Review: Life on the Edge - Book #1 Edge Series - Jennifer Comeaux - January 2012

I find it interesting when you have a book sitting on your Ipad to read for so long and then you forget about it till something prompts you to finally read it. For me , that was Jennifer's book "Life on the Edge" as I have had it since it was released on my Kindle but for some reason I just hadn't got around to finishing it and then I was prompted by the tour to read and review it. So I dug out my Kindle App and searched for the book and got stuck into it. Reading it , it reminded me of a movie plot line that I think I watched in one of those Ice Skating movies I love so much as I have seen them all from The Cutting Edge Quartets to The Ice Princess and Ice Castles.  Life on the Edge is the story of Emily who is a champion ice-skater who starts to develop feelings for her coach Sergio. The pair know that what they are doing isn't right and could cost them both their careers - hers as a champion Olympic Ice-skater and his as a Coach. So begins an on/off secret romance . What will happen though when the pair are found out and secrets from Sergio's past in Russia come back to threaten their relationship ? 
Life on the Edge is a contemporary Romeo and Juliet story where instead of Verona it is the Ice Skating Rink.
I look forward to reading the next two books in the Edge Series = The Edge of the Past and Reaching for the Edge .

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
