My Review This was a book that Amazon presented to me and it sounded okay. Well, it was more than okay, it was terrific. A comet is heading for earth and people were chosen to go to the bunker. Firstly they were put through a rigorous training program before being put to sleep for two… Continue reading Wake Me Up After The Apocalypse by Jordan Rivet

Fir Real This time by Claire Shaw
My Review I can honestly say I’ve never read a book like this before. It was quirky and full of humour. The interaction between Jack and Neveah had the sort of dry humour I absolutely adore. Neveah inherited a Christmas tree farm, and Jack was the worker who kept things going. He thought a woman… Continue reading Fir Real This time by Claire Shaw
How Grimm Saved Christmas by David J. Gatward
Having read the whole twenty-two book series, I didn’t know what to expect from this prequel novella. What I got was a crime, a community and Christmas. No dead bodies here, instead a delightful tale from the detectives of the Yorkshire Dales. I really enjoyed it. Petty theft, poignant stories, a happy event and lots… Continue reading How Grimm Saved Christmas by David J. Gatward
A Winter’s Kiss by Claire Dugmore
My Review What I liked most is that the story started out one way and completely changed to something different. Felicity is feeling lonely at Christmas time and calls on her sister Emily, and her two children to help cheer her up. They do, and it’s really fun as they get involved in all the… Continue reading A Winter’s Kiss by Claire Dugmore

My Review When Sons of Anarchy first hit our screens, I loved it. Part way through it became more violent and I couldn’t watch anymore. The thing I loved most was the romance between Jax and Tara. It captured my imagination and that’s when I discovered motorcycle club romance in fiction. I’ve read a few… Continue reading Bishop by Claire Shaw
The Towers, Book 3 by H L Heidemann
My Review I read this over three days, most of it on Saturday when the weather was stormy. I cosied up in my chair with Radio 2 playing softly in the background and lost myself in this story. It was wonderful and the perfect way to enjoy a book. We reached the climax of the… Continue reading The Towers, Book 3 by H L Heidemann
Release Day For My Book Toxic, a Post Apocalyptic Romance
I’m absolutely thrilled to re-release my own book Toxic, a post-apocalyptic romance. It was last on sale in 2018, and in 2022 I took all of my books down to rewrite them. Toxic was the final one to return, and it’s the one I’m most excited about because it has backstory. In 2017, author Karina… Continue reading Release Day For My Book Toxic, a Post Apocalyptic Romance
The Towers, Book II by H L Heidemann
My Review I absolutely loved this story. Book two was extremely intense, especially the relationship between Avril and Donavon, their fight to survive the long walk, and their journey through a dead zone. The author’s idea of the future is probably the most realistic I have ever read. Life feels similar to our own, but… Continue reading The Towers, Book II by H L Heidemann
