The Fire God Tour (Moore Family Saga Book 3) by Michele Sims. This is the 3rd book in the Moore Family Saga Series and I think this is my favorite! This is the story of Miles Moore aka Ari, International Hip Hop Sensation who loves the life of a famous Star most of the time. There are the death threats and life on the road but the fast cars, fast women and traveling all over the world make up for it.

Bella is a beautiful, energetic and fiercely independent and she’s deadly afraid of fire which Miles is famous for in his shows. He is a little obsessed with fire and he can’t figure out a woman so afraid of it. He even starts calling Bella the Ice Queen but as he gets to know her better and feels a strong attraction to her he begins to wonder if he can be with just one woman. Will Bella get over her fear of Fire and love long enough for them to try. Will Miles learn to love just one woman for a relationship to blossom? Read The Fire God Tour to find out!

I loved Two Hearts Under Fire, by Tamara Ferguson. I have read most of the books in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance series, and have liked every one I’ve read. This, like the others, can be read as a stand alone book. The main 2 characters are unique to this story, but some of the supporting characters overlap the other stories. This is the story of Russ Quinlan and Claire Ellis. I love the characters and the connections made. There are some secrets revealed at the end, which I loved! Russ is an airman, and is being framed and on trial, being blamed for conspiring and setting up a capture on one of his prior missions. One day after his trial, he goes to the house of his friend Brand. Brand isn’t home, but he meets Claire there, and before they even have time to exchange pleasantries, they are being shot at. They go on the run together, avoiding the gunman, not even sure which of them was the target. Their escape turns into a grand adventure, where sparks fly as they try to find safety. But, is the chemistry between them real, or the result of the adrenaline rush of being on the run? Read and find out!

Sims has created quite the masterpiece with this series and this latest installment is just another treasure. Fantastic characters, riveting storylines, a little fantasy, some romance…just a little bit of something for everyone. From start to finish I just really was glued to this book. Simply the best installment yet!

Bound by Via Mari is the second book in the Torzial Affair series. You really do need to read this series in order as it does follow the same characters. Out of all the books I have read by this author for me this one has been the most emotional so far. I could really feel Jenny’s pain and the struggle that she is going through each day. I enjoyed her character on the first book but there was something in this book that just made me connect with her even more. The story was really intense. I was sucked completely in to it and devoured the book in one sitting. I am excited to see what else is to come from this series.

The Fire God Tour (Moore Family Saga Book 3) By Michele Sims. Again I found myself completely drawn into the world this author has created. The characters are complex and highly entertaining. The story pulls readers in from page one, I knew I was in for a great read and that I’d be up way past my bedtime because I couldn’t put it down. Ari and Bella just have a special place in my heart now each of them apart are great characters but put them together and magic happens in word form. It’s well written and paced nicely. Can’t wait to see where the author takes readers next. Five stars for this story and highly recommend it.

Two Hearts Under Fire is the eighth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance series. It can be read as a standalone.
This story starts off at a quick pace and doesn’t slow down. It is full of suspense and mystery as Russ and Claire try to stay one step ahead of the people pursuing them. I enjoyed the way the Claire character was written. Even though she is on the run from an abusive ex, she is strong, resourceful, and can hold her own pretty well.
Two Hearts Under Fire is an entertaining read that will keep you hooked from the beginning.

THE FIRE GOD TOUR is the third book in the “Moore Family Saga” series and while it can be read as a stand-alone, I think it would be a richer reading experience to read them in order. There is an overall arch to this series that carries important details.
This was my favorite book of the series. Watching how Miles/Ari is able to grow and mature (or catch up with his maturity) and see how he handles it all was a pleasure to read.
This is a series that is written pretty seamlessly. Introduction of new characters are timely and held my attention, the way the story ebbs and flows carries its own melody and overall is just an enjoyable series to read. ****

Two hearts Under Fire by Tamara Ferguson is the eighth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior series. This is a strong series and worth reading although all the books can be read as stand-alone’s. Tamara Ferguson does it every time. She really knows how to write a book that will grab your attention and keep you turning the pages. The characters worked so well together. There was chemistry that was not only believable but also engaging. The story was fast paced and exciting. If you haven’t done so already you should give this series’s a read.

Irresistible Heroes – Heroes of Your Heart by Various Authors
5-Stars
Irresistible Heroes – Heroes of Your Heart by Various Authors is an amazing collection of magnificent stories. This collection features so many wonderful characters and I loved the romance. Having read Tamara Ferguson before, her story really stuck out to me. Her character Sam was my favorite. She was very strong and brave despite her amputation. Ben seemed perfect for her.
I really enjoyed this collection and felt the storyline of each book was easy to follow and flowed easily from page one all the way to the end. Being an Anthology full of various romances, I feel that it could be enjoyed a wide audience.

Irresistible Heroes is a collection of stories that will steal your heart! Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, Suzanne Jenkins, Cynthia Cooke, Alicia Street, Alyssa Bailey, Stephanie Queen and Patrice Wilton came together to give us a present that makes the current hot summer nights scorching! I have read everything Tamara Ferguson has ever written and almost all that Stephanie Queen has written so there was no doubt in my head whether to pick this collection up or not AND of course, neither of them let me down! Tamara Ferguson’s Two Hearts Unlikely Heroes took me back to Crystal Rock, Wisconsin, with Captain Samantha Coldwell and Captain Ben Nash. It brings the terrorists to the wounded warriors’ center and I loved meeting up with familiar faces! I promise you that you will enjoy this unlikely heroes story! Stephanie Queen’s Never Gone By is the opening to another of her fine series called The Zero to Hero and I cannot wait to see what comes next! There are so many heroes she could have chosen among and I am very pleased that she decided to open with Joe and let’s not forget about our Hollywood costume designer turned starlet Mae! I used the opportunity to discover new writers and I can say that She’s Having a Baby by Suzanne Jenkins will leave you grabbing your tissues when she packs into the opening of her new series taking place in San Diego family, duty, action, love, loss, heartache and new beginnings! It was not only our leading couple but a whole family of heroes aka supporting cast! This collection has something for everyone so I warmly recommend you to pick up and spend a cool weekend inside or a breezy day outside with it!

Two Hearts Under Fire (Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Book 8) By: Tamara Ferguson 5 out of 5 stars
The story Two Hearts Under Fire (Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Book 8) by Tamara Ferguson is a book that I loved reading. It pulled me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until I had read the final page. I loved reading about the characters of Russ Quinlan and Claire Ellis. They find themselves the target of an assassin. They enlist the help of friends Brand and Sarah. Russ and Claire also find themselves on the run. There is an attraction and connection between them. They can’t be distracted by it now. What does the future hold for Russ and Claire? Read this book to find out. There are times in this story that I was turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. The story has both suspense and a deepening romance. I love Claire’s character as she is strong and intelligent. Russ is a man that is haunted by his past in Iraq. I grew to care about Claire and Russ with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. I also enjoyed reading about the additional characters that are introduced in the story. Many of them are helpful to Russ and Claire. Then there are those with their own agenda and plans. Don’t miss out on a thrilling read that you won’t want to put down. I highly recommend reading it.

Jenny Torzial and Brian Carrington’s steamy romance and erotic exploration continue as the couple finds themselves challenged by menacing external forces of the mafia and a legal system hell-bent on convicting Jenny for the brutal murder of her ex.
Jenny’s outward display of strength is in direct contrast to her inner turmoil, and the real-life struggles she is forced to face. Is she strong enough to deal with not knowing when and where the next threat in what seems a never-ending string will come? Will the uncertainty of who to trust lead to an early death or a lifetime of incarceration?
Is it too much for a man who struggles with commitment? Can Brian truly protect her? Will Jenny be able to fully submit to Brian’s dominance, allowing him to take the reins in life as well as the bedroom?
Via Mari lives in the Midwest with her husband and their loveable fur baby. As a child who was raised in both the United States and the United Kingdom, she spent countless hours traveling and developed a passion for the written word at a young age.
She is an avid reader of romance. In fact, you can still find her curled up in an overstuffed chair, especially during winter when the wood fire is crackling and popping, reading a page-turning novel until the early hours of the morning.
As she began researching and writing love scenes for her own series, it became apparent there seemed to be a cultural divide between what people believed was normal sexual behavior, or vanilla, and that which people considered BDSM. She enjoys creating characters and scenes that allow the reader to safely explore what they would and would not be willing to try.

Shattered Melody is a stand alone novella by Amy McKinley though we there are some connections to the Grey Ghost series. I’m hoping this is a bridge between Grey Ghost and a new series. (Fingers crossed)
I liked Emma, but also felt so bad for her. She is still hurting after three years and deals with that pain the only way she knows how. She isolates herself with only her cat and music to keep her company.
I loved the little bit of suspense thrown in for good measure. Each book I read by Ms. McKinley makes me like her just a bit more.

The Fire God Tour by Michele Sims is the third book in the Moore Family Saga. This book could be read as a stand-alone however I would recommend reading them in order as they follow the same characters throughout. This series seems to get better with each book. The characters are always so interesting and engaging. Ari has to be one of my favourite characters so far in this series. It really felt like that was a brilliant character progression with him. Bella was the perfect accompaniment to him as well. The story was a great as the previous ones and it has been a fantastic series so far, I can’t wait to see what else is to come.

Irresistible Heroes is a superb Anthology of stories from some very talented, best-selling and award-winning authors. The stories are all so great- all quite individual to the author, but all are based on the same theme- which is “Irresistible Heroes”. We get to meet all kinds of heroes, and heroines- from cops, to fire fighters, Military personnel, Veterans, and Doctors- there’s a hero here that is bound to capture your attention, and a piece of your heart in the process. This Anthology is made up of eight wonderful stories that are all really well written, interesting, engaging, and entirely enjoyable. The stories are:
Two Heart Unlikely Heroes By: Tamara Ferguson
This was definitely one of my favourites of the collection. I love Ms. Ferguson’s books and have read pretty much everything she has written. This is the ninth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Series- but you don’t need to have read the rest of the series to enjoy this story- as it reads wonderfully well as a standalone. But having said that, you, like me will probably develop a bit of an addiction to her stories and get the desire to explore the rest of her books. Something I have discovered now I have read a lot of her books is the way Ms. Ferguson has cleverly built a bigger picture, a cast of believable and endearing characters, and a supportive community in which to base her stories (for the most part). Everything comes to life, and through each book you begin to see more interconnected details, characters, and situations. This book is one of my favourites of her, bringing suspense, terrorists, danger and intrigue to Crystal Rock- as we follow Captain Samantha Caldwell and AFOSI Agent Captain Ben Nash on a bit of an adventure as the danger mounts and they try to piece everything together. As always, Ms. Ferguson doesn’t disappoint!
Simply Love By: Natalie Ann
This is the third book in the Love Collection series by Natalie Ann. It is such a sweet, and emotive story that had me rooting for the characters right from the get go. Gemma and Blake have both endured quite a lot of emotional pain in their lives. So, will they finally find the new beginning and second chance they have both searching for? This book is really worth the read to find out!
She’s Having a Baby By: Suzanne Jenkins
Oh Ms. Jenkins you’ve done it again! Another great read- but I highly recommend having a box of tissues on hand, as this story will give your emotions a bit of a battering. This is the first book in Ms. Jenkins new series, The Saints of San Diego. With friendship, family, duty, action, drama, love, loss, heartache, pain, joy, and new beginnings- this story may be short, but it packs quite a punch. We meet our main characters, but also a whole cast of wonderful secondary characters- a family of heroes who completely won me over. What a memorable way to start off a new series- and if this is any example, the rest of the series is set to be just as great! I can’t wait!
Johnny’s Girl By: Cynthia Cooke
This is the second book in the Deadly Secrets series by Cynthia Cooke. Full of intrigue, mystery, danger, suspense, action, drama, and more- this romantic suspense had me hooked right from the get-go. This is my first read by Ms. Cooke and I really didn’t know what to expect going in, but now I am happy to say that I will definitely be exploring more of Ms. Cooke’s work in the future. This is one of the main reasons I love reading anthologies, because it’s a chance to discover new authors to add to your TBR, and therefore more books to explore!!! WIN-WIN!! Well done!
Fire Me Up By: Alicia Street
We meet a hunky firefighter looking for a fresh start and a shy schoolteacher who shakes things up and brings a bit of a spark to his life. This was such a quick and easy read- a sweet story with a witty, captivating (second chance) romance…. which also has an emotional element to it too. Well worth the read!
Seal of Refuge By: Alyssa Bailey
Who doesn’t love a sexy Navy SEAL- so add a unlucky in love school teacher, a few surprises, a little bit of drama, and a wonderful romance- and this story really takes off. I didn’t expect to like this story as much as I did- they characters really won me over. A great story to start off Ms. Bailey’s Guardian’s of Refuge series. I for one, can’t wait for the next instalment!
Never Gone By: Stephanie Queen
This is the first book in the Zero to Hero Series by Stephanie Queen. Another 5 Star read in this exciting collection. I love Ms. Queen’s books and was really excited to see it was the start to a new series. Zero Go Team is made up of so many heroes, I can’t wait to follow all the character’s stories as they release. As expected from Ms. Queen, this story is really well written, sexy, spicy, intriguing, and original. The characters pulled me into the story, and I became completely invested in them and their story- devouring every word! I loved meeting Joe and Mae- and I can’t wait for more.
Handle With Care By: Patrice Wilton
Handle With Care is the second book in the Wounded Warrior Series by Patrice Wilson. Shane Dawson was a medic serving in Iraq when he is captured and tortured. He may be home from the war, but he left a piece of himself behind, trading it for a whole lot of pain and some difficult personal demons. Lauren Reynolds is a skilled ER doctor- a single mother with a young son who has ADHD. Things haven’t been easy since her husband died, but she and her son Josh make a pretty good team. Meeting Shane sets them both on a path they never expected. Taking a chance on love doesn’t come easy, or without some risk. What happens you ask? Well you really should read all the emotional details for yourself…. it’s definitely worth your time. A story of trauma, pain, addiction, struggles, emotion, friendship, trust, romance, spirit, redemption, and love.
As you can see, we meet a variety of charming heroes who will all inspire, captivate, and entertain you. They will entice you into the book and keep you there, avidly turning the pages to follow each as their story unfolds. So, if you are looking for a book that is full of heroes, romance, and stories that you can connect with- then this is definitely the anthology for you…… And hello, eight books for the price of one…. WINNING!!!!

TWO HEARTS UNDER FIRE (Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Book 8) by Tamara Ferguson
5 out of 5 stars
While on the run, something crazy happens along the way. Can two wounded hearts under fire survive love?
Two Hearts under fire is the 8th book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior series written by Ms. Ferguson and I loved it. This book/series is awesome we have romance, intrigue, suspense, and we even get to see a few couples from past books. The characters are well written I just loved Russ and Claire.
Airman Russ Quinlan’s team were targeted and captured during transport in Iraq three years ago. When Russ discovers the only other survivor was left for dead after a brutal assault by insurgents, he realizes his covert mission had resulted in deadly consequences, and someone was trying to frame him.
He goes to enlist the help from AFOSI Agent Brand Reardon, and he finds Claire Ellis instead. A close friend of Brand’s fiancé Sarah, Claire’s staying at Brand’s Quantico apartment temporarily, hiding out from an abusive ex-husband who she’s sure is trying to kill her.
While in the lobby of Brands apartment an assassin attempts to gun them both down, Russ is able to avert the attack, turning the weapon on the killer.
But who was the intended target? Can they stop the assassin before they hit their intended target? Will they find out who is behind the framing of Russ?

Yet again another fantastic 5 star read from the talented Ms McKinley! I’ve read quite a few books by this author now, so many that I don’t even bother to read the blurb anymore because I’m confident I will love whatever I read and as expected Shattered Melody was no exception. This may have been a novella but it definitely was not short on content! I was hooked from the very beginning especially as the action started straight away! I was on the edge of my seat from the very beginning and there were some almighty twists and turns! I fell in love with the characters Emma and Reese straight away. The author wrote about them so beautifully and in a way that I really felt a connection to them, I felt like I really knew everything about them. Although I loved Reese, it was Emma that was the character for me in this story; there really was just something about her that drew me to her straight away. A truly amazing read that I highly recommend! I cannot wait (as usual) to read more from Ms McKinley again in the future!
4 stars or 5 stars…I was thinking that the only way this story could have been better is if it had been longer but really then it would have seemed to drag on. This novella was short and to the point. Main character Emma is easy to love, to laugh and cry with. So definitely 5 stars.
The secondary characters of Danny, Reece, Linda and the friends from college are all an intricate part of Emma’s life. They are all suspicious in their dealings with Emma, leaving me guessing right up until the end. I had my doubts that a quick story could have a happy ending but my faith in Amy McKinley never wavered.
The story line was super easy to follow even with the flash backs. Those looks into the past helped explain Emma’s character and feelings so well.
Here’s hoping that these characters will have another adventure…soon.
Shattered Melody by Amy McKinley is a romantic suspense novella. This book is a quick read but it is so good!
Emma lives her life in a remote mountain cabin and prefers it that way after experiencing a tragic event a few years prior. She can’t be too safe so she takes extra precautions to make sure her location isn’t easily identified. She likes to keep people at a distance if she can help it. During a snowstorm, there’s a knock on her door and even though it would go against her better judgement she welcomed her neighbor in and actually decided getting to know him wouldn’t be terrible. She feels she made the right decision trusting Reese until a few weird things start happening. Emma second guesses Reese and isn’t sure what to do. Will Reese be the step Emma needed to reclaim her life or did she make a mistake trusting him?
This book was really enjoyable to read. Definitely some twists that I didn’t expect so once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down!
You know how sometimes you just want a quick and addicting read without all the extra details that make books longer? SHATTERED MELODY is the perfect book that does just that. It has 1 fade to black sex scene so I could recommend this to my elderly friend’s book club. It has breathtaking suspense, back ground characters who don’t take up any extra time and a clever cat who knows to stay away from the cold.
I read this story in about 30 minutes as it’s only about 60 pages long. Like I said it is quick and right to the point.
I’ve always enjoyed this author’s writing and will continue to read and recommend the stories they write.
Definitely read this quick story, you won’t be disappointed.
The Fire God Tour (Moore Family Saga Book 3) By: Michele Sims 5 out of 5 stars
The story The Fire God Tour (Moore Family Saga Book 3) by Michele Sims is a book I loved reading. Not only is the storyline wonderful it has amazing characters. It pulled me in right from the beginning and I didn’t want to put the book down until I had finished the last page. I loved reading about the characters of Miles Moore and Bella Wahlberg. Miles is the international hip-hop sensation “Ari.” He is obsessed with fire and is a wonderful singer, musician, and lyricist. He is also finding himself attracted to Bella. Bella is a woman who is good at her job as the chief of marketing for Miles. She is an asset to Miles company. She is also finding herself with an attraction to him. She has a fear of fire; he has called her the Ice Queen. Feelings and emotions being felt by both. Will they take a chance on a relationship? What does the future hold for Bella and Miles? Read this book to find out. This story has some moments of suspense when I wondered what would happen next. I also enjoyed the bantering back and forth between Mile and Bella. There are scenes that are romantic and emotional. It is great to read about the characters that have been brought forward from the other books in the series as well as the new characters. Don’t’ miss out on a wonderful story that has unforgettable characters. Highly recommended reading.

I always know that when I pick up an Amy McKinley novel I am in for a treat. Shattered Melody was no different, in fact it quickly became one of my favorites of hers. I never saw what was coming, let alone that it would rock my world in just the first few pages of this book. While the characters that I loved were shattered, the novel was a story of their healing. And boy was it a beautiful one to read. This is a novella so just a tad shorter than what you would typically expect from McKinley, but never did I feel that affected the quality or enjoyment of the story. I truly can only say it left me wanting more in the sense that I needed more of the MC’s, especially Emma.
I am not going to dive into details about the story, the blurb gives just enough away to not ruin anything and I can’t possibly find a way to add to that without ruining things for the reader. What I can say is this book’s characters are so beautifully written. I walked away feeling as if I personally knew Emma and Reese. I loved them like I would a family member. The details of the scenes make you feel as if you are right there with them as well. A beautiful location where I was able to cool down a bit during these hot summer days. I devoured this in quick measure and I am so looking forward to seeing what we will see next from the ever talented Amy McKinley.
Shattered Melody is a short suspense read by Amy McKinley whose Gray Ghost series I have fell in love with a while ago so when Shattered Melody popped up on my radar, I picked it up and I didn’t regret it! You can read it as a standalone though the main squeeze Reese Miller is part of the Gray Ghost family … Shattered Melody is the story of Emma Dawson who has isolated herself after her stalked killed her fiancé 3 years earlier. She thinks that not getting close to anyone and simply living for her music, she will be safe … it also means that she is highly suspicious of everyone so when Reese moves to a cottage not far from hers and the attraction between them cannot be denied she starts wondering if Reese is her knight in shiny armour or the one she needs to be afraid of … As said, the story is fast and furious and you will absolutely love it and I promise you after getting a taste of Amy’s writing, you will want more so go and pick up her Gray Ghost series so you can meet the guys Reese is close to!

Shattered Melody is a standalone book by Amy McKinley, that ties in with her Gray Ghost series. I was drawn to it as the protagonist, Emma, is a songwriter. I liked how the songwriting happens regularly throughout the book as Emma processes her grief and other emotions. It reminded me of a character in another of McKinley’s books, Liv, who used sculpture as an outlet. The way the music is described is lovely, but I wish we’d been able to see the lyrics! Shattered Melody is quite a short book, and so the story is quite fast paced. The ending did feel a little bit rushed – once things started developing they developed quickly! – but generally I found it flowed well. For me, this is a four star book. If you’ve read the Gray Ghost books and enjoyed them, I’d recommend this as a good expansion of the story with more of a focus on character and romance (but there’s still some action!). If you haven’t read the Gray Ghost books yet, this could be a good way to test the waters and works well as a standalone romance with a bit of mystery and action.

The Fire God Tour by Michele Sims is the third installment in the Moore Family Saga and is my favourite so far! I would suggest reading this saga in order as each new book follows the same set of characters as previous books, give or take a few years.
This book was my favourite so far because I was able to connect with the main characters on a deeper level, which is something that I wasn’t able to do in in the first two. I loved being able to finally read more about Miles and to follow along on his one of a kind journey.
This was a truly entertaining read and I look forward to reading more from this author in the future!

This is the second story in the Moore Family Saga and it follows Act I, about seven years later. While it seems not much has changed for Lecia and Cade it really has. Cade is a rock star, Lecia the stay at home mom. It seems the only danger to this perfect family is themselves. Miles is growing and it seems he is more special than we first thought.
This storyline is easy to read and easy to follow. While the characters Lecia and Cade are likeable, I find that I don’t LOVE them…yet. They have poor communication skills with each other and as husband, wife, friends or lovers they really should be able to express themselves better. They may have avoided much conflict in their lives…oh, well…good job Sims, a story about how we are our own worst enemies! Don’t get me wrong, these two have to fight off much more than themselves. Some people, in stories and real life, just want what they can’t have! Plus having a son with such special abilities!
I recommended this saga and am looking forward to what Act III brings for this family.

Playing with Fire (Moore Family Saga Book 2) by Michele Sims – Review by Shannon Fowler
The Fire God Tour (Moore Family Saga Book 3) by Michele Sims is a story that has bought this series full circle. It is a romance with a touch of paranormal story that is interesting and takes us on a journey of a musical star and finding his way to love. This series has been centred around the Moore Family and the trials and tribulations they have endured and the love of a good family. Michele writing flows and there are a couple of twists that keep you glued to the pages.
Ari has gone from a child to a man and is now living the high life with his own kind of music. When he hires a new marketing consultant never did he see his life heading in the direction it goes. Will she be the one to tame Ari?

This series just keeps getting better and better with each book. I enjoyed this book from cover to cover. I also enjoyed watching the characters grow with each book and how family plays a role. Miles is a superstar who seems to have everything he wants until he meets Belle. He can’t seem to leave her alone, there is just something about her. Will he cross over the professional line? Will hidden secrets be the cause of losing everything? I highly recommend reading their story.

I loved this story! This author continues to write a series that continues to get better and better with each story. They bring the romance, action, suspense as well as twists and turns that leave me turning pages. In this story, Russ and his team were targeted in Iraq but now that he is back in the States, he realizes he is still being targeted. Than he meets Claire but problem is they don’t know who is the real target. They are great characters that pop off the pages. A must read!
