A Merciful Silence (Mercy Kilpatrick, #4)

Review: A Merciful Silence - Book #4 Mercy Kilpatrick Series - Kendra Elliot - June 2018
We are back with our favorite FBI agent Mercy Kilpatrick and her partner Truman who is the sheriff of the small town they live in. One of my favorite mystery writers is Kendra Elliot as I find her books fast-paced and they are action-packed. They also have flashbacks to past cases which I enjoy. In A Merciful Silence, the town has had a rainstorm and a group of five skulls has washed up in the ravine. When Mercy sees the skulls, she is reminded of a couple of cases that happened when she was in primary school over twenty years ago when two families were murdered in the same way.  Is this a case of a copycat as the killer has been locked up for twenty years or did they arrest the wrong person? Meanwhile the only survivor of one of the original attacks Britta has moved back to town and now with the killings starting back up, is she in danger? Is the killer coming back to finish what he started over twenty years ago? The other storyline in this book is with the SC aka the Sovereign of Christ who believes that the US has no control over them and they have their own rights. Truman lands himself on the wrong side of this group and finds himself kidnapped. A week later, will he survive this ordeal when a savior arrives in the form of Ollie and Shep - we know this duo from the later books as he became Truman's adopted son or will he be left with PTSD and a crumbling relationship with Mercy when he returns back to civilization. If you are on the lookout for a new female mystery writer to read then check out Kendra Elliot as you won't be disappointed.

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
