Scrooge You Nikki Lynn Barrett


   
 
Description:

Scrooge You! was originally written and released in December 2015. It has since been expanded and rewritten to fit into the Cinnamon Bay World. 


Sasha’s tired of being judged by the crimes her father has committed in the past. So why is it so hard for her not to judge the once popular guy in high school who’s now a rising star?

As an adolescent, Kevin Wright felt invisible. Now as a rising star, Kevin’s no longer invisible, thanks to the claims of him being a Scrooge by his ex-girlfriend. His reputation is on the line, just in time for him to return home to Cinnamom Bay for his little sister’s Christmastime wedding.

Sahsa Moretti is one bad day away from losing it all. She’s trying to survive while taking care of her ailing ex-con father. She’s never been able to fit in, and while she has big dreams, until she can figure out how to get her father into the right place, there’s not much she can do. She’s stuck in a rut, and a chance encounter just might change things.

Kevin can’t figure out why Sasha’s so cold toward him. Sasha can’t figure out why Kevin keeps hanging around. When she gets an offer she can’t easily refuse, how will the future play out with her inevitable growing feelings Kevin?


My Review:
I liked Cinnamon Bay so I was excited to read this book. I liked Sasha she was strong willed and really would stop at nothing to help her dad she has a protective wall up around her because of things that were beyond her control and while she was slow to let people in once you were in her inner circle she would do anything for you, she cared and loved deeply. I was not a huge fan of Kevin I found him for the most part of the book a bit to pushy and I was just over it, he did have a big heart and cared for those close to him. I really like Arlene she I want to know her story she was so good to Sasha and she was one of the kindest people in the book. I did like this group of friends they were a fun group to read about. Overall  this book was a fun read! There is adult content in this book so it may not be suitable for all readers.

Everyone's a Critic Nikki Lynn Barrett



  Description:
She’s a single mother struggling with abandonment. He’s a travel writer trying to get past a traumatic, isolated childhood.

Laura Feldmen never thought this would be her: a single mother at nearly twenty-seven. A former bully, Laura made people’s lives miserable. Now that the tables have turned, she finds out who her real friends are. Imagine her surprise when the people who support her are the ones she used to torment. Her father has given her an ultimatum: she has a year to find herself and not attach herself to imperfect men while raising her infant daughter.

Cooper Dawson comes to Cinnamon Bay on a mission. A travel writer, he’s eager to visit the beachside small town. His dream job is just within reach, but that changes when he meets Laura and recognizes something in her that he understands all too well.

Cooper’s the kind of guy Laura would have picked on before. Now she’s searching for redemption while he longs for a way to find his place in the world. Is it possible for two opposites to find healing together?

My Review:
I feel like this author gets deep in emotions and then drags them out of your heart as you are reading and that was very much the case with this book. I felt so many emotions while reading this. I Liked Laura a lot she wanted to do right by her daughter and those people she hurt. Cooper had a rough go at things early in life and his story is so powerful, he was such an amazing read. This book was very good and I could not put it down. This book does have adult situations and may not be suitable for all ages. I will say the only thing I did not like was the end, I was left with so many questions. But if you know this author you know she is not done with a character and I am sure we will see more of Cooper and Laura. Also I loved Julian he's got such a big heart and I can't wait for his story.
