Review: Happily Ever Ninja - Book #5 Knitting in the City Series - Penny Reid - January 2016 Happily Ever Ninja is a book that should be read after the Novella Ninja at First Sight as Happily Ever Ninja is written 18 years after Ninja at First Sight where Fiona and Greg have been married for a while and have two children Jack - 8 and Grace - 5 years old. We learn that Greg's job takes him away from the family quite a bit and so Fiona is almost like a single mother but thank goodness to an old family friend and neighbour Matt - she has someone she can rely on especially to help out with Jack.

  Review: Ninja at First Sight - Book #4.75 Knitting in the City Series - Penny Reid- November 2015 In Ninja at First Sight, we go back 18 years where we first meet Fiona and Greg.

    Review: Just Call Me Ninja - Clare Haltom - April 2014 Callista Trent has always preferred to stay invisible and with her mother's job it's easy as she never stays in one place for long. Callista's mother is a travel writer , this move though is going to be a bit longer as her mother has been commissioned to write a book about the town. So now Callista is being forced to live in a podunk town and even worst attend a public school where because of her accent etc she is being nicknamed Eastern Bloc. While out saving a neighbour's cat one day, Callista stumbles upon a secret society - a training area for Ninjas who do missions in the small town and they want Callista on their team. Callista on the other hand, doesn't want anything to do with Ninjas, she's not even sure Ninja's are really a thing. With the persuasion of cute guy Nick who of course sort-of ends up being Callista's love interest - or at least one of them, she reluctantly j...
