His Loving Wife 
Miranda Smith 
⭐⭐⭐⭐

I often find myself wondering what I would do in various emergency situations - including a home invasion. Will I freeze? Will I fight? Sacrifice myself for my family? Am I strong enough to win the battle? 
A year ago, Willow and Andrew experienced a home invasion. Willow told her children to get out of the house to safety while catching the intruder off guard. This decision not only ensure the safety of her children, but also Willow was able to scare the intruder into leaving. 
Months later they learn the intruder's identity - Paul, Willow's ex from college. Willow takes on the guilt of starting the chain of events - Paul and Willow ran into each other weeks before the invasion.
Andrew deals with the guilt of freezing - seeking an online community to cope.
The family goes on a beach vacation - yet Willow can't help feeling something weird is going on. 
This plot definitely held my attention - the dynamics between parents and children, the impact of such a stressful event on a healthy marriage. Lots of positivity regarding seeking therapy for all members of the family.

Migration Event - Book Tour

Migration Event K C Gillis  ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #migrationevent #kcgilliswriter #environmentalthriller #thriller #suspense #mustread #jordanreed #zooloobooktours This book is well researched, planned and executed. It immediately made me think of the Pelican Brief by John Grisham.   An environmental thriller that sucks you in, includes massively rich men and politicians.   Jordan receives a random tip about a wealthy man evading tariffs.  As she digs deeper, Jordan learns no one knows why this man bought a failing solar panel company.  Maggie is a die hard conservationist, with connections all over the world. Migrating dowitchers are literally falling dead from the sky. An autopsy reveals a specific metal poisoning. Found in solar panels.  Great suspense, lots of characters to keep the plot moving.

The Stars Among us - Blurb

It was almost nine. Nora and Lucas both had to get up in six hours’ time, so they finished their drinks and decided to call it a night. Lucas didn’t want Nora to walk home alone to what he joked looked like a slum apartment. He thus accompanied her to the official hotel drivers, who were stationed in the alley behind the building. They were laughing because Lucas was telling the story of how Handmaids 1 and 2 had got into a fight that day over who would pass the bottle of water to him, not realising that he understood what they were saying. So they didn’t notice Dan until they bumped into him. He gave them a quick and curious once-over, and then launched into usual mode. “Well, well, so this is why you couldn’t come out for a drink with me?” he observed snarkily. “No, Dan, I didn’t go for a drink with you because I like spending my time with people who mean something to me, and you don’t,” she retorted sharply, only noticing after the event that she had accidentally said that Lucas was...

Malevolent Nevers  Tim Rimer ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Abel Ward left his home as soon as he could.  Just about twenty years later, his high school crush, Daisy,  calls. His great aunt Elma is quickly declining.  Si simply wants to spend his time with his bestie and girlfriend,  Mags.
