Sunset Rising
This book was gifted to me by the author in exchange for an honest and fair review.
World War 3 - Military vehicles are seen disappearing into "the Dome" Civilians push their way in on foot, But only the fastest make it before the doors are closed for good. With the radiation threat on the outside there is likely to be many generations in the dome.
Forced to sign a treaty that will see the Civilians treated as slaves in the pit and culled when they reach 35. The 'Bourge' live the high life and use the female Urchins for their entertainment. Step out of line and a beating is expected. When Sunny is dragged from the dark pit up to the dome for the bachelor party of the man who is to marry the president's daughter, she doesn't expect to be drawn into an evil plot by the Bride to be.
Her life will be changed forever and the man that she is tricked into marrying will have his eyes opened to just how evil the government actually is.
I struggled to put this down.(Loved it) It has a little bit of a "Les Miserables" to it. A story where a brave girl is not scared to fight for her people. The story of Sunny O'Donnell & Jack Kenner is very inspiring. Where a 'rich' man is helping out the less fortunate to help them revolt against a government.
I am really looking forward to Book 2 in the series!!
I give this a rating of 5 stars.

When the Siren Calls
Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. Welcome to a world where buying up luxury holidays homes and having affairs are common nature. I enjoyed the story, it was an easy read and flowed well.
Unhappy in her marriage Isobel falls into an affair with a suave Business man/ Property developer (Jay) who has a hint of a con man about him. Little does she know that she is not his only extra marital affair. This follows the story of Isobel her husband her lover and the Tuscan countryside.
Once so sure that she would never cheat on Peter and that he would never cheat on her. But along comes Rachel his assistant and she is suddenly not so confident. Could it be guilt on her behalf that makes her unsure?
