Devney Perry amazes me. She grabs hold of your heartstrings and makes you fall in love with her characters. Perry's storytelling is so real, you feel like your inside the story, the story lines are real, the emotions are real. I just love her books. TINSEL was a big surprise, I didn't think I would like Sofia and Dakota's story, but once again Perry just WOWed me.

There are so many heart-stopping moments in this story, and they unfold at a perfect pace. I loved Kaine and Piper, their emotional roller-coaster is so real and vivid, Devney Perry writing is flawless. I loved every moment of this book!

TIMID: Lark Cove series by Devney Perry - WOW! Just wow…I was hooked from the beginning and held on till the very end.

TATTERED: Lark Cove series by Devney Perry - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO EVERYONE!! Whether you‘re a romance reader or not, this is a timeless story of love and family that is sure to appeal to the hearts of every reader.

The novel was well written, quick read but, the novel lost me almost right from the beginning. The reason for that was behind the breakup of Jacob and Kallie, it was weak and disappointing. Jacob was written as this great man, no man would do what he did, to choose a friend and her issue over the love of his life. What kept me reading was the secondary characters Casey and Olivia, book 2 in the series is their story and I can't wait to read it.

A lush, rich, beautiful story. set against the vibrant, backdrop of Nantucket. Great book for your beach bag, didn‘t stop reading till the sun went down.

THE COCONUT CHRONICLES by Patrick Youngblood - is extremely well written, and Youngblood's wit and humour had me laughing out loud throughout the book as he described his and Michael's journey, purchasing a home in Vieques and what they experienced with the extensive renovations required to fulfill their dream. I recommend it to fans of travel memoirs.

Filled with suspense and peopled with characters that engage from the first to the last page.

I love the Adair series, and I love Mackennon Galbraith so I was looking forward to this book. ALWAYS YOU was a completely gripping book, it made my pulse race. I was truly stunned.

A highly-charged love story that will keep you reading till you reach the end.

A highly-charged love story that will keep you reading till you reach the end.

THE LAST CLOSE CALL was a fast read, well written police procedural, interesting topics with a good plot. I enjoy all of Griffin's books but, this one really felt stunted, it needed more action Rowan and Jack are good lead characters, but there was no chemistry at all. I needed more, unfortunately my high hopes for this one crashed. 3* is the best I can do.

Unfortunately this book did not do it for me. I had a hard time with the dialogue, the back and forth between Aiden and Bailey was too much, too weird. Camila's dialogue was just over the top. There was a big cliffhanger, but that doesn't even interest me to move forward to book #2. I lost interest in caring for what happens with these characters, and their storyline. Sadly, I would not recommend this one.

ASHES OF YOU by Catherine Cowles....I was really looking forward to reading Lawson‘s story, and it definitely exceeded my expectations, I loved it. Lawson was my favorite Cedar Ridge character, and his boys where so charming! Hallie‘s character was another good one. There was a nice slow-burn romance, with a good story-line, I didn‘t want to put it down. I‘m sad that the series is over.

A beautiful love story with suspense, a hero obsessed with keeping the heroine safe, a small town you want to live in and a family you want to be adopted into. Aspen and Roan‘s story was so good. Aspen was my favorite female character of the series without a doubt. I loved how she saw life, you go through the bad to see all the good. Lawson‘s story is next from the moment I started reading about him I been anxiously waiting for Ashes of You.

ECHOES OF YOU (Lost & Found series book 2) - It made me swoon one moment, and it made me sit on the edge of my seat the next.

WHISPERS OF YOU (The Lost & Found series book 1) - Between a romance that heals all wounds and a suspense element that keeps you on edge, this book is a winner of feels and thrills. If you enjoy small town romantic suspense I highly recommend all Catherine Cowles books

I loved Shiloh and Ramsey's story, I just knew it would tug at the heartstrings with the PTSD/trauma we were seeing, Shiloh fighting for freedom, A surly cowboy who isolates from the rest of the world, I was hooked. Then adding the secondary story of Aidan and Elliot, the dynamic suspense, it left me on tether hooks throughout the whole book. Tattered and Torn series is one worth reading if you are a Romantic Suspense fan.

After reading several books by Catherine Cowles, you think it would get repetitive but every time she still surprises me. SHATTERED SEA is Laiken and Boden‘s story and was another touching and heartbreaking story I really enjoyed. Another big winner and I can‘t wait to read the last book in the series.

HIDDEN WATERS....I really don't have anything to say other than, why have I not read this series sooner

FALLING EMBERS....was sweet, romantic and suspenseful, just enough twist and turns that kept me hanging on till the end. I love a good romantic suspense and this series is a must read.

I enjoyed this one a lot! Catherine Cowles is badass at writing romantic suspense. Tattered Stars kept me on my toes, had me rooting for the main love interests, Everly and Hayes. I loved that the characters, including the secondary characters, were well-developed. They felt real which is something you don‘t always get in a book. Another great star to a series.

BENEATH THE WRECKAGE by Catherine Cowles - Narrated by Jason Clark and Erin Mallon
WOW....I loved this book, everything about this book was perfect. The narration of this one just made all the characters come alive. Jason Clark is my new favourite narrator, that deep baritone was just swoon worthy. What a way to end a great series.

I have been enjoying Wrecked series by Catherine Cowles but, book 4 RECKLESS REFUGE fell short for me. Although it was still a good read, a good edition to the series I felt too disconnected from the two main characters, Shay and Brody. They were part of the three books like all of the other Wrecked characters, Shay made a couple of small appearances in book 3. This one for me was a 3.5* looking forward to the final book BENEATH THE WRECKAGE.

Warning: WRECKED PALACE by Catherine Cowles will make you swoon. Wrecked series just keeps getting better with each book.

PERFECT WRECKAGE (Wrecked Series #2) - Cowles delivers a great story. With this one we have a bit of a non-reciprocal love, a playful hero, and a snarky heroine and some suspense along the way to help keep the plot moving. I adored this book, even better than the first book in the series

I had high expectations for Wrecked series given that I loved Cowles's previous Sutter Lake series, considering those expectations not just met but surpassed. I enjoyed Bell and Ford‘s story it was a hard-fought one, a well-written story with a well-conceived plot and characters that I enjoyed. The romance was sweet and it had an element of suspense that made it even more fun to read. A solid 5 stars for Reckless Memories.

BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN REDEMPTION the last book in the Sutter Lake series is Mason and Anna's story, both are fantastic characters. This romances was emotional and raw, so different from the other 4 books in the series. There were so many small, beautiful moments between Mason and Anna that made your heart happy. This one was my favourite in the series, Catherine Cowles writes these beautiful romances, that just keeps you wanting more.

Just like the previous three books Cain and Kennedy's story takes place in the little town of Sutter Lake, I love the charming background. The romance between Cain and Kennedy was good, another slow burning romance, their chemistry was hot. The secondary characters are from the previous books in the series, it's always great to visit them again. BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN CONTROL was another 5* read. I highly recommend this series.

BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN SPIRIT is a heartfelt and emotionally provoking story. The novel delivers intimacy of the heart, good banter, and a little mystery. Catherine Cowles characters are so real, the background and dialogue comes alive, Sutter Lake series is one worth reading.

WHAT WE FIND by Robyn Carr is a story that made me laugh and tear-up a few times. The setting was described perfectly, great characters, and a sweet HEA ending. Though the novel was enjoyable it has description overload, and that for me brings it to a 3* read.

From the moment I started reading BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN LIFE by Catherine Cowles I was completely hooked, I loved, loved Liam. The main characters Tessa and Liam were amazing, the chemistry they shared was sweet, definitely a slow burn romance.I just couldn‘t stop reading about these two. It was definitely a slow burn romance. I can honestly say I‘m loving this series. So good!

BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN PIECES by Catherine Cowles was a good listen, the narration was well done. I loved Walker and his family, the closeness was nice, also liked the small town atmosphere. Taylor's character was a bit annoying, I did not care much about her. The romance element was sweet and the mystery of Sutter's serial killer was shock and awe with a great twist at the end. Not a great book but one worth reading, I will continue with the series.

BE WITH ME has a big ensemble of energetic character. It is a story of family and friendships, relationships and love. It is fast paced, emotional and engaging. Another win by Samantha Young.

One of the hardest thing about reading a book series consecutively is writing reviews without saying the same thing. The one thing I do know is that I love being in the world that Samantha Young has created in the Highlands Series, I flew through each book they are amazing.

LAST BREATH is a short story that felt complete. Sometimes short stories just fall short – character and plot lacks. Not with Last Breath, we get good insight on the characters and the story didn‘t feel rushed. A good introduction to the novel The Good Daughter…if this short story is any indication of what we are in store for, WOW.

Emery and Jacks story was definitely a slow burn romance that gave me butterflies...but when they finally connect, it was extremely HOT. We also connected with previous characters from Hart‘s Boardwalk, I loved that Young kept them all together throughout the series. The Truest Thing was a great addition to the series, it was an enjoyable read. I highly recommend this series to all romance fans.

Samantha Young writes like a dream….THINGS WE NEVER SAID had me hooked. This book enthralled me from the first page to the last.

A highly-charged love story that will keep you reading till you reach the end.

The Bodyguard trope has always been one of my favourite and when you add in the Scottish highlands and one of Young‘s amazing couples in the making, well, I was all in. Walker Ironside made the story for me, a man that is all about protecting those he cares about, with that dark and dangerous vibe, WOW. Sloane was also a strong, likeable character & the secondary characters are pretty awesome too. I‘m looking forward to book 2 AMONG THE HEATHER.

Karen Rose gives her readers impressive characters and a malicious villain, leaving you on pins and needles throughout the novel and absolutely stunned at the ending.

Karen Rose never fails to give readers fantastic well written thrillers. Beneath Dark Waters was very well written, fantastic characters, evil villains, with a roller coaster rise of twist and turns.

Quarter to Midnight showcases the pulsating, vibrant city of New Orleans while it meticulously unravels a fraudulent scheme, laced with duplicity and cruelty, that started back in Hurricane Katrina. Karen Rose at her best with corruption and murder, well-developed characters, and a sweet romance. The story is fast paced and on the edge of your seat exciting. Quarter to Midnight the first in the New Orleans series leaves the reader wanting more.

 A lush, rich, beautiful story. set against the vibrant, backdrop of Ontario, Canada.

Sisters of Summers End is a story of friendship and love. A great story with interesting, likable characters. It‘s a perfect love story that you can‘t put down until you finish reading it. This book makes a good beach read, you will read it in one sitting.

I loved how Mallery explores the relationships in this book, she does it so well. Characters that you can't help but fall in love with. This book felt so real that the characters jumped off the pages, and it all played out in front of you. The storyline was heartwarming and emotional. Some of the issues she about normally would weigh a book down, not here,I reached the end, and it was all perfect.

Elin Hilderbrand gets right inside the heads of her characters. A compelling tale....be warned it‘s dangerously addictive.

WINTER STROLL by Elin Hilderbrand, is full of drama and everyday struggles. The Quinns are good people, dealing with grief, betrayals, old loves, new loves, and addiction. It‘s a good second book in the WINTER series, a heartwarming read for the holiday season.

I thought this book had a great concept; six different authors recounting the lives of Henry VIII wives, another author to recount Henry's side of each story. I wanted to like this book but, I did not. The stories just did not flow. I struggled getting through the stories, the recount of Henry's part felt like it was just a repeat. There was nothing exciting about this book, I would recommend a big pass on this one.

Intense, dark, and absolutely riveting. The incredibly talented Karin Slaughter ignites the action on page one, creating a real page turner that will keep you up till you read every satisfying page.
