Review: Wrong Number by Iris Trovao
★★★★ @ESHurricane #IrisTrovao #WrongNumber When is a wrong number so right? In this slow-burn romance, a mistaken text to a wrong number creates a divergent path for two people. As someone who has received a wrong number text and had a bit of fun, this premise appeals to me. New-to-me author Ms. Trovao creates a beautifully messy and complicated romance between two flawed people. I loved it. Cheating, even if it is unspoken and an open secret hurts everyone involved. If

Review: Virtue and Vice by Megan Hart
★★★★ @Megan_Hart #VirtueandVice #OrderofSolace #TBRPile This series first caught my attention 13 years ago and I still think of it fondly. I only read two of the four in this series and that is remiss of me. With my new resolution to whittle away my TBRPile - 100 older ones a year, this popped back up to remind me why I love this series. When it comes to tortured kinky romance, Ms. Hart is the queen. The Order of Solace is an amazing place for women to train on how to prov

Review: Deceitful by C. Reilly
★★★ ½ @CoraReillyBooks @jennw23 #Deceitful New writing direction from Ms. Reilly is spot on. In Deceitful, it is a cross between young X-men and Men in Black. Except, there are no aliens, just covert operations. This is the first book in the series and I'm eager to read more of it. I want to learn more about this special ops group, FEA - Forces with Extraordinary Abilities. This group seems to pull in unreasonably young "variants". Most of these are teenagers who are fe

Review: What Lies Beyond the Veil by Harper L. Woods
★★★ ½ @AdelaideForrestAuthor New to me author Ms. Woods draws me into a fantasy world of fae and magic. I fell in love with Caelum and even if I suspected something about his background, it matters not. I still love him. In this first book, we learn about what humans think of the fae. Specifically, we learned how the fae came about and what horrible things they do to humans. This is all from the human perspective. I immediately have my doubts because it is rare that an

Review: Sexiest Vampire Alive by Kerrelyn Sparks
★★★ @KerrelynSparks #TBRPile #SexiestVampireAlive Returning back to the Love at Stake series, I remember why I put this on my TBR Pile. When it comes to sweet romances, Ms. Sparks is one of the authors who consistently delivers. This is an older book and still stands the test of time. I still love this universe she's created. Many of her vampires are from the old world, this one is not. Gregori is a relatively new vampire. His conversion was done as an act of love and r

Review: Blood Trinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love
★★★ ½ @mysherrilyn @DiannaLove #BloodTrinity #TBRPile Did I miss the first book in this series? The prologue throws the reader straight into a captured scene that doesn't look great for Evalle. Within the first few chapters, I feel the same pit in my stomach for many of Ms. Kenyon's stories. Why is it that her main character is always so abused? Seriously, I am trying to recall one character that doesn't have either a tortured past or a continuous difficult life. If you

Review: Hellforged by Nancy Holzner
★★ #TBRPile On my TBR pile for about a decade, I followed up with book 2 in this series. I read through my original review for book one...book two was even less enchanting for me. I didn't recall I had such hate on Tina in the first book. Let's just say that Hellforged didn't improve my impression of Tina. And my wish from book one did not come true. This book is also not about Tina, but about Vicky. Vicky is kind of a rocky character for me. In book two, Vicky is still fi

Review: Sharpest Sting by Jennifer Estep
★★★ ½ #SharpestSting I didn't think I would go back and read this book since I read the series finale. I did and it helped explain things better. It is a must to read this book before book 19. This book is filled with pain and betrayal. Learning what really happened to Gin's father is brutal. Learning how this all began and where the connections are between the villains and the not-so-good guys is illuminating. For me, this book is a constant beat down of Gin and her frie

This 3.5 star book takes us into a serial killer who tortures women and then buries them alive. How many people are in this special FBI task force? It seems like there are more and more added to this team. I like it and I like how the different agents find their way into this special place that allows them to use all their skills.

Review: Hidden Gypsy Magic by Tena Stetler
★★★★ @TenaStetler #BookGems #HiddenGypsyMagic Magic and witches go hand in hand when it comes to Salem. This world Ms. Stetler builds continues to grow on me. We return to the Salem Wildlife Sanctuary. This one is loosely connected to Chocolate Raspberry Magic. This is the story of Gwen and her beau, Brock. Whilst this story contains elements of romance, it takes a backseat to the plot. Seeing the innerworkings of a wildlife sanctuary is fascinating for me. Speculating a b

★★★★ @AuthorCFeehan #NetGalley #PhantomGame @BerkleyPub Let me first say that when it comes to blending DNA with animal and plants, Ms. Feehan is one of the more creative writers. I really enjoyed this one specifically because of our heroine, Camellia. Can we say Poison Ivy if she was a good guy? I always felt Poison Ivy in Batman was given a bad rap. In this book, I am happy to say that Camellia may have been questionable for some, but she is all in for healing the land and

As the youngest in the family, Paige's self-image is a bit different than how her family and friends see her. Paige is ready to start her family like the rest of her siblings. Sadly, her hopes are dashed as she and her boyfriend are definitely not on the same page. It is devasting to watch Paige's love life become a complete train wreck. What I

★★★★ @heathergraham #CrimsonSummer @edelweiss_squad This new series from Ms. Graham keeps catching me off guard and I love it. This is book two in the Amy Larson and Hunter Forest Series. It can be read as a standalone but probably better read in order written. This story starts out with another brutal murder. The difference is that the killer notified Amy and Hunter during their vacation. This is a well earned vacation after solving the last serial killings. This actio
