https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3074

“I loved Bloodbloom by Kate Hill. It’s the second book in the Confessions series! I loved Cupid and Lance’s book. I loved the chemistry between them and their hot scenes. I also liked watching the friendship build between Cupid and Erik.”

BRICK (IRON TZARS MC 3) by Marteeka Karland
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3479

“Be still my beating heart! Brick was more than I expected him to be and then some. His patience with Serelda and his kindness mixed with the gruffness made my heart pitter patter. Her insecurities were just that… hers! Brick proved that his love was unconditional. Serelda was perfect in his eyes and that is all that mattered. This a beautiful journey of growth, acceptance, moving forward and finding happiness amongst all the chaos. I absolutely adored Brick and Seralda. Phenomenal story! Cannot wait to see what comes next. Marteeka never ceases to amaze me.”

A HALLOWEEN TALE by Stephanie Burke
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-1928

“What can I say? I was thrilled with Ms. Burke’s creativity here… There are so many things I wish I could say about the plot twist, but it’s one of those things that works best if new readers have no idea what to expect. She couldn’t have done a better job of tying up all of her loose ends, and she did so in less than 20 pages which makes it even more admirable.”

— 5 Stars from Astilbe, Long and Short Reviews

HENRY (DEVOTED GUARDIANS MC 2) by Harley Wylde & Jessica Coulter Smith
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3462

“Oh goodness! Can this series get any better? Knowing Harley Wylde, yes it can, but I absolutely loved Henry and Raya’s story. I love the fated mates’ part of this series. I loved the visits from some of the other MC members that came throughout the story and look forward to more surprises in future books.”

— 5 Stars from Dawn, Amazon Review

“I’m loving this paranormal MC series from Harley! This was a lovely mix of the paranormal and MC romance. Henry and Raya are a perfect match and he is so sweet to the kids. Their future is so bright and made my heart happy. Raya’s past was a lovely surprise, so clever. Cannot wait for the next story in this series!”

— 5 Stars from Leslee Nevill, Amazon Review

“Remarkably spellbinding and exquisitely captivating journey to go on with Henry and Raya. Raya and her kids went through so much then in walks Henry who changes everything for them. Sometimes you have to go through the worst to get to the best. I couldn’t get enough of this story.”

— 5 Stars from A. Fernandez, Amazon Review

“I absolutely loved Henry and Raya’s story. Story was really well written and kept me guessing what would happen next! Loved it!”

— 5 Stars from MLS, Amazon Review

“I loved this book! It was a fascinating, fast read.”

— 5 Stars from Mouse, Amazon Review

“This book was amazing. When Henry first found Raya and her kids he wasn’t exactly happy. But the short time after he was with her he felt the fated mate pull. The way Raya’s kids were loveable. I love the story and how even though Raya loved him right away but Logan was stand-offish. It was so relatable. I hope to catch up with them in the future. Can’t wait to see what happens.”

— 5 Stars from Gretchen Calder, Amazon Review

“I absolutely love this series! Henry and Raya has become one of my favorite couples in all the MC books! And I gotta say the surprise guests shocked me! And I can’t wait to see if they show up more! Harley Wylde knocked this one way out of the park and I can’t wait for the next one!”

“Henry and Raya’s story will captivate and inspire you while cheering them on to finding happiness.”

— 5 Stars from Merry Jelks-Emmanuel, Amazon Review

— 5 Stars from Holly, Amazon Review

“I loved this book. Great world building and wonderful characters. The storyline captivated me from the start and I couldn’t put it down.”

— 5 Stars from Ashley, Amazon Review

“Once again, this author proves that she is a pro at writing relationship-focused romances. The pacing is gentle, like the ebb and flow of waves at the shore, and lulled me into a calmness while reading. I loved the descriptions of Ethan photographing and how his artist’s eye and mind worked because I know all that myself. Definitely recommended to those who enjoy vampire tales, photography, or who enjoyed Moonlight Cherries.”

— 4 Stars from Merit, Kobo Review

— 5 Stars from Emily Pennington, Kobo Review

“I loved this book. Great world building and wonderful characters. The storyline captivated me from the start and I couldn’t put it down. I was sad when I finished reading it because I would love to see more of Auris and Ethan (please write a sequel!!).”

MANTICORE (CONFESSIONS 3) by Kate Hill
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3447

“I loved Manticore by Kate Hill. It’s the third book in the Confessions series. I loved Manticore, Medusa, Martin, and Daisy Fay’s story. Manticore has a wide variety of hot scenes with two MF, one MMF, and one FF. I loved seeing more of Lance and Cupid from book two, Bloodbloom. I hope the author writes more books for this series.”

THE NIGHT BARTENDER (FAIRVIEW CHRONICLES 9) by Alexa Piper
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3277

“The Night Bartender is a mix of steamy romance and intense mystery. The characters Aaron and Ilya have instant attraction even if they aren’t sure they’re on the same page at first. Seeing these two bend for each other was beautiful. There was so much snarky banter that it kept me laughing.”

https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3466

“This story will take you on a journey that will break you apart and then put you back together in a way that you don’t expect. It was powerful, strong, meaningful and heartfelt. Roman treated Winter with care, patience and kindness but added in with a little touch of his gruff side. I absolutely captivated by these two. It was definitely a emotional pager turner that had me on the edge of my seat and leaving me with a smile on my face. I loved everything about this book.”
