TORI

A Soldiers Wish by N.R. Walker

I love the whole concept of this series, the angel ornament made in the first book appears in each book, sometimes in a magical way, sometimes in a mundane way. This one broke my heart at times, although it had such a fantastic ending, it was worth the stress. Loved it!

Galaxies and Oceans by N.R. Walker

Yup! Another one by a favorite author…. And another emotional book! Angsty yet sweet.

 

Alpha’s Sacrifice by Nora Phoenix

This was the first book I’ve read by Nora, and it was great. A whole new shifter world, with some sneaky stuff! I listed this one, but the whole series was fantastic.

 

Honeymoon for One by Keira Andrews

Nice age-gap story, with some excitement! Loved the emotional connection between the two men, and the ending was exactly what they needed, and I wanted.

Hiding the Moon by Amy Lane

I loved this one, it was the perfect cross-over between the Fish books and Racing for the Sun, and featured Burton, a favorite character from Racing.

Hush (audio) by Tal Bauer

I listened to the audio version, narrated by the awesome Joel Leslie. One of the most exciting and nail-biting books I’ve read/listened to in years!

 

Savior by Rhys Ford

Second in this series, couldn’t tell you which I liked better! Exciting, dramatic, and sexy…

 

What Remains by Garrett Leigh

I LOVED this one, I’ve just gotten around to reading Garrett’s books this year and I’m working through her backlist. I couldn’t decide which to include, but this was re-released in 2018 so it goes on my list! Heartbreaking and amazing.

 

My Fair Captain by J.L. Langley

I’d list the whole series if I had room! Also a re-release, I read the first few several years ago and I’m happily reading the books as they come back out. With new ones on the way! Sci-fi meets historical works so well!

The Little Library by Kim Fielding

I read it when it came out and loved it, and I’m listening the audio version now, and remembering why I loved it. Gentle and sweet, with a little drama.
