Review:

For every reader who longs to know how their favorite characters are doing, this is the perfect addition to your collection. Moonlight in Massachusetts brings the entire Kennedy family back in one place and we get a special glimpse into how their lives have progressed since we last stepped into their world.

Each couple gets their own spotlight so we get not only a special time with each one of them, but so many also have their own children. Probably the most shocking fact in this scenario is that several of them are now angsty teenagers themselves. Watching how each couple deals with their growing family and remembering how they themselves were as teens is always a humble moment for any parent to remember.

This beautiful compilation is best read once the entire Kennedy series is finished as it’s not only a look into where each couple is in their relationship with each other, but also their ties within the family and how they are surviving at parenthood and in their careers.

I loved diving back in with the Kennedy’s and look forward a new generation with all the Kennedy children.

Synopsis:

An optional epilogue short novel in the highly addictive Kennedy Boys series by USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestseller Siobhan Davis.

Find out what is going on in the lives of your favorite family and their offspring. Set five years after the series end, this story begins with Selena receiving a prestigious award for Moonlight, the support center she opened to help survivors of abuse.

You can expect laughter, camaraderie, steam, a little drama and angst, and lots of love! The Kennedys are as close-knit as ever, and family still means everything to them.

This is a multiple POV short novel, including chapters from all the main characters in the series. It should be read after Reforming Kent.

Review – A Vow of Ruin by Sherilee Gray

A Vow of Ruin; The Thornheart Trials #2 
(A standalone within a series)

Publication Date: March 29, 2022

Genre/Tropes: Shifter/Paranormal/Epic Romance

Author: Sherilee Gray

Review Rating: 5 Gold Stars

Review/Synopsis:

Review:

An epic romance that brings adventure, mystery, passion, and two unlikely mates together with explosive heat.

Iris Thornheart is a witch and every time Draven Moreau is in her vicinity she can feel the hate rolling off of him. She doesn’t know what she personally did to offend him, but his animosity game is strong. Even as she tells him to stay away, his stalker game is also strong. Every time she turns around there he is, but overtime she doesn’t seem to mind, especially as he seems to be there at the right time when she needs help.

Draven doesn’t enjoy the overwhelming pull to the coven witch. He’d basically do anything not to feel the burning desire for her, but he can’t seem to stay away. Iris reminds him of a woman he hates and letting that anger go, an anger that has been boiling for centuries won’t disappear overnight, no matter what the attraction to Iris is.

Iris and Draven’s chemistry is off the charts and their back and forth is a great build up for this enemies to lovers story. Where a mating instinct is strong in wolves, hence Draven’s stalkerish ways, Iris isn’t quite on board to be mated to the man who doesn’t like her. After her last relationship went south she doesn’t want to be mated to anyone period.

These two mates are destined by the fates, but can they work when love isn’t involved? I loved this premise where two people didn’t just fall for one other over the heat of mating, but fought it every step of the way with the logic of their burned pasts. It built lots of angst and chemistry between them and really built the story.

Aside from just their budding romance, Iris has a mystery to unravel, a task to complete within her coven to keep them safe and add in her mate problems, Iris feels like the world is upon her shoulders.

This is a fantastic epic read and while I haven’t read the other books in this series, I’m highly intrigued to jump into them and continue with the Thornheart series as it unfolds.

Synopsis:

Iris

It’s the scars you can’t see…

After my last boyfriend tried to kill me, I swore off relationships for life. So why can’t I stop thinking about the dangerous—and completely unstable—alpha of the new wolf pack in town?

Thankfully, my heart isn’t in any danger, because Draven Moreau hates me with a fiery passion.

But when witches start disappearing and the fate of our coven’s magic falls to me, I desperately need his help. Only he doesn’t want anything to do with me…until he does. With a hidden enemy drawing me into their sick and twisted game, Draven suddenly wants me close, whether I like it or not.

As darkness closes in and the horrors of the past are repeated, I’ll have to fight for my life—and a love I’d never dared to hope for.
