#Review #Thriller – Jar Of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier

Leave a comment

* Winner – Best Novel, ITW Thriller Award * Authors on the Air Network – Thriller of the Year * Finalist – Anthony Award for Best Novel * Finalist – Macavity Award for Best Novel *

“Jar of Hearts grabs you by the throat! The perfect blend of riveting characters, chilling details, and gasping twists in this standout thriller will keep you frantically reading until the explosive end.” – Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author of Right Behind You

This is the story of three best friends: one who was murdered, one who went to prison, and one who’s been searching for the truth all these years . . .

When she was sixteen years old, Angela Wong—one of the most popular girls in school—disappeared without a trace. Nobody ever suspected that her best friend, Georgina Shaw, now an executive and rising star at her Seattle pharmaceutical company, was involved in any way. Certainly not Kaiser Brody, who was close with both girls back in high school.

But fourteen years later, Angela Wong’s remains are discovered in the woods near Geo’s childhood home. And Kaiser—now a detective with Seattle PD—finally learns the truth: Angela was a victim of Calvin James. The same Calvin James who murdered at least three other women.

To the authorities, Calvin is a serial killer. But to Geo, he’s something else entirely. Back in high school, Calvin was Geo’s first love. Turbulent and often volatile, their relationship bordered on obsession from the moment they met right up until the night Angela was killed.

For fourteen years, Geo knew what happened to Angela and told no one. For fourteen years, she carried the secret of Angela’s death until Geo was arrested and sent to prison.

While everyone thinks they finally know the truth, there are dark secrets buried deep. And what happened that fateful night is more complex and more chilling than anyone really knows. Now the obsessive past catches up with the deadly present when new bodies begin to turn up, killed in the exact same manner as Angela Wong.

How far will someone go to bury her secrets and hide her grief? How long can you get away with a lie? How long can you live with it? Find out in Jennifer Hillier’s Jar of Hearts.

This book was so good. Like beyond good. I was hooked from the very first page. I’ve never read Jennifer’s books before but I came across a video on TikTok, cause that’s where I’ve been getting most of my book recs from lately, and found this one. I went in completely blind, which I 100% suggest doing. It’s so much more fun that way.

So we meet Geo and the book starts right off with her testifying against her ex-boyfriend. She ends up in jail and the book takes us through her time in jail and through her past as a teen. We find out how she met Calvin, her ex, how she met her friends and so on. It basically takes us through most of her life and I liked the way the author did that.

I was totally invested from the start. By the last 20%, I messaged a friend and was like “I have no idea what’s going on!” – I will say, I managed to predict something but I just didn’t know the why.

I also want to say that I did not like Angela, Geo’s best friend. She came off as selfish and didn’t seem like she treated Geo very well. But at the same time, Geo didn’t treat Angela overly well all the time either. It was an odd dynamic but I guess it worked for them.

This book was everything I look for in a thriller. Twists and turns, engaging characters and it was just…man, it was just everything.

Do I agree with half of the choices Geo made? No, not at all but I’ve never been in her situation before. It just shows that she’s humans and humans make mistakes.

Ugh this book will live rent free in my head for a while.

Oh and if you like dark romance books, this one had a kinda sorta dark romancey vibe. In a totally unhinged and twisted sort of way.

#review #standalone No Dumb Questions by Jason and Travis Kelce

Leave a comment

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Brothers, Super Bowl Champions, and now, published authors. That’s right, authors. Look, we’re as surprised as you.

New Heights hosts Jason and Travis Kelce attempt to tackle some of life’s dumbest questions from the 92%ers. Join us on this discov­ery of knowledge as we cover topics like sports, relationships, parenting, gorilla fights, and many more quandaries that man has pondered since he first gazed upon the stars.

  • FOOTBALL: Why don’t players squirt their own water?
  • CUISINE: Do you pour the cereal first or the milk?
  • SCIENCE: If you could make one of your body parts detachable, which would you choose?


When you think philosophy, you’ll probably think of names like Socrates, Plato, or Aristotle. But none of those men have won a single Super Bowl, so what do they know? No Dumb Questions is a collection of Jason and Travis’s wisest, funniest, and most electric debates that could only come from the collected wisdom of a combined twenty-seven seasons in the NFL.

i bought this book and here is my honest review

The Brother’s who have gotten a hit podcast, a huge football fanbase, and an amazing family at the back. Jason and Travis Kelce have taken a segment from their hit podcast new heights and wrote a book to have all the i think this is probably and really dumb question about anything from football, school, their childhood, future, current life, all in one place. this was a great read but i still dont really understand football like some probably will.

The Old Spice Guys’ Grooming Guidance Guide for Guys with Beards & Other Poems is the debut literary work of Jason and Travis Kelce. The brothers, known mostly for their footballing skills, felt it was time to explore another side of their beards.

Through their experience as football players, Jason and Travis Kelce bring forward, in so many words, what it’s like to put down the football and pick up a pen.

When Owen meets Stasia his werewolf senses howl to life and he’s certain of one thing: Stasia is his.

He’s there to be her bodyguard, not claim her as his mate. His job is close to impossible, especially since his client tries to fire him the moment they meet.
But this werewolf won’t back down.

Stasia’s sick of cocky men and she won’t fall for the cheerfully overbearing bodyguard she’s stuck with. It doesn’t matter that he makes her heart pound and her fantasies run wild.
When Stasia is yanked out of her glittering life of wealth and privilege and into Owen’s world of fur and fangs she’ll need to grapple with an impossible new reality that includes werewolves, silver bullets, and fated mates.

And she may just have to cope by kissing her bodyguard senseless.

Stasia is just your typical New York gal, the hustle and bustle of the streets but one thing she doesn’t enjoy is trying to be kidnapped because of who her father is. but once again that’s happened so her brother called a friend of his and has an employee Owen to go to be her bodyguard. but one thing they don’t know is that Owen is a shifter and needs to be in his wolf form just as much as his human form. but one thing Owen didn’t count on with this job security was that his wolf needed Stasia more then he would think, once he got a whiff of her fumes he knew that was his mate, but he just needed to get Stasia to see it as well. and there is no tucking his tail between his legs, she will be his it’s just a matter of when.

Marissa Grayson’s dream went up in smoke. A devastating fire has ripped apart her family’s bed-and-breakfast, leaving her off-kilter and scrambling to repair the damage. What she doesn’t need, or have time for, is Rhenn Burleski. He’s sexy, confident, and dangerous to her heart; a man who clearly knows his way around the female body and will leave the moment the sheets start to cool. Yet that doesn’t stop her from making a deal with the devil himself.

Work hard, play harder. That’s Rhenn’s life motto. An electrician by day, Rhenn turns it up at night, always with a different lady friend in tow. He makes sure they know the score: He’s not looking for anything more than one night of fun. However, he knows the second he meets the shy daughter of the bed-and-breakfast’s owner that his life is never going to be the same. As hard as he tries, he just can’t resist one taste.

What happens when their time is up and Rhenn must leave, returning to his old life? Will they be able to walk away, hearts unscathed, or will their time together prove to be nothing more than a fading memory?

Contains mature themes.

i bought this audiobook and here is my honest review

Marissa was meeting new family from juniper bay at the worst time, the bed and breakfast she runs with her family is currently without power and they had to call in an electrician, to get things back up and running. but none of them excepted him to be the most drop-dead gorgeous man Marissa has ever seen. Rhenn is a player a hit it and quit it kind of guy, never having to worry about hurt feelings, until he caught Marissa’s eyes and he was wanting to change all his ways. Will these two make sparks or will it end in a faulty wire job. I’m so glad to be back in this family world and Emma and Orvall are still just as spunky and sexual as their own granddaughters’ books. i love them and need all of their stories.

Avid reader, writer, mother, and wife! I love to read contemporary romance. Add in a little “spice” or hot guys in uniform pants, and I’m a happy woman. There’s just something about diving into a book and engrossing in the magic of your hero and heroine getting their happily ever after.

#Splatterpunk #Review – Made A Monster by Rob Nelson

Leave a comment

Adrian and Kendra are a match made in Hell.

Adrian’s dark past left him with a twisted imagination that takes him deep into the forest where he does unspeakable things.

Kendra is new to town. She has a dark secret of her own and an unhealthy obsession with a boy she hasn’t even met yet.

Until Adrian met Kendra, he had his deviant urges under control. When she comes to him for help, his capacity for violence goes beyond anything either of them could have imagined.

I’m part of a horror book group on Facebook and came across a review for this book. The way the reader wrote her review, I knew I had to bump this book to the top of my list.

If you’ve been following my horror read journey, you know that Broken Dolls: Deliverance by Mique Watson is my favourite horror book. Well this one, jumped right to the top alongside that one. Nothing can top Broken Dolls for me but this book is a close second. A very close second I must say.

So we meet Adrian and I honestly have no idea what to even say about him, Kendra or this book but I’ll try.

This story may be gruesome, filled blood, gore and everything else you can imagine or not imagine but it’s so much more than that. There’s emotion, survival, two broken souls who would do anything to get by but at the same time, are stuck.

Both Adrian and Kendra come from horrible backgrounds – This is trauma bonding to the extreme – both of their parents suck and that’s putting it lightly. They’re intrigued by each other but like most people who come from a horrible background, Adrian doesn’t know how to trust. I actually thought he came around but boy was I wrong.

You ever read a book and you’re just slobbing it on the couch or bed or wherever and then something happens in said book that makes you sit up straight, hand covering your heart or mouth, eyes wide, stomach clenching and you just can’t believe what you’re reading? Yeah, that happened to me quite a few times in this book.

So I don’t know how to review this but I’ll just say that Adrian and Kendra make Chucky and Tiffany look like angels.

Oh and please read the trigger warnings. I don’t have any triggers but the content of this book made even me uncomfortable at times.

100% recommend reading this if you’re into horror, splatterpunk and a emotionally charged story.

#wotr #attendingauthor #partofaseries Perfect Secret (Mason Creek 12) by Molly Mclain

Leave a comment

A fake relationship with a sexy cowboy in a small town is never a good idea…

-Alana-

After high school, my plan was to leave the small town of Mason Creek and never look back. I thought I’d work my way through college while my long-time, bull rider boyfriend chased his rodeo dreams and took me along for the ride.

My own dreams of becoming his publicist and living the high life together on the ABR circuit were crushed when it became clear that my eight seconds was up. The buckle bunnies were suddenly more appealing than the girl with her nose buried in the books.

I’ve sworn off men, especially cowboys and bull riders.

That is, until I walk in on one in my shower, naked, wet, and built like he could break my heart… and my bed.

-Holden-

The rodeo has been my whole world, and all it took was one false accusation to bring it crumbling down. I cleared my name, but the organization I’ve given my life and my body to for the past seven years doesn’t give a damn. They don’t want the drama and right now they don’t want me.

That’s how I ended up in Mason Creek, hiding from the cameras while the dust settles and I can reclaim my reputation and my rank in the ABR. The last thing I need is to get messed up with a local girl, especially one who hates cowboys–bull riders in particular.

Our relationship may be just for show, but I see the opportunity for what it is…The chance to keep my secret a little longer and prove to Alana that maybe her problem with bull riders is simple…

She hasn’t ridden the right one yet.

oh lord it feels good to be back in Mason Creek!!! Alana lived there her whole life but went away for college and fell in love with a cowboy in the ABR circuit but when he broke her heart because buckle bunnies were more tempting than staying faithful, Alana focused all her time on work and school. she worked at the local grocery store and was hoping for one day to own it, she did everything else why not own it. but when her boss let her know that a ABR cowboy was going to live across the hallway she wasn’t having it but she didn’t have a choice. Will she be able to resist his charm or will this be the wildest 8 second ride of her life.
