HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO KALI WILLOWS

  Good afternoon peeps today I have a double surprise for you . I got to start early on the novels for reader round up and it is release day for Kali Willows and her second book in The Fallen Angels - Mc Madness series . FIGHT FOR THE FALLEN. 

                          BOOK BLURB

 The war was never over.

It was just waiting in the shadows… For her to come home.

Sloane Axton was forged in fire and betrayal.

Now President of the Southern Charter, when the club suffers an unfathomable tragedy, something inside her shatters.

She walks a razor-thin line between vengeance and justice—her moral compass fractured, her soul splintered by ghosts too dangerous to name.

Grief becomes gasoline.

And she’s seconds from lighting the match.

The South is done surviving in the wreckage of a tainted legacy.

They’re rebuilding something worth bleeding for—dragging the North out of the ashes of anarchy and into an era of outlaw code, chosen brotherhood, and redemption.

But even honor has a cost.

The Southern Accords are more than peace talks.

They’re a last-ditch attempt to protect the town of Rhapsody Falls from a looming storm—redirecting firepower away from turf wars and into a future worth fighting for.

But peace is a fragile pillar of hope…

And it’s the blood spilled around the table that threatens to bring it all crashing down.

Liam Gunn.

President of the North.

Her ride-or-die.

The one man who ruined her for anyone else.

A love like theirs doesn’t die—it carves itself into your bones and waits to rise from the ashes.

But love doesn’t come without sacrifice.

And if Sloane loses control, she’ll burn everything to the ground to protect those she loves.

In the world of the MC—where loyalty is life or death and justice wears a bloody crown—

                               MY REVIEW 

 Sloane and Liam are back and fighting for their lives and the lives of the members of their clubs. The South club is done living in the tattered shadow of the past and the North chapter is well just hanging on by a thread. War is coming and they all must come together to fight the evil that is coming their way . Sloane is done with what is happening and will do anything to keep the club going and every member safe even if that is taking on the revenge by herself and becoming a one woman wrecking crew. It will take Liam and the rest of the brotherhood to keep war from totally destroying both clubs. 

  Sloane and Liam and the rest of the crew are back and they are ready for war . Sloane is really having a hard time with what is happening, she feels responsible for the lives that were lost . We see her kind of go into herself and try and push everyone away as she takes on the man that started all of this and killed her father. Liam is kind of at a loss he wants to be right beside Sloane but she has a way of keeping him at arms length. They both are such strong characters but they also have their faults that keep them second guessing what it really means to be in love with someone and have their backs for always .  We also get to see more of the rest of the crew and their personalities and they are so much fun to read . 

   This is the second book in the series and starts off right where the first book leaves off . There is so much that happens in this book . We get to see both Liam and Sloane fight some inner demons and fight for what is right.  The author puts so much love and pain into her characters , you will love them . They are well written and complex. and the story is fast paced and lots of action and smexy times.  I do strongly suggest you read book one before diving into this book. Check it out if you love a good biked book with brooding bikes and kick butt ladies .

GOOD MORNING MY LAST NOVELLA

                              BOOK BLURB

 Staff Sergeant Liam Walsh is a white wolf shifter and the second-in-command of the X-Force squad of created shifters. Liam is a born leader, dedicated to his military career and team. But everything changes when he discovers that his true mate is Pauline Nevins, the forensic scientist for Project X-Force.

Pauline is a young woman with a passion for forensic science. Working for Project X-Force was a dream come true, fueled by her love for forensic science and crime-solving shows.

While jogging on the track, a bloodied body came rolling down the hill, knocking Pauline over and knocking off her glasses. As she looked up, she spotted a man raising his hand as if he had a gun and would shoot.

Her life quickly turns to terror when she becomes the target of a ruthless killer. With her glasses knocked off and her defenses down, she's at the mercy of her attacker. But when all hope seems lost, her mate appears, ready to protect her at all costs.

                        MY REVIEW 

  Liam Walsh is a wolf shifter and a staff sergeant and second in command in the elite X force. A group of made shifters who are enhanced and changed to keep shifters in check. His life is going good until the day he finds that his mate is a forensic scientist that also works for X force. When Pauline ends up in the sights of a serial killer she is targeted and taken . Liam and his team need to put all feelings aside and find her before it is too late. 

   Liam and Pauline are the sweetest of couples . Liam is a natural born leader and very dedicated to his job. When he finds his mate you see a softer sweeter side of Liam. He becomes very protective and oh so sexy when he is around Pauline. Pauline is a sweet woman who works hard and is very sweet . She never thought that she would find someone to care for and love. She is strong willed and feisty and is willing to do what it takes to be with the man she loves . I truly like these characters and the way they are with each other . They compliment each other very well . 

 This is a read that will suck you in trust me . I read this in a evening and I didn't move from the spot until I was done. There are trigger warnings for this book from stalking to abduction, graphic sexual content to list some. So if you are a little iffy about that I would stay away from. Overall this is a book that will keep you reading all evening . So if you like shifters check it out . This author has a great way writing her shifters . A great fall read

WE ARE ON THE SECOND LAST BOOK OF NOVELLAS FOR READER ROUND UP

   Good morning my peeps I think we are on day six of  novellas for reader round up. Today I have you a highlander/dragon book for you. HER SCOT OF YESTERYEAR , MacLeod Dragons book one by Sky Purington. 

                               BOOK BLURB

 Two souls bound together six hundred years apart. One sizzling hot attraction that could alter the fate of Scotland.

What if I told you fairytales do come true and the man of your dreams existed six centuries before you were born? Then what if I told you the fairytale was wrong, and he was in love with someone else? You would probably tell me I was losing my mind, but I’m not. It was confirmed when I moved into my new home in New Hampshire and learned that the whimsical stories that had been born of my imagination since childhood were real.

Very real and made up of a tall, handsome Highland dragon warrior.

Yet when I’m whisked back in time, unlike my dashing hero of Yesteryear, as I so lovingly called him, Laird Broderick MacLeod is nothing like I imagined. He’s brooding and standoffish, pining over lost love, until a magical Viking sword draws us together, igniting a scorching passion that attracts the wrong kind of attention.

The sort of attention that will turn the King of Scotland’s scrutiny our way and spark an age-old blood feud between the MacLeods and a rival clan that could threaten history unless I do the last thing I saw coming. Something that will tear me away from Broderick unless he defies his monarch and risks everything. I must become the enemy’s mistress to appease the king and bring peace.

       

                         MY REVIEW 

 What would you do if the stories you have heard for years were true. The man fated for you lived six centuries before you were even born. A highlander. Well Aspen found out when she moved to New Hampshire , when the stories that were told to her as a child are actually real. As she finds out as she is whisked back in time to meet the brooding laird of the clan Mcleod. With the help of the Viking sword the two of them that pulls them together and ignites a passion that can not be denied but also brings so much unwanted attention to them.  That sparks a blood feud that could threaten history itself. When Aspen does the unthinkable so that she will not be torn away from Broderick . She must become the mistress of his enemy just to make the king happy and then that might bring some peace. 

   Aspen and Broderick are a couple that defy the ages . Aspen is a modern woman well lets just say she is a witch, along with her sisters.  She is strong willed an a little defiant when it comes to getting what she wants. She is very intelligent and kind of a thrill seeker so she is a hand full for the Laird Macleod. Broderick is a brooding, standoffish oh the most important thing he is also a dragon warrior.  He is mourning a lost love but when he sees Aspen things change and he can't get enough of her. They go through so much to be together and when they get back together the sparks fly . These are truly well written characters and I love how the author put them through things but brought them back together. 

  This is a great book for those who love highlanders and also sexy dragons . The story moves very fast and you get swept away into the story and the all that goes with it . The characters are well written and complex you can't help but cheer for them to survive and get back to each other. This is a book that you can read in an evening all curled up under a plaid blanket and a good shot of scotch to warm your insides as you read. A definite read for all your fall reading lists . Check it out

ON TO BOOK TWO OF THE DAY

 Now we are on to book 2 from Angel Nyx. INDIGO NIGHTS  a second chance romance 

                           BOOK BLURB 

 Laney Nichols

Always the good girl, Laney gave into her wild side and had a summer fling her last summer of senior year of college. When he catfished and ghosted her, leaving her pregnant, she never expected to see him again, only for their paths to cross five years later. Now he's her new boss and the flame is still there. But he broke her heart once before, can she trust him not to do it again?

Malcolm Griffin

Tired of gold-digging socialites who only want him for his money, Malcolm assumes a fake name and hides away in a little beach town for the summer. He never expected to meet the woman of his dreams. Laney was everything he could ever want; smart, funny, beautiful, and liked him for who he was, not his bank account. Except, she didn't know who he really was. When the summer was over, he had to go back to his real life, but he never forgot about the one who got away.

Five years later she's back and he has a lot to make up for. Can he win back her love or will he be left out in the cold?

                        MY REVIEW

 Laney is a straightlaced, hard working college student who studies hard . When her best friend and her decide to let loose before her last semsester of college. When at the seaside town she finds a man who ignites her soul and well by the end of the summer she is left from the man who she could love. He ghosted her and when she got home to put it behind her until she finds out she got a little bit more then souvenir. Now after 5 years she walks into a office meeting right into the man she hasn't seen in 5 yrs . When they meet they rekindle the romance that they had and become the family that they should of become. 

   Laney is a sweet no nonsense woman who is working hard to keep her and her daughter safe and happy. She works hard . She does have some trust issues when it comes to men. She doesn't want to get hurt again. Malcom is tired of women throwing themselves at him just because he comes from the richest family around . So when he on vacation he uses an alias and found the girl of his dreams. He is sweet and guarded and a good guy . When they are grown they find each other and becoming the couple that they should of been 5 years earlier . Each character is well written and you will love them and cheer for them . 

   This is one of those stories that is a fun read. it is all about second chances at finally finding the love that you deserve. The author had fun with these characters and what she does with them. Watching them grow up and find the true love that they deserve . This would be a great read for the fall evenings .

GOOD AFTERNOON PEEPS , TODAY WE HAVE TWO BOOKS FOR YOU FOR READER ROUND UP

   Good afternoon my peeps , today I have two books for you from the same author . First book up is BLACK TEARS ( A Marchetti family book one ) by Angel Nyx 

                          BOOK BLURB 

 Giovani Marchetti

Every time I'm around Carly I want nothing more than to trace those sexy curves of hers with my hands and mouth.
I know she wants me as much as I want her, but something is holding her back.

Maybe she doesn't want to be connected to the mob.

I'm a man with secrets that could destroy lives.

Carly has enemies too, and when I find them they'll wish they'd never touched her.

Carly Ballentyne

Giovani Marchetti is a sexy Italian God, with connections to the mafia. He's also my boss.

If it weren't for the rules I put in place after my son's father was killed, I'd willingly invite him into my bed.

Whenever he opens his sexy mouth and utters my name my resolve melts a little more. But someone is after me, and he doesn't need to be mixed up in my issues. He has enough trouble of his own.

                        MY REVIEW 

  Giovani is the son of a mafia dom in New Orleans , where his family is the head of the mob in of all places New Orleans . An off shoot of the Machetti's in Chicago. When his father sends him to look over their new acquisitions a strip club called Dangerous Curves . Where he meets a very alluring woman named Lola aka Carly. He is instantly attracted to her but there is more to it than that. He is attracted to the woman who can be a handful but is great at the managers job and actually gets under his skin in a good way.  Carly is a tough as nails woman who puts her son first and her friends ahead of a lot of things. When her son is sick and rushed to the hospital she finds solace and happiness in the arms of this Adonis of a man with a past that will shock you . As they navigate the relationship things come up that could break them up but they . Together they will realize that they belong together and a tragedy will bring them together . 

Gio and Carly are such a cute couple . Gio is built like a greek god with brooding eyes and a body that will not stop. He is in perfect control of everything around him. He is controlling but not in a evil way. He actually falls first and really does a great deal to win over Carly.  He is really there to help Carly and love her like noone else could . Carly is a tough as nails woman who has been working hard since she was sixteen and pregnant with her son. She has scraped by and worked hard and the job wasn't the best. She is scared of falling in love again. Gio is the one man who hopefully can break through the walls and finally get Carly to open up and fall in love again. 

  This is one of those books that is a slow burn, with characters that have flaws but love each other in spite of those flaws . This author really puts the time and effort into her characters and the story lines . I really like this author and her writing . The plot does move a little slow at times but over all it is a great story with great characters and a good story line . So if you want a slow burn read for your fall evenings check it out.

     Kaitlyn is a tough as nails woman, who has had a very hard life. She is tough and sassy but there is a sweet innocent that wants to be loved and safe.

They are sweet couple and they really for each other. We watch them change and become more and more complex .  His brothers are well what can i say. They are at each others throats through out the book. Vincent is his right hand man and he is a grouchy bear but he is the man that you want in your corner he is the strong silent type of man who would move heaven and earth to keep you and those you love safe. 

   This is one of books that you will snuggle down and read with a good a glass of wine The characters are well written and complex . You will love to hate them all. This is the first book I have read from this author and I really like her writing style and her characters . It is a fast read that will keep you reading and I can't wait to read more from this author . This will be a good add for fall reading list.

GOOD DAY EVERYONE WELCOME TO DAY 3 OF READER ROUND UP

    Good afternoon my peeps today we have book 3 in the novellas. Today I have for you GALENA Black Bears of Independance book 8 by K. R Hall 

                             BOOK BLURB

   Everyone knows shifters only have one fated mate.

What happens when your fated mate dies as a child? This is the question that has haunted Galena for almost fifty years.

Healer of the Hurst Family Clan, Galena Applehans, met her mate, Arlo Evans when they were ten. Their connection was undeniable, but tragically, the Big Thompson Canyon flood of ’76 swept Arlo away.

Now nearly fifty years later, a man claiming to be Arlo has suddenly appeared at the Hurst Family Clan’s compound, ready to claim Galena as his mate. But Galena and her inner black bear are hesitant.

Where has Arlo been for the last forty-nine years? Can this man truly be her long-lost mate, or is something more sinister at play?

                       MY REVIEW

    Galena is a bear shifter and a healer of her clan. She has been haunted by loosing her mate as a young child. Arlo was supposedly swept away by a big flood in 1976.  Almost fifty years later a man that claims to be Arlo comes into the compound . Will Galena and her bear recognize him as her mate . Or there is something blocking him and can they figure it out before something sinister happens 

  Galena is a sweet woman who I am thankful is middle aged, yes i get tired of reading younger woman . She is the epitome of niceness and she takes her job as healer very serious. Arlo is well he is troubled and hurting . After being lost to his pack for almost 50 years . He is also being tormented by a demon that is killing people. He doesn't trust himself around anyone . These two are so sweet and shy with each other but they soon realize that they belong together and the sparks fly. 

   This is a book you can read on a cozy evening with a cup of hot cocoa . The characters are well written and you will get attached to them from the first page and you can watch them grow up and find each other again . This is a fast read and you can read it in an evening . I really like how this author writes and will be reading more from her . Check her out.

GOOD MORNING AND WELCOME TO DAY 2 OF RR

   Good morning peeps , it is day two of reader roundup novellas and today I have for you a brand new author to me. Samantha Brimmer and her book DEVIL ON MY SHOULDER 

                           BOOK BLURB 

 Ever feel so alone like no one sees the real you? As if no one could possibly understand what you are going through? Ever feel like the demon in your head is stronger than you and you have no way out of the corner that you've been backed into? Ever feel so unloveable that your think you are better off dead? Meet Phoenix who is exactly like that. She wakes up every day just to battle the demon in her head. She is tired of opening her eyes every day just to have to battle Monty in her head. Then she meets Asher. A young man who is determined to show her she is worthy, wanted, loved, beautiful beyond a doubt, he wants to show her that she is enough and more, but will that be enough. Take a walk in the footsteps of Phoenix as she not only navigates a love life, but also her mental health issues at the same time.

                                                 MY REVIEW 

 Phoenix is a young woman who has been through so much. Every morning she wakes up and has a daily battle with the demon in her head. The thoughts are sometimes over powering and oh so overwhelming. Until the day a gorgeous young man walks into her life and makes her realize that life can be worth living and love can happen even to those that think they aren't worth loving . Together they will travel a road full of bumps and pot holes to finally maybe find the love that Phoenix deserves . 

    This is one book that when you start you can not put down. Phoenix is a sweet girl who has been battling demons from the time she was young. The voice in her head , Monty is there to put her down and make her feel like she is going crazy on a daily basis. She feels like she will never win against him but she is stronger then she realizes. She is a fighter and you see her fight everyday even when she is too scared to talk to anyone because she is afraid someone will call her crazy. The one person who is there for her is Asher , the boy that came into her life and started to make things feel normal. He has a calming way and understands Phoenix. The other main character in this book is Monty the voice in Phoenix's head . He is well actually pure evil and you will hate him . Each character has been well written and complex . You really just want to give each of them a hug well everyone but Monty. Phoenix really got to me and pulled my heart strings over and over . 

    This is one of those stories that will have you crying through out . It is a heart wrenching look at what could happen to those who are scared to get help because they don't want to be branded crazy. There are so many trigger warnings in this book so please check them before reading . Toxic family, , depression, childhood trauma are just a few. This is one of those books that is heavy but is must read . It ripped out my heart but also stitched it back together. This a book that you should add to your fall reading list .

IT IS BACK READER ROUND UP DAY ONE

 It is that time of year again Reader Round up and we are doing novellas this week. Today I have a fun little book by RL Merrill  STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN EVERYDAY. 

                              BOOK BLURB

 My wife's job is writing horror stories, and I pretend the spooky stuff is just fiction. She's a bona fide best-selling author whom I met while responding to a call for service. She's also a medium. As an EMT, I'm used to the fact that you never know what you're going to get when you show up at someone's house. I never expected to meet the love of my life while out on a call, marry her, and move cross-country with her. I certainly never expected the ghosts...

 

                         MY REVIEW

   Frankie and Lulu are just married and off on an adventure heading off south to Mississippi. Where Frankie has a job as an EMT and Lulu can continue her writing career. When things start to get a little weird when Frankie starts to see a man walking around and vanishing around corners. Frankie is taken to a place where Lulu protects her with her Physic ability to keep her safe as she figures out the mystery surrounding the last owner of the house Henrietta. Together  with Jamal they are set on a path that will reunite a couple and finally shed the light on what happened to the church money 

  Frankie and Lulu are such a sweet couple , they are so in love with each other and want to be there for each other. Frankie is a strong woman who will fight for what is right . Lulu is a free spirit who has a talent that well renown horror writer and physic trouble seems to follow them around from one adventure to another . They are opposites but they fit together so well , they know and love each other for what they are and what they can be. They are such interesting and I feel that they could be a neighbour. I liked them and would of loved to see more of them as a couple and watch them grow.

  This is a fast read that the author pull a segment of their lives . The characters are well written  and you will want more from them. It shows a small part of what their day includes . I would love to see more of them in additional stories . This is a fun read and the author has a fun way of writing that will have you giggling through out the book . So add this your fall reading list for your fast fall reading list.

I AM BACK AND READY FOR FALL

   Good afternoon my peeps . I am sorry I have been mia the last month but life on the farm really got busy . But I am back and ready to find you all your fall and winter reads. Today is release day for Marianne Morea's new series Book one is RIVALS OF SEA AND SKY  first book in the Avalon Courts series

                           BOOK BLURB 

 Eden Aossi, heir to the Summer Court, has everything a fae princess is supposed to want—couture gowns, enchanted castles, and a destiny etched in starlight. What she doesn’t have? The freedom to actually live her own life.

Stuck in etiquette lessons and royal obligations, Eden feels less like a future queen and more like a collectible locked in a glass case. Luckily, she’s not alone. Her mentor and mischievous wizard Merlin—yes, that one—is more than happy to nudge her toward a little well-placed rebellion.

When a chance pops up to ditch the crown-polishing and sneak into the Winter Court gala, she’s gone faster than you can say fairy glam squad, trading duty for one night of dazzling lights, music, and the kind of freedom she’s only ever seen in mortal movies.

That’s when she collides with Daire Dannean: Winter’s heir, sworn enemy, and walking reminder that she’s in way over her head. The spark between them is undeniable, inconvenient, and maybe even dangerous. But for the first time, Eden feels seen—not as an heir, but as herself.

As the two navigate glittering courts, tangled loyalties, the complex pop culture of the human world, and shadows lurking at the edge, they discover a shared dream: breaking free of tradition and forging a new future. Trouble is, not everyone wants peace...and some will do anything to keep them apart.

Magic, betrayal, and a forbidden romance, Eden’s about to learn that happily ever after isn’t a fairy tale. It’s a glow-up.

                       MY REVIEW 

 Eden is a princess of the Summer Court , the oldest daughter who is destined to take over as queen when her mom passes away or steps down. She has everything a fae princess could ask for but the freedom to live her own life . Until the night she sneaks off to a party with her sister to the Winter court. When she runs into Daire Dannean the prince of Winter court. They are drawn together as they see each other as the person they are and not the titles they have. When they head to the human world they have to navigate the courts and human world to bring them what they truly want and desire. 

 Eden is a sweet young woman who just happens to be a fae princess who is being trained to take over Summer court .Her mother is nothing but diabolical . Eden is trying to have a life but duty calls . She is sweet and kind but also wants to live her own life. She starts off as a little naive but as you watch her grow through out the book.
