Review: Lowcountry Boil - Book #1 Liz Talbot Mystery - Susan M. Boyer - September 2012

One of my favourite genres to read is mysteries and every now and again , I feel in the mood for something light but with a tad bit of substance so I head for my cozy mysteries and my favourite publishing company for these is Henery Press. Today's mystery is Book #1 in the Liz Talbot series and is set in the heart of the southern society. Liz , years ago and after making several bad choices hightailed out of town and started up her own PI business alongside her ex-husband's brother Nate. Life has been chugging along great until Liz sees a ghost - the ghost is of her friend who died when she was fourteen and has a message for her to "come home". Soon after the message is delivered , Liz's phone rings and it's her older police chief brother Blake with news that her grandmother Emma Rae has passed away. This should have just been an easy dip in and dip out but turns out that Liz has inherited her grandmother's estate and that maybe her grandmother didn't die of an accident but of murder. Eager to uncover the truth no matter what, Liz with the help of her ghost guardian and her skills as a PI must uncover what really happened to Grandma. However, what she will unravel is a plot that someone has been wanting to keep quiet for the past thirty to forty years and also seems that some dirty work has been going on for a while around Stella Maris and Liz's grandma had hidden all the dirt which in the wrong hands could expose all the townspeople's darkest secrets.  Can Liz get to the bottom of her grandma's murder without causing more trouble or should Liz's surname been Trouble instead of Talbot ?
Find out in this awesome new mystery which you will enjoy if you loved Terri Austin's Rose Strickland Series.

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...
