Deadly Little Scandals (Debutantes, #2)

Review: Deadly Little Scandals - Book #2 Debutantes Series - Jennifer Lynn Barnes - November 2019

One of my favorite YA authors ever since I discovered her book when I was a teen - Tattoo has been Jennifer Lynn Barnes. I just love how her books have this mystery aspect threaded through them but the mystery element doesn't overshadow the story and there are always more twists and turns than one ever initially thought.  Deadly Little Scandals is the second book in the Debutantes series and blew us all away as instead of simply answering our questions from the first book, it created a whole new truckload of questions and very crazy twists and not to mention some twisted characters. At the end of the first book, Sawyer Taft finally got through her first year as a Debutante and discovered the true identity of her Dad and now she is getting to know him - but she still doesn't know if he knows the truth himself.  In Book #2 we have the further story of Sawyer's mother's best friend Ana and what happened to her after she left and her baby and then Sadie's step-mother has just thrown a baby shower for her non-existent child. The family head to the Lake House for a vacation and here more secrets will be uncovered, family members and friends drugged and a secret society will come out of the shadows known as The White Gloves that are all about burying and exposing their members darkest secrets. If you love authors like Natalie D. Richards, Sara Shepard, Karen McManus, and Natasha Preston with their YA thrillers - then Jennifer Lynn Barnes is another author to add to your must-read lists.

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
