Dial L For Lynda had me laughing out loud. Addison and Harley are in their early twenties and their youth is reflected in their sharp, sassy, and hilarious dialogue. They certainly know how to turn a serious situation into an act of comedy.
In addition to the abundance of humour, there is a very good murder mystery behind it all. Harley's life is on the line as she is considered the main suspect. Having little faith that the police will capture the real killer, Addison and Harley take it upon show more themselves to help the investigation along and solve the case.
I loved the romantic interests for the two ladies as well and I can't wait to see how Addison and Detective Jake get on in the next book. Their teasing and arguments are comedic and cute while Harley's relationship with Addison's brother is a little bit more real and grown up. The pair are childhood friends who have fallen in love but need a little push to move out of the friendship zone.
I loved every minute of this book and I can't wait for more.

This review may contain spoilers, so fair warning, upon reading the review.

Introduction
Bound by Dreams is the fifth installment in the "Cauld Ane" series and wow has it been a long while since I have read these books here. But it was so wonderful to return to this world that this author has created. Now I do want to clarify that these books are also under a different author name, I guess the author decided to switch fully to her other pen name, but I don't like the covers so I am sticking show more with these, they just seem to resonate better with the stories themselves if I am being honest. So this story was so wonderful. It did have a couple of plot holes in the romance itself so there were parts that felt a bit rushed but overall was a solid fated mates romance. Its also one of those PNR's that doesn't fully feel like a PNR. It has a more contemporary feel to it with slight supernatural elements mixed in.

Summary
Charlotte Whitmore is a aspiring actress, she has just left a bad relationship and ready to take on someone fresh and new. When she meets a fellow actor, it seems to just work and feel normal again. But when she starts to hear a voice in her dreams, which is of the infamous drummist in a Irish band that she has been fangirling most of her adult life she thinks he can't be real. Until he enters her life and claims that they are mates. Niall knows that Charlotte is his mate, but he must first woo her and convince her they are worth taking a chance on. What starts as a steady friendship turns into something more, but Charlotte's past will come to bite them and soon they will be caught up in a family drama and secrets that neither of them imagined...

My Outlook
This story was so fantastic and highly entertaining. I am so happy that a fellow blogger was able to introduce me to these books here. So thank you Sophia Rose if you are reading this :P So I really loved this one because its literally our couple finding each other from their dreams. I love a good dream walker romance and this author handled this element so well. I do want to address my main issue with the story first before we get to the really solid workings of the book here. What I really struggled with was the heroine, she was a bit flakey when it came to relationships. Yes she is starting to date this fellow actor, but there isn't much spark just a nice attraction. But then her fated mate comes into her life, and they have been sharing dreams and she knows that there is more between them so what does she do? FRIEND ZONE HIM like girl you have been fan girling this man all of your adult life, your dream man comes into your life and wants to be with you forever and you friendzone him. It was just weird and then suddenly she was like lets mate haha There were just some of these relationship plot holes that didn't quite match up with the story. But once they got into the relationship than the rest of the story was super solid which is why its a solid 4 star read. Because even with my issue with the heroine being a bit flakey in the beginning, she does make up for it throughout the rest of the story. Now the hero was just delectable, I just loved him all the way through. We also have a bit of a mystery being introduced into this one and I can't wait to get into the next book so we can see who the 3rd sister is. Definitely intrigued to see where the author is taking this one.

When Adam "Orion" Graves finally meets Raquel "Razzle" Sommers their chemistry could burn up the people standing around them. He the heir apparent to the Primal Howlers MC. She is the little sister to the President of the Dogs of Fire, a Georgia MC. She's in Colorado to go to college.

Now what I really love about this story is not that their's is a hot, burn up the sheets romance. Or that the alpha attitude runs strong in both of them. And the sarcasm...love witty banter. What I really dig show more is that we know she's in college and I just naturally took it for granted it was for some business degree or maybe a political science...I admit, guilty of stereotyping characters. Turns out she's worried about flunking her microbiology exam and worried her thesis research is falling behind. The effects cannabis has on certain childhood diseases.

Like any good MC series we have issues with other MCs. Retribution for harm caused. Someone is fighting cancer and it could change everything. These guys are quick thinking, act even quicker and show no mercy when it comes to protecting what is theirs.

Piper has stated that the next book in the series will be Sundance, Orion's father-Prez of the MC. What I'm really excited about....Wrath, I think he's going to be a beast of a biker. I think this series is off to a great start with this young couple. Smart. Sexy. And ready for whatever gets thrown their way. BRING ON THE HOWLERS!!!! show less

OMG....how do you know an author has you dialed in.....when the hot Alpha MC Prez does something so stupid you almost throw your kindle down to hunt his ass to kick it soundly.

Thorne "Sundance" Graves and Wyatt Davies meet when he is getting chemo and she is taking her dad for his chemo. They talk, flirt....but nothing much more. I mean they are in the middle of a chemo clinic.

Weeks pass after the last time the see one another. Sundance is in remission, Wyatt's father has passed. But the show more sparks are still flying, now just higher than before. Sundance is feeling good and in the mood to conquer Wyatt. But she's not going down without a fight. She doesn't know about the MC culture but what she does know makes her wary. And being that she's the only one left to care for her older, developmentally challenged brother, Teddy....she's not about to go down without a fight.

Go down she does. In flames. Remember that moment I hinted at that made me want to throw my kindle and kick some ass. Yea, well Sundance...oh Sundance, limited information and a hair trigger temper...no a good combination. Is this the end of our couple?

Well you can guess the answer to that. What you won't see coming is a mole in the MC? A betrayal that rocks one of it's long term members. A rebuilding of trust. The start of a new life for Teddy, outside the walls of the special house? And the whispers of a new enemy emerging. Can Sundance and Dimple (his nickname for Wyatt) survive, will she be willing to try a second time?

I'm not telling all but you will enjoy this. show less
