Review: MILO MANARA PANDORA’S EYES

 


Was Pandora cursed? Would she have another attack of uncontrolled rage? Those eyes of hers would just turn evil. This had nice illustrations!

 

When Pandora is kidnapped and taken to Turkey, she learns who she really is. It’s a rather interesting story. Funny how that fat cop’s button popped off and hit Pandora’s head.

 

A short, quick read with suspense and action! I would’ve liked to have seen more though. I hope there’s another story like this. Good read!

Review: A PERILOUS PACKAGE by Cindy Bell


While still getting used to her new cottage in an old town, Bobbie was trying to work as a freelance journalist. When seeking out a quote for one of her articles, she never expected to run into an explosion. Who had killed the man with many enemies? Reporter Bobbie was on the hunt for the truth. But the hunt might prove to be more dangerous than she thought with a crime boss that could be after her. Of course, it might not be all bad with a hunky karate teacher as her bodyguard. It’s a mystery you quickly get into. And not only that, but there’s also an old mystery concerning Bobbie’s parents and how they were killed.  A great read!

Review: ICE, ICE MAYBE by Rich Amooi

 


BLOG ONLY

 

How much would it take for you to be a professional male escort? Well, if dating the boss’ gorgeous daughter meant angering the best hockey player enough to win some games, then why not? Plus, the extra money wasn’t too shabby either.

 

For Nolan and Zena, this was a fake date arrangement. I enjoyed the quick wit between the two. The ensuing tension when the fake couple encounter the hockey player was certainly interesting and fun. Even though this had sports in it, which I’m not too crazy about, I enjoyed this much more than I originally gave it credit for, and I’m glad I gave this a second shot. Of course, I didn’t like the sports play-by-play and it was a good thing that it wasn’t the absolute center of the story.

 

It doesn’t take long for all the flirting and kissing to start to feel less fake. As always, I enjoyed the author’s wit, humor, and love that he puts into the story. That’s why I always get books by this author. The scene when Zena catches her parents doing it was priceless and mortifying. The read was slow in some areas, but this was still a good read.

 

Nolan and Zena keep up the charade pretty well…until the star player quits and they had to figure out a way to get him back. It’s one thing after another in this fun and zany story. Sweet and Romantic! I liked it.

Review: HACKING THE HOLIDAYS by Rich Amooi

 


I didn’t know what the writer was talking about in this. I got lost on the first chapter. This is the first book by this author that was sorely disappointed in.
