Swans Book Review

Finally, we come to Bridger's story and I must admit, it was not what I was expecting.  Bridger Payne is a walking enigma that no one can quite figure out.  Even his best friend don't know the full story of where Bridger came from. In the Silo, Many want him but not can have him, well not the real him anyway. That's because Bridger lives with so much pain, a pain he has no reason to get rid of since the pain is what makes him survive. If you've read the books from the series you would know Bridger. He helped each and every one of my lovable guys to get their head out their arse and go after their women. You would think that a man that gives such good advice would also take his own preaching, but no such luck. Bridger more believes in happily ever after for everyone other than him. In his mind, he's too f*cked up to be helped and he's learned to accept that, but then Maggie was unexpectedly dumped in his care and Bridger found emotion he's neve...

This was a very simple book to read.  There was not really anything that had me excited about it, it was just a story about two men who needed each other to survive. Val Sokorvsky has a lot of anger inside of him.  After spending ten years as a sex slave in a Turkish brothel; he was saved and brought back home to England.  Feeling ashamed of what he had become, Val pushes everyone away but the one person who went through it all with him, Peter. Now Peter wants to leave him and Val would do anything to prevent that from happening. Peter Howard was on the same ship as Val when it was attached.  Unlike Val, who remembers everything, Peter was left with a big hole in his memory.  Now that both him and Val were rescued from the Brothel he does not know what exactly to do with himself. Whoring himself is all what he knows how to do.  He wants distance himself from Val to find himself, but Val convinces him to stay. Now years later, Peter still does n...

When your fiance is a drug addict and starts beating on you what do you do?  You stay and take the beating of course, since you're a doctor and believes that you can fix him.   When he forces drugs down your throat, do you knock him out and report his ass to the police, nooo.  You wait until he passes out, grab what you can and go into hiding.

I've heard a lot of good things about Miss Robyn Carr on Facebook and I just had to go and check out her books for myself.  When I arrived at my local bookstore, there were so many of her books to choose from I just did not know where to start, so obviously I chose to start from the beginning.  Let me start out by saying, there is something in the water in Virgin River. When suffering from grief, the thing that you will need the most is your family and friends around you to help you through your pain, but not Melinda Monroe. Wanting to start all over in a new environment the first thing she did was sell everything of importance, packed up everything that she needed and moved to the middle of nowhere where no one knows her and won't ask her uncomfortable questions.   How she came to the middle of no-where you may ask?  She answered an ad that said: Wanted : Midwife/nurse practitioner in Virgin River, population six hundred.  Make a difference ag...

I have to say this woman you either have to admire her bravery or call her completely stupid to jeopardize everything she worked so hard to do. Let’s say you find out that the man you married is a ruthless killer and might kill you at any point in time in the future do you accept your fate or escape.  You escape of course and run, far, far away and then you run even further than that; because it is really difficult to convict your husband seeing as he is a corrupt cop and his own boss is afraid of him. Now being free of this maniac would you risk your new lifestyle to save the life of someone who is on death row for crimes he did not commit?  If it was me logically it would be to keep my mouth shut and lay low but I might surprise myself as how Jeanine A.K.A Nina surprised herself. I have to say that this book was nicely naively good, because that was how Nina thought.  She thought that the good guys always win and that the bad guys always lose.  She...

The first book on my Caribbean week is The Garrison.  The writing style was very good and I found out that I had to read the dialect out loud for me to understand what the characters were saying.  Apparently I have to hear the words out loud to properly understand what Bambino and his gang was saying. The story follows a brief time in Rosewater Meadows was controlled by a gang which was run by Birdman with our main character, Bambino, as his right hand man.   Bambino, at eighteen, is the youngest person in the gang but also the coldest hearted.  He cares for nothing but making paper and killing when it suits him. A series of events that occurred to various people remarkable connect to Bambino who at the end died by the gangster code. “Yuh live by de gun, yuh die by de gun.” I did not like how the book ends.  Nobody got a happy ending, nobody; except maybe the rival gang who took over Rosewater Meadows where the only ones who got a happy endi...
