Steal Her Breath: A Detective Nessa Ainsley Novella (Mercy Harbor Thriller)

Review: Steal Her Breath - Book #1 Nessa Ainsley Series - Melinda Woodhall - June 2021



This year, I discovered the author Melinda Woodhall and have been faithfully going through her entire book lists. When I saw that she had written about Nessa Ainsley who is now the chief of Willow Bay PD, I immediately wanted to read it as I have just finished to date the Veronica Lee Series and I had fallen in love with all the characters and wasn't ready to say goodbye. This series is Nessa before she even arrived in Willow Bay and she has just made Detective with Rosewood PD and on her first day, she is taken to a murder of a college girl. It turns out later that Rosewood has had a peeping tom but he hasn't until now reached the level of murder. With no evidence, Nessa and her new partner are going to have to take it to the streets. What will happen though when they have another murder and it looks like all the evidence points to the same guy, but Nessa's gut instincts tell her it is a copycat. Steal Her Breath is also pre-kids for Nessa and Jerry as we read the lead-up to her falling pregnant with her first child.

Steal Her Breath by Melinda Woodhall is "Nessa's Origin Story". I am now interested to see whether she decides to further Nessa's story and have a go at any of the other characters as would love to read Frankie's especially with Leo Steele and how he helped get Frankie off when he was wrongly accused. Fans of Kendra Elliot and Melinda Leigh will love Melinda Woodhall’s books.

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...
