I haven't read ed Steve Berry in a long time, and have definitely missed a lot of the Cotton Malone books over the years.

However it was great to get back into his thrill a minute world.

I have always been curious about whether Hitler really did die in that bunker.

Our guys are sent on a treasure hunt from continent to continent on the search for the bad guys.

I never knew which way this tale was going to turn, and enjoyed the fact I didn't guys things before they were revealed.

I look forward to catching up wirh this Series.

I have been on the M Robinson train since her first release, and I will read everything she writes.

The Kiss is her first foray into the rom-com market, and whilst I enjoyed the story, it didn't really have a rom-com feel to me.

Don't get me wrong, there were times when I did laugh otu loud, but to me, this was more like her regular stories, but in the angst-light category (if you have read any of her tales before, you know how they are angsty AF).

I also got a vibe like the Good Ol' Boys series, with the friendships between the guys and the girl.

Except these guys didn't really mature as the got older (to me anyways). They were still acting like teenage boys snickerig about sex all the time, which got a little tiresome for this old duck.

I do love a best friends to lovers story, and I loved how everyone could see it but Mila and Leo - and even loved the ways they tried to get them to remove their heads from sphincters and go for it.

Whilst not my favourite M. Robinson book to date, it was a good read, it just missed the rom-com mark for me.

Now I need the other guys books, STAT!

If you have read Ms Campion's previous books, you will have met the owner of Lizzie O's B & B, Ellen. But if you haven't, this does stand alone, and you won't be missing out on things.

A Week To Remember brings together a group of strangers, and this one week will change all their lives.

Because sometimes you need to travel half way around the world to find your "home".

There are quite a few characters, so it will take a little time to get to know them all, but once you get your head around each of their stories, you won't even notice them all, as they all have such unique personalities that come off the page

I adored each and every bit and piece we get of all their stories. Though at times predictable, and we kind of knew where things were all going to end up, it was interesting and intriguing the whole way through.

I do feel that I need more of one character, Mia, I want more of her story.

A lovely story that will whisk you away to Ireland for a wonderful week.

I am looking forward to more from this author.

For the first time ever, I nearly called it quits on a Brittainy C Cherry book

ARC recevied for an honest review

Firstly -yes, this is an age gap romance. No, there is nothing illegal about it!

Each time a new Carian Cole book comes out, I say to myself "this can't be as good as the last book", and every time I am wrong.

Don't Kiss The Bride is a beautiful story of two people who need each other, without even knowing it.

Lucky and Skylar are two peas in the same pod, really. I don't want to give too much away, as this is a story you need to just immerse yourself in, but you will get it when you start reading.

If you have read the Ashes and Embers series, and in particular Asher, you will have met our main man Jude (you would remember him as Lucky). It was great to see these particular situations from the other side. It made me smile big when Asher turned up.

This is a slow burn of a tale. There is an instant bond between our lovelies, however it was beautiful and heartbreaking and wonderful watching a relationship grow.

Skylar is such a strong woman. I wish I had half her strenght and gumption when I was her age.

And I can guarantee that you will fall hard for Jude.

I don't know how else to say how much I love this book. So buy it. Devour it. Love it.

It has been forevvveerrrr since we have been in Feverish world, but it was just like meeting up with a best friend after years of not seeing each other.

LFS's drummer Dane was a great way to dive back into this world. I liked that he is the quiet one, the one alwasy watching, in life and from the back of the stage behind his drums.

He is so not the sex and drugs and rock and roll type these days, and you know it is going to be sweet when he finds the one that brings him to his knees. And Charlie is jsut that. She doesn't take any of his crap, she won't let anyone walk all over her, and she's his perfect.

I liked that there wasn't anything OTT, no stupid drama and the like. There was someone that I thought might be one to start drama, but I liked how it was dealt with.

Most of all, though, I loved seeing more of my favourite JCJ man, Clay. Now I need to go back and read his story again, as I hadn't realised how much I had missed them.

I can't wait for more. I need Brian's story, STAT!

2.5 stars

If you are a woman (or a man) of a certain age, you know who Jake Ryan is, and had a bit of a crush on him.

This is our leading lady, Mac. She is waiting for her own Jake Ryan - and good on her for not settling - but sheesh, she is a 39 year old woman acting like a teenager.

I got so frustrated with her, the lying to her family about fake boyfriends, letting her mum act the way she does (and boy, what a witch she was most of the time). I wanted to yell at the mother, but mostly I wanted to slap some sense into Mac and tell her to grow the eff up.

Ugh. See, frustrating.

And then when she does find a guy she doesn't roll her eyes at, she ogles a guy with a wedding ring *my eyeroll inserter here* I mean, gees she just screams desperation and unlikability.

This story could have been fantastic, but for me it was childish and a bit unlikable.

But maybe this is just that I an too old for the Jake Ryan thing (as looking at it with adult eyes, he really is a bit of a douche the way he treats his girlfriend).

It has been a long and torturous wait for Asher, however every single moment of waiting has been worth it to get this book as it is.

I have been intrigued by Ember's story throughout the A & E series, however this story was more than I could have ever expected.

I knew going in that this was going to be an emotional story, however I was not expecting the toll this was going to take on me. I wanted to turn each page, however I had to put it aside a time or two to give myself a breathe.

Asher was all killer, no filler. The reader does not get a break from what is happening, so make sure you are ready to be mentally exhausted as you keep reading.

This is a story that I feel that the reader needs to just dive in and ride the wave - and make sure they have a strong grip, as they are going to need it. IT is raw, gritty andd powerful.

Asher is everything any woman (or man) could ask for in a partner. I loved seeing more of the Valentine extended family as I was reading.

I will love this book twice - now and forever

Carian Cole has done it again with No Tomorrow. This book has been worth every second of the wait.

Piper and Blue's story is as beautiful as it is heartbreaking. From the start there is a beautiful bond between them, one that we should all aim for. They really are soul mates in the truest way.

It was wonderful being on their journey of falling in love for the first time. Beautiful, addictive, would do anything for you kind of love.

However, being a Carian Cole novel we know things are never going to go smoothly for our lovelies.

As much as their love is beautiful, it is toxic too. I don't want to give anything away, however just know that you are going to be taken on a rollercoaster of a ride.

I never knew what I was going to get as I turned each page of this book. Would I be laughing? Would I be crying? Would I be throwing my Kindle across the room? Sometimes it was all in the same page!

No Tomorrow does deal with some dark issues like addiction and mental illness, and it is done well. As someone who suffers from depression, this cut right to my heart.

It is a day since I finished reading this book, and it is still with me. I am still thinking about our lovelies.

I have read everything by Carian Cole to date, and I have to say, No Tomorrow is right up there at the top as a favourite. I already feel like I need a reread, and I am jealous of everyone who gets to read this for the first time.

I can't wait to see what Ms Cole brings us next.
