Good Girl by Sam Hall

 

2 stars

Cyn has been raised in a society where certain women need to be taken care of by their men. Omega’s must attend soirees to find their alphas. When they are not attending them, they are training to be stronger. Cyn hates all of this. She wants to live her best life and not be ruled by anyone. When she meets a group of men will she find a way to live her best life?

I wanted to like this book but didn’t. Cyn was used and abused by those who are supposed to take care of her, and they never really make it up. I also felt there needed to be more background. I ended up skimming to see if it got better and got to the end and it never got better. I’ll skip anything else.

Demon's Path by Domino Savage

 

4 Star

Cleo and her group must travel through the realms to one final battle to prove she's chosen. There are many obstacles in their way, and they will need to work through. To help Cleo grow and become all powerful Sam will do anything even if it kills him. Will they be able to get through the next challenge?

I enjoyed this one a lot. There is a lot of movement on the guest. One thing that got old was the are

they together or aren't they with Cleo and Sam. He doesn't want her with someone else but keeps

pushing her to screw others then getting mad about it. The book ends with more to come but the main plots ending nicely.

Book 2 Rise of the Morningstar

Summerland Complete Collection by Kathryn Moon

 

3 stars

Lucy had been excited about her honeymoon until her fiancé left her at the altar. She didn’t want to give up her trip, so she goes by herself. She ends up in a strange town with strange people who she likes. Lucy begins to fall for different men in town and she’s not sure it’s ok. When she finds out the town’s secret will she stay?

This was an interesting take on gods and mortals. Biggest issue was no world building and it ends with so many questions. Moon said she’s going to do more but none so far. Lucy getting a new guy every time she turned around got old. All in between each of the shorts it was a good story but needed some work.

The Heiress and the Orc by Finley Fenn

 

2.5 star

Ella thought she was marrying a good man but instead he steals all her money and ignores her

When she's had enough, she plans to embarrass him any way she can. She decides to have an

orc baby. She agrees with the orcs deal and sets her plan in motion. What happens when she falls for her orc, and she doesn't want to leave?

This is just like book 1 and 2. They know who she is and why she's there and are using her for their own end. I did like the ending and how Ella's husband got what was coming to him. I'll try the next but if

it's like this one I am going to pass

Book 2 Orc Sworn

Amazon

Untamed Delights by Suzanne Wright

 

3 Star

Mila knew who her mate was but would never have him. When she meets Dominic, she’s attracted to him and wants him. He's a major playboy per his reputation and she's not interested. He wears her down and they start forming a bond when her life is put in danger. Will they figure out who is behind the threat before it's too late?

I wanted to like this more than I did. It was the first in this series for not true mates to get together Mila knows and interacts with her true mate, but they don't have the mating urge oft talked about. It was confusing why this was pushed in all other books but was ignored in this book. Suzann Wright does do a nice wrap up at the end. Overall, I enjoyed the series.

Caged by Her Dragons by Ginna Moran

 

2 Star

Nova is thrust into a world she didn’t know existed and thrown into magical prison for a crime she didn’t commit. Now she is left to navigate a world she doesn’t know or understand and feeling incredibly angry that she’s in prison. Will she find a way out and an understanding of this new world?

I liked the other series, so I wanted to give this one a chance but this one angered me so much. She repeatedly told them the truth and they refused to believe her. They threw her in prison with a bunch of supernaturals she knows nothing about nor how to protect herself from them. She’s thrown in with no way out and her not knowing anything about supernatural beings and her jailers decide to sex her up. It just rubbed me the wrong way and made the book less enjoyable for me. Was the writing there, yes. Will I eventually read the next one, yes? Just kind of disappointed with this one.

The Demon's Pet by Domino Savage

 

4 Star

Cloe has lived a very sheltered life in her shapeshifter community. She hates the roles the community expect of her. When she goes against the expectation the community leaders call in an angel to cast judgement. Instead of killing her like they expected the angel offers her a chance to visit the other realms as his pet. She agrees without knowing what is out there but she figures it has to be better then what she's lived with. In their journey through the other realms trouble arises will she survive?

I enjoyed this book. It has some really good world building. It is an interesting take on the different paranormal entities. We have vampires, shifters, angels, and demons. They all of their own realms and only certain groups can cross. The story was a bit slow to get started and Cloe was TSTL at times but it all worked out well and I enjoyed it. It didn't end on a cliffhanger but it does lead into the next book and it will be interesting to see where it all goes.
