Review: For the Love of Fire and Ice by Roxanne Witherell 4 of 5 stars

For the Love of Fire and Ice (Heads N’ Tails, #2)For the Love of Fire and Ice by Roxanne Witherell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dragon shifters Tony and Bryan are a bonded pair who are only missing a woman to share it with. Even with their work as owners of a multi-level club doesn't help them to find the right woman for her. Annette wants to find the kind of happiness her best friend Braelynn and so agrees to go on a date with a shifter that has been organised by Gerri Wilder. What she doesn't expect to find, are two men waiting for her at the restaurant, not the one she expected. Everything seems to be going well between them until a jealous ex who has come to claim Bryan for herself. Can Annette keep the two men she has grown so fond of?

This story had a lot of drama and danger involving the jealous ex and it was great to see that they worked together and were able to overcome everything that they had thrown at them. I loved their belief in each other and how they were able to work together even though the guys had not known her for a long time. Well written, it was clear and easy to read and understand. Contains a lot of sexual content which also includes MM and MFM scenarios.

Review: Winged Solution by Roxanne Witherell 4 of 5 stars

Winged Solution (Heads N' Tails, #1)Winged Solution by Roxanne Witherell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Braelynn Summers met a shifter three years ago at a bar and it resulted in her in a coma for three weeks and waking up with some brain damage which turned her into some sort of sex-crazed freak. Struggling she does something she swore never to do - she looks for a shifter to satisfy her intense sexual urges. Pegasus shifter Ronan Styles is running out of time - he has until his 38th birthday to find his mate or he'll lose his wings and revert to being just a horse shifter. He turns to Gerri Wilder at the Paranormal Dating Agency hoping that he is not too late for her to find his special someone. When she finds him someone, he is surprised to find that she is prejudiced again shifters. Can Braelynn move beyond her prejudice and embrace life with Ronan? Or will her past and his secret be their downfall?

I really liked this story. It was nice to see the best of shifters balanced with the worst of them too. I was so pleased that Ronan was so perfect for her and that they found a way to move past her history with shifters. Full of danger, drama and excitement the description of her flying with him was wonderful and actually made me feel quite jealous! Well written and very enjoyable. Contains a lot of explicit sexual content..

Review: Triple Flames by Alyse Zaftig 1 of 5 stars

Triple Flames (Paranormal Dating Agency)Triple Flames by Alyse Zaftig
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

The Prince of Ganamarsia needs a mate and they need to have had a child before his 30th birthday or he'll die. He also has to close friends who are like brothers so him and so together they form a triad. In desperation, after looking at every female on their planet as well as some others, they turn to Gerri Wilder of the Paranormal Dating Agency and she sends them a mate in a small shuttle. So soon as she arrives they know she is the right one, but can they persuade her that she is theirs and that she needs to stay?

There were parts of this book that had promise, but they were never expanded upon so that I could not connect them into the rest of the book. I could understand who the bad guys were but not why they were like that (did they think they were right for the triad and not the woman from Earth, had they made a deal in order to take control, was there another reason?) and then also what happened between the end of the problem (were the bad guys jailed, banished or executed), then what happened at the end (how did the pregnancy go, how did she settle into the role, did Gerri ever visit them). I have so many questions. As much as I love the PDA series, give this one a miss.

Review: Scrooged Over by Milly Taiden 5 of 5 stars

Scrooged Over (Paranormal Dating Agency Book 29)Scrooged Over by Milly Taiden
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Priscilla Bryant had thought it was simply being matched by the famous Gerri Wilder and then all her romantic dreams would come true. However, having met him, the shifter who was her match turned out to be a complete jerk and she never wants to see him again. Lake Walker knows that sexy Pricilla is his mate as soon as he sees her and was shocked to then find that she hates his guts (which is definitely not supposed to happen when you meet your mate). Yes, she is a handful, but he is willing to fight for the woman sho is his. It's not every day that Gerri is told she made a mistake (like never) but it seems that someone is doing everything they can to keep them apart even if one of them dies as a result. Can Lake and Pricilla solve the mystery and find out who is sabotaging their future together or will they be too late?

I really liked this which had lots of drama, danger and a huge mystery to solve as we worked through it all with them. It was cleverly written so you really weren't completely sure who and why until the end. I really felt for them and was really pleased when it was all sorted out and they could have a future together. Contains just some sexual content.

Review: A Little Elfin' Around by Julia Mills 3 of 5 stars

A Little Elfin' Around (Dragon Guard Holiday Love Stories Book 2)A Little Elfin' Around by Julia Mills
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Witch Ella Brown is the Keeper of the Christmas Star and the Curator of the Crystal Forest to light the way for Santa’s yearly sojourn. But she has a broken leg and it just will not heal - she tried magic and even Dr Bombay which means she can't ride her broom. Her familiar is a cranky and very old elf called Edgar insists that she has been cursed. Then her mate and Dragon Guardsman Liam hears and it did not go well. She just needs to face facts that she is never going to heal if she doesn't get his help. Can they save Christmas and cure Ella?

This was a sweet story if you can get used to the way that the Brown witches talk. I liked the premise of the story and it was a nice and short Christmas story. You really need to have read the previous book in the series in order to understand who people are and how Ella might have been injured.

Review: Caught Between Two Blue Aliens: An In the Stars Scifi Alien Romance by Celia Kyle by Michele Mills 3 of 5 stars

Caught Between Two Blue Aliens: An In the Stars Scifi Alien Romance Caught Between Two Blue Aliens: An In the Stars Scifi Alien Romance by Celia Kyle by 
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Waitress Jenna is struggling (even though she has three jobs) to keep herself and her two younger siblings safe and with a roof over their heads while paying for expensive medical treatment for the youngest who has a lung condition. So she took a well-paying job for one night at Drokten Main to dish out drinks and canapes. At the party, she overheard a plot to destroy the Drokten and kick them off the planet - which seems very wrong to her as they saved the planet from near destruction. So she ignores protocol and walks up to the blue aliens to warn them finding herself in front of the Commander of the entire Drokten fleet, as well as the Drokten Ambassador. She soon finds herself sandwiched between them where they tell her that she has to return to their ship and be with them. Determined to not be an alien one-night stand as well as conscious of her obligations to her siblings she slips away from them and returns home. However, they are determined to find the woman who is their mate and destined to complete their triad. Can they find her, accept her brother and sister, sort out the threat to the Draken presence on Earth and persuade her that she belongs with them on their spaceship and then planet?

I liked the plot of the story which was a good alien/human mate story and the way that they incorporated her siblings into their plans which were done with total care for her. I found the style of writing a little strange at times as it was a bit too chatty and casual in places. There were definitely times when I would have happily given her a little shake. The main thing is that there was a HEA in the end and I was very pleased with how it played out. Contains some explicit sexual content.

Review: Her Cougar Sunrise by Moxie North 4 of 5 stars

Her Cougar Sunrise (Paranormal Dating Agency)Her Cougar Sunrise by Moxie North
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tessa Blackwood was really angry - she thought she was in a relationship that was going somewhere when the guy she was dating left her a brief voicemail breaking up with her saying he had met a shifter and they were mates. In a very drunken state, she called Gerri Wilder at the Paranormal Dating Agency berating shifters for ruining her life! Fate (with a little help from Gerri) sent her to Texas to work in a bar for the weekend under the guise of earning extra money she could use to look after her sick mother. Cougar shifter Levi Nash was really not interested in finding a mate assuming it would either happen or not - especially as he had a secret that he was not prepared to share with anyone (especially his own sister). However, his little sister signed him up with Gerri Wilder and the PDA which he tolerated in order to make her happy. It only took a beer and the new waitress and his local bar to completely change his destiny. However, convincing Tessa that mates can and do happen in the blink of an eye is the only way they can both have a happy future.

This was a sweet story that had a few curveballs in the events that happened as part of events that happened to them both. I loved the way that Levi was having to work overtime in order to persuade Tessa and just how against the whole concept she was. I loved the way he moved everything (and everyone) in order for them to be together. Well written, it was easy to read and understand. Contains explicit sexual content.
