If you have never read a Nicola Sanders book, do yourself a favor and pick one up. Don’t Believe Her had so many twists and turns. I thought I was losing it for a minute. Ella has been searching for her best friend for 12 years. Carla ran away at 16 and suddenly reappears but something isn’t right. Do yourself a favor and read this book!

I really enjoyed this book. After the crappy week I had, Blind Bake was the book I didn’t know I needed. Maddie Baker is my kind of woman. She’s tough and a librarian. But there is always a guy not on the same page who can’t get their head out of you know where until forced. 

I’m ready for book two.
