Audiobook Review: Final Shot by Rosie P. Burke

Final Shot (Dropped Puck #6)Final Shot by Rosie P. Burke
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Okay, I want to know if Bryan will be my book boyfriend for the week. He's so yummy, yummy you could just eat him up. I'm not sure what Olivia's problem is... hold on, yes I do.

Best friends from the time they met, Olivia and Bryan were bound to push boundaries. But would this boundary be something they could come back from? Olivia made up her mind ten years ago, will circumstance bring her decision to an end?

Wow, Rosie, you really brought the tension to light in this book. I loved feeling the tug and pull that these two wonderful characters brought to the page/ear... whatever; they brought it.

Another hockey romance listen that really had me going. Narrator Harlow Wilde did an astounding job nailing character voices.

I'd like to thank the author for the opportunity to listen to and review this book.

Review: Mission by Dani Elias

Mission (Aftermath #1)Mission by Dani Elias
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Will has a dangerous job. One so dangerous that his wife realizes she can't be a part of his life because of it. At the beginning of the book, you're taken through the heartbreak that they both feel with this decision. But when the unthinkable happens, will the love they once felt for each other be enough to help him become what he once was before the mission?

This novella packs a punch y'all. It had me sitting on the edge of my seat and there was one scene in the book that was written so well I felt a little sick for Will and what he was going through, and what Katie had to do to make it right again. But... you're going to have to find that out on your own when you pick up this outstanding book.

I'd like to thank the author for the opportunity to review this EXCELLENT book. 10 stars if I could!

Review: Coming Home by Melissa Whitney

Coming Home: (Home Series, Book Two) (The Home Series 2)Coming Home: (Home Series, Book Two) by Melissa Whitney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a sweet book to follow Melissa Whitney's book Finding Home.

Nat just wants to be seen as an equal in all things. She wants to be Dr. Owen's, but all the town sees is the daughter of Dr. Owens. The one who came into the office when she was little, but would all she be is the little girl, or could she be the woman she was meant to be?

Noah, oh sweet Noah. The man who is dealing with demons of his own was still present enough to know and see Nat for who she really is, a woman first, then a doctor. But when Nat's ex starts crap with her Noah swoops in and saves the day.

Would their feelings for each other hurt the ones they loved, especially Nat's brother, who is also Noah's best friend? They decide not to chance it and that causes strain enough to tear them apart... or does it? To find out, you have to read the book.

I loved the characters in this book so much. They were real, deep, and honest. I'd like to thank the author for the opportunity to read this book.

Review: Unthinkable by Dani Galliaro

Unthinkable (Ohio Rusties #2)Unthinkable by Dani Galliaro
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I loved being able to read a book that had a FMC who was more like me than anyone I've ever read before. Mara suffers from POTS, MCAS, and HEDS, which I suffer from in addition to other ailments. But to find a character so like me felt life affirming. If she can power through all the things she has to deal with, then yes... I can too.

Jack... well, I wasn't expecting him. Jack needed more from Sydney than she could have ever given him, and now he's found someone who's willing to give him what he needs and he does the same for her. (Once he pulls his head out of his butt!)

This has a great set of characters, and I love how Dani writes.

I'd like to thank the author and Happily Booked PR for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Review: Fumbling in the Dark by Nichole Ruschelle

Fumbling in the Dark: Vegas After DarkFumbling in the Dark: Vegas After Dark by Nichole Ruschelle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I wasn't 100% into this book, hence the 4 stars. There's something about the reverse grumpy/sunshine vibe that I think threw me a little here, but I didn't hate it.

Janae would rather read than going out on a blind date on Valentine's Day (who wouldn't), but her friend Sam talks her into going out with a friend of the man she's "dating" she reluctantly gives in.

Shane hates people who are late. It's a pet peeve of his. So when Janae shows up late, he knows that this blind date isn't going to work. At least until he sees her. It's love at first sight, and boy does he fall first, and fast.

This novella picks up pace with some great spicy scenes, and good character development. I look forward to seeing where Ms. Ruschelle goes from here.

I'd like to thank the author for the opportunity to read and review this book.
