| "This book was fantastic. The dialogue is snappy...The flow was perfect. It grabbed me quickly and had me focused on it to the exclusion of everything else. I would gladly read anything else from this author..Read this book even thought at the end you might wonder about the state of the world...an extremely readable novel that will keep you interested until the very last word. If I could give this more than a five I would." (5 of 5 rating) |
My Book Carvings
| " it is great seeing a male romance writer. I think that Davis has a real talent for writing romance. He has a way of looking at romance that only a man can. It is truly a unique book and Davis is a unique writer to the genre." 5/5 stars |
Long and Short of It
| "This is definitely a must read. Mr. Davis has penned an engaging romantic thriller that keeps you wondering what will happen next (and how will the already tortured hero handle it). Then to add another layer, Mr. Davis utilizes his military knowledge to add another element of realism that this reviewer hasn't seen in a long time. If you like a story with a mix of secrets, mystery and military men, and that's a constant on the edge of your seat kind of read, this is your kind of book. (4/4 stars) |
| "The tension builds to a stunning conclusion. Most likely, the reader will rethink his or her own notion of right and wrong. This book is a winner", (Reviewers Top Pick, 5 of 5 rating) |
| "I would strongly recommend this book to all that enjoy romance, as well as a masterful plot. Michael Davis is a great new author. I hope he has many more books to come.. (4/4 stars) |

Stories to touch the heart and mind
| "... It is so well-written that I just got lost in each page. Eric is such a likeable and refreshing character that just reaches out and touches the heart. Sam is a strong leading lady in all her actions. I thought she was a great asset to the story. I could not help but feel the emotions that Eric faced with Karen. I can tell that Davis did thorough research in composing this read. He instills mystery and a touch of romance into this delightful read that makes it a keeper of a hit. This is an absolutely wonderful tale with secrets galore, a bit of deception and a smidgen of romance that keeps the pages turning.." (5 of 5 rating) |
| "Mr. Davis delivers a tale full of secrets, intrigue and betrayal while still managing to weave in enough romance to satisfy any reader of the genre. In this haunting and powerful novel we see things through the eyes of our hero and it's a most refreshing change. With a clear and succinct voice we experience that first feeling of love and romance from the perspective of the male lead, making it a unique novel in it's own right." (5 of 5 rating) |

| "... Make sure you have several hours and a box of Kleenex nearby because you won't want to put it down until the very last page. Davis does a splendid job of developing his characters and bringing together several intricately intertwined plot points. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you will definitely be left with a new perspective on recent global occurrences which Davis has eerily foreshadowed...I highly recommend the book to any reader – whether you love romance, action, mystery, or nonfiction genres. Its appeal is universal and it has something compelling to offer anyone who reads it." |
| "... This is one hell of a good book! My highest recommendation! I give this book 5 Stars! This gripping story is fast paced and thoroughly enjoyable. Davis' characters are as captivating as the story is interesting and exciting. I especially loved the huge dark twist, and love it when an author is sharp enough to keep me guessing until the very last page." |
| "Once again, Davis weaves a story of intrigue, mystery, and suspense which keeps the reader guessing until the end. Complicated plot lines and good characterization are what define a Davis novel and these elements have been amply supplied in Forgotten Children. For a good read which will hold your interest until the last page and alternately makes you gasp, shed a tear, and cry out in indignation, Forgotten Children fits the bill." |
| "Forgotten Children jars the reader from thinking this is just another mystery, to an overt awareness that this type of activity could actually happen. With studied accuracy and precision, Davis lays down the plot in such a way that the reader descends deeply into this mesmerizing story. The book is difficult to set aside, and even more difficult to forget..\the reader will remember the theme of this potent story for days to come", (Reviewers Top Pick, 5/5 stars) |
| "The plot is a complicated page-turner that keeps the book in your hand until the very last word. The reason? The exquisite writing style. Davis writes with a sense of knowledge and insight. You have the eerily peaceful setting, the well described characters with strongly felt emotions, and a true evil lurking in the background. And ultimately, you know that the one person who can help is going to be the heroine... I honestly believe that the two stories I've read by Davis are as good (possibly verging better in a romantics opinion) than those of some of today's great fiction writers.", 4/4 stars |
| "This is one suspense novel you won’t want to miss. Forgotten Children has a well developed story line, with just the right amount in intrigue to keep you hooked all the way through. The characters are very well developed, and you’ll find yourself both loving and hating them as you read. Most importantly, when you get to the end you’ ll find it to be a very satisfying read (and if your anything like me you’ll also be looking for Davis’s next novel)." |

| "Davis has once again written a top-notch thriller. He starts out with a bang, then steps back and slowly reels the reader into a story both believable and otherworldly.

| "Blind Consent is a riveting thriller that will hold you captive from start to finish! Set in a small, impoverished Shenandoah Valley town, Blind Consent holds you on the edge of the mystical while setting in motion an intriguing plot twisted nicely with a touch of romance. Again I do hesitate to call what Mr. Davis writes romance, but it doesn't matter because romance readers will not be disappointed by what he has delivered.", 4 of 4 stars |
| "... Full of twists, turns and an ending you don’t see, I was blown away by the sheer scope of BLIND CONSENT. The characters are imaginative, multifaceted and intriguing. Mr. Davis does a masterful job telling the hidden story behind the breathtaking Tanglewood Falls... If you enjoy a story that keeps you guessing from start to finish, characters that intrigue you and a storyline that delivers heart pounding twists and turns, then grab BLIND CONSENT. You won’t be disappointed. " 4/5 stars |
| "Forgotten Children is a page-turning read. I thought the premise and plot was constructed very well. The blending of the suspense and intrigue, along with the couple of Sara and Mark, was balanced where I was completely drawn into the storyline. I love how the moments between Sara and Mark transpire as they try to work around their schedules when she ovulates. It makes the couple appear life-like and real in so many ways. Michael Davis creates a splendid read that kept me captivated. He does a superb job in the way he fashions the story with the disease affecting the children, not to mention the older people. It is on the edge of your seat entertainment. The cast of characters make this a powerful story that thoroughly engages beyond words.", 5/5 stars |

| "a story full of hidden nuances, twists and turns that keep you going “OH MY GOD!” . . I was glued to the pages and tried to figure out the mystery of Spenser Lake when the authors would flip the script and twist it so you are scrambling to see what and where the story will take you. With some wonderful multi-dimensional characters, mystery and some sexual tension sprinkled within the pages, the authors deftly weave a spell around the readers’ as they try to navigate the VEIL OF DECEPTION that covers Spenser Lake and its residents., Run, don’t walk, to pick up the latest book from these talented authors and be prepared to get lost in the mystery of Spenser Lake.", 4.5/5 stars |

| "ESSENCE will keep you highly entertained from start to finish....Michael W. Davis is a masterful storyteller who continues to keep the reader highly entertained with his stories. With each book this author delivers to his readers, he captivates you from start to finish with a few intriguing twists that leave you breathless. ESSENCE is a nice, short read that will leave you eager for more. I hope this author comes back to this little area of the world he created and shows us more fun in space. If you haven’t read one of Mr. Davis’s stories then grab ESSENCE and settle in for a fun filled romp in outer space. " |
| "The tension escalates until ... WOW! And, no, I can't tell you what happens. You'll have to read that for yourself...Veil of Deception is a story of redemption and a testament of the never-ending struggle of good and evil." |
| "Veil of Deception made me feel as though I were a part of this close knit community. I was the neighbor that got to peek into the lives of my neighbors sight unseen. I got to call them a best friend, a sister, or a brother. I felt their joys, pain, and anguish." |
| "The character building is very skillfully done. The ending has lent itself to a sequel, and I would definitely be wanting to read it..", 4.5/5 stars |
| "In the fascinating and intense short story, ESSENCE, Michael W. Davis exposes us to a beautifully written world of deep space missions and enduring love. As with his other works, Davis does an amazing job with detailed and emotionally-driven descriptions. The fast paced plot, likable characters, and twist at the end make this story a pleasure to read…and reread. I recommend Essence to science fiction and non science fiction lovers alike. A great read." |
| "Author Michael Davis has a twisted mind, and I mean that in the best possible way. In this short science fiction horror story, he explores rim fire, the phenomenon where a burst of red flashes on the rim of your peripheral vision when you quickly turn your head...The author does a good job of manipulating details and making the reader stick with the characters on this journey into the unknown. He continues to present new questions and build tension. Talented at creating beautiful / horrific visuals, Davis’ world sucked me in from the first sentence and didn’t release me until the last word in this tightly constructed story." |
| "Essence is a great short story about what someone may do to save one that they love. It’s set in a futuristic setting, with an original storyline and setting, and it is definitely something Sci-Fi readers won’t want to miss. At 24 pages in length it is a short story (but not too short) and from the beginning you’ll be hooked. For those among our readers who enjoy this genre. Do take the time to get this short story." |
