Review: Untouched - Book #1 Florence, Arizona - Lauren Hawkeye - December 2014

Untouched was an edgy read as it starts off with the main character Alexa being home and the readers discover that she was in an accident which caused her to lose her memory of what occurred and has also caused her to stop her passion of painting. The readers also discover that prior to the accident , Alexa was a big-shot artist who had her own gallery shows and sold quite a number of paintings. After her accident, Alexa's mother became more protective and all is sailing smoothly till Alexa gets a visit from Ellie - a woman who is claiming to be her older sister. The thing is Alexa knows nothing of her father and can't believe she has a sister out there as whenever she tries to talk to her mum about her dad , her mum clams up. Over the next course of the novel, we read as Alexa travels to Florence, at first I kept thinking Florence , Italy but turns out that their is a smalltown in Arizona called Florence - this is where she goes. Over the following week or so Ellie ups and leaves Alexa in charge of her flower shop as her fiance's dad is sick -during this time Alexa meets Nate - one of the prison guards and also discovers a book up in the attic - a diary of sorts. Inside this book though is disturbing entries which indicate a horrible crime was committed. Who is this book about and who is the woman in the story ? To not give any more away in the book, I shall finish the review here as this is one book that you will have to read to discover the truth as anymore would be a total SPOILER alert. The perfect read for those fans of Edgy Fiction.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he

Review: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
