Review: THE NIGHTMARE ROOM: SHADOW GIRL by R.L. Stine

 


Selena’s cousin just loved to torture and humiliate her. And she was staying with her for a whole month. Geez! Wait, did her mom just leave her there? Oh no! And what truth was she talking about?

 

When she tries to reach her mom, Selena makes another startling discovery: her mom didn’t exist and no one ever heard of her. What?!

 

Soon, the truth is revealed: Selena was Shadow Girl, a masked, caped superhero whose destiny was to fight her arch enemy—her cousin—Red Raven. Whoa!

 

It was written in the Book of Fates that Shadow Girl would kill Red Raven. Oh dear!

 

This was another R.L. Stine winner. The ending was a little too convenient, but I liked the superhero thing. Very cool to have superpowers!

Review: MANUSCRIPTS AND DEADLY MOTIVES by Cindy Bell

 


A dead writer in Dune House. Could it possibly have to do with her controversial manuscript? Suzy and Mary couldn’t deal with the fact that someone was murdered under their very roof while they were sleeping, so they were on the case. It’s always fun to watch those two follow clues and suspects. A good mystery!

Review: CONCERTS CAN BE DEADLY by Cindy Bell

 


Jo and Samantha had won tickets to a rock concert…and it was quite a shocking show. Literally! The lead guitarist had been electrocuted by his electric guitar in front of the entire crowd. Yikes! Samantha just knew it wasn’t an accident. It was murder.

 

I always enjoy watching Samantha, Jo, Eddy, and Walt put their heads together and follow clues. A good mystery!

Blog Tour: SECRET KEEPER by Victoria Pinder



House of Morgan


Contemporary Romance

Date Published: 07-29-2025

Publisher: Love in a book




Anthony Morgan is the last man I should ever work for.
Too bad I don’t have a choice.

It started with an email from Jennifer Gonzales.
It ended with me walking into a boardroom face-to-face with the man who once loved her.
The same man who looks at me like I’m a threat to everything he built.

And maybe I am.

He’s cold. Controlled.
Italian billionaire in an Armani suit, hiding bruises behind bank accounts.
He thinks I’m still loyal to my former best friend—the woman who broke his brother’s heart and stole something she should’ve never touched.

But I’m not here for Belle.
I’m here to do a job.

Security.
Protection.
No distractions.

Except Anthony Morgan is a distraction.

His eyes strip me bare.
His voice is a seduction I never saw coming.
And every time we fight, it feels like foreplay.

Getting too close to him is a mistake.
Falling for him?
Dangerous.

But if there’s one thing I’ve learned from war zones and heartbreak…
It’s that the most forbidden fire burns the hottest.

And Anthony Morgan is pure flame.

 


About the Author

USA Today Bestselling Author, Victoria Pinder grew up in Irish Catholic Boston before moving to the Miami sun though she left that for a while to live in New Orleans, Denver and now Pittsburgh. She started single but the husband and then children joined in on the fun. She’s worked in engineering, then lawyer, then teacher, and finally novelist. She refused to one day turn 50 and realize she had nothing but her career and hours at a desk.

During all this time and travel, she always wrote stories to entertain herself or calm down. Her parents are practical minded people demanding a job, and Victoria spent too many years living other people’s expectations, but when she sat down to see what skill she had that matched what she enjoyed doing, writing became so obvious. The middle school year book when someone wrote in it that one day she’d be a writer made sense when she turned thirty.

She’s always been amazing, adventurous and assured. It’s what gets her through the day.
