Heart-Shaped Hack (Kate and Ian, #1)

Review: Heart Shaped Hack - Book #1 Kate and Ian Series - Tracey Garvis Graves - August 2015

Heart Shaped Hack first off has an amazing cover and was another amazing story by Tracey Garvis Graves. After beinge-watching season one of CSI Cyber, I  think that made me enjoy this book more as we meet Ian who is a hacker - watching the show allowed me to learn some of the terminology that was scattered throughout the novel.  Kate, gave up her illustrious law career to work in a non-profit food pantry and nearing the winter months, the food pantry is running low on funds for everything that they need so she agrees to go on TV to try and gain sponsors and donations. Her stunt on TV gives Ian an idea to become Robin Hood and starts giving anonymous donations to the shelter until Kate catches him and thus begins an awkward back and forward relationship as Kate has been brought up in a family where the Law system is important and should be followed and Ian of course is a hacker which depending on people's views can be illegal. During the novel the pair become romantically involved and they have fun - I loved all the little hacks that Ian does for Kate . Their relationship goes well until tragedy strikes and yes, this part will have your hearts sinking as tears start welling up in your eyes and you are like NOOOOOOOOO - how could you Tracey do this to us and Kate ? I shall finish here though and leave you with the fact that there is a twist in the tale and it will be one book that you will not be able to put down and that you must read past the tragic moment as the outcome is suprising. I am now looking forward to reading Book #2 and the next adventures of the Kate and Ian 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
