#WOTR #Review – Find: Project Xol (Book 3) by Audrey Kaye/Amabel Daniels

Leave a comment

Armed with data they don’t know what to do with, Cassidy and Luke struggle to escape the invincible recruits from Project Xol. Desperate for help, Cassidy strives to locate a safe place for Luke to recover. There’s no time to fall into a false sense of security—not when she’s wanted for alleged murder. She needs to protect her father’s intel from zealous scientists and to figure out a way to avoid the law. Trust doesn’t come easily for Luke, but he must have faith in Cassidy when he’s too wounded to protect her. Even though they have limited options on the run, he hopes they’ve found an unexpected ally in a rural location. Too high of hopes, it seems, because they’re only pushed closer to law. Captured, Luke reaches out to his brother for help. But could that one call be all it takes for the leader of Project Xol to finish him? Find is the third book of the Project Series, which continues in Stolen.

Review by Twinsie Kelly

Holy, I don’t even know what to say! Book 3 starts exactly where book 2 ends. Literally….BANG!

I have no clue how these two keep going on, but they do. Luke is hurt bad and Cassidy has to get help, and fast. Zero, thank the gods for Zero, gets her on a path, and she finds a helpful hand. But even this helpful hand doesn’t last long. They have fallen into a bizarro mad scientist war and they were just innocent bystanders a week ago. Chaos is a constant and it is sucking them dry. However, everything that was before Project Xol just doesn’t seem important anymore. Their relationship is getting stronger. But they can both be their own worst enemy when it comes to their relationship. Each one, with good reason, questions their feelings because of the constant chaos. Is it real? Is it because they are constantly being hunted? Do they only need each other right now? They hardly know each other, but there is sooooooo much chemistry!!!!!!!

***small spoiler alert*** THEY KISS!!!!!!!

There is so much going on all the time. And so many twists! You don’t really know who to trust, when to sleep, can you go outside, will he kiss me again? (yes, he does)

You really should stop reading this review and just read Find. And as soon as you finish Find, skip reading my review for STOLEN because you will just need to read it too like I did. 😊

From the celebrated and bestselling author of The Banker’s Wife, worlds collide when an FBI agent investigates a string of grisly murders on Long Island that raises the impossible question: What happens when the primary suspect is your father?

FBI Agent Nell Flynn hasn’t been home in ten years. Nell and her father, Homicide Detective Martin Flynn, have never had much of a relationship. And Suffolk County will always be awash in memories of her mother, Marisol, who was brutally murdered when Nell was just seven.

When Martin Flynn dies in a motorcycle accident, Nell returns to the house she grew up in so that she can spread her father’s ashes and close his estate. At the behest of her father’s partner, Detective Lee Davis, Nell becomes involved in an investigation into the murders of two young women in Suffolk County. The further Nell digs, the more likely it seems to her that her father should be the prime suspect–and that his friends on the police force are covering his tracks. Plagued by doubts about her mother’s murder–and her own role in exonerating her father in that case–Nell can’t help but ask questions about who killed Ria Ruiz and Adriana Marques and why. But she may not like the answers she finds–not just about those she loves, but about herself.

#review #suspence These Silent Woods by Kimi Cunningham Grant

Leave a comment


No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world. For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that’s exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he’s got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her—and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.

The only people who know they exist are a mysterious local hermit named Scotland, and Cooper’s old friend, Jake, who visits each winter to bring them food and supplies. But this year, Jake doesn’t show up, setting off an irreversible chain of events that reveals just how precarious their situation really is. Suddenly, the boundaries of their safe haven have blurred—and when a stranger wanders into their woods, Finch’s growing obsession with her could put them all in danger. After a shocking disappearance threatens to upend the only life Finch has ever known, Cooper is forced to decide whether to keep hiding—or finally face the sins of his past.

Vividly atmospheric and masterfully tense, These Silent Woods is a poignant story of survival, sacrifice, and how far a father will go when faced with losing it all.

#Review – #0.5 Zodiac Academy: Origins of an Academy Bully by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti

Leave a comment

Dark magic is forbidden at Zodiac Academy. That’s why I hide it so well.

But now I’m supposed to mentor Darius Acrux: the son of the most ruthless Dragon Shifter in Solaria. If he’s caught using blood magic, he’ll lose his claim to the throne.

The problem is? Our families are up to something, and we’re determined to find out what.

No matter what dark power we must turn to…

Welcome to Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny. As the Fae of the future, you will soon learn the merciless way to claim your power. Life among the Vampires, Shifters and Sirens is no easy ride, but if you can make it through your exams, you might just be able to harness your inner strength and earn your place among the elite.

***This is a prequel novella set five years before Zodiac Academy: The Awakening, Book 1 in the Zodiac Academy series.***

When I started this series, I didn’t realize there were so many books and that it should be read in a certain order. Thankfully, I haven’t missed much but it was nice going back to the beginning to find out how Lance and Darius’s bond formed. Darius’s father is still a monster and I loathe him even more now. It was also nice to see how Lance was completely different compared to now (I’m on book 3 of the series). Looks I’ll have to go back and read the one told by the boys too.

This novella introduces us to the dark magic you hear Lance talk about later on. If you read this one first, you will get spoilers. So I actually liked reading book 1 and 2 first and then going back to read this one. I think I’ll like that for the boys book too. It’s such a big world and I’m so looking forward to reading all of these books. I also can’t wait to get them in paperback because I know I’ll want to read them again and again.

Everyone at Ryder High knows what it means to have a teal envelope taped to their locker on the first day of the month.

Quinn Maguire has her sights set on one thing, and one thing only: softball.

After a disaster last season left her injured, she’s determined to come back better than ever and prove herself.

Her plans are slightly altered when she gets a teal envelope on her locker. She won’t let it distract her from her plans, though. If it does, she’ll quit the secret admirer game before she loses softball.

But when her admirer sends her on a chase across town to find geocaches, she’s confused. None of the clues make sense to her.

And days before her first game, she finds herself back where she was last year—on the bench.

Now Quinn needs to figure out what is actually most important to her– softball or the people in her life who love her?

Quinn has one thing on her mind at all times softball she eats, sleeps and breathes the game 24/7, but she gets thrown for a loop when she gets the famous teal envelope right at the beginning of softball season. but she couldn’t turn down the challenge so with school, practice, gym time and extra time at the batting cages, she now had to find out clues to who this mystery guy could be. thankfully the guy understood that softball was first, so he was making it fun and semi easy for Quinn to get clues around her schedule Geocaching was the name of the game and its going to be a wild ride. Will Quinn be able to find clues while focusing on the game she loves or will she be forced to quit the game and accept defeat.

Violet isn’t giving up without a fight, with her siblings, friends, and boyfriend by her side she’s determined to find a cure to turn Xaden back from being a venin and also find her dragon’s family the 7th kind. is she the key to unlocking all this new at Basigath or is it the end. so many tears, heartbreaks and another cliffhanger to leave you wondering where the rest of the story is. this was a great climax of the series, and it was difficult to put all the words together for the review.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book.

I was looking for a few quick reads over Spring Break and the author suggested this book for me.  I read the blurb and thought it sounded adorable…I mean crushing on your brother’s best friend and while he marries your best friend.  I mean that has gotta be good.  Then you see there will be drama and someone trying to ruin the wedding…yep I needed to read this book.

Kat has always had a crush on Owen since she was 10.  Little did she know that he also had a crush on her.    The story starts with Kat and Owen being transported by boat to the big manor of the wedding.  They soon are thrown together with the bridal couple and a few other characters to enjoy the weekend before the wedding.

Slowly Kat and Owen are pushing together when Kat notices that there is some shifty stuff happening.  The story of who was ruining the wedding was pretty wild and seeing Kat confront the people/person was great.  The story of Owen and Kat was a sweet read.  When Owen was slowly telling Kat about her 10th birthday party I was laughing.

The epilogue was another perfect ending to the story.

Amanda Zook has been an avid romance reader since middle school and has finally decided to liberate the stories that live in her head. After growing up in the Sweetest Place on Earth (Hershey, Pennsylvania) she attended college at a small liberal arts school where she met the love of her life. They spent the first 20 years of their marriage on the Jersey Shore (no, not the MTV reality show), before moving halfway across the country.

Amanda now lives in the Southwest corner of the mitten state on the shores of Lake Michigan (no sharks, no salt, no problem).

She is a wife, a mother of teenage twin girls (even though she is aghast that her children dislike reading and pizza) and can now add published author to her list of achievements.

I purchased this book.

I grabbed this book when I saw the first two books are by authors who will be at a book event I am going to be attending.  When I read the description of it, I was loving the whole 2nd chance story because she doesn’t love a 2nd chance to redeem themselves or two find love.  Any who…..

I loved Merryn from JUMP!!  She was sassy but kind.  She was all about helping the small town while also staying a bit mum about her past due to the gossip and all that small town jazz.  She was just relatable.  She always wondered about the shy and kind man who entered her shop every single day at 11:00 for one of her egg salad sandwiches.  He smelled of “Iowa Money”…read and you will understand…but always treated him with compassion and kindness even when her staff found him to be a bit old and creepy.

Austin has always had a bit of a crush on Merryn but given his job and what the town gossiped about him, he figured he would never have a chance.  The fact he lives on a farm with multiple roommates who gossip more then the ladies in town doesn’t seem like a mature adult.

When Austin comes to Merryn’s aid, they notice the spark and start the flirt.  Flirting starts to become a conversation and we soon see the couple starting to form “more”.    The scene about their first time….Legit stitches.  STITCHES!!!!  But I love love love the banter between these two adults.  They both have been through hell and are not being anyone but themselves.

Of course, life happens and we start to see outer forces coming into play.  The couple begin to miscommunicate but still trust the other but also wonder IF they would be better off without????

I gotta stay I loved this story and would love to read more especially about Hank or Darryl because they were hilarious!!!

When her anxiety over adulthood rears its ugly head, Layla is drawn to Phin’s free-wheeling lifestyle—no strings, no roots. Work a simple job during the day and hustle pool at night. Phin, however, has spent years working toward the life Layla has. He’s desperate to settle down, grow some roots, and walk away from his nomadic life.

Can he convince Layla to gamble on forever with him?

Review by Twinsie Angie

I purchased this book.

I was looking for some quick reads and the author told me about this one.  I loved the fact the girl was nerdy and wore fun Star Wars shirts that people didn’t understand.  This is my husband 100%.

I love a good novella because we know there will be a HEA and most are pretty much “Boy and girl meet, have some laughs, and then fall in love.”  This book started pretty traditional and then switched a bit.  The characters meet and fall but then split and look out because a woman scorned is never a good thing.  LOL

Layla and Phin meet and have some attraction.  They both are not facing all the things in their lives and are kind of hiding while having fun with the other.  When things get a little too deep, Phin pushed Layla away in the most douche of ways…hence why she becomes a woman scorned.

Layla is not one to back down from a challenge and does all she can to prove that the things Phin said about her were not true.  So, when they see each other a few months later, she is hell bent on making him pay for breaking her heart.

I liked the story but would have liked to know more about Phin’s back story.  Because it was kinda wild what we did learn.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

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

I absolutely love this series!! I have been a fan since she released book 3 so I have been here for the long haul.

King has been a fun character to get to know through the series.  I always wondered who his mate would be, and Amara is the perfect person especially since she is Joey’s aunt aka King’s friend.

This series we get a lot more Realm information and maybe see a possible new fear for Daniel and also maybe a MATE???  I kinda wanna know more about her.  But back to King…..King and Amara have amazing chemistry and the fact that Joey is down with his aunt and his friend is even better.

We learn about Golden Blood and how not good this is but could be good but right now it is not good.  LOL There is always a new story line or plot that Teresa gives to us to keep the series fresh.  I mean 28 book in a series is a lot but trust me when I say it is an amazing series to jump into.  There are so many things in the storyline that I can’t wait for the next warrior book and also the Mate’s book because Becky has some stuff going on and your girl needs to know ASAP!
