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

How does Brandy L. Rivers do it every time I read a book I think this is the best one yet and then she writes another one.  The connection between Bran and Evangeline is like no other.  The side characters are amazing too.

Evangeline knows there is something between her and Bran but she just cannot give in to her feelings.  She has lived with betrayal, deceit, and abuse by the ones that should love her the most. Bran has set his feelings for Evangeline aside because of his love for his wife. Now three years after his wife’s death and no longing being able to deny the fact that Evangeline is his mate he acts on his feelings. Due to Evangeline loyalty for her sister she agrees to leave town on her and Bran’s first date to check on her sister. However, her father has other plans when she arrives and could cost her Bran.

This story grabbed me and drug me in making me want to find out more and more what was going to happen next. The world that Brandy was able to build with this was amazing. What wasn’t there to like there was werewolf’s, werelynx, dream walkers, witches, and more. Plus there were strong females, alpha males, fight scenes wow does Brandy have a way with these things. I have not found a series of Brandy’s that I do not like so far and this one is headed right to the top. I cannot wait to see what she has in store for me to read next.

A few of my favorites:

Sighing, she huffed. “I make my own destiny. I only want to get back to the man I’m falling in love

“I don’t need someone just like her. I need someone just for me. That’s all.”

And she knew, beyond a doubt, he would value her, worship her, make a life with her. He would ask her opinion, ensure her safety, protect her with his own life.

“Why me?” “So many reasons, my love. I’ve been drawn to you since we were kids.” “I was too afraid of our attraction.” He lifted a shoulder. “You aren’t now, and that’s all that matters. I’ll do everything in my power to protect you and show you all the things you’ve been missing all your life.”

#WOTR18 #Review – Bearly Safe (Texan Bears) – Anya Breton

Bearly Safe (Texan Bears Book 1)

Attending a co-worker’s Halloween party dressed as a sexy fairy was the worst decision Shelby Maxwell made all week. That is until she lets her temper get the best of her in front of Dallas’s finest and ends up in the back of a police cruiser. Too bad the gorgeous jerk responsible for her bad behavior didn’t have the sense to avoid the police, himself.

When someone shoots up the party, the gorgeous jerk, Nick Kang, sprouts fur, explodes out of the police cruiser, and saves the day. Nick’s jerk streak continues as he leaves Shelby to explain what happened.

After her name is released to the press, a penitent Nick arrives to protect Shelby from the killer’s mafia associates. Close quarter guarding leads to close quarter groping and a little more intimacy than Shelby is prepared for. But it may be time to put her past behind her and accept far more than the safety Nick offers.

Goodreads

I so enjoyed this read it had me turning pages to see what Shelby would say next.  She doesn’t hold back. What kind of girl is Shelby well let me just say when she goes to Halloween party where she dressed as a fairy, and not in the Tinker Bell fairy kind of way, when she runs in to the biggest jerk ever Nick and we see her personality shine. What’s a girl to do when being treated like this she lets loose and finds herself in the back of a police cruiser with the Jerk. Thinking her biggest issue is going to jail only things go terribly wrong and she finds herself in a strange and unbelievable predicament.  Just when she thought no biggie I will never see him again she is pulled out on a double date with her bestie only to find she is face to face with the Halloween party Jerk. Now that she finds herself in the center of danger Nick takes it upon himself to protect her. Nick has found his one but Shelby has no idea what that entails only that she is up for a little fun but when Nick has to bring in back up she finds her life may have to take a change of course.  Is she ready for that? Can she be what Nick needs?

I loved seeing Nick and Shelby’s personalities show when they are with one another.  Shelby had me chuckling and turning the pages to see what was going to happen next. Not only did I enjoy Shelby and Nick but I also found myself wanting to know more about the side characters also. I enjoyed this book and cannot wait to read more of this series.

Anya Breton is a web monkey with an obsession for nail polish and rubber chickens. Her fears include Peeps and people who hate clowns. Her genres include erotic romance, urban fantasy, and young adult—all with a little quirk. She lives in the Midwest where land is cheap and corn is cheaper.

 

 

#WOTR #NewRelease #Review – Numb (King’s Harlots MC, #4) by J.M. Walker

Numb (King's Harlots MC, #4)

“An unexpected evil brings both the MC and Military world together in this brand new series by J.M. Walker”

He doesn’t remember.
In the beginning, women and alcohol were one in the same. Until he met her.
The pain and heartache he caused her died when he was shot and fell into a coma.
Waking up is the only way he can get back to Maxine Stanton while she does everything she can to push him away.

She hates him.
Every fiber of her being loathes the man she fell in love with but she can’t control her heart and wants him just the same.
When Dale Michaels finally wakes up, she realizes they need to end this once and for all, before it destroys them both.

When an unexpected source rips through what they’ve worked hard to maintain, only then do they realize the full potential of their love.

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

This book took me on an emotion rollercoaster JM Walker has a way of jarring the emotions from me. I have to say the opening of this book had me hooked and the ending had me choked up. Lives change in the blink of an eye can Max and Dale find a way to deal with the changes. What happens when evil reaches your loved one and tortures them?

Max the VP of her MC has dealt with having her heart torn out by the one she loved the most now is dealing with the loss of her baby girl and now the person responsible for her hurt is laying in a coma. Max cannot let Dale in again not with the way he treated her heart the last time.

When Dale does wake up from the coma he cannot remember all the hurt he caused Max but tries to figure out why she being this way toward him. Max cannot let him in again not with the way he treated her heart the last time. See when someone has never been loved he gets scared when he has it and doesn’t know how to deal with it. Dale shows us a sweet side of the a$$ of a man.

There wasn’t much verbal communication between Max and Dale but they did have some numbing sex scenes. To watch what Max and Dale endured in the past and now is painful and how can they overcome all that has occurred. Everything Max and Dale went through had my heart bleeding for them. I cannot image what is going to happen in the rest of this series and I for one cannot wait to read it.

J.M. Walker is an Amazon bestselling author who loves all things books, pigs and lip gloss. She is happily married to the man who inspires all of her Heroes and continues to make her weak in the knees every single day.

#Review – Shade’s Lady (Reapers MC 6.5) by Joanna Wylde

33293941

New York Times bestselling author Joanna Wylde returns to the world of the Reapers Motorcycle Club…

Looking back, none of this would’ve happened if I hadn’t dropped my phone in the toilet. I mean, I could’ve walked away from him if I’d had it with me.

Or maybe not.

Maybe it was all over the first time he saw me, and he would’ve found another way. Probably—if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that Shade always gets what he wants, and apparently he wanted me.

Right from the first.

Goodreads

Amazon

I have a soft spot for the Reaper Men. When they see something they want they go after it full steam ahead. They will get what they want and no one better step in their way or try to take or hurt what is theirs.

Mandy has not had an easy life. If it weren’t for the bad luck she finds herself in she wouldn’t have any at all.  She has not had the best luck picking men out but what she does have is a loving sister and nieces and a job that helps keep the five of them afloat. Once again she finds herself in over her head when it comes to a boyfriend. She finds herself face to face with the President of the Reapers. All I can say is Mandy is not a sit back and take what is dished out to her but push her the wrong way and you better be prepared for the crazy that is the wrath of Mandy.  I love her spirit and spunk she maybe naive to somethings but she is strong and has willpower to go with it…or maybe it is Wonder Woman Power.

Shade is all alpha knows what he wants when he sees it and given the chance to swoop in and take it he will.  He knows what he wants and once he gets it no one will take it away without a fight. I loved seeing a different side of Shade when he was around Mandy he would do anything for her and the way he came to her rescue was all Shade. He was a take charge kind of guy and to see Mandy not back down to Shade was amusing.

The chemistry between Shade and Mandy was sizzling. I would like to see more of Bone and Sara story and Hannah and Heath. I just love this series and the more Joanna writes about them the more I want to soak up each word written.

Amazon

REVIEW BY: TWINSIE KIDDO KARINA

Cody had been fishing since he was itty bitty and wanted to teach his friends Hunter and Samantha how to fish. Cody, Hunter and Samantha wanting to catch Big Bertha, the cat fish.

I think the book was really good. I especially like the characters they were really nice in the book. My favorite part of the book was when Samantha didn’t want Cody to put the bluegill on his fishing hook. My second favorite part was when Samantha, Hunter and Cody found the Old Man Summers lost dog in the woods. Hunter was really funny, Samantha laughed at everything and Cody was really strict. Samantha and Hunter fought on what each other could and couldn’t do.  I think that people who like to go fishing would enjoy this book.

#Review – Master of Solitude (Mountain Masters & Dark Haven Book 8) By: Cherise Sinclair

35103641

Since childhood, Mallory McCabe has dreamed of falling in love with a hero. And then one saves her life. He’s honest…and blunt. Deadly, but filled with pain. Overpowering, yet ever so gentle with her. Oh yes, she’s found her hero. Taking him to her bed is simply…right. As is losing her heart.

How could she have known he’d want nothing more to do with her?

His indifference hurts. She vows to forget him…then he buys the land next to hers.

Released early from prison, all Sawyer Ware wants is to put his life back together. His police detective brother houses him while he makes plans. But when a violent gang targets his brother, Sawyer puts his future on hold. He’ll have to take on the gang first. After a decade as a Navy SEAL, he won’t–can’t–walk away if someone he loves is threatened.

His mission is likely to prove bloody. He sure can’t afford to get involved with a woman, especially his captivating neighbor. He hungers to be near her, to enjoy her clear laugh, her easy friendship, and the peace she brings wherever she goes. A relationship is absolutely out of the question.

Why won’t his heart obey orders?

Goodreads

Amazon US

I almost forgot how much I loved these men.  The chemistry Mallory and Sawyer have is explosive but they both try to fight it.

Sawyer was released early from prison and is now trying to protect his brother and the people of Bear Flat. See when the prison closed it left behind a violent gang and they had their sights on Sawyers brother for killing the leader of the gang in a prison break.  Sawyer being the former Navy SEAL was all about taking them out before they got to his family. A spunky contractor caught his attention but getting involved with someone is the last thing he needs especially if they are just wanting a little thrill of being with an ex-con.

Mallory runs a contract company and looking for the perfect guy that she can blend well with. Little did she know her one night stand would be her neighbor in the next few days and she would be working on his property?  The way these two keep coming together and then repelling each other like a pair of magnets is magnetizing.  Mallory knows when to push Sawyer and when to let things go but when he rejects her in town it is heart crushing.

Sawyer has to push Mallory away to keep her safe but she is not one to sit by and watch her town go in the gutter. She is a fighter and can swing a broom with the best of them. She rallies the town and puts herself in the middle of all the danger Sawyer has tried so hard to keep her away from. Now he is forced to protect his brother, Mallory and the town that he is starting to see as his.

I love Mallory and her gift she is loving, caring and protective in her own way. She sees someone in trouble she jumps in to help. There was a lot of push and pull between Mallory and Sawyer. Mallory was all in but Sawyer was still in protecting mode and protection meant he needed distance. I enjoyed seeing the Mastersons, the Hunts, and even Simon and Xavier. I enjoyed this book Mallory is an introvert but when the time comes to stand up and push back she is all in especially when her friends are in danger.

A few of my favorites:

Sawyer didn’t think a woman had ever looked at him as Mallory did now – as if she could see past his skin and into his soul. And still liked what she saw.

“Good. But, Mallory, you’re new. Even if you forget the colors, it’s all right. I’m going to be right here with you, figuring out what you’re saying. What you need.” His eyes were steady on hers. He was totally in control of himself – and her.

Well, honestly. Mallory scowled. “Although I believe in recycling, you’ve gone too far. Good advise shouldn’t be returned like you would a… a soda bottle.”

Authors often say their characters argue with them. Unfortunately, since Cherise Sinclair’s heroes are Doms, she never, ever wins.

New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, Cherise Sinclair is renowned for writing heart-wrenching stories with laugh-out-loud dialogue, devastating Dominants, and absolutely sizzling sex. And did I mention the BDSM? Her awards range from a National Leather Award to a Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice nomination to a Goodreads BDSM group’s Best Author of the Year.

Fledglings having flown the nest, Cherise, her beloved husband, and one fussy feline live in the Pacific Northwest where nothing is cozier than a rainy day spent writing.

#WOTR #Review – Sanctuary by: Teresa Gabelman

Drowning in debt, the owner of Stone’s Wolf Sanctuary, Gemma Stone, is as exhausted as she is determined. Not only does she have to win over frightened, injured wolves daily, but she’s tired of those threatening to close her sanctuary down. It’s not until Eric Jackson walked into her life that she sees a light at the end of the lonely tunnel she’s been traveling. To the surprise of both, they have more in common than either could have ever imagined.

Goodreads

Amazon US

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

Don’t let this short story fool you it packs a punch. If you are looking for a quick read with a sexy alpha shifter and a sassy lady grab this one.

Gemma runs a wolf sanctuary were wolves come when they have no were else to go. Gemma is a fiery strong willed woman that will let nothing or no one stand in her way of doing what she loves.

Eric is the alpha wolf of his clan and is on a mission to find a wolf that crossed his pack. However, Eric found a little more than he was bargaining for when he found his way to Gemma’s place.

I fell fast and hard for Eric and Gemma. The scene with Luna was heart breaking. I loved the most was Gemma’s determination, fire and fight she may have been scared to death but she never showed it on the outside. With a short story it always leaves you wanting more. I would love to learn more about Eric’s wonderful pack, a little more of Gemma’s past, maybe a little more about Larry too and if they ever find who they were looking for. This is me hoping there is more to this story….maybe a new series?? Please??

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

O Teresa….you get me…you totally get what I like to read. #ShifterGirl #ParanormalGroupie

If you are a fan of Teresa’s,  you will obviously need to buy this one because it’s a new possible series….Teresa????  Thoughts???  Begging???  Ok Pleading!!  If you haven’t read her, uhm why?  But then this will get you a quick look at her writing and awesomeness.   Yes, that is a real word so leave me be.

Ok Gemma is a wear your heart on the sleeve kinda girl.  She is going to protect her wolf sanctuary even if the townies and sheriff want her to pack it up and leave.  She is following with her passion and protecting her grandfather’s legacy.

Eric is the alpha shifter of a near by pack of wolves.  He is looking for a rogue shifter but also looking to see if the legend of a safe place for shifters is true.

When he meets her is stunned that this feisty and sassy human is his mate but also stunned that she cares for these wolves without thinking of her own safety.  When Eric joins in the help her during a trying time the sparks fly and the couple end up opening up to what they know and who they are.

I loved the quick book and can’t want for more.  I mean Eric’s brothers need a book plus we need to know about the bad guy Eric is tracking!!

#Review – Rabid Wolf (Olento Research Series – Book 3) by Sarah Noffke

Rabid Wolf: A Paranormal Science Fiction Thriller (Olento Research # 3)

Rabid and hungry for vengeance, one wolf won’t stop until he’s put to death.

A string of murders involving women are making the residents of Los Angeles panic. They’re calling the serial killer the “rabid wolf” because he tears his prey open by the throat and leaves behind a maimed body.

Meanwhile, at the Lucidite Institute, the pack is training, under Zephyr’s instruction. He knows that soon they’ll have to go after the rabid wolf and also rescue other members of the pack. However, they need to work together in order to be successful. They need to operate as one.

Adelaide, knowing that she needs to put an end to Olento Research’s corrupted experiments, goes undercover working at its sister company, Parantaa Research. It’s as a new employee that she meets Mika Lenna, putting herself in a deadly position. As long as she maintains her cover then she can gain covert information and find out how to destroy Olento Research and its CEO.

However, Mika is tired of the Lucidites beating him. These are his werewolves. He’s the one who invested in creating them. And now the shareholders are pressuring him to deliver. That’s why he decides it’s time he sees the future, like the Lucidites. He needs to know where the next werewolf will be and when. And he needs a monster that can take them down.
The stakes are even higher in the third installment of the Olento Research series. The villains are more deadly. The heroes are growing stronger. But who will win? Beast, man or wolf?

Goodreads

Amazon US

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

This series keeps getting better and better the twist and turns have me going in all different directions. It is like keeping score one for the good guys, one for the bad guys, who is going to get the next one. The Lucidites and Olento Research are both out to find the werewolves. The cat and mouse game has me captivated.

Hunter is on a warpath trying to settle the score with those who did wrong by him. Only problem is he is leaving a path of carnage behind him. Adelaide went undercover to find out more about Olento and where it is located. Talk about nail biting couple of chapters….will she find the evidence she is looking for, will she find more than she bargained for….will she get caught by the ruthless evil Mika?

Seeing all these characters grow and find their place in the scheme of things is amazing.  I need to know more about Malcolm, Rio, Zephyr, Hunter, Rox, Conner, and yes even Kris the invisible girl. One of my favorite scenes is when Adelaide takes Lucien to the library. I have a feeling things are going to get worse before they get better. Waiting patiently for Bad Wolf because I need to know more.

A few of my favorites:

“You totally froze up there, Pound Puppy. You’re supposed to deflect attacks. Not stand like a fucking statue,”

Connor took his time running his eyes over Adelaide’s expression as she spoke. She was such a different sort than he’s ever met before. And he girl could produce illusions. She probably thought that people respected her because of her father. But he wasn’t impressed by her because of whom she was related to, but rather because she was like whom she was related to. Adelaide was the embodiment of all things Connor had heard about Ren Lewis. She was brave and mysterious and powerful and pulled it all off with the perfect degree of snarky indifference.

She instinctively felt that he could do many things with that stare. Maybe even put her back together.

“I think you’re responsible for killing the last Neanderthal. I always knew women were the death of men,” he said, standing up and towing the gigantic man off Rox.

He pressed his mouth to hers, breathing her in. Adelaide didn’t pull away. Didn’t want to. Instead she kissed him back, engrossed by the softness of his lips, of the taste of his mouth, at the thoughts that only spoke of how much he accepted her. Of how much he wanted her. Of how much he’d always wanted her. Since the beginning.

#Review #ReleaseBoost – Blood Bound (Others of Edenton: Book 10) – by: Brandy L. Rivers

35110410

A new and deadly game has swept through Washington state.

After releasing her brother from centuries of torment, Consuela nearly let guilt drag her down. A Dreamwalker, wasn’t ready to let her slip away. He would have done anything to ease the burden of her past.

Declan found her in dreams, falling apart. Having been down that road, lingering too long on the wrong choices, he couldn’t idly stand by while watching her suffer. He was determined to help her find another way.

Back in Edenton, Consuela would be pulled into a Silver Council investigation. A terrifying, immersive roleplaying game was gaining popularity in Seattle. Humans pretending to be vampires—but drained corpses started showing up.

With Declan’s help, and her gifts, they go undercover to stop the real vampires, and end the Death Fount before the truth could be revealed and more lives lost.

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

WOW another great book by Brandy L. Rivers. This is book 10 of Others of Edenton where Consuela and Declan are taking on Vampires and demons all while trying to figure out their connection to one another.

What does one do when they are struggling with guilt so big you don’t know how you will overcome it? Consuela is breaking down and Declan can feel her pain when he visits her in her dreams. Declan does the only thing he can by going to her to try and help. But how can she trust anyone after what she has been through? Declan and Consuela are in the middle of helping the Silver Council deal with a group of vampires that are playing a deadly game of Blood Bound.

This book has everything I went through so many emotions plus there was action and suspense. The love story between Declan and Consuela was genuine. I enjoyed being able to see all the different characters and love the way Brandy intertwines the characters and we get to see glimpses of them. My heart was absolutely broken after seeing what Amelia went through. I am so ready for the next book already.

A few of my favorites:

Staying away wasn’t and option. He sought her out every day he went to sleep, hoping to dampen the pain growing in her eyes.

The door shut and Declan pulled Consuela into his arms. “Tell me what you need.” She pushed him back and pulled her shirt over her head. “I have everything I need in front of me.”
