This novel is about Siya, a university student who very much wants to be a successful writer. Her domineering father, who is paying for her education, expects her to major in a much more lucrative area, like medicine or engineering. To him, writing, even as a hobby, is totally unacceptable. Siya approaches her English teacher for help.

Lynsey is stuck in a marriage where "the thrill is gone," and is trying to start her own writing career. Inexplicably, Lynsey is drawn to Siya. What happens when a student-teacher romance is born? Can Siya and Lynsey have any sort of relationship, or is it doomed from the start?

This is a very good first book in a series. It is a short novel, about 100 pages. For anyone who is concerned, the "lesbian romance" part (do they consummate their relationship?) is very mild, almost non-existent. Yes, this book is worth reading.… (meer)

I liked the way Riley Lucas composed the 10 Hollywood homicides detailed in Hollywood Homicides: Famous Celebrity Murders in Tinseltown. It was a very interesting read and not bogged down by a lot of details.

Each of the stories was a synopsis including the victims history, crime, facts, suspicions, verdict, aftermath and legacy. It was clear cut and I learned a lot in the recap of each event.

I received this book free from the author in exchange for a review. For more information about Riley Lucas check out: http://www.rileylucas.com/… (meer)
