Review: Anywhere But Here - Anna Cruise - February  2014 Every year, I try and make it my goal to clear out and read the older books on my devices. Books I have had sitting there since the mid to later 2000's seeing as we are in 2020 now. This particular book I have had sitting on my kindle for about 5-6 years. I have found myself in the past enjoying Anna Cruise's books especially the Annika and Abby series and so was excited to read Anywhere But Here. This book starts with us meeting Jacie who has returned home and working in the local cafe as she has discovered her mother stole her college tuition money. Jacie had vowed never to return home but with nowhere else to go, she must come back home to her mother's trailer. Here she meets her mum's new boyfriend and is drawn back into the drama of her mother's bad choices. During the book, too Jacie is confronted with her old boyfriend Garrett who never stopped loving her and the new guy around...

Review: All He Wants - Book #2 Annika and Stuart Series - Anna Cruise - August 2014 Like most of the books on my e-reader, I have them from a long time ago as what happens is that I grab them and then new books come along and in the process, these get lost as new books shove them further and further down my kindle. The first book in this series I read back in February 2015 - over four years ago. A quick recap of that book had Annika falling for Stuart whom she met in Brazil on a humanitarian trip. It had started as a fling but there were sparks and a connection which as we know Annika isn't normally the type to have any connections with the opposite sex besides a quick wham bam thank you, ma'am, and next as she rotates a list of sexual conquests through her bed. Stuart is special though and makes Annika want to be a better person. In All He Wants, the book starts off with Annika getting her shots to go to Brazil and be with Stuart, that is until she breaks out...

Review: It Was Me - Book #2 Abby and West - Anna Cruise - July 2013 After a bit of struggling with books this morning as I tried two books before this one and they were both DNF. I felt in the mood to read a book that I knew would not be an automatic DNF for me as I love Anna Cruise's books. It has been a few years since I read the first book in the series, but due to my memory, I remember what happened - well enough anyway. At the end of Book # 1, Abby and West were trying to salvage their relationship as Annika had tricked West into thinking she was Abby. This, of course, caused a rift between the twins and West . Things have been going strong for the pair of them and Abby's annual family trip to Arizona is coming up and this time around they have invited West. With Annika not going, West reluctantly agrees. The pair has fun and Abby's family talks West into trying for the Baseball open tryouts. West goes along to see if he still has it and i...
