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.

I have wanted Lincoln's story since Crash & Burn ended. He was just so closed off and mysterious. I couldn't wait to get to know what made him tick. I loved Lincoln just like I thought I would. I also really loved Eric he stole the show for me. The relationship between Lincoln and Eric was so cute and heart melting. Lexie was a bit harder for me to warm up too. I could understand were she came from but at times I felt she was too judgy and a bit harsh on Lincoln.
I need to say that I hated and I do mean hated both Lincoln and Lexie's fathers. Other than the fathers I loved the close family inactions. The plot for the most part was really good, though I really needed more romance. This book was a total slow burn, just a bit too slow for me which is why I gave it a 4 star rating instead of 5. The ending of this book. OMG why do you do this too me Grahame Claire?????

I didn't really care for Jackson who didn't notice Willa for 9 whole damn years. Then he keeps messing up her name calling her willow. I also couldn't stand that Willa was a big doormat that would let her man treat her like crap, push her away, disappear in the middle of the night for hours and come home smelling like perfume and alcohol, but instead of asking about it or getting mad and sticking up for herself she pretends like everything is great. I hate cowards in books. She wasn't timid, she was a coward. I didn't think much of Jackson either. I didn't get them as a couple and I didn't care for the plot so yeah I will not be finishing this series. ...more
Only when it's us, was my first book by Chloe Liese. It may be my last. The premise of the book sounded so good, but execution left much to be desired. I was excited thinking I was getting a story about a hearing impaired bear of a man that has a special bond with the girl who accepts him just as he is thing, but that isn't what I got. While I loved Ryder, enjoyed his strong damaged silent type I couldn't stand Willa. She didn't come off as a strong independent woman, like she says she is over and over, but more like a overly dramatic bitch.
I'm sorry but she drove me nuts. She made everything a huge deal. She flipped out on the hero every five minutes. Willa got mad at Ryder for stupid shit, but refused to tell him, and had over the top daddy issues. She didn't deal with any of the problems in her life. She came off as a coward most of the time. For a strong independent woman, she was super dependent on her mom. She came off like a high schooler instead of a woman in her 20s. I found Willa very unlikable and didn't want Ryder with her. While Ryder was there for her when she needed him, and accepted her for the bitchy hot mess she was, Willa didn't give Ryder any support, pushed him away, and got mad at him for doing the same shit she was doing. She ruined the book for me. I may try another book by this author but if all her female leads are written like Willa I'll be bouncing.

I have seen book one's cover a lot lately, but didn't really know what it was about just a hockey romance. Going into this blind I didn't really care for the novella. It was all sex and no plot. I felt no connection because there was no connection. I love smut as much as the next dirty girl but damn a sprinkle of plot would be nice. On top of that the cringe was high in this book. Who TF meets someone and within a hour or so lets them fuck you in any hole with no protection. EWW.
I mean come on Girl you're a doctor what about stds? You don't even know the dude's name and your sharing body fluids without any thought of safety. Damn
This is my second book by Laura Pavlov and I really loved it. The Reynolds family are very cute. Love their group texts. I didn't think I wou4.5 Stars
This is my second book by Laura Pavlov and I really loved it. The Reynolds family are very cute. Love their group texts. I didn't think I would like Georgia as much as the others siblings because in the first book she seemed kind of dizty, but I really loved her. She was playful, fun, but smart and a hard worker. I love that the MCs in this series so far are honest and direct they don't have stupid miscommunication issues. Maddox was so yummy. He was perfectly grumpy without becoming a asshole and he was sexy and caring which made him the total package. Maddox and Georgia made a great couple and I really enjoyed reading this book. I can't wait for the next one. ...more

This is my first book by Willow Aster and it was a okay read for me. I liked the hero. He was good in a kinda cheesy way. I was annoyed with the heroine. She acted like such a bitch to the hero for something that wasn't his fault and she was a jerk for far to long while he was bending over backwards to be nice to her. I don't know what is was about this book but something felt off or generic and I didn't really get into it. I think it might have been a bit on the cheesy side. I do think I would have enjoyed it more if I liked the FMC. I may try another book by Willow Aster and see what I think. Overall okay 3 stars...more
I seen this was a movie on Netflix so I thought I would try the book first and 2 Ten years too late stars
there will be Spoilers all over this review
I seen this was a movie on Netflix so I thought I would try the book first and if I liked it I would watch the movie. Guess what I'm not watching the movie. I really didn't like this book. Why they would make a movie out of this book is beyond me. The whole premise of the book is that Liam goes off to be a rockstar but still loves his high school sweetheart that he left behind. That sounds good until you read how Liam does this and the flimsy reason why.
I'll start with Liam. Damn but I didn't like him at all. He is suppose to be a rich high school football star that has a once in a lifetime love with his girlfriend Josie. He makes all these plans and promises, telling Josie he wants to marry her kids NFL career the whole 9 yards. Then the author wants me to believe that after meeting his grandma for the first time, she tells him to follow his dreams so he just drops out of college, gives up football that he has loved and played for years, breaks up with the love of his life gf without telling her why or anything just a see-ya, cuts ties with everyone he knows, family, best friend, gf everyone and runs off to become a huge rockstar. The book opens with him waking up in bed with another of tons of women he has slept with since leaving the love of his life. He of course treats this one night stand like total shit because she was just a nameless body. The fact that he left without telling her why or asking her to go with him makes him a huge pos in my opinion. He not only just out of the blue leaves her like nothing but he changes him phone number and doesn't take any of her calls. Stays gone for 10 years without a single word to anyone, but I'm suppose to believe that Liam loves Josie so much that after fucking anything he could for 10 years Josie's is the only one that meant anything and they were all pain pills to help him cope with the pain he unnecessarily and selfishly caused himself and everyone that loved him.
Josie is just as bad in my eyes. She is a huge twat that cheats on a man that has loved and supported her and her son for years. She selfishly hides the info from her son that Liam is his dad after they started getting close. She yells at her son and forbids him to talk or see Liam like a toddler having a fit. Josie came off very whiny, immature and very one dimensional. I didn't feel her love with Liam or Nick to be honest.
Nick was even hard to like. He acted like such a dickweed when Liam showed up that it was hard to care when she cheats on him with Liam. I swear they all acted like their 16 year old.
Add all that to a weak plot, a rushed pace, random time jumps and flashbacks and this book was just unpleasant as hell to read. I have never read this author before and I don't think I will again. I just can't believe of all the great books out there this one got turned into a movie. Just sayin!!! Forever my Girl my ass!...more
I liked Nash and Maddie's story better than Holt and Wren. I was really feeling this book for most of it. CC seems to be following a May have Spoilers
I liked Nash and Maddie's story better than Holt and Wren. I was really feeling this book for most of it. CC seems to be following a pattern in these books, but some times formulated plots work for me. I don't know how I feel about this formula yet. I really dislike the hero acting scared. Still there is something about this series that keeps me wanting to read more. The reason It dropped from a 5 to a 4 star read for me was the amount of bad guys. I mean come on how many crazy asses are out to kill someone? If it was just her ex and her dad ok but the end with the surprise bad guy was just too damn much. On to the next book! ...more
I should have never finished this book! Never...... I knew about 2 chapters in that this book wasn't going to work for me but stupid me I pushed throuI should have never finished this book! Never...... I knew about 2 chapters in that this book wasn't going to work for me but stupid me I pushed through and damn I wish I could delete this book from my brain.
I didn't know going into this that it was a poly relationship or I would have never started it. I don't mind poly when I'm in the mood for it but for the most part it's not my cup as I never learned to share.
I really liked Jake and the way Rachel acted like he wasn't enough and she needed more than him made me hate her. I liked the other guys too which made me feel like they all deserved better.
The cringe in this book is off the charts. Rachel was the team Doctor that was fucking a number of patients. That is not cool on top of that the slut shaming of "Puck bunnies" is hypocrisy at it's finest. Hello the unprofessional doc fucked Jake within a few hours of meeting him in any hole with no protection not even knowing each other's name, but yea the puck bunnies are total sluts. I'm sure the men had no choice to fuck said puck bunnies. Men are never sluts. They're just taking what's thrown at them .
The descriptive words used in this book gave me second hand embarrassment. I don't shame kinks everyone can do their own thing but this was so over the top it was like watching a cheesy porn. I felt like Rachel pushed the men to do things they really didn't want to especially Mars. I can't believe I made it through this whole book without puking or stabbing my ears out. It's bad so bad.
