Bad ass + Crazy Girl = One Awesome Story
5 Stars
One of the things I love best about the books in this series are that they are great for on the go, quick pick me ups. They are super funny and Chloe's family just has me laughing out loud with their antics. I love that even the big bad kitty cat is tamed/respectful of his mother *snicker*.

ARC: Roaring for Him (Wicked in Wilder 1) by Celia Kyle
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.
5 Stars
Go, mama lioness! I love the two sides of the heroine, the shy human and her counter the badass lioness. She is fiercely protective of her friends and family, who just crack me up when they get together. Phoebe is a hoot! I even like that there were a couple of loose threads to tug on for future stories in the series. I am definitely looking forward to more in this series. Celia Kyle does a wonderful job of setting up secondary characters that suck you into the worlds she creates and this time is no different.

ARC: An Omega's Heart (The Under Wolves) by Amber Kell
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
4 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
I love the Conley rescued his family. I'm a fan of the best things come in small packages. For such a little guy he had a big attitude.
What did I not like?
I'm sorry Conley had to be the one to deal with his father. Even if they deserve it, it's a hard choice to make.
Recommendation: I was left with some questions on where this series is going. Will his mom get another mate? What about Tesen?

ARC: Stepbrother Charming by Nicole Snow
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
5 out of 5 Stars
This one there was a lot of emotional back and forth. Sometimes you felt bad for him and others times you were like, "what a jerk!". I also had times when I felt the heroine was a prig and others when the attitude felt justified. Their initial meetings really set the tone for the book. I love that his dad got his comeuppance (what a douche) and her mom refocused on what was important. I felt that Dan should have been punished more (little twerp deserved to be strung up by his balls).
Recommendation: It took a while but they got their HEA.

Received a copy of this book in a giveaway.
5 out of 5 Stars
Love how they fit together. Story progression was easy to follow and believe. Love the realism, not everyone will support you but as long as your family and friends do, that's all that matters. I like that they were open about their relationship.
Recommendation: Adorable read

What did I like?
The father loves his kids, despite the fact that he doesn't show it. The heroine has an amazing inner strength to keep going after the accident. Glad they ended up having kids, hoping they have more.
What did I not like?
The bad guy didn't come as much of a surprise.
Recommendation: Looking forward to more in this series. Hoping to see them again in the other books.

What did I like?
Glad she didn't lose too much of her confidence because of that rat. I love how the hero takes care of her.

4 out of 5 Stars
4 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
I love the heroine's spunk and attitude in the trial chamber. I also like that they all work on their individual relationships as well as the whole group's relationship. I'm also glad she got a mom figure, Gerunda, back in her life.
What did I not like?
I find it hard to believe that the council would believe a charge against one of their own when the source is the enemy unless they were just using it as an excuse to be rid of their own men.
Recommendation: Fun read, no cliffhanger, looking forward to more
ARC Review: Pet to the Tentacle Monsters! by Lilia Ford
Received a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
4 out of 5 Stars
4 out of 5 Stars
This was a new one for me. Monster erotica is fun and can be sexy if done right. This one was fun but could be a little awkward with the pseudo-incest (adopted brothers are intimate). It was hard to pick a favorite character. Silver grew over the course of their interaction. Black was a great father and Kitty is just well, a beautiful soul. Benji and Silver's relationship is still evolving so while everyone gets their HEA, there is still room for growth and imagination to take over. I think my favorite part about this story is that he gets a family back. They help heal some of his pain.
Recommendation: If you like monster erotica and BDSM and the possibility of pseudo-incest doesn't bother you, this is a fun read. It was easy to get into and stay sucked into the story.
Sleeping Beau (Mischievous Fairy Tales 5) by Honor James
I won a copy of this book in a giveaway.
4 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
I like that she didn't have to choose between the two, they were able to work out a way that worked for them. The lack of jealousy and the way she made time for both of them was good.
What did I not like?
His mother needs an attitude adjustment. There was a bit of repetition with the dialog.
Recommendation: I enjoyed this read. I might have to go back and check out the others in the series. It was an interesting twist on the fairy tale.

Overall: Fun stories. Some I liked more than others but overall good reads.
*4 Stars*
An Unexpected Diversion - Vella Day
*3 Stars*
I liked that he used his brains to win the challenge. 'Brains over brawn' isn't a normal shifter maxim.
I wasn't a fan of the humans being superior to shifters theory. I didn't feel like the story should have ended without some resolution about Storm taking over the pack. I also didn't agree with how Chuck was handled. I would have expected that attempting to assault the pack Alpha's daughter would have more severe punishment than banishment. I wasn't a fan of Leo's at all, from the way he treated his daughter and her assailant to the way he was condescending to Storm, overall a douche.
Waking the Bear by Kerry Adrienne
*4 Stars*
I disliked the lack of resolution. I wasn't a fan of the heroine. She doesn't seem to have the sense God gave a goose, I really wanted to smack her. Also she did a 180 after hearing he was the bear.
Prime Desire by Andie Devaux
*5 Stars*
When I read Broken Prime, my first thought was 'I hope she does a sequel!'. Here it is *happy dance* The prologue does catch up so even if you didn't read Broken Prime, you were still able to read this one without feeling like you walked into the story halfway. I'm glad that Nicolas's life turned around. I was cheering for him and Erin to get their HEA. I loved seeing his brother and sister-in-law too. Thank goodness for her advice on women or Nicolas would be doomed, doomed I tell you! *snicker*
Bear Essentials by Lia Davis
*5 Stars*
I love the heroine, she was sassy and I loved watching her get her confidence back, 'Go get 'em, girl!'. I really like that she took the time to think and talk it over before jumping in (even if the conversation was short). I like that the fight against April was kinda realistic (taking a bigger/stronger opponent down by hitting weak spots and head injuries). I loved that they appreciated her gentle heart and gift.
Match Made in Hell by Milly Taiden
*5 Stars*
I am hoping she makes this into a series because I love Davi! She is hilarious and ruthless. I liked the closure they got from seeing Kele/Katherine again.

ARC Review: Fever (Club Inferno 3) by Jamie K. Schmidt
Received an ARC of this book via NetGalley.
3 out of 5 Stars
Like: I liked that she fell in love with an older man and was still able to have her first love. I loved that she grew into who she was supposed to be.
Dislike: I spent most of the book disliking the hero and wishing she would ditch him until he grew up. I disliked his friends, I'm hoping they get what they deserve. I blame him for their behavior, If you can't stand up for your girl, you don't deserve her. Dante was way out of line too. It was a real jerk move that he pulled on Chase.
Recommendation: Both parties matured over the course of the book, redeeming themselves (mostly) by the end.

ARC: Outlaw's Obsession (Grizzlies MC 2) by Nicole Snow
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
4 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
I love Rabid. Although he is a hard-ass, let's face it all MC heroes are, he's got a sweet side and it shows. I love Rabid's follow through and way with words. Despite having to be hard to survive, Christa is a softie (emotionally) in the right circumstances. This doesn't make her any less of a bad-ass when she needs to be hard. I love that she can be bloodthirsty when it is called for an still be tenderhearted enough to hurt when her dad isn't lucid. I love the fact that her dad was lucid when Rabid visited, Christa at least has one more good memory. The person you are meant to be with is the one who brings out your best.
What did I not like?
Rabid needed to get his head out of his ass. Christa had some issues about flipping her stand. Some times she was ready to trust him but not really. It was a little frustrating.
Recommendation: I love this one.

Spotlight & ARC Review: The Mate Challenge Review Tour by Milly Taiden
Sassy Mates Book 4 ~ Emma and Mason
Emma Ferro wants nothing more than to accept Mason Wolfe’s offer to be his mate. He’s wild, sexy and can do things with his tongue that should be illegal. But Mason is also overwhelming her with his need to protect and keep her out of trouble. He needs to live and let live. It’s not like she’s killed anyone...yet. Until he learns she’s an independent woman, he’s going to stay waiting.
Mason Wolfe has a problem of the short, sassy and curvy kind. Every time he leaves Emma alone, he knows she’s going to get into trouble. It’s getting to the point he’s ready to slap a tracker on her butt just to keep his sanity. He’s busy holding down the pack, helping with fighting new rogues and a secondary threat that’s come to town.
When Emma goes searching for a missing girl, she finds a lot more going on in Blue Creek than even the biggest shifters are aware of. With the help of the least likely person, she’ll put herself on the line in order to save the ones she loves. Mason will have to find a way to help Emma or face losing her forever.
Reader Note: This book contains wild and growly sex (the hot and sweaty kind), adult language (dirty talk is our middle name), and violence. If this is not the kind of stuff you like to read, skip this book. However, if you like a domineering wolf on a mouthy curvy girl, then this is right up your alley. Enjoy!

5 Stars
I like that she is her own person. Despite the fact that she is independent and strong, we see a more vulnerable side to her and watch her grow with the hero. I love my protective, alpha heroes but I also like watching them get their comeuppance.
Recommendation: We've been waiting a while for this last mating and it doesn't disappoint. I'm hoping for a spin off actually.

Excerpt:
The first time she’d met him, she’d been visiting Ellie’s house to work on a project together and bam! Mason opened the front door, took one look at her and hauled her inside. What came next was something she’d never forget. She’d gotten a single look at Mason with his spiky short hair and crazy number of arm tattoos, nipple piercings and forgot how to talk. Then there was the immediate first kiss. Any other guy to try that and she’d have decked him, but Mason caught her off guard. He told her she was his and proceeded to kiss her like she was the love of his life. Stupid shifter and his sexy tongue. He’d destroyed her thinking ability way back when. Still, Emma wasn’t going to let some shifter tell her what to do.
She didn’t care how sexy he was. She ignored his advances and proceeded to tell him she had a boyfriend, which she did at the time. Did he care? Not at all. He went on to tell her he’d wait because he knew in time she’d be his. Cocky asshole. Though Mason was an amazing man, he was a protector, which was sweet, but that led to him trying to tell her what to do. Her father had done that for too many years of her life and she was not going there again. Not with mutt.

ARC Review: My Stepbrother: The Dom by Arabella Quinn
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
4 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
Glad that he got himself out of the trouble he got in with the loan sharks. Cole showed a lot of growing up in the book. I'm glad that they are including Master Royce and April roles in their relationship. I'm also glad that she was able to reconcile with the family on her mom's side.
What did I not like?
I didn't like that her dad took his hatred of Cole's dad out on Cole and that he was such a jerk that he was willing to do illegal things to get Cole in trouble. I don't like her attitude on his last day of working at Sanctuary, like he said this wasn't a brothel and he wasn't a prostitute.
Recommendation: If you like step romance, this is a good read. There is family drama and morality issues to overcome. Enjoyable read.

I love the fact that Cole stood up with Lindsey and that they were able to reconcile with their packs after the fact. I love that Lindsey has his own pack/safe haven and we discover his family on his father's side. I am happy that both couples got their HEA.
Recommendation: I'm hoping for at least one more (if not more) stories in this series.

ARC Review: My Dragon Masters (Sanctuary, Texas 2) by Krystal Shannan
I received a copy of this book via The Book Machine in exchange for an honest review.
4 Stars
Like: I'm glad they were able to be reunited as a family. Lots of twists and surprises. I felt bad about what happened to the females but the Prince needs someone stronger for the future and the Diana is much stronger than how Eli and Miles remember her. I like strong, independent heroines.
Dislike: Eli and Miles need to get into this century and realize that Diana has grown and they need to keep up and deal with the present rather than get trapped in the past/memories. I feel bad for Mandana, I'm hoping she gets rescued and get to deal the death blow to her abuser.
Recommendation: Though I didn't read book 1, I didn't feel like it was required in order to enjoy this book.

ARC Review: Marrying the Marine (The Brides of Hilton Head Island 1) by Sabrina Sims McAfee
I received a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
4 Stars
Well-written suspenseful read. I disliked most of the characters of the characters. There were many villains in this story. I was glad when they caught the killer and some of them got their punishment. I was hoping more of them would be punished for their part in this tragedy.
Recommendation: Tragic, emotional read.

ARC Review: Fury of Obsession (Dragonfury 5) by Coreene Callahan
Received a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The plans of mice and men...
5 out of 5 Stars

What did I like?
I couldn't wait to finish this book. I love that Venom tried to meet her halfway, rather than just kidnap her like all the others. Can't wait for the confrontation with Rodin, hope they kill the son and Rodin too. Speculating that some of the HE females that Ivar has stashed are mates to the other Nightfuries or perhaps Azrad and his crew.
What did I not like?
I'm starting to think that Ivar is redeemable.
Recommendation: Wondering who is going to be next.
