Found in the Lost (Special Forces: Operation Alpha) (The Leonidas Corporation Book 1)
By: Tarina Deaton
5 out of 5 stars
This book was entertaining and a joy to read. It is a romantic suspense and I loved reading a story that includes archeology and mysteries that include past civilizations. The book pulled me in from the start and I didn’t want to put it down. I loved reading about the characters of Kinley and Shane. I grew to care about them with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. Will they find the treasure? Someone else want it as well. They will do anything to attain it. What does the future hold for Kinley and Shane? Read this book to find out. The story is fast-paced and will have you on the edge of your seat. The romance that is developing between Kinley and Shane is undeniable. Don’t miss out on a book that is intriguing and will not let you go until the last page. I highly recommend it.

Maddie Wade and India Kells have both hooked a new reader! This is my first experience with these authors and they definitely did not disappoint! When I first read the title, I honestly didn’t know this was part of two other series of books. I will now be reading those separate series! But Deadly Alliance can be read as a standalone. This story is written flawlessly. It combines two elite Special Forces agencies in Fortis and Purgatory and travels from the US to the UK on a joint mission to catch a serial killer. The characters are spectacular and immediately draw you in to their lives. The connection between Shane and Emme…..whew! Turn the air up because it’s getting a bit hot in here!
This story is filled to the brim with twists and turns that you won’t see coming! Definitely a 5 star read that will keep you turning the pages! I can’t wait to read more from these authors! I’m looking forward to learning more about these characters and their worlds.

One of my favorite things about the Feisty Lawyers series from Seelie Kay, is that these books pack a whole lot of drama, suspense, action, and romance into concise believable novels. Hope doesn’t stray from the norm of the series. I would highly recommend that you read all the books in order before grabbing this one, the fourth of the series. We get to meet Hope earlier in the series and it really was a neat way to show her growth as a character. There is also other overlapping side stories that weave throughout all of the books. Like I said, these books are multi-dimensional. You feel as if you are reading a suspense novel for the spookiest of times with enough romance and steam to keep that side of your brain interactive as well.
Hope was a fun main character to follow. She is literally one strong woman that I would love to be like in some ways. I found her relatable and her feelings something to marvel at a bit. Hope first is shown to us as a trainee and now we have her in her role facing past demons. Will she be able to heal from the past and find ‘hope’ in the future? I can’t wait to see what will come next in the series and anything else Seelie Kay puts out in the meantime!

Found in the Lost (Special Forces: Operation Alpha) (The Leonidas Corporation Book 1) by Tarina Deaton is a great first book that is right up my ally. I love me some alpha military romance. It is a quick read and is a wild ride through long forgotten Mayan ruins and the hunt for long lost treasures. The suspense and the danger are palpable and it will have your heart pounding as you turn the pages and get lost in the story.
Kinley is going on her first archaeological dig, she is pumped, she is excited, and she is also unaware of the danger that is lurking right at her doorstep. She is responsible for finding something that has been lost for many, many years.
Shane a former Navy SEAL and his mates are on a much needed break and are going to traipse through the jungles of Guatemala. Unfortunately plans change when things become decidedly dangerous for the young woman that they offered a lift to when stranded.
If you are looking for a quick and easy read that ticks all the boxes for entertainment then this is the book to do so. I am so excited to see what Tarina gives us next.

This is the third book in this series and my favorite yet. This is an author I never hesitate to pick up and read. This is a fast paced, engaging story that has romance and steam. This is Neve and Enya’s story. What will happen when they have to work together to stop someone from sabatoging Spicetopia’s grand opening? When it all hits the fan, will they come out together? I loved the suspense as well as their chemistry together. A page turner I highly recommend, a must read!
Hope (Feisty Lawyers Series Book 4) by Seelie Kay 4 Stars
This is the fourth book in the Feisty Lawyers series. The thing I like about this series is that the books are fast paced and action packed. Though they are short, so much happens in each one. I do suggest that you read the others first so that you understand the back story of the characters in this one.
This story centers on Hope Ali. Her and her father Sheik Ali sought asylum in the U.S when she was a teenager. It has always been her dream to work for the agency and at age twenty two it is finally coming true. She has surpassed all her training and is allowed to go out in the field. This mission doesn’t go as planned and Hope ends up broken in more ways than one. Can she survive or is her life in the agency over before it began?

This book is a perfect example of why and how I fell in love with Ms. Deaton’s writing- and why she is one of my ‘one-click, no questions asked’ authors. Then I discover the story has an archaeological theme, with a treasure hunt- AND special forces operatives- and I was one very happy camper!!!! Found in the Lost is the first book in The Leonidas Corporation series by Tarina Deaton. It is the start of a new series and if this first book is anything to go by, the series is set to be fantastic. This is also a cross-over into the Special Forces: Operation Alpha series by Susan Stoker. I will definitely be going to check those books out now, too. Found in the Lost has so much going on in it- in a really superb way. With all the action, adventure, archaeological elements, Mayan ruins, treasure hunting, bandits, suspense, drama, intrigue, trekking through the Guatemalan jungles, betrayal, romance… and so much more that I am having trouble conveying how great this story really is. It would make a fantastic movie- along the lines of Indiana Jones, but with a female archaeologist. It has the feel of Tomb Raider x Indiana Jones x Romancing the Stone- but with its own unique spin and identity- and Ms. Deaton’s wonderful wordsmithing skills which brought everything to life right before my eyes. I was ‘watching’ the story unfold- rather than merely reading it. I was swept up into all the adventure as it unfolded- and I loved every minute. There is also a flirty, fun feel to the story- which balances all the action, danger, and emotive elements so wonderfully well. I loved everything about this book!! I was all in, enthralled right from the beginning- up until the end of the very last page. I loved the friendly banter, camaraderie and bonds that the characters have- especially Shane and his friends and team. The humour that Ms Deaton was able to infuse into the story had me smiling so hard at times, that my cheeks hurt. There was also some edge of my seat, heart in my mouth moments, where I was caught in a page flipping frenzy, reading along with all the dramatic, tense, and emotive developments- desperately needing to know how everything played out. That’s how invested I was in the characters and their story. I couldn’t put the book down- and read it in one sitting. So, if you like a suspenseful romantic adventure with some wonderful characters- that’s completely captivating and totally unforgettable. Then this is definitely the book for you.

Found In The Lost is the first book in the Leonidas Corporation series by Tarina Deaton. It was my first time reading any of this author’s work and I was very impressed by how good this book was. I absolutely adored the 2 main characters. Kinley Dunn has recently translated an ancient Mayan script and is now on her way to be part of the dig. This becomes a journey that is fraught with danger, mystery, intrigue, suspense and romance. Former SEAL Shane Ivers is on a relaxing trip exploring Mayan ruins when his path crosses with Kinley. If you are a believer of love at first sight then you’ll love this book as Kinley and Shane are both immediately smitten with each other. This book is very fast paced and will grab you from the very first page and not let you go. I was totally gripped by this book and didn’t put it down until it was finished. The story flows very well and the characters are realistic and believable. It is certainly not a predictable story as the author throws in a few curveballs that will have you screaming WTF!! If the rest of this series is anywhere as good as this first book then I’m sure this is going to become one of my favourite series’.

5-Stars
Found in the Lost (Special Forces: Operation Alpha)(The Leonidas Corporation Book 1) by Tarina Deaton was an exciting, action packed, romantic read. I was hooked from the beginning. The author immediately pulls readers in with the suspicious man at the airport followed shortly after with an attempted attack by bandits. This book was fast paced and easy to read. There was not one dull moment with this adventure. It also included some steamy scenes between main characters Shane and Kinley. Speaking of which, they were developed well and excellent to follow. I loved watching the romance between them build. Also Ace and Phantom were great supporting characters to the story. They were definitely just as attractive and mouth watering as Shane. I really enjoyed this novel and I highly recommend it.

Hope by Seelie Kay is the fourth book in the Feisty Lawyers series. I do think it is worth reading the other books first as you will get the most out of this book if you do. This author has created yet another amazing read. You are sucked right into Hope’s journey. By the end of the first chapter you are so engrossed by what is happening that there is no chance you will want to put the book down. The way this story is developed had me on the edge of my seat. I just had to find out how it was going to end and what would eventually become of Hope. This series is absolutely brilliant and if you haven’t read it then I would recommend you doing so immediately.

I loved the first half of the story. It moves along and has enough excitement to keep me glued to the pages. That Hope! She is Wonder Woman! When the action started in the second half of the book I was again hooked. What these people go through is crazy! I enjoyed this book and this series. It seems it might start a new direction after this one. We shall see!
It is great to see some of the characters we have come to love in previous stories. I look forward to more.

Kay continues to excite and enthrall me in this latest book of hers in my hands. I was glued to this book and my seat as I navigated this thrilling tale. The characters leapt off the pages and I simply couldn’t walk away from the book until I finished the last page. Highly recommended – simply fantastic!

Hope (Feisty Lawyers Series Book 4) by Seelie Kay was an excellent action packed romance. There is so much wrapped up in this short book that it was hard to put down. It can easily be read in one setting. Although the story has a strong focus on Hope, there are a lot of things in the previous books of the series that lead up to a lot of detail with this story. Hope has grown up a lot since she was originally intr6and is training for special ops herself. Someone from her long ago past surfaces and a lot of crazy things happen. I loved how strong willed she was and determined her character was. It was definitely a fun read following Hope and I believe this is my new favorite book in this series. I highly recommend it!

Found in the Lost by Tarina Deaton is the first book in the Leonidas Corporation series. This is clearly the start of another great series by this author. First and foremost I loved the feel I got for this book. The instant I read the blurb I was picturing Indiana Jones style scenes of a race against time to find a lost city. E book had an excitement about it that v really draw me in. I loved the characters as well. They were engaging and easy to get behind. I got lost in their story straight away. This is another great book by an author I have come to really enjoy. I look forward to book 2!

Seelie Kay is an author that I highly recommend if you like suspense stories. Hope is the fourth book in the Feisty Lawyers series. If you have not read the first three books, I would recommend you read them to get the most enjoyment out of Hope. One thing that Seelie Kay that I love is I am head over heels before the end of the first paragraph. She grabs me and I cannot stop reading until the end of the book. For that reason, I highly suggest you leave enough time so that you can read the book in one sitting. The characters are fully developed and the plot keeps you going because you want to know what is going to happen next. It is said that only those who have been broken and hit rock bottom knows the strength that it takes to pull themselves out. Hope is that person. She wanted to join “the Agency” which is the organization of her dreams. “The Agency” is an elite group of attorneys who will go undercover to “right wrongs” the law can’t. There is one problem with her becoming apart of “the Agency” someone wants her to lose hope. Will Hope lose hope or will Hope rise above all? Will her past come to get her? I highly recommend reading if you want the answers to this mystery.

5 Stars
Tarina Deaton is absolutely one of my favorite authors and I was so excited to grab this book. One negative…It wasn’t long enough. That’s not to say the book needed more, it felt like a complete story, I’m just greedy and wanted more. One of many positives…This is a book 1 which means there’s more to come!
I don’t normally like the instant love thing but the way this one was written it made sense and it still felt real. I’m not at all into archaeology and didn’t really understand all of that but it didn’t matter. The story itself was about an ex navy seal, Shane trying to figure out what is next and Kinley (love that name) an archaeologist who translated an ancient Mayan text, and those that want that information and will do just about anything to get it. This was a fast moving story with a lot of content that moved smoothly and made for an awesome read. I loved both of the main characters and there were others that were part of the Leonidas group that I enjoyed as well and hope that’s the route this series goes so we get to know more about them.
I highly recommend this story as well as anything this author writes, I fell in to her Combat Hearts series and after reading this I’m ready to go back and read those all over again.

Someone is trying to sabotage Spicetopia’s grand opening. Neve Romano, Director of Security, and Enya Moore, Director of Public Relations, have never gotten along. But they find themselves thrust right into the middle of the melee…and at the mercy of a madman.
Can they work together to keep themselves and the park alive?
And can they keep their passion from sparking a whole new fire?
Fire & Ice is Book 3 in the Spicetopia series and contains suspense, BDSM and other elements that are intended for readers 18+. Though these sweet and spicy books each function as standalones, here is the preferred reading order:

Another great great in the Satan Devils Colorado Chapter by Manda Mellett. Her books always have a way of bringing me into the story and holding me there till the very end. I may have not liked how the two main characters were brought together but they went through so much and together they came out stronger. I connected with Mel so much in this book and wish I could have read even more! I love how the Vegas trip and getting to meet so many more of the crew Ana Insight the crew! I love this story, I love this author. Each story in my view gets better and better! I can’t wait to read more and honestly have already started reading more of her other series! I give this book five stars.
I love this book. This series gets better and better. I highly recommend reading the previous books in this series. One of my favorite things about this author is how she can pull me into her story, keep me engaged and takes me on an adventure of action and suspense. Hope joins the organization of her dreams until she was left for dead. Will she heal and find the hope she needs? Great characters and great twists and turns. This is a must read, I highly recommend it.

A Dark Sparrow Box Set by India Kells My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Such a great set of books. The story in each book is filled with steamy romance, drama and action making for an excellent read, and this is only the first 3 of the six brothers!
In these books Lazarus King recruits Beatrice, his friend and the woman in charge of sending people out on dangerous rescue missions. Lazarus’ mission? To save all his bastard brothers from their father, Jamieson Finch.
The first books is about Aleksei and Deva. Deva is such a strong woman. The way she pick up the pieces of her life after getting out of her father’s grip is admirable. When she chooses to help with wounded soldier’s rehab because of her brother, my heart melted, she is an amazing woman. When she meets Aleksei, it is no walk in the park. He pisses her off with almost everything he says but she still can’t deny the attraction they have.
The second book is about Zoe and Archer. I just love Zoe. She is such a strong, independent, beautiful woman yet she is fragile and slightly self conscious. I am super impressed with her skills as a translator. The chemistry between her and her new boss Archer is off the charts. My heart breaks for Zoe, as sometimes she feels like she is not good enough for a man like him and then other times I want to scream at them both to just communicate better! The drama that unfolds with Archer’s new business buy out and Zoe’s brother is super exciting and along with all the action, fighting and plotting, really gave the book that extra edge. The secondary characters are very lovable and just as interesting to get to know. I would highly recommend this book and I personally can not wait to read Kai and Izzy’s story.
The third book is Izzy and Kai. Kai’s father is a douche and Kai will stop at nothing to bring his father’s company down while also dealing with his feelings for Izzy. Izzy was brought in to help bring Kai’s father’s business down but at the same time her past secrets are revealed. Izzy is a strong woman, and her personality had me loving her from the very beginning.
These books can all be read as stand alones but they are MUCH better read in order, because they are all as equally amazing as the next one.

No one knows what they’re made of until they’re broken. At the tender age of twenty-two, Hope Ali has finally joined the organization of her dreams, the Agency, an elite group of attorneys who go undercover to right wrongs the law can’t. The requirements are stringent, the training exhausting.
After seeking asylum in the United States when she was sixteen, Hope and her father, Sheikh Harun Ali, settled in a quiet Wisconsin town, hiding from those who had placed a price on their heads. Still, she excelled, finishing her university and law school education by the time she was twenty-one.
Now, after breezing through the Agency training program, Hope appears to be indestructible—until she is assigned a simple task during the rescue of an author among the disappeared in the UAE. The task? To distract the woman’s captors until she can be spirited out of the country.
Unfortunately, a member of MISix has other plans. In an attempt to disrupt the Agency’s mission, she tips off one of Hope’s enemies, alerting them to her location. Hope manages to lead the author’s captors on a merry dance, freeing others to rescue her, until she is unexpectedly confronted with a violent angry mob intent on harm.
She is left bloody and broken. No one knows whether Hope’s body or her mind will heal. Suddenly Hope is no longer just her name. It is also the one thing she must embrace to find her new normal.

The Club starts searching for him but its like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Devil’s Dilemma is the fourth book in the Satan’s Devils MC – Colorado Chapter by author Manda Mellett. After Melissa’s boyfriend pulls a disappearing act, she is left with no choice but to lean on his brothers with the Satan’s Devil MC and especially Pyro who has become a good friend to Melissa. From the start Melissa thinks she is less than, her boyfriend leaving doesn’t help this and Pyro and the guys of the club band together to make Melissa feel better about herself. But nothing is what it seems and the club must once again deal with problems they never saw coming. I think this series just keeps getting better and better! I think Melissa and Pyro are now my favorite characters. I loved the way Pyro supported Melissa with everything and couldn’t love her enough when she needed him. There were points in the story that I would have loved to have reached into the book and shook people but never Melissa and Pyro they were awesome. I look forward to seeing what will happen next…hopefully back to Las Vegas!!

Devil’s Dilemma is the fourth book in the Colorado Chapter branch of Manda Mellett’s Satan’s Devils MC series. As I’ve come to expect from the series, it’s an action-packed romance that’s at times tragic and heart-warming. Melissa is the protagonist of this one. I was particularly drawn to her because of her love of baking – I read a good chunk of this book while waiting for things in the oven! She’s uncomfortable about her weight and worries about her appearance but grows to trust others and how they see her and overcome some of her anxieties. The path to a happily ever after is rarely smooth, and for Melissa there are some pretty big twists and turns along the way. It’s a real page-turner, and particularly satisfying as things start making sense. As well as continuing the story of the Colorado Chapter, Devil’s Dilemma gives us an insight into the Vegas chapter of the MC. I really like how the stories link together, allowing us to catch up with familiar characters and introducing us to new characters who we’ll see developing later. There really is a sense of family and it adds depth and makes you care a lot more about the characters. For me, this is a four-star read. I’d never read any MC books before I started on this series, and it’s got me hooked! There are various places you could start – perhaps at the beginning of the main Satan’s Devils MC series or in the first Colorado Chapter book. Or, you can jump in here and discover the Satan’s Devils through Melissa’s eyes!

Devil’s Dilemma by Manda Mellet is the fourth book in the Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter.
Holy cow this book wasn’t what I expected, it was so much better! The story with Melissa, Pyro and Skull was a lot deeper then I realized and I found myself shedding tears a few times during this story.
Melissa deals with so much pain and heartache and it made me feel so bad for her. I wanted to hug her, and try to make her feel better.
What can I say about Pyro? He’s an amazing man and though he is a big burly biker he has a heart of gold and he shows Melissa and us that several times throughout this book.
I fall in love with this series and the guys in Colorado a little more with each book and I’m so looking forward to keeping up with them and their lives.

A Dark Sparrow Box Set includes the first three books in India Kells’ Dark Sparrow series! I have read the whole series and I love the present we have been given – getting three in one! If you want to get a start on a binge reading of a great series then this set is for you! (I promise you will not finish with just these three, you want to reach for the next one in the series as well and then we will be in the same boat … waiting!) Dark Sparrows gives us the stories of six men fathered by the same bastard evil man! In the set we meet three of the brothers … they are as different AND as same as they can be! From orphaned and alone to rich and controlled and then a seemingly beach bum with a deadly skill set! Each of the men come with a woman that has her own secrets and pain … I have really hard time to tell you who is my favourite, it changes with each book (meaning with each brother I change my favourite) so who knows what will happen when the next brother enters (well, he already has so I know I will change my favourite order)! The Box Set includes the story of the underground fighter Aleksei and MC princess Deva (Lost Bastard, Book #1), of the ruthless business man Archer and professional translator/code breaker Zoe (Cold Bastard, Book #2), and of former Delta Force/beach bum Kai and Isabel, a woman hiding way more you can even imagine (Wild Bastard). You will get drunk on suspense and adventure and romance and will feel such a book hangover when you get to the end!

A Dark Sparrow Box Set is the first three books in the Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells. This set contains Lost Bastard, Cold Bastard and Wild Bastard. All three stories are a wonderful reads and can be read as standalones.
Lost Bastard features Aleksie and Deva. This book is full of action, mystery, danger and romance. This book had me hooked from the first page and I couldn’t put it down. The characters development is wonderful and the situations are intense.
Cold Bastard is the second book in the Dark Sparrow series by India Kells. I love a strong willed, kickass female lead and you will get that in this book. This story had me hooked from the very first page, and I read it in one sitting. It is full of action, suspense, humor and romance. The incredible writing skills and detailed characters made this a great read.
Wild Bastard is the third book in the Dark Sparrows Series by India Kells. This book hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down till the last. This is Isabel and Kai’s story. They have so much chemistry, but also a bunch of baggage from their past. My emotions were taking big swings during this book, and I loved the action. I would highly recommend this book, series and author. I’m really looking forward to seeing what Ms.Kells has in store for us next. Review by @sunbarn

Devil’s Dilemma: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #4) by Manda Mellett – Review by Randall Murphy This book gives a wonderful Motorcycle Club series. If you haven’t read any of the Satan’s Devils series, you can still enjoy this book, but the other characters mentioned in the book will not be familiar to you. If you are already a fan, this is Skull and Melissa’s story. It gives some back story that occurs prior to book 3. It continues their story and allows you to see what they go through before they find their Happily Ever After. As always, the characters are wonderfully written and very real.
