Another Great Series to Catch Up On

Knight Protector by Lindsay Buroker


I loved the characters and the afterward where Lindsay told how she decided on the characters. Both are just a little different and their path to romance is not at all smooth. Great to know they will show upon later Star Kingdom books. This is a stand alone but after reading I need to read all the Star Kingdom books.

Short and Sweet Book Reviews # 301 - A Billionaire Wolf for Christmas by Terry Spear, Fractured Stars by Lindsay Buroker

A Billionaire Wolf for Christmas by Terry Spear
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While this is #26 in the Heart of the Wolf series it works just fine as a stand alone. I liked the two main characters. Both are strong and find that they are not only mates but they work well together. Dr. Aidan Denali is working on a cure for something that is affecting all werewolves. Dr. Holly Gray is a strong woman who does what she thinks is best not what others tell her to do. There is conflict and danger as the two work together. There is also a very intense romance that develops between the two. A nice story with great characters, some who look to be in line for their own book.

I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.


Fractured Stars by Lindsay Buroker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really liked the characters and plot of this story. Both have secrets and both find that they get along much better than expected. Of course it starts out with them on separate sides. It takes prisons and escape and much more as the plot keeps the action going. This is a stand alone but I would love to see Dash and McCall in future stories. I also liked how sex was handled. No pages and pages and pages to skim through.

Short and Sweet Book Review #25 – The Champion of Baresh by Susan Grant, Star Nomad, Honor’s Flighr and Starseers by Lindsay Buroker

The Champion of Baresh (Star World Frontier #1)  by Susan Grant

Science Fiction Romance

It has been a long five-year wait for the start of a new series by Grant.  It is a very good story with great characters.  One, Prince Klark, is a carry over from her Star series and another, Jemm Ave, is brand new.  I loved how Klark was trying to bring honor to his family after his actions in a previous book did the reverse.  Jemm is perfect in the role of a very strong woman who is working hard to help her family.  The world building is very good and back-story for Jemm is spot on.  My only complaint -  It has been a long time since I read the Star series and the back-story for Klark is based on that series and I had forgotten a lot about what he did.  It does work as a stand-alone and has numerous hooks for future books set in the Star World Frontier.

Star Nomad: Fallen Empire, Book 1 by Lindsay Buroker

Science Fiction/Space Opera

Star Nomad sets the stage and introduces the cast of characters in the series.  Each character is set on his or her own agenda and joins Alex Marchenko as she sets out to steal a dilapidated ship from the junkyard where it has been for years.  Alex’s goal is the one central theme in the series.  She needs to find her daughter and start a new life.  Of course the goals of her passengers are making that hard.  Look for  great characters, interesting back-story,  and a multi-layered plot that will keep you reading.  There is also the hint of a future romance between Alex and one of her passengers.

Honor’s Flight: Fallen Empire Book 2 by Lindsay Buroker

Space Opera/Science Fiction

Book two of the Fallen Empire sees Alex and her passengers 

arriving at Perun to collect Alex’s daughter.  As you might expect that goal runs into trouble.  The daughter has been kidnapped by the Starseers.   Finding her daughter is still the main theme but the goals of the other passengers being more trouble and danger to everyone. Honor’s Flight keeps the story moving while adding to the back-story of several of the passengers. 

Starseers: Fallen Empire, Book 3 by Lindsay Buroker

Science Fiction/Space Opera

Book three and this is not a trilogy. There is more to come after this book.  Alex is still trying to find her daughter and ends up in more and more danger.  As if that is not enough the goal of one of her passengers leads to addition danger for everyone. We learn more about the separate goals of each character while adding to the world and character building.  I borrowed this on Amazon.   I had forgotten that I could borrow one book a month with my Prime membership.  This is a fun series to read and I am looking forward to the next book as Alex continues her quest to find her daughter.
