Review: 
Wow! What started as a one night stand between a waitress with a desire to be wanted and a man coming home from a job looking for a distraction from the realness of his life, turns into a cat and mouse game all over a picture that would make some very powerful men look very bad!
While working in her Arizona waitressing job Carla strikes up a conversation with a customer leading to a one-night stand with Cosmo. While still at Cosmo's house Carla takes a memento (a habit of hers to remember the men she sleeps with) only to find out later that the picture is worth more than 1000 words. The picture puts the man who is running for president along with Cosmo in a very hard spot meeting with individuals of very important military men from other countries.
This alone sets Carla on the run where she finally kind of settles down in Lost Bay, Alaska. Carla wants to release the photo to the media to bring into light the presidential candidate's actions while Cosmo is on the hunt for Carla to get the photo back!
While all this is going on Carla has a boating accident where Scott comes to her aid and he is determined to help Carla on the way to getting this photo to the media. What happens with Cosmo is in the same town as Carla and Scott? Read this book to find out what happens! This is a fast-paced thriller with a splash of romance and friendship! While also giving a glimpse of light on what happens when you work with the powerful and mighty!
I was provided the audiobook to review by Dreamscape Media and Netgalley! The audiobook was great, the narrator did not have a monotone voice that has the tendency of putting you to sleep. The narrator kept me interested and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves slow-burning thrillers with a splash of romance!

My Review of Sex Cult Nun by Faith Jones

​ Title: Sex Cult Nun  Author: Faith Jones  Published: November 30, 2021  Published by: William Morrow Books  Genre: True Crime/Memior  Pages: 400  Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️  Review:  I'm giving this book 5 stars. The reason for the five stars is the rawness and the transparency of this author that she went into the details that she knew would bother a lot of people, she went to the deepest and darkest times in her life and she put them on blast. She blasted her truth from the rooftops for not only herself but for everyone that is not able to share their truth.  This book has an abundance of disturbing and disgusting content and a lot of underage sexual abuse and rape. That is the part that is hard to read about, but her courage to share it and write it is very eye-opening. I did not agree with he whole sharing and polygamy but with each their own. I know I would not want to share my spouse with another person. The whole child abuse and sexual abuse...
