Review: Wiretaps & Whiskers (The Faerie Files #1) by Emigh Cannaday (DNF)
Wiretaps & Whiskers is book one in the The Faerie Files by Emigh Cannaday. I wanted to like Wiretaps & Whiskers, but unfortunately this book didn't work for me. I ended up DNF'ing at 37%. I had trouble getting into the plot, world, and characters. Nothing captured my attention. Our leads, Elena and Logan,… Continue reading Review: Wiretaps & Whiskers (The Faerie Files #1) by Emigh Cannaday (DNF)
Review: Axel (Single Daddy Shifters #1) by Tasha Black (DNF)
Axel is book one in the Single Daddy Shifters series by Tasha Black. I wanted to like this novel. Sexy single shifter dad’s. Ya! Who doesn’t like a single sexy shifter daddy, but it turns out I couldn’t finish. It’s got no depth. No plot. No personalities to the characters. Just bland. My other… Continue reading Review: Axel (Single Daddy Shifters #1) by Tasha Black (DNF)
Review: Hampton (Wild Mustang Security Firm #0.5) by Delta James (DNF)
Hampton is the prequel to the Wild Mustang Security Firm by Delta James. The first few chapters were promising, a kickers woman putting an arrogant loser in his place and a hot US Marshall coming to her defense, but then things changed fast. Things go from promising to not quick. I didn’t care that… Continue reading Review: Hampton (Wild Mustang Security Firm #0.5) by Delta James (DNF)
ARC Review: Hardest Fall (Dominion #2) by Juliette Cross (DNF)
Hardest Fall is book two in the Dominion series by Juliette Cross. You can read these as stand-alone, but I feel you need to read the series in order; because of the overall arc plot happening. I really like Juliette Cross and her writing, but this time around I couldn’t get into the novel. I… Continue reading ARC Review: Hardest Fall (Dominion #2) by Juliette Cross (DNF)
Review: Rescued by the Alien Pirate (Mates of the Kilgari #1) by Celia Kyle & Athena Storm (DNF)
Rescued by the Alien Pirate is book one in the Mates of the Kilgari series by Celia Kyle and Athena Storm. I’ve been on a Sci-Fi Romance kick lately. The cover and title intrigued me, so I decided to give this new series a try. I’ve liked other books by Celia Kyle, but have not… Continue reading Review: Rescued by the Alien Pirate (Mates of the Kilgari #1) by Celia Kyle & Athena Storm (DNF)
Review: The Pirates of Moonlit Bay (The Paladin Princess #1) by Samaire Provost (DNF)
The Pirates of Moonlit Bay is book one in The Paladin Princessseries by Samaire Provost. What captured me was the cover for this book and the others in the series. Unfortunately, I was having a difficult time getting into the story. It just wasn’t capturing me and keeping my attention. This could be that I… Continue reading Review: The Pirates of Moonlit Bay (The Paladin Princess #1) by Samaire Provost (DNF)
Review: A Cross to Bear (Gabriella Cross, #1) by M.J. Lovestone (DNF)
A Cross to Bear is my first taste of M.J. Lovestone. I picked this up on Amazon Prime Reading, so it was free to read, unfortunately this book didn’t work for me. This was one messed up story. The writing was not great. This story has cheating, abusive rapist husband, a young silly heroine,… Continue reading Review: A Cross to Bear (Gabriella Cross, #1) by M.J. Lovestone (DNF)
Review: Under Wraps (Underworld Detection Agency, #1) by Hannah Jayne (DNF)
What the blood heck am I reading? I’m baffled by the Under Wraps novel. Under Wraps is book one in the Underworld Detection Agency by Hannah Jayne. I picked this novel up; because of the cool cover and blurb, but let me tell you they are both deceiving and miss leading. They imply a… Continue reading Review: Under Wraps (Underworld Detection Agency, #1) by Hannah Jayne (DNF)
Review: Cowboy Bold (Longhorn Canyon #1) by Carolyn Brown (DNF)
Cowboy Bold is book one in the Longhorn Canyon series by Carolyn Brown This novel was my first experience with Carolyn Brown's writing. I’d heard some good things about this book and others in the series. I started with book one; because I’m a reader who perfumes to read a series in order if… Continue reading Review: Cowboy Bold (Longhorn Canyon #1) by Carolyn Brown (DNF)
Review: Chocolate with a Side of Murder (Daley Buzz Mysteries #1) by Meredith Potts (DNF)

Audiobook Review: A Taste for a Mate (Redwood Pack #1) by Carrie Ann Ryan (Narrator: Gregory Salinas) (DNF)
DNF’d this at Ch. 12 of 29 with 4 hrs and 13 min remaining. A Taste for a Mate is book one in the Redwood Pack series by Carrie Ann Ryan. The prologue is very violent and shocking. The way the wolves change a human is brutal. I don’t know why the fates would give… Continue reading Audiobook Review: A Taste for a Mate (Redwood Pack #1) by Carrie Ann Ryan (Narrator: Gregory Salinas) (DNF)
Review: Fuel for Fire (Black Knights Inc. #10) by Julie Ann Walker (DNF)
DNF’d this one at pg. 169 about 47%. We've met Chelsea and Dagan in previous books. They have had this unspoken attraction to each other for years and now they are getting their story. Fuel For Fire just isn't pulling me in nor is it keeping my interest like, so many others in the series… Continue reading Review: Fuel for Fire (Black Knights Inc. #10) by Julie Ann Walker (DNF)
Review: Record of Wrongs (Redemption County #1) by Sharon Kay (DNF)
I very much love Ms. Kay's Paranormal Romance series, Solsti Prophecy and the spin-off Watcher's Kiss, so when I won a copy of Record of Wrongs I decided to give her Contemporary Romance a try. For those that know me not many CR's win me over. It's a hard sell for me. I started reading… Continue reading Review: Record of Wrongs (Redemption County #1) by Sharon Kay (DNF)
ARC Review: Forged in Fire (The Vessel Trilogy #1) by Juliette Cross (DNF)
I really love Juliette Cross. She fast became a favorite author to read and reread. I feel in love with her writing when she came out with her Dragons aka Morgan’s (Nightwing & Vale of Stars) and then she came out with her Vampire’s (Vampire Blood) and I feel even more. So, when you… Continue reading ARC Review: Forged in Fire (The Vessel Trilogy #1) by Juliette Cross (DNF)
