THE PERFECT MOTHER

THE PERFECT MOTHER- A BOOK REVIEW

The Perfect Mother by Desiree Moodie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Book Review: The Perfect Mother by Desiree Moodie
Genre: Psychological Thriller | Publisher: Independent | Release: May 2025

How far would you go to uncover the truth about your child? In Desiree Moodie’s chilling novel The Perfect Mother, the facade of perfection cracks wide open, revealing the raw, obsessive grief that lurks beneath.

Dawn Harrington has spent nearly two decades haunted by the disappearance of her son. When she relocates to Meadowbrook for a second chance at life, she’s drawn to the charismatic and composed Evelyn Harper—the epitome of motherhood. But as their friendship deepens, Dawn senses something is off. Whispers of the past collide with the present, and the truth hides in the shadows of Evelyn’s curated perfection.

Moodie masterfully builds suspense, layering secrets, lies, and fragile identities. With sharp prose and unnerving emotional depth, The Perfect Mother explores the terrifying question: what happens when your version of the truth is the only thing keeping you alive?

This psychological thriller will keep you up at night, second-guessing everyone. Moodie’s book stakes its claim with an unforgettable blend of tension and heartbreak.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Her Reckless Night by Nichole Ruschelle – A Fiery Rivals-to-Lovers Romance
📖 Title: Her Reckless Night ✍️ Author: Nichole Ruschelle 📅 Published: May 12, 2025 📚 Series: Nurses of Rose Valley (Book 5)

🔥 One Night Was Supposed to Be Enough… Until It Wasn’t!
Nichole Ruschelle delivers another fast-paced, emotionally charged romance in Her Reckless Night, the fifth installment in the Nurses of Rose Valley series. If you love rivals-to-lovers, intense chemistry, and high-stakes hospital drama, this novella is a must-read!

💔 The Story
Allison Hayes and Preston Bardot are fierce competitors—two hospital executives constantly battling over staff, patients, and prestige. Their rivalry is legendary, but when Allison finds herself vulnerable, Preston is the one who steps in. One reckless night of passion was supposed to be just that—a fleeting moment. But as emotions run high and their undeniable attraction deepens, they realize that walking away might be the biggest risk of all.

💡 What Makes This Book Stand Out?
✅ Enemies-to-Lovers Tension: The push-and-pull dynamic between Allison and Preston is electric. Their fiery exchanges make every interaction thrilling and unpredictable.
✅ Fast-Paced & Addictive: At just 88 pages, this novella wastes no time. The romance unfolds quickly, making it a perfect binge-read.
✅ Emotional Depth: Beyond the passion, both characters grapple with personal struggles—Preston’s pressure to uphold his father’s legacy and Allison’s fight for professional recognition.

📌 Final Thoughts
Ruschelle crafts a steamy, high-stakes romance that will leave readers craving more. While some might wish for a longer story to explore the characters’ relationship in greater depth, the intensity and emotional payoff make Her Reckless Night a compelling read.

Just Another meet cute

Just Another Meet Cute by Jenn P. Nguyen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

✨ Just Another Meet Cute by Jenn P. Nguyen – Book Review for GetUrBook
Have you ever wished that life worked like a rom-com—complete with clumsy encounters, accidental rescues, and a whole lot of heart? Just Another Meet Cute by Jenn P. Nguyen delivers exactly that—but with a twist you won’t see coming.

When seventeen-year-old Nina Riley nearly falls off a mountain trail, her real-life disaster turns into the perfect “meet cute” when a stranger named Ian Nguyen comes to her rescue. But before she can even thank him, he disappears—leaving behind nothing but a name, a T-shirt, and a memory that refuses to fade. What follows is a charming teen sleuthing mission, as Nina tries to find Ian... only to discover his identical twin, Ryan.

What should have been the end of a sweet moment becomes the beginning of a tangled (and hilarious) web of mistaken identities, family secrets, and unexpected feelings. Nguyen’s storytelling sparkles with humor and warmth, giving us relatable characters and heartfelt moments that will make your heart flutter and your cheeks hurt from smiling.

If you love stories that blend witty banter, cultural identity, sibling dynamics, and a fresh take on YA romance, this one’s for you. Nina’s voice is instantly lovable, and the chemistry—oh, the chemistry—is swoon-worthy without ever feeling forced.

📚 Whether you're a teen rom-com fan or just in the mood for something light, feel-good, and full of personality, Just Another Meet Cute will brighten your TBR list.

💬 Favourite Quote:
"There are meet-cutes… and then there are meet-chaos. This was definitely the second."

🔖 Final Verdict:
✅ Wholesome
✅ Hilarious
✅ Romantically irresistible

THE GIRL OF MANY CROWNS

The Girl of Many Crowns: The true story of a runaway queen and a powerful knight who defy an empire by D.H. Morris
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

🕊️GetUrBook Review: The Girl of Many Crowns by D.H. Morris 🏰👑

Step into the shadowed corridors of 9th-century Francia, where alliances are forged with rings, and crowns are worn with both grace and defiance. The Girl of Many Crowns by D.H. Morris is not just historical fiction—it’s living, breathing history told through the eyes of one remarkable young woman.


At its heart is Princess Judith, daughter of King Charles the Bald, whose life unfolds like a medieval tapestry—woven with power, sacrifice, and forbidden love. From her youth as a pawn in royal diplomacy to her bold defiance of her father’s will, Judith’s journey is one of agency against the tide of empire. Forced into two strategic marriages and threatened with a third, Judith makes a choice that could cost her everything—choosing love over loyalty, passion over obedience.


D.H. Morris brings extraordinary depth to this story, not just as an author but as a descendant of Judith herself. That bloodline connection shows. The political nuance, religious fervor, and raw emotional undercurrents of the time are rendered with striking clarity. Baldwin “Iron Arm,” her protector and eventual love, becomes the emotional fulcrum of the novel—symbolizing hope in a world of calculated power plays.


What sets this book apart is its respect for historical truth without sacrificing narrative soul. The world is richly detailed—cathedrals rise, kingdoms fall, and women like Judith stand resilient in the chaos. Fans of The Pillars of the Earth or The Lady of the Rivers will find familiar depth here.


This is not just a novel. It’s a tribute—to courage, to rebellion, and to the quiet power of a woman who wore her many crowns not for glory, but for love.


⭐ Verdict: 5/5 for history lovers and readers craving an untold legend of love and legacy.
