DESCRIPTION:

Preparing the empty house for another viewing, she knows she’s taking a risk showing it at night. She never told anyone she was here, but she desperately needs this sale. If she pulls it off, she can finally give her daughter the life she deserves. But as she climbs the stairs, goosebumps spread down her arms. She’s not alone…

When the body of realtor Christine Lane is discovered in one of Woodbridge’s most affluent homes, Detective Amanda Steele is left reeling. The victim was dating Amanda’s half-brother, making him an immediate suspect. They’ve never been close but Amanda knows he’s not a killer.

As forensics move in to process the crime scene, Amanda is ambushed by a well-dressed woman desperately trying to get inside the house. Dominique Sharp is a successful lawyer and expected her house to be sold by the time she returned from a business trip to DC. Could she have been the intended target?

Delving into Dominique’s business, Amanda and Trent discover a long line of disgruntled employees and a dark web of secrets that lead them to a killer who will stop at nothing to get their deadly revenge on her.

But can Amanda take the greatest risk of her career to lure the killer back into the light? And will she have to sacrifice someone close to her to ensure justice is finally served?

A totally addictive and pulse-pounding crime thriller that will have you turning the pages late into the night. Perfect for fans of Mary Burton, Elle Gray and A. J. Rivers.

MY THOUGHTS:

In Dead Woman Walking by Carolyn Arnold, Detective Amanda Steele’s relationship with her half-brother has always been strained, so when the woman he was dating is found dead, Amanda doesn’t hesitate. She knows she has to stand by him. As the person closest to the victim, he quickly becomes the primary suspect, and Amanda is determined to uncover the truth before it’s too late.

Throwing herself into the investigation, Amanda uncovers a troubling possibility. The victim, Christine Lane, may have simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time. The real target appears to be Dominique Sharp, a homeowner whose house was on the market and being shown while she was away on business. With this shift in perspective, Amanda refocuses her efforts, realizing that understanding Dominique’s life could be the key to unraveling the case.

This is far from an easy investigation for Amanda. The deeper she digs, the more personal and costly the case becomes. Still, her relentless pursuit of justice drives her forward, no matter the toll.

What I really appreciated about this story is how it blends a compelling mystery with Amanda’s personal stakes. The tension never lets up, and the emotional weight behind her choices adds an extra layer of depth. By the time the truth comes to light, it feels well-earned and satisfying. This is another solid installment that kept me engaged from beginning to end, and it’s clear that Amanda Steele’s determination is what makes this series so hard to put down. I look forward to the 16th book in the series, which is set for release in August.

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

Author:  Elizabeth Berg

Publisher:  Random House

Genre:   Contemporary 

Format:  Kindle ARC

No. of Pages:   208

Date of Publication:  March 17, 2024

My Rating:   4 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

In this warm, intimate novel, a woman celebrates the joy she finds in the ordinary things in life and discovers it’s never too late to start new adventures. By the New York Times bestselling author of The Story of Arthur Truluv and Open House

Florence “Flo” Greene is nearing the end of her life, and she decides to leave her house and an account of her life for Ruthie, the younger woman who grew up next door, moved away, and still is like a surrogate daughter. As Flo writes to Ruthie about the meaning of beloved things in her home and about events in her past, she also tries new adventures of her own. She intervenes in the lives of friends in her neighborhood.

Flo's project has been to encourage Teresa, a wise but unconfident woman, to open her heart to romance. Flo goes to the library to get advice from Mimi, a librarian. She encourages Ruthie, who is contemplating divorce, to try again with her husband, by sharing a startling secret long buried about Flo’s own seemingly perfect husband and marriage.

In her final weeks, Flo leaves an indelible mark on others, as this moving novel celebrates life, change, and ways to discover new happiness, friendship, and love.

MY THOUGHTS:

What a sweet story of an unexpected friendship. Flo Greene knows that she is dying, so she sets out to leave behind a meaningful legacy. It begins simply, with a letter to a woman named Ruthie who once lived next door, but that small act soon ripples outward. Through her words, Flo becomes a quiet yet powerful source of inspiration to a woman named Teresa.

The story feels like a chain of connected moments, each one leading naturally to the next. Flo’s desire to help Ruthie navigate her difficult marriage is just one example of how she reaches beyond herself. Her influence doesn’t stop there  It also touches another woman named Teresa as well, shaping the choices she may one day face. Through these connections, Flo’s vulnerability shines through in such a genuine way, making her presence all the more impactful.

In the end, this is a gentle, heartfelt story about the ways we leave pieces of ourselves behind in others. Elizabeth Berg captures the beauty of small gestures and quiet courage, reminding us that even in life’s final chapter, there is still so much opportunity to love, to guide, and to make a difference.

Many thanks to Random House and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

AUDIOBOOK REVIEW - Daughter of Egypt

Title:  Daughter of Egypt

Author:  Marie Benedict

Publisher:  Macmillan Audio

Genre:   Historical Fiction 

Format:  Kindle ARC and Audiobook ALC

Narrators:  Bessie Carter; Suehly El-Attar

Length:  11 hrs 8 mins 

No. of Pages:  320

Date of Publication:  March 24, 2026

My Rating:  5 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Marie Benedict comes an extraordinary story of the woman who helped uncover Tutankhamun's tomb and the mystery behind Egypt’s first woman Pharaoh.

1920’s London was enthralled by the discovery of the treasure-filled tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Filled with priceless statues, jewels, and the gold-encased mummy of the boy Pharaoh himself, the burial site unleashed a fascination with the ancient world and revolutionized the world of archeology.

The discovery was made by Lord Carnarvon of Highclere Castle and his associate, famed archeologist Howard Carter. What no one knows is that without the pioneering spirit of Lady Evelyn Herbert, Carnarvon’s daughter, the tomb might never have been found. As a young woman, Evelyn was fascinated by the story of Hatshepsut, a woman who had to assume the guise of a man in order to rule Egypt. Although she brought peace and prosperity to Egypt, her male successors ruthlessly and thoroughly erased her name from history.

Lady Evelyn’s ambition to find the tomb of Egypt’s first woman ruler exposes her to life-threatening danger and pits her against archeologists who refuse to believe the tomb can be found―and certainly not by a woman. Refusing to give up, Evelyn is on the verge of success when she is suddenly forced to make an agonizing choice between loyalty to her beloved father and Carter and realizing the dream of a lifetime.

MY THOUGHTS:

Marie Benedict’s talent for bringing real historical events to life truly shines in her latest novel, Daughter of Egypt. This fictionalized, dual-timeline story centered on the discovery of Pharaoh Tutankhamun’s tomb is compelling from beginning to end.

As a longtime lover of historical fiction, I always pay close attention to the Author’s Notes that follow a novel, and this one did not disappoint. The story of King Tut’s tomb has been explored many times, but Benedict goes beyond the familiar mystery. Her meticulous research is evident on every page, adding depth and authenticity that elevates the narrative.

Reading this book also stirred a personal sense of nostalgia. I was reminded of the immersive King Tut exhibition at the Field Museum in Chicago in the late ’70s. My aunt and grandmother attended, and it sparked countless conversations in our family. Having the chance to experience this story through both the Kindle ARC and the audiobook felt almost like stepping back into those moments. I could vividly picture the photos my grandmother once proudly shared with us, which made the reading experience all the more meaningful.

In the end, Daughter of Egypt is more than just a retelling of a famous discovery. It’s a richly layered story that blends history, imagination, and emotion in a way that lingers long after the final page. It reminded me why I’m drawn to historical fiction in the first place: the ability to connect the past to our own lives in unexpected and unforgettable ways.

Many thanks to Macmillan Audio and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

Review - A Deadly Inheritance

Title:    A Deadly Inheritance

Author:  Kelley Armstrong

Genre:   YA Mystery/Thrillers

Publisher:   Tundra Book Group

Format:  Kindle ARC

No. of Pages:  424

Date of Publication:  March 24, 2026

My Rating:  4 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

After discovering she's an heiress to a billion-dollar corporation, seventeen-year-old Liliana finds herself at a new boarding school where she must navigate secret societies and a deadly competition. Not to mention two handsome boys. 

The Reappearance of Rachel Price meets The Inheritance Games series in this new YA thriller from bestselling author Kelley Armstrong.

In the wake of her mother's death, Liliana Chamberlain's estranged (and very wealthy) grandparents swoop in. Or their lawyer does. Her grandparents aren't ready to meet her, but they want her to have the life her mother walked away from, starting with Westwood Academy, the elite boarding school her mother attended. It should be a Cinderella dream come true, but Lili has serious misgivings. Yet she doesn't have a choice, being under eighteen and dead broke.

Westwood Academy is a school of secrets as well as intriguing classmates, including Hollywood golden boy Theo Dubois and the mysterious Maddox Moreno. As she gets to know them all, Lili realizes there's more to the school than elite-level networking. Something deadly.

For the new girl at school, investigating the deaths of past students — including Maddox's own sister — is a very dangerous game. Do those deaths have something to do with why her mother fled Westdale at the cost of her inheritance?

When a fun night out turns bloody, Theo is the prime suspect, and Liliana must race against time to connect the past with the present and discover the truth behind her inheritance.

MY THOUGHTS:

Liliana Chamberlain’s life is upended after the death of her parents. Barely even able to mourn her mother’s loss, she is briefly reconnected with her grandparents. Actually, they are beyond wealthy Whisked away to an elite boarding school, Liliana must quickly adjust to a world that couldn’t be more different from the one she grew up in. Overnight, she goes from struggling to get by to learning she’s an heiress  - but as she soon realizes, money doesn’t guarantee happiness.

School is hard. Secrets abound. Secret societies. And murder. Trying to fit in doesn’t come easy for Liliana, especially as she herself becomes the target of murder. This YA thriller delivers exactly what you’d hope for from a dark academia mystery: a moody atmosphere, plenty of tension, and a cast of intriguing characters. Kelley Armstrong weaves these elements together into a compelling and suspenseful read.

Many thanks to Tundra Book Group and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Kelley Armstrong has been telling stories since before she could write. Her earliest written efforts were disastrous. If asked for a story about girls and dolls, hers would invariably feature undead girls and evil dolls, much to her teachers' dismay. All efforts to make her produce "normal" stories failed.

Today, she continues to spin tales of ghosts and demons and werewolves, while safely locked away in her basement writing dungeon. She's the author of the NYT-bestselling "Women of the Otherworld" paranormal suspense series and "Darkest Powers" young adult urban fantasy trilogy, as well as the Nadia Stafford crime series. Armstrong lives in southwestern Ontario with her husband, kids and far too many pets.

Review - Family Lies

Title:  Family Lies

Author:  Karen Rose

Series:  The San Diego Case Files #4
Publisher:  Berkley Books

Genre:   Mystery & Thrillers

Format:  Kindle ARC 

No. of Pages:   528

Date of Publication:   March 31, 2026

My Rating:   5 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

The fourth nerve-shattering installment of the San Diego Case Files from New York Times bestselling author Karen Rose sees Kit McKittrick’s sister caught in a maelstrom of deadly family secrets.

As an infant, Kit McKittrick’s foster sister Akiko was abandoned at a firehouse. Now 32, Akiko has received an unsettling phone call from a woman who says that she knew her birth mother but refuses to divulge any details except in person. Akiko is nervous but also thrilled at the prospect of finally learning about her blood relations.

Kit has a bad feeling about this and insists on accompanying Akiko to meet the woman. Sure enough, as they stand on Mary Sherman’s doorstep, shots are fired and Kit is hit...and inside the house is a corpse: Mary Sherman herself.

Although she’s on medical leave and forbidden to work the case, Kit cannot rest. With police psychologist Sam Reeves, she undertakes a covert investigation into the mysterious Mary Sherman. Was she Akiko’s birth mother? Why did she reach out after all these years? And who had a motive to kill her?

As more bodies pile up, Kit starts to put together the pieces of the frightening puzzle that is Akiko’s birth family, and she’ll come to wonder whether some secrets should stay buried after all.

MY THOUGHTS:

Kit McKittrick, a homicide detective, has dedicated her life to justice after her adopted sister’s murder. Despite her career’s occasional deviations, she’s built a stellar record. Now, she’s faced another crisis when one of her adopted sisters, Akiko, is in danger. Akiko, like many foster children, is eager to meet her birth mother.

Kit’s protective instincts kick in when Akiko decides to meet her mother. However, things take a turn for the worse when they arrive at the house. Shots ring out, and Kit is shot. The woman, Mary Sherman, is found dead. Kit feels that the sudden contact between Akiko and Mary Sherman, coupled with Mary’s murder, is not a coincidence.

Kit’s injury leads to her being placed on medical leave and is also forbidden from any involvement in the case. But Kit’s determination knows no bounds. She risks her career by delving deeper into the investigation, uncovering shocking revelations about Akiko’s natural family. Kit’s quest for answers is not in vain; she has the support of police psychologist Sam Reeves, who helps her navigate the complexities of the case. Together, they hope to find the truth and bring Akiko the closure she deserves. All the while, their relationship deepens during this intense time Kit, Akiko and their family is experiencing. 

Tragically, the murder of Mary Sherman marks the beginning of a series of unsettling events. Other murders follow, and somehow, they all converge on Akiko’s birth family. Family Lies is an utterly captivating read that delves into both emotional and hard-hitting themes. Kit’s unwavering love and determination for Akiko are palpable, and their bond is as strong as any sisterly relationship. When Akiko finds herself entangled in danger while exploring her roots, Kit’s love and resolve shine through. 

This fourth book in the San Diego series is just as intense and emotionally compelling as its predecessors, with the tension never wavering. Readers are left eagerly anticipating the next installment in this gripping series. 

Many thanks to Berkley Books and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

AUDIOBOOK REVIEW - Killing Me Softly

Title:  Killing Me Softly

Author:  Sandie Jones

Publisher:  Macmillan Audio

Genre:   Mystery/Thrillers

Format:  Audio ALC and Kindle ARC

Length:  8 hrs 50 mins

Narrators:  Matthew Biddulph; 

  Anna Burnett

No. of Pages:   320

Date of Publication:   March 31, 2026

My Rating:  3 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Reese's Book Club Pick The Other Womanand The Guilt Trip comes a twisty and suspenseful new novel about love turned deadly.

Charlie and Freya used to be the picture-perfect couple everyone in their idyllic village in the Cotswolds envied—and if you couldn’t be them, you wanted to be with them. Happy, healthy, forging successful careers, and with a beautiful son in tow, they had it all . . . until one night a tragedy tears their lives apart. 

Unable to live with themselves, let alone each other, they’re looking for someone to blame and who they land on is each other.

Told from both Freya and Charlie’s perspectives, a cat and mouse game ensues, as each of them become determined to win-out against the other, both battling to emerge victorious and guilty-conscience-free. But can Freya stay one step ahead of the man who knows her best? Or will Charlie’s stoic conviction to get what he wants, be the death of her?

Sandie Jones’s latest addictive novel is a wickedly twisty tale of obsession and the deadly consequences of loving someone too much.

Link to purchase the book

MY THOUGHTS:  

The morning after a party, Freya and Charlie make a shocking discovery. Not only do they learn from the police that there has been a hit-and-run accident, apparently their car is involved. From that moment on, the lies begin to stack up. The question quickly becomes: are they lying to protect each other, or themselves? Beneath it all, it is clear that their marriage is already riddled with deep issues, and as the story unfolds, it begins to unravel completely.

The story is told from both Freya and Charlie’s points of view, and they are clearly unreliable narrators. This adds an element of tension, as it’s never entirely clear what really happened. The short, punchy chapters help maintain momentum, and as an audiobook, it was an easy and engaging listen that kept me moving through the story.

That said, I struggled to connect with the characters. Both Freya and Charlie are difficult to like, and Charlie’s controlling nature in particular pushes things to an uncomfortable level, further blurring the lines between truth and deception. I also found Freya’s mother to be more of a distraction than an asset to the story.

While this one didn’t fully work for me, I can appreciate the tightly paced structure and the way the dual perspectives keep the tension simmering. Fans of messy relationships and morally complex characters may find more to enjoy here, even if it wasn’t quite the right fit for me.

Many thanks to Macmillan Audio and Minotaur Books and to NetGalley for this ARC for review  This is my honest opinion.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

I’ve always enjoyed writing - in fact, English was pretty much the only exam (in my whole life!) that I passed with flying colours. However it took ten years for me to realise that I might actually be able to make a living from doing what I loved.

So for the next two decades I worked as a journalist, (articles below), interviewing celebrities from George Clooney to Justin Timberlake and Ozzy Osbourne to Dame Maggie Smith.

But it wasn’t until 2017, that I decided to try my hand at writing fiction – not with the intention of writing a book that would get published, but just to prove to myself that I had the dedication and willpower needed. Yet once I started, I couldn’t stop!

The result was my debut The Other Woman, which was a 2018 New York Times Bestseller and a Reese Witherspoon Pick. It also sold in fourteen other languages, and to say I’m still reeling from the shock of it all, is something of an understatement!

My second novel The First Mistake was published in 2019, and The Half Sister, which is available to pre-order now, is out in June.

I’m currently writing my fourth, as yet untitled novel, in London, where I live with my husband and three children.

No. of Pages:  224

Date of Publication:  March 31, 2026

My Rating: 5 Stars

DESCRIPTION:

A heartwarming duo of tales about unexpected love and family, from the bonds of sisterhood to the magic of friends to lovers, and the joys of infants and fur babies, plus all the surprises romance has to offer, even amid life’s missteps . . .

THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE * LORI FOSTER

Compared to her smart, responsible twin, Laylee has always been labeled the party girl sister. Now she’s really screwed up by finding herself possibly accidentally pregnant, and definitely not in love. With her sister away on her honeymoon, Laylee’s only confidant is her guy friend, Knox. There’s mutual attraction there, yet they’ve been tiptoeing around it. But telling Knox everything may change . . . well, everything. Especially amid a comedy of pregnancy test errors, a robbery, a cat rescue mission—and the realization that Knox sees her as so much more than a pretty face . . . .

THE RANCHER’S UNEXPECTED FAMILY * MAISEY YATES

Ellie Jones helplessly watched her beloved sister, Sarah, spiral into addiction in high school, thanks to her toxic relationship with Ty Porter. Ellie, now a teacher, hasn’t seen Sarah in over a year when she gets a call from Child Protective Services that Sarah has a baby—and she’s surrendered her parental rights. Ellie races to the hospital, but someone’s beat her to rodeo champion Clark Porter, the baby’s uncle. Clark’s a good man and he’ll be damned if his niece grows up without him. Until they find a custody solution, Ellie will just have to move into his ranch house. Temporarily. Obviously. Except that they’re attracted to each other. Risking the unconventional family they’re creating is the last thing they need. Then again, if what they feel is deeper than attraction, it may be what they need most . . .

MY THOUGHTS:

THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE * LORI FOSTER

Laylee suspects she might be pregnant, and her first thought is to share this news with her twin sister, Laura. Unfortunately, Laura is currently away on her honeymoon. Laylee now knows Knox through marriage and, before long, they start spending more time together. There’s definitely a strong connection between them. However, Laylee is concerned about how Knox would react to her potential pregnancy. Their story unfolds rapidly, but it’s filled with heartwarming moments. From friendship to chemistry to love, Lori Foster’s story is sure to warm your heart. 

THE RANCHER’S UNEXPECTED FAMILY * MAISEY YATES

“Walked into that hospital as two single people and walked out as parents..”

Clark Porter and Ellie Parks, siblings to both parents of a newborn, make the heartfelt decision to adopt the baby that neither want to give up. As co-parents, they will embark on a journey of navigating their lives together. Despite a shared past, reconnecting now that they have a new niece, Marjorie, is bound to alter their lives forever. It soon becomes apparent that Marjorie is not the only link between them. In fact, Clark and Ellie share a chemistry that demands exploration. This heartwarming and tender story is a delightful read.

Lori Foster is my favorite author, so this book was an easy choice for me. I love that the proceeds from this anthology go toward helping pets in animal shelters. Although I received this as a review copy, I’ll definitely be purchasing a copy for my keeper shelf.

Many thanks to Kensington and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
