Taming His Viking Wife By Michelle Styles - Review

Hello Readers,

Today I'm diving back into the Mills and Boon delights with "Taming His Viking Wife" by Michelle Styles. Its an older book, but I'm not really bothered whether its the latest one out or has been around for years.

Here are my thoughts....

Taming His Viking Wife By Michelle Styles

Legendary shield maiden Sayrid Avildottar will marry no man unless he first defeats her in combat. And in powerful sea king Hrolf Eymundsson she has finally met her match. 

Hrolf might have won her lands - and her body - but can Sayrid welcome a stranger to her bed? The world of fighting is all she knows! But with a husband intent on seducing his new bride perhaps, just this once, Sayrid will discover that surrender can bring the greatest pleasure of all...

4/5 Stars
Review

I enjoyed the idea of this book a lot as I grew up with the Viking history all around me. There was something about the idea of seeing one of their stories come to life that drew me to this book. There was a lot of times that I was thrown out of the book's deep grasp, however it wasn't hard to pick back up again. I think there is a few areas that she could maybe work on and that would have made this book better. I have to give it four stars as I can see the love she poured into. I do recommend it however I do state that its not as close to what the history of the people is. If that doesn't bother you then its one you will most certainly enjoy.

Heir of Fire By Sarah J Maas Review

Hello All,

I'm back reading the Throne of Glass series and it was certainly interesting to read this one.

Heir of Fire 
By 
Sarah J Maas

Celaena Sardothien, heroine of the New York Times bestselling series, rises from the ashes to burn even brighter than before.
Celaena has survived deadly contests and shattering heartbreak-but at an unspeakable cost. Now, she must travel to a new land to confront her darkest truth…a truth about her heritage that could change her life-and her future-forever. Meanwhile, brutal and monstrous forces are gathering on the horizon, intent on enslaving her world. Will Celaena find the strength to not only fight her inner demons, but to take on the evil that is about to be unleashed?
In this USA Today bestselling third book in the New York Times bestselling series, Sarah J. Maas again delivers the epic fantasy, heart-stopping pace, and heady romance that have won her readers the world over. Look for a teaser for the fourth book in the series, Queen of Shadows, out in this same season!

5/5 Stars 
Review: 

This was certainly more gory and violent than her other books. We see the characters move onto the next chapters of their lives even though there is a sadness that surrounds them at not having Celaena in their lives. We are introduced to the witches in this book that prove to be almost heartless, ruthless creatures. If you wanted more action, gore and less romance then I recommend reading this book 



Sarah J Mass certainly takes this book to a whole other level and makes each page harder to not read. I was finding it very hard to put down. I enjoyed this book a lot and I hope that many of you will too.

Prince of The Shadows By Rachel Caine

Hello Readers,

We are jumping back in time with one of my favourite authors taking the centre stage spotlight. I hope that you will agree with me.

Prince of Shadows 
By 
Rachel Caine

A thrilling retelling of the star-crossed tale of Romeo and Juliet, from the New York Timesbestselling author of the Morganville Vampires series.

In the Houses of Montague and Capulet, there is only one goal: power. The boys are born to fight and die for honor and—if they survive—marry for influence and money, not love. The girls are assets, to be spent wisely. Their wishes are of no import. Their fates are written on the day they are born.

Benvolio Montague, cousin to Romeo, knows all this. He expects to die for his cousin, for his house, but a spark of rebellion still lives inside him. At night, he is the Prince of Shadows, the greatest thief in Verona—and he risks all as he steals from House Capulet. In doing so, he sets eyes on convent-bound Rosaline, and a terrible curse begins that will claim the lives of many in Verona…

…And will rewrite all their fates, forever.

5/5 Stars
Review: 

This took me back in time when Romeo and Juliet lived. I liked the magic, the love story the mystery even. The grandmother was one of the best villains in this and the risk that Rachel Caine writes in here reminds me why she is one of my number one authors to read. I wasn't disappointed at all and I can't wait to see what else that she read. I'm glad that she decided to do this novel for its just perfect and its something that needs to be savoured. This is a book that takes time and I recommend it with a glass of wine. 

I couldn't have loved this more.

Falling for the Single Dad by Emily Forbes

Hello Readers, 

I'm happy to give you the second part of the 2 in 1 Medical romance novel I read with Mills and Boon recently. I can't wait to share my thoughts...


Falling for the Single Dad
by Emily Forbes
Ex-army doc Abi Thompson is starting her life over at the Hollywood Hills Clinic. She might not believe in happily-ever-after, but when she meets her new boss, Damien Moore, and his little daughter Summer, Abi finds herself drawn into their loving family unit. Has Abi found happiness against all odds?

5/5 Stars
Review:

This is, in my opinion, the perfect military romance for those who are seeking one. The PSD element that the heroine Abi faces is done so well and it makes you connect with her instantly. The part with the dog just makes it for me. I like that use of dogs to help PSD sufferers. I have it myself not as bad as she does but I can feel how she struggles with it. It feels similar to my own. 

From the get go the romance and the bad ex-wife just worked and the whole piece flowed so well that I can't seem to give it any real fault. I have to just recommend that you read it yourself and you will find that you either love it or don't.
