Review: 

Wow! This book was intense!
Rachel dropped her daughter Kylie off at the bus stop for school and headed her on her way to start her day with her doctor's appointment. Everything seemed like a normal day until she received a phone call on her cell from an unknown caller. That moment is when her life changed forever!
The unknown caller tells Rachel that they have kidnapped her daughter and that she must continue on the chain or they will have to kill Kylie. Rachel must pay a ransom (that's the easy part) but she must also find another child to kidnap to continue the chain. Now, this chain is not something that they can easily get out of. The victims, the parents, must turn into criminals and kidnap someone else's child and with this the person running the chain is making a lot of money off of unsuspecting parents when their child is taken.
I will say that this book was very intense and at times definitely gave me anxiety with some of the situations that are in this story! But, I will say I was on the edge of my seat for most of this book! I enjoyed the book a lot and it was a very fast read the only reason that I took a star away was that there were a few times in the book that I was really questioning it and the ending didn't really match the story to me but it was still entertaining. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves fast-paced thrillers that have the power to keep you on the edge of your seat!

So now they are pretending to be in a relationship and they are going to Jordan's fathers funeral.

This is a cute quick read and I loved it and binged it in one night!

Title: The Golden Couple  Author: Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen  Expected Publication: March 8, 2022 Publisher: St. Martin's Press  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages: 336 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  OMG This is one that I was really enthusiastic to read because I have loved EVERYTHING that these two authors have written and just a little secret (they didn't let me down! I was glued to my kindle the last 40% of the book!) Marissa Bishop sought out Avery Chambers to help her with her marriage. Marissa had a fling and she wanted to tell her husband in a controlled environment, where she and he could work out their differences and heal their marriage. Avery is just the unorthodox therapist to do this, see she only takes clients that she can help in 10 visits because she has a system that works. So while they work through her program they can be in a different place than when they first came to see her. So, while it seems that the Bishops are getting through their

My Review of The Shadow Man by Helen Fields

Title: The Shadow Man  Author: Helen Fields  Expected Publishing Date: Feb. 4, 2021 Published by: Avon Books UK  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages 400 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5  Review:  This is a different kind of thriller/horror book. An American profiler and psychologist is called in to help aid when a high profile abduction of Elspeth occurs after a murder of a similiar woman. Along with Detective Baarda she and he follow the abductions of a 12 year old child and of a parapalegic man. Trying to figure out the end game is all they can try to do and the twist and the turns of the case is absolutely horrifying. Fergus abducts them all to try to create the family he never had, not long after his introduction the reader can realize that he is not only physically but also mentally sick. He is so sick and twisted it's not even funny. This book follows the investigation and also gives an insight into Fergus's mind, and what an adventure that was. I definitely recommend this b
