Missing Heiress (A Jackie Harlan Mystery Book 2)


Review: Missing Heiress - Book #2 Jackie Harlan Mystery - Marti Talbott - November 2013

Nicholas Gladstone has passed away and with his passing comes his estate which totals to about USD 1.6 Million. In his will reading, he has left the whole estate to his granddaughter Georgia James. The thing is though that nobody can find her and it is like she doesn't exist. Now his daughter and her con-artist husband are contesting the will and saying that there is no daughter. It is up to Austin who looked up to Nicholas like a father to find the missing heiress and he now only has two weeks to find her otherwise the judge is going to rule in favor which will not have a great outcome. Austin has hired the assistance of Jackie Harlan and her company to track down Georgia James. They have three options - we have a Georgia James who died in a car crash , The new maid who has been hired to clean Laura's house and knows more about the family that she is leading on and finally the mysterious Maggie - a common and struggling worker who is hanging on by a thread in her job as her boss Nicole likes to fire someone daily for no apparent reason.  Can Jackie find the mysterious heiress? I have to say I quite enjoyed this book as wasn't too sure what to expect at first. I do love my mysteries and the whole idea of a missing heiress or searching for someone with not much to go on as always fascinated me. I am also glad that Laura's husband got what was coming to him as hated him from the get-go. If you are looking for a new author to discover, check out Marti Talbott and her Jackie Harlan Mysteries series.

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...
