Review: Sable Peak - Book #6 The Edens - Devney Perry - December 2023

This review is a bittersweet one as it comes to the end of the Eden series, besides the last two novellas I have to read.  I have enjoyed this series overall as I do love reading family sagas where each of the books are based on one of the members of the family and it's great too if the family is a "big one" as it means more books for the readers. In the Eden family, we have one more child left - their youngest son Matteo. At the end of the previous book, which was Lyla and Vance's story - Crimson River, we meet Vera Gallagher who was the daughter of Cormac - the guy who attacked Lyla and who Vance thought was dead and murdered along with her other sisters and mother.  In the past months, after Cormac disappeared and Vera stayed behind to try and get a normal life built for her,  she had been living with Lyla and Vance. Now though, she has moved into the loft of one of the other Edens. When Vera first spots Matteo, it is for her love at first sight. Not on Matteo's end as life is about to chuck him a few curveballs, including him ending up a single dad to Alaina. Vera is nothing but patient and gives her time, that is until she decides after a year and sees him flirting, she tells him straight - she isn't waiting for him anymore. The thing though Matteo loves her too and his daughter loves Ve-wa too. Can Matteo prove to Vera that he loves her and that she isn't this fragile person everyone has been treating her? Will Vera let him in and finally talk to him about the night her sisters died and what life has been like for her? I have to admit, my favorite part of this story was the Edens camping trip - it was just amazing and caring family vibes, that make you feel like - I want them as my family as my own family was very individualistic and after my mum died who I was close too, I drifted apart from them - not that I didn't and continue to try.  I now am excited to try Devney Perry's other series and get hooked on their worlds.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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

  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

A Love Letter From Emily White - Author

A Love Letter from Emily White to her Readers: It's a month for love and there's nothing I love more about the publishing life than meeting new readers. That's why, a few months ago, I made a pretty huge announcement. I doubt it had any far-reaching effects. And I seriously doubt many people even heard about it. But I want everyone to know: After doing ALL the things and checking off ALL the lists, I never really felt like I'd accomplished anything in my career. I'd grown up dreaming about signing a contract with a publishing company, and I did that. But after that was done, I dreamt about the next contract, and having my books read around the world, and maybe hitting a bestseller list. And I did all that. But still not so much happiness. I had moments of happiness. Of absolute joy, even. And it hit me last November that those moments came when I was meeting new readers or getting emails from them. They came in certain minutes of the day when a
