Cracked Sapphire (Broken Gems, #1)

Review: Cracked Sapphire - Book #1 Broken Gems Series - Jane Blythe - February 2020

As I enjoyed previously Jane Blythe's Count to Ten Series, I was looking forward to reading her Broken Gems series. In this series, we meet Detective Sapphire Hatcher. When Sapphire and her sisters were younger about ten years ago, they were snatched from their homes and sold to go into human trafficking by their parents. There were five of them Sapphire, Diamond, Ruby, Amethyst, and Emerald - however, only four of them were able to find each other and have been living together ever since and have hopes that one day their youngest sister Emerald will be reunited with them. Now ten years later, Sapphire is a detective who has dedicated herself to saving others so they don't have to go through what her sisters and herself went through. They have a serial killer on the loose who is killing females and dumping their bodies in public places. Sapphire and her partner Eli are getting close and it ends in a shoot-out that lands Eli into the hospital. The Chief of Police has brought Dr. Gideon Barlow in to help solve the case and Sapphire isn't keen as she hates with a passion shrinks. Gideon though has seemed to get under Sapphire's skin and we see some chemistry sizzling off the pages. What will happen though when the killer turns out to be someone closer to Sapphire than she ever realized? Will she find herself in a similar captive position that she was in ten years ago? Find out in the first book of the Broken Gems series by Jane Blythe, another great start to another awesome thriller series.

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
