“I'm always on the lookout for unique settings in my mystery books. Salt Water Blood blends Polynesian culture with a compelling missing-person case in a race against time. The author creates great characters and skilfully weaves in the ripple effect of generational trauma. Great read! ”

“Blood, Sweat, and Tears is a fascinating introduction to the social and historical significance of bodily fluids and the stigma surrounding them, both past and present. If you love medical history, this book is for you! Be sure to pick up a physical copy, too. It includes some truly fascinating and downright wild images! ”

“Fun story about a king who wanted all his siblings (the other seasons) to celebrate his birthday; however, they learn that it is not a good idea! I feel it is a good lesson about the importance of having the four seasons within a whimsical story. I would read this story in the middle of winter to remind us that we do not want spring, summer, and autumn now. Good for all ages. ”

“What if there was an intense girl with a dead mom who was a combo of Anne Rice and Stephanie Meyer, who wrote about sapphic vampires? What if there was also a hot, competent lesbian who had a complicated history with her? What if their mutual friend died an extremely gruesome death and the intense girl and the lesbian’s brother/former boyfriend of the mutual friend were some of the only suspects? It might make for a fun mystery with some nice, campy twists. I enjoyed the changing POVs...”

“Imagine Yellowstone and the white walkers from Game Of Thrones had a baby... throw in a hot and broody cowboy, a missing sister, and a strong af FMC and you have a recipe for glory! ”
