NOW FREE 0N AMAZON – “Plenty of drama, and a touch of suspense and a HEA in a beautiful Victorian setting” – Last Chance Christmas: A Fairfield Corners Novella by

 


From the outside, Brent Halston and Jordan McKenna had the perfect life: the house, the dog, fulfilling careers, and their love. However, Jordan’s past refused to leave her alone, threatening to destroy all they had built together. Without explanation, Jordan pushed Brent out of her life, leaving him devastated and confused. In an attempt to start over, Brent relocated to Fairfield Corners, bought an extravagant house, and mourned the loss of his Jojo. To keep herself from drowning in her own grief, Jordan gave everything she had to her career as a doctor, running the free clinic on the rough side of town. As the holiday season approached, a frantic phone call from Jordan’s brother pulled Brent back into Jordan’s life, giving them the opportunity to reconnect. Battling the past and present, their love must survive secrets and betrayal, giving them one last chance to be together.

5 Stars for Last Chance Christmas

Another winner from LA Remenicky! I didn’t get into the Christmas spirit at all this year, but as I revisited Fairfield Corners this week, I decided there was no reason not to read a Christmas Story in February, and I am so glad that I made the right call. I am in love with Fairfield Corners – such an idyllic small-town setting. Add in some rockstars and hot cops, what isn’t to love? This quick read stars one of Adam’s bodyguards from his touring days, and the sister of another. (And another totally cool dog as well.) Plenty of drama, and a touch of suspense, and a HEA in a beautiful Victorian setting. This could certainly be read as a standalone, but why not read Cassie and Ragan’s stories too? I absolutely adore this author, and hope we will see more books and novellas in the Fairfield Corners series – the town is so well described it could be another character in the series, and I adore it! If the weather could be 70 degrees year-round it would probably be exactly where I would want to live.

EPIC

Sit back and dig in for this EPIC journey across the sea.

There are so many wonderful things about WHISPER OF SUFFERING by Samantha Jacoby that I’m honestly not sure where to begin this review. I will write it the same way i told my friend about it the other night…

The journey the female protagonist takes is leading her towards finding her true self. Whether by fate or luck, she sets upon a path of no return. Along the way she travels on a ship with a couple of good guys who protect her from the trials and tribulations of such a journey.

Oh… There are also dragons and elves and mermaids and more. This story is written so visually that I actually dreamed of the characters in my sleep.

This is not a compact story and a few times I had to read back a few pages when I picked the book up again. At no time did I want to skim or skip to the end. It was a fantastic story and I look forward to continuing the series.

I think this tale would keep middle grade children all the way to an elderly book club entertained and I absolutely recommend it.

“Spectacular message for youth. Life-altering philosophy.” – The Day Jake Ran Out Of Hugs by A.Nicky Hjort

 


While waiting for his forever home, Jake helps others in need with his heartfelt and magical hugs. But when he loses his hugs and he’s the one in need… what will happen next?

Spectacular message for youth. Life-altering philosophy.

It’s like good parenting lesson wrapped into a fun read. As a parent I’m always looking for books that teach my son in jolly ways. If we take Dr. Hjort’s book to heart, our children (not to mention adults) will go through life easier. Can’t wait to hear more from this author. She’s got the magic touch. Super cute illustrations too. Very clean. I’m ordering it for many people for gifts and will tell our elementary school’s librarian about this one and this author!

A beautiful book with a beautiful message

This is a beautiful book with a beautiful message about the power of love and showing kindness. It’s impossible not to love Jake from the first page. The love in his heart is so genuine. I’ve always been a fan of Ms. Hjort’s writing, and her first children’s book is no exception. The illustrations are lovely as well. My kids loved it, too, and I can tell it’ll stay one of our bedtime favorites.

Great Read

The Binding was a good read by Samantha Jacobey. Merideth is that daughter of a wealthy politician. Her mother is murdered and she finds out that she is next. Rider is ex-military who is placed in charge of protecting Meri. Meri and Rider find her mother’s old book to find out who is after her and why. I enjoyed reading Meri and Rider’s story and can’t wait to read more by Samantha Jacobey.



Cat

Read it for Halloween.

A witch story reimagined. I loved the plot and characters and the pacing was wonderful. I read a fair amount of paranormal literature and found this one fresh and fun. This author has a great command of many genres. I hope there will be a second book to follow. Read it and have fun.

I really enjoyed reading it!

It’s a very thrilling story and I loved how unexpected the ending was. A very well-written novel that I enjoyed reading a lot.
Rider and his father are attending the funeral of someone his father knew a long time ago. He doesn’t understand why his father has brought him here when he didn’t even know these people. Apparently the deceased was someone special to his father and now his father wants to help the family uncover secrets that are better forgotten.
Meri has just lost her mother. She is still in shock and grieving when she meets Rider. Suddenly, two youngsters are thrown together due to unexpected circumstances. It seems that Meri is in danger and for some reason Rider is appointed as her bodyguard. On the run, as they spend time together not only they learn more about their past but also pave a path to their future, a future that neither of them had anticipated.
It’s a fast-paced novel. I liked the flow of it and the characters too. I think that it is a very good start to a promising series. Also, it is a bonus that the book can be read as stand alone.


Brian P. Lane

 Good witching read

This was a very entertaining read. Ms. Jacobey devises some very cool twists in the “battle” between old and new witchery, soul possession, and the darkness of sorcery.

This story is about best friends Sarah and Karen. It is their dabbling in witchcraft that brings out a nasty witch by the name of Morcant. There is also a romance in the background with a maybe bad guy Blake?

This book has solid writing and very gripping action between almost all the characters. This a read I will recommend and hope you enjoy it as I did.
