This book had me HOOKED and wanting more! I didn't want to put it down and stayed up late into the early hours of morning just to keep reading it! I love how gentle yet strong Elisabeta is. She has been through so much and had to overcome her crippling anxiety in order to the help rest of the community. She showed strength, love, and compassion when no one would blame her if she just ran away and hid because the situation was just too much. Now her life-mate Ferro is an Alpha male. He needs to be in command and rule over his woman. He is an ancient and wants the traditional marriage where the woman is submissive. However, he soon learns that being gentle and allowing her to feel her emotions is what she truly needs. He protects her even though some of the other women think he is being a total asshat. He gives her what she needs and does it despite of everything else. He is there to protect her at all costs. Elisabeta is truly a gift to the Carpathian people and he knows that. I can keep on gushing over this book but you all need to go read this one! This is one of my favorite books of Christine's! It almost rivals Dark Slayer. I truly appreciate Christine bringing anxiety to light in this book and how it effected the main character. It's always amazing to see how she writes it into the story. This is a must read book, so go grab it and Happy Reading my friends! ...more

I didn't want to put it down. The way she wrote it made it a quick read but I wanted it to keep reading! I love the story of Preacher and Paige. Their meeting was by chance but I know it was fate brought them together. Oh and poor Paige. What she goes through is horrible! However, I truly liked how no detail was held back. Fair waring this book has some abuse scene that even had me wince and cry. I felt for Paige, but she is a strong woman that finally had enough and found a safe place to live and raise her son. I love how Preacher is protective of her from the beginning. Like he knew on instinct that there was something there but didn't push it. Oh man I'm gushing lol, I liked how Jack and Mel made appearances and we still got to see into their lives as well. I'm already into the 3rd book! Happy reading my friends! P.S. the BOOKS are better than the Netflix series!...more

I though it was going to be a time travel story but it wasn't. It was a wonderful woven story about looking back in past and seeing for what it was. I love Lucy. She's smart, kind, and knows what she wants. Her friendship with Dash is truly amazing. I loved how they grew up together and then went their separate ways but eventually come back to each other. I love how the author brings the past to life and tells their story as if they were a live today, and how they unknowingly left clues for Lucy and Dash to find. This is truly an amazing story if you are into adventure books. The ending will leave you speechless! Happy reading my friends. ...more

I'm glad I was able to listen to it, instead of reading it. I think it brought out more of the characters personalities with the audio. Beatrix is a song main character.

I'm not even sure how to describe it. I had to read this book when I had some quiet time, which was usually at night when the kids were asleep. I truly LOVE this story. I had never heard of Cora or her fight to end illiteracy throughout her county in Kentucky. I had to look her up! The way the story is layout grabbed me from the start. I always wanted to know what would happen next. The way the history is told through the characters of this story is gripping. Lucy is a great character and I love how she found her place in such a small town. I liked how she grew as a character and was strong. Brother Wyatt and Fin were great characters too. They each brought their own uniqueness to the story. I'm so glad I had the chance to read this story and found a great new author too! Happy reading my friends....more

I loved every bit of it, especially the setting. I love the Redwood trees, the rivers, and just the natural beauty of Humboldt and Mendocino Counties have. Robyn described the scenery so perfectly at times I thought I was driving through the Redwoods myself. So, enough about the scenery since I'm a bit biased. The storyline was great. I liked the main character and how at a time in her life she needed a change. So instead of changing city life for another city life, she takes a small job in a podunk town in the middle of nowhere. She's serious about leaving her old life behind and starting fresh, and she chooses just the right spot too! Of course there are many things to get use to. Small towns don't have everything, and sometimes you need to drive to get it. However, she manages and starts to make a life for herself there. There are a few twists and turns I was expecting at all! Now I'm hooked and can't wait to read the next story in this series. Happy reading my friends. ...more

However, to get away from her husband proves to be difficult. He is possessive, abusive, and a control freak. He manipulates the people around him to make it out that she is crazy. Yet she knows that if she doesn't get away she soon will not be breathing. The reason why I couldn't put this book down is because it's very relatable. If you're in the mood for a book you just can't put down, then this is the book for you! Happy reading my friends. ...more

First you see characters I really enjoyed this book, it's wonderful and whimsical. I like how it gradually lets you into the world of book wandering. First you see characters from famous books interact with Tilly. Then they let you slip inside a scene from Alice in Wonderland. Tilly is a great main character, and I love how level headed and strong she is. However, not all is what it seems. Tilly having to be raised by her grandparents is on the search for her mom, who left suddenly when she was just 1 years old. The key to finding her is learning how to book wander and finding out just exactly who her parents are. This is a great book for all readers. Happy reading my friends. ...more

I always enjoy Jody's stories. She just has a way of brining the reader in and making her characters come to life. I wish I would have read this book sooner. Arabella is a strong character.

There she enjoys her freedom and finds out what truly makes her happy. This is such a great story I recommend it anyone that loves a soft, romance. Happy reading my friends....more

It's the first time I've read a book by Jan Fields and so glad the local librarian helped pick this out for me. I wanted something different and this fit the bill! This book kept me captivated and I read it in one sitting. This book is about 2 friends that can't get over their friends' death 15 years before. For some reason they believe she was murdered and the town cops and college dean covered it up. Throughout the book the friends try to find out who did it. They even go as far as stalking a student that was in her class all those years ago. The story ended on a cliffhanger so I can't wait to read the next in the series! Happy reading my friends. ...more

She isWhat you have to remember here is that this story is told through the memories of someone who survived the most horrific massacre in the world. She is 90 years old and some details of what she went through she will not tell. This book brought up so many emotions especially in the world we live in today of unrest. Here experience of living in the Krakow Ghetto and then being shipped off to Auschwitz were horrid. There are many parts that had me in tears and in disbelief. Even though I've studied the Holocaust in school, hearing or reading from survivors is something totally different. It's more personal. So if you are into history and wanting to read something that's real, raw, and tells history from a survivors eye this is the book for you. Happy reading my friends. ...more

This book is part hilarious, and part horrible.I finally realize where Stephanie Plum comes from. Her beginnings and what lead her to her new career. This book is part hilarious, and part horrible. I found myself laughing out loud on some parts, and then furious the next. This book is not all fun and games. True, it's told in a comedic manner, with goofy characters, but some of the scenes are down right disgusting and horrid. Take Stephanie for example, she is true to her nature and a bit clumsy. She has no clue on how to do her new job. What do you expect from someone who has no experience in bounty hunting? Then there is grandma who reminds me of the little mom from Golden Girls. She's a kick in the pants with no filter! There's Ramirez who is a boxing champ and likes to rough up women. Last but not least Joe, a cop who is one the run because he's wanted for murder. So overall this was a good book and I couldn't put it down. If you are looking for an overall comedic crime mystery this one is it! Happy reading my friends....more
