Double Take by Kendall Talbot

I so was cheering for Jack and company to get a step ahead considering that only one of them ever really had been able to do so--based on their lives so far, it was clear that it was going to take more than one heist to provide Jack with the luck he so desperately needed. It just so happened that he had a solid plan until one little kink started causing issues that unraveled the whole plan for over a decade; however, Jack's recovery was all he deserved and more! Check this book out if you want to read a solid mystery with a feel-good ending!

Sweet Water Ranch: Cowboys Don't Marry Their Best Friend by Jessie Gussman

Solid comedic romance that makes you go along for the ride! Seeing the close friendship that our two main characters have leaves you wondering what will happen, if anything, between them. You soon discover throughout the plot, that one character has always given more than the other and is much more aware of the hoped-for changes in the relationship--you have to hope that both characters will soon be on the same page even though some of the highly-amusing things that happen only exist because of their lack of communication! I want to know more about their story about halfway through the book! Seeing the dynamics of their families reminds me of why this dynamic is such a huge part of who we become and who we trust as adults--it takes a little while for Ames to realize what was most important to her. Her realization started pushing other family members in the same direction.

The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen

A crime story that becomes a romance with a running thread of justice... When this story started rolling, I was not prepared for what was about to happen! Several of our primary characters appeared to truly hate each other and everybody knew it! As we move along, it appears that an arranged marriage is going to get in the way of the love story; however, by the halfway point, I was more than pleasantly surprised. Once again, communication becomes a big issue between the genders and led to more than one miscommunication and misstep. In the end, we see some true happiness on Frankie's part, and we also have been shown a model of a really strong woman. Check out her growth throughout the story!

The Outsider by Stephen King

I hadn't revisited a King book in a while (my favorite author since I was 14), and I decided to give The Outsider a whirl based on a common "Want to Read" recommendation with a friend on Goodreads. per Let me tell you--I wasn't disappointed! From the opening page to the last one, I was hooked. Starting with a murder mystery where the puzzle pieces eventually fell completely apart had me turning each page as quickly as possible (to the turn of 560 pages in 6 days while working full-time). The worst part--I wanted the pieces to fall apart because the good person inside of me just couldn't be satisfied with the person they had stacked up against. Every twist and every turn left you wanting justice for each of the victims--and they were all victims--until you knew you needed the crew to find the outsider that was creating all of this chaos. Even along the journey, more people were lost that only had good intentions. Pick this book up to go along for the ride an...
