Review: Black Ice - Becca Fitzpatrick - October 2014

The author of the popular Angel series "Hush,Hush" is back with a new standalone novel "Black Ice" and if you love mystery and suspense novels, then this is the book for you. I was a tad worried at first on whether I would enjoy it or not and I actually found myself loving this book and could not put it down at all. Black Ice starts with best friends Korbie and Brit who are headed for Spring Break up to the mountains to Korbie's parents cabin along with Korbie's boyfriend Bear and brother Calvin. While stopping for gas to get Calvin off her back, Brit fakes a boyfriend - Mason and he plays along and they go their separate ways , hoping never to see each other again. Fast forward their trip up the mountain and Brit's car breaks down , so her and Korbie head to the nearest cabin for heat and a comfort stop but what they find will be the start of a hope for survival as they stumble across Sean and Mason and Sean is a tad creepy and scary and Mason isn't the same guy she met at the Petrol station earlier on. Over the next few days, Korbie and Brit will have to learn to survive and keep in line in order to live as they are alone with killers. The story connects to previous murders of females that happened in these same woods and we discover that Mason has a connection to one of these murders. Can Brit trust Mason in order to survive or is he still playing a game with her ? Black Ice had a major twist near the end when the killer was revealed and OMFG I definitely did not see that coming and I loved how the author ended the book with one year later, was a nice conclusion to the story.

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
