Just One Song (Just One… Book 2) by Lynn Stevens – Review by Michelle Austin

Just One SongJust One Song by Lynn Stevens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just One Song by Lynn Stevens was a great 5 star read.

Cami knows that the only way she can ever leave Branson is to try out as a backup singer for a legendary rocker and hope she gets noticed. I was just as nervous as Cami during her tryouts, and all I have to say is I didn’t like Hank from the start. He was not so nice to Cami.

Cami ends up landing the part due to Hank’s son Dylan being persistent. As the story moves forward Dylan and Cami start to connect. He is super sweet with her and her family. There is something that Dylan is keeping from Cami, what will happen if Cami learns the truth?

Overall I really enjoyed this read. I really liked Cami and her family was great. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. If you are looking for a great romance read this is the book for you. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

Drifting, Falling: Diary of a Call Girl Suicide by A.J. Ullman – Review by Sunday Barnaby

Drifting, Falling -- Diary of a Call Girl SuicideDrifting, Falling — Diary of a Call Girl Suicide by A.J. Ullman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Drifting Falling: Diary of a Call Girl Suicide by AJ Ullman
Four Stars

Drifting Falling: Diary of a Call Girl Suicide is a heartbreaking story by AJ Ullman. This is the first book I have read by AJ Ullman, but definitely won’t be the last. This book captures all of the pain and disappointment of a young woman with a dark and troubled past. This book was deeply moving and hard to read at times, but I think AJ did a really good job of bring the issues of depression and suicide to light. I would recommend this book and look forward to reading more from this author.

Accountability (Scope of Practice Book 3) by Jessica Aiken-Hall – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

Accountability (Scope of Practice #3)Accountability by Jessica Aiken-Hall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Accountability is the third book in Jessica Aiken-Hall’s Scope of Practice Series. I have read them all, and they must be read in order. This cannot be a standalone. It is my favorite of the series though. It wraps everything up in a nice package with a solid ending. The story continues to focus around Val, but it branches out more to include her friends stories as well. Val is moving forward, and starting a family but needs to settle her past. Her husband and friends support her in the journey. We finally learn who the killer is (although I figured that out early on). We get to hear Norma’s story, and I think that was my favorite in the series. While I expected some of it, I was shocked to learn the full history. I think Norma needs a book of her own! Highly recommend this book, you won’t want to put it down.

On With The Butter: Spread More Living onto Everyday Life by Heidi Herman. I’m not a huge non-fiction fan and not to keen on a self help type book, but I’ll be honest this year has me changing a lot of my ways. I was definitely pleasantly surprised how much I liked this book and I mean that in the nicest way, it’s of no fault of the author that this isn’t my normal read so I’m glad to say this book definitely had this wonderful way of keeping me turning the pages. I felt an encouragement throughout the entire book and I definitely could use all the encouragement I can get theses days. It’s got quotes I’ll carry with me for sure and appreciate that. Which it’s not my usual reading I’m glad I found it and gave it a try. Four stars and highly recommended!

Accountability is the third book in the Scope of Practice series by Jessica Aiken-Hall. This series should be read in order to get the full backstory. I would have recommend that read them all anyway because they are all excellent. This book had me hooked on the very first page. This book is filled with mystery and suspense. It had me up all night just to see how it would end. Valerie is a very intriguing character with secrets in her past, but the are coming out in this book.this series is my favorite so far this year.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

Just One Song by Lynn Stevens is such a sweet romance. The dramatics, the story line and the characters were all perfect. Cami, is such a sweet girl, I don’t think there was one time throughout this story that I didn’t like her. Her relationship with her family is wonderful to read, and the way she loves her dad and is willing to give up her dreams and life to help her mom is so beautiful and sad. The relationship Cami had with her friends Miranda and Iris was just terrible. At first I was really loving the two best friends and then one misunderstanding and she loses the two people she needs the most when going through issues with her dad’s health and her rough ride singing backup for Hank. Her best friends were no good for her in my opinion, she deserves better. I really thought from reading the blurb that Dylan was going to be a super jerk but I liked his character a lot, and I really liked how he came to be in love with Cami. Their story is sweet even when she is treated like crap from Dylan’s father. The ending is one that you would see on a classic hallmark movie and left me satisfied. I definitely recommend this book.

I loved reading the book The Crocodile Makes No Sound (The Lord Hani Mysteries Book 2) by N.L. Holmes. It pulled me in from the beginning and I was hooked. This story has Lord Hani in several serious situations at once. The danger to him and his family becomes very real. What will happen? Read this book to find out. I love the character of Lord Hani. When he is involved in an investigation, he does his best to find out the truth behind it. He is always walking a fine line with his personal beliefs and those of the current king’s. He is a man who loves his family and has friends that he can call on when needed. This story had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. The author does an amazing job of making me lose myself in the time period. Also, making both the storyline and the characters come alive. I enjoyed reading about many of the additional characters as they have been brought forward from the first book. This story includes secrets and danger. Don’t miss out on an exciting and entertaining book that you won’t be able to put down until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

I enjoyed this sweet romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. This is a well developed story that has characters that really make this story pop. It is written with a ton of heart and romance. I enjoyed being pulled in right from the beginning. It is a fast paced story that I found to be engaging and kept me turning pages. This is a story about chances. Kara has one summer left before she goes off to college. She decides to make the best of it. She takes on a job where she never expected to meet Bear. Neither one expects to meet each other which makes their story even sweeter. I enjoyed watching them grow and their chemistry is off the charts. I had no issues connecting with them and they really made the story for me. I highly recommend this book.

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4)True Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

True Bastard is the fourth book in India Kells’ Dark Sparrow series and I tell you, she is killing it! I think I have read every single book she is written (well, not the paranormal ones) and whenever her name pops up on my radar, I run for it! Dark Sparrow series is about six bastard sons of an evil man and we have two more brothers to come so I cannot wait! You need to read the series in the order, trust me!
True Bastard gives us Liam Harker’s story who is a Chicago cop on a mission. When you read about his childhood, you heart will break for him and you will hate his father even more. He is trying to go through his father’s financials so that the brothers could cut off his money source but it is so complex so he needs some help … enters novice nun Sister Catriona Walsh who is one step away from taking her final vows … once you hear about Liam’s childhood, you understand the internal struggle he lives every single day he works with Catriona …
I love the universe that India has created and I also love how her different universes touch … add to this her collaboration with Maddie Wade and I promise you, once you pick up her books, you will never leave her again!

This is my first book by this author. I enjoyed it from beginning to end and I look forward to reading more from them. I enjoyed how well written this story is. It is easy flowing and understandable. I also found it to be engaging and fast paced. The characters bring the story to life with epic fantasy action. I had no problems connecting to them. This is a story about Grant. He has been labeled an outlaw because of learning to use a sword. Now fate has some other things in store for him. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what the fates have for him. He made a great character that kept me reading just to find out what happened next. He is strong and handsome to boot. This made a great afternoon read and I was happy I picked it up.

True Bastard by India Kells is a Dark Sparrow Novel. This is a fantastic book that will have you hooked from start to finish. It is a gripping story that is exciting to read and really makes you root for the characters.
India Kells is an author that really knows how to create an intense book. But for me at the heart of all of her books are the characters. And these two are no different. I loved reading about Liam and Catriona. They were so different on the face of it however they fit together so well. They complimented each other. I got behind the two of the instantly and knew I was going to love their story.
This book is just as good as the previous ones I have read and with the way it ended I am so excited to read the next book in the series. This is a brilliant book and one I would highly recommend.

It Comes From Within (House Valdis #2)It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This the second book in the series and I highly recommend reading the first book in the series. This will provide you with the back story and introduce the characters. The description is a fantasy genre but it has many more elements in the story. There is sci-fi, danger, responsibility, secrets, tension, romance and magic to name a few. When the author has a vivid imagination, it makes the story come to life. It is what holds my attention from the very first page until the last page. Character building and relations also keeps the book interesting. In this particular story, I enjoyed the roller coaster ride I took with Xenobia. Xenobia’s storyline continues in book two. She is getting into every bit of trouble, not by her doing but by shadows she does not realize they are around. Danger is present and there is a crisis in the House of Valdis. There is drama and adventure around every corner. I will leave the review with this keep your mind totally open and the images will come to you. Enjoy the series and I cannot wait until the next book.

It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie is the second book in the House Valdis series. I highly recommend reading the first book before this because most of the characters are introduced there. This is a multi-faceted and complex fantasy book. The characters, especially Xenobia, are really deep and interesting. I really enjoy the storyline and it is interesting to see where the author is taking the story. I like the multiple layers of story and character development going on because it pushes the pace of the book and makes it almost impossible to set it down. This is not always one of my favorite genres but Naomi Valkyrie is making a convert of me. She writes and tells a story very well and keeps this reader engaged until the very last page. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

This story is full of lust, romance and excitement. I was frantically reading through this book to see what happens after ever turn of the page, the main characters are well developed and are a perfect combination to each and bounce off each other brilliantly. Gabe being the playboy and oldest in the family you expect him to be an idiot but his devotion to Livvie in the end is heartwarming. I can’t wait to read the next book in this installment and with five siblings you can imagine their is going to more in this wonderful series.

Just One Song by Lynn Stevens is book two of the Just One series. This book can be read as a standalone. This book has everything – drama, secrets, angst and so many emotions. I couldn’t put it down.

This experience gives her more time in her hometown while being able to learn the ropes for her own career. She never expected to meet Dylan though.

In the end, Cami has a choice to make, will she leave Branson or is home where she needs to be? Find out!

After some of Karina Cardinal’s recent adventures—her lover Mike Finnegan would call them scrapes, jams, or pickles—she’s more than ready to blow this D.C. pop stand for a short girls’ trip to Mexico. Until Jillian’s roller skate wreck blows their plan out of the water.

With Jilly injured and Mike working, her fellow lobbyist Rodrigo volunteers to share some sun, sand, and margaritas in Cancun. It’s tough to relax, though, knowing what’s in her suitcase. A package she promised to hand off to Mrs. Thundermuffin in Mexico.

Mrs. T’s evasive maneuvers around Karina’s questions wave more red flags than a bullfighter, leaving Karina no choice but to take a peek. Okay, so it’s not a kilo of something illegal. It’s an Egyptian death mask that turns out to be a magnet for crooks, conmen, kidnappers, and outright killers.

When the situation explodes into chaos, Karina and Rodrigo are lucky to have friends in the right place—at their backs. But they’re in one hell of a jam. And they could be going home in something tackier than a souvenir t-shirt—more like a body bag.

International bestselling and award-winning author Ellen Butler presents book four in the Karina Cardinal mystery series! Fans of Melinda Leigh, J.D. Robb, and Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum will adore this gripping mystery adventure.

As someone who has always had a secret desire to self-publish, I found this book to be extremely interesting and insightful. Ackley-McPhail does a nice job explaining things in an informative way without being overly droll and boring. If you are looking to self-publish one day, I believe you’ll find the information provided to be useful and helpful. A good book exploring the workings of a piece of literature and how to put your best foot forward.
