Cooked Lane Books and Net Galley allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published September 11th.

She loves her father but hates his thieving.  The next thing you know, the man hoarding the jewels is dead and her father is accused of murder...

With her boyfriend trying to recover the gems, her father flirting with jail, and no sign of the hidden jewels, she's got her work cut out for her.  It's a good thing she loves her job.  It's also a good thing she has a cat to help her out. 

Dark Sky Island: A Jennifer Dorey Mystery by Lara Dearman

It all starts when a bunch of bones are found in a cave.  She's sent to get a story.  She gets one, but it's not the one she went for...

Crooked Lane Books and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published September 11th.

She decides to investigate her father's death while she's there.  She doesn't think his death was a fishing accident.  It wasn't but what it was involves the whole island and makes it a very dangerous place to snoop.  Not even the police are safe there.

Another death overshadows the bones and the investigation continues.  The island is dark and dangerous.  Will she and her friends survive?

My Nana was a Free-Range Kid by Nancy Peek Youngdahl

Her Nana was a lot like me when I was young.  I climbed trees, hung out by the creek, rode my bicycle, played in the barn and did anything I could to keep from being bored.  No one worried about me.  Life was different then.

The author shared a copy of this book with me for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can grab a copy now.

Nana climbed trees and hung from them mimicking the trapeze artists in the circus.  When she falls and knocks all the breath out of her, her brother helps her recover.

They also pretended her brother was a lion tamer and she was a lion, but the platform collapsed.

The worst thing they did was make a small fire and cook marshmallows. They thought they put the fire out, but it restarted and burnt the woods.  Never play with fire!

Nana has even more adventures you can read about.  Do you have a free range kid in your household?

When Anthony Rathe Investigates by Matthew Booth

He investigates now because he's driven by guilt.  One of his cases went badly and he can't forgive himself.  So he is going try to find justice for those cases he's asked to help on.

Sparkling Books Limited and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published September 18th.

These are short stories of several cases, all of them sad.  Trying to prove who the real villain is can be hard and unrewarding but Rathe doesn't give up.  He's trying to balance the scale and make his life feel right again.

The stories aren't easy to figure out but Rathe does it.  I don't think I'd like I'd like him breathing down my back either.  Give it a read.  It'll make you think about life...

The Cycle of Harm by M H Snowy

Jeffery is a big mellow man but when he puts the helmet on, he becomes a killing machine...

The author and Goddess Fish Blog Tours allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can buy a copy now.

Montague is a magician and Jeffery's best friend.  He tells him when to wear the helmet, goes into battle with him, and collects a fee from the village elders for saving them.  He uses his magic to make Jeffery forget the battle.  That saves him from guilt and regret.  They travel with a group of berserkers that makes others leave them alone.

Montague also has a traveler with him that presents itself as a boy but is really a girl.  She's also a witch.  What a variety of friends.

There is a warlord who wants that helmet and his men are hunting them.  They have more than one encounter with them and they finally end up in jail.  Where do they go from here?  You'll have to read it and see.

Under a Dark Sky by Lori Rader-Day

She's still lost after the death of her husband.  She decides to go on a trip he had planned before his death.  That was a mistake...

Wm Morrow and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published August 7th.

She anticipates a guest house where she can put the past to bed and move on.  Instead, she finds out she's sharing it with another group and she has a separate suite.  She almost goes right back home.  She should have.  This is a deadly group...

Everybody in this group were friends in college and this is a reunion for them.  They all have secrets, nothing is like what it seems and there is a dead body the first night.  They try to blame it it on her but she doesn't even know them.

With secrets from her husband's past and a killer among them, she better come to terms with things soon or she'll end up being a victim, too...
