IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3) Anthology – Review by Angela Hayes

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3)IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

Irresistible Valentine is the third instalment in the Irresistible Romance Anthology series. It is a fantastic collection of stories from nine very talented, best-selling, and award-winning authors. The stories were so romantic and very enjoyable- each one individual to its author- but all revolve around the same theme- which is “Irresistible Valentine”- celebrating everything we love about romance. The stories range from delightful and sweet, to spicy and suspenseful.
With plenty to capture and hold your attention, the stories are:

Two Hearts’ Reconnaissance By: Tamara Ferguson
Meet Eve Loughlin and Harry Giordano who have both overcome adversity. These two have a connection that cemented from the moment they met. But life takes them in different directions, tearing them apart. Will love find a way to bring them back together again? Tamara Ferguson delivers yet another wonderful story- packing a lot into a small package and delivering a romantic and captivating read.

Cupid’s Quest (Paradise Place) By: Natalie Ann
Two damaged souls finding each other. She’s walked away from her past and built a life for herself, becoming a successful realtor. His past experience brought him so much heartache, grief, fear, and loneliness- which inevitably led him to becoming a police investigator. What happens when she becomes his realtor? This is well worth the read to find out! Will Cupid find a way to their hearts? Such a great read and definitely one of my favourites of this collection.

A Little Change of Plans (The Saints of San Diego) By: Suzanne Jenkins
I love the Saint’s, so getting to read another story in the series is always a winner in my eyes. This follows second youngest brother, Jake Saint- and I loved following along for the ride. He and Geri were so great together- and the clever way Ms. Jenkins wove her story certainly had me hook, line and sinker! Sublime!

All Night Long (Kiss the Bride Book 2) By: Cynthia Cooke
A wonderful ‘fake fiancé’ romance, with lots of snow, a picturesque ski village, a loveable Saint Bernard, a snowy rescue, and plenty of fun- making this a memorable read. Beau hatches a plan to secure his future- he just needs a ‘fiancée’ to seal the deal- and he think Phoebe is just the right girl to pull it off. A funny, light-hearted, and engaging story. So much fun to read.

Never Lovers (The Rocklyns) By: Alicia Street
A bit of a “Runaway Bride” vibe to this story- with a bit of a twist. Emotive and very romantic- true love always finds a way! A great little read!

The Player (Men of Warhawks Book 2) By: Jacquie Biggar
This is about finding love unexpectedly. When a crazy, stalker ex gets Roy sidelined from his beloved NHL- the only way to get back in the game is to allow sexy PA, Patience Kennedy, to help. With her PR know-how she’ll have him back in the game in no time. Right? I really loved this story- and would have loved an even longer version of it, so I could really immerse myself in the story. I can always count on Ms. Biggar to deliver the goods!

Unexpected Packages (The Unexpected Series Book 1) By: Stacy Eaton
After a parcel mix up brings Alex to Lexi’s doorstep- things are about to get interesting! This one snuck under my skin much more than I had anticipated. I loved how well this was written, and the wonderful ‘feel-good’ vibe that I got from the story. The characters were very endearing- and I would love to read more of their story

First Class Flirtation By: Susan Jean Ricci
Melissa had been looking forward to having some extra room on her first class flight. But her plans go awry when she’s forced to share her seats with a complete stranger, a grouchy one at that. But it doesn’t take long for chemistry to bubble, and sparks fly. But things are about to get quite complicated- what does the future hold for these two? Will love find a way?

Serendipity Falls By: Patrice Wilton
This is the first book in a new romantic comedy series- and if this story is anything to go by, the series is set to be great! What happens when a pastry chef and an Olympic Skier connect in the romantic, small town of Serendipity? You really should read this enjoyable story and find out for yourself! It’s well worth your time!

Thank you to all the contributing authors!

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3) Anthology – Review by Karyn Taylor

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3)IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible Valentine is a great anthology of 8 romantic stories from 9 different authors. I am not going to review all 8 stories but have chosen 2 to focus on. My review will be of Two Hearts Reconnaissance by Tamara Ferguson and The Player by Jacquie Biggar. Both are authors that I have read before and these were the 2 stories that I was most looking forward to reading.
Two Hearts Reconnaissance is set in Dragonfly Pointe, the location of many other novels by Tamara Ferguson and brings back some characters from other stories.
This was a heartbreaking story which explores child abuse and child trafficking. I was totally gripped to the story of Harry Giordano and Eve Loughlin both of whom have had terrible childhoods in various foster homes. Eve has now reconciled with her birth mother and Harry (and his foster sister Amy) have been taken in by Gabe and Lucy Giordano.
This story takes you from their first meeting at age 13 to them meeting again as adults and a lot in between. Although not a full length novel, Tamara Ferguson packs so much into this story.
The Player by Jacquie Biggar is set in the ice hockey world. Star player Roy is being hounded by a crazy ex-girlfriend who is spreading lies about him and it’s affecting his career. Enter PR woman Patience who is hired to improve his public persona.
This is a great story which will have you laughing at the antics of Roy and Patience. Roy does everything he can to annoy and rile Patience and she just falls into his trap everytime. Can she help fix his career or will the crazy ex get her way?

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE is a sweet and fun romance anthology from so many wonderful authors you really can’t go wrong! I have loved reading several of these ladies for quite some time but and delighted that I have also had the chance to discover a few new ones to love. I mainly scooped this up for the Two Hearts inclusion from Tamara Ferguson so that will be my in depth review below but the others were just as fabulous to read and I look forward to finishing out the last few novels included soon! Anthologies always make the season going on around me that much more special and often make great gifts. I found myself enamored enough to gift a few of these this love season of Valentines. Hope you find some love as you read as well!

Two Hearts Reconnaissance by Tamara Ferguson is a sweet additon to her Two Hearts series that I have long loved now. This one brings us back to Crystal Rock and tells the story of Eve and Harry. Life and time has seperated these you loves but now the present brings them home and gives them a much needed second chance at love. Will they find the happily ever after they so desire?

The rest of the novels are wonderful and included as:

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible Valentine anthology is a collection of works by some fantastic authors. I have read all of these authors previously and could not wait to get my hands on these stories.
I really enjoyed how these books were all different from each other. They had the same feel and yet there was never a risk of them all “becoming one” as I often find is the issue with anthologies. Each authors voice was distinctive and easy to hear.
The stories were all varied but well developed. There isn’t one that I didn’t like.
This is a great anthology and one that I would recommend.

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3) is an anthology of valentine romance stories by nine top authors Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, Suzanne Jenkins, Cynthia Cooke, Alicia Street, Jacquie Biggar, Stacy Eaton, Susan Jean Ricci and Patrice Wilton. Each story is about unsuspecting couples that meet and fall in love some in the most unlikeliest circumstances.

Two Hearts’ Reconnaissance: Tamara Ferguson, is a wonderful story where teenagers Eve and Harry meet at Crystal Rock and grow up together but when they follow their hearts passions, they end up losing each other. Will the magic continue in the place they met? Tamara never lets me down with her stories and this one is just as good as all the others.

Cupid’s Quest: Natalie Ann, is the tale of two damaged souls from their pasts that come together through a common goal. Ruby has walls around her heart and doesn’t let anyone in easily. Josh is looking for a home he can make for his family, now he just has to convince her that they can be together. This is a captivating story and one of my favourites in this anthology.

A Little Change of Plans: Suzanne Jenkins, is a great story where Geri is new to the fire station and is driven for a career and will not let anyone stand in her way. All it took is one look and Jake was in love, now he needs to prove it to her.

All Night Long: Cynthia Cooke, is fun and had me laughing as I read about these wonderful characters. Phoebe wants to make her own way as a wedding planner and Beau just wants to keep the bar and hotel in the valley and make it his own. If only he could convince her to stay. A great story to get lost in.

Never Lovers: Alicia Street, is an emotional tale of two people torn apart by a tragedy. Now after many years apart they are forced to share accomodation when wanting to get away from their day to day life. Will true love find its way back to them? A good read.

Patience who is a PR person and is hired to make Roy look good after a crazy ex tries to get him back but destroying his game in the process. What neither of them expect is the lengths she will go to and what they find with each other. I really enjoyed this story and would have loved more.

Unexpected Packages: Stacy Eaton, Lexi is mortified when a package is delivered to the wrong address and is then brought to her. What was once total annoyance turns into something more than they ever thought possible. All the feel goods came out with this one. I would actually like to see more of this couple.

First Class Flirtation: Susan Jean Ricci, Melissa is looking forward to the extra room she booked on her flight but an altercation changes things and now she is stuck with a grumpy stranger. However these two unlikely people soon learn they cannot live without each other but they may not get their happy ever after when tragedy strikes.

Serendipity Falls: Patrice Wilton, There is something in the water at this unsuspecting town in the snow, Devon doesn’t believe it and he loves his life being a one and done kind of guy but when Tara comes to town he finds she has something he can’t seem to stay away from. Cupid does love love now if only he could find it too. This is a nice and easy enjoyable read.

I loved reading the story Two Hearts’ Reconnaissance by Tamara Ferguson. It one of my favorite stories in this anthology. I loved reading about the characters of Eve Loughlin and Harry Giordano.

What does the future hold for Eve and Harry? Will they find their way back to each other? Is their love for each other still strong? Read this story to find out. This story is emotion and mine were going up and down the entire time I was reading it. The book does deal with a serious subject matter however it also has Eve and Harry, with help from others, overcomes their past. I grew to care about what happened to Eve and Harry and wanted them to find happiness.

The Player
By Jacquie Biggar
5 out of 5 stars

I enjoyed reading the story The Player by Jacquie Biggar. It is a story that had me laughing at times and then there are moments where you want to say “Aww.” I loved the two main characters. From the back and forth bantering to the feelings of romance that was totally unexpected. There are moments that you wonder what is going to happen next. I grew to care about what happened to the characters and wanted them to be happy. The story flowed smoothly and I found myself not wanting it to end. The author does an amazing job of making a story that is both romantic and entertaining. It is a story that you don’t want to miss out on reading.

Irresistible At Christmas was an excellent collection of romantic Christmas stories and I could not put it down. I loved how well the authors did with the development and characters of each story. Hunky men and steamy scenes make this a great collection to read by the fire with a cup of coffee. I found myself lost in these stories. Each one was easy to read. I also loved how organized it was. I highly recommend this collection.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible at Christmas (Irresistible Romance book #2) is a beautiful anthology filled with stories by some of my favourite writers! I love anthologies as they give me an opportunity to discover new writers while delving deeper into the worlds by the writers I already love and admire.
My number one in this anthology is Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson! I have read every single story she has written and whenever I see that she has released something new, I jump on them and I absolutely loved her new addition to her wounded warrior series. It was a pure pleasure to be back in Crystal Rock and Dragon Pointe for a magical Christmas and if you have not read any of Tamara’s books before then this is a beautiful introduction into her world!
Another one of my favourite writers is Stephanie Queen and it was a great fun to read about Scarlet who decided to become the next Miss Christmas while falling in love with a stranger who for some reason is stubborn and thinks that Scarlet is not the one for him even though deep down he knows better!
Natalie Ann is another writer who I found in another collection and I loved her short story Gifts of Love. If you like stories about self-made millionaires and money not making one happy … add to it a woman who has been hurt too many times before and you have a story that will bring you into Natalie’s world.
I had also read Alicia Street’s books before so I knew that there might be something good in store for me and she did not disappoint! She gave us a well written piece of from enemies to lovers! Add to it a small town and you can close your eyes and just picture it!
If you feel that you want to celebrate the season with some season appropriate reading then this collection hits the spot!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible at Christmas is an anthology of Christmas stories that are all perfect season heart warmers. I really enjoyed the fact that for once I knew the majority of the authors in this anthology so, although it meant I was introduced to less new ones I knew that I was going to enjoy it all before I started.
Each of these books had completely different things about them that I loved. And yet each of them had an appeal that made you want to read them. The authors all managed to get their own personalities across and yet the books all went very well together.
I don’t think I could honestly pick which of these books was my favourite as I enjoyed them all so much. If you haven’t started your seasonal reading yet then I would say this anthology is the perfect way in which to do so.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS (Irresistible Romance Book 2) an Anthology is full of some of the great writers I have read before but I have also found myself some newbies as I was so impressed with their stories. Each story is different but each one evolves around Christmas. Some are sweet, some are fun and some are funny and some pull at your emotions and make you cry but they all involve romance in various degrees. This is a wonderful collaboration of works coming together to give us a most pleasurable read.

Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson is just great. I love her wounded warrior series and spin offs etc. Great read. A story of waiting for the right time for love to reconnect with the love of your life and settle in to the love and life you have wanted since a first kiss in a magical place.
Gifts Of Love by Natalie Ann is a lovely story of a man who has everything but someone by his side. Can he show her that he is more than his money? Will she get over her past hurt to let him in?

Charlie Saint by Suzanne Jenkins is a story about a man who almost loses his life and the woman who chooses to stick around but she needs to let go of a painful past in order to truly open her heart. Beautiful story.

Home For Christmas by Cynthia Cooke is a lovely but painful read where Melanie returns to Pineville to renovate her old home and face old memories. If only the contractor was not the one person she has believed responsible for turning her world upside down.

Keep Me Warm by Alicia Street tells the heart-warming story of a small-town girl who suddenly finds herself in love with the enemies. Can they really be in love? Will they truly turn it around to become the one/

Miss Christmas by Stephanie Queen is a fun story of Scarlet who scraps by on the best days and decides she wants to become the next Miss Christmas pageant. When a stranger walks into her life she can’t believe her luck but is she willing to give him all her heart. He decides that she is not the one for him, no matter what his heart says. Will he let go and realise just how good they can be together?

Christmas Con by Rachelle Ayala, tells the sad story of two people who have just met but become a lie to keep a grandfather happy for what will be his last Christmas. Bring the tissues.

Courage To Celebrate by Taylor Lee this is also a sad tale but also one of something precious out of so much torment. Luke and Ava are dealing with the loss of several people in their community and now their hope and dreams has decided to come about a little earlier than they thought.

Christmas Wish by Patrice Wilton is a wonderful story of a man who loves them and leaves them and apparently has foot and mouth disease when he is in the same place as Meghan the new woman in town. Meghan has just moved towns to be closer to the special school her young son needs but when faced with the man upstairs she begins to wonder if she needs some her time and whether or not it could be more. But she can’t be a one night stand and is he willing to have more?
This one made me laugh as well.

I love reading anthologies because you get a number of books in one shot and who doesn’t love stories about love, hot men and adorable women and Christmas!!

Each story is unique and quite individual to their author- but all manage to complement one another as well. There are a variety of stories- all engrossing from beginning to end. From wounded warrior, sweet romance, enemies to lovers, 2nd chances, suspense, danger, and much more. Where we meet a variety of leading characters, who bring their stories to life.

One of my favorite things about the holidays is that usually this is the time we see a lot of new anthologies. I love to devour them myself but also love gifting them because it allows me the chance to share my favorite authors with my friends and family in an affordable way. Irresistible at Christmas is one that I knew I would need to get my hands on as soon as I could and I am so glad we have this collection of holiday themed stories that come from some of my personal favs and some the chance to meet some new ones!

I am a fan of Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, and Stephanie Queen so those were my first go to’s to read and they were absolutely wonderful! I loved Tamara’s Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift. It is a small novella that fits in with her Two Heart’s series that I have followed from the get go. This was a bit of an extra treat to visit the scenes and watch the couple dance a romance across my kindle screen. I can’t wait to see what else will come in the remaining books I have and look forward to passing this on this season.

Irresistible At Christmas (Irresistible Romance Book 2) by Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, Suzanne Jenkins, Cynthia Cooke, Alicia Street, Alyssa Bailey, Stephanie Queen, Patrice Wilton – Review by Maura Harper

IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS (Irresistible Romance Book 2)IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a brilliant anthology of Christmas stories. These are all full length novels and while I’ve previously read two of the authors, the others were all new to me. While each book is a stand-alone, it is easy to see that some are part of a series. I was never at a loss for who is who or what came from where.

TWO HEARTS’ CHRISTMAS GIFT was written by Tamara Ferguson and is based on her Crystal Rock / Dragonfly Pointe Inn series. “Dragonfly Pointe was supposed to be magical; especially at Christmas.” The story is the perfect blend of holiday romance and redemption and, of course, magic.

That is just one example of the brilliant storytelling in this glorious anthology. I was feeling a little bah humbug and then read these stories over the last few days and my spirits were lifted.

I absolutely recommend this book.

This anthology was the perfect Christmas read!!! The best part about this entire anthology and all anthologies, is that you get to read authors that you normally wouldn’t read. There was plenty of love and emotions to tug at your heart strings.
Tamara Ferguson’s Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift, was one of my absolute favorites. I love her way of writing and her storylines. This is definitely a must read!!!!

This must read anthology is an absolute must add to all romance lovers – especially those that love the Christmas holiday. I am always on the lookout for the latest for Ferguson and knew I had to have this collection. Was thrilled to find stories from Street and Queen included. Each story was poignant and powerful and flirty and festive. I thoroughly enjoyed each tale and thought the collection was well thought out and compiled. From start to finish, it was an easy and very enjoyable read. Very much put me in the holiday mood.

5 out of 5 stars

If you love the Christmas season and romance this is the anthology for you. These stories will have your emotions going up and down the entire time, you are reading them. Mine sure did. There are sad moments and also heartwarming moments in these books. I love anthologies as they give me a chance to be introduced to new authors. This group of stories has a few authors I have read before and others it was my first time reading their work. All of these stories have a romantic feel to them, and I couldn’t help but care for the characters and I found myself wishing that they find happiness. I have to say that I really enjoyed Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson. Her stories always have me hooked from beginning to end. I also love that the characters that she writes about are wounded warriors and that attention is brought to then. Don’t miss out on a set of stories that will keep you glued to the pages or your Kindle. I highly recommend this anthology.

This box set was a great read. All of the stories were quite enjoyable. One of my favorites were Two Hearts Unlikely Heroes by Tamara Ferguson which was an all around great story to read. The characters were very likable. What were the odds of Samantha Coldwell and Ben Nash crossing paths again. The chemistry between them was off the charts. Once it is know that Sam Coldwell is a wanted woman, how will Nash react? Will he care? Will he want to save her? Great read! Looking forward to more from many of the authors in this set especially Tamara Ferguson.

So many new to me authors in this collection! Of course the big one that drew me to this was Tamara Ferguson, I’ve read many of her books and didn’t want to miss out on the other great stories in this.

All books in this anthology have a common theme, heroes. What makes a hero, a hero? Read any of these stories and you’ll find out that not all heroes wear capes or camo and could be just an average person. I really loved these but the one that made me pick this up will be focused on here.

Two Hearts Unlikely Heroes by Tamara Ferguson
Samantha and Ben met overseas but it was a stressful moment that left both of them changed. When Ben is sent to a training facility with an odd task, he doesn’t expect to see Samantha there. These two were great and with the twists and turns this story took, it was more about them and what was happening, than a typical romance story where we’re seeing them set the sheets on fire every couple pages. I highly recommend this story.

And I will be reading all of these stories in the coming weeks when my tbr list allows it!

Irresistible Heroes – Heroes of Your Heart by Various Authors is an amazing collection of magnificent stories. This collection features so many wonderful characters and I loved the romance. Having read Tamara Ferguson before, her story really stuck out to me. Her character Sam was my favorite. She was very strong and brave despite her amputation. Ben seemed perfect for her.

I really enjoyed this collection and felt the storyline of each book was easy to follow and flowed easily from page one all the way to the end. Being an Anthology full of various romances, I feel that it could be enjoyed a wide audience.

Irresistible Heroes is a collection of stories that will steal your heart! Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, Suzanne Jenkins, Cynthia Cooke, Alicia Street, Alyssa Bailey, Stephanie Queen and Patrice Wilton came together to give us a present that makes the current hot summer nights scorching!
I have read everything Tamara Ferguson has ever written and almost all that Stephanie Queen has written so there was no doubt in my head whether to pick this collection up or not AND of course, neither of them let me down!
Tamara Ferguson’s Two Hearts Unlikely Heroes took me back to Crystal Rock, Wisconsin, with Captain Samantha Coldwell and Captain Ben Nash. It brings the terrorists to the wounded warriors’ center and I loved meeting up with familiar faces! I promise you that you will enjoy this unlikely heroes story!
Stephanie Queen’s Never Gone By is the opening to another of her fine series called The Zero to Hero and I cannot wait to see what comes next! There are so many heroes she could have chosen among and I am very pleased that she decided to open with Joe and let’s not forget about our Hollywood costume designer turned starlet Mae!
I used the opportunity to discover new writers and I can say that She’s Having a Baby by Suzanne Jenkins will leave you grabbing your tissues when she packs into the opening of her new series taking place in San Diego family, duty, action, love, loss, heartache and new beginnings! It was not only our leading couple but a whole family of heroes aka supporting cast!
This collection has something for everyone so I warmly recommend you to pick up and spend a cool weekend inside or a breezy day outside with it!

Irresistible Heroes – Heroes of Your Heart by Various Authors – Review by Angela Hayes

IRRESISTIBLE HEROESIRRESISTIBLE HEROES by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Irresistible Heroes is a superb Anthology of stories from some very talented, best-selling and award-winning authors. The stories are all so great- all quite individual to the author, but all are based on the same theme- which is “Irresistible Heroes”. We get to meet all kinds of heroes, and heroines- from cops, to fire fighters, Military personnel, Veterans, and Doctors- there’s a hero here that is bound to capture your attention, and a piece of your heart in the process.
This Anthology is made up of eight wonderful stories that are all really well written, interesting, engaging, and entirely enjoyable. The stories are:

 

Two Heart Unlikely Heroes By: Tamara Ferguson

This was definitely one of my favourites of the collection. I love Ms. Ferguson’s books and have read pretty much everything she has written. This is the ninth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance Series- but you don’t need to have read the rest of the series to enjoy this story- as it reads wonderfully well as a standalone. But having said that, you, like me will probably develop a bit of an addiction to her stories and get the desire to explore the rest of her books. Something I have discovered now I have read a lot of her books is the way Ms. Ferguson has cleverly built a bigger picture, a cast of believable and endearing characters, and a supportive community in which to base her stories (for the most part). Everything comes to life, and through each book you begin to see more interconnected details, characters, and situations.
This book is one of my favourites of her, bringing suspense, terrorists, danger and intrigue to Crystal Rock- as we follow Captain Samantha Caldwell and AFOSI Agent Captain Ben Nash on a bit of an adventure as the danger mounts and they try to piece everything together.
As always, Ms. Ferguson doesn’t disappoint!

 

Simply Love By: Natalie Ann

This is the third book in the Love Collection series by Natalie Ann. It is such a sweet, and emotive story that had me rooting for the characters right from the get go. Gemma and Blake have both endured quite a lot of emotional pain in their lives. So, will they finally find the new beginning and second chance they have both searching for? This book is really worth the read to find out!

 

She’s Having a Baby By: Suzanne Jenkins

Oh Ms. Jenkins you’ve done it again! Another great read- but I highly recommend having a box of tissues on hand, as this story will give your emotions a bit of a battering. This is the first book in Ms. Jenkins new series, The Saints of San Diego.
With friendship, family, duty, action, drama, love, loss, heartache, pain, joy, and new beginnings- this story may be short, but it packs quite a punch. We meet our main characters, but also a whole cast of wonderful secondary characters- a family of heroes who completely won me over. What a memorable way to start off a new series- and if this is any example, the rest of the series is set to be just as great! I can’t wait!

 

Johnny’s Girl By: Cynthia Cooke

This is the second book in the Deadly Secrets series by Cynthia Cooke. Full of intrigue, mystery, danger, suspense, action, drama, and more- this romantic suspense had me hooked right from the get-go.
This is my first read by Ms. Cooke and I really didn’t know what to expect going in, but now I am happy to say that I will definitely be exploring more of Ms. Cooke’s work in the future. This is one of the main reasons I love reading anthologies, because it’s a chance to discover new authors to add to your TBR, and therefore more books to explore!!! WIN-WIN!!
Well done!

 

Fire Me Up By: Alicia Street

We meet a hunky firefighter looking for a fresh start and a shy schoolteacher who shakes things up and brings a bit of a spark to his life. This was such a quick and easy read- a sweet story with a witty, captivating (second chance) romance…. which also has an emotional element to it too. Well worth the read!

 

Seal of Refuge By: Alyssa Bailey

Who doesn’t love a sexy Navy SEAL- so add a unlucky in love school teacher, a few surprises, a little bit of drama, and a wonderful romance- and this story really takes off. I didn’t expect to like this story as much as I did- they characters really won me over. A great story to start off Ms. Bailey’s Guardian’s of Refuge series. I for one, can’t wait for the next instalment!

 

Never Gone By: Stephanie Queen

This is the first book in the Zero to Hero Series by Stephanie Queen. Another 5 Star read in this exciting collection. I love Ms. Queen’s books and was really excited to see it was the start to a new series. Zero Go Team is made up of so many heroes, I can’t wait to follow all the character’s stories as they release.
As expected from Ms. Queen, this story is really well written, sexy, spicy, intriguing, and original. The characters pulled me into the story, and I became completely invested in them and their story- devouring every word! I loved meeting Joe and Mae- and I can’t wait for more.

 

Handle With Care By: Patrice Wilton

Handle With Care is the second book in the Wounded Warrior Series by Patrice Wilson. Shane Dawson was a medic serving in Iraq when he is captured and tortured. He may be home from the war, but he left a piece of himself behind, trading it for a whole lot of pain and some difficult personal demons.
Lauren Reynolds is a skilled ER doctor- a single mother with a young son who has ADHD. Things haven’t been easy since her husband died, but she and her son Josh make a pretty good team.
Meeting Shane sets them both on a path they never expected. Taking a chance on love doesn’t come easy, or without some risk. What happens you ask? Well you really should read all the emotional details for yourself…. it’s definitely worth your time.
A story of trauma, pain, addiction, struggles, emotion, friendship, trust, romance, spirit, redemption, and love.

 

As you can see, we meet a variety of charming heroes who will all inspire, captivate, and entertain you. They will entice you into the book and keep you there, avidly turning the pages to follow each as their story unfolds.
So, if you are looking for a book that is full of heroes, romance, and stories that you can connect with- then this is definitely the anthology for you…… And hello, eight books for the price of one…. WINNING!!!!

Thank you to all the contributing authors!
