Angel's New Friends“Angel’s New Friends” is a tale narrated with delicacy and, sometimes, with humour. The little readers will like reading and re-reading the story of Angel and her adventures. They will be encouraged to look beyond the appearances, to assume some little risks, to bravely face new experiences and to friendly accept any other people. Beautiful illustrations, by artist Gail Balga, accompany all of the pages. They enrich the tale with clear, skilled traits and bright colors. “Angel’s New Friends” is a delightful and likable book, that 3-5 old children will love, and repeatedly listen and look at. But that older children also will pick and read with pleasure. Gianfranco Cazzaro CaribooksSqueaky SquirrelSusan K. Droney's story has sweetness and innocence, as well as a wisdom that the best children's books have. You might think from the title that this is another story of someone who is different, gets teased, then learns it's all right to be yourself. While such stories are classic and worthy, Squeaky's insecurities about his voice are wisely portrayed as just a part of his childhood fears and his awkwardness as he begins to engage with the larger world beyond his own comfortable nest and family. Did I mention Gail Balga's enchanting illustrations? They are charming and delightful. Share this precious story with someone you love. My Shelf.com Reviewer: Kristin JohnsonBroken Promises: A New Beginning"Ms. Droney writes of abuse and victimization with passion and a seeming understanding. While it contains romantic elements, BROKEN PROMISES is a mainstream story, a story of healing and hard-won wisdom." ~ Affaire de Coeur,"Susan K. Droney seems to have an insight into abuse and victimization. The heroine's progression from victim to victor is painful and long in coming, but she finally triumphs. " ~ Painted Rock ReviewsTwisted LivesTWISTED LIVES has everything...the plot is good, the characters well developed, a nasty villain, and a love story that fits in with the plot. There is also an ending that will surprise the reader. Reviewed by: Hattie Boyd - Scribes World ReviewsTWISTED LIVES provides an example of the tangled webs we weave...a gratifying tale of evil and its twisted effects. Cindy Penn Senior Editor/Web Wizard Word Weaving: essential elements for all text weavers www.wordweaving.comThe StalkerRare Find “The Stalker is a crafty thriller that takes the reader into the mind of a mentally unstable madman and the effect his actions have on the people who are unfortunate enough to be in his life. The plot will draw you in and hold you; it will scare you and make you think who might be watching you as you wait and watch for Jeremy Talbot’s next move. Nicely done.“ Sandy McCann, ReviewerOver The EdgeBrant Evans has Cedar Pines under his very heavy policeman's thumb. His wife Janna controls the social and political levers of town with her money. The two of them work hard to ruin the lives of anyone they don't like, or anyone who crosses they own purposes. Maggie Allen is caught up in their web of hate as are the other citizens of the small Pennsylvania town. Their lives twisted by lies and conniving. Will Maggie's threat that they would one day cross the wrong person come true? Will Maggie be that person? Brant has special plans for Maggie. Plans that include arrest, imprisonment, and ruin. When Janna learns the truth about her husband, will she still support him?All good questions and I think you'll like Susan Droney's answers.Reviewed by Wanda C. KeeseyHearts on FireHearts on Fire, is a heart warming and charming tale of four women who have loved, lost and found themselves in a place to love again. The romance between the couples is hot, steamy and incredibly heartfelt. I thought this was a fabulous story that showed the different aspects of relationships, in various stages of development and portrayed them in such a true to life manner that you couldn’t help but love them all. Ms. Droney has a style of writing that’s smooth, compelling, classy, and leaves the reader feeling satisfied. Reviewed by: Tammy Fallen Angel ReviewsCabin FeverMs. Droney really packs a punch with this short, sizzling read. Kayla’s a woman who knows her own heart and desires and she wants Lucas. The dialogue between them is easy and realistic and you’ll definitely be able to understand why they’re attracted to each other. Reviewed by: Trang Black Just Erotic Romance Reviews
