The Iron Quill by Shelena Shorts Review.

This is the 3rd instalment in Shelena Short's The Pace series. 

This book starts quite slowly but it definitely picks up its pace (no pun intended) about 100 pages in. 

The series follows a young woman who meets a guy who has secrets. In the first book they meet and fall in love, the second book shows some development of that love and some of the issues the characters face and the third book continues that development and is quite heart wrenching at moments. 

The main issue I had with this book were that in the first 100 or so pages we saw from another character's perspective as well as the main girl's alternatively. This character doesn't have a huge role in the series (up till the end of book 3 anyway).

The story does really develop in this book as we see the characters reveal certain things to certain people and events happen that you might not expect. 

It's still a very "love" based story but nothing indecent or sexual is mentioned, although the act is committed between two consenting adults. Also there was a questionable language reference within. 

Look forward to my review of the final book in The Pace series - The Hour Of Dreams coming soon...

American Royals (#1 American Royals) by Katharine McGee review

Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished American Royals by Katherine McGee and I LOVED it! If you love scandal and complicated love stories in a contemporary setting, then you will love it as well! Think a royal version of Gossip Girl and you have this book in a nutshell. American Royals follows six characters, all of the new adult age range that come together to create a story of intrigue and romance. There isn’t high action or really a plot outside of the romance which was fine with me as I really enjoy stories just focused on the romance. I appreciated how “American Royals” only focused on the six different characters. There weren’t loads of personalities to get to know, and they all followed the same pattern as they’re all from or have grown up around a certain standing in society. This made the characters easy to follow and understand. It is a character led story, without as I said, much plot.  What there is of a plot of American Royals is taken up with the ascension of ...

Rebound (The Pentagon Book 1) by Rosemary Rey Review

Hey ForeverBookers,  How are you all doing today? I hope you’re well!  I’ve just finished rereading Rebound by Rosemary Rey and I loved it! From recollection I loved it the first time I read it as well, about 5 years ago.  5 Stars! I read this for a few readathons: For Reading Rivalry - A book I think should be turned into a movie - I’d love to see this play out on television, actually but a movie is close enough.  For Litwits - A love story - that’s the central plot of Rebound and the whole Pentagon trilogy.  Literary Love Affair - Soulmate Love - Perla and Matt are what I class as realistic soulmates. Popsugar Reading Challenge 2019 - A book by an author whose first and last names start with the same letter - Rosemary Rey.  Rebound is set in America and is about an almost 30 year old woman, Perla Mercurio and a doctor, Matthias Keene who have a very passionate affair...do they fall in love??? You’ll have to read to find ...
