The Fortuna Coin

Review: The Fortuna Coin - Karen Ann Hopkins - October 2021


Looking for a good time travel romance with a hint of suspense? This book is set around the Fortuna Coin, a coin that gives you second chances. This part reminded me of the movie 17 Again as in this book, it starts with Wendy getting married to Ben Engel and her four daughters supporting her until her ex turns up and disaster strikes. After the disaster strikes, she finds herself waking up and its years earlier and Wendy is waking up after fainting at a nightclub with her best friend Julie. No husband, no children. Wendy has been given a second chance at life. However, will she have to live through horrible choices again and her life to finally gain happiness?  The Fortuna Coin was a slow-paced story but good romantic suspense and a little frustrating as you wanted Wendy to make the right decision and not make the same mistakes over again.
The Fortuna Coin reminded me of a cross between The Time Traveller's Wife and Where Rainbows End.

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
