Synopsis

 DIVERGENT meets OCEAN’S EIGHT in this urban fantasy heist!
On my seventeenth birthday, I wake up in the hospital to find I just survived a sketchy but terrible accident. My parents stand by my bedside—both are beautiful, wealthy, and super-nice. They tell me that once I leave the hospital, I’ll attend the prestigious ECHO Academy, where I’ll churn out equations for the government along with my mega-smart peers.
So, I’m living the perfect life.
Then why does everything feel all wrong?
My parents, my house and even ECHO Academy…none of it fits. Plus, what’s up with Thorne, my brooding yet yummy classmate who keeps telling me I need to remember my true past, which seems to have included a lot of us kissing? That’s one thing I’d really like to remember, except for the fact that I’m pretty sure Thorne is hiding a ton of nasty secrets of his own, including the fact that he may not be from this world. But considering how my own past seems alien to me, it’s not like I can judge. Plus, Thorne has dimples. That’s a problem.
And worst of all, why does it feel so yucky to work on these calculations for the government? It’s all supposed to be part of ECHO, but my heart tells me that I’m helping something truly terrible come to pass. Thorne seems to think that kissing him again will release my real memories.
Maybe it’s time to pucker up.
“Appealing and engaging. Love the strong female character!” – Arlene’s Book Reviews

Review

 Wow, this was one hell of a book. :) I just finished it and my thoughts are nowhere coherent. I knew from reading prequel that it will be amazing & was super hyped about it, but the story just blew my mind. :)

Wisteria wakes up in a hospital bed and the creepy doctor explains how she lost all her memories because of the accident and has to work for him on his super evil plan. She is guarded by Thorne who seems very familiar and goes for hot to cold all the time. Seeing the evilness of doctors plan she agrees to help him and forms a little side plan herself. She assembles a team, but it's not all smooth sailing. They are hardly a team at first, the doctor keeps interfering, crazy emperors are lurking, and there is always a chance from the plan to fail. No to spoil anything, but the ending is epic. :)

There is lots of sciency stuff (my favorite), loads of scheming, secret plan, plans within plan... so many plans 😁(another favorite thing), non-stop action and so many twists and turns, and romance... ahhh... 💚

One of the best books I've read this year ... 💚💚💚

Highly recommend it!

 Happy reading,
Anie

Cat Jones is happy with her sheltered quiet life until her mom's crazy friends challenge her to say yes to everything for a month. Her first response is definitely no, but somehow she is convinced to give it a try. The first thing she says yes to is a nightly swim in the cold sea with a group of colourful characters. Next is to host a very popular daily show along the TV royalty, offered by a hot TV executive. She not only changes her life, one yes at a time but also inspires her two best friends to go along with her. I love this book! I was sucked into the story from the very start and had to read it in one swoop.  It tells the story of how saying yes to life, can change it fundamentally. Cat goes through huge personal growth, finding new friendships, transforming old ones, and new jobs and meets all kinds of people along the way, along with a TV executive who makes her heart flutter.  The story is funny, inspirational with lots of friendships of all varieties and a little bit of

Freya just lost her business, her car broke down and is being evicted. As her life crumbles around her, she realises nothing is holding her at Blossomwood.  So she goes to the French countryside. Her estranged uncle died a year ago and his house which should have already been sold is still on the market. The real estate agent that should be the best is no help. With her parents always on the road, she takes it upon herself to clean up the place and sees to the sale.  As she explores the town, she meets all of the wonderful people living there and falls in love with the town and the town mechanic. It's a lovely story, so full of French vibes that it makes you want to move to Provence. There is romance, but the best part was the growth that Freya went through and the small-town vibes. It's a bit long in places with descriptions. However, that doesn't take away the charm of it. rating❤❤❤❤ cover❤❤❤❤ book info series The Blossomwood Bay #2 genre romance, contemporary, adult publ
