Becky Moran, a woman who leads her life as someone who can talk with the deceased. She has a great life. She works with Hugh Jolly, a man she met while still in college who was looking for his next star. Becky met Hugh at a party, and she was able to convince him that she was the right person for him to work with to get his life back on track and his producing career back in gear. Becky is very good at reading people and knowing what to say to get their attention. She has Sarah Jones who works for her now to do the research on the guest for her radio show, but before the radio gig, she was able to research people to know what to say to get their attention. Becky also has Olly Harvey, her producer who keeps her focused during her shows. Little does Becky know that her life is about to change forever, and she could be in danger because of it. Becky is doing her weekly talk show and she is describing a four hundred year old piece of supernatural history. It’s a crystal that was belonged to “Dr. John Dee, he was the Queens magician, a powerful alchemist and was the Royal Astronomer to Elizabeth the First.” This stone will change everything for Becky as well as those she works with.

Bert Brookings, a young man who sees Becky as a spiritual nemesis. He runs a YouTube channel for his Astral Enchantment fans. He runs workshops for his fans and he claimed he could heal the sick, he was guided by the unicorn, and that “Love Cured” him. He was making money off of his fans and he too was a fake. Bert came from the wrong side of the tracks and had a dark past. His new found life came to him while he was in prison. Bert’s life will change too, but not in the same way as Becky’s.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a big change from what I usually read. I read paranormal occasionally, but this was really different from what I am used to. I am very glad that I was chosen to be part of the tour for this book and was able to read it to review it as well. Most of the characters were likable in this story, of course there should always be one or two that are not to make a good story. Bert was that character for me. Even though Becky was not honest in the beginning, she was a woman trying to make a life and chose to go about it in a deceitful way, but eventually, she turned her life around. If you are looking for a book that will draw you in and keep you interested with some twists and surprises, then you should pick up Medium Wave. I give this book a 4 star review, and hope there will be more to read in the future about Becky and her new found life.

Such a touching and beautiful story. At first I thought Mason was going to be a royal pain in the a**, and he was in the beginning, but Laura helped him to realize that life was to be lived in the moment and to respect.

Mason is a young man with daddy issues, and his way of dealing with them is to be a partier, and cause trouble when he can with his father. Laura is a housekeeper in Mason’s family hotel. He meets Laura when she is one of the maids who has to clean up after him and his friends have partied all night. They are slobs… Mason notices her but doesn’t really pay much attention at first when he first saw her, until one day when she makes a comment about his naked body. Mason is in his early 20’s and when he is focused on work, he is a great worker and deal maker for the family business. He just needs to change his ways so that he can get more out of life.

Laura is a woman in her mid 30’s and has had to deal with more than her fair share of life while she was in college. That experience taught her that life is precious and should be valued. She is a positive woman who tries not to let things get her down. She is good friends with Jessi a baker in the hotel restaurant, and she lives by herself in a small apartment. She tells herself that getting involved with Mason is a mistake, he’s too young, and he is a partier. What good could come of a relationship between them. However, he catches her when she is weak and she throws all of those things out the window. Will it be a one time thing, or will they be able to make things work between them.

If you like a touching story where an alpha male is taught that the way he is living his life could be changed and that he could have a good woman by his side, then you should pick up this book. I give this book a 4.5 star rating and look forward to more stories with the characters in this book.

This was my first book to ready by Ruby Ryan, and I loved it. It is also the first book in the Gryphons vs Dragons Series. I quickly purchased the rest of the books in the series to find out what happens next.

Ethan Masterson, a 30 year old who spends his vacation with his college friends that he has not seen in years. They go to Belize and relive their college days with drinking and partying. They are heading back to their respective homes in a couple of days and have a tour scheduled of a cave in the area. With most of the guys hung over, they manage to make their tour, but things get a little weird in the cave and they cut the tour short. A bit on the geeky side, Ethan is not someone you would expect to show alpha tendencies, or attract women, but after this vacation, he has changed.

Jessica, hired from a temp agency to fill in at a company as a Systems Administrator. She finds the job to be fulfilling, but the boss to be a pain in the butt. She also finds that the person she is covering for has a weird filing system for the files on the system. Little does she know that there is a reason for the weird filing system. Jessica has done nothing to make her boss, Mrs. Arnold happy since she has been in the position. Jessica would love to have a permanent position with the company, but fears that it won’t work out because making Mrs. Arnold happy is not easy to do.

Jessica and Ethan meet up by chance, because Mrs. Arnold sends Jessica to pick up Ethan from the airport when he comes back from vacation. Little do they know that it may have been fate bringing them together.

This is a paranormal shifter story with heat, suspense, and a very good story background. I loved reading it and look forward to reading the remaining books in the series. I will seek out Ruby Ryan books when I am in the mood for a great shifter story. I suggest you do the same.

These were great starter stories in Craving Loyalty. I call them starter stories because they end so that you wonder what’s going to happen now. You want more of the story to continue. I do wish that some were longer, or that I could find the continuation of the stories. A few of them were okay, but in general this is a good boxset to read. I had only read one of the authors in this group, Ginger Ring, and I found her story “Taken to the Cleaner” to be a good one. I would have liked to read more of this story.

If you like mafia stories and to read about men and women who are looking for that one person to really care for them, love them, and be loyal to them, then you should read this boxset. I will have to look for more stories by these authors to see if they have continuations to these stories.

I give the boxset a 3.5 star review. As I said, some of the stories were okay. They weren’t bad, just okay.
