LOOK AGAIN: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 10 (Logan McKenna Series)LOOK AGAIN: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 10 by Valerie Davisson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is one of my favorite mystery series. I highly recommend checking this series out and reading them in order so that you have consistency amongst the characters. The way that the author writes these stories, you can input yourself and take part too! Logan is a great character who finds herself in some of the most interesting predicaments that she has to find a way out of before her favorite people suffer. Check this series out! You won't be disappointed!

Sea of Death (Jake Wolfe Thrillers Series) by Mark Nolan

 

Sea of Death (Jake Wolfe Thrillers Book 8)Sea of Death by Mark Nolan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a truly enjoyable series! Each book may be read as a stand alone but I encourage you to read them all!!

If you're looking for action, adventure, a thrilling mystery, and a dash of romance, then Jake, Cody, and Sarah have you covered. I love that there is a retired military dog as a part of the cast of this series and he really steals the show!

I'm ready for the next one in this series to drop!

Dressing Up A Corpse (A Spicetown Thanksgiving Cozy Mystery) by Sheri Richey

 

Dressing Up A CorpseDressing Up A Corpse by Sheri Richey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a fun and entertaining story leading up to Thanksgiving week here in the US. It's a quick read that you can most likely finish in one setting. The residents of Spicetown are a bit quirky but that makes for some fun, along with suspense, of this cozy mystery read!

Chasing Love (Clumsy Little Hearts Trilogy Book 3) by Julie Navickas

 

Chasing Love (Clumsy Little Hearts Trilogy Book 3)Chasing Love by Julie Navickas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

*Sigh* It's so much fun to read a series that just leaves you feeling good at the end of it. Even when the bride-to-be has cold feet and says and does silly things that she'll one day look back on and possibly regret. This entire series is great and the conclusion leaves you feeling satisfied. Each book can be read as a stand alone but you'll miss some character development reading them out of order. I love the fact that Cole and Rose have been committed to each other from such a young age. It was cute learning more about their back story and how they've made it to present day.

Match Made in Montana: The Complete Series by Rachelle Paige Campbell

 

Match Made in Montana: The Complete SeriesMatch Made in Montana: The Complete Series by Rachelle Paige Campbell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is one of my favorite series that I've read this year! If you enjoy a slow burn but clean romance with a enemies to friends to relationship kinda trope, be sure to check out this series. Each book could be read as a standalone but it's more fun to read them as a boxed set! Hank is my absolute favorite character in this series and I think you'll love him too!

A Chance At All by Angela K. Parker

 

A Chance at AllA Chance at All by Angela K. Parker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I seem to be drawn to books about second chances! This was an enjoyable read about Nalah and Nicoli. I love the fact that the characters are a bit older than is usually seen in books of this type. They have life experiences that the younger set hasn't generally had yet and I love how the author made them so personable. If you're looking for a "feel good" book, this one might just cure that ache!

A Catch In Time: A Macabre Novella & Short Stories by Christopher Alan Broadstone

 

A Catch In TimeA Catch In Time by Christopher Alan Broadstone
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The writing in this book is among some of the most unique I have ever encountered. It sucks you in pretty fast and takes you for a ride through various short stories set in the time of WWII. There are twists and turns and gruesome tales of the horrors of war. With the writing style being so unique, this book might not be for everyone but I encourage you to give it a chance!

The Shackle: escape from the knot of restraint (The Knot Series Book 2) by DonnaLee Overly

 

The Shackle: escape from the knot of restraintThe Shackle: escape from the knot of restraint by DonnaLee Overly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in a series but these books can be read as standalones. I enjoyed the storyline of this novel, although it deals with the challenging topic of human trafficking. The tale of Stan and Marie is a very believable one and this book is hard to put down once started.

The Trinity Knot: releasing the knot of silence (The Knot Series Book 1) by DonnaLee Overly

 

The Trinity Knot ( The Knot Series #1)The Trinity Knot by DonnaLee Overly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Some will find this to be a challenging read as it deals with the topic of sexual assault. There is a theme of redemption and forgiveness throughout but the experiences that Gabby has had are very trying and difficult. This has a good ending but will send you on an emotional roller coaster ride along the way.

One Night in Amsterdam (One Night in… Series) by N.D. Jackson

 

One Night in Amsterdam (One Night #1)One Night in Amsterdam by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a quick little novella that had my wondering if the story would be complete in just a few short pages. I was not disappointed! Trish and Nate were best friends who lost touch for awhile. They meet up in Amsterdam and they find themselves building into something more. A sweet story with a HEA.

Axel has been in Italy for awhile but he misses his friend Kerrington. This book is a series of letters written back and forth between the friends. The focus of this book is to remind readers that it's ok to make new friends and to keep the communication lines open with already established friends.

A very sweet book about two friends exchanging messages across the ocean and keeping lines of communication open.

I Move A Lot and That's Okay: A Book for Military FamiliesI Move A Lot and That's Okay: A Book for Military Families by Shermaine Perry-Knights
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Axel has to move a lot and he's ok with that. Axel's mom is in the military and they are now having to leave their home in Ft. Benning, GA to go to Italy. This book talks about the changes that Axel is having to go through.

This would be a great book for any military family, but could also be useful for a family who is moving for job reasons that are not military related as well.

Midnight Deception: Later-in-Life Romantic Suspense (Lone Wolf Heroes Book 1)Midnight Deception: Later-in-Life Romantic Suspense by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's a rare treat to come across a book that has main characters of a more mature age. This one does not disappoint!
Sabrina lives a double life. By day, she's a "mousy" looking receptionist for billionaire Brent and by night, she's an emcee at a burlesque club. What a contrast! Sabrina's son makes a bad deal and now Sabrina finds herself in a bit of a quandary.
This book is full of mystery, twists, turns, secrets, and more keeping you turning the pages!

Fans of Harry Potter will love this series! This is a fun, cozy read about a young lady and her adventures in Botany School with a magical twist. Join Briar on her journey with her friends and watch their relationship develop into friendship, and for some, romance. It did take several pages for me to get into this story but once it picked up, I didn't want to put it down.

A great ending to this series!! These books can be read as standalones and you'll find yourself wanting to read them all. There is so much excitement and drama in this one that it will keep you engaged from start to finish. The threats facing Con and Neve are more intense than ever and the mystery will have you second guessing your theories.

I look forward to more from Ms. Eden!

Knight On Edge: A female detective mystery (Jorja Knight Mystery Series Book 7)Knight On Edge: A female detective mystery by Alice Bienia
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an amazing series and I think each book just continues to get better and better. One doesn't mess with Jorja Knight! She's going to solve the case no matter the cost. This time around, the cost is a bit higher with so many different things at stake. It's hard to put this one down so just go ahead and settle in to read start to finish!

Tasha and the Biologist (A Better Man, Book 2) by Amy Q. Barker

 

Tasha and the Biologist: A Heartwarming Small Town Birding Romance (A Better Man Book 2)Tasha and the Biologist: A Heartwarming Small Town Birding Romance by Amy Q. Barker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tasha is a nurse and a bird enthusiast. Caleb is a biologist and a researcher. It's only natural that these two souls would be mildly attracted to each other, just based on professions. Caleb has sworn off ever dating and marriage is completely off the table after enduring a recent divorce. These two have sparks right from the start though and watching their relationship develop made for a great read.

This is heartwarming read that will leave you with a smile on your face. The characters are very relatable. You'll probably find yourself falling in love with Barnaby too!
