Debbiereadsbook (1849 KP) rated One Night (Night Series #1) in Books
Feb 16, 2018
its hot hot HOT!!!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
Book title is One Night and the whole book takes place in just that: one night!
After an attack 8 years ago, Gabe hasn't been able to be intimate with anyone. Moving across the world gives him a chance to push himself and at least try. He never expected that Cam would become anything other than one night.
OOOOOEEEEE!!!! New shelf, folks, just for this book! Cos let me tell ya, these boys get up to inferno level heat in that one night!
Cam and Gabe have a powerful and instant reaction, even with a whole club between them, and it carries, right through these some hundred pages, with both of them, independently of each other, deciding that one night will never be enough, but Gabe runs still. His trauma is dark, and could well have ended his life but for a nosey neighbour. Cam's reaction to that trauma is, again, powerful: his need to protect Gabe, to keep HIS man safe skyrockets and Cam realises that he will never get enough of Gabe.
Short it is, but there is enough history of the two men to gab you and pull you in. There is SO MUCH action, let me tell ya, these boys burn high, and hot and LONG!!!
I wrote in a recent review that what I loved about THAT book, was that it was so very CLEAN. But what I LOVED about this book?? It is so very NOT clean!! I actually don't think I've read such a great story, with so much action, in a long time!
Temperature outside? -2 degrees Centigrade (29 F) but inside?? About 500C ( 932F)!!!
Seriously cannot wait for Cam and Gabe's next book. It's not finished, their story, but they get their HFN here.
5 scorching stars!

Sam (74 KP) rated Hinch Yourself Happy in Books
Jun 21, 2019
I’m one of those people who enjoy cleaning. I find it really therapeutic and love nothing more than getting the Zoflora out! Well, other than reading, that is. I didn’t even know about Mrs Hinch until a few months ago, but since I found out about her, I’ve loved keeping an eye on her insta!
Now, before reading this, I was far from being a major hincher. But I still loved trying out her tips around the house.
When I saw this book was coming out, I knew I wanted it, but it wasn’t a ‘omg I NEED it’, it was more of a ‘well that could be good’. So I didn’t preorder it and I also didn’t buy it as soon as it hit the shelves. Instead, I spotted it half price while I was at Sainsbury’s one Sunday, and decided to take the plunge.
Honestly, I loved it! There’s a lot in there about Mrs Hinch herself as well as plenty of cleaning tips! I didn’t even realise that I was halfway through until I put the book down for some food!
Now, a few weeks after reading the book, I’m going to admit it – I’m addicted to Hinching! Fair enough, I used to clean a lot before this book came into my life, but now I spend almost every day off work cleaning, and I love it.
The lists in Hinch Yourself Happy are so useful, and I’ve bought so many things she has recommended and fallen in love with them. I love that in the book, there’s recommendations on what to use, sorted by room and task. It turns the book into an easy reference point for anything cleaning related, and I’ve already gone back to it quite a few times to double check what I should be using.
I’d definitely recommend this book to anyone – whether you’re a clean freak like me, or if you tend to shy away from cleaning. There’s plenty in here to learn from, for anyone.

thoroughly enjoyable read
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
Selina comes face to face with a devil in a suit, and she wants to know more. Society says she should have married by now, but leaving her beloved father isn't an option. But Deveril keeps popping up and she keeps hearing all about his sordid history. Can't they just be friends?
Ok, here's the thing! I knew, *KNEW* this was a Mills and Boon book going in, so I knew it was going to be clean and I still jumped in. I fully expected to not like it very much but actually, it really was just the book I needed at this point in the queue!
I loved that Selina knew she wasn't supposed to be out alone, but at 25, she was nearly classed as a spinster. Meeting Deveril was a breath of much needed fresh air, but she was scared, and rightly so since Deveril has a reputation as a ladies man, a love them and leave them type, but he does tend to stick to the young widows. Both Selina and Deveril were flaunting the rules of the time and I liked how they managed to circumnavigate them.
The suitor who manages to get them stranded needed a serious wake up call, even now, you don't do that! But I loved that Deveril had an option for Selina to keep her reputation intact.
She confuses him, she really does and no one has touched his heart the way Selina does, since his fiance died weeks before their wedding, years ago.
So, yes, it's clean, with some mild peril for Selina. It's not dark, or deadly. Nor steamy or smexy. There is no modern swearing. Full of all the rules of the time, though and I absolutely needed it at this point.
So, 4 thoroughly enjoyable, but not quite my usual reads, stars

loved how the relationship built.
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This is book 4 in The Secret Tales series, but it can be read as a stand alone to the other three. I really enjoyed them all, though, so from a personal point of view, I do recommend them all. Books 1and 2 got 5 stars and book 3 dipped to 4.
But book 4 jumps straight back up to 5 stars. I loved this book!
I'm big enough and ugly enough to admit this: I love that these books are clean! I will always read a steamy book, and be happy about it, but I'm finding THESE books do not need it. The point is delivered beautifully!
I will admit, I knew something was off when Alex returned, as soon as he did. I did not see that playing out how it did, so well played there, Ms Brand. I do like being kept on my toes.
I loved how the relationship between Amalie and Richard grew naturally. After that first shocking encounter, they both found themselves pulled to the other and I loved that there was some pushing against the rules of the time.
I loved the animals in this book! The descriptions of the dogs and the ferret were fabulous and I could see those animals doing what was said on the page.
I loved the supporting cast: Jenny and George are Richard's siblings and they are an absolute cracker of a pair.
Both Amalie and Richard get a say, and a single chapter for a third person. Not saying who, though. But their book is next and I can't wait to read it, especially after reading the short snippet at the end of this one!
I can honestly say, I loved this book and if you like clean, historical romances, these books are for you.
5 full and shiny stars

I received a free copy of this book via Clean Teen Publishing Elite Reviewers which I am a member of. I made no guarantee of a favorable review and the opinions are my own.
When I read the synopsis I knew I just had to read it. This book contains magic, romance and drama and it is about light versus dark {good versus evil} and though at times I found myself enjoying it, I found myself to be somewhat disappointed as well. Jessica is trying to locate/discover more information about her biological parents but by the end of the book we still don't really know anything. Now this could be what the author intended so I do plan on reading the next book. My other issue was that I found the characters to be good, the world building seemed somewhat lacking. I am giving this book three stars and I'm hoping that there will be more explanations in the second book.

A Marvel Classic
What's not to love about a war between superheroes? Probably the clean up... It was an excellent film, with the introduction of the new gen Spiderman and everyone's favourite emo kid, Bucky (who has the prettiest eyes you could ever imagine). This Marvel fan thoroughly enjoyed it, though if I had to fault it (which we won't talk about, because it's Marvel lol) the plot was a little weak, could have been fleshed out a little more, but that being said, I will definitely watch it again :)
