My Review 4 STARS
This is a quick novella series that focuses on three sisters and who they find their mates, whether they be shape-shifters, were wolves or vampires.

We get an underlying story running through the books and the story runs quite fast.

I enjoyed these little nuggets and plowed through them very quickly.

My Review     4 STARS
**My thanks to NetGalley and Victory Editing, for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This is the fourth book in the series and can be read as a stand alone.  I have not read the rest of the series since 2021 and still had enough info in this book to continue the series.

I like this authors writing.  It flows well, grips you in the story and lets the characters work out their mistakes and come together in harmony.

I really enjoyed this book, and even though it seems over fairly quickly would very happily pick up this author again.

REVIEW - Legal Wolf's Mate (Their Furever Mates #1) by Eve Langlais

The Book
Release Date: 4 October 2016

In Legal Wolf's Mate, taking on a pro bono murder case isn't a problem for a lawyer who enjoys a challenge. Discovering that his new client is his mate? A tad more complicated. Gavin has no intention of settling down, especially not with a woman accused of murder, but once he sets eyes on Megan, his fate is sealed.

My Review    4 STARS
**My thanks to NetGalley and St Martin's Press, for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This was a fairly quick read where our FMMC is not quite as she seems and Gavin shows his background fairly quickly.

Its a very fast moving book and our characters get together very quickly once they have been introduced.

Gavins world gets all but turned upside down when he meets Megan, but he knows who she is to him almost immediately and does what he can for her.

I enjoyed this book and love reading this author.

REVIEW - Turbulent Waters (Billionaire Aviators #3 Turbulent W) by Melody Anne

The Book
Release Date: 7 January 2017

A daring pilot finds himself in danger of losing his heart.

Coast Guard pilot Nick Armstrong savors the taste of danger. But after his helicopter crashes into the ocean during a mission, shattering his knee, he encounters a whole different type of thrill when he meets his new physical therapist. Maybe being grounded isn’t so bad after all.


Smart, sexy, and deeply guarded, Chloe Reynolds is the type of woman who drives Nick crazy for all the right reasons. But as she tries to help him heal, Chloe struggles to keep her heart—and secrets—safe.


For years, she has been told that Nick is responsible for her brother’s death, a “fact” that she slowly learns may not contain the entire truth.


But can Chloe’s growing feelings for Nick, and their undeniable chemistry, really overcome a years-long family feud? Or will the past ultimately destroy the future they both desperately want?


My Review     3 STARS
**My thanks to NetGalley and Montlake Romance, for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

I normally really like the book by this author, but this one was just meh.

Nick is a coast guard and flies the helicopter, unfortunately he has just been in an accident that cost the lives of his crew, and very nearly his as well.

Chloe is a physical therapist. Nicks uncle has brought her in to help rehabilitate Nick, but she has her own secrets.

Nick likes Chloe from the start, but she keeps a barrier between them, that he must push at no matter how much she says no.

Its a little slow to start, lots of self doubt, secrets and the chemistry between the two just doesn't;t sit right. He comes over more pushy over what HE wants, rather than respecting what she is saying.

It's an ok book, can be read as a stand alone even though it is part of a series.
