I loved this story. This story is about a subject that is near to my heart and has affected my life. This is an emotional story about Alzheimers and the love and forgiveness that follows.

I never hesitate to pick up one of this author’s stories. This story is full of action and drama. I loved being pulled into this story from the beginning and not being able to put it down until the end. The characters really made the story come to life and they really just messed well together. Tallie goes in search of answers to questions about her life. Jackson also finds himself off in search of unanswered questions. How many concidences can there be in one small town? A must read!

I also enjoyed reading about the secondary characters that are introduced in the story and who interact with Rane and Ember. This is a book I would highly recommend reading.

Loving these “Fisher Boys”!!! This story is a stand-alone and I am sure you will want to read Book 1 because this series is THAT GOOD.
This is a witty, fast paced story with emotions, family, friends, romance and redemption. The story is well plotted and the cadence with which the story is told moves it along at a great pace.
This is one of those series that I hope goes on and on.

The story Darcy’s Caution (Pride & Prejudice & Racecars Book 3) by Zoe Burton is a sports romance book. I loved reading this story. It brings the world of racing and romance together in such a way that you will not be able to put the book down until you have read the final page. I loved reading about Will and Liz Darcy.

There are additional characters that I enjoyed reading about who interact with Will and Liz. They are friends and helpful to the couple. Don’t miss out on a story that will keep your interest from beginning to end. I highly recommend reading it.
I have been really looking forward to reading the second book in this series as I was especially excited to read Melanie and Spencer’s story! And as expected I was not disappointed at all! I fell in love with the two main characters straight away. There was just something about them both that drew me in straight away – Melanie was a strong, independent woman and Spencer – well he was just so hot I fell in love with him as soon as I met him – but as well as that there was a slight vulnerability about him that I really liked. There was just something so special about the two of them that together they just seemed to work, they both had their own secrets to deal with and I just knew that together they would be able to help each other out. The author has written a really beautiful tale, the pace and flow of the story is excellent and my interest was kept from beginning to end. I absolutely loved Not So Wrong and I cannot wait to read more from Ms Regent again in the future!

I absolutely loved this collection of stories!! They were so magical with a good amount of suspense and along with it some fantastic plot twists and turns. I really liked the characters and I loved reading about them. One of the things I loved about this series is how unique it was and I loved the author’s writing. The stories were written it in such an engaging way that I couldn’t put them down. Having read books by her previously I know that her world building is usually good but I thought that it was excellent in this series. I really liked Wren and I actually liked that I had to work hard to get to understand her, I found her character really intriguing but there was something about her that I just instantly liked. She was a fantastic, strong heroine to read about. I think I would definitely like one of the deserts that she bakes!! All of the characters in the stories were great to read about. I 100% recommend this series – it was a fantastic read!

After commuting for too many years to London working in various senior management roles, Manda left the rat race and now fulfills her dream and writes fulltime. She draws on her background in psychology, the experience of working indifferent disciplines and personal life experiences in her books. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of North Essex with her husband and two slightly nutty Irish Setters. Walking her dogs gives her the thinking time to come up with plots for her novels, and she often dictates ideas onto her phone on the move, while looking over her shoulder hoping no one is around to listen to her. Manda’s other main hobby is reading, and she devours as many books as she can. Her biggest fan is her gay son (every mother should have one!). Her favourite pastime when he is home are the late night chatting sessions they enjoy, where no topic is taboo, and usually accompanied by a bottle of wine or two.

Sometimes our biggest debts have nothing to do with money.
1926. When seventeen-year-old Sam Ackerman witnesses a mob hit, he is hustled out of New York under the protection of Moshe Toblinsky, A.K.A., the mob’s bookkeeper. Arriving in Miami with no money, no friends, and no place to hide, Sam’s only choice is to do as the gangster demands. Forced into bootlegging, Sam’s misery is compounded when he falls in love. Amazingly, the beautiful, devout Rebecca wants only him, but he cannot give her the life she deserves. When Prohibition ends, Sam begs the mobster to set him free. The price? A debt, as Toblinsky puts it, of friendship. A debt that will one day come due.
Present Day. History of American Crime professor Liz Reams has it all – early success, a tantalizing lead on new info about Moshe Toblinsky, and a wonderful man to love. Life is perfect. So what’s keeping her from accepting her guy’s marriage proposals? Confronting a long-standing personal debt sets her on a journey of self-discovery. While she delves ever deeper into Sam’s and Toblinsky’s relationship, her understanding of her own relationships increases as well, but the revelations come at a price. The emotional and physical dangers of her dual journeys may prove too big to handle.
I have been in love with the past for as long as I can remember. Anything with a history, whether shabby or majestic, recent or ancient, instantly draws me in. I suppose it comes from being part of a large extended family that spanned several generations. Long summer afternoons on my grandmother’s porch or winter evenings gathered around her fireplace were filled with stories both entertaining and poignant. Of course being set in the American South, those stories were also peopled by some very interesting characters, some of whom have found their way into my work.
As for my venture in writing, it has allowed me to reinvent myself. We humans are truly multifaceted creatures, but unfortunately we tend to sort and categorize each other into neat, easily understood packages that rarely reveal the whole person. Perhaps you, too, want to step out of the box in which you find yourself. I encourage you to look at the possibilities and imagine. Be filled with childlike wonder in your mental wanderings. Envision what might be, not simply what is. Let us never forget, all good fiction begins when someone says to her or himself, “Let’s pretend.”
I reside in the Houston area with one sweet husband and one adorable German Shorthaired Pointer who is quite certain she’s a little girl.

Truthfully, with the first book, I was very unsure what I would find in its pages. I knew I was intrigued but was afraid I might be bored. The joke was definitely on me – I was astounded.
It’s follow up continues to hold the bar at a very high level. The characters continued to draw me in to the historical fiction in its pages and transport me back to a very different time.
Burton does a masterful job creating a universe and cast of characters that are intriguing, relatable, and captivating. The story is vivid and certainly stands the test of time. Absolutely loved it.

I loved everything about this book. My only question is how, as a lover of Terry Pratchett, have I NEVER stumbled across Chappell before now? Her wit oozes from each page and happily finds a home in your heart regardless of your age (good thing since I’m most definitely not in the YA group!). Sharp, poignant, fantastically tongue-in-cheek, this book had me enraptured from beginning to end. What a wonderful addition to every library. You must pick it up – NOW!!

This box set is awesome! It has it all… romance, suspense, mystery and of course chocolate! All the things needed to make this an interesting read and a it’s a good one to waste away the day away with. Just don’t read these books on an empty stomach because the food and sweets discussed in this book sound down right sinful and I would love to try them all! The characters in these books are another thing I should mention. They were fantastic. Even with the magic elements incorporated in them, they were relatable and they were extremely well liked. I couldn’t wait to see where their stories were going and I was sad when the end finally came around. I am looking forward to reading more by this author and I would recommend this box set to a friend!

That is all I’m saying about the journey that takes place in this fantastic story.
First let me say, I really do not like historical fictions. But this one involves children. There for it became a must read. The book Sherry A. Burton has written, was absolutely heartbreaking, loveable, and had many surprises. The many characters in this book, all have their own story to tell. I enjoyed reading this story, tears and all. My recommendation, if you read this book, is have tissue, wine and chocolate available. You can bet I will be looking forward to reading book 2! Well done Sherry A. Burton!

Burton – Review by Cindy Mayberry
Discovery was an intriguing and fantastic 5 star read. This was the first time that I have heard about the Orphan Train and once I started reading I couldn’t put it down.
We switch between past and present throughout the story. Cindy decides to finally go through her grandmother’s storage locker. As she is going through things she is discovering some secrets that intrigue her and makes her want to learn more about her grandmother’s history.
As the journals are read we get pulled into so many different things. My emotions were all over the place, how could children be treated this way. I don’t want to say too much more and give anything away. There is so much more I would like to see and all of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. Sherry pulls you right in with her writing and I can’t wait to read more from this series. 1-click and get started on this great historical read.

September Breeze (Cinnamon Bay #2) By Nikki Lynne Barrett 5 out of 5 stars
This is an amazing, heart-tugging story that really draws the reader into the character’s lives. Between her past and his broken heart, the reader is left turning pages as fast as they can to get more of the story. Miss Barrett has created a world of small town life with vivid, delightful people who make the reader want to visit Cinnamon Bay. The struggles that are faced by Brian and his family, as well as Tess, are realistic and heartbreaking. I fell in love with the characters in this book and am left wanting to know more and more about the characters and the worlds that Miss Barrett has and will create in the future. This is a wonderful read and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes a love story with a twist and a little mystery too! Get yours today! Reviewed by Rhonda Pulk.

I was so looking forward to this book. I met these two in the first book in this series and knew this was their story and couldn’t wait to dive in.
Spencer and Melanie won me over immediately and the world around me did not exist while I read this book. It brought out all the feels and I’m not sure why but books that have to do with singers or music in general don’t normally catch my attention but this one sold me completely. I sincerely loved every word and that is thanks to this author’s beautiful writing style and her way with words.
“There are so many regrettable things I’ve done in my life. But it turns out, there was nothing so wrong that it couldn’t be made right. All it took was the truth.”
That statement totally touched me and I’m not sure why but I dont think Ive ever had it put like that and I love it!
I can not wait for Audrey’s story and I also can not wait to read these books again..I can not recommend enough!!

Not So Wrong by Renee Regent is the second book in the Love Grows series. This is a standalone contemporary romance with great characters. Renee Regent is an author that really knows how to write a great book. She weaves such a tale with strong and engaging characters. This is definitely something that is prevalent throughout this book. Melanie and Spencer were brilliant together. Their chemistry was instant. The whole way through the book I was willing them to find a way to make things work. I thought the overall story was good. It was well paced and the author did a great job of developing the arc. It was an easy book to fall into and one that I found I had read quicker than I thought – it was definitely over too soon! I can certainly say that this author is one that, although I have only discovered recently, I enjoy reading every single time.

Into Pieces (Shattered Hearts Series Book 2) by Nicole Banks. This is the second book in this series and its amazing. Fair warning, It’s not for the faint of heart. Its the continuation of Jasmine and Angel’s story. This book is better than story 1 because you get more in to the emotional side. Jasmine is becoming a stronger women in this book and Angel just wants to help her heal from the past. The horrible event that happened to her is still causing her pain but she is trying to heal and move on. Angel is trying to get over the guilt of feeling like he should have done more to save her from the attack. We are introduced to another couple in this book that I hope to read more about; Chase & Kris. They seem super fun! I just can’t wait for the next book to see how Jasmine & Angel have grown as a couple.

Into Pieces (Shattered Hearts Series Book 2) by Nicole Banks 5 stars
Amazing read! I loved the first book. And you must know you cannot read these out of order! I love these 2 main characters and the secondary ones as well, but Angel and Jasmine are kind of my favorite right now. They’ve been through so much apart and now they are trying to navigate how to be a couple without unloading all their baggage onto the other for fear of setbacks or scaring off the other. Lots of things happen in this book and it had me turning pages so fast to read all the words. Great read can’t wait to see what happens with the next book with this group.

I LOVED this book!! After reading book 1 in the series I couldn’t wait to read more from this author, I still don’t know how I’ve missed her books before and I was not disappointed by book 2 whatsoever! This was a brilliant read, full of intrigue, great characters with off the charts chemistry and a great storyline! I loved Connor and Rika; they had an unusual meeting which I actually really liked. The on screen chemistry was bubbling and I was really excited to see if that would carry over once they met! It’s possible that I am a little bit in love with Connor!! I thought he was very swoon-worthy!! I really liked Rika too I thought that she was a great female lead! I was definitely rooting for these two the whole way through the story! A fantastic second book in this series – I can’t wait for more!!

I have been really looking forward to this book – I have loved this series so far and I have to say Ms Mellett has definitely saved the best until last! I was completely captivated by this story from beginning to end, I honestly could not put my kindle down at all. I have to say I am usually consumed by this authors stories but there was just something about this one, she really did take the story and characters to another level. She definitely brought the series full circle with this final instalment. Truck and Allie’s story was so beautifully written, the emotional moments of the story really grabbed me at times. It’s been a while since a book had me in tears but this one did all within a few pages! I was so into what I was reading, I could feel everything to characters did and I think that’s definitely what had me so emotional! Truck Stopped was an amazing ending to this series and a story I cannot recommend enough. It could be read as a standalone but I would 100% recommend the series as a whole! As always I look forward to seeing what Ms Mellett comes out with in the future.
