Keeping Everyone Safe

Tratus: A Badari Warriors SciFi Romance Novel (Sectors New Allies Series Book 14)Tratus: A Badari Warriors SciFi Romance Novel by Veronica Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Badari have a few weaknesses. One is that you are born Alpha. That works well if the Alpha is a good leader but not so well if he is not. That is what Tratus is facing as he tries to keep the pack safe. A hard job when the Alpha is putting the pack in danger. Then to complicate the issue Tratus finds his mate in one of the humans being held captive. Everything unwinds from there. I love how Tratus is so aware of what his mate needs and how strong his mate is when he is betrayed. A lot of tension and danger. It takes awhile to get everything straight and for Tratus to take his rightful place in the pack. Love this series. This was my main read as soon as it was released.

Interesting Concept

The Midnight LibraryThe Midnight Library by Matt Haig
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nora Seed sees her life as a failure so she decided to end it. In that space between life and death she arrives in the Midnight Library. This was very hard to put down. Nora gets to survey what would have happened if she made different decisions. In spite of the serious nature of the plot it was a fun book to read. I thought that she would decide (no that would be a spoiler). Pick it up and see all of her choices.

Interesting Plot

Salvation DaySalvation Day by Kali Wallace
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First this is a stand alone so no follow up. It does come to a satisfying ending as in things may get better. The book was a surprise to me. Very readable and easy to follow the plot. That was what was a surprise. I expected several things before I started but not what happened or the order it happened in. Good characters, interesting world building, needed tension, and a well thought out plot make for good reading.

Not My Cup of Tea

Alien Warrior's Promise (Vaxxlian Matchmakers #2)Alien Warrior's Promise by Sue Mercury
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Not that much danger or tension. Most danger was in the past, left far behind. What is in the present was just a plot point. A OK read but I will skip the rest of the Vaxxlian Matchmakers.

Writing to Passive

A Judge's Secrets (STEALTH: Shadow Team Book 3)A Judge's Secrets by Danica Winters
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Too much passive story line and not enough active for my taste. There was tension and romance as the story progressed. A lot of danger but the bad guy was the one I suspected from the beginning.

Interesting

Shards of Earth (The Final Architects, #1)Shards of Earth by Adrian Tchaikovsky
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This caught me for the first half, bogged down in most of the second and left me wondering at the end. This is pure Science Fiction and the Architects are a very unusual and interesting life form. The characters were interesting and there was tension and danger throughout the book. If you want a pure SciFI book this is for you.

What Happens in Vegas

Tigre (Alien Castaways #6)Tigre by Cara Bristol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kat and Tigre strike sparks the first time they meet. What a pair. Kat with trust issues and Tigre just trying to win her over. They have a rocky road but the HEA does come for both of them. There is danger, tension and romance as well as what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Until it does not.

Free at Last

<Servant MageServant Mage by Kate Elliott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Fellon longs to be free but when the opportunity comes it is not what she expects. That is the start of a tension filled journey. This has the problem that Fellon was recruited for and the long range problem that is yet to be solved. This is an easy and enjoyable read. The world building and character development is folded into the plot. The plot is not straight forward and the twists and turns kept my attention. Everything is set up for the next book.

New Series

Gutter MageGutter Mage by J.S. Kelley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

With an interesting plot Kelley sets the stage for later books. While one thing is settled much is left up in the air. The plot allows for character development world building. This is a great start to the new series.

LOL

Devil in Disguise (The Ravenels, #7)Devil in Disguise by Lisa Kleypas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lady Merritt Sterling and Keir MacRae should have nothing in common but they really product sparks when they meet. I loved the story and how many times it made me laugh out loud (something we all need right now). The secret in the story was often included Sebastian (one of my favorite characters from the first books in the series). It was good to see him still acting as he did at first. This is a must read for series fans and an easy one to read as a stand alone.

Nice Story

Hunted (Interstellar Brides Program, #17)Hunted by Grace Goodwin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Vice Admiral Niobe and Quinn are a match but they still have problems. Interesting addition to the series. Not much tension but a lot off intersection on the part of the two.

Fun

Hacking Mr. CEO (Billionaire Heists Book 3)Hacking Mr. CEO by Anna Hackett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Last Billionaire goes down but not without a fight. However Mav and Remi do not fight it that long. turns out they are perfect for each other. This is a good ending to the Billionaire trilogy. Now when will we get Vander's story. He keeps popping up but still no HEA.
