  • The Ending Millie Deserves

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    I have really enjoyed Freida McFadden’s Housemaid series, and I couldn’t wait to see how Millie’s story ended in The Housemaid is Watching. It did NOT disappoint!

    It starts a few years later. Millie and Enzo are happily married with two children, and they have decided to buy a house outside the city so their children can have room to run and play.

    When they finally find their dream home, they can’t believe their luck. They get a home they can barely afford, though it’s much less than the asking price. It needs some work, but they aren’t afraid of some hard work.

    Then, they meet the neighbors. First, they meet the Lowell’s, a couple who invited them over for dinner right away. Though they don’t have children, they seem friendly enough. They even have a maid (though she gives Millie a strange feeling).

    The other neighbor is harder to meet. They see her watching them through the window, but eventually meet her at the bus stop with their children. She warns them about their neighbors. A young boy vanished years ago.

    Millie isn’t sure what is going on, especially when her husband starts working with the Lowells and going out late at night. Her son starts acting strangely. Her entire family seems to be falling apart. Isn’t her new house supposed to be good for her family?

    As the book continues, more twists and turns arise, and readers will have NO idea what is going to happen next. I loved every moment of this book, and you will too!

  • Can You Really Trust Your In-Laws? (and Your Husband)?

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    Chelsea was having a rough go of it when she met the man that she would eventually call her husband. He helped her get better mentally. He was also there for her when her father was sick and eventually died. He even supported her love of painting, letting her dream of going to art school while he took care of her and provided for her.

    Then, it was time for her to meet her in-laws. They lived off-the-grid in a remote location. You couldn’t even get there by car. You had to hike for four hours to get to their cabin.

    They went for a weekend, but then it didn’t look like it was going to be very easy to leave. Chelsea didn’t feel any warmth from his mom, while she enjoyed getting to know his father. However, the family tension quickly became unbearable, and all Chelsea wanted to do was to get back home.

    As Chelsea learns more about her new family, she uncovers some truths which really change everything!

    Just like the other books that I read by Caine, this one had me trying to figure out what was going to happen and then completely go in another direction! If you enjoyed any of his books, you should give this one a try!

  • Who Really Works on Cruise Ships?

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    Working on a luxury super yacht is a great way to earn a living, while also giving you a home (if you don’t have one)! In The Crew by J.M. Hewitt, Ella loves leaving her past behind, especially since she has found a great “family” each year she returns. The crew of the Ananke is her family.

    However, as she returns to work a year after a tragedy the previous summer, she isn’t so sure anymore. One of the deckhands died in a senseless accident. It was Ashley’s first year, and everyone loved her. She was a hard worker and would do anything to ensure the ship ran smoothly!

    But everything that Ashley told them was a lie. And if nobody knows you, can they get away with murder?

    As the crew gets ready to set sail again, nobody is really sure about what happened last summer.

    I never thought that I would love thrillers the way that I do. I really enjoy a good book that I can’t put down. I am going to add more Hewitt thrillers to my library.
