Book Review: Promise of Punishment

Image
He's the memory that burns like poison. She's the obsession that devours his control. Fable They say angels only exist in heaven. They’re wrong. Some are born into hell and learn to survive. I was seventeen when I saved a beautiful stranger from dying in an abandoned garden. He promised to kill the villain in my nightmares. Instead, he shattered my life. At twenty-three, I’m still running from the evil in my past, and the stranger who betrayed me. He’s back. Colder, and in a position to destroy me again. I hide in a gilded mansion where elites play, falling for a masked man who makes my body come alive. But some prisoners earn favors. And some saviors keep deadly promises.

Audiobook Review: Plastic Shaman

Image
  A spiritual quest turns into a fatal disaster in this gripping true crime investigation of the wellness industry. In October 2009, more than fifty people attended a $10,000-per-person wellness retreat led by a celebrity self-help guru. For these enlightenment seekers, their time in Sedona, Arizona, culminated in a fake Native American sweat lodge ceremony. Three of them would not make it out alive. This tragedy exposes the dangerous truth about the booming $2 trillion wellness industry where promises of spiritual awakening and financial success often mask dangerous practices underpinned by cultural appropriation and commodification of nature. Journalist Annette McGivney explores this world, exposing the manipulation and greed that allow charismatic influencers to prey on vulnerable people in search of happiness and healing—no matter the cost. My Review Wow. This book is amazing. I found myself both enlightened and fascinated at the same time. I have not been this fully invested i...

Audiobook Review: Kept by the Kingpin

Image
  He reverse-kidnaps me. Instead of snatching me away, the mafia boss moves into my house. Now he’s renovating to his luxury standards and looking at me like he wants to eat me whole. I nurse the kingpin’s gunshot wound in the hospital, and when I’m done, he asks me to quit, and work for him instead. I refuse, and when he threatens to kidnap me, I point out that’s hardly likely to make me be careful when changing his dressings. I think that’s the end. A heart-pounding encounter with an older, powerful, dangerous man. Until I get back to my house share, and discover he’s bought the entire building and moved in upstairs. At first, I clean his wounds. But it’s not long before the kingpin wants more . Kept by the Kingpin is a sweet and spicy age gap romance with a mafia boss obsessed with spoiling his innocent girl. My Review Callie is so naive. At times it is endearing. I like that Reid recognized this and did not pressure Callie. He took his time caring for Callie. I will say that Re...

Book Review: Melancholia

Image
  I’ve always been uncomfortably close with death. From losing my other half before either of us could drive, to my mother’s act of “mercy” that nearly took me to my own grave with her, death has never been something I could escape. Now, I work at Kindred Pines Mortuary, surrounded by the dead while haunted by the ghosts I can’t bury. Somehow, he knows death just as well as I do. Maybe better. When I discover that a local suicide was actually murder, I never suspect the killer is close enough to know who cried wolf. Not until he makes me part of his game—and forces me to play by his rules. The more he pushes me toward my own broken edges, the more I realize how perfectly they fit against his. His obsession with death awakens something dark in me. Something I know I shouldn’t want. Something I may never recover from if I let it take root. Maybe after all these years of holding death at arm’s length, it’s time to stop fighting. To stop fighting him. And let him stoke the flames of m...
