Looking for a new teen romance to read ? One with a bit of suspense chucked into it ?
 
Review: To Know You is To Love You - Book #2 If I never Knew You - Aubrey Bailey - February 2013.
 This is a series first off that doesn't necessarily have to be read in order as I wasn't aware when I began to read it , that it was Book #2 in the series. To Know You is to Love you, starts off with sixteen year old Riley who has just gotten the lead role in the new school production Freedom in which she has also written the music for. However, her two love interests in the production is Preston - her current boyfriend whom we discover is cheating on her and her ex-best friend whom we see Riley re-developing feelings for - Landon.  Will this production put into perspective who Riley is to choose as her love interest in real life ? Meanwhile Riley's mother Madison gets two nasty surprises in the form of blasts from the past. The first is her father whom abandon her when she was little and now wants to reconnect with Madison and get to know her and her family and the second is Damien , an abusive ex-boyfriend who has been serving the past twenty years in prison for attempted murder.  Madison and Damien's story was told in Book #1 and had the introduction of Riley's Dad Orion who was Madison's new boyfriend and now twenty years later her husband.
To Know You is To Love you was a good clean read with minor sex and abusive scenes e.g Riley's kidnapping and can either be read as part of the series or as a stand-alone novel.

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
