Book Review Reclaim

 Reclaim (Recovered Innocence, #3)
Title: Reclaim

Author: Beth Yarnall


Stars: 2 1/2


Review:
This story had such potential and I was so excited but as soon as the story started it fell flat. The romance between the two leads (Nolan and Lila) lack any type of chemistry but if you are looking for hot sex scene writing this is your book.
I felt Nolan lacked the depth to deal with Lila past.
Reclaim falls flat.

Synopsis:
Nolan: Nothing’s ever come easy for me, especially not my dream job at Nash Security and Investigations. Righting wrongs is what I’m meant to do . . . except I manage to blow the very first chance I get. So why don’t they fire me on the spot? Hell, I’d fire myself if I could. Instead, my boss hands me an assignment that’s too important to screw up—and partners me with Lila Garcia, a gorgeous attorney with curves so distracting they should be illegal.

Lila: Like my client, a grieving mother charged with the murder of her own son, I know how quickly the American dream can become a nightmare. If anybody can help me clear her name, it’s Nash Security and Investigations. But Nolan Perry is a wild card. Bending the truth, breaking the law—that’s his business. I need to focus on the evidence. Not on how Nolan’s body fits so perfectly against mine. With a case this personal—and this dangerous—losing control is simply not an option . . . no matter how badly I want to give in.

Book Review: No Strings Attached

 No Strings Attached by Julie Moffett
Title: No Strings Attached


Author: Julie Moffett


Stars: 5 out of 5


Review:
I have read so far all the Lexi Carmichael series while some I liked and others I loved this series singing to my little geeky heart. Lexi is awkward, smart, loyal, kind and has friends she would do anything for.
The author Julie Moffett created a series that touches the heart of everyone person who has felt out of place. Each book brings readers into a world where a women can be smart, intelligent, loyal without demeaning her personal beliefs.
If you loved the first 7 in this series you will love No Strings Attached. The characters and stories evolve forcing on a future for all the characters that readers will love.

AC from Netgalley for my honest review.

Synopsis:
Oops, I did it again…

Leave it to me, Lexi Carmichael, to become a target for an elite organization of cyber criminals simply by being in the wrong place at the right time. As if I weren't already freaking out about planning my best friend's bachelorette party, I now have to keep my eyes peeled for people trying to kill me.

After accidentally intercepting a dangerous hack into the NSA and discovering the involvement of a foreign country in said hack, things begin to get seriously complicated. Diplomats, danger and spies, oh, my!

With Slash and my loyal friends by my side, I'm in a race against time to stop a team of sophisticated hackers on a deadly mission. My team of geeks is brilliant…but derailing an international plot for revenge will take everything we've got.

Title: The Earl's Regret


Author: G.L. Snodgrass


Stars: 4 out of 5

Review:
The author has written a romance story that will tug the heart strings of the most hardened among us. The heroine is most delightful. But is was the hero who truly lives up to the title of hero. It is a love story that begins as a friendship and grows into love unfeigned. There are many obstacles in their path but the hero is unrelenting and overcomes each of them.
I have giving this book a four star rating and would recommend it to anyone who like an excellent historical romance.
I obtained this book from Amazon in Kindle format.

Book Review To Save A Sinner

 To Save a Sinner
Title: To Save A Sinner

Author: Adele Clee

Stars: 4 out of 5

Review:
A very good historical romance with a strong willed and outspoken heroine.  Although she does not necessarily see herself as a great beauty she immediately makes a big impression on the hero who has returned after being banished to Boston. The book had both a strong and good storyline. The author is able to take you through the intimate scenes without being explicit and allowing the reader to use their own imagination. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read historical romance novels and look forward to reading the author's next offering.
I gave this a four star rating.
I obtained the book from Amazon in Kindle format.


Synopsis:
 He expected to be the topic of scandalous gossip. He did not expect an intriguing young lady to barge into his home with the intention of saving his wicked soul. Banished to Boston for causing the death of Lord Banbury, Lucas Dempsey vowed never to set foot on English soil again. But when his brother inherits the viscountcy and pleads for his return, the opportunity to show his contempt and loathing for the Society who turned its back on him proves to be far too enticing to resist. When the dishonourable Lucas Dempsey steps into the ballroom after a four-year absence, Helena Ecclestone is quick to label the gentleman a murderous rogue. That is until she stumbles upon a secret conversation and feels a moral obligation to see justice done. But while the ladies swoon over his handsome countenance, Helena is determined to look beyond such superficial features, intrigued to discover the true character of the gentleman he hides beneath his arrogant facade."
