Missing In Flight - Audrey J. Cole || Review

 

From USA Today bestselling author Audrey J. Cole comes a harrowing thriller about a woman faced with the unthinkable, when her infant goes missing aboard a plane to New York.

Rushing back to her seat, Makayla Rossi is relieved that all’s still quiet. But when she checks on her sleeping baby, relief morphs into fear. The bassinet is empty. 

 Liam is gone. 

 It was a long flight from Anchorage to New York, and with every flight attendant busy, Makayla reluctantly ran to the restroom, asking a seat neighbor to watch her son. She stepped away for just a few minutes. Yet at thirty thousand feet, he still vanished.

 Passengers and crew scour the plane to no avail, and since no one recalls seeing her with a baby, suspicions begin to mount about Makayla’s mental state. She’s certain this is nothing like her mother’s on-air memory meltdown. If only Jack, her husband, were there. He would believe her. A high-profile banker featured in Forbes, maybe he could even help. 

 But Makayla is squarely on her own. And she’ll have to think fast in order to find her son—before it’s too late.

The Cheap Dates Club || Lottie Brook || Netgalley Review

 

Two broke strangers.
Two broken hearts.
Two happily-ever-afters for the price of one?
Isla and Leigh are starting to think love is not worth it.

 Until they both see an ad in the gazette for a new dating service, which vows to help skint singles ‘find love for free’ while giving back to the community. The dates on offer range from the classic meet cute (dog walking) to the less-than-cute (litter picking)… but when Isla is matched with Leigh, she’s surprised by how quickly sparks begin to fly. 

 Being a cheap date is nothing to be ashamed of. But will the price of Leigh’s past heartbreak – or a suave rival offering Isla a more lavish lifestyle – keep them apart? Sometimes, even low-cost romance is high stakes…
