My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Daring Ceri
By: Morgana Bevan

Morgana Bevan has become one of my favorite authors. I was definitely excited when I saw this new release. This definitely was worth my excitement. This is a fantastic enemies to lovers story. Ceri and Alex were lovers once and apparently got married in Fiji. However, Ceri definitely doesn’t remember marrying Alex and this is getting in the way of her planned marriage. Alex isn’t willing to sign the paperwork though, until she is positive she doesn’t want to be with him anymore. Ceri and Alex have amazing development as characters. It was interesting to see how they each grew and developed, which was very similar to how I would imagine they would evolve in the real world. I definitely enjoyed watching them grow in their relationship and understanding of one another. I definitely recommend reading this! Its fantastic with an excellent plot and character development.

The Hand of God: From Oppenheimer to Hypersonics by Paul McCarthy – Review by Christine Baranek

The Hand of God: From Oppenheimer to Hypersonics - A Crash Course on Nuclear Weapons and Humankind's Most Dangerous GameThe Hand of God: From Oppenheimer to Hypersonics – A Crash Course on Nuclear Weapons and Humankind’s Most Dangerous Game by Paul McCarthy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Hand of God
By: Paul McCartney

This is the absolute most informative book I have ever read. I did not know much about nuclear weapons when I started this book and I picked it up because it sounded intriguing. This delivers on being a crash course into nuclear power. I was concerned at first about reading this because I was a little worried that it was going to be heavy or hard on technical terms. However, that is not the case. It is actually an easy read that gave me so much information. I feel much more knowledgeable about the history of nuclear weapons and I definitely feel like I have a much better understanding of them. I definitely recommend this book for anyone who is interested in finding out more about nuclear weapons. It was so well written and easy to read!

Shattered: a Logan McKenna Mystery Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series) by Valerie Davisson – Review by Betsy Melano

Shattered: Logan Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series)Shattered: Logan Book 1 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

With her husband Jack passing due to a car accident, Logan McKenna must continue living and find ways to survive. Although teaching didn’t seem to pan out, Logan continues to find her place in the world. Maybe it’s through helping friends at their booth at an arts festival.
A dead body is found in one of the other booths and the police suspect Logan’s friend is the killer. Logan feels a great need to help her friend.
This book is well written and I enjoyed learning about the main character Logan. She’s a strong woman who cares for others and I can easily relate to her. The world building helped put the story together. A good mystery book and a new series I’m looking forward to read more books by this author.

As Though You Were Mine by J. Marie Rundquist – Review by Heidi Sturgess

As Though You Were MineAs Though You Were Mine by J. Marie Rundquist
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you’re feeling emotionally challenged or weepy in any way don’t read this book ! You have been warned ! I cried buckets and I thought I could feel my heart tear into pieces but it’s a beautiful read , a bit of an oxymoron I know but it is what it is ….

Julie is single and care free , she never wanted kids of her own and she never hesitated to donate some of her eggs to her sister in law and brother so that they could conceive via in vitro and have their little family but life takes a sudden and tragic turn when they’re killed in an accident 🥲Julie becomes an instant mom to 2 kids and being Aunty is alot different to being mommy !

The twins , Mikey and Lucy are 4 and that’s not an easy age as it and each have their own issues to cope with over and above the grief and trauma of loosing their parents it’s an overwhelming situation for all involved and my heart just aches for them ….

Grant , their uncle , also a donor offers to help Julie in tearing the kids and I’m grateful to him but like Julie I have my suspicions and I think it’s just because we’re human really , right ?!

Julie didn’t have an easy time either I mean she’s grieving , she’s an instant parent she has people questioning her and life altering decisions made on her behalf and I’m sure she herself had doubts at a stage . sometimes it felt like she was a sinking ship in the ocean and I just wanted to scream at people to back up a little ., cut her done slack and help and encourage instead …..

A read that felt so very real , raw and emotional ! You can identify with the characters on so many levels 🤗

Killer BlondeKiller Blonde by Allan Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was just brilliant ! My nails are chewed to the quick 🤫🫣my blood pressure has risen , I’ve hit out in a rash and I’m so grateful for my pink hair 🤣😉😜

If you’re blonde don’t read this because your next trip will be to the salon and not the grocery store 😱😉

This killer is smart which makes him even more dangerous and he seems to know how to leave no trace but Cade is hot on his heels and this feeds our killers murder lust even more , he’s loving the challenge but the girls are his gateway to the actual prize …. Cade 😱

Seeing the victims through the eyes of the killer had me on edge and I could smell their fear I kid you not ! From the victim’s perspective I could feel their fear , Evans writing style is superb !

While I was reading I’d share bits of it with anyone who’d listen and it piqued their interest because I got asked for updates and progress #truestory#

Every killer has a certain criteria but they also make a mistake , eventually and watching Cade pit the puzzle pieces together was brilliant and I can’t wait to devour more of this mastermind and his work ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Daring Ceri by Morgana Bevan – Review by Jennifer Larson

Daring Ceri (True Platinum #6)Daring Ceri by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Daring Ceri by Morgana Bevan

Daring Ceri by Morgana Bevan is a lovers to enemies to lovers again. This story can be read as a standalone along with the other books in the series. This takes during and after Braving lily if you follow the series. You will get the inside look into Ceri and Alex’s life and how everything happened in the beginning and up to being “reunited” under extreme circumstances.

Ceri is going about her life getting ready to marry Richard, getting there marriage certificate for the wedding in October till things took a turn of her worst nightmares. What will she do?

This story is brilliant, it is in a UK setting as all the books I’ve read so far in this series are. (Daring Ceri, Braving Lily, Defying Ella). Ceri and Alex’s story is really what it’s like to date someone from your past or even present. A matter of giving chance after chance just to have your heart broken, the constant push of “what if”. “What if they really have changed and things could be different this time?” But overall this book shows that 2 people can really find their way back to one another that anything is possible. I believe anyone who loves a rockstar romance with lovers to enemies to lovers again should read this. It was truly impeccable. 5 stars to this gem.

Braving Lily by Morgana Bevan – Review by Jennifer Larson

Braving Lily (True Platinum, #5)Braving Lily by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Braving lily by Morgana Bevan

Braving lily by Morgana Bevan is a beautiful story with a dual POV by Lily and Rhys. This story starts right where defying Ella left off, Lily getting stood up on a date by a guy she’s never met. She only took this date by donating it for a charity event. Well being as she’s super famous you wouldn’t think someone of her status would get stood up. So she did what no sane person would do in this situation like cutting there losses, no. She went to find him after talking to his mother since she’s set this date up and purchased the winning bid on the date. What will Lily do when she finds him? And how will Rhys react?

This is a beautiful story about how 2 souls come to meet under completely different circumstances, let alone social statuses. I love how Lily just wanted some normal in her life along with privacy, especially where being in the spot light since she was 16 you aren’t granted that. Things took an interesting turn when she met Rhys. Their story is beautiful and shows that anything is possible when you have patience in a relationship no matter where you come from. Just because you’re famous or if you feel like you don’t deserve someone because they are famous doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. The chemistry in this book is undeniable and flowed so easily. Overall a 5 star book.

Mr. Wimp (The Human Mating Site Book 1) by B.L. Wilde – Review by Michaela Massie

Mr Wimp (The Human Mating Site #1)Mr Wimp by B.L. Wilde
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Let me start off by saying that this was genuinely entertaining, and I really enjoyed the laughs. This book has a bit of everything, from spice, to humor, to deceit, to drama. Relationships are ROUGH. Especially for our girl, Bella. She is in her thirties and is splitting from her husband (also known as Mr. Wimp) after 12 years together. She dips her food in the pool of online dating, and finds just how entertaining it can be trying to find a Mr. Right in this world, while discovering much of herself in the process.

Liar, Liar (The McIntire County Series Book 4) by Winter Austin – Review by Shelly Kittell

Liar, Liar (The McIntire County Series: #4)Liar, Liar by Winter Austin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh my goodness, I have changed my mind, all the books in this series are my favorites. This is Shane and Liza’s story. Shane is the Sheriff and this is the craziest case yet. The adventures that come out of this case of figuring out who took out Gene Avery is wild. Liza Bartholomew is Boyce’s ex-FBI partner come back on a secret mission. The twists and turns, you just don’t see it coming. The characters in this town are crazy. Kind of like Mayberry gone wild. I loved seeing some of the ones from the past books come back into the story. I wish this series could just go one. I have a feeling McIntire County has many more secrets. I have enjoyed watching Shane and Liza’s romance develop. These two are a pair I didn’t quite see coming. They both had issues to work through. I have enjoyed this book. This whole series is so full of action, you just can’t go wrong. It’s the best series I’ve read this year.

Wow, this book really blew me away!! I read this one in a day, it was that good. The would building and characters was well thought of. I have not read the other bools in the series, but I plan on going back and starting from book one. Even though I didn’t start from book one I was able to follow along with what happened in the previous books. If you are into cozy mystery books, this is the book for you.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gumshoe goes to a Quinceanera
By: Laura Hawks

This is the second book in the Gumshoe Mysteries. I have read both and both are absolutely amazing. These are such a fun, cozy, YA mysteries that feature some paranormal activities. I definitely love that these books feature fantastic dialogue and a main character who is always finding herself in the middle of an adventure. One thing I will say is that Laura Hawks knows how to write a plot that keeps you guessing. I definitely loved the element of suspense that was found throughout. This was an absolutely fantastic book and I love how Laura Hawks has further developed both Mia and Gumshoe from the first book. I felt like there was more character depth in this book than in the first one. I definitely am looking forward to continuing this series!

Gumshoe and the mysterious mushrooms
By: Laura Hawks
This is a fantastic start to a new teen mystery series. It features Mia who is an absolutely amazingly well written character. She is intelligent and gifted. Gumshoe is not exactly who you would expect – he is a cat – who has an incredibly complicated past and a really fun sense of humor. These two have fantastic dialogue that drives the plot. Even though this is a teen book I found myself deeply enjoying the story. It is a great mystery that keeps you guessing but with characters that keep you laughing. It is truly a fun read that I will be recommending to everyone I know. I definitely cannot wait to read the next book in the series!

Wild For Me (Balefire, #3)Wild For Me by Tam DeRudder Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wild For Me
By: Tam DeRudder Jackson

Once again Tam DeRudder Jackson has written a fantastic book. I have read each and every one of the books of the Balefire Series so far and each one is better than the next. Tam DeRudder Jackson does a fantastic job developing characters who are believable but who are also rock stars. She shows the life of sex, drugs and rock and roll in all of its glory and does it in such a way that you look at the characters and feel like they are incredibly relatable. The characters in Balefire so far have been so well developed that I truly feel like I know them on a personal level.
These books are each written as a standalone, but I definitely recommend reading each and every one. There is some character overlap between books. Also and perhaps most importantly – if you miss a book you are really missing an essential piece to Balefire. Tam DeRudder Jackson has really created a crazy yet wonderful world around this band and I definitely recommend going along for the full ride. I cannot wait to see what will happen in the next book!

Lies – Truth – Love
By: Marina Hanna

This is the first book in the Which Comes First series. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next book. This book is filled with so many twists and so much drama that it sucks you in from the start and really doesn’t let you go until you finish. Trust me when I say you will not want to put it down once you start reading. Marina Hanna has a fantastic ability in developing her characters. They are definitely portrayed incredibly realistically – especially with how it comes to our two main characters. Ethan and Olivia are very entertaining and are the perfect characters to portray finding live when you least expect it. This isn’t your typical romance and it really contains enough for everyone. This was such a fantastic book and I cannot wait to see how this series continues to develop.

This is literally such a fun holiday read. It is exactly what I needed to begin to get me into the holiday spirit. This story takes place in the most amazing town called Emerald Hollow, Oregon. It has the best vibe and is filled with the most amazing characters. This is a book that definitely makes you stop and think – as a major theme is finding balance in your life. This book was absolutely fantastic and I loved all the twists on the conventional holiday trope. I definitely recommend this and feel the only thing that would have made this book better is if there had been snow on the ground and I was sitting by the Christmas Tree.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Alice got a bad rap from her family in the past books because she couldn’t really decide what she wanted to do. Now she has come home and her family, along with the town busybodies (Trudy), have started in. Along comes James, who has an instant attraction to her. She has become his muse. These two have some issues to work out. I loved this story. As things get worked through, Alice suggests they “fake date” each other. This story is so cute and adorable. This series is one of the most adorable romance series I’ve read so I was looking forward to this especially after book 3. Their adventures and misadventures during this time had me chuckling and laughing. From spilling ginger ale to showing paintings to his agent to scarecrows in a diner, this is a romance story that you can’t miss. Old faces are mixed within the story. Alice and Jame’s story will have you rooting for them as the old biddies in town are grumpy and living in the past. You have to read this one. I recommend it highly.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Vixen
By: D.M. Earl

I have to begin by saying I have NEVER been disappointed by a D.M. Earl book. The Devil’s Handmaidens MC series feels like I am returning to a long lost friend every time that I pick up a new book. Each of these females is incredibly strong, yet they have seen so much and their emotions just jump off the page. Each of them has seen things and has been strong because they have not had any other options. These main characters have become some of my favorites and I have found myself reaching to reread one when i am entering a reading slump, or just want to return to an old friend. Vixen thought she had escaped and was definitely ready for some peace. However the past is never in the past. Lucas and Vixen definitely have a complex relationship and I loved watching it unfold. I am definitely anxiously waiting for the next book. I cannot wait to see how each of these characters continues to develop.

I have loved the Wine Maker’s Series since I picked up the first one. Each and every one I have read so far has not disappointed. I know that when I pick one of these up I will get a historical fiction novel that will keep me reading long past my bedtime. In this story, we learn more about Isabel and how much she loves her country. However, she had so many expectations placed on her that she really felt like she had the weight of the world on her shoulders. Henrique is an incredibly interesting viscount. Once again, Giovanna has written a story with a love story that is absolutely swoon worthy. I definitely cannot recommend this book, and this whole series. I LOVE this series and I cannot wait for another book to come out.

What We Never Say
By: Paulette Stout

This book is a fantastic look at power, control, and unwanted attention. However, it takes a look at it from a male perspective. Which I truly enjoyed. Sometimes, I like my perspectives to be challenged by showing me things other than what I am used to. I loved how Paulette Stout tackled the subject of males being harassed by a female in power. I think that this is an area that is generally overlooked. This book tackles this subject matter in such a fantastic way and shows how these actions have such far reaching consequences. I definitely cannot recommend this book enough!

Defying Ella by Morgana Bevan – Review by Jennifer Larson

Defying Ella (True Platinum #4)Defying Ella by Morgana Bevan

Defying Ella by Morgana Bevan

Defying Ella by Morgana Bevan is a rockstar romance. It follows a lovers to enemies to lovers aspect, and it flows flawlessly. This is a book based on characters from the UK and it was…. GIVING. Ella is just your ordinary 24 year old trying to find her place in the world where her sister is dating a big time band member. Ella met a guy in a bar which led to the best week of her life until it ended, come to find out it was her soon to be brother in laws band mate which changed everything.

This story for me was very relatable and put some realizations that I will now use in my current life and relationship. Ellas feelings through out this whole book were valid and spoke volumes for how she was treated, let alone the back and forth banter was comical. This is a standalone series so the books don’t necessarily need to be read in order which is great cause this is the first book I’ve read from Morgana. I’m excited to start the next book Braving Lily! But overall this book is a solid 5 stars, the story flows and hit all the giddy and spicy moments to a T. I strongly recommend this book if your into a good rockstar romance.

Winter Austin literally never disappoints with her books. I know when I am reading oe of hers that I will be treated to a page turner with fantastic characters and that I will be kept guessing until the very end. Her character development is absolutely unmatched. I love how this series is featuring women in law enforcement with incredibly complicated pasts. Their pasts are influencing there present as well. I also love that these feature a love story. A romantic relationship that must survive many things, including someone terrorizing them. This book was so fast paced and I really loved Cassy and Boyce. I am definitely eagerly awaiting my next book by Winter Austin.
