Review: “Perfect”
This book found its way to me via a book club. I was looking for a good story, and I liked the synopsis. The Premise Seryna has lived a safe existence throughout her teenage life, sticking to her close-knit clique of friends and enjoying her...

Review: “The Dead Girl’s Stilettos”
I haven’t really been a huge fan of the mystery genre since my childhood days with “Nancy Drew” and “Hardy Boys”, and I only recently learned what a “cozy mystery” is. However, when I first saw this posted on a fellow author’s Instagram feed, the...

Review: “Defying Gravity”
I chose this book from an ARC program because I was feeling to read a romance that had a deeper story than the typical boy-meets-girl and happily-ever-after, and this certainly fit the bill. The Premise Belle has been acting as a mother for most of...

Review: “Hold Me”
I grabbed a copy of this book via an ARC program. Usually a mob plot is a hard “no” for me — I prefer to watch that kind of content on TV. But the prologue blew me away, and I took a leap of faith....

Review: “Nerdelicious”
This book came to me via an ARC program, and I chose it because I was in the mood for a romantic comedy. However it turned out to be less comedy than I had anticipated. The Premise Fred (short for Fredericka) returns to Blue Falls,...

Review: “Falling For Home”
This book came to me via an ARC program, and I chose it because I was in the mood for a clean, wholesome romance. The Premise Lucy returns to her small-town home of Angel Lake, jilted by a bad work experience and in need of...

Review: “The Wrong Kind of Love”
I’ve had varied reads recently, but I’m getting back to my goal of understanding tropes to help develop and/or market my own writing, which is trope-free: unpredictable, real-life romance with dubious “heroes/heroines”. I liked the premise of this one because I hadn’t read a “twin”...

Review: “Burning Bridges”
This came to me via a book club, and I chose it because I was in the mood for a secret-baby romance with a twist, and this seemed to fit the bill. I noticed the blurb doesn’t mention a big factor, which makes it hard...
