Review by Tenise

Growing up an only child in rural Indiana Cindy grew to rely on her imagination for entertainment. Starting at a young age she would read books to her animals and started telling her stories to anyone that would listen. Over the years her love of reading and telling stories grew into a career of her dreams. She likes to tell sincere stories with unexpected twists.

For Samuel Grayson, everything is black or white. As a funeral director, there’s no room for in-between. He’s accustomed to dealing with life and death, though he’s definitely more comfortable with the latter. Especially when it comes to a chaotic, petite, feisty ball of energy. Freedom Rayne. Samuel’s pretty sure her goal is to make his life hell, or so it appears. When Samuel boards a flight to Las Vegas for his sister’s wedding, the last thing he expects is to share it with the one woman who drives him crazy.

Freedom is eccentric and completely content with it. Floating around from job to job, she finds peace and tranquility in everything she does, including tormenting poor, uptight Samuel Grayson. When she finds herself on the same flight as him for her best friend’s wedding, she sees this as the perfect opportunity to get under his skin, something she tries to do every chance she gets. The problem is the more time she spends with him, the more she likes him.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? Not for Samuel and Freedom. Will they be able to forget about their trip when they return to Rockland Falls? What if one mistake turns out to be the best thing ever?

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

Oh my, I absolutely love Freedom she is full of life and humor. Then there is Samuel he is so strait laced and by the book as they come. These two could not be further apart on the personality spectrum. Freedom had me in stitches and kept Sammy on his toes.

Free had a way of annoying Samuel just by calling him by a nick name or saying something inappropriate would get to “Sammy”. Free always held a soft spot for Sammy. When Samuel’s sister and her best friend was getting married in Vegas she managed to get on the same plane as Samuel. The fun begins at the airport with Free has him try a snack.  Oh boy, that was a disaster.  The fun does not stop there oh no this is only the beginning for Samuel. Let’s say his world has taken a turn.

I absolutely loved watching Freedom and Samuel navigate their relationship. True to Freedoms name she is a free spirit and does/says whatever whenever. Poor Samuel struggles to see anything other than black and white. This causes Sammy so much conflict when it comes to his relationship with Free. I want more of this family they are all so amazing and have their own corkiness about them.

Avid reader, writer, mother, and wife! I love to read contemporary romance. Add in a little “spice” or hot guys in uniform pants, and I’m a happy woman. There’s just something about diving into a book and engrossing in the magic of your hero and heroine getting their happily ever after.

Miller Stratton is a survivor. After a harrowing childhood of poverty, he will do anything it takes to find security for himself and his mom. He’s putting all his hopes and dreams in the fragile frame of his guitar and the beauty he creates with its strings and his soulful voice.

Until Violet.

No one expects to meet the love of their life at age thirteen. But the spunky rich girl steals Miller’s heart and refuses to give it back.

Violet McNamara’s life hasn’t been as simple as it looks. Her picture-perfect family is not so perfect after all. Her best friend Miller is her one constant and she is determined not to ruin their friendship with romantic complications.

But the heart wants what it wants. As Miller’s star begins to rise to stratospheric heights, what will it take for Violet to realize that she’s the girl in all of his love songs?

Lost Boys is a new series of interconnected, coming-of-age standalones from USA Today bestselling author Emma Scott, coming in 2020

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I received an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Best friends since they were 13, Violet and Miller both secretly feel more for each other but they refuse to acknowledge it themselves, let alone tell anyone about it. Their high school days consist of a whole lot of missed opportunities. The question is– will they come to their senses before its too late?

This book was FULL of angst- which I love. The H & h were both very lovable characters. They also had an amazing cast of friends which I also loved and I really hope since this is book 1 in a series that they will all get a chance to tell their stories also. I can’t wait for the next book to see what its about.

Four women who have struggled to accept their imperfections search for a happiness they can’t believe they deserve.

Chloe’s life was perfect until she found a questionable photo on her husband’s phone and then received news that shocked her entire world.

Abi, Chloe’s sister, is a newly single mom who’s been pretending that life away from Grey’s Harbor is ideal instead of admitting that she’s been running away. She knows that once she returns home, she’ll never leave again and may lose every chance at independence.

Neena’s finishing college, but her troubled family life threatens to throw her off track time and again. When the unexpected happens it changes everything she’s ever known.

At first glance, Gina has the perfect life, husband, and children, but the person she presents to others doesn’t reflect who she is on the inside. A horrific childhood haunts her as she desperately runs from a past that refuses to let her go.

Two of these women will find love, one will learn to accept a life she never thought she could, and one will die as each of them search for perfection, in Grey’s Harbor.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I received a copy of the book from the author. This is my honest review.

Perfect Seas tells the stories of Chloe, Neena, Gina, and Abi. 4 women; 2 sisters, 2 best friends, and 1 connected to the other 3 by chance. They are all from the oceanside town of Grey’s Harbor. They all have their own story to tell. Each story intertwines with the others. The stories all have some bad times and some good times. Unfortunately some of them are worse than the others.

I liked how the book was from multiple POV’s. It was written in a way that the reader knows who is talking without backtracking. I really appreciated the flow from one person to the next. Make sure you have the tissues handy. These women have all had their struggles and their stories really pulled at my heart strings.
I laughed with them.
I cried with them.
And just hoped that everything would be okay in the end.

 

Jennifer Sivec writes beautifully broken stories with heart.

She is attracted to and writes stories with characters that are complicated, flawed and completely imperfect. Her books are often a reflection of life, encompassing difficult subjects such as cancer, addiction, abandonment, and abuse. She writes with a raw, complex, yet hopeful approach often weaving tragic stories with honesty and grace, creating unforgettable characters.

Jennifer has been writing since she was in the fourth grade but didn’t publish her first novel until 2014, and has been writing non-stop since. Her passion for reading and sharing stories gives her perspective and peace of mind.

She lives in Ohio with her husband, two boys, and two dogs who create balance and levity for her. She loves her crazy life and wonderful readers, and is grateful for all of it, every day.

You can follow her on BookBub, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, WordPress, or Amazon, and she would love to hear from you at jennifersivec@yahoo.com.

The beginning…
The beginning is always the best place to start when reflecting on what has been.
Thinking back on it, my life had been perfect.
Middle class girl in high school with a happy home life.
My life had been full of nothing but promise.
Life was good.
Everything was great.
And then my whole world went to shit. In one day.
The disease came first.
Then the dead.
It was a fight for my life every single day from the start. But I was different from all the rest.
I had heard my mother’s screams while watching my sister become one with the undead. All the while feeling like there was absolutely nothing I could do to help them.
It killed me.
What’s more, it changed me.
I did everything I possibly could to survive on my own.
And then I learned how to survive with others.
By being their Queen.
Their Zombie Queen.
And by being the most feared woman they ever came in contact with.

This is a WhyChoose novel full of zombies, a sword wielding badass chick, and an army of dudes.
Recommended age 17+ due to content and language.

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

I have to start by saying I don’t read many zombie books but Brandy and Mary wrote it so I could not pass it up.  Well and my BFF said I had to read it because it was amazing.  Brandy and Mary did a great job and I enjoyed it so much. Em and her guys were amazing. Em is a kickass zombie slayer. She knows how to weld those swards of hers. She even has a thing or two to say to all these guys that end up invading her area. She does not need these men in her way or her space but they are persistent and refuse to let her do this on her own.

The Guys are great themselves. Each so different but get along like brothers well except Sam they all take a bit to warm up to him and trust him. Kemp what can I say he is such a roading man but when its just him and Em man do they steam things up even if its not in the shower.  I like all the guys not sure I could choose just one.

If an apocalypse were to ever hit, I want to be with Em no way I could survive on my own.  I love how Em could hold her ground no matter who it was she was up against. She was strong enough to make it through seeing what happened to her mother, sister and friend. When the swards needed to come out she never thought twice about it. The trust and loyalty Em and these guys have for one another was incredible.

This was fast pace, heart stopping, and packed with a ton of action.  I found my heart racing and in a state of panic so many times during this book.  I rally hope this story continues Mary and Brandy have me hooked on Em and her guys.  I NEED more of Em and her guys.

A few of my favorite:

Note to self: that man has the potential to be more dangerous than the fuckfaces.

I hadn’t wanted anything for myself outside of simply surviving in a very long time. Now it wasn’t so much about wanting to stay here, per say, but wanting to stay with them. Each and every single one of them.

Both Kemp and Em are crazy enough to stab them through the heart first and not bother to ask questions later.

“I can have an army of dudes and be a badass zombie slayer.”

Bait.
That’s all she is.
Nothing more.
Nothing else.

And that’s why she’s wanted,
And in danger.

Lauren Owens is so much more.
She’s everything.
Falling for her was never my intention.
But, I couldn’t resist,
Her charm,
Her vulnerability,
Her spirit and drive,
And her unimaginable innocence.

And that’s exactly why my father wants her,
For his own gain.
Now, it’s up to me to take him down,
Stop him once and for all,
Protecting her every step of the way.

Saving her would mean only one thing:
I won’t get to love her.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️4 Stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I received a copy of Rush from the author. This is my honest review.

Vance has 1 goal in life, and that is to put an end to his father’s illegal operation. He is working with both sides of the law to make sure his goal comes to fruition. Everything is going according to plan, well that is until he meets Lauren.

Lauren needs a break from life; time to think. So she and her best friend, Marcy, take a road trip to Marcy’s Yaya’s in Alabama. All is going well until Vance appears in her life an flips it upside down. She is supposed to be using her time away from home to think, not to start falling for the sexy as sin local surf shop owner.

Vance knows Lauren is just what his father is looking for in his operation. The problem is Vance is starting to fall for Lauren but he knows it’s not safe for her to be in his life. He is going to have to try and keep his father from seeing Lauren if he wants to keep her safe.

I love me some romantic suspense and Brooke Page really writes it well. I have always been a fan of her words and Rush was no different. A real page turner from the start. Rush is the 1st book in the Riptide series. Silly me- I finished in 1 day now I’m just impatiently waiting for book 2. I am really excited to see what happens next.

Brooke Page is a contemporary romance author who loves writing romantic suspense novels that will lead her readers through twists and turns with each page. She wants her readers to feel like they are a part of the thrill, making their hearts race from not only passion but also the intensity of the story. Brooke has a craft for weaving steam and mystery, giving her readers a story they won’t want to put down.

 


Throughout history, The Lady, Goddess of the Lycan world, has gifted werewolf packs with humans who carry her mark. Theodora Morrissey’s plans to return to college for her graduate degree are ended when she is awakened by an otherworldly voice on a rarely used airstrip in Nebraska.

To the Novus pack, the word of their leader, their Laird, is the law. With compelling gray eyes and long dark hair, Raider Black rules his pack with intelligence and ruthlessness. To cement the security of his pack, Black has committed to mate another Packleader’s daughter. But he’s finding it impossible to fight his attraction to the pack’s alluring new Seer, claiming her as his own.

Sweet, fearless, and unintentionally funny, Theo upends Black’s world and pushes the boundaries of his rules. How far is Black willing to go, and what will he sacrifice, to save both his pack and the human Seer who’s found a way not only into his bed, but his heart?

From the gutter to the stars… 

Dance is in my blood.
It’s what keeps me sane, out of trouble. It used to keep them out of trouble too.
A group of boys I grew up with.
Xeno, York, Zayn and Dax.
We were a crew once and we ruled the clubs.
Separate we were insanely good, together we were unbeatable. F*&ing on fire.
I was their girl and they were my Breakers.
Until they did something they promised they never would; break my heart.

We were seventeen when they left me.
You see, for kids like us, dance was all we had.
Growing up in a rundown housing estate in London with no prospects can make you view the world differently.
It can make you choose the wrong path.
I chose dance, and they chose crime.

Three years later I’ve won a scholarship to Stardom Academy. I try to forget my past.
But how can I do that when the four boys who hurt me are back?
And this time they’re following in my footsteps and joining the academy too.

**Freestyle is book one of this new gritty, contemporary reverse harem academy trilogy for 17+ readers and deals with adult themes and some subjects you may find upsetting. If you love dance, your men on the criminal side, alpha hot holes and the friends-to-enemies-to-lovers trope, this is for you. Contains foul language and sexual scenes and ends on a cliffhanger.**

I received a copy of this book for an honest review

Bea Paige is a new to me author. When I read the Synopsis, I was intrigued. This is a reverse harem; the guys are HOT and Pen is amazing.

Pen has had a hard life between dealing with her mother and brother things have not been pretty for her. Pen only wants a family to love her. Her only outlet for the hurt in her life if Dance. She meets up with the Breakers, who are Xeno, York, Zayn & Dax. She gets to know them and falls for all of them but when Xeno makes her choose stay with dance crew as friends or pick one and never dance with the crew again. There are twist, turns, deceit, ultimatums and deals that are made that make her walk away from her Breakers.

Things are looking up for Pen when she gets into Stardom Academy. She is on her way to her dream. Until the Breakers make an appearance in her life again. She is in turmoil the deals she made is now off the table and things can get UGLY.

I enjoyed getting to know Pen, Xeno, York, Zayn, and Dax.  I have to say they all have qualities I loved but they also have huge flaws. Dax is the one that walked away with my heart.  These guys would do anything to protect Pen and Pen would do anything to protect her family. Pen’s Brother, David, and Zayn’s uncle, Jeb, are an evil pair and manipulate things to what they want no matter the cost. This is a cliff hanger and I cannot wait to find our what happens next.

Bea Paige lives a very secretive life in London… she likes red wine and Haribo’s (preferably together) and occasionally swings around poles when the mood takes her.
Bea loves to write about love and all the different facets of such a powerful emotion. When she’s not writing about love and passion, you’ll find her reading it and ugly crying.

Gabe Sterling and Danny “Murder” Murdoch carry heavy baggage from the past and have no real reason to be drawn to each other. When they find themselves in an odd sort of friendship, both men are interested in more, but neither thought love was going to be part of the deal.

With a younger nurse who has an affinity for lace and an older mechanic with a tough reputation, Hearts Aflame is a steamy, friends-to-lovers, opposites attract, gay romance.

A.D. Ellis is an Indiana girl, born and raised. She spends much of her time in central Indiana as an instructional coach/teacher in the inner city of Indianapolis, being a mom to two amazing school-aged children, and wondering how she and her husband of nearly two decades haven’t driven each other insane yet. A lot of her time is also devoted to phone call avoidance and her hatred of cooking.
She loves chocolate, wine, pizza, and naps along with reading and writing romance. These loves don’t leave much time for housework, much to the chagrin of her husband. Who would pick cleaning the house over a nap or a good book? She uses any extra time to increase her fluency in sarcasm.
A.D. uses she/her or they/them pronouns.
