Review Card & Book Review- Fighting For Hope By Katie Reus

He never expected someone like her…

Redemption Harbor security expert Bradford never thought he would fall in love, until Hope blew up his world. But after their wedding in Vegas, she disappeared—and he was shipped out to places unknown. He still doesn’t know why she ran, and he’s learned to live with that. The one thing he can’t accept is living without her. So when he discovers she’s in danger, he won’t be walking away this time.

Now he’s ready to burn down the world to keep her safe.

Investigative journalist Hope has never gotten over Bradford. But no matter how much she loves him, it never would have worked. She doesn’t know how to love herself, let alone someone else—and he deserves someone who can give him everything. Only now that a dangerous enemy is gunning for her, she can’t trust anyone except Bradford. As they race to stay alive and uncover the truth, she finds herself struggling to protect her heart against the biggest threat of all: her estranged husband.

About The Author

My Review

This is a passionate, suspenseful friends-to-lovers romance that perfectly balances emotional vulnerability with high-stakes danger. After a whirlwind Vegas marriage, Hope panics and runs from Bradford, afraid she can’t give him the love he deserves. When Bradford returns from his military assignment and learns that Hope’s father has passed away, he vows to be there for her—whether she wants him to or not.

Back in her hometown, Hope faces more than grief. Someone is targeting her and her late father’s home, and the danger quickly escalates. With Bradford and his Redemption Harbor Security team by her side, the two must navigate both external threats and the emotional tension that still burns between them.

Reus delivers a fast-paced, emotionally charged story filled with protective heroes, heartfelt second chances, and sizzling chemistry. Hope’s journey from fear to courage, and Bradford’s unwavering devotion, make this story deeply satisfying. With its perfect blend of romance and intrigue, Fighting for Hope is another compelling addition to the Redemption Harbor series.

The Barefoot Bookshop On The Beach By Rebecca Raisin

We need a bookseller for the Barefoot Bookshop on the Beach… apply here!

When Harper sees an ad for what must surely be the most idyllic job in the world, she’s almost tempted. But she can’t possibly leave her bookshop job in London, or her burgeoning career as a successful Bookstagram influencer… That is, until a casual remark about a debut author lands her in deep trouble.

So she applies. After all, now she’s got nothing to lose. Except maybe her heart, she realises, as she lands on the beautiful island of Ésperé in the Seychelles and finds herself seemingly surrounded by beautiful men. Including the hotel owner, moody but heartbreakingly-handsome Xavier.

But inter-staff relations are strictly forbidden. And Harper has enough on her plate, with a member of staff missing and a wily band of expats to contend with. Plus, she’s determined to make the bookshop and new start the success they deserve to be… Even if – under the blazing sunshine – the romance novel superfan in her can’t help but hope the boss of the hotel might not be quite the grump he seems…

For better or worse

About The Author

My Review

This book delivers an emotional, passionate finale to the Brides for Greek Brothers trilogy. Alessandra (Lexi) and Michail’s story begins with a fiery one-night stand that spirals into a web of secrets, betrayal, and unexpected love. When Alessandra, now pregnant, faces Michail across a conference table while reading the twisted conditions of his late father’s will, both are forced to confront not only their past encounter but also the legacies of pain and manipulation left behind by a cruel patriarch.

Grayson writes with intensity and emotional depth, peeling back the layers of two wounded souls who must learn to trust—and forgive. Michail’s fury and defensiveness hide a heart scarred by years of control, while Alessandra’s strength and compassion shine through as she refuses to let his anger break her.

The chemistry between them is explosive, the drama compelling, and the resolution deeply satisfying. Blending sensual tension with heartfelt redemption, Pregnant Behind the Veil is a passionate, beautifully written story about breaking cycles of pain and finding love in the most unexpected of places.
