The Scam by Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg

I recently read The Scam by Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg. This is the fourth book in the Fox and O’Hare series. This story follows FBI agent O’Hare while she “chases” Nick Fox, at least that's what most of the FBI thinks. She actually works with Fox and the FBI to recover items and money that were illegally taken. In this story O’Hare and Fox enter the world of gambling in order to uncover money laundering. It's a scam that leads the two to different countries and many under cover operations. Their only back up is a highly unusual mix of people.

I almost always enjoy Ms. Evanovich’s books. They are fun, and entertaining along with mystery. The story was great! I love the will they or won't they aspect of Fox and O’Hare’s relationship. I enjoyed this book and cannot wait for her next one!  Mr. Goldberg has written some of my favorite tv shows. I have been enjoying his books too. I look forward to reading more.

Killing Monica by Candace Bushnell

I recently read Killing Monica by Candace Bushnell. This story follows writer Pandy Wallis, AKA PJ Wallis. PJ writes a character named Monica that is somewhat based on her. Monica has become very popular and has had several movies made about her. People love the character, while PJ on the other hand is ready to move on and write something more meaningful. Her publisher would like her to keep writing Monica. At the same time that her publisher is trying her to keep writing Monica her husband is also pushing her to continue, but his reasoning behind it is not what it should be.

I really enjoyed this book. As I was reading I could not help but wonder if Ms. Bushnell experienced something similar with her publisher after Sex and The City. Overall, Killing Monica was a great story.  I honestly was surprised by the ending. It was definitely something I didn't see it coming! Make sure you read the story to the end!

Turn Back Time by Beth Harbison

I recently read Turn Back Time by Beth Harbison. We have all had days we wish we were back in the "good old days" of high school. We also have the days and times we wish never happened. This story follows Ramie Phillips. Ramie seems to have everything she could want, or does she? She starts to want more. While on a trip for her birthday she has an accident and wakes up back in high school. She has a chance to relive life, but will she make the same decisions she previously made, or will she choose a different option and change her future?

 I am new to reading Ms. Harbison's books. So far I have not been disappointed. I honestly did not know what to expect. I thought it was a slightly odd premise. However once I started reading I could not put it down. It made me think about events and choices I have made in the past. If I had the chance to re-live a situation would I still make the same choice I made, or would I choose a different path? It has been a while since I read a fun, enjoyable book that made me think so much. I highly recommend this story.

Wicked Charms by Janet Evanovich

I recently read Wicked Charms by Janet Evanovich. This story follows Lizzy and Diesel to obtain the Stone of Avarice. It begins when Lizzy accidentally discovers a body and a piece of coin. The coin is a small clue that will help her find the stone. The coin pieces causes people to become filled with greed. In the process of searching fun ensues. 

I love this story. As with Ms. Evanovich’s other stories this book contains the right amount of fun, mystery, romantic twists and hysterical antics. I always enjoy her books. I cannot wait for her next one! I highly recommend that you read this book, but remember it is a series. If you have not read this series start with book one, Wicked Appetite. Enjoy.

The Balance Project by Susie Orman Schnall



The Balance project by Susie Orman Schnall

This story follows Lucy. She is the assistant for Katherine Whitney. Katherine runs her own company, is a wife and mother and is about to add author to her biography. Her book is about how to balance life and work, something she seems to be having issues accomplishing. She becomes extremely dependent on her assistant Lucy who is soon faced with a difficult decision after a situation arises. 

Most people aren't strangers to the the dream of having it all. People often try, and each of us handle it in a very different way. Some are successful, some are not. How one approaches the situation can lead to many different outcomes. This story shows how one approach can affect several lives.

Royal Wedding by Meg Cabot



When I last visited the world of Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermapolis Renaldo, Princess of Genovia it was 2009.  I loved her last set of diaries.
