Delayed Departure (Passports and Promises, #2)




Review: Delayed Departure - Book #2 Passports and Promises - Abigail Drake - August 2017

Though this is Book #2 in the Passport and Promises series, it can be read as a standalone novel as it is about a different character than Book #1. In Book #2 Bethany is in a relationship with Greg which we later discover is a fake relationship. They were supposed to go to Turkey this summer together and experience life until Greg chucked a wrench in the plans and headed off on an internship in New York. Bethany went alone, and it is here that she starts a hate at first sight relationship with Adam - an Australian T.A on the trip. No matter what Bethany does, he finds a way to pick or make her feel stupid. The thing is though that he doesn't know her and vice versa. As the trip goes on, we are given a more insight look into the relationship and friendship of Greg and Bethany and the arrangement that they have going, we also read as her relationship moves into a love/hate one with Adam. What will happen though when Bethany decides to be with Adam but feels conflicted as she promised to Greg years ago to protect him until he comes of age with his trust fund? What started off as just a trip around Turkey for Bethany will begin the start of finding her path in life and breaking free from the restraints of her friends and family back home and finding a potential love interest and creating new memories.

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...
