MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5
Dark, twisted, and an awesome read. A witch and the penitent that will fulfill the family contract and break the family curse. Has it worked in the past, or is there something that both families are not seeing. With an elder family member pushing for the contract to be fulfilled to the letter, will the danger and curse in the house ever be broken?
A historical contract that can’t seem to be broken or the curse will continue. Azreal and Willow are the sacrificial lambs, but can they break the curse without fulfilling the contract. Could something more break the curse?
I loved this start to The Sacrifice Duet and can’t wait to delve into The Penitent. I love both Natasha Knight’s and A. Zavarelli’s writing and their books. They both delve into the dark and depraved worlds that not many write about, but they do it in a way that draws the reader into the story and holds them captive until the final page, even with a cliff hanger at the end. This only makes the reader crave the next book to finish the story. The same holds true for The Sacrifice Duet, The Tithing. I loved it!

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 out of 5
Wow! Talk about unexpected Twist!
She’s a woman living under a mask that she can only drop when she’s alone. Her fiance has just become a well known sensation in Hollywood after a chance discovery in his family’s art gallery. Now she has to share him with the world while trying to keep herself protected and out of the public eye. However, someone has other ideas and is sending her notes and text messages telling her that she needs to come clean or they will do it for her. Kallie needs to find a way to hide the pain and make it go away, if only for short time.
Sebastian is a man that is living the high of his new career while seeming to not care about his fiance’s wants. Sebastian’s grandmother is a woman that pushes her thoughts, dreams, and desires onto Kallie when it comes to the wedding of Sebastian and Kallie. Kallie is tired of fighting it and lets her do what she wants, but after one night of finding what she’s been looking for, Kallie isn’t so sure she should marry Sebastian any more.
This was a dark, twisted story of secrets, pain, and find oneself. It took a lot of twists and turns, but Kallie may have finally found her true life. I loved the book and the characters. It was a page-turner for sure. The twisted minds of some of the characters kept the pages turning.
𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗟𝗜𝗩𝗘 → Claire’s Guardian (Police and Fire: Operation Alpha) by D. M. Earl 4 ⭐️’s @dmearl
★★★★★ “What an amazing read I couldn’t put it down… This book had everything drama, passion and violence and a fab story line,” – Hayley W.
When passion ignites, this fireman is here for it all…
D.M. Earl is a U.S.A. Today Bestselling Author who spins stories about real life situations with characters that are authentic, genuine, and sincere. Each of her stories allow the characters to come to life with each turn of the page while they try to find their HEA through much drama and angst. D.M. finds ideas for her next story from within those around her and what she experiences in daily life. Each book has a part of her left behind in it. She lives in Northwest Indiana married to her best friend who was instrumental in the start of her writing career in 2014. When not writing D.M. loves to read, play with her seven fur-babies (yeah crazy) and ride her Harley Dyna Lowrider.
MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 out of 5
I love D.M. Earl’s books in her MC series, Devil’s Handmaidens MC and the Grimm Wolves MC. These books hold some of my favorite characters and I devour them when a new one comes out. When I saw that she was writing in Susan Stoker’s Operation Alpha world, I had to read Claire’s Guardian. I am so glad I did, as this book was just as action packed, page turning, and steamy as her MC books I’ve read.
I love her characters because they have such depth to them, Danny Moretti and Claire George are both very strong characters that show the depth and strength that Ms. Earl’s characters have. Danny Moretti is ex-military, and an animal lover. He’s now a fireman and works with his previous commanding officer when needed to find and take down those that harm others. When an arsonist shows up in their town, Danny and his fire and rescue team as well as his old commanding officer, along with is team of ex-military men and women will come together to find the arsonist. When it’s discovered that the arsonist is out to take down Danny and anyone he cares about, these men and women will stand behind him.
Claire is a widowed mother of twins and needed a new start so she moved near her sister and brother in-law to start over. She’s not looking for a romantic connection but when she sees Danny for the first time, she can’t deny that he’s sexy. When her sister started match making Claire has no control any longer. When she and her boys find themselves in harms way, Danny will go to any lengths to protect them since he now considers them his family.
I loved this book and I look forward to more books by D.M. Earl in any of her series.

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 out of 5
Janey (GEM operative Pearl) is the computer geek in GEM and prefers to do her investigating behind a screen. However, Jacob, the man that brings Opal, Pearl and Onyx together and guides them in their search and rescue of children being abused and sold as sex slaves, has a different idea and wants her in person on this assignment. Unfortunately, in Pearl’s mind, she also has to put up with Lee Remington, a reporter that seems to always turn up wherever GEM is lately.
Pearl may be a computer geek, but one should not underestimate her or her abilities of survival, protection, or skills in the field. She is just as dangerous as the other operatives, Opal and Onyx. Lee and Pearl are paired together and are looking for the same person that lured young girls away and put them in a position to be sold and used for sick individuals. Both are determined to find the young kid, Jesper, and get answers. However, they when they both end up on a survival outing with youths that are supposed to be protected and helped, they find that there is more going on than most realize and they’ll have to join forces to bring down the ring.
I love this series and the characters are great. Both FMC and MMC are dangerous, strong, and determined to find those responsible and bring down as many people and groups as they. I look forward to Onyx’s book and hopefully more to come with these characters. I loved the book.

Black Knights Inc,: Reloaded is back with the second in the series, BLACK HEARTED! Check out Julie Ann Walker’s new release and be sure to grab your copy today!
He’s everything she ever wanted. She’s everything he never knew he needed. Can she convince him she’s the one?
The Black Knights are back and better than ever!
Samuel Harwood has spent his entire career working in the black and gray areas of international intrigue. Living in the shadows for so long has made him forget who he was and where he came from. Then a blast from the past, in the form of his ex-girlfriend’s kid sister, arrives on the front steps of Black Knights Inc, reminding him of everything he left behind. Except, she’s no longer a kid. And she’s in serious trouble.
Hannah Blue has been in love with Sam Harwood since she was in braces. When someone sabotages her entire life, he’s the first person she turns to. She has critical information about a potential cyber-attack on the U.S. power grid that could end in catastrophic financial damage and loss of life. But the FBI thinks she’s a traitor. And now she’s on the run to save herself and the fate of the entire nation.
Who does Samuel trust? The smart, sexy woman he’s known since he was a teenager? Or the government authorities who give him his orders and cut his paychecks? He’ll make one desperate play to find out. A play that could cost him everything…including his heart.
MY 5⭐️ REVIEW:
If you love suspense, ex-military Alphas, along with smart, sexy, strong and sassy women, and stories with twists and turns throughout, you’ll love Julie Ann Walker’s stories. Black Knights Inc: Reloaded is a great addition to her books, and a welcome return to the BKI series.
With new characters and the OG interspersed, you can’t go wrong reading the BKI: Reloaded. The same great story lines and suspense but with a younger group of men and women doing the job that the BKI are hired to do. Same great twists and turns throughout the stories as well as the steam between the MMC and the FMC.
I love Hannah and her determination to clear her name as well as show Sam that she’s the woman for him. She feels that she has to compete with her sister and other women that are similar to her sister, but Sam is realizing that his type is not what he thought it was, now to convince Hannah of that. I love the suspense throughout this story as well as the action throughout. The characters are great and I can’t wait for more of this team. The search goes on for Bishop and his minions. Who else will Bishop put in his crosshairs that the BKI team will have to rescue next? I’m excited for more!

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5
Vixen hasn’t had an easy life. Up until she was rescued and given a family, she was a woman that most would consider broken or damaged. However, the Devil’s Handmaidens MC, Thunder-Ghost, Montana Chapter gave her a home, a family, and a reason to get up every day and live.
When her past comes calling, all of her hard work and safety could be in jeopardy. When she brings her troubles to the table with her sisters, she’s reminded why she loves these women and her family of choice. However, when secrets are revealed, her whole life could come crumbling down. Bringing in the only man that destroyed her heart, may just break her beyond repair, but can he repair the damage he’s already caused and give her something to be happy about?
Vixen and Lucas need to be alert and ready for anything if they are going to finish what they started five years ago. Can they overcome the heartbreak from that time and work together to bring down the ring that Vixen was caught up in? With the help of the Grim Wolves and the Devil’s Handmaidens, they can accomplish a lot and maybe find their HEA. I loved this story and it was a great addition to the Timber-Ghost, Montana Chapter of the Devil’s Handmaidens. D.M. Earl writes a great strong, independent woman that knows when it’s time to hand over the care and protection to the only man that she knows will take care of her. They may have been broken but with their sisters behind them and the men that love them by their sides, they are strong and powerful.
♥️💜NOW LIVE! What Comes After by A.K. Evans is available now + FREE to read in Kindle Unlimited! @AuthorAKEvans 4-⭐️’s
MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 out of 5
Best friends from the age of eight, you never saw one without the other. They were joined at the hip through high school. They had their lives ahead of them and Devyn Jade had dreams of becoming a chef, but one tragedy changed everything for her, including her future. Theo McCormick knew what he wanted in life and he pursued it. His dream became his reality and he left the small town in Tennessee for the big lights and cameras of Los Angeles.
Devin Jade’s life took a drastic turn just before she graduated high school and it seemed her luck took a turn for the bad after that and she couldn’t seem to catch a break. One bad decision to step up and help a man that was supposed to protect her and care for her almost cost her her life. Could her life turn around and will she be able to find happiness in her future, or will the bad luck stick with her for the rest of her life?
Theo McCormick was ready to settle down and take some time off from the busy life he’s lived for the past twenty-two years. When he’s trying to figure out where he wants to settle down, he receives a phone call that changes everything and throws his world in a tailspin. Now he’s headed back home to Tennessee and hoping and praying that his best friend will pull through so he can live the rest of his dream life.
I have loved the stories in the Road Trip Romance Series by A.K. Evans, and What Comes After did not disappoint. I had forgotten about Theo in the Harper Security Series until I opened this book and it was not what I was expecting at all. It so much more than I expected. I love the characters and the story in this book. Theo’s parents are awesome, Theo and Devyn are great characters and their story is heartbreaking and healing in this book. The fact their love lasted as long as it did is amazing, especially when they haven’t seen each other in years. A story of tragedy, love, and second chances, What Comes After is a great story and I give it a 4-star review.

Greed. Power. Sin.
It all comes with the gavel.
Blurs the lines between church and state.
But the Knightdale Charter of the Satan’s Knights MC is my life.
And I’d do anything for this club.
Like letting the best woman I ever had slip through my fingertips.
A sinfully beautiful spitfire, she’s my better half in every way.
My twin flame. My everything.
My biggest regret.
But there’s no making things right between us.
Because I’m the reason she’s alone yet again.
And if our past wasn’t enough to put out the fire in her soul, my crimes certainly will be.

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 out of 5
Muse and Katie are meant to be together, but Katie has her doubts due to her past. Can Muse convince Katie that he means what he says when he tells her he loves her and wants her and Sam forever?
Katie was crushed after her one-night with her best friends brother eight years ago. Now she has trust issues and she’s kept a secret for eight years. When that secret is revealed Katie and Sam’s lives are turned upside down. Even Muse questions his MC brothers and the family that he has known and trusted for years. When danger finds the MC and Katie and Sam’s lives are in danger, she’ll need all the strength she can find to fight for her freedom and figure out what she wants from life.
I loved this story. It’s full of action, danger, twists, turns, and betrayal. I give this book a 4-star review and I look forward to more in the series. The ending of this one left me wanting more now!

When my best friend’s little sister walks in on me moaning her name, it’s all over. All restraints are shattered, and every boundary demolished. Nothing will be the same…
For years, I’ve tried to keep my distance from Dakota Cooper. She’s everything I’ve ever wanted and the one thing I can’t have.
But when she calls me in the middle of the night after someone tries to break into her house, I can no longer handle that distance, and I convince her to stay with me, along with her young son.
