- May 04, 2026

END OF THE LINE Rail Riders - Book One by Nicky James Release Date: July 28, 2021 Audio Release Date: November 16, 2023 Review Such a well-crafted story. One of my favourite things about Nicky James is her unique storylines. This series follows people who ride the rails, live and work along the way. Creating a found family as they go. Some running, some searching. End of the Line is a tale of two men finding out that what they thought they knew may not be the truth, but knowing without question that they will always have each other's backs. Till the End of the Line. Killian has been riding the rails for a while now, so it doesn’t take much to recognize a newbie. Leo isn’t just new to riding; he’s clearly got secrets. As Killian takes Leo under his wing, they keep moving west, along with their friends, who slowly adopt Leo as one of them. Through complications, quiet nights with shared secrets and a beautifully growing love. It’s a really interesting and engaging story that had me...

But maybe, just maybe, this fling is exactly what they both need to find something real.

REVIEW: Hollow Heart by Eve Holmes (Northern Roots; Atlantic #4)

- May 01, 2026

HOLLOW HEART Northern Roots: Atlantic - Book Four by Eve Holmes Release Date: May 1, 2026 Review This wrecked me! I’m talking, I bawled through the first 50% and continued to tear up off and on throughout the 2nd half. My kryptonite is people who don’t feel worthy, seen, loved, or appreciated. Who don’t believe they will ever find love. And this epic best-friends-to-lovers hit everyone one of those soft spots through Silas. This slow burn (I do mean slow…not a criticism, it’s absolutely gorgeous) follows the life of two best friends in a small town on PEI. Silas doesn’t have it easy. And the only person who really seems to have his back is his dad, until Levi. Teachers, other kids, and even his mom all fail him at EVERY turn. Levi knows how to soothe and help Silas, and no matter what, they are ride or die. Their friendship is beautiful. But then Levi leaves for University, and their lives diverge. And it’s heartbreaking. Then one day, life conspires to bring them back together. ...
