Review: Wishes & Wings by Nina Lane (Birdsong #3)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Give Me Books Promotions.

Though I can envision a life without him, it's not one I would pick--if I had the choice. I will always, forever, endlessly, throughout time and across universes...choose him.

My heart. My poor, bruised and battered heart. After everything Nina Lane put it through with her Birdsong trilogy, I have two words for her: thank you. Nell Fairchild and Darius Hawke's love story consumed me. Spanning three books, Lane maintained a steady pace throughout, weaving a story that had my thoughts ensnared and my emotions entangled. There was no resisting this tale of love, family, and intrigue, and now, with the release of its conclusion, Wishes & Wings, everything comes to a head. Secrets will be uncovered and choices must be made--but at what cost to Nell and Darius?

If there is one series that I hope my fellow readers will pick up this year, it's Birdsong. If you're familiar with Nina Lane's writing, this is her at her best; if you've yet to read something of hers, I highly encourage you to read this, beginning with Sparrow & Hawke, then Feather & Flame, and Wishes & Wings. Prepare to become emotionally invested as you get swept away with Lane's words. Yes, Nell and Darius get their happily-ever-after, but it's one that they had to fight for--one that they had to believe they deserved. If I could give Wishes & Wings more than five-plus stars, I would, but I'll have to settle for that since that's as high as I can go with my rating system. Oh, who am I kidding? All the stars for this book and this series! One of 2022's best!

Release Blitz: Saved by Hazel James

Saved (Battles #2) by Hazel James Release Date: June 21, 2018 About Saved Leilani Moretti Life is out to get me.  Humvee accident that took my right hand? Strike one.  Cancer three years later that stole my breasts and hair? Strike two.  An overbearing mother who seems to think I’m twelve, not twenty-seven?  Yeah, I’m out of there.  I thought moving to Oklahoma would give me a fresh start. I hoped life would finally cut me some damn slack. But between the inept people at the VA hospital and a boss who’s hell-bent on fixing me, I just want to be left alone. Haven’t I been through enough already? Clay Prescott Joining the Army and deploying to Afghanistan? Hard. Kicking an alcohol addiction and starting a business combining fitness and mental health? Harder. Worth it? Hell yes.  Battles, my gym, has been so successful that I hired a new employee—a veteran herself—to help me open a second location. And that’s when it all goes to hell. Everything

Blue Skies (Blue Skies #1) by Marie Sinclair Release Date: October 11, 2023 About Blue Skies Greg loves his job as a flight attendant. If only his love life could make him as happy, he’d be all set. Asexual and HIV-positive, Greg has had a series of untrustworthy boyfriends who saw him as a challenge or told him they could accept his sexuality and status. Until they couldn’t. Still reeling from his latest breakup, Greg’s romantic heart beats a little faster when he meets Holden at a club, even though his brain whispers caution. For Holden, relationships are something he can’t afford. He’s been in the closet his entire adult life because it could cost him his job if anyone finds out he’s gay. At forty-eight, hook-ups, one night stands, and quickies in a bathroom are as good as it gets for him. It’s all he’s looking for when he goes to Neon. Instead, he finds Greg. Drawn to each other from the start, the two experience a bit of a bumpy take-off. But then Holden ends up on Greg
