The Ones Who Got Away is a story of "What if?" and "It's never too late." What if you took the chances you've been avoiding out of fear? What if it wasn't too late to fulfill the dreams your teen self imagined for you?

Cross's conversational writing style keeps the story moving and the reader immersed. There is angst, love, and several laugh out loud moments. Overall, a very enjoyable read. I would recommend it for older teens and adults who enjoy YA.

Last year in November, I decided to start doing book reviews the way I like to talk about books. This is why I like it, this is why I didn't like, this is who I think would enjoy it. This is what I’ve learned in the past year.

It is satire, humor, and horror in an easy-to-assemble package. Just a little Ikea humor there, you don't really have to assemble anything. And if you have ever assembled something from The Den of Satan (as my husband calls it). You know there is NOTHING "easy" about it. You want to hear some horror stories? I can tell some Ikea horror stories!

Maisey Yates is one of my go-to authors for romance that is witty, authentic, and not over-the-top sappy. I have devoured the Donnelly family books of the Copper Ridge series. So I was greatly anticipating Liam and Sabrina's story in Christmastime Cowboy.

Murder on the Orient Express has everything that mystery writers today are told NOT to do. There is lots of "telling" instead of "showing". There is head-hopping. There is very, very little character development. And, it all just works!

I LOVED this one. It sucks you with this beautiful, lyrical style writing that makes you feel the oppressive heat of an Australian drought and keeps the pages turning with subtle twists and secrets that just beg you to work the puzzle.

I've joked many times that my oldest daughter, Michelle, needs to become a critic or a literary agent. She's excellent at pinpointing exactly what she likes and doesn't like about books, movies, musicals, basically anything. So, when she randomly announced, "I really like this book I'm reading!" I had to ask her all about it.

The Last Weekend has an eerie feel to it. I mean, just look at that cover! It is reminiscent of old-style suspense such as Agatha Christie or Christopher Pike. The smooth and inviting style of the writing draws the reader into this delightfully creepy castle in North Carolina with an intriguing cast of characters.

Wild Ride Cowboy is a story of dealing with loss, living with guilt, and finding a way to let yourself be happy. On the surface, that doesn't exactly sound like a story that you'd find yourself reading with a goofy grin or even laughing out loud. But, I did both of those.

The Coldest Fear has a chilling plot. The story is told through multiple characters who all have something to hide and something to lose. The way everything came together in the end made sense (which I always appreciate) and, of course, left some dangling threads for the next book.

Seeing Red is everything a reader expects from Sandra Brown. Plot lines that intertwine a way you don't see coming but logically unfold. A little humor, a few HOT love scenes and ending that drops your jaw but makes perfect sense.
