Amber Alert (Amber Alert, #1)

Review: Amber Alert - Book #1 Amber Alert Series - Sara Schoen - December 2014


Twelve females over the years have been kidnapped and never seen again, and they have been listed as missing persons. What started as a day out to meet her boyfriend at the park ended up a nightmare for Anna as her boyfriend was killed and she found herself abducted. She had always been careful and never thought she would be the one ever to get taken. Steve has been kidnapping females for years to make them the perfect wife and mother for him and his son who is now about Anna's age. To survive, she must follow the twelve rules otherwise she will end up dead like the previous twelve females who have been in the same shoes as her. Just as Anna and Garrett are planning their escape, Steve also kidnaps a little girl about five called Jessie. This makes Anna and Garrett move fast before Steve can harm Jessie and kill them all. When they get to the station though, they are about to discover that the incidents go beyond just Steve and seems like he has dirty cops in his back pockets who have been helping him cover and destroy any evidence. With the help of Jessie's father James who is one of the good cops, can they bring down Steve to justice before it's too late or will he evade the police and finish the three of them once and for all. I have to admit, we got to see Jessie's family and interaction, but I had hoped for a bit more about Anna and especially Garett's family reactions when it was revealed that they were alive.  After finishing this book, I had an Amazon voucher and went on to purchase the next book in the series as I do love my mystery and suspense novels.

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...
