The Mating Truth by Brooke May

The Mating Truth (Long Claw Pride Book 4)The Mating Truth by Brooke May
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The Mating Truth is the fourth book in the Long Claw Pride series by Brooke May. The book follows a Mountain shifter community called the Long Claw clan . The book is the fourth in the series , I had not read the previous three but it wasn’t very difficult to follow the plot , though there are certain bits which I had to assume were part of the original storyline.

The story is about two pre fated mates , Harper and Afton and their calling . Harper is trying to recover from a cruel past and Afton is in the middle of protecting his family when they are united for their mating call . The book has all fantasy and paranormal romance elements woven into it , hot steamy romance , family bonding and community development . If you like such books , you wouldn’t be disappointed with this read .

Road to Paradise by Kelly Fletcher

Road to Paradise (Southern Sunsets, #1)Road to Paradise by Kelly Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a beautiful book, I picked it up because it was a small town romance. It started off as a typical ambitious heroine stepping into a small town to take over the company and then fall in love with the place story, but what bumped me over were the characters.
We have read books where the corporate heroine falls in love with the country side cow boy or a macho farmer, but the family she interacts with is a delicate bunch, which demands that life has to slow down.
We take so much for granted in our fast paced life, but if we are to live with certain neurodivergent conditions or health issues, life will have to slow down for the family. But will an outsider make the sacrifice? Would she able to understand the situation and take on the challenges?
This is such a beautiful story full of meaning and hope. I really would recommend this book.

Blackmailed by Holly Bush

Blackmailed (The Browns of Butcher's Hill, #2)Blackmailed by Holly Bush
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am a fan of mysteries and I love historic mysteries especially because the means of doing and solving the crime are a lot more logical than scientific. I did not read the first installment, so the characters were all established, but we jump straight to action.
Philip’s sister finds a man murdered outside the shop she works at. She approaches her brother to solve the crime. Virginia west wants to return the favor to Philip Brown by assisting him to solve the murder. Together they embark on a perilous journey. As they unveil one mystery, they find more and more danger lurking round the corner. Can they solve the mystery and escape unscathed? It is a very captivating read and I enjoyed every bit of it.

The Moon Gift: A Moon Festival TaleThe Moon Gift: A Moon Festival Tale by Anders Roseberg
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a very delightful book which teaches kids about the value of compassion, empathy and selflessness. It is a Chinese folktale narrated with beautiful illustrations. A mysterious Jade emperor sends four animals on a mission, and when they are presented with the challenge, each animal goes far and above to display kindness to a stranger. But one makes the ultimate sacrifice. It’s a lovely book about giving, and it also gives an insight into Chinese culture and the Mid-Autumn festival. I really enjoyed it.

Mouse Visits Joshua Tree National Park by Tricia Gardella

Mouse Visits Joshua Tree National Park (Mouse Traveler)Mouse Visits Joshua Tree National Park by Tricia Gardella
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such an adorable book. I picked it up because of the title. Our family loves visiting national parks , we have not been to the Joshua national park yet , so it was a very nice easy tour for us. The pictures are so endearing and cute, the little adventure comes live in action before our eyes. There is also an educational tour about the flora and fauna found in the park and the landscape of the park itself. I was doing my research side by side about the park as I was reading this book. I am going to go find all the other books in this series and follow the Mouse as he tours all the national parks in US. Loved it.

An Accidental Flatmate by Jennifer Raines

An Accidental Flatmate (Choosing Family Book 5)An Accidental Flatmate by Jennifer Raines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A sweet romance between two people, Beatriz and Cas who know each other professionally and like each other. Unexpectedly they end up in the same flat and decide to be room mates for a while. It is a sweet romance brewing between them and is an enjoyable read. This book is fifth in the series, I had not read the previous book so it was a little tricky to understand the background of the characters. The plot itself is a standalone read.
