Long Live the Rebel

Review: Long Live the Rebel - E.L Irwin - May 2019


AJ Adams has just discovered that her real dad was Jake Daniels and now he has passed away and left her his entire estate including a house in Sequim, Washington.  I loved this book as AJ Adams happens to be a military romance writer which is pretty neat and I also love the idea of long-lost relatives and family. AJ arrives and meets the next-door neighbor and close confidante of Jake Daniels - Ryler. Most are happy for AJ except for her mother whom they have always had an up and down relationship with as she lied about Jake and a stalker fan on AJ's writing blog called Amber.  What happens though when AJ is away and someone breaks into her boarding house and then decides to up the ante by killing her landlord Mrs. Carson. This part made me think about what we put online and how much of our personal life that we share as it can make us open to the wrong people as they may become obsessed. I also enjoyed the interactions between Ryler and AJ as you could see that Ryler wanted AJ but due to his PTSD and past hurt in relationships, he was vulnerable and flawed and I loved how the author portrayed this as it's nice to read about "real genuine characters". Long Live the Rebel by EL Irwin was a really enjoyable read and I found myself overall enjoying it more than I thought I would with the right amount of twists, romantic suspense, and new relationships.  Long Live the Rebel by EL Irwin was my last read for 2021.

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
