ARC Review of “Arabian Vengeance”, by James Lawrence @HGRomanceDeals

Awesome Read! I love a good thriller/suspense book, and this book delivered.

Pat Walsh is being set up for a bombing in Brussels, and he has to find out who is setting him and up and why, so that he can clear his name, and keep his business up and running. Pat is a contracted worker for the CIA and works for himself. He owns a company that moves arms and other needed items for the CIA to countries and affiliates around the world.

In his path to find who is setting him up and why, he finds that he is looking for more than a set up. He will have to defend himself in the process and his tactics to find out information are a little unorthodox. He is retired special forces and is a one man destruction team. He can get to people that no one else would be able to touch and he does it with stealth.

I really enjoyed reading this book, and hated for it to end. I also hated putting it down once I started reading it. I am now going to purchase the first book “Lost in Arabia” so that I can read it and get acquainted with Pat Walsh’s beginning. Great job on this book, Mr. Lawrence. I look forward to reading more. I will be watching for more Pat Walsh books in the future.

End of October Rambling!

As I get older and watch my children work their way through life, I sit and think at times that I really wish we had some time to just sit and talk about everything and anything. We do this when we can all get together, but those times are too few and far between as they are living their lives and trying to make their dreams come true. It is also getting harder to get everyone together now for holidays, birthdays, or just spending time together.

I am very proud of my children and their lives. They are all very smart, kind, and fun loving.

I love my family, and how we all support each other in whatever we endeavor. As I have stated before, I am working on my BA as an adult, and my husband and children have been my loudest supporters for me to complete my degree and continue when I was discouraged and ready to quit. This is why I wish we could spend more time together and enjoy our lives.

Blurb

Passion, betrayal, and heartache collide in an
emotionally charged and dangerous chain of events that could unravel everything

overbearingly protective aspects of approaching parenthood, Mister Black and
Little Red manage to strengthen their passionate connection.
But connections can be severed in the most
insidious ways, and the power couple must learn to trust each other’s instincts
if they hope to uncover the threat determined to destroy their family.

story began.

ARC Review of “Reddest Black”, by P.T. Michelle @pt_michelle @givemebooksblog

Awesome read! I am a big fan of P.T. Michelle’s “In the Shadow Series”, and could not wait to read “Reddest Black”. It’s a great story, with love, suspense, heartache, and some humor.

Sebastian and Talia’s life is going well, their settling in to their marriage and their lives as a team. They work well together and off each other. They’re a great power couple and are well respected. One fateful phone call to Talia and all of that can come crashing down on them. They’re on another case that involves a family member and they have to figure out what is going on and who could be behind it.

The person who has endangered their family has chosen the wrong family to mess with. Sebastian is a force all on his own, but when Talia’s family is brought into the danger, she shows her strength and character to save and defend the people she loves.

This story is well written and develops at a great pace. It was a hard book to put down for all of those life things, sleeping, eating, working, and being social. Sebastian and Talia had me laughing at them, getting angry with them, and crying with them. It felt as though I was going through the same things they were.

I loved this story just as much as the others in the series, and I look forward to reading the next book in the series, “Blood Rose” (8) (Cass and Calder, Novel), due out in June 2018.

ARC Review of “Dark Promises”, by Winter Renshaw @HGRomanceDeals

Great read! I loved this story!

A young woman from a high profile family, Rowan Aldridge, is looking to get over a broken heart and decides to have a one night stand with a man who is from a more prominent family than hers. Keir Montgomery, the youngest son of the President of the United States, is a man who doesn’t care what others think, but he wants to get into Politics, so he needs to change public perception of him. Rowan thinks that if she has a one night stand with Keir, she will get over the man who just broke her heart. Little does she know that the relationship that just ended for her was a blessing.

Keir needs a woman at his side that can charm the public for him. Rowan is a woman who has lived her life in the spotlight, and has never done anything publicly that would get back to her parents. Are these two the perfect match? Will they find a way to make a relationship work?  Can they find their way to love each other?

Winter did a great job with this story. The story starts right out with drama and heat, and keeps going throughout the entire book. I hated for it to end, and I hated to put it down. I loved Keir and Rowan, they were strong characters and they were very well developed. I wish that the Epilogue had been a little longer and had more about Keir and Rowan’s life, but the story is great! I will now have to go back and read Ronan’s story.

 

ARC Review of “Conceit”, by Alana Albertson @AlanaAlbertson @HGRomanceDeals

I liked this story. It was a little harsh in some areas and it made me want to scream at Mia, but it’s a great story about a sister who would do anything for her brother. I give this story a 4.5 star rating.

A SEAL who is in a hard spot. Grant’s best-friend is in trouble, but he is not allowed to talk to him and he can’t even help him, he’s under orders. Mia is the sister of Grant’s best friend and wants to help her brother out of a bad situation, but she can’t find anyone who can help her through normal routes, so she takes matters into her own hands and decides that she has to figure out what is going on so that she can help her brother, Joaquin.

The characters are both strong willed and broken, but they will do whatever it takes to survive, and they will do whatever they can to help the people they care about.
This was an enjoyable read, however, it does end on a cliff hanger, so if you don’t mind cliff hangers, then you should definitely read this book. I have no problem with cliff hangers and will purchase the remainder of the series to read all of them.

Review of “Black Platinum”, by P.T. Michelle @pt_michelle @givemebooksblog

I love the “In The Shadows Series”, and “Black Platinum” does not disappoint. Mr. Black and Red are still just as hot and great together. The fact that Mr. Black’s Alpha tendencies have eased off a little for Talia, but that his protective instincts are still in effect shows that he will always protect what is his.

Talia and Sebastian have a lot of baggage from their pasts and it just seems to keep showing up when they try to move on with their lives. Talia’s strength and love shows through in her actions in her daily life and dealings. These characters show that love can conquer all. Their love for each other and their families show through all the time. Even the love for those who are not blood family but work with them are so important in their lives that they will do anything for them as well.

I love the way P.T. Michelle writes her characters. They are well rounded and real.

Her “In The Shadows Series” is full of action, suspense, and hot Alpha males. I love a story that makes me lose myself in it so that I don’t know what time it is or much of what is going on around me, and this series does that.

 

Review of “The Biker’s Dirty Virgin (A Naughty Single Father Novel)”, by Blythe Reid

An MC President falls for a new employee.  Spencer Marx is the President of a Motorcycle club with two young boys to raise. He owns a motorcycle shop and parts store and is ex-military.

Alissa is new to town, and about ten years younger than Spencer, she is looking for a job and lives across the street from Spencer’s shop, so she decides to apply there. Spencer hires her on the spot after meeting her.

The sex scenes were alright, but at times they were inappropriate and the first time Spencer and Alissa have sex is a little awkward.

Spencer appears to be a bad ass biker in the first paragraph, but it does not continue that way throughout the book. This book is a quick read. For me, it needed a bit more tweaking, for it to really compete in the saturated genre.
