Wishful Thinking (The Dragon Knights #1)

Review: Wishful Thinking - Book #1 The Dragon Knights Series - Gabbie S. Duran - September 2015

When Lexie was younger, her twin sister Dani died of Cancer and this stuck with her whole entire life . This lead to Lexi's career working in the hospital , mainly in the oncology wards and pediatrics. Lexie's main goal in life is to give these patients their dying wish and she will go to all the lengths she can , just to make it happen including an overnight courier delivery of a pizza all the way from a different state. One of her patients, Ben is obsessed with the band The Dragon Knights and in particular the lead singer Kaleb Knight - after one of her other patient's father manages to give Lexie a VIP ticket to their recent concert, she sees this as her chance to give Ben his dying wish. It won't be easy though as when she meets Kaleb, he is nothing but a jerk. Feeling defeated, Lexie heads home and back to the hospital . Things start to look up and might even surprise her when the hospital gets a visit from Kaleb Knight himself. Over the course of the rest of the novel, we read as Kaleb tries to pursue Lexie and we learn more about both their backgrounds and discover that neither of them are a stranger to the Cancer world. What will happen though when Lexie starts to fall in love with Kaleb and she discovers a secret he is hiding which could change the course of both of their lives ? Can Kaleb and Lexie get their HEA or is it just Wishful Thinking ?
If you have read a lot of books like me and a few Cancer stories , you often feel that they are the same storyline over and over again. I can tell you readers that Wishful Thinking is not just another Cancer story and you will love it as much as I did and in parts, you may need a tissue. This book is as much about the Cancer patients as it is the Survivors and guilt.

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...
