Review: Fame - Book #1 Not Like in the Movies Series - Lauren McKellar - February 2016



Madison had life all worked out and this birthday should have been perfect as not only was she turning 23, she was up for a promotion at work and getting married in two weeks to her perfect fiancé. However, Madison's world crashed when her best friend got the promotion she deserved, she got moved to a department that covered healthy green living instead of fashion which was her world, and then to make it worst, she came home early and caught her fiancé bonking a girl from his job named Canada. If that wasn't bad enough, both Madison and her now ex-fiancé work in the magazine industry and are bound to bang into one another at events. When Madison is allowed to attend a wellness retreat in Bali for work, she jumps on the opportunity to at least get some time away and clear her head. Madison arrives in Bali and is also on the island filming a new movie is Hollywood actor Tate Masters. Over a night of drinks, the pair connect and imagine Madison's surprise when she realizes that she just slept with a Hollywood actor and now the next time she meets him, she will let him have it as he just turned her into the worst thing she hates - a cheater. To the world, Tate Masters is in a relationship with actress Mikaela, but the truth is not what it seems. Maybe visiting the island was just the perfect remedy for Madison as she is not only rediscovering herself, finding happiness but also a possible new romance. Fame was a good read and one I waited so long to read as I am busy trying to clear my kindle of reads, I have had for years like this one. The other thing I loved about this book was that it was set in Australia mainly , being across the ditch - I often feel at home with Australian set books.

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
