Looking for a new teen indie series to get stuck into ? Love the theme of Cinderella tales?
Review: Dante's Girl - Book #1 Paradise Diaries - Courtney Cole - June 2012
Imagine , you are on your way to your dad's for another annual vacation to London where he works for the NSA when an aeroplane blows up at the airport. Whilst at the airport, you managed to somehow bump into a hot guy and now you are being whisked away with this hot guy. That's what happened to Reece - a farm girl from Kansas when she was on her way to her Dad's and now she has ended up in the Greek Island of Caberra with the hot guy who turns out to be Dante Gilberti - son of the Prime Minister of Caberra and heir to the operation of Gilberto Olives. For Reece this is like a dream come true , and she can't believe that she is here . Though what happens when the time comes to meet his friends, will her fantasy world be shot down to reality when she discovers that A) they hate Americans and B) Dante is already in a "complicated" relationship with a stunner chick Elena who is also rich and wealthy. How can Reece ever compete ? With the help of newfound friend Mia whose father is the Ministry of Defence leader , Reece will learn the ways of the Caberra's and learn to fight for what or in this case who she wants. Will Reece get her Cinderella moment with Dante or will she discover that happily-ever-afters are only found in books ?
A great start to a new series, that I look forward to reading Book #2 and Book #3.
Perfect for anyone who loves Cinderella tales.

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
