Rescuing Bryn by Susan Stoker

     In this book, Susan Stoker gives us the story of Dane "Fish" Munroe.  We saw him in Marrying Emily when he and Tex kicked the crap out of a would be robber at Fletch's wedding.  He had lost his entire Delta team as well as his arm to and IED.  In this book, he has moved to Idaho and is living as isolated as possible and fighting PTSD.  Truck, part of the Delta team that rescued him keeps a close check on him, but is worried about his mental state.  This book is about him meeting Bryn Hartwell,  a quirky female with problems of her own, and how their relationship evolves.  I absolutely loved this book.  It was funny, heartwarming and sexy rolled into one.  Bryn knows she's awkward and gets caught up in her own head too easily, but Fish finds that quirkiness a joy.  She keeps him in the present and on his toes and it's just what he needs.  This was a fast moving book and a bonus was we got to see and hear from Ghost and his team.  Fish might have lost his team, but he's been taken into this Delta team that saved him and he is not alone.  I love how them guys have each other's backs and will move heaven and earth to be there for each other.  You'll love this one and I hope you get it today

Naughty by Nature (The Lowell's of Honeywell, Texas, Book 2) by J.M. Madden

    This second book in the series is about Chad's sister Cheyenne and her growing relationship with Sheriff Sheridan Lane.   Cheyenne's history is full of violence and Sheridan is filled with regrets that he didn't do more to prevent it.  As past danger returns to her life, he is determined to keep her and her three girls safe.  That part alone is a good story, but watching thesse two open up to each other and learn to trust again is sweet and heartwarming.  Of course it doesn't hurt that Sheridan is sexy as hell as well as understanding, loving and giving of himself, not just to Cheyenne but to her girls too.  I absolutely love this author and her ability to write such warm, heart touching stories that always grab me on the first page and hold me to the very end. I end up hating that I read so fast.   She always leaves me anxiously waiting for the next book and she did with this one too.  Please get your copy today and sit back and enjoy!!

Untying His Not (The Lowell's of Honeywell, Texas, Book 1) by J.M. Madden

  This is the first official book of this new series and it starts off with a bang.  I love Brock Lowell, who is Chad's brother, and Payton Hanniford, his sister's best friend..  It was a fast moving story filled with situations that made you feel right at home with this family.  Dealing with his Dad's medical issues and trying to run the ranch as well as deal with his own issues keeps Brock busy trying to figure out what he needs to do next.  One thing for sure, he's tired of being alone.  Learning to look at his sister's best friend as something more than "off limits" is hard for him, but Payton is definitely up to the challange.  I loved this story and enjoyed watching them find each other.  You'll love this one too so get your's today.!

Forget Me Not (The Lowells of Honeywell, Texas) by J.M. Madden

  This is the introduction to J.M.'s new offshoot series from the Lost and Found series.  It centers around Chad and Lora, who were introduced in Embattled Mind.  J.M. takes us back to Chad's family ranch in Texas where they have the opportunity to reconnect with each other while the help on the ranch while Chad's Dad recovers from a heart attack. From family illness to problems on the ranch and preparing for a wedding, there's a lot going on with the Lowell family.   I'm partial to anything written by this author and this book is no exception.  This is looking to be a delightful series of books, and this one sets the mood for things to come.  Getting to know this family is going to be fun and full of surprises.  For those of you fond of all her past characters, Ms. Madden gives us a glance of some of them and an update on what's going on with them.  Don't hesitate to start this new series today.  I'm sure you'll enjoy the journey to come.

Wish Upon a SEAL by J.M. Madden

I absolutely love J.M. Madden and everything she has written, especially her Lost and Found series and Elle James is also one of my favorites. I love the Brotherhood Protectors series so this is the perfect pairing. J. M. Madden is batting a thousand with this story. It is suspenseful, funny and sexy--the perfect combination to keep my interest. Our hero, Drake, a Navy SEAL is attending a fellow SEAL's wedding and meets our heroine, Izzy, when her blind date tries to force himself on her. Everything is uphill from there!! Please take the time to purchase this one and give yourself a treat. The only thing bad about it is it's too short. I want more of these two, so hopefully we'll see them again in some stories to follow. If I could I'd give it 10 stars!!

Mistletoe Mischief by J.M. Madden

     If you are a fan of J.M. Madden, then you will be familiar with the characters of this novella.  We've met them in previous books and now have the opportunity to view another small part of their lives.  This is not a stand alone read.  You should have at least read Embattled Christmas before reading this one.  That said, this is a great, fun read and I enjoyed seeing some old favorites and finding out how they are getting along.  Ms. Madden writes a wonderful story and keeps us engaged in the lives of the characters we have come to love.  This is a short read, with three separate stories.  Pick up yours today and step back into the Lost and Found world of wounded, but healing, vets that give me, and I hope all of you, hope. Thank's J.M. for this wonderful insight to some of our favorites!

Marrying Emily by Susan Stoker

     I am an adamant fan of Susan Stoker.  I love all of her series and this addition to her DELTA Force Series is no exception.  This story is a joy to read and lets the reader see all of the SEAL team members from her first series as well as all the DELTA guys from this series and a few of the favorites from the Badge of Honor series.  It was great to celebrate Emily and Fletch's wedding day with all of them and especially fun to see Annie is all her glory.  This child is a star unto herself and she made this story a real joy to read. I encourage you to get this one ASAP and enjoy!!  Another hit for Ms. Stoker and I have a feeling the best is yet to come.

Class of Love by Maryann Jordan

   This is the first of three books in Ms. Jordan's Letter's from Home Series and it is an excellent read. Ms. Jordan writes a wonderfully engrossing story that held my interest from beginning to end.  Ethan Miller, an Army mechanic stationed in Afghanistan and Brooke Thompson, a fourth grade teacher, are drawn together from the first note sent.  Brook has her students writing to Ethan as part of an assignment in her geography class.  The interaction with Ethan and Brooke and especially Ethan and the students is fun and touching at the same time.  Well written and worth the time and money to read it.  I was given an ARC to review, but I purchased my own copy.  Well worth the money. Get yours today and enjoy!!

Love Restored by Carrie Ann Ryan

     I love this writer and have been in love with the Montgomery Ink Series since the release of the first book.  This spin off from that series is just a captivating.  This first book is about Graham Gallagher and Blake Brennen.  Graham is the brother of Jake Gallagher from Ink Enduring.  We briefly met these three in that book and now Ms. Ryan is giving us a look at each brother and the search for their HEAs.  This story captured me from page one and I couldn't put it down until the very end.  Blake and Jake's dance around each other and their discovery of their true selves was fun, emotional and HOT.  I urge you to get this one today and ENJOY.  Besides, you want to be  up to date for the next release!!  Truly, this author never fails to deliver a book that will not only please, but keep you anxiously awaiting the next one.
