Review of Cards of Love: Wheel of Fortune by Ella Fox Chloe and Jackson's fathers are best friends and neighbors, so you would have thought these two would be as close as siblings or best friends. Nope. Chloe took one look at the boy who had a mother that loved him and she decided she hated him. And so the entirety of their lives were spent with Jax trying to get her to smile with one outlandish prank or another, and Chloe frowning and throwing a tantrum after. Until she was 19 and the town psychic read her her fortune and set Chloe's bratty little head on straight. Two years later, she's back in town, a changed woman. Is Madam Aria and the Wheel of Fortune card's prediction going to come true? Is Jax truly her soulmate from each and every life they've lived in each other's orbits? Or is it too late in this life for the would be lovers? I love the idea of this story, and do definitely believe in soulmates, but I gotta admit that Chloe's character tur...

Review of Cards of Love: Queen of Wands by Suzanne Halliday Micki Davies is a widowed mother of adult twin men who runs a successful shop, Queen of Wands. She's outgoing and vibrant, and it's these qualities that catch David Allyn's eye when he wanders into her shop armed with a Daddy Do list from his daughter. David is a single father of a wonderful daughter, Emily, who's sent her dad off to her favorite store to buy some stuff for her new off-campus house. When a beautiful blonde woman helps him out with his Daddy Do list, he's instantly smitten and just knows his life will never be the same. I loved Suzanne Halliday's take on love after 40. Not only are Micki and David seriously hot together, they're just so sweet and swoony that I quite simply fell in love with the two of them. The old saying, "the best waits for last" is completely appropriate here as they find that sometimes you just have to wait until you've lived life a little l...

Title: Cards of Love: Queen of Wands Author: Suzanne Halliday Genre: Romance (novella) Release Date:  October 26, 2018 Life is unpredictable and what the cards read for each of us changes like the weather forecast. When David Allyn's daughter asked him to stop at a specialty store for her, he thought it would be a simple errand. Fate had other plans. Clueless about mysticism, magic, and fantasy; he wasn't quite sure what to make of a store that carried tarot cards, cupid sprinkles, and mystical looking decor. The Queen of Wands store was only half as fascinating as it's owner, Micki Davies. Gold Star widow Micki Davies is the breath of fresh air David didn't realize he needed. The quirky, free-spirited shop owner fascinates him like no one ever has. Humor, instant attraction, and the kind of desire that leaves them both weak in the knees join together with destiny to weave a charming tale of love at every age. Trusting his instinct, he picked up one of t...

And for that entire time I waited for him, knowing that once he was released, things needed to be said, the truth needed to be spoken. And that day was today.
