Fearless (Black Brothers) by Brynley Blake (Bush)

Sometimes the only way to find your strength is to see how much you can surrender

Author: Brynley Blake (Bush)

This book will suck you in; strong characters and a strong storyline that's easy to identify with. Recommend for mature readers only due to sexual (BDSM) content.

Emmaline is a divorcee with a child and what seems like a rather useless ex. In the story, Blake is showing Emmaline as a very strong woman who's had enough of pleasing everyone else. The new her is going for FEARLESS.

When accepting a job to write the memoirs of the renowned Dr Black (senior), she gets Dr Black Junior, or Beckett as part of the deal. Although perhaps Beckett was the deal and the father's memoirs just a bonus?

Anyway, Beckett is the ultimate alpha, with strands of BDSM added to the storyline, but always in a 'soft way', where he lets Emmaline set the pace.

As one reader put it: "forget the Fifty Shades and Crossfire series, this is a book that's in a small exclusive club that would win a fight hands down if put against any of the big sellers"

As a side, in one section of the book there's a mentioning of graviola being a cure for cancer. The research is not conclusive, but I found the information by Cancer Research UK interesting.

There are three books in this series - click here for details.

Beginning of Forever Catherine Bybee

Bybee has written another fab book in the D'Angelos series - great holiday read, perhaps even more so if you're heading to Italy and love wine! Amazing combination of romance, travel, independence, life experience and wine. Oh, and not to forget the Golden Girls!!

My review of the second book in the series, Be your everything , can be found ## here ##. #BeginningofForever #NetGalley

More Than Just Mum by Rebecca Smith

I'll happily pay for a 'mum breakdown service' Title: More Than Just Mum (More Than Just Mum, Book 1) Author: Rebecca Smith In the reviews by others, this book is described as an "absolutely hilarious, laugh out loud novel of family chaos and reinvention". I wasn't that enamoured with it. Sure, it made me smile from time to time, but it wasn't incredible. Hannah is the mum of Dylan, Scarlet and Benji. She's tired of being 'the mum of...'. and she's longingly looking back at a time when she was Hannah, not the MUM. She decides she needs to find a job she loves and earn a lot of money. To earn lots of money she decides she should become a writer, because they apparently all earn a lot of dosh. She has a particular niche in mind... "... might ask for advice about how to handle being forty-three years old, permanently strapped for cash and doing a job I hate while trying to deal with three exhausting kids. That’s the kind of breakdown ...

Dark Secrets on Dressmakers' Alley by Rosie Clarke

Dark Secrets on Dressmakers' Alley is the latest instalment in the gritty, historical saga series set in London's East End in 1924. It builds on the first book in the series "Dangerous Times on Dressmakers' Alley" with many of the characters returning and coming further to life. The girls are enjoying their work at Miss Susie's, the dressmaker's run by a former maid. Recently there has been a series of women being attached and robbed, even in broad daylight. The Police seem too busy (and somewhat incompetent) so the men of the Dressmakers' Alley create a rota to keep an eye on the area and to keep their wives, girlfriends and sisters safe. The story felt a bit darker than the previous one, and some of the novelty from the first book was now just part of the back story (a Lady designing dresses, a former maid running a business, the Women's Movement, etc). Dark Secrets on Dressmakers Alley by Rosie Clarke is available on 29 October 2024.
