The Whole Package
by Marie Harte
Series: Movin' On (#1)
Published by: Sourcebooks Casablanca
January 29th, 2019
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Format: eARC
Source: Publisher (NetGalley)
Rating: 3.5 Stars

     Always the caretaker, former Marine Reid Griffith wants to help his brother adjust to civilian life…and help other former servicemen. What better way to utilize their brawn, discipline, and charm than a moving company that hires veterans? But although Reid prides himself on being strategic, he certainly doesn’t plan to fall in the spotlight of one brilliant—and beautiful—PR whiz… 
     PR expert Naomi Starr is determined to bring Vets on the Go! into the spotlight. But when she meets Reid, it might mean breaking her rule to never mix business with pleasure. Especially once she discovers that underneath Reid’s sexy rough-and-tumble exterior is a vulnerable man who just might need what she’s got to give.


     Vets on the Go! it's a small fledgling moving company founded by two brothers and a cousin that only hires veterans.

     Reid Griffith is the youngest of the two brothers and the one that is in charge with the administrative side of things. You could even say that Vets on the Go! it's Reid's brainchild as he wanted to help his brother sustain a job.

     When Reid's brother and another employee stop a burglar and are featured on the news, Naomi Starr, a PR expert decides to offer her services to take Vets on the Go! to the next level.

     I loved the story behind the moving company, I loved the characters (although sometimes the main characters were a little bit awkward together) and I loved the diversity of the characters.

     There were some elements of the story that I didn't like too, like the "villain" (the story could have done without that little "trouble" in my opinion), and her constant obsession of not getting involved with a "coworker".

     Aside from that, I think that it was a really cute story and I'll definitely read the next book in the series.

The Wall of Winnipeg and Me
by Mariana Zapata
Published by: Self-Published
February 28th, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Format: eBook
Source: Kindle Unlimited
Rating: 1 Star

     Vanessa Mazur knows she's doing the right thing. She shouldn't feel bad for quitting. Being an assistant/housekeeper/fairy godmother to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization was always supposed to be temporary. She has plans and none of them include washing extra-large underwear longer than necessary. 
     But when Aiden Graves shows up at her door wanting her to come back, she's beyond shocked. 
     For two years, the man known as The Wall of Winnipeg couldn't find it in him to tell her good morning or congratulate her on her birthday. Now? He's asking for the unthinkable. 
     What do you say to the man who is used to getting everything he wants? 


     Wow, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me, where do I begin...

     The book starts with this girl Vanessa, who is the assistant/housekeeper of Aiden, also known as the Wall of Winnipeg, wanting to quit because she has accumulated enough money for her to start her own business. She knew from the beginning that this job was not going to be something permanent; that she had a goal.

     Then it goes on to say how she started working for him and doing everything for him and what was expected from her. How she, in the beginning, didn't know anything about the job that she was going to do but she was going to make it work because she needed the money and this job paid really good. Everything after that is Aiden, Aiden, Aiden, the Wall of Winnipeg, Aiden, Aiden, the Wall of Winnipeg, blah blah blah.

     I made it about a hundred pages into the book and then I DNF'ed it. Aiden was an ass and Vanessa has a very low opinion of herself for having held on to a job that she was not happy with because she needed the money and because Aiden was a cold bastard.

     Then after that, for him to have the gall to ask her for a favor even when she kept saying no, no and no? I really don't know how this book can improve so I'm not going to keep reading it. And I seriously do not understand how this book made it to people's top tens of the year and in some cases even the top one.

     In WICKED WHISKEY LOVE...
     After escaping abusive parents and, later, an abusive relationship, Sarah Beckley has spent a lifetime watching snakes shed their skin. With two small children to care for and another on the way, she's finally found a home in Peaceful Harbor with the brother she hasn't seen in more than a decade. She's still searching for her sister, but life is good. If only she could stop thinking about the sinfully sexy doctor/biker who has taken to her children like a loving uncle--and to her like a hungry man.
     Trust doesn't come easily for Sarah, but Bones Whiskey is patient and protective, amazing with her children, and he looks at her like she is the only woman he could ever want--and more. With two little ones underfoot, Sarah expects him to move on quickly, yet with every tender kiss and each trying moment with the children, Bones surprises her. But will the fiercely loyal biker stick around when Sarah's worst secret is revealed, or will he shed his skin, too?

     Oh My God, what did just happened?

     Wicked Whiskey Love is the story of Bones Whiskey, a doctor/biker, who overanalyzes everything before taking any action; and Sarah Beckley a mother of two and pregnant with a third, who is wary of anyone who shows kindness to her and her children.

     Sarah has gone thru some difficult times and she expects at any moment for people to show her their true face and disappoint her again. But while she resists her attraction to Bones, the once cool and level-headed doc is taking a chance on this attraction without overthinking it.

     Slowly but surely this two break down the walls surrounding Sarah's heart and falling in love not just with each other but with the kids too.

     The only thing I have to say is that I am mad at myself for not trying Melissa Foster before now. I have seen her books on several sites and stores and I've not grabbed one for one reason or other but no more, if I see it I buy it!

     This book had me in such a roller coaster of emotions. Not even 30% into the story and I'd already cried on 4 different scenes. But not just that. I loved that even as I was crying one moment the next I would be laughing the next bawling then smiling then teary-eyed and so on. I really cannot recomend this book enough, you guys just stop reding this and go buy it now. Now! NOW!

Obsidian Magic
by McKenzie Hunter
Series: Legacy (#2)
Published by: Sky Publishing LLC
March 17th, 2017
Genre: Urban Fantasy
Format: eBook
Source: Kindle Unlimited
Rating: 4 Stars

     The only thing standing between me and death is my secret. 
     I’m a Legacy—a secret I’d planned on taking to my grave. Gareth, the enigmatic leader of the Supernatural Guild, knows it, but can I trust him to keep it? When mysterious deaths occur as a result of magic that mimics my own, I no longer have to worry about Gareth exposing me – it will be one of my own that does. Another Legacy is causing the chaos, and I’m forced to hunt my own kind. It seems simple, but we’ve existed for as long as we have because we’re better hunters than prey. 
     I’m forced to work with Gareth to clear my name and find the Legacy responsible. Not only is my secret about to be revealed—so is his. Gareth is much more dangerous than I expected. Is he my friend or my enemy?


     This book starts days later from when book one started. Still, Olivia is hiding who she is from the magical and human worlds. Only her best friend Savanah and Gareth know what she is. She understands why her friend keeps quiet about it, what she wants to know is why Gareth-head of the Supernatural Guild (the magical police force)-doesn't arrest her.

     Throughout the book, Olivia tries to unravel the mystery of Gareth not turning her in and how he knows her real name while at the same time trying to stop Conner and his cohorts from performing another Cleanse.

     I love that Olivia is a kickass heroine that doesn't wait around for anyone to help her. If something needs to be done she goes and does it and doesn't complain about it, even if what she most do is reveal herself to the world.

     This book was filled with "Oh Shit" moments and revelations and action and fighting and a million other thing that had me hooked on it from beginning to end. I can't wait to read the next book on the series and see what is going to happen now with the Guardians of Order and how it is going to affect all that Olivia and Gareth have accomplished so far.

The Fairytale Curse
by Marina Finlayson
Series: Magic's Return (#1)
Published by: Finesse Solutions
May 8th, 2016
Genre: Fantasy
Format: eBook
Source: Kindle Unlimited
Rating: 3 Stars

     Most people only wake up with hangovers after parties. Seventeen-year-old Violet wakes up with frogs falling out of her mouth whenever she speaks, and her twin sister CJ’s dripping diamonds with every word. As if starting at a new high school wasn’t hellish enough, they’ve been hit with a curse straight out of a fairy tale, with not a handsome prince in sight. 
     Apparently Mum and Dad don’t work for the military after all, but for a secret organisation dedicated to keeping the magical denizens of the world safely locked away. These are not the harmless fairies of children’s tales, but powerful beings with a score to settle for their long years of imprisonment. Now the barriers are failing, and if Vi can’t find answers fast the world will be overrun with vengeful fairies. And then there’ll be no happily ever after for anyone. 


     I picked this book up because I needed I book with a cauldron on the cover for a challenge and the second book in this series has one. I liked the concept of the story and I found myself at times engrossed in the story but Violet was just too annoying.

     She and her family have moved to a new place and Violet and her twin sister Cristal are starting on a new school. They are juniors in high school almost seniors. Violet and CJ are fraternal twins and CJ is the beauty of the two. So, of course, Violet emphasis this over and over again even though she says she's learned to leave with the fact that CJ is popular and beautiful and such, which we can clearly see she hasn't deal with that.

     Other than that I think this story has potential if the author decides to edit out all the whining and add some other elements or expand of the ones she's already presented like the romance or the history of the fairy.

     I will read the next book and I'll let you guys know how that one goes. Hopefully, it gets better.

Sun God Seeks...Surrogate? 
by Mimi Jean Pamfiloff
Series: Accidentally Yours (#3)
Published by: Hachette Audio
February 25th, 2014
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Format: Audiobook
Source: Library Loan
Rating: 4 Stars

A Deal from Heaven
     Living in New York City, Penelope Trudeau has seen a lot of weird stuff-but nothing like the insane redhead who accosts her with a wild proposition. Penelope will get a million dollars if she has a baby with the strange woman's brother. With her mother dying from a mysterious disease, Penelope can use the money. Yet the terrified waitress is adamant that her womb and eggs are not for sale . . . until she meets her intended mate. He's impressively built, gorgeous, and red-hot, literally. He's a freaking immortal Sun God.
     For thousands of years, Kinich (Nick to his friends) didn't believe in fraternizing with humans, so procreating with them is definitely a no-no. But after one sizzling encounter with the beautiful, passionate Penelope, Nick begins to think he was wrong . . . until he realizes meeting Penelope was just another one of his crazy sister's schemes at manipulation. But now that he has Penelope in his life, he can't let her go. Especially because doing so means throwing her into the hands of his dangerous enemies.


     First thing I have to mention is that like I said before Cimil is bonkers but I just love her. She is hilarious and I can't wait to read her book.

     In this book, Cimil plots for one of her "brothers" to have a surrogate and from the moment Penelope meets Cimil she is thrust into a crazy existence that turns her world upside down. Penelope learns of the existence of gods and vampires and demi-gods and many a paranormal creature.

     With every book, I am liking this series better and better. I can't wait to see what else is in store for this crazy bunch and how will all this unravel since everything goes to shit by the end of the books.
