Sutton Mize is having her fiancé’s classic convertible restored as a surprise. Unfortunately, he also has a surprise in store for her – Sutton finds a pair of underwear in said car that is Not Hers. Even worse, they belong to her best friend. Thankfully, this discovery is made in the presence of Wyatt Abbot,…
Narrated by Mark Meadows Dear Dreamscape Media, THANK YOU! So often have I seen a favourite and/or long awaited book come out in audio only to have my heart sink when I see the name of the narrator, or for me to start listening with high hopes – only to have them dashed within minutes…
As I looked back over my notes so as to be able to write this review, two words kept popping out: relatable and refreshing. Relatable because the characters are just that and refreshing because that’s how this book felt. In Dirty Dancing at Devil’s Leap, the third installment in her Hellcat Canyon series, Julie Ann…
Dorothy Garlock’s Take Me Home caught my attention because of the hero described in the blurb – he’s a German PoW in 1945, escaped and hiding out in a small Wisconsin town. The premise reminded me a bit of a book which I read over twenty years ago but still remember, so I gave it…
Narration by Lance Greenfield What a unique book. Think of The Hard Truth About Sunshine as the “Breakfast Club” (as in the 1980s teenage movie hit) but instead of a bunch of high school students from different social circles being the members, we have four characters, two female and two male, that are in group…
If you’re a fan of psychological thrillers, you’re living in the perfect era. It seems like a new thriller with a shocking twist comes out every few weeks, and I’ll be the first to admit I couldn’t be happier about it. From the moment I read the blurb for Mel McGrath’s Give Me the Child,…
The first book I ever read by Kelly Jamieson, Shut Out, didn’t sit very well with me. I’m happy to say that the second book in the series, Cross Check: A Bayard Hockey Novel, is an improvement, but there are still some aspects that simply grated on me. Ella Verran has made some bad choices…
Narrated by Holden Still I admit I paused for a few seconds when I thought about requesting Risk No Secrets for review. I mean, the narrator’s name is Holden Still. Really. But I’m glad I did because while his name is pun-tastic, Mr. Still is a great narrator (even if the name still makes me…
Dystopian novels are a dime a dozen these days, but Jennie Melamed’s début novel, Gather the Daughters, is anything but typical. Centering around a cult with some fascinating, if problematic, views about women and the societal roles they should occupy, it’s a powerful story of courage, filled with identifiable characters who face unimaginable hardships. As…

Anwen worries for and loves all of the boys in her charge very much, but there are grey clouds on the horizon. Struggling with…
