WINGSPAN by Cambria Hebert

WINGSPAN
Westbrook Elite Book #2
by Cambria Hebert
Release Date: September 27, 2022 

Ever feel like you’re being watched?
It’s an awareness so familiar I adapted to it long ago.
Then I enrolled at Westbrook University to chase my dream
and make up for someone else’s lost one.
The prying eyes I’d known almost since birth…
They closed.
Even still, I never got too close.
I made friends with everyone but confided in no one.
My dates were carefully chosen,
meaning I went out with guys I didn’t really like.
And then I was attacked.
I slept in Jamie’s bed while he stayed near me on the floor.
He gave me his number, told me to call.
Oh, I wanted to call. But I didn’t.
Now those invisible, observant eyes that always seemed familiar have returned.
But this time? They chill me to the bone.
Someone is watching. Lurking.
And it’s only a matter of time until whoever is out there does more than stare.
The only place I feel truly safe is wrapped in the massive wingspan of an Elite swimmer.
The very man I know I need to avoid.
But as shit goes down, it becomes clear I’m going to have to surrender something…
My heart or my life.

 Love me some Jamie!, September 22, 2022 
Bro...Obsessed is an understatement when it comes to this series! 
After reading book #1 I immediately knew we needed more Jamie! Oh how excited I was to hear Hebert agreed to indulge us in more of this addicting bro-hood! She did NOT let us down either!! Honestly the entire crew is amazing & each has their swoon worthy moments. I hope we are indulged once again to hear more from our other Elite squad too!

If you have not read book 1... I will add from my previous review as it is still true for book 2 ... it is very rare for me to truly enjoy stories involving abuse (yes, this series has some triggering events). Yet Hebert once again tackles these topics with finesse & elegance never once going too far into that looming darkness. A rare gem awaiting it’s moment to shine. And … let’s face it, the woman writes like no other!! A kaleidoscope of suspense, action, snark, emotions, romance, unexpected connections, & smexy entertainment! NEED MORE NOW!!!

So...if you are looking for a thrilling getaway Westbrook may just be the perfect stop for you. In WINGSPAN mysteries of the past are revealed in a Hollywood version of "Who Done It?" with a bit of Scream-esque scenes, drama galore, mayhem, & the smexy is off the charts this round! 
 Still unsure? BRO YES, you need this in your life!!

The Seashell of 'Ohana ~ Review

The Seashell of 'Ohana
by Mary Ting
Publication date ‏ : ‎ November 22, 2022
An absolutely gorgeous and heartwarming read about finding love when you least expect it, second chances, and how loved ones who have passed away are still with you, no matter where you are. Fans of Debbie Macomber, Susan Mallery, Pamela Kelley, and Jenny Hale will adore this romantic journey of self-discovery and matters of the heart.

“The sweeping island scenery and romance left me feeling refreshed. This was a mini escape!” ~First for Women Magazine 

Since Abby became a widow in her mid-twenties, she's spent the past four years raising her son and working long hours at the gallery she owns with her sister in Kauai. She doesn't have time for a social life, nor does she want one. Until the handsome Ian Bordonaro comes back to town.

When Abby finds out Ian is grieving the death of his mother, she feels an instant connection. She knows his pain too well, and not many in her life understand what she's been through. Their friendship grows, but a lingering sense of guilt prevents Abby from moving forward. 

Will she surrender to grief and give up her second chance at happily ever after? Or will finding a rare angelwing shell intact on the beach be a sign it's time to open her heart again?

"I didn't know I needed this book until it landed in my lap. When you need a break from reality and just want to snuggle in with a cup of tea, some romance, and laughs; this book is perfect." ~Erin, Bookseller at Barnes and Noble

"[Mary Ting's] new romance promises to leave you in laughs and tears all the while reminding you that those you've lost are never as far as you might think." ~Tanya Roberts CER Indigo Books, Quebec Canada

*Gold Award Winner in Romance, Kops-Fetherling International Book Awards

All the Ohana feels!, September 18, 2022
This story thrummed every chord to my heart even as the tears fell. One thousand percent worth it! Ting has such a magical way of touching the soul. I often wonder if she realizes just how much she affects people with her art.
Everything about this world called to me, & before I knew it I had flipped the very last page. The few heart crushing moments were expertly woven & again absolutely worth it. The characters are easy to love (not to mention easy to crush on), their banter easy on the heart, the vision of the island easy to escape to, & their futures easy to dream about. Pushing this tale into the highly recommend list. The feels are real!

Blood Solace ~ Review

Blood Solace
by Vela Roth
Publication Date: February 23, 2022
If they reunite, a magical war could tear the kingdom apart

Lio is an immortal Hesperine, but he’s out of time. His Craving for Cassia’s blood is killing him, while an ancient spell and deadly politics keep them apart. His dangerous plan could save them both - or leave the Hesperines defenseless against their mortal enemies.

Cassia is the Hesperines’ secret protector in the human court, sabotaging the king’s every move. But her tyrant father will stop at nothing to make war on the immortals, no matter the cost to his subjects. It’s time for her to come out of the shadows, even if it means sacrificing herself.

Steamy romance meets classic fantasy worldbuilding in Blood Grace. Follow fated mates Lio and Cassia through their epic story of forbidden love for a guaranteed series HEA.

New edition featuring a fantasy world map, glossary of lore and characters, enhanced opening chapter, and all-new cover artwork

Oh my Orthros!, September 15, 2022
Thoroughly enjoying this hesperine’s tale more & more with each book. In Blood Solace we are rewarded a walk through the magical world of Orthros meeting all of the elder firstbloods & their families. What an amazing world they have built! This is only after a terrifying trip & run in with heart hunters, of course. Prepare yourselves for a whirlwind adventure of magic, conspiracy, romance, fabulous world building, & a kaleidoscope of characters.
Each have won a special place in my heart as we have gotten to know them better, & I am eager to see what is to come for them all. The queens have mesmerized me. I would eagerly read more about all of the characters who rushed to Cassia’s side making her feel welcome & wanted. Of course, I am particularly fond of sweet little Zoie. Still holding on for Lio & Cassia’s happy ever after too. I hope it is as epic as their love for each other. Diplomacy be damned…I hope to see her tyrant father taken out only after finding out all of the deeds his daughter had a hand in. He deserves nothing less! Chysanthos & Skleros with him!
Can’t wait to get my hands on the next book to continue this addicting adventure!!
