                                                        ENCORE PERFORMANCE (THE MATCHMAKER TRILOGY)

A couple of months back , I got the privilege to read and review book #1 in the series titled "Matchmakers". Today I have the privilege of bringing to review for you book #2 - Encore Performance by author Bernadette Marie.

                         Review : Encore Performance - Book #2 The Matchmaker Trilogy - 2010

Since the first book , Sophia and David Kendall finally got their wedding day - the one they had planned 8 years ago before she dashed off to join the ensemble of musicians with her cello, of course the book ended on a rockier note with Carissa's real mum showing up and announcing that she had just had another daughter and would like David to take care of it , this ended up in the result of Sophia and David adopting a wee girl and Carissa's already half-sister Hope.
In book #2 we see that a tragedy has occurred and one of the grandmothers has passed away, leaving Carissa with taking on the role of looking after the remaining Grandmother and matchmaking queen Katie. In Number #2 Carissa is setting up a school for children with musical talent especially those who play the Cello like she and her adopted mother Sophie do so well. To help the school out and a close friend , Sophia brings in her ol' music buddy from the ensemble Thomas Samuel. It is love at first sight for Thomas and Carissa however both of them are as a stubborn as each other and won't admit it to one another as they have work to do. Sophia used to the matchmaking herself discovers that the art of matchmaking is like gossip. It will either continue to spread on it's own or sometimes she needs the practice to make it her art form.
Can Sophia bring Carissa and Thomas together , or is their something- way bigger than Sophia expected that is blocking their views from each other?

Find out in Book #2 Encore Performance by Bernadette Marie and I'm now looking forward to the final Book in the trilogy Hope's Discovery.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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: 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...
