A great read


I thoroughly enjoyed this well written book. It's fun and flirty with some strong primary and secondary characters that support and complement each other. There's lots of different things happening to keep you entertained, two love interests (who would you pick? I know which has my vote!) a little intrigue and a fantastic characters representing a black community of super awesome people. It's refreshing to pick up a book and not have a pretty blonde having a dilemma but an independent black woman with ambition, drive and an advocate for young people of colour to truly be themselves. And to add to this, Zora is a book store owner! She's living every bibliophile's dream.

This is the second instalment in the Ash and Blue series and I found it thrilling. There has been a lot of research gone into this book and it has a very easy flow to read. You can feel the emotions that the characters are going through and the conflict that Ryan feels with some of the decisions he has to make.


It definitely captured me from the first page and I couldn't wait to find out what was going on.


I'm not sure if there will be another one but I would certainly like to see one

I found this novella extremely interesting. There was a lot of information to take in. It's been written from the wife's point of view and you can't seem to work out 100% for guilty or innocent. My first instinct is yep, of course, he's guilty, he's bound to be but then there are little things that could say he's innocent.


I've enjoyed reading this and recommend you read it too.

This story tells the tale of poor Tom and how has been recruited by Unit 13, the bureau of a paranormal detective agency. He's been happy with his desk job, but when one of his colleagues goes on maternity leave, he's thrown into the field and he doesn't have a lot of experience.


This book was an absolute howl. It's a paranormal book with a lot of humour thrown in. I really enjoyed the take that Dan has taken on it and delivered. The style very much reminded me of Terry Pratchett. I'm looking forward to reading more.
