Are you into your mystery fiction ?
Looking for a new author to get stuck into and enjoy ?
Review : Missing Child - Patricia MacDonald - April 2012
As a fan of mystery fiction and the fact that some of my favourite authors cannot write fast enough, it means that I am always on the constant search for new authors to enjoy. One of those recent discoveries was Patricia MacDonald as you know the Amazon emails that you get - the ones that go "you just brought this, so you might like this " - recently it was Patricia MacDonald's latest book Sisters. It sounded like a good read and then with a bit of research I discovered that she had written others and more awesomenly they were avaliable at the library I work at. So the first one I read was Missing Child and let me tell you this was such an intense and awesome read as we first meet Caitlin and her brother James two years prior and then it flashes forward two years later to Caitlin who is happily married to Noah and has a six year old Stepson Geordie. The novel takes place when Geordie is kidnapped and soon secrets that will connect Caitlin with Noah's ex-wife who was killed years earlier will spill. Are they connected to Geordie's kidnapping or will they reveal a piece to a huge tangled web that has Geordie bang-smack in the middle of ? In a way Missing Child reminded me of the book and film by TD Jakes - On the Seventh Day.
If you are looking for a new author to discover and keep you thrilled and on your toes , then Patricia MacDonald is the woman for you.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
