Stolen Innocence by S.M. Stryker

I never read what this book was about, I simply picked it up because it was by a recommended Author and I liked the cover and name. I didn't think too much about the name of the book in terms of what it would be about but it definitely made sense. The thing I loved most about this book is that it didn't just give you a story line, get to the biggest parts of what happened and then leave it there. This book had a good solid beginning middle and end. No cliff hanger. Even other books with no cliff hanger don't leave you so satisfied. Without giving away the details, the basics of this story, a young girl experiences some terrible things and sets out to make something of her life in relation to that as soon as she is old enough. As most know, one bad experience is never the end, the difference is how you deal with each bad experience and who you have with you to help you through. In this story the girl Parker happens to accidently find a young man name Ian and they seem really taken with each other. But like with any bad experience it's hard to escape your demons and there is the possibility that the person you find can't deal with your demons and who would want them to. In this story we follow her experiences with and without Ian and see whether or not she overcomes all the obstacles placed in her way. It's a very great written story and a great read. I highly recommend.

Every Rose (Take a Chance Book 4) by Nancy Warren

I especially loved this story. You've got two people who are complete opposites yet feel the same way about what type of person they date. Throughout the story you can feel there is an attraction between the two but they have rules, they don't date doctors. Throughout the story events occur that cause the two to work more closely together. Will they forget their rules and see where things go or will the continue to fight nature and their feelings for one another. I'm not good with these reviews but I do believe in sharing the fact that I thought it was a great story and worth the read. I enjoyed the entire story and definitely recommend.

The Crane Series by Nancy Warren

The Crane Series:

Book 1 Sun Kissed is all about Jennifer Talbot and Cameron Crane. Cameron Crane is from Australia and very into surfing as are his many employees. He's also very get what I want when I want, did not complete school and now owns his own business for Crane Surfboards. Jennifer's job is to come in from the States and help get him set up to launch sales in California and be successful. Jennifer of course is engaged to be married to a Mark Forsythe but since going to Australia has questioned their relationship with Mark and when she asks him, the response she gets is in my opinion what ultimately pushes her over the edge realizing maybe it's just not right. Jennifer is also out to find the perfect model for the campaign and thinks she has found the perfect candidate in Steve Jackson. Overall I think this is a great story. I enjoyed it and now would love to see Australia in person.

Book 2 Sea Kissed is all about Lise Atwater who can't seem to ever take a break from work and stresses herself to the max not enjoying life and about the great Steve Jackson who Jennifer believes is the perfect model for Crane Surfboards. When Steve and Lise first meet the first impression are a bit off but those first impressions do trigger the two to hang out and get to know each better and ultimately help each other to be successful at their jobs. Without Lise, Steve wouldn't be able to play his part for the ads because he's never acted or modeled before and without Steve, Lise would still be a bundle of nerves and knots. The two could not have been better paired for each other in getting this campaign going. But will it last? I mean doesn't Steve need to return to Australia sometime? Especially since he's told family and friends he just went on a short vacation. I personally really enjoyed this book as well. It moves right along with the story line from book one in what's going on and is just a perfect love story.

Book 3 Star Kissed is all about Cameron Cranes half sister Bronwyn Spencer and Jennifer Talbots ex Mark Forsyth. In this story we have another great love story of perfect matches however the journey there is denial. Mark still loves Jennifer as Jennifer loves him but they don't realize how over it is and how perfect it was until they confront each other after Mark has been with Bronwyn and fallen in love but Mark may have messed up his chances with Bronwyn by his reaction when he found out she is Cameron's half sister. Will they have their happily ever after? Definitely worth the read to find out.

My Time in the Affair by Stylo Fantome

Have you ever been in a relationship and felt it was all wrong? Or at least that while you love the person, you're not in love and the relationship just isn't what it should be? Do you try to fix the relationship first? Do you tell them it's over? Do you do something drastic then tell them? How do you handle something like this? 

In this particular story we follow Mischa who just happens to be dealing with this very thing. She's tried to fix it, tried talking to Mike, tried getting through to him that something just isn't right in their relationship and no matter what she does...he just does not listen, does not see it and ultimately continues to push her away. 

So in this story following Mischa, we live the pain, the heartache, the love, all the emotions she goes through, that anyone would go through in such a situation. We follow her on her business trip and her plan to cheat on her husband Mike. But as we all know...plans don't always go as planned. Things can change and for Mischa, change they did. What will happen to Mischa on her journey and what will be the end result!

This story is captivating from the very start. It's beautifully written. It's something that some people can even relate to whether they choose the same route as Mischa or another. I personally could empathize with Mischa and was as shocked as she was about a few of the events that occur. I highly recommend this story to anyone looking for a good book. Ultimately I feel this is a love story but more than that. It's a journey.

Midnight Shimmer (Toni Diamon Mysteries #3) by Nancy Warren

Book three had me wanting to take a cruise. This story takes place on a cruise they have won from selling Lady Bianca Cosmetics. During a cruise you wouldn't expect anything particular to take place however in the case of Toni Diamond, it seems trouble follows her and she just has to be in the middle finding out the answer. In this particular story you have multiple key characters in which you wouldn't initially think were related in any way however are very much related to each other. And after a virus causes many passengers to become sick, you have the perfect cover for committing a crime and not being suspected. So of course a crime does indeed take place and while Toni shouldn't get involved she just always happens to be in the right place at the right time and of course the one to put the pieces together. But in this story you start to think this might just be the end for her and she actually tried to stay out of it. And to find out if she actually saves the day or meets her fate, you can pick up your own copy to read.

Frosted Shadow (Toni Diamond Mysteries #1) by Nancy Warren

Book 1 of the Toni Diamond Mystery Series starts out with the Lady Bianca Cosmetics Convention. We learn early on in the book that Toni and another Rep are in tight competition. During the course of the event getting started there is a murder in which everyone seems to think is related to the Lady Bianca Cosmetic Line and of course Toni's eye for detail quickly gets her involved. Throughout the book you are trying to figure out who the killer is and why. And of course Toni would be right in the middle of the drama whether she liked it or not. When reading the book I had several people I thought could possibly be the killer and while the real killer wasn't who I thought it would be, I wasn't surprised because it made perfect since. 

The entire story is very well written and I loved reading it and finding out what happens next however when I first started the story I did have a hard time getting going but that's really because I'm just not big into cosmetics myself but the story quickly got interesting and I couldn't put the book down. Towards the end there are a few scenes you may not want younger audiences reading but otherwise the story was great and I'm excited to be starting #2.
