Behind Closed Doors

Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments

Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth, she has charm and elegance. You might not want to like them, but you do.

You’d like to get to know Grace better.

But it’s difficult, because you realise Jack and Grace are never apart.

Some might call this true love. Others might ask why Grace never answers the phone. Or how she can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn’t work. How she can cook such elaborate meals but remain so slim. And why there are bars on one of the bedroom windows.

Sometimes, the perfect marriage is the perfect lie.


Absolutely chilling! The whole book I just couldn’t put it down! It’s 1:37am and I just had to finish it! This is not a book if normally pick up but so glad I did! I had this knot in my stomach that hurt so much till o knew he was dead!! And what a fitting death. Highly recommend!

Sylvia Races Through Time to Save the Day
Sylvia Stryker and her mentor, Neptune, are on a shake down cruise for the latest Moon Trek ship when a computer chip malfunctions. The best way to fix it is to talk to the original scientist who created it, so Neptune takes off. However, when Sylvia figured out the who and the when of Neptune’s mission, she takes off after him. Will she be able to fix the chip without destroying her life?

You’ll notice I didn’t say much about the mystery. That’s because, honestly, it was a little lost in everything else going on in this book. But that’s okay because I was having a grand time. The science fiction element of the plot did fall into a couple of the plot holes these type of stories often have (or I just missed something), but I didn’t mind too much. The story gives Sylvia several chances for some major growth, and those scenes are top notch. And there were plenty of laughs and fun along the way. If you are a fan of these books, you owe it to yourself to pick it up today.

More Event Than Murder
It’s the final week of the year, which means it is time for the annual fundraiser for the library in Silvercrest, Colorado. Like the rest of the town, Emma Starrs is thrilled that the cast of Chasers, the popular mystery TV show, is coming to town to headline the events. However, when murder threatens the event, Emma is asked to step in and help make sure the gala on New Year’s Eve goes off without a hitch. Can she do that?

It's been a couple of years since the first book in this series came out, so I wasn’t sure how much I’d remember about the characters. Fortunately, I was able to slip back into their world without too much effort. Sadly, the mystery was disappointing. The emphasis was more on the planning for the event, and those scenes grew repetitive. We did reach a solution, but parts of it felt forced to me. On the other hand, the characters were charming. I really did enjoy seeing Emma and her family and friends again. I wanted to like this more than I did, but it was mixed for me.
