★★★★ #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

★★★★ #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

★★★★ 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

★★★★★ #ItTakesaPsychic #JayneAnnKrentz #Dustbunnies #NetGalley As long as the world of Harmony keeps on going, I will be an avid reader and fan. This long running series comes in spurts over the years. I am glad Jayne Ann Krentz is in her "Harmony" years. The humour in these keeps it balanced with the dark somberness of the male characters. One could say that all of these characters are pretty much the same as her other books. Brooding male and strong female lead finding

★★★★ #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

★★★ ½ #KateeRobert #spicyromance Catching up on earlier Katee Robert romance is an interesting exercise. There is definite changes I can see from her earlier works repackaged into a duo set. This contains Make Me Want and Make Me Crave. Both focus on a work place dynamic. Sometimes it is sublime to mix business with pleasure. In Make Me Want, what better than to have the best friend of your ex help you gain confidence in the bedroom? What it has to do with her job? Tha

★★★ 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

★★★ ½ #Careless #CarrieAnnRyn #NewSeries #AshfordCreek What is this? A teaser? A taster? A new series from Carrie Ann Ryan? I definitely want to get in from the start. This short little prequel starts off with a sweet milestone birthday bash that takes off. Felicity is now legal to drink and ready for all sorts of action. What is they say about forbidden fruit? All the tastier and more delicious. For Felicity, this is how she sees her older brother's best friend, Cal

★★★★★ #LoveinPlaneSight #LaurenConnolly #NetGalley Sweet and funny , this is a story not to be missed. Ms. Connolly's writing continues to be better and better. I love her romance stories and will read everything she writes. Love in Plane Sight brings us and center to the love of being in the air. Beth has always wanted to be a pilot. There are unfortunate obstacles in her life that have prevented her from flying. Still, it is a dream and it may just be possible to com

★★★★ #TheShopOnHiddenLane #JayneAnnKrentz #NetGalley When it comes to paranormal suspense with romance neatly entwined, Jayne Ann Krentz is always a winner for me. In the latest story, We are pull back into Fogg Lake and the mysterious government experimentation. The character types are familiar with Sophy Harper and Luke Wells. Sophy is the responsible one whilst Luke is the broody man with trust issues. Their families have a history together that has been mostly bad in t

★★★★ #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

★★★★ #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

★★★ #LegacyofBlood #HeatherGraham #NetGalley I see ghosts. Having ghostly spies to help surveillance and information gathering is a definite boon. In the 3rd book of the Blackbird Files, Jeanette flies off to France for another "vampire" like case. This series is a spin off of the popular Krewe of Hunters. I am still a bit mixed in my feelings on this series. What I enjoy about this story is the suspense and the solving of crimes. I also really enjoy the psychic aspect o

★★★★★ #Comingupforair #MeganHart #angst #netgalley When it comes to emotional conflict and angst, no one does it better for me than author Megan Hart. The conflicts she creates for her characters evoke a visceral response in me . . . every.bloody.time. I am in love with her writing because it cannot be easy to write these poignant love stories. In coming up for air, Ms. Hart once again showcases her ability to create star-crossed lovers in a moving manner. What does one do wh

★★★ #BetrayalRoad #TorpedoInk #ChristineFeehan #NetGalley This review is a long time coming. Christine Feehan books always catch my eye. Her darker series, Torpedo Ink featuring a motorcycle club consisting of survivors from child abuse is hit or miss for me. Whilst this one isn't exactly a full on miss, it did not engage me as much as some of the others. Primarily because the characters now seem to be interchangeable. There theoretically is still a long multiple book arc

★★★ ½ #IfYouWereMine #CarrieAnnRyan #OutNow Brutal to be the last woman standing. Harper is a survivor. Her childhood was idyllic until her parents passed. From that point on, it is one after another hit. At one point, she had to fight to live. I like Harper. For someone in her twenties, she has been forged under fire. The latest lost is the worst for her. What she doesn't know, is that she still has someone in her court. I am mixed about this story because I am not t

★★★★★ #TheHauntingofPaynesHollow #Outnow #KelleyArmstrong #BuyitNow #NetGalley Is there anything Ms. Armstrong cannot write? This is a standalone paranormal suspense that sucks me in and keeps me on the edge of my seat. A definite page turner which kept up all night. The book hangover is strong with this one. The story starts out innocently enough with Samantha and her deceased grandfather. She is estranged from the family and wants nothing to do with them since her father's

★★★★★ #OnlyRogueActions #JenniferEstep #Outnow #SpaceOpera Space opera at its finest with betrayal, loyalty tested, and pew-pew-pew! Another winner for me in the Galactic Bond Series. I love Vesper and her incredibly clever mind. In this latest book she once again demonstrates why she is the friend you want at your back. She's the one who will come through for you with little muss or fuss. She does it because it is the right thing. When the game is rigged, the only cours

★★★ #AfterMidnight #DonnaGrant #OutNow Betrayal of the heart is hard to accept. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Sabryn's loss...
