This novel is the story of the chance relationship between Hazel and Cross. They meet at a restaurant expecting another person whom they have never met. Building on that moment is endearing.

From that meeting, they click and pursue a long-term one. However, Hazel has an ex-husband who has come out of the woodwork texting her, which causes emotional problems - she hyper-sensitive.

Review of PERSONAL JUSTICE

PERSONAL JUSTICE

DENNIS CARSTENS

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

When the readers finish this novel, they must decide if the end justifies the means. Could a Black Widow be living in St. Paul?

Marc Kadella, criminal lawyer extraordinaire, meets an old high school friend, sexy Mackenzie Lang, by chance. Their relationship blooms until Mrs. Sutherland's past catches up with her - her last two wealthy husbands died of heart attacks.

Mackenzie's last husband's daughter and the District Attorney believe she killed Bill Sutherland (drugs) and his son Bob (self-defense case). Kadella defends his friend through some legal challenges until the extensive trial - husband number two, Bill Sutherland's murder.

This legal mystery is a long, detailed, fast-paced novel with an ending that the reader may think wow and sympathize with Mackenzie. I did not. Either way, the reader will be content.

Reviewof WHERE THERE'S DOUBT


 


HERE THERE'S DOUBT

TERRY TYLER

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 


Nico and associates con people in this psychological thriller. The reader will be on the edge of their set, wanting and anticipating his demise.

This novel has many twists and turns, starting with Kate, a recent inheritance receiver. The individual stories explain why each woman falls for Nico's approach and why he thinks his play will win.

Everyone, including Nico, is hurt monetarily, mentally, or physically when the gig is up - some more than others. Not all who read this will be happy with the ending, which begins with another con.

If you want suspense, read this well-written novel, and you will be content.

Review of FINAL BATTLE




FINAL BATTLE

The Next Election Could Be the Last

DAVID HOROWITZ

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

'ORANGE MAN (Donald J. Trump) is BAD, and the Uniparty is GOOD,' is what I surmised from this well-written explanation of the USA's recent past. From 2015 to 2022, Mr. Horowitz gave details about the deep state and Democrat Party's shenanigans.

The reader may disagree with his findings but should research them. If you do not, you unthinkingly agree that Uniparty (Democrats and RINOs) in Washington is moving the country in the right direction, akin to socialism.

I will not take a side in the debate, but half of this book is End Notes and Index. He makes a good case for populism vs. what has been happening with the US Government for years.

This is an excellent quick, uncomplicated read. You, as a US citizen, should take note of its content.

Revie of AGING BACKWARDS




AGING BACKWARDS

 Miranda Esmonde-White

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Stretching 30 minutes daily is the key to Esmonde-White's guide to looking ten years younger. She explains how the body's muscles function and why moving all of them is essential to longevity.

Explaining the building blocks of life, the author educates the reader on why the body's bones and vital abilities are weakened by not moving each muscle. This non-function will decrease one's life.

Following the stretching exercises, which are explained and pictured at the end of the book, the reader can start this program immediately. The reader will start working out.

Review of HELLO AGAIN




HELLO AGAIN

In the Garden, Book 1

HEATHER TULLIS

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

To regain a lover you broke up with is the jest of HELLO AGAIN. Ten years earlier, Reese had left Piper hanging, she not knowing why he had forsaken her love.

Piper has a community garden project she and her cohorts want for their neighborhood. The land is owned by the Stone Corporation, where Reece Stone was the current president after his father's death.

When Piper brings the project to his office, sparks of familiarity commence for Reece. Piper goes into battle mode, which leads to an unlikely romance and turbulent social events. The games begin.

At the end of this story, the community has a garden and wrapped up romantically. Perfectly written romance novel with few gaps but with characters that will bring the reader to Book 2.
