I love Melynda Price's work. I fell in love with her Against the Cage series, and have read every book from her that I could get my hands on. So when I seen Vow Of Silence on Netgalley, I was really curious. I was use to her sexy, bad-ass MMA fighter romances, so I didn't know what to expect going into a book set in Amish country. BUT OMG!!!! OMFG it was so good. To say I was on the edge of my seat, is putting it mildly. I didn't know who the killer was until a few pages before it was revealed in the book. That doesn't happen often for me. Most of the time I know who the killer is right away. Melynda Price did an amazing job of weaving a world filled with questionable characters, a sick twisted killer, and a sweet, angsty second chance romance. I loved every minute of it. I didn't put it down till I finished it.
Joe (Josiah) Troyer was just so yummy. I have a thing for cops (well men in uniforms really) and I love protective, alpha heroes. Joe was all that and more. He was brave, smart, sweet, and bad-ass. His love for Hannah came through strong on the pages. I didn't feel like there was a big part of their relationship missing, and I didn't feel like it lacked anything. Hannah and Joe had a strong chemistry. Hannah was also amazing. I loved that she was spirited, strong willed, and had a mind of her own. The bravery of Hannah and her inner strength really made her shine in this book. Their second chance love was on point. I loved how deep I felt their connection. Not to mention Joe's connection to Hannah's son Eli. My heart broke for that poor baby losing so much.
Something I find a lot in Romantic suspense novels is that they will either lack in the romance part, or in the suspense part. Very rarely do I find a book that has that perfect balance. This is one of those rare jewels. The plot of this book was so good. OMG so good. It took me on a ride that had me guessing who the killer was, then 20 minutes later changing my mind. The killer was written well. He was a sick sob, and the things he did...... lets just say I would have liked his justice to be a bit more bloody. This book would have been perfect, but for one little thing. It of course didn't take away from my enjoyment of the book, but I would have loved for Hannah's father to pay for his sins as well. Still this book blew me away. I am so glad I got it and I hope Melynda Price writes more books like this. Maybe set in this world. Maybe we can get a peek into how Josiah and Hannah are doing deeper into their HEA. A girl can hope! If you like Romantic Suspense I totally recommend this book.

Vampires in America The Vignettes Vol 2 was a very enjoyable read. I love the VIA world so getting to catch up on all my favorite vamps with cute little stories is so much fun for me. I knew I would get some smexy time with Cyn, Raphael, and the other Vampire Lords and mates. What I didn't expect,but was pleasantly surprised about was the stories about Juro. I loved the story with Juro and Luci, but my all time favorite story in this book was of how Juro and his twin brother Ken'ichi became vampires. I am super intrigued by the hunky Japanese twins and would love more of the sexy twin duo. I would love for Ken'ichi to get his own book. Hint hint!!!! This book was an easy, sexy read that gave me my fix of Vampires in America while I wait for Quinn's book!

Going into this read I had it in my head that I knew which way this book would go. I was so damn wrong. I should have known Rebecca Zanetti would rock my world. As I plan to keep this review spoiler free I'm having a hard time putting my thoughts to words, but Imma try. Let me start by saying I loved this book. It was everything I hoped for and more.
Having read about Hope, Drake and Pax growing up through the series I kind of had an idea of the adults they would become, but RZ dug deep and really developed their character. Especially Pax and Drake. I had my thoughts on which male Hope would end up mated to. Of course I can't say because spoiler free....but I will say that the romance was steamy, the sexual tension was off the charts and Hope made the right choice in my opinion.
I loved getting to see my favorites Talen, Dage, Zane etc. We meet some of the original couples adult kids in this book. Which gave me all the feels. I really hope RZ gives us the Kids' love stories. I really need them in my life. Just sayin'. There was some fast pace action in this book. Lots of twist and turns I didn't see coming. There was also a lot of answers to questions I have had since book 1. Ulric was as creepy and evil as ever. I didn't know how he was going to be handled but RZ really delivered the goods on that epic battle. I was really surprised with the Vero story. I loved seeing how brave and strong Hope was and I loved that her family didn't baby her, but treated her with respect. I will say I have a few more questions now that this book/series is over. I really REALLY really hope RZ does a spin off series with the couples kids or continues with this series. I am not ready to say goodbye.
So I was looking on my kindle trying to find something to read and realized I forgot to do this ARC. So I started it yesterday and I took all day today to try and figure out how I feel about it. I love Linda Broday, and I really enjoy early America/western HR. This one was really good for the most part, but I was pretty disappointed about one thing. I loved Maura and Emma Taggart. I loved the nuns and the children. I loved Uncle Max, and Calhoun too. Hell I even liked Maura's dad the Hangman. I liked Maura and Calhoun relationship a lot. There was a lot of build up to their love and the connection was good, but I have to be honest I think I wanted Calhoun to be the other brother. I don't know why I feel that way but I do. Like I said I liked Calhoun the whole book so I don't know why I was so disappointed at which brother Calhoun was. Other than that the only other thing I didn't care for in this book, and it's a small thing, was that Calhoun kept calling Maura Lady. Not to be mean or anything and I'm sure that was common back then but I would have liked something a little more sweet. Still I thought the plot was really good. The relationships were sweet. I loved all the children and how the adults really loved and helped them. Overall I loved the book and I can't wait to read Emma's.
I am a total Bones and Cat fangirl. I fell in love with this series a few pages into book one when Cat tried to pick Bones up in the bar to murder. Every book after has only made my love for this world stronger. Each new book has gone above and beyond my expectations. There is so much to this series, to these characters that they feel real. I fell in love with Cat, Bones, Ian, Denise, Spade, Mencheres, Vlad, Juan, Rodney, and all the others throughout the years. I loved all the books from Cat's pov. BUT..... I have also always wanted to know what Bones was doing, thinking, and feeling, especially in those pivotal moments in the series. The first time they met back up after 4 years, the fight between Cat and Annette, Chapter 32, and too many others to name.
Being inside Bones head was like reminiscing with friends and also like reading a totally different book. I never felt bored or had that been there, done that! vibe while reading this book. Bones' pov adding so much more to the series. It added depth to his character and his and Cat's love. Most importantly it made me so flipping happy. I couldn't put the book down till I read it all. I am more in love than ever with this series. I really REALLY hope Jeaniene Frost keeps giving us fans Books in Bones' pov. If she keeps writing them I will keep reading them. Also I would really like Vlad's series in his pov too. This book was perfect and I can't wait to see what else JF writes in this world. If you like PNR you should try this book. Really you should read the whole series I promise it's amazing!!!
OMG I am having a hard time calming down to write this review, because I am so excited! I have loved this series since book one. I have watched(read) Garrett grow up and have been waiting forever for his book. I was so worried about reading it, feeling there was no way it could live up to my expectations. I should never have doubted Rebecca Zanetti. This book was everything I wanted and more. I can't say too much because I don't want to give away any spoilers. I will say that Garrett was sexy and protective. He was such a badass warrior. I love Talen. For the longest time I called Garrett mini Talen. Talen is my favorite so of course I loved that Garrett was so much like his father, but Garrett was also his own person which was perfect.
Garrett was just so great he really needed a amazing heroine to be worthy of him. Dessie was such a mystery when she first came on the scene that I didn't know if she would be good enough for Garrett. A few chapters in and I fell in love with Dessie's sweet, smart, brave and unique personality. Her and Garrett really had a connection that felt deep and real. They made a great couple and I fell in love with their story.
One of the things I loved the most about this book was we had a lot of time with Garrett's family and past favorite couples. It was like coming home and I enjoyed every minute of it. I could have used a bit more really. I can never get enough of the Kayrs!!!!!!!!! Like ever. The Janie/ Zane news was amazing. I also loved getting caught up with Jordan and Katie Pride. I really enjoyed the Hope /Pax/Drake love Triangle and I'm not really a triangle person. Although I love Pax and would be fine if Hope ended up with him I really want Drake and Hope to be the end couple. I would love for Hope and Drake to bring peace to the Kurjans. The Kurjans need some redemption which I felt started a tiny bit with Kalin. Besides who doesn't love a bad boy redemption. Some things happened in this book that shocked me. Rebecca Zanetti is an amazing writer and when I think I know where she is going with a story plot she pulls a 180 and surprises me. I loved every single minute of this ride and I can't wait to see what Mrs. Zanetti does with Hope's book. On a small side note I hope Hunter gets a book maybe even Katie and Jordan's twins could have a book. Really I would love all the kids to get stories because I never want this series to end! If you haven't tried this series and you love paranormal romances start with Talen's book Fated. They are one of my top 5 all time favorites series ever!
God I love Rebecca Zanetti. Her writing just speaks to me...... and it says "buy all my books because they are awesome" lol. I haven't read a book of Rebecca's yet that I didn't love. She is a auto buy for me. I first fell in love with Rebecca's writing when I read her Dark Protector series( which is one of my all time favorites), if you haven't read that series and love Paranormal romance check it out it's sooooo Good. Every series after DP that I have read were great. I love them all but, Deep ops holds a special place in my heart. I just fell in love with this ragtag group of badasses. Wolfe has always been my favorite, but Jethro is a close second.
Jethro is everything you could want in a man. Sexy, alpha, badass, British, smart, caring, and loyal. I loved getting to know him, and his background more. Gemma was amazing too. I love how brave she was. She was smart, a fighter, and protective of her daughter. Trudy was adorable. my ovaries exploded every time one of the big, strong, badass warrior let Trudy wrap them around her tiny finger. I love that Jethro and Gemma took their time got to know each other and built trust before they went deep with each other. They made a sexy couple and a sweet little family.
Wolfe! Omg Wolfe was cracking me up all through the book, and with him being Jethro's best friend he was in the book a lot. I can't wait to see Wolfe become a daddy. Sexy British twins Oliver and Ian were new to the series and can I just say they fit right in. I really hope Rebecca writes stories for them too. It was fun getting to visit with all the past couples and of course Roscoe. Sexy Lawyer Scott was in this book and I felt some sparks between him and a little Deep Ops Blond. This book was action packed, funny, sweet and sexy I can't wait for the next book in the series!
Home with you was such a cute second change holiday read. I really enjoyed it and it got me in the holiday spirit. Had me setting the mood. I plugged my Christmas tree up and had some hot cocoa while reading it. Morgan was so yummy. He really made the book for me. Peighton was great too I just loved Morgan a bit more. Both Morgan and Peighton's families were great. I was glad that Peighton didn't just let him back in he had to work to win her trust back. Both Morgan and Peighton were really relatable and my heart hurt for them both. I could feel their love and emotions through the pages.
Peighton wrote kids books about her childhood imaginary friend Harley the hedgehog which was really cute. Perry was adorable and I really liked Byron Langdon. Morgan really won me over the way he worked so hard to when Peighton back. The way he took care of her after her car wreck. The sexual tension was strong in this book. This book was so good. It had the perfect amount of forgiveness, sweetness and deep love. The end was my favorite. I didn't read book one but I think I will go back and check it out!
I’m your only option.” She snaps her fingers. “That’s it. I’m in hell. I died in a car accident. This is my worst nightmare which from now on, I’ll live for eternity. “ “What are you talking about? You hit your head that hard, huh?” “No. This is the beginning of my torture. I binged Lucifer with my sister, and in one episode, they showed how hell works.” ...more
OMG I have a book hangover. I finished this book two days ago and have not been able to get it out of my mind at all. Immortal's Honor was Sam Kyllwood's book. I loved Sam so much and couldn't wait for his story. I feel like Sam always took a backseat to his brothers, Zane, the demon King, and Logan a member of the Seven. It was nice to see him shine and get to know him better. Time is really starting to speed up in this book. 14 books in and I can't get enough of this world. I can't believe that Hope is 18. I love seeing her , Pax and Drake growing up. And with each book the series plot getting more exciting. I have no Idea where Rebecca Zanetti is taking me with this series, but I'm all in.
Sam was sexy, in control, protective, and badass which is typical for Rebecca's heroes, but Sam like all the others was uniquely different and special in his own way. Sam wanted to fix everything for everyone and was under a ton of pressure. Sam became the Keeper of the place were the seven and Ulric will have their final battle. He became said Keeper to help protect his niece Hope. Honor McDovall was a psychologist that helped Homeland security with interrogations. I loved that even though Honor was smart and caring she was also brave, never gave up and kicked ass. She didn't wait for a man to save her she fought with everything she had. Honor and Sam were very cute together. Honor was one lucky girl because Sam was so yummy.
This book really had me guessing. I didn't see the mini show down with Sam and Ulric coming and I was shocked about General Jaydon's evil plan. I'm surprised that Drake didn't kill him. I loved that we got some Talen and Dage time in this book. There was a cute surprise cameo from our favorite drunk dog from another one of Rebecca's awesome series. Because Sam and Garrett are both members of Bear's MC both Bear and Nessa are in this book a lot. Bear and Nessa were so cute and the sweet little news we readers get in this book about them just melted my heart. I also really love Flynn he is so sweet and protective. I really hope Flynn gets a book maybe a novella after Garrett's book. Hope , Pax, and Drake I am so up in the air when it comes to this love Triangle. With Hope's mom and dad I always wanted them together but with Hope at times I want her with Drake then I want her with Pax. The truth is they both keep things from Hope and that bothers me. Also I can't tell if Drake is evil yet or just believes the lies he was told his whole life. I will say I lean a tiny bit more towards Drake. I would love to see the shit that mating would cause. Not to mention it's really hot when Bad guys reform for the love of their life. Also call me crazy but I kinda want Drake and Hope to bring peace to the two nations. Garrett, Garrett, Garrett the man is a hot mess but God I love him. I can't wait for his book. I have wanted it since he was born in book 3. That little sneak peak at the end for Garrett's book has me super excited.
I love Shelly Laurenston. I enjoy how funny and crazy her shifter books are. Especially her honey badgers. I loved the first 3 books in this series but even though I liked this one I didn't love it. I wanted more romance. This book was funny and the plot flowed well. I was never bored. I like both Finn and Mads. I felt the book really needed more of them. There was to much side story going on taking away from Mads and the love part of the book. I didn't feel their love and it made me not connect to them as a couple. Now I loved the pride series and I loved the Mackilligans sisters. I enjoyed seeing them in this book but it seemed they were more of a star then Mads. So while I enjoyed reading this book and I loved spending time with past favorites I had to rate it a bit lower because this was suppose to be Mads and Finns book and I felt like they got ripped off.
Rebel's Karma was another amazing read by Rebecca Zanetti. The 13th book in the Dark Protector Series and the story line is still going strong. Things are heating up with the Seven and the Cyst and I can't wait to see what happens next. Benny has always been a favorite of mine and I knew I would love his book. I just didn't know how much I would end up loving Karma.
Karma was such a mystery going into this read. I knew from the last book that she had been mated to a Kurjan and she helped save a toddler in the last book, but other than that she was a blank page. Karma was amazing and the perfect mate for Benny. She was so brave and strong enduring for so long with the Kurjans yet never letting them kill her spirit. Benny was as fun and crazy as I thought he would be, but he had such a sweet side too. I fell so hard for Benny the way he tried to build up Karma, give her freedom, and a sense of self. Together they made such a great couple. They had a ton of chemistry, but the sweetness to their relationship was what really did it for me.
As we get closer to the end of the series,(I believe there is 3 more books) the plot is getting so intense. The Pax, Hope and Drake plot has me dying to know more. Hope like her mom Janie is torn between the two men(teens) in her life. When it came to Janie, Zane and Kalin I always wanted Zane to win Janie's heart. I liked Kalin and I was glad he redeemed himself in the end. The thing is this time around I am really liking Drake. He doesn't come off as crazy evil like most Kurjans. The chemistry between Drake and Hope is off the charts. there is still so much about Drake that we readers don't know and I can't wait to learn more. Pax is a cute guy and I wouldn't mind him ending up with Libby but I feel like he is not the one for Hope.
I loved all the parts with Dage, Emma, and Talen. I would love to get more time with the old gang in upcoming books. I also think it's time for the Seven to let others in on the secret. The whole Cyst army is creep af. The pressure is building with Ulric and the "Big Ritual" and I can't wait to see how it all unfolds. Although this book was action packed there was some really cute moments in it too. I loved the friendship between Benny and Mercy. The twins were really cute and Benny with the twins was swoon worthy. Quade, Garrett and the toothpaste had me laughing my butt off. God I love this whole world. Sam, Garrett, and hope's books are coming up and I really can't wait to get my hands on them. This series is an amazing series and I would recommend it to everyone. Start with book one Fated for the full world or Vampire's Faith for the new arc of the series. Personally I would suggest starting from book 1 because you don't want to miss out on all the yumminess that is Talen, Dage, and Jase!
I absolutely love Bones and Cat!! They are one of my all time favorite couples ever. I have reread their books so many times I have lost count. When it comes to this couple and this paranormal world I will never get enough. Reading The Other Half of the Grave was like coming home. I enjoyed every single word of this book. I loved getting to see things from Bones perspective. It made me fall more in love with him and I didn't think that was possible. Seeing Cat through Bones eyes added depth to her and that is saying something since I know I have reread the series at least 7 times. I didn't put this book down and read it straight through now I wish I could have more. As soon as the book ended I thought "I wonder what Bones' perspective is in other books like the Annette- Cat fight, chapter 32(if you know you know!) and the kidnap and torture of Cat from Max, and the whole Gregor thing. I've seen post from Jeaniene Frost saying she will be writing more Vlad books, and I can't wait to read them. Vlad is another one of my all time favorites, but I really REALLY hope Mrs Frost writes more books from Bones pov. I would read anything with Bones and Cat in it. Getting to live in their world again made me so happy. Now that I am finished with this book it has me craving more so I think I will have to reread One Foot in the Grave to pick up were this book leaves off. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves Bones and Cat and all who love Paranormal Romance, and I hope and pray there will be more Bones pov books in the future.
The sexual tension between Angus and Nari has been building since book 1. I had some high expectations for this couple. Angus has been obsessed with Lassiter to the point of being a broken drunk mess. Nari was this smart, classy shrink out of place with all the outcast agents on Force's team. I wanted her backstory so badly. I wanted to know why she was working with all those bad boys. I knew I would enjoy this book because Rebecca Zanetti is so talented, but I didn't know how much I would love this book. Angus and Nari were everything I hoped for.
Angus was just so deliciously tortured. I knew that Lassiter murdered Angus' sister, but the pain and guilt that this book gave us reader omg. No wonder Angus drinks to numb the pain. My heart bled for him. Nari's past was a bit of a surprise for me. I liked the amount of depth it gave her. In the other books I liked Nari, but she was always closed off. I felt like finding out her background made her real to me. Both super smart and stubborn it was fun watching Angus and Nari dance around each other, but OMG when they came together it was explosive. I loved every bit of their relationship.
This book kept me on the edge the whole read. It was almost non stop action. I truly didn't know what would happen next. I also didn't know who the killer was until it was revealed. Angus and Nari had more lives than a cat. Both kicked major ass too. I love a bad ass hero but omg when you have a kickass heroine it's so much hotter. There was tons of time with my favorite Wolfe. He's just so yummy. I enjoyed time with all the past couples. They feel like family so it's nice to see how they are all doing. I loved the ending. Well really I loved the whole book. I hope Jethro gets his own book. I totally recommend this book. I recommend the whole series.....actually I would recommend all of Rebecca Zanetti's book. She is an amazing author and I have never read a book from her that I didn't love.
Xavier, the 14th book in the Vampires in America series was a good and enjoyable read, but I really missed Raphael and Cyn in this book. I enjoyed the fact that the heroine was bad-ass like Cyn. As much as I enjoyed this book I felt like something was missing. I'm not sure what, but it was a bit off for me. Maybe it was because it didn't tie into the other American vampire lords working on a world alliance plot that has been going on for many books now or maybe it was that I didn't totally love Xavier. Whatever it was it made this book a good read but not a 5 star one.
Xavier was a hard one for me to warm up to. He was powerful, and loyal to those he cared for, but he was a bit too cocky for me. He came off pompous at times. I did like him and I liked how good he was to Layla, her family, and the little community he created but his arrogance was a turn off.
Layla was great. She was smart, tough, and was a no nonsense kind of woman. I like that she could not only take care of herself but Xavier as well. They made a cute couple I just wished they would of had a bit more time together for relationship building.
This book had all new characters. Which is good and bad. It's good that it can be read as a standalone. But it's bad because it feels out of sync with the series. I would have liked at least a phone call to Raphael to tie it into the series. I did really like Brian and Kerry from Layla's team. I liked that Brian loved Layla, but wasn't in love with her. He didn't step over the line and disrespect Xavier and Layla's relationship at all, and he was brave. I liked Chuy and Layla's parents too. I wish we would have got to see Layla's parents finding out that Layla and Xavier got mated. I was dying to know how her dad would have taken the news. The bad guy in this book was a bit of a wimp. The plot moved nicely and I was never bored. Overall a good book in the series but not one of my favorites.
So I'm a little late reading Once upon a Mail order bride and getting my review up thanks to getting Covid and having it kick my butt. Better late than never. I have been a fan of this series since Clay's book. I love reading about mail order brides and life back in the wild west and this series has both those. Ridge Steele has been my favorite since book 1, so finally getting his story was great. It was nice to take a step back from the stress of life and enjoy his love story.
Ridge was everything I wanted and more. I really enjoyed his back story and getting to know what made him the way he was. He had such a good heart and was easy to fall in love with. Addie was amazing and perfect for Ridge. Not only was she smart and pretty but brave and loyal too. She did what was right no matter the cost to her. They made a really cute couple.
The plot was really good, but I did take one star off because there was so much danger coming at the couple from both sides and I felt like it was a bit too much. With so much going on in the world it would have been nice to have a little bit more calm to the story. Still I loved reading it. Getting to see all the other couples and the kids. I think this was the last book in the series and that's sad because I would love to see the kids get married. If you are looking for a good read with a wild west flavor this is the book for you. Also I recommend you read the whole series because they are all good.
OMG I don't know how Grahame Claire does it but again I found myself unable to put down Trust Me until I was finished. It was so g 4 Hot as Holt Stars
OMG I don't know how Grahame Claire does it but again I found myself unable to put down Trust Me until I was finished. It was so good! From the first chapter with the shower sense I found myself laughing at the play between Holt and Baker. I loved reading of these two hurt people being brave and giving love a chance. I did take a star off because I got a bit annoyed with Baker and her fears, but I still really liked her. Holt was my favorite he really made the book for me. Their sexual tenson was off the chain. They made a great couple.
Can I just say that I love Holt's dad. I kinda hope he gets a story or maybe a novella. I loved seeing Trish and Andrew again and the kids are so cute. Holy crap that ending I wanted to beat the shit out of Holt's mom. I can't stand her. My heart bled for Holt and his whole family for the crap their pos mother put them all through. Overall I loved this book. It had angst, romance, sexy time, and made me laugh. I can't wait for Patrick and Marlow's book........more
I really wanted to love this book. The cover is beautiful and the synopsis sounded so good. Unfortunately I never felt the love between Sanyu and Shanti. Their relationship wasn't just a slow burn it was nonexistent. They never spent time together. Instead I found myself drowning in boring over the top details of royal life, and the politics of being the queen and king. I did like that Shanti wanted to make a difference. She wanted to make things better. That she stood for what she believed in and wanted to be a good queen. Sanyu on the other hand I didn't like that much. I felt he didn't have much of a backbone and let his advisor do all his thinking. It also bothered me how little he cared for or thought about Shanti. She could have been a chair for all he took notice.
By the time I warmed up a bit to Sanyu it was too little, too late. The advisor drove me crazy. I hated him so bad. I wanted him to get some real comeuppances for the crap he did but nope. The ended felt rushed, and the advisor issues got glossed over. While there were parts of the book I liked, overall it was just an okay and at times boring read for me. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I felt the love between the main couple or the advisor would have got what was coming to him. This is my first time reading Alyssa Cole and I would try her again but not this series.
Rebecca Zanetti never lets me down. Guardian's Grace the 12th book in the dark protectors series was so damn good. I have been looking forward to Adare and Grace's book for a while now. They semi-mated five years ago, but never consummated the mating. It was clear from the book Vampire's Faith that Adare and Grace had feelings for each other but like any good tortured hero Adare had issues. I had very high expectations going into this read and it met and exceeded them all.
Adare was so sexy. A Highlander of ole he had a dark past filled with pain, loss and duty. The pain of loss so great, the guilt crushing that he turned his emotions off. He didn't want to let anyone in to hurt him again. A loyal and honorable warrior he protected his people and tries to save as many enhanced females as he can. I loved watching his hard shell crack. Grace was a great heroine. She was smart, honest, caring, and a little bit sassy. A gifted photographer Grace had a way of looking deep into a person's soul through her camera. I loved that she was so down to earth and relatable. They made a really hot couple. I loved everything about them.
I really enjoyed the ongoing plot of the series. This book started a few years after the last book ended. Hope, Pax , Drake, and Libby are teens now. I keep trying to decide which boy I want for Hope but right now I can go either way. I really enjoyed seeing past favorite characters. Although I was a bit upset with the way the Shifter nation and Jordan Pride acted during the drama with the Realm. I was sad that I didn't get to see some Kayrs children. I want to see Jase and Brenna's kid, Conn and Moira, I want to see if Amber and Kane had kids I want to see if the King and Queen have more kids, And of course I need to know if Talen and Cara have more kids. I need more time with the past couples and the Kayrs family. Maybe a Christmas book or something, but I feel like we really need a family reunion like book. Anyways..... Benny OMG Benny. This book gave us readers a peek of Benny's mate and I just can't wait to get my hands on Benny's book. Really though I can't wait to get my hands on anything Rebecca Zanetti writes, because she is the best. I recommend this series to anyone that likes paranormal romance.
Suzanne Wright did it again. She is such an amazing author. Some how she turns out great book after great book. She has 5 different series now that I just love. Omens was so good. Keenan and Khloe have had this slow burn sexual build up for 5 books now and I don't know about anyone else, but I have been dying to get my hands on their book. Of course I loved it. It gave me everything I have been waiting for. Keenan was so sexy and protective. I loved that he also had this deeper side, a dark temper, past scars, and a playful side. As an Incubus it makes me just think sex but he was so much more. Although there is a lot going on in the sex department too.
Khloe made the book for me. She was so funny and crazy. I can't tell you how many times I laughed reading this book. Khloe was also loyal, smart, and kicked ass.
Khloe and Keenan were so great together. The bad guy and his army omg gross. I loved that there was never a dull moment in this book. Keenan and Knox had a bit of an issue of sorts and I wish we would have got more on that. Instead it was just kinda glossed over. I loved the girl nights. Most of all I really wanted more of Raini and Maddox. Maddox was so intriguing. I need more of him and soon. Asher omfg Asher was the cutest little man ever I need a lot more Asher. Maybe we could get another book with Knox, Asher and Harper so we could get a bit more Asher. HINT HINT. I recommend this book and series to anyone that loves Paranormal romances. I also recommend her other series The Phoenix Pack Series, Deep In Your Veins Series, The Mercury Pack Series, and The Olympus Pride Series which are equally amazing.
OMG I have been waiting for Wolfe's book since book one. God but I love that crazy ex Navy Seal. I knew his book would be amazing and I was right. From the start of the book, which started with Wolfe in leather at a sex club, I was hooked. Wolfe was sexy, protective and a bit nuts, but oh so yummy. Dana was smart, stubborn, and brave. They were very cute together. I loved the build up to their relationship. Both Dana and Wolfe's backstories were good, detailed and made me feel like I really got to know them. I just loved them both so much and thought they made a great couple.
The plot was great. The bad guy super evil. There was action, and plenty of romance. Wolfe's mission was hella good. I was fighting myself not to skip ahead just to see what happened next. Roscoe and Kat were funny and cute as ever. I loved the whole team and getting to see the close friendships within the group grow with each book. A few new people popped up in this book and I really liked them. Especially Dana's family. Force's ongoing story line got a bit more interesting. I can't wait to read his book. Overall this book was amazing, and the ending was so sweet. I loved every minute of this read and can't wait to read the next book.
