Book Review: Returned to the Light by C.M. Radcliff

I got this ARC and I was so happy to read it! C.M. Radcliff does it again! I'll post the link for the book once it's released! Add it to your goodreads list below!

This book put my broken heart back together. I'm so glad that Radcliff didn't leave Ryder and Lydia where they were in the first book. I'm also glad I didn't have to wait for the second book since I discovered the duet now. This book was so great. There was plenty of drama, hope, love and suspense. Radcliff did such an amazing job of creating fear and suspense in the first book that I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop (luckily it didn't but I just knew it was going to happen lol).  I was sad to see that it had been a couple of years since the last book but it worked well. Radcliff did do a great justice by giving us justice for Lydia though!

Lydia--returns back home after two years of being away. After being kidnapped and tortured she had to leave in order to heal. She left behind Ryder which was no easy task. Over the past couple of years her life has changed in a lot of ways. She now has a relationship with Griffin which I found odd at first but then it grew on me. However, she has a reason for returning and it's to tell a secret...a big secret! 

Ryder--is a drunken mess without Lydia and for the past two years that's all he's done. He's haunted by her memories and still wanting to get revenge on Jared for what he did to her. When he first finds out that she has returned he goes through a mixture of emotions, all of which you feel with him as the reader. Soon things seem to be on the right track but of course it could never be that easy. 

The ending repairs all the damage the first book may have caused to your heart and gives you so much hope and happiness. I hated to see it end because I love Lydia and Ryder but they couldn't have gotten a better ending.

Meet the characters of Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn

As I finish up the edits on Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn I thought you might enjoy seeing the pictures that inspired the characters. Enjoy! Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn follows the story of Jagger James and Londynn Parrish. Jagger is one of five brothers that have a need for speed. They are all named after 80s music stars, they all race as if their lives depend on it and their all a little bad ass. They grew up on the poorer side of town but it only made them fight harder at the races every weekend.  Jagger met a girl named Harlyn Bexton as a teenager and quickly fell in love. After high school they started a life together only to have tragedy strike. Staying in L.A. is out of the question for Jagger afterwards so he runs to Vegas only to return five years later. Londynn Parrish is your typical trust fund baby. Born and raised in one of the richest parts of L.A., attended a private academy and was given anything money could buy. However, what she wants isn
