Mya has always believed in angels, but following the death of her father, she now thinks they're all pretty useless. Her devoted and determined guardian angel is hoping to change all that--especially after Mya unwittingly succumbs to the seduction of his dark, fallen rival.

My Thoughts

Moonlit Wings #1Cemetery Moon was well crafted and a delightful read.The story really draws you in from the very beginning.Mya is from a small town where she and her father live. Suddenly her father passes away and is left with know one.By her father dying so soon in life has tested her faith in God and its no longer a believer she is very angry and lashes out of the unfairness of it all throughout the book.I believed Mya to be very selfish at times also a little bit of a spoiled brat but at the same token when she loves she loves with all her heart in.

With her faith in a spiral downfall she must pick up the pieces and go forward.With the her father burial now behind her she must figure out what to do now and go on about life.Her fathers attorney suddenly appears to speak to her about her father will and final wishes. She is surprised but all of this and thinks it must be all a simply mistake. She sold everything just to pay for his funeral.

Mya's attorney is one heck of a good looking handsome man. So dark and brooding in his looks. Mya learns much about her father that she has never known and starts to doubt that her life has been nothing but filled with secrets. But a unbelievable truth revealed about him shocks her to her core her father was a very wealthy man and has left her millions of dollars and a piece of property that is close to her fathers heart.

We journey along with Mya from here on out with her new love interest in her fathers attorney and her troubled time where she goes on a journey of self discovery.I was amazed about all the twists and turns this story brought forth.So many unanswered questions that needed to be answered.Why her father held all his wealth a secret all there lives?The love triangle that unfolds later in the story and where that might lead to.I have to say this story was very enjoyable .So many things going on just drawing you into this story keeping your interested page after page to see what happens next. Some of the secrets revealed where quite a shocker and almost unbelievable.Making you choose to believe or not to believe. This story was a breath of fresh air bringing mystery and love and heart break. Having the reader laugh and cry through out it's story. All made up of the things a reader loves.Looking forward to the next book it's series to see what happens next. Wishing Beth much success with her well crafted series. I am sure it's going to be a home run for her. Loved it and a recommended read to all...

Blurb

In this sizzling romance, Donna Kauffman takes readers on a seductive ride deep undercover with a man who will ignite the flames of your heart.

There aren’t many places to get a cool drink in the middle of the New Mexico desert, and divorced bar owner Blue Delgado likes it that way. Little to no competition means that she gets to call the shots: her cantina, her rules. But there’s something about her new cook that sets her senses tingling—and it’s not just the way Diego fills out his jeans. When an old friend warns her that her life is in danger, Blue realizes she doesn’t know anything about her new employee—except that Diego excites her to the core. Could a man she is so attracted to be trying to kill her?

All Diego Santerra has are his instincts, honed to precision as a member of an elite tactical squad. He keeps no personal ties that could compromise his missions: no family, no friends. His work is his life, and his new case is no exception. But the moment Diego lays eyes on the woman he is assigned to protect, he realizes that everything is about to change. As trained killers set their sights on Blue, Diego knows it’s going to take everything he has to keep her alive—and to make her love him.

My Thoughts and Review 

I have to start off my saying its been awhile since I have read any Donna Kauffman books but, recently found this series and loved it so I had to read the whole series.Donna is an amazing author as she writes light fun  and interesting reads.

This book in part is about and elite group of men and women who work for a government agency in secret  when I mean secret I mean Top secret.There job is very dangerous.

This story grabbed my interest from the very beginning and I could not wait to dive in. I had wanting to read Diego's story for the longest time especially after reading the other books with him in them. He's just yummy! One very hot warrior to boot !

Diego is sent to guard Blue Delgado and poses as a cook.Blue is the owner of a bar slash restaurant.What Blue does not  know is that she has become wrapped up in a dangerous game where the bad guys what to use her for leverage against her father so he won't testify in court against the bad guys.Blue is oblivious to any of this while Diego tries to protect her.

I enjoyed this story .It had a good plot enough romance and a little bit of danger going on in it to keep your interested.Blue was a tough chick and her personality showed which made her fun to read about.She had quick whit and a sharp tongue and also new how to shoot and rode a Harley.But, at the same time unaware of how beautiful and desirable she was.

Diego the hardened warrior sent to protect daddy's princess.But, Blue is not at all how he imagined and is thrown off his guard from the very beginning.The sparks flew between the couple from the very first meeting.Even Blue new something was there just could not pin point what it was exactly.But, Diego has no time for romance he is there to do a job and keep her safe and knowing its going to be hard and torturous to keep his hands off of her.

The suspense full tale was a light fun read.Diego is sexy and oh so handsome but, he has a past that is gruesome and dangerous as is part of his job.But, now he thinks is undeserving of love.But, this hard warrior will need a strong women to stand beside him and Blue is just that person.I sensed Diego's pain even though he wasn't looking for love he may as well just found it .He has so long kept no attachments to anyone feeling they might be hurt because of him and his job.And he is so alone and yet somewhat happy still.He wants to be loved by someone he just doesn't know it.

As this is story is part of  a series we are graced with some of the other characters from Diego's team making this story even better and more suspenseful.Fast paced read that will keep you turning the pages just to see what happens next.Secrets will come to life.And Blue will need a big strong someone to protect her and be there for the most shocking secret that will come to life.Will these two independent people learn to let down there guard just a little bit enough to find a little bit of happiness and love ?

A really excellent read.and is recommended to all !

Description


 In a sizzling romance that’s both suspenseful and deeply moving, Donna Kauffman fans the flames of passion into an inferno of uncontrollable desire.

Wearing jeans, boots, and a reckless, knowing grin, T. J. Delahaye is six feet and seven inches of pure danger. As a covert agent, T. J. saves people for a living. But when he tumbles down a mountain to rescue a wayward hiker, it’s T.J. who needs a helping hand. He falls—hard—for a gorgeous goddess named Jenna whose strength and fierce determination matches his own.

Tormented by the demons of her past, Jenna King once called herself an elite firefighter. She’s nobody’s damsel in distress, but now survival means joining forces with T.J.—and soon sparks are flying between them. Though Jenna has known as many wild men as wildfires, this maverick just may be the one to heal her heart and teach her the dark, secret thrill of surrender.

Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from these Loveswept titles: Deep Autumn Heat, Callie’s Cowboy, and About Last Night.



My Thoughts and Review 

I really enjoyed this story ! This has been such a great series.I have to say out of the series this story was the best for me.I just loved T.J. and Jenna's story.

Jenna and T.J ended up at the same rehab center and neither of them met before they checked out. Jenna was recovering from burns and injuries that she had gotten when trying to put out a forest fire.Both these characters have the same personality both stubborn and both having very strong opinions and yet are both very driven people and both have jobs that are very dangerous. So much in common...


The couple meet by accident when Jenna is out for a hike and slips down and mountain.She is trying to prove to herself that she will be able to go back to work but,physically she is not up to par and she knows it and has doubts that she will ever be able to return to the job she loves most.T.J wants to come to the rescue.


T.J is thinking he will rescue the damsel in distress but, she wants no help from him.Because this is what T.J. does for a living saves people he felt he must and he cannot walk away and leave her there.But, instead of helping T.J. takes a header down the mountain and now the have two of them are in a compromising position.Will he need the saving instead of doing the saving ?


Danger is lurking for the couple as a storm is coming.They need to save themselves !



These character's were a blast Jenna was one feisty mouthy chick.Some what of a hard ass but, having her own reasons for being so.She comes off that way but, she really  just has a protective barrier up.We do see a softer side of her once she starts to unload some guilt.T.J. one of my favorite guys of the governments elite team.He has been a loner for so long you feel his loneliness but with his job he has felt he needed to be that way.T.J. even considers his co-workers like family but never really letting them get to close.But, after meeting Jenna he know things are about to change.

T.J. and Jenna I believe were put in each others paths and were meant to meet one another. T.J. even though the job has made him hard he has a softer loving side we see this as the story unfolds.I believe that they met just so he could heal Jenna he knows what it's like to live with regret and pain and suffering maybe they need one another just to heal from old wounds. The couple make a strange new friend throughout the story that probably will amaze some.And the danger they go to save there new friend has you in amazement !

Just a great enjoyable love story packed with a bit of suspense.  The camaraderie between these characters is what made this story work for me and made it so much fun.Great characters and a great plot. Two people who were destined to be together but, neither expecting or looking to find love need the healing that must come first before there can be love that lasts a lifetime..This dangerous tale was filled with twists and turns and the ending has you wondering if there will be a happy ending after all ?

A recommend read to all those looking for a fun read and a bit of suspense !

Excerpt

Matt was fed, bathed and snuggled into bed early. Rachel dropped off a scented candle as a gift, saying something about romance and ambience so Annie lit that and placed it on the chest of drawers next to the bed. With clean sheets and the bedroom curtains very slightly open, she stood back and admired her pretty bedroom. 
With time to spare, she dropped a thick towel on the bathroom floor and edged her way into the deep, warm bathwater and laid back, closing her eyes. Swooshing the perfumed bubbles over her breasts, she enjoyed the silence and the feeling of the ripples on her skin.
Mike wouldn’t be back for a little while and with that thought, she slid her hands under the water and moved them down to the inside of her thighs. Annie, like many other army wives, had discovered the wonders of playing with herself. It was something that was much needed to get through the long weeks and months apart and ease the sexual frustration. It was also about the need of touch, the need to feel something. It was either that or an affair, which also happened many times on camp and not necessarily with other men. Annie knew exactly what area to touch and how to touch herself depending on her mood and need. Tonight she felt horny.
