Review of ‘Life pushes you along’ by Emma Sterner-Radley.
This is the debut novella by Emma Sterner-Radley. The premise of the book is that if people are stuck in their personal situations, “life pushes you along” in many different ways: it can be by chance, by self determination or by someone else’s help. The latter is what happens to Zoe, a 26 year old […]
Review of ‘Sins of Our Fathers’ by A. Rose Mathieu
This is the debut novel by this author who has delivered a page-turner packed of twists and turns with an unexpected ending. If you are interested in the romance aspect, unfortunately, there isn’t much of it. Moreover, the main characters don’t share much time in the plot together. However, I think the author is going […]
Review of ‘Lightning strikes’ by Cass Sellars
This is the debut novel by this author, the first of her Lightning series. It’s a romance between recent divorcee Parker Duncan and one night stand extraordinaire Sidney Hyatt. They meet, none of them wanting a commitment, but the attraction is stronger. You can guess the rest as this is a romance. Nothing wrong with […]
Review of ‘Ask, tell’ by EJ Noyes

Review of ‘Capturing Jessica’ by Jane Hardee
This is the debut novel by Jane Hardee. It is a sweet romance between two best friends who both harbour feelings for each other and are too afraid to confess. The plot is based in a stereotypical butch / femme relationship between Michael, a sculptor, (the book never explains why she has a masculine name) […]
Review of ‘Rewriting the ending’ by HP Tune.
‘Rewriting the ending’ is the first book by Australian author H. P. Tune. I appreciate the effort and time invested in writing a book but unfortunately, it didn’t work for me. I have some issues with this book starting by the way it’s been marketed. Judging from the blurb and cover (I know what they […]
Review of ‘Trigger’ by Jessica L. Webb.
This is the first book by Jessica Webb which I started to read without big expectations, just interested in the book description. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by Ms. Webb’s original plot, proficient writing skills and knowledge on how to tell a story. Even if the story can be categorised as […]
Review of ‘Miss Match’ by Fiona Riley.
This is a very entertaining slow-burn romance. It’s the story of two women falling in love, as simple as that, with no big dramas or angst. I have to admit that I didn’t expect this story judging from the book’s title and cover but, as the saying goes, don’t judge a book by its cover… […]
