A Tigers bounty ( Tiger protectors book 1)
By Terry Bolryder

 
This bounty hunting tiger has a curvy girl in his sights...

Jace is tall, dark and handsome. He's also a super rare tiger shifter, with orange eyes and a keen sense of justice that has him constantly on the hunt for the worst criminals in the shifter world. When a particular case brings him in contact with a beautiful, vulnerable woman needing rescue, he has no choice but to step in and offer protection. But the longer he spends time with Amber, the more he isn't sure he can ever let her go. And that's dangerous for a man in his position.

Amber never expected to be in this situation. An average woman working on her degree in special education, she has no idea who would kidnap and target her. She only knows that the hot, leather-wearing man who rescued her and is now guarding her is the sexiest thing she's ever seen. And somehow, he seems to want her too. If only he wasn't holding back so many secrets, maybe they could actually have a chance...

As Jace and Amber work to discover who is behind it all, they find themselves drawn closer, into hot kisses and hotter nights. But as much as Jace is coming to realize that Amber might be his mate, he also knows his life is too dangerous for someone as precious as her to be in it. Somehow he has to stay focused and keep them both safe, even if the only target he truly wants to capture is her heart.





As a shifter book goes it’s pretty good and what you’d expect. I did enjoy the book but it is what you would expect from Terry Bolryder I am certainly liking the tigers though you don’t often get to read much about them!
Recommend to those that love shifter books with hot sex!

Hmmm ... I'm not sure what to make of this one, if I'm honest.

Book #17 (yikes!) in the Cato and Macro series (initially all with the name 'Eagle' somewhere in the title) this, if anything, is probably best described as a 'bridging' novel: there's a new Emperor on the Imperial Throne (see the previous instalment, Day of the Caesars), and war is brewing between Rome and Parthia.

Cato and Macro are tasked with restoring the ousted King Rhadamistus to his Armenian throne, but the King proves to be ruthless, ambitious, untrustworthy and (to the Armenians especially) unpopular.

Alongside those professional concerns (i.e. a dangerous mission into unmapped and unfriendly territory), Cato also still struggles with private concerns: was his now-deceased wife unfaithful to him, or not, that leads him to - at times - act completely out of character. Because of those concerns, I would not recommend this as a good 'jumping-on' point in the series: a little background knowledge in this, at least, would be useful.
  
Eli’s high school friend Jake is in town making a movie about a magician who dies during a performance of the dangerous bullet catch illusion. Only Jake thinks that someone is going to kill him when they film that scene, and he asks Eli, a magician, to help prevent that from happening. Meanwhile, Eli reconnects with his high school crush, Trish, as their reunion only to have Trish’s husband be murdered the next morning. Can Eli solve the crime?

With two mysteries happening at once, this book never slows down. Both stories feature some great twists along the way to a logical conclusion. The book is filled with outstanding characters as well, both returning and new. About the only thing that bothered me was Eli’s crippling fear of heights, which never seemed to bother him at home.

In December 1938, an FBI investigation into the smuggling activities of Albert Chaperau has reached the doors of Paramount, where Edith Head is the head of costumes. Since Lillian Frost was at the dinner party where Albert was exposed, she finds herself involved in attempts to head off the investigation. Meanwhile, Lillian is also looking into the disappearance of Jens Lahse. No one has seen him for a week. Where could he have gone?

This book plunges us into the world of old Hollywood, and doesn’t let us out. Real and fictional blend seamlessly on the page, all of them coming to wonderful life. The book takes time to lay the foundation of both stories and introduce the characters, but once that happens, it is off and running and hard to put down. Add in a touch of Christmas, and you have a very charming book.

What a refreshing read!! I absolutely loved it & can not fault anything about it!

The pacing was just right for this book. The characters were great! I especially loved Jeanne and Molly! Nick was great as well. I couldn't stand Marcus though. He seemed to be too needy and pushy which is what I think the author was trying to convey.

The plot is fairly predictable although there was one twist I didn't see coming!! However, this didn't put me off.

Dangerous Waters is such a sweet read, and it's reads so easily! Anne Allen is fantastic at writing. This is her first novel, but it would seem that she's been writing for ages with how well this book was done.

The story just works. And this book has made me want to visit Guernsey!

I loved the fact that the author included recipes at the end of the book as well. A nice touch!
