I’m a 70s baby, 80s child and a 90s teenager. My family and friends mean the world to me. I love most animals especially horse and dogs, but not snakes, never snakes. Writing is a great passion of mine. I love creating stories and characters, they help me escape from the world for a while and I hope readers feel the same. I am a huge fan of All Creatures Great and Small, Call the Midwife and Bridgerton. I love history and romance. I also write for children as Lily Mae Walters and adults as Florence Keeling.

Review By 

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews


First, I want to thank Charlie Dean and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review. 


YES!!! I Love You, Always, Forever all things related to the 90’s!!! This is a huge reason I adored Charlie Dean’s book!!! She took her readers down memory lane when things were oh so simple! I could not help but have a Koolaid grin on my face with all the pop culture references. 


The graphic designers did such a cute job with the cover graphics for this book. Just with one look you knew that it was going to be a fun read. 


Charlie wrote I Love You, Always, Forever from her heart and it showed through her writing! She allowed her readers to feel compassion, empathy, sympathy within many of the storylines. Charlie based her characters and storylines on her own personal life. Learning this made the book so much more meaningful. 


One thing I loved about the book Charlie took us back to the 90’s where we got to see Christian and the character Charlie’s relationship unfold. 


I was quite impressed by how up to date this book was with the topics and subject matters. She mentioned Covid and a lot of things that went along with it. I do 1000% agree with her on the GP’s not caring for patient’s like they used to. Besides that she was very up to date on Olivia Newton John passing! 


This was a beautifully written book that should be on your tbr list.

Prowl
Cara Dee
(The Game Series, #12)
Publication date: March 28th 2023
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, LGBTQ+, Romance

The Game Series • Book 12 • Sequel to Apex Predator • MMMM • Primal Play • D/s • Hurt Comfort • ADHD

In Apex Predator, Lane and Macklin headed down to South Florida for a wild week in the sun, but now it’s time to return to reality. Things back home might feel a bit…unsettled…for both men, and even more so when they notice two apex predators on the prowl.

Ty and Walker will take it from here, boys.

The Game Series is a BDSM series where romance meets the reality of kink. Sometimes we fall for someone we don’t match with, sometimes vanilla business gets in the way of kinky pleasure, and sometimes we have to compromise and push ourselves to overcome trauma and insecurities. No matter what, one thing is certain. This is not a perfect world—and maybe that’s why the happily ever after feels so good.

Goodreads / Pre-order

EXCERPT:

Walker McKenna

“Let’s not buy Macklin’s false confidence either,” Ty murmured. “We’re coming for them.”

A shudder ran through me, and I nodded once.

“I’m gonna give Macklin the day to think things over,” I decided. “If he doesn’t fess up about what’s wrong, I’ll show him tomorrow.”

“It’s a plan.” He kissed my cheek, and when he backed away again, the devil seeped into his eyes. “You grew up in the South, so you must’ve seen your share of snakes in your day.”

My eyebrows flew up. “Uh, sure. Yeah.”

“Well, plenty of them have their ways of attracting prey…”

Okay, he had my attention. “I’m listenin’.”

He smirked. “It’s time to drop some bait for the boys and see what sticks.”

Author Bio:

I’m often awkwardly silent or, if the topic interests me, a chronic rambler. In other words, I can discuss writing forever and ever. Fiction, in particular. The love story—while a huge draw and constantly present—is secondary for me, because there’s so much more to writing romance fiction than just making two (or more) people fall in love and have hot sex.

There’s a world to build, characters to develop, interests to create, and a topic or two to research thoroughly.

Every book is a challenge for me, an opportunity to learn something new, and a puzzle to piece together. I want my characters to come to life, and the only way I know to do that is to give them substance—passions, history, goals, quirks, and strong opinions—and to let them evolve.

I want my men and women to be relatable. That means allowing room for everyday problems and, for lack of a better word, flaws. My characters will never be perfect.

Wait…this was supposed to be about me, not my writing.

I'm a writey person who loves to write. Always wanderlusting, twitterpating, kinking, cooking, baking, and geeking. There’s time for hockey and family, too. But mostly, I just love to write.

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews


First, I want to thank Jack Jordan, Simon and Schuster  and Compulsive Readers for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.


OMG!!! Jack Jordan I must know where you got your inspiration for your totally addictive, twisted, emotionally and mentally charged Medical Thriller Do No Harm?! You will have me questioning next time I see a surgeon! Oh this book was pure genius and will have all of your readers talking!


You may want to clear your schedule for this one. Instantly from page one he hooked me into the story and by the time I looked up it was evening. It was just so good that I couldn’t put it down. 


Jack Jordan did a phenomenal job with his descriptions and his eye for detail. He made you feel like you were right there with the character. 


Do No Harm encorporated my love for all things medical, mystery, suspense, thriller, and a little emotional pulling on my heart strings. 


Jack threw in a few curve balls that I didn’t see coming at all that totally surprised me.

 The Good Patient

Appearances can be deceptive...

I was taught that life is pain. That love is pain. It was unavoidable. Acceptable. I never had anything, or anyone I could count on. Not really. Not even myself.

Until I met Dr Menon...


To the outside world Lauren Taylor’s relationship with her boyfriend Josh is perfect. He is supportive and loving and has been there for Lauren during her darkest moments. But behind closed doors, secrets and lies can be hidden…


And when Lauren wakes up in a hospital bed and is told Josh is missing, those secrets come bubbling up to the surface.

Because the police think Lauren knows exactly what’s happened to Josh; that she could even be capable of his murder…


The only person who believes in Lauren's innocence is Dr Menon, who has cared for Lauren as his patient for the last few weeks. He can't believe she's capable of murder.  He knows just how good she really is.


Isn’t she?

OH YES!!! The Good Patient is GOOD!!! Alex Stone is becoming one of my favorite authors! Her latest The Good Patient I found completely intriguing and fascinated me to no end!! She has a habit of writing her stories so creatively outside of the box! One reason she is becoming my go to author! 


Instantaneously Alex lured me into her fast paced storyline by feeling empathy and compassion to what was going on in Lauren’s life. You know my heart strings were pulled with this storyline! She hooked me and I had so many questions that needed to be answered just from the prologue itself. Needless to say, I binge read this book!!


If you were to ask me which storyline was my favorite it would have to be Lauren’s and her relationship with her Mother. That story was deep, intense, emotional, and there were times I wanted to reach in and hug Lauren! I appreciated how Alex went back in time to when Lauren was little then flash forward to modern day. 


There was a time in the book that Alex totally shocked and stumped me! I thought I knew the medical diagnosis Lauren had but I was so wrong! Alex taught me something new (besides that I am human and make mistakes). 


I loved how Alex took us back in time when Lauren was young to fast forward today. In doing so we got to learn more of her backstory and see the person she became today. 


By the end of the book you get a better picture of why Alex chose the title The Good Patient. Guaranteed you have not read a story like The Good Patient! This needs to be put on your TBR list and moved to the top! Oh and this book deserves way more than 5 stars!

#BookReview #MindToBend #AureliaKnight

 

Mind to Bend (Stolen Obsessions Book 1)


The last thing I expected when I married at twenty-two was to remain a virgin at twenty-four.


My husband didn’t want me, he married me out of obligation rather than love, and I thought nothing could hurt worse than that.


But my solution, marriage counseling, was only the beginning.


The first time I saw Shane, I knew I was boarding an express bus to hell because my husband never made me feel a flicker of that spark, and that was before we shook hands.

He doesn’t just want me; he wants all my firsts, my very soul, and damn it. I think he’s going to get them.

***Mind to Bend is a standalone dark romance and book 1 in a series of interconnected standalone. There is graphic adult content that may be disturbing to some readers. Please check content warnings.***


Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BDBDQ3QD


Aurelia Knight is a hot mess, doing her best to keep it together most days. Words are the greatest love of her life second only to her husband and sons. If she's not typing away, 

getting lost in her own world, she's reading and slipping away into the worlds of other writers. A caffeine addict who believes sleep is secondary to the endless promise of "just one more chapter".

First, I want to thank Aurelia Knight for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 


DANG!!!!! If you are looking for a HOTT, STEAMY and TABOO read well then let me introduce you to Aurelia Knight’s Mind to Bend!!! Your mind will be more than bent with this one let me tell you!! Oh I knew it was going to be spicy (and I am more than ok with that) but WOW!! 


Mind to Bend is NOT for those close minded readers out there. Oh no you must have a very open mind to read this book. That being said, there are trigger warnings attached that Aurelia posted. 


This is my first time ever reading an Aurelia Knight book so I wasn’t too sure what to expect. Like I mentioned before this is a very spicy book but OMG she went places that left me totally speechless! Like who takes their husband to couples therapy because they caught him masturbating?! I was literally laughing out loud with that one! Oh but that was just the beginning of the shocking things about this couple! I was literally shaking my head with this storyline!! 


The part I think I liked a little way too much was the taboo relationship between Shane and Serephina. It was hott, steamy, intense, shocking and oh so totally forbidden!! It is a part of the book I feel every reader who reads this will be talking about! 


I absolutely loved the beautiful and unique names that Aurelia chose for this book. 


Aurelia has a very vivid imagination!! I would just love to pick her brain and see how she came up with such a twisted storyline!!
