HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ: A SNOWY BALL RELEASE DAY REVIEW!!


HEY GUYS, I AM SO EXITED FOR THIS NEXT HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ POST! BELOW IS MY RELEASE DAY REVIEW OF A SNOWY BALL, WHEN SKIES HAVE FALLEN 1.5 BY DEBBIE McGOWAN!! YAY! HOW EXCITING THAT WE GET TO CATCH UP WITH ARTY AND JIM! 



THIS IS THE PERFECT QUOTE FOR THIS STORY, AND BOY IS IT TRUE! BELOW IS MY REVIEW: 


A Snowy Ball
When Skies Have Fallen 1.5
by: Debbie Mcgowan
reviewed by: Becky

Published: 19th December, 2017
Length: 14,000 words (63 pages) approx.

London: December, 1981. A White Christmas is on the cards, but as the temperature drops, the pressure on Arty mounts. He's got far too much planned in the coming days to have it all buried under a mountain of snow.

Between his retirement surprise for Jim and the Christmas party at the dance school, Arty might need to curtail his daydreaming a little to ensure everything comes together. Still, if all else fails, at least he and Jim have each other to keep them warm through the impending blizzard.

Note: this story follows on from When Skies Have Fallen and as such contains spoilers for anyone who has not read the novel.




I am over the moon to be able to catch up with Arty and Jim and all of their loved ones, a Holiday book about these two was a total surprise and oh so amazing! 

Arty and Jim have grown older and settled into their lives together, when the story starts they are about to celebrate Jim's retirement, and another surprise Arty has up his sleeve! 

We follow these two as they celebrate the season and their love for each other, and this is a Holiday read that you don't want to miss if you have read the LAMMY award winning When Skies Have Fallen! 


                                             the 5 cat on a stove rating :P

THIS RATING IS RELEVANT, TRUST ME! :p I REALLY HOPE YOU PICK UP THIS BOOK FROM THE LINK BELOW! I WILL POST THE LINK TO WHEN SKIES HAVE FALLEN ALSO, ( THAT ONE IS FREE!)

HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ: JESS REVIEWS RED POPCORN STRINGS AND GUMBALL RINGS


WOO HOO FRIENDS, I AM SO EXCITED TO BRING YOU GUYS JESS KENNEDY'S REVIEW OF RED POPCORN STRINGS AND GUMBALL RINGS BY NELL IRIS! THIS SWEET LITTLE STORY IS PART OF THE DREAMSPINNER ADVENT CALENDAR: STOCKING STUFFERS AND YOU WILL LOVE IT! 



I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS QUOTE IT IS NOW ONE OF MY FAVES! HERE IS JESS'S REVIEW:


Red Popcorn Strings & Gumball Rings
by Nell Iris
Dreamspinner Advent Calendar: Stocking Stuffers
reviewed by: Jess Kennedy

Christmas is coming, and young couple Casey and Ellis are very much in love. Unfortunately, they’re also the definition of dirt poor, and they don’t have the money for nonessentials like decorations. Or a turkey. Or gifts. Between the recent death of Casey’s beloved momma and Ellis’s estrangement from his family, all they have is each other.
When Ellis finds the saddest-looking Christmas tree south of the Mason-Dixon Line thrown away outside his workplace and brings it home to Casey, things look up. Life is still a struggle, but wealth isn’t always measured in money, and what seems worthless to others is often invaluable to the people who love it.


Ellis and Casey are spending their first Christmas together without Casey's mom. Money is tight, but there is plenty of love between the two. 
With the days until Christmas winding down, these two lovers get many sweet and much needed holiday surprises.
 This was a short, but completely sexy and sweet holiday read I would definitely recommend to others.

                                            the 5 gumball ring rating :P

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH JESS, I LOVE THIS SWEET LITTLE STORY , AND I LOVE LOVE LOVE HER REVIEW! GRAB THIS STORY BELOW!

SUCCUMBING TO HIS FEAR REVIEW!


HEY GUYS! TODAY I AM HERE WITH MY REVIEW OF SUCCUMBING TO HIS FEAR: THE LIVING ART SERIES BOOK 1 BY RIVER MITCHELL! I FREAKING LOVE THIS SERIES AND I CAN'T WAIT TO BRING YOU MY REVIEWS OF ALL THREE BOOK IN THIS SERIES SO FAR! LET'S TAKE A LOOK: 



OH BOY DOES THIS QUOTE APPLIES TO BOTH FEAR AND ALFIE! HERE IS MY REVIEW: 

Succumbing To His Fear
The Living Art Series #1
by: River Mitchell
reviewed by: Becky

A life-changing event leaves Alfie the guardian to two children; it also becomes the catalyst that leads him to discover that everything he thought he knows about himself is catastrophically wrong.

All it took was a chance meeting and a drunken night to turn his world upside down. 

Fear wasn’t looking for anyone, content to stick with his monotonous routine of one-night stands and random hook-ups. He purposely keeps everyone but his family at arm’s length, never wanting an outsider to get to close. But when Alfie and his adopted children come crashing into his life, all Fear’s rules are quickly forgotten. 

While the two men struggle with all aspects of their life and budding relationship, the arrival of an unknown element determined to destroy them and their newfound happiness throws everything in to turmoil. 

Will they survive the whirlwind of devastation or will they crumble under the weight left in its wake?




It is really rare that I have a book speak to me on as many levels as this one did, and man did I enjoy every second of it! 

Alfie has had his life turned upside down and his head is still spinning when he runs into a group of guys that have a tattoo parlor, one of them really turns him on, but that will never happen right? 

Fear can't get Alfie out of his head and all he wants to do is help him, (well maybe not ALL he wants to do :P) but will Alfie let him? What happens when their world is flipped upside down? Will the feelings these two have for each other be enough to weather the storm? 

The supporting cast in these books are amazing and you will laugh at Alfie and his mom so many times you will lose count! Grab this book right now, and get started on a journey you won't want to end! 


                                              the 5 nugget rating :P

HAHA! I DID THIS RATING IN HONOR OF TWO LITTLE PEOPLE YOU WILL LOVE INSTANTLY JUST LIKE I DID! GRAB SUCCUMBING TO HIS FEAR BELOW AND SEE WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

GRACE REVIEWS O HELL ALL YE SHOPPERS!


HEY FRIENDS! DAY 10 OF OUR HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ IS ALL ABOUT GRACE AND HER REVIEW OF O HELL ALL YE SHOPPERS BY LOUISA MASTERS! THIS IS A SHORT FROM THE DREAMSPINNER 2017 ADVENT CALENDAR: STOCKING STUFFERS! LET'S TAKE A LOOK: 



BOY ISN'T THIS QUOTE THE TRUTH! HERE IS GRACE'S REVIEW!


O Hell All Ye Shoppers
by: Louisa Masters
Dreamspinner Stocking Stuffers Advent Calendar
reviewed by: Grace

Ethan Hall plans to fill Saturday, December 23, with junk food and bad TV, a day just for him amid the holiday chaos… until his baby sister calls and begs him to go collect a present for her. At the biggest shopping center in Australia. On the busiest shopping day of the year. Hell no. Right?
Ethan’s soft heart gets the best of him. He battles through the parking lot, and in the main shopping concourse, he’s trampled, elbowed, and bombarded with terrible holiday music. Then he enters hell itself, a specialty store aimed at women… where he meets Ty. They bond in a sea of estrogen and manic shoppers, fighting together to attain freedom, only to find they’re not quite ready go their separate ways.


This is a very sweet story of the 'meet cute' of Ethan and Ty.  Brought together unknowingly by their sister and Mom, they meet on Christmas Eve Eve at the mall of all places.  After hours at the bar and pizza, bad movies and some make out time, what's next?  With it Christmas Eve and Day, how can they work around their already crazy schedule to see each other again?  Why, it's a meet the folks on Christmas, of course! 

Even with it being a short novella, this book made me fall for Ethan and Ty.  They are both sweet and very loveable and I hope we get to see more of them in the future.  Hint hint Louisa!!


It's a 4 Last Minute Crazy Christmas Shopper Rating!

HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ DAY 9: AMY'S REVIEW OF HOLESHOT CHRISTMAS!!


HEY GUYS, IT IS DAY 9 OF OUR HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ, AND TODAY AMY IS BRINGING US HER RELEASE DAY REVIEW OF HOLESHOT CHRISTMAS BY LYNN MICHAELS! LET'S TAKE A LOOK! 


THIS QUOTE IS SO TRUE! HERE IS AMY'S REVIEW! 


Holeshot Christmas
by: Lynn Michaels
reviewed by: Amy

Christmas isn’t all race tracks and dirt bikes for Davey and Tyler, especially when they don’t see things about each other in quite the same way.



I am so happy to have read this book!  I love Davey and Tyler, so I was stoked to see a holiday book this year!!!  

Davey and Tyler are now married and getting ready to celebrate Christmas together.  But first they are away to scout new talent for their race team.   Insecurities and jealousy crash into this happy couple even when they both know how much love is between them. 

Through the holidays we see Davey and Tyler struggle with the thought of not being good enough, each for different reasons.  They really need to talk and work on communication to get through this rough patch. 

Make sure you grab this one December 1st for a fun with moments of sexy and serious talks for this holiday season!! 


 I give this book 5 stars or more festive 5 Superman Jammies!  You’ll see why when you read A Holeshot Christmas!!  

HAHA I LOVE THIS RATING! IF YOU ARE A FAN OF THIS SERIES LIKE AMY AND I ARE, THEN YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK! GRAB IT BELOW 


THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR DAY 9, AND THANKS AMY, FOR THE TERRIFIC REVIEW! SEE YOU TOMORROW FOR DAY 10!



HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ DAY 8: AMY REVIEWS NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS!


HEY FRIENDS, IT'S DAY 8 OF OUR HOLIDAY BOOK REVIEW BLITZ AND TODAY IT'S AMY'S TURN, SHE IS REVIEWING NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS BY ANNABELLE JACOBS SO LET'S TAKE A LOOK! 



THIS QUOTE IS SO TRUE! HERE IS AMY'S REVIEW: 

Not Just For Christmas
by: Annabelle Jacobs
reviewed by: Amy


Ben has Christmas, cats, and mistletoe on his side…. Jason doesn’t stand a chance 

For Ben Slater, moving back to Bristol means being closer to his family, living with his best mate, and volunteering at the local animal shelter. But there’s also Jason, his best mate’s eldest brother. Ben’s had a crush on Jason for as long as he can remember, but the eleven-year age gap has always seemed insurmountable. 

Jason Armitage works as a vet at his uncle’s practice. He owns a cute cottage on the outskirts of the city, and a loving dog. The one thing missing is someone to share it all with. His brother’s best friend seems a bad choice, but Jason can’t help taking a second look. Ben’s changed a lot since Jason last saw him; both in appearance and attitude. Gone is the shy young boy, replaced with a confident, twenty-four-year-old man. 

In the run up to Christmas, the festive period gives Ben the ideal opportunity to show Jason what he has to offer. But concerns for his brother’s feelings hold Jason back. If they have any chance of making this work, Ben must convince Jason that he’s old enough to know what he wants, and Jason needs to believe that a relationship with his brother’s best friend won’t ruin their friendship.



This is a wonderful holiday story!!  I could not put it down!!  Ben has been best friends with Liam for years, they are like brothers.   It’s Liam’s much older brother Jason, that Ben has crushed on forever but thinking it would never happen. 

Ben moves back to town and has time off before he starts his new job, time to volunteer at the animal shelter.  Jason is a vet, and taking care of animals is what he loves to do.   When Ben and Liam bring in a kitten that has been hit by a car, things start to change for Jason and Ben.   Maybe being older isn’t a big deal.  What will Liam think of his best friend and brother dating?   Christmas is the time for special magic to happen and a little mistletoe might help too!! 



This book is definite 5 stars or 5 black kittens with white paws!!!   It has all the makings of a sweet holiday love story, funny and Christmasy!!  Definitely grab this one for a night by the tree! 

HAHA GREAT REVIEW AMY, AND I LOVE THIS RATING! GRAB THE BOOK BELOW GUYS, YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO READ IT NOW! 


THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR DAY 8, SEE YOU TOMORROW FOR DAY 9!

Secrets can get you killed.
Trust nobody!

When his eight-year-old nephew disappears, he never expects the boy’s savior to end up being his own.
A man with a dangerous past and a man with a dangerous future find love amidst murder and mayhem. But with Snow's life being threatened at every turn, will Christopher's best be enough to prevent Snow Falling?


MY REVIEW:

BOY DOES THIS QUOTE APPLY TO THIS STORY: HERE IS MY REVIEW: 


Oh the feels in this book!I knew I would love Snow when we first meet him, but believe me, that love and admiration grows over the course of the story! 

Snow helps out a little boy, even though it means making a pact to do something he loathes to have to do. He saves that little boy, but who will save Snow? 

Christopher is a known and feared crime boss, he is afraid of nothing, until his nephew is lost. When he gets him back, he also gets something he never expected. Snow comes tied to a world of dark secrets, when they get unearthed can these men handle it? 

I am so in love with this story, but I can't tell you more and spoil it, all I will say is this book will give you feels for days, and you will love every second of it! 

             the 5 Iron Man and Captain America rating :)

YES I DID THIS RATING FOR A REASON, AND BOY IS IT CUTE! GRAB THE BOOK NOW AND FIND OUT WHAT IT IS! 



Snow Falling Teaser 1

EXCERPT
I should have known I wouldn’t get far. Frank grabbed my arm. “He’s not my kid. His pop will very much want to speak with you. Something tells me if you walk out that door, you’ll disappear, and I don’t have time to go lookin’ for you. So, I think you’ll come with us for now.” His firm tone made it clear it wasn’t a question.

When I looked around the police station, I was shocked that no cops were interfering in what was clearly a kidnapping. I shouldn’t have been too surprised. After all, in my book, police didn’t have a very good track record for doing what was right.

“Stranger danger!” I yelled, which just made Simon laugh.

“No, Snow, we aren’t strangers anymore. You come home and my pop will protect you. That’s what he does.”

Who the hell was his pop? Surviving was a lot about picking your battles. Looking around the precinct, it was obvious my choices weren’t going to win out. Frank and his goons weren’t going to let me pass. On the off chance I got away, then I’d have Roy and these guys chasing me.

“I don’t think I have a choice, do I?” Frank shook his head. “Okay then. Onward, my good man!”

If the limo wasn’t a huge giveaway that Simon’s pop was disgustingly rich, the enormous mansion with the iron gate was. Two large Ms were worked into the iron. The house had a medieval look about it. A fountain of fear was on display in the middle of the circular driveway, some sort of gargoyles spitting water out of their mouths… or was it their eyes? Gray stone, iron, and darkness made up this house. Whoever this guy was, he wasn’t just rich, he was powerful. Leaning over, I whispered in Simon’s ear, “Is your pop Tony Stark?”

Simon chuckled. “No silly, he’s Christopher Manos.”

Christopher Manos? Oh, son of a bitch. At least Iron Man was on the right side of justice.

“Come on, Snow, you can meet my pop!” Simon grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the limo with all his might. When we came to the stone steps and I looked up, I came face to face with not only the most dangerous man in this city, but the most gorgeous. He was broad, and I could see the muscles in his arms and legs even through his expensive suit. He had midnight black hair and obsidian eyes. There was no doubt he and Simon were related.

“Pop!” Simon ran into his arms. The man didn’t miss a beat. He scooped Simon up without ever taking his eyes off me. “That’s Snow. He saved me.”

“Mr. Manos, it’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ll have you know, I didn’t want to come here. I was forced. You have a beautiful home and a great kid and if you just let me go, I’ll happily walk home.”

He stared at me coldly. “You don’t know my home is beautiful, you haven’t seen it. Let’s rectify that. Come in.” He turned and walked inside. The nudge from Frank was likely the only encouragement I’d get.

I hope I don’t die.

I REALLY CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU GUYS TO READ THIS STORY! LET'S LEARN A BIT ABOUT THE AUTHOR!
