Tell No Lies (Quinn & Costa Thriller, #2)

Review: Tell No Lies - Book #2 Quinn and Costa Thrillers - Allison Brennan - March 2021

This book starts with a bang when we meet two college students. One is all about the environment and saving the world and the other wants to marry her and go along with her ideas. One weekend, Emma wants to go on a hike and take some samples of the water as she noticed birds are dying. During the hike, she is killed and soon her boyfriend is claiming it's murder and not the accident that the police seem to think it was. What did Emma find that someone wanted to shut her up? The book then jumps to another side of Patagonia, Arizona where we learn an industrial company is being investigated for illegally dumping their waste into the waters and killing/ getting the locals sick. We are then introduced to the FBI Agents Quinn and Costa as they are thrown into the undercover world and start investigating the company. With agents situated around the smalltown in places like the Bar and the workforce, something must turn up to allow them to solve the crimes. What will happen though when the main suspect is found murdered and executed? During the latter part of the novel, a third storyline pops up about human trafficking and getting the illegals across the border. Are all these three incidents connected or are they individual coincidences? Find out in this Environmental Eco-Fiction Thriller. Even though Tell No Lies is Book #2 of the Quinn and Costa series, it is easy enough to be read as a stand-alone crime novel.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  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
