City of Windows was one of my favorite crime thriller last year and with Under Pressure, i could feel the pressure of keeping up with the hype and my enjoyment for the series.
I can only say that there's no pressure at all because i am just in love with Dr Lucas Page and his character. Somehow, the author managed to make him even more appealing and interesting, more like a superman and indestructible , especially in a certain scene that made me think at Robocop actually :))
Same great writing that keeps you entangled in the pages of this fast paced, suspenseful , twisted thriller that many readers will enjoy for sure.
I can't wait to see what Pobi lays up next for Lucas and his eccentric personality.

I'm sure i'm not the only one when i say that i pick up a book just because the description was so tempting and was hopeful for a great time altogether, but i was so lost while reading this book.
There are characters that i liked and the writing is very good, but i couldn't get into the story at all.
I was confused because of the then and now timeframe and so many things that i wanted to add up, to make more sense so i can put the pieces of the puzzle together , but it was just hard to do so.
And i hate when i have to put a book down and pick it up at a later time just because maybe that time i will see everything with other eyes , but that's not the case at all.
Maybe other people will enjoy it more, unfortunately it wasn't for me.
Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy through NetGalley.

A real page turner indeed.
A hot, protective and invested detective, a stubborn but strong and lovely heroine, add some wild animals and the rescue mission full of suspense and dangerous situation, and you've got the perfect recipe for a romantic suspense and a wildlife plot that i haven't had the chance to read much.
Apart from the great writing that kept me invested at all times, the emotions and feelings where felt on the page with each interaction and mindful monologue. Real chemistry? Maybe not so much but that hasn't deter me to really enjoy this well deserved happily ever after that my romantic heart needs so much every now and then.

I was looking foreword to read this book because i've heard so many great things about the other books by the author and i must admit that it really deserves all the hype. I do admit that i'm not a big fan of cartoonish covers and i went in blind and a bit sceptic of the story but i was engrossed in it in seconds.
It's beautifully written, smart, witty and reliable characters that are just starting they journey of life and the decisions they have to take for their future are not the easies ones but i love how the author managed to project all the insecurities and fears of each one of them and how i got to get more close to their love story with each beat of the music played in the background.
It is my first book by the author but won't be my last and i highly recommend it to all the romance lovers.

I will start with saying that this book was so good and unexpected in so many ways.
It's great written and the characters are so well fleshed that i want to be her friend in real life. As for the villain in the story, the author managed to trick me into liking him a lot, without even knowing because his way of doing things and the psychological level games he played are really great and challenging on all levels that made it hard not to fall for it.
What i didn't like? The cover! I just can't stand the cartoonish ones and more so because i know that many readers like me will judge a book by its cover and it's a shame it this story goes not chosen because of that small but decisive element.

The wish list is a laugh out loud , fun and light read , perfect for the lazy sunday afternoon.
The main character is a librarian that has to make a wish list for how the perfect man would look like and , surprise! She actually finds someone very similar but is he really The One?
There's a big mixed cast of characters here and each one adds something good to the overall story, from her half sisters to her step mother and let's not forget Marmelade, her cat.
If you are looking for a light, fun and fast romantic story, this one is definitely for you.

This is my first book by the author but won’t be the last because I need to know more about the lawyer and his traveling hate .
The story was suspenseful and intriguing because there aren’t many books that I’ve read where the main character, especially a man , gives so much thought and interest to what his lovely partner wants and deserves.
He is really putting in balance his job and what that entails with his future along Grace.
Apart from some minor repetitions, this was a really great story that I highly recommend especially after reading the author’s note.

Art&Soul is a wonderful debut novel with two flawed characters and a beautiful slow-burn romance.
I always love a creative mind and when I read the blurb for this story I knew I had to know more about Charlie and Becky.
Firstly, the setting of the story is here, in the UK, and that’s a fresh point of view because it’s a beautiful country that needs more contemporary stories out in the world.
It’s a very well written book, with an unexpected mix of characters and jobs description, full of witty banter and interactions, so many inner monologues and a slow burn romance that takes its time to become perfect.
I enjoyed the growing up moments, the realisation of what they want for their future and the acceptance of everything around them.
If you enjoy a good, uplifting story, this book is definitely a great choice.

After seeing this series around so much I thought it’s time to read it and know for myself why it’s so hyped.
I enjoyed it much more than I expected and, although there were many predictable moments for me and the ending is quite satisfying, it did left me wanting more and I’ll definitely read the next books in the series very soon.
