Hunter's Fate by Lynnea Lee

5.0

This book is a good introduction of this connected Xarc'n series set on the mountains. I enjoyed getting to know Sandy & Turr’k as well as briefly getting to know Sandy's friend Morgan who is featured in the next book in this series. This book can work as a standalone as each book features a different couple but it is better when you are already familiar with the world it takes place in. I look forward to reading the rest of the books in the Xarc'n Warriors: Mountains series as well as more from the original Xarc'n Warriors series in the future.

Caught by the Lumberjack by Annee Jones

This was another fun book in the interconnected series Loving A Mountain Man as well as being part of the multi author Sexy Lumberjacks Series. It works well as a standalone since all the books from both series each revolve around different couples. I enjoyed getting to know Clementine and Vaughn in this story and thought they made a fun couple. I look forward to reading more books from both these series.

Grave Cattitude: A Pawsitively Purrfect Match in Zero, Kansas by Pepper McGraw

• Loveable characters? Yes

5.0

I really enjoyed this story and seeing Morana (Necromancer Witch) & Blade (Vampire) finally get together. This story can be read as a standalone but works better when you have read some of the other books in the series (I have only read the previous two but have more on my TBR list) since you will have a bit more background knowledge about some of the other characters mentioned. I also really enjoyed all the cats in this story including Neferkitty (Blade familiar) and the introduction of Schrödinger (Morana's familiar). I look forward to reading more from this series in the future.

Chapters 25 - 28: I am really enjoying this series and thought the school festival storyline that is going on is interesting and am glad we are getting to know some of the side characters better. I look forward to reading the next volume. 

Tormented Mountain Man by Lilah Hart

lighthearted fast-paced

4.0

This is the third book in this set of standalone but interconnected instalove short stories set in the small town of Seduction Summit, North Carolina and focuses on Hunter & Joely but also has glimpses of the couples from the previous two stories in this series since the story starts at Memphis & Mallorie's wedding. I look forward to reading about Joely's friend Rachel in the next story.

Kakuriyo: Bed & Breakfast for Spirits, Vol. 9 by Midori Yuma, Waco Ioka

5.0

Chapters 45 - 49: This volume was fun and I am enjoying getting to see more of the various people from Tenjin-ya as well as the newer characters from the rival inn. I am enjoying the slow progress in the relationship between Aoi and Ōdanna as the series continues and I am looking forward to seeing what happens in the next volume.
