Fantastic read right from page 1. Hannah is a very strong willed person who knows what she wants. Tragedy early on helps to form her life. Believing she has lost everyone dear to her she forms a life for herself. But never stays too long in one place. Dealing with crudelitas has become a way of life.

A fantastic story of love and survival. I love how the book incorporates a wide range of supernatural creatures. Other than a few errors in words and sentences this was an easy read, great to pick up and read at any stage. I can't wait to read the second novel in the series xx

Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Crazy Thing Called Love (Crooked Creek Ranch, #3)Crazy Thing Called Love by Molly O'Keefe
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I haven't read the first 2 books in the trilogy but I really enjoyed this novel. The second chance romance is always intriguing. I loved the way they shared the history of them and bringing the kids into it. I love the rags to riches tales also. Billy seems like a tough hockey player but becomes a teddy bear in the face of love for his ex wife, niece & nephew. Can he turn his life around? Can she go back to being part of the person she used to be. 2 people who have the ability to hurt each other so much, but come to realise they need each other's strengths.

The Vale Girl - Nelika McDonald

The Vale GirlThe Vale Girl by Nelika McDonald
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great read, it took me awhile to get into this book, but I am glad I stuck with it.
Lots of twists and turns, some you see coming and others not so much.
The story is based around a girl who is looking after her alcoholic prostitute mother in a small town, where many judge the daughter to be the same as her mother. The story behind Suzannah becoming a alcoholic and a prostitute is one that you hear often, with an abusive, bully for a father, but small town mentality of not rocking the boat leads to cover ups.
Sarah's friend Tommy is a lost soul who has lost his mother and lives alone most of the time as his father goes away to work. He would do anything to protect Sarah.
Police officer Henson takes Tommy under his wing as he helps try to solve Sarah's disappearance. No one really seems interested in helping to find the prostitutes daughter, they are more focused on the Grevilla Festival and not drawing attention to the town. This changes a little when they realised that another teenager has gone missing. This time the son of the town bully, who has the tendancy to take after his father. The media invade the town.
Worth the read, I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a good twist in a storyline and the struggles some take to survive.

Lost Shadows - Julie Elizabeth Powell

Lost ShadowsLost Shadows by Julie Elizabeth Powell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found the storyline a little confusing to begin with as it jumped between characters, but it all began to make sense as the story tied in together. I enjoyed the story of light vs dark. The backgrounds of the characters and their individual enlightenment. The ending was beautiful.
Adam can't remember anything about his life. He has been told his name and that he was in a car accident and his parents died. Dr Pamela tries to help him remember, but is the hypnosis helping him to remember or leading him to his fate? Follow this boys journey to find out.
