Today's VBT# is author Martha Randolph Carr and her novel "Wired" on behalf of Novel Publicity Tours.

Review: Wired - Martha Randolph Carr - May 2011
Wanting a mystery novel that also adds the element of drama and family sagas to the mix. Meet the Eames Family - Charlie , Mary Elizabeth and their son Matthew. They were a happy family unit until recently , Mary Elizabeth has been acting very strangely and it makes you wonder if there's something in the air. After being married such a long time , it makes you think and wonder whether couples really are like this and hide secrets that can tear marriages apart - secrets so extreme you could'nt ever imagine it. Up till a year ago , I would have said that if you have been married a long time e.g 15+ years , you should be able to share secrets and overcome all obstacles in your marriage's way but that proved not to be true as I experienced a marriage of close ones separating after 25 years over a dark secret- just like that . In Wired , Mary Elizabeth's whole life starts to crumble piece by piece when articles of murders at the Bluff start to circulate in Rosewood's newspaper. We discover that something happened with Mary Elizabeth and the Bluff and that now the murders are starting back up , she may be in vital danger. Not knowing how to cope, she pushes away Charlie and we see him finding comfort in a friend's sister Thelma. Can the pair of them work out what is going on and share their secrets before neither of them can stand being near each other ? Is this the end for the married couple Mary Elizabeth and Charlie as he does a John Tucker (reference from the film John Tucker Must Die)  on his wife ? What is the connection between Mary Elizabeth and the murders that are occuring on the bluff ?
Find out all this and more in Wired - a novel that at first will seem confusing as you try and piece together the pieces but once you get into the novel , it will start feeling like a completed jigsaw.

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...
