TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Taking Chances (The Chances Series Book 2) in Books
Feb 23, 2021
Taking chance by Traci Wooden-Carlisle was a great example of its title; It is a book about taking chances. It is the second book in the Chances Series, but it can be read as a standalone. This is my first time reading a book by Traci Wooden-Carlisle and I loved her writing style, it is conversational and built with good detail.
Andrew and Pietra (Which is a cool name, but I had to look up how to say it!) is a classic unrequired love/friends to lovers’ type storyline that was engaging, heartfelt, and had some deep thought stirring moments. I enjoyed their banter back and forth, Andrews's culture was fascinating, and I truly loved Pietra’s patience with Andrew through everything. It was a good culturally diverse book that kept me interested and I did not put it down until I finished!

TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Storm Rising (Book of the Wars, #1) in Books
Feb 24, 2021
I absolutely LOVED this book (and so did my husband, who rarely likes reading) it had action, Biblical mystery, swirling relationships (Which hopefully we get to see in the next book) and many daring spy type stunts. A great book that pulls you in and does not want to let go, I read it a week ago and I still keep thinking about the possible scenarios. It was so hard to put down. If you have never read anything by Ronie Kendig this is a great one to start with, and one I highly recommend putting on your summer TBR Pile.
I give this book a 5 star rating for the many adventures, the depth of the characters, and for making me feel as though I was right there experiencing all of it first hand. Can not wait to read the next one in this series !!

Merissa (12363 KP) rated Dark Night (The Amulet #2) in Books
Apr 14, 2023
This is a short and spicy quick read about Soli-B, a witch who has been bound to a vampire before, who is fighting against her attraction to Master Eligio. He, of course, doesn't play fair and will use anything to gain an advantage, including a warrant of arrest.
This is a novella so therefore it moves along at an incredible pace - everything happens within the space of a few short hours. There is attraction, flirtations, humour, and the threat of violence - all within a few pages.
If you are on the lookout for a hot, coffee-break book, then I can highly recommend this book and The Amulet Series as a whole.

Love this book!!!
As one of the books that really begins to develop the getting older aspect of the characters we have now known for years it does an amazing job of defining them and it only encourages your commitment to the series.

Hazel (2934 KP) rated For Reasons Unknown (DCI Matilda Darke, #1) in Books
Jan 12, 2018
What a great book and, hopefully, the first of a series of many involving DCI Matilda Darke and the fantastic cast of excellent supporting characters. Well written at a great and unrelenting pace, the story follows the investigation of a cold case and the, possible, link to a recent murder.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Safe Haven (Life After War, #3) in Books
Jan 12, 2018
In the third books of the [Life After War] series we learn more about Adrian's creation [Safe Haven]. They are beginning to prepare for a fight with the Mexican slavers but they have to deal with internal conflicts as well caused by Kenn's controlling nature.
The characters continue to drive the story and the way they interact keeps the plot interesting. I am looking forward to reading book 4, [Adrian's Eagles].

Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Triangle of Deception in Books
Apr 27, 2018
Triangle of Deception is one of those sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat books. It’s book four of a series but it makes a wonderful standalone. I don’t want to say too much for fear of giving anything away! Fast paced, energetic, and exciting, this is one that any crime-thriller lover won’t want to miss.

Chelsea (166 KP) rated A Game of Thrones in Books
May 2, 2018
Very much enjoyed this book! It was difficult to begin because there are so many characters, many with complicated and similar-sounding names. Once you get into it, though, it goes by pretty quickly! I liked learning all the characters' stories through the different points of view and am excited to find out how they will all come together. I can't wait to read the rest of the series!

David McK (3496 KP) rated Hell Hath No Fury: A Montague & Strong Detective Novel in Books
Apr 11, 2019
Orlando A. Sanchez is fairly churning these e-books out and, In my opinion at least, it's beginning to show.
Book #8 in the 'Montague and Strong detective' series, in which Hades (yes, that Hades) wife Persephone has been kidnapped. Tristan Montague and Simon Strong (and Peaches the hellhound, of course!) are hired to investigate that disappearance, leading to the usual mayhem and large-scale destruction of public property.
