Detective Sawyer definitely doesn't anticipate the hostile indifference from his new partner on the very first day in the Savannah Police Department.  However, he is determined to make their partnership work dispite the initial hostility. Royce Locke is a man with baggage and is recently reeling from an unexpected loss. Both men find butt heads in the beginning, but as their bond and partnership strengthens they find they jad more in common than they initially thought.

STARFIG INVESTIGATIONS (1-3) BY MEGHAN MASLOW : AUDIOBOOK REVIEW

Image
  SUMMARY   The last thing half-dragon, half-fairy private investigator Twig Starfig wants to do is retrieve a stolen enchanted horn from a treacherous fae, but there’s no denying the dazzlingly gorgeous unicorn who asks Twig to do just that. Literally, no denying, because compelling the reluctant detective is all part of a unicorn’s seductive magic. To add to his woes, Twig is saddled with the unicorn’s cheeky indentured servant, Quinn Broomsparkle. Dragons are supposed to want to eat humans, but Twig’s half-dragon side only wants to gobble up Quinn in a more . . . personal way. Making matters worse, it’s obvious the smokin’ hot but untrustworthy sidekick is hiding something. Something big. And not what’s in his trousers. In the PI business, that means trouble with a capital Q.  Throw in gads of zombies, a creepy ghost pirate ship, a malfunctioning magic carpet, and Twig’s overbearing fairy father’s demands to live up to the illustrious Starfig name. Naturally, an old bu...

PRECIOUS BY LILY LAMB: BOOK REVIEW

Image
  BLURB   I knew the instant I saw him he was meant for me.  I feel like the focus of my life took a hundred-and-eighty-degree shift.  I couldn’t stop thinking about him.  He became my obsession…my descent into hell.  Damn. I couldn’t be sure who the monster was…him, me or my enemies.  My heart and mind will defy all logic but he doesn’t know that.  I’ll do anything for Dillon. He defines my destiny and I will fight for his survival. Our fates are sealed.  I shall not wait any longer.  REVIEW   This book is unlike anything I have ever read. I don't want to give much away, so I won't go too much into detail about the story itself. I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading this, but let me tell you, I was engaged from the very first page. The twists and turns will keep you guessing and at the edge of your seat. The characters are real, relatable and well fleshed out. I liked that this was in dual POV as we get a perspective ...
