This review is for Mary Martel – Charmed
I received this book from the author for an honest review.
This was a great quick read and I would love more of this would and clover and her guards.
Clover took off as a teen left everything and everyone she knew. She was the Alpha’s daughter and wheat she endured she felt would have crumbled the pack. After being away for several years she feels the called to take her place as Alpha.
Upon arriving home Clover realizes a few things. First, her pack still loves her and still has her back. Not only do they have her back but her daughter, Rosie’s too. Her dad knew she would return and placed three men as her guards.
There was instant chemistry between Clover and the three guards. Gunn, Price and Black have known Clover was the one before she ever arrived home. I enjoyed reading about this pack not only Clover, Rosie, and the guys but also her aunt Layla. I loved that Rosie nicknamed Black the silver one and wrapped all three of them around her little finger. This was an enjoyable read but really would like more.
Favorite Quote:
Losing a parent lift a hole inside your chest that never healed, no matter how often you tried to plug it up. The pain faded in time, but it never fully went away. Some memory would crop up out of the blue and hit you right in the feels. Next thing you knew, your ass would be on the floor bleeding form an invisible wound.

Rocky Mountain Meltdown by Harley Easton
This was a sweet and quick read. The story is about an author who along with her rival are checked into a ski resort for the weekend of writing and working.
Tessa is none to thrilled for the burly lumberjack, Bryce, who seems to keep judging her but is thankful for the hot as heck ski instructor, Kevin….or is she.
It seems our burly and grumpy lumberjack has a few secrets in the closet in regard to Tessa and her writing.
The story made me laugh at the antics of our rival author because who doesn’t love to see an enemy get their much deserved paybacks! But seeing the connection between Bryce and Tessa develop and the ending chapter was a sweet ending to the story.
Off-Season by Marie Piper
This story was probably my favorite of the set of stories.
Eva was left her uncle’s diner in a small rafting town. Eva is quite happy to live her life in solitude because she doesn’t feel she is good enough to be with the person she really desires. Her fear and insecurity make her push him away at every turn.
Charlie is the owner of the main rafting group in the area and he is head over heals for Eva. He has no idea what he did in the past to make her run but he is dead set on claiming her for the new year.
The couple have major issues because Eva thinks so many wrong things about Charlie is doesn’t really believe him when he tells her the truth. When a scary situation with Charlie makes Eva run to help him, she slow opens her heart to what he might be….a really good guy.
I really enjoyed seeing Eva open up to Charlie and seeing him help her overcome some of her insecurities within herself.

What he doesn’t expect is for KJ Beshter to arrive in his shop bearing a gift card Thomas’s daughter cast a spell on. Thomas has met her handsome magic-sensitive teacher before, but now that Star is moving up a grade, he can cross that line. It would be perfect timing if something wicked didn’t want to sink its claws into KJ too….

Now it’s time let the vampiric urges he so tightly controls run wild and take advantage of his monster hall pass to feed on criminals. But when fae prince Rykoff of Harlow interrupts Hugh feeding, he catches Hugh’s daughter’s scent and vows to avenge the fae youngling he believes Hugh has captured.
Hugh had no idea his daughter wasn’t human, and it rocks the foundation of his world. He must convince Rykoff that the fae youngling in question is safe with her vampire dad and can prosper in the mortal realm—or risk losing her forever.
WOLF AT FIRST SIGHT BY RHYS FORD
SFPD Lieutenant Joseph Zanetti has spent years protecting his city, and from the looks of St. Connal’s Pub and its bad-boy owner, Levi Keller, the place is a hotspot for trouble and violence. Joe’s problem? Levi is delectably hot, with secrets Joe can’t wait to dig into.
As a Peacekeeper for paranormals, wolf shifter Levi doesn’t need the complication of a hot cop sniffing around his pub when he’s just sent his teen son off to summer camp. He’s busy brokering a peace agreement between two warring factions. When Joe stumbles into Levi’s world, both plunge into a situation neither one of them was ready for—falling in love.
ELF SHOT BY TA MOORE
All Conri wanted was to drop his kid off at Changeling camp, find the nearest halfway nice hotel, and enjoy a week of uncomplicated debauchery. It should be simple. It doesn’t work out that way.
When a local girl disappears, the neighborhood quickly lays blame at the well-guarded gates of the camp. With his son incriminated, a mystery to solve, and a malevolent pocket of the Otherworld to navigate, Conri will need all the help he can get—even if it does come from a distractingly pretty, tightly wound Iron Door agent who doesn’t trust Conri to be on the right side.
Head: Bonus scene: Trying not to vamp out at a PTA meeting
Thanks for joining me on today’s tour stop for the Bad, Dad, and Dangerous anthology. I teamed up with Rhys Ford, Jenn Moffatt, and TA Moore to imagine a world where dads who spend most of the year doting on their kids–baking cupcakes for the PTA and restraining their baser urges–can let their hair down for a few weeks while their kids are at summer camp and embrace their inner monsters.
I introduced my character Hugh from Monster Hall Pass at my last tour stop, and gave readers a taste of his interactions with his daughter, Ruby. Today I’m going to share a bonus scene that gives you a seat at the PTA meeting he references in the excerpt in my last post. Because it’s got to be hard to be an energy vampire on a good day–and any day you’re at a PTA meeting is most certainly not a good day.
Bonus prequel scene to Monster Hall Pass:
“I don’t care if you’re going to be recovering from surgery, Lila, you’re the chair of the games committee. You have to be at International Games Night.”
Hugh’s mouth watered as he breathed in the spicy scent of Lila’s anger. It was surprisingly nuanced, considering who it was coming from. He’d been on several PTA committees with Lila over the years, and the woman had never been anything but kind and accommodating. Too accommodating, in his opinion. Which is why the PTA president seemed to have no problem insisting she come run the school’s games night fundraiser a week after she scheduled to have major surgery.
“I won’t even be able to stand unassisted at that point, Beverly. I’m happy to help organize everything I can before the fundraiser, but I can’t be there in person to help that night.”
Hugh fought the urge to take a deep breath and savor the anger and irritation that was building in the room. PTA meetings were always an exercise in self control for an energy vampire like him. He fed off negative emotions, and any gathering that involved Beverly was guaranteed to have the auras of half the parents in the room lit up like Vegas.
“I’m happy to oversee the games the night of the festival,” Hugh chimed in, cursing himself for volunteering as soon as the words crossed his lips.
He was already in charge of organizing food trucks for the event, and he’d gotten his own tongue lashing from Beverly earlier in the meeting because he hadn’t managed to book the kinds of food she thought they should have. Beverly had ridiculously out-of-touch ideas considering this was a games night fundraiser at an elementary school. He doubted there’d be much demand for tapas or the weird raclette truck that he could smell from a mile away, but he’d majorly scored and the Kona Ice truck was going to kick back a percentage of sales to the PTA.
“If Lila wants to keep her position as fundraising chair on the board she’ll attend herself,” Beverly snapped.
Hugh shot Lila an apologetic glance, nearly swallowing his tongue at the way her aura glowed. He’d heard of being incandescent with rage, but she actually was. Her normally peaceful aura was shot through with reds and blacks that he normally associated with rapists and murderers. That was interesting.
But it wasn’t doing good things for his hunger. He needed to feed, and not at the PTA meeting. As much as he’d love to literally suck the meanspirited wind out of Beverly’s sails, he couldn’t risk exposing his vampiric nature or putting his daughter at risk.
So he settled for sneaking his phone out under the table and shooting off a quick text to the babysitter who was with Ruby right now.
Something came up. Any chance you can keep Ruby overnight? I’ll pay you double your rate.
He tried his best not to feed around home, but if he didn’t deal with this hunger spike soon he could seriously slip up. And as much as he could ill afford to pay a fool’s ransom to the babysitter to keep Ruby, he also couldn’t afford to lay waste to the PTA.
No matter how much that bitch Beverly deserved it.

Review by Twinsie Tenise for Monster Hall Pass by: Bru Baker
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️4 STARS⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I received a copy of this book from the author. This is my honest review. Hugh is raising his adopted daughter on his own. He can’t wait to drop her off at summer camp. Its his one time a year, to take care of his own needs. You see, Hugh is a vampire, and he needs to feed. Rykoff is in the human world on a mission of his own when he comes across Hugh. Things with the 2 of them start off rocky due to Rykoff’s preconceived notions. The 2 of them must work together to save the day. The question is– will they be able to set their differences aside to get the job done? Monster Hall Pass was a quick, fun read within the Bad, Dad, and Dangerous Anthology. I enjoyed the story. Bru Baker is a new to me author but I will definitely be reading more books from her after finishing this one.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.
I have always been interested in Ryder after meeting him in a Meadows book. I gotta say he did not disappoint. We knew he loved his sisters, family, and friends. We know he loves his country and serves proudly in the military. But getting to KNOW him was amazing even if this was a little tease before the real story happens.
Clara was a great addition to the family we have all come to love. She fits in with the rest of the strong women in the families. Her love of The Dove Project and the women it serves plus the people who run it shows. She takes pride in what she will soon bring to the program herself after school.
The duo is a perfect match in so many ways. They are both independent and strong people, but both are looking for someone to love them for who they are.
Their date and morning following the date sets up for what will be a strong relationship. The ending chapter is setting the stage for all they will need to overcome to achieve all they both want in the future novel.

Twinsie Jo’s Review:
Well this anthology is definitely not for the faint of heart. While I was one of the contributing authors, I decided to read the rest of the stories and wow. Just wow. I gasped so many times, I lost count. I’m a huge fan of horror movies and I love horror stories just as much but these stories blew me away.
If you love horror stories, this is definitely the anthology for you! I even messaged Emery LeeAnn after finishing her story, Stella, and asked her for more. If you loved the movie, “I Spit On Your Grave”, you’ll like this little book.
These stories are gruesome and have people getting revenge in the most depraved way possible.
Enjoy and happy reading! Oh and don’t forget to turn on the lights.
