Review: In The Lyrics - Nacole Stayton - February 2014

Ever since the accident which took the life of Colby's brother Levi, his family and him haven't been living and Colby has had enough. So he's off to the home of country music "Nashville" to study and also live his dream of becoming a famous musician. It is here where he meets his new roommate Dusty who is gay and Hensley- Dusty's best friend and who happens to be a girl. From the first moment Colby laid eyes on Hensley, he was in love and so the story goes with Colby trying to crack Hensley's outer shell and let her know he is for the loving and long-haul. He even brings her home and lets her into the one part of his life, he normally keeps hidden. However, being famous can change everything in a heartbeat as one night , the threesome are singing and a record producer spots Colby. He wants to make Colby a star - the only thing is , he just wants Colby and not the other two. This is where I really liked Colby and his morals and ethics as he was loyal to his new friends and declined the contract. Next thing he knows though is that Hensley has signed up with them, this annoyed me as it showed she was in it all for herself and nobody was standing in her way - not even the people who thought they were her friends. As the story goes on , will Colby ever get his chance at being famous or will his music and heart take on a different direction ? When Hensley finds out the truth behind her contract - will she stay with them or break it off and risk losing her fame and fortune ? I was a bit disappointed though in this novel as I thought I would read more of Colby singing rather than the building up of the romance between Colby and Hensley. However, if you are looking for a New Adult Country Romance with a hint of music - then peek inside "In the Lyrics" as it may be the book for you.

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
