Review: Woman of God - James Patterson and Maxine Paetro - September 2016

In the last few months, I have tried to make an effort to clear out my print bookshelf as I have had books sitting there for years like this particular one that had been there since 2016. It is funny though as it has been an interesting ride as most have turned out to be DNF but then I have had some that I sit there and think, why did it take me this long to read it? Woman of God was one of those books, I think it was the fact that it is something that neither of these two authors has ever ventured towards. Normally, they work only together on The Women's Murder Club which I continue to enjoy.  Woman of God was such a great read as it was fast-paced like the usual Patterson novel, but at the same time, it mixed romance, adventure, murder, death, and religion in a way that complimented each other. Woman of God starts with our main female character Brooke in Rome with her daughter, they have been invited as the new Pope is resigning. There have been rumors that the Pope met with Brooke as he wants her to be his successor, this has gotten some people's backs up as they believe a woman shouldn't ever be considered a Pope. There is an assassin attempt and then the book jumps back twenty years ago when Brooke was starting her career with Doctors without Borders - a charity NFP organization helping war-torn countries like Sudan. Throughout the novel, we follow Brooke's life and witness her heroic attempts, her losses, her tragedies, and her wins and how she got to this high-esteemed place today with her daughter. If you love Christian fiction with an edgy twist, then Woman of God by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro needs to be at the top of your list as it was just as brilliant as their esteemed series "The Women's Murder Club".

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
