Proud to have on my blog and introduce it to the world is Australia's new Penguin Digital Imprint - "Destiny Romance" which will help launch many new Australian authors into the world of books and publishing.
As a member of Netgalley , I was lucky enough to be able to read and review a few of the new books in this imprint.
Today's one is by Kelly Hunter and is titled "Wish".
Review: Wish - Kelly Hunter - October 2011
Set in rural Australia in a small country town , we meet single mother Billie Temple and her son Cal . Billie has just arrived in town after recieving a job to manage the local pub. It seems though that their has been a bit of miscommunication as the landlord of her new house expected a male and definitely wanted someone with no kids.  Now Billie must help sway landlord Adam's ways as Billie and her son have nowhere left to go. With a bit of city know-it-how, Billie starts to rally around the locals and soon turns the pub into a booming place to be but soon strange things will start occuring from slashed tyres to trampled roses to vandalism. Is somebody out to get Billie ? Do they want her as faraway from this town as possible ? 
A quick read at 97 pages, Wish will keep you on your toes as you try and decipher who is doing the vandalism and why ?

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...
