Without Borders: A Wanderlove Novel

Without Borders: A Wanderlove Novel 

Amanda Heger

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 

This gave an Insight to a place many people will never have the chance to visit themselves (me included).

Annie is intending to spend a month in the American rainforest where she will be getting some experience in health care. The rainforest isn't like helping out in a medical clinic it is so much more. It has culture and dangers unknown to developed countries.
She is spending the tour educating the locals in sex ed and giving medical aid. She will be with her best friend and her older brother.

Felipe has always had a crush on Annie but didn't realise his feelings may be reciprocated.
This is a romance novel with a difference.

4 stars out of 5. Worth the read if you are looking for something different.

The Playboy's Convenient Bride

The Playboy's Convenient Bride 

Kristin Frasier, Haylee Delane  

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

There are quite a few billionaire bride books out there but I have to say I really enjoyed this one. The story had a good depth to it and the characters had dynamic personalities.

Garrett is finishing up his time at college before life gets serious. His future involves taking over the family business and leaving behind his playboy ways. After winning the big college game he is out celebrating with the team when he is photographed in a compromising position.

Astrid is Garrett's personal tutor and has been for years. She has her own problems to deal with and even though becoming Garrett's fake fiancé sounds crazy she is just too in need to turn it down.

5 stars out of 5.

Wanting More

Wanting More (Love on Campus #2) 

Jessica Ruddick

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ❣

This was pretty good. Its strange, this week I have read two books with the same story line idea but both were completely different (Wanting More and Playing Defence). Both were courtesy of Netgalley.

Bri is smart and makes educated decision in life rather than impulse. She has a life plan and doesn’t take risks. She is a post graduate student who also works as a student guidance liaison. She is assigned Josh’s case. He is her complete opposite. He is all about the party lifestyle and taking risks. Unfortunately for him, his carefree attitude has landed him on academic probation. He isn’t really interested in education and has no idea what he wants to achieve from it. 

Bri has her hands full with Josh from day one. He isn’t interested in studying which might be a problem if he intends to pass his courses. She finds herself making a bet with him without even realising she has been played. Josh is charming and actually quite bright he just needs to apply himself. Bri has her eyes on improving his grades and Josh has his heart set on Bri. 

Fun college romance that is worth the read.  4.5 stars out of 5.

This can be read as a standalone.

Prophecy Girl

Prophecy Girl (Angel Academy #1) 

Cecily White

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥

I like this book but I didn't love it.
This is the first in a series of books (two in total so far).
Amelie has the mundane teenage life to deal with mixed with demon hunting. She is training to be a guardian and her new trainer is more than just a piece of hot eye candy. With the world around her cracking at the edges Amelie has to juggle saving the town with finding a prom date. Her attraction to Jack isn't her only problem but maybe he can help her fulfil the prophecy.

Playing Defense

 

Playing Defense (Corrigan Falls Raiders #2)

 Cate Cameron

 

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I really enjoyed this book. It's worth the full 5 stars. It's a sweet teen romance which shows how an unlikely couple can show each other a brighter future.


Claudia is smart and all about studying to get into the school of choice. One of her teachers suggests tutoring other students would look good on her college applications. She takes on Chris a hockey jock who doesn't have much interest in academic studies. He is a happy go lucky carefree spirt. The total opposite of Claudia. 

She learns him maths and chemistry. He learns her how to let her hair down every once in a while.
I would definitely recommend this book it's a nice sweet read. 


This book is a standalone story however the characters from book one are featured in this book therefore it's probably a good idea to read that first. I haven't read the first book and I would say it had no affect on this. I am curious about Karen and Tyler's story though.

Promised at the Moon

Promised at the Moon (Shifter Rising #1) 

Rebekah R. Ganiere

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ❣

I enjoyed this story but as a shifter novel I have read better. I have read a lot of werewolf etc romance novels and I guess I have come to have high expectations of the word Alpha. To me it means cocky and dominant, this just wasn’t this book. I also felt the shifter element was more a curse than anything. If you take this book for what it is ignoring my hang ups on shifter novels the story its self wasn’t bad.

Natasha was promised to Daniel when she was naïve and young. As they got older he turned out not to be who she thought he was and had a cruel nature. She realised she couldn’t go through with the matching and decided she needed to escape her fate. She believed Daniel was vindictive enough to kill her parents and she found herself having to set up a new life.

Liam is a lone wolf who is paid to help Natasha set up her new home and gives her the option of attending the local college. He doesn’t want to get too attached but feels she is in need of guidance. He has his work cut out for him because he doesn’t realise how naïve she still is.
3.5 stars out of 5. This is a standalone novel which will become part of a bigger series.

Fjord Blue

Fjord Blue 

Nina Rossing 

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I really enjoyed this book. I have read quite a few gay romance books now and I have to say I am a fan of them. This book reads as if it was written by a seventeen year old boy which is good because that’s what it is supposed to be. 

Ben has started getting into trouble partying too hard and playing too recklessly. One night he takes it too far and is lucky to escape with his life. His parents decide enough is enough and ship him off to Norway to work on his grandparent’s farm. Even lives on the farm too and he ends up rooming with him. Even has his own troubles and is trying hard to keep his head down.

This book is about being honest with yourself and not being afraid to go after what you want but if only life was that simple. To be true to yourself may have consequences but to be happy you have to be yourself.  

5 stars out of 5.

Misbehaving

Misbehaving (Sea Breeze #6) 

Abbi Glines

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I love Abbi Glines her stories are always guaranteed to be good. This book is part of the Sea Breeze collection and I would recommend you start at the beginning as the characters intertwine.
Jesse is a local bad girl from the wrong side of the tracks. Her future doesn't appear to be full of roses but that doesn't mean she's going to settle for anymore of her exes pathetic excuses.

Jason is the brother of rock star Jax. He is tired of living in his shadow and wants to escape for a summer vacation to try and figure a few things out. He didn't expect to be rescuing a damsel on his way into Sea Breeze but looks are deceiving and he may have just stumbled across a wild storm.

A Shade of Vampire

A Shade of Vampire (A Shade of Vampire #1)

Bella Forrest   

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This book has been advertised a lot on Facebook especially lately and I cannot believe have not read it sooner because I loved it. It reminded me of a cross between Beauty & the beast and Twilight (More Beauty & Beast than anything). I have to be honest I’m a huge fan of movies and books with this theme. This book is part of a much bigger series and there are already quite a few books out there so I look forward to reading on. This book does have an ending but it leaves you wanting more but that’s okay because it is part of the kindle unlimited range.  

Sofia is away on holiday with her surrogate family when she gets into an argument with her best friend. It is her seventeenth birthday and he is more interested in pursuing other girls. Sofia decides to take some alone time to clear her head when she is discovered by an alluring stranger. That is where her nightmare begins and she is about to be transported into someone else’s world. She has never really fitted in well in her current situation but that doesn’t mean the grass is greener on the other side. She is introduced to the dark prince, Derek. She is enslaved to him as part of his personal harem.

Derek has his own demons to fight and welcomes Sofia as a distraction. There is something about her that he finds fascinating and he can’t help but be protective of her. She brings out the humane side of him and he wants nothing more than to keep her close. 

This is a vampire romance book which is set in its own magical retreat. I loved this book and can’t wait to read more. I intend to add the other books of the series to this review as I read them therefore if you haven’t read this one already please avoid reading further as it may contain spoilers.

This book has been said to be better than Twilight and I have to be honest so far I would say no but that doesn't mean it is not worth reading.

A Shade of Blood

Bella Forrest   

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I am quickly becoming addicted to this series as a sequel it most definitely didn’t disappoint. I would recommend you start at the beginning. This is another book free for kindle unlimited readers so if you have this I recommend you start reading this series.

Book two shows life after the prince of darkness but once you have had a taste it’s hard to go back. Sofia tries to get her life back on track and she sees everything she ever wanted before the shade quickly within fingers grasp. The problem is she cannot get Derik out of her head or the nightmares out of her head.  

5 stars out of 5. Loved it.

A Castle of Sand

Bella Forrest

 

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This one was okay but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the first two. I think the reason for this was because the prologue gave you a grimace of what was going to happen and I just couldn’t wait to get to that part.

As the synopsis for this book states this is called sandcastle because they are a temporary state of beauty. The sea washes them away. The temporary bubble they have created is about to burst.

Derek’s father has returned to the shade and isn’t too welcoming for his sons choice of mate. He has his own vision of the vampire paradise and it does not include equal rights.

The hunters are stepping up their game. They are becoming more confident and gaining more knowledge of the shade.

The plot thickens in this book. Sofia’s past comes back to haunt her and it is just another ugly demon in the closet.
