Review: The Rogue of Islay Isle

Image
The Rogue of Islay Isle by Heather McCollum My rating: 5 of 5 stars Cullen Duffie, the new MacDonald is determined to prove he’s not like his father and that his grandfather didn’t make a mistake in picking him over his uncles in being the next chief. He’s determined to protect his clan against the English that want to overrun them. One morning, after a terrible storm, he finds a woman has washed ashore. When she comes to, she has no memory of who she is and what she’s running from. Cullen must decide if she’s worth going against his clan to save her or if he should just give her up and turn her over. This book captured me right from the beginning. The story really pulled me in. I loved both Cullen and “Rose”. I loved how Rose’s identity slowly unraveled but none of it mattered to Cullen. The interactions between him and his cousins, Errol and Broc where hilarious. They had me laughing out loud as I read them. I can’t wait to read more from this auth

Review: Tradition Be Damned

Image
Tradition Be Damned by Rebecca Royce My rating: 4 of 5 stars Anne has been part of a mystic Sisterhood since she was taken from her family as a baby. Unfortunately she’s always been a bit different from the other sisters. There are ways a sister is supposed to act that Anne just can’t do. When she finds out her five guards, Bryant, Mason, Garrett, Kieran and Milo, might not hold her in as much disdain as she thinks, she decides to go on a journey for them. She doesn’t know that his journey is going to change her destiny. Another great book by one of my favorite authors, this is a new series and definitely a bit different from her other books. Yet it holds certain elements that are found in her other books that I just love. I really loved watching Anne slowly figure things out about herself, particularly when her true purpose finally comes to light. The author did a good job with making each guard a bit different from the other. My only problem was th

Review: King's Captive

Image
King's Captive by Amber A. Bardan My rating: 5 of 5 stars Sarah Mercedes has been trapped on a private island for three years by Julius King. She’s got less than one month before she’s trapped with him forever. The problem is that he’s slowly managing to slither his way into her heart. When I read the description of this book, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to read it, but since I’d just read a story from this author in an anthology that blew me away, I knew I had to try it. All I can say is WOW. This was a story I couldn’t stop reading once I started. I read it late into the night because I couldn’t sleep without knowing how it ended. I was so in tune with everything Sarah was going through, I didn’t want it to end but I wanted it to hurry so I knew how it ended. I can’t wait to read more from this author. I highly recommend. **I voluntarily read and reviewed this book View all my reviews

Review: Fragility Unearthed

Image
Fragility Unearthed by Rebecca Royce My rating: 5 of 5 stars Malcolm is missing. Levi is taken. And all the light from the world has gone with them. This is the third book in this series and I absolutely loved it. I was so drawn in, that I couldn’t put it away to even go to sleep, making it to work on just 4 hours of sleep. With the first two books, Kendall met Malcolm and learned about what he meant to her and how important she is to the scheme of things. In this one, we watch her struggle as the end comes closer and, not only is she without Malcolm, but she is unfortunately basically helpless. I absolutely loved it and can’t wait for the next one. I highly recommend it. **I voluntarily read and reviewed this book View all my reviews

Review: The Reluctant Cowboy

Image
The Reluctant Cowboy by Kate Pearce My rating: 4 of 5 stars Chase Morgan has avoided the Morgan ranch for years. When his grandmother calls him home though, he can’t turn her down and takes a much needed break from his job, while trying to convince his grandmother to sell the place. January Mitchell is staying at Morgan ranch, helping with the chores while researching it’s history. She and Chase butt heads while she’s determined to help his grandmother turn the ranch around and he just wants to get rid of it. This was a pretty straight-forward story about a former cowboy-turned business workaholic coming home and dealing with his ghosts. There were some pretty hot scenes between Chase and January. There wasn’t a whole lot of drama, except for trying to change Chase’s stubborn mind. Pretty good read. I recommend. **I voluntarily read and reviewed this book View all my reviews

Review: Eternal Ecstasy

Image
Eternal Ecstasy by Setta Jay My rating: 5 of 5 stars Hroarr, the ruling God of Thule, is preparing for the upcoming battle against the Destroyer of Worlds. Because of his power, he’s at the point where not much affects him emotionally anymore. Then he senses Sirena, the last of the Guardians to not have found her mate. When Sirena figures out that Thule is her mate, she’s not exactly happy, considering he’s half barbarian. However, when she’s forced to stay with him, she starts to see the good in him, as well as what he has to deal with to save his own planet. Hopefully, between them and the others, they will be able to put an end to the Destroyer of Worlds. First off, I need to start by saying I’ve really enjoyed this entire series and I’m sad to see it end. It’s another one where the overall theme is steeped in Greek mythology, but the author does such a great job that I can just really enjoy it. In this book, not only do we see the final Guardian

Review: Wolf Moon

Image
Wolf Moon by Lisa Kessler My rating: 5 of 5 stars Luke Reynolds is trying to find a place for himself now that he’s the last member of his pack without a mate. While out on a drive, he stops at a broken down van where he finds Raven, a fellow wolf in need. Raven left her cruel pack in search of help for her and her sister with the closest pack. After her van breaks down, a man pulls up to help her. When Raven senses he’s also a wolf, she’s not sure if she should trust him after everything she’s been through. I’ve read a couple of the books in this series, so I’m already pretty familiar with this world. This one was just as good as the others. It’s obvious from the beginning that Raven and Luke are meant for eachother, especially when he puts his life in danger to protect her until the end. I really loved watching Raven through the whole thing as she basically goes from victim to a survivor who finds happiness. It’s another great book by a great autho
