Endangered (Daughter of Hades, #1)

Review: Endangered - Book #1 Daughter of Hades Series - Dani Hoots - May 2016

One of my favourite themes to read about is Greek Mythology and renditions of famous stories , one of them is the tale of Hades and Persephone. In Endangered we discover that the pair had a daughter named Chrysanthemum aka Chrys and she has been living in the Underworld with her dad Hades and learning the family business. She has also been given strict instructions that she isn't allowed to wander outside of the underworld realm as nobody knows she exists as Zeus believes that Hades is sterile and can't have children but of course this hasn't proven to be the case.  In Endangered we also glimpse another side of Persephone which actually made me hate her character and like Hades a little more as she is a cougar busy dating and sleeping with as many men as she likes. Persephone only spends 3 months out of the 12 months in the Underworld and hates it here, she would rather spend her time on Earth. Chrys longs to spend some time on Earth and see what it's like , so she gets an idea and soon Chrys, her tutor Huntley and AJ - who is Posiedon's son head to London. While they are there though, it seems that there are other Gods and Goddesses roaming the streets and they are about to use Chrys as a pawn in their games in order to gain power.  Can Huntley now a mere mortal save Chrys or will she discover that being the daughter of Hades can benefit her in the game of life and death ?
If you love Greek Mythology Tales and Books that are based on variants of tales - then you will love Endangered by Dani Hoots - Book #1 Daughter of Hades series.

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
