Review: Let Me In

Let Me In by Carolyn Faulkner

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



The story sort of starts in the middle and as it unfolds we start to find out all the history that has gone on before. We realize that Miranda crazes a certain relationship but at the same time she fears it as well. She has held a part of herself back from Mace. But Mace really cares for her and knows that it's time to push her and we see the strength that both of them are made of.

Review: Black John

Black John by Amy Lane

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



This story is not a fast and easy read. I found myself taking a break and reading something lighter but it was so worth the journey to the end. This is story of the "anti-heroes" turning out to be the good guys.

John is the kind of character you expect to be the villain in the story. But as his story unfolds both through both present action and flashbacks you realize what has shaped him, how much he's actually overcome, his strength, and what a real good guy he is deep down.

Galen to has his own battles to fight and while John gets him started on his own path to recovery and in some ways might be his inspiration to want to recover the journey really needs to be his own. John has to accept that he can't do it for Galen. In the end Galen emerges as his own strong man so that he can be partner and not a dependent.

I also read the Bonus Epilogue from the author's web page. And while it isn't necessary it was still a short, sweet, and fun read that made a great wrap up.
