Synopsis
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; in the sure and certain hope of the Resurrection to eternal life.
Four caskets. Two bodies.
Jessica and Jude Day witness their funeral and that of their parents a few yards away from mourning family and friends. Stripped of the only life they’ve ever known, the Days say goodbye to San Francisco forever.
Six months later, two thirty-year-old misfits with elite self-defense skills and penchants for alcohol, sex, and trouble arrive like an earthquake to Peaceful Woods, a retirement community in Omaha, Nebraska, that thrives on rules and gossip. Welcome home, Jackson and Jillian Knight.
Jackson celebrates his new beginning by embracing his job and wiping his cavalier past clean with a temporary oath of celibacy. But Jillian’s past is branded into her soul—the deaths, the insanity, Dr. Luke Jones, and the need to make her lovers bleed. Her chance for redemption comes in the form of a next door neighbor, one Senior Master Sergeant Monaghan. He’s sexy, dangerously alluring, and riddled with emotional issues from years of service. He’s also … So. Damn. Grumpy.
Their mission is simple: Let go, start over, don't kill anyone, and pray that nobody wakes the dead.

Kat's Review
Going into this book I didn't know what to expect..But it wasn't long before I fell in love..
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; in the sure and certain hope of the Resurrection to eternal life. Four caskets. Two bodies.
From this point onwards twin thirty year old siblings Jessica's and Judes life will forever be changed. Months later they arrive in a new destination called 'Peaceful Woods' leaving the world as they knew it behind. Jackson and Jillian are somewhat relatively younger than the other residents, other than forty something AJ their not so friendly neighbour who lived in the unit beside theirs.
Jillian and AJ butted heads as soon as they met. He couldn't work her out.
She looks like one of them superhero girls straight off the movie screen
Aj Had at least a dozen more accurate ones: Black widow, serpent, man -eater, mindfuck, wicked, twisted, deceitful, Satan...
Nothing is what it seems where Jessica and Jude are concerned, they were members of an elite group where they were experts in two areas; combat and survival. These two are such complex characters, with such unpredictable tendencies. Nothing is black and white in their worlds.
Jillian Knight was clearly a hundred ways fucked-up, and the warning sirens blared in AJ's head every time he neared her proximity, but he was deaf to their warning.
Jillian is such a fascinating slightly unhinged character. She needs to make a man bleed during sexual intercourse. She also needs to be in control at all times. Always on top, never on the bottom. Was it only me that thought she was a vampire?? Ok then!!
How could this not be a five star read from me? It ticked ALL my boxes, unique storyline never to be matched, tough as nails heroine, sassy mouthed, sexy as hell, this had me swooning, giggling and falling in love with these characters like no others.
I can't even write up a normal review for this one because my words will not do this book justice, but if you're looking for something a wee bit different then look no further than this book!! Highly recommend!!
MIDDLE OF KNIGHT (JACK AND JILL #2)
TITLE: Jack & Jill
SERIES: Jack & Jill Book#2
AUTHOR: Jewel E. Ann
GENRE: Romance
PUBLISHED: October 8th, 2015
Synopsis
The living seek forgiveness. The dead seek revenge.A first love.
A last breath.
A haunting past.
Armed with a sinful past and an equally sinful body, Jackson Knight absolves his vow of celibacy to pursue Sergeant Monaghan’s unsuspecting—older—housekeeper.
Ryn Middleton, on the cusp of turning forty with a snarky daughter, a killer dog, and an abusive ex-husband, finds Jackson’s advances humorous and unbelievable. After intense negotiations including Vera Wang, Ed Sheeran, and sex four times a day, Ryn accepts Jackson’s marriage proposal on their first date.
What could possibly go wrong?
While struggling to lay claim to the woman of the dreams he never had, Jackson is forced to deal with a grief-stricken Jillian trying to hold on to her past without letting go of her future—the doctor who took her heart and the Sergeant who gave her a new one.
Beyond the hope for light, lies the middle of darkness, the illusion of truth, and a haunting past.*WARNING - Contains explicit language and sexual content and subject matter pertaining to physical/sexual abuse.
Kat's Review
BOOM!! Two five star reads back to back, both books Unputdownable, Undeniably Unique, Understandably one of my most favourite reads of 2019!!
Both books killed me in completely different ways, the first book was sort of light and fluffy, full of giggles and a new love, the second book utterly gutted me, both these books got their hooks into me straight away, as soon as I started the first book I was a goner, life was put on hold, minutes, seconds, hours ceased to exist.
I’ve giggled, I’ve swooned, I’ve had my heart broken, I’ve loved.
If you've not read this series, seriously get your one click on, the best way to enjoy it is back to back, forget netflix binge, read binge is the only way to go!! Like me I swear you'll love this series, these siblings will crawl in your hearts and leave their marks there!! They are my two most favourite characters of all time!!

DAWN OF FOREVER (JACK & JILL #3)
TITLE: Jack & Jill

PUBLISHED: December 2nd, 2017
Synopsis
'til death do us part. Aric James Monaghan promised Jillian Knight Portland. With a heavy heart and a light bag, she travels to the West Coast for the man she loved. In a blink her worlds collide, holding her hostage to a past filled with lies, deceit, and revenge. Four Caskets Two Bodies It all started with a boy and a girl-their tragic love story is shared through the eyes of the enemy. Every word fades dreams and shatters memories as life slips away. Jillian needs a Knight, Jessica needs a miracle, and together they need a savior.
** This book contains explicit language and sexual content.
All the stars to affinity and back!!
This book gutted me and slowly put me back together, no other books compare to this series, like a drug addict I absorbed these words in record time. Book after book after book, three that quickly became my most all time favourites.
I never wanted it to end, it came full circle in this very last book and left me sitting here with a bittersweet feeling and tears running down my face, shrouded in such sadness with turning that last page and having to say goodbye to these characters.
These characters will always leave their mark on my heart, how could you not love each and everyone of them?
If you've not read this series (like me) because obviously (I live under a rock) go one clicking, this series has everything you could ask for, it has ticked every single box of mine!! A roller coaster of goodness!!
