Knight and Dey

Review: Knight and Dey - Joy Wood - November 2016

When I first saw this book, the title reminded me of the movie starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz - Knight and Day. Like the movie, it got me wondering whether the main characters surnames were Knight and Dey. The book started out quite innocently with Kathryn Knight who is a head nurse at St. Anne's, married to Philip and been in a committed relationship. Kathryn visits Rosa who supposedly has a psychic side and tells Kathryn she will be the mother of three babies and a man will leave her and a new one will come along. Happily married and not seeing children in her future, she is left unsettled.  Enter Finley Dey; he is a surgeon come to St. Anne's for a new beginning from Holland as his wife and son were killed in an accident. He is also the brother of Kathryn's best friend, Elsie. Here, I thought that this book would be a romance between the two but then what follows will be a story filled with different angles from spousal cheating to Affairs to Stalkers and secrets to eventually murder and death. Knight and Dey was a book that I didn't see panning out the way it did and has something for every reader. In a way, I was happy how the story ended but felt a few of the storylines were left unanswered and left the reader with more questions after the final page had ended.  If you are in the mood for a bit of romantic suspense and hospital drama, then check out Knight and Dey by Joy Wood.

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...
