Review: Until It Fades - K.A Tucker - June 2017

It's been a while since I read a K.A. Tucker as years ago I read her Ten Tiny Breaths series and then Be The Girl etc and loved them. Scrolling around this morning trying to find something to read, I clicked on Until It Fades by K.A. Tucker. This book starts with 17-year-old Catherine being dragged to the police station by her mother to make a statement. Catherine has been involved with her art teacher Scott Phillips. Catherine doesn't want to as she knows the consequences, but her mother insists and soon Catherine is branded as a slut, a liar, and the girl who ruined a great teacher and family's reputation. Now seven years later, Catherine is 24 years old works in the diner, and is a single mother to her five-year-old daughter Brenna. Nobody knows the true identity of her daughter's dad and she wants to keep it a secret, also she just wants to live life away from the spotlight as she would rather be forgotten than forever known as the girl who slept with her teacher.  Her life goes to plan until one night, driving home she witnesses a car crash and goes to help before the car bursts into flames. With adrenaline pumping, she manages to save one of them and sadly the other is already dead. Turns out the person she saved was Ice Hockey legend Brett Madden, son of famous actress Meryl Price. Nobody knows that it was Catherine and she hopes to keep it that way, that is until someone wanting their own 15 minutes of fame leaks her name on TV. Now Catherine is flung back into the spotlight and if she isn't careful, all her past will be revealed and now of course she doesn't just have herself to protect but her five-year-old daughter. Sparks fly between Brett and Catherine, but is it just superficial and he likes her because she saved him or will it be more? What happens when the truth of her daughter's father is revealed? Find out all this and more in this Cinderella tale "Until It Fades" by K.A Tucker - from diner girl to Ice Hockey girlfriend.

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 - 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
