My rating: 5 of 5 stars

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

I have found a new Book Couple not just a new Boyfriend in Ciana Stone’s new book Wiley Johns Heartbreak & Hero’s Book Six!! Yes!! Wiley and Molly are my new fave couple of any of her books!! Both of them had amazing personalities that were off the charts sassy, funny and omg flirtatious!! Wiley just oozed sex appeal and you could see that on the cover of the book! But you could just tell by the way he acted and the way Molly was around him. Those two together made me smile ear to ear. You could not help love them together!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First, I would like to thank Ciana Stone for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

A Matter of Trust by Ciana Stone was unlike any of her other books I have read in the past. I am a huge fan of her mystery series as well as her HeartBreakers and Hero Series. However, not big into paranormal so much-but I thought I would give it a try since I love her other work. She actually surprised me with a unique paranormal twist that was not too far out there!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

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

Brody Judge Heartbreakers & Heroes Book 5 is Ciana’s BEST book in the series by far!!! I am a huge fan of Ciana’s and love all of her books and amazing cover’s I must add. However, this book went above and beyond anything she has brought to this series. So much so that I hope she continues down this writing path in her following books. This one with all the multiple personalities this one character had Ciana had you sitting on the edge of your seat to see what would happen next with her. Not to mention there were some shocking revelations too!! My head was spinning in a good way when I was done reading the book.

First, I want to thank Ciana Stone for providing with this book so I may bring you this review.

Deacon Johns Heartbreak & Heroes Book Tour by Ciana Stone not going to lie but piqued my interest by the cover alone this time around. I knew like the rest of the books in the series that this was going to be a good book. She didn’t disappoint. If you have not read her past books I suggest you do. Past characters like Etta and Jasper Jacks make an appearance in this book. I am so happy to hear they are still getting married.

Review: Diving for Pearls Part 5 By Melissa Storm

Diving for Pearls, Part 5 (The Pearl Makers, #5)Diving for Pearls, Part 5 by Melissa Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Thank you for Melissa Storm for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

As you all may know by know I am a very fond of Melissa’s writing and a huge fan of this series. I always look forward to the next installment. As we left the last book I could tell something bad was to happen. However, I thought it was to be worse than it actually was. So, I was happy with the outcome. Although, I think Daisy and Victor are way too young and immature this stage in their lives to be doing what they are doing. They are doing the most responsible thing they know how to do.

Begin AgainBegin Again by Christy Newton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First, I would like to thank Christy Newton for providing me this book so I may bring you this review.

Begin again by Christy Newton was such cute romantic story about two broken souls starting over again. This book was full with love, loss, tragedy, exotic animals, learning to let go and opening up your heart again.

After reading this book I have a serious craving for apple pie!! Maisie worked at the Diner where Ryan became a regular at. He could just walk in and Maise would know he wanted apple pie and milk. However, some days he would surprise her and order blueberry. I could picture Ryan and Maisie at the diner vividly.

Review: Wanted By Kelly Elliott

Wanted (Wanted, #1)Wanted by Kelly Elliott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was pleasantly surprised to see Kelly Elliott’s book Wanted in my local library. I am a follower of hers and many authors on Facebook. I was surprised because most Indie authors are not carried by public libraries.

Kelly Elliott’s book Wanted is the first book in the Wanted series. Saved, Faithful, Believe, and Cherished finish out the series. I was lucky to find Wanted, Saved, and Faithful in my library. They should be read in order and not as standalones.

Anyone who knows me knows I am a HUGE fan of the Royals and anything to do with Pop Culture. So, when I saw the cover of Twadra’s The Anti Cinderella book and read the synopsis oh I had to read it. Not to mention she had to release the book right before the big royal wedding!!! Pure genius on her part!!

Review: No, We Can't Be Friends By Sophie Ranald #BookonTour #Bookouture #NetGalley



He was perfect. Denim-blue eyes, a dazzling smile. And he hadn’t sent me a picture of his junk. Which is about as rare, these days, as a Dodo.

When Sloane met Myles, everything fell into place. He loved a Martini almost as much as she did, shared her passion for four-cheese pizzas, and made her laugh harder than any episode of Friends. She’d found The One at last and she could finally delete Tinder, forgetting all those waste-of-space men she’d never have to date again.
