Stealing Jason Wilde by Dee Ernst

I didn't think that I would enjoy this book as much as I did, so it was a nice surprise when I found myself so engaged I couldn't stop reading! I'm extremely tired this morning as I write this as I stayed up for most of the night to finish the book. I had to see how it ended - I was not disappointed!

Every year, Annie and some of her friends get together for a week away in the Hamptons, away from husbands and kids. Newly divorced, Annie finds herself with 3 of her friends going on their annual trip, only this time she is ready for adventure! She finds herself agreeing to go stake out a celebrity so her obsessed friend can meet him. Imagine her surprise when they meet that celebrity, Jason Wilde, have a few drinks with him, watch him pass out, and take him home so he can sleep it off. Before they know it, they are being wanted for kidnapping him! Police are involved, and when some misunderstandings occur, the FBI gets involved as well! How's that for an adventure?

At first, I was unsure how much I would like this story, given the characters are older and I could not relate to them. That time was unnecessary because I became so wrapped up in their world from the start. In a what-happens-next fashion, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.

Give this one a try! There's mystery! There's romance! There's celebrities! The Hamptons! Who wouldn't want this much fun on their vacation?

I received this e-book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

When Dreams Come True by Rebecca Emin

This charming story made me nostalgic for that time in your childhood when you begin to mature and you go crazy not understanding why your friends are acting strange, and why you begin to see people you knew your whole life in a different way. Charlie, having just started year nine (that's 13 years old for those who don't know) is going through a lot - her friends since childhood are changing (Max, Toby and Allie), her Aunt is sick and she's starting to have very vivid dreams that start coming true causing her to find out family secrets, and the thoughts of her friends.  When I read the summary, I thought this was going to be a fanciful tale of "I dreamed I could make people fly and look there they go." I'm so glad it wasn't. No one turned into a vampire. No one changed into an animal of any kind. No wizards, witches or bullying. Am I the only one who is getting sick of that? I feel like every time I walk into the young adult section, I am bombarded with H

Royal Day Out: A From the Notebooks of a Middle School Princess e-short by Meg Cabot

Years ago, I saw the movie The Princess Diaries and, as I always do, I had to seek out the book. After reading The Princess Diaries, I fell in love with Mia and her world. I read all 10 of the books in the series, and as many of the companion books that I could find. So when Meg Cabot announced that an adult novel of Mia's wedding was to be published, I cheered louder than anyone could imagine! Once it was received, I could not read it fast enough. And now there was a new princess, and half-sister, in addition to Mia? Well, hello Olivia! I welcome you to Genovia and the family that I almost feel that I am a part of as well! I became a fan of Olivia's books as well ( From the Notebooks of a Middle School Princess) . Now, a e-short story will be released in early May before Olivia's second story comes out!  Note: If you have not read  Royal Wedding  yet and plan to, this short story (and my review) may provide spoilers! Like a soft, comfortable and familiar blanket, Roya

Missing Out

I'm the youngest of three. Both of my sisters have had kids - three to be exact. This makes my child the fourth grandchild to be born into my side of the family and the first on my HTB's side. What this means is that my parents are over it. O-v-e-r. I-t. With the first grandchild, my parents were not involved until after her birth. None of us were. She was completely cut off from us. But when she was born my parents took her in where she lives to this day. When the second and third grandchildren were born, there were quite a few complications, but the novelty of the first grandson was strong. Now? My parents have a 13-year-old they are taking care of and they just don't have the time for me. I asked my mom if she would help me in the delivery room and she replied "we'll see" which we all know still stands for a no after all these years. On my HTB's side? His mom passed away when he was young and his dad is overseas. Where does that leave me? Wishing
