My Review Thank you @zooloosBt for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Mercliess Waters is a very different book to what I normally read. This is a short read and is an erotic horror fiction. The story is about Jaq and Lily, and they are aboard a ship called the Scylla. There is no future or past on this ship and it's full of women and then a Man comes on and things start to change. This is a fast-paced read that you will not be able to put down. There are lots of twist and turns, that has a bit of horror, love, and sex entwine through the book. I feel you go on an adventure with Jaq and Lilly, and I was rooting for them. I like the story, it's a quirky read. Merciless Waters is a quick, sharp read that will leave you thinking about it hours after 4 stars. Rae’s Bio Rae Knowles (she/her) is a queer woman whose debut novel, The Stradivarius, released May 2023 and hit #1 in Amazon’s LGBTQ+ Horror and Thriller categories. Her collaboration with April

Thank you @litpr for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Exodal is a non-fiction about Elizabeth Life, being a lesbian and talks about S&M relationships. Wow, this book took me a day to read. I loved how open she is about her sexual relationships and S&M. I feel Elizabeth opens you up to this world, and it really opens my eyes to it. If you are reading this there is trigger warning due to abuse, torture and Slave relationship. I really felt for Elizabeth with everything she went through, and I hope she has finally found love. Elizabeth writing style is gripping and will hold your attention to the end. I found ExodaI an extraordinary read that made me gasp at times but also blew me away.ExodaI is an intense read and can be shocking due to what she goes through, but it is defiantly amazing read and the ending is very powerful. I don't read many Memior, but I am glad I read this. Brilliant 5 stars Blurb Elizabeth’s drives and desires have always been u

Thank you @KJBlack71 @bloodhoundbook @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter #FreeReview #FreeBookReview for letting me be part of this book tour and reviewing this book. A Most Malicious Messenger is a crime genre and this is book 2 in the series. You can read it as a standalone, as I did. I love the front cover with the cute dachshunds, they are my daughter favourite breed. I found this story to be quirky and a feel good read that you can sit on the sofa in the dark evening and I enjoy following the characters figuring out done the murders. There were places in the book that made me smile, and the characters are likeable. The main characters are Fletch and May, and there seems to be some disturbing texts that the residents of Blackheath keep receiving, and things start to happen. A Most Malicious Messenger is an entertaining read, and I will look at reading book 1. If you like crime and humour, this book is for you, 4 stars. Blurb Menacing texts lead to murder in

My Review Thank you @rararesources for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Eye spy is a young children's genre for 9 to 12 years old. The story is about two twins Donna and Alex who hear a lady has lost her dog on the pier and will reward anyone who finds it. Donna and Alex set up detective business and try to found the dog, but they also found out something about their family on the way, that they didn't know. The story is engaging, and I do think children will enjoy reading this story. Eye Spy is at a good pace and is full of action that will keep you hooked to the book. The plot in the story works well and Alex and Donna are very likeable characters and look forward to book 2 to see what they investigate next. There are some good twists and turns that I didn't see coming and was quite shocked with them because I would never of guessed. A good story that children will love 4 stars. Eye Spy Over the course of ten days, the lives of thirteen-year-o

Thank you @rararesources for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. All Grown up has some hard topics that run through the book: rape, underage sex, parents not looking after their children probably, but Catherine Evens tackles them straight on and really well. The story is engaging from the start and I could not put it down, it took me a day to read this book. All grown up has many narratives, and they are all from the point of view of Neveah, Giles and Christine are the main narratives and then there are other characters whose point of view is not as much as the main three charcters like Billy, Stickman, Cha cha and many more. I liked how Catherine Evans did this, and I did not get mixed up or lost with all these characters, to me, it worked well. This was a hard to read at times because of the topics, but it is a compelling read that gripped me to the end. All Grown up is beautifully written and is a defiantly a page turner. The story about Neveah who is 15 years

My Review Thank you @hayleypricebook @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter #LGBT #IndieAuthor #TheVermilionRibbonfor letting me review this book and be part of this tour. The Vermilion Ribbon is an adventure genre and I have never read anything from Hayley Price , and I am glad I did. The Vermilion Ribbon is very different to what I normally read, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I read it in two days. I liked the characters Corelle, Deineike and Arella a lot, they were very brave, and I enjoyed following their story. While reading this book, I was on the edge of my seat because I didn't know what was going to happen to Corella. I found her to be brave, and I did feel sorry for her because she had to do things she didn't really want to but did them for love. I hope there is a book 2 because I would like to know what happens to them next. I was hooked and found the story very easy to get into. 5 stars Blurb Corelle’s fairy tale dream turn

My Review Thank you @raraesouces and Diana Wilkinson for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Girl in seat 2A is a psychological genre which is my favourite genre. I found this book to be addictive and very hard to put down. I read this book very quickly. The Girl in seat 2A defiantly made me think, and I did get the twists correct, which I was glad. The story is at a fast-paced which was good and Diana Wilkinson writing is very easy to read, and I really got into the story. The story is about Jade who is scared of flying and goes aboard on holiday due to winning some money and getting away from her ex. Jade comes across two men who's seem to be interested in her but not what they seem. The narrator is in two parts, mostly Jade and then Marta and I did think that worked well. I can't wait to read more by Diana Wilkinson soon. Fantastic read 5 stars. Blurb Funny how one lie can spiral… ​ One thing about me: I HATE flying. It’s my worst nightmare. ​ T

Thank you @ZooloosBt for letting me me part of this tour and reviewing this book. Psychopomp Drive is a fantasy genre and I love the front cover of the black cat which is what drawn me to the book straight away because it reminded me of my black cat Rosie. The story is about Finley who is murdered and then a black cat appears to him and offers him one path. I found the story to be intriguing and made me wonder what was going to happen to Finley and his new adventure in the afterlife. The story is very different from what I normally read and I find the story to be at a fast paced that will keep you hooked. There is some goid twists in the book.

Thank you @lovebookstours for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. I listen to the Climb on audiobook and its young adult teenage romance novella. This is the first book I have read by Amra Pajalic and I really enjoyed it. The narrators were Nina Nikilic and Alec Shea, and they worked well together. The characters were Noah and Zephyra who have been best friends from high school. Noah is started to get feelings for Zephyra, but she looks at him as a brother. I enjoyed following their friendship and then taking it slow to see what happens. I found this a very easy read and Amra writing is very engaging, and you can't help but enjoy the characters. I did feel sorry for Noah every time Zephyra came near him, he would get excited and could not help what happened to him. Both characters are lovely and this is a feel good read. I will definitely being read more of Amra books. 5 stars. I listen to the audio in 2 hours straight, and I hope there is second book beca

My Review Thank you @catherineaitken @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter #FreeReview #FreeBookReview for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Liberation of Bella McCaa is a romance comedy genre. It took me a chapter to get into the story, but after that, I loved and thought Bella was a wonderful character. Bella gives up her life to look after her mum and then her Mum dies and she's hoping she can relive her life again in London doing the job she loves, but it does not out like that. The story made me smile in places, and Bella seems like a lovely person and devoted to her aunt. The story is well written and heart-warming story. I liked the twists and turns that came, and I didn't see them coming at all. A great read and cant wait to read more by Catherine Aiken. I strongly recommend. It's engaging and entertaining. 5 stars Blurb Bella wants her life back but life keeps getting in the way. Here’s what some early rea

Thank you @zooloosBT for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Wolf and the favour are a fantasy genre.

Hannah Mum does not live with them and is only in contact with Hannah now and again which upsets Hannah because she misses her Mum, but she comes across the lane which allures her there by a strange tree and then there is the wolf.

Thank you @rararesouces and Gina Cheyne for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Chameleon Killer Mystery is a Detective Gener and is book 4 in the series. You can read as a stand alone, as I did. The front cover is a pretty pink colour that will attract your attention. The story is about the detective Agency that is investigating a murder and Rupert who was murdered his ex-wife gets arrested. It was interesting to follow the three ladies who were investigating this murder and how they came to solve the mystery and help the ex wife. Entertaining read that is at a reasonable pace and is well written. I will go back and read the other books in the series. A good read 4 stars. If you like detective novels you will love this book.

My Review Thank you @rararesources and Helen Golden for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. A cocktail to die for is a mystery genre. The story is set in hotel and is about Beatrice and her friends who are on hen do but then a woman is found dead. A cocktail to die for is part of a series and is book 8. You can read as a standalone, as I did. I loved how I was guessing all the way though who I thought was the murder, but I thought wrong. There is a great twist that I did not see coming. This is a cosy read that will take you way from your life for a while. A good and entertaining read 4 stars. A Cocktail To Die For Cocktails, chaos, and an unexpected twist.

My Review Thank you @rararesources for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Enemies to lovers is a romantic comedy genre. I have struggled to get into books lately, and I picked Enemies to lovers up over Christmas and brought it, my love of reading back. I absolutely adored this book and it's a fantastic read. Furthermore, I was hooked from the first page and could not put it down. The story is beautifully written and I was engrossed. The story about Lara and Sonny who are journalists and they both hate each other. Their bosses decide to send them on assignment together on a tropical island, and they have to pretend to be a couple. I found this very entertaining and made me laugh. I did like the characters Lara and Sonny, they worked well together. The plot was awesome, and I was glued because I needed to know if they would work together eventually and become more than friends. It made me want to go to the island, it sounded fun. Can't wait to read more. 5

Thank you @HeatherJFitt for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. More Life as a Dog is the first book I have read by L. A. davenport. I will make sure I read more. This is a memoir genre about Kevin the Dachshund. This is book 2, but you can read it as a standalone as I did. I felt like I went on an adventure with Kevin and his master, and my heart was in my mouth when Kevin had found a way out of his master garden and was lost for a while. I was so glad Kevin came back when his master shouted him. I was so happy. I felt many emotions reading this book, it made me smile at times and made me want to get a dog and other times when Kevin got poorly and had to have an operation it made me sad. I found More life as a dog a very touching and heart-warming read. The book is well written and a lovely read 4 stars. Blurb How do we keep getting into these scrapes? The adventures of one man and his black and tan dachshund continue in the second volume of tales where the bo
