#WOTR24 #SeriesStarter #AgeGap #GrumpySunshine – Whispers of Timber Creek, Timber Creek Series book 1 by S.J. Chaynie

Being relocated to a small-town PD in Colorado was the last thing I needed. Being assigned to babysit the captain’s daughter didn’t help either. She’s quirky, young, and unfortunately, the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. Cap only has one rule. Keep my hands to myself. Turns out to be harder than it looks. Now I live in her house, and at night I hear her cries. She’s haunted by her dreams just like I’m haunted by my past. She may be crazy, or she may be the only key to unlocking the dark secrets of this town. The clock is ticking, and the closer we get, the more dangerous it becomes. We both heard the captain’s warning loud and clear……too bad neither of us listened.

Book 1 of the Timber Creek Series. Series will contain interconnected standalones.

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

I met this author after I saw a TikTok of hers about a different series.  I am so thankful she has allowed me to read that series and is giving me her new series to read as well.

This is a great series starter with some amazing characters we meet.  I admit as much as I LOVED the main H/h in this book, book 2’s couple has me clawing to read their story.  I mean I messaged the author to say NOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW.  She even agreed with me about their story being a great read to come.

Ok so this series starts with Jace in the shrink’s office not wanting to admit how he is feeling about the death of his partner and best friend.  He is reassigned to a small town for 3 months to get his stuff together essentially.  He goes to the town and immediately sees Camille.  He gets the official “Hands off” by her dad…ya know…his new boss the Captain of the force.  Unfortunately, circumstances will force them to be thrown together 24/7 which makes hands off near impossible.

Camille is having a hard time.  She knows what people think of her and she is a broken women thanks to her ex-boyfriend, Stuart.  She is attracted to the new detective until he talks.  Then his mouth makes her remember what a jerk he is.  LOL

This story has a LOT of chemistry. The slow burn of Jace and Camille is HAWT.  LAWD, when they finally crash and combust, loooook out!!!

The side story of the missing girls is a low theme in the story until its not.  Then we are running to figure out who, what, and why of what is happening.  I admit I was so wrapped up in the Jace and Cami when I realized what was happening, I was like RUN FASTER!!! Get going!!!!!

But Easton and Ellie….I cannot wait!!

S.J. Chaynie is a small-town Texas girl who has found a love for writing. She enjoys writing romance, with a sprinkle of suspense, and a little humor. If she is not busy writing her newest ideas, she is spending time with her husband and two beautiful daughters. She believes a good book and a lot of laughs is the best medicine. She brings suspense, love, angst, and sometimes the occasional heartbreak to her stories. Always a HEA, but every character and story she holds close to her heart and hopes they touch yours as well.

Review by Twinsie Angie

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

EASTON!!!  GAH!! I don’t know how many times I was messaging the author is regards to my boyfriend.  I am not a person who highlights stuff but there were so many amazing lines from him to Elle…..I melted so many times.  Like I love him so freaking much!!

Ok so you get that I loved the book right???  Now this is the 2nd book in the series but trust me what I say you don’t need to read book 1 to get this book.  I will say you totally need to read it because we see the Easton/Elle dance and well it made me totally love him before I read this book.

Easton is one of the town police officers who has loved Elle his entire life.  He can’t imagine not having her around and right when he gets the nerve to tell her…he makes an epic mistake and ruins it all. Elle has had a crap life.  She finally gets things in order and opens up to Easton and then…..GROWL

I loved Easton and Elle.  The dance they do the whole book is amazing.  They both want the other, but Elle is being stubborn annnd yes she has the right to be but…gesh Elle!!!  Easton knows he messed up and will do anything to get his girl to admit she wants to be with him too.

The banter and chemistry is so good. His zingers to get her attention made me laugh so many times. But guys…..omg the charity auction…..lets just say I saw Easton in a whole new light!!  MMMMMMM  Yes I liked it too.

This book has me glued to it and I was not happy when I had to put it down. I read it so fast I feel like I need to reread it to enjoy it all over again!!!

Review by: Twinsie Melinda

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

First off this is a new to me author and I can absolutely tell you I will be reading more of her books.  I could not put this one down.  It had me turning the pages like crazy I did not want to set this one down.  There was so many twist that I didn’t see coming.

Elle and Easton were childhood friends but as they grew Elle felt something more for Easton. When things were headed towards something more than just friends the rug was pulled out from beneath Elle. Just like any other time in her life when things were going well something happened that turned her world upside down. Four years later and Easton was determined to make Elle his. When the stars started to line up for him, he jumped at the chance to try to make her his.

I loved Elle and Easton the chemistry between them was thick. To watch them was like spinning magnets on a table repelling when they don’t line up but when they connect OH BOY do these two connect.  Let me just say charity auction. I enjoyed the side characters also and I like getting to know them a bit.  I need to go back and read the first book and I am on pins and needles waiting for the next book.

Minx Marksman—daughter of a Supermodel and a famous Rocker—wants nothing more than a normal, crazy-free life. One more nannying gig will earn her enough to achieve her dream of small cottage on the coast. That last job brings her to Nocturne Falls where she’s surprised to find out it’s Halloween every day.

Not so much on the normal, but high on the adorable.

Baby Gus and Uncle Hottie—aka Tim Johnson—seem to be a walk in the park at first. The flirty infant and the nerdy, glasses-wearing cutie grab her heart from the start. She’s falling fast for both guys, but she can’t help but notice that some things aren’t quite what they seem…

Review by Twinsie Angie

I bought this audiobook.

I have been devouring Bria’s backlist and when I saw this one, I said why not!!  I mean its paranormal = my jam. It’s a novella = Quick read.  It’s audio = YEEESSSS!!!  I love audio and the narration for the story was ok.  BJ wasn’t my favorite, but he wasn’t the worst by any stretch.  I like I just am obsessed by Brittany who narrated her other books so switching seemed just WRONG!!

Minx, the new nanny, Gus, the adorable baby, annnnd Tim, the nerdy uncle, are the cast in this sweet novella.  Minx is hired to help new uncle Tim take care of Gus.  I haven’t read any of the Nocturne Falls Universe so I don’t know how they are but this one was hilarious.  Bria writes some of the best crazy characters.  This story is another great one.

Minx and Tim are just trying to figure this nanny gig out but someone is not about to let them escape the love bug.  I loved the story and it was a great Sunday afternoon drive audio book.  It was a couple hours long and perfect for anyone who loves a great HEA filled with hilarious storylines.

Bria Quinlan is an award-nominated bestselling author of eight Romantic Comedies and YA Issue Books (that she swears are funny…really. They are.) Her books make you snort Diet Coke out your nose or tear up and curse her name.

#BookPromo – Double Release by Bella Emy

MADDOX

There’s nothing that can tear my best friend and me apart.
We have a brotherly bond that no chick will ever be able to come between.

But everything changes the night I meet her—Adelyn Pierce.
She’s like a whirlwind, and I can’t stop thinking about her.

I have to make her mine.

The next day, I’m happy to hear from Rick that he’s met someone as well.
After all, what is better than both my best friend and I finding a new honey to crush on?

But when Rick and I talk about our encounters, there’s something that sounds oddly familiar about his new friend.
The moment Rick introduces me to his friend, I’m stunned to see Adelyn—she’s the same girl I’ve been into.

I don’t know what I’m going to do now.

ADELYN

The night of Tommy’s party, I met two wonderful guys…
One, Rick, is sweet, caring, and I can see a great friend in him.
The other, Maddox, is intense, and I want more with him.

But I’m torn.

When I discover that the guy I want as a friend is interested in taking our friendship to the next level, I don’t know what to do.

The situation becomes even more complicated when I realize that Rick’s best friend in the entire world is Maddox—the guy who’s been consuming my thoughts.
My heart feels torn between friendship and something deeper, and I have no idea how I’m going to get myself out of this one.

USA Today Bestselling Author, Bella Emy’s Freed is a short prequel to Imprisoned. It is a captivating journey of love, friendship, and the tangled emotions that arise when two hearts vie for the same affection. Follow the intertwined lives of Maddox and Adelyn as they grapple with the complexities of their feelings, and discover if love can break free from the shadows of friendship.

Freed should be read before Imprisoned, but both may be read as a standalone if desired.

I met her first.
I loved her first.
But my best friend swept her away, and since then, my heart’s been imprisoned.

I promised myself I would let my feelings for her go, let all of her go, and let them live their happily ever after.

But now he’s gone, and I’m left picking up the fractured pieces of her broken heart.
Suddenly, my life’s been derailed, thrown off course, off track.
I promised myself I wouldn’t let my feelings for her come surfacing back.

But seeing her again?

I don’t know if I can keep that promise.
She’s thrown me off the path I set forth for my imprisoned heart.
But now, am I forced to break that promise I made to myself so long ago?


Bella Emy’s Imprisoned is a steamy second chance contemporary romance written in the Imprisoned Hearts series.

With her past firmly behind her where it belongs, Juliette has made a career out of turning her scars into art. She uses her skills to help others cover the evidence of their pain, too.

Juliette has everything she could ever need–great parents, her dream job, the best friend a girl could ask for, and a new body to warm her bed whenever she wants. With her focus firmly on the here and now, she never expects a kiss from a stranger to throw a bomb in the middle of her carefully constructed life.

Every wound leaves a scar.
Every scar tells a story.
Her story left her beautifully scarred.

HUNGRY LIKE THE WULFF

CRAZY LIKE THE FOX

VOLATILE AS THE DAY WAS LONG

Rainer Wulff was perfectly fine with leading an eternal life in solitary, at least he thought he was, until Jarod Fox broke into his home and his life.

There was something about the fox that intrigued the wolf, though it was mostly on the surface.

Jarod was crass, ill-educated and arrogant, whereas Rainer was more reserved, intelligent and gracious. The wolf regretting making the fox his eternal mate, never considering that Jarod’s bad behavior only heightened when he became a vampire.

Even though they were polar opposites, there was nothing they wouldn’t do for one another.

Well, just about anything.
