Appealed (The Legal Briefs, #3)

Review: Appealed - Book #3 Legal Briefs Series - Emma Chase - January 2016


As readers will know, I am one of those people who have a knack and trust me it's never deliberate with reading books out of series and the Legal Briefs series by Emma Chase is one of those series. I have previously read Book #2 and #3.5 which told mainly the story of Jake and Chelsea Becker-McQuaid and of course in Book #3.5 in the epilogue it mentioned the children of the main characters - the next generation which I am still holding out that Emma will write a series about them. In Book #3 Appealed, we have the final bachelor of the friends Brent Mason. Despite his losing of his leg when he was young, he has never let that stand in the way of having an awesome fun-filled life. He is your ultimate bachelor, but if he is completely honest there has always only been one girl that would ever change his mind about settling down and having a family and that is Kennedy Randolph. Kennedy was Brent's childhood friend and first kiss. She is back on the opposite side of the law than Brent, and he is about to meet his match in the courtroom with an upcoming case. Compared to Sustained and Side-Barred, I have to admit that this wasn't a favourite in the series and just read like your usual friends to enemies and then enemies to lovers type new adult romance with a hint of the law system. Appealed is one of those books that are more about a relationship building and budding romance blossoming than anything else. If you want a sweet romance with sex and the odd legal jargon and scenario, then Appealed by Emma Chase is the read for you. I have left Overruled till last as I have it sitting on my bookshelf as a friend wasn't keen on that particular one - so readers stay tuned for my review of Overruled.

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...
