My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a few books from this author and she always blows my mind. The way she writes these characters they feel like they are your friends. This is the third book to the very addictive Deadly Isles Special Ops series. You can read this as a stand alone but there are some previous characters in this story as well. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately and I could not put it down until the end. It only took me a few hours to read this amazing book.

Malina is an analyst for the Seals and she loves what she does. She takes her job very seriously. Malina just can’t get this man out of her head. She knows he is wrong for her but Tyler is always in the back of her mind. Malina finds herself running from people she thought she trusted. She can only go to one man that can help her and that’s Tyler. Malina was set up by one of her own but who? Will Malina find out who set her up or will they find her first?

Auctioned (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 3) by Via Mari – Review by Jules Herbert

Auctioned (Billionaire Bodyguards, #3)Auctioned by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

WOW What a fantastic read…i was on the edge of my seat the whole time and just could not put it down!

The leading lady of this story , Bryanna, is dragged into a dangerous and volatile situation in order to protect her family who she cares very deeply about. Along comes seriously dominant and deadly gorgeous Damian to find and rescue her. This is so not in her plans when she has her family to protect. Immediately Damian is not only wanting to protect Bryanna for the sake of his job but also because of his instant attraction to her. Bryannas very obvious submissive side calls to her brave protector.

i think the fact that there were times when i wanted to bop the main characters Damian and Bryanna up side the head for not just talking to each other, shows how creatively the wonderful Author Via Mari formed her characters to make us care about them. They have heart and depth that just makes you want to keep reading. The book presents both characters sides of the story all the way through giving us much better insight into the various situations that come along.

you will walk away from this book with a happy, full heart and begging for more.

Auctioned
Billionaire Bodyguards
Book 3
By Via Mari
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Be prepared to read this full length novel. You will read about a romance built from a horrible crime. Let the bodyguards do their job! Not for those under 18, due to adult content.

This is Bryanna and Damian’s story. While Bryanna is strong and independent she finds herself in trouble. She will try to save herself while protecting her niece, nephew and mother. But we all know things can not be right when a young girl is kidnapped. Damian is a bodyguard who is assigned to find Bryanna and get her back. So if I tell you anymore, it will not let you read what I just read.

Via Mari has done it again. You are about to read this extremely intense romance. It will be one you won’t soon forget. I love the characters and their strength. This fast paced romance leaves nothing out. You will have suspense, romance, and a crime ring that needs to be stopped. Be prepared to have your emotions played with. I cried, got mad and cheered for the hero’s in this story. Please start on book 1. Get to know the rest of the bodyguards. This is a MUST READ SERIES. Well done Via Mari! Well Done!

Auctioned: Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance is the third book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series by Via Marie. I know I say this about most Via Marie’s books, but this is my new favorite. Via Marie is one of my must read authors and I enjoy all of her books. Auctioned follows Damian and Bryanna on a wild ride. This book is filled with action and adventure, suspense and danger, and wrapped up in romantic intrigue. This book had me reading long into the night, but it was well worth the lose of sleep. I can’t wait to see what Via will have in store for us next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Every now and then I want to read a small town, rainbows and butterflies type romance novel but when I want to read a pulse racing, steamy story with substance, I seek out Via Mari. Auctioned is book three in the Billionaire Bodyguards series and it is captivating from the start. Much like I’ve come to expect from a Via Mari novel, the storyline is just intense enough to grab your attention (and keep it) without losing you in all the moving parts. I enjoy this series because there are familiar characters I’ve met over time in Via Mari’s writing but if you’re just discovering the series, you won’t be lost.
I love the complexity of the characters first and foremost but put Damien and Bryanna together and the chemistry is unmatched! It’s ⅘ stars from me and as always, can’t wait to read more by this author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amy’s Santa: Satan’s Devils MC (Second Generation) is the first in a new series expanding the world of the Tuscon, Arizona MC by Manda Mellett. I really enjoyed this telling of Amy and Drew (Wizard) finding their way back to each other.

Amy is Heart’s daughter and first met Drew when she was just 5 years old. They became fast friends even though Drew is 10 years older than Amy. When Amy got older and started to transition into a woman their paths separated. They each lost a friend and possubly even more.

After Amy left the compound to go to school and forge ahead in her life, Drew (Wizard) devoted himself to the MC and quickly climbed the ranks.

Even though Amy didn’t really want to come back for Christmas this year, she knew it would be more suspicious if she didn’t come back. So when she finds herself in the middle of the normal Christmas time festivities her father interveens and maybe, just maybe Amy’s life is about to shift onto a different course.

I really enjoyed the Arizona Satan’s Devils MC and cannot wait for more!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When you have wanted that man to come into your life and you become his whole life, well I thought I could not have that until Damian walked into my life but will the situation cause me to lose him.

Bryanna is the niece of a rich socialite Jenny Torzial but when she becomes the embroiled with in a Sex Trafficking ring will she be lost forever or will her white knight come and save her from the gang and herself.

Damian is part of the elite group of Billionaire Bodyguards who’s job normally takes on the mundane of the rich and famous but when he is enrolled to find Jenny’s niece who has vanished can he keep his feels in check long enough to find her.

This is the first book I have read from this author and omg I loved every word and was engulfed into this world hook, line and sinker. First off Damian has been added the ever growing list of book boyfriends and my god he can dominant me anytime he wants lol. The start of the story slows draws you into the world that Bryanna has been brought into and with the secondary characters this brings this world into the for front. As the theme revolves around the seedy world of sex trafficking it is written with sensitivity and humanity. I loved the strong, brave characters of Bryanna and her true spirit is shown within the story and with the Damian characters just add that bit of spice and sexual chemistry that sizzled underneath and when it finally exploded it was brilliant well scripted writing.

If you are looking for a fluffy romance I suggest another read, but if you are looking for well developed characters, a gritty and well written story then this is the story for you. I have already downloaded the two books before and can’t wait to delve into the Billionaire Bodyguards series. Thank you for a great book.

Forged by Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops, #3)Forged by Secrets by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Forged by Secrets is book three in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series by Amy McKinley. This book book was intensely nerve wracking and had my anxiety levels at a high level. The foundation of this series was set in the previous stories, but I have to say that Tyler and Malina stole every thought and feeling from me, making the other stories fade into the background slightly. Tyler was this strong SEAL and the games he played with Malina were funny as well as endearing. While it was frustrating for Malina, I loved the dickens out of it. Malina was an extremely guarded woman, but you get why as you get further into the story. She wants what everyone around her has, but it seems out of reach for her and Tyler. She is not prepared to take the risk on admitting her feelings. She believed she could not afford to be weak. Her and Tyler together were a bigger force than even she could have anticipated. When guards are dropped and true feelings are laid out on the table, all bets are off and Tyler goes to battle for her, all guns blazing.

Amy McKinley has the crafty ability of just unveiling enough to get a reader thinking thy know what will happen without giving it all away. All with an intense subtlety that takes incredible skill. The suspense will stretch every nerve and the anticipation will almost break you. But you will be enthralled, thrilled and blown away by these characters from this special ops team. I love this series, but Tyler and Malina hold that special spot in my memories. 5 stars.

Sons of Sindicato is a thrilling interracial love story between a straight-edged, take no crap lawyer and the criminal, mafioso who fell in love with her. A romance, with lots of crime thrown in, and tons of suspense, which I thoroughly enjoyed reading! This novella sized story pulled me in from the very first page and kept me glued until I finished every last word. I am most definitely looking forward to other books in this series!

Auctioned (Billionaire Bodyguards #3): Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance by Via Mari

This is the first book by Mari that I’ve read. I’ve got to say this book is an amazing read. I can’t wait for the next book in the series. This is the 3rd book in the Billionaire Bodyguards, but can be read as a standalone.

Damian is one of many millionaire bodyguards. He is told to find Brian’s girlfriend’s niece. She has been taken from her family and he’s to find her. Once he lays eyes on her picture he knows that she is meant to be his. The quote I chose for Damian is: “If you knew it would please me for you to stay home and let me take care of the situation this evening, would you have told me then? If you weren’t thinking of me as the man paid to protect you, but as the man that wanted desperately to safeguard you for no other reason than the fact that he has fallen head over heels in love with you, would you have stayed then?”

Bryanna has been held captive with the threat of harm coming to her family. She has always wanted someone who would take control of everything in their relationship. The quote I chose for Bryanna is: “I do trust you, but you know as well as I do that they’ll come for me.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

I have never read any books by this author as romantic suspense isn’t a genre I usually read. I was recommended this book by a friend that had read it, so I decided to give it a try. I must say that I was very impressed. Apparently this is part of a series by this author but each one is a stand-alone book so it’s not like a typical series where you are lost when you start reading. That I loved. She pulled me into the book almost immediately. I found that the characters were very relatable and realistic. I was able to stay engaged in the story thanks to the action taking place and the authors description that made me sense that I was watching this story firsthand. This is a fast-paced story line and not only was I turning the pages quickly, but I was on the edge of my seat during some parts. I was so intrigued that I plan to pick up the first two books in the series that I missed. This is an author I will keep my eyes on for more to come.

I enjoyed this book. It is the 3rd book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series. Even though the characters are linked in previous books  but they are so well written that they can be read as a standalone. The characters are well evolved that you feel like you are living in their lives. This story contains everything i love danger, steamy romance and an attraction that should not be.

Bryanna has been caught in a trafficking ring. The captors have someone on her that means she can’t leave them. Even when she is rescued by Damian.

Damian  has been sent to rescue her my his employer Jenny. He knows it’s going to be a challenge but what he doesn’t know and realise is that the attraction between him and his assignment would be so strong.
Can Damian save Bryanna from the captors? Will Bryanna trust him enough to allow herself to be rescued? Can the attraction between them become something more or is this just got to be strictly business?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Forged by Secrets is the 3rd book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series by Amy McKinley. I have been a fan of Amy McKinley for a long time now and have loved the first two books in this series and was looking forward to the third Hale brother, Tyler getting his book. And what a book he got! This is a fantastic book.
I need to say that when you think you have things worked out about how a book is going to go then you can be sure that Amy McKinley is going to do something different. There’s one particular part in this book that had me with my jaw hanging to the floor. Nope. I’m not giving any spoilers. You’ll have to read it to find out what I mean.
I absolutely loved Tyler and Malina’s story. Tyler is now a Navy SEAL and Malina is an analyst who works with the Navy SEALs. Previously they had gone to high school together and Malina had a huge crush on Tyler but she knows he’s not relationship material so tries to keep away from him.
As always with Amy McKinley there is so much more than the romance going on in this book. She writes amazing storylines that have you hooked from the very first chapter, right up to the very last and Forged By Secrets is no different to the rest. I loved the whole storyline of this book.
If you’ve never read Amy McKinley or you’re just thinking about trying this book then I urge you to give it a try. It’s well worth it.

Bryanna is in a bit of a predicament. She wants her safety but her captors are holding something dear over her head. Thankfully, her aunt is aware she has been taken and has the best searching for her. Damian is the best but he didn’t expect these feelings for Bryanna. He especially didn’t expect Bryanna to run back to her captors to keep what is over her head safe. His job is to get her and what she holds dear to safety and to put her captors where they belong.
Opinion
This is an excellent book. Damian is a total alpha male and Bryanna is new to submission. There is not a lot of sex in it but you get to see a dom introduce his sub to his likes. Damian does explain the difference between what she’s read on the internet and what he likes and that they are not always the same.
The story itself is also good. Knowing what she is trying to keep safe, the reader can empathize with her and see why she kept running back.
This book is part of a series and I have not read any other parts of it. I was able to wade through perfectly fine. I think, though, that I would have enjoyed it more had I read the series up to this point.

I have a serious crush on all three of the Hale Brothers,  but I think Tyler has been my favorite from the beginning.   After reading this book it solidified Tyler as number one.

Malina has so much from her past that I never would have expected.  She has lots of secrets from her past that nobody knows, even her childhood best friend.

Tyler is the ultimate protector and he proves it.  He is a Navy SEAL who will protect his Country and those important to him.

There are so many things to say, but not sure where to start and don’t want risk giving anything away.

If you haven’t read anything by her I highly recommend anything she has written.  I have read several of her books and there is a connection between this series and the Grey Ghost series but can be read as a standalone.

This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book I picked up of hers. I enjoyed this military romance story. It is a well developed story that has characters that not only bring the story to life but also brings the action. The characters are relatable and kept the story engaging. I enjoyed the suspense they brought to the story. It is fast paced, easy to read and entertaining. This is the story of Maggie, Adam and Frank. All three have their differences but will they be able to put things aside? Not only that Maggie is left to decide where her heart lies. What will fate have in store for these three and will someone die before it is all figured out? This is a great story that I had a hard time putting down.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Amy McKinley just amazes me with how well she integrates every book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series. Forged by Secrets is the third book and involves a plot crossing continents and espionage. Gabriela was a grief-stricken teen that had fled Venezuela after her parents and fiancé died. After changing her name to Malina, she does her best to not allow anyone to get emotionally close. Tyler Hale insisted on breaking through her coldness, and she ended up in a hotel room in Vegas. When she woke, she ran from committing to a relationship. Several weeks later Malina arrives at work only to be intercepted by her coworker, Anna. Upon Anna’s advice and seeing international agents at her work station, Malina runs. Uncertain of where to go, she remembers that Tyler had a house on a family-owned island. Tyler was still not back from a mission in Venezuela, but Malina decided to gamble on hiding in hopes that he would return.

I liked the way McKinley kept the intensity of Malina’s emotions realistic. If I was running and facing the obstacles that she encountered, I would be just as nervous. I know the Navy SEAL retains the appearance of being calm, and Tyler’s demeanor matched this. McKinley added the emotional distress he was concealing, and I wondered if the poor guy was going to end up with an ulcer at the end. The end of the book is open-ended just like the prequels, and I am hoping to continue reading any future sequels. I am confidently rating this a solid 5 stars.

Amy McKinley gives us the third book, Forged by Secrets in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series. It is another great addition and is well-written as we know and expect from Amy. This tale is full of drama and secrets, danger and violence, suspense and twists and turns everywhere. If you haven’t read anything by Amy, you are missing out. The danger is real. The chemistry is explosive. The intrigue and tension are palpable. When secrets, lies and truths are revealed will hearts be broken?

On the run Malina turns to the one person who she feels she can trust and the only man she has ever loved but will never have.

Navy SEAL, Tyler is shocked to learn the one woman who got under his skin is missing.

While this started off a little confusing for me (Timeframe). It actually got better as the book went on. I enjoyed getting to know Malina (whose name I love) and even Tyler. The best thing about Tyler is his mindset about Malina. He is fun and flirty and definitely possessive of her. I also enjoyed hanging out with his brothers and their women. One of my fav scenes with them is the Top Gun scene. Just made me smile and smile!

Overall this might be my favorite of the series. And that cover? It add to the delight!
