Review by Twinsie Melinda

I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.

Don’t let this novella fool you it is packed with suspense, romance, and a bit of spooky. I loved getting to see the cast and catching up on what has been going on with them.

The group are at a Halloween party when Ari, Thea, and Shea head to the library to get Ari’s phone.  What could possibly go wrong they were only a little way away from the library and they are in a group of three.  In Sleepy Hallow a lot can go wrong when you let your guard down and think you are safe on Halloween night.  When the girls go missing their men go on the hunt for them and won’t give up until they find them.

This was a quick read that had me flipping pages to find out what was going to happen and who took the girls. I so enjoy reading novella’s that give you little updates on everyone in the series.

The curvy and beautiful Eme Stonewell is the alpha’s daughter. She believes in fated mates and happily-ever-afters, but that’s not what is in store for her. In order to keep the rogues from taking over the territory, the Brook Mountain Pack and Stonewell Pack must create an alliance. That alliance comes in the form of Eme mating – imprinting – with the Brook Mountain Alpha, Logan Brook. Not only is Logan Brook the Brook Mountain Alpha, but he’s the Head Alpha of all the United States packs. He needs this alliance between the packs to help maintain his campaign. He doesn’t mind that he has to imprint with the alpha’s daughter. In fact, he finds her stunning. But he has one problem. She wants absolutely nothing to do with him, and she isn’t afraid to say it. Without the mating, there is no alliance. How is he going to convince her that he’s a decent guy – that he might be her happily-ever-after after all?

I received a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

I love when you can get two books in one.  I enjoyed reading about these wolfs.

Book one was Logan and Eme. Eme wanted to wait for her fated mate but her Dad had other plans and agreed she would be with Logan to strengthen both of their packs. Eme wanted no part of it and rejected Logan. Watching Logan try to woo Eme was the best. Watching their love unfold was heartwarming.

I was a little sad to see this story end but then I realized Val and Wayne were up next. I thought Logan and Eme were great oh man Val and Wayne walked away with my heart. Poor Val had a thing for Wayne forever but typical male he was clueless. One drunken night, one person confesses their love, and another remembers nothing causes some tension.

I enjoyed the plot of these books. I would love to have more about some of the others in the pack.

At first, I thought it was just paranoia.

It wouldn’t be the first time, after all. Ever since that night two years ago, I’ve never felt completely safe. So I convinced myself the strange sense of being watched was all in my head. My PTSD flaring up just as it had in the past.

Then I was nearly run off the road on my way home from work, and as much as I wished it was just a coincidence, I knew it wasn’t.

I could go to the police, but I wanted someone I trusted to help me.

So I called Rafe. My brother’s former teammate and best friend. And—though I’d never let on for a second—the man who’d held my heart ever since I met him.

As soon as Eden told me she was in trouble, I dropped everything to help her.

“Maybe it’s nothing,” she told me. “But things have been happening.”

I didn’t need to hear more. If Eden needed me, I would be there. And if someone was bothering her, I’d teach them that they messed with the wrong woman. Because as a bounty hunter and former Green Beret, I’m the last person they want to piss off.

When I arrive in Portland to find Eden terrified and in danger, every protective instinct comes roaring to the surface. And I’m furious that someone would dare try to hurt her.

I’m not the white knight I always thought Eden deserved. Far from it. But I’m a dangerous man when someone I care about is threatened. And Eden? I’ll do anything to protect her.

Protected from Malice is a slow burn friends-to-lovers story with a morally grey hero who’ll do anything to protect the people he loves, a brave and intelligent heroine, a team of Army veterans, thrilling twists, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. No cliffhangers and a happily-ever-after guaranteed!

I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

In the beginning I thought Eden was going to be a meek quite character but that was not the case I learned that when she was trying to get away from who ever was chasing her one night. Eden is actually one of the stronger characters I have read in a while with everything she has been through. I absolutely loved Rafe really one phone call and he was on his way to help his former teammate and best friends’ sister. He was amazing with Eden even helping her with panic attacks. The way all the guys are with Eden was amazing especially when she was telling them everything that happened to her.

Eden has been holding in what happed to her in the past. She doesn’t want to burden her brother, Indy, as he is dealing with his own issues. There is Rafe who she has had her eyes set on for a long time but there can be nothing there because he is her brother’s best friend. Rafe will send Eden text messages or make the occasional call to check in but she has a feeling he does it because he feels he has to not because he wants to. The Chemistry between these two was incredible.

We get to see new characters in this book and I would love to know more about all of them. This was a wonderful start to a new series I cannot wait to read more about this group.

People think that just because they know my name, my reputation, and my family that they know me. They don’t.

They say I’m a manwhore, but who wouldn’t be with my face and body? They say I’m a partier, and that’s not going to change. They say I’m a fighter, and hell yes I am. F*ck with mine, and I’ll f*ck you back ten times worse.

So, yes. Maybe what they say is true, but that’s not all of me.

I’m loyal to a damned fault. If you earn it, I’ll never leave your side. And when I love, I love hard, but there’s another side to me where it’s dark and painful. That side’s been kept hidden, until her. Taylor saw inside of me, and the second she was there, she owned me.

People think they know me…

…but only she can see me.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I purchased this audio book.

I loved Logan we got to see a side to him that not everyone gets to see.  We know the playboy, partier, funnyman, and even fighter but here we see another side of him the the loving, protector, and loyal to those he loves. Honestly, after growing up with the parents he had and seeing what those he held close put him though I get why he is the way he is. He has so much hurt and is guarded but he doesn’t let is show it haunts him but it does. He just wants someone to see him for who he is and to love him for it.

I love Taylor’s spunk and attitude she can go toe to toe with Logan which is just what he needs.  One day everything changed for Taylor, she lost her mom, her boyfriend and is all essence her dad too. Taylor is one tough cookie though after all she has been through, she kept on going. She holds her ground when it come to Logan or anyone really.  Even with her encounters with the ex she knows what she does and doesn’t want and stands strong with that. She does have a moment where her walls are thrown back up and she freezes Logan out by pushing him away.

Logan and Taylor are the perfect match both have their share of heartbreak and both make it hard to break their inner circle but these two fit together perfectly.  I did enjoy seeing the relationship between Logan, Mason, Sam and Nate then adding Taylor in the mix.  Sam accepting Taylor with no judgments no expectations was heartwarming.  Watching Logan with his family and see Taylor with her close friends you realize they are not perfect but they are protective of each other, want what is best for each other and love each other. I loved seeing the softer side of Logan. Seriously the scenes on the roller coaster had me tearing up, not just the interaction between Logan and Taylor but also the interaction between Logan and Mason.

Graham Halstead and Summer Morton did a great job brining Tijan’s book to life. The flow from one scene to another and one character to another was seamless. I had a hard time pressing the pause button on this one at times.

A few of my favorite quotes:

“I told Logan I’d be a friend to you,.. So I’d like to do that, and I’d like to do it the way I’d want it done for me: No opinions. No judgments. Just an Easy acceptance.” ~Sam

“I was going to only be friends with them and make a point of giving them whatever they needed. But all that went out the door when Logan sat next to me in sociology. Somehow, and I truly have no idea how, he’s become my friend.” ~Taylor

“Family never leaves each other. You save each other. If it ends, it ends together. That’s all you can do, because even if you get out, you’re alone.” ~Logan

“You’re sweet. You’re kind. You want to be loved. You still miss your mom’s love. You yearn for a dad who’ll choose you over his lover. You want a girl who’ll hold your hand on top of a broken Roller coaster.”…”You want a partner in crime, but also someone you can protect, and who’ll do the same for you.”…”No one knows the real you, but I do.” ~ Taylor

WALLSTREET JOURNAL, NEW YORK TIMES, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

You’d think a billion dollars, a professional hockey team and a six-bedroom mansion on the Promenade would satisfy a guy. You’d be wrong.

For seven years Rebecca has brightened my office with her wit and her smile. She manages both my hockey team and my sanity. I don’t know when I started waking in the night, craving her. All I know is that one whiff of her perfume ruins my concentration. And her laugh makes me hard.

When Rebecca gets hurt, I step in to help. It’s what friends do. But what friends don’t do is rip off each others’ clothes for a single, wild night together.

Now she’s avoiding me. She says we’re too different, and it can never happen again. So why can’t we keep our hands off each other?

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I purchased this book and audiobook.

Narrators Zachary Webber, Virgina Rose and Joe Hempel did a wonderful job with their narrations on this book. They kept the story moving and had me wanting more. This was the first time I have read a book by Sarina Bowen. How can you go wrong with a billionaire hockey book.

Even though Becca and Nate have been friends for seven years they both have been suppressing their feelings because Nate was Becca’s boss and it wouldn’t be professional to get involved. Things changed when she decided to step out on the ice and fell hitting her head. Now Nate has delegated himself the one to take care of her and make sure she gets the rest she needs.

I loved the flashbacks to when Becca first started working for Nate was great. I enjoyed seeing their relationship grow from a great friendship. Becca doesn’t feel that she is good enough for Nate. There are times in the book that she doesn’t take things that are happening the right way because her feelings get in the way. I have to say I liked the Pride and Prejudice references. The side characters made this book also. I want to read more about them. I thought it was funny how everyone knew these two belonged together but they internally fought their attraction because of their strong friendship and employee/employer relationship. This was a great book to listen to and I am intrigued to read more of this author.
