Review of Justice for Aleta (Police and Fire: Operation Alpha) (Bluegrass Bravery Book 2) by Deanndra Hall


JUSTICE FOR ALETA

When Kentucky State Police Trooper Jack Fletcher comes upon an accident scene, he never imagines it will be the catalyst for meeting the woman to bring him back to the land of the living. Aleta is the survivor of that horrific crash, and she made an impact on Jack, and vice versa. So when they later reconnect, fate must have been playing her hand.


I have mixed feelings about Justice for Aleta, hence the 3 stars. On one hand, the case is interesting and really carried the story. On the other, the relationship between Jack and Aleta just did not work for me. Neither character was particularly interesting or substantial, and their feelings for each other were insta-love at its worst. I guess I just didn't feel their connection to be nearly as strong as it could have been, as it should have been. I wanted that oh so passionate, soulmate kinda thing that develops organically and naturally, but what they had was nowhere near that. And don't get me started on the cheesy dialogue... Basically let's just say the romance part was flat, but the suspense part, the case, was the most interesting part of the story, and it allowed me to give this 3 stars as opposed to the 2 stars the relationship deserved.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
