Jesse’s only priority in life is protecting the people he loves, so he’s determined to see Rowan Harbor’s wards rebuilt. There’s just one problem: they’re missing an ingredient that can’t be ordered online.

Jesse volunteers to search for the missing component in the realm of the fae, but his boyfriend, Sean, isn’t letting him go alone. The town has an enemy among the fae, so they’ll need to keep a low profile. Along their way, they find unexpected allies, surprising enemies, and a whole host of problems.

The journey is a test of their endurance, but also of their relationship and their faith in each other. Can they find what they need and get back home in one piece in time for the summer solstice?


Sam wrote her first fantasy epic with her best friend when she was ten. Like almost any epic fiction written by a ten year old, it was awful. She likes to think she’s improved since then, if only because she has better handwriting now.

If she’s not writing, she’s almost certainly either reading or lost down a Wikipedia rabbit hole while pretending to research for a novel.

Random Review: Hole-Hearted by Sam Burns #Review #Giveaway




Title: Hole-Hearted
Author: Sam Burns
Publisher: Dreamspinner Press
Publication Date: December 1, 2019
Length: 20 pages

Reviewed by Michael


Synopsis

Pediatrician Luce Wright’s bad breakup gets worse when his drunk ex drives a car through his house a week before Christmas. His whole family is coming over in just a few days, and he can’t have a hole with a tarp over it in the middle of his dining room.

Fortunately his neighbor’s son is moving back into town, and he owns a construction company. Can Luce and his homemade cookies persuade Darren to mend the hole in the house… and maybe the one in Luce’s heart too?









Review

Drunk exes are the absolute worst!! Like, I get being upset about a failed relationship, but to drive through someone’s house?  Really?

And just before Christmas?  That is absolutely the worst!

To add to an already stressful situation, Luce (the owner of the new drive-through) is having his family over for a Christmas dinner.  His first ever, so of course he wants to impress his family.  But how can he with a giant hole in his house?

Well, as luck would have it, his neighbor’s son, Darren, happens to be a handyman and a cute one at that, who agrees to help Luce put his house back together.  Just in time for the dinner.

But of course, the negotiations have to be sealed with a kiss.  Like, right away. 


Lots of stuff happens in this story at the pace of a speeding car, which I guess is kind of appropriate given what’s happened to Luce’s house.  But it kind of left me wondering where the build up was, how Luce and Darren get to know each other and…well…date.  While Darren is rebuilding a section of the house.  In a week.  It left me hoping they slowed things down, by a lot.  Because sometimes the faster you go, the more likely you are to crash and burn. Especially when you consider what Luce’s mother wants to give them for Christmas the following year!

Review Tour: Wolf Lost by Sam Burns #Review #Giveaway



Buy Links: Amazon US | Amazon UK | Universal Link - Exclusive to Amazon and Available to Borrow With Kindle Unlimited

Length: 50,000 words approx.

Cover Design: Natasha Snow

Blurb

An omega on the run.

An alpha fractured.

Sawyer Holt can’t go home. The Alpha who has replaced his father wants to use him as a tool to cement his political power, and Sawyer isn’t interested in marrying his father’s murderer.

Dez Sullivan’s leg may never heal from his last mission in Afghanistan, but he’s getting used to that. What he can’t adapt to are the nightmares and the tremor in his hand that the doctors insist is all in his head. Next to that, being a brand new werewolf seems easy, until Sawyer Holt blows into his life. The omega activates his burgeoning wolf instincts in a new way, and they threaten to overwhelm his common sense.

Both men are in Colorado searching for a new start, a new pack, and the safety they’ve lost. Their meeting is pure Kismet.


Review

Ash, Gavin, and Dez are a pack. Two bitten werewolves and one origin. An unusual pack because all three are Alphas. But they are friends and military mates forever. Now the three of them are settled down in Kismet, Colorado and try to start a coffee shop.
When Sawyer enters their space
distressed and anxious, they take him in. Still, a very unusual pack because Sawyer is an Omega.

Sawyer is on the run, his father
who was Alpha of their pack was killed and the new Alpha wants to marry Sawyer. A conservative pack where Omegas don’t have a will of their own. Sawyer can’t live like that, so he ran. This vicious Alpha wants Sawyer back at all costs.

Sawyer was driven to this new pack by a delicious strong scent. Who called for him?
As a new shifter, Dez knows very little about mates and heat. But Sawyer’s scent speaks to him. Both Dez and Sawyer feel strongly attracted to each other. Dez has an inability, and this holds him back, luckily Sawyer is more forwarded.
Sawyer’s old pack is lurking, and it’s a real threat.

-“If this isn’t every omega’s dream, I don’t know what is,” Sawyer said, his voice breathy and higher than usual.-

I’m a lover of wolfpack, shifters, scents, Alpha and Omega’s stories. This one was lovely, kind, and original. I was so charmed by these wolves and their dynamic. Besides that, it was a witty and fun read, I laughed loudly in a room full of people, that’s something special I can say.

It was also endearing, sweet... chocolate sweet, just like someone’s scent.
Seeing grumpy Dez being playful is something to watch! To see Sawyer, as a sexy seducer purr sang, play Dez was just delicious to view.

A very animated story, it had an engaging way of storytelling. Every move, every gesture, every thought, and every sexy step was worth reading. It had all the feelings and was all nicely balanced.

So much fun with these four guys, they were delightful. Oh, let’s not forget Desi, who has an indelible and important place in this story LOL.

A recommendation worth!
