Review: Storms Flame by Ciara St. James

Storm’s Flame by Ciara St. James
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Storm knew the moment he say Bryony she was going to be his, he also understood she needed time to come to terms what happened to her and heal before making his feelings known. Now the time has come and he makes it clear what he is wanting with Bryony but is she ready to take a chance with Storm?

This was terrific, I hope there are stories coming for Bryony’s brothers because I was definitely intrigued by them. I had been waiting to see what would happen with Storm and who he would end up with and this one did not disappoint. I enjoyed every minute of this book. Probably best in the series thus far.

Review: No Rep by Lani Lynn Vale

No Rep by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Taos has always been a silent partner to his best friends gym Madd CrossFit. When he is asked to coach a class, he is not a happy camper but when he sees Fran he is intrigued. Fran is the reason for this particular class and she has a horrific past that has kept her living in a shell for the past couple of years but with her sisters help Fran is hoping this helps her gain more of her old self back.

Taos knows that Fran is something special and wants more time with her but as a former Detective he has been asked to help with a serial killer case that seems to be ramping up. Taos is dividing his time between Fran and the case but the more time he spends with Fran the more he knows she is his future. Can Fran find a new beginning letting go of the past with Taos or will a threat tear them apart.

I was not sure how this series would go because I don’t know a lot about Cross Fit but it was explained thoroughly through the book and you are rooting for Fran as she begins her journey. There is a lot to this story and the chemistry between Taos and Fran was fantastic. Loved all the characters and cannot wait for the next book.

Review: Bull’s Duchess by Ciara St. James

Bull’s Duchess by Ciara St. James
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bull never planned to find a woman again that would have him looking at a happily ever after again. He raised his daughter after losing his wife when she was young and as President of the Hunters Creek Archangels Warriors MC, his focus has been on his club. When he meets Jocelyn after helping her daughter home, he is interested but is she?

Jocelyn really has always put her daughter first after her parents kicked her out when she got pregnant in her teens. She has spent that time building a career but when Bull asks her out, she decides to see where it would lead. The problem is Bull has lived a full life, while Jocelyn has sheltered hers. Can she learn to trust Bull and what happens when they decide to take the next step?


Out of all the books this is my favorite. I reread it four days later because it was that good. I liked that the issues Bull and Jocelyn work through were real issues I could see a split family could have. I also liked the story between Devyn and Ace. Terrific read.

Review: Smokes Tigress by Ciara St James

Smoke’s Tigress by Ciara St. James
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Smoke meets Everly when she strides in and helps with an investigation his club is doing, but as part of the Dublin Falls Archangel MC Smoke doesn’t trust easily. He quickly realizes Everly is the Dark Chameleon, a computer genius who know one knows the identity too.

When they get a call for an asset needing help, he never expected it to be Everly. The group she works for believes her identity has been blown and needs a place for her to lie low. Problem is Smoke is torn between wanting her and not trusting her. He quickly realizes she is his game changer, but convincing her is another matter. She agrees to give him a shot but when he goes all alpha male on her he realizes Everly is just as strong as him but he is going to also handle her with care as she has triggers and can easily slip out of his hands forever.

There is a lot more to the story and a few new characters introduced. I really enjoyed this one, I thought Everly was a fascinating character and when Smoke makes a mistake he has to work to get her trust back but first he has to get her to talk to him. Great story.

Review: Wallflower by Jessica Prince

Wallflower: A Small Town Romance by Jessica Prince
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gavin “Stone” Hendrix knew that Willow Thorne had a huge crush on him, he also knew he would never go there. Willow is shy, blushes easily and is not a one night stand type of gal and Stone knows that he will never be in a long term relationship with any women after his upbringing.

Willow has a huge crush on Stone but she also has a lot going on with her life and her ailing father. She has been picking up the slack for her sisters and not putting herself first, after a moment that has her realizing nothing will change if she doesn’t she gets help from her new friends.

Stone doesn’t know what has hit him but he is fighting himself where Willow is concerned and knows he needs to make a decision, but could he be too late?

Loved every moment of this book. Willow is a fantastic character and I thought Stone was like a brick wall who is struggling with memories from his past and denying himself a future. Love this series, every book has been spectacularly different.

Review: Kitty Kitty by Lani Lynn Vale

Kitty Kitty by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Absinthe “Sin” Solomon went to prison because he saved Blaise Mackenzie from a fate that would hav altered her life forever. He did so knowing he would do anything for her but when Sin receives an offer he can’t refuse to get out of a jail, he has a second chance with Blaise.

Blaise has followed Sin during his prison time, she knows he is not happy with her choice of keeping tabs on him but she also knows he was meant to be hers. What happens when Sin gets out and seeks Blaise out, can they find a happily ever after?

There is so much that goes on in this story I am not going to even delve into. I think out of all of the characters Sin is the most alpha male next to Lynn and Silas. Sin just oozes masculinity with every page he is on. Loved his pairing with Blaise and she was everything I hoped her character would be. I hope there is a series with Sin’s brothers because they are fascinating. Another fantastic read from this author.

Review: One Heart Remains by C.P. Smith

One Heart Remains by C.P. Smith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nate Jacobs has wanted Poppy Gentry since the first time he saw her, but he believes that he cannot be with her because of the sins of his father. His father was an abuser and while he has no desire to ever hit a woman, he is worried it is in his blood.

Poppy believes she is a broken woman, her past has a secret she has never shared and now that her Father has suddenly reappeared in her life and she finds out a few other secrets about her life she knows she would never be good enough for Nate. However, when Nate finds Poppy has gotten herself in danger, the alpha male in him decides he needs to protect her in every way and keep her safely by his side.

This was a lot of fun, it wrapped up the series nicely and I hope more books come although the three books really center on 6 characters that are matched up. I liked Poppy’s story, had a lot of surprise turns in her story. Nate is probably the most alpha male of the characters in this series. He is intense but you just fall for him. Great series.
