Review: Unchain Me by Hayley Faiman

UnChain Me by Hayley Faiman
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

President of Savage Beast MC, Dragon fell into the problems his Dad had always warned him about. He got one of the hangarounds knocked up and is now a single dad. He wouldn’t change having his daughter for anything but he still would like to find the woman who could own his heart.

Bellarosa was taken away and forced into a life she didn’t want. Now she has a chance to have a different life, will the hardened Dragon be there for her or will she will her life continue to be someone else for the taking?

Gritty, a bit too much for me. It was hard for me to warm up to these characters. Overall idea of the story was good just a bit harsh for me.

Review: The Blacksmith Queen by G.A. Aiken

The Blacksmith Queen by G.A. Aiken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

With the Old King’s death, his sons have started off their quest to take the throne by killing one another and seeking out the prophesied Queen who is but a farm girl. Keely Smythe is more though she is a Blacksmith and when the Amichai and her long lost sister arrive claiming that Beatrix is the Queen from the prophesy all hell breaks loose. Caid, a surly man who Keely knows there is more too catches her interest but her main focus is protecting her family. The prophesy though is not all it seems to be and Keely finds herself in the brunt of everything swirling around her.

There is so so much more to this story that I cannot even delve into. Keely is a heroine you truly want to know. Caid is perfect for Keely. Filled with humor, action and several surprises. I would reread this book in a heartbeat. Thoroughly entertaining.

Review: The Tenth Girl by Sara Faring

The Tenth Girl by Sara Faring
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mavi arrives at a finishing school on ice and with a feel of foreboding. She is immediately swept into a mystery as well as certain rules in which she has to comply. As she begins her time at the school she finds that there is something sinister and every time she turns more questions that need to be answered.

This was an intriguing story that goes back and forth in time between Mavi and Angel. Angel is hard to explain because you really need to follow the story to put it all together. Complex story that had several twists. I thought the writing was easy to visualize. Unique story.

Review: The Royal Arrangement by Jeana E. Mann

The Royal Arrangement by Jeana E. Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Everly McElroy has been burned enough by men she was not to surprised to find out the man she was seeing was up to no good as well. However his bad behavior lead her to catching the eye of Prince Heinrich of Androvia. At the time she has no idea who he is but when he learns who she is he is out to capture the woman who has held his interest for far to long.

New to me author. This story had a spark that did not let up throughout. The chemistry between Everly and Henry is electric. I was completely enraptured with this one, look forward to more.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review

Review: Naturally Yours by Mallory Funk

Naturally Yours by Mallory Funk
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sophie is on the run from her abusive ex-fiancee who is in cahoots with her mother. She runs to the only memory she has of a time where she was happier, her Uncle Bear who is part of the Vicious Snakes MC. Sophie is put under watch with Colton “Trigger” James as her main form of protection. It isn’t long before their feelings for one another surface and Trigger becomes her man. However the threat to Sophie is still out there and with it will bring a destruction no one sees coming.

This has several surprises in it. A bit darker then the first three and the end was a shocker. I liked Sophie, she is strong but I think was very sheltered. Trigger lives up to what I thought he would be like from the other books. I think this one is probably the best in the series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Derek and Tara are surprised that they are about to take the next step in their relationship. Life has a way of throwing curveballs at you and they are going to navigate through with the help of their crazy family and friends.

This was a sweet story about Derek and Tara. They got together in the first book but this gives light to the back story as well as what happens to them.

Review: Undeniably Yours by Mallory Funk

Undeniably Yours by Mallory Funk
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Five years ago Olivia had a no names required one night stand with Aiden “Steal”. Aiden was in town for a run but never returned. That one night left a little boy and Olivia has been raising him for four years with the help of her brothers. Now she is moving to a different town for a job opportunity and finds Aiden again.

Aiden never forgot about Olivia, but he never expected the surprise of being a father. He wants to get to know his son and he wants a second chance with Olivia. What no one knows though is that a silent threat is looming and it could tear apart everything that they are building.

I liked this better then the first book. I thought that it was not quite a silly at times. Had a surprising twist that I thought was well handled. Great story, fun to read.

Review: Until Joe by C.P. Smith

Until Joe by C.P. Smith
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Joe Rouger always wondered if he would ever find the woman who would own his heart. After getting his ex pregnant, he married her and did right by his family. The moment the twins were out of the house he left his loveless marriage and tried finding a new path of happiness only to fall short. When he sees Bernice Armstrong the first time he is hooked, he knows he has found his BOOM. However he thinks she has a man and after some misunderstanding he gets his chance with Bernice. Bernice though has a powerful father who is determined to keep them apart and will stop at nothing to do it.

I am torn on this one. I loved Joe in Until November and always hoped he would get a story. This is an older couple story and I loved Joe, he was what I imagined. I did struggle with the Bernice-Father dynamic, it just did not make sense to me given Bernice’s age. Good story though..

He is heading out when he sees Gia boarding the ship for the singles cruise. Graham knows she is his one so he gets back on the cruise and is determined to woo his woman as quickly as possible.

Quick read that was fun. It was a bit too short for me but I thought overall a cute story.
