Behind the Curtain 

Review: Behind the Curtain - Beth Kery - May 2017

Asher is back home to talk to his parents after being away doing photojournalism overseas . With his 30th birthday coming up , he is back to tell his parents that he doesn't want a cent of their money and that they can stuff his trust where the sun doesn't shine.  While back home with his friends Rudy and Jimmy, they take him to a club where the singer Yesnia is live. She sings behind a curtain and wears a veil. Nobody knows her name or her identity. When Asher hears her voice, there is something that her voice ignites and he believes he has heard it before years ago. Coming back the next night , Asher takes the subway and runs into the singer only to discover that it is none other than Laila - the girl who got away eight years ago. His one true love , His Juliet to his Romeo. Meeting one summer , Laila and Asher fell deeply in love but they came from two different worlds and cultures and their families pulled them apart and they went their separate ways but never forgot one another.  Asher let Laila go once but this time he is standing his ground and will fight for her and let her know that he's not going anywhere and will do anything to prove his love for her. I loved this book as I am one for soulmates in books and though this book had the look of becoming an erotica romance it in fact was a sweet contemporary romance of true love and second chances which is in my top five list of tropes to read about. Will Asher and Laila ever get their happily ever after or will they find that their families are still trying to stand in the way of their happiness ? Find out in Beth Kery's latest romance  "Behind the Curtain" .

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
