The Waitress by Nina Manning

Nina Manning’s newest book is out now. The Waitress is the story of Kit who is a waitress with a lot of secrets. Thank you to Rachel's Random Resources for including me in this book tour! Kit has secrets she hopes will stay secrets. After she wins a fabulous prize she is hesitant and does not believe her luck. Are her instincts right? This dual timeline POV story is very engaging. I wanted to keep reading to uncover the clues from the present to find out what secrets Kit is hiding from her past. The descriptive writing made me feel like I was in the book and it was easy to picture the scenes. I've read Nina Manning's earlier books and really like her writing and characters.

The Librarian Spy by Madeline Martin

Image
Happy pub day to  The Librarian Spy ! Thanks to Hanover Square Press, I'm sharing this wonderful book with you. Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres, especially WWII historical fiction. During WWII, librarians became spies and this is their story. About the book: Ava thought her job as a librarian at the Library of Congress would mean a quiet, routine existence. But an unexpected offer from the US military has brought her to Lisbon with a new mission: posing as a librarian while working undercover as a spy gathering intelligence. Meanwhile, in occupied France, Elaine has begun an apprenticeship at a printing press run by members of the Resistance. It’s a job usually reserved for men, but in the war, those rules have been forgotten. Yet she knows that the Nazis are searching for the press and its printer in order to silence them. As the battle in Europe rages, Ava and Elaine find themselves connecting through coded messages and discovering hope in the face of w...

The Cerberus Affair by Charlotte Valentine

Image
Welcome to my first tour for KatieandBreyPA Tours! The Cerberus Affair is Charlotte Valentine's debut book and it is thrilling! It is about an ex-investigative journalist, Catherine Preston and her journey to seek justice for her friend. Catherine receives an email from her friend at the same time she finds out he is dead. The email shows that he was on the trail of corruption and was afraid for his life. In Greek mythology, Cerberus is a three headed guard dog of the Underworld. His job was to keep the dead from leaving. Interesting tidbit to set the tone for the book :) Catherine immediately pulls you into the story. High power people and big money corporations can spell trouble. She picks up the investigation her friend gave her and drawn into a dangerous world. There is a soft side to Catherine as the story is not all about the investigation. Catherine does not have a good history with men but her friends are determined to turn that around. When she meets someone that she star...
