The Night He Saved Me


Review: The Night He Saved Me - Saved By Love Series - Sarah Stevens - 2016

When Kat's brother ends up in prison , her mother makes the decision to move Kat and herself to New Hampshire and start a new life. During this time her mother meets a new guy Kyle and end up getting married. Kat starts playing up and rebelling and makes a new friend at school called Bren. Her friend Bren is into the party scene and Kat starts experimenting with drugs and alcohol. At one of her very first parties, Kat ends up being sexually assaulted. This leaves Kat running out of the party and into the eyesight of James- the sexy cafe owner. I really liked the character of James as Sarah Stevens had written him as a genuinely sweet character and you can read that he cared for Kat and wasn't going to force himself into her path. He wanted her but you could see it wasn't just for sex, he really loved her and it was so nice and refreshing to read a novel where the guy's niceness and personality really stood out from the pages. It made me want a James for myself. Later Kat finds out that her life's plans after high school are thwarted as she is pregnant due to the sexual assault. However, once again James steps up to the plate to help her but at her own pace. He is there standing in the shadows for when she needs saving. Can James prove to Kat that he is there for her and the baby 100% and that no matter how hard she pushes him away, he would go to the moon and back for her? The Night He Saved Me has some edgy scenes from rape, violence and drugs/alcohol but overall felt like a clean-ish YA/NA crossover read as it had no cursing and the sex was brushed over.

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...
