The third book in "The Girl" series is The Yellow Vest. The book starts with Lena's wedding and coming up for the wedding is a group of her engineering friends from college. One of those friends is Emily. Her engineer dreams haven't been as exciting as she wished and she now officially has no life as her boyfriend of five years has dumped her and she is in a job she wishes she could quit as really, all she is doing is counting cracks in surfaces. A job that any dummy could do. At the wedding , Emily is re-introduced to her college best friend Will who we can see that beneath the surface there is a bit of unrequited love going on. The story then begins with Emily getting a new direction on her life and moves to the outback and takes a job where Will is working. Meanwhile at the site where Will works we meet the big boss Mark aka Casear - he is grieving for his dead wife and is awful to work for but what will happen when he meets the owner of the motel units that his guys rent out - Charlotte ? She is someone who will not back down and Mark finds her a challenge. Can these two overcome the personal problems shadowing in the background that is forcing them to hold themselves back ? Will Emily find her Prince Charming in Will or when Trent returns with a "I made a big mistake and will you marry me" speech - will she choose him ?

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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
