Review: Picture Perfect - L.E Maguire - April 2015

Living in the world of models and famous beautiful people can be dangerous and dishearting as you can find yourself easily mixed into their dramas and whirlwind lives. With a mother as a model and her father a famous photographer, Ember Whitfield grew up in the modelling world and met David a model and her boyfriend until he cheated on her and it almost caused her death. Picking up the pieces was Ember's best friend Jake - they have known each other from college and have been just that -really good friends.  Jake is what I could imagine that if my friend Daniel was still alive today, we would have been exactly like this. Ember has just gotten her big show and is starting a new life in Seattle with Jake. All goes well until one night out at a club, she meets Evan and there is chemistry. He doesn't give off good vibes though as he is surrounded by Barbie Dolls and turns out he is a model which Ember doesn't want anything to do with due to her past. As the story goes on though Ember and Evan are constantly thrown into each other's paths and it seems that fate is telling them something. What will happen though when Evan starts to bare his soul to Ember and fall in love with her as he is an intense character to then seeing Ember feeling betrayed as he is snapped in tabloids with other models which will have Ember retreating back to her own world of hurt and pain . Can Jake fix her up this time or is it too late - has Ember been pushed to far this time to come back ? 
Will Ember and Evan's relationship finally be a Picture Perfect one or can two people not succeed a proper relationship when being in the modelling world surrounded by beautiful people all day ?
The Angst between Ember and Evan in places reminded me of Tessa and Hardin from the After Series- just not as complicated and frustrating :P

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
