Heist (Diamond Doms, #2)

Review: Heist - Book #2 Diamond Doms Series - Ivy Nelson - February 2020



I had enjoyed Book #1 which was the introduction of the Sutton Adults - Holly and Patrick Sutton and then Holly's meeting of Eli Barrett who turned out to be her dad – Nicholas Sutton’s competitor and her brother's business partner and also Eli and her brother had a side career at Club Solitaire as Dom’s. I found Book #1 easy to read and I loved the character of Holly. As I enjoyed Book #1 Blood, I was looking forward to Book #2 and with a title - Heist. I thought this was going to be just as good or even better. However, for me this one I struggled with as it took me in increments over three days to read which is slow for me but I got about 57% through the book, so I decided to persevere rather than give up. I did manage to finish it and it was a good read with a bit of predictability when the true villain was revealed near the end. Book #2 tells the story of Patrick Sutton and Austin Yates.  There has been chemistry sizzling between the two and it looks like things are heating up between the pair as they become Sub/Dom partners but then Patrick is accused of stealing the Pumpkin Diamond and pulling a major heist as the diamond is priceless and Patrick has the most motive. He hires Austin as his lawyer but soon, the relationship between client/lawyer starts to muddy especially with their extracurricular activities at Club Solitaire. Patrick is quite a stubborn and prideful Dom which frustrated the hell out of me as Austin was only trying to do her job and there were plenty of times throughout the book, that I was screaming "Get Over Yourself Patrick and Grow the Hell Up". To me, Heist by Ivy Nelson would be considered a borderline 3Ps read. In saying this I am going to be continuing with the series and looking forward to discovering Garrett's story and getting to know him better, as he has been a less prominent character in the series to date.

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
