Review: A Diagnosis Dark & Deadly by Heather C. Myers 4 of 5 stars

A Diagnosis Dark & Deadly: A Dark & Deadly Novella A Diagnosis Dark & Deadly: A Dark & Deadly Novella by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Olivia Goodson broke up with an abusive boyfriend but then bizarrely hooks up with doctor and top diagnostician Mason Hadley who is her boss on the same night. She never used to be the type of girl to do a "friends with benefits" type situation but Mason is so good she can't help herself. Then it all goes wrong when feelings get involved. Then when her ex-boyfriend does something that needs Hadley to make to make a choice that Olivia now needs to decide if she can forgive or not.

This is a charming story that has a definite dark twist at the end. As I would expect from this author it was well written and I could clearly pick up the thoughts and emotions of the characters. Loved the twist at the end.

Review: A Reputation Dark & Deadly by Heather C. Myers 5 of 5 stars

A Reputation Dark & Deadly A Reputation Dark & Deadly by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Logan Jeffrey is a tenured criminology professor at the University of Newport in Southern California. He is also a man with a reputation for saying whatever he wants ad calling out students. He also pushes them to their true potential as everyone who passes with a A has a job by the time they graduate. He also has a reputation for sleeping with his teaching assistants and breaking their hearts.

Payton knows all about Logan but knows she can't avoid him forever now she has been accepted into the graduate programme - plus she is his only TA this quarter so she is going to be spending too much time with him. As she spends more time with him she is drawn to him and feels as if she can't stay away even though she really should.

I LOVED this story. The efforts she went to try and stay away from him and the way she failed. It was charming the way their relationship developed and the various twists and turns in their story.

Review: A Beauty Dark and Deadly by Heather C. Myers 5 of 5 stars

A Beauty Dark and Deadly A Beauty Dark and Deadly by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Emmy Atler's grandfather has increasing medical bills so in a desperate search for a job earning good money she applies to the advert for a maid for reclusive writer Jason Belmont - known for the murder of his wife and her lover more than his books (even though he was found not guilty on a technicality). When she is there she finds him quiet and awkward, treats her with respect, but that doesn't mean he is innocent. Can she keep her head down and do her work while ignoring her growing attraction to him?

This was a lovely story told in a sensitive way. She really captured the dilemma and emotions involved in the decisions that had to be made. I really enjoyed the story and didn't expect the ending.

Review: Stranger Series Box Set by Heather C. Myers 5 of 5 stars

Stranger Series Box Set Stranger Series Box Set by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Stranger Series Book 1 - Stranger

Very interesting story based on people who are different to normal humans due to an ability like mind reading, strength or shape shifting (as examples). They are at a school set up to train them and this is the story of Sophie and her journey of knowledge and training at the school. She gets friends, and we get to see the lives of her and her two roommates at the school.

There is also danger from a different group of people with the same abilities and there is a close shave as they try to abduct the three roommates. Fortunately they escape thanks to one of them using her abilities, but that puts them in even more danger in the future.

Recommended. I enjoyed it and now want to know what happens next - do the various love interests come to fruition or does something happen. What is going to happen to the danger from the other people with abilities?

Stranger Series Book 2 - Finder

Sophie is looking forward to forgetting the troubles of the past and enjoy her holiday with Will in Washington. She might still be with Jason, but as the weather in Washington cools the heat between Sophie and Will is definitely heating up. Jane is attacked and wounded, then Sophie gets a letter from her parents' wanting to meet. Sophie is then taken by someone familiar and everything starts to make sense. Can they sort all of this out?

I liked this story. It had lots of plot twists and turns with plenty of surprises. Whilst everything was clearly told and explained I did find it a little annoying in places. However I was swept away with the action and developments.

Stranger Series Book 3 - Keeper

General Arbuckle reveals the existence of Peculiars to the world and so the school has to close. Jane seems to be alive and Daryl's older brother (who is also mentally unstable) agrees a deal with Daryl and Ethan to get her back by Sophie has a bad feeling about it all. Can Sophie get to the bottom of it all with a dead body and a protective ex-boyfriend to cope with as well?

The book was well written, the descriptions of places, emotions and the characters were given in great detail. This was the conclusion of the series. It was nice to read the conclusion of the story and see all the pieces join up, but I have a real problem with the very end - it was crying out for more books to be written about the characters.

Blood on the Rocks Blood on the Rocks by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Seraphina Hanson is 23 years old, a college graduate, and after finding grandfather dead in his office suddenly inherits the Newport Beach Seagulls ice hockey team even though she knows nothing about it.

As she takes on the responsibility of running the team, the police start suspecting the star goalkeeper and she has to find a way to prove he is innocent.

This was a lovely story which has been told well. The writing was her usual good standard. I found it easier to follow through it I ignored the ice hockey connection and just think of it as a sports team as I know nothing about it as a sport.

An Education in Business: A Somerset Novel An Education in Business: A Somerset Novel by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Avery Montgomery is striving to prove herself in the male dominated world of business in order to show she is worthy to succeed her father and run his company when he retires. She has no real world experience but she did Summer Internships at the company and graduated from Somerset University with a honours and has a Master's degree in Business.

She sees the opportunity to invest in a Supernatural Registry application but she has a rival - Lucas Cruz - an Alpha shifter and self-made billionaire with lots of experience. To make it worse Avery's fiance Rick Ashton and both her parents are doubting her ability to get this contract due to her lack of experience.

How bad can a girl feel - she is a virgin in the boardroom and the bedroom and she appears to be taking flack from her so called loved ones for both.

Suddenly, Avery is being doubted by fellow businessman and her fiance, Rick Ashton, her mother, and her father's company. They all say the same thing: Experience is everything. Then Lucas offers to educate her in both areas - does she take him up on his offer and can she keep it purely business?

I loved this story and the premise behind it. I felt for Avery when it appeared that no one but Lucas was prepared to believe in her and give her support. Well written and very clear and enjoyable.

Review: Life in Neverland by Heather C. Myers 4 of 5 stars

Life in Neverland Life in Neverland by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Neverland does not contains live people generally, just souls. However the person who collects the souls is alive but it is very much like being in a cage with no escape.

Remy Cutler is alive and the captive of The Magistrate - she needs to find a way to save herself and stop The Magistrate from getting control over all three realms in Neverland. If The Magistrate is victorious, Remy will never be able to return home and will have to spend eternity transporting souls to her. More than anything, Remy desperately wants to have the ability to decide for herself what her fate will be, while also being able to be with James Hook. She will never get the opportunity to decide for herself if Neverland is her home and to be able to tell James Hook how she feels about him.

This is the last part of The Neverland Trilogy.

I enjoyed this story a great deal. Everything was worked out between all the parties in ways you may not have guessed, and Remy finally had some choice and closure. I felt empathy with many of the characters in the book and could understand their feelings and motivations. A well written and enjoyable book.

Wanted By You Wanted By You by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Riley Ledger is the sheriff's daughter, wishes she was born a boy, and would rather read than anything else. She is also feisty and as stubborn as anything. Her family appear to be ashamed of her and there seems no hope of marrying her off.

Then she comes across Reese Hemingway: attractive, rich, and everything Riley hates in the male species. He seems interested in Riley and her family think their prayers have been answered. However their first encounter does not go well and Reese goes to slap her for ignoring him (her book was more interesting) and she is saved from the slap by Scott Lucas, wanted criminal and man who is determined never to fall in love.

Riley is intrigued by Scott but that turns to hate when he kidnaps her for money. Will her family pay the ransom or will she be abandoned somewhere?

This was a lovely story of a story set in the wild west that you can imagine happening for real. The story was well told and I could definitely sense and feel the thoughts and emotions involved in the story.

Review: The Dark Paradise Trilogy Box Set by Heather C. Myers 5 of 5 stars

The Dark Paradise Trilogy Box Set The Dark Paradise Trilogy Box Set by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Awaken: Book 1 of The Dark Paradise Trilogy Book 1
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is centred around the struggle between good and evil and the impending war between the two. The main three characters are all friends at school who are mixed in this war that is coming in different ways. In this book, two of the three have a love interest which might not work out as you would like (read it and you'll understand).

I found it a little weird when it went back a few times to tell the same part of the story from the other person's viewpoint, but overall I really enjoyed it and became addicted and ended up finishing it when I should have been doing something else. I'm looking forward to finding out what happens in book two - I need to know how some things have worked out and what happens next

Catalyst: Book 2 of The Dark Paradise Trilogy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Andie Shepard has moved on from all the rumours and innuendo about her and the CEO (Jack) of her previous internship and is now doing an internship at another employer. However her new boss is illegally funding an act that could be detrimental to Black Wing so she needs to encounter Jack sooner than she would want.

Also Keirah has disappeared again and Noir has escaped - Andie suspects they are together but has no idea if she went willingly with him or not.

There seems to be a battle building and Andie seems to be in the middle of it all.

You need to read the first book in this series before reading this one. I thought this built onto the story very well and felt that I understood the characters a lot better by the end of this book. Definitely recommended.

Sacrifice: Book 3 of The Dark Paradise Trilogy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Keirah shows up at Andie's doorstep, asking Jack for help to find Noir. However at the same time Jack's new business partner (who is also his former romantic partner) is involving herself in the animal shelter, yet insists on Jack being there too, Reese then drops a bombshell on Andie, and the DA is doing everything he can to put the Black Wing in prison.

This book draws the whole story together and works towards a conclusion. There are so many things going on at the same time it all gets a little crazy hence my 4 rating for this book. As always it is well written and everything is clear bu as the action picks up I almost got lost in all the streams of story that were being pulled together.

Review: Save the Date! by Heather C. Myers 4 of 5 stars

Save the Date! Save the Date! by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Gemma is a 20 year old college student who's father is a high ranking manager in the CIA. Recently he has been getting threats and her parents are determined to protect her by arranging a fake marriage between Gemma and Dixon - an agent who works for her father and is 15 years her senior with the logic that if he is her fiance/husband he will always be there to protect her.

I love this little story which was very sweet. It was kind of weird that in modern day times she would be having what is on the surface an arranged marriage, that she would agree to it, and that her parents' would consider it to be acceptable. I loved that they were slowly developing feeling for each other and how they both tried to fight it. However I didn't really like the ending which could have been so much more than it actually was - I just felt disappointed.

Review: Trainwreck by Heather C. Myers 4 of 5 stars

Trainwreck Trainwreck by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sadie is a good girl and not the kind of person you would expect to have detention, but she has it this Saturday. Asher is a pothead, sometime criminal, and often missing from lessons - he is also in detention every week. They meet at detention even though they both take one class in common.

Sadie gets put in the supply closet towards the end of detention and ends up making out with Asher. By the time Monday comes around the gossip has escalated to the point that everyone thinks she had sex with him even though she didn't - in fact she is a virgin.

This is a tale of blossoming love between two people at opposite ends of the social scale - she is typical middle class, he has a drunk for a father. I found it hard work at the start of the book but persevered and really enjoyed it. I enjoyed the writing style as it described everything well - the people, emotions and surroundings. I could believe and imagine everything in the story.

The Art of Persuasion The Art of Persuasion by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Isla Barnes is not into a lot of things - love and commitment are two. However she is into having fun and sex with people, Sounds to me like a pretty empty life. She goes out on a bachelorette (or hen) party with friends and wakes up in a bed next to a pirate called Captain Matt Scott in the 18th century. Somehow she has to work through where she is and how to move on from where she has suddenly found herself.

I really liked the story but I got a little irritated with the sections where she was trying to sort out her feelings and deciding where she should be - it felt a little laboured which was a shame as generally it was a really nice book. I liked the descriptions of the locations and people in them.

Corsets & Crossbones Corsets & Crossbones by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brooke Cunningham is the daughter of a wealthy merchant who is being pushed to meet suitable men in order to find a husband - something she finds tedious and boring. Captain Charlie Colt is a pirate with an eye for beauty and the charm to match it even though his first love is the sea. Brooke and Charlie develop an unlikely friendship based on mutual trust before they get into all sorts of scrapes over a treasure map. So will they avoid the gallows, avoid the others that are determined to find the treasure and more importantly will they remain friends even when others seek to separate them?

A lovely story of love against the odds mixed in with tales of the high seas and pirates. I really enjoyed this book and loved the way we all knew who loved who before they had figured it out themselves. Great writing with good descriptions of the people and life with complex emotions that I certainly could feel.

Definitely recommended.

Beautiful Disaster Beautiful Disaster by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Isabelle Daniels arrived home early from a week visiting her parents for Spring Break with the intention of having a night of passion with her boyfriend of three years. Instead she finds a man called Johnny Clover who claims to be a pirate from the 18th Century in her living room. As she is trying to get rid of him her boyfriend arrives home with another woman. Izzy tells him they are though but doesn't seem to be able to get rid of the pirate.

This is a lovely romance where both Izzy and Johnny are doing their best to not fall in love - Johnny because he doesn't believe in it and Izzy because she is a romantic who can't countenance anything without love. Add into that mix pirates and a bit of time travel and you get all the scenarios for this to be a lovely tale where love is unavoidable and unavoidable. Well written and good descriptions used throughout.

Falling for the Devil Falling for the Devil by Heather C. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Harleen is a high school senior living with her Uncle Edgar who is her only surviving relative. As well as studying hard, she is also working to save for college and pay bills (she occasionally has the free time to see her boyfriend too) . Enter Andrew, a gorgeous guy with an Australian accent who just happens to be the devil. Edgar enters a deal with Andrew for unlimited wealth - the price is Harleen's soul.

Andrew manages to worm his way into Harleen's life and after a misunderstanding she finds herself in hell and marrying Andrew. Will she grow to love Andrew or will everything he has worked for fall in a heap and fail. I guess you need to read the book to find out.

I loved this book. Whilst I found the religious undertones a little irritating at times, in essence it was still a good story, well told. The descriptions of hell were good and I could see it in my head and imagine what it was like. The descriptions of the relationships were clear and easy to understand. Worth a read.
