Black Widow (Black Widow #1)



Review: Black Widow - Book #1 Black Widow Series - Jenni Moen - November 2016

After solving a cold case which evidently he should have been celebrating, it, in fact, ruined his marriage and his career. Scott Russell has lost everything and now he is politely relocated to Highland Park - a wealthy subdivision with low crime rate. On his first train ride to his new place, he meets a mysterious woman on the train. There is something capturing about her, and after a train ride of talking, Scott proposes that he can make her fall in love with him after a week. Seems like a challenge and she accepts, he doesn't know her name but when they are due to go their separate ways she is involved in a mugging which Scott steps up to help. She is edgy and asks for no police involvement. This flashes warning bells for Scott as he is a Detective. Soon strange things start to happen for Scott as it is like he is being thrown money, bribed - he just doesn't know what for and who it is from as of yet. The book continues, and we finally get a name for the female - Celeste Smythe. We learn her side of the story about how she is wealthy and that she is reclusive. We also discover her hesitancy towards law enforcement as her husband died and Celeste  nicknamed the Black Widow. What will happen though when Scott gets involved more romantically with Celeste, and it looks like someone is trying to kill her or are they trying to get rid of him? Find out in Black Widow and OMG that ending in the police station with Scott looking at cold cases, it has now made me want to read Book #2 when it's released. Fair warning thy readers, Black Widow does end on a major cliffhanger.

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...
