Ghost in His Eyes 

Review: Ghost in His Eyes - Carrie Aarons - April 2017

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading Ghost in His Eyes as I hadn't looked really at the blurb. I just saw that it was a Carrie Aarons book and I quite like that author. The book starts off again with the main female characters having a unisex name - Blake. I have to admit that it wasn't till I got to chapter 3 that I realized that Blake was a female as after reading the first few pages, I thought we might have a book from a male POV. What made me the double check was that Blake had brought from the supermarket romance novels and chocolate and I was like wait a minute - a guy buying romance novels? We learn that a tragedy occurred on a night that was Blake's best and worst night of her life and that Carson Cole was involved. It has been ten years since that night, and for Blake, she fell apart and turned borderline agoraphobic and for Carson - he stayed away for the ten years. That is until now, Carson has returned home to take over his father's business with the horses. With Blake doing the graphic design for the business and it being a small town, the pair is bound to run into each other on more than one occasion. What will happen though when they are both confronted with the issues of that fateful night? Has fate given them a second chance to work things out and move on with forgiving one another? Will this be an open the door to a possible re-ignition of their romance and love for one another? Ghost in His Eyes was a slower read than I was used to and I have to admit, Blake's character frustrated me a bit as the tragedy was like a massive dark cloud hanging over her. It was like that's what she lived for, and made no effort to try and move past the accident, she was living in a constant depression and dark spot and hello, small town - everyone just let her be that way - where was the support? Overall, however, if you want a second chance edgy romance with a sprinkle of wild horses and foals then check out Carrie Aaron's new release "Ghost in His Eyes."

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...
