SNOWFLAKES & FIRE ESCAPES by J.M. Darhower REVIEW

Even though Snowflakes & Fire Escapes is part of an anthology and not a full-length novel, it is a complete story. Nothing feels rushed or left out, definitely a top level read.

I fell for Cody and Gracie right away. The kind of love they have is pure and true and precious and rare. They have been best friends since birth. That friendship slowly turned to more and continued to grow. With both having been born into crime families, it doesn't take long for the real word to burst their bubble.

"It's easy to say, because it's true. You can break people apart, but you can't rob them of what's them. You'll never be without me, because I'll always be part of you, just like you're in me, Gracie. You're my soul, love."

I can't go into exactly why because it would give away too much of a spoiler, but this storyline is a different side from the usual organized crime novel. The point of view of mob kids growing up isn't a new thing, but the direction the plot takes is not the normal from stories I've read.

Snowflakes & Fire Escapes is an endearing read that I definitely recommend. I give it

All I can say is wow. This is a very short story (4,300 words), so it makes for a quick read. This is the second book from S.L. I’ve read. This definitely isn’t anything like Naturally, Charlie. As I’m writing this review, I can not stop smiling.

Let’s play a game....When I think about All I Want - A Tryst with a Twist, what are the first three words which come to mind? Let’s see...Wow. Hot. Oh my G-O-S-H!

Talk about a surprise. I loved this book! It’s short, so I can’t give too many details. I will say I was immediately drawn in and could not put the book down. You want to read this book just for the guarantee smile factor.
