Sweet romance ~ #Spotlight on Melinda Dozier

Here's another great author in my ongoing quest to introduce my fabulous critique partners!  Melinda Dozier writes contemporary romance, and she has the sweetest characters. You'll love them!

I 'met' Melinda through www.critiquecircle.com last winter.  We quickly realized we had a lot of the same likes and dislikes and similar habits; we definitely share a brainwave. Despite our personal similarities, she writes in a vastly different style than me and it's a lot of fun to s...

#BookReview ~ Broken Build by @AyalaRachelle

New Romantic Suspense Technothriller

Rachelle Ayala's Broken Build. 

My rating: 4 stars

I read Broken Build as Rachelle worked it through the critique groups at www.critiquecircle.com. I then acted as one of her beta readers for the final product. Below is my Amazon and Goodreads review.

Fast paced and thrilling! This will keep you up long past your bedtime, chasing bad guys and falling in love.

Jen Jones has a terrible secret and when her past collides with her future, things heat up. Sex...

Wonderful Descriptions ~ #Spotlight on Author Kimberly Sullivan

My next critique partner from www.critiquecircle.com to introduce is the fabulous, Kimberly Sullivan. Kimberly writes both novels and short stories (I always admire the ability to write short stories - I'm too long winded J).

Kimberly writes women's fiction, both first and third person, and her descriptions of the places her characters live is nothing short of amazing. You feel like you are in the remote town settled in the mountains of Italy. You see the way the people are dre...

#BookReview - After Ten by Michele Shriver

Michele Shriver's After Ten: 5/5 stars

After Ten is an interesting story about the trials of growing up and how things aren't always what you think they'll be.  Michele Shriver does a great job in this book of showing us the lives of four friends from law school, ten years after they graduate.


I love seeing how things in their lives did (or didn't) go according to plan in the years since the women parted ways.  It all builds until we see their reunion with each other, none o...

Her writing is so beautiful, so wonderful, I knew I had to get to know more about this person and learn from her.

Monterey is as beautiful a person on the inside as her wonderful writing suggests. She has become a true friend to me, and I am so gr...

#Spotlight on Author Stefanie J. Pristavu

Rachel and Daniel broke every rule in the Hunter book.
Don’t turn humans into Hunters. Daniel did that when he saved Rachel from becoming a vampire bride.
Don’t travel beyond your assigned area. Assigned area? They’ve traveled half-way around the world in search for Vlad, the vampire boss.
Report all hunting activity to the Hunters’ High Council. There’s a Hunters’ High Council?
Don’t tell humans about the existence of paranormal beings. Ooopsy, they kinda let that one slip.
Don’t resist arrest an...
