Review: 1st Shock - Book #1 A Shock Sisters Mystery - Misty Evans and Adriana Giordano - September 2019

I have found this year for me has been the year of reading mysteries and thrillers. The other thing I have been trying to do for 2023 is to clear my Kindle of my older reads and this week, one of those reads was 1st Shock. I haven't read anything of these authors before, but this was a fun read and in ways reminded me of a cross between Bones with Temperance Brennan and TV shows like Criminal Minds with the profiling and then Rizzoli and Isles as the dynamic between the sisters reminded me of Jane and Maura. In 1st Shock we are introduced to the characters Meg Shock who is a forensic sculptor and an empath Charlie Shock who used to work for the FBI as a profiler and Matt who is their investigator and hands-on guy, we also have Haley - their receptionist who is studying Criminology. JJ who is an FBI agent has brought the girls a case, as he needs some help identifying a few skulls. This leads Charlie to Mickey - a serial killer, she helped put away five years ago. The thing is though that this latest victim is too fresh to have been killed by Mickey but it matches his MO perfectly. Have the girls got a copycat on their hands? Can they solve the crime before one of them finds themselves right in the crosshairs of the serial killer? Find out in the first book of this great forensic crime/thriller 1st Shock by Misty Evans and Adriana Giordano. I am excited to now read Book #2 as the preview at the end of this book, made it exciting.

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
