Review: Givers (Upper Echelons Book One) by Casey Cox
Rating: 3.5🌈 Casey Cox is diving further into the billionaire romance trope with the first in Cox’s new Upper Eschelons series, Givers. I’m a fan of this author from the Vet Shop Boys and thought I’d see what sort of perspective they’d bring to this popular contemporary romance trope. There’s some good elements here with… Continue reading Review: Givers (Upper Echelons Book One) by Casey Cox
Review: Pressure (Lunar Wolves Book 1) by Kiki Burrell
Rating: 3.25🌈 I picked up Pressure hoping by reading the first of the Lunar Wolves books I’d get a better understanding of the universe and setting for Burrell’s stories and characters. Unfortunately, the answer is not really. I still don’t know if the world the events take place in belongs to humans AND lunar wolves… Continue reading Review: Pressure (Lunar Wolves Book 1) by Kiki Burrell

Review : Faeted Under Fire (Paranormal Investigative Service Book 1) by Cassidy K. O’Connor and Sheri Lyn
Rating: 4.25🌈 Faeted Under Fire was a wonderful find. The vibrant cover caught my attention and the imaginative storytelling is just so well done. Both authors are new to me, so I was excited to see what they brought to paranormal fiction. The universe building is sparse as far as how human beings and the… Continue reading Review : Faeted Under Fire (Paranormal Investigative Service Book 1) by Cassidy K. O’Connor and Sheri Lyn
Review: Cherries Worth Getting (Keith Curry’s Case Files Book 1) by Nicole Kimberling
Rating: 4.5🌈 Nicole Kimberling is such an amazing author. I adored her Bellingham Mysteries and then lost track of her writings. But happily I’ve found her again through her series about a other-realm investigator who used to be a chef. That’s Keith Curry’s Case Files. I believe the series started in a collection called Irregulars,… Continue reading Review: Cherries Worth Getting (Keith Curry’s Case Files Book 1) by Nicole Kimberling

Review: The Next One Will Kill You (An Angus Green Mystery, Book 1) by Neil S. Plakcy
Rating: 4.5🌈 I found author Neil S. Plakcy through his incredible Mahu series. Set in Hawaii, Plakcy’s knowledge of the islands, the many cultures, the patois and just everyday life as lived by those who are Hawaiian on a cellular level, made that a book experience that has stayed with me. So when I discovered… Continue reading Review: The Next One Will Kill You (An Angus Green Mystery, Book 1) by Neil S. Plakcy
Review: Aisle Be There (Runaway Grooms Book 1) by Charlie Cochet
Rating: 4.75🌈 I know I’m in for a fabulous time when I’m cackling at the very beginning of the story! Just pages in and my sides are hurting from laughing over the outfit and situation Gage Kingston finds himself in. It’s hilarious, realistically anxiety producing, and so well written that we’re drawn into Gage’s story… Continue reading Review: Aisle Be There (Runaway Grooms Book 1) by Charlie Cochet

They live together in a gorgeous restored Victorian called Big Boned Bertha. An elderly fabulous… Continue reading Review: The Husband Hoax (Accidental Love Book 1) by Saxon James
