BRAND NEW FROM LOUISE GUY COMES A TOTALLY HEART-WRENCHING, EMOTIONAL FAMILY DRAMA ABOUT AN UNFORGETTABLE DILEMMA, PERFECT FOR FANS OF JODI PICOULT AND EMMA ROBINSON. ❤️‍ 

In your own darkest hour, would you help a child in need?

When a teenage girl with haunted eyes enters Bec’s world, she stirs something in Bec she thought she’d buried long ago.

Still reeling from the loss of her husband, Bec is barely keeping her life together. But there’s something about Skye, motherless, wary and alone, that reaches into the shadows of Bec’s past. Twenty years ago, she was that lost girl, grieving her twin brother and cut off from her parents after one terrible night. Now, with the threat of those same parents re-entering her life, Bec makes an impulsive decision: she offers Skye food, shelter and the promise of help.

When Bec’s search for help brings Anna into their world, the connection feels almost fated. Anna has demons of her own. A past she’s fought to bury and a brother’s name she’s desperate to clear.

Both women believe they know what’s best for Skye. But as past and present collide, each will be forced to face truths they thought they’d left behind.

A completely heartbreaking family drama, like nothing you’ve ever read before! Order now!

The Girl With No Where To Go 
Written By Louise Guy
Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Boldwood Books and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I could bring you this review. 


WOW!! It has been a while since I had read a Louise Guy book and figured it was way overdue to read another one. A girl can only read so many psychological thrillers before she goes a little batty-ya know. However, I remembered Louise’s books were emotional but dang The Girl With Nowhere To Go pulled hard on my heart strings and had me in tears multiple times. A select few authors pull out that emotion in me and she is now on that list. 


The graphic artists that designed the book cover did a beautiful job on the cover of the book. 


Louise, you really know how to pull on my heart strings in your prologue!!! I was ready to jump into the book and give Jodi and big ol hug!!! Seriously!! One minute updating her will and the next minute we are hit with the news that she has Stage IV triple-negative breast cancer that has already spread to her liver and bones!! Here we are just meeting this character and we get this mind blowing uttering news!!! I was just speechless. What an incredible hook into your book!! 


I enjoyed reading about the art therapy classes as I totally agree that it can help process pain, rebuild confidence and reclaim parts of them that were lost. I know that painting has been a very therapeutic outlet for me since my Dad has passed. 


Louise intertwined so many powerful topics, issues and messages in this that many readers will gravitate towards. It is a beautifully written book with a lot of heart to it.

#BookReview #EternallyElectricTheMessageInMyMusic #DebbieGibson #GalleryBooks

 

In her long-awaited debut, Debbie Gibson reflects on the lessons she learned in her years as a young pop pioneer and on her hard-earned journey to embrace her authentic self, allowing her to lead the healthy, engaged—and electric!—life she does today.

Debbie Gibson was just sixteen when she released her multi-platinum debut album Out of the Blue and recorded “Foolish Beat” in 1988, making her the youngest person to ever write, produce, and perform a Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper.

A child actress who became the original pop princess, Debbie had full creative control over her music and, when that no longer aligned with a transitioning arts scene, she went on to star in Broadway’s Les MisérablesBeauty and the Beast, and Cabaret, as well as in the London production of Grease. Yet, for all the accolades and achievements, her success came at a high price.

Anxiety, depression, financial struggles, illness—Debbie writes candidly about these and other challenges, and how she ultimately redesigned her life to overcome them. This is the story of her not only surviving, but thriving: returning to her musical roots, releasing new albums, going back out on tour, and living the best version of her authentic self to remain…Eternally Electric!

Debbie Gibson is an award-winning singer-songwriter and Broadway actress who has amassed over sixteen million album sales worldwide and eleven US Top 40 singles. Now releasing new music through her own Stargirl Records label, she has also starred in several independent and TV movies, some of which she’s created and executive produced. A philanthropist involved in numerous charitable endeavors, Debbie wrote this memoir while touring to celebrate the thirty-fifth anniversary of her multi-platinum Electric Youth album and “Lost in Your Eyes” single simultaneously hitting #1 on the Billboard charts.

I had the honor of meeting Debbie Gibson at the Mix Tape Show at the Key Center 
In Buffalo, NY! It was my childhood dream come true! She was so sweet! 

Eternally Electric 
The Message In My Music
Written By Debbie Gibson 
Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews 

OMG when I heard that Debbie Gibson wrote a book based on her life entitled Eternally Electric The Message In My Music I HAD to put it on my TBR list!!! I have been a huge fan of her music and acting ever since she released Out of the Blue! My childhood dreams actually came true when I was able to meet her and the New Kids outside of the Key Center at the Mixtape Show in Buffalo, NY. I stood outside the buses not so patiently waiting for 12 hours to get a glimpse! Well my dreams came true. I got to meet her and her dog Joey and got pictures with her. Side note I also got to meet Joey Mac and Danny Wood. I was a very happy girlie that night!!! 


Getting back to the book….I loved the cover! She looked amazing in her green dress and heels! 


Debbie dedicated this book to her late Mom Diane Gibson who was such a proud Mother and Momager. Debbie included a picture of she and her Mother along with the dedication 


Many know that I am a huge New Kid on the Block fan and that I have been a Joey’s girl since I was 13. If you didn’t know that you do now. I was so excited that he wrote this forward for her as I know it meant a lot to her. However, I was thrown off on the first line when I saw Debbie Gibson naked! First thought was Joey you are happily married (and not to me lol). It was beautifully written. 


In Eternally Electric Debbie opens up and lets us into her world and shares with us more about who she is, who her parents were, shares who she has dated along her journey, etc.


Debbie includes some great pictures in her book.


My heart went out to her many times when she lost her parents. Just losing my Dad who was my best friend I can understand the pain she went through. Even more so the story behind finding out you had Lymes Disease and how you found out. 


Debbie, you are a fantastic writer and incredible storyteller! Thank you for opening up your world to us and letting us in. This is a must read for any fans of Debbie’s.

We Never Die

SECRETS of the AFTERLIFE

Written By Matt Fraser

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews 


We Never Die SECRETS of the AFTERLIFE by Matt Fraser says it best when the death of a loved one is the most challenging and emotional thing anyone can go through!! This was the perfect book that I could have read this weekend!! A year ago this weekend my life was flipped upside down when my best friend, biggest supporter, and confidant, my Dad passed away from an illness and I have not been the same! I found Matt and his reels on Facebook and started watching them and became fascinated by them. When I learned he wrote books you knew I had to read some of them. So, I grabbed this from the library and was so glad that I did. 


Matt wants to dedicate this book to all those grieving the loss of loved ones. He hopes that what we read helps us feel closer to the love in spirit. 


We Never Die opens with a beautifully written forward by Matt’s wife Alexa! Not only is it beautifully written but she is an amazing storyteller as well. She opens up about her experiences with death in her family. We the readers also get to read about Matt and Alexa’s first meeting which leads to their beautiful love story! Alexa seems like an incredible woman and she is so blessed to have found a great guy in Matt! From the reels I have seen they have an adorable family. 


This is a must read for anyone that has lost a loved one either a parent, spouse, grandparent, pet, best friend, etc. Matt shares so many stories and situations about loved ones passing. One of them is bound to pull on your heart strings and resonate with you. They did with me! 


What I was interested about learning seeing that my Dad just passed was the truth about Heaven, what happens when you die, where is heaven? He answers all those questions and more in this book. Oh and if you are wondering if you will see your pet on the other side he talks about that as well. 


He explains the signs that loved ones give you to know that they are around some I have seen are music that my Dad has played me (he knows I am a huge NSYNC and New Kid Fan so this Christmas Season he would play on my radio in the car Christmas Music from them), I have had dreams at night from him. I am a huge fan of Butterflies and he knew this before his death so whenever I see them now I know that is him paying me a visit. 


Matt not only talks about crossing over, but also life and the purpose of it, laws of attraction, and finding happiness. This book gets deep. 


Matt educates his readers and opens up our eyes to so much about what is on the other side. He is a godsend to those who are grieving and just lost someone looking for answers. This is a must read for anyone questioning what really happens when you pass.
