Review: Shattered - Book #2 Alaskan Courage Series - Dani Pettrey - February 2013

I loved the first book in this series so much, that I have decided to embrace the whole Alaskan Courage series and in Book #2 the lost brother returns home but not in the way anyone ever imagined it would be . Reef McKenna is the drifter of the family and has made his living by becoming one of the best circuit athletes and travels all around the world competing. That is until he finds himself caught up in a murder investigation in his home town as his on/off again girlfriend has been killed and Reef is looking like the number #1 suspect. As readers discovered in Book #1 , Piper McKenna  is the Nancy Drew of the family and she is desperate to help clear her brother's name and find out who really killed Karli. Turns out though that Karli's life wasn't very clean cut and it definitely points to the fact that anyone could have killed her and a few of them have a reason for wanting her dead and buried. The other thing that the McKenna family has to worry about is Gage McKenna's old girlfriend and mother of his dead son is leading the case against Reef . Will that be against the McKenna's case even more ? Enter Darcy St James, a newspaper reporter who will do anything for the truth - she is hired by Gage to help the family dig up anything that can help with Reef's case for innocence.  Meanwhile Detective Landon is torn between loyalties of his job as a cop as the evidence is normally the way to judge a guilty or innocent man and all the evidence points to Reef but his heart lies with Piper McKenna. What will Landon decide to do ? Can he stay partial in this case as the McKenna's will need all the help they can get ?
At first I thought that this story's romance thread would be between Gage and Darcy St James as there was a chemistry sprinkled throughout the pages between the two of them but in Shattered - the love line is between Landon and Piper McKenna. Will the pair of them get their happily-ever-after or will the final ruling of Reef's case pull them apart forever ?
Find out in the second book of Dani Pettrey's awesome Christian Adventure series "Alaskan Courage".

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...
