MY THOUGHTS AND BOOK REVIEW 

"My Heart Is In Venice" by Helga Jensen is a delightful rom-com that transports readers to the enchanting canals and picturesque landscapes of Venice, weaving together a heartwarming tale of love, self-discovery, and the magic of new beginnings.

The story revolves around the charming and relatable protagonist, Emma, who finds herself at a crossroads in life. Tired of the monotony of her routine and the predictability of her relationships, Emma decides to embark on a spontaneous journey to Venice, a city known for its timeless beauty and romantic ambiance. Little does she know that this impulsive trip will become the catalyst for a series of comical and heartwarming events that will change the course of her life.

Helga Jensen skillfully blends humor and emotion, creating a narrative that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Emma's character is well-developed, and readers will find themselves rooting for her as she navigates the labyrinthine streets of Venice and, metaphorically, the complexities of her own heart. The supporting cast adds depth to the story, with quirky locals, unexpected friendships, and a dash of romance that keeps the plot engaging and dynamic.

One of the strengths of "My Heart Is In Venice" is Jensen's vivid and evocative descriptions of the city. The author brings Venice to life with rich details, making it not just a backdrop but a character in itself. The sights, sounds, and aromas of the city are so vividly portrayed that readers may feel transported to the cobblestone streets and gondola-filled canals alongside Emma.

The romantic elements in the story are tender and sweet, capturing the essence of a rom-com. However, what sets this novel apart is its emphasis on self-discovery and personal growth. Emma's journey is not just about finding love but also about finding herself. The themes of empowerment and embracing life's uncertainties resonate strongly, making it a relatable and inspiring read for women of all ages.

"My Heart Is In Venice" is a lighthearted and uplifting novel that balances humor, romance, and self-discovery. Helga Jensen's writing style is engaging, and her ability to transport readers to the heart of Venice adds an extra layer of charm to the story. This book is a perfect choice for those seeking a feel-good read with a touch of wanderlust and a strong dose of heart.

Thanks to Rachel's Random Resources and Hera Books for an advance copy for my honest review.

BOOK ON TOUR #AFTER PEARL #HISTORICAL CRIME FICTION #SANTA FE WRITERS PROJECT PUBLISHERS #BOOK REVIEW #STEPHEN G EOANNOU

  MY THOUGHTS AND REVIEW After Pearl is a captivating historical mystery set in 1942, during the turbulent months following the attack on Pearl Harbor. The novel follows Nicholas Bishop, an alcoholic private investigator and shell-shocked WWI veteran, who wakes up in a seedy hotel room with a hangover, a foggy memory, and two bullets missing from his revolver.

As he stumbles through a haze of forgotten days, Bishop—assisted by the sharp and capable Gia Alessi, a loyal sidekick who may or may not still be on his payroll—dives into a web of deceit and danger. His investigation leads him through Buffalo’s underworld, rubbing shoulders with crooked politicians, high-society elites, and an underground group of American Nazis. All the while, he’s haunted by flashbacks from the Great War and shadowed by a one-eyed dog named Jake. The pacing is tight and energetic. The mystery unfolds gradually but never drag...
