You know that is a recipe for disaster...or is it the recipe for love? This book is definitely worth the read so add it to your TBR, buy or borrow a copy and find out why I loved it so much!

I really enjoyed this series. They all take place at the same time and fit together seamlessly. Each girl has their own issues of the heart. They also have drastically different ways of handling their situations. This book is about Maggie, who is a planner and tends to try to control things. I enjoyed reading about Maggie's situation and how she learns that she doesn't need to try to control things. Relationships are about two people and they each have their own ways of doing things. I did feel sorry for poor Weston because he didn't see any of this coming. This was definitely a wonderful series and I am sad to see it come to an end.

CharacCover/Title: I see how the cover fits the story but it is kind of plain. I do like that the title doesn't give you any hint of what is to come.
Characters: I really felt connected to the characters, especially Brooke. Her grief almost comes off the page as you read. Branson seems like a fun brother to have and Charlie just seems so sweet.
Plot: I love time travel books but this one is different. The characters can't travel to any time, only a small part of their past.
Overall: This book is heart-breaking but yet uplifting at the same time. You can really feel for the characters and what they are going thru. I really enjoyed this different look at time travel. ...more

Characters: Once again, all the characters that I like are back. There is no end to great characters in this series.
Plot: There is so much going on in this book. Cam & Chastity deal with the orphanage issues, their own family surprises and Mac finally meets his soul-mate. Maybe not quite what he expected but he finally found what he needed.
Overall: This series just keeps going. There is always something new happening as the characters and the pack grow. I am looking forward to what happens next. ...more

This one is totally different. Not bad, just different.
Characters: We meet a lot of new characters as Grant takes Shelly back home to his pack. I really liked a lot of the characters. I am not a fan of Nancy or Lachlan, which was the author's intent since they are the villains of this book. I did like the other characters introduced.
Plot: It was a nice change of pace to leave Cam & Fergie's packs and head on over to Scotland to meet Grant's pack. Grant has some work to catch up with his brother and cousin but he has some really great people in his pack also.
Overall: I enjoyed this look at the other pack that is briefly talked about. I would love to read more about them in future books. I am looking forward to more in this series. ...more

Characters: I love that although the author kept the same characters, a few new ones are introduced throughout the book. I can't wait to read more and learn about the new pack members.
Plot: The last book ended with Rebecca being kidnapped and this book picks up there. I loved the story line. Even though I would say Cam is the MC, the series rotates around a central group of characters. The reader really gets a lot of insight into their daily lives. These characters go thru so much but they work together to get thru any issues that arise.
Overall: I love this series. I am trying to think of any unfinished business left for this series. I can only think of Mac. I really hope that he gets his HEA in the next book. I will definitely be reading on to see what happens with this crew. ...more

Characters: I love the new group of wolves added to the mix. Of course, the old ones are there as well.
Plot: The plot in this book didn't seem as deep as the last ones. There was a bit of fighting over a woman but not much else until the very last page. Of course, we have no idea what this new threat is.
Overall: I still love the series but I wish there had been more of a plot to this book. The first couple had so much fighting and drama that this one was a tiny bit of a letdown. I still can't wait to read the next book though. ...more

Characters: I love that the characters from book 1 are carried over. There are some new characters introduced as well.
Plot: The book picks up exactly where book 1 left off. Of course, there is a new threat that they had no clue existed. This new threat is even more twisted than the last.
Overall: I really like this series. I am definitely looking forward to book 3. However, I am hoping that book 3 focuses on Fergie and giving some conclusion to his issues. He seems to have been forgotten about halfway thru this book. He isn't mentioned after he admits how he feels. Overall, a good series that I plan to continue. ...more

Characters: I love the characters. Cam is always fighting who he is. His friends are also likable characters. They are easy to like and relate to.
Plot: The story revolves around Cam, his friends and his uncle's pack. I love how Cam is moved to help the pack even though he doesn't want to be alpha. Even though he is the MC, the author centers in on other characters at points throughout the book so the reader sees things from their view as well.
Overall: I really enjoyed this book. I love shifter stories and this was no different. I am looking forward to reading book 2. ...more

Plot: The plot idea could have been good but the book just didn't keep me interested. Honestly, I fell asleep twice while trying to read this book. I finally just decided to plow my way through.
Overall: It was an ok book but not one of my favorites. I was a bit disappointed because the plot idea had potential. It just didn't live up to it. ...more

Characters: Emrys might be my favorite character, I mean who doesn't like a talking cat? Morgana is definitely not what I expected in this book. Arthur is a bit one dimensional as we do not learn as much about him.
Plot:This is a very different look at Morgana and Arthur. I like that she was a strong character. I also liked that Arthur stood up for her and realized that she didn't mean for any of that to happen.
Overall: I love the note from Morgause & the song that plays at the beginning of chapter 7. The augmented reality really brings this story to life. I would love for it to be longer and a deeper plot. ...more

Characters: Van is kind of superficial and has a lot of growing up to do. She is definitely not my favorite heroine at all. Her best friend is also very superficial. Some of the other characters are ok. I did like that you got a lot of background info on the MC. I just didn't like her much despite all the insight into her and her life.
Plot: This book is full of adventure. I loved the magic thrown in and the world building is definitely well done. I think my favorite part might have to be the Minotaur. I really loved his story and how he got into his predicament.
Overall: I enjoyed this story despite not liking the MC very much. If the MC had been more likable, I think the story would have been so much better. However, it was not a bad story and I enjoyed the adventure. ...more

Characters: The characters are ok. I kind of felt bad about Cage. He seems to be stuck in the middle of Zan and his father. Zan & Vikka are ok characters but I didn't feel much of a connection to them. I did feel somewhat sorry for Vikka because of how callously they treated her family.
Plot: There is so much going on and the secrets make it more complex. There seems to be a bigger problem at the end but it is very brief and not well explained. I am guessing that is left for the next book.
Overall: This was an interesting book. There are lots of secrets. Overall, it was a good way to spend an afternoon....more

Characters: I really enjoyed the characters even though you don't get much background info. I definitely would have liked more background but the story stood well on its own. The story seemed to center more on the spellcasters and the lycans were more of an afterthought.
Plot: It is definitely an interesting start to the series. I am intrigued about the spellcasters and what they can do. I wish the Lycans had a little more to do with the plot. John is really the only lycan in story with a brief appearance from a few others.
Overall: I was pleasantly surprised with this book. I really enjoyed the new view of lycans and their spellcasters. I am definitely looking forward to reading more about them. ...more

Characters: Although I liked the characters somewhat, I feel the reader isn't let in on much. There is no real background other than they were created for the games.
Plot: The plot definitely mirrored The Hunger Games. There are some differences. Instead of having your name drawn to be a competitor, they were created just for this game.
Overall: I wish there had been more background detail. Their daily schedule seemed to be eating, fighting and having sex. I couldn't picture their world or life very well. I would have liked to have learned more about their lives and their world. ...more

Characters: The characters were mainly older people as the book takes place in a retirement community. I did like how they were each quirky in their own way. I did not care for the MCs son at all but her cop friend is definitely a friend that anyone would want.
Plot: The plot centered around the retirement community, the residents, the staff and the police. I enjoyed the little twists and turns in the mystery.
Overall: This book is a pleasant way to spend an afternoon. ...more

Characters: There are so many fun characters in this book, I doubt that I could pick a favorite. I love the fairy godmothers. Their antics make me smile. Salem is another fun and quirky character.
Plot: I love the story line. There is a lot happening in this book including a few surprising twists. I won't say anything else because I don't want to spoil it for future readers of this book.
Overall: This is a fun and quirky book. I loved so many things about it. The characters, the fun title/cover and the overall story. I will definitely be reading more by this author. ...more

Title: So far, the title doesn't fit the story. Well, I guess it could if it was a complete story.
Characters: Well, I feel bad for Elle because everyone keeps telling her how awful she was before the accident. Way to help the girl who can't even remember who she is! I like Rae since she tries to help Elle out and steer her in the right direction. It is hard to like the characters since you are going back and forth between 2 worlds, I guess. You don't really get to know them.
Plot: The plot is somewhat convoluted and messy. The author goes back and forth between Cinderella's story and Elle's. Almost like it was a past life and all of them were part of it.
Overall: It was an ok story that could have been better if it wasn't told from so many different perspectives from both lives/worlds. It ended up being hard to follow and then it ends abruptly. I was shocked it just ended with no conclusion at all. Which guy is she gonna choose? No idea since the book ended without wrapping anything up. When I went online to look, I found out that the author took a previous book and cut it in half. She then rewrote that half and this is what is left. Seriously, authors need to stop thinking it will make people buy the next book. I certainly won't pay for half a book and I am glad this one was free....more
