Paradox (The Thornfield Affair #2)

Review: Paradox - Book #2 The Thornfield Affair - Amity Cross - November 2016


Jane Doe always wanted a family, someone to love her and she thought she had found that at Thornfield with the staff and Mr. Rochester. The thing was though that Mr. Rochester was a hard guy to pinpoint and he breaks Jane's heart. Months later, she overhears that he has gotten engaged to Blanche Ingram - the rude lady from Book #1.  This breaks her more, but she has an artist retreat to run at Thornfield. During this time an artist John Rivers catches her eye, and the pair spends some time together. Of course, Mr. Rochester arrives back jealous as ever, but why should he be when he has Blanche. During this time, Blanche's true colors are revealed as she tries to kill Jane. Meanwhile, Jane is about to discover who she is and what she's worth when her Aunt Sarah Reed gets sick and reveals a letter she has kept hidden for over ten years from Jane's biological Uncle - her Dad's brother James Eyre. This made me pleased as I was waiting for the Eyre revelation. Mr. Rochester and Jane rekindle their romance and get engaged only to have Mason interfere and reveal Mr. Rochester's crazy past to Jane. Can Jane stay and trust Edward to sort things out or has her heart been burned too many times? Now with money and property to her name, Jane finally has somewhere to call home and survive on her own. Is this a new chapter opening for Jane Eyre or will Edward Rochester win back Jane's love and trust?
Find out in Book #2 The Thornfield Affair - Paradox, a modern rendition of Jane Eyre by Amity Cross.

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
