Euphoric Wonderland: An Eclectic Collection of Psychedelic Poetry to Stimulate the Senses and Open the MindEuphoric Wonderland: An Eclectic Collection of Psychedelic Poetry to Stimulate the Senses and Open the Mind by Ryan M. Becker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Poetry is not normally my genre. However, I was captured by the cover of book and the ‘blurb.’ This is truly some psychedelic poetry. There is one piece that struck a chord: Waste Replaced Displaced in Space. It felt like a stoned Dr. Suess but it really does make you think, feel and try to open your mind .Stall, Slip and Fall Before You Get To It All, isn’t that a description of life? There are many original poems in here. They are creative, unique and speak to you. Give this book a shot. You may find you like it.

Dragonslayer Dragon Heart (Dragon Heart Book 1) Audiobook by Isobelle Cate – Review by Shelly Kittell

/0 Comments/in /by

This story is amazing and so original. I loved the story line of the slayer falling for his dragon and the drama that ensues. That made for an adventure that had me hooked from the moment I started. The narrator, Oh my! that man does so much to this story. What an amazing voice. His accent just gave a whole new voice to the tale. All together, I highly recommend this to every paranormal romance lover out there.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a wonderfully original retelling of Cinderella. I found the story to be relevant to today’s world. Ashley is a strong and brave young woman. She has a battle ahead and she takes nothing. I found the interactions with the characters, such as the M & M’s, Veronica, Laura, and Harry James were so relatable. The plot twist of solving the poisoning and attempted murders was a great twist. A fun read for any age. I’m looking forward to reading more from this author in this series.

The Colors of Love (Colors Trilogy, #2)The Colors of Love by K.R. Raye
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book 2 of this amazing series. The author has done another outstanding job with her writing. Lance, Imani, and Melody are still trying to deal with the aftereffects of the trauma and the choices they make in their life. I found the story to feel truly realistic and original. You can feel your own heart palpitating at some of the action in the book. At some times, you feel the angst or other feelings that they go through. The plot is well-written, with even a few twists thrown in. I found the characters relatable. I was engrossed in the story right from the start. I cannot wait to start book 3. Well, done!

What a beautiful love story. Kellie and Harrison were torn apart when they were younger but due to circumstances were brought together for a fake wedding. I found the storyline of second chances very endearing because they really needed one. Everything seemed to be a challenge working again them but they worked hard at it. Seeing the family work together was heartwarming. The characters were very touching and well-developed. My favorite part was a reunion between her and her dad. A quick read that will touch your heart. I can’t wait to read more from this author.

This is a romantic adventure. What happens in Oasis certainly stays in Oasis. Lisette is trying to make a name for herself and Luc is her main competition. He has an edge: real magic. Lisette lost her magic when her father was executed for killing the King. The sparks arise between these two as does some new evidence against the Queen that shows she may have been the one to murder the King. I love the passion and suspense in the story. The back and forth. The characters are so well-developed. The plot ran smooth with some twists in it. This is a story that will have you on the edge of your seat wanting to know what happened next. It sucked me in right from the start. I highly recommend it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cam has been through hell up to this point. He has suffered tragedy, loss and endless drama and surprises. Reunited with his first wife, Freya, and their children, Cam embarks on a journey for closure on how his second wife, Lae, died. Talk about Pandora’s box, many secrets of the geodome societies come to light. Everywhere you turn there are secrets. Cam is completely overwhelmed by this. There are so many decisions to be made by him and by the community he lives with. This book has not disappointed me at all. The final book in the antipodes series, the author has woven the characters together nicely. You can easily feel them and what they are feeling. The plot ran fairly smooth. I did get lost a couple of times but that smoothed out as I went along. Definitely a series you have to try.

Ashes of Sin and StardustAshes of Sin and Stardust by Lindsay Murray
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Trigger warning – please check the note by the author before reading. For those over the age of 18.
This is a well-written romance. The steam rises; there is a bit of BDSM and erotic romance. Reuben has been dreaming of Alicia for 24 years. Now that he’s found her, he wants this to work. You can feel the struggle as they work for this. The characters are well-defined. The plot and topics are well researched. Though an uncomfortable read at times, the topics do need to be brought up as they are part of the story. This was a very good story that needed to be told. I do recommend it.

Remember to Forget Me (Too Lost To Love, #1)Remember to Forget Me by Hazel Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As the doors swing shut, the sexiest voice on the planet chases me through the narrowing gap. “Hey! Excuse me. Do I know you?” Addison runs into Wesley at a legal meeting and realizes he doesn’t remember her after a bad beating he received ten years ago. Sad,she is resolved to go on, but Wes feels she is familiar. The two engage in a journey that takes them down a road that has to be traveled. This is a book that will touch you hard in the emotions. I guarantee you will feel it all. The story is well-written and developed in such a way that a few plot twists thrown in felt normal. These two are very relatable. The only thing I would have hoped for is a snippier line to the new roommate, Charlotte, from Wesley. That chick is messed up and rude. It’s up there as one of the best romance books I’ve read for the year.

Scandalously Yours (Titans Of Manhattan #5)Scandalously Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Me too, however, I heard the Chief of Staff is a real dick.” This has to be my favorite line in the book. We can all relate to Ale talking to Kris about what she’s heard about the Chief of Staff at her new job. Little does she know, he’s the hot guy she’s talking too. Oh, this opens the door to so much drama and challenge. Prior to finishing medical school, Ale was a surrogate to one of the Titan couples. This was an experience that affected her tremendously. I really enjoyed this story because it is so relatable. You can practically feel the emotions in the story. The characters are so well-written and developed that you feel they are part of your group. Ale needed a tribe of women friends and if anything, I do wish she could have more of that in the story. That ex-wife of Kris, so well-written, I felt like I should watch over my shoulder. Scary mother/wife, that’s a large plot to deal with. The challenges they deal with would try the patience of a saint. I did miss a little more interaction with some of the Titans. It’s another knockout of the park.

Rivals (Mafia Elite, #7)Rivals by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A truly bittersweet moment has been had. I have had the pleasure of reading this series from the beginning to what is now the end. The story of the Five Families, aka The Chicago Mafia, has now been told in such a manner that you feel like you are leaving close friends. The main characters in ‘Rivals’ are Nico La Rosa and Mia Tucci. Unfortunately, I cannot share a whole lot with you because it just gives away too much. The author grabs you right from the start. Each book basically picks up where the last one left off. In this book, we also get to visit with everyone except Max and Luc (and their wives) as they were in Italy. Everyone else played a pivotal role in helping Nico and Mia take down the New York Tucci and Amata family. There are moments that will live in your mind such as Mia meeting the other wives and she’s told that they will love her, but they will have no qualms at killing her either. My favorite are the quiet moments between her and Nico. They are tender and romantic in a chaotic environment. The plot just stays right on task with a twist thrown in here and there, and it just comes right back. This author is extraordinarily talented and her writing is also. Her female characters are strong and courageous. This series is one that I recommend to all my friends that love romantic suspense and Mafia. Hot, steamy and fantastic! It would get more than 5 stars if I could give them.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“What?” Nate’s forehead wrinkles, “You mean we like Freaky Fridayed?” “I do not know what this means,” Maurice says…”

Nate and Cat are having a mixup of trouble in this, the final installment of this trilogy. Somehow, during a family dinner, Nate and Cat had a heated exchange and set off some events that made for a week of drama, humor and challenges galore. Don’t eat the goodies….those emotions are running free. This book was so entertaining. Cat and her family, Robyn and her family, Jojo, Jake, Nate, Liam, Tobey, and the cast of others make for a story of teen angst and drama that is so relatable. The reference to Freaky Friday was awesome. I’ve been around awhile so I can think back to the original. I also found the story of Evie and Maurice so romantic and heartbreaking. A plot twist for the win. This trilogy has been so entertaining to read plus recipes to boot: Tres Leches Cake; Almond Bark; and many more. A win for all of us.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bratva, hidden secrets, nothing is as it seems…..This is a love story with some awesome suspense. Dominick is the car thief for the Popov Bratva. He’s got many secrets to hide. Leah is a country singer with a background that she doesn’t want known. One night, an attempted car heist brings these two together and the rest is, as they say, history. Oh my, I love the drama. The sparks fly of the two of them. There is chemistry so hot that I’m surprised the car didn’t melt. These two try to avoid each other and instead wind up closer then ever. The characters are so well-written. They are very relatable. I was shocked with a few of the plot twists. I was rooting for them also. I loved the dialogue. The plot ran smooth even with a couple of sub stories. This is a contemporary romance that is a quick read and quite enjoyable. You should hit that one-click and give it a read. You won’t be sorry. Highly recommend.

Fairly Royal (Fair, #4)Fairly Royal by Grace Grahme
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Phillip and Anna, an Earl and his brother’s best friend, is a romance that I truly enjoyed. A romance that makes you smile because he just can’t realize that she is in love with him. He is afraid to put anyone through the mess that comes with loving a royal. He asks Anna to help him with a fake romance. These two commence with a pretend relationship complete with drama. I loved it all. The story had romance, steam, drama and characters that just make the story. I’ve always loved these type of stories because of the rags to riches type of theme. In this case, it was you girl next door romance. How can Phillip make this work when her brother is his best friend? The plot is fantastic. It was very well-written and well-developed. This is a terrific romance that you just get sucked into. You should read this one. You’ll be intrigued and learning the meaning of the language will be fun too.

The Girl Who EscapedThe Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is an outstanding mystery/thriller. I found myself on the edge-of-my-seat holding my breath as I was reading. Angie was just trying to do what was right. It’s crazy what can happen when you ignore your gut. The drama is very intense. I loved every minute of it. The story has twists that just may have you looking over your shoulder. I can remember having a stalker at that age. Though the creeps and chills were there for me, I found the characters well0written. Angie and Brenda are very relatable. The plot was well written and scarily true. It could have been taken from today’s headlines. Those are my favorite stories because you feel the thriller, the emotions; you feel it all. The scene at the beginning had me jumping myself, that’s how good it was. I will be adding this author to my favorites list. Get out there and buy this one. You must read this one.

Elizabeth is my hero. She is a single mom working to recover from a bad divorce. She has a crappy ex and an ex-sister-in-law with a bad attitude. This poor gal has family drama coming out of the corners. You name it, she’s dealing with it. Toss in an ex-boyfriend who’s now the police chief (he happens to be investigating a murder). You’ve got drama, murder, romance, humor. Who needs ‘Real Housewives…’? I’ve got Elizabeth and her issues. I fell in love with this story. So relatable because the struggles are real. She’s just trying to take care of her family and dig a little time for her. She got duped into an “opportunity” to sell lingerie but, oops….her upline was murdered. Now, she’s stuck with this large investment to try to get rid off. I do fell the murder took a back seat while the other issues got more front line but it all ended coming together nicely. I don’t think I’ve laughed quite so much. Minus the murder, I’ve lived most of that life. My favorite part was watching Elizabeth grow and discover what she wanted as a person and going for what was important to her. It can be sad to see the romance not work out but to see her grow was exhilarating. Good book that I will recommend to all.

Ritual Obsession (Blood Obsession Book 1)Ritual Obsession by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Powerful! Intense! Suspenseful! This book will have you on the edge of your seat. This author has written one of the most extraordinary books I’ve read this year. Rose, Brian, Max, Bobbie, McCauley, Marco, Bobbi’s parents, Andrew and a cast of supporting characters make for a some very good drama that you’ll never find on those TV shows. (bum, bum, bum…). I found myself holding my breath as the story built to find the ritual serial killer. The plot is built around Bobbie joining the force and having to live down her Debutante rep; Rose being know as a “witch”; etc. We get to see romances build; families get used to new careers and new romances; old dreams will die. Plot twists will abound and I love the fact that they don’t make a mess out of the plot; they flow just like they are naturally built there. I love all the subplots. This books grabs you and won’t let go. You will want more (I do….). The characters are well-developed and you feel like part of the story. Protagonists abound and those antagonists are going to get what’s coming. I loved this book and the author is now on my favorites list. I highly recommend this. There is steaminess and some triggers in this.

Caged Fire (Vigilant, #1)Caged Fire by L.M. Preston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book packs a punch. It is a definite knockout. EmVee is one brave young woman with some supernatural talents that is out to find out who killed her father and what happened to her family. Favorites from The Void such as Kyson, Rachel, and…eh…Megan are back to help EmVee get answers along with new friends, Demi and Sax. Secrets abound, along with monsters. This author writes a book that has you holding your breath because the action gets more intense the further into the story you go. We learn so much more about The Vigilant as you get into the story. (Is that the group EmVee’s father was part of?) The characters are insanely complex and yet, young adults just wanting to live life. The plot is smooth with twists that fit right in. It comes together like the perfect waterfall. The antagonist just wants to cause trouble and not be found. They do that so very well. EmVee will not give up I like the message the story gives. It’s okay to ask for help. Girls can do anything they put their mind to. It’s also a body positive story. She’s a fighter but also wants to be seen as feminine. Great story. I love the whole series. This is book #1. You should reada this.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a clever murder mystery! Eliza is heading to a family reunion in jolly ole- England, a Darcy/Bennet one. She meets Heath at the airport. Could it be fate that brought them together? I loved watching the chemistry with these two. What an entertaining tale told with a taste of snippets of Jane Austen at the beginning of each chapter. A tale of murder and romance. Eliza can’t resist helping Scotland Yard when drama happens at the reunion. I can’t blame her. Wouldn’t you like to make sure it isn’t you next? Humor, mystery, characters that will entertain you as you try to figure out who did it (No, I own’t tell you who, tsk!) The plot is smooth, twits abound, with characters galore. The older characters will have you laughing out loud as you read. This is a wonderful book. I look forward to more from this author. What a delight to read with your tea and crumpets.

Jessica and Seth are both attracted to each other but fear doing anything because they are work partners. I loved the chemistry between which brought awkward facts on their ride to pick up a sociopath in Denver. Watching this play out was a little painful and a delight. Jessica’s family is a little dysfunctional and they use that against her.She worries about whether or not she is worthy of a relationship. Seth wants to show her she is. He wants to take care of her. Can these two figure this out? Can she let him in? Add the drama of the sociopath escaping and trying to get her. This was a new author to me and I’m now a new fan. The writing is superb. I was on the edge of my seat through this action. She left me feeling like I was in the middle of the drama. Jack is one sick puppy. The characters were very well-written. You could feel the emotions, the personalities and just every little quirk about them. The plot with its twists flowed so smooth. It made for a wonderful romantic suspense. Definitely an author I would recommend.

The characters have also drawn you in because you find yourself trying to figure out who’s good and who’s bad? Amazing series! You really should give it a shot.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

‘Enemies of Doves’ is one of the best debut mystery/suspense that I have read. You can feel the power coming off of it. Told between two timelines, the plot so perfectly intertwines itself that the twists and turns just flow with it. This is an emotional story that will take your breath away. The story of two brothers and the girl they loved as told by the possible grandson of one of the brothers many years later. I was glued right from the start. The story is so well-developed that the author just naturally engages you with the characters. Joel and Clancy grab you from the start. You can’t put the book down because, like Garrison and Molly, you have to know what happened. This is a book so well-written that I hope there will be more from this author. I will be eagerly awaiting more. I am a new fan of hers. If you love suspense and mystery, you should read this one.

Kate finds second-chance love with her high-school sweetheart, Chase. This book is so romantic. I am a fan of this author as romance stories have an amazing human emotion to them. You can truly feel the love, the pain, everything the couples go through as they are working through the relationship. Truly, the struggle is real. This story is so relatable. Even more so due to Chase raising his nephew. Decisions must be made, secrets must be brought out. Family members are just helping them. This is a well-written and developed story that will touch your heart and leave you feeling touched when you are done. Another winner for the romance category for 2022. Love!

Ella is trying to recover from her sister’s passing. She has her niece, Tessa, and now a letter from Taylor Law to come in for an appt. She now has to deal with paternity and custody issues from an unknown father and his parents. Jake Taylor has his hands full trying to fix the ruins that Rory left and handle the case against Drew brought by Chrissy (Ella’s deceased sister). This is a terrific story.There is lots of family drama. We have Ella, Tessa and Jake; Bronwyn and Peter; and Drew and Rory. The drama is intense and deep. It is a bit mysterious because everyone is holding out secrets. The author has written some characters that truly are relatable. I bet people will find they remind them of people they have met or know. Ella and Jake are wonderful because they put Tessa first. I love family friendly plots. I also lot plots that give characters what they deserve. A few good plot twists take care of that. The chemistry sparks about ¼ of the way in. It flickers from the beginning and you can watch it grow. These two are like a growing fire in a fireplace, warm and cozy. I love this contemporary romance and wish I could give it more than a 5 star review. It’s that good. You should read this.

The Letter CarrierThe Letter Carrier by Laurie L.C. Lewis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a nonfiction biography that will truly give you a look into the WWII from when the Germans invaded France. Michelle tells us about the struggles she and her family faced in trying to just stay safe and alive. There were many struggles: not knowing if family members were alive; not knowing if they were going to have enough of anything to survive; etc. This is an emotional book because it is true. You will feel the feelings. They are trying to escape and the Germans are shooting at the road they are on while her mom is trying to deliver a friend’s baby. The one constant in this story si that Michelle never loses her faith in God. She knows that He will take care of them and provide. She was a strong child, who turned into a strong young woman and woman. She persevered a lot. She fought with the resistance. She was an amazing woman. I especially loved the letter from her daughter telling how her life turned out. I can’t describe how much this book touched me. I had great-grandparents that escaped the concentration camps so I have always read personal stories from that time in history. I want to thank the author and Michelle for sharing that story. I truly with I could give more than 5 stars. This is the best nonfiction book of 2022 that I have read this year.

This book is an adventure. The messengers, the watchers, a heist. The drama, the intensity make for a great book. The characters are out of this world (no pun intended). I think the characters are so well-written. The toughness and grit they have make the actions believable. The plot is non-stop action. There are twists and subplots, yet they are intertwined and all come together to ride out fairly smooth. This book is entertaining and one I fell in love with. The action will get you right from the start. Highly recommend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh my goodness, heartwarmer and tearjerker all in one. I love this story. Kat feels a sense of déjà vu, even in the guy she meets (TJ). She is pregnant and a surprise delivery brings TJ into her life. This story will bring out all the emotions as they work through their baggage. They are drawn to each other but don’t know why. Could it be reincarnation? The sense of déjà vu floats through the whole book. The characters are wonderful. TJ’s family is so accepting and feel just like a wonderful family next door. The sisters are characters. Ginny, Penny and Lydia kept me entertained. The plot was so beautiful and smooth, not a chunky mess. A beautiful romance. A second-chance, contemporary romance that everyone should read. I would give it more than 5 star review if I could.

Sword of Darkness (Vigilant, #3.5)Sword of Darkness by L.M. Preston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am in love with this series. Reece has gotten himself in a little bit of a tight spot entering a not-so-normal car race. You just might fight for your life in this one. a beatiful girl shows up and starts flirting with him, bringing on the ire of two bullies. Bring on the action and drama of the story. Hook and Ora are strongly advising him to stay away from this girl. Megan says he should too (but she’s not all she says she is). Secrets abound in this town. Just ask Jeb about them. Reece is good with metalwork and Jeb has him make a sword. It turns out to be needed because some heavy action is coming down the pipeline at the end. I love the drama, the plot twists and characters. I feel the author does a fantastic job of making you think you might know what is going on (but not really. Remember those secrets..). One of the best fantasy/paranormal series for young adults that I’ve read recently. I’m a fan now.
