Audio Review 2022

I purchased this audio book. The narration does a great job changing the voices and bring smart ass Hunter to life!!  I have enjoyed him for this series.

Review from 2017

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

Oh Hunter!! I was waiting not so patiently for you and you did not disappoint me at all.The book starts with Hunter returning from that little incident on TV…ya know where he outted himself as a shifter to save VC Warrior, Jill. Everyone in town is mad except for Garrett. He is relieved that Hunter is back to help defend the pack from other alpha’s. They looked at what Hunter did as Garrett not having full control of his of his pack.

When Hunter returns he can FEEL eyes on him and is stunned to realize they belong to a pair of grey eyes he has tried to deny his entire life……

Emily has loved Hunter her entire life. She has put with the fact she is the town joke. Hunter took her to prom only because he was forced to other wise he never gave her the time of day….every other woman has gotten his “time” but not her.

Emily is over loving him and her confrontation causes Hunter to come to terms with the fact he loves Emily. However, with one of his brothers also loving her, ex drama of hers, the town being infiltrated by other packs and haters wanting to keep Emily and him apart, he has his work cut out for him.

Can I get an AMEN for Steve, Slade and Jill being in this book!! OMG Steve…for real I cant wait for him to fall in love. He made me giggle so many times this book. I mean must Shake it off right!!?? Jill and Slade were as adorable as ever.

The Mate series delves into the kickass world of the Warriors’ mates and how united, they can make a difference—just like their badass Protectors. Follow along to see how these exceptional women’s newfound freedom affect those around them and which Warrior may or may not support their feisty independent mate’s new and exciting path.

Goodreads

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

WHAT!!!!  OMG THIS BOOK!!!  I am so excited for this series.  When Teresa told us she was thinking about it, I flipped my SHIT!!  I mean we fall in love with these ladies in their stories but then we don’t get to see them as much because the guys get all the action….damn Cock Club right Jill!!??  So, to SEE the ladies all banding together to help in their own way, was amazing!!

Damon and Nicole have been through so much but Nicole always wonders and get stuck in her head….maybe she isn’t enough or the right person for her strong, decapitating heads specialist Alpha warrior, Damon.

I loved seeing her return to her roots and essentially where it all began…….Damon and Nicole both are so confused because they want the best for their mate and their relationship, but the changes are starting to cause some fraying to not only their relationship but also a few others…like say My Alpha Jared.  I am about to nut punch him hardcore…what’s up!!????

I love that no matter what series or cross over series you read with the Protectors in it, the story line is FRESH and the villains are super evil.  I mean the bad guy from the Mates series is also connected to the bad guy in the main series buuuut slightly different.

If you love Teresa and her books then TRUST ME, you will need this book to add to your collection of the rest of her amazing books.

#WOTR22 #Romance #TwinsieforthedayPam – Brad, The Fortuna Sare Society by Rochelle Bradley

Brad: The Fortuna Dare Society by [Rochelle Bradley, Kyleigh Poultney]

The Fortuna Dare Society: a Book Club for Men. What happens at book club doesn’t necessarily stay at book club.

Welcome to Fortuna, Texas where the men are dared to love as big as they live. The men of widower Brad Davidson’s book club, the Fortuna Dare Society, are dared to act out a trope, setting, and character with a significant other.

That poses a problem for Brad, who hasn’t had serious relationship in over twenty years.

He likes the town librarian, but it might not amount to anything more than a strange, costume-staged-musically-enhanced meal.

Then again, he married the last woman he went out of his way to date.

Goodreads

Review by Pam James

Rochelle Bradley 5*****
Brad: The Fortuna Dare Society
Book Club Dare….
This is a great short read. This book club is mostly men. They asked a few women to join. Brad is one of the guys. Ophelia is a librarian they asked to join. I love the dare they gave Brad. Such an enjoyable book! From a True Fan… Pam James

Rochelle puts an artistic spin on everything she does but there are two things she fails at miserably:
1. Cooking (seriously, she can burn water)
2. Sewing (buttons immediately fall back off)

She loves baking and makes a mean BTS (Better than Sex) cake. When in observation mode she is quiet, however, her mouth is usually open with an encouraging glass-is-half-full pun or, quite possibly, her foot.

She is a Bearcat, a Buckeye, an interior decorator, and fluent in sarcasm.

In 2008, when her youngest entered Kindergarten, she decided to get the stories out of her head. Midway through her first novel, hurricane Ike (yes, a hurricane in Ohio) rendered the laptop useless with a nine-day power outage. She didn’t give up, but continued to pursue her dream.

Every November Rochelle takes on the challenge of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo.org) where she endeavors to write 50,000 words in thirty days. You can often hear her cheering the Dayton area Wrimos (those who join her in this crazy pursuit).

Rochelle shares her home with a big black cat, an itty-bitty orange tiger kitty, her daughter, her son, and her Prince.

She loves to connect with readers. You can find her on Facebook (search for Author Rochelle Bradley), Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Goodreads

I purchased this audio book.

The narration provided by Virginia Rose was great.  She did a wonderful job varying the voices and giving emotion to the characters.  A bad audio voice can ruin a book so fast, but she did a fantastic job!!  I was totally engaged and hooked by how she told the story.

Here we go with my long-winded story…lol…if you read my reviews you are used to this.  I met Anna at a book signing but she was also lined up to attend my signing.  I like to read something from each author, and this was the perfect time to grab her plus get her opinion.  Now I like military but my bestie LOVES military so I knew buying her a book would be a great gift idea.  After talking to Anna and hearing her say Audio…my dog ears perked up at that comment….this was the series I picked for me.  LOL

This is the spin off series from the alpha series but I didn’t feel lost or like I missed anything at all.  The characters are all introduced, and I would have thought this was just a regular series had Anna not told me it was series two.  So anyone who likes to stay in “True order” you are ok to start here.

Nate and his fellow RISC team at hanging out having a beer and razzing each other like single dudes do.  When Gracelynn steps out on the patio his whole body is on high alert.  He must meet her.  He ends up scoring a secret date with her on the guise of planning a bachelor/bachelorette party together.  The chemistry between the two is off the charts but his military buddy and her sister are like NOPE.  You are a dirty dawg!!  Stay the EFF AWAY from Gracie!!  Of course, he listens…bahahha nope.  Gracie, of course listens BAHAHAHA nope. The couple begin a slow dance and the steam is off the charts.  When things change and Gracie has to go undercover with Nate as her “Handler” everything gets blurred REAL quick for the two.

The story of why and who is after Gracie was a good one.  I enjoyed all the god guy/bad guy stuff and how the team was working together to stop the terrorist.  I will say I giggled at the villains voice in the audio because it totally is the perfect villain voice!!

Now I will say there were a couple times I did eye roll at the “women are helpless” but then just let it go because hey its not my book.  But yeah, once or twice I was like REALLY Girl???  All in all, I loved the book and can’t wait to download book two audio.

Author of the exciting R.I.S.C. Series, Anna Blakely brings you stories of love, action, and edge of your seat suspense. As an avid reader herself, Anna writes what she loves…strong, Alpha heroes and the intelligent, independent heroines they love.

Anna’s dream is to create stories her readers will enjoy, and characters they’ll fall in love with as much as she has. She believes in true love and Happily Ever After, which is what she will bring to you.

Anna lives in rural Missouri with her husband and children, as well as several rescued animals. When she’s not writing, Anna enjoys reading, watching action and horror movies (the scarier the better), and spending time with her amazing family.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

Man of course I start my reviews for Teresa this way but if you are not a fan of the series and you like Paranormal, you need to be!!  This book I admit/I was looking forward too.  The love dynamics between Sid and Lana are amazing  These two are two peas in a pod when it comes to protecting those they love and protect.

So this book we get to meet Lana’s old team again and learn a lot more about what she would do and had done to protect the citizens on the town.  She is one bad ass chick.  Sid, of course being the alpha male, was having a hard time accepting his wife is a bad ass.  He forgot the love he had for her when the first started working together as VC.  I admit, Lana has become a quiet side character in the series, but she is BACK. The feisty detective is going to make people pay for what they are learning about as far as the explosion and threats to the Warriors.  This book made me laugh so much because hello Sid but the scene with Sid and Steve…BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,,when you read you will know what I mean.

Can I say the new love interest blooming was making my heart feel all squishy!! But the hot mess between Charger and Raven….Man my heart was on the floor and people stomped on it.  Gah, these two need to figure shit out QUICK!!  But the mystery man and why Raven freaked out has me so excited for the next book!!  I. Cannot. Wait!!

#wotr22 #ReleaseDay #ARC #Paranormal #MFM #series #Spinoff #99cents- Their Chosen Mate, The Night Shift book 3 by Miranda Lynn

A dominant mate, a loving submissive, and the woman who steals both their hearts.
Amelia decided a mate wasn’t in her future. However, her panther disagreed the moment he spoke. Their body came to life at Niko’s growly voice. When Miguel’s caring attention caused the same heat to build within her, she rebels against what fate has presented her.
Niko had no time for one mate, let alone two. A night at the club satisfied his needs when he needed to scratch the proverbial itch. He must let go of the stereotypes his prior pride taught him if there was any chance to accept his mates.
Miguel knew immediately that the bond between the three of them was an amazing, unique gift. His panther preened at the realization fate chose him for such a prize. He just needed to get Niko and Amelia to see and accept the connection uniting them.
Can Amelia overcome the scars from her life and accept the gift right in front of her? Can Niko soften enough to accept the gift fate presented him with? Can Miguel’s loving attention bring them all together once and for all?

Goodreads

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

Amelia, Niko, Miguel are a hot yummy story full of denial, love, acceptance, and full on brattiness.  LOL

When we first met Amelia, she was a mess. She had been bound and set to be sold in to trafficking.  She has been saved but still working on getting back to a more normal self.  She has become very close to Molly who was also with her in the cages.  When Molly gets lost in the jungle and Amelia also gets lost looking for her Niko and Miguel soon realize their change at happiness as a group will be lost.

Niko and Miguel had been “playing” together and both wanted more but were afraid of how they felt.  Miguel knew but Niko fought it.  When they both feel for Amelia, they have to confront their feelings for what the three could have.

Miguel was on board for having both.  Amelia was freaked out and full of her own trauma.  Niko was afraid to admit what he felt for them both.  The three have a lot of work and learning to communicate.  The guys also need to teach Amelia about the lifestyle they love. They need to get her motivated to want to try “things”.

There is a lot to this story between the growing love the group has, the magic being used, the bad dudes making an appearance, and of course people fighting the fates for what they love.  I loved the story and how this books moves the series ARC further. But Diego is still my baby daddy….sorry guys!! LOL

Book 3 Here –

Start the series –

Book 2 –

Escaping reality one book at a time has been Miranda’s motto since she learned to read. As an only child raised on a dairy farm her creative imagination brought words to life. She devoured more books growing up than her little town bookmobile could handle. It was inevitable that she would turn from reading them to writing them. This is her way to help not only herself but others escape the day to day drudge. Her books may take you on a journey through time, give you a look inside a fantasy realm, or delve into the magic of almost anything paranormal. Threading in heart stopping romance and dropping an occasional super sexy scene just to keep you on your toes.

Miranda’s stories are focused around strong female leads and sexy males who appreciate them. She strives to encourage her readers that they can have it all in real life too.

You can find her most days either subbing at the local high school or tucked away in her office working on the next story with a cup of java in her hand. She loves connecting with her readers online as well as in real life so make sure to find her on Facebook and check out where she will be signing throughout the year on her website.

The narrator does a great job making the voices original for each character,  I think he does a great job voicing Hunter who is a huge pain in the butt in the best way.  LOL

Review from 2015

Received a copy for a honest review

I love me some Teresa Vampires soooo of course i will stoked to read some shifter stuff from her.

This book is a great look at how amazing Teresa writes for any paranormal person. You can see her style. Her alpha males are strong but her kick butt females are anything but weak.

So this book is about Janna who is a shifter who has never shifted because she has no clue about her other half. She is looking for a man who may have some answers for her. She and 2 other shifters stumble into the town when she is met by Garrett Foster…RAWR LADIES!! Garrett and Jenna fight each other every step of the way but both are drawn to the others inner wolf.

The story is a great, quick read. The fighting is awesome. The loving is HAWT annnnd the humor is a riot. I hope she writes more from this town of shifters. I want to see Marcus get his HEA and I am dying to know who will change Hunter into a one woman man.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book.

Oh Dreamer! OH Freaky!  I admit I was kinda curious about Freaky AKA Christopher and how he got his name.  I too figured with the group of guys he found his brotherhood with it had to be a sex thing.  LOL  I mean the Steels aren’t exactly the purest of men.

We meet Dreamer and she isn’t living but surviving day to day with an abusive dick named Clive.  Luckily Dell finds her at an art show and changes her life for the better.  After rescuing her and talking to Montana where she was hoping to hook her up with The Hard Road through Reds connections, she is staying to see life without abuse.  She is staying to see what she wants in life when she crosses paths with a hard-working member of the Steels.

Freaky is always good for a laugh.  He is a stressed-out mess planning Hack’s bachelor party while also seeing Hack stress out over marrying Preacher Girl.  Freaky can’t imagine having a life where you just want one woman to live your life with and plan your life around.  When he bumps into Dreamer he is mesmerized by her beauty and the way she looks at everything.

The couple have a strong connection everyone can see. He is fully in and wants to make her his but worries she will compare him to Clive.  Dreamer is worried about what being claimed really means.  She has never had freedom and now that she has it she is afraid to give it up.

The couple soon learn that when push comes to shove, they need the other to be complete.  When Clive comes back in the picture and a new MC group makes a play in town, Dreamer and Freaky rely on each other to make everything safe for the other again.

I totally enjoyed the side story of Hack and Preacher Girl’s wedding.  Those two are so perfect for each other.  But I loved getting “new commers” view of the family we love.  When new people see the love the couples have for each other, plus the commitment to the family has a whole, it makes you fall in love with all the characters again.

#WOTR22 #Paranormal #Shifters #Wolves #Witches #SpinOff #SeriesStarter – Rebel, Alumbra Pack Book 1 by AJ Renee

Rebel (Alumbra Pack Book 1) by [AJ Renee, Angie Wade]

He’d long given upon finding his mate, but when he does, is she too broken to trust their bond?
Meeting boys after curfew should have been innocent fun, but it turned Rosalia’s life upside down. Escaping the werewolf compound wasn’t an option, so she did her best to survive the twisted hell she’d been dragged to. Her dreams of having a real chance at life had been smothered by guilt and the realization she was too broken, even if she ever did see her loved ones again.
Peter had nearly given up on finding his true mate, but a mission to rescue a pack member’s sister leads him to Rosalia. If he’d known why she’d been impossible to locate, he would have left the pack in his beta’s care and moved mountains to save her sooner.
He must find the strength to rein in his wolf’s need to claim her and give her the necessary space to heal. Her body, heart, and wolf are at odds, with merely a thin string keeping her tattered spirit from coming apart. Can Rosalia learn to trust Peter, or are the jagged, invisible scars too deep?

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book.

I LOVED PETER!!  I mean I have loved him since meeting him in the Broderick series.  You do not have to read the Broderick series to read this book OR the following books in the series BUT I highly suggest it so you understand the relationships.

Peter…he is the best alpha.  He loves his pack and those he deems pack like the witches in the Broderick coven.  He is fierce in protecting those he loves.  He is happy with his life, but he yearns for his mate.  He is happy for Brandy and her siblings but…yeah why can’t he find HERE!!!  Our calm cool alpha is outta his mind lately and he is not sure WHY. He can’t focus and is just hot tempered which is not Peter.  When the pack and the coven go to save some women, he is beyond mad to see his mate there…in the room of abused and battered women AND a sister to Claudia.

Rosalie is the brave one of the group.  She has done lots of things that many would find disgusting to survive abuse and horrors.  When she realizes they are being rescued and its by her sister, she is overjoyed and then…..she sees him.  The large wolf is her mate. She is scared given she has seen how alpha tend to treat women.

Rosie and Peter have a lot to overcome but Peter becomes more the man we know and love.  He is doing everything to make sure she knows she is safe and wanted no matter what she as been through.  He is doing everything to put her at ease to him and his caring.  The waters these two navigate was pretty wicked at times but Peter never faulters.  GUYS I loved him even more!!!  GAH!!  PETER!!!

I am so excited for this series and absolutely love that the Brodericks are just as front and center in this series as Peter’s pack was in their story.  But I really wanna know whats up with Xander but Lea and Joel!! EEEEP!!!!

I cannot wait!!
