Welcome!
I post book reviews as often as possible but at least once a week every Wednesday! I hope they help you to find some new books that you'll love as much as I did!
The SynopsisAt the age of twenty-four, Chantelle Rose has all a city girl can expect: a tiny bed-sit in South London, a lousy poorly-paid job, a tyrannical boss, and quite a few exes added to an ever-growing list. Desperate for change, she becomes an extra in a seedy crime film. When that leads to the opportunity of a lifetime – a role to play with a million dollars to win and seemingly nothing to lose – she accepts without thinking twice. After all, what could possibly go wrong? In any event, she´ll earn enough to buy her dream home, set up her own business and never worry about money again. And what about love? Two men have won her heart: Robbie – sultry, silent, mysterious; and Lionel – Hollywood heart-throb, charm, wealth, adventure. But who can she trust? Who is bent on scaring her away, and why? There seems to be more at stake than just her heart. Will a million dollars be worth it? MyReviewWhile this isn't my usual genre, I decided to give it a read as I thought the synopsis sounded great and I was intrigued to find out the answer to the question, 'who is bent on scaring her away, and why?' I'm so glad I did because the book was thoroughly enjoyable. Chantelle is funny and a likeable character who made me giggle at the beginning and who later on in the book, helped me to become involved in the mystery aspect. The story advanced at a good pace and I found myself happily turning the pages until I realised that I had ended up finishing it in a day! The fate of Chantelle is left on a bit of a cliffhanger and I'd love there to be a sequel so I can find out what will happen next in her life! Overall, I'd give A little of Chantelle Rose 4 out of 5. Even though it's a romance book and I don't have too much to compare it to, it was an enjoyable read and definitely deserving of four stars. I can imagine it being perfect to read on a sunny day in the garden or at the beach. It's funny and entertaining with a twisty mystery to boot.
