One Step Too Far (Frankie Elkin, #2)

Review: One Step Too Far - Book #2 Frankie Elkins - Lisa Gardner - January 2022

I haven't read Lisa Gardner for a while, but she is one of those authors whom I have always enjoyed. Her thrillers are always easy to read and keep my interest. In this new series, we meet Frankie Elkins who decides to dedicate her life to finding missing people and helping families reach closure, even if sometimes it isn't the most positive of news as often those missing people turn up as dead bodies.  Frankie has recently heard a story about a friend who disappeared on his stag do which was a men's night out camping. Five friends went into the bush and only four came out. Each year, the four get together along with their friend's dad to search for Tim, to get closure. In the fifth year, the friends have had enough as it's time to move on - the guilt of what happened that night before Tim went missing is eating them up and they don't know how long they can keep this facade up. It's time for them to get on with their lives and accept that Tim isn't coming back. Tim's mum is dying and Frankie is moved by this story, she rocks up to help. However, as the team is out searching along with the deputy - strange things happen and it looks like someone is certain, they don't want the truth to ever be revealed and will do everything in their power - even kill if they have to.  One Step Too Far was another great book by Lisa Gardner and I now am interested to read the first book in Frankie's story.

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
