A missing woman. A controlling husband. An escaped convict. What do these things have in common? Charley Davidson.

Book three became available and we jumped right in. Reyes is torturing a very sleep deprived Charley who needs to find a missing woman before it’s too late.

I really enjoyed the short storyline with Rocket’s asylum and the bikers. It helped the story to seem more like a day in the life of an average person, even if that person is a grim reaper. As always the mystery is served up with a lot of humor. With what could easily be considered dark subject matter Charley is a breath of fresh air. We’re excited to continue the series.

Charley, Cookie, and Reyes are back! This smart and sassy series doesn’t disappoint with its fifth book. As with all Charley books the suspenseful storyline is filled with humorous hi-jinx and a lot of sexual tension. The star of the show is Charley, but her supporting characters make the story more enjoyable overall.

With a serial killer on the loose, Charley is trying to prevent him from killing again, especially when her sister appears to be his next target. With the ongoing arsonist case, Charley is staying busy. This hilarious tale will have you in stitches and trying to solve the “who dun it” throughout the book.

Like all Charley books we’re chomping at the bit for the next installment.

My favorite grim reaper and the literally smoking hot Son of Satan himself are back in another great laugh until your sides hurt mystery.

This book, while filled with laughter, took a more serious tone as well. Charley’s main case, a woman who’s convinced some one is trying to kill her, was a bit more serious of a case than she’s taken in the past. I love this aspect of the books because it makes things a bit more serious, but I wasn’t ready for the twist that the story took near the end.

Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet is a high speed, full of twists book that will leave you begging for more!

This was probably my least favorite book in the series so far. While all my favorite things in this series were there, the crew being trapped on a convent was a bit stale. Charley, Reyes, Cookie, Ubie and the rest of the crew are all working together, trying to figure out how to defeat the hell hounds that keep the sacred ground surrounded.

While the story has plenty of conflict, most Charley stories have a bit more action, and a lot more laughs. Out of all of the books this one was the most serious, and while the subject matter was a bit deeper than usual, the story didn’t move along as quickly as usual.

While I enjoyed the story moving forward, it felt like it took a long time for the story to really get rolling and not just Charley describing how sexy Reyes is, which was even more repetitive in this book, almost like Jones wasn’t sure how to move the story along, so five paragraphs describing Reyes’ eyelashes would suffice.

I loved that Cookie and Uncle Bob’s storyline move forward, and the moment was my favorite part of the book itself. We’re looking forward to the next book, but hope that it moves more in the direction of the Charley Davidson we know and love.

I think this is my favorite Charley Davidson book yet! In true form Charley is back with her sassiness and humor, solving murders and trying to avoid the hell hounds that have been released. I love the books because the characters are well developed and grow throughout it book. Charley is continually learning new things, and becoming more mature, and more comfortable as the overall story progresses. Her and Reyes’ relationship is so sweet, but also tantalizing. While parts of the books do get repetitive, we know that Reyes is the Son of Satan, and I don’t think the same description for him is warranted in every single book, sometimes multiple times throughout, I understand that for some people they may not be listening to the books in order.

The narrator of these audio books really brings the characters to life. While we try not to listen too long before bed, we often say “just a few more minutes” into the early morning hours and then spend the day wishing we went to bed on time.

I truly enjoy these books and don’t look forward to catching up to the latest releases and having to wait to get the next in the series. I am excited to see how the hell hound story line plays out and see what the future holds for Charley and Reyes.

I love Charley and her misadventures but the first half of the book came off as more erotic than usual and while we (my husband and I) don’t mind some intense scenes it seemed like that’s all the first half of the book was. Let’s get more into the meat and potatoes of the story.

Charley, Reyes, and the rest of the gang are doing what they do best. Solving mysteries, avoiding real issues in relationships, and trying to prevent the destruction of the world as we know it. Like most Charley books, we have the small PI related storylines as well, and this one involves Amber.

While we’ve finally caught up with the series, I’m not as excited as I thought I would be in the end. While I understand the cliffhangers make sure that you grab the next book, the first few of the series didn’t leave so much of what has become the main storyline out there, and gave the reader a bit more satisfying endings. While we can’t wait for the next installment, I hope that it gives us a bit more information, and maybe a few updates on Beep.

Charley is back, but not quite herself. Hit with a bout of amnesia, Charley is living in Sleepy Hollow, New York, but doesn’t remember anything about her past life. Reyes, Cookie, Uncle Bob, and the rest of the group have of course followed Charley, but are trying to give her time to remember on her own.

Even as Janie, Charley is pulled to to Reyes even though she doesn’t know why, or what he is. As usual, Charley finds herself in trouble, but with their connection severed, Reyes isn’t around to help.

This book was a nice change from the pace, and was a great way to break up the same story line. With Charley’s amnesia, the descriptions of Reyes weren’t as monotonous as they were in previous books. Even with Charley not remembering who she is or what she does, she finds herself neck deep in poltergeists, and departed. She finds her way back to herself in the end. Learning more about herself, and Reyes, left us wondering how the next book will tie things up, and if Charley will share her new information with Reyes, or if she’ll keep her new secrets to herself.

Last week I went into our local library to renew the first Harry Potter book for my seven year old. The librarian said “I’ve been waiting to see you! I think you’ll really like this book!” She’s never steered me wrong, so I checked it out and headed home.

The book immediately piqued my interest, even just reading the inside flap. Can you imagine a world where Hitler won? Where the Nazi Youth is not something we see in black and white on TV, but something that still exists, and all children are expected to participate in? Neither could I, but for Yael that is the world she lives in. The book is not set in our time, but a few years after World War II. In an alternate ending where Hitler wins and joins forces, not with Russia, but with Japan, conquering most of Europe and Asia for their play at world dominance. Enough with the history though, let’s get to the story itself.

Yael, survivor of horrible things, trained assassin and now part of the resistance has a very special set of skills that makes her the perfect person to end Hitler’s life. Every year, to celebrate the success of the Great War, Germany and Japan host a motorcycle race from Germania (formerly Berlin) to Tokyo. Posing as former victor, Adele, Yael must win the race to be invited to the exclusive Victor’s Ball to take her shot at Hitler.

The story takes so many twists and turns through. The characters are well developed, and even those that are supposed to be the villains are easy to like, and hope that they have a change of heart, or are secretly part of the resistance as well. The story did lag in places, but quickly picked back up and moved forward, giving us brief pieces of Yael’s history through the thousands of miles of the race.

As always, I don’t want to spoil it, but make sure you have book two waiting (my library doesn’t have this yet!) because after the ending you’re going to want to jump right back into Yael’s world to find out what happens next.
