🎧 The Nowhere Child by Christian White #ChristianWhite @littrelly.speaking @macmillanaudio.bsky.social‬ #LoveAudiobooks #JIAM @audiobookmel.bsky.social‬

Christian White is a new-to-me author, and I had no idea what to expect from this story. Lately, I’ve been on a thriller kick, and this one sounded intriguing, so I decided to give it a try. Kimberly Leamy grew up in Australia with her mother, stepfather, and half-sister, living what she believed to be […]

🎧 King of Ashes by SA Cosby @blacktopkid.bsky.social  @alazarrewhite @macmillanaudio.bsky.social  #LoveAudiobooks #JIAM @blacklionking73 @MacmillanAudio

King of Ashes is very much in the style I expect from this author.  That doesn’t mean it is predictable, just that it tells a gritty story of what things are really like for some people.  Bad people trapping others through fear and intimidation into horrible acts and situations. The Carruthers family includes the father […]

🎧 The Bachelorette Party by Camilla Sten #CamillaSten #LauraJennings @macmillanaudio.bsky.social @minotaurbooks.bsky.social‬ #LoveAudiobooks  @MacMillanAudio #JIAM

I enjoy a mystery thriller sometimes and this sort where a party on an island gets cut off and then the bodies start dropping is a standard.  But the circumstances and characters make it all new.  The Bachelorette Party is a group of women in a bridal party going to a retreat on an island. […]

🎧 Hidden Nature by Nora Roberts #NoraRoberts @norarobertsauthor @justjanuary.bsky.social @stmartinspress.bsky.social @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @justjanuary @StMartinsPress @MacmillanAudio

🎧 Hidden Nature by Nora Roberts  #NoraRoberts @norarobertsauthor @justjanuary.bsky.social @stmartinspress.bsky.social @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @justjanuary @StMartinsPress @MacmillanAudio

Nora Roberts and January LaVoy are a favorite combination of excellent work. Romantic suspense is a favorite genre with the multiple emotional pulls from the romance and the suspense and thrill of the mystery.  Hidden Nature has many other great themes with families, home renovation work, good cooking, gardening, natural resource law enforcement and dogs. […]

🎧 Death at a Highland Wedding by Kelley Armstrong @kelleyarmstrong.bsky.social @katehandford @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @KelleyArmstrong @MacmillanAudio  @MinotaurBooks

I have not always been a fan of time travel but this author has two series where it is an element and I love them.  A Rip Through Time  series is where a modern day police detective ends up 150 years earlier.  So the story is primarily set historically. I would read this story in order […]

🎧 Jilted by Vi Keeland @vikeeland.bsky.social #AidenSnow #AndiArndt @macmillanaudio.bsky.social @RobinBridgeFour #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited

I’ve read a few short stories by Vi Keeland that have solidified my interest in her as an author.  So I was really excited to pick up Jilted, a full romance novel marketed with a 27 Dresses vibe.  Sloane was the Jilted former bride and easy to care about right away.  Wilder is the the […]

🎧 The Love Haters by Katherine Center @katherinecenter @pattimurin.bsky.social @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @PattiMurin  @MacMillanAudio

I have never been disappointed by this author. Katherine Center takes me on a journey with realistic characters who are sometimes wonderful, sometimes horrible.  While some of the situations may not be believable, the emotions are dead accurate. Katie is a videographer.  One of her co-workers got the assignment to film the Coast Guard guy […]

🎧 Firebird by Juliette Cross @Juliette__Cross #BlairDade #KaleWilliams @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited @RobinBridgeFour‏

What if those running the Roman Empire were dragon shifters?  That is the loose premise of Firebird the first book in of the new series, The Fire that Binds.  Juliette Cross has built a new world on the bones of Roman history and their gods.  It is a re-imagining where Minerva, goddess of wisdom, justice, […]

🎧 Murder by Memory by Olivia Waite @oliviawaite.com #BlairBaker @MacmillanAudio @macmillanaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks

Tammy @ Books, Bones & Buffy featured this on one of her future fiction type posts and the concept appealed to me.  It’s exactly the kind of themes I love – space scfi, murder mystery, detectives, and technology.  Murder by Memory is also a very quick read I did in one go. We meet Dorothy […]

The Antonia Scott series is about Antonia and her partner, Jon. They are sort of government agency law enforcement but a special program called Red Queen. The setting is Europe and they are based in Spain.  Jon is gay; he has had some issues with trying too hard to get the bad guys.  Rather than […]
