I wasn't entirely sure what this book
would be about, I had originally thought
maybe with the title it might have an Agony Aunt twist but turned out to be
more the inner voice was her Dear Agony moments. I loved this book as it had a
few of my favorite things, the first was
that it was set in New Orleans and it
reminded me of the time I spent there and gave me flashbacks of memories. The
other thing it has arranged relationships and the theme of semi-roomies to
friends to lovers. Rose was homeless and
making her small pittance by entertaining in Jackson Square. Rose is approached by a woman named Vale who runs a
companionship business and wants Rose.
Rose agrees and soon becomes a project and more to Vale, almost like her protege. Vale owes her business success to
her best friend B aka Bash as he gave her the start-up for the business. He is
ready to wipe Vale's loan of $2 million for Rose as his companion. Rose and
Vale agree, and Rose starts a
companionship relationship with Bash on the requirement that they never fall in
love. Of course, what will happen when
feelings start to come into the companionship and Bash reveals a dark secret. Will Rose stay by Bash's side even if
he tries to push her away and make her hate him? What will happen when the pair get news and Bash issue her with an
ultimatum and Rose being strong takes the hard road but stands her ground and
doesn't waver.I loved this part as I
have seen, heard and read so many stories which when they fall pregnant are
given the ultimatum - me or the baby and they abort the baby to stay with the
guy whereas Rose stayed strong and did not bend to his demands and of course
because she showed bravery and courage and good morals - she got her karma and
ended up on top and with a truly HEA ending. If you are looking for a
story with strong female characters but not alpha females - I don't like alpha females, then Dear Agony by Georgia Cates.
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...
It's time for serial killer time to strike again with Sean Slater's new Detective Jacob Striker novel out titled with the same name as a popular children's game "Snakes and Ladders". Review: Snakes and Ladders - Detective Jacob Striker Book #2 - Sean Slater - March 2012 It's amazing how much a cover can get you to read a book and then you discover, well I actually like this author as I picked up Sean Slater's first book "The Survivor" due to the fact that the cover had a hockey mask and reminded me of Friday the 13th and I really enjoyed the novel as well as the fact it was a school shooting which for some reason I enjoy reading about as it fascinates me ( just to add - I'm not pyschotic LOL) . When I discovered Sean Slater had a new one coming out, I picked it up and was again fascinated and drawn in as he had chosen another angle and field that I am interested in probably due to the fact that my dad works in that industry of mental health...
