I love a good murder mystery and Blythe puts together a beautiful haunt filled with classic whodunit pitfalls. I found myself immediately transported into the story and loved reading each page. This is a beautiful way to begin a series and is written in an easy and delightful manner. I look forward to reading more from this talented author.

This book picks up where the first book of the series, Boundaries, leaves off. Valerie and Tim are planning their wedding when murders start occurring in the area. Tim is tasked with investigating the murders…but Valerie feels like there is a connection among the killings. Will the connection be made before the killer strikes again? (You have to read it to find out) This book kept me hooked in for two reasons. First, the story is good with twists and turns that keep you wanting to see what happens. Second, the relationship between Valerie and Tim is relatable. There is banter between the two, as well as support for Valerie as she continues to overcome her past. I found myself rooting for her as a person in the first book and I still am in this book. Other characters from the first book make an appearance as well. I look forward to what happens next in this series.

This book took me by surprise at how good it was but also multilayered. Full of action with the scenarios of her getting justice for herself and the other victims of Eddie’s crimes. Romance with she and Robin that she can have the best of both worlds and this is only the beginning for this duo! There’s a great sense of action from characters out to seek vengeance even in a completely fictional way.

I give Ashes To Ashes Box Set: Books 1 to 3 by Rowena Holloway, 5 stars.
This set is amazing! When I started the first book, I wasn’t sure what to think. But that was solved when I quickly learned that I could not put the book down. Each book in this set does that — pulls you in with stories and characters that are so compelling. Some people, you want to know more of; others you love to hate. The stories themselves are gripping and leave you guessing until the end.
With a superb cast and stories you submerge yourself in, this set is a great buy and I highly recommend it for those who like psychological suspense.

Calamity under the Chandelier by Camilla Blythe is the first book in the Sleuthing Starlet Mystery series. This is a great who-dun-it style book that is thoroughly entertaining from start to finish. The author has really written this book well. It has an interesting storyline that really pulled you in to it. It kept you interested with twists thrown in throughout. I loved trying to figure out who was the one responsible. The characters were really entertaining. It was the mixing of two worlds and it seemed to work really well. For me they really added to the overall story and just made a good book even better. As the first book in the series I thought this was a great way to start it off and I am looking forward to reading what is to come next.

The Slaughter of Leith Hall By Lexie Conyngham 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book The Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conyngham. It is a story that includes mystery and suspense. It is a book that pulled me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. I enjoyed reading about the character of Charlie Rob. He is a young man who finds himself on a journey that has him searching for both truth and justice. Charlie has a fierce determination to find the answers that he is searching for. Read this book for the full story. This is a book that had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It includes twists that I didn’t see coming. The story is woven in such a way that I felt like I was right there with the characters. Don’t miss out on an exciting and entertaining story that kept me up well past my bedtime to find out what happens. I highly recommend reading it.

Ashes To Ashes Boxset (books 1-3) by Rowena Holloway was a thrilling 5 star read. This is a box set of three great must read Psychological thrillers with lots of suspense.
Bad Things Happen: Book #1 This is Charlotte and Joey’s story and it was a thrilling mystery about a secret that Joey, a football player shares with Charlotte. Charlotte is a reporter looking for her big break and when Joey takes a chance on her she knows she is on the verge of getting what she wants.
Loyalty and truth? No freaking way. There is no loyalty. And in this life there is only one truth. Everybody lies.
Charlotte is determined to get that secret from Joey, but things take a very dangerous twist. Now that Joey is gone, will Charlotte solve the mystery behind Joey’s death before anyone else gets hurt? Who can she trust?
The story is told in alternating POV going from past to present which helped with understanding the story and being pulled right in. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next. I really liked the secondary characters.
Less You Know: Book #2 Charlotte is a very strong and determined woman. Once she gets on the trail of something or someone she doesn’t stop until she gets answers and Tyrone is the one she is focused on.
When Charlotte’s friend Allie disappears, she starts looking for her, as she’s searching she uncovers some secrets about Allie. What will happen when/if she learns the truth about both Allie and Tyrone?
I was pulled in once again by the author’s writing, I felt like I was right there with the characters. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next. I love a good story that has me thinking the whole time and I was surprised with the ending as well. There are several twists and turns. The secondary characters were great.
From The Ashes: Book #3 I was excited to get this final book. You get pulled in right from the beginning. Charlotte is a journalist who is looking for the truth behind some recent deaths. She is trying to put the pieces together to help solve the mystery. The closer she gets to figuring out things the more dangerous it gets.
There is so much more to this great read. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story.

These were fabulous reads and I can not wait for more from Ms. Holloway!!
Ashes to Ashes Box Set: Books are 1-3 by Rowena Holloway is a collection of books that are exciting to read. The books are all well written with fantastic characters. Each book has its own distinctive storylines that draws you in and keeps you interested. They are full of twists that keep you on your toes the whole way through. I was constantly trying to guess what was going on only for the author to throw a curveball that completely threw me off. These were all the type of books that I just couldn’t put down. They are overall fantastic and I would definitely recommend this series!
When Hani, an Egyptian diplomat under Akhenaten, is sent to investigate the murder of a useful bandit leader in Syria, he encounters corruption, tangled relationships, and yet more murder. His investigation is complicated by the new king’s religious reforms, which have struck Hani’s own family, priests of Amen-Ra, to the core. His own son has even been lured into the new religion. Despite his familial trials, Hani’s mission is to amass enough evidence for his superiors to prosecute the wrongdoers despite the king’s protection—but not just every superior can be trusted. And maybe not even the king!
N.L. Holmes is the pen name of a professional archaeologist who received her doctorate from Bryn Mawr College. She has excavated in Greece and in Israel, and taught ancient history and humanities at the university level for many years. She has always had a passion for books, and in childhood, she and her cousin (also a writer today) used to write stories for fun.

Ashes To Ashes Box Set: Books 1-3 by Rowena Holloway Four Stars
Bad Things Happen: Gripping Psychological Suspense is the first book in the Ashes to Ashes series by Rowena Holloway. This mystery/thriller is the first book I have read by Rowena Holloway, but definitely won’t be the last. This book had me hooked from the very first page and I just couldn’t put it down until the last. Charlotte Ashe is a local weather babe, trying to rise up in ranks to investigative reporter. Joey Baptist’s is a on the rise soccer player, who ran into some trouble. When Joey contacts Charlotte with a scoop and things start happening, Charlotte doesn’t know who she can trust as she investigates what really happened to Joey. This book had me on the edge of my seat with all the twists and turns.
Less You Know: Gripping Suspense is the second book in the Ashes to Ashes series by Rowena Holloway. This book is full of mystery, action and suspense, it will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. This book features Charlotte Ashe, an investigative reporter. The action was fast paced, the twists and turns really had me guessing what was going to happen next. I’m really enjoying this series and I have put Rowena Holloway on my permanent TBR list.
From the Ashes is the third and final book in the Ashes to Ashes Series by Rowena Holloway. This psychological thriller had me hooked from the very first page. It was full of twists and turns.

Charlotte is such an interesting lead character, and the plot was so detailed it had me guessing throughout. If you love a great thriller, this is the Box Set for you.
This book picks up where the first one left off and is a suspenseful read. I love where it goes and how we root for Valerie to gain the strength in her life to overcome even the biggest of obstacles like finding out the truth about a serial killer. Valerie is one of those great characters that you just want the best for. The mystery of this book is great and keeps you looking for where it may lead. This book is entertaining, easy to read, unpredictable but in the best ways that make the characters more lovable.

This is my second book by Jacquie Biggar. I haven’t read any other books in the High-Tech Crime Solvers series but I will be going back to read them. I have loved Jacquie’s writing style in the first book I read of hers and this was no different. I enjoyed the story and the characters. Julie Crenshaw is our main female character, she’s an investigative reporter. Matthew Roy is our main male character, he’s a detective and frustrated with his inability to track a rapist terrorizing his city. I loved this story enough that I’m going back to start from the beginning of this series. If you’ve never read anything by Jacquie- you need to. If you have but haven’t read any of this series- you need to.

This is a new author for me, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. I look forward to reading more from this series and author in the future. This is a historical mystery-murder story that kept me engaged. I enjoyed the characters as I had no problem connecting to them as they made the story come alive. I also enjoyed how the characters were supportive of each other which made it easy to read. This is a story that took me back to this time in history and made me feel as if I was there. This is a story about Charlie. He finds himself far away from home and Leith has taken him under his wing and changed his life. He also finds himself in the middle of a murder-mystery case in which he is determined to find justice. This is a little different story for me than what I normally read but I enjoyed it. I had no problems turning page after page wondering what would happen next. I am happy I picked up this book and I highly recommend reading it.

5 Star The Divided Twin (The Divided Series Book 2) by M. Billiter with Kyle Thomas
The Divided Twin is the second Book in The Divided Series by M.Billiter with Kyle Thomas . Wow I’m almost speechless but what a story .I literally locked myself in a room and warned my family not to bother me. Once I started reading there was no putting it down till I finished. I definitely highly recommend reading the first book in this series if you haven’t already. There were times my emotions were all over the place and I was almost ugly crying and my heart hurt. This story we have Aaron and Branson they are identical twins but there’s also a third twin named David who lives in the mind of one of the others mind. But once mom gets sick David starts to come out more. Find out what happens when he does come out? I again highly recommend this book ,get ready for a on the edge of your seat rollercoaster ride that will have you trying to figure out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

I will preface this by saying if you havent read book 1, stop and get it and read it first. I knew going into this book I was in for quite an emotional roller coaster as well as getting an engaging read. This had it all and then some. I really didn’t know what would happen next and that made me want to keep reading. My emotions were everywhere reading this, just so much emotions on the page and that takes talent. I recommend reading this as its really in a league of its own.

Boy on hold is the first book I’ve read by JD Spero. This is a beautifully written story about a boy in trouble. This story made me realize how many talented authors there are that I haven’t even discovered yet. I cannot wait to see what JD Spero comes up with next, I’m ready. I couldn’t put this book down. I loved every character and how the author made them come to life. If you want a serious but written with a light heart book- this is the one for you, absolutely recommend.

The Divided Twin (The Divided Series Book 2) by M. Billiter with Kyle Thomas was a deep and emotional read. I felt connected with the characters. The twins and David stood out as their own people. I felt super emotional and worn out after finishing the book. I found the twists and turns well laid out. A really good read.

The Divided Twin (The Divided Series Book 2) by M.Billiter with Kyle Thomas 4 Stars
Aaron and Branson are identical twins who survived a rough childhood. In their teens, Trevor (the voice in Branson’s head) emerged and wrecked havoc in their lives. Now as adults in their last year of college, it seems it is happening to Aaron. Aaron is struggling with pressures from school, work and volunteer time. With the realization that he might lose his mother to cancer, David (the voice in his head) has taken the reins. After everything that has happened with Trevor, can the twins survive David?
I remember reading book one and it blew me away so I knew that this one would be excellent as well. Both twins have schizoaffective disorder. Each book is written from a different perspective of the illness. In this story Aaron believes that he has everything under control therefore he doesn’t need help. After seeing what Branson went through with the psychiatrists and the hospital, Aaron definitely doesn’t want a repeat of that for himself.
This is an intense read that shows the ripple effect that this illness has on family and friends. The ending just about broke my heart. My only issue with this book is the constantly changing p.o.v’s. Many times I had to reread passages to figure out who was talking. Aside from that, I loved the book.

Billiter with Kyle Thomas – Review by Anna Hirsch
The story starts on ‘cabbage night’, a night known for mischief and pranks. When seven-year-old Hen Trout leaves his home in the middle of the night he only has one thing on his mind…hedgehogs! But, the night takes a shocking turn for Hen when he witnesses part of a brutal attack on his beloved neighbour, Miss Sally. This night is the start of a tremulous time for the Trout family. Family bonds are pushed to the limit as Hens older brother and role model is arrested. Marcella Trout doesn’t know what to think. Her seventeen-year-old son has been arrested and she can’t help but worry that his recent mood swings may have deeper roots than first thought, she had tried to keep secrets hidden but the past could be about to come back to haunt her. Boy on Hold is described as “suitable for teens, intriguing for adults” and this is an accurate description. I loved Hen and his relationship with his brother Tyler. A story that starts as a thriller and a mystery soon becomes much more than than and delves into the complicated world of teenage mental health and a family fighting to stay together.

The Divided Twin by Mary Billiter is the second book in the Divided Series. This is the follow up book to The Divided Mind and personally I think these need to be read in order. I am so glad to see a follow up to book one. It was great to be able to get back into these characters and their minds. I thought this book was even better than the first one. I was hooked immediately and found myself unable to put the book down. I read it all in one sitting and was thinking about it long after I had finished. I love the way the whole book was written and how the characters are developed. I found it to be such an interesting read! I would definitely recommend this series to anyone.

Rowena Holloway does an amazing job keeping the mystery going throughout the series. These stories have a dark thriller with suspense, secrets, truth, twists, and turns. Holloway makes sure that you have all the information you need to understand the story fully. There are times when I just wanted to close my eyes and get lost into my “happy world” because I was fearful for what was coming. Then BAM!!!! A twisty turn comes and makes me reread what I had just read because I missed the turn to her twist. I would allow time to read this book in one sitting as it moves at a good pace, and for me at least, I wanted to finish to see how everything came together. In this series, we have met Charlotte. She is a journalist who finds herself involved with a mystery. Her character grows with each story. You watch her and feel for her because you want her to put all the puzzles together about the Hall. You will want to read these stories all together. I highly recommend these books. Make sure while reading these books you are ready to read them all together. You will not be able to put them down once you start reading them.

The Divided Twin is the second book in The Divided seriesby M. Billiter and Kyle Thomas. I really recommend reading the first book in the series before this one, as we reunite with identical twins, Aaron & Branson Kovak whom we met in book one. I found this story a little more difficult to settle into than book one. There is a lot of swapping back and forth between characters that got a little confusing at times. But I guess that it added to the atmosphere of the book while also emphasizing the struggle with schizophrenia that occurs through the story. The mental illness is captured so realistically- textured with some darkness, heartbreak, and emotion. Thought provoking for sure!

Billiter with Kyle Thomas – Review by Angela Hayes
This is one crazy story! It took me on a ride with some high highs and low lows. I was shocked and surprised more than once. In here we continue following the twins as they are almost done with college. The last book left me confused and this one took some of that away. I wasn’t a fan of the misdirection throughout because later in the book things change…which made me doubt what I had previously read. So cryptic yes..but I don’t want to give anything away. These characters are very well done and had me feeling for them and hoping they do well.
Anyway by the end I forgave the author and just sat dumbfounded and saddened. Mental health is no joke. This shows the stigma attached to certain monikers. Listening to those kids in the Depression group is enlightening. Even What the twins have gone through and how people act toward them. Over this is a good read. I would recommend reading book 1 first. It will help with understanding some aspects of this one.

The Divided Twin (The Divided Series Book 2) by M. Billiter with Kyle Thomas
5 Stars
This author crept up on me in the first book of this series and literally blew me away. This story was no different and with the addition of her son’s input and the what if factor finished me off. What an emotional read! There were a couple spots where I found I had to put the book down because I couldn’t see through the tears. After reading the first, which by the way still brings back all the emotions as if I was still reading it, I had a feeling there was more coming, the minute I could physically have this book on my kindle I did.
You have to be able to focus while reading. Any distractions could leave you feeling confused, so if there’s any warning from me, that would be it. There are some tough parts that were a bit hard to get through but life with this kind of condition can’t be all sunshine and roses unfortunately.
I’m not even going to try to sum up anything storyline wise, You have to read this, but I do highly recommend reading the first book and not just the stories in each but cover to cover.
This was a Phenomenal story that will no doubt stay with me for a long long time. I will absolutely read both of these again maybe more than once.
Feels weird to say I loved it, or I enjoyed it, but it doesn’t feel weird to say I literally could not put it down and hated when it ended…

The Divided Twin (The Divided Series Book 2) by Mary Billiter and Kyle Thomas is a compelling and dark story that may cause triggers as it deals with mental health issues, abuse and suicide. The story has many, many emotions, it is frustrating, heartfelt and heart breaking. I found it hard at times having had a mental health problem myself. Mary gives us realistic look at a mental disorder and an insight into the mind of someone who has schizophrenia and how it affects themselves and those around them. I had trouble settling into the story as the back and forth between characters was a little confusing at times, but this could be because I was a little unsettled reading it. It is a fictional story but written from experience and input from Kyle who has first-hand knowledge.

Confidentiality (Scope of Practice Book 2) By Jessica Aiken-Hall 5 out of 5 stars
The story Confidentiality (Scope of Practice Book 2) by Jessica Aiken-Hall is a crime/thriller book. It is a story that pulled me in from the beginning and I didn’t want to put it down until the final page. It is a book that had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. The story finds Valerie Williamson’s life going very well. She has a wedding to plan for, wonderful friends, and a handsome fiancé. Will all of that be upset with the news of a serial killer in Lawerenceville? Tim, her fiancé, is busy trying to find the one responsible for the murders. Valerie wonders if the connection between the murders is more than a coincidence. Will Valerie discover who the serial killer is? Read this book to find out. This story had me turning pages. I love the comradery between Valerie and the additional characters in the story. I also loved reading about the bantering that goes back and forth between Valerie and Tim. They make a wonderful couple and I couldn’t help but want them to be happy. This is the second book in a series and to fully understand this story they should be read in order. This book does have characters dealing with sensitive subjects. The story also has some twists that I did not see coming. Don’t miss out on a book that will have you reading far into the night to finish. I would highly recommend reading it.

Foxxy has never had a perfect life until one fateful night. With Robin Hood as her partner, Foxxy is an equalizer who is out for blood after being assaulted by her pimp, Eddie. Trying to save money to move away and start fresh, Foxxy is out to settle the score after all the horrors her ex-pimp put her through. At a ballroom party, a stranger catches her eye but connects them both in one another’s lives. Robin couldn’t let her go as she knew without a shadow of a doubt that she was the one for him. Foxxy is out to get revenge for every woman Eddie has ever tortured with the help of Robin. As she steps into who she’s out to be as an equalizer, Foxxy realizes that this is who she’s supposed to be. This book took me by surprise at how good it was but also multilayered. There’s a great sense of action from characters out to seek vengeance even in a completely fictional way.

Calamity under the Chandelier (A Sleuthing Starlet Mystery Book 1) By Camilla Blythe 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Calamity under the Chandelier (A Sleuthing Starlet Mystery Book 1) by Camilla Blythe. It is a mystery novel that hooked me in from the beginning. I loved reading about the character of Cora Clarke. She follows her best friend and fellow actress to England and ends up in the middle of a mystery. When someone is killed and her friend becomes a suspect, Cora becomes determined to find out who the murderer is. Read this book to find out the full story and if Cora is successful in her search. This is a book that had me guessing all the way through. There are twists that I didn’t see coming. I found myself turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. The tension is high, and the suspicions run deep. The body count rises. Don’t miss out on an entertaining story that will have you reading far into the night. I would highly recommend reading this book.
