Tam DeRudder Jackson - Books 3 and 4 in the Balefire series

Book 3: Wild for me 

This is Dakota and Annabelle's story. It all started with a scorching hot one-night stand two years ago after a Balefire concert. It also ended there when Annabelle left Dakota's room. Both of them have been reliving that night, but never made contact with each other.  At the wedding rehearsal of Jack and Clio (who we met in Book 1) Dakota and Annabelle see each other again and the story takes off from there. 

Grumpy Garrett is back causing tension and stirring things up in his usual way.

Quick and easy read allowing you to escape for a few hours.

Book 4: Hot for me

Finally Adam Tron gets to meet a girl, or rather a strong willed independent woman matching him in all areas. A superstar in her own rights, Cristy joins Balefire on their tour and things get hot.

Grumpy Garrett is back and we also meet Cristy's manager Gretchen who's keeping a tight leash on her, causing enormous frustrations for Adam Tron.

Again an enjoyable easy flowing read by DeRudder Jackson completing the story of the four band members of Balefire. I thought this would be the last in the series, or possibly followed by a 'retrospective and now' story about their first drummer, but apparently their manager Garrett is getting his own story in Book 5. 

PS. There is a Book 5

Book 5, Stay with me, is due in the autumn/fall of 2022 and this is described as Garrett's redemption. Not sure he deserves a book on his own but let's see...


Thanks to NetGalley for these two eARCs in exchange for honest reviews.

The Russia Leak by Nick Ganaway

The Russia Leak: A White House hopeful is a real page turner! As per the blurb, we encounter the mistress, extortion, espionage, murder and revenge; all mixed up in a tangle of stories and clues, with clever cliff hangers throughout the book making it difficult to put down. The characters are well developed and the insight into the US political system is well researched and very believable - and clearly corrupt.  It's easy to see that Ganaway is passionate about the thriller genre and influenced by some of the best writers including Connelly, Baldacci, Grisham, and Clancy.  Would it be premature to wish that there will be a sequel? #TheRussiaLeakAWhiteHousehopeful #NetGalley

The Sandcastle Hurricane by Carolyn Brown

Cousins Tabby and Ellie Mae have recently taken over their aunt’s beachfront bed-and-breakfast in Sandcastle, Texas, and they are planning to redecorate the various rooms when finances allow it. Their plans are put on hold when a hurricane is coming their way and the B&B is suddenly turned into an old people's home. Guests include two estranged sisters with personalities to make you chuckle and pull your hair interchangeably. Then we have two Vietnam veterans who have been best of friends since they came back from the war. Finally, add into the mix good looking handyman and builder Alex and his business partner Ricky, as well as a cat, some kittens and a stray dog. Cue the hurricane and all gets a bit topsy-turvy.. This is a thoroughly enjoyable beach read; preferably with no hurricanes in sight! #TheSandcastleHurricane #NetGalley
