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.

Book Review: Marrow by Tarryn Fisher

This book is definitely unique. I'm still not sure what happened. Margo Moon is a the prostitute's daughter. Her mother can be harsh and uncaring, similar to the place she calls home. Margo moves from the shy girl not wanting to be seen to a strong girl that is wanting to dish out poetic justice. As she moves through the book she starts to act on her instincts of justice. Some of the scenes will make you want to cringe as well as cheer her on. The people that receive her poetic justice are more than deserving of it but the idea of taking a life is also a hard thing to embrace. I don't blame her yet I do. It's very confusing and it makes you think about what you would do if you were in Margo's situation.  Move forward in the book some more and you find that she is suffering from a mental disorder. She has made up certain people in her life, or has she? I don't completely trust her doctor either and if you've read Mud Vein then you know why. I never could re...

Review: Coming Alive by Renee Harless

I finished Coming Alive by Renee Harless last night and I can't wait to start the next in the series. Review below: This was my first book by Harless and I wasn't disappointed. She has a great way of making you feel the emotions of the characters and boy did this book have the emotion. Harless puts Avery through so much and yet she still manages to move forward which makes her such an inspiring character. Avery--is a girl who has been through hell and back and is still standi ng. Everyone would understand if she gave up but she never does. I'm not sure how this poor girl didn't drown in her grief. She's also one of the most selfless characters I've read about. Logan--is the guy that every girl wants to be with and at first I'll admit I thought he only went after Avery because she was saying no. However he surprised me when he truly feel for Avery. His back story is heartbreaking as well but I was glad to see him let go of that a move forward. ...
