  to help and care for these women.
And this is where the fun begins. The attraction between Zensah and Poppy is pretty instant but Poppy is determined to be an independent woman. With Zensah help she wants to learn how to live in his world on her own and not rely on him. As they spend more time together will they give in to their attraction? Could Poppy be the mate Zensah has been waiting for all along? Or will Poppy just think he’s after someone to mate to increase his tribe?

This is my first time reading/listening to anything by this author and I really enjoyed the story. Although I started with book 2 in the series I wasn’t lost or confused by anything that was happening. I really liked the narration; it was easy and pleasant to listen to. There was quite a lot of action in the story which made it really exciting to listen to at times. I liked the characters and thought that they were well developed. I would definitely like to listen to the first book in the series and absolutely more from this author again in the future,

I love this author and have read many of her books so when I saw this pop as an audio book I couldn’t wait to settle down and listen and I absolutely LOVED it! The story was as I expected from this author – she creates amazing characters. I loved Kendall – she certainly held her own against Liam and Liam – oh I know I shouldn’t have but I loved him straight away – who doesn’t love an arrogant but sexy as anything boss?!? Their story was brilliant, some great banter between them! The one thing I loved about this audio book was the use of dual narration, I’ve not listened to one like this before and it worked really well.

This is definitely a series I cannot wait for more from!

Hell Hath No Fury (Life is Hell #2)Hell Hath No Fury by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found this paranormal romance both enjoyable and engaging and having read and enjoyed the previous book in the series I was not disappointed. This story focuses on hedonism demon Sheridan falling in love for the first time with Millicent who is a human and who has no idea about the paranormal world around her. To complicate things further for Sheridan, Millicent also has a secret admirer. Deputy Sheriff Millicent can’t deny the mutual attraction between her and Sheridan but then when a secret admirer starts leaving strange gifts which turn out to be magical Millicent gets distracted. Once the admirers intentions are revealed however, Sheridan worries that his involvement may get Millicent killed. The authors wonderfully detailed world building made me feel, yet again immersed in the story and the plot twists kept me hooked from start to finish. The characters are all likeable and have fascinating backstories which adds to the story. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

I have really enjoyed this series and I was really looking forward to reading this the fifth book and I wasn’t disappointed. It had the wonderful characters I expected and the exciting storyline I have come to love from these books. I really like the authors writing, I find the stories easy to read and the pace and flow is excellent – I’m engaged the whole way through. For me, I feel like this is my favourite book from the series, I had such a connection with Eleanor, she was so relatable to me, I felt like I really empathised with the her and the things she went through. I really liked Wes too and I’ve been waiting for his story to pop up!
Overall a wonderful story with great characters! A definite must read!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a good story. I wasn’t expecting “that” person as a love interest for Sheridan. That was a surprise. I liked the thought and idea of the story but it was a bit slow at times. It really focused a lot on the thoughts and feelings of a certain character. Sometimes it was her daily life and a lot of trivial stuff and then a nap would happen. But it really picked up the pace towards the end.

I really enjoyed some of the newer characters and some insight into existing characters. I did not feel a connection to either MC. I did not dislike them at all but did not live them either. I love how their “crew” is getting bigger and better with each book. Those added characters towards the end should be wonderful if they show up in upcoming books.

Blue Summer Part TwoBlue Summer Part Two by Everly Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had recently read the first in this amazing series. First off I love that this series is so orginal! Its not what you expect and your truly in for a great adventure. If an anuthor can captivate thie readers, as this wonderful author does, you know hands down the book is going to be beyond amazing!

In the second book in the series we go more down learning about Lillie and her relationship with the people she met whom are called The Zayed. I love learning about the Zayed. Its a culture defined in the novels like no other. You could give me a whole novel learning about them and Id be more than interested.

Not only do you see the Zayed change though out the book but you also see Lilie. Not only in mind and heart does she progress from whom she was in the first novel but with her powsers as well! And that to me was super awesome by far. But with everything comes a price..the more she grew profiecent with her powers more she was put in danger, as well as the Zayed I would say, by the sorcerer. But as I read on Lilli is not someone who needs saving or a danzel in disttress. She becomes quite brillant with her powers. In the sense of you wouldnt want to anger her, now would you?

But I also was suprised to learn the sorcereer himself was not the only one to grow some certain powsers which made him more of an even more interesting character or a villan I should say.

As I read on you learn of how much Lillie’s fondness for the Zayed and to me it really shown from the first novel to where she was now how much the Zayed have come to be not just a part of her life, but people she would risk everyting for, even if it meant her own life. She truly loved them in the way she showed how much she cared and knew she had to save them from what was to come in this novel.

I love this series. If your looking for a quick read where you stay up at night to finish bcause the pace really flys, this is a novel for you! I love the romance, suspsense, and the drama scenarios put into this.I really enjoyed this one, I actually think I might have been more in deep with love love for this novel by a bit more than the first!

This author truly has a gift and their amazing! I would say read these in order. It helps to understand Lillie and The Zayed very much. Trust me, it ll make sense if yo u read it in order 🙂

Again, loved this novel. Im so glad so far I have gotton two beautiful about The Zayed and the adventures they face with Lillie and those around them!

Again, Phenomenal work on this beauitul novel Everly Taylor 🙂

What a wonderfully quick treat to read! Millicent is a town deputy who has no idea that there are paranormal creatures in her town (and they are her friends)…Through a series of magical stalker events, Millie finds out she has some amazing friends and that Sheridan may even be something more. Missing persons, dhampirs to (truly) mother-in-law from hell, you will love the plot of this mystery. My favorite characters were Millie and Sheridan because they were struggling with life issues that were so very relatable. Though not just a comedy, this is a story you just have to read.

5-stars

This was another phenomenal read by this talented author! Just like the first book I completely devoured this one, I ended up reading it in one sitting as I couldn’t bring myself to put it down!

This author once again took me on a roller coaster ride with the non-stop action, steamy moments, and mystery. I loved every second of this book and wouldn’t change a thing about it. I loved the characters, all of the detail, from big things to small everything was intricately detailed leaving nothing to the imagination which I loved!

This cannot be read as a standalone so I would suggest reading Blue Summer Part One first before diving into this one. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next paranormal read, it’s a story you won’t want to miss!

Moonlit Whisper (An Irish Romance)Moonlit Whisper by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Amy brings her page-turning intrigue to this story, and I think that she is becoming one of my favorite authors, and not just because we share the same first name! As soon as you start reading this novel, you’re drawn to the characters surroundings, and can even hear the accent in their voices as you read. Full immersed in this love story, I fell in love with the main characters and their inner turmoil. I was saddened by how quickly their story wrapped up, but that’s also because I sat down and read the entirety within the course of a few hours. I laughed, was angered, and my curiosity was peaked from the very first chapter. The only thing I wish was that it dug deeper into Connor and his time in the US. I cannot wait to read more by this author and look forward to my next adventure written by her. Would definitely recommend this author to any family/friend looking for a new author to be obsessed with!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a beautifully written love story based on the lives of two souls burdened with misfortune and unfortunate circumstances. From the very start of their love story, I was entranced. I couldn’t stop reading, wanting to know more. I especially loved the way that you are introduced to the two main characters, but you don’t really learn much about them, until they start to learn and discover more about each other. I knew that there would be a twist somewhere, but it still shocked me when everything started happening. Amy McKinley does a phenomenal job capturing the reader and keeping them interested until the very end. Very well done, I personally read the entirety of their love story within the course of an afternoon. It left me wanting more from this gifted author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a new author for me but I am a fan of the dark mafia romantic genre so I thought I would give it a read. I’m glad that I did. It’s a good story. I will admit that it did take me a couple of chapters to really get into but once I did I found it hard to stop reading. This author did a fabulous job with her characters and making me despise them yet root them on at the same time. She has an ability to leave the reader holding a grudge due to all the events that take place, but you also feel like you can understand the reasoning behind what they are doing. I did have some issues with the main characters relationship not feeling real but that subsided the more I read into their complexities. I look forward to reading a follow-up to this book.

Mountains Wanted (Mountains #1)Mountains Wanted by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mountains Wanted is the first book in the Mountains series by Phoebe Alexander. It is a unique story that really gets your feelings going. I will say it has some themes that are not usually my cup of tea, but it was well written and kept me wanting more.

Sarah is a professor at the University of Maryland (UMD). She teaches Sociology and in turn studies some pretty unique topics that she also practices in her own life. As a single mom, life isn’t always easy, but somehow she manages to get through each day.

James is in charge of the ROTC program at UMD and meets Sarah at a lecture she gives on evening at the University.

Sarah and James hit it off, obvious chemistry between them, but with life and personalities as they are, will they get in the way?

The insecurities the characters have in this novel are so real. It makes for a very realistic read! I appreciate being able to venture out of my own norm. If you are looking for an interesting and unique read, this novel is for you!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sexy Drug, (Losing my Heart book 1) is the first book I have read by Melody Calder and I am so happy it is part of a series because it will not be my last! I loved that the storyline was fast paced from the first to last page and it had everything I look for in a romantic read- suspense, excitement and an element of danger. I had really hoped to connect with Katie as the story progressed but I much preferred Ramone. Admittedly, I don’t like many main female characters in the “romance” genre BUT there is something lovable about a tough guy with a soft spot. Overall, I think the best part of Sexy Drug was Melody Cader’s attention to detail, from the very first page I was impressed with the way she could describe something like pavement with such detail without making the storyline feel heavy or bogged down. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
