Friends with Benies: An AMBW Paranormal Romance (Paris in Springtime Book 7)Friends with Benies: An AMBW Paranormal Romance by T.B. Bond
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a cute fun story. Wednesday is in love with her best friend but that’s one secret she can’t share, with anyone. Ryker is in love with his best friend but that’s one secret he can’t share, with anyone. Funny story, these two are each other’s best friend. They both need to find their mates sadly it isn’t each other…or is it? Wednesday is a free-spirited mage while Ryker is a panda shifter. Surely, they can’t be mates. Best friends yes, friends with benies, well of course but only until they find their true mates.

This is my first book by this author what a great discovery! This story is the 7th in the Paris in Springtime Series however there was no reference to any other story that may have been missed. Since this story was so fun to read, I am looking forward to reading the other stories.

Notebook Mysteries Haunted ChristmasNotebook Mysteries Haunted Christmas by Kimberly Mullins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh boy, did I enjoy this novella! Emma is back in an A Christmas Carol-type mystery. I loved the light-heartedness mixed with a bit of spookiness. Emma is back at it, helping a friend investigate a haunted mansion. This book was the perfect fall/Christmas read. There are some twists and turns and it keeps you hooked. This book is fast-paced and a page-turner. It is also a quick read. I was very sad to be done reading it. The ending is clever. You will definitely enjoy this book.

The Vardoger Boy (Forerunner Series #2) by Jay Veloso Batista

This is another great read by the author. The Vardoger Boy is the second book in the Forerunner Series. We get to see characters from book 1. Highly recommended!

Finn is supposed to go upon a ship. When he does he realizes that the ship is haunted. Can he survive? The quote I chose for Finn is: “No, Raga, I have had enough adventures in the Realm Between. I don’t want any more such adventures, not me….”

Raga is Finn’s friend. He keeps his eye on Finn. He knows Finn better than anyone. The quote I chose for Raga is: “Poor little Finn. His uncle doesn’t know what to do, propping him up and shaking him awake. Look how groggy he is, lost without his hug, his soul dangling there in the river, clinging to the back of the boat. A boat troll, who would have thought the ship held a mast troll this far from the islands? They can be nasty…”

Thorfinn & The Witch’s Curse (Forerunner Series #1) by Jay Veloso Batista

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Thorfinn & The Witch’s Curse is the first book in the Forerunner Series. It’s an amazing book and I can’t wait for more.

Yeru loves to tell her stories. So when she’s asked to tell the story of a legend she dives in. Everyone loves to listen and she loves to tell. The quote I chose for Yeru is: “In the dim time between the fall of Deria and Danelaw, the coast of Northumbria was ravaged by rovers. Vikings they were– Harbingers of the Great Army destined to conquer East Anglia, they arrived in long boats with carved wyrm or bear faced prows, fierce warriors with battle hardened mounts, Danes and Jutes, Nords, Frisians and sons of Skane, full of lust for blood and glory.”

Highly recommended for Historical Fantasy lovers.

We Blend
By: Willa Drew
5*

I really loved this story. The characters were very heartfelt and I felt a bond with them immediately. I saw that this is the first book in a series and I truthfully cannot wait for the second book.
El is the stepdaughter of a rock star. She has lived her life in his shadow. She has always struggled with doing anything but music. However, she doesn’t want to be the child of a rockstar who thinks they can make it based on their last name. She is determined to make it in the industry at all costs, which will prove to be hard given being under her parents thumb.
Wil is the product of a single mother and his grandfather. He has traveled to Las Angeles for a film competition. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for more reasons than just the chance to become known for what he loves.
Wil and El end up bumping into one another by chance. However, there doesn’t seem like there is going to be anything ordinary about the two of them. Their chemistry is undeniable. They are both keeping secrets from each other, and when those come to light things become tested between them.
If you are on the fence about reading this, please read it! It is such a fun, well written read.

Notebook Mysteries Haunted ChristmasNotebook Mysteries Haunted Christmas by Kimberly Mullins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Haunted Christmas is another book in the Notebook Mysteries series. It could probably be read as a stand alone, but with some difficulty. There are a lot of characters, which I know from past books, and their relationships and professions. While you may follow and enjoy as a stand alone, some might struggle keeping the characters straight. This is a quick read, much shorter than the others in the series. It takes place around Christmas time, and has many references to Dickens “A Christmas Carol”. I enjoyed it, and like how the case was wrapped up. The author is so creative with the crimes and methods used, as well as fitting of the time. I look forward to more adventures with Emma and her family.

  1. Grave Digger AcademyGrave Digger Academy by C.A. King
    My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I haven’t read a good YA book in quite some time and this was a good start! To start: The only reason for 3 stars is because I feel like there was a LOT going on and it was a little clunky trying to connect everything.

Now what i liked: I liked the premise of kids attending magical academies- and the way they discover which academy they have been accepted too was super neat. The staff were interesting with varying personality, and the familiars were super cute. Makayla is your typical teen- mischievous, curious, and loves to break the rules! Thomas might be my favorites of the side characters- he had some of the funniest lines (and who doesn’t love squirrels?) There’s a little bit of drama but nothing too earth shattering. If you like magical academies and a quick read- give this one a read friends!

I will be reading the next for sure!

I was between books and decided to find something to fill my time before I decided which book to read next. Little did I know I’d end up reading it in one sitting instead of a couple days like I planned. I’m glad I’m no longer in the dating game now, as I feel like even without the illness, dating can be hard and even harder when you are trying to find someone who won’t try to eat you. Fun little read!

What a sweet and enjoyable read this turned out to be. I was a bit concerned that I wouldn’t connect with the story when I realised it was the 7th book in the series but it wasn’t something I needed to worry about. It can easily be read as a standalone and was a great and entertaining story to read. I thought the characters were likeable from the start. They had such a sweet connection that you couldn’t help but want them to make things work.
The story was quite a quick and easy read. I engaged with it no problem and was carried along by what was happening. It was great to see the relationship develop as the book went on. This was a great book and I will be checking out more of the series.

This is a great story written by two clearly talented authors. The characters have been put front and centre of this book, with their story and development being what it is all about. The overall storyline feels like it is there to support and compliment them and to make you, as the reader, engage with them.
This is the first time I have a read a book by these authors and I enjoyed the collaboration. The book flowed well, seamlessly moving through the story. You couldn’t tell who had written which part of the book and I enjoyed that. it kept the pace of the book and didn’t break your connection. This was an enjoyable story and I look forward to discovering more of their work.

My Bronc Riding Cowgirl (My Cowboy Series #6) by Brooke May

Another fantastic read by the author. My Bronc Riding Cowgirl is the sixth book in the My Cowboy Series. It’s also the second book in the series that I’ve read. It can be read as a standalone.

Tori is a cowgirl at heart. Nothing is going to change that. That is until someone waltzes into her life. Now she’s got to focus and get back on the horse. The quote I chose for Tori is: “Listen here, buddy. I’m not some eye candy you can say whatever the hell your egotistical a** thinks is charming.” Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have better things to do today than twirl my hair and switch my balance from one foot to another while entertaining you.”

Cord is famous and used to having women throw themselves at him. That is until he meets Tori. Now he’s got to win her over. Can he do it? The quote I chose for Cord is: “Morning. My dad drew me a map otherwise I’d been lost and I doubt I would have made it back to town.”

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Grave Digger Academy by C.A. King is a fun, fast paced, ya, paranormal read that you don’t want to miss. This series gives you a Harry Potteresque feel as you learn magic with the witch, Makayla and her unique friends.

When Makayla gets denied by her top three paranormal academies she is sent to the academy that no one wants, GraveDigger Academy. It’s here she meets a unique group of individuals, some who become friends while others are better left as enemies. Makayla faces a lot of unique twists, turns, and challenges in this book.

Personally I loved being immersed in this new world of magic. This series has everything you want in a ya paranormal book such as: action, humor, interesting characters, great world building, and an interesting storyline. I’m really glad I found this book and I can’t wait to read the rest of this series.

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. The Lonely Hearts of San Sity is a fantastic read. Enemies to lovers is a great way for romance to happen.

Jules is in San Sity for a new reality show. She’s holding auditions for the show. When she gets to town everyone seems friendly. Now she’s got to convince one Mitchel to join the show. The quote I chose for Jules is: “Jesus. I hope we don’t have to deal with this every minute.”

Mitchel is a rancher. He loves what he does and doesn’t watch much TV. His aunt tries talking him into joining the show. He flat out refuses and then Jules shows up. He wants her, but knows he shouldn’t. The quote I chose for Mitchel is: “I haven’t heard of those shows. I don’t watch TV.”

And just when I thought the book was almost over, I’m only 44% of the way done?! Hello what more can happen!? Melody’s rant toward Imani was perfection. I loved every word. Between all of the friends getting their own chapter it seemed, there was so much development. It sometimes became hard to keep up but because it all ties together it does come back around. I am so rooting for Lance. He is turning into a better guy although he does still have his moments. The love this trio of friends has for one another is so obvious and I am here for it.

The Colors of Friendship by K. R. Raye is book one in The Colors Trilogy. I took a chance on this book and overall I did enjoy it. Some of this was hard to read and not necessarily because of content. There seemed to be too many parts of the story. Too many different peoples voices to read about. I wasn’t sure whose story this was supposed to be or the trio as a whole. I did like that you seemed to get the full picture if what was happening but just felt like too many voices. I really liked Imani, she was the perfect best friend. Though their friendships seemed a little weird for only knowing one another a short time, I think back to my own freshman year of college and absolutely bonded with a “random” guy on the first day and we are still friends to this day. So the story felt realistic. And shoot I wasn’t expecting that ending! What a cliffhanger! I cannot wait to read book two!

Emma is back with her team. She’s still working for the bakery and as a courier. When a co-worker needs her help she does it. The quote I chose for Emma is: “Something has put this notion in his head. He’s coming over tonight to review the case with us. He’ll be here at eight.

Grave Digger AcademyGrave Digger Academy by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Grave Digger Academy is a fun YA fantasy novel. It’s perfect for fans of magic boarding schools! This story sees Makayla failing to live up to the expectations of her parents and older brothers, but finding her own place and path in the world.
There’s a fun cast of characters! Makayla soon gets to know classmates such as Thomas, Cali and Leo who are united by not having applied to Grave Digger Academy but ending up there anyway. And there are the teachers, such as Tallen, Ms Moth, and Ms Dred. Makayla’s never had much talent for getting on with people, and has to learn to make friends and work with others.
The world building is lovely – the school is very well described as Makayla arrives and gets to know it, and it’s so atmospheric and captivating! I really felt like I’d been transported to a new and magical world – so much food for the imagination!
This book gets five stars from me! I’d recommend it to confident teen readers and young adults who’ve enjoyed magic school books in the past such as the Children of the Red King series and are looking for something new to fall in love with.

Jake (Billionaire Blind Dates #1) by Toni Denise

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. It won’t be my last. The book had me hooked from the beginning. I didn’t want it to end and I will be looking forward to the next book. Jake is the first book in the Billionaire Blind Dates Series.

Jake is a billionaire and is proud of it. What he’s not proud of is the women thinking they can demand an engagement shortly after they start dating. His friends want him to go on a blind date. How will he feel once he finds he’s dating his friend Cade’s assistant. The quote I chose for Jake is: “What would happen the moment she sees my name? She’d look me up and we’d be right where I am now. No difference, just more hoops to jump through.”

Lauren doesn’t like billionaires and won’t date them. She’s also having problems with her roommate. When her friend Catherine offers, once again, for her to move in she takes it. It’s not long before Catherine talks her into going on a blind date. There she’ll meet Jake and fall for him. What happens when she finds that he’s a billionaire? The quote I chose for Lauren is:“I’m game. Let me grab some things for overnight then, so I can at least brush my teeth.”

This book was a must read in my books, I love how the story was told. We really got to see through the eyes of living in fame. The book was eye opening at moments, enjoyed the depth in which it went.

Personally I loved how Melodie was the one who told the story. You got to understand her, feel her emotions, when she was happy or when she felt pained and alone. To me that was deep and meaningful and I enjoyed that aspect. I loved how Music was Incorporated into the story as much as it was. Really well with the story and the characters. I enjoyed Will as a character as well. Him and Melanie were adorable. Things were not easy though, there was good as well as not so great moments. I loved how the story went the author certainly has a way with their writing! I was very much intrigued all the way through. I very much cannot wait to read book 2, with the cliff hanger that happened! I very much loved this book and its contents.

Great read. Deep and full of intrigue, and its own brand of cuteness with the characters. Eye opening. Must read the author as well for sure. Must read book. Highly recommend this author and book without a doubt!

I really enjoyed this story. I like the fact that the story is told from the point of view of El (Melodie) and Wil. It really helps the story have more depth and it wasn’t done in a way that made the story confusing to read. The main aspect of this book is music and the passion surrounding it. There are a lot of secrets and lies to uncover and unravel as the story progresses and when each is revealed it brings more insight into our characters.

El is the step daughter of a famous rockstar. Her dream is to make it in the music business off her own talent. El loves music and really wants to make it her life but with her over protective mother and step- father everytime she tries they always seem to destroy her dream.
Wil moves to Amercia to find his dad. He knows he is a famous rockstar. So he moves to America under the disguse of being part of a show but with hopes of finding his dad.

When Wil and El meet in a bar Wil steps in to help her after she is let down. After singing together they start to get closer and their chemistry is intense.
But there are secrets that will be revealed which will cause heartbreak for one or both of them.

What is the secret which will change their lives? Will El ever get her music career off the ground or will her parents continue to stop her? Will Wil ever find his father and what will be the outcome if he does?

This books is a beautiful story to read. The romance is slow blooming and captivatingly written. I literally got lost in El and Wil’s story and didn’t want it to end.

Grave Digger AcademyGrave Digger Academy by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I almost didn’t pick this one up to read but thought, why not? I’m so glad I took a chance on it!

It’s Makayla’s first year to attend academy and she spent some time choosing her top 3 picks, just like all witches get to do when they come of age. Her picks are in and she waits but hears nothing prior to the start of school. She wakes up late and misses her ride so she’s doomed to take the bus. No one but losers ride the bus the school! She arrives at the door to the academy but isn’t sure which specific realm she’s assigned to. She quickly learns that she has to learn everything for herself. She’s from a strong family of witches who’ve been accepted to the best and most prestigious schools so she has high hopes.

Makayla soon learns that she didn’t get any of her top 3 choices, so the only other option was an assignment to the Grave Digger Academy. NO ONE applied or wanted the Grave Digger Academy and just wait until her dad hears about this…..her life is over!! Things start to come to light and Makayla begins learning more about her family, along with the mysterious amulet her mother gave her shortly before boarding the bus. Will she survive her first year? Even better, what about summer vacation after her first year?

This was a super fun read. There are elements of comedy (I laughed many times!), romance (very subtle), and paranormal activity. It is a very well written story that kept my attention throughout. I look forward to reading more books in this series!

This book is the first book in the Philly Heat Series, but can be read as a stand alone. The book is about Kylee and Jayson and their journey together. It begins when they are in high school and picks up in present day. Kylee always had a crush on Jayson, but she thought he blew their bet off in high school. Years later she finds out the real truth on what really happened and why he never showed up. When things start going well between them now, Jayson leaves out of the blue, only to return years later to try to rekindle the relationship and explain why he left. When things start coming together again, they face another crises, this one together.
I could not put this book down. It had romance, suspense and somewhat of a thriller all in one. It was a great read!
