Power Play (Astoria Bay Thunder #1)Power Play by C.J. Cartwright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brynn Mackintosh has moved to Astoria Bay for a fresh start after her divorce, she has a plan to become a professional photographer and follow her dreams. For Brynn she was optimistic about this life changing choice until all her efforts are not bringing in the amount of customers she needs. Then she gets a photo shoot that brings her business doing a calendar for Astoria Bay Thunder the Hockey team. This is a dream come true but when she realizes the team captain is Levi Fawkes it is with mixed feelings.

Levi always regretted the one who got away, seeing Brynn he realizes she is the girl he has thought about for years. Can Levi convince Brynn he is worth a second chance?

This book was a lot of fun. I enjoyed the chemistry between Levi and Brynn, their introduction is not smooth sailing and it was riddled with humor. Brynn is feisty and the banter she has with the other characters is hilarious. Levi is the broody one and he owns it throughout the book. Wonderful start to a new series.

Body Checked (Astoria Bay Thunder #2)Body Checked by C.J. Cartwright
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bridger McKelty is in career crisis, his bad boy ways have caught up to him and the Astoria Thunder Hockey team are wondering if a trade is in the horizon. Wanting to clean up his act, his agent makes a few suggestions on how to transform Bridger into a reformed playboy. His first big task is organizing a calendar with his team for charity. The he meets Tia Ferris, she is the assistant to the photographer and peaks his interest. He should stay away but the sassy Tia makes it difficult to do so. As friends become something more Tia knows it is all going to crash around her, but could it be that this time she could be wrong?

There is a lot to this book especially when it comes to Tia’s past. I thought the chemistry between Bridger and Tia was sizzling. They pull you in and you just keep turning the page of the book because you want to see what happens next. Terrific story.

Liberty Valley Love, Book 6


A Time-Travel, Paranormal Western Romance

Date Published: June 14, 2022

 Publisher: Satin Romance


photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

  

The oldest of the Jamison triplets, hereditary witch and criminal defense attorney, Astra Jamison knows more about the laws of magick than her two sisters. She serves the Goddess but believes those who hurt and harm people who can’t defend themselves should be punished, abhorring it when innocents suffer. She is always willing to dole out her kind of justice to anyone who offends her, often sending them to gruesome deaths. When she and her sisters open a time portal to 1888 Liberty Valley to save two people from a serial killer, the last thing she expects is to have the wizard she views as an age-old enemy return, seeking retribution for sins she committed in the past.

Wizard and healer in more than one life, Rowdy Tall-Deer struggled to survive when his soul-matched mate arranged his murder time and again, having rogue shape-shifters attack and eat him alive. Discovering a time portal that leads to the 21st century and the witch who betrayed him means making new plans. Does he opt for vengeance or attempt to learn the truth behind her machinations? Nothing is as it seems when her demon father becomes involved, determined to continue a war that began eons ago.

Will love finally conquer evil or is history doomed to repeat itself for their next life?

Princess? …I Think Not!
Ashley Brooke Robbins
(A Princess Series Novel)
Published by: Inkspell Publishing
Publication date: March 14th 2017
Genres: Contemporary, Young Adult

The Royal Family Just Got a Little Bigger….

My name’s Baily King and I’ve always considered myself different—liking dead roses, cemeteries, reading fully clothed in the bathtub, and howling at the moon whilst dancing naked under it. But, when my grandma, a woman I scarcely remember, comes for a visit, she opens her mouth and my weird world crashes down all over my combat-booted feet.

See, dear Gram is dying and wishes for me to accept my royal name. Turns out she finally left a small village south of Ireland—a village that her and her husband rule. Pfft. No pressure.

Bam, you’re a Princess. Wear your tiara and shut up.

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / iBooks / Kobo


Author Bio:

Ashley’s favorite things in life are mythology, history, things that go bump in the night, and everything mystical. One day when she was a teenager, she couldn’t find a book she wanted to read, so she decided to write it herself. And, so it began because she’s twenty-six now.

You’ll most likely find her with her two dogs, bringing something to life, a world through a story, a creature through art, or …something else. Like strong coffee.

Review: Outlaw’s Jewel by Ciara St. James

24 Friday Jun 2022

Posted by ehmusings in Uncategorized

Outlaw's Jewel (Hunters Creek Archangel's Warriors MC Book 6)Outlaw’s Jewel by Ciara St James
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Outlaw made assumptions the day he saw Tarin walking out of Bear’s room. At the time he had no idea that Tarin was actually Bear’s daughter, no one even Bear knew about her. Since then Outlaw has been wanting to get closer to Tarin, but Tarin is determined to stay away and leave. Outlaw has other ideas though and when he gets his chance he takes it, the only problem in their new relationship is that both Bear and Outlaw want to understand Tarin’s past but what if Tarin doesn’t want them to know?

This was another great one in the series. This was a bit darker then the other books, Tarin has a horrid past filled with deception and cruelty. I liked Outlaw initially you want to smack him upside the head but he redeems himself. I thought their chemistry was off the charts.

Until May (Until Her/Him, #11)Until May by Aurora Rose Reynolds
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

May Mayson signed up for a dating app thinking she has finally met the one only to be stood up and then find out the picture of the man whose photo has been looking at is a famous soccer player. Being catfished is a huge blow to her self esteem and she decides single life is just fine for now. That is until she ends up meeting Aiden Bender, the ex-soccer player and he makes his interest known. He feels connected to May, May wonders if it’s too good to be true. That all changes when it looks like May has a stalker, Aiden isn’t going to let her go he knows she is the one. Can they figure out who is after May before it is too late?

This was another absolutely wonderful addition to the Until Her/Him series. May is the shy one in the Mayson family. She is adorable, she has a back bone that she uses quite a bit with Aiden. Aiden is smitten from the get go, I really enjoyed this couple and am curious is some of the side characters will get a book. 5 Stars.

Blurb:

“𝙏𝙤𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙢𝙣 𝙛𝙪𝙣!”


That’s what Vanessa Paige thought on her way out the door after an argument with her fifteen-year-old niece, Simone.


Vanessa took her niece in a few months ago after the sudden death of her half-sister, Monique. The transition from single life to parental guardian is beyond difficult. They share a small apartment above the bookstore she co-owns with her best friend, Whitney Brown, and butt heads and bump into each other daily.


Vanessa has been looking forward to the Hope Ridge High Twenty Year Class Reunion for weeks, mainly because her best friend’s older brother, Will Brown, is picking her up.

The night of her dreams turns into a nightmare when she returns home and discovers Simone has gone. There’s not a trace of her left in the apartment. It’s as if she vanished into thin air.

While the good folks of Hope Ridge come together to search for Simone, Vanessa is distraught. Simone’s disappearance leaves her with more questions than answers. Someone is lying. Someone knows where Simone is, and what happened the night of the reunion. Someone has committed the ultimate deception.
