Review: 

This one was kinda on the slower side.  This is the story of Jessie who around the anniversary of her childhood best friend's murder starts to experience weird happenings with life and she can't explain what is going on. Jessie was convicted of murdering her friend because her friend's mother saw her screaming over her friend's body and was convicted that she murdered her friend. Jessie after being released changed her name and moved away from her old neighborhood so that she would not be easily recognized and then one day her mother calls her freaking out about a post on social media. The post started with Jessie's daughter being missing from school, while Jessie is freaking out and her mother is freaking out Jessie's daughter is safe and sound. Sadie is a reporter who believes Jessie is telling the truth about not murdering her friend, but she is also a reporter. After the social media post, Jessie hides at her mom's house with her daughter and she teams up with Sadie to find out what actually happened all those years ago and who killed her friend and the girls from then until now! 
Wow, this was a great listen! The narrator was awesome and the story was intriguing enough to keep my attention and the story kept me on the edge of my seat! Thank you Bookouture Audio for the listen I loved it! Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to listen and review this one!

So now they are pretending to be in a relationship and they are going to Jordan's fathers funeral. Now, this game gets too serious when Cory starts to actually get feelings for Jordan and Jordan is too stubborn to tell Cory he has the same feelings. This is a cute quick read and I loved it and binged it in one night!

My Review of The Golden Couple by Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen

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

Title: Daughter  Author: Kate McLaughlin  Expected Publication: March 8, 2022 Publisher: Wednesday Books  Genre: Young Adult/ Thriller/ Mystery  Pages: 336 pages Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  This was definitely a different type of book, it has a very unique storyline. I don't think that I have ever read a book quite like this one but, it was worth a read! Scarlet is your atypical teenager, she is being raised by her really helicopter/overprotective mom. While Scarlet seems to be your regular teenager with regular problems her mother has been keeping a very big secret away from her! Scarlet finds out the reason for her mother's overprotectiveness when the FBI shows up at her house, and Scarlet finds out her father is a notorious serial killer and he is losing his battle with cancer. To make things more challenging about turning the life of Scarlet, since her father is losing his battle with cancer he has agreed to tell the names of his victims only to his daughter. Her fath
