Dancing Her Dreams Away (Volume 1)
Review: Dancing her Dreams Away - Volume One -Alretha Thomas -March 2011
One of the age-old tales of people going to Hollywood and LA is for one thing - To become Famous , they always either say I've come to Hollywood to be an actress or to become a singer and unfortunately , LA turns out to be such a big place and there isn't jobs for everyone , so these people take what they can get whether it becomes prostution , burlesque or working in a strip club doing lap dances. Dancing her Dreams Away takes us into the life of Shelia and in some ways reading this novel, you could imagine that you were reading somebody's true life account as Shelia takes a job dancing in Flamingo's Bar as she dreams of one day becoming a famous actress , she then meets an amazing producer who has it all - the connections and the wealth. He offers Shelia the dream life , however she is about to discover that dreams like this can come with baggage and ulterior motives as she begins to head down a road of drugs, alcohol, addiction etc. When Shelia discovers the truth behind Greg the Producer's past, it forces her to think about her life and re-evaluate it . Shelia then checks herself into Rehab -again like most Hollywood stars do on a regular basis. Can Shelia stay clean and get her life back on track or will she when she comes out fall back into a routine and life with her friends at Flamingo's bar and once again Dance her Dreams Away ?
Find out in this amazingly written novel that you could swear if you didn't know it was Fiction - it could be the true account of someone's life.

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
