The String (Deadly Games #1)


Review: The String - Book #1 Deadly Games - Caleb Breakey - July 2019

This book starts with a punch, with a bang as we meet our serial killer known as The Conductor.  He is giving a woman named Janet a dangerous choice. Do what he says or he will kill her dog and her sister. We soon learn that this killer has what he calls his puppets who are pieces on a string and if they don't do what he says - the consequences can be dangerous and people get hurt and the others prior suffer the same thing as when a string gets knotted it has to be cut off at the knot and started again.  For the string to work, everyone has to play their part and follow the rules. The latest person on the string is Markus Haas. Markus isn't one to stand by and see anybody get hurt as he is all about standing up and doing what is right. Markus holds quite a high ethic level and if anyone can solve this and bring it to an end it is Markus. However, can Markus follow the clues or will his heart and brain be torn with his decisions when they start hitting and hurting the ones, he loves the most? When you are pushed to the point and told to choose - them or yourself? Who do you choose? It is human instinct to choose ourselves over others and the String will prove just how selfish humans can be when it comes to the crunch and that we do live in a dog-eat-dog world.
This was a really good romantic suspense and I am now looking at seeing if I can source the next book in the series as it ended with a new person and an ooooh moment.

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
