Without a Trace

Review: Without a Trace - Carissa Ann Lynch - April 2019
As soon as I saw this book released, I got all excited and went to read it straight away as Carissa Ann Lynch is one of my go-to mystery writers. I love all her thrillers and mystery novels and Without a Trace was no different. This book starts with the main character, Nova running away from her abusive husband, along with their daughter Lily. Nova has rented a small house which she found through an agency online. Nova and Lily settle in for the night only for Nova to wake up and discover that Lily is gone, she's not in her bed, and all that sits in the bed is this strange little bunny soft toy. Frantic Nova calls the police to help her find her missing daughter, but as the book goes along and we meet Nova's ex-husband, it looks like Lily doesn't exist and makes readers question Nova's sanity. I have to admit I loved Carissa's writing as even I found myself thinking that Nova was cray-cray in parts and I was like OMG did she imagine all this? What's real and what's not? Without a Trace was a slower paced novel compared to her others but this one will keep readers on their toes and going is Lily real or not as with the number of twists and turns, you as the reader even start to question your trains of thought during this story. Without a Trace was another excellent mystery/thriller, and I look forward to seeing what comes next for Carissa Ann Lynch in the world of books.

  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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
