In Too Deep (Freshman Roommates #1)

Review: In Too Deep - Book #1 The Freshman Roommates Trilogy - December 2014

Trying to clear my kindle of old titles, I came across In Too Deep by Mara Jacobs. Like most of the books on my kindle, I get them, and then by the time I read them some I have forgotten or have no idea what they are actually about. All I knew with this one judging by the cover was that it was a new adult college fiction read as it talked about freshman and that it was set possibly in a dorm as mentioned roomies. The book starts with our main female character Lily teaching swimming lessons to kids from lower-income homes, one little boy in particular Andy whom we see throughout the book gets picked up by his older brother Lucas. Lily never believed in love at first sight, but she has fallen hard for Lucas. Lucas works as a janitor at a wealthy school and this reminded me of Channing Tatum in Step Up movie when he fell for the rich ballet dancer. The book then introduces us to Jane who has a twisted story of her own and it looks like Lily is roommates with her due to their parents and was sent to be a spy and report back on Jane's actions and make sure she stays out of the spotlight. In Too Deep was an instant attraction novel and one of those reads of opposites attract in terms of class e.g. Lily - upper class, a politician for a father, and Lucas - dead father, poor and a mother in rehab. Can these two who were brought up in completely different upbringings find a middle point and date or are their differences what will keep them apart? Find out in this indie read "In too Deep" which had the OG "New adult" angst feel to the book.

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...
