I have always loved a good ménage and Lost & Found did not disappoint. Nick and Ace’s need for Pepper was sweet, and the way they protected her, perfect. Introducing James was like the icing to the cake too.
KL Donn, thank you for introducing me to a genre I could binge on!
I am amazed at this author’s way of tackling issues, how she tells her readers that everything and anything can be overcome, just like her heroines do.
Yes, we know it’s fiction, and her men—Case here, are too good to be true, but us women can dream, right?
One thing that stands out, is the fact that through Evie, she KL Donn tells us that although real-life adversities give different reactions, we women can rise above it all as long as we believe we can.
Everyone was telling me to read Dom’s story after I finished Kennedy’s Redemption. Well. Am I glad I did, ‘coz I love, love, loved how Deidre and Dom’s story came about…how Dom was a bodyguard, a protector, and then a lover at the end.
I also loved the banter, knowing that the heroine had a backbone- she was Irish, after all. I loved how she stood up for herself, how she had Dominic and his son, Jax, wrapped around her little finger.
And yup, that little boy, with the way he talked, was so adorable!
All in all, I give KL Donn 10 stars for Owned by Dominic, and I thank her for introducing me to Dom! Now on to Case…
KL Donn introduces us to the story of Detective Kol Daniels, brother of Arsen (Until Arsen) and Ember. An event organized by his sister leads him to a girl his heart and soul recognizes as his, only to lose her when she runs away.
Thea Andrews is flawed. Scarred and terrorized by events from her past, Thea tried to flee when she saw that she caught Kol’s attention.
Realizing that he needed to be careful with Thea, Kol makes it his mission to obtain her trust and eventually her love. Discovering how much agony she tries to hide away from the world, Kol pushes until Thea lets her guard down and starts to open up.
KL Donn, the awesome author that she is, does it again. She gives us another story of hope and redemption. She gives us, through Thea, strength, and resilience–powerful ammunition against people and circumstances that seek to tear us down. She tells us, through Kol, that we only need to trust–to reach within, and without, to that place where faith resides–our hearts.
Written under the Happily Ever After Alpha world of Aurora Rose Reynolds, KL Donn brings to us the story of Detective Arsen Daniels and kindergarten teacher Marina Parks.
Arsen, the eldest of three siblings, longs to have a family of his own. He meets Marina, a woman who believes she is broken after a devastating accident leads her doctors to tell her that she will never be able to bear children.
Fate, fickle-minded lady that she is, brings these two together, and the result is truly worthy of a KL Donn-Aurora Rose Reynolds collaboration!
Dear reader, if you haven’t read any of KL Donn’s stories, here is your chance to get acquainted with this lovely lady’s work. Short reads, long stories, stand-alone or series, if you are the type who is brave enough to read a wide variety of topics, I would encourage you to take a chance with her.
Or, if you are the type who seeks relief in a story, then please go ahead and read Arsen and Marina’s story, for theirs is one of hope, love, and trusting that everything will be alright in the end.
Short, sweet, OTT, and sigh-worthy. It was fun to read about Onyx and Gracie, how Onyx was the calming presence for Grace, a sheltered girl who was afraid to leave her apartment after escaping the clutches of her step-mom.
While whimsical, the story is not so much a fairytale retelling of Snow White and the evil step-mom (witch? I’m mixing them up, sorry), it’s like a mash-up of Little Red Riding Hood meeting the big bad wolf (who turns out to be cuddly).
I’m glad to read something different from KL Donn. This shows her diversity as an author, one that I will never get tired of following.
So what am I rambling about? Go ahead, get that one-click finger going! You won’t regret it!
It is true what others say … a Law a day truly keeps the bullies away!
KL Donn never fails to give us drool-worthy alpha heroes who make it their priority to save a damsel in distress, and this one, Law, makes me want to ask, where the heck was he when I needed him?
‘Coz yeah, Law can bully me ANY. TIME.
Otherwise, why the heck is this one so damn short? It’s like I took a deep breath and have yet to exhale! Oh yeah, it’s a novella. Sigh.
Anyway. Readers, if you want a short, sweet read with a whole lot of alpha hotness, go snatch this one up, BUT. LAW. IS. MINE.
K.L. Donn sure knows how to give readers a treat this Hallow’s Eve! What could be better than finally giving High School principal Jack Daily his own happily ever after? Giving him his very own Eden!
If this is your first time reading a K.L. Donn story, I would suggest that you lock your door, settle in, relax, and prepare to feel hot all over, ‘coz Mr. Daily is H.O.T.!
Violet’s grandfather wants to see her walk down the aisle. Ross’s dad wants to see him settle down to curb his playboy image.
Enter three sidekicks, lost of childhood pranks and witty repartee, and you have yourself one surprisingly laugh-out-loud not-so-enemies-to-lovers story from one of the best authors in the indie industry.
So grab a bucket of snacks, relax, and let Lauren Landish lead you through page after page of Ross and Violet’s story!
It’s 3:27 AM and I find myself waking up with thoughts of Lauren Landish’s Racing Hearts, the third book on the Bennett Boys Ranch.
I search through Amazon for Mark and James’ stories, and I see that I already have them on my kindle, waiting for me to read. I guess I will, now that I have finished Luke and Shay’s story.
I must confess, though, that I was not at first keen on reading about the Bennett boys, because I was stuck with thoughts of her Dirty Fairy Tales. And then I got the chance to read Racing Hearts. I must apologize to Lauren Landish. I never should have doubted reading James’ and Mark’s stories when I had them, because, well, this one, Racing Hearts, hit a bit close to home for me.
Let’s start with the plot. Racing Hearts was everything I knew Lauren could give in a story: well-written, that I never doubted. There may have been some errors, but they were so few that it never took away the pleasure of reading about Shay and Luke, how their love was able to bring closure to the bad blood between their families.
The characters. I fell in love with Luke and Shay from the first page to the last. I felt for her brothers, and am eagerly waiting for Lauren to let her readers get to know Brody, Bruce, and Bobby.
I am shaking my head for not starting the series in order. I know this is a stand-alone, but I would have preferred to have read Buck Wild and Riding Hard first. That’s just me, being OC.
As I said, this one hit a bit close to home. I lost my Dad years back. They said it was a heart attack that took him. I was the one closest to my Dad, I was his princess. I listened more to him than I did to my Mom.
I did not attend his funeral, though, and to this day, I have no regrets for seeing him one last time. You see, he was like Shay’s Dad, he was a gambler. No, he did not gamble with our finances…instead, he gambled with our hearts. And I hated him for it.
To this day I haven’t been to his gravesite, although, in my heart, I have forgiven him. I am his daughter, after all.
So, Racing Hearts…there are some takeaways for me in the book and I thank Lauren for them:
“There are some stories that I’ve never heard and some I’ve heard a million times, all little pieces of tape that hold myself together.”
“It’s not a big secret, I’m afraid,” Mama Louise admits. “I just add freshly fried bacon, onions, and mushrooms to the green bean mixture. I dice them all up and sauté them down so they’re invisible before adding them.”
–Lauren Landish, Racing Hearts
Little gems that may not hold any meaning to some of you, but they strike deep within my heart. If you haven’t read the Bennett Boys, please, I encourage you to do so. If it’s just to experience living in a ranch through the words of Lauren Landish, read it. If it’s reading about cowboys (yes, they are) and their badass women, read it. If it’s to find little gems as I did, read it.
Even if, as you read, you find yourselves rubbing your heart like I did.
“Courage is not the absence of fear. It’s doing what you need to do even when you wanna piss yourself. Hell, sometimes, it’s doing it while the piss is running down your leg.”
