My rating: 5 of 5 stars

She does it again! Another amazing adventure of justice and love. Night Justice (A Chicago Vigilantes Novel Book 1) is written by India Kells. This a spin-off novel from her other books. There is a group of Vigilantes on the move on the streets of Chicago. A new drug is said to hit the streets and this one is deadly. Orla is a reporter and is determined to shut this drug down before anyone gets killed. One of the Vigilantes is out there to help. Is he out there to help Orla or the city? Not so easy to tell once these two finally meet. This is a very exciting book and you can’t help but continue to read it. It has everything that you could possibly think of…drugs, crime lords and sex. The sexy scenes are intense and oh so very hot! The characters are amazing! I truly can’t say enough good things about this book and this author. I can’t wait to read the next book and to see where the adventure takes us! If you love a good suspense series, this is a really good place to start!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this Christmas steamy romance. This is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her in the future. This is a well developed story that I couldn’t put down to the last page. I was pulled in right from the beginning by the characters. I had no problem connecting with them as they made the story realistic. This is a story about love at first site. But because it’s your mother’s boss, you try to ignore the instant attraction. This is not what was expected at your mother’s Christmas party. What will happen when you throw all the rules out the door? I highly recommend reading to find out what happens. This is a great story that I found to have some humor and awesome steam. This will bring some Christmas spirit as well as warm up a cold night to your life.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoy India Kells books and this one I have to say is my favorite so far. This book takes place in my hometown Chicago. It is always reading books about the city you grew up in. The plotline is engaging and the characters are well developed. There is a vigilante who patrols the nights when all of the darkness comes out to play. The vigilante has decided to work with newspaper writers, Orla Karlsen to help clean up the streets. This is where the story gets good. There is such a chemistry between the vigilante and Orla. Will they be able to keep the focus on cleaning up the shadows and get the drugs off of the streets? I highly recommend reading this story to see what happens. I cannot wait to see what is going to be coming next.

Night Justice- India Kells

5-Stars

I am such a huge fan of India Kells and she never ceases to amaze me! It seems like every new book she writes quickly becomes my new favorite and Night Justice is no different. This is a truly phenomenal read, from the very beginning I was hooked! I was able to read it in one sitting as I just couldn’t bring myself to put it down, I was completely captivated from the first chapter.

Night Justice is dark, intense, steamy and very action-packed. There’s truly never a dull moment. India writes with so much detail which made it easy to picture everything playing out in my mind which made this such a great read! I fell in love with these characters from the beginning and I just couldn’t get enough, and even now that I’ve reached the end I still want more, I cannot wait to read more of this series ASAP. Well done India Kells!!

This box set consists of the three books in The Sanctuary Chronicles series: Broken Magic, Blind Magic and Dead Magic plus a bonus novella- Hidden Magic all by India Kells. This paranormal series is incredible! I’ve read many paranormal books in my time so I can honestly say that this one is worth a read! It’s unique, intriguing, intense, action-packed and truly captivating. I found this series to be a fast read as India writes with so much detail which kept me entertained and never wanting to put it down.

I loved how with each book I was kept on my toes wondering until the very end how everything would play out. I was able to connect with these characters from the start so I felt highly invested in each of their stories and I can honestly say I was not disappointed with how any of their stories played out.

Having said all that, I would absolutely recommend this series to anyone looking to start their next paranormal read! India Kells is a phenomenal author and you will not be disappointed!

Being Lost (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1) by Manda Mellett – Review by Tracy Manderson

Being Lost (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1)by Manda Mellett

5 out of 5 stars

I have read quite a few books written by Ms. Mellett and her writing just gets better with each book. I love how through she is with her descriptions if its of the club house and compound or just the people in general. These guys are not just a bunch of misfits that come together it is a brotherhood.

Lost had it all wife, house, business, money, and he lost it all. He always thinks he is a screwup that let people down. He does not know how he ended up the president of the San Diego chapter and he always thinks he will let his brothers down.

When he meets Patsy the mother of one of the old ladies from the Colorado chapter all bets are off, she is in danger and he needs to keep her safe. Can Lost keep Patsy safe or will he let her down?

Patsy she left everything behind to make a new life, choosing which of her two adult children now needed her the most. It was a hard decision for her to leave one of her children behind. So, with a new life and new city they should have been safe if it wasn’t for one mistake she made and they found her/them.

Luckily for her the Satan Devils come to the rescue before trouble starts. This is where Lost and Patsy meet there is an instant attraction between them but their both not looking for a relationship. Lost thinks he should stay away and warn her that he isn’t a person to trust when he doesn’t have faith in himself. But of course, Patsy sees him differently and feels that the only man that can keep her safe is Lost but can she really depend on him?

I highly recommend this story and all the other Satan Devil books that Ms. Mellett wrote….

By Joanne Dannon
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the stories in the book Dreaming of Christmas: 5 complete, sweet holiday romances by Joanne Dannon. They are fun and enjoyable. They are romantic and have moments that warm your heart and soothe the soul. This book put me in the Christmas mood and is perfect to be read by the fire with a cup of coffee/tea. I loved all of the characters and I couldn’t help but root for them to find their HEA. These are stories that show the meaning of true love and how it can happen anytime or anywhere. I got a warm, fuzzy feeling while reading. There is Christmas magic at work, and I loved how each of the main characters interacts and banters with each other. The author does a wonderful job of making both the stories and the characters come alive. Don’t miss out on five stories that are romantic, entertaining, and exciting to read. I highly recommend reading them.

I loved reading the book At Last (The Adams Brothers BOOK 1) by Mindy McKinley. It is a story that pulled me in from the very beginning and I was hooked. I love the characters of Lula Stanley and Dominic Adams. Lula is a wonderful teacher. She cares about her students. She also wants to know who her father is. Dominic is handsome, charming, and a man that doesn’t get attached to those he goes out with. What is it about Lula that makes him want to change? There is an attraction between them that can’t be denied. What does the future hold for them? Will they find a HEA? Read this book to find out. This story had my emotions going up and down the entire time I was reading it. I grew to care about what happens with Dominic and Lula with each chapter that I read. It was also enjoyable to read about many of the additional characters introduced. I loved the banter that goes back and forth between Dominic and Lula. The author does a wonderful job of making you feel the emotions of the characters and bringing the story to life. Don’t miss out on a romantic, entertaining, and exciting story that you will not want to put down until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

I loved this Christmas romance story which has a paranormal touch to it as well. This is one of my favorites yet from this author. One of the things I love most about this author is her writing skills and her attention to details that makes the stories realistic. This book is no different. I was pulled in by Juliette and Luke. They made great characters which made the story easy to read and entertaining. Juliette goes on vacation at the same time every year but this year there is an obstacle in her way, Luke. He is attracted to her right from the start. Will the spirit of Christmas bring these two together? This story is full of romance, magic and comedy. I highly recommend this fast paced, engaging story.

This is the second book of the series, New Orleans Nocturnes. And just like the first book License to Bite, it’s absolutely hilarious. All Sophie wanted was a hot werewolf lover. But after Trace bites her at a party. Sophie needs to find out who cursed Trace’s pack before the next full moon or she gets wolfy. I also cannot believe this cliffhanger. Once again I cannot wait to read the next book to find out what happens to Jane and Sophie’s friend.

This is definitely my favourite book by this author. I have read all her books and her writing is getting better with each one. This is a fast paced story either action and drama. Its characters range from a variety of supernatural beings which makes things interesting.

Delilah is a tough, sarcastic, burnt out demon. She decides to leave the city for a little vacation in Juniper Lake only to find herself in a load of trouble once she’s there. She’s caught in the town’s web of lies. She tries to extricate herself without hurting too many people but certain things can’t be avoided.

I loved the characters and the story kept me enthralled until the end. Can’t wait to read more in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

No Rest For The Wicked by Naomi Valkyrie is the first book in the new series Life is Hell. We are introduced to the demon Delilah Hawthorne, a bar owner, who thinks things will improve if she gets away. Little does she know that a new town might be not as restful as planned. I have really enjoyed other books by this author but I am hooked on this series. Delilah and the other characters have left me wanting more. I read this fairly quickly because it was hard to put down. Ms. Valkyrie sets the characters and world-building apart by making them smart and interesting to the reader. It is rare for me to leave a book and ready to dive into the next in the series, but this is what has happened with this book. I look forward to reading more from this author and series soon.

Carrie Pulkinen is a paranormal romance author who has always been fascinated with things that go bump in the night. Of course, when you grow up next door to a cemetery, the dead (and the undead) are hard to ignore. Pair that with her passion for writing and her love of a good happily-ever-after, and becoming a paranormal romance author seems like the only logical career choice.

Before she decided to turn her love of the written word into a career, Carrie spent the first part of her professional life as a high school journalism and yearbook teacher. She loves good chocolate and bad puns, and in her free time, she likes to read, drink wine, and travel with her family.

Grumbler's Ride (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #2)Grumbler’s Ride by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Grumbler’s Ride: Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #2 by Manda Mellett is a MC romance suspense story. This is a slower paced story than the usual but does pick up toward the end but that doesn’t mean it is anything less than the others. Manda is one of my favourite storytellers and MC is her genre. She knows just how to do it greatly and I must say I think this is my new favourite. Grumbler, our main character is older to boot, soon finds himself finding something he never thought he would have. Now the stakes are even higher, and he is in the fight to win. I love these guys who are big teddy bears BUT cross a line and you are free fodder for fire. As usual Manda has given us an awesome story and just as awesome characters.

Grumbler’s Ride (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #2) by Manda Mellett
5 of 5 Stars
I am a big fan of Manda Mellett’s ‘Satan’s Devils’ romantic suspense MC novels and so was looking forward to this second book in he ‘Satan’s Devils MC San Diego’ series. In ‘Grumbler’s Ride’ we are back with the MC members of the Satan’s Devils SAN Diego chapter. This book does include some dark themes which may contain triggers but these are part of the overall storyline and as usual Mellett writes with honesty and sensitivity. The story centres around sergeant-at-arms Grumbler, who has been part of the Satan’s Devils for ever and who is fairly happy with his settled life believing himself too old to change his ways. However, he’s never had an ‘old lady’ , or kids but doesn’t feel like he’s missing out. Things change for Grumbler and become complicated when Mary enters his life at a photo shoot featuring Grumbler’s baby (his motorcycle). Mary is a busy and frazzled single mum to seventeen year old Alicia who is always trying to push boundaries and challenge her mum. Mary is horrified when she discovers Alicia is going to model for a perfect stranger without a chaperone and despite the arguments Mary goes to the photo shoot with her daughter. Mary was right that the situation and the photographer were not above board but she’s surprised when it’s the gruff owner of the motorcycle used in the shoot, biker Grumbler who helps her and Alicia when they need backup.
I was hooked from start to finish by ‘Grumbler’s Ride’ and I liked the fact that the main characters, Grumbler and Mary were an older couple getting a second chance at love later in life. The storyline is fast paced and the plot is full of drama, suspense and romance which kept me reading late into the night. The characters as usual are well defined and both Grumbler, Mary and Alicia are all very realistic and relatable making me feel invested in the outcome for them all in the story. The story took me on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading it and although it does include some difficult scenes and tackles some sensitive issues these add depth to the overall story. I found ‘Grumbler’s Ride’ to be an enjoyable, emotional and engaging read. I look forward to future Satan’s Devils novels.

Being Lost (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #1)Being Lost by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

My love for Manda Mellet and her Satan’s Devils began in Colorado and has now moved to San Diego!

Lost is the name of the president of the San Diego chapter of the Satan’s Devils motorcycle club. Lost is well, lost. And for most of the book he is finding himself. And finding a reason for happiness, which he finds in Patsy who is in danger. Lost makes her his top priority.

Patsy and her son, Dan, are trying to start a new life away from the trouble Pasty’s ex-husband started before his death. But some things are hard to escape. Maybe the help from a Lost man is all Patsy needs.
I like this story and the growth that Lost makes throughout it. I love that this story has older characters as the lead. Not every hero/heroine is a 20-something Barbie girl!

Glad I have the next book in this series ready to go!

Grumbler’s Ride by Manda Mellett is book two of the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series.

Grumbler’s life is just the way he wants it. He never felt that he missed out on anything. All he needs is his motorcycle. He never expected things to get quite so complicated. Mary, as a single mom, is used to handling things on her own and she never expected to need help let alone that of Grumbler. He seems abrasive and gruff but the way he helped Mary and Alicia was so sweet!

Grumbler’s Ride is the second book in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series by Manda Mellett. I have read all of Ms. Mellett’s books now, and always enjoy what she does- she always produces a captivating read, and this story was no different. This is an MC romance, with an older couple- as well as exploring some sensitive topics.
Grumbler and Mary’s story makes a great addition to the series, and Satan’s Devils world. It is a slower paced/slower burn story than some of Ms. Mellett’s other books- but still delivers all the feels we’ve come to expect from her work.

Thank you, Manda Mellett!

BLIND MAGIC (Book #2)

Blind Magic is the second book in The Sanctuary Chronicles by India Kells. OMG!! This Book, and Series is brilliant! I love everything about it, but especially the wonderful story that completely enchanted me right from the beginning and held me spellbound right through till the end. I couldn’t put it down, because I just had to know how things would play out- so I ended up reading it in one sitting! Ms. Kells weaves a breathtaking Paranormal/shifter story with werewolves, witches, spells, magic, suspense, intrigue, drama, mystery, and a really beautiful romance.
This story could be read as a standalone, but I really recommend reading the first book before embarking on this one, because there are a lot of recurring characters in this book who we meet in the first book, and a lot of backstory and character information is also contained in the book one. Not to mention that it’s an exceptionally good story in its own right. The epilogue at the end of book one set us up for book two, and becomes the prologue in this book.
I am still in awe of all the seemingly small details that are intricately woven throughout the story that turn out to have unexpected connections and deeper meaning later on down the line. The story is so superbly written, wonderfully detailed, with vivid descriptions that help to bring everything into being. I was completely swept up in Sera and Ian’s story and followed along expectantly the whole way through.
We met Sera in book one as she is one of Valeria’s best friends. Apart from being a powerful witch, Sera is a renowned scholar and researcher, who spends a great deal of time with her nose buried in the books at Impossibilities Inc, the specialty store for witches and magical beings, where Sera works. She is incredibly intelligent, loyal, and kind- with a bit of a stubborn streak. She has worn glasses for quite some time, as her eyesight has been slowly failing over the years. She expects that at some point she will lose it entirely- but she is completely unprepared when blindness strikes quite suddenly. It comes as a great shock and she has been having trouble adjusting to never seeing again- especially since the last thing she saw before losing her sight was the dark and intriguing werewolf she can’t help but feel drawn to and would love to look at some more.
Ian Macon’s world was shattered several years earlier when his wife and young daughter were killed by rogue Enforcers. His rage nearly made him feral. He was broken, alone and became bitter towards everything and everyone. Asher brought him to the Sanctuary and gave him a place there, where he could make a difference helping others. Ian is now the beta to Asher’s Alpha of the pack. He is strong, powerful and commanding in his own right, but still a shell of the wolf he once was. His one true mate died- so he will never again find that connection with anyone else, that bond died with his mate. But meeting Sera was like a beacon shining through his darkness, beckoning him into the light.
But one thing I have learned about Ms. Kells is that things are never simple, there are layers and complexities yet to reveal themselves. There is definitely a lot more to Sera and her situation, which we discover and that comes into play in a huge way. Ian can’t fight his attraction, or his protective feelings towards Sera- and even though ‘mixed’ relationships are outlawed by the governing council, sometimes fate has a mind of its own. But, danger is stalking Sera, putting her and all those she cares about in serious peril. She will have to find answers and get to the bottom of everything before it’s too late. But will she have to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to save the one/s she loves?
There were time through this story where I had my heart in my mouth, reading along anxiously as things played out! The suspense, mystery, tension and intrigue were superb! It was so well done, it was like having a movie play out in front of me. There were emotional points throughout the book, that really made my heart ache- but the last few chapters had me literally sobbing my heart out- I was so caught up in everything that was happening, the story broke me and flung my emotions all around the place, before Ms. Kells slowly pieced me back together again…. And I. Loved. Every. Single. Moment. Of. It!
I can’t recommend this story highly enough! You really should do yourself a favour and grab a copy, because you’re sure to love it as much as I have!

 

Happy Reading!

Thank you, India Kells!

No Rest for the Wicked (Life Is Hell Book 1) by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Angela Hayes

No Rest for the Wicked (Life is Hell #1)No Rest for the Wicked by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

 

“When I’m not out slaughtering adulterers, I like to curl up with a good book. Not that I’d tell the other demons that. I do have a reputation to uphold.”

 

No Rest For the Wicked is the first spellbinding instalment in the new Life is Hell series, by Naomi Valkyrie. This is hands down my favourite book from Ms. Valkyrie, so far- and that’s saying something, as I didn’t think she could top her ‘House Valdis’ series- but Ms. Valkyrie certainly pulled an ace out her sleeve with this amazing first instalment.
This book had me entranced right from the beginning, I devoured every word, and was completely immersed in the story. I read it in one sitting as I couldn’t put it down. It captured my attention and imagination in such an unexpectedly great way.
Naomi Valkyrie has a talent for telling a wonderful, original, and captivating fantasy. Weaving a dynamic story full of texture, layers, and rich detailing. Her clever and imaginative details really bring her story, and characters, to life- and made me feel like I’m there watching it all unfold, as a part of it all. This story has fantasy, paranormal elements, demons, witches, shifters, magic, humour, paranormal investigation, mystery, action, danger, hidden agendas, secrets, sizzling chemistry, a few surprising developments, and wonderful romance.
Delilah is a demon who normally enjoys her ‘work’- but lately she just isn’t feeling it. She is feeling burnt out and in need of a vacation, yes even demons need a break. So, she packs her bags and starts to drive, finding herself in Juniper Lake, a small town that looked like time forgot. She’s surprised that she feels so drawn to the place, she is a big city girl after all- but something about the place really appealed to her. So, she finds a place to stay, unpacks, and get ready to relax and unwind. But all too soon Delilah finds herself caught up in a mystery that will test her like never before. So much for the relaxing holiday. But what Delilah discovers turns her life on end, bringing change in more ways than one.
I love Delilah with all her sarcastic, snarky, humorous personality- and total kickbutt attitude. Malakhi, what can I say that won’t give away any spoilers, except ‘swoon’. Love all the other secondary characters- so well crafted and interesting. They made reading this story a true delight.
Can. Not. Wait. To. Continue. This. Series!
Bring on Book #2!!!

Thank you, Naomi Valkyrie!

Being Lost ( Satan’s Devils MC #1) By Manda Mellett Review Written by Crystal Davidson

Being Lost (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #1)Being Lost by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book rocked my world!! I knew I was going to love it because who doesn’t love a genuine motorcycle man? Being Lost by Manda Mellett is book 1 in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series. If ever there was an older gentleman that could make me swoon, Lost is him!! Lost is the president of MC. He is funny, smart, ambitious, protective, romantic and so much more! Patty is once divorced and not even close to looking for a relationship because life has different plans for her. She is scared, living under an assumed named, newly estranged from her daughter because of circumstances involving her son, and unknowingly under the protection of the MC when she unexpectedly gets a knock at her door. From that moment on, this story is unpredictable, mysterious, steamy in places, and outright unputdownable! 5 star read for sure!

Grumbler’s Ride (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #2) by Manda Mellett – Review by Lisa Helmick

Grumbler's Ride (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #2)Grumbler’s Ride by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Whoa! This book is amazing! I loved all the danger and the drama (you know how teens are). This one is a bit different from the previous stories. A Slower pace and more depth. We get a ride with the grizzled Grumbler who is knocking on sixty’s door. He is gruff but fair. Even though he is older I liked his outlook on his life and the club. I also enjoy his attention and kindness to Alicia. I love the relationship they build enough that she can smart mouth him on some things. I can’t stop smiling during the scene near the end. Alicia get told some information from her mom and Grumbler comes in.

The characters are well written. They are full of honesty and fire. From the teenager all the way to the older biker. I enjoyed being brought into their worlds and learning what makes them tick. We get more insight into the Devils members also with this story. Plus we get a bonus of a couple characters from Utah (which I thoroughly loved).

Overall this is a wonderfully written story. I couldn’t put this one down and read late into the night. That’s last few scenes at the clubhouse i enjoyed immensely and make me feel young again. It does have a few dark elements but nothing I haven’t seen before pertaining to MC’s. The characters are written with depth and feeling. They just make me want to know more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love the author India Kells. I loved all three of these books and there’s nothing better than just getting all of a series immediately. It’s not like I’m not going to read them! I have to read a series in order, and I suggest it for this series as well. All of the characters are well developed and bring life to this story. I enjoyed the forbidden love, redemption and forgiveness this series has. I definitely recommend this box set!

The Sanctuary Chronicles Box Set - Book 1-3 + NovellaThe Sanctuary Chronicles Box Set – Book 1-3 + Novella by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Sanctuary Chronicles Box Set – Book 1-3 + Novella by India Kells. This box set was amazing. It is full of Paranormal, Magic, Fantasy, Romance, mystery and drama. Each book will suck you in and keep you there until the very end. I loved each book a little more. In Broken Magic its about a witch who is cursed and a werewolf who hates her. He wants revenge for what happened to his family but that isn’t what happens. In Blind Magic you have Sera a witch going blind and Ian a werewolf who falls in love with her and makes it his life mission to protect her. The last book is Dead Magic and its about Finn O’Malley and he is the oldest living Vampire ever. Violet is his kryptonite and he knows he must stay away from her but he can’t. He feels himself drawn to her constantly. I loved this box set and you will swept away in it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book. Everything about it made me happy. I legit read this book in 5 hours? Didn’t put it down once. Delilah was our main female character and from the beginning I was hooked and couldn’t wait to see what she got herself into. Our main male character Malakhi had me drooling- a sexy man in a uniform who wants to help people. Yes please! I recommend this book and can’t wait to see what Life is Hell book 2 brings! I loved the sexual diversity of this book as well. Get me a little MFM while seeing what kind of adventures we’re going on- HELLO read this book lol :). **There are no graphic sex scenes in this book** Sad for me but if you’re not into the details then great for you ;).
