Who doesn’t love a paranormal romance series?  :3
By Steph Destiny
Reviewer of 2 Girls Book Reviews
Crescent Vendetta is the first book of a very promising paranormal series called Vendetta. I must confess I love this genre but this book is the cherry on the cake. The author built us a plot so believable and characters that are easy to relate to. I assure you that it doesn’t matter if we are talking shifters or not, you will be living every part of the plot with them without feeling the plot was forced. That, just by itself, is amazing and a true accomplishment. This story deals with a lot of topics such as romance, betrayal, violence and almost every hardship you can never imagine. Nevertheless, every piece of the novel is put together in such a way that it doesn’t feel exaggerated. I loved how two, unlike characters, found everything they needed to heal in each other.
This book makes you think about everything one must deal with their life. We see faces that we never thought would hurt us but the truth is that there is evil lurking around every corner but there is also light, hope, and happiness awaiting us. This story is full of self-growth, acceptance, and tolerance when it comes to our hero and heroine and it really touched my heart. I highly recommend this novel to any paranormal romance fan that loves to have some suspense, action, and a lot of drama in the mix 🙂

Outstanding way to spend time together with the ones you love!!

This is an excellent way to spend time with your (grand)children. I’m a fan of the Dragon Dreamer series, but you don’t have to be. Through this coloring book, we have also had conversations about the sea animals or mystical creatures in the pictures. There is always a situation to learn more about the world in which we live. Thank you for these beautifully created art pieces that we can color.

“Fun read. I recommend it.” – “Horse Tales” (Carson Reno Mystery Series, Book 4) by Gerald W. Darnell

Ger horse tales with gun and fire.png
All Carson Reno Mystery Series Books are standalone novels. It is not necessary to read them in any particular order.
It was a disaster beyond most people’s comprehension.
There was nothing left standing of the barn, it had burned completely to the ground. Among the rubble and smoking wood, you could see the smoking corpses – which had once been some of the finest thoroughbred stallions in the Tennessee and Kentucky area.
Unnoticed, among these ruins, were the burned remains of Aaron Nunamaker, owner of ‘Nunamaker Stables,’ and one of the best-known horse breeders and stud farm owners in West Tennessee.
Killing a human being brings the wrath of the law and the accompanying sorrow and grief from loved ones. Killing a helpless animal brings wrath that is unequaled to that associated with killing a person. This sorrow and grief continue long after the grief over human loss has left. Mankind will forget their own losses, but they never forget similar betrayals to animals. Odd isn’t it?
The fire had, obviously, been set and was a deliberate murder of innocent animals-horses. Horses that could not free themselves from their comfortable stable, horses that trusted their caregiver and felt safe in their home. Horses that died a terrible death, and horses that would never know how they became involved in such a terrible scheme and plan.
Tracks revealed that many of the doomed horses had been led from another barn to the one that was burned. This made it more than an act of revenge or rage, but one intended to destroy the animals, all at once, and all at one time.
Other than car and horse tracks, the clues were minimal or non-existent. Police roped off the area and considered it an accident or a rival/revenge act until they found the body. Then things changed.
He had been shot once at close range with a high powered rifle. The bullet entered his center chest and exited to some unknown parts of the barn or maybe the surrounding ground. His body was burned beyond normal recognition, like the horses, but his engraved Horseshoe ring, which he always wore proudly on his right-hand ring finger, made preliminary identification possible.
5-star review
Fun read. I recommend it.

As a native of the real town that is the setting for most of the Carson Reno adventures, I probably get more involved than the casual reader of mysteries. But, aside from being able to actually remember the locations in the book, the stories are logically devised and well written. Carson, as chronicled by Gerald, is fun to follow.

Book a Room at the Peabody Hotel

Having read my first Carson Reno novel, ‘Dead End,’ the 13th in this hard-boiled, detective Mystery series, I eagerly selected another—‘Shadows and Lies,’ the 16th standalone book. Drawn to the hallmark ringtones of the Sixties, and the aura of actual places cited by the author, I willingly booked a room at the Peabody Hotel for my reading sojourn.

The prominent Dumont family, proprietors of the prestigious Dumont Hotel chain under the auspices of Matthew Dumont, provide a strong case for Carson Reno to take on via his Drake Detective Agency at the Peabody. For starters, Matthew’s son Brigham’s third wife is missing. The first one died under mysterious circumstances. You’ll find out if the second was murdered by a serial killer or not.

Besides the whodunit, like Reno, you’ll want to know what else is going on—and why!

If all of the tantalizing tidbits of this novel aren’t enough for you—serial killers, a twenty-year-old armed robbery, murders left and right, greed, infidelity, lies, Mob influence, bogus security reports, and false identities— there are all the other hallmark ringtones of the Sixties you become privy to:

Constantly lighting up. Gumshoes wearing suits. Conducting biz inside a lounge or bar knocking back a few beers or Jack Daniels and coke. And, dig these character names: Cheese, Spider Webb, Tucker Baggett, Rags Tobin, and John Dho.

I highly recommend “tunneling” through ‘Shadows and Lies’! However, if Lydia Longstreet can’t get a straight answer from Carson Reno, I doubt any reader will either, as to why Marion Dumont’s pair of pantyhose was under his bed.

5-star reviewWhat a Wonderful Romance
By Theresa Atashkar
I love historical romance novels, and the addition of the paranormal aspect made it even more exciting! I can’t wait to read book two of this series!
The storyline moved along and got more exciting with every page, and I love to hear the descriptions of the women’s clothing, especially Troianne’s wedding dress. This is the time I should have been born! I loved this book and can’t wait to read “Diana’s Magic” soon.
Congratulations to the author on the release and success of her first Novel!

“I must say that it turned out to be a great decision.” – “Cross-Ties” by Carolyn M. Bowen

5-star review
Lucidity
I must say that it turned out to be a great decision.Wow, what an adventure! Admittedly, I’m usually not a big fan of these kinds of books (I tend to stick to the sci-fi and romance genres), but I decided to give “Cross-Ties” a chance and go into the read with an open mind, and I must say that it turned out to be a great decision. I could see early on, within the first few chapters, that the author is truly talented when it comes to weaving words into stories. The prose flows in a very smooth manner while conveying everything in a very vivid way – I personally found it easy to visualize many of the scenes and also empathize and understand the feelings of Leah, the protagonist. I highly recommend ‘Cross-Ties’ to readers looking for a genuinely immersive and adventurous read. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for future releases by Carolyn M. Bowen.

“Is the pull strong enough to keep them together?” – “MacKalvey House” (Time After Time Series) by Carol Ann Kauffman

5-star review

Is the pull strong enough to keep them together?
By Valerie Roberson
Kenneth MacKalvey is a wealthy man. He inherited the family business, he has written many books, he is an artist and owns a art gallery. But most of all, he is known for his rude, bad mouth, nasty self. His reputation on a scale of 1-10, is a 0.
Michelle Rosemount has only been in England for a short time. With a degree in Early Childhood Education, she left the states to start a new life. Working as a photographer for a historical magazine, she loves taking pictures of the manors, castles and ruins.
Michelle has read every book Mr. MacKalvey has written. She feels like she knows him , really knows him. She wants to be with him in every way possible. She deep down loves him. Kenneth heard her voice for the first time and knew that they belonged together and always have and always will. He is drawn to her.
Carol Ann Kauffman puts together the perfect English gentleman meets the beautiful American, but what she doesn’t do is make it sappy. She shows how a true drawl to a connection can be, that opposites do attract. Come on you two, get it together!
The love story of Kenneth and Michelle isn’t much different then most, on again, off again. But theirs has an evil red head to come between them and make matters way worse then expected. This red head relishes in all of it. All she wants is his name, money, house and children. Will she get any of it?
At one point when Michelle is swearing Kenneth off and needs a break from life, she heads to Italy with her best friend and aunt. She is enjoying the beautiful land around her, until there is a man set up for her. She gets very drunk, insults everybody and runs to the olive trees. This man follows and well. lets say they see the olive trees in a different way. This man stays in her life as a very good friend. He helps her start her own business and helps her to forget Kenneth by having her live with him, far away from Kenneth.
Who does Michelle end up with in the end? Well the ending was a huge surprise! I never saw that coming at all. Carol did a good job with subtitle hints along the way that I didn’t see until after I read the ending. Another fantastic story in the Time After Time Series! This series is a must read!

A sweet but very interesting love story

Shelby is shy but independent. A good business woman but a little naïve when it comes to some things.
Trent is yummy, cocky, funny, and sweet.
Drew is a lawyer. Enough said.
This book will keep your interest from the beginning. Not a dull moment.

Stupendous box set and ALL THE PROCEEDS GOING TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY!!
By Betty Olsen
I’ve read two stories so far in this box set:
STIRRING UP SOME LOVE by Linda Boulanger
Felicity Love is an Angel of Love and owns the Bakery of Love. She specializes in making cakes for the brides & grooms but adds something a little special for their forever happy ending. This one mission for Adelind Chusi (Felicity calls her the Bridezilla!) who is the Serpent Queen and the Groom, Dirk Herensuge who is a Druajen Dragon (he has the ability of reading others thoughts). Felicity doesn’t think they are right for each other, but her mission is to see they get their happy ever after. For the first time Felicity finds the groom very handsome and is unusually attracted to him, but he’s chosen his bride – or has he?
What a wonderfully sweet and romantic story this is. There’s a surprise I didn’t see coming! Loved it and the wonderful characters.

CUPCAKE KISSES AND DRAGON DREAMS
Kalliope Sugarbaker is a special and powerful witch. She has her own TV cooking show, Kalliopes Kupcake Kitchen with her specialty being Red Velvet cupcakes with something special in it. She’s been having sexy dreams about a handsome man named Murdock and can’t figure out how she knows his name.
Meantime, Murdock DeGireah, a two-natured Dragon (a Water Dragon & Fire Dragon) has been having dreams about this gorgeous woman. He has other important things to take care of, doesn’t need to dream of a woman. Unfortunately for him, the woman happens to be his mate as he finds out when he’s watching a tv network food show. The show happens to be Kalliopes Kupcake Kitchen, and he almost falls off the chair when he sees the woman of his dreams. He finally gets it – she’s his mate, and she is a witch. Unfortunately for him, there is a wrinkle. There is a horned God of Fertility, Wealth & Wild Animals named Cernunnos who has been waiting for a very long time for her. He’s claiming her for his mate. What else can happen or go wrong? Read for yourselves and find out
You’ll love this thrilling, suspenseful, humorous and sexy romance. Fantastic storyline and characters. Even have some old friends showing up in this story!
Now to read the rest!!

Escaping her drug-addicted mother to the comfort of a better life with her paternal grandparents, Kaia worked her way through college and became a success before the age of thirty. Along the way, she fell for Bobby E., lead singer of the rock band, Stone End. Knowing he only saw her as a kid sister, she turned her energy toward achieving success.
Filled with tension and stress and needing to relinquish control, Kaia takes a vacation for a month and answers a job ad for an assistant to Martin, who she finds out is a Dominant, for a month. She never sees his face, and after a rough patch, in the beginning, Kaia enjoys every moment she spends with Martin.
After being released as Martin’s submissive, Kaia discovers Bobby felt the same as she did but can love alone keep them together? Kaia wants Bobby, but she needs what Dominant Martin gave her and soon wonders if she and Bobby were ever really meant to be, especially after tension and stress take her over, again.

THIS ONE IS RYANNE’S BEST!
I loved everything about this one, and I want more! There’s a huge surprise in here that I WON’T spoil but it shocked everything in me to read it. I had no clue this book was going there. Kaia and Martin and Bobby are the perfect triangle. That Martin needed. His ass whipped for his mess! Bobby was on my bad list for a minute, but he pulled it in. The part where she confesses something to Bobby had me confused, but soon I realized that she did do something horrible to him first. It took me a second because I can be thick at times but yeah, I saw her wrongdoings too. This is a great read, and I really have no clue why Ryanne Anthony isn’t more famous. Can’t wait for her next book!!!!!!!!
