The Longest Run: a Ski Patrol Rescue Romance (Lawson Family #4) by Tracey Cramer-Kelly – Review by Rachel Moss

The Longest RunThe Longest Run by Tracey Cramer-Kelly
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Longest Run (Lawson Family Series, Book Four) by Tracey Cramer-Kelly was a really good read! This is a standalone novel. This is the first book in this series I’ve read, and I didn’t feel like I missed anything important or vital from not reading the others first. It was very entertaining and well written. It was very descriptive, I felt like I was right there on the slopes with Carly and Chris the whole time. There’s was also enough steam in this novel to keep the chill of winter away! It did take me a little bit to get hooked in this story. It didn’t grab me at first in the way I thought it would. Overall this book was a very fun and easy read. I can’t wait to read more from this author in the future!

Crave (Clark Family Series Book 1)Crave by Evelyn Sola
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this story. It is an emotional rollercoaster from start to finish. There are so many relationshipship dynamics in this book that you really feel drawn into it completely. No family is perfect but the other manages to take two people with troubled past together and it works.

Jacob has had bad relationships. After being hurt and decieved by his brother and his sister in law it has left him bitter and angry towards everyone including his brothers. There is always arguments when ever they are together because Jacob is carrying so much pain and can’t let it go.

Sandy is a hardworking woman. Who isn’t looking for a relationship. Especially not with someone with a lot of drama. That is until she meets Jacob.
After their first meeting the attraction and connection between them is instant however with both of them dealing with pasts and the drama of the families can they work things out to be together or will their pasts keep destroying any chance of them having a future.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Another fantastic book from this author! I absolutely loved it. This author has a fantastic writing style which draws me in straight away. I loved the first book in the series and I am so glad that this one didn’t disappoint. From the beautiful descriptive language to the fantastic characters I was hooked from beginning to end. I love Maggie and Will, their journey is far from easy and I loved the story plot for this book! It was so exciting to read!
I would definitely recommend reading book 1 prior to this one to fully understand the characters and their story. I think if you love historical/time travel stories then this series is absolutely one you should read!

Heartbeats and Roses (Hartwood Holiday Romance) by Jae Dawson – Review by Katie Matthews

Heartbeats and Roses: A Small Town Valentine's Day Romance (A Hartwood Holiday Romance)Heartbeats and Roses: A Small Town Valentine’s Day Romance by Jae Dawson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Heartbeats and Roses was a nice, romantic read and I found it very enjoyable to read. This isn’t the first book that I have read by this author and although sadly I didn’t enjoy it as much as the others it was still a good read. I think for me I struggled with connecting with the characters and I’m not sure why to be honest. They were nice enough and I liked them but I just didn’t feel that connection with them like I have previously. Rose and Liam obviously had a past and that connection between them was still there all those years later however I was missing a little bit of passion between them, thy did seem to have a genuine connection thought which was lovely to read about. I liked how Liam’s character developed over the story and I feel like I got to him more than I did Rose.
Overall a good read and I am definitely looking forward to more from this author again in the future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Black Dog Rising by Kat Caulberg 4 out of 5 Stars
Emma Aubrey is a force to be reckoned with. This sweet romance has a twist of the paranormal but once you read about Emma, you fall head over heels for her. Toby himself is mysterious, and I love a handsome mysterious innkeeper. Who wouldn’t want to fall in love with someone like that? Caulberg did a fantastic job of engaging the reader and keeping the suspense and mystery going until the very end. I also LOVED reading about the English stores of paranormal creatures. I recommended this book for lovers of mystery, romance, paranormal, and sci-fi. 4 out of 5 stars.

Stormy's Thunder (Satan's Devils MC Utah #2)Stormy’s Thunder by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Stormy’s Thunder (Satan’s Devils MC Utah #2) by Manda Mellett was a great 5 star read.
I was pulled in right from the beginning.

Stormy disappeared from the clubhouse leaving his cut behind. The MC brothers all thought he had abandoned his club and ran. He returns with a literal “bang” and he ends up in the hospital. It appears like he has been tortured, but by who?

While he’s in the hospital the MC tries to figure out where he was, will they find the answers they are looking for?

Overall this was an edge of your seat read. I couldn’t wait to see myself just where Stormy was and get the answers along with the club. He grew on me the more the story developed. The author does a great job of pulling you right in with her writing and finally getting to see Stormy’s story was great. I would suggest reading the other books in the series so you can get the build up to this book. All of the characters were great, it was a family reunion of sorts. If you’re looking for a thrilling MC read, 1-click and get started today on this great series.

At Last: Adams Brother by Mindy McKinley is book 1 in this series. And let me say I absolutely loved it, I wasn’t sure what to expect but I wasn’t disappointed. This is a contemporary romance book that goes from hot to scorching with the main characters quickly. Lula and Dominic have off the chart’s chemistry and you can’t help but hope they work. The author wrote an amazing story that pulls you in and doesn’t let go. I can’t wait for the second installment.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Heartbeats and Roses is a cute contemporary story that is just what the doctor ordered. With everything that is going on in the world right now (covid 19), I know personally, I need some good times with a special someone. The plotline is engaging and the characters are really interesting. Not only is this a contemporary romance, but it has second chances. This is a small town and everything that goes with that distinguishment of being a small town. I was hooked into Rose. I enjoyed her love of life and how she is creating the life she wants in this small town. Rose is the town matchmaker. She loves helping others find their match but can she find her own love? Liam is a surgeon who comes back to this little town. Will Liam want to return to the life he had 20 years ago in this small town? How is Rose dealing with Liam back in town? Does she have feelings for Liam all of this time? I highly recommend this book to find out the answers to these questions and more.

This is a review for Don’t Worry, I Still Hate You by Marie Skye
Well, I really enjoyed this story and I wish we could’ve gotten more of these two, I would’ve read them all day!
Perrie and Ash have some history, and she’s never forgiven him for it. Needing a new roommate, she places an ad and never expects who it is that moves in.
From there it just got better. The chemistry between the two was coming off the pages, and I love those types of reads.
Would love to get to know them better as there was a lot to digest, which the author did a good job summarizing it all but more details were wanted in places for me.
Overall it was a great read, and that ending, ugh I loved it so so much!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Who doesn’t like a book that offers a collection of stories at once that you can pick up and choose what you’re in the mood for whenever you feel like it? The story that really caught my attention is Don’t Worry, I Still Hate You by Marie Skye. Marie Skye is an author I’ve read in the past and enjoyed, so I had faith in the writing but I was really drawn by the synopsis. I will be honest with you, at the very beginning I was not sure I would enjoy the story. It didn’t start with the addictive qualities I am so used to reading. It did pick up fairly quickly, thankfully and the characters were enjoyable. I truly appreciate a storyline that holds characters with good banter, this had it. I would recommend this collection if nothing more than to read this 4 star story but with a collection to meet anyone’s reading needs, how can you go wrong?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ride With The Moonlight by Andrea Matthews is the second book in the Thunder on the Moor series. This series does have to be read in order as it is a continuation of the characters story.
For me this book was even better than the first. I found it so easy to jump straight back into the story and reconnected with the characters immediately. I was excited to see where their journey was going to take them next and how they would overcome everything that seemed to be in their way.
The writing in this book was just as imaginative and detailed as it was in the first. This meant it was so easy to picture everything going on. This has been a strong series and this book really just reinforces that completely. I would highly recommend you give this series a try today!

The Longest Run: a Ski Patrol Rescue Romance (Lawson Family #4) by Tracey Cramer-Kelly – Review by Angela Shirley

The Longest RunThe Longest Run by Tracey Cramer-Kelly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Carly is happy skiing during the winter season but she has a secret from years ago which intersects her life and her relationships. Carly enjoys the one a season lover who can vanish at the end of the season with no strings attached. Until she sees Chris and something stirs inside that she has not felt in a long-time but will the feelings reciprocated or will she be left wanting again.

Chris was a Olympic Skier until that fateful day which changed his life forever. Although he is now determined to make the Paralympic team and is dedicated to the task he can’t stop thinking about the woman on the slope.

I loved this story and we the chemistry between these two characters was brilliant and that jumped off the page. The story delves into the both characters ups and down, plus the sheer determination that nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it.

The story is well constructed and draws you into the story and bring the characters into your heart, especially when you are urging them forward into their relationship and feeling you are living the story with them. I can wait to read the next book in this wonderful series.

Chris and Carly were a fantastic pair and I really appreciated how well developed each character was on their own as well as the depth of the relationship. This book is filled with heartbreak and secrets and the affect it has on self and loved ones. This book was a real page turned and one I thoroughly enjoyed.

4 Stars

First …. What a beautiful cover on this book!

I have read the previous three in this series and have loved every one of them, with the 1st still being my favorite. First I will say that in my opinion these must be read in order, just because of the depth of all of these characters and the previous stories were simply awesome. That’s not saying you couldn’t read this as a standalone but I’m glad I didn’t.

This was not my favorite of the 4, I was still completely invested in the story but there were just some things that did not work for me. The writing style was still completely on point and I still read this in one sitting. The unexpected twists were placed perfectly. There were more than a few times I wanted to crawl through my kindle and scream at people. It’s safe to say this was an up and down ride for me. I am glad I read Carly’s story, I was looking forward to it as I love love love the Lawson Family. The family aspect is my favorite part of all of these books. I highly recommend reading all of this series..It is that good and this author is definitely a for sure one click for me.

I loved Matching Miriam from the absolute start. Mya O’Malley is an author I have loved reading since I read her Maggie trilogy. I still think of the books years later!
I loved the familiarity that came with the book, having already met Naomi in past reading. (If you’ve never read a Mya O’Malley book before, you will still understand the book entirely, it’s just extra fun otherwise).
Honestly, I am not sure how to describe Matching Miriam as a book itself. There were times I felt myself overanalyzing each character, trying to figure everything out. There were times I was actually nervous or genuinely had chills. Overall, I just loved the book and look forward to more from this author.

At Once is the second book in the Adam Brothers series by Mindy McKinley. This is a sexy, fun, and flirty contemporary romance- with just a light sprinkle of drama to keep things interesting.

Their interior design business is taking off and things are beginning to fall into place for Gabi. Until Mason Adams turns her carefully constructed world upside-down. This is where things take an interesting turn.
