Review: A Life of Inches - Douglas Esper - May 2015

You know those love triangle books where there are two best friends and then a girl is added to the mix and the three became the best of friends, but eventually they reach the age of romance and the girl either picks one of them or none of them ? 
A Life of Inches by Douglas Esper is one of those stories that spans over ten years starting from when they are about 12 years old - I guess. Best friends Ryan and Woodie are riding their bikes home and decide to have a race, which is halted when an orange Camaro drives out and causes Woodie to crash and fall off his bike. The car stops and out pops the girl in the mix - Molly. It is love at first sight for Ryan , but he can tell that she only has eyes for Woodie and so begins the start of a love triangle / best friends forever between Ryan, Woodie and Molly. Years pass and Ryan moves and has to go to a different school but he still hangs out with his friends, but its not the same. More years pass, and they are now headed to College where Ryan and Woodie are playing ball as they are awesome at it. During this time we see Molly has another boyfriend but the two of them aren't happy about it as if they can't have Molly then no-one can. More years pass and it seems that Ryan is pushed to the outside as Woodie is Molly's go-to guy when things start to get rough. What will happen though when Molly later falls pregnant and the baby could be Ryan or Woodie's - who will Molly choose to help raise the child and will it be the right father she picks ?
A Life of Inches is a story written from the perspective of the guy's - mainly Ryan's about a love triangle , best friends and Ball that will last a lifetime.
If you are a fan of The Vincent Boys series by Abbi Glines, then you will fit right at home with Douglas Esper's book 'A Life of Inches".

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
