Too Late

Review: Too Late - Colleen Hoover - November 2016

Lately, I have read everyone going on about how great Colleen Hoover was, and people only just discovered her books. I was one of those readers who discovered her back in 2012/2013 when I finally decided to read her Slammed series which at the time was her only book published. She was in the mix of the starters in the "New Adult" genre. Scrolling through my kindle, I decided to read one of her older titles I still had - Too Late. This book is one of her lesser-known titles and it was so good. After reading this, you can see that the romantic suspense that we saw in Verity first developed in Too Late.  In Too Late, I have to admit as I was reading, I had Molly McAdams's series Forgiving Lies in my mind as I felt the two books were similar with the whole undercover cop storyline. In Too Late, we first meet Sloane who lives with her boyfriend Asa. Asa we can see is a jerk and a drug dealer, who treats Sloane like a princess but in other parts, he cheats on her. Luke and his friend Ryan have been given the assignment to go undercover and bring in Asa. Luke's identity is Carter and as Carter, he gets close to Sloane. As the book goes along, we read as sparks fly between Sloane and Carter but Sloane has one goal in mind - to save her brother Stephen and she can't do that without Asa's help or so she believes. Can Carter get her away from this life and save her from Asa's clutches if she stays, he will ruin her and drain her goodness away. Find out in this edgy and angsty New Adult read "Too Late".  Too Late’s theme is the reason I fell in love with the New Adult romance genre those many moons ago.

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
