Sleeping Angel is a paranormal romance that puts a unique spin on seeing ghosts. Scott from the first book is more of a minor character than he was in the first book but he still plays an important part. Angel and Logan are the main characters in this book. Angel and Logan go through a love-hate relationship throughout the story. The book is interesting in its paranormal aspects while also having some heart-wrenching moments when it comes to Logan’s Sister. There were many twists and turns throughout the story that kept me invested and intrigued while reading
With Book One ending with Lillie being kidnapped for the second time, I had to immediately seek out this book to continue this fun and steamy story. The evil sorcerer wants more power and will do whatever he needs to get it. He still thinks Lillie knows more than she is telling, can she save herself a second time? The Zayed are in imminent danger and she needs to get back to them and the life that she has found. She has finally found where she belongs!! I think that is something that we all look for in this life, somewhere to belong, I could relate very well to this.

The Earl’s Scandalous Wager by Wareeze Woodson – Review by Jamie Zabolotney
I am a huge fan of historical romance and this book hit the spot. Historical romance meets murder mystery! The whole book will keep you guessing as to what will happen next. I really enjoyed the characters in this novel. Emily, the leading lady is put up in a game of chance by her guardian/step brother. Enter the Earl of Lenbridge, who wins her and marries her that night.
Through everything, Emily is able to keep her cool and outwardly seem unfazed despite accidents happening, a spurned ex-fiancee and murders.
This was a new author to me, but that I have heard good things about. The cover of this made me think of Jacob Black from the Twilight series so I figured that I would like it. And I wasn’t disappointed. I found myself pulled in from the very beginning of the book and couldn’t put it down. The author did an amazing job with her attention to details in both the characters and the stories. I felt like I was watching this happen before my own eyes. Those are the books that I really like. The way she was writing about the characters made me feel as though I knew them personally. Or at least wanted to. It truly is a great read and I do highly recommend it. Especially if you are into the paranormal genre that leaves you crying, laughing, and just wanting to live their lives.
Kissing Scars tells the tragic love story of Sanaya and Leo. Unexpectedly falling in love with one another, Sanaya and Leo seem like the perfect match–until Leo tells Sanaya he has no desire to have more children. 48, divorced, and with 3 teenagers, Leo is looking forward to his new life. Sanaya, however, is young, looking for her future husband, and wants to be a mother. What will happen when their worlds collide? A well written, short romantic novella, Kissing Scars is a must read for romance fans. One of the best parts of the story is the raw, real dialogue between the characters. The author paints a vivid picture of both character and environment.

Twisted Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops #1) By Amy McKinley is a brilliant read from start to finish. I was captivated and held on the edge of my seat the whole time. I had my suspicions about one particular character but the amazing Ms McKinley had me double guessing myself the whole time. Nothing in this suspense filled, drama packed novel is what you will expect.
In Twisted Secrets we meet the beautiful but tormented Riley and super gorgeous Navy Seal Xander. You will instantly fall in love with these wonderful characters who are full of heart and depth. You will become engrossed in their story and won’t want to put the book down.
Ms McKinley and her Deadly Isles Special Ops series definitely has a new fan in me. do yourself a huge favour and read it!

“Cursed Whispers” is a multifaceted book. It touches on various issues that are personal to a large part of the population. This book took my feelings on a rollercoaster ride. Max is a vet with magical communication skills. Claudia has been to hell and back, and needs to return again. The story focuses on two very different families who have been through so much, but still drop everything to help one another. Read this book if you like drama, support, strength, and love. I promise it will be worth it.

This is the second book in the trilogy, loved learning more about Scott and Zelda. I fell in love with Logan, he is so distraught. Learning about the torture he has put himself through since his deaf/mute sister passed. I feel like in these times we all have a special person in our lives that we try to protect at all costs. Angel comes to new understandings about herself as she wakes up in someone else’s body with her own memories. Am really loving this author!!

This is the second book I have read by this author. Very different from the first but still amazing!! A man who can see ghosts…..and a ghost who doesn’t remember her past, not even her name. I love that the geekiness shows through as he calls her Zelda, as she didn’t like getting called ghost bride.. They have so many hurdles to finding out who this woman is, and why she can’t remember anything. Scott was a very endearing character as he struggled to come to terms with his “gift”.
This book was VERY HOT!! Sheldon and Alexis had an amazing attraction to each other that you wanted them to indulge in. It was a great suspense with plenty of turns to keep you turning the pages. Lots of suspense, drama, and action. Sheldon and his team were real professionals, but I loved how she pulled the dom in him out despite how much he tried to stay focused on the job of protecting her. Definitely a great read. Totally recommend!

Elusive: Billionaire Mafia Romance is book five in the Billionaire Bodyguards series. Yet again was wowed by another great read from the author. Such an amazing read and incredible addition to the series. The story may be read as a stand alone but I do recommend that you read each story and in order too. They are all such great reads. Each story does focus on a different couple but there worlds are intertwined together. Prepare yourself for an entertaining romantic suspenseful story packed with mystery, a little sizzle, lust, and drama. Loved it from the very beginning and until the very end. Can’t wait to see what the series has in store for me next!

Antipodes is a YA dystopian novel that has an interesting plot about building a sustainable and a civilized society post an epidemic. It is around an apocalyptic event around a disease that threatens all life on Earth. We can relate to this story in the context of the current pandemic situation we have in this world. Cam Mackintosh is in his last year studying at Melbourne University , he is offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help construct a brand new society on an island off the coast of Australia after a devastating epidemic hits Australia. The community is given a fresh start, a brand-new eco-friendly village, isolated from the rest of the world yet up-to-date with today’s technology. August Island’s community is built on inclusiveness, sustenance, acceptance and protecting the environment.
I really liked this story, it is about hope and new beginnings. Sometimes, I wonder how this world is going to be post this pandemic which is around us now. Would we be more kinder, compassionate to one another? Will we have more acceptance in our world after everything we went through? This book does make you think.

Loved this story! I loved the shifter in Josh’s character from human to wolf. His love for Tamara is truly undeniable. There are plenty of ups and downs including some jealousy and doubt when these two get together. In the end, love should always prevail <3. This book was easy to read and hard to put down.
Brink of Denial: Sons of Sindicato Book 1 is an awesome book full of action, suspense, and twists, continuing an amazing series. This book concentrates on Dane and Mila who have a past together from when they were young. Mila finally comes to figure out that she misses Dane, who was her first serious boyfriend, and be by his side. Of course Dane doesn’t make it easy for her to be back in his life with the hurt and pain Mila caused him when she left. The authors are great at writing about relationships and how things don’t go as planned. The characters and the experiences they have suck you in so you want to read the book in one sitting!

I enjoyed this book by A.J. Renee. Cursed Whispers is a really good book. The world created by A.J. Renee is vibrant and interspersed with interesting intense characters. I really enjoyed the flow of the story and how the characters were developed. When I initially chose this book to read, I did not realize that it was the third in a series. Now that I know, I will read the first two books in the series by A.J. Renee. I look forward to reading more by A.J. Renee.

Sexy Drug (Losing My Heart Book 1) by Melody Calder is fast moving with drama and danger, drugs and love, action, and suspense. The cover leads to think this is a dark story and it is not wrong. This intense story is both confronting and brutal and certainly keeps the pages turning. My heart was pounding, and I often found myself holding my breath at the emotions I found myself dealing with.

This novel was so intense and introduced to me a new concept in the paranormal world that I found riveting and I could not put the book down. Sleeping Angel took the concept of ghosts and elevated it into something new and interesting. Nikki Lynn Barrett created a vibrant world and filled it with interesting people. I like that fact that she writes about damaged individuals and throughout her stories you see that with work and help from others, those individuals grew and became better people. Sleeping Angel is well worth reading and I look forward to seeing more from Nikki Lynn Barrett.

I was excited to get to read the second book of the Soul Connection series from Nikki Lynn Barrett, Sleeping Angel. I was prepared, or so I thought, for the emotional roller coaster that it would take me on and settled in on a rainy afternoon when I needed an escape from some heavy stuff going on in my own life. While I needed it it was one heck of a tear jerker! So make sure you have your tissues ready when you do finally read Logan and Angels story. This is one you do not want to miss though. It is a wonderful reminder that our lives are short and we should really savor what we have when we have it and live it while we can. I look forward to seeing what will come with the next novel. I am sure it will be just as wonderful as the first two.
I have never read anything previously from Marina Hanna but boy will I be back for more! This read was quite the fun one and it had just the right amount of steam to balance it all out. I really enjoyed the wit and sass that flowed off the kindle as I read and had me reading so fast I barely felt as if I had been reading for any time at all when that ending hit. I was a bit bummed but I didn’t feel slighted with the storyline. I wouldn’t mind more in the future of these two. They just popped so well and worked out so perfectly I couldn’t say enough good things. I really wanted to read more. That is saying a lot because the basis of an office romance is not a new trope and often one I skip lately since it tends to be overplayed for me. I am glad I gave this one a read though! Can’t wait to see what will come next.

Crimson may not be the best witch but she is a great person. She falls for a half demon half human that has a contract with the devil. She jokingly sells her soul to the devil and its a story of how she tries to get out of it. I absolutely loved the style of Pulkinens writing and this book really made me laugh out loud with all the crazy mishaps. Lifes a Witch is truly super entertaining and a quick listen. I did not want it to be over and I cant wait to listen on.

This was a first for me by this author and not really quite what I expected it to be. However, it turned out to be just as good, if not better, than what I thought when I started. I did feel like there was much more that needed to be written when I finished it, so I am glad to now know that the second part is now available. I am hoping that this will continue and finish off some of the questions that I had from this one. I will say that after a few chapters in I found myself immersed in a world of romance, magic, mystery, and a lot of laughter. The main character is brilliant on so many levels and I truly wanted to be in her little world. It was a fast read for me and I felt like I needed it to go on longer than it did.

Love Unexpected by Marina Hanna is a fast-paced office romance. When a chance encounter at a bar between Jules and Adam sends sparks flying, it is a shock to Jules when she finds out that he is none other than her new boss. Unable to keep business and pleasure separate Jules starts to fall for Adam but the older business mogul has his walls up high and it is uncertain whether he will let her in. I liked this book but really didn’t like Adam to start with, he was too pushy and unable to see how great he had it with Jules but her tenacious nature was really refreshing, she wasn’t one of those heroines who let herself be fooled by the powerful man, she stood her ground and I really liked that. This is a very steamy novel but has a good story and some interesting characters, who I am sure will have fun stories of their own.

An enjoyable and engaging paranormal, shifter romance with a twist. I was hooked from start to finish with this novel and felt immersed in Tamara and Josh’s world. Tamara has been burned by men before and is now against dating but she faintly remembers a man, Josh who she didn’t dare take a chance with and wishes she had. Meanwhile Josh, who is actually a wolf shifter is drawn to Tamara and her scent and when he realises that she is in fact his mate he will do anything to be near her, even become her pet. Tamara thinks the stray dog she took in is just her new pet, Nightfall, and could never imagine that he is in fact Josh. Josh soon wants to be more to Tamara than just her pet but is unsure how to get out of the crazy situation he’s in. He decides to convince her that he is the one for her. However, Tamara’s battered heart is preventing her from opening up to Josh and excepting a future with him and Josh knows that he risks her walking away from him for good. The authors descriptive narrative bought both the characters and the setting to life and I liked the twist on the shifter mate relationship, with Tamara thinking that Josh was her pet, Nightfall. The chemistry between Josh and Tamara came across in the story and I enjoyed how their relationship developed as they got to know each other. The storyline flowed well and the plot kept me happily turning the pages, keen to discover what would happen next.

I live in a world where I am a commodity to my father, but when a new bodyguard turns up can I make nice and tolerate him or will he shock me and see the real me.
Katie is the daughter of the big crime boss, she is an object to him but she is trying to become her own person but when you are watch 24/7 can I truly let my hair down and become the person I want to be.
Ramone started at the bottom of the pole, a drugs mule for the biggest crime family but slowly through the years he has progressed through the ranks and is now in the inner circle, the only problem now he has been asked to become the security to the bosses daughter, the only problem is he can’t stand her so this assignment should be interesting.
This is the first book I have read by this author and enjoyed this book from the first word to the last. The story is a lovely slow burn where you get to know the history and back story for both characters, I loved the way the characters play the antagonist to each other and while at the beginning they can’t stand each other but slowly get to know each other and then start having feelings.
The secondary characters in the book develop and draw you further into the story and the you feel invested in the mysteries and twist that this story has to offer. I really enjoyed this book and would love to read the next instalment and see if there are more answers revealed in the next book.

When she next wakes up she feels the presence of a pack alpha and is terrified of him, but the other voices around her realise this and tell him off, it is then that she realises that the door to the cage she is in is open and considers running, however, the kind voice nearby tells her it would be no use in the condition she is currently in, but that she is also free to leave whenever she wants to. She responds to his questions as best she can and introduces herself as Claudia Lupita, but she is overtaken by the need to shift and the excruciating pain which this causes makes unusual things happen in the room although she doesn’t understand why yet. Meanwhile Max is taken aback by the sudden and fierce need to protect this werewolf and loses control of his telekinesis when his brother tries to approach Claudia to heal her now she is back in her human form and as he apologises for throwing them around the room and allows him near to her to help heal her, all the while feeling her pain within him and not comprehending why.
After the others leave the surgery Max tries to engage with Claudia while giving her space and time to adjust to the new environment around her all the while constantly reassuring her that she is safe with him.

This is book 3 in the Broderick Coven series and I loved this as much as the first 2.
In this book we follow Max. Max is a witch in the Broderick coven and his gift is being able to hear and talk to animals. At his sisters babyshower he feels the pull of an animal in danger and pain so he goes to investigate. Little does he know it will change his life forever.
The animal is finds isn’t just an animal. Its a were shifter called Claudia. Claudia has escaped an abusive prison but has been left injured and scared. Max takes care of her and they soon realise their feelings are more than just an attraction.
However with danger looking for Claudia, a missing daughter to find and Claudia learning to trust men again can they succeed and build on their connection? How far would Max be prepared to go to protect Claudia and her daughter?
