Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 1) by Toni Denise – Review by Jules Herbert

Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates Book 1)Jake by Toni Denise
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a fun read this book is! Jake is done with dating after yet another girl he was dating was only interested in his bank account. He is just so sick and tired of it all. At a poker night his friends talk him into going on some Blind dates where his friends choose the girls he will date. He agrees as long as they also go on dates as well. This opens up to the rest of the series which I personally am excited for. Anyway back to the story, the dates are held in a completely darkened restaurant adding new meaning to the term Blind date. As you can imagine this creates some interesting times for sure. I don’t want to say too much more about the storyline as I don’t want to give too much away. Just know that this very talented author created a great storyline and wonderful characters, both main and side characters, that I just can’t wait meet again in the next book.

Hi, I’m Wednesday Family. I’m a witch, and I’m in love with my best friend—Scratch that. I am addicted to my best friend—a panda shifter.

No other guy satisfies that itch like Ryker does. I know it can’t last since he has a mate somewhere, though I wish a house would fall on her and save me the trouble. I need to cut him off. The problem is that I don’t want to stop.

Goddess. I’m a horrible friend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series is so good! I loved reading about Hawaii and the characters lives there. I absolutely adore Lou and all of her growth! I have to say she is probably my favorite character out of all three books. Honestly there is a lot of character growth in all of the books but Lou really stuck with me. The descriptions of Hawaii are absolutely amazing and make you feel as though you are there. I would love for Bones to have a story and to know if things go back to Penny. These stories are very well written and I definitely want to read more from this author! They have a really great and easy story telling style.

Hungry Business: A Gothic Story about the Horrors of Dating by Maria DeBlassie – Review by Amanda Gonzalez

Hungry BusinessHungry Business by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Though very short, I feel like we were able to see a wide variety of things in this gothic horror tale. The way the author crafted this story makes dating shine in a more sinister, yet oddly relatable, light. At times, the dating game can seem like you’re risking more than just your self-esteem, as was shown in this book, and it’s easy to make the comparisons of sickness and rot – especially when it seems all the ‘dead’ are disguised as the ‘living’. And yet, you get pulled back into the mix of finding love for some compelling reason you can’t really fathom. I love how seamlessly this story weaves reality and metaphor and horror together with raw emotion and truth I feel really shines through to the reader. This wasn’t my first time reading this author’s works, and it certainly won’t be the last, but if you’re looking for a quick and slightly chilling read, you’ve found your book!

Hairballs and Homicide is the first book in A Kitty Beret Cafe Mystery series. I read these out of order but recommend best enjoyed reading them in order. The series is a lighthearted, cozy mystery series that is a fun, quick read. Ellie owns a cat cafe and runs into trouble when a body is found behind the cafe. Can Ellie solve the mystery with the help of her cat and the detective?
I enjoyed all of the characters, even the furry ones. The story is a nice break from the everyday. This book is for you if you enjoy a cozy mystery and like animals. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

This is a second chance romance between a small group of friends that began in high school. Josh & Mavis have history and a love that can’t be quenched. Things take a turn when Mavis forms a relationship with Josh’s twin brother, Austin. Once Josh’s divorce is final, he decides to fight for his true love Mavis which unravels drama, secrets, and heartbreak. This book was cute and clean. I would’ve liked more depth to Josh & Mavis, but overall this is a sweet romance.

Any novel that combines art, history, mystery and action is my kind of book. Add in a love story that involves time travel (but much more than your average time travel!) set in the beautiful city of Venice and you have one of the best debut novels that I’ve ever read. The author does such an amazingly beautiful job of describing Venice that you truly feel like you are there. The characters are well developed, and I became invested in them from the beginning. All of this plus a surprise ending- don’t miss out on this one. As one reader stated, “think The DaVinci Code meets Outlander”.

Felines and Fatalities is the second book in the A Kitty Beret Cafe Mystery series. I hadn’t read this author before but was not disappointed with this introduction. Ellie, her cafe, and her cats make for a fun, quick read. I enjoyed Ellie and how she goes about solving the murder of a competition judge. The story is lighthearted and fun. The characters, especially the cats, are an entertaining bunch that adds to the story.

This book was a great read. I enjoyed the storyline and the character development. This book is excellent if you like reading books from multiple points-of-views. It was nice to see how each of the two characters thought and felt at certain times.

In this book, you will fall in love with Greer. She is a strong girl that tries to take on all her battles alone and in silence—determined not to use others or the wealth they have. She gets thrown to the wolves by a person that should have shielded her. Then there is Beckett, the teenager that has it all. Money, status, friends, and a determination to never let a girl close.

What happens when two people from different worlds come together under one roof? Will there be sparks or fire? What if what is wrong feels right?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I very much enjoyed this coming of age, YA, fantasy book with a dark twist and a side of murder. I enjoyed the characters and the relationships between them. I got a Harry Potter vibe from the 3 main characters, Baxter and his two friends Jason and Ashley. Baxter and Jason are best friends, who end up befriending Ashley who is the know it all at school and who they previously didn’t like. But when Baxter accepts the ring and unleashes his own Djinn, a type of genie, he is going to need some help in figuring it all out. I loved how all of the characters interacted with one another, and even though it was a fantasy book, the actions of the characters, felt natural and realistic. I really loved the relationship between Bax and his mom as well. The author did a great job with the character developments and how they matured and grew. Just as we think things are beginning to get wrapped up, the author throws another curve ball into the mix. This is a great novel for both teens and adults who enjoy fantasy with a dark twist.

What she soon finds out, she is there for a reason. This fast paced magical book packs a punch in only 150 pages with the ending leaving you wa ting more. I felt for her as she made and lost friends, as she feared for her life, and as she sought out hope. There were parts that I felt it sped through but for a short book, did a great job.

We’ve always been told that you can’t be too careful with your wishes. But how many of us have actually had to learn the lesson, especially when you’re in a dire situation? This book contains everything you want in a YA paranormal fantasy, and you can tell this author is one to watch.

Taking a ring from a strange looking man doesn’t seem like a bad idea when you’re a young teenager, but Bax changed his life when he just that. Now he will have to decipher what’s real versus what’s imagination which is no easy task with djinn against you. Will he be strong enough to resist the powerful djinn that appeals to him, or will he give in to temptation no matter the cost? With magic, mythology, murder, and tough lessons, this book was impossible to put down. I’m a huge fan of the YA genre and highly recommend From Brick & Darkness!

This was a fun beach series set in Hawaii with all of the emotions. The characters are likable and easy to relate to, the setting is amazing and I loved hearing about all the local places that I haven’t heard of or been to as a tourist, and the story lines were easy to follow. The first book is Keoni and Lou’s story. Keoni is an amazing surfer but hasn’t gone pro. He holds onto the loss of a friend and blames himself. He meets Lou who is a tourist, who helps him change his feelings about tourists. The second book is Declan and Pearl’s story. Declan is a professional surfer but hasn’t been back to his home in Hawaii since the loss of a friend and a big fight with Keoni. He is just barely holding onto his sobriety and walking through life with no emotion. Pearl loves to surf and wants to be noticed so she can stop waitressing and make it back to Hawaii. The last book is Henry and Claudia’s story. Henry is a stuntman and Claudia is a bit part actress. They become friends as Henry decides to help her. There is drama and chemistry and this is a very well written series of relationships!
