I gave this 3 stars because this reminded me of Cinderalla getting picked at by her evil stepmom and her step sisters. The only difference here is a girl named Ashley trying to live a normal at High School without drawing too much attention to herself who later ends up helping prince charming Harry, who has to go to this school to get his life straight but ends up needing help to hide who he is and from people telling what to do. Both Ashely and Harry change their whole life around, is love worth it for them, or do they have to be told what to do? Other than that it has some twisted parts and an interesting point of view of how Ashley shows her strong side in life.

This is the first short story I have read from this author. I was hooked by the very first page. The woman in the beginning is describing a dead man across from her at a dinner table. Why? How? When? Did she do it? As you continue to read you find out all these answers. The story is based on humans and hungries and what has made this phenomenon happen. The woman is lonely and trying to come to terms with the eventuality of her life. I love that she has an odd relationship with a cat across the way. Never give up hope.

This book did not disappoint. The thrill and suspense were so real. I couldn’t put the book down. It starts with 4 girls who were all abducted, but 3 were murdered, and 1 escaped. Everyone already assumes that it was the survivor, but when the FBI get involved, many options are put out there. All of the characters are so good. Please read as you will not be disappointed!!!

I had aa little trouble getting into this book. I wish I had read the first one so I could better understand this novel. It has a lot of drama and fantasy creatures in it which is right my ally. This novel shows a lot of friendship and what one will do for loyalty, Melissa does well with the writing the two different stories, Kayda’s and Harlow’s point of view gives you a better understanding of both characters. Get ready for adventures reading this novel. I would read these in order to better understand what is going on but great read.

This is the first-time reading M. K. Harkins, and I was a little worried at first. The whole Cinderella story line wasn’t my favorite. I was glad to keep reading past that. Even though it had the same line it had a lot of twist and turns. I would really love to hear Harry’s song to Ashley. I liked all the details in this story. The hint of things going on this book were not telling but they all come together in the end. Ashley and Harry’s story can’t end here and I am ready to read more by this author.

I really enjoyed this book. The premise of the blind date is one I have never come across before. Made the portion of the actual blind date extremely interesting. I couldn’t even imagine. Not too sure of how I would feel. Jake is talked into going on this blind date by his friends (the boys club). How it turns out is hysterical and you really feel for the guy.
Lauren is an PA for Cade. He’s a wonderful boss and doesn’t want to ever lose her. Things get tense and unnerving when the previous owner is a disrespectful and extremely rude man. Since Lauren is the first line defence, she gets the brunt of this disparaging man.
This book will have you swooning and tense and on your toes throughout.

This was an absolute fun and enjoyable read. It was lighthearted and I love the small humor in the book. I LOVED the extra mystery revolving around Makayla’s family and the old myth about being the seventh born. Makayla is a super spunky good but also a rebel teenager. The last thing she wanted was to be a grave digger, but was it the best thing that happened to her? The only thing I did not like was that at some points time was accelerated without any description of how much time actually had passed. This book is like Harry Potter with conjunction of the paranormal. The way C.A. King introduced all of the characters was marvelous, I really enjoyed how she introduced the villain in the story in combo with Makayla’s background. An amazing paranormal witch academy story that you will fall in love with and hate to be done with!

King – Review by Helen Dawkins
A good paranormal romance book! Our lead characters are written well but could use a little more fleshing out. I feel like they are just on the cusp of being spectacular! Raven has the charm of a witch coming into her own and her power. She has gone the road of “being normal” and now has been pulled in to the world of her family and ancestry. Romano is an old master vampire with a long-standing hatred of witches. He is tasked with finding the traitors in the midst of his people. He catches Raven spying on his home and is instantly captivated with her. Poof! He is over his hatred and mistrust. The world is well-written but could also use a little more fleshing out in the details. Overall, the book is really good! It just feels a little rushed and like a few more details could be added to really knock it out of the park!

I originally picked this book/books for my 7 year old daughter. She has a speech issue right now, so she is a little lower on the current reading level that she should be. Anyway, she did GREAT with these! And who doesn’t love Dinosaurs! I would recommend this book for any 5-8 year old, maybe younger if your reading it to your dyno loving child(ren). This book is great as an eBook, but I personally would recommend the other version because kids love to hold books and this one flips over and it’s another story! How fun is that, right?! On to the books…. The first book (A Present for the Volcano) is about two Dino friends and a Volcano. One dinosaur (Conifer) is afraid of the volcano and wants to run, while the other Dinosaur (Spike) thinks that the volcano is sad and needs a present. The two dynos give the volcano a necklace to make the volcano feel better. It takes all day, but their gift is complete. The volcano bursts and the dynos run. Read the book to find out the ending!! I don’t want to give anything away 😉 The next book ( Saving Conifer’s Eggs) is the flip side book, book 2. Conifer has a nest with three eggs that she is sitting on. Spike smells smoke and comes to warn her. They must run from the fire, but she can’t carry her three eggs with her two little hands. The friends face a few problems as they try to make it to safety with the three eggs. Will they make it safety? What happens with the eggs? Do they break along the way? Get burned? How do Conifer and Spike fair at the end?! Read this fun children’s books to find out more!! Both books are so fun! I really think kids will love not only the pictures, but the story too!

There are a lot of Shifter books out there, and this one is Excellent. The characters are so well written you feel like you know them intimately. Quinn is a strong female lead who is trying to solve the mystery of her parents’ death while protecting her people. Kieran is our male lead who is a strong alpha male who is simply too perfect. He is supportive and forgiving yet makes mistakes and assumptions and apologies. Too Perfect! (*sighs longingly) The world is built and layered really well. There is an entire Omegaverse series that ties in to this book, but this one is a stand-alone. I haven’t read the other novels and didn’t feel lost at all. It was nice to get enough backstory about the world to know how it worked, but not so much that half the book bogged down in details that took away from the story. It was a really well executed balance. I can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this one and have already pre-ordered the sequel!

The Colors of love is book two in a Trilogy. I Did not read book one in this series, and I was still able to keep up with book two. I thought this book was well written I was sucked in right from the begging. The Charaters in this book are wonderful I love the three friends Melody, Lance and Imani. I Feel the characters can be relatable. If you are into Contemporary Romance reads, then this is the book for you. I read this book in two days and I cannot wait to read book three by this author and i plan on going back and reading book 1 also. Thank you to this amazing author for a great read and i look forward to reading more books by you soon. I Suggest all you Romance readers pick this up i would even say young adults would enjoy this book as well 🙂 @stephaniedulac25
