Killer in High Heels, Gemma Halliday

Have you ever heard a sound that made you want to find out more about it, when you probably should have been going in the opposite direction? Well the first sound Maddie heard was her long lost father’s voice, and the second sound was a gun shot.
After the two sounds echo through Maddie’s ears she decides that she must go find her father in Las Vegas, and figure out what’s going on. Her mother won’t hear of it though, but being stubborn Maddie she goes anyway lying about where she is.
When she finally finds  him she finds out things that she probably never wanted to know and gets caught in the middle of smuggled fake high heels. Of course she did not go alone, her best friend, Dana and the receptionist at her step-father’s salon, Marco tag along. She tries to leave her sexy cop, Ramirez behind, but he was not about to let her be in harms way.
In the next book of her series Gemma Halliday takes the klutzy fake detective on an emotional family seeking journey and throws her in danger. This mystery once again makes me wonder why can’t I do everything in a pair of high heels? What Maddie does takes some extreme skill and luck.

Harry Potter v. Twilight…?

I don’t understand people who try to compare the two series and try to say that Stephanie Meyer is trying to be J.K. Rowling. The two series of books are totally different.

Harry Potter is all about a boy who faces death literally in the face at least once a year. He even managed to fake out death when he was baby. As he gets older has to continue facing his worst enemy with his best friends time after time.

So in short Harry Potter is kind of like an adventure story that the whole family can enjoy.

Twilight on the other hand is not about adventure at all. It is about love. Finding that one person in your life who you would die for or give your soul to.

What bothers me the most about people who try to compare them or say someone is copying someone is that they haven’t taken the time to read at least one of the series and so therefore should not have the opinion, and when they make an opinion to someone who has read both of them sound… well…. sound kind of stupid…

Pretty much the moral of what I’m trying to say is read the books and find out for yourself instead of getting it from somewhere else or making preconceived notions. I am a serious fan for both series and will be at every midnight showing I can go to for both of them.

Undercover in High Heels, Gemma Halliday

e

Soap operas have more drama off set than they do on set. When Maddie finds out that the main character on her favorite soap opera has been receiving life threatening letters she decides to take it upon herself to go undercover and figure it out. In order to do that she has to figure out a way to get on set. With her best friend she finds her way on set, but where ever Maddie goes murder follows, and soon there is a murder on set.

Maddie, her best friend, and her sexy cop boyfriend all find a way to be on the famous soap opera set to find out who the murder is.

This novel is an amazing follow up mystery to her first one following the cute clumsy blond around who can’t stay away from fast food. Of course read this mystery because they are addicting, really good, and they make you feel like you can do anything in a cute pair of heels.

Happy Fathers Day!!

Happy Fathers day to all the daddys out there!!!

I’m not going to sit here and claim that my dad and I have the perfect relationship because we don’t but we did always do something together and that would be HARRY POTTER!!! When the books came out Daddy and I decided we would read them together. As I got older we would read them seperately but trying to see who could finish them first. I don’t think that I ever won because he can spee read really well which I constitute as cheating hahahaha

The Harry Potter books are definitely some of my favorite J.K. Rowling did a fantastic job with writing these amazing novels that I spent many nights reading until 4 in the morning.

The movies became a family affair with my dad, my sister, and I. Though my sister just recently started reading the books because we told her the ever fantastic movies left out a lot of stuff.

People do a lot of different things with their parents and this just happens to be what I do with my dad, well that and bowling.

Have a fantastic fathers day with many more to come!
