Midnight Sacrifice (Midnight, #2)

Review: Midnight Sacrifice - Book #2 Midnight Series - Melinda Leigh - April 2013



One of my favorite mystery authors to read is Melinda Leigh and being currently in a bit of a reading rut as didn't feel like another romance, I decided to give a mystery a read. This book started with a punch as we have our main female character and her best friend finishing work when their boss pulls up with a knife and attacks the pair. Lucky for Mandy and Jed,  a passerby was in town and stops the attack and helps Jed, and gives him a fighting chance. The book then jumps four months later and turns out their knight in shining armor was Danny. He was also on the track hunting Nathan as he kidnapped his sister Jaynie. Now four months later, the case for Nathan has gone cold and the police presume he is dead. Mandy knows this isn't true as she has been receiving threats in the mail as Mandy has a secret relating to Nathan. When a local fisherman and his son Hunter go missing, it looks like Nathan is back and picking up where he left off four months ago. The book then jumps into Nathan's past where we learn his mother had a degenerative brain disease and now Nathan has it. His Uncle back then used Celtic mythology and artifacts to call on the Celtic gods to heal his sister. Nathan believes if he can make a great sacrifice to the gods he and his son will be spared. Can Mandy/ Danny find Nathan and discover who's been helping him, before more innocent people are murdered and sacrificed to the Gods? Find out in this mystery which can be read as a standalone by Melinda Leigh.

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...
