★★★★ #StoleninDeath #Netgalley #JDRobb #outnow A person can be totally different for two different people. This is certainly the case for Nathan's father. No one knew until after Nathan inherited everything things were not exactly right in the family. This latest edition in the In Death series takes a different look at families and secrets. Sometimes a beloved grandfather may not be what others see. This is an intriguing ride to determine who and why Nathan was killed. D

Review: Hidden Nature by Nora Roberts
★★★★ #NoraRoberts #HiddenNature #NetGalley They say that one moment in time can change the trajectory of your life forever. Sometimes it is a decision we make without thought. Sometimes it is being at the wrong place at the wrong time. For Sloan, this is the case. Recovering from an unfortunate incident, she is trying to put her life back together. Where better place to do so, than with parents in your hometown? This could be a big city girl returning too a small hometow

Review: The Essential Patricia A. McKillip by Patricia A. McKillip
★★★★ ½ #TheEssentialPatriciaMcKillip #Netgalley #fantasy #Mustread One of the early authors who shaped how I view and read fantasy is the talented Patricia McKillip. I loved her fantasy stories and when I saw this available, I had to pick it up and read it. It is definitely a beautifully and lovingly put together collection of some of her best works. Some of them were new to me. Some of them I had seen before. What moved me was the foreword as well as the afterword. The

Review: Blood and Magic by Lauren Dane
★★★★ #LaurenDane #BloodandMagic #Netgalley Diving back into the Goddess with a Blade series is always a refreshing read. This urban fantasy gets better and better. Returning back to Rowan and her collection of super powered friends and allies, she continues to take on the Big Bad guys who come into her town. For those who have not read the previous books in this series, it is recommended to start at the beginning to get caught up. Rowan's life is now a constant battle with

Review: Alpha's Mate by Renee Rose
★★★ ½ #AlphasMate #IchoosetheBear #ReneeRose #LeeSavino #Outnow I choose the bear. Matthias is a large bear shifter who has been trying his best not scare away his fated mate, Maisy. He has done such a great job that Maisy thinks Matthias cannot stand her. I enjoyed this sweet read and dived into this second book with zero issues catching up. What I enjoy about Renee Rose books is that the characters are realistic. Yes, even if they are a shifter. None of them are perfec

Review: A Touch of Treachery by Jennifer Estep
★★★★ #ATouchofTreachery #JenniferEstep Sci-fi Action flick fans will thrill in the newest addition to the Section 47 series. We learn more about Desmond and Charlotte's history as key players from the past show up. We also are treated to Darling Daddy, Desmond's powerful father. No surprise that his father is arrogant and difficult. Charlotte has her hands full as she goes on a mission and it explodes. Charlotte is a favourite of mine because she is the underdog. She is c

Review: Queen of Dreams by Kit Rocha
★★★★ #QueenofDreams #KitRocha #Fantasy #Netgalley Fantastic follow up to book one, Queen of Dreams delivers punch after punch to Sachi and Zanya. This tale is filled with betrayal, subterfuge and power hungry madness. What I liked about this story is that it may come across as black and white with evil villains but no one is purely good nor purely evil. There are subplots within subplots of this tale. What happens when a golden child is reviled? What happens when up is do

Review: Bonded in Death by J.D. Robb
★★★★ #BondedinDeath #JDRobb How does this series after 60 books still stay fresh and intriguing? This book starts out in the oft mentioned Urban Wars. Is Author J.D. Robb predicting what will happen in the next decade? Because there seems to be quite the civil unrest occurring across the globe. Learning more about the whys and the whose involved in the Urban Wars seems to be foreshadowing a dark time for the next couple of decades, just in time for my retirement. Sigh. Fa

Review: I'll Be Waiting by Kelley Armstrong
★★★★ #Illbewaiting #Spooky #NetGalley #KelleyArmstrong When it comes to spinning a riveting tale, Kelley Armstrong consistently delivers. As far as I'm concerned, she can write any genre and it would be so good. I love her writing style and the stories she weaves. In this standalone spooky one, I'll Be Waiting pulls me straight in and is a page turner. The story starts out immediately tugging on my heart strings. Nicola overcame crippling physical obstacles and could have

Review: One Dark Kiss by Rebecca Zanetti
★★★★ #OneDarkKiss #RebeccaZanetti #NetGalley Rebecca Zanetti is an automatic read for me. Forget even reading the blurb. Even going in cold, I know I am going to enjoy the book and boy did I. This is the second book in the series and I recommend reading the first book to enjoy this second one better. This is apparently advertised as a dark and twisted fairy tale retold of Snow White. Honestly, unless I was told, I probably wouldn't have picked that up. This story easily
