The Lady and the Highwayman

Written by: Sarah M. Eden
While few authors can tell two stories simultaneously in a story, Sarah Eden succeeds in writing three cohesive stories that draw the reader in. With two Penny Dreadful novels told at the beginning of each chapter as a replica of the time period, the mood is set. While Elizabeth Black purports to be a proper lady and female author of books for the elite, she is THE author of the famous dreadful novels by Mr. King. On the other hand, Fletcher Walker advertises himself as the most successful dreadful author while keeping his charitable acts hidden. These two characters work well together, keeping their secrets hidden despite growing closer as a couple.

With a setting that takes the reader to the streets of London and a plot line that keeps the reader wanting more, this story reflects the skill that Sarah Eden uses in all of her books while adding a level of  adventure and suspense that is not common among her writing. The romance, the intrigue, and the adventure make this novel more than just a simple Penny Dreadful or three, but a full-length treat to be enjoyed.

 Covert Ops Written by: Traci Hunter Abramson Teaser: “ Sienna and Craig’s wedding is just around the corner—but with a looming terrorist threat, the quest to make it down the aisle has just turned into a battle to survive.”   Review: I was so excited to read this book. Traci Hunter Abramson set up such a great premise to this story with all of the Saint Squad novels leading up to this one. With Sienna and Craig's wedding along with all of the political hoopla going on, this story does not rest. Traci writes such great suspense! I was left wondering throughout the story whether they they were going to get their happily ever after! There was romance, suspense, and the amazing Saint Squad. Any story with the Saint Squad is full of laughter and adventure. I thoroughly enjoyed this story from beginning to end.

Sleep Robin Hood Outlaws: Book Three Written by: M.C. Frank Sleep Robin Hood is a fantastic continuation of the Outlaws series. With action, adventure, romance, suspense, and everything in-between this story hooked me. I can't wait for the next year to pass so I can read the next installation in this retelling. The characters have such passion and feelings that go between hope, despair, and betrayal. I don't want to say too much for fear of giving something away but this series is a well-written depiction of the tale of Robin Hood.
