Cruel Hate (Hidden Valley Elite #5)Cruel Hate by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Isla Vaughn is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine! She delivers, yet again, with Book 5 in the Hidden Valley Elite Series, Cruel Hate. This book follows Aspen and Phoenix’s story as they navigate their physical need for each other while finding it difficult to find common ground on anything else. Throw a pregnancy into the mix and this story has it all; angst, sports, fake relationship, and plenty of drama! The world building is wonderful and more solidly connected than some of the earlier books in the series. I feel like this one flows a little better and was less rushed. Isla Vaughn creates such perfectly imperfect characters that the reader can’t help but feel invested in. You can’t help but hope for a happy ending. Speaking of endings, Cruel Hate definitely ends in a cliffhanger!

This was a cute read however it felt a little forced!
There definitely was a point where it was dragged out and the book could have ended, the dialogue especially with the aunt was forced and awkward. This was an easy read that would be a good YA starter.

A Death on Fools Lane (An Eve Sawyer Mystery) by Jane Suen

A Death on Fools Lane is the fourth book in the An Eve Sawyer Mystery Series and is a wonderfully written Cozy Mystery. Each book in this series gets better and better than the last and this one I have to say is my favorite yet. I pretty much devoured this book in one afternoon because I had to know what was going to happen next. I do recommend reading this series in order as each book helps you learn more about the characters and where Eve started and to see her growth throughout the series. But they can be read as standalones as well. This is a fast-paced story about Eve who is a strong independent woman is a undergrad college student that lives for getting the story. Trouble seems to find her no matter where she’s at and her biggest problem is saying no. Eve and her friends are racing against the clock to solve the mystery or will she become the next victim? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Eve Sawyer is a journalism student and is excited that she gets to house sit with a couple of friends over the winter holiday. Everything goes south really quickly though when a neighbor out walking his dog comes across a body hanging in a tree…and it’s in the yard of the house where Eve and her friends are staying.

This was a great little story that I read in just about an hour and a half. It kept me engaged in what was happening and I enjoyed the little twists and turns throughout. While this is part of a series, this book can easily be read as a stand alone. I look forward to reading more work by this author.

Rocketship Made of Stars: Naming Constellations (I am an Alien)Rocketship Made of Stars: Naming Constellations by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rocketship Made of Stars is the 2nd book in the children’s series I am an Alien. While it does follow the first book, it is cute and can be read without the previous book. Shirl has a friend who is an alien, that we met in the first book. The alien’s name is Eee-ahh, and has landed on Earth and decided to stay a while. She decides to go to school with Sherl one day, to listen to the stories. Turns out, the kids are just as interested in HER story, and she is in theirs. They learn about constellations and the different names for them. It is a cute, but educational story. My seven year old enjoyed it, but we both struggle to see pictures in the common constellations.

As Though You Were MineAs Though You Were Mine by J. Marie Rundquist
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book so much. The synopsis intrigued me, but I had never read this author before. I am a new fan! Julie Mercer becomes an instant mother to four year old twins when her brother and his wife die in a car accident. That, by itself, is a story. But to make things even more interesting, Julie donated her eggs for in vitro fertilization for the twins. But ultimately, all of that is just a backdrop for the story about complicated family relationships. I enjoyed Julie’s angst as a new mom, struggling to figure out how to parent, navigate child care, and the plethora of other issues facing parents today. Not only that, but there’s a bit of a love story thrown in. Great book, and I can’t wait to read more by this author!

I finished this book in one reading stint. The need to know what was happening next kept me fully engrossed in the story. It follows our main character Violet who has started her own security company. A protest in town is the task at hand for her company and one of the leaders of the protest just happens to be her mother. The atmosphere and tension of the story that unfolds leaves you feeling like you are in the protest. This book has both the suspense and the family drama.

When We Fell Again
By: Julie Archer

This is a fantastic rock and roll story. It is angsty at its best and filled with flawed well written characters. I really felt that Julie Archer thought of everything when it came to developing Jordan and Alexis. This is a second chance romance and Julie Archer did a fantastic job of portraying the baggage that comes with a second connection. The characters and their issues felt so real. I really just wanted to become a part of the story. I absolutely loved Jordan and Alexis and I definitely was sad when this story came to an end! I definitely recommend picking this one up!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lucky Break
By: Lee Wood

This is the second book in the Trentbridge Crime Series. This definitely functions as a standalone, but there is some overlap in characters, so I do recommend reading the first one to really get a feel for all of these characters because both are such amazing books. Peter Winston-Moore is such an interesting character. He is one who really just “steps in it” big time. However, the real character I enjoyed the most is James Sheldon who works as a private investigator whose case is way more complicated than he ever would have suspected on first glance. This author does a fantastic job developing characters, but more importantly he does an absolutely amazing job developing the setting. Everything is described in such a way that you feel like you can absolutely visualize where the story is taking place. Given that this book deals with murder and a private investigator this is a talent that should not go unnoticed. As a reader you feel like you are discovering clues with James Sheldon, not just reading about James Sheldon discovering leads and clues. I really truly cannot recommend this book, and this whole series enough!

The Mother’s Threat
By: Susan Specht Oram

Susan Specht Oram has become one of my go to authors for thrillers. This one definitely was exactly what I love about her writing, it is entertaining, suspenseful, and full of twists and turns. The Mother’s Threat features a female main character named Violet Cleveland who was incredibly relatable. She was a woman who listened to what I call her “spidey senses”. Her parents definitely were an added part to the twists and turns in the story. They were definitely a distraction for Violet but I definitely related to her worry for them. Violet (and this whole story) was emotionally charged and I found that as a large part of what I loved about the story. It kept me reading and wondering how Violet was going to handle certain situations. There were many times where I thought I would have lost my cool only to see Violet continue to try to keep a calm head and her new business open and in tact. This book was legitimately so good and I definitely loved all the twists and turns in this story. Violet was the perfect main character and her parents were the perfect opposite to her. I definitely recommend this story for anyone who loves a good thriller or anyone who loves a good strong female lead with a complicated family.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Murder Creek
By: Jane Suen

This is a cozy mystery. Which is short and quick to read. I found it to be the perfect mystery to read one rainy night where I really just wanted to sit and read and be cuddled up with my favorite blanket, a warm drink, and a good book that I can be absorbed in until the rain stops. This story focuses on Eve who begins to wonder how Murder Creek got its name. She begins to research and finds herself deep into a 20 year old missing person case. She soon finds herself obsessed. She ends up writing a term paper on this case and decides to spend some time trying to solve a case that had been unsolved for 20 years. Eve becomes an amazing investigative journalist and begins to get the locals to warm up to her and begin talking. I truly enjoyed Eve as a character. I know I have become hyper fixated on something to the point that I can’t let it go. I feel like this is Eve with this case. But I also feel like its why some of the locals start to open up, because they can tell shes just intrigued and in college so no one really thinks she will solve anything. I definitely enjoyed this story. I thought that is was exactly as it was described – a cozy mystery. I loved it and definitely want to read more written by Jane Suen soon!

Frank and Jon Reed are twins. Not just any twins, but “gifted” twins. Frank has the gift of telepathy and Jon is an oracle. Both boys attend school at West Hills School for the Perceptually Gifted . When events begin happening that could shut the school down, Frank and Jon join their friends together to get to the bottom of the mystery. This was a quick read that kept me entertained the entire book.

This is a well-crafted mystery. The characters are believable- they are real enough to be fallible. I enjoyed the fact that the characters were able to minister to others in times of great sorrow. Readers who have not personally encountered tragedy may gain a small understanding of what to do (or not do) around others who are going through something terrible. I will definitely read another book featuring the main character.

Love and Stilettos caught my attention by the gorgeous cover art and I was pleasantly surprised by the speed in which I fell in love with the writing. I love books that have names or titles of each chapter, so I was really excited to see this story featured that. Many romance novels that I’ve read have duel perspectives and alternate between the main male and female but I really liked that this story was told entirely from Mia’s perspective. As if the small details I’ve already listed weren’t reason enough to give this novel a chance, the characters were warm, kind and relatable. I felt like they were my friends from the very first page!

This is a cute book for grade school age kids. My 9 and 10 year old enjoyed it. Shirl is a little girl on Earth who reaches out to the vast reaches of the Universe by sending out a radio transmission that Eee-aah, an alien from a far away planet, responds to. Eee-aah is excited to go to school with Shirl, and Shirl is equally excited to introduce her new friend to her schoolmates. While Shirl and Eee-aah are at school, the young alien talks to Shirl’s class about her home planet and the constellations that can be seen from it, as well as the constellations that can be seen from Earth, with help from the other students and the teacher. The illustrations are fantastic, and the information section at the end of the book about constellations is an excellent addition.

A Forever Kind of ThingA Forever Kind of Thing by Carrie Thomas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was such a sweet YA romance. It gave a complete picture of how school life can be for some people and how cruel kids can be towards other children when they come from different backgrounds. This is a story of finding your person. The person that gets you completely only to lose them and then find them again. It is a story which is a mixture of pain as Mina has to deal with bullying due to her family circumstances, joy and love as she falls for Wes and then heartbreak when he disappears on her without a word.
The connection between Wes and Mina was beautiful to read. Both of them have troubled home life’s but they managed to find a sense of happiness with each other.

Fast forward and Mina’s life has completely changed since her mother remarried. Mina now goes to a posh school where she is popular and the Queen. Her life seems perfect and the act she puts on fools them all. However, Wes is never far from her mind.
Wes’s life hasn’t changed much and when he gets a scholarship to go to the school Mina is at their 2 worlds collide all over again. As old feelings resurface will Mina and Wes finally get their happy ever after or will Mina’s new act and position stop any chance of that. Is the unicorn loving girl that Wes fell in love with still there or has she been lost forever as she struggled to find a way to survive high-school on her own.

I loved both Mina and Wes characters. I could completely understand Mina’s need to fit in no matter the cost but once Wes is back I love how she was prepared to give it all up if he could promise never to leave her again. This book definately tugs at the heartstrings and the connection between Wes and Mina was beautiful to read and watch develop.

When We Fell Again: An angsty, second chance rockstar romanceWhen We Fell Again: An angsty, second chance rockstar romance by Julie Archer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Content Warning: Sexual Harassment, Drug Addiction, Drug Overdose. When We Fell Again follows Jordan, lead singer of rock band Idol Rev, and Alexis, Jordan’s ex-girlfriend and tour manager of Idol Rev’s comeback tour. It’s been five years since Jordan and Alexis last saw each other and they’ve both changed a lot, but their feelings come back to the surface after spending so much time together. Jordan is immediately ready to jump back into a relationship, but Alexis isn’t so sure. When she finally makes her decision, Jordan is more than willing to show her how much he has changed for the better. And it was all going so well… but I have complicated feelings about the ending. Jordan relapsed, and it was so disappointing. I know relapses happen in real life and I understand the complexity of addiction but I was expecting a second chance romance, and I can’t support a male main character putting the female main character through this, how am I supposed to root for him after that? My favourite character was Alexis and least favourite character was Arlo. I recommend this book because it was an interesting read with the right amount of twists and turns and a good amount of angst. I am glad there’s a happy ending, and I love how their last names are Bowie and Jagger. ‘The touch felt so familiar, so intimate, like the past five years had melted away and we were the same as we once were.’

4.5 Stars
A Death on Fools Lane Murder Off Route 82 is the Fourth book in the Eve Sawyer Mystery Series by Jane Suen. I think this is my favourite Eve Sawyer Mystery to date.
This book picks up where book 3 left off. They can be read as standalones, but I suggest you start with the first book and work your way through. That way you get to see where Eve started and how she has grown throughout the series.
Eve Sawyer is a college undergrad student and loves nothing more than getting the story. This tenacious young woman seems to find trouble even when she is not looking. The other thing is she can’t say no when others need her help. Eve and friends are looking forward to relaxing and settling in for the holiday season, the smell of Christmas is in the air but so is trouble. As Eve and her two friends are drawn into helping solve a mysterious death, they find more than they bargained for.
What secrets come to light as she and her friends race against time as their lives once again become endangered.
This engaging cozy mystery is fast-paced and has everything to make the pages turn.
Be sure to grab a copy and settle in for an afternoon read.

4.5 Stars

 

A Death On Fool’s Lane is the fourth engrossing instalment in the Eve Sawyer Mystery Series by Jane Suen. This is an intriguing cozy mystery woven with suspense, drama, friendship, family, crime and investigation, interesting characters, secrets, lies, and more. Being set around the Christmas holidays also adds an extra element of interest to the story.
We join Eve Sawyer, and her friends, as they find themselves caught up in quite an unusual murder mystery. We have met Eve (and some of her friends) in the previous books. Eve is a college journalism student who has a great ‘nose’ for sniffing out a good story, but also seems to attract trouble and danger. In this story Eve is invited to house sit for a friends aunt who will be away over the holidays. It is an opportunity to relax, unwind, and explore that Eve just can’t resist. But little did she know that this trip would bring mystery right to her doorstep, as a body is found hanging from a tree in the backyard. What happened? How did the body come to be in there? Is it really a suicide, or something more sinister? Well, this is well worth the read to find out.
As expected from Ms. Suen, this is a fun little mystery with all the ingredients needed to keep you flipping the pages to find out what happens.
This story could be read as a standalone. But, I highly recommend reading the previous books, as there is a lot of interesting developments, intriguing mysteries, character introductions/details, and other relevant information that will enhance your appreciation and enjoyment of this book (and series as a whole).
Can’t wait to see what Eve gets up to in the next book. Bring it on!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Jane Suen!

The Guardsman (The Olympic Peninsula series Book 2)The Guardsman by Cat Treadgold
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed The Guardsman, it’s the 2nd book in this series. The author wrote a follow up novel that works out quite well.
Liam has returned! Ali has her twin back, but does she? He’s changed and he has secrets to keep. Is it for good reason or just privacy to spare what really happened?
Teresa is the one who finally convinced him to admit his true identity and come home. She also has a lot on her plate she’s running from. Running right into Liam’s arms. When freak accidents start happening one starts to wonder if someone is after her.
The author navigates all these obstacles and challenges wonderfully. The growth of Liam’s character is what kept me glued to this novel. Despite his past he’s one of the good ones, however does he know that?
You don’t necessarily have to read book 1 to read book 2. It’s a series but a standalone in its own right. Now for you it’s time to check it out! Me I’m going to go back to book 1 and read it right through book 2 to see if I’m missing anything.

Love & StilettosLove & Stilettos by Evelyn Lindell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When Mia returns to Kentucky to live with her grandmother to start over after the death of her husband, she is not prepared to see her childhood friend with whom she hasn’t spoken to in over a decade. While Mitch seems excited to rekindle the friendship, Mia treads the line carefully in order to not step on the toes of Mitch’s fiancé. But, as lies and secrets come to light, Mia is not sure who she can really trust. When her life begins to spiral due to the actions of those around her, Mia must place her faith somewhere…hopefully it’s in the right person.

I enjoyed this book so much that I did not put it down until I had finished it. Mia is the type of character that pulls me in…she is brave and courageous, with a side of clumsiness and self-doubt. In other words, she comes off as half the people I know in real life! To watch her relationship with Mitch grow and evolve was pure entertainment. And her grandmother was AMAZING! She made me laugh with her life and love advice! This was a great book that I will be recommending others to read!!
