Skipping Stones

Review: Skipping Stones - JB McGee - September 2013
Alex's parents were off on the holiday of a lifetime leaving Alex with her grandparents for the summer, that was until a tragedy hit their town and caused a car crash which left Alex's parents dead. Now she has had her whole life uprooted and can't cope. So she runs to her safe spot, where she meets a young guy called Drew Foster. He seems to be the only one she can talk to, she feels connected to him, and over the summer, the two of them end up getting pretty cozy. Drew is the only one who seems to be able to pull Alex out of her grief spiral and help her move forward. The pair of them will become each other's lifeline, that is until Drew disappears without a trace and Alex is left wondering what happened to the guy she fell in love with. Years pass, and she has never forgotten about the boy who disappeared. Alex is now serving in the army as a Medic when she catches a glimpse of someone familiar - just a split second - the voice and the eyes. However, when she inquires about the name, nobody has heard of a Drew Foster, so she believes she imagined things. The book progresses further with more death and saddened moments, and Alex finally can find the one she calls Drew Foster and learn the truth about why he vanished.  This was a sweet story, and when she finally saw him again after all those years, inside, I was rejoicing.
If you need an edgy NA and a sweet friendship reunited story, then check out Skipping Stones by JB McGee.

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
