Review: Dare You To by Katie McGarry
Truthfully I may have just grown out of this type of book – young adult that is full of angst and drama. While I was and still am a fan of Twilight (and understand it’s weaknesses) this kind of serious teen drama has never been my favorite. However, I’d heard so many amazing things about Katie McGarry that I decided to give Dare You To a try …

However, a wrench is thrown into her plan when she finds out that the ex-fiance she hasn’t seen in over 10 years is the new president of the school. This doesn’t phase Anne because she’s over him…isn’t she? The more Anne sees of Adam, the more she wonders if she made the right decision in letting him go …
Review: A Madness of Sunshine by Nalini Singh
I’ve been a longtime fan of Nalini Singh’s writing. Within the romance realm she’s quite well known and loved, with good reason. A Madness of Sunshine is her first foray into the suspense/thriller/mystery genre and is a solid, if somewhat predicable read.
Anahera has come back to the small, remote town of Golden Cove …
