I don’t know what to say, I'm shell shocked!
This final book in the series was action all the way. Most of the action takes place in 2036, and the twins are sixteen, well Mallie is 16 but Silver is not quite there.
Suddenly the AI robots gets infected with a virus, and they start fighting back, which is causing human deaths. We have all the same characters from the last book. Seeing the twins as teenagers and the world they live which depends entirely on AI. There’s anarchy on the streets with mobs attacking Bots everywhere. This series is addictive and has left befit , but I can't recommend this series enough if you love pure Sci-fi. As I have reviewed all the books the narration has been perfection keeping in the books all the way.

Review: Storm of the Gods

Storm of the Gods by Amy Braun
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
This is an action packed start to a new urban fantasy Series. I will say quickly this an adult series, as some of the situations and violence is quite extreme, but totally in proportion when dealing The Olympians, especially Ares who happen to be Derek and Liam’s boss. As they have his diluted bloodline It entitles him to treat them worse them slaves.
I loved the brothers Derek and Liam and how they stick together. Derek is very protective of those he cares about. This is a fascinating read Amy Braun gives you a handy prefix to go through their elements. So if your mythology is a big rusty this is a good reminder. As we meet Scions from different gods it’s a helpful reminder.
As this is book one there is the world building, but don’t worry it still has plenty of  action. I enjoyed reading this a lot and devoured in one go. Now I’m waiting for book two.

It was so lovely to be a guest at Stryder and Rory’s wedding, with Colby as best man.
It great as we really get to know the older Colby and what made him tick. Ryan has been Rory’s friend forever so we really get inside her head.
Then when Colby goes home is feeling quite lost and lonely he meets Sage, who is Rocky’s sister and now is living a few doors away.
This is such a interesting and compelling ending on a good note for Colby and Sage.
This duet is a must read and I loved it, but you will have read to get to know the older and wiser hunky Colby. I have always been a fan, I just glad his getting own story.

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
It was a real pleasure to read this book, as I have had a soft spot for Amanda and Jordon after meeting then in More Than Friends.
So meeting a mature Tuttle was pure pleasure, he had everything he wanted in life, but it was empty without Amanda. Amanda thought she was okay until she saw him being interviewed, and messaged him.
So if you have followed their romance this is a must read, but if you haven’t followed the couple from high school, this is a wonderful well written second chance romance. To feel the love read the first 2 books. Then you can approve of the adult Mandy and Jorden and there forever. For me this was a real pleasure, a must read for fans of Tuttle and Amanda.

We follow Conner McBride after he sells the farm and property after the death of his mother. Conner is world class musician and plays the violin. He leaves Ireland and goes to Vermont to work on a farm and old Inn that his employee and friend introduced him too via internet.

This is a book full of spies, and bad men that need to be behind bars. There is love between Kate and Conner and I was absorbed and listened in one go and now need the next one. This book had everything, and it had to be listened to carefully in case you miss something.
I really enjoyed listening to the narrator’s voice, and his Irish lilt was pleasure to listen to. I kept me so focused on the action the time sped to fast.

Review: Tall, Dark, and Irresistible

Tall, Dark, and Irresistible by Erika Wilde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Review on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
I couldn’t resist a book with the title Tall, Dark and Irresistible and I was right, I loved it.
Peyton lives in New York and to keep her overprotective parents of her back, she told them that  Leo Stone her boyfriend looks after her, and not to worry.
Peyton was madly in lust and had big crush on Leo in Chemistry at college where they were lab partners.
Of Course her cousin is getting married and her parents expect her boyfriend to come and stay for the week.
Things I enjoyed about this book is Leo is a nice guy as well as being swoonworthy. Peyton is a great girl, being an only child she wanted save her parents worry
When they meet up and Leo agrees to the ruse he realises the chemistry between them is off the charts.
A Hot sexy funny romance and I loved it. The narration was duel, so we hear from both Peyton and Leo. I always dual with a romantic comedy. You really do feel like a fly on the wall. So this is a must read for fans of pretend boyfriends who are so hot you must really want to know what happens and how they get there.

Review: Their Vampire Princess: The Complete Series

Their Vampire Princess: The Complete Series by Harlow Thomas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
This is a one audiobook, but contains the following novellas Chosen, Crowned, Turned, Mated each novellas is quite short. This is about a young Vampire Princess who has to choose a human consort from 4 young hunks from the human world.
As this a Reverse Harem, Felicity can’t make a choice, so all four go back to palace with her. There is plenty of sex, and plenty intrigue to try to keep Felicity from taking the crown.
If you enjoy a reverse harem with plenty action in the bedroom, and plenty of angst before everything falls in place
The narration by Lucy Laurel is very fast, and sounds almost breathless. It more a reading than the narration with different voices.
It was a quick listen, but no less enjoyable for it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was my first foray into a Carla Neggers murder mystery. I so glad I did , I also love a complex plot which takes the readers on the journey from Boston, London, Ireland Dublin, and back to states with the investigators putting together all the parts of the puzzle.
This was also very character driven, bringing to life all the driven groups leaving me as a fly on the wall. I was absorbed right to the end. Just for the record I did not guess who the murderer was.
I really enjoyed this book, obviously the characters all have history and reading the books in order would give more background on some of the characters. I read this on its own, and the story to do with the crimes completely standalone, and I enjoyed this mystery very much, it’s always great to discover a new author .

Review: Everything Under The Sun

Everything Under The Sun by Jessica Redmerski
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Reviewed on Behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
The first thing I have to say before I start writing my review. I am waiting for me to stop my tears even though the book it finished on promising note.
This is a long but addictive read about what happens after the crash of civilisation. When we meet Thais its seven years after the fall, she lives with her father and her sister Sosie. They appear to be surviving until her father is killed and the sisters are captured and sent to Lexington where civilisation has devolved to an alarming degree.
It’s in Lexington is where she meets Atticus and they escape and start their journey to Shreveport where it’s a good and fair place to live. Lexington was worse than the old west.
The things made this such a good book is how realistic everything felt and unfortunately it rang too true.
How far would you go to survive and how it changes you on the inside if you let. Atticus struggled everyday with what he had to do, and it was Thais that kept him going. Sometimes people are made stronger and learn to survive.
This is Atticus and Thais journey to civilisation, and a long and arduous journey, where meet a lot of different people some and some bad. It was how they both changed into good and strong people who can survive in this new world. I loved this book every page of it. Be prepared for your emotions be very involved and get tissues ready.

Well Lisa has done it has me hooked and in love with a Dirty Rich Asshole, Reid Maxwell. I loved the chemistry right from the beginning between Carrie and Reid. Even if they both did not want to feel it.
Reid was fascinated with Carrie as she bested him at his own game. Handcuffs certainly piped his interest, and for that moment on Carrie was going to be his. Unfortunately for both of them working together to rebuild her family’s company causes them to respect each other.
This is a hot sizzling romance between two people who don’t believe in relationships. The thing I love about Lisa’s books is the female characters are always strong-minded and give the men a run for there money. Carrie is no different, but she can’t resist Reid even if she wants too.
I can’t recommend this book enough, if you love hot strong men with a heart of gold, and the women who can’t help loving them, enough sparks to start a fire then this is for you.

I so love getting involved in a series from the beginning. So I jumped at the chance to review a new paranormal sci- fi with hot sex thrown in. It’s a win win for me!
This series is based on earth, which is ruled by an alien race that have a problem with fertility, and only women with certain genetic match are chosen. Endora has always known she was a match but never consider the idea.
Unfortunately Tallie, Endora’s daughter has leukaemia and is fading fast. The only thing that can save her is the Alien technology, and that costs money she doesn’t have.So Endora does the unthinkable and leaves her daughter with her grandmother and goes to report in.
High Lord  Aldric Darragon rules what was America and one of the strongest of lords. What Endora doesn’t know is that Aldric had seen her years before when she was with Wilmer Tallie’s father. Aldric was enchanted, but since then he had closed his heart down.
I really enjoyed this book with action all the way. Great romance, lots of action, cute kids and nasty bad guy , all mixed together gives my an action packed adventure with great world building so we have a base for book two. I loved this book and read it in one go, So for me this series is going on my must buy list.

Review: Blood Cure

Blood Cure by K.A. Linde
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow what a finale to a great series, after the end of the last book I thought all was was lost. This book is an action packed with so much happening, especially with Reyna. At the end of the Blood Match the resistance was in disarray, after so many killed with others missing. Reyna comes into her own, her confidence and her ability to take charge and find many of the members of Elle.
This is a great book with Beckham and Reyna growing even more in love. The shocks and disappointment and the treatment of the human population keep coming. Something happens that no one could predict that give Elle an advantage.
If you have read the first two books in the series this is a must read, if you haven’t I can’t recommend this trilogy more, especially for lovers of paranormal romance with an action packed kick.
Great series I have loved it every step of the way, so for me this is a 5 star read to finish this addictive trilogy.

We are finally here the book we’ve all waiting for, this part of the puzzle is told through the eyes and ears Cynthia and Gareth. 
I could feel the love and passion with this couple straight away.When Cynthia discovered that Gareth was Brad's brother, she is heartbroken and it made her feel the eight months they spent together meant nothing to him. I  couldn't help falling for Gareth even if he was Brad Manon’s brother and hadn’t told Cynthia.  Cynthia discloses the information  she discovered connecting Gareth with Brad to the police.
Gareth really loved Cynthia as he shows in this book, and it wasn't just the men who are strong. I really loved these books because the women are strong and capable as well.  Also the  love and affection between them, as they stick together. We see more of the couples as they get together to try to figure things out. In this episode, it reminds me of an episode of murder mystery where the more you know the more confused you get. We see a lot of the Laurel and Grace helping Cynthia to keep sane and supporting each other.
This has been a great trio of books, and I admit I did not guess who the killer is. Just that this was a worthy action packed finale. That’s all for now.

Review: Lachlan's Protégé

Lachlan's Protégé by V.F. Mason
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
My god Lachlan’s protégé is a compelling, but dark read. This is no fluffy romance, it is psychological torture. The story is told a dual pov which works very well for this story. Also we see plenty of flashbacks as we learn about Lachlan and Valencia stories.
This starts as a normal romance, but quickly moves into something much darker. No one is who you think they are, as we the author leads you down a darker road.
V.F Mason has wove a dark but compelling read, Valencia is a loving and kind person and had a almost perfect childhood. As soon as she meets Lachlan she knows what she feels is something stronger than she has felt before. Valencia has never been in love, but with Lachlan the sex is hot. Lachlan’s childhood was barbaric and someone has to pay.
This is not a book for the faint hearted, but if you like a psychological thriller with some hot sex you have been warned. If you like things darker then what are you waiting for?

Why You Were Taken by J.T. Lawrence

Review on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
This book starts as the prequel ended, when we find out Kristen, one of Keke friends is in danger.
Kirsten is a photo Journalist and has lived with James for 13 years and is trying to get pregnant
So at the beginning of this book, Kirsten is mourning her parent’s murder. When going through their stuff she starts looking at photo albums, and realises there is no baby photos. Nothing under the age of three.
So Keke is investigating why there is no trace of her birth. Never realising the hornets’ nest she opens. I not going through the whole story. All I’m going to say is this a phenomenal series, I thought the prequel was great, but this knocked it out of the park. This is book one in the series and is action packed the more you listen the more you want.
When Kirsten realises that everyone on the list before her code is dead she finally begins to believe her life is in danger, and she is going to get to bottom of it. In this book you really get a feel for the world they live in. One where the ordinary people will never believe what is happening . That’s what Keke and Kirsten are there for, they make a great team. This action packed sci-fi with our heroes tackling an evil corporation and winning. This is told from Kirsten's pov, so we really feel for and the strength she has to show to survive. We also meet some more heroes in this book, you will have to read to find out who.
The narration was superb, with a cast of many that fills this story never faltered. No once was I pulled from the story thinking about a dodgy voice.

This book one in what is going to be a terrific series as Aaron and Danielle realise what powers they both discover themselves.
What they discover is nothing they could have ever imagined. This is book one in a series, but the girl saga is finished at the end of the book, but the wider story I hope will follow on in book two. I don’t want to spoil the story, but this a wonderful magical beginning and can’t wait for more stories in the next book. Also I was jealous of Danielle having  access to all those old books.

THE GATHERING by Bernadette Giacomazzo is a great book and as book one in a series it builds this future dystopian New York with this gutsy and unique book filled with danger and brimming with energy. In this future, New York it’s a dictatorship and ruled by an Emperor who terrorising the people with The Cabal.
The Cabal use psi energy and can turn into a zombie or a biddable puppet, and that's how anyone not obeying the rules is treated.
This is great series I can’t wait for the next book, this starts with Rock and Roll, which is then banned by the Emperor or Roger Cunningham.
Three fighters from different backgrounds and walks of life find themselves at the front of the freedom movement in the hopes of restoring New York City to its former glory before the days of the dictatorship of the Emperor and his terrorising Cabal.
But danger lurks around everywhere with most of the citizens terrified to make a wrong move. But they will not give up because there is too much at stake.
This has everything a new series needs, a great beginning I loved this book and can’t wait for the next one. This is definitely written for an adult audience with the language and some situations. This is a five star read for me. A great sci-Fi/dystopian adventure. So long live The Uprising I’m hooked.

This is not a pretty tale, but it felt so real and Lexi Blake had me hooked right from the beginning to end. I love Asher, so old for his age, looking out for mother at all times
Abused women need to learn to live for themselves, before they can start a happy relationship. Wade was lovely supporting Genny all the way
Loved Asher great kid, brought into the protective family of McKay-Taggart when his mum starting working there. This was a heartfelt story that I loved, and can’t wait to read more from the members of McKay-Taggart.
