Covert Threat (Gray Ghost #5)Covert Threat by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Covert Threat (A Gray Ghost Novel Book 5) by Amy McKinley, 5 stars.
I’m no novice when it comes to reading Amy’s book they are outstanding.
From page one until your last your be sucked in, especially with the suspense, strong independent characters Amy loves to write, and Covert Threat is no different. Jules loves her work at the research facility but strangeness starts to happen to her and when the bodyguard Trev makes an appearance and things start to heat up. But can it really be that simple? Read this to find out those details, it will have you on the edge of your seat for sure.

THE RUNAROUND: A Single Dad Romantic Comedy (CAROLINA CONNECTIONS BOOK 6) By SYLVIE STEWART – Review by Sam Sheerin

The Runaround (Carolina Connections #6)The Runaround by Sylvie Stewart
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

THE RUNAROUND: A Single Dad Romantic Comedy (CAROLINA CONNECTIONS BOOK 6) By SYLVIE STEWART 4 stars,
So ok I’ve read plenty of other books by Sylvie, but this was by far my favourite read.
The story of Jax being a single dad but always causing the heartbreak in the world of women is great, his character is so head strong he doesn’t realise he has such a good thing until its gone. His battle to get back what he lost is hard and his daughter doesn’t make it easy on him and somehow he becomes open to what could be.
Told from the POV of Jax and Ari, this is a tale of love and hurt and understanding one another and the perspective of why things aren’t plain black and white.
Definitely worth the read

Ink’s Devil (Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #5) by Manda Mellett – Review by Sam Sheerin, 5 stars
This is my first read by Mandy and what can I say, this has everything I could ever ask. Heat, passion, vengeance, love/hate, family feuds.
I love how Mandy did the three person POV which totally worked and you could see the strong family relationship bonds that are evident throughout the book. Ink and Beth are one of the cutest couples but if you could picture them knowing what you know you wouldn’t see them together at all. The MC has a tight knit family appeal, brother in arms and all.
Look forward to reading some of the other Satan’s devils books

So let’s get this started. This is my first ever read from a Male author who has written a fantasy novel. The blurb had you hooked from the very start and the detailed description of the prolonged and first chapter definitely continued that hold.

Jones has an epic plot and the discovery of this along the way is amazing and I cant wait to see where he takes the characters and the rest of the tale in book 2

This is the first book i have read by this author and although the plot was well written and overall intriguing, i found that it lacked in substance with some descriptions, however it does open it for a much more detailed intensive book 2.

This is a whole new level of reading for me, more of a self guided tour of one’s own mind and self reflection of your own musings and wandering of the mind. I found myself thinking a lot about everyday perspective and how this book would actually as some points be actually what your were thinking.

A brilliant guide into the depth of self joy to both writer and reader.

4 stars

Soppranaturale hotel is unlike any other hotel, this is the home to supernaturals and those who wish to battle must go to the Gauntlet.
The main character in this read ids the newcomer to Soppranaturale and can control the four elements, she is intelligent, fiercely independent.
This is a terrific read if you love supernatural novels where they coexist for the greater good.
I’m very excited to see where Ashlet takes this series. Ashley has you gripped from page one until the end.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Furbidden Attraction: A Cursed Romance (Raven Falls Cursed Romances Book 1) by R. O’Leary, 4 stars

So I love my shifter romance novels and this was a brand new take of this storyline for me.

Shifters divided into clans all from a curse long ago posed on them, finally coming together to combat a common foe. Will this hopefully lead to clean truces. We will see.

The characters in this novel are brilliantly written, and have a sense of growth from page one until the end, Lou is very quite eccentric  and handles the paranormal world quite differently to how everyone expects. However Alice is by far my favourite character and I really do hope book 2 in this series has a bit more of Alice and the Den and her story.

Tracking NumbersTracking Numbers by Janice M. Whiteaker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tracking Numbers by Janice M. Whiteaker, is a must 5 star read.

Although this is my first ever read by this authour, she most certainlety knows how to capture her audience. The that first page she totaly pulls you in, into the world of MC and gangs and groups and what the Knights will do to protect their president’s daugther. Whether thats from them, the president or herself.
The characters are highly developed in such a short span of time which you hardly notice, Janice writing style will keep you totally glued to this book and keep those pages turning.
Very looking forward to reading book 2.

Beachcomber Enemy: a Romantic Thriller (Beachcomber Investigations Book 10) by Stephanie Queen. 4 stars.

Stephanie Queen has done it again. This novel still had all the high intensity, mystery, suspense, danger and of course romance as all the other novels in the Beachcomber books.

Stephanie knows how to keep the readers engaged and from the very beginning it didn’t disappoint.

Stephanie is a fantastic writer and I have loved reading these books. Look forward to reading more of her work

BECKONED, PART 6: ADRIFT IN NEW ZEALAND BY AVIVA VAUGHN, 4 stars.

Final installment in the Beckoned series which I must say it is sad to see the end of this series. But at the other end it’s a happy ending to see how Soren has grown as a character through the series and the relationships with everyone he has ever met and met again.

This is a must read series, but I highly recommend you read in order to visit some wonderful characters and some wonderful places.

Fierce EmotionsFierce Emotions by Linda Burson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fierce Emotions (book 8 in the Marcy Series) by Linda Burson 4 stars

So as it says this is book eight in the series and is a must read in order series, no doubt about it the series will have your own emotions going up and down with the crazy that is Marcy life.

We continue on with Marcy, her crazy life and her two crazy husband but they somehow keep Marcy grounded.

The addition of the secondary characters will make this an easy flowing read and so easily not put down read. Highly recommend series.

Enjoy the whirlwind of how a relationship works with two husband and the kiddos, there is so much love and laughter in the relationship, and sometimes not without its downs and trouble brewing somewhere.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Drawing Bloodlines: The Princeton Allegiant series book one by Deborah Garland, 4 star

So this isn’t the first book to which I’ve read from this author and I find with every new book that I read of Deborah’s, you can see the writing style has continued to grow, which is brilliant to see the style always improve, keeps the readers biting their nails as you think the storyline is going one direction and then Deborah takes you for a completely different journey. The different POV characters really worked so you totally understood how each of the main characters were feeling and had their voice heard.

The journey is brilliant and I don’t like to have spoilers in my review so I totally recommend that you read this.

Looking forward to seeing where Deborah takes this in book 2.

Shortcuts by Amy Bearce 4 stars.
This is the first read for me by this author and I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. Amy kept you know the edge of the seat with storyline and you couldn’t or dare want to put it down.
The characters all have a nice depth to them not, not too much given away with them.until the point that’s it’s needed. A nice few little twists and turn.
Amy is definitely an author I will be looking out for, for future reads.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Surviving Valencia by Holly Tierney-Bedord, 4 stars.
This is a story that twist and turns your heart strings. It really does make you think about your own childhood life experiences and how that has possibly shaped you into the by person you are today.
I absolutely loved how Holly integrated the past and present tense to build up the story of mystery, secrets and life changing events that led the main character where she is now.
This isn’t the first novel I’ve read by Holly and it most certainly won’t be the last.

The Case of Missing Books: A Summer McCloud Paranormal MysteryThe Case of Missing Books: A Summer McCloud Paranormal Mystery by Nikki Broadwell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Case of Missing Books (Summer McCloud paranormal mystery book 6) by Nikki Broadwell is a four star read.

This is the first book I’ve read by Nikki Broadwell, and although this is book 6, it can be read as a standalone and to be honest I didn’t feel as though I’ve missed anything important, in fact it has made me want to read the other books in the series. Nikki has created such a wonderful creative story, and has some unexpected and twisted turns and I loved it.

Totally recommend this novel.

There Be Demons, M. K. Theodoratus, book one in the Andor Demon Wars is a four star read.

This is usually the genre right up my street full if demon realms in the real world, full of fantasy and action. I thoroughly enjoyed it but felt it was slightly too slow paced to begin with but once the characters and story developed it was page turning you needed to know what was happening next.

The Light at Dawn by K.L. Montgomery is a heartbreaking, heartwarming 4 star read.
This novel hits home to how much family life changes when a tragic accident happens. This follows the lives of a family that lost a son, a brother and the difficulties the family encounter as time passes by.
For Angelia losing her son was hard but what she gained, in the campaign for harder laws against gun control, can only be described as a miracle. Not going to spoil it by what that miracle is, turn those pages to find out.
K.L. Montgomery has written a truly wonderful book here and it will bring a tear to your eyes, page turning and heart wrenching. Enjoy!

Crime Lord’s Captive (crime Lord series, book 1) by Mia Knight. Is an epic 5 star read. Full of intensive, suspenseful and some romantic moments that definitely keep you on the each of the seat with each page you turn.

Lyla has been lost for over three years before she is thrown back into a life and world she doesn’t want any part of. The crime underworld is a world full of monsters that want nothing more than to take down the current crime Lord and will do almost anything to make it happen.

Mia has written the relationships in this novel perfectly, there friendships and loyalty to each other is outstanding and the growth throughout is great to watch.

Perilous Confessions (The Possession Chronicles Book 1)Perilous Confessions by Carrie Dalby
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Perilous Confessions (The Possession Chronicles Book one) by Carrie Dalby is an amazing 4 star read for me.

Diving into the depth of historic romance of courtship, scandal and the family that’s good high standing within society. Back to the days of being escorted to balls, accompanied to tea and never being alone with a man if your were a young beautiful attractive women.

Lucy and Alex are the most unlikely couple you’d expect but their courtship is something most girls/women only ever dream of happening in this time.

Carrie has captured the realm of historic romance to a tee and this is a well written start to what I can only imagine being a great series.
