Review: The Mistletoe Motive - Chloe Liese - December 2021

Have you ever felt that you just don't quite fit in and that life can be a little awkward sometimes? That you wish there were book characters a little more like you? Then Chloe Liese is the author for you. I love this author as she writes all her characters with some kind of disability representation whether it be a simple medical issue like Diabetes or Celiac disease to a proper disability diagnosis like Deafness or Autism/Aspergers Spectrum. Growing up in my family, my mum and two siblings were on the Autistic spectrum and despite myself not being diagnosed, I do know that I have a couple of traits - very hard not to when the genetic link is very strong. My grandfather, some of his family members, some of my cousins, nephews, etc. The other thing I loved about this book was it covered my favorites from being set in a bookshop to the whole online meeting and #meetcute. Set at Christmas time, we have The Mistletoe Motive where we meet two co-workers who are opposites from Mr. Grumpy aka Jonathan to Ms.Sunshine Gabby. They both work at a cute homely bookstore called Bailey's and been given the bad news that one of them will be let go if the sales don't increase which sets a competition for the Christmas season. During this time though, sparks fly and we read as Jonathan and Gabby discover that they aren't that different and that opposites do attract in this Christmas romance - they both just needed that extra push from friends and family to see what was right in front of them.  If you are in the mood for a Midwinter Christmas read, then check out The Mistletoe Motive by Chloe Liese, as you won't be disappointed. I can’t wait to get back into her Bergman Brothers series and read the three books I am missing to finish her booklist.

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: 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...
