Confusing
Quite a confusing read, and one that I’m still not sure about what happened after finishing it!
We follow four women Dulcie, Elizabeth, Annie and Liza after they get a summons from a solicitor about a potential inheritance they have to decide whether they are going to accept or not. It is stipulated that whilst deciding they can’t speak to their family otherwise they forfeit the inheritance. We follow the women as they try to make their decisions as well as following them through their day to day lives, which are all extremely different. One is a potter, one a dancer, one a head hunter and one a teacher. Their way of making the decisions although different and more in keeping with their personalities, were also similar in some ways.
Although I enjoy the idea behind the whole book, I spent the majority of it confused. Even at the end, I was still confused and it was only because I was reading along on Pigeonhole and had the pleasure of Nikki Vallance answering questions that fellow readers had that I understood what had happened, but without that I’m not sure that I would have completely understood the ending.
The writing was beautiful, but maybe in order to be less confusing the chapters for each character could have been slightly longer and with more obvious time frames.
I want to thank pigeonhole and Nikki Vallance for allowing me to read this book for free, and I want to thank Nikki for trying to answer all of the questions that everyone had without giving away any of the plot, and for explaining it to those of us who were still confused at the end!

High Moor ( book 1)
By Graeme Reynolds
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When John Simpson hears of a bizarre animal attack in his old home town of High Moor, it stirs memories of a long forgotten horror. John knows the truth. A werewolf stalks the town once more, and on the night of the next full moon, the killing will begin again. He should know. He survived a werewolf attack in 1986, during the worst year of his life.

It's 1986 and the town is gripped in terror after the mutilated corpse of a young boy is found in the woods. When Sergeant Steven Wilkinson begins an investigation, with the help of a specialist hunter, he soon realises that this is no ordinary animal attack. Werewolves are real, and the trail of bodies is just beginning, with young John and his friends smack in the middle of it.

Twenty years later, John returns to High Moor. The latest attack involved one of his childhood enemies, but there's more going on than meets the eye. The consequences of his past actions, the reappearance of an old flame and a dying man who will either save or damn him are the least of his problems. The night of the full moon is approaching and time is running out.

But how can he hope to stop a werewolf, when every full moon he transforms into a bloodthirsty monster himself?

I absolutely loved this book! It was good old hammer horror vibe werewolf fun with a little twist of some modern tales. So interesting and gory the characters were brilliant from the “goodies” to the “baddies”. I didn’t want to put it down best werewolf book I’ve read for a long time. Highly recommend!

NEW NEBRASKA HEAT is the second full-length novel in the New Nebraska series, and features a new quintet of Serenity, Hunter, Bryce, Sebastian, and Dagger.

Serenity escaped from a vampire's den, traumatised and scarred in more ways than one. She gets a job at Hunter's nightclub, but applies for a job as a designer at Bryce's company. She meets Sebastian through his mum, and Dagger through an ongoing case. All four men feel a connection with Serenity, but all four also take it slowly and carefully, taking into consideration her past.

This is a long book, but well-paced, with plenty of action going on, as well as slower, softer times, where Serenity and her men get to know each other. I loved the game of Truth or Dare, especially Dagger's dare at the end. I was hoping that because of the bond, Bryce would be able to touch others too, not just Serenity, but it doesn't seem that way.

One big plus for me was getting to see Cece and her men again. It was a delight catching up with them, and I'm glad Cece and Serenity are friends.

The overall storyline in this book has more of an ongoing arc to it, and I wonder if Jasper and the new human will play a part in the next book, or if it will go in a different direction.

This was a hot, caring, and action-filled story that kept my attention from beginning to end. Absolutely recommended by me.
