A Wild Heart by Amie Knight

 Happy Weekend, my peeps!

I hope you're having a great one! 

And I highly recommend this new release if you're looking for an emotional, sweet, HEA! 



I LOVED this story! 

My Review:

Holy wow, Weston & Emily!! Wow. Wow. Wow!

So, I was prepared for emotional with this story. Emily is a widow and a single mom. Weston is a widower. You will need tissues. 

Every single tear is WORTH IT. 

I love this story so, so much! I did want to Gibbs-smack Emily more than once... Also SUPER happy to have so much Holden & Miranda in the story - Miranda is one of my favorite characters ever, so to get to see her forming a friendship with Emily was fabulous! I also wanted to Gibbs-smack Holden a couple times, tho... 🤣

Then we have Parker. Emily's daughter is awesome & I love her part of the story!! 

This is a story of healing & hope. Weston is grumpy, but his heart is OMH MAGNIFICENT! Emily is also grumpy. LOL Her wild heart gives the story its name, tho, and her strength and bravery when she follows that heart... beautiful. 

Amazing read, and I highly recommend it!! 

😍😍😍😍😍

Fractured Sky by Catherine Cowles

 This story is BEAUTIFUL!

It is healing.

It is cathartic.

It is the perfect ending to this series - and is a favorite of 2022! 


My Review:

This is everything it should be! Everly and Shiloh became forever attached by their experience when they were young. This series begins with Everly & Hayes finding their HEA. It ends with Shiloh finding hers.

We get bits & pieces of Shiloh's story throughout each book, and we meet Ramsey later in the series. 

In Fractured Sky, Shiloh and Ramsey are uniquely created to save each other, to be the perfect partners in life because of the tragedies in their childhoods. Ramsey keeps himself locked away on his ranch, allowing very few ppl into his space. We see him forced to open up a bit in Boden & Laiken's book, and I was hoping he would get his own HEA. Seeing him with Shiloh... I was so glad they were together!! 

I love the way these two interact, the way they stand up for each other, their protective feelings & actions. And the horses!! The way they have patience to guide these abused animals to healing - and the parallels to their own healing - it's beautiful! Lots of emotion in this story!

I love Aiden & Elliott, Kai, Onyx, the family they build, the healing with Shiloh & her family... again, emotional and beautiful!! 

Happy sigh.

(Also, there are some really well done suspense elements, and of course some heat!)

😍😍😍😍😍

Monster in the Moonlight by Jamie Schlosser


Jamie Schlosser is AMAZING! 

She has a multitude of titles, ranging from New Adult to Rom-Com to Fae. 

Her latest release is book 1 in a duet separate from but connected to her Fae series. 

And it is AWESOME!




My Review: 

Oh my goodness!! Ellister is definitely on the darker side. He's lived thousands of years without a soul, without a conscience, and that can definitely weigh on a Fae! A trick, a spell, brings back his conscience but not his soul. Still, from the second he comes into contact with Hannah... something begins to shift, and we see glimpses of his heart before...

This is a tough read bc of what Hannah is going thru. My heart broke! It will be mended... but not until the second part comes out! Thankfully, that's releasing fairly quickly! 😉

I loved the story, even with the 💔. These characters are rich, emotional gold! 

😍😍😍

Highly recommend all of Jamie's books! :D

Never Trust the Living by Lani Lynn Vale

 This is the last book & the series & boy was it worth the wait!

Bram & Dory are sweet once they are together-together. ; ) 



My Review:

Ok. Bram & Dory have been the mysterious couple teased throughout the Battle Crows series. The way everyone treated her until Gracelynn in the last book made it seem like she was a raging jerk. As we found out, THEY were the AHs. 

I love Dory & Bram, & am super happy they got their HEA - and that it included the Crows I've fallen in love with making amends. I love the relationships Dory & 2 of the brothers in particular build, too! I did NOT love all the crap thrown her / their way to get there, but she at least didn't have to go through what Gracelynn did, which was a relief. Somewhat. 😂 And it was a good dose of suspense there.

Anyway, excellent end cap to this series, and I'm happy the family came together and Bram got his head straight, to give Dory the love & family she deserved!!

😍😍😍

Have you given this series a try?

I didn't connect with all of the stories, but I did connect with this family & the saga as a whole. I love the Crow family's closeness and banter, and am happy that they all got their HEAs, even if some of them were quite the struggle. 




Let me know your thoughts on the series if you've read it!

A Wild Heart by Amie Knight - Cover Reveal

 Amie Knight is giving us another emotional and fun story, from the looks of it! I love this series - AND the covers! They're beautiful and a lil steamy in an artistic kinda way. ; ) 





And this blurb!!!


A Wild Heart, an all-new heart-tugging and emotional standalone romance in the Heart Series from bestselling author Amie Knight is coming October 27th, and we have the first look at the beautiful cover!


I lost a huge piece of myself the day my husband was killed in action.
In the months that followed, I felt like my grief would swallow me whole.
My only solace was my daughter, whose bright light guided me through the darkest of times.

I never wanted to meet someone else.
I vowed to never fall in love again, especially with a marine.

It was supposed to be no strings attached and for a while it was.  
But Weston Reeves’s grumpy soul called to my tortured one.
Maybe it was the midnight rides on his bike or the way that only I could make him smile.
He lit me up, set my body afire, and for the first time in five years made me feel alive.

Our relationship was probably the worst gamble I’d ever taken.  
But my stupid, wild heart needed him, even if our love was destined to burn me to ashes.

One more month & we can all gush over it together... Plus, this gives you time to discover the other books in this series of stand alones if you haven't read them yet - or you want to do a re read! 


TTFN!

Wingspan by Cambria Hebert

 Cambria Hebert has been on my favorite authors list since her Take It Off series. I think I saw a teaser for Text on Facebook & it sucked me into the world of intrigue created by this talented author. Then I devoured the stories before it & chomped at the bit for the stories after it to be released. And, at the time, I was strictly a paperback reader, so I also may have petted all the pretty covers... :D 


Anyway, this post is not about that series! Or the House of Misfits series, which is another favorite... 

THIS is about her latest series, Westbrook Elite! 

Book 1, Wet, is full of that signature intrigue, and is about Ryan & Rory. And we're introduced to Jamie Owens, our hero of Book 2, Wingspan. Bro, his wingspan plays a very big (heh) part in the story! 



My Review:

Wow!!! I didn't want the story to end. I love Jamie & Madison! They have so much banter and wit to their relationship. The way he pays attention to her reactions & adjusts his responses to make sure she knows she is always safe with him is really beautiful! 

Love getting more Ryan, Rory, Wes, Max, and the others, too. Each character is fully developed and awesome! Family, friendship, and of course the steam - it's all wonderful!!

Stunner by Jessica Prince

 Happy New Release to Jessica Prince!

Stunner is book 3 in the Whiskey Dolls series. 

This series has been full of fun reads! : ) 




My Review:

Asher & Owen are ALL KINDS of swoon! Their story is fun, steamy but not OTT, and has a dash of suspense. Oh, and cute puppers! 😁

I loved this story from the very beginning, and it was a quick read for me. I loved Owen's protective instincts with Asher, and the way they communicate. Owen makes the point that their relationship might seem to be moving fast, but he's had feelings for her since they met, so there's no need to "waste any more time!" 

Also some great friendship conversations between the other Dolls & Asher, which was great to see! 

😍😍😍
