Review 

My Rating - 4 Stars!

Winter's Promise is a fun Omegaverse romance by Giovanna Reaves. 

Brought together by the death of Creed's brother and Winter's best friend, these two men discover they're fated mates. 

Winter's devotion to baby Connor is commendable and just downright swoon worthy. But the connection between Winter and Creed is downright hot! These two are definitely a great couple who know how to sizzle. 

Their story consists of guilt and grief, jealousy, hot sex and a mystery. The suspense is well developed, and definitely fun. I was kept guessing to the end. 

I enjoy the talk of expectations and obligations; an alpha with a beta? I'm hoping this leads to a fun book in the series. 

Overall, I enjoyed Winter's Promise and am excited to read more of this series by Giovanna Reaves.

Review 

My Rating - 4 Stars!

I rarely read supernatural stories, but Bewitching Love is a fun read by Giovanna Reaves. Part of the Vale Valley series, we get to visit this special town.

Ending up in Vale Valley unveils some secrets and danger for Alphonso and Sirius. Of course there's also some romance, which is great between these two, with some instant, all-consuming chemistry!  

There's a whole lot of layers to this tale. Sirius is a witch and ends up in town not knowing anything about being a witch or the supernatural in general. There's suspense, some steam, and some feel good romance. 


New to this series, I was pleased with all the interesting things in this magical town. Bewitching Love is not my usual, but it's peaked my interest in the Vale Valley series.

BLURB

A budding friendship that leads to a one-night stand and a second chance at love.

After the death of his wife, Lucas Hamilton put finding love behind him, his only focus on being there for his young daughter. As the CEO of Hamilton Enterprise, Lucas has more on his plate than he could handle without adding a relationship in the mix. He promised his late wife that when love came around, he would not let it pass him by. Which is why Lucas was shocked to find himself attracted to Tucker Stevens. Does he ignore his attraction or keep the vow he made to his wife?

Tucker Stevens has mourned the death of his wife and daughter for so long that he's forgotten what love is. As an FBI agent, Tucker used work as a way to keep himself busy, forgetting the promise he made to his wife to never give up on love. Even though most of his family and friends are in love, married, and living their lives, he still didn't recognize or believe he had the right to fall in love. That was until Lucas Hamilton who found a way to break through the wall he built around himself.

REVIEW

My Rating - 4 Stars!

His Lover's Vow is an interesting romance by Giovanna Reaves, a new to me author.

I absolutely love the beginning of the book, as the pull between Lucas and Tucker is strong and they each don't know what to do about it. Both men have lost their wives and have never been attracted to a man before. This part is awesome! I love their connection and the will-they-won't-they action.

The second half of the book is all action and suspense, as their lives are in danger. I like this part enough, but it's definitely an abrupt shift in the storyline and the pace.

I adore Lucas's daughter and her relationship to Tucker. It just brings out all the feels.

I will admit to not having read the prior books in the series yet. Yes, I said yet. There are things I find confusing in this story, since I don't know who everyone is. But, this book intrigues me enough that I definitely want to go back and start at book one. For one, the men in this book can get pregnant, yet it is because of science and evolution. It is not an Omegaverse world. I want to start at the beginning and read about the other characters who are mentioned.

I am glad to have found this Giovanna Reaves book, but I would recommend starting at the beginning of the series.
