CAT OUT OF HELL (JACK-O-LANTERNS) by Isabella Jordan

CHAINS (KISS OF DEATH MC 7) by Marteeka Karland
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3799
“I love returning to this world and getting to know these men better. It always is a lesson in not judging a book by its cover. I love that Ellie was able to look past his fears and give him a different perspective. I love that Chains step outside his comfort zone to protect not only Ellie’s person but also her heart.”
— 4 Stars from Titania, Goodreads Review
“Chains is a good man who’s steadfast in his intentions—until he meets Ella and her three lovable cats. It’s definitely something at first sight, but you’ll have to read it to see what. Ella’s guarded, a gentle soul with a steel spine, and watching them work through their walls makes this such a heartfelt read.”
— 5 Stars from Alice, Goodreads Review
“I loved this story! Marteeka sure knows how to pull her readers right into her world. The story was packed with suspense, action, steamy chemistry, and plenty of emotions that kept me turning the pages. Another hit from Marteeka that I couldn’t put down!”
— 5 Stars from Dawn, Goodreads Review
“Chains and witchy Elvira’s story is fun, intriguing and enjoyable from start to finish… suspense, drama and all kinds of Halloween fun! Chains is a great, fun, “spooky” season read!”
— 5 Stars from GKP2460, Goodreads Review
“I so loved this book! I loved Ellie and her passion for Halloween after what happened to her as a child. Chains is hilarious with his superstitions!”
— 5 Stars from Melissa, Goodreads Review
“…Chains is my favorite of the series. Such a great read that has it all! A great storyline, fantastic character interaction, laughs and a ton of bikers with swagger. I highly recommend you getting this book.”
— 5 Stars from DivasoftheSerengeti_Lioness, Goodreads Review
“Another great addition to this series. Good characters and storyline along with some good twists and turns plus some action and suspense. Very enjoyable.”
— 5 Stars from Carol, Goodreads Review
“This was such a fun read. I loved the chaos in the story. I enjoyed Ellie’s attitude and her just living life. Chains and his superstitions make this a really fun Halloween read. Throw in a little suspense and drama and you have Chains and Ellie’s story. This is the Halloween love story people want.”
— 5 Stars from Karen, Goodreads Review
“Loved Chains and Ellie. I really like the members of Kiss of Death. There are so many characters in this book that I want to hear more about.”
— 5 Stars from Joann, Amazon Review
“An entertaining, suspenseful and intriguing romance. Coming from a man named Chains, he’s the sweetest, most shy, tentative, superstitious and adorable guy ever; or maybe it was meeting Ellie that brought out a sensitive side of him. I absolutely loved going on this wild adventure with them.”
— 5 Stars from A.Fernandez, Amazon Review
CONSORTIUM OF DRAGONS (DRAGON LOST 3) by Emily Carrington
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3775

— 4 Stars from Ladnamal, Kobo Review
DOC (DIXIE REAPERS MC 25) by Harley Wylde
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3803
“Wow, this book was wonderful. I loved Doc and Nova’s story so much. The story evolved very well and the chemistry was so so good. Loved their story so much.”
— 5 Stars from Andrea, Amazon Review
“I enjoyed the dynamic between Doc and Nova. They had great chemistry and he was willing to defy his club to ensure that Nova had justice.”
— 5 Stars from Melissa, Amazon Review
“This story is a rollercoaster of action, drama, and raw emotion that will keep you hooked from the first page to the last.”
— 5 Stars from Dawn, Amazon Review
“Doc knocked my socks off! This book kept me engaged from the very first word I read to the very end and left me wishing that there was more. I can’t wait to see what’s next.”
— 5 Stars from Julianna, Amazon Review
“…a great, intriguing, suspenseful story that quickly pulls you in. As always with these guys it’s an age gap that pairs these characters perfectly with all of the chemistry and emotion we love. Nova definitely gets more from the Reaper’s than the help she went there for initially. She gets her man, found family and a whole new life!”
— 5 Stars from GKP2460, Amazon Review
“This action-packed story is compelling and had me all caught up in the characters and drama surrounding them. Harley is an excellent storyteller, and Doc is a well written one with dynamic characters along with a descriptive narrative that had me right there with the characters from start to finish.”
— 5 Stars from Merry Jelks-Emmanuel, Amazon Review
“This has to be one of my most favorite Dixie Reaper books so far. The chemistry is palpable between Nova and Doc. The storyline is great with tension, suspense, non-stop action, and thrills. This is a no-miss read if you enjoy those factors and like books about MC. If you’ve never read one, this is a great one to choose as your first MC read.”
— 5 Stars from Ilse, Goodreads Review
“Nova is courageous, tenacious, and headstrong, fully immersed in seeking justice for her parents. Doc is her calm, quiet opposite—moral, careful, and protective—but from the very start, his genuine care for Nova shines through. Their chemistry is undeniable as they dig deeper into the mystery surrounding her parents’ “accident.” Harley’s writing continues to impress, pulling me in from the first page to the last—I truly didn’t want this book to end.”
— 5 Stars from Alice, Goodreads Review
“A nonstop, nail biting, on the edge of your seat action packed thrilling ride to go on. This is possibly the best book in the series. I’ve enjoyed each of them equally but I absolutely loved this one. Phenomenal story!”
— 5 Stars from Andrea Fernandez, Goodreads Review
“This book is a must read. It’s part of the Dixie Reapers series. This is Doc’s story. Age gap, lots of twists and turns that keeps it interesting, some drama and action, as well as friction between the members. A must read for sure.”
— 5 Stars from Nadine, Goodreads Review

MEDICALLY NECESSARY by Emily Carrington
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3802
“This is a nonstop adventure with drama, danger, grief, romance and mind bending twists and turns. The author makes you feel you are right there in the action.”
— 5 Stars from StarDragon, Amazon Review
“I have had a passion for paranormal werewolves, vampires, and anything paranormal for years. Amir & Oliver took my heart. Emily Carrington did this story justice. I know and understand the D/s lifestyle, so it’s nice to read stories that we can escape into and understand what they are reading due to real-life experiences.”
— 4 Stars from Nicole, Barnes & Noble Review

SPELLBOUND (SPLINTERED BLOODLINES 2) by Mychael Black
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3796
“… I love the love story between both MMCs and how one had a mate previously but had lost him. Honestly I go with vibes and loved the whole vibe of this book.”
— 4 Stars from Jessica P, Amazon Review
“The chemistry between Beau and Garrett crackles with tension and longing. Their dynamic is a slow burn wrapped in sharp edges, and Mychael Black doesn’t shy away from the darker impulses that drive both men. Black masterfully blends paranormal intrigue with emotional depth, crafting a story that’s as seductive as it is suspenseful.”

— 5 Stars from Kindle Customer, Amazon Review
“A solid second entry to this series. The world building for this universe is interesting and the characters continue to be easy to keep track of as they all have distinct personalities.”
— 4 Stars from Emely, Kobo Review
“This is a cat and mouse dance with the perpetrator while Garrett and Beau dance a heated passionate tango conflicting with their natures. This is a tense, intense, hot story that grabs us and won’t let us go because we want to find our way to the end. Well done!”
— 5 Stars from C.B., Barnes & Noble Review
“I have read Mychael Black for years now, and they just get better and better. The story between Detective Beau Kirkland & Garrett Dawson was exciting and beautiful. I love the way Mychael Black intertwines a story that keeps you reading, no matter what is happening in real life… I love fated mates stories, and add in a vampire story, I’m so there.”
— 4.5 Stars from Nicole, Barnes & Noble Review

— 5 Stars from GKP2460, Amazon Review
“With this being the first in a new series I would say that it’s off to a good start. I loved the grittiness of this action-packed MC romance. Dylan’s uncle is a man to be dealt with especially when it comes to Vendetta. He will protect her no matter what. This is definitely a series I will be following.”
— 4 Stars from Doris, Amazon Review
