One Bad Thing by MK Hill published by Head Of Zeus

 








Hannah is an agony aunt known as the Queen of Hearts who works on a radio programme, but she’s just been offered her dream job working on a morning TV show. During her last radio broadcast, a caller (Diane) rings in with a tragic story about how her brother committed suicide because two people did something to him years before that he could never quite move on from. Hannah’s blood runs cold as the story seems very familiar to her, as she knows only too well what happened on that night.

Is Diane just sad, or a lonely woman looking for a friend, or does want revenge?

 I should start this review by saying that I know MK Hill when we worked together “back in the day” but this is an honest and open review.

This is the first book of MK Hill’s that I’ve read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There are several WTF moments, and when I got to the first one, I squealed with delight as I wasn’t expecting it at all – it was a complete surprise!

There are loads of twists and turns and just when you think you know what’s going on, the story flips again and another bombshell is thrown into the mix.

I initially really like Hannah (the agony aunt, wife and mother version) but I really didn’t like the younger, university and Cam version – she was a true Mean Girl!

I would definitely recommend this to all fans of psychological thrillers, and I have to say I’m extremely proud of my former colleague!

Maybe Next Christmas by Emma Heatherington

  Maybe Next Christmas" by Emma Heatherington was a delightful festive read that truly delivered in the end. While I found the beginning a little slow, once the story picked up, I was completely hooked and couldn’t put it down! Emma's storytelling and knack for building relatable, heartfelt characters shines through, making the journey worth it. The Christmas charm, along with themes of love and second chances, make this one feel as cozy as her other novels.
