A Little Bit Country Book 1 of From the Outback to the Sea by Jacinta Peachey

This story starts out with Jazzie and she's reinventing herself again. Every place she's moved to and gotten a job she's been accused of a crime and she's had to relocate to another area of the country and she starts all over again. Her father had embezzled money so she's got the rep of being the same.

She's just gotten a good job and a promotion because she was able to sell her idea of the eggs to another company with regular deliveries. Problem is she celebrates that night with a man she never met, Ben and she leaves in the morning. When she shows up for work they inform her she did not get that contact.

They get to spend time together and I love hearing about his love of wood as my son has that career now. SO imaginative. Super love hearing of Jazzie's work with yarn as that's right up my alley. I can picture her creations and have made many of my own design as well.

Fire sets the town into action by helping restore everything that was lost, mostly the garden plants and she can't believe how it all happened. Her parents come to a fair where she's showing her crafts along with the ladies and they tell her she will get through it. She finds out she's disqualified from something her father had done. It just never goes well with them.

Love how this all plays out and Ben and Jazzie get to really divulge their secrets to one another. Precious.

Book Review: Scarlet Odyssey by Brian H. Roberts

  

 

Scarlet Odyssey by Brian H. Roberts

Justin and David grew up as siblings. Oldest is the bully. Years later they both own a place of business. They are now selling high end boats. David makes the deals and Justin's name is on all the sales. Justin finds out later that his name is on the sales and he questions David and they think they should go to the authorities. Justin has traced the LLC to the cartel.  At a gathering the boys and The fiancée attended but Justin has been sold into human trafficking. Ends up in the jungles and working in the mines, and he meets a priest that helps him out but it's a long road home. He has evidence. So many brutal assaults, deaths and gore in this story.

Like how Justin helps others when he can....love the retaliation. So justified for his family members.

Like how this moves into the next book: earth minerals on Mars and how Justin plans to get them for US  companies he owns...

Didn't think I'd enjoy this book as much as I did. Well thought out. Very descriptive details, felt at times I was there in the room. Would like to read more form this author.

 

Book Review: Montana Sanctuary by Josie Jade

   

 

Montana Sanctuary by Josie Jade

This story is about Evelyn and she's on the run. Thought for the past several years she was safe, now she knows he's back again. She has the collection of rings to prove it so she moves on. Like how she tries to protect herself and lands at a sanctuary ranch where others are healing and they all form a nice team working through things. She also has a job in town and she waits on others and the owner bakes. She enjoys it.  Story also follows Lucas who's got problems of his own. He also is a horse whisperer and he has one client that's giving him a hard time. He has hallucinations that wake him up night and he has to put on every light in the house and just walk. He sometimes walks outside where he found Eve and they get to talk and he keeps his distance, telling her in his way that he knows she's hurting.

Nathan from Eve's past thinks he owns her and her body, etc. He's on the trail again and he's found her again. The black rose petals throughout her cabin are the sign along with a piece of jewelry.

She is petrified and Lucas will take her into his cabin from there on. The men ramp up the security around the property as they find out more details about Nathan.

His money can buy anything... Last ditch effect the men leave to get Nathan. Eve's friend at the coffee shop call and needs a jump for her car. The two surrounding Eve all go and things are going ok, the car won't stop they will just drive her home.  Nathan shows up and explosions occur and he's able to kidnap the two women.  Such a scary tale from then til the hospitals scenes. Eve is conscious again and Lucas leaves to get a snack. When he returns there is the black rose petal... So scary for them all. Nathan had bought his way out of jail and state police guarding him to show up at the hospital.

Creepy book for me but i just couldn't put it down. Love the ending. Like hearing how Eve actually was able to help with the animal therapy program as the horse didn't like men. She had grows up knowing what to do with horses. Would read another book in this series. Very super descriptive and chilling to the bone in some instances.

Her Guardian’s Salvation by charlee james

Love this story about Ivy who's a house inspector. When she's on the job she hears others in the house and knows she has to escape from where she is, heads to the woods and gunshots follow her. She falls down a cliff and Jude is the one to find her. He is having his annual cabin in the woods retreat to forget aobut how his family died and he blames himself. He is able to rescue Ivy.

It's only the beginning as she tells her story to him. Investitive cops take over and track down leads to find the men and it gets more involved from there.

What a story!  Adult situations but love the moments she is able to connect with Jude because of her brother Ash who has some of the same ailments that he deals with. Love catching up with the rest of Jude's team and their lives.

Would recommend this story but best if read from the very beginning.

Can't wait to read the next one already.

Book Review: Bait the Devil Book 2 of A Bounty of Shadows by Winter Austin

  

   

Bait the Devil Book 2 of A Bounty of Shadows by Winter Austin

Story starts out with Dot and she's on a mission to catch the bounty for her and the group.

She's not a PI yet but others are and they get leads on the bounty and who they need to be capturing.

Love the step by step process and how they are able to track the culprits down and get them.

Love the team and what they mean to one another and how well they work as a team.

Lots of action, mystery, and adventure.

Like how the missions go on target then things go haywiere and then it even gets worse. Super love the ending, didn't see that happening! Can't wait to read more form the author.

Book Review: Travel With Style by Anastasia Pash

  

 

Travel With Style by Anastasia Pash

Love this book because it's written by someone who's traveled the world since in her young years. She lists a country and tells you about the clothing you should bring, depending on the time of year: all of the seasons.  Even includes day/night temps to be aware of. The customs and traditions are also mentioned along with rules/laws about illegal things and other things that you might do to put yourself in harms way by dressing provocatively warranting unwanted advances. There are so many locations and countries and so much to do that she also lists and how to dress for a theater vs. a walkthrough town.

It's all about combination clothing, where you can wear a light weight sweater in multiple outfits and how to take a photo of the ensemble so you won't have to hassle with searching through clothes that you brought with you.

LOVE FAQ'S  at  the end where she explains which container/suitcase/backpack to use and when and how to pack them properly. SO much valuable information in this book.
