I feel like this story is unfinished. I'd love a sequel or maybe a book with Sadie's friends as the main characters.

I didn't realise at first that Emma is Meg's sister. Meg was the main character in Has Anyone Seen My Sex Life? You don't need to have read Has Anyone Seen My Sex Life? as both books are set around the same time but I would highly recommend reading both. There are 3 more Callaghan sisters Beth, Grace and Lucy. I desperately hope that Kristen is going to write books for the others. I feel there are many stories there and I really want to hear them.

This story is full of sweet moments that really tugged at my heartstrings. I absolutely loved joining the Wicked world and I CANNOT wait to read more of their stories!

I loved the location and it definitely had me longing for a week in the south-west of the country. Walking along the beaches bear foot with an ice cream. I can almost imagine it! This was a good summer romance story that shows you things aren't always what they seem at first. It's a nice easy read that is perfect for lazy summer afternoons.

The story was well written and very easy to keep reading. There were some parts that were difficult to read due to their content but even then Ed manages to put the reader at ease. There were some horrific scenes but I always wanted to keep going. I can't wait to read more of this series.

This book has a lot of mystery in it and I for one cannot wait to explore it even more! The ending was such a big cliffhanger that I am just dying for book 3 now. These two sure know how to break a girl's heart! What makes it worse is knowing that Amie and Jay have already written it and I can't have it yet. I mean I think it's in edits or something but I'd take it if I could!

The story itself is full of twists and turns that kept me gripped to the end. I flew through this book. It's well written and very easy to read. I just kept turning page after page. I really struggled to put it down. Dana does an excellent job of reeling you in, making you care about the characters and even making you doubt everyone. This is a gripping read that will leave you wanting more from this daring crime reporter.

This story is complex and extremely interesting. John wasn't afraid to get right into the nitty-gritty. Some of this book is difficult to read but for the most, it's a fastpaced crime thriller.

I adore the location of this book. The little village with its cute coffee shop and juice bar. I SO want to go visit. It just sounds so romantic. This book is a perfect escape from the world right now. Whether you are in rain or shine Firefly Beach will be waiting to greet you with open arms.

Julia did an excellent job of weaving the two stories together. The pace was good and flicked between the two stories in a way that kept you hooked and wanting to know what happens with both stories. If you love a book full of twists, turns, lies and revenge then this is a book for you.
