Viviane Brentanos’s Fragile Dreams is a very romantic love story about Ellie who is recovering from cancer and realizes that there is more to life than what her marriage has become. She starts to fall for Michael who is half her age but mature beyond his years.
This story was very engaging and endearing from the start until the finish. I had to read it all in one day because I couldn’t put it down. This is not your typical woman who falls for a younger guy romance. Every woman idealizes about such a romance in their lives. I do recommend this book to those that do find a younger man’s love a bit more endearing in the long run!

Luminous Nights by Michele Hart
Luminous Nights by Michele Hart is a about a Space Captain, Rachel Waters, who is forced to take a man with questionable motives and a past. The man “Jack” goes by many names but finds that maybe he still has a soul with Rachel. Can Rachel show this man that revenge isn’t always the right way?
While I enjoyed reading Ms. Hart’s book, I knew that I had read similar stories before. I also enjoyed the background she put into her characters, I felt like I knew them personally but felt that the book seemed to drag on at spots. Still a good overall read for the Sci-fi nut in your household.

First Christmas by Diana DeRicci
Diana DeRicci’s First Christmas is a love story between two paranormal shape shifters names Lyndon, who is a Cougar, and Jason, who takes a wolf form.
I think this work of Mrs. DeRicci is a wonderful love story for the gay community. It is a gentle romance that shows a softer side of love. I do wish that there was more of a climax to the story. Over all a decent read on a cold winter day.

Draven’s Crossing: Mind Games by Diana DeRicci
Draven’s Crossing: Mind Games by Diana DeRicci is an unusual book about Jackal who is a dreamweaver helping Torger solve the murders that are happening in Draven’s Crossing. During one of his dreams he finds Kristof a vampire who was assaulted. Will Jackal help Torger solve the murders? And what is happening between Jackal and Kristof?
Mrs. DeRicci really wrote a book that is completely different than her normal novels. I like the way she brought the world of the non-humans to live in harmony while some humans have difficultly with living with the non-humans. For those that are looking for a different M&M this would be for you.

River Rising by T.P. Jones
River Rising by T.P. Jones is a third in a series and the premise is that the community of Jackson, Iowa needs to come together to fight the oncoming flood.
When I first starting reading this book I did not realize that this was part of a series and I had trouble with figuring out the characters in the book. Warning: this is not a stand-alone novel. Not knowing the background of what already transpired really made the book hard to understand and hard to read in some parts. I would recommend reading the first two in the series before reading this one.

Mind-Blown by Michele Hart
Mind-Blown by Michele Hart is a sci-fi thriller/romance (if there is such a genre) that kept me on my toes. The novel did have a few places where it seemed to drag while rehashing some information but sometimes rehashing is necessary to keep the reader up-to-date on the storyline. This is a romance novel mixed with action and adventure and is not a-typical because of the engaging plot twists and corporate idealizations. You won’t be able to predict what is coming next. The story contains some of the latest technology and the author’s use of high-tech gadgets adds a new field of mind boggling thoughts to follow. Author Michele Hart develops her characters in a believable fashion.
You will fall in love with Holly Maddox's outgoing style. You can just imagine being a friend of Holly’s and her boss. Jon's and Holly’s relationship matures quickly keeping you intrigued. Jon tampers with Holly’s subliminal message folder. Micro-chipping is an idea that makes you wonder if that can be tampered with as well. Can it?
You can and will dread what is coming next because of the ethical dilemmas this novel involves your mind with to say the least. I think that Mind-Blown tells us of corporate and government control of the general population. You can’t believe what the micro-chipping topic brings to the table in any type of conversation. Fear grips me that micro-chipping technology has been available for a while and Mind-Blown takes you there and, I believe, makes you succumb to the thought that this can happen or might have already happened and I don’t like this idea.
The suspense is mind chilling. Without telling the end of the story and giving to much away I can say that I believe that a lot of the corporate happenings written here are true to our lives. You’ll continue reading this novel every second you have available. I kept it with me so that I could continue reading it anytime I had a minute or two.
Although this may not be an original thought...Mind-Blown blows your mind!
